Chapter 28: Interception
"Yes!"
Soon, as the other soldiers left, Ashina Yifan was the only one left in the camp.
"Look, father, this battle to destroy the Tang Dynasty is the war between you and my father and son, you should be the Khan of my Great Turks, and that old guy in Jieli can compare with you!"
At the same time, as night fell, outside the city of Duhufu, the Turks had flooded the city, but the city was still barely supporting, and from time to time repelled the Turkic soldiers who had climbed to the city wall, revealing a trace of the edge of the city wall.
Ashina Helu stood outside the city with a gloomy face, at this time they were only an arrow away from the city wall, but they couldn't climb the city wall, this was a day since they attacked the whole city, if they waited until the sky was completely dark, then today's siege battle would be temporarily over, because it was impossible to climb such a high city wall in the dark.
"My lord, it's getting dark, and it seems that you can't take this city today, but after such a long battle, if it dawns tomorrow, you will definitely be able to break it!" Tong Luo Jisi said to Ashina Helu with an embarrassed face.
"Han people, they are really strong-willed!" Ashina Helu seemed to be responding to Tong Luo Jisi's words, but more like he was muttering to himself, and his gaze kept falling on the opposite wall.
"Did you see the Han Chinese official who commanded the battle on the city wall?"
"My subordinates did see it, according to the clothing level of the Han people, I am afraid that he is still a guy with a large official position, but he is a civil official, and it is already worthy of praise to be able to stand on the city wall, but it is not worth mentioning! Defending the city with civilian officials, the Han people have degenerated to such a situation, hahahaha. Tong Luo Si laughed mockingly when he heard this, but he didn't notice Ashina Helu's increasingly solemn eyes.
"It should be said that with the command of the civil officials alone, we can block our time for a day with five thousand troops, the Han people should definitely not be underestimated, with Luo Jisi, if you want to break through this city, you have to kill the Han people, tomorrow will be up to you, your soul devouring arrow!" Ashina Helu glanced at Tong Luo Jisi, and then drove his horse in the opposite direction.
"Order, withdraw troops!"
Seeing Ashina Helu's indifferent eyes, Tong Luo Jisi's heart suddenly struck, he knew that Ashina Helu at this time was on the verge of breaking out, and if he broke through this city tomorrow, I was afraid that all the living creatures in it would become something for him to vent his anger.
Brutal, cold, suspicious, and eternally self-centered, if it weren't for that, the current Jieli Khan should be him.
After conveying the order to Luo Jisi, he drove his horse and followed behind Ashina Helu, looking at his back, his eyes became extremely complicated.
With the departure of these two Turkic generals, the attacking Turkic soldiers also slowly retreated like a retreating tide, giving the capital city a short respite.
On the road to Yinchuan County.
The messengers sent by Li Jing were hurrying frantically, their eyes were already extremely dark, but this tiredness did not show in their bodies at all, only because they avoided the scattered ranks of the Turks from time to time, which still slowed down their time, causing them to travel for half a day, and it took them a whole day to arrive.
"My lord, there are thousands of Turkic soldiers in front of me, they are in a circle, as if they are encircling something, because the number of people is too dense, so I can't see what is inside, but the road has been completely blocked by them, if you want to pass, you can only rush hard."
"Wait and see." Wei Cheng looked at the twenty or so robes behind him, and his eyes all showed a tired look, and finally said helplessly, and then these two dozen people hid in the jungle next to the road, the jungle was very dense, and after hiding in the twenty or so people, they couldn't see any change at all, it was like a drop of water in the sea, and they disappeared without a trace.
"Report!" In the temporary tent of the Turks, Ashina Yifan had just sat down when two voices overlapping each other came in, and coincidentally, both voices seemed to be very urgent.
"Come in!" Ashina Yifan frowned, a bad feeling flashed in his heart, and he shouted outside the tent in a gloomy voice.
Just as his voice fell, two Turkic soldiers walked into the tent and knelt on one knee, one of them was the Turkic soldier who had gone to retrieve Hou Junlian.
"Why are you so flustered, what happened, Hou Junlian?" Ashina Yifan's face instantly became gloomy, and he asked.
"General, our troops are scattered, Hou Junhuan is imprisoned at the very edge of the camp again, and when he went down, he found that the soldiers guarding Hou Junhuan had all been killed, and Hou Junhuan ran away!"
"What do you say! He is the general of Helan Mountain, who locked him in the most marginal position, looking for death! Ashina Yifan's face was completely distorted, and he grabbed the collar of the Golden Eagle soldier, his eyes had turned red, like a fierce beast that chose people to devour.
"General, it's the order of Ashina Ga, after all, he is your partial general, so ......"
"Enough! Sooner or later, one day, I will kill him, and wait until the day my father becomes the Great Khan! Ashina Yifan pushed the Golden Eagle soldier in his hand to the ground, and shouted hoarsely.
"General, we have found the target you ordered before, but they are too strong for us to attack, so we came to ask the general to decide!"
Another Turkic soldier saw that Ashina Yifan didn't pay attention to his meaning at all, and he didn't wait for Ashina Yifan to ask a question, and after seeing him push the Golden Eagle soldier away, he hurriedly spoke.
"What do you say? Found it, really found it! Ashina Yifan could no longer care about the anger caused by Hou Junlian's escape, and a huge surprise suddenly appeared in his heart, which really responded to that sentence, the ups and downs of life are too fast.
"There is absolutely no mistake, there is a team of about a hundred people, and it has blocked the attack of thousands of our people, and being guarded by such elite soldiers must be a great man, but although we can't break through the defenses of those guards, we have blocked them there, and I ask the general to decide."
"A hundred soldiers, just block the attack of your thousands of people, there is only one team in Datang that can have such combat effectiveness, yes, it can't be wrong, pass the order, only bring weapons, rush over in the shortest possible time, I want to capture the queen of the Tang Dynasty alive!"
Ashina Yifan said in ecstasy, his analysis was very right, their army could be the vanguard of the elite, but the team of thousands of people was blocked by the team of a hundred people, and only the Tang Xuanjia Army could complete such a miracle.
