"Why didn't the people from Qiuzi come?"

Sitting together, Fu Gulin's face was a little displeased.

The people around looked at each other, and the last nobleman said, "Great Khan, Qiuzi came to report that there was an abnormal movement in Khotan, and they couldn't send troops here." ”

"This Pu Gusu is simply getting less and less interested in Ben Khan." Fu Gulin was a little unhappy, "Don't worry about them for now, according to the news of the front-line scouts, more than 10,000 people in the vanguard of the Tang Army have approached the shelter."

And the shelter to Sawadaji only takes eight days to travel, so let's talk about how to fight! ”

"How? Does the Great Khan know how many people there are in the Tang Army? Someone next to him immediately asked.

"I don't know the specifics, with the strength of the Tang Army's Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, there must be more than 100,000 troops. This dispatch may be around 100,000, but excluding the Zhongyun Department, the Tang army from the direction of Yizhou may be 70,000 or 80,000. Fu Gulin speculated.

"Even what? There are only 70,000 or 80,000 people in the direction of Yizhou, and it will not be affected. We have an army of more than 100,000 people, and we can defeat the Tang army from Yizhou in one go, and then occupy Zhongyunbu. "I don't know that the leader of the Wuhu tribe surnamed Jiu, who is powerful in the Tang Army, is a little underestimated.

Indeed, there are not many troops gathered in Xizhou this time.

The headquarters of Fugulin gathered 70,000 cavalry, 20,000 cavalry came from Yanqi's side, 50,000 cavalry from Jiu's Wuhu side, and 30,000 cavalry from Gelulu.

In total, 130,000 cavalry and 40,000 infantry.

With so many large armies, the tribal leaders of the nine surnamed Wuhu and Qarluq naturally felt that there was no need to be afraid.

"But there is also a Tang army on the side of Zhongyun's department, if all the army goes to meet the Tang army from Yizhou, what will Xizhou City do? This is where the royal court of my Western Uighurs is located. As soon as the words of the nine surnamed Wuhu fell, some generals among the Uighurs in Xizhou raised questions.

"Ben Khan's suggestion is to leave a part of the army for the defense of Xizhou and to escort grain and grass, the Tang people like to attack the grain routes, if our grain, grass, cattle and sheep are plundered by the Tang people, won't the army on the front line have to starve to death?"

Fu Gulin was still unwilling to use all his forces and gamble.

He didn't want to, and the people surnamed Wuhu and Ge Lulu naturally wouldn't force it, and they looked down on Fu Gulin in their hearts.

However, when they came this time, it was naturally because Fu Gulin promised them benefits, otherwise they would not have come thousands of miles away.

In the end, Fu Gulin left 30,000 cavalry in his headquarters to defend Xizhou and escort grain and grass, while the other 140,000 troops went to meet the Tang army.

Fu Gulin also had the idea of preserving his strength, so he sent the troops of the other three families to the front line.

However, this time against the Tang Army, he still fought in person!

This time it's a shame!

。。。。。。

Although the Western Regions in spring is not covered with grass, it should also be full of life, and there are herdsmen grazing everywhere.

But wherever the vanguard led by Wan Baichuan passed, even the oasis was rarely populated.

In the distance, there are still traces of habitation, but it is a mess, full of debris, and it is obvious that the people here have evacuated in a hurry.

However, when the army of thousands of rivers arrived here, they saw a scene that made people angry.

I saw that in the square of the town, in front of the temple that was supposed to persuade people to be kind, there were corpses hanging all over the place, all of them in rags and flesh and blood.

On closer inspection, the blood stains on these corpses had dried up and congealed into blood crusts.

Immediately, someone put these people down, and after some inspection, one of them came to Wan Baichuan and reported, "General Qiyu, he is a Han Chinese, and he was brutally killed!" ”

"General, these Uighurs are looking for death!" Hua Hong said angrily.

"They all say that they are looking for death, so let their heads stay on their heads for a while." Wan Baichuan glanced at these corpses, his expression was a little complicated, "Dig a pit and bury them." ”

As night was approaching, everyone had to rest in this place, and in a simple house, Wan Baichuan, Hua Hong, and three commanders were all here.

The farther west they went, the more nervous they felt.

"General, according to the investigation of this town, the inhabitants of this town may not be evacuated until a few days.

The corpses had only been dead for a few days, and it is possible that we would soon encounter an army of Uighurs. Hua Hong said.

"Intensify the reconnaissance, and from tomorrow onwards, send double the number of scouts to expand the search area, and make sure to find the location of the Uighurs."

Just as everyone was discussing countermeasures, a cavalry suddenly galloped outside, only to see a bloody scout fire commander come to everyone.

"General, we found a large number of Uighurs near Sawada Temple, and they were outnumbered, and six brothers died in their duties, and then they escaped!"

The fire commander felt his scalp tingle when he recalled the dense crowd of enemy troops, who had only a dozen or so men, but were pursued and killed by hundreds of Uighur cavalry.

"How many Uighurs are there?" Wan Baichuan asked.

"Back to the general, there are a lot of people, densely packed, at least tens of thousands." Because the enemy was densely packed, and they were being chased and killed, the fire chief couldn't see how many people there were, so he desperately killed back in order to rush back to report the news.

"Sawadaji? It is about a hundred miles from us, and according to a normal march, it is very likely that we will encounter this Uighur army the day after tomorrow. Hua Hong analyzed.

"General, is this possible for the main force of the Uighurs?" Another commander asked.

"It's hard to say the main force." Wan Baichuan shook his head, "It's possible that it's the vanguard of the Uighurs." What the hell is going on, when the time comes, will you be able to distinguish the truth from the fake?

Ordered to go down, sharpen the swords and guns for the general, and let the real swords and guns be done. ”

"Don't worry, the general, you're all waiting. It is said that the Right Shence Army is the elite of the forbidden army, they forgot, our Left Shence Army is not bad, we have been in Anxi for so many years, and it is time to make our reputation. ”

In this sortie, the Right Shence Army was not there, and the newly arrived Right Shenwei Army and the Right Shenji Battalion were not familiar with the Uighur warfare, so their Left Shence Army naturally had to take the lead.

It's just that the meaning of this sentence is a bit like the meaning of 'there is no tiger in the mountains, and the monkey is the king'.

So several people heard that something was wrong, and Hua Hong, who saw it, was also a little inexplicable, he didn't say the wrong thing.

Their Left Divine Weapon Army is not weaker than the Right Divine Strategy, even if it is not comparable to some of them, they will not admit it.

Early the next morning, before Wan Baichuan could order the army to continue westward, scouts came to report that the Uighurs had taken the initiative to kill them.

Hearing this news, Wan Baichuan was still a little surprised, did the Falcon be so bold this time? Actually took the initiative to come to the door?

"General, it doesn't seem to be the Uighurs of Western Prefecture!"

When Zuo Shence's army was assembled, Hua Hong noticed that something was wrong through the telescope.
