Chapter 437: Although the victory is real, the defeat is real

"Congratulations to the Great Khan, congratulations to the Great Khan, the Guiyi army has suffered such a heavy defeat in this battle, and it will not be able to recover in a few years.

The Khanate, on the other hand, could take the opportunity to take Ganzhou in one fell swoop, or even Suzhou. Even the Tang people could not affect the khanate's control of the land west of the river, but would take the initiative to make friends with the khanate.

It is believed that the khanate, under the leadership of the Great Khan, will definitely be able to restore its former glory and dominate the entire steppe. ”

Along the way, Ma Heimu has been chattering there, patting Yao Luo Ge Renmei's ass, regardless of what other people think of him.

Under Ma Heimu's compliment, Yao Luo Ge Renmei was also a little fluttering, as if it was really as the other party said.

No matter how you say it, Yao Luo Ge Renmei is also a young man, and it is easy to be proud.

Even when he returned to the outside of Ganzhou City and learned that the Guiyi Army had been defeated, even the Hassan Special Service, who had always been very cautious, couldn't help but compliment a few words.

Yao Luo Ge Renmei even praised Hassan's special service, saying more than once that he would reward the other party, and if the other party hadn't sent reinforcements to come, he might not have been able to win this big victory.

"Great Khan, the minister suggested sending someone to immediately recruit the Ganzhou Guiyi army." Hassan's agent asked.

"Well, as Hassan's agent said. If the defenders of the city could open the city and surrender, Ben Khan could spare them from dying. ”

Just as Hassan was about to send someone to persuade the surrender of Ganzhou City to the rebel army, a group of cavalry suddenly galloped from the south.

The Uighur cavalry on the periphery directly stopped these cavalry, but when they saw that these people were from the royal court, the cavalry blocking the way quickly let them go.

"Great Khan, it's not good!"

"Great Khan, it's not good!"

"What's the matter? The sky hasn't fallen! Ma Heimu reminded the special service.

Yao Luo Ge Renmei also frowned a little, but he didn't speak, but the soldiers who came to the front didn't care about this, and said incoherently, "Great Khan, the Tang army has attacked the royal court, and the royal court is in danger!" ”

"What?"

After listening to this, Yao Luo Ge Renmei stretched forward, with a look of surprise on her face, "How is it possible?" ”

"Great Khan, how dare the villain deceive the Great Khan. Tens of thousands of cavalry of the Tang army raided the royal court, defeated the royal court's khanate army, and surrounded the royal court. ”

"Great Khan! Sweat.... ”

Hearing that the royal court was besieged, Yao Luo Ge Renmei was immediately angry.

This frightened a lot of people, and under the busy work of everyone, it took a while for Yao Luo Ge Renmei to wake up quietly.

"Great Khan, are you alright?"

OK? It's no wonder if it's good!

"Withdraw, return to the royal court!" Yao Luo Ge Renmei gritted his teeth and said.

What can you do if you take Ganzhou? If the news of the attack on the royal court spreads, these armies will begin to stir.

And the importance of the royal court is not comparable to that of a Ganzhou city.

Now there are not many large armies around the royal court, and even fewer standing armies, so it is impossible to be the opponent of the Tang army at all. If the royal court is captured, these people will become rootless, even if they capture Ganzhou, what can they do?

Who would have thought that the Tang people would be so treacherous, taking advantage of the battle with the main force of the Guiyi Army on his side, he would directly lead the army to attack the royal court.

However, this is also a tactic that the Tang people are good at, in the early Tang Dynasty, both Li Jing and Su Dingfang used a partial division to break through the tooth tent of the Turkic Khan.

It's just that compared to that period, this time the Tang Army did not use a small army, who dares to say that tens of thousands of Tang troops are small troops?

The Uighur army outside Ganzhou did not know what was happening, but wondered why they had already defeated the Guiyi army and took the opportunity to take Ganzhou and occupy one of the four towns in Hexi.

But the Khan's dictation, even the two special agents Hassan and Maheimi did not object, and the people below could only honestly carry out the order even if they didn't understand it.

The Guiyi army in Ganzhou City went from hell to heaven at once, and thought that Ganzhou City was about to be breached, but they did not expect the Uighur army to retreat.

What's going on?

It was not until a few days later that the Ganzhou side learned the true situation, and it turned out that the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion, which was under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Court of Anxi, sent 20,000 elites to attack the Uighur royal court.

Although they only destroyed more than 10,000 enemies, they plundered more than 60,000 Uighur tribes, more than 60,000 horses of all kinds, and more than 100,000 cattle, sheep, and camels.

Even if the Tang army did not break through the Uighur royal court, these losses were enough to keep the Uighurs from recovering for several years.

In particular, in the pasture of Damaying Caotan, basically most of the war horses raised were looted by the Tang army, and the herdsmen in the territory were also taken away.

Without these experienced herders and those horses, it is rare for Damaying Grassland to regain its former prosperity without many years.

The abandonment of this important horse production area also caused problems in the supply of war horses to the Uighurs in Ganzhou. Although there is no shortage of war horses, the overall quality will also drop a lot.

If we look at it this way, in this battle of Ganzhou, the Uighurs and the Guiyi army were the losing side, the snipe and the clam that competed, and the Tang army was the fisherman.

Seeing this result, Yao Luo Ge Renmei directly vomited several mouthfuls of blood on the spot, and the whole person was in a coma for more than a day before being rescued.

While the Uighurs were silently licking their wounds, Liu Kui led a large army to escort a large number of booty back to the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion.

The seizure this time is too rich, and as for whether someone comes to rob it, there is no need to worry about it.

The Six Valleys would not be chaotic for the time being, and by the time the Uighurs returned, Liu Kui's army had already left the Uighur control area of Ganzhou.

Moreover, Liu Kui also asked the troops left behind by the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion to come and greet them, unless the Uighurs were willing to make a desperate bet.

However, for these seizures, the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion also had a headache.

With more than 60,000 horses, more than 100,000 cattle and sheep, camels, and tens of thousands of Uighurs, Liangzhou alone could not digest it. In particular, the Uighurs could not stay in Liangzhou, or even in the territory of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, which was a factor of instability and had to be dispersed and resettled in other areas.

"It's hard work, I didn't expect the Guiyi Army to be so useless."

Looking at Jiang Xiong, who was resting in the camp with a scar, Liu Kui patted the other party on the shoulder and signaled the other party not to get up.

With 4,000 cavalry and thousands of remnants of the Guiyi Army, the Uighur cavalry of the other side was tens of thousands of cavalry, Rao is Jiang Xiong's martial arts are strong, and he will inevitably have colors on his body.

After the defeat of the main force of the Guiyi army, it was fortunate that the Uighurs did not pursue his troops, otherwise there would have been more casualties.

"Dudu, the defeat of the Guiyi army was not expected to be carried out by the Uighurs, and there were thousands of them."

If it weren't for these thousands of heavy cavalry, Zhang Huaiding would not have been defeated so badly with the equipment obtained from the imperial court and armed with 5,000 elites.

Although his 5,000 elite cavalry were considered heavy cavalry, they were inferior to the Uighurs' mounted heavy cavalry in the charge.

This time, the Guiyi army was defeated, and Zhang Huaiding was blamed for underestimating the enemy, but he did not expect that the Ganzhou Uighurs had such a big killing weapon.

Liu Kui was also glad that he did not go to Ganzhou, otherwise even if he could defeat the Uighur army in the end, his army would have suffered a lot of losses under the heavy cavalry attack of the Uighurs.

"Heavy cavalry? I didn't expect the Hulcs to hide so deeply this time! "I want to talk about "Rebirth of Tang Zhongxing" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
