Chapter 262: The Sword Refers to the Turks
The hunt continued until dawn, and it was not until there was not a single Turk to be seen, and then the troops were withdrawn.
Back outside the city of Yizhou, I smelled the smell of meat from afar, mixed with the smell of fireworks.
Walking closer and seeing the general scene in front of him, Rao is Situ Changfeng has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he still feels bored in his heart.
Many soldiers couldn't help but vomit, and the slightly better ones were pale, and they turned their heads and didn't want to look.
I saw that outside Yizhou City at this time, the ground was also burning with flames, just like the legendary hell, burning on the earth.
It seems that God can't stand it, and a huge spring rain is falling overwhelmingly.
Everything burned out, and it happened to be too lazy to clean up the battlefield. Anyway, a batch of cattle and sheep was harvested, which can be regarded as making up for the loss.
This is also luck, the Turkic cattle and sheep were hoarded by the river downstream, where there happened to be no fire, a big war happened, and they did not retreat in time, and finally were intercepted by Luo Tong and Luo Huan with people.
"Thank you, Brother Xue, for coming to help!" After returning to the city, Situ Changfeng thanked Xue Rengui who came to help.
"Shame! Xue was worried that the Yumen Pass would be lost, so he didn't dare to send too many troops, so he only brought 5,000 cavalry, otherwise not only would the results be greater, but he would also be able to send troops to the Turks to retaliate. Xue Rengui said apologetically.
"Brother Xue, you can take the risk to come, it is already the greatest help, otherwise the Turks fought back desperately last night, and I am afraid that we will return in vain." Situ Changfeng comforted.
"After receiving the letter from Situ Junshou, the governor originally wanted to increase his troops, but he knew that Tuyuhun suddenly stationed troops on the border, so he didn't dare to move! In the lower exploration, the Turks attacked Yizhou, and there was no intention of dividing the troops, so the troops were dispatched. Xue Rengui explained.
"I see! It's a pity, if there are 20,000 more, these Turks will be difficult to run! Situ Changfeng sighed.
"What's next for the county guard?" Xue Rengui was very curious about the classmate in front of him who was a few years younger than him and used to be a Xuan-level. I really couldn't imagine that he would go so fast, not only was his official position higher than his own, but he also had good force at a glance last night.
"Next, repair for a few days and send troops to the Turks!" Situ Changfeng's eyes flashed.
"Isn't this a bit risky, although the Turks are wounded, but the emaciated camels are bigger than the horses, there are still a lot of people, and the troops in Yizhou are insufficient, why don't you think about it more." Xue Rengui persuaded him.
"Brother Xue, don't worry, I already have an idea, I just went to threaten, and I didn't think about occupying the Turks." Situ Changfeng explained.
"That's good, but it's a pity that I need to go back to the right and can't go together." Xue Rengui said regretfully.
"The little brother also wants to fight side by side with Brother Xue, but unfortunately the time has not come! I am very sorry. Situ Changfeng thought of another time and space, Fan Lihua was said to be Xue Rengui's wife, and he couldn't help but be cautious of some men, wishing that Xue Rengui would leave immediately.
…………
It rained heavily for three consecutive days, and Xue Rengui was in a hurry to return to Yumen Pass, but the road was not easy to walk, so he simply left the soldiers, took a few personal guards, and left.
After another three days, Yizhou has come out of the war and returned to its former busyness.
Mining, kiln firing, making woolen clothes, non-stop work.
Although more than 10,000 people died in this battle, and more than 10,000 people who lacked arms and legs, they were all properly resettled, and Yizhou gave generous treatment and appeased people's hearts, and no one complained.
Cattle and sheep, money, work, materials, these rewards have completely solved their family's worries. Some even regret that they were not injured.
It can be said that the richest and most stable group of people in Datang is in Yizhou.
"Situ boy, what else is there to gather everyone today? If it's okay, we should go back to Chang'an. "After the big war, the spirit has been relatively excited, and in the past few days, he has caught a group of young people who have not advanced to the heaven level and practiced fiercely.
I also admire some of Situ Changfeng's actions, although he is still not polite when he speaks, his tone is already very soft.
"Yizhou is a big victory, the younger generations have already played Your Majesty, leaving your seniors here, one is to use your force, and the other is to have a good thing, I hope to share it together." Situ Changfeng explained.
"If you have something, just say it, we will definitely help if we can." Red Whisk didn't think about it, and directly agreed on behalf of everyone.
"The juniors are determined to send troops and drive the Turks to the Western Regions! As for the good things, everyone will know when the time comes, let me sell it first, and give you a surprise when the time comes! Situ Changfeng said with a smile.
"Alright! Everyone has seen your strategy, and I believe that you will not mess around, you just look at the arrangement! Red Whisk nodded and said.
"Feiyan, Liwan, you and the second brother, guard Yizhou, I will leave the Xuanshui armor soldiers, two thousand soldiers remaining, and I will take all the other 20,000 horses. There is a father-in-law with 300 people in Fanjiazhai guarding the mine, don't worry, you will have to worry more in the city. Situ Changfeng said softly.
"Fenglang, don't worry, the concubine can save herself!" Although Zheng Liwan wanted to go together, she still held back and said softly.
Zheng Liwan never objected to Situ Changfeng, and took good care of him, and was so understanding, which has always moved Situ Changfeng very much, especially in the case of Fan Lihua, she made concessions and was magnanimous, so that Situ Changfeng secretly decided that he would accompany her more when he was free.
"A few days ago, it was the people of Fanjiazhai who set fire outside the city!" Red Whisk guessed for sure.
"Seniors, it's true, they've been lurking outside the city, just waiting for that time, after all, it's easy to be found when you go out in the city." Situ Changfeng explained.
After discussing for a while, everyone went back to prepare, this time the expedition of 20,000 people, although not a lot, but they are all elites who have experienced bloody battles, so the combat power is not small.
The next day, the army set out on an expedition, marching westward with one man and two horses, and the speed was extremely fast.
Along the way, whether it was next door or in the steppe, not a single herdsman saw it, and the Turks were also worried about retribution, so all the tribes withdrew.
However, this is also in line with Situ Changfeng's intentions, he can move less hands and feet, speed up the speed of progress, and can also catch the enemy off guard.
After driving for more than ten days, close to the boundary of the Western Regions, I found the traces of the herdsmen.
Immediately, Situ Changfeng began to order-drive away! Make a look of killing them all, snatch the cattle, sheep and horses, kill a few people, and expel the rest.
As for the strong resistance, I'm sorry, all extinguished.
Situ Changfeng and the others were not in a hurry to advance, and kept looking for the Turkic tribes, burning, killing and looting, causing the Turkic tribes to flee further west.
