When Xia Xue heard the news of the Turkic army's invasion of Chang'an, she was also furious, but she did not endure like Li Yuan and Li Shimin, but decided to clean up the Turks. "Dare to bully my husband and look for death!"

Xia Xue's decision was not emotionally impulsive, because she had been preparing for a decisive battle with the powerful horseback people in the north for 10 years, and now she has enough strength and confidence to defeat the powerful Turks.

Summer Snow cruises through the industrial factories of the Angel Country, each of which is in full swing and the machines are roaring. The tall iron-making blast furnace stands in the steelmaking mill like a towering giant tree, billowing black smoke, the iron ore is continuously transported from the mine, from the wharf through the rail train, filled into the iron-making furnace, the boiling molten steel rolls, and constantly produces good billets, the steam engine hydraulic forging hammer tirelessly forges various steel parts, the mold workshop keeps casting molds of various shapes and specifications, and the motor machine tools of the lathe factory keep processing various mechanical precision parts. The assembly line in the assembly hall is constantly assembling a variety of products. New thermal and hydroelectric power plants are supplying cities and factories with a steady stream of electricity.

Xia Xue cruises on the busy docks of the Angel Country, on which tall tower cranes stand and constantly load and unload mountains of goods. With the continuous improvement of the productivity level of the Angel Country, the steelmaking technology and steel plate welding technology are becoming more and more perfect, and the steel giant ships with good performance, strength and safety have been launched.

Xia Xue is paraded in the large farms of the Angel Country, and the tractors designed by Xia Xue are also called "Iron Bulls" on the vast land, and the farmers are cultivating the land "suddenly".

Xia Xue cruised through the textile factories of the Angel Kingdom, where spinning machines and looms driven by steam engines and electric motors processed raw materials such as thread, silk, and hemp into silk threads and fabrics day and night.

……

"This is a strong comprehensive national strength, this is the magic of great science and technology, and this is the competitiveness that is proud of the world! Turkic Jieli Khan, you wait, those who offend my husband will be punished even if they are far away! Xia Xue raised Yang Xiu's eyebrows confidently.

A few days later, Li Shimin received a secret letter from Xia Xue, saying that before getting married, he would give Li Shimin a big dowry: to eliminate the Turks, the henchmen of the Tang State.

Li Shimin was shocked, he knew the strength of the Turks, how could he let his beloved unmarried queen take such a big risk. But the envoy sent by Xia Xue was very resolute, saying that Li Shimin was assured that the queen would definitely defeat the Turks.

Just do it, it's Xia Xue's personality.

Five days later, Xia Xue led 10,000 firearms cavalry regiments, and Li Jing led 20,000 regular cavalry regiments to cross the Yangtze River from Anqing Mansion. In 6 years, the Angel Country's high-quality horse breeding farm and Australia's vast pastures have bred a large number of high-quality war horses for the Angel Kingdom, and now the Angel Kingdom has more war horses than the Tang Kingdom.

In the blue and black sky, there was not a single star, only a hook of the waning moon hanging in the corner of the sky. On the cold earth, there was only the sound of horses' hooves. Countless armors glowed with cold light. Looking ahead, it is smoke and dust, looking back, it is still smoke and dust, horses' hooves rumbling, stepping on the whole earth is trembling, Xia Xue led the angel army to the starry night, straight to Chang'an.

Ten days later, the main cavalry regiment of the 30,000 Angel Army came to Chang'an to join Li Shimin.

Xia Xue and Li Shimin talked about their plan: because the Turkic region is vast, they belong to the horseback nomads, they change places in all seasons, and they live in pursuit of water and grass, and it is difficult to find their main force for a decisive battle. If you want to destroy the Turks, you can only go deep into the steppe to find a suitable place and lure the main Turkic force to a decisive battle, and when you drag the main Turkic force, Li Shimin and Li Jing lead reinforcements to encircle and destroy the main Turkic force, so as to destroy the Turkic state and control the entire vast steppe. Because he was a bait, he couldn't bring too many people, so he was going to bring only 10,000 cavalry.

Because of the founding of the Tang State at the beginning of its existence, the national strength was weak, and there was a serious lack of war horses, and the cavalry concentrated in the whole country could only gather enough cavalry at most 30,000, plus the 30,000 cavalry of the Angel Kingdom, could 60,000 cavalry defeat the Turkic 200,000 cavalry army?

Li Shimin heard that Xia Xue only brought 10,000 cavalry to be bait, his head shook like a rattle, and he resolutely disagreed, he said that he would rather bring 10,000 cavalry to be bait than let Xia Xue take risks.

"Do you believe me?" Xia Xue's clear and pure eyes looked at Li Shimin quietly.

How familiar this sentence is, how familiar this look is! On the edge of the cliff of Tongguan, in the bleak autumn wind, when I said goodbye......

Li Shimin finally nodded with difficulty and helplessness, he had always had absolute trust in Xia Xue unconditionally.

Xia Xue saw that Li Shimin finally nodded in agreement, and smiled happily, "I'm a little fairy, there's nothing I can't deal with, Erlang, you can rest assured!" After speaking, Xia Xue leaned into Li Shimin's ear and whispered: "The guy who dares to bully my husband, I will make him look good!" Those who offend my husband will be punished even if they are far away! After speaking, Xia Xue's face couldn't help but blush with shyness.

"Husband, who is husband?" Li Shimin didn't react for a while, because the word husband meant husband, which was only popular more than a thousand years after the Tang Dynasty. However, when the smart Li Shimin saw the blush on Xia Xue's face, he immediately realized that her husband might be her husband, which may be a common saying in Xue'er's hometown. He immediately smiled happily, his heart blossomed, and he thought beautifully: "It seems that Xue'er has recognized me as a husband in her heart, so happy!" ”

"Cher, I believe in you! But you have to be careful! When will our reinforcements depart? ”

"When I find a suitable place to lure the enemy, I will send someone to inform you quickly. As long as you arrive in time, you can encircle and annihilate the Turkic enemy. ”

The grand strategy has been decided, and Xia Xue called this plan "Operation Wolf Extermination!" "Early the next morning, I set off with 10,000 Angel Country Special Warfare Cavalry Regiment.

More than a month later, the angel army that quietly entered the grassland finally found a suitable place - Yin Mountain.

The Turkic name of Yinshan is "Dharan Kara", which means "70 black mountain heads". The Yinshan Mountain Range is an ancient fault-block mountain, which is a staggered area of agriculture and pastoralism. The biggest feature of Yin Mountain is that it is asymmetrical from north to south, with steep mountains on the southern slope and gentle slopes on the northern slope. The average altitude of the mountains is between 1,500 and 2,300 meters. It is like a huge natural barrier, blocking the cold current in the south and the humidity in the north at the same time, so the climate difference between the north and south of Yinshan is significant, which is the dividing line between the grassland and the desert grassland. The rainfall in the southern foothills is relatively abundant, which is suitable for the development of agriculture. The vegetation in the mountainous area is sparse, and there are only small forests on the shady slopes of the eastern section, with birch, aspen, fenggong, oriental cypress, pine, willow and other tree species. The central and western sections of the mountains are interspersed with mountain pastures of varying sizes and have historically been important pastoral areas.

Xia Xue found this mountain, the transverse fault between the mountains has been eroded by flowing water to form a wide valley, the main body of the mountain range is composed of Archean metamorphic rocks and granite of different ages, the terrain is disordered, some places are covered by basalt, and some areas of lava terraces have been eroded and cut into flat-topped low mountains and hills. There is a natural freshwater lake in the mountains, enough for more than 10,000 people to drink.

The Yinshan Mountains are the northern boundary of the monsoon and non-monsoon regions, and belong to the transition zone between temperate semi-arid and arid climates, and some places are particularly arid, such as the Wolf Mountain in the west, which is not suitable for stationing soldiers and horses.

The mountain area chosen by Xia Xue is a steep cliff 100 meters high, which is difficult for people to climb up, so you can avoid worries.

On the left and right sides of the mountain are steep slopes with a slope of more than 70 degrees, the highest section is more than 80 meters high, and the lowest section is also more than 30 meters high. It is difficult for people to climb, even if they are barely climbing, it will also cause the stone to break and make a sound, which will act as an alarm. Since the sandy rocks are barren and have little vegetation, you can see the slopes from the top of the mountain at a glance, making it difficult for the enemy to surprise them.

The front side of the mountain is a slope, most of the slope is only more than 30 degrees, and the area is very large, horses can also run on the side, there are lakes, grass and trees, it is really a natural pasture, enough to station more than 10,000 horses. In front of the hillside, there is an open field about 500 meters wide and 2,000 meters long, which is also a natural pasture with abundant water and grass.

Outside this open field is a criss-crossed, complex terrain of mountains.

"What a great place to stick to!" Xia Xue exclaimed.

She immediately ordered the Angel Warfare Regiment to set up camp on the hillside ahead and build fortifications. A roofed command room was built out of wood on the slope of the mountain. Six trenches were dug from the bottom of the mountain to the halfway point of the mountain, and anti-arrow canopies were built on the top of the trenches with wood and thin steel plates.

Although there is a 100-meter-high cliff behind, just in case, a 30-person lookout and observation team was also sent to the top of the mountain behind, and they took turns to be on duty in three shifts day and night.

On the left and right slopes, 500 patrol teams were sent to prevent the Turks from climbing the slopes from both sides.

The remaining 5,000 men, in addition to the logisticians, reserves, artillery, etc., dismounted and stationed in the fortifications and trenches, ready to meet the enemy. Horses graze in the hillside pastures temporarily.

He immediately sent several signal troops to quickly inform Li Shimin and Li Jing of the location of the lure to the enemy, hoping that they would rush to Yinshan within 20 days at the latest.
