Chapter 431: Robbery while the fire is on fire

Caster did not have time to thank the god of fate for his favor, and the hundred horsemen who came with him were dead and wounded, and he abandoned his horse and hid to escape. He then had to follow the road to cross the eastern branch of the Ferghana Mountains to enter the territory of the Turgish, where his men were to the northeast.

Time is of the essence, time is a fighter, and Casser knew he had to bring the news back as soon as possible, so he abandoned almost everything he had and hit the road with only a scimitar without a scabbard. What he didn't expect was that Ning Yuantie also set up a ranger patrol on the mountain trail, and with a lot of effort, Kaser escaped the pursuit of the other party again, and it was three days before he crossed the heavy mountain to find his subordinates.

Kaser did not rest, took the war horse and galloped desperately, and many important details he needed to report to Sulu Khan in person.

At this time, Sulu Khan had already received a reward from the scout Bajo.

According to Bajo, south of the Fergana Mountain Range, there are not many soldiers in the Ningyuan Iron Cavalry Battalion blocked at the entrance of the north-south passage, but there are quite a few tents, but almost all of the rear battalions are dummies. If you look from outside the barracks, you can only see many figures, and you will definitely not find the mystery inside.

"Haha! It is so naΓ―ve and stupid that the horse bandits are not strong enough to try to deceive us with this little trick and try to scare us down! Sulu Khan couldn't help but burst into laughter, he could understand Li Huaitang's thoughts, after all, he was defeated by his men last year, according to common sense, he should be very afraid, where would he dare to take the initiative to provoke him? Fortunately, the Turgi Shi people are brave and have never known what they are afraid of!

Of course, Sulu Khan also admired his strategic planning and precautions, and planted his eyes and ears in Ningyuan City and Xijian City early, and the news of Li Huaitang's expedition reached his ears as soon as possible, not only that, but also brought back various information about Ningyuan City by the way, such as coal mines and copper and gold mines, there were tens of thousands of strong slaves in these two mines, most of whom were soldiers of various ethnic groups who invaded Ningyuan City with him last year.

Thinking of the tens of thousands of strong slaves, Sulu Khan couldn't help but laugh at Li Huaitang's greed and stupidity, if it were him, in the case of overstretched troops, he would definitely drive these slaves to the battlefield, let them consume in the offensive and defensive battles, and contribute to the capture of the target city, the so-called killing two birds with one stone. However, Sulu Khan is also glad that now his strength is thin, if only with the current strength of the army, even if he takes advantage of the emptiness in the enemy's rear to go south, he can only look at the city and sigh, tens of thousands of strong slaves have become his first target, as long as these strong slaves are coerced, do not worry about Ningyuan City. He was pleased with Bajo's information, but the fly in the ointment was that he did not get details about the coal and copper-gold mines, especially whether there were soldiers stationed in the mines.

Immediately after that, the news that Kaser brought back, as well as the report from Mohe Dagan that Sim City had been captured by the Ningyuan Iron Cavalry, made Sulu Khan extremely excited.

Sulu Khan smirked and said: "In ten days of offensive and defensive battles, I am afraid that more than half of the bandit army has lost." Because the generals didn't know how to advance or retreat, they also divided their troops to attack Sim City, and this time he was finished! ”

"Great Khan, Li Huaitang is losing red eyes, desperate! Heaven helps the Great Khan, we send troops to hate! Dumozhi chimed in.

"Father Khan, send troops!" Gu Si's anxious expression could not hide the excitement, and the opportunity for revenge was placed in front of him.

Sulu Khan fell silent, looked around at the generals in the tent, and under the gaze of an expectant and eager gaze, for a long time, he squeezed out four words from between his teeth, and landed with a voice: "Pull out the camp and go south!" ”

The 30,000 Turkish army quickly crossed the Duolong Pass and appeared in the upper reaches of the medicine killing water.

The upper basin of Yaozhishui is theoretically the traditional territory of the Tuqi Shi people, and since it was swept away by Li Huaitang's 3,000 horsemen from the north, the entire upper basin is rarely crowded. Now that this place has become a place for the scouts of the two sides to fight, the army of the Turgish has appeared, and the sea holly carried by the Eagle Scouts has discovered the enemy.

He fought with Ning Yuan Tieqi many times, and the heavy price was not without gain, at least the Tuqi Shi people saw the doorway and vaguely knew what that little black shadow in the sky meant.

"Oops, we've been discovered!" The scout blurted out Cather's voice of concern. Sulu Khan, who was beside him, looked disdainful and didn't take it seriously at all.

"What's the panic? Do you think Li Huaitang can still withdraw from Shiguo? Even if he reluctantly retreats after receiving the news, how can he be our opponent if he loses his troops and loses his morale? I'm worried about him coming back! ”

After Sulu Khan finished scolding Kasser, he turned to the herald: "Tell the front army to speed up, don't entangle with the enemy cavalry, be sure to cross the Fergana Mountain as quickly as possible, and don't stop when you encounter the barracks, and directly rush it!" ”

Sulu Khan's plan was to sweep away tens of thousands of strong slaves on Ferghana Mountain before Li Huaitang reacted, with this group of young and strong people, his strength would increase greatly, and then intercept Li Huaitang who was angry and defeated in the middle of the road, as long as his main force was defeated, Ning Yuancheng would not be able to escape from the palm of his hand even if it was strong. This time, he not only wants to take revenge, but also takes back the lost capital with interest, Princess Broken Leaves, and Li Huaitang's wife and concubine, all in his pocket......

In the direction of Zhezhi City, Yi Wei finally sent his scout team to investigate the camp of Ning Yuan's iron cavalry. For many days, the enemy army no longer appeared under the city to harass, and the bonfires in the barracks were significantly reduced every night, under normal circumstances, these signs indicated that the enemy army was gradually retreating, as for the reason, his conjecture remained unchanged, it must be the Turks who took the opportunity to attack Ningyuan City. However, Yi Wei is a veteran on the battlefield, he knows what a soldier is, and he knows what is hidden and false, and he did not act rashly. It's not that he is timid and cautious, the reality is very helpless, the opponent has a large number of cavalry, and he is almost all infantry, and the difference in arms determines that the pursuit is a false proposition. From the beginning, he didn't think about covering his tail and chasing and killing, Sulu Khan's thoughts coincided with him, since Sulu Khan sent troops to attack the enemy's rear road, then let them die, it is best to lose both.

"Empty camp?" Even though the scout's reward was in line with Yi Wei's expectations, he couldn't help but be surprised.

"Order, send troops to receive Bula Fort!" In any case, the three fortresses to the west of Zhezhi City must be occupied, and next time, he will not easily give up these three strong strongholds.

Not surprisingly, Bula Castle was successfully recovered, and Iki was immersed in the joy of retreating from the enemy. In the evening, he received a report from the soldiers who had fled from Sim City that Sim City had been stolen by Mohetutun!

Yi Wei is not worried about foreign enemies, but he can't tolerate Mohe Tutun, in his opinion, Mohe Tutun is a greater threat than Li Huaitang, and he wants to get rid of it quickly. These days, his scouts can't penetrate the defense line of Ningyuan's iron cavalry, and the surrounding situation is a black eye, and it took more than ten days for Sim City to change hands before he learned the news through the rout, Yi Wei couldn't help but be furious, and then launched a large army to the north.
