At this time, the battlements and enemy platforms in the entire northern city of Anle Prefecture, the Tutuan soldiers stationed on them all gathered and silently watched the spectacular scene below:

The cavalry of nearly 10,000 Xifan and Tuyuhun no longer attacked the infantry defense line of the Baicao Army, nor did they dare to attack the state city at all, but passed through the riverbed and desert north of the city, and rushed towards the direction of the Yellow River without a life.

Gao Lian envoy was on horseback, and he was also the only war horse in the entire mule army, waving the horizontal knife given to him by Captain Duan, shouting loudly, the mule army soldiers and horses made Xu Si follow closely beside him, and the eight hundred white grass mule soldiers first intercepted, and then actually turned around and chased after nearly 10,000 enemy cavalry!

Seeing that the enemy continued to fall off his horse, or was killed by his own mule soldiers, or died of hunger and thirst, Gao Yue was excited at the same time, but also gritted his teeth with hatred: if the Tang army in other towns could be closely surrounded, how could there be a scene of eight hundred mule soldiers chasing after the Xifan Palace and running all over the world? All of Ma Chongying's people would have been wiped out in this dry sea long ago.

Although there are achievements now, the difference between them and the expected strategic goals is too big......

"I can only hope that the Lingyan Festival will make Kang Rizhi and send troops and horses to help intercept and kill and expand the results of the battle......"

But before Gao Yue could finish thinking, the sharp horn behind him exploded, and he looked back.

Obediently, behind the undulating sand dunes on the east side of Anle River, a huge amount of dust was raised, and rolling soldiers and horses rushed here.

"What the hell is going on, is it possible that Ma Chongying still has a backhand, but this is not like it at all!" Gao Yue was very surprised.

The Baicao Infantry Army, who was resting on the east bank, was also panicked at first when they saw the scene in front of them.

In fact, this group of soldiers and horses is the Shatuo Wanhu who escaped from the battle behind the Yanzhou Palace.

At Qinggang Ridge, Zhu Xie's loyal father and son's ambush strategy was seen through by the four generals of the Tang Army, so they did not dare to fight, and hurriedly defeated through Yanzhou, trying to cross the river with Ma Chongying.

Many Shatuo people along the road, due to fatigue and trauma, fell in the desert, they sat in place, gave their horses and water to their companions, and wailed and worshiped to the land of their ancestors in the west, and said to Zhu Xie, "King, leave us alone, and bring more people back to their hometowns."

Zhu Xie was loyal to his father and son, and he also cried while fleeing, but after running here, he saw that An Lechuan had been cut off by the Tang army, and there were many horse corpses lying on the sand on the riverbank, all of which were from Xifan and Tuyuhun.

"God will kill me!" Duzhong shouted in despair.

"Father, most of the Tang army are foot soldiers, and the formation is not neat, presumably they have suffered a hard battle before, and our army rushed over directly by detour, and there is still vitality."

"Where?"

"There is a spring in Bole Mountain, so I rush to Bole Mountain. Father, I secretly asked my children to prepare more water bladders before, and I can still support them. ”

"Good son!" At this time, Zhu Xie was loyal and couldn't wait to hug Zhiyi's neck and kiss him well.

But then Zhu Xie was loyal and burst into tears, and Zhiyi also cried.

In fact, where is there any "more water bladders" in Zhiyi, these water bladders are all abandoned by the tribesmen along the road, they leave the despair of death to themselves, and give us the hope of life.

"What I drank right away, where is the water, it's clearly the blood of the clansmen."

So, under the city of Anle, Shatuo Wanhu also fled in the wilderness.

After nightfall, the mule soldiers of the White Grass Army, who had been chasing for a while, returned with their tired heads hanging from their saddles.

They were also depleted of supplies and could not pursue them further.

At this moment, the city of Anle City, the firelight on the crossbow platform, and the stars in the night sky shone brightly, and the desert night was extremely cold.

Gao Yue, who was missing two teeth, was so angry that he kept slashing the pillars of the watchtower with his saber until the other party was "scarred".

In this way, watching the invading armies of Xifan, Tuyuhun, and Shatuo get away, they could not inflict a devastating blow on the other side.

I won't smash my two teeth in vain, and I swear by them that I won't let go of the bastards who caused today's situation, one or two.

That night, Gao Yue couldn't tell what was going on with the 5,000 cavalry that had been sent out to attack Bole Mountain, whether Guo Zaizhen had contacted them or not, all he could do was to gather all the foot soldiers, earth regiments and mule soldiers on hand, and spend the night in anxiety.

The next day, the good news came, and the 1,500 cavalry led by Wu Xianfu and Zhang Wanfu actually appeared near Anle City and got in touch with Gao Yue.

It turned out that they were chasing the Shatuo tribe all the way, and because the supplies couldn't keep up, so only so many people could come.

After asking the reason, Gao Yue was even more furious in his heart, and sure enough, it was still Ma Sui and Zhang Yansheng who were dragging their feet.

But he has been trained in officialdom over the years, and he has become much more mature, and the two teeth that were smashed are his weapons, so Gao Yue was silent on the surface, but just asked the cavalry of Wu Xianfu and Zhang Wanfu's team to be fully fed in Anle City, and then Gao Yue immediately ordered the whole army to reorganize and advance towards Mingsha.

At this time, from Anle City to the direction of Mingsha Town, the scene seen along the way is simply shocking.

Every short distance, the corpses of the enemy were pillowed, and they all lay on the sand, looking as if they were asleep, but when the soldiers of the White Grass Army passed by, they found that many of the corpses were bleeding from their mouths and noses, and their clothes were tattered, mixed with the floating sand, like a dark red mask covering their faces: this group of people were all exhausted, and they died without water to drink, which shows how anxious Ma Chongying, Murong Junchao and Zhu Xie were loyal.

At the foot of Bole Mountain, Gao Yue actually saw a large number of Tang cavalry, raising flags and coming to his division.

The one who came was the cavalry team of generals such as Ming Huaiyi, Mi Yuan and Zhang Yufei, in addition to the three thousand elite cavalry reinforced by Lingwu Kang Rizhi!

Guo Zaizhen and Cai Fengyuan made meritorious deeds again this time: Cai first crossed the desert, bypassed Bole Mountain to Lingwu City, and after seeing Kang Rizhi, he handed over Gao Yue's document and asked for reinforcements from this Jiedu envoy.

At first, Kang Rizhi was distressed, because he had received a secret letter from Zhang Yansheng before, telling him not to get involved in the encirclement and suppression of Ma Chongying, but Cai Fengyuan tried his best to say that among the 5,000 cavalry dispatched by Gao Lian, there were Jingyuan and Shence Jingxi Right Battalion, who were ordered by the Holy Lord, and asked the Metropolitan Governor not to shirk (otherwise the Holy Lord would not be able to explain there).

After thinking about it, Kang Rizhi still agreed, and dispatched 3,000 cavalry to search and intercept Ma Chongying.

In fact, when Gao Yue was fighting in Anle City, the 3,000 cavalry of Ming Huaiyi and Lingwu appeared on the battlefield in the Mingsha area and fought against Ma Chongying, who had escaped.

According to Ming Huaiyi and Cai Fengyuan afterwards, Ma Chongying replenished the spring water in Bole Mountain at that time, so the cavalry of the two sides fought a big melee at dusk, regardless of victory or defeat, and each withdrew at night.

"Ma Chongying, they shouldn't have completely crossed Mingsha yet, let's chase it again." Gao Yue said eagerly.

He guessed correctly, at this time, at the sand dunes along the edge of the Yellow River, and the clumps of sandbar reeds and grass raised in the middle of the river, nearly thirty percent of the soldiers and horses of Xifan were clustered on the east bank, eagerly and nervously looking at the sheepskin pouches or rafts paddling on the river, waiting to be crossed.
