Autumn wind chill.

Just when the mirrors of Chang'an City were popular, Bian asked to study the "Compendium of Materia Medica".

Ma Zhou finally entered the grassland with his soldiers and horses, as well as the grain and grass collected along the way.

In autumn, the grasslands are already withered and yellow.

At this time, what Ma Zhou saw was also withered yellow, but this withered yellow was quite a little scarred.

The ground is cracked, and the grass is the kind of withered yellow after drying, giving people the feeling of an old man in his last years.

Originally, at this time, you might still be able to see some herders grazing on the grassland, but now, these are basically gone.

The rivers on the steppe are almost dry.

Devastation.

When Ma Zhou saw these places, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

Whoever lives in such a place will be forced to do something to survive, but it's not more legal than that, right?

"My lord, there is a Turkic rebel army in front."

On the fourth day after Ma Zhou entered the grassland, just as he saw the whole picture of the grassland, a guard hurriedly ran over and reported to him about the surrounding situation.

In today's grassland, there are many rebels, they are constantly attacking and plundering.

And they do all this just to live.

Hearing that a Turkic rebel army was coming, Ma Zhou didn't show much panic, he just asked, "How many soldiers and horses?" ”

"Not much, only about a thousand."

The grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and it is very good to have a team of about 1,000 people.

Ma Zhou nodded and said, "Okay, give the order to go down and prepare for battle." ”

Since he has encountered the Turkic rebels, this matter is not good, Ma Zhou knows that he must fight a battle, if he does not fight, the next thing will not be easy to do.

The order was given, and the three thousand Tang troops immediately began to prepare.

These 3,000 Tang troops are all people who have experienced a lot of wars, and at this time, they are all over the body and have extraordinary momentum.

is also full of murderous energy.

The Tang army was waiting for the battle, and Ma Zhou's eyes were slightly condensed.

He was actually a little nervous in his heart, to be honest, he was just a civilian official, he had never fought before, and now that he was going to fight, he didn't know what would happen next.

However, although his heart was nervous, his expression was very calm.

After following Qin Tian for so long, he still knows some about some battles, or the art of war or something.

He knew that he had to be calm and had to give confidence to the officers and men of the Tang Army.

The Turks are only more than a thousand soldiers and horses, and they still dare to run and rush to kill at this time, it is nothing more than that they have taken a fancy to the materials behind him, and if they want to risk a battle, they may be more nervous and afraid than themselves.

The autumn wind raged on the grassland, blowing Ma Zhou's clothes and flying.

Not long after, Ma Zhou saw dust in the distance, and a Turkic cavalry rushed towards it like a madman.

They were excited, and they kept shouting and screaming.

They need to use this method to cheer them up now.

There is no way, they only have about a thousand people, and they are also afraid, if not for the sake of living, their regular army that dares to rob the Tang army.

Soon, the Turkic rebels rushed over, and the two sides confronted each other, and the Turkic horses seemed very restless, constantly walking back and forth, and the dust was still flying.

The man in the lead, with a burly figure and a hideous and ugly face, carried a large ring knife in his hand.

He glanced up at Ma Zhou, and said with a smile: "If you are interested, leave everything here, if not, I will let you break your soul here today." ”

Looking at this man, Ma Zhou still seemed very calm.

"This official is the Qin messenger of Datang disaster relief, it is ridiculous to ask this official to leave things behind, this official shows you a clear way, surrender, I Datang will naturally ensure that you live, otherwise, this official will also kill today."

Ma Zhou's words were cold, and on this grassland, his voice echoed, making the Tang army behind him shake.

They need that kind of momentum and spirit.

It's just that Ma Zhou's words made the Turks very angry.

"Okay, okay, if that's the case, then don't blame us."

The leader of the Turkic rebels shouted angrily, and then a thousand soldiers and horses slaughtered the Tang army.

And at this time, among the Tang army, someone immediately took out the Zhuge crossbow.

"Launch!"

The sharp arrows flew towards the Turkic soldiers and horses, and as soon as the Turks rushed over, many people were shot and fell to the ground.

However, their speed was very fast, and it didn't take long for them to get close to the Tang army.

"Kill!"

At this time, Ma Zhou shouted angrily, and then, Tang Jun rushed over with his weapon.

In comparison, the physical fitness of the Turks is better than that of the Tang army, but of the 3,000 soldiers and horses of the Tang army, 2,000 and a half are equipped with Tang swords, of which 500 are the Modao team.

This is the elite of the elite in the Don Army.

In this way, in the face of a thousand Turkic rebels who were only Turkic people before, and the elite of the Tang Army of 3,000, it is not difficult to defeat them.

The battle began suddenly, and after the Tang army rushed over, before the Turks could react, Tang Dao directly took their weapons and people and split them in half.

Tang Dao rushed to kill on the battlefield, the Turkic rebels fell one after another, and when the autumn wind rose again, the smell of blood was already permeating.

Although the Turkic soldiers and horses are fierce and have the obsession to survive, they are simply vulnerable in the face of absolute strength.

The Tang army killed, killed, killed.

And just when Tang Dao was acting in the midst of the Turkic rebels, the Modao team had already killed the Turkic leader.

Those Turkic rebels, after the start of the war, had been shocked by the Tang army's Tang sword, and they were afraid in their hearts, and now when they saw such a team, they suddenly remembered a legend that circulated in the steppe.

"The Datang Mo knife team, everywhere it passes, blood flows like a river."

"That'...... That's Datang's Modao team? The Turkic rebel's expression was solemn, and the feeling of uneasiness suddenly became more and more intense.

And at this time, Datang's Mo Dao team had already killed the past.

"Kill ......"

With a shout, the Mo knife suddenly slashed, and just when the Mo knife slashed, the front row of Turkic rebels was directly split in half, and this also included the leader of the Turkic rebel army who was very disdainful of Ma Zhou before.

He never imagined that he would be killed like this, too soon, too quickly.

His body was halved, and the remaining Turkic rebels panicked, and they tried to flee.

But Ma Zhou's side has been prepared for a long time.

"Close!"

At the sound of an order, the formation of the Tang army began to change, and in just a few moments, it surrounded all the remaining hundreds of Turkic rebels.

After these Turkic rebels were surrounded, their expressions became more and more nervous, and they still regretted a little, why did they not have long eyes and come to plunder knowing that this was the regular army of the Tang Dynasty?
