Chapter 801: Keman's counterattack
"Yes, but I only have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and I ask His Majesty Khan to allocate some more for me."
Keman was very angry, and he was angry that he only wanted to fight with the Tang Army now.
And he is confident that with 20,000 soldiers and horses, he will be able to capture Dingxiang City and kill Qin Tian.
Of course, if it was another time, he would not have such self-confidence, but now that it is a cold winter, the Tang army may be frozen hands and feet are stiff, how can he defend the city and how to fight?
If you don't have confidence at this time, it's too much to say.
Jieli Khan pondered for a moment, and then said: "Okay, in that case, then Ben Khan will hand over the 3,000 soldiers and horses of the Later Sui to you, and then mobilize 5,000 Turkic soldiers and horses from other places for you, and give you enough 20,000 numbers, how about you go to attack Dingxiang City?" ”
Hearing that he was going to allocate the 3,000 soldiers and horses of the Later Sui to himself, Ke Man was a little disgusted, because he did not recognize the strength of the Later Sui soldiers and horses, and the 3,000 Later Sui soldiers and horses might not even be as good as his former Turkic soldiers and horses.
What's more, among the soldiers and horses of the Later Sui, there are more than 1,000 female soldiers.
Women, they are only vassals of their men, but they are fighting in the army, what war can they fight?
After the menstrual incident, they couldn't control the pain anymore, and they still went to war?
However, disgust is disgust, and his goal has been achieved, so Keman didn't say anything, so he could only nod his head.
After this should be down, Keman left the Turkic royal city, only waiting for the soldiers and horses given to him by Jieli Khan to arrive at the Naiman Department, of course, he was in such a hurry to go back, but also worried that the Tang army would raid the Naiman Department, in that case, if he was not there, his tribe would be in danger.
Ke Man departed, and Jieli Khan's orders were quickly transmitted to the Later Sui military camp.
In the big tent of the Hou Sui military camp, charcoal fire was burning, Yang Zhengdao was shivering from the cold, here, I don't know how much colder it was than their previous capital, he couldn't bear it.
"Looks like it's going to snow here, right?" Yang Zhengdao said something faintly, and at this time, a Turkic soldier came and told Yang Zhengdao about the order of Jieli Khan.
The attitude of this Turkic soldier is a bit arrogant, after all, for a dead king, he does not need enough respect.
"His Majesty the Khan has an order, let your 3,000 soldiers and horses of the Later Sui go to Naiban Buluo and attack Dingxiang City with the Keman generals."
After speaking, the Turkic soldiers didn't stop long, they just turned around and left, he didn't worry about anything, because Yang Zhengdao They had no choice but to obey orders.
The Turkic soldiers left, and Yang Zhengdao's expression changed suddenly.
He only has these 3,000 soldiers and horses left, and if he goes to attack the city at this time, doesn't this mean that he will have no military power in his hands?
If he has no military power in his hands, then he can only be slaughtered by others.
And then there is, if you have 3,000 soldiers and horses, can you capture Dingxiang City?
The Tang Army in there is very powerful.
"Go and call the concubine."
After a while, Chen Yuer walked over.
"Holy Lord, are you looking for me?"
Yang Zhengdao nodded, and then told Chen Yu'er about the order of Jieli Khan just now, Chen Yu'er's face froze after listening: "He doesn't want our Hou Sui soldiers to be sent to death." ”
Everyone can see that Jieli Khan just wants them to die, or rather, weaken Yang Zhengdao's strength.
Although Yang Zhengdao is already very weak, the existence of these 3,000 soldiers and horses still can't make Jieli Khan too reassured, and these 3,000 Han soldiers and horses are on the edge of his royal city, how can Jieli Khan eat well and sleep well?
Therefore, it is only appropriate to take advantage of this opportunity to weaken Yang Zhengdao's soldiers and horses.
That's why he agreed to Keman's request.
One is to weaken Yang Zhengdao, and the other is to let Ke Man test the Tang Army to see if they are really frozen by the cold weather and can't hold their weapons, if this is the case, then the time for them to take the opportunity to counterattack is here.
Chen Yuer was very angry, her eyebrows were staring, and she looked more and more handsome.
Yang Zhengdao smiled bitterly: "Concubine, now that we are under the eaves, can we not bow our heads?" We are fish and meat, they are knives, there is no way. ”
Chen Yuer also sighed lightly.
"It's a pity that Ziyi surrendered so many soldiers and horses to the Tang Army, otherwise we wouldn't be like this." Although she knew that Yuan Ziyi surrendered just to buy time for their escape, Chen Yuer still felt very uncomfortable when she thought that so many soldiers and horses had been given to the Tang army like this.
Yang Zhengdao here, after hearing this, his eyebrows moved slightly, and he was also a little angry in his heart, if Yuan Ziyi was willing to fight with Tang Jun, even if he was defeated in the end, he would be able to achieve his goal.
In this way, it also weakened the power of the Tang army and gave the Turks a chance to counterattack, as long as the Turks defeated the Tang army, maybe he would be able to meet Dingxiangcheng as his own son of heaven again.
But he made a deal with Tang Jun, not only did not weaken Tang Jun, but strengthened Tang Jun, which added obstacles to his return.
In the past, he liked Yuan Ziyi the most, but now, he has more resentment towards Yuan Ziyi.
Especially after Chen Yuer said this, he was even more resentful.
"Concubine, I will hand over the three thousand soldiers and horses of the Sui Dynasty to you to lead, I must keep these soldiers and horses for me, and after meeting Yuan Ziyi, ask her if she is guilty, if she is guilty, thank the world with death."
Hearing Yang Zhengdao say this, Chen Yuer's heart moved, she knew that Yang Zhengdao used to like Yuan Ziyi the most, but now that he said this, it was obvious that he hated Yuan Ziyi in his heart.
Chen Yuer hesitated for a moment, but then responded.
After the 3,000 soldiers and horses of the Later Sui were ready, they joined up with the 5,000 soldiers and horses dispatched by the Turkic Jieli Khan and rushed to the Naiban tribe together.
And just when they were rushing like this, Dingxiang City's side had quickly gotten the news.
"Hahaha, okay, okay, the Turks finally can't help it, and they are going to attack the city." Cheng Yanjin laughed and entered Qin Tian's big tent, and then told everyone about the situation, he was the first to know the news, because halfway through, he stopped the spies who sent the news.
When everyone heard Cheng Yanjin say this, their expressions moved.
"In this case, our plan has worked, as long as they come, we will kill as many of them as they come."
"It's, it's just, we're defending the city, it's not an easy thing?"
The Tang army is good at attacking cities, and at the same time good at defending cities, and defending cities is more advantageous, coupled with the large number of soldiers and horses, there is no suspense.
"Okay, give the order to go down, let the soldiers prepare to defend the city, soon, we will have a war with the Turks, here weakens their strength, and it will be much easier to launch a general attack after the spring of next year."
Li Ji said excitedly, Qin Tian here, also nodded, but at this time, a guard hurriedly ran in.
