"My God, this city of Shule is considered a military fortress by the Uighurs, right?" The Flying Eagle Brigade in Shule City, the most elite squad of the Tiance Army that had disappeared for nearly two months, showed a trace here, Su Xiaohu had a beard on his face, and if he didn't pay attention to distinguishing it, he couldn't recognize it at all, and he thought it was a nomadic man born and raised in the northwest. However, the helmsman of the Flying Eagle Brigade was uncomfortable at this time in front of him, a well-defended northwestern city that was full of traps and cooperable everywhere. In the past two months, they have basically figured out the surrounding area of Shule, and there are hundreds of intelligence maps sent back by them alone, and before the main force of the Tiance Army arrived, they had already sent back almost all the layout and army distribution in the entire Shule City, and even the distribution of the leading generals and those noble forces was also marked very clearly. After this information was summarized to the headquarters, it was not transferred to the Anxi Corps due to time constraints, so Qin Kong would not know anything about the situation on Shule's side when he set off with Zhang Sheng. However, as the pace of the Anxi Corps is getting faster and faster, and when the distance from Shule gets closer and closer, these news will be handed over to them sooner or later, but so far the secret guards sent by Qin Kong have not been able to take over the Flying Eagle Brigade in the city.

"Head, the fourth commander of the Northwest Branch has entered the city." Su Xiaohu was wondering if he would come to the Uighur court after completing the task, so that his Ye Protector had a long memory when he heard the news of Zhao Si's entry into the city behind him, and immediately smiled slightly, and said: "Okay, tell the brothers below, our work is coming, I heard that during the Eastern Expedition, Chen Shuai's side almost moved almost all the treasury on the Sanhan side back, and told the people below to keep an eye on it, don't let the rabbit cubs who were marked by us sneak those treasures away." Su Xiaohu threw away the half-eaten Hu cake and turned around to find Zhao Si, and at the same time began to talk about the results of their supervision these days. Several soldiers of the Flying Eagle Brigade behind him listened to the broken mouth of their boss and covered their mouths and held back a smile, no way, because the main force has not come for a long time, so they alone cannot snatch these treasures by relying on more than a thousand people, so during this time, all the soldiers of the Flying Eagle Brigade, including Su Xiaohu, are especially nostalgic for being transferred to the third brigade in Tibet, otherwise, if the entire team of the Flying Eagle Brigade is here, it is impossible to say that these bold guys really dare to do the amazing act of robbing treasures.

However, at this time, Zhao Si didn't care about these gold and silver treasures after seeing Su Xiaohu, but was worried that the two armies did not arrive at Shule City on time, and the latest news on the side of the northern front soldier Mahmoud was still on the side of Bodaling, and he didn't know when he could break through if it was blocked. At this time, Hammud's battle report was still on the way to Qiuzi, and Rao is Zhao Si controlled the entire Xuanyingwei intelligence network in Anxi, but he still couldn't detect the latest developments of the various departments at the first time. It is no wonder that he had contacted Qin Kong, knowing that the Anxi Corps had arrived at Shuangqu City and was fighting with the Uighur peripheral forces there, which was actually a taboo for the soldiers, and the Anxi Corps suddenly appeared in Shuangqu City at this time when the troops of the northern front and the frontal corps had not yet arrived at the designated position, which was tantamount to putting itself in the sight of the Uighurs, and also attracted the attention of all the Uighurs.

"Has the Uighur arrangement in the city changed?" Zhao Sizhao and Su Xiaohu were not reminiscent, he was worried that the Uighur royal court would concentrate all the main forces in the city before the other two troops and horses arrived, and go south to annihilate the Anxi corps with lightning speed, and then rush back to help Shule before the arrival of the northern front and the frontal troops and horses. If the Uighur Yehu really had such great courage, it would really be a catastrophe for Zhang Sheng's Anxi Corps.

"Except for several batches of messengers entering the city this morning, nothing else is left, and the garrison in the city has not moved for the time being. But-" Su Xiaohu shook his head and suddenly remembered something, and continued: "There is a nobleman in their royal court who left Shule three days ago, and I heard that they are going to go to Saman to borrow troops, because we don't have soldiers and horses to intercept Saman for the time being, so we didn't pay too much attention. ”

"I'm afraid that he may not go to Saman, but go south to organize soldiers and horses to fight against Zhang Sheng." Zhao Si shook his head, obviously not convinced by Su Xiaohu's statement. Samani and Qarlu had already reached an agreement with the Uighurs before, Qarluq had already sent troops, and Samanid would take the initiative to send people over even if they did not send troops, after all, once the Tiance army took Shule, then Saman would be the next to do it, and helping the Uighurs was to help themselves. At this time, there is no need to urge Saman at all, just send someone to tell them the latest progress of the Tiance Army, and they are not afraid that they will not send troops to help.

"What then? Do you want to remind Zhang Sheng? Su Xiaohu was also a little dumbfounded, they were living too comfortably these days, so they were too careless about this kind of intelligence analysis, so they began to get nervous while secretly blaming themselves.

"If the Uighurs only organize a tribal alliance in the south against the Anxi Corps, it would not be a big problem, and I am afraid that their royal court will directly mobilize the royal court guards to the south to join the armies of those tribes and surround the Anxi Corps. Zhang Sheng only had 30,000 people on his side. Zhao Si shook his head and expressed his worries, so he continued: "I will immediately ask someone to inform the marshal, you can find a way to send people out of the city to search north, I will give you a march map to see if you can find Hamoud's Uighur army, the focus is on the road from Bodaling to Shule, if you can find them to go south as soon as possible, you can also contain the Uighurs, and avoid Zhang Sheng being surrounded by a lone army." ”

Su Xiaohu nodded, took the march map handed over by Zhao Si, and asked Luo Minghao to immediately lead the team out of the city, search north along the path on the march map, and advance to find Hamoud, at the same time, he was a little worried: "We have only more than a thousand people in our hands now, if the Uighur royal court guard goes south, we don't even have the ability to take action." Otherwise, I'll arrange for someone to infiltrate their royal court and find a chance to assassinate that Ye Hu? ”

Su Xiaohu's method made Zhao Si startled, and hurriedly shook his head and said: "Don't fight that Ye Hu's idea, if you really kill this person, the Uighurs will definitely fall into a situation of disintegration immediately, in this way, I am afraid that it will be cheaper for nothing, but the marshal said that he wants to complete Shule City and the Uighurs, and wait for Hammud to come and receive it, don't play with fire." Although Zhao Si said so, Su Xiaohu's method undoubtedly gave him a little inspiration, so after pondering for a long time, he suddenly said: "But then again, although this Ye Hu can't move, you can think of other ways to disturb the internal stability of Shule City, and let the Uighurs feel that we have infiltrated the city, and it is best to make him feel that his Shule City is already in turmoil, and he does not dare to easily use the royal court guards to go south, so as to buy time for the main army." We just have to find a way to create a false impression of embattled singing for him, so that he doesn't dare to really give it a go. ”

Zhao Si's words made Su Xiaohu think for a moment, this kind of small-scale harassment and destruction is indeed the specialty of an elite force like the Flying Eagle Brigade, if it can really set off boundless riots in the city, it will inevitably create a false impression for Ye Hu and other high-level Uighurs, so that they can't make up their minds to break the cauldron and mobilize the Wang Tingwei to go south to destroy the Anxi Corps first, so as to firmly contain this main force in the lost city.

After thinking of a way, Su Xiaohu immediately formulated a specific strategy, compared to Zhao Si just said a rough idea, Su Xiaohu was very meticulous when assigning tasks, and more than 1,000 people from the two brigades of the Flying Eagle Brigade who stayed in the city were divided into more than a dozen squads and began to attack more than a dozen targets marked by Su Xiaohu, including shops, trading markets, and some high-ranking officials and nobles where ordinary people gather every day. According to what Su Xiaohu said, he wanted to publicly reveal his identity, and let all walks of life in Shule City fully realize that the Tiance Army was not far from Shule City, and Shule City was in turmoil at any time.

After the assignment of the task, the Flying Eagle Brigade rested in Shule City for nearly half a month and then revealed its traces again, that night, more than a dozen Uighur dignitaries, including the Uighur royal court general Ge Jian, were attacked and killed by the Eagle Brigade, and their mansion was also burned to the ground by a fire, which made everyone in the city tremble, and this premeditated assassination also reached its peak the next morning, and several restaurants frequented by the Uighurs in the city were burned to death for no reason, and the restaurant shopkeeper, including the diners, was ruthlessly burned to death. These fires broke out in succession almost in a very short period of time, which made everyone in the city realize that this was not a simple fire, but someone was coming. Soon after, the garrison camp in the city was attacked, and dozens of patrolling soldiers were killed on the spot for no reason. The discovery of musket bullets exclusively used by the Tiance Army on the bodies of these dead soldiers further confirmed the previous suspicions. And just when everyone speculated that the Tiance army had arrived, the Xuanying Guard's secret guard also began to secretly spread the news that the Tiance army had taken the Weitou Prefecture and pointed directly at Shule, and the city of Shule was in danger, and it was necessary to recruit strong men as soon as possible to form more troops to protect Shule and resist the westward advance of the Tiance army, and even more, the secret guard began to guide some people to advocate that Saman should be allowed to send troops to Shule as soon as possible, and a major battle in the northwest of Shule City, so as to break the Tang Dynasty army in one fell swoop and save the fate of the Uighurs from danger.

These statements made full use of the psychology of the people, who were constantly battered by successive defeats and bad news, and the Uighurs had never won a victory since facing the Tang Dynasty, losing successive battles, losing all of their troops and losing almost all of their territory to the east. This kind of dissatisfaction with the current situation of the people at the bottom and all walks of life was all led to erupt when the strong enemy pressed the territory, and suddenly formed a huge force, and then this force quickly spread from the people to the upper echelons of the Uighurs, and the assassination of Ge Jian and others was a fuse that ignited the high-level, and Ye Hu's prestige could not suppress this wave. So much so that in the face of the increasingly critical and strange situation in Shule City, Ye Hu, who had already made up his mind to send the guards south to attack the Tiance Army first, reluctantly gave up this idea for the time being, and instead began to mobilize troops to suppress the riots in the city, comprehensively search for the traces of Su Xiaohu and others, and try to get rid of these people in the shortest possible time. In fact, for this Uighur Khan, he saw the actions of the Tiance army very clearly, and naturally he could understand the purpose of the other party, but in the face of the current turbulent situation in Shule, he had no way to mobilize troops to the south despite the opposition of everyone, after all, for him, the hearts of the Uighurs were more important than the annihilation of a lone army of the other party, and he had to make a choice when facing the Tiance army in the lonely city. However, after Ye Hu figured out this, he immediately changed his goal and began to encircle and suppress the Flying Eagle Brigade, and mobilized the extremely elite cavalry in front of the palace to carry out a precise strangulation. Subsequently, the Flying Eagle Brigade led by Su Xiaohu launched an uninterrupted life-and-death struggle with the other party. To Su Xiaohu's surprise, this palace cavalry army, which was about the same number as his own Flying Eagle Brigade, was almost not inferior to his own subordinates in terms of combat effectiveness, and if he wasn't holding the latest weapons, he wouldn't dare to say that he would definitely be able to gain the upper hand. Moreover, on the home turf of the Uighurs, although the combat power of the Flying Eagle Brigade made these people fearful, relying on the advantages of numbers and being able to get support anytime and anywhere, Su Xiaohu had to go into the shadows. This surprised everyone, including Zhao Si, that the Anxi Uighurs were hiding such an elite small force without anyone knowing. It can be said that if it were not for the fact that the Tiance Army was too strong and its combat power reached the point of insolvency after possessing new weapons, this squad would inevitably play the same role as the Flying Eagle Brigade, attacking, killing, harassing and sabotaging and other small-scale special operations, thus bringing unexpected auxiliary effects to the main battlefield.

However, Su Xiaohu, who was killed out of blood, didn't want to let go of the opponent like this, and after turning into the shadows, the Flying Eagle Brigade also avoided the opponent's most advantageous place, and gave full play to his strengths, so in the next few days, the Flying Eagle Brigade, which regained the feeling of being on the grassland back then, continued to perform the remaining tasks assigned by Su Xiaohu while fighting one-on-one with the Xiao cavalry in front of the palace. Therefore, almost all the soldiers of the Flying Eagle Brigade, including Su Xiaohu, all went into battle to fight, and countless people were killed because of the blood shed under the battle, including those ordinary people who also died in vain in the conflict between the two sides. The situation in Shule City became more critical and weird because of this, and these made Ye Hu's second idea also fail, and what made him faintly frightened was that his palace cavalry army was unable to suppress the opponent's small troops that went deep into Shule City, and even the loss of the palace cavalry army made him feel painful. And from this, another thing that scared him also appeared in his heart, since the other party has such a strong combat power, if he attacks the royal court, wouldn't it? With this in mind, on the second day, that is, on the first day of September in the fourth year of the Apocalypse, Ye Hu quietly let go of the strangulation of the Flying Eagle Brigade. At this time, Hammoud in the north also appeared in everyone's sight, and Zhang Sheng survived an unimaginable crisis without knowing it.
