Since the departure of Pei Xingjian, the general of the Tang Dynasty, Ashina Duzhi has led his troops to attack Qiuzi City for the third time, the first two times twice, which makes him want to eat the young man in the city alive!

He knew that the Tang army was brave and good at fighting, and it was difficult to storm the defense line they formed, and as for the siege, Ashina Duzhi never thought that it would succeed once. br>

He came here again and again, just to put some psychological pressure on the young general who is now guarding Qiuzi City, hoping to paralyze the opponent before attacking his unprepared siege city.

Or let this young general mess up because of his own soldiers in the city, because of the huge oppressive force.

But what he didn't expect was that the first two times when the soldiers came to Qiuzi City, they made him angry and fled back to the grassland, not to mention that his strategic goal had been disintegrated and eliminated.

Every time he felt that he was standing outside the range of the Tang Dynasty's bow and arrow, but every time a bow and arrow could hit the person next to him, bringing out a handful of gorgeous blood flowers by the way.

About one hundred and fifty steps away from the city gate, he was shot by the Tang Dynasty's bow and arrow, and it can be said that he underestimated the brave soldiers in the opponent's formation.

So he retreated to a distance of two hundred steps from the city gate, but he didn't expect that the situation was still the same as the first touch, and the warriors around him were still shot by him several times, which made him grit his teeth, but he could only continue to retreat helplessly.

At a distance of two hundred and fifty paces, this is a distance that even the strongest warrior cannot effectively kill.

After shooting arrows at such a distance, the arrows can only fly here reluctantly, and they can gently separate the flying arrows without even pulling out their weapons.

But this time, it was obvious that he still underestimated the young general in Qiuzi City, and this time the young general was standing on the city tower in full armor, holding a wooden stick in his hand and measuring it in front of him.

Li Hong put down the binoculars and asked Fang Zhan next to him: "Can you be sure that he is Ashina Duzhi?" ”

"Back to Daduhu, yes, the one with a black cloak on the half of his body is Ashina Duzhi, the last general has already sent people to follow them two times before, and each time the route they withdrew is inconsistent, it is difficult to grasp, obviously they are also afraid that we will set up an ambush on the road." Fang Zhan took another telescope and said after putting it down.

"Okay, let's try it today, I don't believe it yet, can't the grassland have the final say on them, are Quan Yi and Lawless ready?" Li Hong handed the telescope in his hand to Hua Meng next to him, and then took a big horn in Xia Zhi's hand.

Lawless and Quan Yi each led a thousand cavalry, and had already set up an ambush five miles in front of Qiuzi City, and this time, Li Hong planned not to let Ashina go back.

"Hey, who is Ashina Duzhi, come out and squeak. You are surrounded by us, and I now command you to lay down your arms and surrender immediately. Li Hong took a horn made of bark and shouted to Ashina Duzhi outside.

Ashina Duzhi looked at the few generals around him, then looked back at the 30,000 horses he led, snorted, and motioned for a general next to him to stand up and speak.

"Fang Zhan, prepare to launch the arrow." Li Hong watched a figure slowly come out of it, and said with some excitement.

"Yes, Daduhu." Fang Zhan took the arrows that had been prepared a long time ago, and after waiting for the sniper bow and crossbow to be fired, he immediately fired the arrows, and ordered Quan Yi and Lawless, who were lying in ambush on both sides of Ashinadu's support, five miles away, to attack.

Li Hong looked at the figure that slowly walked out with some excitement, and then asked Hua Meng to hand the telescope to the crossbowman next to him, and said: "Don't pay attention to the figure that came out, it must not be Ashina Duzhi, take a look with the telescope yourself." ”

After Li Hong finished speaking, he was still not at ease, and he lifted a bow and crossbow from his feet, this bow and crossbow were the same as the bows and crossbows placed on the city tower, but the bow and crossbow with the longest range and the greatest lethality, and it was also this expedition to the Western Regions, Li Zhi specially gave him twenty pieces for him to use.

A cold, threaded arrow was placed into the card slot, and as Li Hong's hand cranked the handle, the gears on the crossbow made a soft clicking sound, and the pulley controlled the bowstring to slowly retreat until it was clamped into the card slot.

After placing it on the battlements, he began to aim, and the position of Ashina Duzhi had already been locked by him, but because of the blocking of other soldiers, Li Hong could only wait for this person to come out, and then shoot after flashing a trace of gap.

"Report ......." Suddenly, a scout burst onto the city and shouted.

Li Hong continued his aiming action and asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”

"Back to Daduhu, I just received news that Wenlu and several other towns have been invaded by the Ashina Duzhi cavalry." The scout shouted.

"yes, got it." Li Hong was unmoved, and continued to aim at Ashina Duzhi, one hundred and fifty steps away from the city, and said lightly.

"Dadu Hu, do you want me to lead the troops to ...... immediately." Fang Zhan asked a little nervously.

"No, this is Ashinadu's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, he is waiting for us to mess up now, so that he can take advantage of the situation to attack Qiuzi." Li Hong decisively pulled the board machine as he spoke.

As the arrow made a sound of breaking through the air, a black remnant of the arrow, as if it had torn through the air, shot towards Ashina Duzhi's throat in the blink of an eye with a trace of vibration.

Before the sound of the arrows breaking through the air fell, the sound of arrows immediately sounded in the sky.

"Didn't shoot!" Li Hong grabbed the binoculars, only to see the Western Turkic cavalry team in a panic, the figure who slowly walked out, at this time slowly fell from the horse to the ground, which was shot by another crossbowman.

And Li Hong observed again and again, only to see that his arrow hit the collarbone of Ashina Duzhi, and did not hurt his life.

"Spoiled." Li Hong cursed in annoyance, and then looked at the Western Turkic cavalry team that had not yet completely fallen into panic at this time.

But it wasn't until he saw smoke and dust gradually rising on both sides behind the Turkic cavalry that someone slowly stretched his brows, and at this time, the shaking of the earth naturally disturbed the Turkic cavalry.

The Khan's injury had already made their army unstable, and now there were Tang soldiers behind them, so the Western Turkic cavalry was confused, and the whole team suddenly became loose.

Ashina forgot to glance at the tower of Qiuzi City with hatred, at such a distance, they could still shoot such powerful arrows, obviously the other party deliberately induced himself the first few times, in order to find out the direction of his retreat, or to ambush soldiers in the rear.

But I was really fooled! His men had already bandaged his wound with a white cloth, but the arrow was pulled out by himself: "Withdraw." ”

"Surrender quickly, Ashina Duzhi, otherwise I won't be so polite if I get caught." The voice of the elder on the city tower was heard very clearly by Ashina because of the thing on his lips, as if he was talking not far from him.

Ashina Duzhi had no time to pay attention to Li Hong's ridicule and provocation, and under the escort of his own soldiers, he led the team to retreat from the flank of Qiuzi City.

"Open the city gate, and Tiefutu pursues." Li Hong looked at the Western Turkic cavalry, which was already in disarray, and ordered loudly.

The first two times he showed weakness, just to paralyze Ashina Duzhi, when he was one hundred and fifty paces away, he shot a distance of one hundred and fifty paces, and he didn't shoot any more than one step.

At 200 paces, it is natural that he will only shoot at a distance of 200 paces, and this plan is to let Ashina Duzhi believe that no arrow can shoot a target at a distance of 200 paces according to common sense.

The 1,000 cavalry led by Lawless and Quan Yi are now like a column of wolves on the grassland, the whole column does not have a single noisy sound, the silent battle spirit and the soldiers aiming with bows and crossbows in their hands, exuding a fierce and fierce iron-blooded killing atmosphere, quickly pursuing the cavalry of the Ashina Duzhi.

On the cavalry, the cavalry of the Western Turks is naturally very powerful, but the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty is also not bad, and many years of war have made the Tang people adapt to life on horseback, so when pursuing, they are not inferior at all.

In addition, Li Hong, who has always protected calves, likes to equip the best to his troops first, so these war horses are also high-grade war horses from Tuyuhun, whether it is endurance, physical strength, explosiveness, compared with the war horses of the Western Turks, they all have certain advantages.

What's more, today's war horses are still wearing iron shoes, if they can't chase the war horses of Ashina Duzhi, then Li Hong can find a piece of tofu by himself and think about it, when is it appropriate to die on it.

Li Hong, who was the ninth and tenth generations, once followed the people to Tu Baiqi to fight, looking at the Ashina Duzhi who was unable to form an army, leading the remnants to run in the direction of Wenlu, and he was so excited that he immediately stepped on the war horse and chased him out of the city.

"Your Highness, no." Xiao Xuejiao snorted, and without looking, someone ran out of the city gate on his food stamps, and two hundred cavalry randomly poured out behind him to follow closely on both sides.

Li Hong ignored the shouts of the four women and the two eunuchs behind him, and rode wildly on horseback, while the two hundred cavalry on both sides followed silently on both sides.

Their mission on the battlefield is simple, to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from harm, no matter where they are. Moreover, they only obeyed Li Hong's orders alone, and the others instructed them not to move, even Bai Chun and others.

The pursuit of forty or fifty miles made Ashina Duzhi exhausted, and the two rich villages in the Wenlu area were naturally looted by them, and even some old and young women and children died tragically in their hands.

Li Hong rode on horseback gloomily, looking at the small town of Wenlu, which used to be the governor of the Tang Dynasty, but now it has become like a ruin because of the indiscriminate killing of Ashina Duzhi.

"These people are supposed to be their people." After Li Hong finished inspecting the small town, he looked at many crying people and muttered.
