"Your Highness, I am just a martial artist wielding a sword and a bow, and I never thought that there would be so many calculations in the future. [Fengyun Novel Reading Network] "Lero replied without humility or arrogance.

"Really?" Ye Hu obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't bother to continue to think about it: "Forget it, you can say whatever you like." ”

Leluo still wanted to argue, but he heard Prince Ye Hu suddenly say to himself: "Strange, that Scheming Sihan is thoughtful, how can he not see through Gao Xianzhi's intentions?" However, this is also good, Gelulu is already strong and strong, and if he sits further large, it will not be beautiful. Fortunately, what Moura Black Mountain likes is the stupid eldest son, and if Mouraludo becomes the Ye Hu of the Qarluq Department in the future, it will not become a stumbling block to our westward expansion. ”

"Your Highness, 20,000 Qarluq have already gone north, and tomorrow our army will also rush to Talas City. Since the expedition, whether it is besieging Tuozhi Castle or pursuing Naju Che Bishi in the south, the casualties of our army have been minimal. However, the battle after that should not be so easy. "At the mention of the Qarluqs, Tolero thought of future wars.

"Katsusa Apo, you haven't finished your words yet, have you?" Prince Ye Hu smiled coldly.

"Your Highness, before setting out on the expedition, the Khan repeatedly told your subordinates to protect Your Highness and do your best to save the lives of your sons. Judging by all the intelligence, Abu? Muslim has a strong army, and there will be a dragon battle with the Tang army. If the Tang army goes well, everything is easy to say; If the Tang army loses, please also ask His Highness to put the lives of the warriors under his command first. ”

"Katsusa Apo, do I have any other options?" Prince Ye Hu's tone was not good.

Towlero was silent, letting the raindrops whipped like a whip on his robe.

"Alas!" Ye Hu sighed lightly: "Riding a horse and stepping on the enemy's formation, dancing a knife to cut the head of a thief, what a happy thing!" But it's always boring to be entangled with so many calculations and considerations. ”

Towlero looked at the heroic Ye Hu, his expression was like a lone wolf in the jungle and suddenly found a milk tiger with cold eyes.

Ye Hu didn't care about the complicated gaze of Towlero, he just stared coldly at the raindrops in the night, and was silent for a long time......

The summer rain over Tuozhi Castle was like a note, but somewhere in the mountain forest between Tuozhi Castle and Sa Mojian, there was only a little sporadic light rain.

In the mountains and forests, dense cowhide tents are like giant mushrooms, allowing raindrops to slide through the tent skin. Inside the mushroom, the Khorasan cavalry and the remnants of the Shiguo army were all asleep. Around the camp, there are all kinds of bright posts and secret posts.

It was lonely and drizzling, and it should have been the best time to fall asleep, but Qi Yade, the general of the Great Food, walked anxiously around the cramped tent without any sleep.

After receiving the governor's order at Wuhushui on 11 May, Qi Yade hurried back to Samojian without stopping. He was holding Abu? Muslim's military order was to recruit as many camels and servants as possible from among the Sogdians.

On the 14th of May, after assisting the king of Shiguozheng, Na Ju Che Bishi, to kill the vice-king Qu Le, they also rushed to Samojian and joined Qi Yade.

On May 16, Abu? After Muslim led his main force to Samo, Qiyad led his 7,000 Khorasan cavalry to the north lightly. Although he sent many scouts to investigate the battle situation in the south of Tuozhi City, his destination was not Tuozhi City.

On May 23, when Qiyad, who was roaming between the cities of Sa Mojian and Tuozhi, discovered the army of the country of Bakhana, he immediately took the initiative to show himself and easily defeated the other party.

The strength of the Bahanna ** team is very weak,

If Ziyad is willing, he can completely annihilate the enemy. But he obeyed the orders of the governor and only defeated them, but did not massacre them on a large scale.

At the time of the battle, the only thing that surprised Ziyad slightly in the country of Bakhana was the young general who led the team. Inspired by him, the cavalry of Bakhana made a brave charge, only to be overwhelmed by the short spears and swords of the Khorasan cavalry.

"This is a proud lion cub, but unfortunately born in the flock, he can't grow into a mighty lion after all. Unless he can find his own kind. Qiyad looked at the young general being dragged away by the timid guards of the Bahanna country, and sighed with emotion.

Out of respect for the warriors, Ziyad stopped the Khorasan cavalry, who were trying to hunt down the young general.

After defeating Bahanna**, Qiyad led his troops to hide their tracks, lurked north, and stood by in the south of Tuozhi City.

On May 25, Qi Yad received the last 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Shi Kingdom who had broken through the siege of Naju Chebi Shi and the last remaining soldiers and horses of the Shi Kingdom.

After the two armies converged, Qi Yade and Na Ju Che Bishi hurriedly went south and hid in the mountains and forests to avoid being searched and captured by the Tang army. Fortunately, the Shi ** team was familiar with the terrain and led the Qi Yade Department to constantly circle in the mountains and forests, and finally got rid of the pursuit of the Tang army.

After the Tang army retreated, the two armies lurked in the mountains and forests north of the city. The camping place was located at the junction of the three kingdoms of Shi, Kang, and Cao, and Na Kuche Bishi still had a wide influence here, and the supply of the two armies was not a problem.

Na Juche Nose Shi tried Qi Yade's next combat strategy many times, but Qi Yad directly refused.

Two days later, when the news of the massacre and plundering of the Anxi army in the city of Tuozhi was spread to the land of Sogdia by the inhabitants who had escaped by chance, the angry Naju Che Shi broke into the camp of Ziyad like a mad dog, ignoring the obstruction of his guards.

"Is this the Governor's plan?" Haven't we Shiguo people shed enough blood? How exactly are you going to deal with the Tang Army? Could it be that they were hiding in the mountains and forests, waiting for the Don army to retreat on its own? ”

Qi Yade looked coldly at the hoarse King Shi Guozheng and was silent.

When the strength of the car was exhausted and he gasped for breath, Ziyad said slowly: "Your Majesty, yesterday evening, the governor led an army of 150,000 to besiege the city of Talas. The 30,000 Tang army will soon be defeated by the governor. I don't know if this news can ease the grief in your heart a little. ”

After hearing this, Na Che Na Shi somewhat understood, but he didn't dare to believe it. He was overjoyed when Na Juyuanen, who was more fluent in the big food, had translated Ziyad's words in full.

"What a plan for the Governor!" Na Che Nose Shi's face became faster than the flowing clouds in the high mountains: "General Qi Yade, what do you need our Shi people to do next?" ”

"Wait!" Qi Yade stared at the father and son with contempt, and said coldly: "Wait for the governor's order, don't act rashly. ”

"Do you have to wait?" The car nose Shi was a little helpless.

"Well......" Qi Yad muttered, "I remember that the Kudulu special service once said that the Tang army would not slaughter cities in general. This time, Gao Xianzhi opened a killing spree in Tuozhi City, is it more abnormal? ”

"After being reminded by the general, it's really a bit weird!" Na Juche Shi echoed in a loud voice.

"Then in the last few days, you will spread the news of the Tang Army's massacre of the city as soon as possible

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) spread and called on more Sogdians to come to our army's aid. Qi Yad commanded: "I believe that after defeating the Beiting army, no matter what method the governor plans to use to annihilate the Anxi army, it will always be no harm to have more soldiers and horses under our command. ”

"The general commanded! Xiao Wang went to organize the manpower. Na Cha Nose took his son and left Ziyad's tent respectfully.

Over the next two days, angry Sogdians, instigated by Najuchesh, came to the camp to join the battle. Their weapons are rudimentary, but they are better than nothing.

Although Ziyad temporarily calmed down the chariot nose, he himself was extremely anxious.

Although the governor's plan was exquisite, Ziyad realized from the beginning that the whole plan had a weakness. That is, the governor must defeat the Beiting army with a thunderous force as soon as possible, otherwise he will once again fall into the predicament of being caught between the Tang army inside and outside.

According to the information that Mutaia brought back from Tingzhou, the combat strength of the Tang army was extremely strong, and it was by no means comparable to that of the Sogdians. Therefore, Qi Yad was faintly worried, and he was not sure if the governor would be able to eat the Beiting army as soon as possible.

When he raised his doubts to the Governor on the banks of the Dark Rim, Abu? Muslim approvingly: "I am very pleased that Ziyad can see at a glance the risks of this plan. But how can you use troops against the enemy without taking any risks? Actually, I have thought about it repeatedly, and the risk is not impossible, but it is really small. The strength of the Tang army is not weak, but the Tang army that can attack Talas City is only 30,000, and there are only 10,000 Beiting soldiers among them. Hamid had 3,000 Khorasan cavalry and 10,000 Shiguo soldiers in his hands. It is quite possible that he will withstand the siege of the Don army. When I arrived with the main force, I could unite with the outside and outflank the Tang army in one fell swoop. Even if Hamid did not hold the city, the Tang army would have suffered heavy losses in the siege, and it would be an opponent of my army of more than 100,000 troops. Therefore, it is worth taking a gamble. ”

Impressed by the Governor's meticulous analysis, Ziyad also believed that the Governor could quickly annihilate the Beiting Army in a short period of time, and then quickly move south to Tuozhi City.

And Qi Yade's task was to surprise the Tang army from the south when the governor and Gao Xianzhi were in a decisive battle.

However, three days had passed since the Governor had besieged the city of Talas, and no new military information had been heard. Could something have changed? Ziyad's heart became more and more uneasy.

"General, urgent military situation!" The guards ran into Ziyad's tent out of breath. Qi Yad had specially told him that as long as there was military information, it must be delivered to him immediately.

"Where did it come from?" Without waiting for the guards to present it, the anxious Ziyad took the note from the guard's hand.

"Centurion Mutaia sent the news to Samojian by carrier pigeons, and then sent it from Samojian to the camp by fast horses." The guards succinctly explained the source of the information.

Ziyad unfolded the note, only to glance at it, his face shocked. However, after carefully reading it several times, his eyebrows widened, and he sighed with a smile: "No matter how strong the Tang army is, it will eventually be defeated by the governor's men!" ”

The guards didn't know what the military information on the note was, but when he saw that the general was no longer irritable, his heart was also happy.

"Is it dawn?" Ziyad asked suddenly.

"General, it's been a while before we see the sun!" The guard hurriedly replied.

"I can finally sleep peacefully. Come and wake me up at sunrise. Tomorrow, we're on our way! When Ziyad had finished giving his explanation, he lay down on the carpet and fell asleep.
