On the vast grassland, the two armies faced each other, and arrows rained down from the sky, whether it was the Tang Dynasty or the grassland. All suffered heavy losses under the arrows of the other party, because how can flesh and blood be compared to steel?

There were countless casualties on both sides, but there was no possibility of retreating, and the three tribes of the grassland spent a lot of money to let the Tang Dynasty enter the urn, and even abandoned the Liang State that colluded with them, as well as the pseudo-Sui originally supported by the Turks.

In order to introduce the Tang Dynasty's army into the grassland, the three clans even fought several times in the previous year, killing tens of thousands of people. Such a price is just to cripple the main army of the Tang Dynasty once.

If they succeed, not to mention the loss of 100,000 troops in the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing, Li Ji, Hou Junji, Qu Tutong, Liu Hongji and other generals who led the troops into the grassland this time are their best trophies.

These people are all pillar-level figures among the Tang Dynasty generals, and if they are damaged here, nearly half of the Tang Dynasty generals will be swept away. It would be a big victory, and if it succeeded, it would be even more humiliating than the Weishui Alliance in its original history.

But the resistance on the Tang side is also very tenacious, although Hou Junji is a little resentful in his heart, he feels that if he broke through with cavalry before, now harassing the grassland army outside, the situation inside should be alleviated a lot.

But he also didn't want to think about it, if he took the cavalry away, then the rest were foot soldiers, how to resist the charge of the Turkic cavalry? Because there are 50,000 cavalry on the Tang side, it can make the grassland army dare not charge over for the time being.

There are pros and cons to everything, and after Hou Junji broke through with surprise troops, how many enemies could he really contain? What if the other party sent a part to drag Hou Junji, and then accelerated to swallow the infantry, and then turned against Hou Junji's cavalry?

All this is obviously not so simple, it can even be said to be a desperate situation, such a trap that the three grassland clans have spent more than a year arranged, it is completely calculated that every reaction of Datang has been calculated in it.

This is not something that ordinary people can think of, at least there are absolutely no such people in the original grassland three tribes. Such an exquisite arrangement is definitely beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and there must be someone else standing behind them.

But who? All this is still confused, and Li Jing and the others have no time to think about who is calculating all this at this time, because the cavalry of the Turks began to slowly shrink the encirclement, and they wanted to wipe out the Tang army.

On the other side, the two Tang armies of the puppet Sui and Liang have achieved great results, Cheng Biting Jin led the army to attack the city along the way, although the Liang State has the territory of three large counties, the troops are not less than Cheng Biting Jin's.

However, their will to fight is not at all as good as that of the Tang army, and it can even be said that there is no morale at all. All of this is a good thing that Liang Shi of Liang Guo has done. This is a deaf king, and of course to say that he is a king is a lift.

As an anti-king with more than a dozen cities and more than 10,000 troops under his command, Liang Shi did not have the momentum to be an anti-king at all. Wagged his tail in front of the Turks and begged for mercy, and even gave the people under his command to the Turkic army as a military merit.

On the border of Liang near the Turks, many people have no ears, why is this? Because of the agreement between Liang Shidu and the Turks, the Turks close to Liang would cut off the ears of these people as a reward for their military exploits.

Even after the autumn harvest, the Turks would go to the cities and villages in the north of the Liang country to collect taxes and humiliate the people in these places. Although it will not kill wantonly, it is more cruel.

The entire northern part of the Liang Kingdom is like hell on earth, and the trembling living people have lost the desire to live, especially the women, all of whom are living like walking corpses.

And Liang Shi didn't care about this, he stationed a lot of troops in the north to prevent these people from escaping, after all, the Turks still have to collect grain here for the winter.

And he himself built a palace, looted a lot of good things in the territory, lived a drunken life every day, and handed over most of the affairs of the Liang Kingdom to his younger brother to manage, and he was only responsible for enjoyment.

How could such a stupid guy survive? Because of the hook-up deal between him and the Turks. As a result, he was sheltered by the Turks, and the year before last, the Turks went south and were killed by Lu Hanyang most of the army at once.

The northern steppes gradually broke away from the rule of the Turks, which made Liang Shi lose his backer, so he turned his attention to Xue Yantuo.

At this time, when Cheng Biting Jin attacked the Liang State, Liang Shidu was entertaining Xue Yantuo's envoys in the palace, and even looted several beauties in the territory to prepare to honor Xue Yantuo's envoys and pay tribute to Xue Yantuo's Yi Nan Khan.

It's just that now these people on the grassland are not looking here, they are going to wipe out the army that the Tang Dynasty has penetrated deep into the grassland first, and then turn their heads to clean up the two armies that attacked Liang and the puppet Sui.

Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong are in very good condition, they have all taken several cities, and they are moving north at this time, preparing to take down these two small countries in one go.

However, the grassland has fallen into a tragic war, and the two sides have not yet entered the white-knuckle battle, but are constantly consuming arrows, and there are many people on the grassland, and there are enough arrows. Although there are few people on the Datang side, they are more excellent in terms of armament, such as the eight-bull crossbow used in the siege and the trebuchet.

Therefore, the two sides are coming and going, the grassland army keeps shrinking, and the Tang army is constantly changing.

The troops on the steppe fell directly from their horses when they were wounded, and then they were trampled into meat sauce by the friendly troops, and the whole grassland was dyed red, and the earth turned into a swamp.

The wounded soldiers of the Tang army were also pulled into the inner circle, and then treated, attrition was unavoidable, and both sides suffered heavy casualties for a while.

Gradually, the steppe army felt that it was almost over, so it was time for the critical moment to launch a charge, and the Turkic Dieluo Branch, as the leader, Hui Tu Midu, and Xue Yan Tuo Yi Nan met again at this time.

The time for launching the general attack was agreed, and it was determined that after three rounds of salvos, the army would press up in one fell swoop and eat all the Tang army.

At this time, Li Jing and Li Ji also made a decision to break through. The whole army broke through and did not abandon any of the brothers who had not yet died.

This is the biggest difference between the farming people of the Tang Dynasty and the nomads of the grassland: the people on the grassland value the result, and it doesn't matter how much they pay to take down the Tang army.

And although the generals of the Tang Dynasty also value the results and know the truth that Ci is not in charge of the army, they will not give up any of their brothers when they really face the choice.

At this time, Lu Hanyang, who was an immortal of the Tang Dynasty, had already entered the grassland, and he could see that tragic battlefield from afar.
