Chapter 487: War Snake Valley 5
"Smack...."
The sound of a slap hitting the case table spread throughout the tent.
"This is your guarantee, three days, thousands of warriors have been killed and wounded, but they still haven't taken the Snake Valley, are you still the generals of the Great Turks, or those warrior armies who fought all over the northern frontier and made the enemy tremble when they mention it, some remnants of the defeated generals can block your way forward, what else can you do?"
A low, but extremely piercing roar echoed through the tent.
And all the Turkic generals in the entire big tent, regardless of their official positions, did not dare to open their mouths to refute, so they could only bow their heads and endure in silence.
In this Turkic group, there is only Ashin Yuanzhen, a person with a noble status in the Turkic army, except for the Turkic Great Khan Ashina Guduolu.
Although Ashide Yuanzhen has a noble status in the Turkic army, for various reasons, he usually brings kindness, even if there are occasional generals in the army who make mistakes and are punished by Ashina, he will also intercede as appropriate, therefore, in the entire Turkic army, Ashide Yuanzhen is deeply loved by the soldiers, not to mention that he angrily reprimanded the generals like today.
The reason for this is that the final attack on the Snake Valley was not smooth, and after three days of hard fighting, thousands of Turkic soldiers were killed and wounded, but they still did not take the last position of the Snake Valley.
"Lord Qiqi, this matter is all a dereliction of duty on our part, and please punish the adult, but in any case, please give me another chance, and the last general will promise that before sunset today, I will definitely take the snake valley, otherwise, the last general will come to see me."
was reprimanded by Ashed Yuanzhen, although these generals could not refute because of Ashed Yuanzhen's identity, but they also had great anger in their hearts.
"Hmph, before sunset, you said this three days ago, what is the result, could it be that you still have to take the lives of innocent soldiers but you can't vent your anger."
Ashide Yuanzhen then roared.
"Pedal ......."
Just when Ashid Yuanzhen roared, the sound of hurried footsteps outside the big tent suddenly stopped, and there was no need to look, everyone in the big tent knew that the person who came stopped outside the big tent.
"Who's out there, what's not going to happen."
Probably thinking that the reprimand just now was a bit excessive, Ashid Yuanzhen opened his mouth to ask.
Hearing Ashide Yuanzhen's inquiry, a clerk-like person next to him walked out quickly, and after a while, he turned back again.
"Returning to your lordship, it's not a big deal, it's just that the spy in charge of the Gu Ergon came to report, saying that yesterday under his command, there was a pair of spies who were supposed to come back last night, but they didn't expect to come back until now, and he wants to ask you to allow him to send someone to look for it."
"What....... Quick, get the bones in. ”
Everyone in the big tent was stunned by the scene in front of them, in front of them, Master Ashid Yuanzhen, who had never been in a hurry or slow, and was also in the chest, actually turned extremely pale in an instant, and his expression was as frightened as if he had seen a ghost.
In this case, even the sluggish Turkic generals knew that something big must have happened.
Because of Ashide Yuanzhen's strange expression, everyone was stunned, but fortunately, the clerk was still alert, and immediately trotted to the door of the big tent and brought in a stout Turkic warrior.
"The little ones have seen the adults, and the adults are auspicious and healthy."
Gu Ergon, who had never seen such a big scene, felt trembling all over his body after being brought in by the clerk, it was not excitement, but he was frightened, after all, he was a hundred households, and in this big tent, the lowest official position is a thousand households, or the kind of powerful thousand households, not to mention that the person in the middle of the big tent is one of the best people in the entire Turkic.
This situation, not to mention experiencing it personally, even if he dreamed, he had never dreamed of it, but today it suddenly came true, how could he not feel excited, of course, after the excitement was fear.
"You are Guergon, the hundred households in charge of the spies to investigate the situation."
Ashide Yuanzhen asked.
"Returning to my lord, the small one is Gu Ergon, who is temporarily responsible for the exploration of the area north of the camp."
Gu Ergon was both excited and frightened in his heart, but he still felt in his heart that Ashde Yuanzhen, a big man, didn't know what was going on, and he spoke extremely strangely, and after hearing what he said, he kept muttering what he said back and forth in a low voice, like a repeater.
Of course, he felt strange in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, and even he thought that all the big people were like this.
"You tell me what the hell is going on, remember, from beginning to end, don't leave anything out, understand?"
"Yes, the little one understands."
Although he didn't understand why Ashide Yuanzhen was so concerned about those spies who had lost their traces, since he wanted to hear it, Guergon could only say it honestly.
"Lord Qiyu, here's the thing, we ......... yesterday"
It's not complicated, in fact, Guergon doesn't know much, just describe everything from beginning to end.
When Gu Ergon finished speaking, there was silence in the whole tent, and everyone stared at Asted Yuanzhen with puzzled eyes, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"Hahaha, hahaha, it's so calculating, it's really calculating, I didn't expect it, I fought Yan all day long, and today I was finally pecked by the swallow, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that there was still this kind of strategy among the Khitans, hahaha......"
Ashed Yuanzhen didn't have the idea of explaining to everyone, but after sitting there for a long time, he raised his head and laughed violently, and at the same time said words that everyone couldn't understand.
"Big ...... My lord, I don't know what's going on, but there's something wrong with those missing spies. A Turkic general stood up and asked, at the signal of everyone.
"Why, don't you still understand, this is just a trap, a decoy, and a plan to annihilate all our 50,000 troops."
Hearing the general's inquiry, Ashide Yuanzhen said with a wry smile on his face.
"Buzz ......."
Asthide Yuanzhen's words were like pouring a spoonful of cold water into the boiling hot oil, and the whole big tent exploded at once.
"Impossible, how is this possible, who has such great ability, if they want to annihilate us, they can't rely on those Khitan dogs who shrank their heads like turtles."
"Did you guess wrong, 50,000 troops, who has this strength, besides, we Turkic warriors are the best hunters in the steppe, if you want to surround us, it is simply impossible, even if the enemy really surrounds us, we can successfully escape."
..................
"Hey............"
The roar in the big tent made Ashid Yuanzhen feel disappointed, and even for the first time, he felt a little depressed about his own future and the future of the entire Turkic tribe.
If before, even before Guergon came in, someone said that the Turks who had hundreds of thousands of troops and fought all over the northern steppe would be completely destroyed, he would definitely think that this person had gone crazy, but now, he was not so determined.
Speaking of Ashide Yuanzhen, he is also a person with an extremely firm personality and ideals, otherwise, he would not have given up his official position as the protector of the Anbei Metropolitan Government a few years ago and took refuge in Ashina Guduolu, who had just started at that time.
In the eyes of all aliens, Ashid Yuanzhen is simply crazy, saying that Datang at that time was the center of the world, it is a bit exaggerated, but to say that Datang at that time was the center of the entire East, it is absolutely no one to object, and the official position of Datang, not to mention that it is a high-grade official, even if it is a small official who does not enter the stream, it is also the object of envy of those aliens, just like those world-class large companies now, even if you are just looking at the door inside, in the eyes of outsiders, it is also a noble status.
But in this case, Ashde Yuanzhen actually did it, but history has proved that Ashde Yuanzhen's choice was correct, after taking refuge in Ashina Guduolu, who was just emerging at the time, Ashina Guduolu was indeed overjoyed, just like Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang and Zhu Yuanzhang got Liu Bowen.
Not only gave Ashi De Yuanzhen great respect, but also handed over all the soldiers and horses to him for mobilization, in the face of this trust, Ashide Yuanzhen did not live up to the trust of Ashina Guduolu, just a few years is time, under the planning of Ashide Yuanzhen, Ashina Guduolu rose rapidly, led the army to sweep through the northern Xinjiang, and even the Anbei Protectorate, which previously ruled the entire northern Xinjiang, was also driven out of the grassland by the Turkic forces.
It can be said that as long as the Turkic army can successfully defeat the Tiele tribes this time, the entire north of the Yellow River in northern Xinjiang will belong to the Turkic forces.
It's just that sometimes things are so wonderful, life and death, a step into heaven or falling into the quagmire, just at an extremely inconspicuous time.
"Do you really think that those spies disappeared for no reason, and besides, you have never doubted that those Khitans who we have worked so hard to find have not found, why did they appear in the Snake Valley so suddenly, you know, the Snake Valley is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is famous on the grassland, even if the Khitan people don't understand, they will always have guides, don't they even know those guides?"
"My lord, you mean to say that all this was planned, and this was deliberately done by the enemy, but why is this, do they really think that they can annihilate all of our 50,000 elite troops?" A Turkic general asked cautiously.
Although most of the Turkic generals found what Ashed Yuanzhen said a little difficult to understand, the habit they had developed over the years still made them accustomed to obeying Ashed Yuanzhen's orders, even if the orders were somewhat incomprehensible.
"Whether we can annihilate them all, I don't know, but I know that we are caught in a trap this time, and if we want to get out, I'm afraid it won't be easy, since the enemy dares to kill our spies, it proves that the enemy has made all preparations and is not afraid of being known by us, if my expectations are right, the enemy is probably not too far away from us now."
...........................
"Lord Duan, the enemy didn't know why, and suddenly stopped attacking."
Covered in blood, he was even more miserable than the most down-to-earth beggar, and he ran to Duan Jian with red eyes and said. After several days of hard fighting, it was no longer hard to live alone.
"Hahaha, it seems that our arrangement has been discovered by that Asted Yuanzhen." Duan Jian said with a smile.
"Oh, it's been discovered, it'...... What can I do? ”
Duhuo was no longer stunned at first, and then asked nervously.
"Rest assured, the encirclement has been formed, even if it is discovered, there is nothing, after these three days of attack, the Turkic army has lost thousands of people, and now they are less than 30,000 at most, 30,000 exhausted soldiers, in the face of 40,000 elites who are recuperated, as long as they don't make mistakes, what is the result, think about it, now the Duhuo leader and the Khitan warriors need to sit there well, waiting to see the show, I believe that soon, the Duhuo leader will lead the army and annihilate the Turkic army in one fell swoop, And the news of the killing of Ashed Yuanzhen, a Turkic lord, will spread throughout the northern grasslands, and when the time comes, the fame of the Duhuo Lord and the entire Duhuo tribe will become the object of worship of the people of the grasslands,"
Duan Jian patted the shoulder of Duhuo, who was no longer alive, and said with a sigh.
Although Duan Jian said that he would no longer live alone, in fact, he was also sighing for himself in his heart, thinking that Ashide Yuanzhen, who had contributed to the rise of the Turks in history and made significant contributions to the development of the Turks, was going to die here because of himself, Duan Jian couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement in his heart.
...................
"Lord Shi, since we are not afraid of being discovered by the Turkic spies, why don't we hurry up and march, if the Turks take the opportunity to escape, we will miss the opportunity."
Thirty miles away from the Snake Valley, a pair of boundless cavalry was slowly moving forward, and the person at the head was none other than the guerrilla general of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, Shi Daring.
Although Duan Jian has also fought a lot of battles over the years, fundamentally speaking, he is a literati, and he does not have much experience in leading troops to fight, when he was in the south, he relied on generals such as Chen Guotai, and when he arrived here, he also needed a capable general, which is why he favored Shi Daring.
Therefore, after formulating the plan for the Snake Valley, not only a batch of military equipment was transferred from the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, but also Shi Daring and more than 1,000 elites under his command were also transferred, and this time Duan Jian led more than 10,000 Khitan soldiers to delay the Turkic army in the Snake Valley, and all the soldiers and horses on the periphery were all handed over to Shi Daring to command.
"Hmph, escape, more than ten days of hard conquest, don't say it's a flesh and blood person, even if it's a person who is cast in copper and iron, he can't hold on, if they escape now, it's actually more beneficial to us, we don't need to fight to the death with them, just keep chasing behind them and beat the water dogs, understand!"
Looking at the Duhuo who was wearing a Khitan fur hat but wearing a Tang Dynasty armor, Shi Daring said with disdain in his heart.
