Although for themselves, they can still eat cattle and mutton without food, but today because of the problem of locust plague, the cattle and sheep are already pitiful, and they have to keep some as breeding sheep for next year, so in fact, Jieli did not get any benefit from launching this war except to take back the territory that originally belonged to him. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Therefore, the final conclusion is that the food in Jieli's hands is not enough for all the people in his tribe to survive this cold winter.

Then the final guess is already very obvious, after all, as a jackal who is about to starve to death, Jieli will not sit still, so after slaughtering and co-opting the four pearls, he can breathe a little.

After all, there are a lot of cattle and sheep in the four pearls, and without the four pearls, there are more than 100,000 mouths, and the Jieli department will naturally be able to survive.

It's just that the so-called dead friends don't die in the poor way, so under the guidance of the masters, Jie Li needs a greater victory to exchange materials from the Tang Dynasty, and he also needs iron tools to unify the grassland.

Li Jing threw Jieli's peace negotiation documents aside, stared at the map of the back tent without blinking, and finally landed on Xiangcheng.

"Old Niu, do you think Jieli will take Xiangcheng directly?" After a long time, Li Jing asked Niu Jinda.

In Li Jing's view, whether it is the location of the rest of Jieli's troops and horses, or the situation that the two sides are now on the battlefield to strictly defend each other, he feels that Jieli's next target is likely to be Xiangcheng, which is located six hundred miles west of Shuofang City.

After all, there were only Su Dingfang's 3,000 defenders in Xiangcheng, and it would be much easier for him to take Xiangcheng if he wanted to take Xiangcheng compared to Shuofang City, which was like an impregnable wall.

Even if it's to fill it with the human life of the Ashina people!

"Quite possibly!" Niu Jinda nodded, very much in agreement with Li Jing's analysis.

However, in fact, it is true, the city wall of Xiangcheng is not high, although the three thousand veterans are still brave, but in the face of tens of thousands of Turkic iron cavalry, it is not enough to see, so if Jieli's brain is not sick, Xiangcheng is definitely his best target.

"The last general is willing to take 10,000 horses to Xiangcheng to assist Su Dingfang in defending Xiangcheng!" Xue Wanqian immediately stepped forward, bowed his hand to Li Jing, and asked for his life.

In the case of gunpowder bullets this big kill. After that, Xue Wanqian was very sure that he could defend Xiangcheng with only 10,000 horses. Of course, if there were a little more gunpowder shells, he could even charge at the right time.

Li Jing didn't pay attention to Xue Wanyan, still looking at the map.

For a while, Xue Wanqian was immediately put aside, and it was not to put it down with his hands clenched into fists, nor was it to put it down.

Of course, Li Jing is not pretending to be big, he is really thinking about the problem.

Because through the intelligence of Cen Wenwen, an old spy who came back from a trip to Yinshan, most of the rest of the people on Yinshan were old women and children, except for Jieli's personal guards.

In other words, there is no defense force on the Yin Mountain side at all.

Even if there is, it's quite pitiful.

Therefore, Li Jing considered that if there was a strange soldier who could hide his traces and run for hundreds of miles to take Yinshan......

"What does the chief manager think of General Xue leading the army to Xiangcheng to rescue?" Niu Jinda reminded again.

He also doesn't like Li Jing's attitude, although you are the general manager and control all the Tang soldiers and horses in Mobei, but people are asking for war, aren't they?

You're good, a person plays with himself, and he doesn't pay attention to others at all, doesn't this make the soldiers feel cold?

Hearing Niu Jinda's words, Li Jing reacted.

After pondering for a long time, he said to Niu Jinda: "No! ”

Suddenly, Xue Wanqian almost scolded his mother.

You know, Su Dingfang and him Xue Wanqian are Chai Shao's people, the two were originally brothers in the same trench, and now Su Dingfang is in trouble, where is there a reason not to save him?

What's more, now Shuofang City has no worries about defense, even if he Li Jing dispatches 10,000 horses, it will not be a big loss for Shuofang City.

On the contrary, if there is a new force of 10,000 people, plus the power of gunpowder bullets, it is simply a matter of nine out of ten to hold Xiangcheng.

However, judging from Li Jing's performance now, it is obvious that he has no intention of rescuing Su Dingfang.

If Li Jing does not rescue Su Dingfang, then Xiangcheng can only count on Chai Shao from behind to come over, so that a scene of demolishing the east wall and making up the west wall will be formed, but even so, Chai Shao must ensure the defense of his city.

Therefore, Chai Shao can not give many troops, and in the face of Jieli's tens of thousands of troops, they can obviously only shrink to defend.

The most important thing is that if according to the climate, Jieli will not grind slowly with Su Dingfang at all, and he is likely to directly let his Turkic iron cavalry fight quickly and take Xiangcheng in the fastest time.

And such a result is obviously not what Xue Wanqian wants to see.

"Chief Administrator, Su Dingfang only has three thousand people in his hands!" Xue Wanqian also wanted to remind Li Jing.

He has already made up his mind to pay attention, even if Li Jing is unwilling to send troops, he still has two thousand veterans who originally defended Shuofang City, if he can get a little more gunpowder support from the eleventh day of the month, as long as Xiangcheng can be defended for a month, then those Turks should return to Yinshan.

However, at this time, Cen Wenwen, who was still an old god and happily knelt on the side and pretended to be a master, changed his face greatly.

"Not good!" Cen Wenwen said suddenly: "The old man is ..... before he leaves It seems that Jieli has already issued a military order! ”

Since Li Jing has analyzed that Jieli's target is Xiangcheng, it will almost only be Xiangcheng in Cen Wenwen's opinion, after all, the matter is already obvious.

The 70,000 people of the old department of Tuo Lei and Tiemuhe were guarding the black wind and dragging the 50,000 army in Li Jing's hands, so the Xiangcheng side would become a wood without a fate. Not only that, but the most important thing is that Jieli had already ordered before he set off for Cen Wenwen, and by this time, it was possible that Jieli's army had already arrived in Xiangcheng, and even had already arrived in the city!

"What a sound!" Li Jing immediately praised him, and immediately slowly sat back in his handsome position, and said to Cheng Chumo, who was talking to Zhang Yi behind him: "Where is Cheng Chumo?" ”

"The last general!" Cheng Chumo hurriedly stepped forward and hugged his fists, waiting for Li Jing's military order.

Obviously, Li Jing is about to give an order.

"You take 5,000 soldiers and horses, raid from the left, and go to Xiangcheng to support!" Li Jing ordered: "As for the flame charges, you can bring some!" ”

"The last general commands!"

Cheng Chumo clenched his fists again at the moment, and then quickly walked out of the camp.

Immediately afterwards, Li Jing looked at Niu Jinda again and ordered: "General Niu! ”

Niu Jinda also immediately stepped forward to receive the order.

"You hold this commander-in-charge talisman and lead 20,000 horses to feint with the Black Wind Outlet to win time for Cheng Chumo!"

"The last general obeys!" Niu Jinda hugged his fists, and he quickly got out of the camp at the moment.

"Zhang Yi!" Xue Wanqian looked at Zhang Yi again, and after thinking for a long time, he ordered again: "This chief will give you 5,000 men and horses to defend Shuofang City!" ”

Zhang Yi received the order immediately.
