"Zhang Gongzi, oh, no, now I should call you the Duke of Dingguo!" Mo Jian saw Zhang Baoer, and he really had mixed feelings.

Zhang Baoer shook her head and said, "According to our Datang habit, you should call me brother-in-law." ”

Mo Jianlian was slightly stunned, and then laughed and said, "You are still Zhang Bao'er back then, you haven't changed." ”

Zhang Bao'er also smiled: "You are still the king of Zuo Xian back then, you haven't changed, but ......"

Speaking of which, Zhang Baoer deliberately sold a pass.

"But what?"

"However, your Zuo Xian King's war is far less than before." Zhang Baoer joked.

"Dingguo Gong, you really expected it, we really lost!" Lust Valley sighed on the side.

Que Secret Service also said: "Yes, Dingguo Gong, why do you conclude that we will definitely be defeated?" ”

"You don't need to ask me about this, Lord Tutun must have analyzed the reason for you, but there is one thing I didn't expect......"

"What?"

"I didn't expect you to lose so quickly, and according to my assumptions, you would have to hold out for two or three months. If I'm not mistaken, you only fought one battle, and then you retreated in a hurry, right? ”

Tunyugu sighed and said, "You're right, we fought a battle with the Great Cannibal in Kangguo, and we were defeated, so we decided to return to Mobei. ”

"How did you lose?" Zhang Baoer asked.

Mo Jianlian smiled bitterly: "To be honest, I still haven't figured out how we lost!" ”

"Oh? Tell me, what the hell is going on? Zhang Baoer said curiously.

Mo Jian didn't even hide it, and told the story again.

After the Turks entered the territory of Kang, they did not encounter the resistance of the great cannibals, but when they arrived at the city of Kangju, the capital of Kangguo, the Turks were dumbfounded. They came on a long journey, and they did not carry siege equipment, and even if they did, the Turks were not good at siege equipment.

In the end, it was Tunyugu who came up with an idea and wrote a challenge to Qu Dibo, the main general of the Great Food, asking for a decisive battle outside the city.

The big cannibals are in the city, and the Turks have no way to attack the city, and there is no way to do it in the Tun Desire Valley, and they don't have the luxury of expecting Qu Dibo to fight.

Unexpectedly, Qu Dibo readily agreed.

The two armies formed outside the city, and a major battle began.

There are 30,000 people in the Great Food Army, plus 40,000 in Kangguo's subordinate army, a total of 70,000 people. The Turks have a total of 100,000 iron horsemen, which are significantly stronger than the Great Eclipse in terms of both numbers and combat effectiveness. What people can't figure out is that the battle ended in only two hours, and the Turks were defeated and chased out dozens of miles by the great cannibals until the Turks were driven out of the Kang border.

The Turks were inexplicably defeated in Kang, and they had a crisis of faith in successive wars.

Why fight?

Why stay in the far West?

The thought of returning home suddenly came to the minds of the Turks, and it was irrepressible. Mo Jianlian completely lost interest in continuing to fight the Great Cannibal, and his heart was full of bitterness.

So, the brigade hurried north.

……

"So, the army of the Great Cannibals has not only light cavalry, heavy cavalry, but also infantry?" Zhang Baoer was very surprised.

Mo Jianlian nodded and said: "That's right, their heavy cavalry, strong armor, completely covered all over the body, even the eyes are completely protected, not only people have armor, even the war horses are also fully clothed, a cavalry is like a tall statue of the god of war, when they advance, it is like a steel city wall pressing head-on, our bows and arrows and weapons will not work against them." ”

Zhang Bao'er nodded and said: "Heavy cavalry is a kind of expensive army, the armor they are equipped with is very expensive, and the heavy cavalry has relatively high requirements for the selection of war horses, I didn't expect the big cannibals to have heavy cavalry." ”

"And their light cavalry, although their light cavalry is small in number, their horses are taller than ours, their blades are sharper than ours, and even they are braver than us in battle, and in the process of fighting, we will not take advantage of the slightest. ”

Zhang Bao'er's face was a little solemn, the light cavalry of the Turks was already very strong, and it was difficult for the Tang cavalry to win against the Turkic cavalry in the same number. The Turks, with their superiority in numbers, could not resist the light cavalry of the Great Eater, and it seemed that the Great Cannibal was more difficult to deal with than expected.

"The most troublesome thing for us was their infantry, and after the heavy cavalry and light cavalry assault disrupted our position, their infantry lined up in a phalanx, closely following the pace of the cavalry, and annihilated the scattered and lone Turkic cavalry. You know, the Turkic army did not have infantry! So ......"

Zhang Bao'er said: "So, after this battle, you decided to retreat, because you can't find a way to deal with them!" ”

"So to speak!" Murphy does not deny it.

"Thank you, King Zuoxian, for telling me this!" Zhang Baoer seems to have understood.

Tunyu Gu suddenly asked on the side: "Dingguo Gong, you won't be dealing with the big cannibal, right?" ”

"You can't hide anything from Lord Tutun's eyes!" Speaking of this, Zhang Bao'er sighed and said: "The Western Regions has always been the territory of the Tang Dynasty, you Turks come in to make trouble, it's better to say, we have been fighting between us for so many years, it can be regarded as a fight between brothers!" But the big cannibal is different, he is purely a foreign invasion, if he doesn't drive them out, how can the Tang Dynasty have face? Besides, we have a good friendship with each other, and if you lose to the big cannibal, I have to save face for you, right? ”

Mo Jianlian's heart was gloomy for a while: "So, I still have to thank you?" ”

Zhang Bao'er comforted: "King Zuo Xian, in fact, your defeat this time is also a good thing!" ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? Mo Jian asked puzzled.

"You two brothers have always been suspicious of the Mura Khan, and in addition to your identity, the most important thing is that you are the god of war in the eyes of the Turks, and you have never been defeated. This time, you disobeyed the order to enter the Zhaowu Nine Kingdoms, if you win again, the Modu Khan will definitely not tolerate you anymore, and you must have thought of the consequences. Now that you have lost the battle, and although the name of the undefeated god of war has been ruined, the hearts of Mo Du and his sons are much better. If you keep a low profile and then admit your mistake, plus the power of the Tang Dynasty to surrender the city to the Modu Khan, presumably the Modu Khan will not embarrass you too much, at most he will take away your military power, but his life will be saved. ”

Mo Jianlian and Tun Desire Valley nodded silently.

Que Teqin said: "Without military power, how can we still have a foothold in the Turks?" ”

Zhang Bao'er waved his hand and said: "Mur Khan and his sons are only afraid of you, first, because you can fight, and second, because you have many people who control the strings. If you have lost the battle and have no military power, then you are not qualified to be their enemies, and you think they will ignore you, and you will not be safer? ”
