Chapter 82 6 The Wolf Travels a Thousand Miles

At that time, the situation was that Abicheril's troops had just broken through the formation of the tribal coalition army, and most of them were still caught in it, while the two wings of the Turkic army were sandwiched between the tribal coalition forces, and Su Chengdong's left and right wings and the troops of this formation were sandwiched between the two wings of the Turkic army.

The melee between the two sides was in full swing, and the two flanks of the Turkic army were in an unfavorable situation at this time, especially the right flank of Su Chengdong who personally commanded the attack. Abicheril understood the situation at a glance, and he resolutely abandoned the right flank that was about to collapse, and chose to make a detour to the left flank, taking advantage of the time lag between the army of the Silk Country and the time lag between the troops of the Silk Country and the all-out attack on the left flank in order to join up with the left flank in order to fight again.

Su Chengdong, who learned of this situation, also immediately issued his own deployment, while stepping up the attack to promote the collapse of the right wing of the Tuqi army, he ordered someone to send an order to the tribal coalition army to be responsible for chasing down the fleeing Tuqi right wing army, and at the same time began to mobilize reserve forces to cover the back of Abichilir in a counterclockwise direction.

Su Chengdong's move was very risky, because of course his approach could allow the tribal coalition forces who were not good at coordinated operations to do the pursuit tasks they liked, and avoided the trouble of affecting the normal dispatch of the Liaodong Army, but at the moment when the tribal coalition army broke away from the battlefield, the right flank of his troops would reveal a huge gap, and this gap could not be filled in a moment, if Abicheril saw through this point and attacked from this point, then his right flank would collapse, And his only chance is to bite the tail of the Turks before Abicil makes a move. It takes courage to compete for time with the Turks, who are known for their mobility.

In addition, whether the left flank of the Liaodong Army can withstand the situation of being attacked on its back and block the convergence of the left flank of the Turks and the army of the main formation is also a key, because once the two armies are combined. The already defeated left flank will be invigorated by this, and everything that has been done before will be in vain, so that the Liaodong army will once again face a strong enemy army.

To this end, Su Chengdong launched a fierce attack rarely seen in his military career, and it took less than half an hour to put the right flank of Tuqi into a state of rout, and then immediately returned to the rear of the Abichir army. At the same time, there was enough room for the tribal coalition to launch a pursuit, and the skillful linkage was appreciated by later generations of military strategists.

At the same time, Abicheril was launching the most severe assault on the left flank of the Liaodong Army, because his fighting caused huge casualties to the Liaodong Army, in that short one hour, the Liaodong Army lost seven captains, two captains, and dozens of low-level military attachés, which is more than ten times the casualties of the officers of the Liaodong Army since the beginning of the war! But it was this tragic battle that blinded Abiciel's eyes as the commander of the whole army, and Su Chengdong's troops successfully bit the tail of Abiciel's army, and at this time, Abiciel's left flank was only less than three hundred steps away from his left flank troops. At this moment, the goddess of victory no longer favored the side of the Turks.

With Su Chengdong's onslaught, the array of Abiciel's troops was quickly disintegrated from the rear, while the Liaodong Army in front resisted desperately, using a barrier composed of shields and spears to slow Abiciel's pace. Finally, as far as Abiciel's eye could see, the left wing of Turghe collapsed. This scene deeply caught Abicheril's eyes and also reflected the hearts of the Turks. From this moment on. It was impossible for them to win this battle again, and at this time they were still surrounded by the Liaodong army.

Lost. Abichellir smiled wryly inwardly. This bitter saliva is really hard to swallow. But Abicheril's full regret for it was only a moment when he frowned, and the next moment he immediately turned his horse's head and began to break through.

Because of the speed with which he made his decision, even such a good fighting unit of the Liaodong Army did not react for a while. By the time they became aware of Abiciel's attempt to escape, Abiciel had already taken hundreds of paces to the north.

"Plug them! Can't let go of Abicheril! Su Chengdong ordered so, but even he himself didn't believe that he could succeed. For he had seen this man's bravery in the distance. He knew in his heart that no one in his army could stop this man from escaping, and that capturing this man would require an ambush, a thick array and an archery team.

Abicheril is like a wounded wolf, struggling to fight his way out for his wolves, even the most warlike Liaodong army in the country of silk. No one dared to stand in front of this brave warrior without a solid formation, so although Abicheril's men suffered heavy casualties and the formation was constantly weakened, the sharp edge of this formation barely slowed down, and went straight through the array of the Liaodong Army and fled all the way north.

"What a terrible fellow, surrounded by our army, it is like no one." Su Chengdong sighed as he looked at the pace of the Turkic army from afar. Of course, he is not the kind of person who is sentimental out of thin air, in his plan at the beginning did not include the capture of Abichelil, for him to be able to rebel against the tribal coalition and win this battle is lucky enough, now the Turkic army can no longer gain a foothold under Xinyang City, then the attack on Liaoyang will soon stop, Abiciel will not continue to cling to the land of Liaodong in an embattled situation, his first task at present is to return to his grassland with his troops and a large number of looted supplies. On this point, although Su Chengdong regretted but also had to admit this heavy loss, after this battle, the Liaodong Army was also greatly injured, to catch up with the footsteps of the Tuqi army is not only unrealistic, but also the danger of being counterattacked, now what he has to do is to take over the city abandoned by the Tuqi as soon as possible, do a good job in the pacification of the people, and also the pacification of those rebellious tribes.

As Su Chengdong expected, Abicheril did not stick to these Liaodong cities, in fact, the rebellion of the tribal alliance had cut off his retreat, and the Turks had to open the way back to the grassland, and the soldiers were unwilling to stay in the cities, so it was inevitable that he would abandon these cities. However, Abicil still created a miracle, that is, he retreated far faster than people imagined, in just seven days, he withdrew more than a thousand miles with his Tuqi cavalry, and withdrew from Liaodong from the gap between the Liaodong army and the location of various tribes, and its speed was so fast that the cavalry troops led by Lu Qinghan did not have time to react, and only caused some damage to its rear guard.

At this point, the war of the Turkic army against Liaodong came to an end, and the Turkish army in Youzhou soon retreated to the grassland. In the course of this battle, the Tuqi army lost nearly 40,000 people, while the losses of the Silk Kingdom were much greater, the casualties of the Liaodong Army alone were as high as more than 40,000, the Youzhou Army suffered more than 20,000 casualties, Liu Xianzhi's troops and Xue Boren's troops also suffered a lot of losses, and a large amount of property and personnel were plundered. Therefore, as far as the battle itself is concerned, the Turkic army withdrew from the battlefield, but in terms of actual attrition, the Silk Country is obviously at a disadvantage.
