Changsun Sheng nodded, and said impassionedly: "Great Khan, please rest assured, unless it is absolutely necessary, the eldest grandson will not take you into the customs, to put it mildly, if it is not for respecting the Great Khan, I, more than a thousand knights, want to respectfully invite the Great Khan to enter the customs, but I am afraid that it has already been done, if the enemy army is not a large-scale attack, my more than 1,000 cavalry can resist, the eldest grandson is a blood-stained battlefield, and he will not bring the Great Khan into the customs." ”

When Changsun Sheng was performing in a righteous and solemn manner, a prolonged voice of the word "Bao" suddenly came, and a herald soldier rushed up to the city tower, sweating and looking panicked.

Eldest Sun Sheng's face changed, and he said angrily: "Didn't you see that the envoy was talking about big things with the Great Khan?" Why are you so panicked!"

The little soldier said in a panic: "Ambassador Changsun, the big thing is not good, the Xishan Beacon Tower has reported that a large number of cavalry are approaching!"

His dyed face turned white with fright, and he stared at Changsun Sheng with his son's eyes. Changsun Sheng's eyebrows moved slightly, and he still maintained enough composure, and said: "Don't panic, there is a message from the beacon tower, is it our army or the Turkic cavalry?" How much? What is the direction of the movement? ”

Xiao Bing glanced at the black smoke rising from the beacon tower in Xishan, and said: "It's not our army that came, it didn't have a contact with us to play the flag, and now it's far away, I can't see if it's Turkic, but there are about 10,000 people, and they are rapidly approaching us, it seems that they are coming for us, and now they are less than thirty miles away from us!"

Changsun Sheng's face sank like water, his hand on the canopy, looked into the distance, and saw that against the background of the sunset in the west, the sky was dusty in the distance, and a black gas was like an oolong. Swept in the direction of the horizon. He often walks in the desert, and he knows the way. It was the dust that thousands of troops and horses had brought up when they galloped, and when it flew into the air, it looked like a black dragon rising in the air, and an experienced general could judge the size of the offensive army by the size of the black dragon.

Changsun Sheng gently chanted words in his mouth, and after looking at them twice, he nodded heavily: "Yes, there are about 10,000 riders who come." Judging from the speed of their galloping, it should be a fine cavalry of one person and two horses, my Great Sui cavalry are all dressed in iron armor, and they do not have such a fast marching speed, and the Turkic general servant tribes will not have such well-trained cavalry, it looks like the elite of the Khan's headquarters is coming. ”

Dye Gan was so frightened that his tongue was big, and the horsewhip in his hand fell to the ground with a "horn click": "What, the elite of the Khan's headquarters?" How can it be! How could Yongyu Lu and the Sullen Empire now split up a large army to hunt down Ben Khan? ”

Shi Sihuda jumped directly onto the battlements and looked into the distance. After looking at it for a while, jump off the stack. His face was covered with a layer of frost: "Great Khan, the eldest grandson ambassador is right, the slave saw the golden wolf's head, which is exactly the banner that the old thief has been fighting in this war." ”

Dye Gan was shocked, this time he was about to collapse at the touch of a button, and the disintegration of his subordinates was a reason, but he also saw the ironclad cavalry of the Western Turks on the battlefield, and it was no longer the Wuxia Amun of the past, and the Eastern Turks were embargoed by the Sui Dynasty for many years, and the combat effectiveness of the troops had declined significantly, even if he was in his headquarters, he only had iron arrows, and was not generally equipped with steel swords and iron armor. ”

The troops of the Western Turks are not only numerous, but the 50,000 elite cavalry of the headquarters of the Datou Khan are all armored and cavalry, even the horses have armor, and the riders are all strong men of the Western Regions, and their physique is much higher than that of ordinary Turkic knights, and the weapons used are mostly maces, hammers and other heavy weapons, and when they fight in close quarters, they are infinitely powerful, and their Khan guards go up to fight hand-to-hand at a critical time, and more than 10,000 troops are wiped out in less than an hour.

Ji Ji's brows furrowed: "No, Huda, the elite of the headquarters of the Sulliest are all iron cavalry with men and horses, and we have all seen it, judging from their current marching speed, they are all fierce and fast light horses, how can this be explained?" ”

Changsun Sheng said: "Prince, our Sui army is fighting, and elite troops like the Xiaoguo Army will not wear iron armor all the time, even if you see us wearing iron armor when you come today, it is only because we are in a state of search and need to fight at any time, and the army on the march is one person and two horses, the main horse is ridden, and the auxiliary horse is specially carrying iron armor and supplies, and when it is time to fight, put on armor." ”

Du Ji was dumbfounded: "But if that's the case, isn't the speed too slow?" What if the enemy attacks while you are changing your armor? ”

Changsun Sheng smiled slightly: "My Great Sui has always been a mixed infantry and cavalry, if it is a decisive battle, Xiaoguo's elite cavalry should seize the time to change clothes, that is, a small half a quarter (a few minutes) of time, you can complete the outfit, during this period, you can let the infantry use the chariot as a cover, shoot the position with a strong bow and crossbow, or you can attack with light cavalry, and the enemy's cavalry will first melee a group, and when the battle is stalemate, then send out the iron cavalry to kill, in this way, you can often break the enemy in one fell swoop." ”

Dye Gan sighed: "No wonder every time I fight with the Great Sui, I always see its army in a strict formation, the formation is closed, and when the decisive battle comes, the front row of the formation door opens, and the iron cavalry continues to rush out, and our Turkic cavalry can't resist it at all." ”

Changsun Sheng didn't want to talk too much about the mysteries of the Sui army's battle with these Turks, so he quickly diverted the topic: "Presumably these Western Turkic cavalry have also learned this, now the Turks are the great khan of the entire Turks, only he can use the golden wolf's head Da Xu, and it must be his subordinates who come, I guess it may be that he saw the wolf smoke lit by Deputy Envoy Wang and Feng Sima, and knew our information, so he chased and killed all the way." ”

At this moment, the herald glanced at the wolf smoke on the beacon tower in Xishan again, and said in a trembling voice: "Great, ambassador, it's not good, the enemy cavalry is less than twenty miles away from me!"

Changsun Sheng turned to Dye Gan: "Great Khan, it's time to make a decision, I just said, even if you are broken and blood stains the battlefield, you must protect the Great Khan, since you are unwilling to enter the customs, then please take advantage of the chaos to break through, I will lead this thousand sons and daughters to open a bloody road for the Great Khan to fight to the death." ”

After that, Changsun Sheng said sharply to the herald: "Order, all troops line up, wear armor, and counterattack the attacking enemy!" There is only one target, and that is the enemy commander under the golden wolf's head!"

Dye Gan hurriedly said: "No, no, no, Ambassador Changsun, how can Ben Khan watch you go to danger in person?" Don't say anything, Ben Khan will enter Daizhou with you!"

Du Ji was so anxious that he stomped his foot: "Father Khan, don't do it!" As soon as we entered the Han Pass, we ...... on the grassland."

Dye Gan didn't say a word, and directly whipped it on Du Ji's face, and suddenly a long blood stain jumped on Du Ji's face: "Ben Khan and Ambassador Changsun are talking, when is it your kid's turn to intervene here!"

Changsun Sheng waved his hand firmly: "Great Khan, why bother? The eldest grandson once promised the Great Khan that he would definitely bring troops to meet the Great Khan, and would not embarrass the Great Khan, but now it is like this, it is all the incompetence of the eldest grandson, and the eldest grandson's move is not for the country, but to fulfill the promise of one man to another man! Besides, the princess has been killed by the thieves, and if the eldest grandson also dies at the hands of the thieves, then I will have to fight if I don't send troops!"

Ran Gan hurriedly grabbed Changsun Sheng's hand, and tears were about to flow: "Ambassador Changsun, your intentions Ben Khan completely understands, Ben Khan is shameless to face the world, and I can't be sorry for you as a good friend!" Alright, don't say more, I'll go with you now. ”

Eldest Sun Sheng suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, a trace of embarrassment appeared on his face, and he sighed: "Great Khan's great kindness, Eldest Sun can only repay it in the next life!"

The sun was finally swallowed by the horizon, the sky was dark unconsciously, the black dragon in the air had gradually disappeared, the golden wolf's head was gone, Wang Shichong and Feng Xiaoci rode horses, and walked side by side, unhurriedly running at the forefront of the cavalry of more than 7,000 people.

All the knights behind the two of them have changed into Turkic clothes, and the white wolf plug in front of them for about ten miles has been completely dimmed, and even the beacon tower of Xishan has disappeared, and a fire dragon about two or three miles long is rapidly passing through the mountain path outside Daizhou City, passing in the direction of Daizhou City.

Feng Xiaoci laughed, and pointed at the fire dragon with a horsewhip: "Okay, they really hit the trick!" Dye and dry into the customs!"

A sneer flashed on Wang Shichong's face: "Order, all soldiers learn the wolf howl of the Turks, and the louder the better!" I've got to get them to run faster!" (To be continued......)
