Chapter 230: Armageddon 4

Lu Dongzan was triumphant, now he could vent his anger, and he could let Li Hong lose a military general he couldn't afford to lose. Lu Dongzan returned to the main formation and said to Zhuo Mi, "When the war starts, remember to catch the prime minister alive, if it really can't work, the dead can do it, but you can't let him escape." ”

"Yes, Prime Minister." Zhuo Mi received the order and said excitedly, it was obvious that Zhuo Mi heard the importance of this Tang Army to Lu Dongzan from Lu Dongzan's mouth, and if he could meet the requirements of the prime minister, wouldn't he be promoted again? With Gran, Harvey and Sambas dead, if he really pleases him, he will have a bright future ahead of him. Thinking of this, Zhuo Mi's excitement was indescribable. He had long forgotten how he had contradicted Lu Dongzan before, and what kind of person Lu Dongzan was with a small belly.

However, just as Zhuo Mi was about to give the order to attack, another fast horse rushed in front of him, and his face was ugly, and Zhuo Mi saw that he had a feathered arrow stuck in his back when the knight stopped his horse.

"Report to the Prime Minister, we found the cavalry of the Tang Army on our left side, and the number is about 10,000." Immediately the knight spoke with difficulty, and with that he fell off his horse, breathless.

"Poof—"

Zhuo Mi was still stunned when he heard the scout's report, but when Lu Dongzan heard the news, a mouthful of blood gushed out with anger.

Nima, who was about to use Qin Zhan to improve the morale of his soldiers just now, said such domineering words proudly in front of the army. Now you say that the Tang army has another 10,000 cavalry pressed towards itself. What exactly do you want to do? Can't you report this to yourself before you have said what you just said?

"Great Minister, Great Minister-" Zhuo Mi turned around and saw seven or eight of Lu Dongzan's personal guards shouting around Lu Dongzan's war horse.

Zhuo Mi hurriedly rode a thousand horses, and saw that Lu Dongzan's face was pale and panting, obviously not light.

"Zhuo Mi, if the Tang army adds another 10,000 cavalry, is it still possible for us to win?" Lu Dongzan asked in a low voice. Zhuo Mi shook his head, the opponent had 20,000 cavalry, and he only had 10,000 elite cavalry, and his morale was very low, so there was no possibility of winning at all.

"If you can't win, quit!" Lu Dongzan said in a low voice, this time he was not lightly angry, as if half of his life was gone, he suddenly aged a lot, and he was no longer the dominant state before.

Zhuo Mi secretly scolded in his heart, is it too late to withdraw now? But he just said it in his heart, and replied, "No! ”

Now he can only lead the army to fight a bloody way for Lu Dongzan, and he no longer expects how much the 10,000 troops around him can keep, just to ensure Lu Dongzan's safety when he arrives at the Mani camp.

Unfortunately, he thought so in his heart, and before he could give the military order, he saw another fast horse charging in front of him not far away.

Immediately, the knight glanced at Lu Dongzan, whose face was pale and seemed to be dead, and was stunned for a moment before he spoke, "Great, great minister, we found a Tang Army cavalry behind us, and the number is about six thousand. ”

"Poof-" When Lu Dongzan heard the news, he spurted out a mouthful of blood again, and he fell unconscious.

"Great Phase, Great Phase—"

"Quick, the big picture fainted—"

The people around Lu Dongzan have become a mess, and it is the first time they have encountered the morale of the prime minister who was stunned and vomited blood unconscious, as for Zhuo Mi, at this time his heart is even more chaotic, as a military general, his current performance also reflects the gap between him and Gran, Sambas and Harvey.

Qin Zhan returned to his own camp and was about to give the order to attack, when he received news from the scout, saying that a 10,000-strong cavalry of the Tang Dynasty appeared on the left side of Lu Dongzan, and after Qin Zhan determined that this cavalry was not Li Hong's personal guard, he thought of Xue Na's 10,000 iron cavalry. Because only Xue Na's 10,000 Bingzhou Iron Cavalry had this ability, they could rush all the way here from Dafeichuan after receiving the prince's order.

With these 10,000 cavalry, there are 20,000 elite cavalry on his side, but Xue Na's elite cavalry or Bingzhou Iron Cavalry is the elite that was inferior to the Turkic cavalry in the first battle, Qin Zhan felt that there was no obstacle to destroying Lu Dongzan in today's battle.

He was overjoyed and immediately sent someone to deliver a letter to Xue Na, preparing to join forces with Xue Na to attack Lu Dongzan's army.

However, at this moment, another scout reported to him, saying that a fine cavalry appeared behind Lu Dongzan, also the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, with a number of six thousand. As soon as the number six thousand reached Qin Zhan's ears, the first thing he thought of was the Lingzhou Jingcai, the army led by Li Jingxuan. Because Xue Na's army had already arrived here, it was impossible for Li Jingxuan's army, which had the same task as Xue Na, to remain indifferent.

The Lingzhou army was on guard against the Western Turks, and although they were not well equipped, they were very strong in combat.

Especially in the cavalry tempered in the perennial confrontation with the Western Turks, it is the elite of the elite, this cavalry appeared here, Qin Zhan felt that today's battle, not only the destroyed Lu Dongzan, but also captured him alive It is not difficult.

Qin Zhan was overjoyed and hurriedly sent someone to deliver a letter to Li Jingxuan.

Now, on the left side of Lu Dongzan, behind him and in front of him, there are all cavalry from the Tang Dynasty, only the right side has no army, Qin Zhan is not afraid that Lu Dongzan will escape from the right side, because the right side is the border of the Tang Dynasty, and Lu Dongzan will be more likely to be surrounded and killed by them when he enters the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, at this moment, Qin Zhan had not yet issued a military order, and he seemed to have seen the dawn of victory.

Suppressing his excitement a little, Qin Zhanjing waited for news from Xue Na and Li Jingxuan, since they had now besieged Lu Dongzan, there was no need to order an attack immediately, and it would not be too late to attack after the siege plan was formulated.

However, at this moment, Qin Zhan saw that the place where Lu Dongzan was located in Lu Dongzan's army was in chaos.

Qin Zhan is happy, could it be that there was a civil strife in Lu Dongzan's army? If so, this is the best time to attack. Qin Zhan hesitated a little, and he was about to give the order to attack. Suddenly, a fast horse rushed to him, and immediately the knight said loudly, "General Qin, our General Li said that you and General Xue should not attack Lu Dongzan for the time being. ”

"Why?" Qin Zhan asked puzzled.

"Because Mani is leading 40,000 elite horsemen to this side, less than thirty miles away from us, General Li means that we should use Lu Dongzan as bait to lead Mani's army into the ambush circle, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop." Immediately, the knight replied in a cold tone.

"This-" Hearing that Mani's army actually went south and gave up attacking Liangzhou City, but supported Lu Dongzan, Qin Zhan was also stunned, he knew that Mani had more than 40,000 elite cavalry in his hands, plus Lu Dongzan's 10,000 elite cavalry, the other party had more than 50,000 troops, if he attacked without careful planning, he really didn't dare to guarantee that Lu Dongzan would not escape with this.

"Okay, I know, you go back and tell General Li, just say that I will wait for his siege plan." Qin Zhan said rather dejectedly.

"No!" Immediately the knight received the order and turned and left.
