While Li Junxian and Li Shimin were discussing tactics, the Turks once again prepared 30,000 men and charged out again. And Li Junxian and Li Shimin began to pay attention to the battlefield and did not continue to discuss tactical issues.

"Jun Xian, there is no problem this time, right? If you let a subordinate take command in your place, will there be any problems? Li Shimin asked.

Li Junxian shook his head and said, "It's okay, there will be no problem." That guy is also a natural general, and commanding 10,000 people will not be a problem. What's more, this tactic of three-fold shooting is very easy, as long as you command according to the password, and it does not require too many changes in command. ”

And the Turks did not know that the enemy's commander had changed, and the Turkic nobleman Wu Qiqi lost and directly pressed up with 30,000 Turks.

"Turkic warriors, rush with me!"

"Kill!"

And Su Dingfang held the flag of his command and watched the Turks charge seriously. The Turks gradually charged over, and the muscles of Su Dingfang's hand holding the small flag became more and more tense, and it was the first time he commanded this kind of 10,000-strong battle.

"Kill!" The Turks approached again.

"Shoot the arrows!" Su Dingfang waved his hand, and a row of arrows rained out.

"Whoosh!" With a neat sound, thousands of crossbow arrows were fired.

"Ahh Hundreds of voices screamed at the same time, and they fell to the ground.

The crossbow had a much stronger hit rate than the bow and arrow, so this time it reached ten to one, more than 3,000 arrows, and more than 300 Turkic cavalry were dismounted.

"Whoosh!"

"Ahh

"Whoosh!"

"Ahh

In a short period of time, Su Dingfang had already commanded those crossbowmen to shoot about 10,000 arrows, and about 1,000 Turks were killed. Moreover, Su Dingfang's arrows were still shooting, and the Turkic casualties were gradually increasing, and every step forward had to pay the price of hundreds of people.

When Wu Qishi led the Turks to rush to the front of the Tang army's bow and crossbow array, suddenly the Turks in front began to shout.

"The Han people are devils, we are not opponents!" "We're going home!" "Don't fight with the Han Chinese!" "The Han people's arrow rain is too dense, we can't rush through!"

The Turks began to ride their horses back, not wanting to fight again. And on the battlefield, one person can sweep away ten people, and ten people can take away a large area. Therefore, even the Turks, who claimed to be warriors, fled for the most part.

"Come back! Come back! "Hey, it's a failure!"

There was nothing he could do about it, because he had fled and would not be able to fight at all.

In the age of cold weapons, if an army lost a tenth of its ranks, morale plummeted. If two out of ten are killed, then a massive rout begins. And the same is true of the Turks, who killed about 3,000 Turks by the triple shot of the crossbow just now, so the Turks immediately retreated.

And the reason why the cavalry under the command of Timur before would fight to the death was because Timur was killed, according to Turkic military law, if the main general died, the soldiers under him would be reunited if they lost the battle, so those soldiers would fight to the last soldier. And this time their commander Wu Qiqi was not killed, so they would not sit together, but they were not so courageous, and they all began to retreat.

Li Junxian and Li Shimin watched this situation from the city tower and immediately laughed.

"Hahahaha, Jun Xian, your three-fold shooting of the bow and crossbow has scared the courage of the Turks. You see, the Turks, who are usually invincible, have actually begun to flee. Also, this guy you recommend to conduct is good, who is he? Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty, this guy's name is Su Lie, the word is fixed, and he has participated in the Xuanwumen Revolution with his ministers, and he is a team leader. However, he had also followed Liu Heimin in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty before this, and he had been against our Datang! Later, he joined our Tang Army and started as a small soldier. Li Junxian explained.

"Oh? It turns out that he is also a veteran, no wonder he can command tens of thousands! It's a pity for this kind of person to be a team, after this battle, how about being a Lang general in Yulinwei? Li Shimin asked.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Li Junxian knew that this Yulin Weilang general was a fifth-grade official, two big grades and four or five small grades higher than Su Dingfang's original seventh-rank officer. Therefore, Su Dingfang has been promoted to four or five levels in a row. However, Su Dingfang is also Li Junxian's old subordinate, and the old subordinate has a good future, so Li Junxian can also accumulate contacts in the officialdom, so he doesn't hope that his old subordinate can be promoted.

Moreover, Li Junxian knew that in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, there were very few political battles among military attachés, so he was not afraid of any accidents. Li Junxian plans to turn himself into a civil official in the near future, so that his future development prospects will be good. And the military attache can't be without friends, even if this Su Dingfang is his friend in the military attaché, after all, he is an old subordinate!

"Hey!" Li Shimin sighed suddenly.

"Why is Your Majesty sighing?" Li Junxian asked.

"I'm sighing, Jun Xian's tactic is good, but it's too expensive. Such arrows rained down, and the consumption of arrows was more than seven or eight times that of before. Moreover, after such a long period of operation, the life of the bow and crossbow has been shortened a lot, and I am afraid that after a few battles, a good pair of bows and crossbows will be scrapped. If the consumption is so large, how much more taxes will the people spend! Li Shimin said with a sympathetic look.

Li Junxian secretly scolded in his heart: "Old Li! Why didn't I find out, why did you become a ** and want to tree the archway? What does it mean to be consumed? You obviously deliberately want to make a gesture and let others praise you! Others don't know, but I've read history books, you guy cherishes feathers very much, and will continue to create some situations to make other people feel that you love the people. You hypocrite! ”

No, as soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, a sycophant spirit came out immediately.

"Your Majesty loves the people so much, it is really a blessing for the people!" "Your Majesty is sympathetic to the people's feelings, treats the people like children, and the people will definitely serve Your Majesty." ……

Those civil officials began to pat themselves on the back, and those words made Li Junxian's teeth sore.

"Who said that Li Shimin doesn't like to be patted on the back? I've read the history books of the Tang Dynasty, and I've been rewarded several times. Although Li Shimin likes to give advice, he also likes to listen to sycophants! Also, although Wei Zheng was still a monarch when he was alive, but after Wei Zheng died, it would be a lot of fun. Ordinary people in later generations only saw Wei Zheng when he was alive, but I, a historical researcher, knew that Wei Zheng was smashed by Li Shimin after his death! Li Shimin is definitely not a very generous person, if he is really in a hurry, I am afraid that everything will be done! Li Junxian thought secretly.
