Chapter 1103 A Beautiful Cloud of Fire

December 23 was supposed to be a festive day, but the city of Issyk-Kul was a depressing scene, and the Turks came so quickly that they were a little surprised to lose their love. Fortunately, the south gate has been repaired, otherwise the pressure on the defense will be too great.

The Turks came to Issyk-Kul with a desperate mind, and after a simple correction, the Turks attacked from all sides. In this battle, the Turks did not play any tricks of encircling three and letting one go, and it was impossible for the Han people to escape, so the Turkic warriors could only attack. In the Turks, they have always paid little attention to siege warfare, so there are not many ladders and siege vehicles in the entire Turkic territory, which also reduces a lot of pressure on the defense of the city in disguise.

Fang Yiai didn't go to the city to star, with Xiang Shuo and Lu Qing there, he didn't need to command the battle at all. In Gohringham's general's mansion, Fang Yiai drank tea slowly, while Helu accompanied him with some ambivalent faces. To tell the truth, Helu was very worried that the Han people would not be able to hold Issyk-K, so that he Helu would not be alive, and if he lost Issyk-K, the Han people would no longer take him Helu seriously, and the same Lulu Khan would not let him go.

"Horu, do you think Ben will be able to hold Issyk-Kul?" Fang Yiai's question was a little abrupt, more precisely, he shouldn't have asked Helu. For a while, He Lu didn't know how to answer, Fang Yiai couldn't just ask a question, maybe it was to test him He Lu's mind.

"General Fang. Dahal gathered more than 100,000 elites in Sanmi Mountain this time, but with the bravery of the soldiers of the Celestial Empire, there should be no problem in blocking Dahal's attack, but did General Fang think about the 100,000 troops in the direction of Kobdo? If Glo and Beigong Yu give up Kobdo and attack Issyk-Kel instead, the situation will be very bad! ”

"Hehe, Helu, listen to what you mean, do you think Fang's situation is not good? Do you believe a word to tell you? Fang was able to defeat Dahal's 100,000 army in three days! ”

The corners of Fang Yiai's mouth curled, as if he was saying something inconsequential. Helu's surprise was not small, he felt that Fang Yiai must be boasting, with the men and horses in the city, how to defeat Dahal's 100,000 army? Could it be that Fang Yiai is waiting for Li Ji's army? No, it can't be. Even if Li Ji gathered a large army and left the Xiting Gorge Fortress, he would face reinforcements from Ge Luo and Beigong Yu. Of course, Li Ji can also defeat Glo's Kobdo defenders first. The problem is a big battle of more than 200,000 people on both sides. Can you tell the winner in a short period of time?

"General Fang, I" He Lu wanted to say impossible, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed back, some things were understood in his heart, but he couldn't say it, who knows what Fang Yiai thinks?

What is Helu's mind? Fang Yiai naturally knew, he put the cup on the table, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Helu." You have to remember that Fang is a practical person, and he will never be merciful to his enemies, and he will not be stingy with the wealth in his hands for his friends. I want you to be my friend, you say? ”

Listening to Fang Yiai's words, He Lu chuckled in his heart, he always felt that Fang Yiai's person was a little unpredictable, and it seemed that he would really have to be more careful in the future.

"General Fang laughed, He Lu has descended to the Celestial Empire, don't think about it, we are friends, we will always be friends, I He Lu dare to swear to the sky!" As he spoke, he raised his right hand and made an oath.

Swear? The ghost believes in Helu's set, but the main reason for saying so much is to knock Helu down, and since Helu knows it in his heart, the purpose has been achieved.

The Turks outside Issyk-Kul City are really in a half-crazy state, and the Dragon and Tiger Guards guarding the city are even more red-eyed, Issyk-Kul can hold it in his hand without moving, and he has to thank the Turks for their generosity, if it weren't for Issyk-Kul's inventory of feather arrows, this city would be really difficult to defend, after all, if you are close to the hand-to-hand combat, the disadvantage of a small number of people will be magnified.

The defenders at the head of the city suffered heavy losses, and the Turks besieging the city were even more miserable, and in just one day, the Turkic warriors left more than 10,000 corpses under the city of Issyk-Kul. Dahal's heart is dripping blood, he has not fought such a tragic battle for decades, he knows that it is not a good way to attack, but Dahal has no other choice, now the Han people have just captured Issyk-Kul, it is a good time to attack, wait for a few days to attack, that is another scene. Dahal knew Fang Yi too well, and if he was given five days, the brute would be able to make Issyk twice as strong as he is now.

People are flesh and blood, and on the first day, the Turks were able to launch an uninterrupted onslaught on the city by relying on a breath of blood, but after a long time, the Turks were tired after all. In desperation, Dahal could only withdraw his troops with gold, looking at the already blood-soaked city wall, Dahal sighed silently.

On the Issyk-Kul plain, a large army walked slowly, and while hunting with flags, what they saw was a desolate atmosphere. Ge Luo and Beigong Yu both felt very depressed, their goal was to recapture Issyk-K, but would this matter be so easy, the Han people are not fools, now the Xiting Gorge Fortress is in the south, as long as the Han army rushes out of the fortress, they can intercept and kill them halfway.

If it was a month ago, Ge Luo would not be afraid of the Han people, let alone 100,000 people, even if 200,000 people? But now it's different, on the one hand, morale is high, on the other hand, morale is low, Issyk-Kul is too important to the Turks, with Issyk-Kul, the Turks are still Turks, without Issyk-Kul, the Turks are not the Turks. Glo didn't understand what was going on, there were Golingham and Heru in Issyk-Kul, why would the Han people take it?

In front of the fortress of Xiting Canyon, there were more than a dozen generals in armor, Li Ji took a deep breath, he didn't expect Fang Junzhen to take Issyk-keh, and the rest of the matter depends on him Li Ji. If Issyk-Kul allows the Turks to take it back, then Li Ji can kill himself to thank the emperor.

"Su Lie obeyed the order, and you led the right battalion of 20,000 horses into the southern part of the Issyk-Kul Plain, and then attacked after the Kobdo defenders passed, no matter what method you use, you must grab the Turkic tail!"

"Whoa!" Su Dingfang took the order and left. This is a critical moment, and there is really no delay at all. After Su Dingfang left, Zhang Liang, Duan Zhan, Li Yexu, Liu Huaicheng and others also received military orders, and in a short period of time, the 100,000 Tang troops who had been waiting for a long time entered the Issyk-Kul Plain in batches.

Datang, there is never a shortage of heroes, the wolf smoke of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once swept the desert, but in terms of military alone, Datang does not have to be bad at all. In fact, Glo could also guess that the Han people would stop them halfway, but he didn't expect that the Han people would not stop them in front. but chased the tail of the army and slashed and slew. Glo did not want to fight the Han on the Issyk-Kul Plain, because his goal was Issyk-Kul City, and even if he defeated the Han army and could not recapture Issyk-Kul City, he Glo would lose.

The Turks wanted to leave the Don army behind. But he has not been able to do so, and at first Su Dingfang's 20,000 horses bit the tail of the Turks. Half an hour later, Duan Zan and Li Yexu's Zuoying men and horses thrust hard into the Turks' abdomen. For a time, the entire Turkic army fell into a state of chaos. Once the battle is fought, no one wants to die in vain, and many Turks have forgotten Glo's military orders, and they are entangled with the Tang soldiers with weapons, at first only a small number of people, and gradually the number of people increases. In the end, the 40,000 people in the rear had already been mixed in.

After another Han army appeared in front, Ge Luo and Beigong Yu also completely gave up the idea of rushing to the aid of Issyk, and the only way to do this was to defeat the Han people here first. If the Han people are allowed to entangle all the way, the Turkic warriors don't know how much they will be buried in vain.

The Turks are going crazy, they are ready to fight hard, but the Han people are distancing themselves. 200,000 horses on both sides, so confronted on the Issyk-Kul Plain, Ge Luo wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Han people, but Li Ji didn't give him a chance, just used various methods to pester the Turks, in short, the Turks were tossed by the Tang army, they couldn't advance, and they couldn't retreat.

Zhang Liang didn't understand why Li Ji didn't order a decisive battle, and after some young people left the big tent, he finally asked, "Mao Gong, what do you mean by this, in my opinion, the Turkic people are depressed at this time, why don't you take the opportunity to directly knock out this Turkic army?" ”

"Xunwen, don't you think that the Turks are like arrows at this time? Although the Turks were demoralized, they still had enough courage to fight hard, and the casualties were too heavy at this decisive battle. All we have to do now is drag them and wait for the perfect moment! ”

"The best timing? Mao Gong, what do you mean by this? Zhang Liang really didn't understand it, is there a better time than now?

"Hehe, Xunwen, what do you think of Issyk-Kul City? If Fang Jun can defeat Dahal's army in one fell swoop, and then lead the army to our aid, what kind of scenario will it be? ”

Listening to Li Ji's words, Zhang Liang almost didn't go down to the ground, "Mao Gong, don't joke with your brother, Fang Jun's little man is still counting on us to copy Dahale's back road, you are really"

"Haha, Xunwen, I know you don't believe it, let's make a bet, Fang Jun will be able to help us in two days, do you believe it or not?" Li Ji seemed very confident, very early, he and Fang Yiai had already studied how to fight this battle, but Zhang Liang didn't know it yet.

Looking at Li Ji's expression, Zhang Liang knew that there must be something greasy in this, bet? A fool would agree.

Two days had passed in the blink of an eye, and Dahal was already a little physically and mentally exhausted, and even the remaining 70,000 Turkic warriors had lost confidence in retaking Issyk-Kul. I have to admit that Fang Yiai really has a set of dog barbarians guarding the city wall, in short, there is no way he can't think of it, and these days the Turkic warriors have suffered a lot from him.

Dahal is already thinking about whether to give up Issyk-Kul to gallop to help Glo, now the Turkic warriors need a victory too much, if they can destroy Li Ji's men and horses, with a big victory, maybe they can recapture Issyk-Kul in one fell swoop, now, it is really too difficult, it's not that the Turkic warriors don't work hard, it's really the Han barbarians who are too difficult.

Issyk-Kul was still shining with torches at night, and the Turks had not launched overnight attacks, so they had to be on guard. When the time entered the ugly, the sleepy Turks had already rested, and in this midwinter wax moon, the weather was cold enough to freeze urine into sticks.

At some point, there was a lot of fire on the walls of Issyk-Kul, and it could be told that this was not a torch, and many Turkic spies did not know what the Han were doing. The flames flew out and formed a series of meteors, which turned out to be the rockets of the Han people. It's really ridiculous, shooting rockets from such a distance, do the Han people want to cause a fire and burn the sleeping Turkic warriors?

It is true that the rocket could not shoot into the tent of the Turks, but the Turks did not have time to laugh at the stupidity of the Han people, because as the rocket fell, the originally quiet Turkic camp actually sounded a rumbling explosion, and one after another fire clouds rose into the sky, accompanied by countless wails. Standing at the head of the city, Helu was stunned, it was a landmine, this Fang Yiai was really ruthless, it turned out that a mine had been planted around Issyk-Kul long ago, and he was waiting for the Turkic warriors to step into the palace of Hades by themselves.

Heru knew very well that Dahal's army was over, completely finished, and that the remaining 70,000 troops could survive 10,000 to be considered blessed by the gods. After three days of continuous siege of the city, it was when the morale was at its lowest, and it was so terrible that the hearts of the Turkic warriors would collapse. (To be continued......)
