Chapter 314: Turning Back to Fight
Tingzhou Guan City, among the shops of Persian merchants.
After listening to Cai Zhongman's report, the great shaman of the Persian Temple showed a self-contained smile on his face.
"You have done a good job, when Ma Lu wins the world, you don't have to suffer in this bitter cold place, it is certain to enter the court as an official."
Cai Zhong bowed his body and looked extremely respectful: "It is the duty of subordinates to contribute to the Holy Sect. ”
"Huh!" The great shaman smiled and nodded, "In the future, when the holy flame burns throughout the entire Tang Dynasty, the Holy Church will give you enough rewards, and you won't let the meritorious people suffer, go ahead!" ”
Cai Zhongman nodded and quietly retreated.
The great shaman stood up and paced back and forth in the room, clenching his fists in excitement.
"I didn't expect that after planning a hundred years of events, it is time to harvest! The Tang Emperor dared to leave Chang'an, he was really confused! I took advantage of this in this way, and what could have happened in a few years was brought forward like this! ”
The Great Shaman was extremely proud of his wit. Li Longji didn't know in advance about Li Longji's arrival in Tingzhou, and the planning of this incident was completely improvised. Things turned out to be unusually smooth, everything was just a smooth sail, and such amazing results were achieved in one day.
"Now I'm just waiting for that Tiele kid to run to Chang'an and cry to Li Heng about it. Then everything will be complete, and what has been dreamed of for a hundred years will be realized! ”
The Great Shaman thought with great ambition and was extremely happy in his heart.
……
Galloping out of the northwest direction along the avenue for dozens of miles, he connected to the main road from Tingzhou to Huifu. From time to time, you can see caravans on the avenue, some of which are transporting supplies to Mobei. Others brought loot from the Golden Mountain.
Here it is. Hun knew he wasn't wrong. Just walk down this avenue. He was able to enter Mobei and rush to the Huiya Tent to tell Ma Xiangting what was happening in Ma Xiangting Prefecture and the conspiracy of the mysterious Persians.
Hun Yang did not regret making such a choice. After running in the morning breeze for so long, he had already figured it out thoroughly.
The conspiracy of the Persians is good, if they flee to Chang'an, the crown prince will definitely ascend the throne and become the new emperor, and then he will send troops to fight against Ma Xiang. And it is also very likely that he will be rewarded for his merits. However, in that case, he would be on the opposite side of Ma Xiang like the new emperor.
In that case, it is a dead end. The official title will not be enjoyed for long, and he will become a ghost under the knife of Ma Xiang!
The Zanpu of the Tibetan people and the caliph of the great cannibals have all fallen under the sword of Ma Xiang one after another, and the next one is the Khan of the Hui people. If the Persians carried out the orders of the Persians and caused the new Son of Heaven to fight against the horses, Hun Yang did not think that the new Son of Heaven had the possibility of winning.
In that case, there would be no point in siding with the new emperor.
has offended the Son of Heaven. You must not offend the horse again, if you offend the horse minister. There is no chance of survival.
There was an endless stream of caravans on the avenue, and there were also many messengers who traveled alone, and the caravans were far away from Tingzhou, and the messengers were also needed to deliver news, so Hun Ying galloped on the trade road and did not attract people's attention.
On the banks of the Dule River, the weather is still cold. Far from the area where the Gesar clan was slaughtered, there was still a smell of blood in the air.
The army went all the way north, continuing to approach the fleeing Hui brigade. According to the news from Mi Xue's subordinates, it is only more than 200 miles away from the Hui people, and they will definitely be able to catch up in two days.
The closer you get to the Uighur brigade, the more scattered Uighurs you will encounter. No one advanced faster than the new army of Anxi, so these Hui people did not resist when they saw the Tang army, but avoided the side of the road to be obedient. They followed the experience of a hundred years, but they did not know that the Tang Army in front of them was different.
The new army of Anxi went all the way and killed all the way, and the soldiers of the forward team never had blood on their knives. The Tang army no longer accepted the surrender of the Uighurs, and the places they passed through brought only death and killing.
In such a march, the newcomers in the Anxi New Army grew rapidly. At least now let them kill again, and very few people still vomit.
More than a day passed quickly, and the Tang Army scouts who had dispersed had already seen a dense crowd of Hui people. A large number of Uighurs were everywhere, driving horses and sheep to follow the cavalry in front of them to the front. Among the Hui cavalry, a luxurious carriage was extremely conspicuous.
"So much!" A young scout smacked his lips, a bloodthirsty glint in his eyes.
"Go and report to the general first, and you'll kill someone later!" The scout captain said in a deep voice.
The group turned their horses' heads and passed through the scattered stragglers and rushed to the rear.
"Second prince, Tang people! The army of the Heavenly Khan has caught up! A Hui cavalryman came up from the rear and shouted loudly when he arrived at the Chinese army.
"Tang people!"
"How can it be so fast!"
"Tian Khan's army has caught up, and it is still so far from the North Sea, this is over!"
Listening to the words of the cavalry, the Hui nobles were extremely shocked and cried out uneasily.
Yao Luo Ge moved to Jian's heart and jumped suddenly, and looked back at the back. At this time, the Tang people's brigade was not yet visible, but there were small puffs of smoke and dust rising, and those should be the scouts of the Heavenly Khan.
The uneasiness in my heart these days has finally been verified. The Tang people came so quickly, and now as soon as they arrived in Kunshui, the Tang people caught up with him!
"Second prince, quickly ask the Great Khan, ask the Great Khan what we should do!" The chief of the Baye Ancient Tribe looked at Yao Luo Ge and hurriedly said, his expression extremely uneasy.
"Yes, second prince, at this time, let's let the Great Khan have that idea, he is the master of the grassland canonized by the Heavenly Khan."
"Second prince, you have to let the Great Khan make a decision at this time, you quickly ask the Great Khan what to do!"
"Second Prince......"
The Hui nobles shouted one after another, and their faces were full of fear. The original tribal leaders were all killed by the thunder in the tooth tent, they were all newly become leaders, and they had never decided on major matters, and at this time, they all pinned their hopes on Gele Khan in the carriage.
Yao Luo Ge's face was gloomy, and he glanced at the heavy carriage trapped in the mire, and his heart was extremely angry. It's just hell, how can there be so many quagmires on a good road! If it weren't for the quagmire on the road, how could it be so slow!
The enemy he faced was the army of the Tian Khan, but he still had to rely on his father's name to control the Uighurs, because his father was the Great Khan who had been canonized by the Tian Khan, but he was not. It was a ridiculous fact, but he had to accept it.
"Second prince, the army of the Heavenly Khan has caught up, you tell us the truth, is the Great Khan still alive?" The new chief of the Bayegu tribe asked loudly.
The other nobles all nodded their heads again and again, and they had never seen the Great Khan show their faces when they fled north from the tooth tent, and the second prince communicated with the Great Khan through the window of the carriage, and they had long been suspicious.
Yao Luo Ge looked at these guys with fat brains, and his heart was extremely disgusted. After all, he is the descendant of Guli Peiluo, and he still has some courage in his heart. Now that the Tang army has caught up, let's fight. He also wanted to see how powerful the army of Tian Khan really was.
This time, Tian Khan attacked Hui and divided into many large armies, each of which was different in strength, and the strongest was naturally the army of the king of Fufeng who swept away Tubo and Dashi. He has so many warriors here, how can there be a reason to leave without a fight. As long as it is not the army of the king of Fufeng, he has the possibility of victory. If you can take out an army of Heavenly Khan, it will greatly boost your morale and suppress the arrogance of the Tang people.
Having made up his mind in his heart, Yao Luo Ge moved to Jian and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, everyone, the Great Khan is still alive." I'm going to ask the Great Khan what I'm going to do now. So saying, he rode his horse forward, and walked through the mud to the side of the carriage.
More than a dozen strong men were standing in the cold mud, pushing the carriage forward with difficulty, Yao Luo Ge moved to Jian to signal everyone to stop, came to the side of the carriage window and opened the curtain and said a few words, listened for a while, nodded and galloped back.
Looking at the group of Hui nobles, Yao Luoge moved to Jian Jian and said in a deep voice: "Since the enemy has caught up, let's fight!" We are the eagles of the steppe, even if we die, we will die on the battlefield, and we cannot leave our backs to the enemy! ”
The nobles all nodded, they were all new leaders, and they were not good at making decisions, and escaping with the Great Khan would require a backbone. The Great Khan was canonized by the Heavenly Khan, and he is the backbone of everyone, and the Great Khan is still alive, and he can still give everyone ideas, so everyone just obeys.
Since the Great Khan said war, then war. As for the rest, don't bother with it for the time being.
The order was passed down quickly, and the cavalry stopped advancing, and all turned their heads and galloped to the rear. The flow of people quickly parted, making way for the warriors.
The people of the various tribes stopped in place, leaving large clearings for the warriors. After fleeing for so many days, they are also very tired, and they also want to see if these warriors can defeat the army of Tian Khan and give everyone a little hope.
Yao Luoge moved to Jian Ce and galloped in front of the battle, loudly boosting the morale of the soldiers. At this time, his blood courage was also stimulated, and his chest was full of fighting spirit.
At this time, there were three clans of the Hui headquarters, with a total of nearly 40,000 cavalry, and the number of cavalry of the Baye Ancient tribe was also more than 30,000.
It was the first time he had commanded so many cavalry units after many years of fighting. Although these people are not elite, but all the men who can get on the horse are on the horse, but after all, they are all cavalry. Such a large number of people also gave him the confidence to fight against the army of the Heavenly Khan.
He knew that it was impossible to defeat the Heavenly Khan, and now he only hoped to win a battle and thwart the spirit of the Heavenly Khan's army. In this way, his prestige with the tribe will be increased, and he may not have to rely on the prestige of his dead father.
After winning this war, the Hui people were destined to be unwinnable, and after winning this war, they would think of making peace with the Heavenly Khan, which was the only way to preserve the khanate. (To be continued......)
