The fire started from the third watch that night, and burned until dawn the next day, Zhang Mai, accompanied by Guo Luo and Guo Fen, rode a horse into a gap in the south - compared with when he first came to this world, Zhang Mai's riding skills have been much better, although the gallop on horseback is not very stable, but the trotting of the horse is no problem at all, if it is still in modern society, I am afraid that he will not be able to grow so much in more than half a month, and now there can be such progress, it is really forced by the times. Especially the thousands of miles of escape, every day except for eating and sleeping was spent almost on horseback, and the twenty days were so turbulent that almost his bones were scattered, but the foundation of riding had been laid during that time.

Under the seat is a good horse, he will find a place where there is no fire and hot coal, and walk in from the south of the city, all the way can only be described as miserable.

In this fire, the majority of the Hui people were actually killed, hundreds of people were actually trampled to death, killed by mistake, or crushed to death by collapsing buildings in the chaos, and the most common cause of death was smoke smoke.

The three of them came to the center of Tucheng, and the scene in front of them even made Guo Fen, who had been war-torn for a long time, sick to his stomach, and Zhang Mai vomited on the horse.

This is the base camp of Broken Leaf City, Guo Shidao's official residence and residence, from the night before yesterday to yesterday, the Broken Leaf military and civilian petroleum paste smeared all over the city, so this official residence and several houses around it were not coated with oil.

After the fire cut off the way out of the city, this became the only place in the city that was not on fire, everyone was greedy for life, and the Hui soldiers who had not escaped from the city for a while and had not yet died instinctively rushed towards this fireless place, hundreds of people were huddled together, but they avoided the fire, but they could not avoid the smoke, and when the fire in Broken Leaf City burned to the extreme, the smoke smoked, and hundreds of people were smoked to death here.

Most of the people who died here did not have a single wound on their bodies, and even their clothes were not very damaged, but the layers were dense, and hundreds of corpses were piled up in one place like arhats, which made those who saw it shudder.

Disgusting is disgusting, terrible is terrible, but war is like this, Guo Shidao ordered to collect the loot, even if it was a corpse of value.

The Black Khan Dynasty broke a general, and a cavalry unit was completely annihilated. Although the Tang army has won, but the Broken Leaf City has been destroyed, and the Tang people will inevitably face ten times the danger in the future, in this case, any means must be used, and no bit of resources can be spared.

More than 100 captives were driven to search for the body, and the body of the main general Masoud was also found, Ding Hanshan seized an Arab scimitar inlaid with rubies from him and presented it to Zhang Mai, Zhang Mai pulled out the knife, but felt that the body of the knife was cold and shining, and there was an inscription engraved on the scabbard.

Zhang Mai thought to himself: "If I lose this battle, then my Qilin dagger may be held in the hands of this Hui general like this 'blood fang' scimitar." ”

After Yang Dingguo interrogated the prisoners, he learned that reinforcements would come, Guo Shidao said: "We have to deal with this place quickly, and then quickly retreat into the Spark Fortress!" ”

Guo Luo asked: "How many reinforcements are there from the Hui generals?" ”

Yang Dingguo said: "There may be 16,700 people, less than 2,000. ”

The Tang army is not counting the non-combat troops, only 800 people, only half of the opponent's strength, but after defeating Masouud, the morale of the whole army was greatly boosted, and the confidence was bursting, and the face of an enemy twice as large as himself did not pay much attention, Yang Yi said: "Then let them come, fight again, and see if it is the men of the Han family who are good, or if they are powerful!" ”

Yang Dingguo repelled him, and Guo Shidao said: "This time, we were able to win a complete victory, not only because of the conspiracy of Special Envoy Zhang, but also because of the favor of God. This is not to be done again. When the Hui people come from afar, they must all be light horses, but we are still dragging so many family members and children, and we will definitely suffer if we really fight. What's more, according to the news that the captives confessed, the reinforcements that came this time were led by Satuq Bogra, who was a very powerful general among the Hui Khan, and it was not easy to provoke. ”

Satuq Bogra?

Zhang Mai has never heard of it, and it is no wonder that he is not a historian, and the ancient generals he can know are all top figures like Han Xin and Yue Fei who have achieved achievements beyond their time, or who are famous because of a certain historical event and can leave a page in history textbooks (and history textbooks that Zhang Mai has read), or who have been hyped up by the Internet media as historical celebrities, otherwise it is difficult for them to enter Zhang Mai's field of vision even if they can be regarded as first-rate figures in their time.

Guo Luo said: "Satuq Bogra? If he comes, then we have to be careful! ”

Zhang Mai asked, "Is this person very powerful?" ”

"Well, he is the younger brother of Arslan, the Great Khan of the Hui Dynasty, and he is a very powerful figure in the countries west of the Green Mountains. When he was only in his thirties, he had already killed his uncle to take the city, and recaptured Talas from the Samanid Dynasty. Yang Yidao.

Zhang Mai said: "Then we have to leave quickly, it's best to clean all the roads into the mountain, and then lay some puzzles, so that he thinks that we have burned the city and left." ”

He just said it casually, but Guo Luoyang Yi responded: "Yes!" "He received it as a commandment.

Zhang Mai's heart moved, and he said: "Well, before leaving, let's leave a souvenir." ”

Let people carve a few lines of words on a broken wall, and then under the command of Guo Shidao, retreat into the mountain.

Two days later, a Hui army slowly approached, came to the new Broken Leaf City that had been burned to ruins, the corpses of the Hui army who died here had been lined up by the Tang army, and Masoud was placed at the forefront, as if it was displayed there waiting for the people of the underworld to come and review, a gust of wind blew, and all the Hui people who saw this scene felt a chill in their necks and a chill in their hearts.

A young Hui general saw it and shouted: "Demonstration! Demonstrate! This! Tang Kou! Demonstrate! This general named Huo Lan stammered, but he was a very famous general among the Hui tribes, but at this time he was furious.

An elite cavalry of more than 2,000 people was wiped out overnight, and an important general who was qualified to command a 10,000-strong army was even damaged, which was a rare thing in the Black Khan Dynasty in recent years! Even when fighting with the Samanid Dynasty, the overlord of Khotanese and even Central Asia, the Uighurs rarely suffered such a defeat.

A clear-faced general under forty years old approached on a lion horse, stared at Masouud's dead face on his horse, and muttered, "How many troops do these Tang Kou have?" ”

This general is the leader of the Qarakhanid royal family - Satuq Bogra.

He had spied some of the battle from the deserters, but after seeing the crushing defeat of Masoud, he did not dare to believe the accounts of the defeated soldiers. Masoud is a veteran general in the army, and regardless of his past achievements, just from the fact that he can track Guo Shidao and others here, it can be seen that he is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp. And the troops under his command are also one of the elite of the Hui people, and the enemy has the strength to annihilate Masouud, and it is not a problem to fiddle with a little trick to confuse the enemy.

The Black Khan Dynasty was a dynasty established by the Hui people who migrated westward, spoke the Turkic language, inherited the political traditions of some Turkic people, and the country had two khans standing side by side, although the deputy khans had to obey the orders of the Great Khan, but they themselves had a certain degree of independence, and once the strength of the deputy khans exceeded the Great Khan, they could replace them.

The powerful faction within the dynasty has always been only based on strength, abiding by the law of the jungle rather than the ancestral legal system, often causing chaos in the world because of the competition for the throne of the khan, they moved the concept of the nomadic imperial clan system from the realm of private law to the realm of state law, the dynasty was considered the property of the entire khanate, which could be divided or robbed, and sometimes the powerful vassals did not recognize the ruling power of the imperial chiefs at all. The Great Khan was always wary of threats that were too powerful, and sometimes even more wary of foreigners.

Satuk's uncle, Ogurchak Deputy Khan, had the strength to threaten Satuk's father, Basil Khan, and in order to weaken his younger brother, Basil did not help him when Ogurchak's seat of Talas was besieged by the Samanid dynasty, and as a result, 10,000 Uighur warriors died in the battle, and even Ogurchak's wife was captured, and the brothers formed a deep hatred. Ogurchak's entourage migrated to Shule and gradually regained his strength, but before he could take revenge, he died at the hands of his nephew, Basil's second son, Satuk. And Talas, which originally belonged to him, was also restored by Satuk's troops.

Satuk, who performed two miraculous feats in a row, began to use the title of "Bogra Khan" to the outside world.

Before he knew it, Satuq Bogra had also become the rival of his elder brother, Arslan, the great Khan of the Hui dynasty, and this seemed to be the fate of every generation of the Uighur Khans.

Masoud is a man of the Great Khan Arslan, a veteran who is capable and qualified to command an army of 10,000 people! It was a very troublesome obstacle for Satuk, who coveted the Golden Horde of the Great Khan, and Satuk was not saddened by the death of Masouud, but he was wondering what kind of person could defeat this famous man who even he was afraid of.

Although it is not clear what is going on with the other side, the more unknowable the enemy, the more dangerous it is.

"Don't stay here for long!" Satuk made up his mind. This gang of Tang Kou not only has the strength to kill the entire army of Masoude, but also can kill himself, not to mention that he brought too few soldiers and horses this time, and he went deep into the remote places with a lone army, and he couldn't understand the enemy's reality and reality, the enemy was dark and I was clear, and there was no chance of winning this battle.

"I thought that this time I came with Masoud to deal with a gang of robbers with a knife, but it seems that this time I underestimated them...... It's better to go back to Barasagon first, and then make plans! ”

Crusade against hidden-minded enemies in this vast land often requires several times more troops to search for them.

"Bogra Khan, please come and see here!"

The lion skull walked in front of the broken wall, and two lines of Chinese characters came into view:

-- Where we are, where is China!

-- Where we are, where is Datang!

-- Zhang Mai

Although the Tang Dynasty temporarily withdrew from Central Asia, the influence of Chinese culture was far-reaching, and there were still people in the Hui army who recognized Chinese characters, and Satuk himself could speak some Chinese.

Although the words on the broken wall are vulgar, and even the written Chinese that does not belong to this era, after listening to the translation, all the Hui Hui were shocked, and Satuk also raised his eyes to look at the Broken Leaf River that flowed southeast and muttered: "Zhang Mai, Zhang Mai...... Is this the new hero of the Han Chinese? ”

A glow of light spread from the east......

Is the sky in the Great Western Regions going to change?
