Chapter 368: The Turks Retreat
"What kind of monster is this, it's so powerful." When he saw the attack of the Mo Knife Hands, he was terrified and took the momentum.
Other soldiers and horses took the opportunity to attack, Xue Orphan led the Hu soldiers to surround one after another, and combined with Pei Renji and others in front of him to encircle and intercept the army of Tong Lifushe, they could not take care of each other, and instantly fell into the attack of Hu Bing.
"Quick, rush in and get back to Liversh." Shibi Khan also found out about the situation in the big array, his complexion changed greatly, and he hurriedly commanded the army to break into the big array, no matter what was in front of him, it was one. Chuang, the remaining fifty or sixty thousand troops around him roared out, not to effectively kill the Western Army, but to break through a road.
"Retreat." Li Xuanba looked at the countless soldiers roaring, did not dare to slack off, and quickly got out of the way, so that Shibi Khan could easily break into the big array, those Turkic troops who were divided in the big array saw Shibi Khan personally break into the big array, the military heart was shocked, and they surrounded Shibi Khan, making more and more soldiers and horses around Shibi Khan. Shibi Khan was happy, but found that the gap behind him was getting bigger and bigger, and the enemy seemed to be besieging again.
"Liversher, quick, come with me, rush out." Shibi Khan looked at the fighting Gulphoshe, roared loudly, and once again led the army in another direction. Killing the enemy is secondary, more important is rushing, he has found that in the middle of the big array, there are all kinds of flags, the big array that was originally rushed by the big army seems to have changed again, behind him, the chariot haunted, screaming again and again, and immediately knew that before I figured out this big array. You can't attack the big formation at all.
"General, now the Turkic army has all fallen in." The soldiers around Li Jing said happily.
Li Jinghu's eyes flashed, and he said to the soldiers beside him: "Raise the flag, release a gap, and let them go out!" ”
The pro-soldier was stunned, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly played the banner, and instantly saw a gap appear in front of Shi Bi, Shi Bi felt that there were enemies in all directions at this time, where did he dare to stay here. Without thinking about it, he led the army to rush out, and when he really rushed out, he completely relieved his heart, he took a deep breath, there was still a trace of fear in his eyes, and he didn't dare to stay in place, so he rushed towards the camp, and behind him, he and the others also took the road and fled. Where do you dare to reorganize the army and fight again.
"Kill, exterminate all the Turks in the Great Array." Li Jing was also relieved to see Shibi Khan leading a large army to flee, although he really wanted to leave Shibi Khan here. But the soldiers and horses in his own hands were not enough at all, and after killing Shibi Khan, he could only cheapen the Western Turks in the end, so that the Western Turks could completely occupy the entire steppe. At that time, there will be a behemoth in the frontier of the Great Sui, which will not be conducive to Li Xin. But the other Turkic soldiers who fell into the Great Array were not so lucky.
in the Turkic camp. Shibi Khan looked at the large array that was still fighting in the distance, from the outside, the big array had been completely operational, and the six petal phalanxes were either collected or released, sometimes gathered together, sometimes scattered like sharp knives, which looked very chaotic, but there was a trace of weirdness inside.
Shibi Khan was afraid in his heart, he knew that this was the case, he should not have let the army of Philip into the big array, and he didn't know how many soldiers and horses were lost in this battle.
"Within five years, I'm afraid I won't be able to attack Liangzhou." Shibi Khan made a conclusion to himself, in fact, in his heart, he thought that for a long time, he would not attack Liangzhou, and what Li Xin would be like in five years, Shibi Khan did not know. But he knew that it was definitely better than it was now. The Central Plains is about to be chaotic, and if Li Xin occupies the Central Plains, it will be his great enemy of the Turks. Perhaps, some strategies should be changed.
"Khan, come back, a little more than 80,000 people." Dubi walked up to Shibi Khan and whispered.
"It's my sin to lose 40,000 warriors in one day." Although Shibi Khan had a bottom in his heart, but when he thought of the loss of more than 40,000 warriors, Shibi Khan's heart was dripping blood, these warriors were the foundation of his domination of the Turkic steppe, plus the loss of 80,000 soldiers and horses, the entire Turkic people lost nearly 120,000 people in the hands of Li Jing. Almost half of that. Shibi Khan suddenly felt a trance in front of him, and immediately fell to the ground.
"Great Khan, Great Khan." Shibi Khan felt a commotion in his ears.
"Retreat." Shibi Khan finally said these two words in his mouth, and then passed out completely unconscious.
The killing was over until dusk, Li Jing withdrew from the big array, and the position was in a mess, there were the corpses of the war dead, as well as the wounded war horses that could no longer be used, and some broken grain carts, etc., Li Jing took away what he could take away, but he left behind the corpses of countless Turks. These were all left by Li Jing to the Turks, and he did not cut these corpses into Jingguan like Pei Renji did.
"The Turks are withdrawing." In the night, there were bursts of cheers in Zhangye City, but Li Jing and Pei Renji, the two main generals, came to the city tower, looking at the city, in the big array in the distance, there were figures and buildings, and from time to time there were bursts of ** sounds, the Turks were cleaning up the battlefield, and Li Jing did not order to attack.
"The general's six-flower array is really powerful, hundreds of thousands of Turkic soldiers have lost tens of thousands, if Shibi Khan does not withdraw at this time, it will be called a strange thing!" Bae In-ki said happily.
"But we have also lost a lot of people, the 100,000 army that the Metropolitan Governor has painstakingly trained, how many are left now, we have brought 40,000 people, and now I'm afraid there will be less than 10,000!" Li Jing sighed a little. Although the Six Flowers Array is powerful, it is also very dangerous if it is not used properly, especially if the troops have just been arranged, and the Western Army who is not familiar with the Six Flower Array, the six petals are used by the Western Army, and the large number of Hu soldiers is used as a circle formation, supporting the petals at any time. Petals suffered heavy losses in the face of the enemy's wildest attacks.
"It's useless. Failed to live up to the expectations of the Grand Duke. Pei Renji hurriedly said. Originally, he was a little proud of defeating the Turks, but when he thought of the loss of more than 30,000 soldiers, the pride in his heart disappeared in an instant.
"Where there are immortals in war, we can only let these people die less." Li Jing shook his head and said, "Although more than 30,000 people were lost this time, there were also more Turkic people left. How much did Hu Bing lose? Li Jing's eyes flickered, looked at Pei Renji and said.
"It's about the same as us, mainly because he died later, when Shibi Khan led the army to charge into battle." Pei Renji hurriedly said.
"Their bereavement benefits should be the same as ours, and they can't be left without a bereavement after winning a war." Li Jing said lightly: "Their own seizures belong to them, and we must make these people like to fight and fight under the leadership of the Grand Governor." ”
Li Jing's voice came faintly, but Pei Renji shuddered, he had also been in the officialdom for a while, so he naturally knew what Li Jing meant by this, and he clearly wanted to use the war to continuously weaken the strength of the Hu people in Liangzhou. These Hu people have good money and rewards, and Li Jing is ready to use these things to continuously squeeze the maximum interests of the Hu people.
"In the next step, our target will be the Central Plains, and compared to these Turkic people who only know brute strength, we are facing the Central Plains people. That place is a good place for us to make a difference! Li Jing did not care about Pei Renji's thoughts, but looked at the east and said: "The general is already waiting for us in Longxi, we have finished the affairs of Liangzhou, and immediately lead the troops south." ”
"I'm afraid it's just a few of our generals going south." Pei Renji shook his head and smiled bitterly. The northwest also has to leave some people to garrison, Li Xin trusts the West Army the most, although there are Hu people in the current West Army, but the people stationed in Jincheng are always Han people.
"Let's go! After this Turkic war, I am afraid that I will not come to my Liangzhou for a long time. It was worth sacrificing so many people. Li Jing greeted Pei Renji, and the two went down to the city tower.
In the Turkic camp in the distance, Shibi Khan leaned back in his chair, the whole tent was silent, whether it was Libsh, or aggressive, each lowered their heads, this battle made the two completely shocked, the cowardly Han actually defeated the strong Turks in the wild, although it was defeated by trickery, this can also show that the Han people are no longer the Han people of the past.
"The Great Turks have never been defeated, and this time it was a short defeat." Shibi Khan glanced at everyone and said, "This time we underestimated the people of the Central Plains, or Li Jing, and next time it won't be." I decided to withdraw my troops, but not to meet the tent, but to go to Taiyuan. Li Yuan deceived us this time, Li Xin's soldiers and horses are definitely more than 100,000 people, he has more soldiers and horses, his deception led us to defeat this time, so we have to take revenge back, Taiyuan has a lot of grain and grass, there are countless gold, silver and jewelry, silk and satin, we have to conquer Taiyuan, take these things for ourselves, so as to recover our losses. ”
Shibi Khan was very angry, not only to Li Xin, but also to Li Yuan, if Li Yuan hadn't deceived him, saying that Li Xin only had 100,000 horses, he would not have let Du Bi lead an army of 100,000 troops, he would have sent more men and horses, so that even if he failed, he would not have been defeated so miserably.
"Attack Taiyuan and take revenge. Attack Taiyuan and take revenge. The generals in the big tent shouted loudly, they always had to find an excuse if they failed, and they always had to find an object to bully, Li Yuan was very unlucky, and he became the next target of the Turks' attack.
"Okay, retire tomorrow." Shibi Khan nodded, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the Turks were defeated, and even the prestige of Shibi Khan was affected, if he could defeat Li Yuan and seize the property of Taiyuan, no one would question himself.
On June 10, the thirteenth year of the Great Cause, the army of Shibi Khan withdrew from Liangzhou, turned around and went to Taiyuan to kill, although Liangzhou won this victory, but also lost a lot, that is, the post-war pension is astronomical, simply Liangzhou also captured a lot this time, which barely made up for the losses of the war.
