The Khitan was entrenched in the pine desert, thinking that the Tang Dynasty was beyond the reach of the whip, and had been harassing the border passes, so that the border people were not at peace, although its danger was not as big as the Turks, it was also the most important border trouble in the northeast at that time, if the Khitan could be solved, it was a supreme beauty, and it could make the border passes of the Tang Dynasty more stable.

Moreover, if the Khitan is resolved, it will allow the Tang Dynasty to focus more on dealing with the Arab Empire, which is also necessary from a strategic point of view.

There is another reason why Li Longji wants to solve the Khitan, that is, the Khitan will become a major border trouble in the north at the end of the Tang Dynasty and the beginning of the Song Dynasty, and it must not be tolerated.

"The imperial court has sent troops to attack the Khitan many times, although there have been many victories, but it cannot completely solve the Khitan, which is really a big hidden danger. Now, our army has won a great victory, taking advantage of the good opportunity of our army's sharp edge, we will send troops on a large scale and attack the pine desert land, and we will be able to do our best to destroy the Khitan in one fell swoop. Wang Xiaojie's eyes sparkled, and he said: "My intention, it is better to send troops sooner rather than later." ”

"Marshal, the last general is willing to lead the troops." Wu San stood up suddenly, and asked for his life loudly, with a look of anticipation.

In this war with the Turks, all the generals had great merits, but he thought twice about his merits, he thought that his face was gloomy, and he wanted to take this opportunity to make some military merits.

"Hmm." Wang Xiaojie's eyes were shining, staring at Wu Sansi and being silent for a long time.

"Handsome, no." Immediately, some generals objected: "Fake King Liang, will you lead the troops?" Will the brethren listen to you? ”

The Wu clan is unpopular, and Wu Sansi is even more unpopular, and it will not be possible for the generals not to oppose them.

"yes." The generals all cracked their mouths and thought about Wu Sansi.

"Commander, please rest assured, as long as you give me 200,000 soldiers and horses, the last general will definitely be able to destroy the Khitan." Wu Sansi was extremely unhappy when he heard it in his ears, but he had to endure it and pat his chest to reassure.

"Two hundred thousand? This is more than the Khitan mouth. ”

"Can the Khitan withstand the attack of 200,000 troops?"

"As soon as you hear it, you know you don't know how to fight. If you lead an army, you will surely be defeated. ”

"With your little ability, giving you a million troops is also a defeat."

The generals could no longer hold back and laughed loudly. The corners of all mouths are cracked to the base of their ears.

Although the Khitan was the main border trouble in the north at the end of the Tang Dynasty and the beginning of the Song Dynasty, it was still quite weak during the Wu Zetian period, and whether the total population was 200,000 was a problem. Wu Sansi actually wanted to lead an army of 200,000 to destroy the Khitan, which is pure nonsense.

"If you dare to laugh at me, I will not let you go." Wu Sansi blushed and thought viciously in his heart.

Li Longji shook his head. Chong Wu thought twice and said: "Fake King Liang, if you want to lead the army, go read the military book first, don't talk about it." Just a Khitan, 50,000 troops are enough to destroy, why 200,000. ”

"That's right." The generals echoed loudly.

Before. The main energy of the Tang Dynasty was used to deal with the rebellious Turks, and did not send a large army to attack the Khitan, and even if they did, it was a small army, which was the main reason why the Khitan was able to survive. Now that the Turks have been destroyed, the Tang Dynasty can send a large army against the Khitan.

As long as the Tang Dynasty sent a large army, it didn't take much. 50,000 is enough to wipe out the Khitan several times.

"It's still the king of Chu." The crowd will sing in unison.

"King Chu, the matter of destroying the Khitan will be handed over to you." Wang Xiaojie nodded and said to Li Longji.

"Xie Dashuai." Li Longji took the order and said: "The Turks have just been destroyed, Sun Wanrong must think that we are still resting, and we should send troops immediately, so that Sun Wanrong can be caught off guard." ”

"Good calculation!" Wang Xiaojie immediately agreed.

"Marshal, I'll lead the army out." Li Longji immediately ordered. Mobilize 50,000 elites and march eastward.

Li Longji ordered Pei Xiaoke to inquire about the news and asked Chen Xuanli to lead 3,000 men as the vanguard to block the news. Along the way, all the tribes they encountered were either slaughtered or charged. Only in this way can we best ensure that the news is not leaked, and the Khitan is caught off guard.

Each Don army had three war horses, one on horseback. One horse rests, and the other camels are replenished, so that the full horsepower can always be guaranteed, and the Tang army can always advance at the fastest speed.

The journey was very smooth, and the Tang army almost entered a no-man's land, and without any hindrance, they entered the land of pine desert.

The Song Desert Protectorate was in what is now Liaoning, and it took only a few days for the Tang army to arrive.

As soon as I arrived at the Songdesert Duhu Mansion, I saw that many Khitans were grazing. The Khitan herdsmen rode horses, sang pastoral songs, and drove cattle and sheep, and there was a peaceful atmosphere, without the tension of a big war at all.

"Rumble!" An earth-shattering hoof sounded, and a huge dark cloud appeared, a black line of water, graceful and smooth, surging quickly.

"That's an army, our warriors?"

"This army is well-trained and horsemanlike, and it is not under our warriors, but the hooves are too loud, and there must be more than 100,000 horses."

"Hundreds of thousands? That must not be our warriors. It is impossible for our warriors to have so many horses. ”

The Khitan are nomadic people, and they know the sound of hooves too well, and they can hear as much as they hear.

The Khitan population is too small, and it is a question of whether there are 200,000 people in the total population, and it is impossible to concentrate more than 100,000 horses at one time, which is obviously impossible to be a Khitan army.

"If it's not our warriors, where will it be an army?"

"I don't know."

Immediately afterward, these Khitan herdsmen were surprised.

The black waterline is closer, and you can see it clearly, only to see a sea of people, black pressure, and you can't see the end at a glance.

I saw the flag fluttering, a sea of flags.

"It's the Tang Army! It's the Tang Army! ”

"How did the Tang army arrive?"

The herdsmen saw clearly that this was the banner of the Tang Army, and they couldn't help but be very strange, and they couldn't understand how the Tang Army could come.

"Not good! Hurry up and report it, the Tang army is coming. ”

"Yes, it needs to be reported immediately."

The Khitan herdsmen's faces changed greatly, and they were ready to report to Sun Wanrong. However, it was already too late.

"Rumble!" I saw a Tang army galloping out from the left and right sides, as fast as the wind, quickly inserting into the back of the Khitan herdsmen, and soon converged and surrounded them.

"It's over! Finished! "The Khitan herdsmen's faces were pale, as if they had been buried in the soil, without a trace of blood.

"Rumble!" A Tang army dressed in bright light armor and carrying a hard bow and arrows rushed from the front, and the momentum was like a rainbow. Unstoppable.

"Whew! Shout! Shout! From afar, this Tang army shot with a crossbow, and the sharp sound of breaking the air rang out.

"Ahh Yes! Yes! "The Khitan herdsmen were shot, and the screams came one after another, killing and wounding many people.

After the Tang army was shot, he rushed with a horizontal knife, and his hand rose and fell. The shot was ruthless, and after the Tang Army passed, there was no Khitan who could breathe.

"King Chu, it's only twenty miles away from Sun Wanrong's camp." Pei Xiaoke galloped over and reported to Li Longji.

"Good!" Li Longji applauded loudly, with excitement on his face. said: "Did Sun Wanrong notice it?" ”

"Nope!" Pei Xiaoke shouted excitedly: "We killed everything we could kill along the way, how could we leak the news?" Sun Wanrong didn't notice it at all, he couldn't have dreamed that we had been killed. ”

"Great!" A cheer rang out, and the generals' eyes lit up with excitement.

If Sun Wanrong sensed that the Tang army was attacking, he would still be able to escape. Once he wants to escape, it will be a big trouble for Tang Jun. Because Sun Wanrong could flee north, and even enter the territory of what is now Russia, it would be difficult for the Tang army to catch up if they wanted to.

Sun Wanrong didn't realize that this was great news and could destroy him in one fell swoop.

"We are already very close to Sun Wanrong's camp, Sun Wanrong will soon know that we are coming, this attack is early, I will. There is no rest, and the attack is immediate. Li Longji pondered slightly.

"The Khitan is not rigorously trained, has no sophisticated equipment, does not have good tactics, and its combat power is not strong, far inferior to that of the Turks. Even if we come from a long journey and are a little tired, we can easily overcome it. Chen Xuanli's eyes sparkled, and he said very contemptuously.

"That's right!" Zhang Shuo nodded heavily. Strongly agreed.

The combat power of the Tang army is very strong, it dominates the world, and it is invincible, even the strong Turks are not opponents, let alone the Khitan. The overall strength of the Khitan was far worse than that of the Turks, and there was no sophisticated equipment, no rigorous training, and no advanced tactical tactics, so even if the Tang army was exhausted, it could win with confidence.

Not to mention, the Tang army can still beat the Khitan by surprise.

"The army of fifty thousand was divided into five, with ten thousand men in each team. Zhang Shuo, Chen Xuanli, Xue Zhi, Pei Xiaoke, each of you led 10,000 people to attack from the four directions of east, west, south and north, and I led 10,000 on the periphery to intercept and kill the fish that slipped through the net. Li Longji immediately ordered.

This arrangement is very good, and the generals have no objections.

The army was divided into five, each team of 10,000 people, Zhang Shuo, Chen Xuanli, Xue Zhi and Pei Xiaoke each led a team and immediately attacked.

"Rumble!" The Tang army was like a tiger descending from the mountain, riding a horse, clutching a horizontal sword, and rushed towards Sun Wanrong's camp.

Li Longji's remaining 10,000 people were divided into four teams, and four generals were appointed to command, scattered in four directions, east, west, south, and north, preparing to intercept and kill the fish that slipped through the net.

Sun Wanrong's camp is not large, covering an area of only ten miles, the tent is less than 10,000, and the Khitan concentrated here is only 40,000 or 50,000 people.

Among them, the most important is Sun Wanrong's army, which looks like almost 20,000 people, and the rest are herdsmen.

The total population of the Khitan is not large, and it is a question of whether there are 200,000. Moreover, it is also scattered everywhere, the Tang army has traveled all the way, killing a lot, and all the rest are concentrated here, if it is killed by the Tang army, the Khitan race will not be able to survive.

The Khitan army is training, and the herdsmen are roasting mutton, simmering horses, and preparing lunch.

"Rumble!" At this moment, I heard an earth-shattering hoof sound, which shook the ground and trembled.

"Hoofs? This is the army. Sun Wanrong was riding on a tall horse, commanding his army to train, when he heard it, he raised his eyebrows, and was very surprised: "This hoof sound is neat and staggered, this is a strictly trained army, compared to my army, where did it come from?" ”

"The Turks can be so purged, could it be the Turks?"

"The Turks are all destroyed, how can it be the Turks."

The Khitan ministers were talking.

"Not good! The Tang Army is coming! Suddenly, Sun Wanrong's face was as pale as paper.
