"It is said that Murong Shiyun, the king of Tuhun, has gathered an army of 100,000 royal courts, and the king of Tianzhu also has 100,000 troops, and there are thousands of famous kings under his command......

With more than 30,000 cavalry, Li Daozong had already marched in columns, allowing the infantry and baggage to follow behind.

Li Daozong went to a tribal area called 'Aolu Mountain'.

This tribal area has a small city and a strong people.

What's more important is that the tribe of Aolu Mountain has a famous king.

At this time, the armies from all walks of life marched, and the first to attack and kill were the heels of some famous kings.

If the other party does not come to his rescue, he will become a lonely person in the future, and it is difficult to speak of power.

The Tuhun royal court assembled an army with a tendency to constantly wait and see and delay, and Li Jing used division to target.

"As soon as the other side leads an army far superior to ours, we will march in guerrilla warfare and join up with the other armies, without giving them a chance to break through."

Seeing that Li Hongru was not outnumbered, Li Daozong finally let go of the unreliable thoughts in his heart, and his concept returned to normal.

Deep into the hinterland of Tuhun, these famous kings can outrun the monk and can't run the temple, if they don't have a head-to-head confrontation, they will be invaded by Li Jing's command.

No matter how powerful the famous king is, he also needs to be accompanied by the same clan, if there is no same clan, these people will have no place to follow, let alone a sphere of influence.

"Murong Shiyun thought that we would take Zhangye City first and kill the old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers inside."

"They want to use this to promote the brutality of Datang, arouse the thoughts of the same hatred and hatred in Tuhun China, and arouse the vigilance and thoughts of several countries bordering Datang."

"How could the chief manager not see through such a little trick."

"Just pull one or two thousand soldiers to station nearby, and Zhangye City will not be able to turn over."

"At present, many people from the rivers and lakes have disguised themselves in Zhangye City, and many people continue to post lists and bewitchments, and they are also constantly accompanied by assassinations."

"We don't need to fight, Zhangye City won't survive three days before he surrenders, and then he will be able to pass smoothly!"

"At this time, let's take a detour, although it is a little troublesome, but we can kill their hinterland."

It's just that Zhangye is a city, and it can't block the march of all legions, and if you want to let the baggage and other cars pass, you need to take Zhangye City.

Li Jing had other arrangements for the conquest of Zhangye City, and the other army corps carried food for several days and made a detour directly on horseback.

Li Daozong's mouth was broken all the way, and he kept muttering at the front of the team.

There is an advantage to following Li Daozong, as long as he can confide in it, the marching chief will complain about it.

This is true even for military movements.

Li Daozong's side, many lieutenant generals were clear-looking, and they only felt that they understood the secrets of the imperial court, and they were confident in the battle.

"Chief, ten miles ahead is Aolu City!"

After three consecutive days of marching, it was getting closer and closer to the destination of Li Daozong's attack.

With the scout's report, the generals' hands pressed on their weapons one after another.

The men were not in a hurry to march, and they were physically fit enough to draw their swords at any time in the event of a battle.

"How far is the Great Treasure King from us?" asked Li Daozong.

King Dabao is the famous king of the Aolu Mountain tribal region, and it is also an important target of Li Daozong's trip.

This march is the drunkard's intention not to drink, to fight Aolu City, and to fight the Great Treasure King.

If the other party didn't care about the tribe at all, Li Daozong would also act smoothly and force Murong Shiyun to fight a decisive battle with the Heavenly Pillar King and others.

Li Jing has a reputation for fighting, and he has never been defeated in head-to-head battles, and Li Daozong is convinced that the Tang Army will definitely win.

"There are still more than 100 miles away!"

The Great Treasure King was unable to pull the Dragon Stallion Legion of the Royal Court, and it was difficult to take the generals under the Tianzhu King, so this time he brought thousands of people from his tribe back to defend.

But the speed of the other party is a little slow.

This will take at least two hours to catch up with Li Daozong's army.

"Let's see if we can be ruthless, then show them!"

Li Daozong pulled out the long sword on his waist, and the long sword pointed in the direction of Aolu City.

"Take Aolu City within an hour and prepare for the Great Treasure King!"

Most of the cities in Tuhun are mainly earth and stone, and for small and medium-sized cities, they usually only build walls three or five meters high.

The height of such walls did not require siege engines, catapults, etc.

The Tuhun people like invasion and guerrilla tactics, and have never been good at defense.

Li Daozong's words of a quick battle are not an exaggeration, and it is indeed possible to take Aolu City, which is short of troops, within an hour.

This shocked the spirits of the vanguard officials, and they rushed on horseback one after another.

"Those who surrender will not be killed!"

The closer they got to the city, the louder the Vanguard officers roared.

There were hundreds of sturdy Tuhun people standing on the city of Aolu, and they were taking bows one by one at this time.

Seeing the black oppressive scene of the Tang Army, these people were already as pale as dirt.

There are constantly archers in the city looking for the commander of the legion, and they are delusional to curb it by killing the main general.

This made Li Daozong shout.

"I am Li Daozong, the head of the Shanshan Dao marching army, so I will go out of the city and surrender as soon as possible, so as not to lose my life!"

More than two hundred meters away, Li Daozong shouted for a while.

His voice was mixed with a Tang accent, but it was a normal spitting language, which made the opposite city move for a while.

But immediately, dozens of sharp arrows shot out from that city, and they shot at Li Daozong in a volley.

"This chief has given you mercy, but you don't cherish it, but instead want to attack and kill us and kill them all!"

Li Daozong's long sword swept away, and then he pushed away the several sharp arrows that shot into his body.

Using himself as bait, Li Daozong satisfied the other party's intention of sneak attack, and also made the siege seem justified.

A legion that dares to slaughter will cause negative emotions such as greed, ruthlessness, and dehumanization, but with the right ideas, the legion can continue to fight.

Although Li Daozong likes to take risks, the instinctive behavior of the commander of the army has made Li Hongru praise again and again.

For the Tang Legion, Li Daozong is the supreme leader of the legion.

The act of attacking and killing Li Daozong is tantamount to provoking everyone in front of them.

For a while, the armies quickly entered a state of siege.

"Hold the shield!"

"Draw the bow!"

"Advance!"

"Projectile!"

When Li Daozong's order was issued, the flag officials began to shake the order flag in their hands as required.

In the blink of an eye, many people began to dismount, and the chain mail and shields made of gold and iron made a tidal sound, and the spears stood out in unison.

Thousands of arrows flew like dark clouds.

The city of Aolu was plunged into a brief period of darkness.

"Rush!"

When ranged strike capabilities are suppressed, the rest is for the melee legion.

Li Daozong took the lead, and the horse charged at the forefront.

By the time he approached Aolu City, his body had already soared from his mount and stepped directly into the small city wall.

It's just more than ten seconds, and the time for a round of bow and arrow suppression has entered hand-to-hand combat.

Li Hongru held the Chengying Sword in his hand, and the sword light swayed slightly, and the two sword-wielding Tuhun guards in front of him fell down.

He didn't show the slightest mercy.

The long knives of the two Tuhun guards were still held in the palms of their hands, trying in vain to slash at him.

As long as you step into the battlefield, it is not the opponent who dies, but the person who dies.

The defensive counterattack of Wanjia Cangsong's swordsmanship, and the simplicity and flexibility of the vertical and horizontal sword, these two sets of swordsmanship are enough to be comfortable in this kind of area.

This is the sword that really kills.

It was just an instant slaughter, and the Chengying Sword held in Li Hongru's hand trembled a little.

What used to be a gag turned into a head-to-head confrontation.

When Li Hongru thought through it, he also knew why there were so many masters in the military region.

Killing with a sword is also a real killing technique.

There is no superfluity, and there is no need for superfluous.

Fast, effortless, one-hit kills, and a keen sense of danger are also required to avoid being attacked by stray arrows and random knives.

Compared with being requisitioned and transferred to the state in the early years and participating in the fierce battle against the khanate, Li Hongru at this time had a little more different feelings.

The real killing, which seems to have brought about his sublimation in swordsmanship, began to become more suitable for actual combat.

He leaped down, stabbed with his sword backhand, and then struck the blocker in front of him without looking back.

Red blood infested the guarded gates.

With a powerful charge, the gates were opened, and people began to crouch down in this small city.
