Li Yao had just dispatched soldiers to block the exits on both sides, and Tashi led more than 40,000 Turkic men and horses to attack, and the two sides fell into an offensive and defensive battle, which was very fierce, and Li Yao was also the first time to fight the Turkic army head-on, which made him feel full of pressure.

You must know that the first time Li Yao led his troops to fight, he easily defeated Muli and won the victory, so he didn't know how strong the real combat effectiveness of the Turkic army was.

"General, if we continue to fight like this, we will have to be broken sooner or later!"

"Yes, General, the enemy army is numerous, more than 10,000 of our army, if we don't find a way to retreat from the enemy, we will all be dragged to death in this valley. ”

"General, let's break through while fighting!"

The exits on both sides fought fiercely, and the generals in the valley also kept talking to Li Yao.

Li Yao stood in place, lowered his head and thought for a while, he said quietly: "We can't break through now, this valley is the Yinshan steppe, if we hide in this valley now, we can still rely on this natural danger to resist for a while, but once we go out and start a war with the Turkic army on the grassland, we will definitely be defeated." ”

"This ......" The generals were instantly speechless by Li Yao.

"So be it! Order my brother to resist desperately, drag it out until the evening, and then I will slowly figure out a way, and then it will be easier to break through. Li Yao opened his mouth again and ordered a group of generals.

When the generals heard this, they nodded helplessly and agreed to Li Yao.

After the generals left to fight, Hua Lin walked up to Li Yao, hugged his arm, and whispered in his ear: "I will die with you." ”

"Silly girl, what is not dead, when the evening comes, I will take everyone out to break through, and I will turn around the more than 40,000 Turkic people led by Tashi, you can watch it with peace of mind!" Li Yao stretched out his hand to scrape Xiao Qiong's nose, which was drenched in flowers, and opened his mouth to comfort her.

Don't look at what Li Yao said so easily, but he was very anxious in his heart, whether he could successfully break through at night was still unknown, if he didn't want to worry about it, Li Yao wouldn't have said it like this.

Hua Lin believed in Li Yao's ability very much, nodded obediently, and whispered in Li Yao's ear: "I believe in you, I will always accompany you, regardless of life or death." ”

"Well, you are my lucky star, and with you by my side, I will definitely win the battle. Li Yao stretched out his hand to hug the flower shower and replied quietly.

Hua Lin happily buried her little head in Li Yao's arms and said no more.

In this valley, Li Yao and Tashi are fighting a fierce offensive and defensive battle, and under the city of Rongzhou, Mu Li is also desperately attacking Rongzhou City with more than 50,000 horses, but fortunately, Qin Yu is now leading troops in Rongzhou City, so the soldiers are guarding the city very tightly, no matter how Mu Li attacks, it is difficult for him to climb to the top of the city.

Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Mu Li had to spit out in a depressed manner, waving his hand and shouting at Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

And the Turkic army besieging the city temporarily retreated, and everyone in the city could breathe a sigh of relief, Qin Yu and the three of them stood at the head of the city, looking at the corpses lying horizontally and vertically under the city, the faces of the three of them were very ugly, although in this afternoon's offensive and defensive battle, the two armies were injured by each other, but it was obvious that Qin Yu's side suffered more casualties, which also made Qin Yu very anxious.

Looking down for a while, Qin Yu couldn't help but squeeze his fists and shouted: "What is he doing, why haven't I seen him attack the Turkic army from the rear." ”

"Something may have happened to the general, that's why he couldn't cooperate with our attack in time. Wu Youji whispered in Qin Yu's ear.

"What will trap more than 50,000 people and horses, what is going on in the rear?" Qin Yu couldn't help but wonder for a while.

He now wants to know what happened to the army led by Li Yao in the rear, why there has been no movement so far, it stands to reason that as soon as their side starts fighting, Li Yao should lead his troops to attack from the rear quietly, and then kill the Turkic army by surprise.

But now the 50,000 army led by Li Yao still doesn't know where to go, how can you let Qin Yu not be in a hurry.

Just when Qin Yu was in a hurry, the old city lord of Rongzhou City slowly walked up from under the city, and came to Qin Yu and the three, the old city lord said to Qin Yu: "General Qin, go down and eat something to rest for a while! You haven't slept much since last night, it's time to take a good rest, the Turkic army will not attack the city at night, this is the habit of the Turks, they don't like to move at night, as if they are in a place where there is no grassland." ”

"Old city lord, what do you mean by this? Could it be that the Turks only move at night when they are on the steppe?" asked Wu Youji suspiciously.

"Your Highness, do you know, the Turkic people are a people on horseback, the most inseparable thing when fighting is the horse, the horse is in the steppe, even at night it can gallop wantonly, without hindrance, but as soon as the horse on the grassland leaves the grassland, it will not dare to run around at night, after all, like Rongzhou City, there are already many mountains and hills, if the grassland horse is messed up at night, will it not fall very badly? So they will only sleep at night, and will not run around. The old city lord patiently explained to Wu Youji.

Qin Yu and Hua Niang nodded again and again when they heard this, and they all praised this old guy for not being the city lord of the border city in vain.

The old city lord didn't care, and said: "According to my observation, the Turkic army is now less than half of the before, I estimate that the men and horses led by General Xue in the rear should be exposed, and the enemy general ordered his generals to lead half of the army to go in to meet the attack, otherwise it is impossible that General Xue has not led his troops to raid from the rear now." ”

"If he exposes his whereabouts, then he will be alone and in danger. Qin Yu frowned and said solemnly.

"Yes, if the Turkic army under Rongzhou City now withdraws reinforcements, then General Xue's lone army will definitely be wiped out, and I can only hope that General Xue has not exposed his whereabouts, otherwise, even Rongzhou City will be in danger. In the end, the old city lord sighed helplessly.

Obviously, the veteran has seen the situation very clearly, if Li Yao's rear army is all annihilated, then Rongzhou City will be finished sooner or later, so now they can only pray that Li Yao can lead the army to fight from the rear, so that the two ends can form a front and rear attack, and take the Turkic army in one fell swoop, otherwise, it is only a matter of time before Rongzhou City is broken.

Of course, what the four of them didn't know at this time was that Li Yao was already in a dangerous situation of being alone now, just because Wu Sansi was a bastard, not only did Li Yao go deep alone, but also caused Li Yao to directly lose nearly 20,000 horses, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Li Yao's current situation is very dangerous.

If the four of them knew about this, it is estimated that they would all be eager to behead Wu Sansi with one sword.

Qin Yu was solemn for a while before he spoke: "No matter what, I have to find a way to hold back the Turkic army here, and I must not let him withdraw to help." ”

"Then I don't know General Qin, but what is the clever plan?" the old city lord asked lightly.

"Even if the horse is an important combat tool of the Turkic army, then why don't we start with the horse and put down the horses of the Turkic army in front first, so that they will have no horses, even if they want to withdraw reinforcements, it will take a lot of time, which will buy General Xue more time. Wu Xiaoji lowered his head and muttered in a low voice.

When Qin Yu heard him say this, he immediately clenched his fists and said coldly: "Yes, this method is good, tonight General Ben will personally lead the team, sneak into the enemy camp, and put down the horses of the Turkic army." ”

"Without horses, they would not have a strong cavalry corps, and it would be much easier to fight. The old city lord also nodded and drank.

Qin Yu and Wu Youji glanced at each other, and both of them nodded solemnly.

After night, the two of them took a dozen soldiers with good skills, each carrying a small bag of croton, quietly out of Rongzhou City, and sneaked towards the Turkic army camp two miles away.

In the valley behind Yin Mountain.

Tashi who attacked for an afternoon, because he couldn't attack Li Yao for a long time, so he had to temporarily withdraw his troops, and did not continue to attack, but led the army to surround the valley a mile away, Tashi thought that as long as this way, the army in the valley would be difficult to fly, and after an afternoon, Tashi still didn't know that the commander in the valley was Li Yao, if he knew, he would not be as calm as now.

Li Yao, who was hiding in the valley, saw that Tashi had stopped entering the palace, so he summoned all the generals and said to them: "The Turkic army has stopped attacking, you do as I instruct, and let the soldiers climb to the top of this valley at night." ”

"How can you climb so high?" asked the generals in unison.

"Find some people who are good at climbing to climb up first, and then fix the rope and put it down, and let everyone pull the rope up? This is still taught by Lao Tzu, you are stupid in fighting, right?" Li Yao scolded these generals in a mouthful of anger.

The generals were embarrassed to hear this, so they had to do as Li Yao instructed.

Li Yao roughly estimated that the peaks on both sides of this valley are not more than ten meters high, and it is not impossible to climb up, and as long as these 30,000 soldiers all climb to the top of the mountain in one night, then they will not only have a chance to run, but also make Tashi suffer a big loss.

This is the trick that Li Yao came up with after thinking about it all afternoon.

Seeing Li Yao standing there and smirking, Hua Lin couldn't help but step forward and asked, "What are you smirking at?"

"It's nothing, it's just that he thinks about how he will feel tomorrow when Tashi leads his troops into the valley and finds that there is no one in the valley. Li Yaole's answer was flowery.

Hua Lin listened in the clouds, and didn't understand the meaning of Li Yao's words at all.
