Chapter 155: Encirclement and Reinforcements
Ronggong tribe.
Uncle Yu Dan is eating grapes in his tent, not to mention this thing in the Tuyuhun grassland, even in the rich land of the Central Plains, it is not the season to produce now, and it is impossible to eat it at all, but for the only imperial uncle in Tuyuhun, this thing is not a luxury thing, as long as he wants to eat this thing, someone will ride a fast horse and gallop thousands of miles to send it to him.
Although there has been a lot of chaos on the grassland recently, and there are constantly tribes being wiped out, but the imperial uncle Yu Dan still has nothing to worry about, because the tribe he is in is relatively strong, and the other is that it is far away from Liangzhou City, and the straight-line distance has exceeded 800 miles, do those Tang troops dare to go deep into the hinterland?
What's more, when the camp was built, he had already considered that someone was sneaking up, so he built it with his back to the mountain, and he didn't worry about someone rushing down from the mountain at all, and two military camps were also placed on the left and right sides.
What's more, according to past experience, no matter how fierce the Tang army is, it will take three months at most, if the battle cannot be solved within three months, then the Tang army is likely to retreat immediately, the Tang Dynasty seems to be extremely powerful, but for a long time in the grassland, their money simply can't keep up, and then the soldiers can't adapt to the local life, all kinds of things emerge in endlessly, and a disease alone can't be solved.
"Uncle Qiqi, we received a letter from Liangzhou City, they said that another army has returned to the city recently, it seems that it has suffered a crushing defeat on the grassland, there were more than 8,000 people when they went out, and now they have returned more than 3,000 people."
While Uncle Huang was enjoying himself, his subordinates sent another piece of news that made him very happy.
In the past few days, two armies have retreated, according to the information they have gotten, the Tang army has sent a total of six armies to attack the grassland, and a third has failed at present, and there are still four armies hidden in the depths of the grassland, and now it has only been a month, and a third of the army has failed, and by the next month, maybe these armies will not be able to hold on, and it is not so easy for a Han to live on the grassland.
"Has the Great Khan's Iron Rider been found?"
Yu Dan suddenly remembered another thing, no matter how miserable the Tang army was, it was impossible to immediately change the situation in front of him, a few days ago, the eldest princess disappeared from everyone's sight, so the Khan immediately sent his elite to search, and ordered other tribes to cooperate in the search, but to everyone's surprise, the Khan's iron cavalry was also missing.
"There is no news yet, but Uncle Huang doesn't have to worry, the Great Khan's iron cavalry is the strongest cavalry on our grassland, they will never have an accident, they should have been tripped somewhere, now there are soldiers everywhere on the grassland, and many tribes have begun to migrate, so it is normal to not find the eldest princess."
The people under him said comfortingly, they also know that the cavalry under the Great Khan is the strongest, if even they have an accident, then the mentality of the people on the entire steppe may collapse, before finding real evidence, everyone will not say that this cavalry has been killed, even if they already have a bad premonition in their hearts, they must not say it, this is easy to shake the morale of the army.
"A girl doesn't stay in the royal court honestly, and she has to go out hunting at every turn, especially at this time, I don't know how much trouble it has brought to us Tuyuhun, if she is caught back this time, I will see if her father is still protecting her?"
When it comes to the eldest princess, the imperial uncle doesn't have a good impression at all, as the eldest princess of Tuyuhun, don't you know what the situation is now? Even if you want to hunt, it can only be on some grasslands in the south, and you can casually run near the battlefield in the north, if you are really caught by the Tang army, it will be a huge blow to the entire Tuyuhun army.
"Don't be stunned, count the days they have also entered the depths of the grassland, from today onwards, all the people will take people out on patrol for me, each carrying a team of 1,000 people, if you find the Tang army, immediately warn on the grassland, no one can go over to fight them, this king will personally slaughter them."
Uncle Huang looked at his subordinates who were full of tents and said, these people are also the elite of the grassland, they don't do anything in this tent every day, and they haven't fought for a long time, and Uncle Huang doesn't know how much strength they have, so at this time, you have to let them go out to practice, if you find the Tang Army, then you can take the team to make meritorious service immediately, even if you can't find it, let your soldiers go out to do a little bit of activity, so as not to be wiped out in the tribe.
"Yes..."
These people under his command can also see that Uncle Huang's patience has become less and less in the past two days, and it is better to take people out for a walk or two while staying here, anyway, it is impossible to be in danger after we go out with our own people around, if we continue to stay in the tent, we may be disgusted by Uncle Huang.
"It's not good, it's not good, report to Uncle Huang, the Kayan tribe on our west side was attacked by the Tang army, and they sent people to us for help."
The soldiers here haven't gone out yet, and there will be a herald coming in immediately, after the emperor heard the news, there was no trace of panic on his face, but he was very excited, after waiting for so long, he finally came, no matter which way you are in the Tang Army, Lao Tzu will take his men to destroy you.
"How many Tang troops are there?"
Yu Dan stood up with a bang, knocked over the table in front of him, and all kinds of rare fruits on the table rolled to the ground, but at this moment Yu Dan didn't have the kung fu to care about this, he just wanted to know how many people there were in this Tang army, if there were not many people, he would take his subordinates to pick up credit.
"Report to Uncle Huang, according to what they said, it is at most 7,000 people."
After hearing the news, Yu Dan was overjoyed.
"What are the cubs waiting for? Hurry up and go out and put on your horse, today I will take you to exterminate this Tang army, and tomorrow I will ask for credit for you in front of the Khan. ”
Uncle Yu Dan said excitedly, people on the grassland have always said that they are useless, and they have everything they have now by being born in the heavenly family, Lao Tzu will have a good fight today, let you see Lao Tzu's ability.
