"The smell of blood in the air is getting stronger, but why can't we spot our people?"

Su Dingfang said a little strangely, they have already found a lot of tribes, and got the whereabouts of the Tang army from their mouths, and now the balloon that should be near them has also risen, but because of the cloudy weather, the line of sight is unknown.

"Double down on the horses."

Li Xiang was also a little anxious at this time, because he got a message from the captive that the Tang army has suffered heavy losses now, compared to when they just entered the grassland, their army has lost nearly half, and generally speaking, when an army loses one-third, it is possible to rout, which means that all of them are the elite of the Tang Dynasty, otherwise they would have been unable to hold on.

Because of the rain, the grassland is now muddy, and Li Xiang is also a little bitter here.

"Your Highness, look, the water in this river is red."

Just when they couldn't find their minds, a young general came from the river, just now he wanted to fetch water, although Li Xiang did not allow them to drink raw water, but there was no way in an emergency, when there was some blood in the river, he went up the river, and the red upstream was thicker, this guy didn't dare to delay, and hurried back to report.

"Bring the sounding balloon, plus your two thousand cavalry, and let me go up the river."

Finally found a little news, although there are other tribes around here, but according to the report of the people on the balloon, those tribes have been burned to ashes, it is obvious that this was a place where the Turks gathered in the past, but because of the war, now they are all gone, cutting off Li Xiang's idea of getting news from them.

Li Xiang had a bad premonition in his heart, this premonition had never appeared, if he could, Li Xiang would rather set off a few days earlier, even if he didn't get Li Shimin's order, he should have set off a few days earlier.

"Your Highness, look upstream."

In fact, the grenade was filled with some colored sand, and the people on the sounding balloon threw it directly, and the grenade exploded in the sky, and it could be seen within a dozen kilometers nearby.

"The whole army will set camp for me."

Finally there was news, Li Xiang immediately stepped on his war horse, with 8,000 cavalry rushed out first, the rest of the people dismantled the tent in place, they had to take these things with them, it was a protracted battle on the grassland, they couldn't throw these things away, not to mention that there was a lot of gunpowder behind, now it was raining in the sky, they had wrapped up the gunpowder, if there was a careless, these gunpowder into the water would be useless.

Wu Wang Li Ge couldn't hold on, after he hacked four people to death, he saw that a knife was about to be inserted into his throat, fortunately Li Zhilong rushed from the side, and came over to save his life, otherwise he might be the first Tang prince to die in the grassland.

The surrounding situation is also very bad, several defense lines have been broken through, behind the Datang soldiers there are some Xue Yantuo soldiers who rushed in, seeing that the entire camp is about to be in chaos, no matter how hard they try, the gap in strength is here, Wu Wang Li Ke closed his eyes a little helplessly, he no longer has the strength to stand up, just wait for the judgment of God at this moment.

"Come and see, come and see, come and see, our people are our people."

A soldier waved a steel knife in his hand and said, behind the Turkic soldiers, a cavalry rushed in directly, although the number was not very large, but their impact was very strong.

"It's our Datang army."

Everyone could see it very clearly, there was a huge Tang character waving in front, and there was such a military flag on the grassland, could it be Xue Yantuo's army?

"They've finally found us, and our reinforcements have finally arrived."

Many soldiers have cried with joy at this moment, they still can't hold on, but after seeing our army, these people don't know what's going on, they seem to be full of strength, they pick up their steel knives with their backhands, and cut down the enemy in front of them, and now the reinforcements are next to us, we can't collapse at the last moment.

The young general only brought 2,000 men, but even if there were only 2,000 men, he did not flinch, and rushed into the army of the Turkic king with his men, and the 2,000 men all had crossbows in their hands, and no matter where they rushed, the armies everywhere fell in pieces.

When the ten sleeve arrows were fired, these people also took out the steel knives in their hands, facing tens of thousands of grasslands, and the army did not have any fear, and under the leadership of the young general, they rushed straight to Xue Yantuo's army.

"It's my good son of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Ke, the king of Wu, also saw this scene, but he was also a little sour in his heart, these people were all Li Xiang's subordinates, just a young general, with 2,000 people, he dared to attack Xue Yantuo's Chinese army, and put it in the entire Tang army, so it has to be said that he stood in front.

"Don't care about those people, they only have two thousand people, and they can't make any tricks, let me continue to attack the Tang army in front, and I must capture their prince."

Xue Yantuo Khan is not a fool, he knows very well at the moment, if these people buy time, then there is no way to capture King Wu, now the most important thing is to arrest people with status, only if people with status are arrested, then there are conditions for negotiation with Datang.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a slight vibration on his left side, they have always been people who live on the grassland, so they naturally understand what is going on, there should be a lot of cavalry from there.

"Bring your cavalry and give me a standout."

Xue Yantuo Khan said loudly, he is ready to personally lead the troops to rush forward, now he must catch the king of Wu, if he does not catch the king of Wu, it will be equivalent to the loss of his men in vain, the reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty have come, they will continue to pursue the north with the remaining army, and then Xue Yantuo will have to refer to Tuyuhun.

A general under Xue Yantuo led the order to rush forward with his own five thousand cavalry, and when they saw Li Xiang with a white horse and silver armor in front of them, this guy had only one idea, that is, to escape, and to escape as fast as possible......
