Two days later, Mo Helu led 50,000 soldiers and horses to meet Zhao Deyan, the Turkic military commander who led the troops, a hundred miles outside the Yumen Pass.

When the two sides met, Zhao Deyan looked condescending and asked proudly: "You are Mo Hedu, the rising star of the Western Turks?" With 50,000 soldiers and horses, the menacing appearance is not going to hand over Xiao Rui? ”

Mo He said with sloppy eyes: "What Xiao Rui? I don't know this king, Jieli wants to take advantage of the chaos to attack my Western Turks, why make excuses? When he comes to war, others are afraid of his advantage, but we are not afraid of the Western Turks. ”

Zhao Deyan raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his face quickly turned cold, feeling like he was being despised for himself.

waved his hand, "Okay, what a guts!" In that case, there is no need to talk about it. Don't hand it over, we'll find it ourselves! After a drum, it is the time of death. ”

Mo Helu didn't seem to be afraid at all, even if he had a numerical disadvantage, he turned his horse's head and went back to reorganize the army.

After a war drum, the two sides beat their horses and rushed into battle, fighting together, a cavalry duel, the sky was dark, and the blood flowed like a river.

The scouts of Yumen Pass kept an eye on the battlefield until the two sides decided the winner, and then they sent people back to the city to report.

"Report, general, the 50,000 troops of the Western Turks fought with Zhao Deyan's 100,000 army, and in the end, more than half of the Western Turks were injured and scattered and fled, and Zhao Deyan sent people to chase after them. We, we're safe for the time being. ”

The Yumen guard looked at Huo Anshun with deep eyes to the north, and said worriedly: "We are safe, but the Western Turks have been defeated, and Xiao and the horses are in danger." ”

Dangerous? Of course, there are, but danger often comes with opportunity. At this moment, on the territory of the Western Turkic Mohelu, Xiao Rui has already arranged manpower, not preparing to flee for his life, but all of them are spread out to spread rumors.

In the east, Jieli wanted to take advantage of the chaos of the Western Turks to completely unify the steppe and annihilate the Western Turkic guard forces, so he sent the Western Turk traitor Yinan tribe as the vanguard and led an army of 100,000 into the Western Turks. In order to defend the territory of the Western Turks, LinkedIn, the leader of Mohedu, bravely led troops to resist, vowing to drive Jieli's people out.

The Western Turkic tribes, which were originally attacking each other, all stopped fighting and suspicion after getting the news, and sent people to inquire about the information.

Recently, I heard that he has risen rapidly and has occupied one-third of the territory of the Western Turks, as if he has threatened our position, and he is clearly aiming for the position of the Great Khan of the Western Turks. Now in order to protect the Western Turks, he can go to his death alone? I don't believe it.

Many people think so, but when their scouts saw the rout of the Western Turk Mohedu, they couldn't help but believe it, followed by about 100,000 Jieli cavalry, the fact is in front of them, Mohedu is really protecting the territory of the Western Turks.

The people of the Mohelu tribe once again lobbied the upper leaders of the various tribes, "Chiefs, I, Mohedu, will die if one of them dies, but the Western Turks cannot be occupied by Jieli." It was to oppose the brutality of the royal court that we separated the Western Turks, and now Jieli is even more brutal than the Turkic Khan of the past, and we will not be ruled by him even if we die. ”

"He has no more than 100,000 soldiers and horses around him, and our Western Turks are now leaderless, if they are united, at least 200,000 soldiers and horses will definitely be able to defeat them."

"200,000 soldiers and horses, if they are defeated by 100,000 of them, and they trample through our royal court, what face do we have to live in the world?"

……

These people are not easy to fool, everyone is worried that this is Mo Helu's trick to lure the enemy, and they want everyone to fight with Jieli to lose both, and then Mo Helu takes the opportunity to annex it.

But if you don't resist Jieli and let Jieli take down the Western Turks with 100,000 soldiers and horses, wouldn't it be in vain for everyone to fight for life and death in the past few months? What we are fighting for is the Khan of the Western Turks, not to wait for Jieli to co-opt.

"That Jieli claimed, what Tang people came to the Western Turks to arrest, but there is such a thing? It is said that Mo Helu has a team of Tang people around him, he can't vote for the Tang Dynasty, right? ”

Even Zhao Deyan couldn't hide this matter, let alone the many big tribes of the Western Turks.

Faced with this problem, Mo Helu's subordinates immediately swore that a general of the Tang Army once owed our patriarch Mo Helu's life, and came here to repay the favor, and now they have gone back. If you don't believe me, you can just ask.

Mo Helu is a ruthless man, this time he was chased and killed by Zhao Deyan, the 50,000 army is getting smaller and smaller, seeing that there are less than 20,000, and he is getting closer and closer to the hinterland of the Western Turks.

He simply sent a few teams of defeated troops as messengers, and once again urged other tribes of the Western Turks to support, really waiting for the people of Jieli to kill the royal court of the Western Turks, it is too late for you to support.

As Xiao Rui expected, even if the Western Turks were broken, they didn't dare to let Jieli's soldiers and horses kill the royal court, it was too much of a slap in the face.

So the tribes sent troops one after another, and finally the 150,000 army marched southward, and after less than a day of marching, it ran into the remnants of the broken Mohedu, as well as the two divisions of Tiele and Yinan, who were in hot pursuit.

Everyone knows that Yi Nan betrayed the Western Turks and took refuge in Jieli, so see you at this time, and everyone hates Yi Nan even more.

The Western Turkic Zuoxian King said to the embarrassed Mo Helu: "Patriarch Mohedu, it's hard work. Let's take a step back and rest for a while, and then let's defend the Western Turks. ”

After speaking, the scimitar pointed, "Kill with this king and slaughter the traitor Yi Nan!" ”

With a roar, the 150,000 army roared and rushed over like a tiger out of the cage.

Seeing this situation, Yi Nan and Tie Le, who had been exhausted for several days, couldn't help but tremble with their legs.

"Strategist, what about Strategist? Now what? ”

"The military advisor didn't come at all, he was still camping outside Yumen Pass, he was a personal vendetta of the communiqué, and deliberately deceived us to chase and kill, in fact, he asked everyone to come and send him to death."

"Run, run away, someone must flee back to report Jieli Khan, Zhao Deyan is a villain, he cheated us 100,000 children......"

……

Is Zhao Deyan really so vicious? No, he thought that the Western Turks were scattered and that no one would support Mohedu, because his order was to chase only Mohedu's territory, and the leaders of the other tribes would not unite, but would thank us for helping them eliminate the threat of Mohedu, a rising star.

But I never expected that Yi Nan and Tie Le were a little stupid, and they were confused, and the more they chased them, the deeper they chased, they only knew that they would run away with Mo He. Of course, he didn't expect that Xiao Rui had already sent someone to contact the big tribes of the Western Turks.

Where is Xiao Rui at this time? After he set off at Mo Hedu, he took his own people, quietly bypassed, and headed towards the Yumen Pass.

I thought everything was foolproof, but I didn't expect that there were 10,000 soldiers and horses outside the Yumen Pass, Turkic soldiers and horses. It seems that Zhao Deyan is a cautious person.

10,000 against 3,000, and it was to wait for work, Su Lie was a little nervous, and he stubbornly protected several second-generation people behind him, for fear that someone would be hit by a hidden arrow.

Xiao Rui boldly drove forward alone, Zhao Deyan seemed to understand, and walked out with a few guards.

This day was the first meeting between the two parties.

Zhao Deyan looked at the handsome young man with a young face in front of him, and said with appreciation and pride: "Xiao Rui and Xiao Concubine, I have been waiting for a long time. ”
