Chapter 630: The End of the Road
Jieli led the guards, as well as the remnants of the defeated army that had been gathered, and rushed westward without stopping. As a result, just as he was running west, Wang Xuanji appeared here.
The moment he saw the tens of thousands of Tang cavalry, Jieli only felt that the sky was dark.
finally escaped with his life, but in the next second, a larger number of Tang troops were loaded.
But this time he didn't have that good luck.
After Wang Xuanji broke the Turkic Western Route Army, he quickly outflanked here, just to block Jieli's escape route.
Jieli also knew that he had to fight hard at this time, and without hesitation, he directly ordered the army to take advantage of the fact that the Tang army did not open a formation and take the opportunity to escape.
Jieli said viciously: "Although we lost this time, there are still thousands of Turks on the steppe, as long as Ben Khan escapes, he will definitely come back and break through Chang'an!" ”
The Jieli army fled quickly, but how could Wang Xuanji let him go, and immediately led the army to chase after him.
Jieli fled in a hurry, the armor was not complete, and most of the horses were just one horse. After the first charge, it did open up some distance, but the war horse is not a strong animal, and it will not take long to slow down.
And Wang Xuanji commanded a large number of cavalry this time, and after seeing Jieli fleeing, he immediately led two thousand cavalry to chase over.
The two thousand cavalrymen were all one man and three horses, plus they had superb riding skills, and they clung to Jieli. Even if the Jieli Turkic BMW is extraordinary, but under the alternation of three war horses, it can't be thrown off at all.
And as time went by, the war horses of these Turks became more and more tired, and they gradually could not run.
Wang Xuanji was still chasing unhurriedly, alternating three war horses, and there was always a war horse to preserve his strength. This was originally a long-distance run that only the northern nomads could play, but this time it was taken out by Wang Xuanji to chase Jieli.
It is just to treat others in the way of others.
Jieli was chased in embarrassment, and fled all the way to Yinshan, and Wang Xuanji did not stop all the way. Along the way, there were constantly Turkic war horses left behind, and then they were chased and killed by the Tang army.
Originally, there were thousands of people who followed Jieli, but as they pursued, the number became smaller and smaller, and some Turkic soldiers fled when they saw that things were not going well, and some surrendered.
Wang Xuanji is proficient in cavalry, and he also has a ruthless spirit, he can chase the enemy and bite tightly, eat on the horse, can chase the enemy without clothes, and chase the enemy into the sky without a way, and there is no way to enter the ground.
The pursuit is not over until the enemy has no strength to escape, the confidence of the pursuing enemy collapses, and the pursuing enemy army scatters and surrenders.
And this time the same was true of the pursuit of Jieli, the army around Jieli had been continuously dispersed, and two days later, there were less than 500 soldiers left around Jieli.
The vast majority of them were his personal guards and the most loyal to him, and the others had already fled in all directions.
Even the remaining guards have reached the limit, Wang Xuanji chased all the way, did not give him any time to rest at all, once deliberately let Jieli rest and let him cook, but before he had time to eat, Wang Xuanji led the army to rush up.
Jieli looked at the food he had just made, and he didn't even eat a bite, so he had to lead people to continue to escape. And Wang Xuanji didn't dislike these foods, so they directly divided them by two, ate them, and then rode on their horses again to chase them.
Jieli looked sad and angry, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt wronged.
It's too bullying.
I've been chasing me for two days, and I haven't eaten for two days, and I finally made a mouthful of hot food, but I didn't eat a bite, and you caught up again.
The food we just made turned out to fill the stomachs of the Tang people, and those Tang people even ate the food they made, and continued to chase them when they were full!
And they're going to run hungry!
The more Jieli thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, from the time he was born until he became a Turkic Khan, he had never suffered such a great grievance.
"Great Khan, we can't run, we can't outrun those Tang people!" The chief of the guard next to him whispered.
"Those Tang people are all one person and three horses, riding in turns, if they really wanted to chase, they would have been able to catch up with us a long time ago, and now they are hanging behind, just to exhaust our physical strength!"
"This is our grassland tactics, just like those wolves, constantly chasing their prey, until the prey is exhausted, they will pounce on their prey with fangs and bite their prey!"
Jieli also understood that before this, he had been pinning his hopes on the Turkic tribes to come to the rescue, or the Tang army behind him was not skilled in riding and could not catch up, or the Tang army itself lost its way.
Now that all these expectations have been punctured, the miracle he was expecting has not appeared, and if he continues to run like this, when the horse's strength is completely exhausted, they will no longer have any power to resist.
After understanding this, Jieli could only stop, ready to fight to the death.
On the eternal grassland, the north wind is howling, and at the foot of Yin Mountain, two cavalry armies finally clash here.
Yinshan, the sacred mountain in the hearts of the nomads, has witnessed the rise and fall of the nomads, and today it has begun to witness the decline of the Turks.
The sky was gloomy, the north wind was like a knife, and the surrounding killing cries resounded in the sky. Wang Xuanji took 2,000 cavalry and chased for three days in a row, and finally forced Jieli to have to fight a decisive battle with him.
Two thousand Tang troops, armed with horses and crossbows, charged the Turks. The Turks shot arrows one after another, and then rushed forward with all sorts of weapons.
The war horse neighed, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and people kept falling off the horse, and then being trampled into flesh by the war horse, and the blood soon soaked the earth.
How could the Turks, who had long been exhausted, be the opponents of the elite of the Tang Dynasty?
The army defeated the Turks again, and this time the Turks did not even have a chance to flee for their lives, and Jieli Khan was captured by Wang Xuanji.
Jieli wanted to resist, but in the face of Wang Xuanji, he couldn't even make a move, so he was knocked off the horse by a horse lance, and then pressed to the ground by the surrounding soldiers Sisi.
Wang Xuanji didn't want to kill him, after all, Jieli, as the lord of DTZ, is the king of a country, and only the emperor is qualified to decide the life and death of an enemy of this level.
"Surrender, Jieli, you have no way out!" Wang Xuanji rode on the horse, looked at Jieli and said.
Jieli Khan had completely lost any spirit at this time, and his pride and ambition seemed to have been lost by a lance just now.
"Wang Xuanji, if you lead such a few people to dare to go deep into the grassland for thousands of miles, aren't you afraid that the whole army will be wiped out?"
"The whole army is annihilated, it seems that Jieli you haven't heard of the prestige of my Wang clan!" Wang Xuanji smiled: "Okay, how can you, a barbarian who doesn't read history books, know about my Wang family?" ”
"Now I will escort you back to Chang'an!"
