Chapter 1226 The unlucky ones who fought hard and the cheap ones
The news of Gushi Khan's escape, Liang Yue sent someone to notify Batur Huntaiji, but did not notify Gama Danjun.

Firstly, the connection with Batur Huntaiji has been smooth, and the messenger is very convenient in the past.But Gama Danjun is on the other side of the Tang-Fan ancient road, and Gushhan Khan is caught in the middle, so it is impossible to go there.

Secondly, neither Liang Yue nor Gama Dan had any friendship, so if he sent people there rashly, his head might be beheaded.

Liang Yue didn't care if Gamadan didn't get any news about whether he would be defeated by Gushi Khan's sneak attack.

Now in order to deal with Gushi Khan, the three families are still allies.But when Gushi Khan is eliminated, the relationship between them is not necessarily the same.

Any opportunity to weaken potential opponents should be used or used.

This is also the fundamental reason why the alliance has had no good results throughout the ages.

Liang Yue just chased after Gushhan, advancing steadily and step by step.

Batur Huntaiji originally wanted to cross Qinghai Lake and attack Gushi Khan from behind.After being notified by Liang Yue, he immediately changed direction.Directly climb over the tall mountains from the south of Qinghai Lake, and head south rapidly all the way.

Apparently he also knew that it was impossible to stop Gushi Khan with Kamadan alone.

Although his army is still thousands of miles away, it seems unable to prevent the defeat of Karma Danjun.But although Qinghai is big, the road is very simple.

Batur Huntaiji was not worried at all, and would let Gushi Khan go.

The situations faced by the four groups of people are different, and the results are also different.

Gushi Khan learned that Liang Yue was chasing after him, so he had no choice but to keep troops along the road to stop him.

Fortunately, the ancient roads of Tang and Tibet were very steep, and as long as a small number of soldiers and horses were left in the narrow and critical places, it would be able to cause great trouble for Liang Yue.

Liang Yue caught up with Gushi Khan's blocking troops in Yaoshui Canyon.

The old place where the Tang Dynasty fought against Tubo, now there are two completely different armies fighting together.

The Han and Mongolian allied forces encountered the troubles of the previous Gushri Khan.

The narrowest part of the Yaoshui Canyon was firmly stuck by the Qinghai Allied Forces, and despite Liang Yue's mad attack for two days, no progress was made.

When he was anxious, Jiang Chaoyun became ruthless.

He led three hundred elite soldiers, climbed the snow-covered mountains regardless of the severe cold, bypassed the enemy's defense line, and suddenly appeared behind.

The Qinghai Allied Forces did not expect the enemy to appear behind them at all, and they were in chaos immediately. They were attacked by Liang Yue and Jiang Chaoyun from both sides, and they were quickly wiped out.

The Han and Mongolian allied forces rushed out of the Yaoshui Canyon, but they also lost the trace of Gushi Khan.

"Don't worry, general, there is only one road here. As long as you go forward, you will be able to catch up with Gushi Khan."

Among the Qinghai Allied Forces, some of those who surrendered happily betrayed the information.

These are the people who were abandoned by Gushi Khan in Huangyuan.

Since Gushi Khan is not benevolent, of course they are not righteous.

After being rescued by the Han and Mongolian coalition forces, he immediately and willingly took refuge here.

This is the nature of nomads, without the concept of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness.

With the help of these locals, the fog of war in front of Liang Yue completely dissipated.

When he attacked Yaoshui Canyon, Gushi Khan personally led the most elite soldiers and horses to Guide (now Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture).

The plateau army led by Karma Danjun will arrive here and is being repaired.

These plateau troops did not expect that Gush Khan would suddenly return to troops, and appeared in front of them without warning.

Gushi Khan saw that the plateau army was unprepared, so what is there to be polite?

At the time of life and death, he took the lead and rushed into the camp of the plateau army first, holding his saber high.

These plateau people have long lost the bravery of their ancestors, and faced the sudden attack, they quickly became a mess.

Gama Danjun wanted to maintain it at first, but when he saw Gushi Khan's handsome flag getting closer, he was frightened and turned around and ran away.

He, the king, has run away, let alone the others.

The nobles and generals followed closely behind, and the remaining soldiers were terrified of being killed, and lost their weapons and supplies, only hating their parents for losing their two legs.

It was a crushing defeat.

Two-thirds of the [-] troops brought out by Gama Dan were lost.

Fortunately, Gushi Khan was extremely exhausted after running for a long distance, and he had no energy after chasing fifty miles away.

Gama Danjun and others ran wildly all the way, and did not dare to stop to catch their breath until they could no longer see Gushi Khan's pursuers.

Gathering and gathering the defeated soldiers, it was seen that there were only less than [-] people left, and almost all weapons and food and grass were lost. Gamadan cried on the spot.

However, the generals knew that the danger was not over yet, and after all kinds of consolation, the plateau army withdrew from the undefended wilderness, went all the way south to the Xingxiu seaside, and stopped after reuniting with the follow-up plateau army.

After solving the previous interception, Gushi Khan's action speed has increased a lot.

Relying on the food supplies captured by the plateau army, after a big sigh of relief, Gushi Khan decided that it was better to pursue the poor bandits with his remaining bravery, so he drove Gama Danjun to fight.

Now it depends on whether he will completely wipe out Karma Danjun first, or Liang Yue will catch up with him first.

The difference in this order will determine victory or defeat.

Knowing that Gamadan had retreated to Xingxiu Sea, Gushi Khan chased him all the way.

The land of Xingxiu Sea is dotted with countless lakes. When the sun shines on a clear day, it reflects bright light, just like the stars in the sky, hence the name Xingxiu Sea.

Because there are many lakes, natural aquatic plants are densely covered, and swamps are everywhere, the terrain is very complicated and dangerous.

People who are not very familiar with the local environment can easily get lost here, or even get stuck in the swamp and die.

Whether it is Karma Danjun or Gushi Khan, be careful in this place.

The two parties came and went, tried several times in succession, but failed to find a suitable opportunity.

Gushi Khan was quite puzzled.

It was obvious that Gama Danjun had been defeated before, why did the opponent stabilize their position at this time?

He didn't know at all that when he heard him chasing, Gamadan was planning to run away again.

But at this moment, Batur Huntaiji's messenger finally came over.

When it was learned that the reinforcements from the Junggar tribe were three hundred miles away, the morale of the plateau army was immediately shaken.

They deeply understand that as long as Gushhan is delayed for a few days and the Junggar tribe arrives, there will be no suspense about the outcome.

Behind Gushi Khan, Liang Yue's progress was very hard.

Many people in the army did not adapt to the plateau climate at all, and fell ill one after another.And all the dangerous passes were blocked by Gushri Khan's soldiers and horses.

Liang Yue could only fight one by one all the way, and paid a heavy price in every place.

It took a full month and a half before he finally caught up with Dou Cuo.

The Xingxiu Sea was already in sight, and Gushi Khan's retreat was completely blocked.

The pattern of the battle has been completely formed.
