Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 1364 Internal strife (Part )

The same thing happened, and the Yao Mozi that came out of Li Zhao in Jingzhao allowed the Tang army to achieve an unexpected victory. However, in Qizhou and Binzhou, Li Jing, who also had the same trick and deliberately divided his troops, did not do so well. Got lucky.

After confirming that Xue Yantuo had withdrawn his troops, Li Shan first ordered people to light the smoke. Although it was windy, it was still vaguely visible. The connected smoke could quickly transmit the message to the direction of Jingyang.

Since Yi Nan has withdrawn his troops, there won't be any problems in the war in Jingyang. It's just the difference between a small victory and a big victory.

In accordance with the agreement with Yi Nan, Li Shan sent Hu Yan and Liu Heier to lead two thousand cavalry to the west after all Xue Yantuo's troops had withdrawn from Jingzhao.

Obviously, Li Shan was afraid of Yi Nan's tricks... But in fact, Yi Nan was even more afraid of the tricks of the opposite King Wei Si.

Li Shan's reputation in this area is really not very good. His previous achievements are all there... If he suddenly launches another fierce attack like yesterday, he might be able to defeat Xue Yantuo.

Therefore, Yi Nan personally led his direct line to retreat, and the marching speed was not fast. He tried to maintain a tight formation and sent a large number of scouts to prevent an ambush and sneak attack by the Tang army.

As a result, on the east side of Qishan Mountain, a Tang cavalry suddenly shot out from the north side... After hearing the scout's report, Yi Nan was so angry that his eyes breathed fire, Li Huairen, are you really so shameless? !

Well, actually, Li Shan really doesn't take the blame for this.

Because those who came out were a thousand and five cavalry led by Zhang Shigui and Wei Yunqi. The two governors at the head were okay, but the two warriors Duan Zhixuan and Hou Hongtao charged into the battle sharply. Although they faced more than 4,000 Hu cavalry, their troops suffered a loss. In this case, the opponent is forced to retreat step by step.

Just when Yi Nan jumped angrily, preparing to call back the troops from the front, Liu Heier and Hu Yan finally arrived.

At that time, Yi Nan was really fighting on two legs, and the pursuers from the rear appeared... This place is not far from Xi County. The two previous defeats were near here. Do you want to be the third one?

Dubu Khan only escaped with his body, but his head was cut off. What would happen to him?

But before Yi Nan could make a decision, Liu Hei'er only led more than ten cavalry forward, shouting peace in Hu language, and his guards quickly moved north to the rear of the Tang army.

The fighting between the two sides gradually stopped, and they reined in their horses and retreated. Yi Nan breathed a sigh of relief and galloped out of the battle to talk to Liu Heier, but soon, the face of leader Xue Yantuo changed drastically... Li Yaoshi really went south!

Looking at Xue Yantuo's troops galloping towards the northwest, Liu Heier's temperament has always been calm and upright, but at this moment he couldn't help but his face was a little distorted... because Yi Nan specifically confessed before running away, well, sincerely, sincerely Yes, I solemnly thank King Wei Si.

Liu Heier thought to himself, you have lost more than 10,000 troops, and dozens of generals, big and small, have been killed in the battle. Even the leader of Huihe has died in the battle. Now your brother Li Zhehui leads nearly 10,000 troops and he doesn't know what he can do. Can't be reborn on the grassland... Basically everything is A Lang's handiwork, why do you still want to thank him?

As for the Tang Army, not only Duan Zhixuan and Hou Hongtao, who were eager to rescue, were confused, but Zhang Shigui and Wei Yunqi were also at a loss.

Everyone is about to fall out with that old bastard Li Jing. They rush to support, but they don't know if it's too late... The result hasn't arrived yet. Has the enemy army collapsed?

Isn’t it said that Hu Qi is overwhelming?

Doesn’t it mean that Jingzhao’s military strength is empty?

Liu Heier, Hu Yan and Zhang Shigui discussed for a while and explained Li Shan's overall plan. Zhang Shigui thought about it in his heart. Huairen obviously wanted to let Xue Yantuo go back...and then try to kill the Turks as much as possible, and then he could sit down. There was civil unrest in Guan Grassland.

At this time, four or five knights suddenly came galloping from the north. The leading knight shouted: "Where is Zhang Shigui, the governor of Yuanzhou?"

Zhang Shigui recognized that the man was Li Jing's personal guard, and actually called him by his name in public. Duan Zhixuan, who was also a member of the King of Qin's lineage, turned his horse upside down, and with one stroke, he was knocked off his horse.

Last night, it was this guy who led a dozen personal guards to blast out Zhang Shigui and others who asked for more troops. Hou Hongtao jumped off his horse with a sneer and whipped him with a riding crop.

The few knights behind did not dare to say anything. The one who was whipped was Li Jing's general, and his identity was similar to that of Li Keshi and Guo Pu next to Li Kai. Zhang Shigui ignored him and waved, "Speak."

One man stepped forward with a dry smile and looked at the cavalry around him. He also followed Li Jing in the northern and southern battles. He could tell at a glance that the number of these cavalry was definitely more than the top five... I don't know where they came from?

"The Duke of Dai has an order, asking the Duke of Nanyang County to immediately lead his troops north to Xinping in Binzhou. A large group of Hu cavalry will rout along the Jinghe River to the west, and may cross the river from Xinping."

Zhang Shigui turned to look at Liu Heier, who whispered: "According to the plan, it should be the troops led by Yi Nan's younger brother Li Zhehui, but we can't be sure."

Hu Yan thought for a while before speaking: "Regardless of whether it is true or not, rush to Xinping first. If it is Xue Yantuo, just let him go."

"Yes, if it's Turks, we can't let them cross the Jinghe River." Zhang Shigui nodded in agreement, "Hou Hongtao, stop it."

A quarter of an hour later, more than three thousand Tang cavalry turned north.

At this time, Li Shan had already received the battle report from Kuai Ma, and he couldn't help but burp... The Su family had just delivered food, and Li Shan, who hadn't eaten much last night, was a little full.

Before he even lit up the flames of war, Li Shimin rushed into the battle?

And this person took the initiative to investigate the military situation and committed suicide?

That is to say, Xue Yantuo withdrew his troops and the Turkic camp was in chaos. No one could care about it, otherwise it might be Cheng Yaojin's turn to be the savior...

But Li Shan was quite surprised that the Turks were defeated so easily...Brother She'er, why are you so useless?

But now that the overall situation has been decided, Li Shan doesn't bother to bother anymore. The first credit is naturally Li Shimin's, and he really doesn't want to take any more credit.

"It's enough to leave the infantry behind. Take them all with you along with the bodyguards and three thousand cavalry." Li Shan said lazily: "Brother Dingfang will lead the army..."

Li Shan scanned it, everyone looked excited and gearing up, even Qin Qiong looked eager.

"Uh." Li Shan scratched his beard and asked tentatively: "Do you think Duke Fou will definitely stay?"

Dou Gui snorted, but did not refute. He was now the prime minister and assistant, and he had also entered Lingyan Pavilion. There was really no need to grab credit, and he was not a direct descendant of the prince.

Looking at the crowd again, Li Shan grinned, "Okay, okay, go to everyone..."

At this time, Fan Tu suddenly came quickly and whispered a few words in Li Shan's ear. The latter stood up suddenly and said sternly: "The Duke of Fou will stay behind, and the lonely king will personally lead the army and set off immediately!"

At about this time, around the ferry in Xinping County, Binzhou, large groups of Hu cavalry were rushing towards the southwest, which was the direction of Longzhou.

As the governor of Yuanzhou, Zhang Shigui stared at the livid Li Jing with a cold face and said: "This is a military matter for Jingzhou Road, and the Duke of Dai has no right to give orders."

Hu Yan, a general of Li Jingzheng'er's Eight Classics, said directly: "King Si of Wei is appointed as the general manager of the march on Jingzhou Road. He has his own ideas for the movement of the army."
