Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 477
The frost has fallen and the earth is white and clean.

The tops of the withered grass were covered with frost and mist, and there was a rushing sound, and the horseshoes hit like a storm, instantly flattening the ground, leaving a series of dense horseshoe prints.

"Why are you chasing me! I'm not from the Olympic Shooting Department, are you crazy?"

A Turkic man, speaking unproficient Chinese, shouted at Tang Qi who was chasing after them.

Behind him, the plate armored rider stared at the Turkic man in front of him through the gap in his visor.They took out special iron arrows from behind and straightened the crossbow.

Qin Qiong was even more straightforward. He took out the special short spear that he specially asked Yuwen Rutong to make from the horse bag.

Rumble!
The war horse roared.

"Listen to my orders!"

Qin Qiong let out a loud roar, and immediately threw the short spear out. Like a shooting star, the short spear crossed a perfect parabola and pierced straight into the back of the Turkic man's neck.

"Ah!" The Turkic who was recruited died suddenly on the spot.

"Shoot!" Qin Qiong ordered suddenly.

shhhhhh!
The crossbow machine worked quickly, and the iron arrows pierced through the morning mist and hit the fleeing Turkic people accurately.

All of a sudden, everyone in the Turks turned on their backs and died tragically.

Hundreds of Tang cavalry caught up and yelled 'drinking' around the Turkic corpse.

Under Qin Qiong's leadership, they gradually fell in love with the thrill of chasing and killing prey.Especially when massacring Turkic tribes, he was very obsessed.

The hatred between Tang people and Turkic people has lasted for decades.

Qin Qiong opened his visor, revealing a determined face, and exhaled lightly.

"Dig a hole and bury it, go to the next tribe."

"Yes!"

The effect of training troops on the grassland is very obvious. In actual combat, Qin Qiong worked out more than a dozen sets of tactics with Xu Shiji based on the performance of the plate cavalry.

The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy can win a hundred battles. The more you fight the Turks, the more Qin Qiong knows how to deal with the Turks.

Fear comes from the unknown, and when they are familiar with Turks, the fear will no longer exist.

Another day of fighting was over, and Qin Qiong led his army back to the temporary camp at the foot of the mountain.

Opening the curtain, Qin Qiong saw Xu Shiji circled and drawn something on the map. When he took a closer look, he realized that he was removing the mark of "Turkic tribes that have been wiped out".

Xu Shiji said: "Basically, there are no major troops in this area. According to the news from the scouts, Xieli's troops should be gathering in the east. It seems that they are going to attack Shibobi in Youzhou."

"Youzhou?" Qin Qiong put down his whip and pondered, "Duan Zhixuan and Xie Shufang are over there, are they in danger?"

"Probably not." Xu Shiji said: "The news we know was sent by someone sent by His Highness, so Duan Zhixuan and the others should know about it too. Besides, Xieli should not dare to cause trouble now. You and I stay here For a period of time, the grassland is very cold this year, and I am afraid that many cattle and sheep will freeze to death. If Jieli starts a war with our dynasty now, it will be a dead end."

"That's true." Qin Qiong nodded, and immediately said: "However, we can't take it lightly, and we still have to send someone to tell His Highness."

"Every day, I have sent someone to send the news to Chang'an."

Qin Qiong said: "Let these Turkic people be arrogant for another year or two. After one or two years, they must pay the price!"

"En." Xu Shiji nodded.

At this moment, the scouts came to report.

"Colonel, catch a Turkic man, he said he is Xue Yantuo's envoy, and asked to meet with the Counselor."

"Xue Yantuo?" Qin Qiong and Xu Shiji looked at each other.

As the majority of the Turks, Xue Yantuo was the backbone of the Ashina Dynasty, with more than [-] families and nearly [-] warriors.

As a general of the Tang Dynasty, how could Qin Qiong not know about such a large tribe.

"Take him to the tent."

"Yes."

After the scouts left, Qin Qiong asked strangely: "The envoy Xue Yantuo came to see us at this time, what do they want to do?"

Xu Shiji narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm afraid it has something to do with Xieli."

"Jeli?"

"Ah."

Partial account.

The person who came was the nephew of Xue Yantuo's leader, Yinan, named Tumozhi.

"What do you want to do here?" Qin Qiong looked at Du Mozhi.

As a brawny man in the grassland, Duo Mozhi was tall and strong, and he was a macho at first glance.

Tumozhi did not understand Chinese, so he could only express himself through a translator.

Generally speaking, Xue Yantuo wanted to rely on the Tang Dynasty, and the two sides joined forces to deal with Jieli.

Hearing this, Qin Qiong and Xu Shiji looked at each other, they were slightly surprised that they really had something to do with Jieli.

"Why should we trust you?" Qin Qiong asked expressionlessly.

Tuomozhi said: "Please believe in our sincerity. This year, the grassland was very cold, and many cattle and sheep in our tribe froze to death, but Jieli asked us to donate all the cattle, sheep and soldiers to join him in the conquest of Shibobi.

Our tribe can no longer support it, as long as you are willing to help, Xue Yantuo will always surrender to the Tang Kingdom! "

Xu Shiji sneered, "Your surrender is hard to believe. In the past, Chu Luo Khan and I made peace, and even Jie Li made an alliance, but you broke your faith again and again and went south. I really thought we were Are you as stupid as you think!"

Tuo Mozhi was at a loss for words, he was not good at words, and he didn't know how to persuade General Tang.

At this time, Qin Qiong said: "It's not impossible to cooperate, you go back and tell Yi Nan, let him go to Chang'an in person to meet my pilgrim."

Du Mozhi's face changed, if Yi Nan went to Chang'an, it would be yellow mud falling into his crotch, either shit or shit, Xieli would directly think that Xue Yantuo had rebelled.

"No, Uncle has already gone to the East with Jieli, so I can't go to Chang'an for the time being."

"Then there's nothing to talk about." Qin Qiong said coldly, "Go back."

Tumozhi was in a hurry. He came this time because he was really ordered by Yinan to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty and prepare to deal with Jieli.

If he went back empty-handed like this, not only would it be difficult for Yinan to explain, even Xue Yantuo would be exploited to death by Jieli.

After talking and talking, Xu Shiji asked Du Mozhi to go back and discuss with Yi Nan before making a decision.

After seeing off Tumozhi, Qin Qiong asked, "Yi Nan really wants to join forces with us?"

"It's hard to say." Xu Shiji said: "The reason why the prairie people are good at fighting is because they grew up on horseback. We eat millet, and they eat meat. If the sky is not merciful, we still have surplus food, but the prairie people can only fight. Waiting for death. The grasslands are indeed colder this year, and the wars on the grasslands have not stopped at all.

If the exploitation is continuous, it is not impossible for Xue Yantuo to rebel.

Of course, this may also be Xue Yantuo's strategy. They want me to fight to the death with Jieli, and then they will reap the benefits of the fisherman. "

Qin Qiong sneered, "If the thief really succeeds, I will be ashamed to be a soldier!"

"No matter what, we just wait and see what happens. Your Highness has a comprehensive plan. Whether Xue Yantuo surrenders or rebels is irrelevant." Xu Shiji said.

Qin Qiong wrapped the cloak around her body, and said: "Your Highness, I am here to train troops, and it has achieved results. The Austrian Sheshe and other departments have been destroyed. Presumably, Jieli has got the news. Now that Xue Yantuo came here, it can be seen that our position has been changed. Known by the Turks.

Mao Gong, I plan to lead the army to retreat for [-] miles, leaving a group of people here, waiting for news from Xue Yantuo, what do you think? "

"Very good." Xu Shiji said: "It is imperative to be on guard against others. His Royal Highness has entrusted us with a heavy responsibility. We must not take it lightly and trust foreigners."

Two hours later, the Tang army withdrew its camp and retreated thirty miles.

When going abroad, they must be vigilant at all times in order not to lose Jingzhou carelessly.
