Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

The sun dipped further to the west, and dusk had come.

The battle continued on the parched grass.

The troops that can attack the enemy from the back are undoubtedly elite.

Similarly, the Gaochang Uighurs who surrendered to Dayu in order to show their value and significance also sent elites.

The duel between the elite and the elite is bound to be an inseparable duel.

A corpse fell from the horse's back...

The neighing of war horses intertwined with the shouts of soldiers.

The dark red blood gathered into a stream, flowing on the frozen grass.

Standing on the high slope, Barash looked at the setting sun in the sky, and a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes: he was almost fooled.

This Gaochang Uighur veteran general is reckless, but he has experienced many battles and his brain is not good at ordinary times, but he knows all the tricks on the battlefield like the palm of his hand.

The terrain on the Congling Plateau is harsh, with ups and downs, and it is even more difficult to attack and march around the rear.The Dragon Guard's men rushed all the way, and their physical exertion was far higher than theirs. As long as the stalemate persisted and the opponent's strength was exhausted, victory could be determined at one stroke.

Long Hu launched the attack first, intending to put all his eggs in one basket and end the battle as soon as possible.

Barash saw through this, and did not fight to the death, but consumed the remaining physical strength of the opponent. Although the current scene was stalemate, he could tell that as long as the opponent's physical strength was exhausted, it was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

However, with the stalemate in the war, the opponent's stamina was unexpected, and Barash gradually regained his senses. The opponent may be deliberately delaying time, planning to use the night and terrain to escape his bite.

A flash of determination flashed in Balash's eyes, breaking through two cities in a row, Dayu had already demonstrated the terrifying power as in the legends, if they didn't show at all, wouldn't they let the people from Ganzhou compare?

Li Chuyun has his own control standards for the use of Ganzhou Uighurs and Gaochang Uighurs.

The attack on Khotan was completed independently by Dayu, with the purpose of proving himself.Ganzhou Uighurs put a lot of effort into attacking Yingjisha. After all, they were invited to go out together, not to act as uncles and watch a show from the sidelines.

During this conquest, the Tibetan army was dominated by Ganzhou Uighurs and Gaochang Uighurs. There were hundreds or even dozens of other small tribes, all of whom joined in the fun and showed their loyalty.

The Ganzhou Uyghurs made great contributions in breaking the Battle of Yingjisha, and there was something wrong with the eyes of the Gaochang Uyghurs.

It was a look of condescension.

Barash's heart was on fire. If the small surprise army in front of him couldn't deal with it, he might be despised.

"Quick battle, don't let the thieves get away!"

Barash didn't care about casualties, anyway, before nightfall, he must eat the enemies in front of him.

"Raise the flag!"

Barash shouted, and a guard next to him suddenly raised a simple and rough banner with white and black lines, and a huge wolf head embroidered on it.

Without the slightest hesitation, Barash let out a loud roar, and led the cavalry towards the scorching frontal battlefield, stabbing obliquely towards the opponent's flank.

Long Hu looked instinctively, his hands and feet were cold, he pondered for a while, and unexpectedly left the troops and ran away.

This time it was Barash's turn to be dumbfounded. The hills here are undulating, and it is really difficult to chase one person running desperately, especially now that it is dusk.

"wrong!"

Balash and Longhu were childhood friends, and there was nothing old to say about each other's masters on the battlefield, but he knew each other's temperament.It's not the generation who abandons the soldiers under his command, greedy for life and afraid of death.

do not care!
Balash couldn't figure it out, and didn't think too much about it. He galloped his horse into the enemy group and shouted: "Long Hu is cowardly and flees. If you don't want to die, abandon your horse and beg for surrender."

He roared and waved the spear in his hand, killing three enemy soldiers on horseback.

The soldiers of the Kara Khanate were already exhausted, and they relied on one breath to support them. Now the main general is running away, and once he loses his momentum, he will be slaughtered like a lamb.

Barash couldn't understand the reason, and knew that he was not good at analyzing, so he said directly: "Bring the guard of the dragon!"

Not long after, more than [-] soldiers in bright armor were escorted nearby.

"Say!" Barash said, "Why did Dragon Guard run away!"

He pointed to one person and asked.

The other party didn't respond.

Barash raised his hand and stabbed him in the face, and the tip of the gun pierced through the back of his head.He retracted the spear, and the red and blood-white oars sprayed out.

"you say!"

The red and white gun pointed at another Kara Khanate soldier.

Barash didn't give him a chance to think about it at all, and stabbed him with a single shot.

The spear continued to point at the third person...

This time, before the spear was in place, the opponent had already prostrated himself and yelled: "General Long should go back to Suiye City. Ye Hu followed Dahan to Kashgar to witness the ceremony, and he is not in the city."

Barash was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "Quickly, quickly pass this news to Zheshuai."

Zhe Yuxun's main purpose of crossing the Congling Plateau this time was to lay down a stronghold for the follow-up army to avoid being attacked on the way to the plateau.

The terrain of the Congling Plateau is complicated, and there are not many places that are suitable as stronghold barriers. The military town of Suiye City is the best place.

Dayu soldiers also rushed to Suiye City.

However, because there were no siege equipment, Zhe Yuxun was not in a hurry to hurry, so as not to be attacked due to physical problems.

Knowing that Ye Hu of Suiye City was not in the city by accident, Zhe Yuxun's eyes sparkled, and he immediately said: "Erlang, hurry up, you immediately rush to Suiye City to prevent Ludwig or Long Hu from entering the city."
-
"drive!"

"drive!"

"drive!"

……

More than ten rode fifty horses galloping on the official road.

Ludwig's face was bloodshot, he swung his horsewhip vigorously, his chapped mouth was tightly pursed, and he greeted their eighteen generations of sweaty ancestors in his heart.

Suiye City has always been an important town in the Western Regions, the first line of defense on the Congling Plateau, and the gate of Kashgar of the Kara Khanate.

Such an important place, Ali Musa gave it to his most trusted brother Ludwig.

Canonized as the lord of the Eastern Qin Dynasty for the Dashifa, the Eastern King is so worthy of being recorded in the annals of history, leaving a rich and colorful event in history, how can he lose his good brother?
Hence, the embarrassing situation has arisen.

Ali Musa's reaction was also extremely quick after learning the news that the Dayu Army had conquered the two cities and marched straight into the Dengcongling Plateau.

It's just that the allocation of soldiers and horses is not a simple matter. The transmission of orders, the gathering of soldiers, and the transportation of food and grass all take time.

Ludwig could only rush forward with light clothes, defend Suiye City first, and wait for Ali Musa's follow-up troops.

Suddenly, he got off the horse and his legs became weak, and he knelt down on the ground, throwing Ludwig off the horse, galloping continuously, no matter how good the horse was, he was exhausted.

Ludwig groaned in pain, he didn't have time to calm down, he got up on the ground, quickly rode on a vacant horse, and continued to rush towards Suiye City.

"Ye Hu, there is a situation ahead!"

Ludwig's consciousness was a little fuzzy, and he only reacted when he heard the shouts from his followers behind him.

Dust was flying in the distance, and a cavalry was galloping towards him.

"Your Majesty, there are not many people, just a dozen or so!"

A follower who was good at identifying numbers by listening to horseshoes got up from the ground.

"Prepare for battle!"

Ludwig looked stern, took out his iron tire bow from his back, and stared into the distance.

In the dust all over the sky, it could be vaguely seen that a group of people were chasing one person, not being attacked as they thought.

"It's General Dragon Guard!"

Sharp-eyed relatives followed the exclamation.

Ludwig's heart sank. Long Hu was his most capable subordinate and one of his most trusted subordinates. The other was his son-in-law. Now that he was chasing after the thieves, wouldn't it mean that Suiye City was gone?
Long Hu, who was fleeing desperately, also saw Ludwig, and the desire to survive was ignited in his eyes, and he slammed the horse's buttocks to speed up.

"shoot!"

The bowstrings sounded.

Dozens of arrows shot at Laiqi.

The arrows were fast and accurate, and the chasing rangers turned their backs on their backs. Five people were hit by the arrows, and one of them died on the spot.

The rangers were in a mess and retreated in a hurry.

Ludwig didn't dare to chase, but just looked at the general who was paralyzed on his horse.

Only then did he discover that three arrows had been inserted into the back of the dragon guard, and the chain armor was simply worn inside the dragon guard, which offset a lot of damage and did not hurt his life.

He already had a follower who knew how to bandage his wound.

Long Hu didn't wait for Ludwig to ask, and said first: "Ye Hu, don't go to Suiye City, Dongfang has already arrived at Suiye City first, blocking the important place. We must let the Great Khan send an army to support, Only then can we fight."

Ludwig said with a livid face, "What's the situation? Is Broken Leaf City still here?"

Long Hu said: "Yes, Dayu has no siege equipment and will not fall in the short term."

Ludwig said angrily, "Then why are you here?"

Long Hu was a little aggrieved, and said in silence for a moment: "The East is coming too fast, and my subordinates judged that the Khan would not have time to gather troops for support, and the enemy army would arrive at Suiye City first. The reinforcements may become the first target of the East. So he suggested that General Li Leading troops in a detour to delay the time to advance to the east. Deputy Mier Ye ordered me to go out to fight. My subordinates are incompetent and defeated by the enemy. I want to rush back to Suiye City, but the thieves have already arrived. The subordinates can't enter the city, so they can only come Looking for Ye Hu. On the way, I met a ranger, and luckily met Ye Hu..."

Ludwig was speechless for a moment. Mier was his son-in-law, with average abilities, but after all, he was his own, and he was more trustworthy. He didn't want to ruin a big deal at this critical moment.

"Never mind!"

Ludwig sighed and said, "Go back to Kashgar."

For the dozen or so of them, there is no difference between going forward and dying.

Ludwig returned to Kashgar with the Dragon Guard.

Hearing all the reasons, Ali Musa vomited so much that he wanted to vomit blood. He didn't expect that before he could wear the hat of the Eastern Emperor, the real Dongfang had already come to his door.

"Khan, send troops quickly!"

Ludwig knew how important his son-in-law was, and it was okay to fight with the wind, but when it came time to fight hard and hard, it was not enough to watch.

Ali Musa didn't speak, just got up and walked back and forth twice, asking: "Brother, calm down, how long can Suiye City last?"

Ludwig said, "I don't know!"

Ali Musa said: "How is our strength compared to the East?"

Ludwig lowered his head and said, "Why not!"

Ali Musa gritted his teeth: "It's far worse. We can't go to die alone, go to Talas, ask for help from the West, and start a holy war."
