Chapter 313 Bloody Battle at Shanhaiguan
Turk!

No matter which leader of the Central Plains, whether Yang Jian or Yang Guang in the past, or Li Yuan or Li Shimin in the future, they will all regard him as their greatest enemy.

If it refers not only to the Turkic nation, but to the entire grassland in general, then the grassland people will always be the greatest enemy of the people in the Central Plains before the appearance of firearms makes the people of the grasslands able to sing and dance well.

If the emperor of the Central Plains is bright and the country is prosperous, such as Qin Shihuang, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Wu of Wei, etc., can suppress and beat the people of the grassland when they are alive, but if the emperor is fatuous and the country is weak, as in the Jin Dynasty and Song Dynasty, it is really a grassland. People were crushing and beating, and they could hardly raise their heads.

In comparison, the effect of Goguryeo in Liaodong, which is so prosperous and almost dead, is actually just a disease of skin ringworm.

Even though Chu Tianxiu didn't deliberately set up a trap for the Turkic people at the beginning, but was pushed to this point by the situation after he killed Bi Xuan.However, after Chu Tianxiu gathered the soldiers of the Xue family brothers and Liu Heita, and found that his side could be called an elite soldier, he decided to give the Turkic people a ruthless, one-off general. It hurts, and only in this way can the trouble of this prairie enemy be reduced in one go.

You know, in history, Li Tang's royal family obviously has grassland blood, and they are Turkic people's own people. Yi, Liu Heita, Gao Kaidao and other princes made them continue to rebel, stirring up wars everywhere in the Central Plains and restlessness everywhere.

Not to mention, the most likely force in the Central Plains to unify the world is the Han Dynasty that Chu Tianxiu is about to establish.

Chu Tianxiu is not Li Yuan, Li Shimin, who has the blood of the prairie people, so that they can easily integrate into the system of the prairie people, and compete for the position of "Tian Khan" as a "Sinicized barbarian". Come to digest and absorb the big and small forces on the grassland, and use this method to turn against customers.

Chu Tianxiu could not learn this method.

He could fully imagine that if he let the Turkic people do nothing this time, then the Turkic people would try their best to contact Li Tang in Guanlong, and both of them would form an offensive and defensive alliance, so they would trouble Chu Tianxiu first.

From a certain point of view, this battle was actually what Chu Tianxiu hoped to see.

Li Jing is worthy of being the god of war in the present age. His arrangement in Shanhaiguan can almost be called art.

He only has 2 horses in his hands now, but in his hands, these 2 horses are more powerful than a hundred thousand troops.Over the past few days, many Turkic tribes have actually come to seek revenge, and they have led their crowds to attack Shanhaiguan.

However, under Li Jing's command, these Turkic tribes were harvested by Li Jing one after another like leeks in the field, so that after the statistics of the quartermaster, it was found that in the past month, Shanhaiguan had unexpectedly Nearly [-] people have died here.

Even according to what Li Jing said, most of these Turkic people came from some small and medium tribes, or simply came from horse bandits, and they were not really elite people, but he was able to do this with the few troops under his command, which is enough to prove that He's great.

If it was said that in the past, Li Jing would still worry that he would occupy an isolated enclave and would not be able to get support from the rear. Even if he could survive here for a while, he would not be able to recover from the situation of defeat.

Then after Chu Tianxiu killed Gao Kaidao and captured Yuyang County, theoretically speaking, the entire northern region, whether Liaodong, Hebei, or Shandong, had all become his territory, making Shanhaiguan Li Jing doesn't have to fight alone at all, but can get the support of the entire Central Plains.

In this way, Li Jing naturally had a solid foundation in his heart, completely let go of his hands and feet, and turned this Shanhaiguan into a sad place for the Turkic people.

But because of this, the pressure and anger of the Turkic people became more and more intense, so that Chu Tianxiu learned through the channel of Daming Zunjiao that this matter had completely angered the Turkic people Shibi Khan, the leader of the army, made him personally lead [-] Turkic cavalry to attack Shanhaiguan.

After Chu Tianxiu heard the news, he was also taken aback, and immediately sent a letter to Li Jing, asking him if he wanted to support him, and even wanted to personally lead the [-] troops he had just gathered to go to Shanhaiguan to support Li Jing, so as not to Let this handsome talent whom he had worked so hard to win over just now be turned away in Shanhaiguan.

The emperor is not in a hurry for the eunuch.

Chu Tianxiu was taken aback by this matter, but Li Jing himself took it lightly, with an attitude of ignoring the Turkic people.After he received Chu Tianxiu's letter, apart from asking Chu Tianxiu for a large amount of grain and weapons as support, he did not need any military support.

In his reply letter, he repeatedly explained to Chu Tianxiu that Chu Tianxiu should not have to worry about the battle on the front line. If he needed reinforcements, he would choose the opportunity to ask Chu Tianxiu to send troops. Divide troops to guard the counties and counties near Shanhaiguan, lest the Turks divide their troops and raid and cut off the grain roads of Shanhaiguan.

Since Li Jing is confident and capable, Chu Tianxiu will naturally not be troublesome, making him play the role of "Xiao He" in Yuyang County, constantly appeasing the big and small forces in Liaodong, Hebei, and Shandong, and then through Yang Guangqian The Grand Canal of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which was dug in the past few years, continuously transported grain, fodder and supplies from Luoyang, Jiangdu and other places through the waterway, and piled them up in Yuyang County continuously, turning it into a stable rear base.

Since then, the Turkic troops have been rushing to Shanhaiguan continuously, and Chu Tianxiu has also continuously mobilized forces from all over the Central Plains, gradually making this battle of revenge that the Turks should have launched to avenge Bi Xuan , It has developed into a trend that is about to turn into an all-out war.

In this matter, Chu Tianxiu was delighted to hear it, and had some thoughts of wanting to take advantage of this opportunity and complete his achievements in one battle.

However, the attitude of the Turkic people on this matter is quite divided.

Although those low-level Turkic people were very angry because of Bi Xuan's death, they really wanted to avenge Bi Xuan and would never stop dying.

But those high-level Turkic nobles thought a lot.

Although Bi Xuan is only a symbolic figure among the grassland people, he has no real power in his hands.

However, his existence itself is a Turkic pinnacle, and his death will naturally cause a change in the power of the Turkic high-level, and it is the kind of person who stabbed the top Turkic leader, Shibi Khan, in the chest. that type.

What's worse is that not only will there be some "complex" ideas among the Turkic people, but those tribes, big and small, who have to be temporarily female due to the force of the Turkic people, will have some ideas, especially Tuyuhun, Tiele, Huihe and Khitan, which were already somewhat dissatisfied with the Turkic people, even caused some commotion.

In this matter, Turkic even has to thank Chu Tianxiu, thank him for killing "Flying Eagle" Qu Ao, and slaughtered this martial arts master on the grassland who is only one line worse than Bi Xuan, otherwise, if this Tie Le Feiying is still alive, so no one can say for sure what he will do after knowing that Bi Xuan is dead.

……

Kill, kill, kill!

Chu Tianxiu had also experienced many wars in the past, but because he always liked to make decisions before acting, the wars he waged were almost always bullied by the big and the weak by the strong. Before the war started, the outcome of the war had already been determined.

But this Shanhaiguan battle was completely different. It was a real bloody battle.

Chu Tianxiu is not a quiet person, so naturally he would not stay in Yuyang County peacefully, watching Li Jing's success or failure, so although he didn't say anything, he went to the outside of Shanhaiguan in secret, quietly. Watch the battle quietly.

Bloody battle, real bloody battle.

Originally, Chu Tianxiu thought that grassland people like the Turkic people should not have any siege weapons, and would use the cruel method of ants to attack the city like the bandits in the Central Plains, using human lives to pile up victories.

But after Chu Tianxiu actually saw the Turkic offensive, he was a little surprised to find that the Turkic not only had siege equipment, but those siege equipment were also very sophisticated, not only ladders, well rails, but also a large number of Catapult.

Not only that, but the prairie people were born archers, which made their arrow rain covering the siege soldiers extremely sharp, so that although the soldiers under Li Jing had a city wall to rely on and a geographical advantage, they were still covered by the Turkic arrow rain. Now, their battle to defend the city was also extremely cruel.

In this matter, Chu Tianxiu had to swear a few words, scolding the Jin Dynasty and the Sima family, if the dynasty they established was not too stupid, it caused chaos, and let the Han people enter the darkest period in history. So much so that a large number of craftsmen and tools from the Central Plains flowed outside the Great Wall, how could the Turkic people have such a level.

During the Han Dynasty, there was a saying in the Central Plains that one Han was the Five Hu.

In this regard, it is not only because the Han people at that time were fierce and powerful, but also because the technical level of the Han Dynasty was an era higher than that of the grassland people, so that they could use strong steel bows and crossbows to bully those who only Bone arrows as weapons of the Huns.

But now because of the fucking dynasty of the Jin Dynasty, the Han people have lost their greatest advantage, and they can no longer form a crushing advantage over the grassland people.

Meat grinder!
Flesh Mill!
Asura killing field!
Today's Shanhaiguan, if such cruel words are used to describe it, it is not an exaggeration at all.

To put it bluntly, almost every moment, there are hundreds of corpses dumped under the Shanhaiguan Pass. Some of these corpses belong to Turkic people, some belong to Han people, and no matter what their status is, they will be on this cruel battlefield. Become a number on paper.

Although in terms of cruelty, Chu Tianxiu has really seen it, and personally set off a scene ten times more cruel than this. When he set off to support the Pegasus Ranch, he used some means to make those The four thieves who invaded the Pegasus Ranch caused civil strife, which caused them to have a camp roar.

At that time, the scene of tens of thousands of people killing each other, almost insane, was ten times crueler than today's battlefield, more like hell on earth.

However, that battle was fundamentally different from today's battle, and the shock to Chu Tianxiu was naturally different.

If speaking in terms of imagery, the previous battle was the evil ghosts in the Hungry Ghost Dao devouring each other, then today's battle is the Shuras in the Shura Dao fighting each other.

Under such a fight, no matter whether it is Li Jing or the Turkic people, there is almost no way to leave room. First reveal the abilities and talents of both the enemy and us.

Coincidentally, the day when Chu Tianxiu came to watch the battle was the seventh day when the main force of the Turks invaded Shanhaiguan. The day it opened.

Use offense as defense!

The gate that was unable to be smashed by the Turkic people repeatedly smashed it with a wooden pole, suddenly opened, and a cavalry came out of it.

Although when it comes to the ability to use cavalry, grassland talents are the ancestors, but no Turkic people would dare to underestimate the cavalry that came out of the city gate, and would instead regard it as a lifelong nightmare.

Because this cavalry is an armored cavalry.

This arm is actually the heavy cavalry as the saying goes, the most expensive, most important, and most glorious arm in ancient Chinese history.

Heavy cavalry is not uncommon. A little earlier in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, this kind of ace army had already appeared, known as the Iron Buddha.

If one wanted to cultivate such ace cavalry, not only the heavy cavalry, but also the cavalry had to be fully armored, and even the horses should be fully clothed.

So under such full armor, when every heavy cavalry goes out to battle, they look like a tall statue of the god of war, and when they charge forward, it seems like a steel city wall is pressing against them. Be invincible and unstoppable.

Such a team is naturally not something that idlers can afford, even if Chu Tianxiu spent a lot of money to purchase a large number of war horses from the Pegasus Ranch, and then commissioned the Dongming faction to forge weapons and armor painstakingly, and then He also selected the best among the original soldiers of the Sui army, selected the best group of soldiers, and raised these three thousand heavy cavalry just now, thinking that he was the trump card in his hand.

In fact, Chu Tianxiu raised such an elite army back then, in fact, his purpose was very simple. In fact, he wanted to raise a group of elite cavalry to deal with the ancient special forces cultivated by Li Shimin——Xuanjia cavalry, after all, they were under his command , Of course, there is also a group of warriors who are three points more elite than the Xuanjia Cavalry-whale hunters.

However, although the whale hunting soldiers are very brave, they are all from the navy. Although they can also fight on land, they can only be used as infantry at most. If they are asked to drive ducks to the shelves, use these two-legged whale hunters to fight Dealing with the six-legged Xuanjia cavalry is a bit too difficult.

It is precisely because of this that Chu Tianxiu took Jiangdu and formed such an army after recruiting a large number of imperial troops from the Sui Dynasty. When Chu Tianxiu sent Li Jing to attack Shandong, he knew that it would be a tough battle. So he sent this heavy cavalry under Li Jing's command and temporarily put it under his jurisdiction.

It is precisely because of this that although Chu Tianxiu formed this heavy cavalry, he has not seen the power of this heavy cavalry until today.
