On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the defensive battle of the Tang army camp under the city of Shuozhou reached its most critical moment. Li Keyong led Kang Junli, Li Youjin, Xue Tieshan, Xue Zhiqin, Li Siyuan, Li Sizhao and other troops to attack the Tang army camp.

With 1 cavalry and [-] infantry, a total of [-] Shatuo soldiers stormed the camp all night. By dawn, they had broken through [-] company battalions in a row.The camp on the northern left was almost entirely lost.

There are 72 camps in the Tangying company, with 36 camps on the left and right, and [-] camps in the middle. Now the [-] camps on the left wing were smashed all the way by the Shatuo cavalry, and directly entered the central camp.

At this time, the entire Tang camp had been mobilized, and Zheng Congxuan had already led his own guards to kill them, and there was no reserve team for the whole army.

Zheng Congxuan and Cui Anqian were each holding a jade sword, and their robes were stained with blood. At this time, the two civil servants not only came to the front line of the former army, but also swung their swords to fight.Seeing the Shatuo people in black clothes and armor rushing forward one after another under the black banner, the two could only smile wryly at each other.No one would have imagined that just after they dispatched Yu Yu and the five cavalry, the damned Li Keyong would follow them.

At this point, it is already the end of the mountain. If he is not still looking forward to the help of Yu Yu and Li Jing, Zheng Congxun is already ready to commit suicide and die for the country.

Cui Anqian sighed: "Killing so many is enough. Even if we are defeated here, with Yu Gong and Li Zhenguo here, the people of Shatuo will surely lose in the end. The only regret is that I can't see this day in person."

Zheng Congxun was also full of bitterness. At this time, Li Jing could no longer be blamed. Li Jing sent [-] soldiers and horses to the camp one after another, and he sent Yu Jian and [-] cavalry to Mayi himself.He sent a letter of appeal to Li Jing and Yu Yu yesterday morning. Both Yu Jing and Li Jing were hundreds of miles away. It took at least a day for the reinforcements to arrive before the letter was delivered.Unless, unless Yu Guan decided to return to Shanyang as soon as he captured Mayi, otherwise, they were in time for support.

Li Zhong, the Jiedu envoy of the Yicheng Army, rode his horse and rushed to Zheng Congyu. He was shot by an arrow in the arm and half hung around his neck with a piece of cloth, his face was a little pale.

"Marshal, brothers, if you can't hold on anymore, why don't you retreat, and leave the green hills, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood."

Heyang Jiedu envoy Li Zhuo also rushed over, just in time to hear these words, and said angrily: "Can we retreat at this time? Now that we fight the enemy to the end, we can still earn a back, so retreat now. As soon as the soldiers and horses move, the whole army will be defeated. All the cavalry in our army went to Mayi with Yu Shuai, how could they run on two legs and outrun the four legs of the Shatuo people." Li Zhuo insisted on fighting to the death. He was sent from Chang'an not long ago. The Jiedushi, the soldiers and horses under him also belong to the soldiers and horses of the feudal towns that the imperial court can control.

Zheng Congxuan also made up his mind, "Fight the enemy to the death!"

"Commander, I can stay. You are the commander of the whole army, so you can't lose anything. Commander, Cui Shuai, and Li Shuai Qingqi go to Mayi to join Yu Shuai!!" Li Zhuo explained the purpose of his visit.If all the Jiedus and envoys of the four towns in the recruiting camp were all captured and killed by the Shatuo people at once, it would cause a great shock.

Zheng Congxuan didn't want to leave, and Cui Anqian didn't want to leave either. They abandoned the army and fled, which they couldn't do.But right now the four towns are in command, Li Zhong doesn't want to stay, and tried his best to persuade the two to leave.During the dispute, Wang Jian, one of the eight generals of Zhongwu, rushed over with a group of people covered in blood, which scared Cui Anqian and the others, thinking that these soldiers were about to mutiny.

"Commander, there is something wrong with the Shatuo people. It seems that reinforcements have arrived. Shall we take the opportunity to launch a counterattack?" Wang Jian said loudly. It is very tragic, Wang Jian's eighth capital, now there are less than 500 people left, and half of his brothers are gone.Wang Jian was a village ruffian when he was young. He killed cattle, sheep, pigs, stole donkeys, touched chickens, and sold illegal salt.Such a big loss this time completely inspired the bloody desire in his bones.

Hearing Wang Jian's words, the commanders-in-chief of Daying's Four Towns stopped arguing and looked up.

Indeed, under the radiance of the rising sun, the offensive of the rebel army obviously stagnated for a while, and then the offensive slowed down a lot.From time to time, the rebel cavalry in black can be seen running back and forth in front of the formation, waving flags, and sending some passwords.The officers in front of the Shatuo people were also shouting loudly, their tone seemed a little panicked.

To the northeast behind the rebels, smoke and dust rose all over the sky, and rumbling dull sounds were rapidly approaching.

Zheng Congxun, Cui Anqian, Li Zhong, and Li Zhuo looked at each other, with surprise and doubt in their eyes, "Could it be that Yu Jian's cavalry has arrived, but why did it arrive so soon!"

"There is an army in the northeast!" Wang Jian's old partner, Jin Hui, one of the eight generals of Zhongwu, rushed back excitedly with a knife in his hand to report.

"Rushing ahead is the red military flag! That's the flag of the Tang army."

"It's cavalry! All of them are cavalry, there are a lot of them, the details are unknown!"

"Commander, you can see the flags of the former army. It's Yu Shuai's flag, and Li Shuai's flag. The Zhenwu Army and the Zhen army have arrived, and the cavalry of the five tribes has also arrived!"

"The reinforcements have arrived, look at the flag, there are nearly [-] cavalry!"

One after another, the scouts ran back to report, and the tone of each scout who reported the news was extremely excited.

Wang Jian was so excited that his voice was choked up, the hero bleeds but not tears, but such a sudden change, the feeling of escaping after a catastrophe made Wang Jian, a rascal, couldn't help but burst into tears at this moment.

The four of Zheng Congxuan and Cui Anqian were also very excited. The reinforcements arrived, and finally arrived.

As if to confirm the report of the scouts, the cavalrymen who rushed over hurriedly let out a roar that shook the sky!

"Datang! Datang! Datang!"

This is the battle cry of the cavalry charging!

Zheng Congxuan was extremely surprised, his face flushed with excitement, and his whole body trembled slightly.The arrival of reinforcements not only saved the fate of the [-] Tang troops, but also sealed the victory of this rebellion.It also saved his life, as well as the glory he had accumulated in half his life, and avoided the ending of being defeated and dying when he was old.

Yu Jian came very quickly. He didn't wait to receive Zheng Congxuan's request for help before dispatching troops. In fact, as soon as he captured Mayi, he interrogated the captives and learned that Li Keyong led eight thousand fine cavalry to send troops almost at the same time as him, so he killed the galloping horse. He came from Yi, but Li Keyong went to Shuozhou City.

After some judgment, Yu Jian believed that Zheng Congxuan might not be able to stop Li Ke's Shatuo cavalry.So he reported the news to Zheng Congyu urgently, and at the same time, after a short rest, [-] cavalry of the Zhenwu Army were left to stand firm in Mayi, and he led [-] cavalry from five tribes to rush back to Shuozhou City.The cavalry of the five tribes was very strong. Although they marched continuously, they had no problem.

Yu Jian's march almost reached its limit. The night before, he marched rapidly from Shanyang City to Mayi overnight, and captured Mayi City in a surprise attack.After resting for a short time, they rushed back in the evening, another night of rapid marching, one day and two nights, traveling hundreds of miles back and forth, and captured a large city in the middle.

When they arrived at the battlefield, the Shatuo people were in a chaotic formation because they stormed the Tang army's company battalion all the way, fighting on foot and cavalry.Yu Jian didn't have the slightest intention to stop, "The whole army rushes to me!"

Bai Yicheng had some objections. Our army was exhausted from the continuous journey, and we were not superior in numbers. Should we first bypass the enemy and return to the Tang army camp to join the infantry in the camp? "

Yu Yu said bluntly: "Our army has just arrived. Although we are tired now, it is the time when morale is sharp. Now we should take advantage of this momentum and defeat the Shatuo people without giving them time to react. As for the number of our troops , Shatuo people don't know our number. What's more, I have other preparations."

After finishing speaking, Yu Guan called Zhang Chengye, the military supervisor of the township police station.Zhang Chengye was ordered by Li Jing to meet Yu Jian on the way, and he brought a thousand cavalry from the town.Although there were not many soldiers and horses, they brought a large number of town flags.One thousand cavalry, but under the banner of five thousand cavalry.

The [-] cavalry from the five tribes, plus the [-] cavalry from the town, unfurled the banner of [-] cavalry.What's more important is that Zhang Chengye's thousand cavalry not only brought the banner of five thousand cavalry, he also brought Li Jing's handsome banner with him.

Li Jing's Banner of the Suppression Army and Yu Yu's Banner of the Zhenwu Army were unfolded at the same time, followed by a flag like the sea.

Seeing that Li Keyong, who was almost able to break through the Tang Army's central camp, suddenly saw the banners of Yu Yu and Li Jing appearing, his expression changed.Troops were hastily dispatched to intercept, but in a hurry, all Shatuo soldiers filled the battlefield, and they only came in time to transfer the [-] reserve cavalry commanded by Li Siyuan and Li Sizhao.

Although the Tang army had a large number of reinforcements, Li Keyong was not afraid. He fought in the field or on horseback, and the people of Shatuo never feared.As long as he blocks the opponent's attack, he can calmly mobilize troops to deal with it.

The two young generals Li Siyuan and Li Sizhao led the elite two thousand Shatuo cavalry with a roar, and rushed towards the cavalry of the Tang army who were rushing down the mountain like a tiger without fear.

The cavalry of the Tang army once again roared into the sky: "Datang!" The horseshoes were like thunder, and the cavalry composed of five cavalry troops, Dangxiang Tuoba, Tuyuhun Helian, Tiele Qibi, Sogdian Sage, and Sogdian Anqing, rode like thunder. The sound of hooves, like a rushing tide, swept towards the Shatuo people.

The two armies quickly approached. In this great cavalry battle, the real Tang people were only 1000 men and horses from the town, and the rest were the attached Hu tribes, Shatuo, Dangxiang, Tuyuhun, Tiele, Anqing, and Sage.

For the glory bestowed by the Tang Dynasty, the six Hu cavalry launched a bloody battle. (To be continued.)
