Datang Lingnan King

Chapter 43

On April [-]th, the weather was fine, and the weather in April was getting warmer. The Turks attacked for a day, and dozens of people died and retreated. It was really a continuous attack for many days without any signs of being able to attack. All tribes were unwilling. Going to death is just a matter of coping. The spring in the grassland is late, and the day when barley is officially planted in mid-April. If the Turkic people don’t withdraw now, this winter will be very sad, and they may starve to death. Jieli Khan sees all Wuzhan decided to withdraw the army,,, let people pack their luggage secretly, and withdraw the army after dark. When the Turkic people heard the withdrawal, they sang and laughed for a while, as if they had won a battle.
At the end of the Geng Dynasty, the sky began to darken, and a large number of Tang troops were crossing the river in the lower reaches of the Wei River. Jiang Guogong Qu Tutong mobilized thousands of ships from Luoyang and directly built wooden boards on them, tied them with iron chains, and built 8 pontoon bridges in half an hour. The soldiers of the Tang government quickly passed across the river and led the following formations by their respective chiefs. Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji, Zhang Gongjin, Liu Hongji, and Chai Shao each led 10 troops as forwards, and Li Jing personally led 1 Lingnan soldiers and horses to retreat As a famous marshal, Li Jing can easily see that although Lingnan soldiers and horses are well-trained, there are no elite twelve guards after all, so the rear army, Xi Junmai, Feng Daizhi, Feng Daiwu, Yuchi Baolin and others are all at Li Jing's place, 5 The army landed 10 miles away from the Turkic army and lined up. When it was time to set off, the sky was already blurred, and they quietly approached the Turkic camp.

5 miles from the Turkic Camp, behind a small hillside, Qin Qiong and the others who had been repaired for a day were all ready to mount their horses, and only 7.5 of the 3 qualified men could charge forward. Li Ji put 1 horses ahead of the charge. In addition, 3.5 people were selected for the rear, and the other [-] people were led by Li Xiaogong and him to hunt down and surround them.
Li Ji looked up at the sky and said to Qin Qiong, "It's almost time."

"Let's go," Qin Qiong set off with 1 horsemen with a big wave of his hand, Feng Daiwen led Feng Daihuo and Xue Rengui led 2 soldiers, Duan Zhixuan led 5 cavalry behind, and trotted forward towards the Turkic camp. It didn’t take much effort for the cavalry to arrive at Lidi. The horses trotted for 5 kilometers just to warm up. Seeing that the Turkic camp was ahead, and the Turkic camp was still smoking, it should be that the meal had just been prepared.
"Kill!" Qin Qiong took the lead and swung forward,
"Kill," Xue Rengui led 5000 soldiers to form another arrow and rushed out.

"Kill" Feng Daihuo didn't get a fight a few times before, so excited he rushed over with 5000 people,
"Kill..." Feng Daiwen led Chen Xiong towards a gap, and originally Feng Daiwen wanted Chen Xiong to lead the people alone, but Chen Xiong disagreed desperately, saying that he was a personal guard and could not leave.

Kill, kill for a while, yelling for a while, all the Tang soldiers shouted loudly when they charged, because the Weihe Plain occupied by the Turkic soldiers was so wide, there was not much defense in other places except the Chinese army camp, at most It was just a little fence, and the horses were rejected. Forty thousand cavalry charged. It can be said that the hooves were like thunder. It’s bundled luggage, tents, etc. The smart ones pull out their waist knives and cut off the tied ropes, drop the luggage on the horseback and ride on the horse, and the stupid ones are still trying to untie the ropes.
Qin Qiong is highly skilled in martial arts and likes to rush into battle, but he doesn't pay much attention to self-defense. In history, he left bloody words, and directly led the cavalry to the gate and rushed to the Chinese army.
Xue Rengui rushed forward with a halberd and flew the rejecting horse and rushed in, followed by the cavalry. Feng Daihuo picked up the rejecting horse and threw it at the Turks with all his strength, as if he wanted to hold back the strength he hadn't used during this time They were all used, and they picked up a few refusal horses and smashed them to their heart's content before following the cavalry who went in to catch up. A coiling dragon stick grasped the tail of the stick with one hand and swung it left and right. no life left,
Feng Daiwen held the two-handed arc-shaped saber in his right hand, and the Xiuchun knife in his left hand. He chopped left and right, usually cutting off the enemy's weapons, and his arms and heads flew everywhere. Behind him were 300 iron guards formed by Lingnan veterans, all of whom were holding double crossbows. Rushing into the camp was a random shot, Feng Daiwen just hacked a few to death and was shot, Feng Daiwen had no choice but to laugh and shout "kill!" Chen Xiong was holding a huge shield and riding a guard on the side. Immediately hang up, draw out the saber and yell to kill,,,,,

The other side of the Turkic Camp

"Kill..." Yu Chigong had long held back his anger and rushed towards the [-] Turkic camped opposite him.

"Kill" Yuchi Gong just engaged in battle with the Turks, Duan Zhixuan keenly sensed that Yu Chigong was not easy to fight, and led 1 ready-made cavalry to rush from the front of the Turks to meet Yuchi Gong,
All of a sudden, the killing was inseparable, and the entire Weihe Plain was full of killings. After all, the Turks were still awake, and they all packed their bags, but Turkic Maduo, although he didn't have much organization, still attacked the Tang army fiercely. It is still very capable, and quickly sent well-trained Chinese troops to support in several directions. There are still 20 Turkic troops approaching, and there are 20 people, boundless, not to mention 20 people distributed on the plains. I know that there may not be [-] people in a small county. Although Qin Qiong, Feng Daiwen and others led people to rush in, they quickly fought with the Turkic people. It's just that many Turkic people are unorganized, and their bravery is not as good as that of Xue Rengui. Humanoid monster, so there are not many casualties, but if it continues like this, it's hard to say,

Kill, kill, kill, there was a louder shout of killing. It turned out that Li Jingchu had already arrived not far from Turkic while taking advantage of the sound of the battle here, commanding the whole army to attack. The footsteps of 10 people running should be said to be separated It can be heard from far away, Cheng Yaojin and others divided into several groups and rushed in first. When the band encountered resistance, Li Jing let the 5 troops in the rear press up from the side.

"The overall situation has been decided, release arrows to the sage," Li Jing said to his guards looking at the battle below from the side of a hill; soon the guards fired nine arrows to the sky, which was agreed with Li Shimin Signal, indicating that the overall situation has been decided, and the 6 people behind can press up to clean up the mess and expand the encirclement to prevent the Turks from fleeing and endangering the countryside.
"Report to the saint, there are nine shooting arrows coming from the front," a Xuanjia army reported loudly to Li Shimin,

"Haha, the overall situation has been decided. You will be in command of Jiang Guogong's other troops, and the Xuanjia army will follow me." Li Shimin is worthy of being the emperor on horseback. ;

"Ruo" Qu Tutong just saluted and Yingruo raised his head, Li Shimin had already rode away, so he had to smile wryly, and took his two sons to command the army,,,,,
