Datang: Only by resisting the will can one become stronger

This is also Qi Bi He Li's own martial arts are good and his foundation is good, otherwise if he were so big with Li Qiutuo as an ordinary person, I am afraid that he would have died many times.

Seeing that Qi Qi He Li was knocked away and protected by his clansmen in time, Li Qiu did not pursue further, but turned around and left.

As soon as Li Qiu was about to run, those Turkic soldiers shouted to catch up and kill Li Qiu to avenge the leader.

However, he was directly stopped and stopped by Qi Qi He Li who was lying on the ground.

Just this seemingly harmless Tang general, the power and martial arts contained in his body far exceed Qi Bi's imagination.

As far as his two thousand clansmen catch up, even if they can kill the two hundred Tang troops, they will definitely not be able to trap this outrageous Tang army general.

At the same time, it is unknown how many of his 2,000 clansmen will be left in the end.

The Tatiele tribe has a small population, few livestock, and few pastures.

All the family backgrounds together are estimated to be only 2,000 soldiers.

If all of them are lost here, how will they protect the women, children

, and livestock of the clan? When the time comes, the clan will have to be wiped out!

Therefore, their group of people can only watch Li Qiu urge the horses and leave.

After he turned back and saw Tuli when he went back, he also told him what he had just done, and at the same time asked Tuli to forgive him.

Hearing this, Tu Li snorted coldly, "Your martial arts are top-notch, even in the entire grassland.

"Could it be that this Tang army is so powerful that any small scout can easily injure you?"

"This is the last time.

"If, in the subsequent large-scale battle with the Tang Army, if you Tiele clan no longer cherish the feathers and refuse to exert your strength?"

"When the time comes, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

After speaking, Tuli turned around and left directly, although he was dissatisfied, but he did not punish him too much.

This time, the Turkic army went south, and it was composed of more than a dozen tribes in the steppe, and there were many subtle phenomena similar to the Tiele tribe.

And even Tuli, between him and Jieli, is the same.

Everyone cherishes their feathers, and they all hope that other tribes will have more casualties and their own tribes will keep more.

also avoided the death of his own tribe, not only did he not eat the meat of the Tang Dynasty, but he became the prey of other tribes of the grassland.

......

Night fell, Chang'an City, Li Shimin's Chengqing Palace.

Many ministers are still here in front of the sand table and map, discussing the military situation.

“...... At present, the Turkic army has formed a three-sided encirclement against us.

"According to the latest military information reported by Tanma, Jieli's main force is advancing eastward along Weishui.

"Tuli and Qibi He Li and other departments are now stationed in Jingyang and Gaoling.

"There are more than 200,000 people in the three routes, and our army only has a few tens of thousands.

"Li Jing, Chai Shao, and Cheng Yanjin's reinforcements are still on the way.

"Among them, the most likely to arrive at Cheng Biting Jinbu is still dominated by infantry troops, and I am afraid that they will only arrive in Chang'an the day after tomorrow..."

Listening to Fang Xuanling's analysis of the current situation, Du Ruhui, who was sick, shook his head and sighed, "Judging from Jieli's style of this surprise attack, a general attack on Chang'an City will be launched tomorrow at the latest."

"I'm afraid that if we can't wait for a few reinforcements to come, this Chang'an City will fall into the hands of the enemy."

At this time, several ministers on the side frowned and looked at Du Ruhui.

"I said Lord Du, what you said is a bit alarmist, right?"

"This Jieli army is mainly cavalry, and it is true that it is good at field warfare, but when attacking a strong city, cavalry may not be useful.

"This Jieli is a barbarian, offending me for no reason, and losing reason first.

"And now they are alone, in a foreign place, and they will be terrified. "

The division of the king of our army, the same enemy, is it possible that our army of 30,000 or 40,000 horses is holding Chang'an, and it can't be held for two days?"

Du Ruhui is sick, and he is really too lazy to talk nonsense with civilian officials like them who are full of stomachs but do not understand military politics at all.

But the eldest grandson Wuji on the side really couldn't stand it.

"I said, Lord Wang, the more than 200,000 Turkic troops have already arrived in the city, when is the time, you are still singing high-pitched here, saying these sages and sages?"

"We, the army of kings, have to rely on real swords and real guns to fight, not spitting stars, isn't it?!"

Seeing that the ministers were about to quarrel again, Li Shimin frowned tightly and waved his hand in annoyance.

I also regret it in my heart, I shouldn't have called so many irrelevant Wenchen together.

"Alright, don't argue.

"Keming, continue what you just said.

Du Ruhui then continued: "Before I came here today, I went to find someone.

"In recent years, although our army has not been at war with the Turks.

"But at the border, there are still places that have been fighting with the Turks for many years, and there are still people who are familiar with and good at fighting with the Jieli army.

"Everyone in the Central Plains knows that Jieli's cavalry is fierce.

"But they didn't know that just as powerful as their cavalry were their strong bows and crossbows.

"Our infantry, being able to shoot a hundred paces is excellent.

"The Hu people have practiced Xi cavalry since childhood, and their cavalry can shoot one hundred and fifty paces, which is also normal.

"And very precisely.

"Your Majesty, you think, more than 30,000 people of our army are standing on the low and dilapidated Chang'an city wall, and they can't withstand a few cavalry shots at all.

"This is also the real reason why Jingyang and Gaoling failed to survive an hour. At

the same time, the minister also asked the soldier who sent the last letter of military information from Youzhou.

"When I was defending the city in Youzhou City, I also faced such a problem.

"It's just that the king of Beiping County and the Luo family army on the other side of Youzhou have been at war with the Turks for a while. "

The experience of defending the city is extremely rich, so this can defend Youzhou City for a day and a night.

"But right now, in our army, there is an urgent need for such a person.

"Therefore, I strongly recommend to Your Majesty that a person be my military squire, so that he, who is familiar with the battle with the Jieli army, can be responsible for the specific defense arrangements in Chang'an City.

"I just don't know if Your Majesty is willing to use it.

Li Shimin frowned

, "When is this now?" "As long as he really has the ability, can I still do without him?"

"Say, who is this person?!"

Du Ruhui slowly spit out a few words, "Zhongshan County Magistrate Shi, Fan Xing."

As soon as they heard this name, all the ministers present were shocked.

As the leader of the Shi clan, Prime Minister Feng Deyi was even more directly listed, expressing his dissatisfaction with emotion.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?"

"This Fan Xing is from a humble background and a stubborn stone.

"If the imperial court puts this kind of stubborn stone in the high position of the soldier in the army, is it not afraid that the world's corporal clan will be cold, so that all the jade of Jingshan in the world will abandon my lord?"

"There is a way that is the best grade without a cold door, and the rules of the door are handed down from the hands of the ancestors.

"It's been going on for hundreds of years.

"There are so many talents from wealthy families who don't need it, but they have to reuse Fan Xing, who has been a horse slave, the minister really can't figure it out!"

"Your Majesty, you must think twice about this matter!"
