Chapter 51 Give the Turks a greeting first

Qin Qiong is thinking.

Qin Huaiyu and Sun Lixin met. The highest commander in Yangguan was not Li Fengcheng and Tang Meng, but Sun Lixin who came out of the prince's sixth order. Qin Huaiyu appeared in the new army camp as expected. Sun Lixin said nothing, but just handed a letter written by the King of Wei to Qin Huaiyu.

Li Tai means to let Qin Huaiyu stay in the Northern Court safely and not to worry about other battlefields.

After putting away the letter, Qin Huaiyu looked at Sun Lixin.

"You left Yangguan, aren't you worried about Tubo's sudden attack?"

Sun Lixin shook his head lightly.

"This is not something we should worry about. Chai Lingwu's new Yuezhou army has arrived in Longyou and replaced Duke Lu back to Chang'an. I don't care about these things. I will just abide by the orders issued by His Highness the King of Wei. Tonight, will you attack the Turkic military camp? Or will you do the main attack or our new army."

"Your new army has a head-on confrontation, and leave the matter of attacking the rear to the Northern Ting Army, don't hold back."

Qin Huaiyu's face looked a little ugly. Now he is the only one who has not made an advantage. Although his father doesn't say anything, he can see disappointment in his eyes. Yuan Gaisuwen and Li Tai in Longyou are confronting each other, and no one dares to attack rashly. Anton Wei Jiu defeated Yuan Gaisuwen, and now he is waiting for him.

As night fell, 20,000 cavalrymen in Yangguan came out of the camp, and there were no infantry or bows and arrows in Yangguan. They only had cavalry here. The first person Sun Lixin wanted was Su Tu. Later, because the price was too high, he had to give up. Yangguan was the most military-funded team, and every penny had to be broken, but Sun Lixin was not vague at all in the soldiers' equipment and supplies.

The biggest partner of the Yangzhou New Army was Cui Yi. From war horses to armor, all of them were heavy armor and ponies. This was the biggest reason for abandoning infantry. Infantry was unable to withstand the weight of armor and long-distance combat.

The silver armor was particularly conspicuous at night. Twenty thousand soldiers galloped on the vast plains, and the horse's hooves were like earthquakes. The Western Turkic commander Ashina Helu knew that it was the army that suddenly emerged to attack. He was waiting for this day. In the past, every attack would have suffered heavy casualties due to the opponent's arrows.

"Welcome to the enemy!"

The soldiers of the Western Turks were full of blood. They were not afraid of life and death when facing the battlefield. The most unbearable thing was humiliation. They had long been unable to stand the high-ranking appearance of the Tang Dynasty. The military camp was no better than a city, and there were no towering walls. When facing an enemy raid, all they could do was go out of the city to respond to the enemy. The only advantage of the defense side was that they were prepared and had sufficient physical strength.

Looking at the enemy troops galloping in the darkness, the Western Turkic soldiers had already made a plan and were defeated by this cavalry one after another. They were eager to fight against each other.

The Turks were rich in cavalry, and the opponent they wanted was also cavalry. It was proud to defeat the other side in the same field. The Turkish soldiers and the people were definitely the first-class Han, and the ones that were responsible for their managers.

Ashinahelu was waiting for the enemy's arrows to attack, but now the two sides were only one mile away. The Tang cavalry still had no intention of attacking with arrows. Instead, everyone was holding a silver spear in their hands.

A loud shout came from afar.

"Sun Lixin, the Yinyue Cavalry of Yangguan, Yangguan, Tang Dynasty, invite General Ashinahelu to go out of the city to fight."

The Tang army's unanimous shouts were like a shot of stimulant. At this time, the Tang army had already shown that they were not attacking with arrows and chose to fight with a dignified horseback. The Western Turkic soldiers looked up at their marshals, whether to fight or not!

The Yinyue Cavalry of Yangguan had heard of, and Sun Lixin and the others had also heard of, and they were the highest generals of Yangguan. At this moment, they called for a name to fight. How could the men on the Western Turkic grassland retreat?

The Western Turkic cavalry were wearing armor and fighting horses under their crotch. The Western Regions lived with horses since childhood. For them, riding was like the people of the Tang Dynasty farming. The Turkic cavalry kept changing their postures on the back of the horse with scimitars, as if they were walking on flat ground, while the charge of the Tang army was one by one.

The Western Turks attacked the cavalry of the Tang army with no military formation. The collision between speed and strength began. They slashed and charged and then raked a spark on the Tang army soldiers in the front, without any injury. The spear in the Tang army had already lifted up and penetrated the opponent's chest.

When the two sides fought head-on, the Turks found that their swords could not hurt the opponent at all. The Western Turks, who were winning at the top of speed, began to change their attack methods. They began to fight attrition, and the target of the sword in their hands also fell on the war horse under the opponent's crotch.

Although I feel sorry, I am reluctant to leave.

But this is the battlefield.

Slowly, the Western Turkic cavalry began to attack the Yangguan cavalry, preventing the Yangguan cavalry from entering the center of the circle. The Yangguan cavalry could break through. The Western Turkic cavalry became hyenas on the grassland and chose to sneak attack the Tang army's butt. If it fails once, it will retreat quickly.

Li Fengcheng gritted his teeth and asked if he wanted to shoot the arrow. This kind of combat method was simply too cowardly, and Sun Lixin shook his head and refused.

"Show weakness! Buy time for Qin Huaiyu, so that the enemy will feel that we are powerless to fight. The enemy will try every means to wipe out us, pass on orders, and tell all the soldiers to stay in place, alternate with each other, and do not waste too much physical strength. As long as the enemy's backyard fires, we will evacuate quickly."

Li Fengcheng asked in a slight slight question.

"No attack?"

Sun Lixin shook his head.

"Our mission is to assist Qin Huaiyu in defending the border. It is Guo Xiaoge's business for attacking the Western Turks, and it has nothing to do with us. Even if the orders are not the Marquis and His Highness of the King of Wu, we don't need to pay attention to it."

Li Fengcheng was a little interested and thought he could rush into the Western Turks directly to make a big fuss. He heard that there was a legendary BMW there, but he could travel thousands of miles a day.

The Western Turks and Yangguan soldiers began to consume, and no one could do anything about each other. Time was passing by little, and the two sides had no choice but to collide more than a dozen times. The Western Turks retreated and the Tang army advanced, but they defended and refused to attack.

Slowly, the Western Turks felt something was wrong. When Asina Helu felt something strange, it was too late. The rear of the military camp suddenly became chaotic, and then the sky was filled with fire to illuminate the dark night. When Asina Helu hesitated to rescue or leave the Yangguan cavalry, the cavalry suddenly began to exert force and rushed straight to the Turkic military camp.

It was too late to send people to ask the rear. The Western Regions cavalry quickly returned to the battalion to defend, and the soldiers of the camp also began to come to support. After Ashinahelu went straight to the camp, he was worried that someone from the rear would come to attack the military camp.

But when he arrived at the rear, it was too late and there was no trace of the enemy. At this time, he shouted.

"Mom Xipi!"
