On Phoenix Mountain, Lu Dongzan led the army back to his original camp. The 150,000 troops were stabilizing the camp. Only then did Lu Dongzan summon the generals to his chief account to discuss military information.

In fact, it is not about discussing military information, but about dealing with the issue after Sang Dong's death, that is, who will command the army!

Although Lu Dongzan was a marching general, Sangdong was the one who really commanded the army to fight, and the Tubo army was also composed of tribal cavalry. Among these tribal cavalry, Sangdong was the most qualified to speak as a member of the royal family, and his speech was also very important. Now, Sangdong was beheaded by Li Ke and the Tubo army had no such brave general. Lu Dongzan suddenly felt a headache.

However, everyone discussed for a long time, but in the end they didn’t discuss what result!

Finally, Lu Dongzan decided to report to the Logan Songtsen Gampo's death, and then asked Songtsen Gampo to send another Tubo general, Sang Xiong, to take over Sang Dong's position. Sang Xiong's elder brother Sang Dong is not only brave, but also very wise. Lu Dongzan believes that as long as he has Sang Xiong, the Tubo army will still be the Tubo army and will not be defeated by Li Ke's only tens of thousands of Tang troops.

In fact, when he led the army to retreat to Fenghuang Ridge, he realized that he might have been deceived by Li Ke. After careful consideration, he sent scouts to inquire from many sources, and then he realized that Li Ke had set up an empty city plan for him in Fenghuang Ridge. Therefore, when Lu Dongzan heard that it was this result, he was furious at the time. However, after all, he was an old minister who had been in power for many years. In addition to being furious, he also realized Li Ke's way of using troops, so he became careful in his heart.

Therefore, in addition to discussing with the generals about Sang Dong's death, he issued his military orders to the generals.

Lu Dongzan silenced the generals. When he slowly spoke out his combat plan, he received unanimous approval from all the generals of Tubo.

Everyone thinks that the war should be so big, rather than being timid.

Lu Dongzan's second step plan is very simple, that is, to send troops to attack Li Ke. He has now figured out Li Ke's strength. No matter what strategy Li Ke uses, he will only respond with one move, that is, to defeat Li Ke's army with one sentence with a pressure of 150,000 troops. He believes that even if Li Ke has 60,000 or 70,000 troops, even if his 150,000 troops are trapped in his encirclement, he will not be able to surround him and annihilate him.

The reason why the Tubo generals agreed so painfully was because they always fought like this. Moreover, they won every battle against foreign tribes. Therefore, Lu Dongzan's tactics were very consistent with what he thought, and they naturally agreed.

The reason why Lu Dongzan dared to formulate such a tactic was that after repeated thinking and discovering his shortcomings, that is, it was too cautious, which would lead to failure. With such an understanding, he decided to take a gamble against Li Ke. He was very clear about Li Ke's way of using troops. If he was entangled with Li Ke, cautious and timid, and with Li Ke's ingenious military tactics, he would not help even if he had another 150,000 troops.

In the Tang Army camp, Li Ke was in a bright light.

Li Ke was sitting upright in the center, Li Zong and Li Yan were sitting in his lower right hand position, Xu Jingzong and Yuwen Guo were sitting in his lower left hand position, and Wang Zhongchang stood beside him.

The atmosphere in the tent is very solemn!

Li Ke looked at everyone quietly, and then said, "According to Murongshun's information, Zheyu's ghost face rider is in danger!"

"Yes!" Xu Jingzong sighed, "I didn't expect Tuyuhun on the right to send commander Tuyan to command 100,000 troops!" Xu Jingzong also said worriedly.

It turned out that Wang Zhongchang interrogated Murong Shun.

At first, Murong Shun was very tough, but the black-clothed Eagle Guard had specially trained the tricks of interrogating prisoners by Du Yu. The moves that Du Yu gave to Wang Zhongchang were only used, and Murong Shun could not stand it. He fully explained the combat plan and commanding the three armies this time. The middle army was Lu Dongzan, commanding the army of 200,000, commanding the army of 150,000, and commanding the Tuyuhun cavalry. The left army was the Tubo general Nimo, commanding the 100,000 Tuyuhun cavalry. The right army was Tuyan, commanding the 100,000 Tuyuhun cavalry. This Tuyan is no one else, but the cousin of the current Tuyuhun Khan, the first general of Tuyuhun. It is because of him that he can traverse northwest for decades and compete with Tubo until today when his troops are weaker than Tubo.

Therefore, when Wang Zhongchang received this news from Murongshun, he immediately reported it to Li Ke.

Li Kecai summoned everyone to the Shuai Encyclopedia to discuss.

Everyone was silent when Xu Jingzong said something.

At present, Li Ke only has 60,000 troops in his hands, and he cannot distribute the troops to rescue Zheyu. The combat plan is to shift the central army to the left, lure Lu Dongzan's army, and then turn back to defeat Lu Dongzan's army. It is impossible to change the combat plan in this way! Therefore, everyone fell into silence!

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Ke said in a serious tone, "As long as we act in accordance with the previous combat plan! But the details need to be modified, that is, the siege of Lu Dongzan's middle lane may lack 20,000 elite Ghost Face Cavalry. You must have a clear idea!"

"Your Highness, what should I do if that ghost-faced rider?" Xu Jingzong asked.

"I believe that the Ghost Face Rider can escape from the siege of the 100,000 Tuyuhun army!" Li Ke remained silent after saying that.

Everyone can understand the meaning of Li Ke's words, so naturally they are no longer speaking and are silent!

In the hinterland of the northwest area of ​​Tuyuhun, Zheyu led 20,000 ghost-faced cavalry to break through, he could never get rid of the siege of the 100,000 Turkic cavalry.

Zheyu was a little annoyed when he strangled the war horse. This was the first time he encountered a cavalry that followed him like a dog-skin plaster like the cavalry in front of him. In his heart, Tuyuhun's cavalry was much weaker than Turkic cavalry. The Ghost Face Cavalry, who had also killed the Turkic cavalry, had lost his courage. But this time, even the Tuyuhun army was unable to deal with the pursuit of the Tuyuhun army? He had led the Ghost Face Cavalry for five days and three nights, and had reached the limit of the cavalry marching, but he still could not get rid of the cavalry behind him. Seeing that the time for the Northern King to deploy the mission was not far away, but he had not escaped from the encirclement and blocking of the Tuyuhun army. Zheyu's face looked ugly.

"Now, where is the enemy?" Zheyu asked.

"Thirty miles behind us, follow us slowly!" a scout from the Ghost Face Rider replied.

"How many people are there?" Zheyu asked.

"The number of people is about 30,000!" the scout replied.

"Thirty thousand?" Zheyu said in surprise. Isn't there a hundred thousand Tuyuhun army chasing him? Why are there only 30,000 left now? Then what about the remaining 70,000 people?

"Can you be sure it's 30,000?" Zheyu asked.

"General, I guarantee it with the oath of the Ghost Face Rider!" the scout replied.

"What about the remaining 70,000 people? No--" Zheyu was shocked and asked hurriedly, "Are enemies appearing in front of us and on both sides of the left and right?"

"Not found yet!" the scout replied.

"Go and investigate quickly! Expand the range to fifty miles!" Zheyu ordered.

"No" scout took the order to leave.

Zheyu asked the army to dismount and rest, and began to quietly think about the Tuyuhun army alone.

The Tuyuhun army suddenly decreased by 70,000, and the 30,000 troops following him just followed closely, without attacking or retreating. So what do they want to do? Are they waiting for the opportunity? Zheyu analyzed, what time are they waiting for? Suddenly, Zheyu's heart moved. If the 70,000 troops that were about to disappear were ambushed in front of him and left and right sides, wouldn't it form a siege with the 30,000 troops behind him? And isn't the pursuer behind him just waiting for this opportunity? Thinking of this, Zheyu fell into deep thought. He was thinking about how to solve the current crisis. It was obvious that the general who commanded the Tuyuhun cavalry was well aware of the way to use his number of troops. He wanted to use his number of advantages to force himself into the ambush circle and then annihilate himself in one fell swoop.

Just as Zheyu was pondering, the scout rushed to report to the Mahjong, saying that enemy cavalry were found in front and on both sides, with 50,000 cavalry in front, and 10,000 each on the left and right.

"That map!" Zheyu roared.

The enemy's deployment of troops with varying strength is definitely not aimless. The left and right sides only have 10,000 troops from each side. This is definitely not because the main general's deployment is inaccurate, but because of other reasons or a trap.

Zheyu carefully checked the map drawn by Li Ke and asked the Eagle Guard not long ago, and then he found that there was a river a hundred miles to the left. No wonder Tuyuhun only arranged 10,000 elite cavalry, and on the right was a valley, so he could not move forward.

Zheyu stared at the map quietly. If it weren't for the detailed drawing of this map and the clear drawing of these details, he would probably have been led astray according to the simple marching map in the past.

So what should I do now?

Break through to the side, break through the defense line of the Tuyuhun army, and enter the northern important area of ​​the Tang Dynasty in one day, but in this way, you will stay away from Lu Dongzan's central position. Break through the 50,000 Tuyuhun cavalry in front, and as long as you break through, you can enter the Tuyuhun mansion, which is more conducive to detouring behind Lu Dongzan's army, but there are 50,000 Tuyuhun spirit cavalry in front.

Suddenly, Zheyu fell into a dilemma.

Zheyu did not alarm the army, but just stood up and came to a hillside and began to quietly look at the south sky.

He thought of his first time participating in the Ghost Face Rider, his first battle against the Turkic cavalry, and his first commander Wang Zhen who died for the honor of the Ghost Face Rider. He thought of His Highness Beiwang as the deputy commander of the Ghost Face Rider, and his eyes that he had hope for him when His Highness Beiwang gave him the sword of Wang Zhen. He knew more clearly that the origin of Wang Zhen's sword was the training of the Northern King Youbei, and the entire army rewarded two of them, Ren Hu and Wang Zhen, the generals of the Ghost Face Rider.

Tsheyu is just quietly recalling the past stories!

Suddenly, he made a decision in his heart!

With a big strode and down the hillside, he began to come to the camp of the Ghost Face Rider.
