Chapter 604: Tuyan's Strategies

The three armies of Tuyan moved forward slowly.*.*

However, in the afternoon, he received a report from the scout, saying that the Tuba army in front of him began to use food, as if they were preparing for the pre-war preparations. Tuyan believed that the number of Tang cavalry that Tuba could attack with 10,000 people would definitely not be large, and he could eat the enemy. Therefore, he dispersed the scouts in an all-round way and began to dispatch the army constantly, ready to attack at any time. However, what he did not expect was that at dusk, he was about to send troops to assist Tuyan when he saw the scout coming in a hurry.

"Report to the general, we found a Tang army fifty miles away on the right, with a population of about 50,000, which was a mixture of infantry and cavalry!" Scout Hui reported.

When Tu Yan heard that the Tang army was mixed with infantry and cavalry, he was stunned for a moment. Li Ke's elite soldiers had always had infantry soldiers. However, with Li Ke's personality, he would not send infantry to fight his cavalry. What kind of soldiers are the infantry and cavalry that appeared in front of him?

"Did you see clearly? Is it the real Tang army?" Tuyan continued to ask. For such a strange combination of infantry and cavalry, he was afraid that it would be the bait set by Li Ke, so he did not dare to rashly decide whether to attack. He wanted to annihilate this army in his heart. He thought it would be not difficult to annihilate this army with his more than 100,000 cavalry.

"I see clearly. They are under the banner of Tang Army!" the scout replied, "The name Li on the banner!"

"Li?" Tu Yan asked back, "Is it Li Ke personally led the troops? Otherwise, what generals surnamed Li are there around him?" Then, he denied, "It must not be Li Ke himself. When he goes on a trip, there will definitely be a black armored cavalry by his side. Li Ke is a person who cherishes his life!"

"Go back to the general, there are no black armored cavalry in this cavalry!" the scout said in a low voice.

"You can continue to explore again! Report back to me as soon as there is news!" Tuyan ordered.

"No" scout left.

"General, do you think this is a plan set by Li Ke?" asked a fierce general around Tuyan. His name was Ma Dandan, who was a brave general under Tuyan. He had the ability to command troops and was highly valued by Tuyan.

"If you are not afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of something!" Tuyan sighed, "The Tang army's battles in Shuofang seem to be a battle between strength, but if you analyze them carefully, you can't tell that it was carefully designed by Li Ke?"

Ma Dandan didn't continue to speak, he knew what his coach was worried about!

"You go and convey the matters of the generals to my big tent!" Tuyan said. After saying this, he walked towards his big tent, Ma Dandan took the order and left with great strides.

On the field, Li Xianzhong, Li Yan and Li Zong were riding horses in parallel.

Although Li Xianzhong belongs to the distant branch of the Li family, his seniority is the same as Li Yan and Li Zong. They affectionately called Li Xianzhong Brother Li, and Li Xianzhong did not refuse.

"Brother Li, do you think they are fighting with Tuyuhun now?" Li Yan asked.

"I don't know!" Li Xian sighed again. Before he came to Liangzhou, he was confident that the army of about 50,000 guards he commanded would definitely have a place in the Northwest Battle. But when he really arrived in Liangzhou and saw the Northern Prefecture Jingqi and Shuofang's Mo Daojian in the military camp, he suddenly realized how naive his original idea was. He was also a general who had been in the military for many years. Naturally, he could see the gap between the left and right guards and the Northern Prefecture Jingqi. Needless to say, the left and right guards were not as good as Li Ke's black guards, and the morale was even more difficult to compete with the Youzhou Iron Cavalry Turkic Jingqi. The only advantage was that the number of people was more than other armies, but the advantage of this number also reflected the disadvantage of the left and right guards, that is, the infantry could not form a powerful threat and lethality in cavalry warfare!

"I think it must be a fight! With the personalities of Xue Li, Yu Wen Guo and Zhe Yu, how could they miss such a good opportunity?" Li Zong said lightly, "I just don't know, what should we do next?"

Since leaving Liangzhou City, everyone has taken action separately. Except for Sun Erlang's Mo Dao, they have basically fought one or two small battles. However, before everyone started to attack, Tuyuhun made tactical adjustments to let Tuyan lead the army, and Tuyan made a passive defense iron barrel formation, which made everyone dare not lead a cavalry to penetrate deep into Tuyan's defense line alone to rage. Therefore, after communication between several people, this situation was achieved. The distance between the cavalry was moderately maintained between one hundred miles, which was beneficial to mutual rescue.

While chatting, the three of them heard the rapid sound of the scout's horse hooves.

The war horses neighed, and the Tang army scout quickly jumped off the horse and reported to Li Xianzhong, "General, a large group of Tuyuhun cavalry was found thirty miles ahead of us!"

"How many people are there?" Li Xian asked over.

"There are about 20,000!" the scout replied.

"Will the Tuyuhun army dare to attack my 50,000 army?" Li Yan said lightly. With the previous battles, the elite cavalry of the Northern Palace defeated the more with fewer ones, which inevitably made Li Yan look down on the Tuyuhun army.

"The Tuyuhun people are definitely not so stupid. They must have two other armies!" Li Zong analyzed, "The biggest possibility is to encircle us and annihilate us."

"To be honest, if we want to encircle our 50,000 army, at least 100,000 elite cavalry is needed, and the only person who can send out 100,000 elite cavalry is Tu Yan!" Li Xianzhong analyzed lightly.

"Hmph! Does this ordinary man Tuyan dare to go to fight?" Li Yan snorted coldly from his nose.

Although he restrained his violent temper and his hot personality changed a lot, this is compared to Li Ke, who was absolutely obedient in front of Li Ke like a kitten. But in front of Li Xianzhong and Li Zong, Li Jing showed his domineering aura and fierce spirit as the royal family King of the Western King.

However, Li Xianzhong and Li Zong were not disgusted with Li Yan's arrogance and arrogance.

Because both of them knew very well that Li Yan had the capital to be arrogant and arrogant. He was not a self-esteem, nor was he an arrogant person who bullied others with his power. He had outstanding force and dared to lead by example, and was also the general who killed the most enemies. With this, he was enough to be arrogant.

Li Xianzhong did not speak, but fell into deep thought.

At this time, two riders rushed towards him.

"Report—" the scout shouted from afar. As soon as he finished speaking, his people also came to Li Xianzhong.

"General, I found 20,000 Tuyuhun spirit cavalry on the left side of our army!" said the first scout.

"General, we found 20,000 Tuyuhun spirit cavalry on the right side of our army!" the second scout continued.

"Hmph——" Li Xianzhong sneered faintly, "Is this Tuyan's three-way attack?"

"I don't think so, maybe these three groups are all empty. The only one who really wants to attack us is a large army!" Li Zong said.

"How can I see it!" Li Xian asked again.

"Tuyan is a man who knows how to use troops with caution. How could he divide the elite army into three? Wouldn't this weaken his attack power?" Li Zong analyzed, "And he still guessed that our Northern Palace Jingqi will suddenly appear. If his Tuyuhun Jingqi is too scattered, it will definitely be annihilated by our Northern Palace Jingqi. Therefore, his Jingqiqi will definitely not be dispersed. The emergence of these three armies may be the remaining 60,000 cavalrymen when Tuba attacked Liangzhou City in his hand!"

"What is the purpose of Tuyan's arrangement like this?" Li Xianzhong asked lightly.

The three began to remain silent.

After a while, Li Yan said to himself, "Li Xian is so serious that he looks down on our 50,000 troops. His 60,000 are just a trick to doubt the soldiers. The real 100,000 army may be waiting for the Zheyu Ghost Face Cavant or the Xue Li Turkic Cavant."

"Zheyu's Ghost Face Rider and Xue Li's Turkic Spirit Rider, Tuyan is not easy to deal with either!" Li Zong said lightly.

"But if we are surrounded, the Ghost Face Rider or the Turkic Spirit Rider are unknown and want to break into the encirclement to rescue us? Wouldn't it be that the Tuyan 100,000 Spirit Rider caught and tidy up?" Li Yan continued.

After Li Yan said this, Li Zong and Li Xianzhong were silent!

Because Li Yan was right.

If we talk about mobile warfare, with Xue Rengui and Zheyu's shrewdness and the powerful savages in their hands, it would be difficult to escape the 100,000 savages of Tuyan. But if Tuyan was designed to convey false news to Zheyu, Xue Ligui thought that his side was besieged and needed their rescue, and Tuyan was posing 100,000 savages on the way to rescue, the consequences would be unimaginable!

"You can't do this--" Li Xianzhong said.

"Can it be too late?" Li Zong suddenly asked.

In an instant, cold sweat oozed out of his head. If Tu Yan had already made a perfect plan, it was to send three armies to his side. Then now Xue Li or Zhe Yu's cavalry have fought Tu Yan's elite cavalry!

"It must be too late. As long as we break through the Tuyuhun army and fight behind Tuyan!" Li Xianzhong said affirmatively.

"But we don't know, what is behind the three armies is Tuyan's 100,000 elite cavalry?" Li Yan asked.

"It depends on God's will! Keep moving forward without asking and fight for a bloody path!" Li Xian said in a serious tone.

"Try out a bloody path!" Li Yan and Li Zong echoed.

Immediately, Tuyan asked the scout to continue the investigation, while he ordered the army to advance forward, allowing Li Yan to command 20,000 elite cavalry as a vanguard army to fight the 20,000 Tuyuhun cavalry in front of him, and asked Li Zong to lead 5,000 cavalry to cut off the back to avoid attacks on his back. He led 20,000 infantry to defend against the attacks of the Tuyuhun cavalry on both sides.

Li Yan and Li Zong took the order and left!

Li Xianzhong sat upright on the war and began to think about this battle!
