Chapter 194: The Great Food Eagle
Chapter 194: Big Eagle
The conflict has subsided. On the north side of the camp, hundreds of Tang troops were divided into two factions, glaring at them, one was the Yiwu army and the other was the Tianshan army. During the brief conflict, more than a dozen tents were washed down and cut, and blood was seen on the two of them. This conflict was a continuation of the Shatu people's camping problem. In Lifei Shouyu's camping plan, the two battalions were not together. One battalions were stationed with the Yiwu army, and the other battalions were stationed in the south. However, Han Zhi must ask Zhu Xie's loyal Shatu tribe to live with them. For this reason, he persuaded the Tianshan army next to him to give up a place. For this reason, Lifei Shouyu came to mediate and ordered the Tianshan army to give up half of the tent. The problem seemed to be solved, but just now, the Yiwu army came to receive the tent and insisted that they would give up all the tents to them. The two sides were dissatisfied with each other and started fighting.
Li Fei Shouyu restrained his inner dissatisfaction and questioned Han Zhi: "Governor Han, I have clearly compromised in the morning and asked the Tianshan Army to give up half of the camp for you. Even if you intend to let the Shatuo people station together, such a large place is enough. Why do you have to monopolize all camps and aggrieved the brothers of the Tianshan Army?"
Han Zhi snorted, "The customs of all races are different. Shatuo people never squeezed into a tent. Eight people are the limit they can bear. You are responsible for arranging the tent, so why can't you take out a little more tent? Also, the city is so large that you don't let us enter. How can you convince my brothers?"
"You can just say it if you don't accept it anymore, but you can't instigate the soldiers to provoke it. Seeing that the war is about to come, you are still flirting with it all your life, which is not good for the Tang army."
Han Zhi narrowed his eyes and said in a vagina: "General Li Fei, wearing a hat, you have to tell evidence. When will I encourage soldiers to cause trouble? What does it mean to say that to me?"
"The envoy is here!"
The soldiers next to him dodged a path, and Li Qing'an walked over quickly. He glanced at the tilted tent coldly and said, "All those who participated in the action will stand up?"
Han Zhi hurriedly said: "Encourt"
Li Qingan waved his hand and stopped him, "I'll talk about your affairs later. Now I'm going to ask the person who is taking action."
He looked back at the soldiers, "Why, don't you refuse to come out? You have to ask me to come and look for them one by one."
At this time, more than a dozen soldiers walked out slowly, Li Qing'an nodded and said, "Also, a real man dares to do things and be responsible, stand up for me."
More than thirty people stood up, and under their leadership, all those who had taken action stood up one after another, a total of 120 people.
“Is that much?”
Li Qingan asked three more times, and no one stood up again. He looked at the more than a hundred people and sneered: "Very good! Before the enemy attacks, they will fight internally. Since that's the case, I will let you fight enough and take it for me. Each person will beat fifty military sticks again!"
More than a hundred people were taken down in a mournful state. Soon, a "crackling!" sound of execution came, and people began to cry.
Li Qingan then turned around and asked Han Zhi: "Governor Han, what do you have to say?"
Han Zhi said calmly: "Our Yiwu army does not want to camp with the Tianshan army. We hope to camp in another camp. Please understand the Jiedushi."
Li Qingan stared at his face for a long time before he squeezed out a word from his teeth, "Accurate!"
A farce of fighting for barracks ended with the Yiwu army moving out of the camp and setting up a new camp. To everyone's surprise, the culprit of the farce caused, but the Shatuo people's Zhu Xie Jinzhong's tribe did not move away together. Although Han Zhi repeatedly persuaded Zhu Xie Jinzhong, Zhu Xie Jinzhong's attitude clearly stated that he was the commander-in-chief directly under Li Qing'an, and it was inappropriate to be in the same camp as the Yiwu army. Han Zhi had no choice but to lead Zhu Xie Shengyi tribe to move to another camp five miles away.
That night, Han Zhi's tent was brightly lit, and Han Zhi, deputy general Yang Zaicheng and Zhu Xie Shengyi were having a final discussion.
Han Zhi knocked on a plan on the table and said, "Li Qing'an will most likely send troops tomorrow or the next day, and our chances are only tonight."
As early as a month and a half ago, he led his army to Longwei City and discovered Li Qing'an's attempt to break Ye, a bold plan came to his mind, why can't he take the lead and seize this great contribution. For this reason, he sent scouts to Ashibulai City to investigate. Three scouts went to, but only one came back, one was captured and one was killed. However, Han Zhi also obtained a lot of first-hand information about Ashibulai City. The problem he faced was that the troops were insufficient. He only brought two thousand troops. In addition, he only brought two thousand Shatuo people, and only three thousand cavalry, but Ashibulai City reinforced the army of 10,000 Shiguo. For this reason, he thought of another Shatuo cavalry, but unfortunately he failed in the end. Zhu Xie Jinzhong refused to move out of the camp with him. Despite this, Han Zhi decided to send troops alone to attack Ashibulai City.
"Now, I want you to express your opinion, whether you want to win this unparalleled merit with me."
Han Zhi's eyes fell on Yang Zaicheng. Yang Zaicheng was a little hesitant. He felt that this attack was too risky, and he remembered Zhao Tingyu's death. Now Han Zhi was going to follow Zhao Tingyu's footsteps again. He wanted to remind Han Zhi, but he saw that Han Zhi had made up his mind and there was no point in persuading him.
It was his duty to obey his superiors' orders, and Yang Zaicheng said worriedly: "Governor, we only have 3,000 people, but Ashi didn't come to the city but had 10,000 troops in the Shi Kingdom. The strength comparison was too great. And I heard that there was also the Dashi Army, and their combat power was far stronger than that of the Shi Kingdom."
"I know this. The scouts I sent have found out. A month ago, the Great Food Army of Ashibu City had already gone to Talas. I heard that there was a civil war in their country and they should be ready to return to China. Now the 10,000 troops are from Shiguo, and they are vulnerable Sogdian troops. Although we have fewer troops, my confidence defeated them in one battle. I only ask you, would you like to fight me?"
Yang Zaicheng sighed in his heart. Actually, he didn't want to, but he couldn't speak, so he had to nodded silently. Han Zhi smiled and asked Zhu Xie Shengyi in Turkic words: "General Shengyi, you need to make a decision now."
Zhu Xie Shengyi has been resentful of the last time that the Geluo nobles were discovered in the valley. They suffered heavy losses last time, but in the end, the woman did not get any money. Although Li Qing later distributed some of the spoils to Shatuo, most of them were intercepted by Ye Hu, and they had little income. I heard that there was gold in that valley encounter, but they didn't even see the shadow of gold. Most of the people died, but in the end, Nan Jiyun picked up the advantage. This incident made him dissatisfied. When Han Zhi asked, Zhu Xie Shengyi immediately agreed: "I will do whatever the governor said!"
"Okay!" Han Zhi punched the table hard and said excitedly: "Then let the clown in the Shi Kingdom taste the power of our Yiwu Army."
At the beginning of the night, three thousand cavalry of Yiwu's army quietly left the barracks and drove west along the Yili River.
The main central army tent was still lit. Li Qing'an sat alone on the table and carefully studied the map of Broken Leaf. It was already the first time at night. The map had been closed. He was still not tired. He held a cup of hot tea and drank slowly. He got up from time to time and looked at the tent. His eyes were worried and full of contradictions that were difficult to make a choice. He seemed to be waiting for something.
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps came from outside the tent, "Bang!" The teacup was crushed by Li Qing'an.
"Report to the envoy, Governor Han led Yiwu's army to the west, and he was not sure where he was going."
"I understand." A trace of regret and depression appeared in Li Qing'an's eyes.
Ashibulai City is located in the north of Ningyuan Kingdom. It was originally the northern border city of Ningyuan Kingdom. It was a must-pass road to the Silk Road and has been very prosperous since ancient times.
During the Kaiyuan period, Dashi expanded eastward, and Ashibulai City was conquered by the famous general Qubodi, becoming the springboard for Dashi to prepare to attack Saiye.
But a revolutionary storm swept over the food, and the Shiite Muslims in Khorasan set off a protest against the Wumaiye Dynasty. Soon, the leadership was stolen by the Khorasan noble Abbas, becoming a civil war to replace the Wumaiye Dynasty.
The forces in the East retreated westward, but some troops remained in the city of Ashibulai and Talas.
The chief general of the Great Food Army of Ashiblai City was Judil, who was an experienced veteran. At this moment, he had surrendered to Abbas and was named Governor of Talas.
Judil's men had a total of 4,000 troops, two thousand troops each of Ashibulai City and Talas City, all of which were elites in the Khorasan area. A month and a half ago, the Dashi Army captured a scout from the Tang Dynasty. From him, he learned that the Tang Dynasty had deployed heavy troops to build five new cities in the north. Judil was shocked. He immediately realized that the Tang army was preparing to attack Ye. Judil decided to take the initiative first. He immediately transferred the Shiguo army to reinforce Ashibulai City.
During the process of dispatching troops, Judil used a trick. He first withdrew his troops back to Talas, but then changed to the Shiguo army, and returned to Ashibulai City with the Shiguo army. In fact, only 6,000 of the 10,000 Shiguo troops in Ashibulai City were the Shiguo army, while the other 4,000 were changed to be disguised by the Dashi Army.
They have also finished their preparations and are preparing to capture Shuye City before the Tang army.
On the morning of that day, a low sound of oxen horns sounded over Ashibulai City. The 10,000 Dashi and the Shiguo Alliance slowly left the city and marched towards the direction of Suyechuan. The straight distance from Ashibulai City to Suye is about 250 miles, but the road is not flat. Two huge mountains from north to south sandwich Saiyechuan in the middle, forming a Saiye Valley more than 100 miles wide. Because the Saiye River runs through the valley and the Rehai Lake, Saiyechuan is fertile, with lush forests and fertile grasslands, which is a shining pearl west of the ridge.
In the long team, Judir took the lead and walked in front of the team. Judir was about forty years old, with a square face, thick eyebrows, and serious. He was famous in the Great Food Army, known as the Khurashan Eagle. The one who walked with him was the commander of the Shiguo Army and the second prince Yuanen.
During his trip to Beiting a few months ago, Yuan'en was unable to get the Eye of Light, and Prince Hassan did not get the Eye of Light. The Eye of Light was taken to the temple of Samo Kin, Kangguo. Yuan'en has been depressed in the past few months. It was not until he was appointed as the commander of the Shiguo Expeditionary Force that his mood gradually became brighter.
"General Judil, why don't we send troops after the Tang army and Tuqishi are both injured? You must know that we have to face two enemies when we advance in such a hurry."
Judil glanced at him and said, "Your Highness Prince, your master did not tell you that the Tang army is good at defending the city. Once they take down the Thunder Ye City, we will have no chance. On the contrary, I will tell Dumozhi that we did not intend to occupy Thunder Ye in the past, and we will not have any future. We are here to help him resist the Tang army. We are his friend. Your Highness, do you understand?"
Yuan'en then suddenly realized, "General Judil is indeed far-sighted."
But he frowned and said, "But the rushing cavalry has been fighting in internal conflict for many years, I'm afraid they won't be united."
Judil showed a rare smile on his face, "Your Highness, there is a saying in my hometown of Khorasan, "The enemy of the enemy is a friend. When we go to Thunder Ye, we naturally have to deal with Erweitler Khan who occupied Thunder Ye City. Then Erweitler's enemy Dumozhi is our friend. Dashi does not necessarily have to occupy Thunder Ye. As long as Dumozhi becomes the servant of the Caliph, it is not impossible to let him stay in Thunder Ye."
Yuan En was stunned. If Dumozhi was kept in the Shaye Kingdom, what was there? Didn’t it be better to give Shaye Kingdom the Shaye Kingdom?
"General Judil"
Before he could finish his words, Judil waved his hand and said, "Seiye is from the Shi Kingdom sooner or later. This is just my temporary delaying strategy. Once Abbas ascended the throne, the Dashi will continue to expand eastward. At that time, we will have enough strength to fight against the Tang Dynasty. Not only will the Saiye return to the Shi Kingdom, but Bahan will also be incorporated into the Shi Kingdom as their punishment for being kind to the Tang Dynasty."
As soon as he finished speaking, a horse suddenly ran towards him from afar, and the horse cavalry shouted loudly: "General Judil!"
Judir held the horse, "What's the matter?"
"A Tang army is coming here, less than twenty miles away from us."
Judil was startled and asked anxiously: "How many of them are there?"
"About three thousand people!"
Judil couldn't help but sneer, and three thousand people wanted to deal with him ten thousand. He was too overestimated. He immediately ordered: "The whole army rectified the army and prepared to fight!"
After a moment, Han Zhi's three thousand Yiwu troops appeared on the horizon in a dark state. He also saw the Shi Kingdom's army from afar. He couldn't help but draw his sword and shouted excitedly: "Kill up and defeat the Shi Kingdom's army in one fell swoop!"
Zhu Xie Shengyi roared like thunder. He led a thousand Shatuo cavalry like rolling wolf packs, rushed forward and rushed towards the center of the enemy.
The center part was the four thousand elite Dashi Army. They were wearing leather armor, helmets, big food scimitars, and spears in their hands, and riding on the divine Arabian horse.
As the Shatuo army pounced on him, the Dashi Army tore off the robe of the Shiguo Army on its body, revealing its tight black armor, and the rolled-up black flag spread out. On the black flag was a golden Saladin eagle, which was Abbas's military emblem.
With a shout, countless spears flashed in the sun and rushed up against the Shatu people. The head coach Judil ordered the flag to be displayed, and the six thousand stone national army was like the wings of an eagle, and they went from left to right to the Tang army.
Han Zhi's heart seemed to sink into the abyss. He never expected that there were four thousand great food troops hidden in the Shi Kingdom's army. They were so brave and good at fighting, and they were definitely not the mob that he imagined to be defeated by a blow.
