Chapter 138: Invade Dingxiang and kill the inner city
The Xuanjia Army led by Li Zaigu chased him and suddenly stopped just a arrow away from the gate of Dingxiang City. If you move forward, you may be shot by the arrows of the archers on the city tower.
Li Zaigu was not afraid of the arrows shot from the city tower of Dingxiang City, but was waiting for something.
Sudden!
A team of people out of thin air in front of the city gate!
A team of masked men wearing black scarves, wearing black cold clothes, wearing long black cloaks, riding a black tall horse, holding a scimitar!
That’s right, they are the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun summoned by Li Zaigu!
Seeing this, the gatekeepers hurriedly wanted to close the door.
But!
They were one step slower.
Perhaps it is not that they are slow, but that Yanyun Eighteen Cavalry is too fast.
As fast as a whirlwind, he arrived at the city gate in the blink of an eye.
"ah……"
With a few screams, the soldier who was about to close the city gate was chopped down.
Seeing this, the other defenders surrounded him and tried to block the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun at the door.
Since Yanyun's Eighteen Cavalry had drawn their swords, how could dozens of Turkic defenders stop it?
The eighteen cavalry of Yanyun are as fast as the wind and as strong as fire. Wherever they go, the heads fall to the ground!
"rush!"
At this moment, Li Zaigu shouted loudly and rode his horse towards the city gate first.
The five hundred Xuanjia Army behind him rushed to Dingxiang City like a dark cloud.
Asunard couldn't care about the life and death of the city gate defenders. Surrounded by more than a dozen cavalrymen, he rode his horse towards the inner city.
In the blink of an eye, all the guards in Dingxiang City fell to the ground and could not get up. Most of the guards did not understand why they died like this until the moment they died.
Li Zaigu rode a white dragon horse into the city gate, glanced at the corpse that fell around the city gate, and said loudly to the Tang army who had just arrived: "Zhang Zheng led the fifty soldiers to stay and guard the city gate, and the rest of the soldiers followed the general into the inner city and captured Jie Li alive!"
"As for your order!" the soldiers responded.
Although these Tang soldiers were surprised by the eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun who suddenly appeared, they had no time to think about it at this time, and they dared not ask Li Zaigu.
The Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun were entangled by Turkic soldiers who had just arrived from all directions and could not escape for a while, which allowed Asunatur to successfully escape.
The Turkic soldiers who were pestering Yanyun's Eighteen Cavalry were surrounded by the Tang army that arrived and were instantly wiped out.
Li Zaigu used Yan Yun's eighteen cavalry to open the way, and the dragon gall spear was in his hand to kill the inner city.
...
Jie Li Khan lies on a thick blanket with two beauties on his left and right, sleeping soundly.
There is a layer of wood under the blanket to reduce the coldness on the ground.
"Dongdongdongdong..."
Sudden!
The drums were loudly sounded, awakening Jie Li Khan.
He opened his eyes and stood up suddenly. Just as he was about to ask what happened, someone outside the door reported: "Report to the Khan, the Tang army attacked the city!"
"What?" Jie Li Khan was shocked, "How could the Tang army attack the city in Mayi? Lies about military information are the crime of beheading!"
"The Khan is indeed the Tang army, and he has reached the outer city." The person outside the gate said anxiously.
Jie Li Khan was shocked and tidied up his clothes while picking up the long-handled sword and running out.
As soon as he went out, he saw Du Gouwenze running over hurriedly.
"Khan, leave here quickly. The Tang army has entered the outer city, and I'm afraid the inner city will not be able to defend it." Du Gouwenze raised his voice and shouted.
"Is it really the Tang army?" Jie Li Khan said incredible.
"It's true!" Du Gouwenze responded.
"The Tang army is still in Mayi, why did they suddenly come to Dingxiang City?"
"I will not know what the specific reason is."
"Is Eyangling lost?"
"I'm afraid it's lost, but..."
"But what?"
"The Tang army attacked the outer city only about 500 people."
"A mere five hundred Tang troops attacked Dingxiang City? It seems that my great Khan underestimated Li Jing."
"According to my general's opinion, there is a large army of Li Tang outside Dingxiang City."
"It makes sense!" Jie Li Khan frowned, with a calm face, and said coldly, "If Li Jing dares to go deeper alone, there must be a main force afterwards."
"Khan, please let me escort you away before the Tang army has even entered the inner city." Du Gouwenze advised.
"I am going to fight to the death with the Tang army!" Jie Li Khan said viciously with wide eyes.
"Shank you, there is a saying among the Han people that you can keep the green mountains and there is no need to worry about burning firewood. If you don't leave, it will be too late!" Du Gouwenze advised again.
"Great Khan, please leave quickly. I wish to cut off the rear for you!" Jie Li Khan's servant interrupted from the side and advised.
"Khan, please leave quickly, the defenders in the inner city may not be able to resist it for long."
At this time, the civil officials and military generals who rushed to persuade them together.
"Okay, I will leave Dingxiang for the time being. I will regroup and regain the Dingxiang City in a short time!" Jie Li Khan gritted his teeth and said hatefully.
After a slight pause, Jie Li Khan remembered something and then said, "Where is the military advisor? Let the military advisor follow the Khan to evacuate Dingxiang City."
"I am here." Zhao Deyan's voice came.
Everyone looked in the sound and saw Zhao Deyan hurriedly running towards this side with a box in his arms.
He didn't even bother to comb his hair, and he was in a mess.
Jie Li Khan was displeased when he saw that Zhao Deyan was about to run away and was still holding a box.
Seeing this, the others showed dissatisfaction and stared at Zhao Deyan with contempt.
Everyone guessed that the box contained gold, silver and jewelry, otherwise he would not have run away and still hugged him.
"What is the military advisor's box?" Jie Li Khan asked in a dissatisfied tone.
Zhao Deyan's eyes rolled and he coughed gently, "Reported to the Khan, the box contains some good strategies for governing the country written for Khan. In the future, Khan will need to use it and must not be thrown away."
Zhao Deyan was worried that Jie Li Khan and others would not believe it, so he opened the box lid while saying it.
Jie Li Khan looked down and saw that there were some books in the box.
"The military advisor is indeed not disappointed by the fact that he did not disappoint Ben Khan. He brought the box and walked with Ben Khan!" Jie Li Khan said in a calm tone.
"As for your order!" Zhao Deyan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly responded.
What Jie Li Khan and others didn't know was that the box in Zhao Deyan's hand had a secret lattice, which was actually divided into two layers. On the top there were several booklets, and on the bottom were the gold, silver and treasures that Zhao Deyan had plundered.
Du Gouwenze led two thousand Tianlang Guards to escort Jie Li Khan, Zhao Deyan and others to escape from Dingxiang City.
When they were about to reach the north gate of Dingxiang City, they suddenly heard the rapid sound of horse hooves coming from behind.
Everyone's faces changed, thinking that the Tang army was here.
But when he looked closely, the person who came was Asuna Dur and the soldiers who fled back.
"Khan stay!" Asunadul shouted.
Jie Li Khan stopped and turned to glance at Ashinadur who was chasing him. His eyes were both confused and dissatisfied.
"The Khan is going to evacuate Dingxiang City?" Asinadul asked panting after chasing him.
Jie Li Khan said lightly.
"The Khan cannot evacuate Dingxiang City. The Khan should lead all the Tianlang people in Dingxiang City to resist the Tang army." Asunadur said in a heavy tone.
