Chapter 999
The western source of Huangshui River, Yifu Valley.
The Tuyuhun people were covered with snow and snow, and the Tuyuhun people were caught off guard when they were attacked by the Tang cavalry. This was caused by themselves. Murong Cheng incited the Tuyuhun tribes to rebel against the Tang Dynasty again, and at first they did catch the Tang Dynasty off guard.
Killing the Great Khan Murong Shun, seizing the Khan's Fuqi City, and inciting all tribes to rebel against the Tang Dynasty. Everything was very quick and effective, and it was also the time when the national mourning was selected for the death of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

The Tang people were unintentionally sending troops at this time, so they only sent Hou Junji to ask for punishment, but only asked for punishment verbally and did not dispatch troops.
While Murong Cheng pretended to be frightened, he sent someone to receive Hou Junji, but secretly chased his nephew's family. The Tang army missed the best opportunity to send troops because of the national demise, and Murong Shun had an excellent opportunity.
But he wasted these precious months. He claimed to attack the Tang Dynasty in all directions, but in fact he gathered all his troops and went north quietly, ambushed in the mountains at the source of the Huangshui River, scattering more than 200,000 people in various valleys between mountains more than a hundred miles wide.
This was not wrong at first. After all, under normal circumstances, although the Tang people did not want to move troops at the beginning, they would not really tolerate their rebellion, so they would definitely send troops.
If the Tang people sent troops, they would inevitably go out along Qinghai Road to attack. The two routes in the north and south were most likely to go out together, and even Hexi and Anxi roads also had one army. If the soldiers from Jiannan were added, they might go out to five routes.
After all, Tuyuhun's strength is not as good as before, so Murong Cheng and his prime minister, King Xuan, had a countermeasure that no matter how many Tang people came, I would not divide my troops, so I would go all the way.
They claimed to the outside world that the four routes of attacking the Tang Dynasty were actually gathered all the troops on the northern route, and then they lie outside the pass, especially quietly bypassing the Shenwei Army, hiding in the north of Haiyan, behind the Shenwei Army. Of course, this plan is fine. When the Tang people came out of the pass, they would concentrate their troops to attack the Tang army first.
Defeat each one.
But no one expected that after Hou Junji took command, Prince Chengqian suddenly ran to Longyou, then took over the command, summoned various troops, and recruited civilians. He should have sent troops quickly, but it took several months to arrive in Haiyan.
From early autumn to late winter.
It was originally a quick ambush, but it took a long time to drag it down.
During these months, the Tuyuhun people still have the opportunity to change their combat plans, but Murong Cheng did nothing and kept waiting.
He even firmly believed that the more Li Chengqian and Hou Junji were like this, the greater his results would be. He targeted Li Chengqian and must capture the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty.
He thought he had met a ridiculous and stupid prince, but he didn't expect that Chengqian was actually a clever tactician. He had been acting and tricking the Tuyuhun people into a group of fools, while Murong Cheng was kept in the dark without knowing it.
In this way, when Chengqian led the Tang cavalry's magic weapon to the sky, Murong Cheng did not react at all. He only had a few scouts outside, but he had no time to watch.
The various scattered among the mountains over a hundred miles wide were also unaware of the road due to heavy snow and their intentional hiding.
Two hundred miles, this was an extremely safe distance.
In Murong Cheng's eyes, although Li Chengqian led a 100,000 army to 200 miles, judging by their usual marching speed, some people could not find themselves at all. Even if they discovered it, it would take them a long time to come. During this heavy snow, Li Chengqian had to leave for at least several days or even ten or half a month.
In his plan, Li Chengqian could not move forward at all. They were very likely to stay in Haiyan for a while and then they would go to the stage. At that time, they would attack and kill Tangren. Everything had been arranged long ago.
So Murong Cheng was at ease waiting for the Tang army to withdraw their troops and return without success, and was preparing to catch them off guard when they were evacuating without any warning.
The hunter who was preparing for hunting had no idea that he had long become prey.
On this gray morning, the sleeping Tuyuhun people were trampled on the camp by the Tang army's iron cavalry. At this time, none of these Tuyuhun people knew how the Tang cavalry came from.
How many have you come?
Who commands the troops?
Where did you come from?
Know nothing.
The valley was not guarded at all, and it was not a preset battlefield, so the Tuyuhun people gathered together like ordinary nomads, setting up tents, and then surrounded the fence to enclose their cattle and sheep. The strong soldiers still lived with their wives, children and parents.
This is normal for Murong Cheng or other Tuyuhun people.
When the troops are sent, we will pull the young and strong out first, and women, children, children, cattle, sheep, and tents. Then we will.
This is just a temporary place for them.
Even if the Tang people really discovered them, they would have enough time to gather the young and strong soldiers and line up to defend outside the valley, and they would still not be affected.
Murong Cheng once proudly fantasized about defeating the Tang army, but he didn't know that His Royal Highness the Prince of Tang would also defeat him.
The Tuyuhun tribes hidden in a hundred miles of the mountainous area at the source of the Huangshui River, Chengqian only stared at Murong Chengxian to fight.
When the Tang cavalry was overwhelming and rushed into the Tuyuhun Camp, this valley, which had not even been built in a mudba camp wall, became in chaos in an instant.
It was like a drop of water dripping into the hot oil and boiling.
The Tang cavalry advanced all the way.
They did not bother with each other and kept rushing in, which made the Tuyuhun people have no time to react.
Murong Cheng was wrapped in a blanket by the loyal guards, and then ran away by the guards for a long time, and his whole body was frozen and blue.
He kept asking what was going on, but no one could answer his question.
No one can figure out what's going on. Anyway, the Tang cavalry is coming, overwhelmingly fierce and unstoppable.
The soldiers mingled with women and children, and they all tried to protect their wives, children, parents, cattle, sheep, and tents, and they could not gather.
Without organization, without defense, and even horses were not even enough to ride, the valley was almost killed.
When Murong Cheng finally ran to a hillside and gathered thousands of soldiers here, he was a little scared. At this time, his loyal guards also found the sheepskin robes of the herdsmen who were dirty but very warm.
Putting on a sheepskin robe and then putting on the guard's armor, Murong Cheng seemed a little funny, but he was finally safe and warm.
At this time, a Tuyuhun nobleman who retreated from the front ran over and described the situation ahead to him in panic.
"I have never seen such a terrifying guy. Those people are like evil ghosts from hell. They are cruel, ruthless, fierce and fierce. They are like a group of well-trained, murderous, and disciplined heavenly soldiers. The cold, bloodthirsty and fierceness are engraved on their faces. The bloody cloak, the black iron armor, the thick and sharp horse spear, and the majestic war horses. These people are irresistible......"
"Do you see clearly who commands the soldiers? Is it Hou Junji?"
The man shook his head, he didn't pay any attention. He was scared by the Tang cavalry and fled all the way.
More and more people fled over and gathered under this hillside.
King Xuan also escaped.
"Damn it, we were all fooled by that Li Chengqian. This bastard is a liar. I saw the flag of Prince Tang, and I also saw his extremely fierce flag of Prince Lu Ben Army, as well as Xi Junmai, one of the five tigers under Qin Lang's command. He is the vanguard officer......"
"Li Chengqian?"
Murong Cheng was shocked and couldn't speak. This seemed like a huge joke. Li Chengqian was ridiculed and despised by him again and again, but now he was killed in front of him?
"How is this possible?"
There is nothing impossible about this.
A day ago, His Royal Highness the Prince of the Tang Dynasty was still in Haiyan Fortress 200 miles away. He was still the absurd prince who hunted everywhere and even brought many beauties to his own personal soldiers in the military camp, which made the Tuyuhun people ridicule together.
But just one day later, he had already entered his camp, and the killing caught them off guard and was frightened.
The crown prince was charging forward, and the Lu Ben Army proudly held the conspicuous flag.
This flag made countless soldiers crazy, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was charging forward. What else could they have to fear and hesitate?
Rush, rush forward, keep rushing.
General Xi fought against the vanguard and rushed in the front, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince followed closely behind. All the cavalry screamed, let alone 100,000, even if there were one million and ten million people in front of them, they would not frown.
Although tired, although it is cold.
But at this time, all the Tang cavalry were extremely excited, hunger, cold and fatigue were all swept away. They were extremely excited at this time, and their blood was boiling.
Go forward, go forward, go forward!
The crown prince did not consider the consequences of their five thousand cavalry rushing into the enemy camp and being surrounded by Tuyuhun people.
The crown prince only said that the brave ones who meet on a narrow road win.
Victory is shot with a soldier's gun.
Step through the enemy camp and crush them!
Gao Kan, Liang Jianzhang and the 45,000 cavalry brought by the other foreign generals, how far is it, how long will it take, and whether it can be reached, the prince ignored it, so they didn't think about it.
The Crown Prince and Xi Junmai led five thousand cavalry and forced the astonishing momentum of fifty thousand cavalry.
In fact, when Murong Cheng and King Xuan confirmed the Tang prince's flag and Luben army flag in the Tang cavalry, and the general flag bought by Xi Jun, they all determined that the main force of the Tang army was coming.
At least it should be more than 50,000 Tang troops, otherwise they would not have the courage to attack and break through like this.
Faced with this judgment, Murong Cheng was trembling, not knowing whether it was because the dirty sheepskin robe on his body was not warm enough or whether it was because this result scared him.
His soldiers were still defeated, and the Tuyuhun camp in the entire valley ran for more than ten miles, and now half of them have been killed.
The north wind is blowing and snowflakes are floating.
