In this attack, the Tang army also has another sharp weapon, that is, iron fire and thunder, there are nearly 100 camels carrying whirlwind cannons, whirlwind cannons are a small stone cannon, which can shoot dozens of pounds of stones out of more than 100 steps, it is not fired on camels, but because camels can carry it to march and move like the wind, so it is called whirlwind cannons.

At this time, behind the Mo Dao Army, seven or eight whirlwind cannons appeared, and a small iron fire mine weighing forty catties was placed on each whirlwind cannon, and the iron fire mine was filled with quenched iron nails.

'Bang! Boom! Boom! ’

Eight whirlwind cannons were fired at the same time, and one after another iron fire thunderbolts flew over the heads of the heavily armored infantry, whistling towards the dense crowd in the distance.

'Boom! ’

Eight iron fire thunderbolts exploded in the crowded place one after another, the explosion sound was thrilling, dense quenched iron nails burst out in all directions, and a large number of Hui cavalry were killed and injured by iron nails, but no matter whether they were people or war horses, once they were hit by quenched iron nails, they would lose their combat effectiveness in a short period of time and be ready to be killed.

The explosion of the iron fire thunder boosted the morale of the Tang army, but it frightened the Hui Hui, and the will to fight and morale quickly faded.

In the distance, Horton Modagan also heard the explosion of iron fire and thunder, he was taken aback, and immediately thought of an unconfirmed legend, the year before last, 30,000 southern invasion of the Hui army in Hedong Province were wiped out, it is said that they died in a powerful weapon, but a very small number of Hui soldiers who fled back could not tell what kind of weapon it was, but said that the sound was like thunder.

This matter was known only to the Uighur high-level officials, and the ordinary Uighur soldiers and ordinary people knew nothing about it.

Horton Modagan immediately ordered: "Command to withdraw!" ”

'When! While! While! ’

The bell for the withdrawal rang, and more than 10,000 Hui troops left the battlefield one after another, but the commander of the ten thousand soldiers, Basil, shouted: "No evacuation is allowed, whoever dares to evacuate will be killed!" ”

A hundred steps away, Guo Song suddenly heard Basil's shout, and he realized that there was a big fish beside him, and his eyes quickly locked on Basil who was yelling.

Guo Song galloped on his horse, took off the little heavenly bow, drew a wolf's tooth arrow, and drew the bow like a full moon in the gallop, and shot an arrow.

The wolf's tooth arrow was extremely fast, and it was in front of Basil's eyes in the blink of an eye, and before he could react, 'Poof! An arrow came through his mouth, and an arrow with blood and brains came out of the back of his head, and it pierced through Basil's skull.

Basil didn't even scream, he fell off his horse on his back and died on the spot.

The thousands of cavalrymen who had been stopped by him saw that the Lord would be killed by a single arrow, and they were so frightened that they turned around and fled, and the speed of their flight was even faster.

At this time, Guo Song issued a convening order, "Blow the hundred!" ”

'Woo-' A hundred trumpets sounded at the same time, and the low and desolate sound of trumpets echoed through heaven and earth.

'Woo-' A horn came from the east in response, and Li Bing appeared with 20,000 cavalry;

Immediately after that, a horn sounded in the north, 'Woo-', and the 20,000 troops led by Yao Jin also responded to the main force.

Horton Modagan changed his face greatly, and he suddenly realized that they had entered the trap of the Tang army, the Tang army was by no means more than 20,000 people, it should be 50,000 or 60,000 troops, and the intelligence error made them face a situation from which they could never recover.

"Break through and return to the tent!"

Horton Modagan gave the order for the whole army to retreat, he must take advantage of the enemy's encirclement is not completed, kill the encirclement, withdraw to the tent, this is the royal army, if the whole army is destroyed, he will not survive.

But the withdrawal order was still too late, and black cavalry appeared in the north and east, boundless, killing the Hui army.

The Modao army and cavalry in the south also continued to move north, and the Tang army cut off all the retreat routes of the Hui army from the southeast, south, and south.

.........

Back to the Hui tooth tent, in order to appease Princess Ye to hold a family banquet, the atmosphere is strong, the people who participate in the banquet are all Hui royal family, are the brothers and nephews of Dorus and his wife and concubine.

Dorus smiled while holding the wine cup: "It's been a long time since there has been such a family gathering, everyone gets together, and the family affection is stronger, and such gatherings should be held often in the future." ”

Tonight, the female guests accounted for more than half, at the suggestion of Princess Ye, everyone no longer drank traditional milk wine, but changed to wine, the best wine from the Central Plains provided by Princess Ye, is a national gift sent by the Tang Dynasty, Meishou wine.

Princess Ye raised her glass and said with a smile: "Brother Wang's proposal is excellent, I suggest holding a family banquet once a month." ”

She looked at Dorus, raised the jade cup and said, "Brother Wang, I use the jade cup to honor you, I heard that you must use the jade cup to drink wine, so that the taste is stronger." ”

"Good! I also use jade cups. ”

Princess Ye lifted the wine jug and filled the jade cup with wine, and said with a smile: "We gave up our previous suspicions and drank this cup, and I will no longer be involved in politics in the future, and I will completely transfer the power to Brother Wang." ”

Dorus was overjoyed, "Is this true, princess?" ”

"When did we steppe people never believe what we said?"

Dorus was overjoyed, raised the jade cup and said, "Let's do it!" ”

The two drank all the wine in the glass, and through their fingers, a trace of coldness flashed in Princess Ye's eyes.

The drinking was very enjoyable, and everyone dispersed only when they were half drunk, but Princess Ye grabbed Princess Li Ruyi of Xian'an and asked her to chat with her tonight.

Dorus smiled: "You guys have a good chat, and it's not too late to come back tomorrow." ”

Princess Ye pulled Li Ruyi into the carriage, several of Li Ruyi's personal maids also followed on horseback, and Zhang Yun led more than 100 cavalry to escort the carriage to the east camp.

The carriage entered the camp, and Princess Ye ordered Zhang Yun: "Order the other troops, no one is allowed to sleep tonight." ”

"Humble duty understands!"

Zhang Yun immediately sent someone to pass the order.

Li Ruyi was shocked in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "What happened?" ”

Princess Ye smiled: "I brought you here to save your life, otherwise Kedun and the Khan's own soldiers would not be able to spare you." ”

"Why?"

"Don't ask, you'll find out in the evening."

Li Ruyi was shocked in his heart, but he didn't dare to speculate, so he had to follow Princess Ye back to the big tent.

That night, the tooth tent began to riot, Princess Ye didn't sleep, she was wearing armor and waiting in the big tent, Li Ruyi didn't dare to sleep, she vaguely guessed something, and her heart was in turmoil.

At this time, a guard hurriedly reported at the door of the big tent, "Princess Qiyu, there is news from the tooth tent, the Khan vomited blood and died several times." ”

"Ahh

Li Ruyi stood up suddenly, she couldn't hold back any longer, walked quickly to Princess Ye and asked, "It's you.... Poisoned the Khan. ”

"Ruyi, you are still too simple, tonight Khan poisoned the milk wine, if I drink it, I will be the one who vomits blood and fights several fights."

"But... How could the Khan? ”

Princess Ye said lightly: "If he wants to kill me, will I just be tied?" ”

"You ..... You're simply not human. Li Ruyi sat down dejectedly.

"Your royal family also kills each other, father and son, mother and son cannibalism, is it still less?"

Princess Ye glanced at her coldly and said, "If it weren't for Zhang Yun begging me to save you, I wouldn't have pulled you over, once they knew that the poison source came from the grapes of the Tang Dynasty, did you think about your fate?" I tell you, it's your luck to even kill yourself by poisoning, you will be worse off than dead, thousands of men are waiting for you. ”

After speaking, Princess Ye strode out of the camp.

Princess Ye's camp is about three miles away from the main camp, with an army of 3,000 people, 1,000 Han guards and 2,000 guards from her own tribe, the camp covers an area of hundreds of acres, and there are hundreds of big tents distributed.

Princess Ye's tribe is a thousand miles away in the east, called Yehebu, she is also called Princess Ye, she usually returns to her pasture in autumn and winter, and comes to the Khan's tooth tent in spring and summer, but last year she did not go back, participated in the struggle for the Hui Khan, she assisted Dorus to seize the position of Khan.

This time Dorus was poisoned by her, the Tang army had been killed from the south, she planned to return to the tribe as soon as dawn, but she had to get the news of Dorus's death before she could leave with confidence.

Princess Ye rode to the camp gate, several commanders stepped forward to salute, Princess Ye glanced at Zhang Yun and said to him: "You come with me!" ”

They rode out more than a dozen steps, and Princess Ye said in a low voice, "Don't you really want to go with me?" ”

Zhang Yun shook his head, "It's impossible for me to betray myself, maybe one day in the future, I will come to the grassland to visit you." ”

Princess Ye sighed softly, "I also know that I can't keep you, but I'm still very happy, I count the days, I should be pregnant with your child, Zhang Yun, you take Princess Xianning away!" You're leaving tonight, and I'm going back. ”

Zhang Yun nodded silently, Princess Ye suddenly turned around and hugged him, fell on his shoulder and cried bitterly.
