Chapter 974: A classic example of blitzkrieg

974. A classic example of a blitzkrieg

Fearing that he had misheard, he exclaimed, "What did you say, Khan? ”

"Withdraw, withdraw, it's too late." The Khan was furious, kicked away his thoughts, and went out shouting: "Assemble, retreat to the moraine."

Stubbornly trying to grab Li, he shouted: "Khan, we still have 30,000 Turkic warriors, I can definitely hold the city of Zhanxiang, why do you withdraw without fighting?" ”

"Bastard, Li Jing is the commander of the Tang Army, when he arrives here, the main force of the Tang Army will definitely come here, and the soldiers will not come from the country, does Li Jing dare to come here alone?" As soon as the Khan pushed away his obsessiveness, he shouted, and then drew his saber and retreated.

He knew that although he said that he would definitely defend the city, but the Turkic soldiers and horses were all cavalry across the desert, and the Turkic soldiers and horses were fighting the five scum when they got off the horse, and the Turkic soldiers and horses defending the city was simply a joke, whether it was defending the city or attacking the city, the Han people were the ancestors, only in the vast wilderness, they Turkic people would be majestic If the main force of the Tang army also came, the stubborn thinking force was really not sure to hold the city, and the stubborn thinking force was also in a hurry to collect the soldiers and horses.

The Turkic defenders at the head of the city were at a loss with scimitars, and when they didn't know how to defend the city, they received the news of retreat, and they all went down to the city in a panic.

"What's going on, Boss? Why are the Turkic soldiers gone, is there an ambush? Seeing this, the adjutant general was puzzled and asked suspiciously.

Li Jing squinted his eyes, shook his head slightly, and just waved his hand heavily and shouted: "Siege."

Zhanxiang city is all loess rammed, although tamped, but it is not tall, three thousand horsemen rushed to the city, pulled the bow and shot, the arrow carried the sound of breaking the wind into the city, but there was no response, at this time, the scout came to report, "Governor, the Turks have been evacuated from the north gate, among which there seems to be a Turkic Khan Daxu."

"Profiteering fled". Li Jing smiled, twisted his beard and said with a smile: "If the general's expectations are good, Li Li must have thought that my army was all here, so he fled in a hurry."

"Zhang Liang, quickly lead two thousand horsemen to chase and kill, and kill the enemy, the more the merrier. Remember, don't rush after it, and don't threaten your name." Li Jing said solemnly.

The deputy general beside him is Zhang Liang, the prince of Changping County, who is also a general, and he was excited to hear the news of Lili's escape, and then he was stunned when he heard Li Jing's military order, and then frowned and said: "The chief manager, Lili fled in a hurry at this time, this is a great opportunity, why not attack with the whole army and kill Lili, so the Turkic war can be determined."

Li Jing frowned when he heard this, this Zhang Liang is famous for being arrogant and indulgent, and it is not the first time he has questioned his military orders along the way, Li Jing does not want to deal with him, but Zhang Liang is also trusted by the sage, and he is the prince of the court, and he immediately said with an expressionless face: "This national war is to destroy the Turks, not Lili, Lili is dead, the Turkic forces scattered all over the country are still there, only Lili is alive, can gather Turkic soldiers and horses, and then annihilate them."

After a simple explanation, and the face was given, Li Jing shouted: "Act according to the military order, and those who violate the order will be beheaded."

Zhang Liang's face changed when he heard this, and a haze flashed in his eyes, but he still responded solemnly and led two thousand horsemen to pursue.

Li Jing led the remaining 1,000 horsemen effortlessly entered the city of Xiangcheng, until dawn, Zhang Liang led the army back to the city, this time thousands of miles to attack the city, did not waste a soldier to capture the city, and Zhang Liang chased the tail all the way to chase and kill, a total of about 5,000 enemies were killed, a big victory!

Two days later, Ma Yicheng got the news, and Zhang Gongjin quickly reported the victory to the capital.

Chang'an City is still as prosperous and lively as ever, but it seems that the whole city is shrouded in a heavy atmosphere, and the street vendors are not discussing the unnutritious topic of which son-in-law married the first few concubines, but all the discussions are about war.

Everyone knows that this is a battle of national fortunes, and if it is won, the Tang Dynasty will expand its territory, and the northern land will no longer be invaded by the Turks for a hundred years. If you lose, you can't imagine what kind of life will be at that time.

"Hey, fourth, you say, can we win Datang? I'm panicking, if I lose, then the Turkic thieves won't fight to Chang'an again." A merchant put down his burden, rubbed his shoulders and asked a vendor next to him.

The vendor was not happy when he heard this, "Hey, what you said is not good, can you win?" That's a must win, don't you look at how strong our Tang Dynasty is this time, this time it's hundreds of thousands of troops, all of them are elite veterans who have fought in battles, and, you look at the general who led the troops, but Dai Guogong, Master Li, Dai Guogong, his old man followed the saint back then, called an invincible opponent all over the world, that Wang Shichong was powerful, it was destroyed, and the pseudo-Liang State in the south was powerful enough, it was destroyed. He is an old man, how can a mere Turkic barbarian tribe resist ......".

…………

"Good news, good news, on behalf of the Duke of the country, he traveled thousands of miles, broke through the Turkic occupation of Xiangcheng, and killed nearly 10,000 enemies. Good news, good news......". The vendor was waving his hands and talking vigorously, when suddenly, a dusty messenger knight slammed into the south gate, shouting in a hoarse voice.

Pedestrians and passers-by on Suzaku Street in Chang'an were overjoyed when they heard the words, and they celebrated with their crowns.

Hulong Villa, Li Pojun, who received the good news, is also very happy, the history is still the original history, there is no deviation, sure enough, the first battle of the Tang Dynasty to destroy the Eastern Turks is to Li Jing thousands of miles to attack and occupy Xiangcheng to win, this is a classic battle of blitzkrieg in the history of war, Li Pojun is still very impressed.

Li Jing's most classic tactic of destroying the Eastern Turks is blitzkrieg, day and night, running thousands of miles, and attacking when the enemy is defenseless, which is similar to the German blitzkrieg against Poland in later generations, but Li Jing was more than a thousand years earlier than Guderian, and he did not put forward such a systematic theory, at least the three elements of blitzkrieg: fast, surprising, and concentrated, and the three elements Li Jing used when he blitzkrieg the Turks.

With this victory in the first battle, Li Pojun also remembered that the "Northern Sui" regime in Dingxiang County after the first victory in history also perished, and Yang Zhengdao, the king of Sui, and Empress Xiao also returned to the dynasty, and was accepted into the harem by the old and unashamed Li Shimin, you must know that at that time, Empress Xiao was already fifty or sixty years old, this taste ...... It's so heavy that it doesn't count.

Moreover, Li Pojun clearly remembered that the destruction of the "Northern Sui" this time was mainly because a general under the command of Lili Khan rebelled.

Who is it? The names of the Turks are difficult to remember, and Li Pojun can't remember them clearly, but Li Pojun has a shadow, so he called Li Zhen and commanded: "Pass the order to the Turkic internal shadows, try your best to encircle the Turkic generals, and you can rebel against one by one." It is time for them to play a role in collecting all military and political information within the Turks."
