Chapter 190: Ashina Ayi
In the round of siege just now, although the Tang army had casualties, but with the help of thunder and arrows, the casualties were only more than 300, which was less than half of the base of the siege force of 20,000 people.
In the wars of the Tang Dynasty, half of them were not even about losses.
20,000 people are enough to take the Gaochang Wangcheng, which is not much guarded, and with Li Xiaogong under his command, Li Jing can still rest assured.
"Order the defenders of the canyon not to let go of a single Gaochang soldier until the siege troops capture Ko Wentai alive! If necessary, release a ground-level thunderstorm to block the canyon! ”
Li Jing is known as the "God of the Army", if he writes "Romance of the Tang Kingdom", he must also be a figure like Zhuge .
The siege force was 20,000 infantry, the canyon defenders were 10,000 infantry, and the Northern West Turkic border was 20,000 cavalry.
This is Li Jing's arrangement!
When Li Xiaogong left Beijing, he transferred four ground-level thunderbolts from the Thunderbolt Division, one of which had been used in the city wall, and the remaining three were in the canyon defenders, one in the cavalry unit, and the last one in Li Jing's tent.
Although there are only 10,000 defenders of the canyon, they can be said to be easy to defend and difficult to attack according to natural hazards, and they can also blow up the canyon with ground-level thunder to delay time.
It's funny to say that after the Gaochang Royal City was established in this canyon, they originally wanted to rely on this natural danger in wartime, but they didn't expect Li Jing to dare to cross the desert, and finally borrowed their canyon to block their own reinforcements.
Don't worry about the canyon! All that's left is 20,000 reinforcements from the Western Turks!
Li Jing closed the arrow box and ordered the two guards to enter the commander's tent to carry the ground-level thunder, he planned to go to see the reinforcements of the Western Turks, and it was best to order a ground-level thunder with his own hands to have a good time.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, Li Xiaogong's ground-level thunder wiped out most of the defenders of Gaochang Wangcheng, so when the dragon scale army and the pioneer battalion stepped on the blood and mud and poured into Gaochang Wangcheng, they didn't even encounter effective resistance.
The merchants who lived in the city, regardless of their race, fell to their knees with their gold and silver in their arms, praying for their lives.
"His grandmother's, stand up, don't embarrass us Tang people!" Li Xiaogong saw a Tang businessman kneeling on the ground and kowtowing repeatedly, so he was angry.
The fat businessman heard that the mighty general was speaking the Tang dialect, so he returned to his soul: "General, are you from the Tang Dynasty?" ”
"Nonsense!" Li Xiaogong untied the horizontal knife from his right belt and threw it in front of the merchant, and then continued to lead the team forward.
The merchant shook his head, drew his horizontal knife, and said to the merchants of various countries who knelt on the ground: "He Shengcai, a merchant in the Tang Dynasty, is attacking the city, it is my Tang army!" All merchants outside the Tang Kingdom can survive if they sacrifice half of their property to the army! ”
Facts have proved that merchants are the profession that masters the most foreign languages in this dynasty, and He Shengcai spoke Tang dialect, but all merchants understood it.
Half of the property? Merchants from all over the world gave "kind" evaluations in their own languages.
Offering half of your fortune to pray for your life, the price is very low! You know, if they encounter a steppe wolf clan, but they don't care about killing and burying it, half of the property? I can't keep the hair!
Li Xiaogong is worthy of being the king of the county who was killed on the battlefield, a long sword can be used superbly, and he can kill one person in five steps! The last garrison of the Gaochang Palace was completely wiped out under the onslaught of the Dragon Scale Army and the Pioneer Battalion.
"Surround the palace, I don't believe that this Ko Wentai can still run away!"
Li Xiaogong inserted his long sword into the palace gate, and then sat cross-legged on the steps.
He didn't need to do the rest himself.........
Li Jing led a team of guards and rushed to the cavalry's place of resistance.
20,000 Tang cavalry against 20,000 Western Turkic reinforcements, are they fighting? It's really fighting, but it's only a few hundred against hundred, and it looks more like an army of 40,000 is setting up a stage and acting, rather than fighting to the death.
On the highest flag in the Western Turkic reinforcements, there is a golden wolf head pattern, Li Jing was shocked when he saw this pattern, the Turks believe in the wolf god the most, the wolf head pattern can only be used by the top characters, the golden wolf head is the privilege of the royal family!
Today's Western Turkic nobles are numerous, and there is no actual king, why can this reinforcement wear a golden wolf head pattern?
Li Jing's arrival ended this "big drama", after Mingjin, the soldiers on both sides withdrew, and there was not a single one left in the middle, which shows how fake this so-called "war" is!
Li Jing knocked the horse's belly, let the war horse take a few steps forward, and then said loudly: "I am Li Jing, the Duke of the Tang Dynasty, dare to ask which Western Turkic guest has arrived!" ”
The word "Li Jing" caused a riot of Western Turkic reinforcements.
At that time, Li Jing commanded the army to devour the territory of the Eastern Turks like gluttony, and several leaders of the Western Turks wanted to try, but without exception suffered a big loss, resulting in the biggest winner of this war to the Tang Dynasty.
So when the name "Li Jing" appeared, many people even pulled out their scimitars and took out arrows.
"****", with a coquettish shout, the commotion of the Western Turkic reinforcements quieted down.
In Li Jing's suspicious gaze, a pure white war horse came out of the Western Turkic reinforcements, and the horse was not a big man with five big and three thick, but a girl with a stunning face.
The girl was wearing leather armor, and her long hair was braided into small braids, and she was sassy and heroic.
Li Jing just glanced at the placement of the woman's bow and arrows and scimitar, and knew that she had been on the battlefield, not riding a white horse to "travel before the battle".
"Marshal Li, I have admired the name for a long time, and I only got it today."
The woman hugged Li Jing with a fist, but what she said in her mouth was the most authentic Tang dialect!
Li Jing also hugged his fist back and asked, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”
"Little girl Ashina Ayi, or you can also call me by my Chinese name, Ah Shiyue!"
"Ashina!" Li Jing couldn't help but glance at Ashina Ayi a few times, although the Western Turks are full of nobles, but when it comes to bloodline, it is the Ashina family that is the most noble, because the word "Ashina" has the meaning of blue in Turkic language, and also has the meaning of "noble wolf" and "noble wolf"!
If you really want to find a royal family in the Western Turks, it must be the Ashina family.
"Disrespectful, disrespectful, I can't imagine that it's the princess of the Ashina family." Li Jing hugged his fists again to show his respect, after all, in terms of status, Ashina Ayi is really equivalent to a princess, and she is more advanced than him.
Ashina Ayi smiled, revealing sharp little tiger teeth: "Marshal Li came here from thousands of miles away, but he didn't come to join my Turks!" Your tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are wandering around Gaochang, and your intentions are obvious! ”
Insomnia, so the code word, the role of Ashina Ayi, how to say it, in fact, I thought about it a long time ago, and then... No spoilers!
