"Rubbish! A bunch of rubbish! ”

Looking at Haman and Ibn in front of him, in addition to scolding, he also wanted to cut them down.

In five days, the 15,000 army commanded by the two launched three attacks on Datun City, all of which failed.

The initial attack was launched by Tongrabe, but it was defeated, and then Ibn took the initiative to ask for help, but the result was not much better, and was repulsed by the bows and crossbows of the army in the city, and also lost thousands of men.

After two defeats, at the request of Fugulin, the armies of the two divisions attacked together, but in the end they failed.

In three days, the two armies lost more than 7,000 soldiers and horses, of which more than 4,000 were killed.

Although Fu Gulin did not require the two departments to attack Datun City, the three successive failures also made Fu Gulin lose face.

"Great Khan, it's not that we can't do it, it's that the weapons of the Tang Army are too powerful. Their crossbows, and the kind of thunder that can explode, our people finally braved the rain of arrows to break through to the city wall, and they were killed and injured by the thunder. Ibn cried.

"What the hell was that thunder that day?" Fu Gulin's face sank.

"Back to the Great Khan, we don't know. Knowing that when that thing cracked, there were a lot of fragments inside, which could cut through the armor of our warriors, and even the soldiers holding shields would be inexplicably pushed away by a huge force.

Most of our warriors were killed under the walls, and most of the siege ladders were blown up. ”

Speaking of which, Fu Gulin was also very aggrieved.

Can you not be aggrieved?

From the beginning to the present, his men have not climbed the walls of Datun City, although they also counterattack with bows and arrows under the walls, but the damage caused is very limited.

"You are all quibbling, Ben Khan doesn't believe that Tang Jun's stuff is endless!" Fu Gulin scolded angrily.

At this moment, a fast horse came galloping outside, and soon a person flew down from the war horse and quickly came to the front of Fu Gulin.

"Qi Qi Great Khan, we have found reinforcements from the Tang Army!"

"What? Where are they? Hearing that the traces of the main force of the Tang army had been discovered, Fu Gulin didn't care to reprimand Haman and Ibn anymore.

"Hui Dahan, more than 100 miles east of Puchanghai, about 500 miles away from my camp."

"More than 500 miles? Is it so fast? Fu Gulin said in a deep voice, "How many Tang troops are there?" ”

"About 40,000 to 50,000 people, it is suspected that there is a part of the infantry, the specific number is unknown." The scout replied.

"Foot riding assembly? It's normal, the infantry of the Don Army is strong, but the cavalry is not strong. If the previous 30,000 cavalry is calculated, the infantry of the Tang army may have 1 to 20,000 people, which is not strong.

Can you find out where the cavalry of the Tang Army came from? Are they all Tang people? Fu Gulin asked again.

"Back to the Great Khan, there are Tubo and Uighur among the Tang army scouts we fought against."

"Uighurs? Could it be the Hexi Uighurs? Fu Gulin guessed.

He also knew about the destruction of the Ganzhou Uighurs in Hexi, and he also knew that the Ganzhou Uighurs had long since been divided and were now divided into several small tribes, unable to gather together.

The Tang army likes to gather the soldiers of these fetters tribes when they go to war, which is a habit formed at the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

From this point of view, the 30,000 cavalry of the Tang army should be composed of the cavalry of the Tang people and the cavalry of some of the fetters tribes, so the cavalry strength is not strong.

As for why Haman and the others were defeated, there was no other reason for him than to be stupid.

"The order goes down, and orders the headquarters of the Khanate and all the cavalry of Qiuzi to assemble, prepare dry rations for a few days, and tomorrow we will go hunting.

After defeating the Tang army reinforcements, we will come back to clean up this Zhongyun department.

Haman's agents, and Ibn Amir, your two armies are responsible for staying in the city of Datun, and do not let the lambs inside escape. ”

"Great Khan rest assured!" Seeing Fu Gulin's gloomy face, Haman hurriedly reassured.

The movement of more than 50,000 Uighur cavalry from the camp was too great to conceal the defenders of Datun City.

"Commander, this time the Hulls are moving big enough!"

Looking at the army that stretched for more than ten miles, Feng Guanguan, one of the three generals of the Tang Army in Datun City, held on to the city wall and sighed.

Feng Guanguan, this name doesn't need to be thought of, it is also related to Huo Qu's disease. It is said that he changed his name after being admitted to martial arts, and he wanted to take the champion Hou Huo as an example.

He is a student who graduated from the fourth phase of martial arts, and he has achieved the position of general at the age of thirty, and it is difficult to say whether he is good or bad.

Li Hongding nodded, "It seems that the Uighurs have discovered the traces of my Tang reinforcements." I knew that there must be something wrong with the Uighurs who had been letting so many people attack the city, but I didn't expect that the Uighurs were targeting our reinforcements.

I don't know if the reinforcements will win. ”

"Don't worry, the commander doesn't have to worry, this time the Dadu Protector personally leads the army, and it will definitely make the Uighurs make a big mistake." Feng Guanguan said with a smile.

Seeing that his subordinates were so confident, Li Hongding was also a little surprised, "I also hope so, but let's take care of Datun City, we can't participate in the big battle over there." ”

"Commander, we can't participate in the big battle over there, but what's in front of us." Feng Guanguan suddenly whispered.

"What do you want to do?" Li Hongding hesitated.

"The Uighur army left behind outside the city is not an elite. Moreover, if the attack fails in the past few days, the morale will definitely plummet, if we can send thousands of cavalry to sneak attack at night, we may be able to achieve miraculous results. "Feng Guanguan is a little nervous.

He has been passive in defense for the past few days, but he is suffocated.

Before, the Uighur army was there, and he naturally didn't dare to make a mistake, but now that the Uighur army is gone, isn't it a great opportunity?

"Wouldn't it be a bit risky?" Li Hongding hesitated.

"Commander, this is a good opportunity. If the commander felt that it was risky, he could send people to Shicheng and Grape City to transfer troops, and only three or four thousand cavalry would be needed to break through the Uighur camp.

At that time, regardless of whether the Uighur army won or lost, and our defeat of the Uighur army in front of us could be regarded as weakening the strength of the Uighurs to a certain extent, wouldn't it be more conducive to protecting the city of Datun? Feng Guanguan suggested.

Li Hongding was also said to be a little moved, and immediately asked people to take advantage of the night to open the blockage at the West City Gate and send people to Shicheng Town to move rescue troops.

If he could break through the Uighur camp in front of him, it would be an opportunity for him Li Hongding to make a name for himself.

However, Feng Guanguan was not wrong, that is, the morale of the Uighur army outside the city was indeed not good.

Although he still sent people out to provoke the next day, he did not dare to launch a siege, which strengthened Li Hongding's determination to do a big job.

。。。。。。

"Daduhu, yesterday our scouts fought with the Uighur scouts, each with its own losses, and I think the Uighur scouts have also sent back the news that they have found the traces of our army.

Can we stop the march and wait for the Uighurs to come to the door? Zhong Wei suggested.

"Based on yesterday, we should be four or five hundred miles away from Datun City, and even if the Uighur scouts are quick to whip up, they will not be able to reach the camp until this afternoon or night at the earliest.

Counting the speed of the Uighur army, it would have taken two days to encounter us.

We'll have to walk again, it's not a good place to defend.

Tomorrow, scouts will be sent out early in the morning to search for easily defended campsites along the way, and then wait for the Uighurs to come to the door. ”

Looking at the map in front of him, Liu Kui shook his head.

This game was carefully designed by him, so he naturally had to ensure that nothing went wrong, and it was still a must-win, and neither he nor the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate could afford to fail.

"The last general ordered, early tomorrow morning, the last general will send ten teams of scouts to find a suitable place to camp in the mouth of the capital."

Zhong Wei commanded.

The next day, under the search of the scouts, they really found a suitable place.

Originally a beacon tower, it was located on a high ground with an oasis next to it, enough for tens of thousands of troops to drink and camp, and the artillery could be placed on the high ground with a wide field of vision, which was very suitable for defense.

Seeing this suitable place to camp, Liu Kui smiled and waited for the arrival of the Uighur army.

Whoever kills the deer depends on the next battle.

However, the Uighurs did not disappoint him, and shortly after dawn the next day, the scouts spotted the Uighur scouts, and a fierce conflict ensued between the two sides.

Near noon, a huge cavalry appeared in the sky.
