At this time, in the entire Thin Bone Law City, the soldiers of the Tang Army were full of joy. For the soldiers of the Don Army, victory in this war came too easily, they did almost nothing, and the Turks herded sheep. However, although victory came easily, military merit was not compromised in any way.

The busiest of the right guards was Du Shanguo, who joined the army with a record, and Du Shanguo was thinking about how to report the victory of this battle to the imperial court. Chen Ying led the right guard to lead more than 2,800 soldiers in nine regiments, including Xun 1st Mansion, Xun 2nd Mansion, Yi 1st Mansion, Yi 2nd Mansion and the Guards Regiment, to fight more with less, annihilating more than 20,000 Turks in just half an hour, beheading more than 1,000 people, and capturing more than 13,000 people.

Du Shanguo was silent for a long time, and sighed: "How does this make this official write a good report?" Even if it is written truthfully, I am afraid that the imperial court will still think that we have falsely reported our military exploits! ”

Gao Yunquan, the deputy of the left, pouted and said, "Du joins the army, you can pretend." ”

He Yuejing sighed and said, "General Chen is really a genius, he actually came up with such a wonderful idea, otherwise, this battle would have been fought?" ”

"Some hit? I can't beat it! Gao Yunquan said: "Let you lead more than 2,000 infantry to attack nearly 20,000 Turks, do you dare to imagine victory in advance?" ”

He Yuejing shook his head and said, "I definitely don't dare to think about it!" ”

At this time, Du Shanguo began to splash ink: "Chen Youwei led the record to join the army Du Shanguo reported that the Turkic and Liang Kou coalition forces totaled more than 50,000 troops, and the soldiers surrounded Lingzhou. Guo Zihe, the governor of Lingzhou, led his troops to fight bloodily, but they were outnumbered, and Lingzhou was in danger. The right guard rate, the loyal general, and the general of the march should not hesitate and lead the troops to support Lingzhou.

On December 27, they should encounter the enemy more than 20 miles southeast of Bogulu City. The enemy Turks have more than 20,000 soldiers, and they should be fearless, and shout with all the soldiers: "Eat the king's lu, be loyal to the king, kill the enemy and serve the country, at this time." After finishing the words, he should take the lead, 10,000 in the lead, and all the soldiers are also dedicated to serving the country, moving forward bravely, and dying and spinning. After a day and night of bloody killing, the blood flowed like a river, the corpses and bones were like mountains, the Turks were invincible, and retreated with defeat, Ying led his troops to march forward, entered the city of thin bones, and captured more than 13,000 Turkic people......"

Now, Chen Ying occupies the Thin Bone Law City, robs the old lair set by Lifu, and the host and guest are translocated, and Chen Ying's situation is far better than before.

"Now that the Turks have suffered heavy losses, our army has won a new victory, and there are less than 10,000 horsemen around Lifushe, we might as well go all at once!" In the Chinese military tent, Wei Wenzhong said excitedly: "Break the siege of Lingzhou!" ”

As the topic opened, the generals talked about it, some said that they wanted to go all out, and some said that they wanted to take it step by step. The generals quarreled for about a quarter of an hour.

Chen Yingdao, who couldn't stand it anymore, said: "Can we fight, we can discuss it again, if we can't win this battle in the future, what should we do?" What if we lay down Liversheth? And what to do? What is the purpose of our visit? ”

As the head of the whole army, Chen Ying focused on the overall situation, rather than the gains and losses in the first battle. Now that the Turks are newly defeated, they can be in one go, but once a full-scale war between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty is triggered, then even if Chen Ying annihilates the entire army of Tong Lifu, he will not only be useless, but will have it.

If he did not destroy the entire strategy of the Turks and the Tang Dynasty, then he would have no merit even if he was a temporary benefit. That's the difference. Of course, there is a way that the ass decides the head, and if it is not in its position, it will not seek its own politics.

Chen Ying did not give a specific order to fight or not to fight, but instead ordered Lu Decao to award the captured sheepskins to the meritorious soldiers according to the merit of beheading. Sima Lu Decao had no opinion on this, but when he heard that Chen Ying actually rewarded the people, Lu Decao felt incredible.

The people follow the army, but they serve. This is a kind of conscription, not only do you have no wages to pay, but you also have to bring your own dry food.

"Since the departure of our army, it has been very hard with the soldiers and civilians, and now that our army has won a great victory, how can we erase their merits?" In fact, Chen Ying knew very well that this great victory over the people should be the first credit.

There should be a bottom line in life, and all the credit of the people has been seized, and Chen Ying really can't do this kind of thing.

"There's no precedent for that!"

"Needless to say, just execute!" Chen Ying waved his hand and said, "Each man will be rewarded with three sheepskins, ten catties of mutton, and twenty catties of horse meat." ”

Lu Decao had no choice but to bow over and agree.

When Chen Ying distributed the captured sheepskins to the minmen, holding the soft sheepskins that the Turks had already nitrated, these minmen had a feeling of unreality.

The men who participated in the conscription were poor people living at the lowest level, and no one ever cared about their lives or deaths. When the dry food they carried with them was finished, whether they could eat or not depended on the mood of the marching commander, Chen Ying did not have a shortage of rations for the people along the way, but this sheepskin was not cheap!

A sheepskin is almost equivalent to three hundred yuan, and now the price is even higher in the cold winter, and this quality sheepskin can be sold for five hundred yuan or even more in Chang'an City. The value of three sheepskins plus mutton and horse meat is more than a thousand yuan, and for ordinary farmers, they can't even save this amount of money after a year of hard work.

All the people got Chen Ying's benefits and bowed to Chen Ying one after another. In the eyes of these military and civilian husbands, Chen Ying has become a good person who has ascended to the Buddha of all families.

A Tang soldier led a yellow horse and personally delivered the reins to Lin Chuanfu. "This horse will be yours from now on!"

Lin Chuanfu was dumbfounded: "My? ”

In the Tang Dynasty, although the price of war horses was not as expensive as in the Song Dynasty, war horses were not cheap things. A strong ox can be sold for 8,000 to 10,000 yuan in Chang'an, while a war horse varies from 9,000 to 30,000 yuan depending on the war horse. It's not something that ordinary people can afford at all, and of course they can't afford it.

"General Chen named to reward Supervisor Lin with a good horse, ask Supervisor Lin to sign it, and go back to restore his life!"

……

Just when Chen Ying rewarded the whole army in the city of thin bones, and Tong Lifusheh stood under the city of Lingzhou, staring at the south tower of Lingzhou City like an eagle, and Gao Dun covered the courtyard of the south city tower, so that they could not see the movement in the south tower outside the city.

It is undoubtedly clear that he knew that it was Guo Zihe's command shed. After nearly an hour of fighting, Lingzhou City was already at the end of its strong crossbow, almost exhausted its vital strength, and at the last moment, even weak women and boys went into battle with weapons.

Even if he gave himself another hour, not even half an hour, he could take Lingzhou City, but at this time, the Thin Bone Law City was lost.

A large number of routs poured into the city of Lingzhou, and the Turkic soldiers who had already climbed the city wall heard the news of the loss of the city of Bogulu, and immediately collapsed like an avalanche.

If Yu Guni was here, Phillips would not hesitate to cut off his head.

It's just a pity that Yu Guni has already surrendered to the Tang Dynasty.

Now what?

Liversh sighed, he lost the city of Thin Bones, and he also lost all the supplies at the same time, not to mention other supplies for the whole army, not even tents. In such cold weather, camping without a tent is sure to freeze into popsicles.

In desperation, Liversh had no choice but to order the troops to retreat.

It's not that he didn't want to recapture the Thin Bone Law City, but the Tang people were good at defending it, although the Thin Bone Law City was broken, but in such a cold weather, only hot water was needed, and the Thin Bone Law City could be built into an iron wall in just half an hour. Not to mention that he only led less than 10,000 horsemen, even if the number of people was three times larger, he would have no way to recapture the Thin Bone Law City.

Thinking of this, he set up a horse's belly and galloped away in the direction of Boar Ridge.
