Chapter 582: The Land of Shame
The scorching sun recedes, the temperature drops, and the grass flock bathes in the slanting sun.
Yang Yue led the three battalions of elite cavalry, came from a long journey, and appeared ten miles opposite the Hulu Department, facing it across the Tuoling River.
The spies rushed, shuttled through the grassland, investigated the movements of the Hulu department, set up camp in the barracks, and buried the pot to cook!
Wen Boyan parted ways with Agus, and when he led his troops to the southwest of the Yelupuhua military camp, he received a letter from a messenger sent by Khurunur when he was about to join up with the Khuru tribe.
After a quick glance at the contents of the letter, Wen Boyan clutched the letter, his face was cold, and he shouted to the herald: "This bastard, when will he be at his disposal?"
He came from the Western Front with Agus, Yan Xingjun, Temur and others, and because of the scarcity of iron cavalry around him, he only had 20,000 under his command.
However, among the Turks, he was one of the four tiger generals under the command of Agus, and his tribe was much larger than that of the Kulu tribe.
Kurunur's military rank is not as high as his, and he is a junior general, what qualifications does he have to command him!
Hearing this, the messenger was very helpless, his face turned pale, and he said tremblingly: "General, Yang Yue led the elite to Changyang Mountain, and the prince planned to annihilate Yang Yue's army, but there were not enough troops under his command, and there was no better solution, so he entrusted the general to lead the troops to temporarily block the Yelu Puhua army!"
"Kurunur was defeated by Yang Yue's generals, the army suffered heavy casualties, and they still wanted to defeat Yang Yue's army, their father and son led the troops south, what did they do, they don't know?" Wen Boyan shouted angrily, threw out the letter suddenly, and said very unpleasantly.
The Hulu Department took 250,000 elite cavalry to the south, and also commanded Ashina Guxi 100,000 iron cavalry, and in the end, Hulu folded 50,000 iron cavalry to break Shengzhou, but was trapped in Shengzhou by Yang Qiong, unable to move an inch, and the day was precarious.
The elite cavalry under the command of Hulu Nur was severely damaged by the Dandong generals in Lerao, and the murdered Ashina Guxi was also wiped out.
He fought for Lerao, not only in vain, but also at fault!
Today, when Yang Yue led the elite to come on a long journey to find him for revenge, Hurunur not only did not weigh his own strength and ability, but also wanted to fight fiercely with Yang Yue and annihilate the legion under the command of the other party.
The messenger looked bad, cold sweat rolled down his forehead, he didn't know if Hulu Nur had the ability to defeat the Dandong army under Yang Yue, but if Wen Boyan didn't help, the Kulu tribe would definitely be wiped out.
"General, if you don't block Yang Yue, Yelu Puhua's army will definitely move to the southwest, and the Hulu Department will be attacked by Yang Yue and Yelu Puhua jointly, and it will be difficult to fly, and the Hulu Department may be easily wiped out!" The herald didn't dare to argue, for fear of causing Wen Boyan to be unhappy, but the adjutant general next to him reminded: "Without the Hulu Department, Yang Yue, Yelu Puhua may divert attention to us."
The influence of the Hulu tribe in the Turks is not small, if it is uprooted by Yang Yue and Yelu Puhua, it will have a great impact on the Turks!
Even let the Turkic cavalry be afraid of the Dandong army and the Khitan wolf ride, which is not good for the Turks, and the annexation of the Khitan and the elimination of Yang Yue in the future will be hindered.
"He dares!" Wen Boyan said angrily!
"General, the prince reminds that the main force of the royal court has not yet arrived in front of Lerao, we must help each other and assist each other, if the Hulu Department is annihilated, it will be difficult for the iron cavalry under the command of the general to escape." The messenger reminded softly, staring at Wen Boyan, for fear of offending the other party!
"Hmph, this little bastard still dares to threaten General Ben!" Wen Boyan raised his horsewhip and shouted angrily, eager to immediately lead the troops to the Kulu Department and teach Kulu Nur a hard lesson!
"General, Kurunur is arrogant, but what he said is true!" The lieutenant reminded softly!
"Ulagai, wouldn't the general know this truth, but Yang Yue easily killed General Tie Lisen near the sweat tent, this time he personally led the elite operation, how could Hurunur escape from death!" Wen Boyan expressed his worries.
Kurunur's armed forces and battlefield command ability are not as good as Tie Lisen, Tie Lisen has been buried in the yellow sand, how can Kulu Nur be spared in front of Yang Yue!
From his point of view, Hulunur's idea of annihilating Yang Yue was completely a joke with the lives of 50,000 iron horsemen!
This is extremely irresponsible!
When Wu Lagai heard this, he looked distressed and said: "It's a pity that the royal court iron cavalry has not yet arrived, otherwise, why should we care about the Yelu Puhua army, and how can we be afraid of Yang Yue?"
Things can't be changed in a short time, and it's useless to say anything, Wen Boyan was silent for a moment, and said to the messenger: "Tell Hurunur to be careful in the fierce battle with Yang Yue, don't be injured by the tiger if you don't succeed!"
Ben will personally lead his troops to stop the Yelu Puhua army here!"
"Yes, General!" The messenger bowed his head and rode his horse southwest!
At this time, Wen Boyan raised his head and looked in all directions, stared at the vast grassland nearby, and said to Ulagai: "Yelu Puhua is a despicable and shameless guy, capricious, he likes to take advantage of the fire to rob, fall into the well, Yang Yue led the troops from the east, if he learns that he will definitely send his wolf cavalry to the west, while Yang Yue and Hulu Nur are fighting, surprise attack the Kulu Department, so, we must find a suitable ambush place nearby, hide in advance, and strive to break the Yelu Puhua Army!"
Several attachments pondered with their heads in mind, and after a while, Ulagai Zema approached Wen Boyan and said, "General, according to the map, there is a high ground more than ten miles away from here, and we may set up an ambush there!"
"Funiu Ridge!" Wen Boyan immediately asked, the corners of his mouth full of playful smiles!
The so-called Funiu Ridge is just a convex mountain bag of the grassland, but it stretches for more than ten miles, and it is a good place to camp!
Four years ago, the Turks fought fiercely with the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty was defeated undefeated, and the Turks won without victory.
The most important thing is that when the two sides signed a treaty in Funiuling, the Turks humiliated the Tang army and led the stone tablet at the highest place in Funiuling.
Back then, the Turks bargained for a bargain in the hands of the Tang army, and today, Wen Boyan believes that he can still save the Kulu Department here and change the temporary passive situation of the Turks.
Ulagai said with a smile: "General, most of the places in this area are ancient battlefields, and it is the Tang Dynasty, Khitan, and Turkic, and the three parties have repeatedly fought for the area.
Wen Boyan bowed slightly, clenched his fists and said: "There is a general stationed here, Khitan, Datang Don't want to get involved again!" Don't hesitate, march to Funiu Ridge, and when you arrive, set up an ambush immediately!"
"Yes!"
Several lieutenant generals bowed their heads and shouted and urged the iron cavalry to move forward!
Along the Tuoling River, Yang Yue led the troops to set up camp, and the scouts from the four directions in front of him returned one after another!
Fan Hengwen, Yan Yuefeng, Wei Jiyan, and Zhang Xuanheng gathered in the military tent.
Because before the march from Lerao, the general of the third battalion had a proposal, so he only had to wait patiently for the spies in front to send back the news to understand the situation of the Kulu Division, Wen Boyan, and Yelupu Hua's movements, and he could be ready to send troops to the Kulu Department at any time!
All the generals in the military tent gathered, the spies walked into the army by land, and Yang Yue sat in the handsome position, eager to understand the tripartite eastern front of the Hulu Department!
