Hearing the sound, King Zuo Xian picked up his wine glass, and looked at Yan Xingjun with half-squinted eyes. I sigh inwardly that they are treacherous.

In the current situation, the Turkic tribes are short of food and clothing.

Prepare to plunder grain from the Tang border to help the tribe tide over the difficulties, as in previous years.

This time, Yang Yue led the army to fight in person, and put on the momentum of fighting to the death with the Turks in the border fortress.

It is becoming more and more difficult to snatch food from the cities of the Tang Dynasty, and every grain of grain may be exchanged for the lives of tribal athletes.

Whoever leads the army to grab food must first meet the needs of his own tribesmen.

Yan marched, and the king of Zuogu Li rushed to send troops to grab food, and he was clearly selfish, afraid that he would be ready to ensure that his tribe had enough food first.

However, the elite of his tribe suffered heavy losses from the Tang army and lost the strength to compete with the Tang army.

Under the current situation, only Yan Xingjun, who relied on strong soldiers and strong horses and combat experience, led the army to chase and kill Zhang Shaoming and Lin Kaiyue, and snatched the grain and grass of the two armies.

When he thought for a while, King Zuo Xian looked at Yan Xingjun and said, "General Yan, you have fought more battles with the Tang army, and it stands to reason that the general should lead the army to grab food. However, the elite of the Yan Department was stationed in Yunzhong County, and they had to contend with the three Tang generals from the Eastern Front, Luo Shishang, Li Yucheng, and Yuan Mingsha.

If the general leads the elite of the Yan army to return to the grassland and chase and kill Lin Kaiyue and Zhang Shaoming, the defense of the eastern front of the army will be empty, and the situation of our troops will become more and more dangerous.

After coordinating the overall situation, the matter of seizing the grain of the Tang army, this king suggested that it be handed over to King Zuogu Li to complete, what will be the intention?"

Yan Bu Tie cavalry defended on the eastern front, he led the army to defend on the western front, and the left valley Liwang was on the middle line.

If the Zuogu Liwang led the Chinese army to chase and kill Lin Kaiyue and Zhang Shaoming, it would not only ensure that the existing Turkic forces would not fall, but also rob the Tang army of food.

Yan Xingjun frowned slightly when he heard this, glanced at King Zuogu Li, and said reluctantly: "Lord Wang, King Zuogu Li has never fought with the Tang Army, and he doesn't understand the style of the Tang Army generals, Zhang Shaoming and Lin Kaiyue are the leaders in the Tang Army, this battle cannot be careless, Yan insists on leading the army to fight."

In other things, he can back down.

Food is related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of tribes, how can it be easily given up.

Even though he knew that he led the army to pursue and kill Lin Kaiyue and Zhang Shaoming, it would lead to the emptiness of the defense on the eastern front, and Luo Shishang, Li Yucheng, and Yuan Mingsha led the army to advance westward, which would inevitably compress the living space of the Turks.

He stayed on the eastern front and barely stopped the westward advance led by generals such as Luo Shishang.

So what, can you get enough food?

Without food, he could only hold out on the Eastern Front for a few months.

"General Yan, what do you mean by this, our department can become one of the four strongest tribes except for the Turkic royal family, all of which are fought on the battlefield, but it is the general who led the army to attack Tang several times and returned with a disastrous defeat.

Today, he blocked the king from leading the army to chase and kill Lin Kaiyue and Zhang Shaoming, and take away their food, what is the intention?"

King Zuo Gu Li's expression was serious, even a little cold, and he retorted angrily against Yan Xingjun.

In order to ensure the steady continuation of the tribe, this thief has dared to assassinate the king of Khan, if the Yan army seizes the grain of the Tang army, how can the Yan army be distributed to other tribes.

At this moment, how can you let Yan be dominant?

Don't hit people in the face, scold people don't expose their shortcomings.

The Battle of Wudinghe was regarded by Yan Xingjun as a lifelong shame, and few generals dared to mention it in front of him.

King Zuogu Li exposed the shortcomings in public, which made Yan Xingjun angry.

Prepare to lift the table and exit the tent.

At this time, King Zuo Xian chuckled and said: "General Yan, the territory of the Tang Dynasty is vast, Luo Shishang and the three of them led the army to defend Yunzhong County, and the general still has a chance to lead the troops to the south, when it is really bad, you can lead the Yan army to the south to snatch other ordnance and food in Hedong Road!"

Speaking of this, Yan Xingjun suddenly realized that King Zuo Xian and King Zuo Guli led the army to defend each other with him on the surface, and these two people had prejudices against him in their bones.

To put it bluntly, they don't believe in themselves.

Holding back the anger in his heart, Yan Xingjun clasped his fists perfunctorily and said, "Yan obeys."

Unable to plunder the grain of Zhang Shaoming and Lin Kaiyue, he had to send light horsemen south to Yunzhong County to plunder.

If it succeeds, it will be more rewarding than chasing Lin Kaiyue.

Hearing this, King Zuo Xian nodded with satisfaction, and King Zuo Gu Li also smiled.

This arrangement could not be more appropriate.

King Zuo Xian got up and said firmly: "The situation is getting worse and worse, and the tribes can't afford to delay, King Zuo Guli, you prepare an army to hunt down Lin Kaiyue as soon as possible."

"I will immediately reorganize the army and horses, and lead the army in pursuit!"

King Zuogu Li also didn't want to delay, the sooner the food problem was solved, the sooner he would be relieved.

.......

At dusk.

King Zuogu Li temporarily decided to lead the headquarters of 100,000 elite cavalry to withdraw from the surrendered city, and the army retreated north.

Yan Xingjun sent about 30,000 elites of the Yan Department to enter the surrendered city and temporarily take over the city to resist the two Tang armies of Li Yucheng and Yuan Mingsha.

At this moment, the Tang army spies who stayed outside the surrendered city learned that the troops were dispatched in the surrendered city, and the king of Zuogu led the army out of the city.

More than ten spies rode horses to Fengzhou, Yunzhong, and the camps of Li and Yuan Er generals respectively to report the front-line military situation to Yang Yue, Luo Shishang and other generals.

At night, the north gate of Fengzhou City opened, and Guo Xiaocai led 50,000 flying cavalry troops to march in the night, and pursued and killed quickly, preparing to ambush in advance before the king of Zuogu led the army back to the grassland.

In the south of the surrender city, Li Yucheng led the 30,000 forbidden troops of the headquarters to march to the north, approaching the south gate of the surrender city at night, and the army attacked the city overnight.

Yuan Mingsha led 30,000 forbidden troops, passed through the narrow strip between Zhongshou Chengcheng and Shengzhou, and led his troops to pursue the Liwang Department of Zuogu non-stop.

Yang Yue's order to him was that not a single Turk should be allowed to return to the surrendered city alive.

How dare he take it lightly.

In the clouds, Luo Shishang led his army westward, preparing to attack the city of Dongshou.

According to Yang Yue's deployment, at least two of the three Turkic generals led their troops to chase and kill Lin Kaiyue and Zhang Shaoming.

Things didn't go as expected, but at least the Turks were lured out of the city.

He believed that Guo Xiaoqi and Yuan Mingsha led the army to chase and kill from south to north, Lin Kaiyue and Zhang Shaoming fought back, and the 100,000 elite cavalry of King Ligu of Zuogu would become a delicacy for the Tang army.

If all goes well, including the king of the left valley, I don't want to return to the city alive.

Moreover, Li Yucheng and Luo Shishang led the army to storm the surrendered city in the east, and the surrendered city in the middle, even if the king of Zuogu Li sent messengers back to ask for help, the elite of the Yan Department did not want to go out of the city.

Zuo Xian Wang's department, there are Nan Dao Ming, Zhao Xuanhu, Ye Qinghu two generals led the army to monitor, if he dares to act rashly, the three generals will lead the Tang army to eradicate Zuo Xian Wang's department.

If his arrangement is realized, before Yiran and Timur lead their troops, at least half of the 400,000 elite Turks in southern Xinjiang will be lost.

In this war, the Tang army will completely dominate, and the army will really penetrate into the steppe just around the corner.

Completely wipe out the Turks, erase their threat to the north of the Tang Dynasty, and turn from a dream into a reality.
