Starting from Tingzhou, all the way to the north, but also with some siege baggage, the journey is slow, on the third day, into the Gobi Land, from the Khan Futu City is not far away, passing by a low gravel hills, Li Hao suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "The whole army stops." ”

Li Hao gave an order, the army slowly stopped, Li Hao turned over and dismounted, and walked up the gravel hill, only to see a large crack five feet long and three inches wide cracked on the stone mound, and black liquid overflowed between the cracks.

Li Hao stepped forward and squatted down, dipped his fingers in some black liquid, leaned in front of his nose and smelled it, and immediately grinned, and said happily: "Good baby, let me find you." ”

He walked around the hills for a long time, then turned back to the army and said loudly: "Spread the order of the commander-in-chief, the army will stop and camp in place!" ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Feiying was stunned for a while, and said, "Master Hou, there is still more than an hour before it gets dark, don't you continue to hurry?" ”

Li Hao smiled lightly and waved his hand: "No, camp and rest in place, everyone will start working tomorrow." As he spoke, he looked at the hills, his eyes full of brilliance.

Xue Rengui and Su Dingfang each took 10,000 troops to attack Qiuci and Agni, both of which are small countries, the reason why they dared to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty was completely to see that Tubo and the Western Turks had sent out heavy troops to attack the Tang Dynasty, and felt that they could take a large area of the Tang Dynasty and occupy half of Longyoudao, and from then on, the Western Regions returned to the Western Turks, so the Tang Dynasty was far away from Aqini and Qiuci, and it was with this idea that they had the courage to fish in troubled waters and want to make a fortune by the way, but it's a pity, Li Hao's outstanding military talent shattered their dreams, and now the intestines of the Agini and the king of Qiuzi are repentant, but there is no regret medicine in the world, Agini and Qiuzi sent envoys to surrender to the Tang army, all of them were reprimanded back by Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui, and the two small countries could only gather the troops of the whole country and prepare to face the battle.

The royal city of Agni and Qiuci is quite strong, but it is a pity that the combat power of their country is too weak, far inferior to Gaochang back then, no matter how strong the city is, if the defender of the city is a group of waste, then everything is empty talk, Xue Rengui spent seven days to lead the troops to Qiuci, and it only took two days to capture the city of Qiuci King, and the king of Qiuci knelt in the palace and surrendered.

It took Su Dingfang six days to reach Agni and three days to capture the royal city of Agni, and the king of Agni wanted to escape and was captured by Su Dingfang.

Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui attacked soft persimmons, and basically won a complete victory without wasting much effort, and then, they each left 5,000 troops to guard Ajuni and Qiuzi, and then led their troops back to Tingzhou.

When Su Dingfang captured Agni, Li Hao had already come to the Khan Attached Map City, the specifications of the Khan Futu City were similar to Tingzhou, and even a little smaller than Tingzhou, Li Hao was now under the city, and the city walls were full of enemy troops, waiting for the battle.

Li Hao did not rush to attack the city, but sent troops to surround Sanque Yi, camped four miles outside the Khan Futu City, and let the soldiers eat and rest in broad daylight, because he was preparing for a night battle.

In the evening, the horn sounded in the Tang military camp, and more than thirty small catapults were pushed out, and they stopped more than a mile away from the city of Khan Futu, and then, countless wooden barrels were transported to the catapults, these were wooden barrels for wine, and the top of each barrel had a mouth the size of a wine glass, which was originally used for pouring wine, usually stuffed with cork, but now these mouths were not corked, but stuffed with cloth towels.

Looking at the torches in the Tang army below, it seemed that they were frequently deploying troops, and they could vaguely see that catapults were dispatched, and the Western Turkic armies in the city rushed to the city, ready to fight, but after waiting for a long time, they did not see the Tang army attack.

"Master Hou, everything is ready!" Flying Eagle reported to Li Hao.

Li Hao nodded and said, "Turn on the catapult, put these wooden barrels in the net pocket, light the cloth and throw them." ”

"Yes!" The Eagle immediately took the command flag and went to deliver the order.

Thirty catapults started slowly, with wooden barrels in barbed wire pockets, and then the soldiers were seen to use torches to light the cloth catties that plugged the mouths of the barrels, and these catties burned when they caught fire, apparently sprinkled with oil.

The sound of the hammer striking the spring came, and then I saw countless flames draw a long arc in the sky, cross the city, fly over the heads of the Western Turkic army, and fall into the city, and the Western Turkic army still looked up and looked at it, feeling so beautiful, like a meteor.

Li Hao also felt that this picture was very similar to meteors in the sky, but he knew that although these "meteors" were beautiful, they were very deadly, and he wanted to use very cruel methods to take this Khan Futu City.

"Boom! Boom ......" suddenly there was an explosion in the city, and then I saw the flame light burning from the city, and the Western Turkic army at the head of the city was stunned, what did the Tang army throw in? For they stood on top of the city and saw it clearly, and those things fell into the city and did not explode, and there were fires everywhere.

Li Hao saw the sky-high fire in the city, and sighed faintly: "Oil...... What a baby. ”

That's right, what these barrels contain is oil, what Li Hao found on the gravel hills is oil, and it is an oil mine floating on the surface of the earth's crust, although the reserves are not large, but it is also for the large oil mines with reserves of tens of thousands of tons or even hundreds of thousands of tons, and the amount of oil that Li Hao needs, a few tons is enough.

After more than a hundred wooden barrels filled with stones were thrown into the city, the entire Khan Futu City had fallen into a sea of fire, the city was full of screams and wails, and the army guarding the city was scorched by the fire, but could not get out of the city, some people couldn't stand it anymore, so they lowered the rope from the city, and some people were so anxious that they jumped directly outside the city wall, it was better to fall to death than to be burned to death, but there were still 10,000 Tang troops outside the city, so these people all became prisoners without exception.

Li Hao used technology beyond this era to fight a super victory, overnight, without spending a single soldier, talking and laughing, the city was in ashes, the day was dawn, the fire in the city was still burning, and there was a burning feeling within miles around.

At this moment, 10,000 captives of the Western Turks were gathered five miles south of the city, staring blankly at the Khan Futu City that was still in the sea of fire, their hearts were full of fear, and they still did not understand what the Tang army threw into their city, the fire in the sky, like a beast from hell, swallowed a city at once.

Next, Li Hao began to enclose the territory, leading the troops all the way to the west, once he encountered the nomadic tribes of the Western Turks, they were all defeated, and then captured, as long as the place where his war horse had stepped on, it was the territory of the Tang Dynasty from now on.

Traveling all the way to the west, he encountered many nomadic tribes, and Li Hao also gained a lot, obtaining countless cattle and sheep, and the number of prisoners also increased sharply to nearly 20,000.

Finally, on the seventh day, Li Hao's army stopped, because the Tianshan Mountains were ahead, Li Hao knew that on the back of the Tianshan Mountains was Gelsa, this time Gelsa was very well-behaved and did not take advantage of the fire to rob, so don't scare them, looking at the stretching Tianshan Mountains, Li Hao said quietly: "Almost, counting the Khan Futu City, there are almost thousands of miles of territory, come here!" Erect a boundary monument! ”

An order, immediately there are many soldiers carrying a large stone tablet more than one person high, and then excavate the soil, set up a stele, the inscription on the stele is made by Li Hao, the craftsman in the army inscribed on behalf of the inscription, the content is: "The Tang Dynasty Boundary Monument, east of this boundary, are all Tang soil, you and other foreign countries, do not offend, if you look up to the Chinese civilization, you can come to the dynasty with piety, dare to try to Tang every inch of land, will destroy its clan, there is a crime against my Tang Tianwei, although far away will be punished!" In the seventeenth year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, Li Shifang erected a monument here to alert all nations. ”

When the boundary monument was erected, the army looked at the solemn stone monument and the arrogant inscription on it, which added a bit of pride and solemnity.

Li Hao stood in front of the boundary monument, stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the inscription on the monument, and was silent for a long time.

Ma Zhou slowly walked up from the rear, stood beside Li Hao, looked at the inscription for a long time, and sighed with a smile: "In ancient times, Dou Xian attacked the Huns in the north, Le Shi Yanran, and now there is Li Shimad Tianshan Monument, which is powerful and powerful, and you have no regrets in this life." ”

The corners of Li Hao's mouth were raised, he smiled indifferently, looked at the vast land around him, and said proudly: "From now on, how big the territory of Datang is, it is up to me Li Hao to decide!" ”

Ma Zhou was shocked when he heard this, Li Hao's words were very crazy, too crazy, but Ma Zhou didn't think Li Hao was arrogant, because he knew that Li Hao had the qualifications to say this, Li Hao's words can make people's blood boil, Ma Zhou even regretted a little why he didn't study martial arts well when he was young, so that he could open up territory for the Tang Dynasty like Li Hao, make immortal achievements, and not come to this world in vain, as a boy should be.
