Shan Yu Du Hu Mansion, South Gate.

The south gate slowly closed again, like a monstrous beast closing its mouth.

Li Wei, Li Yuan, and Cui Chengxiu led their troops to kill them from three sides, and converged at the south gate after the last one.

"Report to the general, his subordinates are incompetent, let Li Siyuan and Li Sizhao escape with a thousand horses." The fifth lieutenant of the Flying Eagle Battalion came forward and said guiltily.

Li Wei glanced at the situation at the south gate, and there were corpses everywhere in front of the city gate, both from the Shatuo people and the Zhenguo army. Looking at the way they fell, you can see how fierce the battle was here before, and some soldiers even held the spear of the enemy into their bodies tightly with one hand before they died, and then stabbed the spear in the other hand into the enemy's chest, and died with the enemy.

Although this battle was an ambush, they were only 3,000 people, and 3,000 ambushed 3,000, and this battle did not have much advantage. The Shatuo people reacted quickly, almost as soon as they broke into the city. As soon as the Zhenguo army closed the net, the enemy cavalry had already begun to break through.

"Whatever the reason, it's really your responsibility to fail to close the South Gate in time." Li Wei dismounted and picked up his old subordinates, looked at the many Shatuo people who were still desperately resisting in the streets and alleys, and said in a deep voice: "However, I will now give you a chance to atone for your sins, I will hand over the Thousand Horsemen of the Flying Eagle Battalion to you, and you are responsible for staying behind to clean up the Shatuo people in the city." ”

After speaking, Li Wei, Li Yuan, and Cui Chengxiu will take nearly 2,000 people out of the city. Xiang Li Sizhao and other Shatuo defeated soldiers chased and killed.

At this time, the Shatuo camp thirty miles away had become a hell on earth.

Li Siyuan: Soon after they left with the 3,000 cavalry they were guarding. It was nearly dusk. The scout rangers of the Tang Army had already been found near the Shatuo camp. Those Tang cavalry wearing fiery red robes and waving the red red flag roared horizontally, probing the situation on all sides of the camp.

Hearing this news, Liu initially thought that the sentinels in the Shan Yu Mansion had discovered them. She immediately sent the armed young men of her family, and sent a team of ten hundred men to ride forward to hunt down the sentinels.

But after this thousand young people sent out, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no more news.

After nightfall, the people who sent Lu did not return for a long time, and Liu finally realized an extremely bad possibility. Those sentinels are not only in the city. It's the other Don Ride. At this time, in addition to the Zhenwu army, it could only be the chasing soldiers from Hedong.

As if to confirm her suspicions, soon after, groups of Tang cavalry reappeared around the temporary camp, and they held on to the battle flags and roared past, and attacked the camp in multiple directions.

It was just a makeshift camp, with no fences, no horse rejection, and no deer's feet. They all thought that there was no problem in winning the order to the Duhu Mansion, and they were not prepared to spend the night here. I'm just going to take a break, and then I'm going to enter the Shan Yu Protector Mansion. None of their luggage tents have been unloaded. In the case of Tang Qi's sudden killing, the Shatuo people were defenseless.

Although Liu saw that the young men who had been sent out had not returned, he had already ordered the accompanying cars to be set up outside the camp, but the camp of tens of thousands of people was not prepared in a hurry.

When the Tang cavalry came killing more and more from all directions, this team, which was almost all women, girls, children and old people, could only rely on thousands of young men and women with simple iron swords, spears, bows and arrows to meet the enemy.

Although the Shatuo people are brave and strong, and everyone is a warrior, they hold rudimentary weapons and have no orderly command, and in this dark night, their will to fight is extremely weak.

The banner of the Zhenguo Army appeared, and before it was only a team attacking the battalion, now, under the crimson banner of the Zhenguo Army, a thousand-man cavalry unit appeared.

Li Jing was dressed in a gilded red lacquer Qilin Mountain Wen battle armor, phoenix wings, a long golden cloak, a golden sword hanging from his waist, a jade sword on his back, and two pairs of bows hanging on his saddle. Behind him, six disciples guarded left and right, murderous.

After the battle of Shanyang City, Li Jing's soldiers and horses only rested for one day, and he judged that the Shatuo people were likely to abandon Shuozhou and flee. There are only three ways for the Shatuo people to escape, and the current situation is nothing more than the white road in the west, the green slope in the north of Yunzhong, and the flying fox road in the south and then the army out of the stopper. There are 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Tang army stationed on this side of the Qingpo Road, so the enemy only has two ways to go.

If you have judged the escape route of the enemy and the man, then the next thing will be easy to do. Later, Li Jing proposed that the troops could be divided into multiple ways to deal with the Shatuo people. First of all, Li Jing mobilized the 15,000 Zhenguo troops in Yunzhou and Ulzhou to move to the Huanghualiang area northeast of Shuozhou, and set up an ambush there to prevent the Shatuo people from escaping in the other two directions, or from making a detour.

In addition, the soldiers and horses of the remaining seven towns were divided into two parts, and the cavalry of the five tribes was alone, and they kept an eye on the large army of the Shatuo people. There is only one task, to follow them to the death, to stick to them, to drag them down. The infantry of the Seven Towns followed suit, responsible for recovering and occupying Jincheng, Sangang and Four Towns, which were abandoned by the Shatuo people, and purging the remaining Shatuo people, never giving the Shatuo people a chance to come back. Afterwards, except for a part of the troops and horses left to defend the cities, the rest of the infantry followed the route of the cavalry in front.

Li Jing, on the other hand, led the 5,000 cavalry of his headquarters to enter Yunzhou first, crossed the Purple River from the side of the Jingbian Army, and then rushed all the way to Shan Yu Duhufu to intercept it. In short, this time we must outflank and intercept it, and never give the Shatuo people the slightest chance.

Although Li Siyuan's vanguard set off earlier than Li Jing, they did not leave fast with tens of thousands of family dependents. However, Li Jing's 5,000 cavalry rode north, day and night. When Li Jing arrived at Shan Yu Duhufu, Li Siyuan had not yet arrived. After knowing that Li Siyuan's tens of thousands of horses would arrive immediately, Li Jing immediately asked General Li Weisan to divide his troops into 3,000 horses to enter the Shan Yu Duhu Mansion, and used the plan of Shanyang City again.

When Tanma reported that Li Siyuan and Li Sizhao with 3,000 cavalry were already attacking Shan Yu Duhufu, he immediately immediately sent several teams of scout cavalry to deliberately appear outside the Shatuo camp, leading out a thousand horsemen from Shatuo. After this Qianshatuo people left the camp, they chased for more than ten miles and entered Li Jing's ambush circle and directly annihilated them.

After interrogating the captives, Li Jing didn't expect that there were a few big fish in the Shatuo camp, and Li Guochang and Li Keyong's wife Liu were actually in the camp.

Taking down one Li Guochang is greater than killing 10,000 Shatuo cavalry. Hearing this news, Li Jing has decided that he must find a way to catch Li Guochang this time. Liu Xun offered a plan, first sent a thousand cavalry as a team to attack the Shatuo people in all directions, and let the tens of thousands of Shatuo collapse first. Disperse them first, and then drive away the Shatuo people, at this time, important people like Li Guochang and Liu must have gathered a lot of soldiers and horses around them, and at that time, they can be easily found, and then the remaining 1,000 cavalry will directly kill them and capture them alive.

This is indeed a good way, after all, it is not easy to find one among tens of thousands of horses. But with Liu Xun's method, it can indeed be well distinguished.

Under the siege and surprise attack of a thousand cavalry on all sides, the Shatuo people were completely taken by surprise, and they only resisted for less than a moment and really blew up the camp. This vanguard force was only guarded by Li Siyuan's 3,000 elite cavalry, and the rest was only Liu from these people, who were simply armed with 5,000 young people on the road, and these 5,000 young people were not all Shatuo people, there were Shatuo people, there were Sogdians, Turks, Hui people, and even Han people who had been under the control of the Li clan in Daibei. They have lived on the border for a long time, and they are all brave, but no matter how brave they are, they are not soldiers. They have rudimentary weapons and good individual skills, but they are amateurs in war. Lacking experienced officers, these people have no orders, no one to command, they are out of ground, and people's hearts are fluctuating.

In a moment, the soldiers could not find the generals, the generals could not find the soldiers, the command was completely chaotic, some teams carried knives and guns and only cared about pursuing Tang Cai, some were holding their heads and running around, and some were standing in place full of confusion.

The cavalry of the 1,000-town national army was scattered into dozens of teams, and the groups, like wolves on the grassland in the dark, were constantly wandering outside the camp, looking for opportunities. As soon as he found an opportunity, he immediately rushed up, surrounded him from all directions, outflanked and killed in front of him and intercepted in the rear, and in an instant he had already broken through the simple defense line of the car formation, which could no longer be simple, and entered the interior of the camp.

Then, like a piece of red-hot iron, easily cut in that butter, bows and crossbows were fired, swords and spears were staggered, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, and more like a farmer harvesting wheat, harvesting the heads of the Shatuo people in patches, charging back and forth, turning all the people killed by the Shatuo team who tried to gather and counterattack on their backs and running in all directions.

The red battle flags are like the urging stickers of the king of Hades, and wherever the banners go, the Shatuo people will collapse.

In less than half an hour, tens of thousands of people in the Shatuo camp were completely frightened, and at this time began to flee in all directions.

Liu, with the sword guards and some young people, is still holding on to the camp, but unfortunately her voice is hoarse, but no one gathers on her side.

At this moment, I saw countless fires in the east, and a cavalry with torches snaking like a fire dragon came up. The first shot was the handsome flag of Li Jing, the commander of the Zhenguo Army, who had repeatedly given heavy losses to the Shatuo people. At this moment, no matter how dull the person is, he understands that the Tang Army's pursuers have been killed. Panic and fear arose, and countless people screamed, abandoning their armor and fleeing. You hugged me and squeezed, people trampled on horses, and there were countless deaths and injuries. The thousands of young men who had barely gathered in the camp ran away in an instant. Liu and Li Guochang's respective personal soldiers saw that the defeat was decided at this time, and they didn't know how many cavalry the national army in Ludao Town had arrived, but just looking at the other party's torches, the soldiers and horses were no less than five thousand, and they immediately shouted, and the guards of their respective masters were wrapped in the chaotic army, and in a blink of an eye, they scattered and fled, and disappeared.
