Chapter 208 Defining the Words of Yeshuali
Chapter 208 Yeyesulie's name is Dingfang
Yilulu City, a relatively prosperous Western Regions famous city, has now fallen into the sea of fire. The straw sheds or tents of the craftsmen's camp in the east of Tuqi Shihai were all lit by the Western Turks. In an instant, thick smoke rolled and the heat waves were surging.
Hundreds of corpses of Western Turkic Turkic cavalrymen fell to the ground in a mess. The city was in a mess. The Western Turkic cavalry, who were crying and screaming, kept searching for wealth and property, pressing the women of Iloru City to the ground, venting their original beasts and desires. However, Western women were very open to the concept of chastity, not to mention that relying on the strong to survive was their instinct.
Nowadays, the people in the eastern part of Tuqi Shihai were either beaten away or killed. The current owner here has become Ashinabuzhen. These women are very docile and cooperative, and have not encountered any incidents of seeking death.
The rows of prisoners in the eastern part of the Turkish Sea were tied up by Western Turkic soldiers and rushed to a dry lake outside the city of Yilulu. The valley bottom was simply a natural tomb. The lake bottom was as high as three or four feet deep. It was very difficult for three or four thousand prisoners to walk in. It was not even more, the prisoners in the eastern part of the sea had neither weapons nor their hands were tied, and they had no chance to resist at all.
Rows of captives all entered the bottom of the dry lake. With Ashinabuzhen's order, the Western Turkic cavalry raised their bows and arrows in their hands and threw the rain of arrows to the bottom of the lake. A shrill screamed, and the captives from the eastern seas cried and begged for mercy, but Ashinabuzhen turned a blind eye.
At this time, Ashinabu was in a very good mood. With the successful attack on Yilulu City, he seized more than 8 million kilograms of steel in Yilulu City, of which more than 3 million kilograms of fine steel can be made at least 100,000 sets of armor and tens of thousands of weapons. In addition to these steel, there is also a lot of wealth. The iron ore in Kuche Oasis is a copper-iron companion mine. Looking at more than 300,000 kilograms of copper ingots, Ashinabu really feels that his heart is a little uncontrollable.
Looking at the mountains of more than 300,000 jin of copper ingots, if these copper ingots are made into copper coins, there will be more than 400,000 jin, which is a very huge wealth.
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it..." Asunabu Zhen smiled gloomyly: "I didn't expect that He Luoshi's man is so rich. Before, Ben Khan recruited him 30,000 war horses, and he still complained about poverty. With these steel and copper coins, let alone 300,000 war horses, even 300,000 war horses can be bought!"
The Tukha Shisuogemohe tribe churns the strategy of Wuzhi, with clear eyebrows but vicious eyes, saying, "These 300,000 kilograms of copper ingots were discovered first by my people, and I will take the big head!"
The Hei-Eehu from the Tukhashi Ali Shichu sneered: "So what you discovered? If I hadn't sent cavalry up, you wouldn't know if you could fight! The big head belongs to me!"
Mouzhi was furious: "I'm the one with Hei, do you want to swallow my portion too, right?"
Hei'ehu said, "Who cares about your share? I just want to get the share I deserve!"
Strategy Wu Zhi said: "You..."
The tall and burly Ashi Nabuzhen said, "Don't argue, now is not the time to share the spoils! You don't think about it. Before you even go deep into the Western Regions, you have got so much steel and copper coins. How much grain should Jinmancheng be? How much steel should Huaergou be? Are you satisfied if you only grab such a little money?"
Asunabuzhen, the Western Turkic Khan, was supported by the five tribes of Tuqishi. Now He Lushi in the eastern part of the sea has rebelled. Originally, Asunabu really didn't have the courage to challenge Chen Ying, but seeing a mere Yilu City that actually had so much wealth, his heart began to swell.
Brother Milei frowned and asked, "Da Khan, do you mean we will continue to fight to Jinmancheng?
Ashinabuzhen smiled and said, "Yes. Brother Mile, Yilu City does have amazing wealth. Anyone who gets this money will be satisfied, but... we don't have much food, and there is food over Jinman City!"
As soon as this was said, everyone had nothing to say. In spring and summer, they were just visiting the son of Yehu Khan, the son of the Nobubi tribe, who elected the Nobubi tribe, to compete for the ranch. The two sides fought three or four battles, killing and injured tens of thousands of people. Not only did they suffer heavy losses, but they also missed the best opportunity to gain weight.
As the power of the Western Turks weakened, the four tribes that proclaimed themselves as Khan fought against each other. The vassal tribes that vassed the Western Turkic Khanate either escaped from the control of the Western Turkic Khanate, or took the opportunity to escape, losing the fertile pasture at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and the farmland of Shule was lost again. The people under their control had a difficult life, and their lives were also difficult.
In the past, it was enough to grab a few tribes, but now? They robbed many tribes, but they didn't find a few grains. Without food, no matter how much money they rob, it would be useless. Money cannot be eaten as food. If you can't find enough food before winter comes, and when the heavy snow in the Western Regions blocks the mountains, Chen Ying doesn't need to send troops to fight, they will die in the snow and ice in the Western Regions.
The money and steel that are robbed now can allow them to live a good life, and at the same time give them strong confidence and self-confidence. Thinking about the news brought back by Brother Milei, Jinmancheng not only has grain piled up like a mountain, but also tens of thousands of Han people. As long as they robbed Jinmancheng, they can become stronger immediately.
The marvel Wuzhi and Hei'ehu said at the same time: "Okay, let's continue to fight eastward and grab a batch of grain before coming back!"
Brother Milei said with some concern: "Great Khan, is it too risky to enter Jin Man? The officers and soldiers of the Tang Kingdom..."
The black-necked tiger snorted and interrupted Brother Milei and said, "The officers and soldiers of the Tang Kingdom are thousands of miles away. We will not take action for the time being. When they pass the Geluoling Valley, even if they grow wings, they will not fly back to Jinman City!"
In fact, what Hei'ehu said is right. Jinman City is more than 3,600 miles away from Shule City and more than 10,000 miles away from Chang'an. It usually takes ten days and half a month for the cavalry under Chen Ying's command, not to mention that the mountain is blocked with heavy snow. When Chen Ying receives the news and leads his army, they are probably gone.
Everyone Qijin laughed. Although Chen Ying did not come out of nothing, he only left nineteen Zhechong Mansion's troops, only 30,000 troops. This force sounded quite a lot, but the place where Guo Xiaoke, who stayed in the Western Regions, needed to defend was too big. From Yiwu in the east to Yecheng in the south to Mulan in the west to Mulei in the north, almost the entire Hexi, Hedong, Hebei and Shandong territory. With such a large territory, there were less than 30,000 troops, which was actually no different from not leaving a defensive force.
Just as Ashinabushi's troops were holding blood-stained weapons and heading eastward like ghosts and wolves howling, if you look from the air, there was also a huge army from the south Kucha direction, stepping on the rolling yellow sand and rushing towards the city of Ilolu.
After finally seizing such a combat mission, Su Ding would not pick up fat and thin. What's more, this battle would be the first battle of the Anxi Army's Western Expedition. Su Ding's side was even more worried that Ashinabu would run away, which was the biggest regret. The area of the Western Regions was too large. Even if Anxi Army dispersed the troops and formed a target of tying grass, Ashinabu Zhen also had the opportunity to pass through the gaps of the target.
Once Ashinabuzhen led his troops to leave Yiluo City and drilled into any valley or small oasis, Su Dingfang could not find them.
It was obvious that the Yue cavalry under Su Dingfang was already fast enough, but Su Dingfang was still dissatisfied and shouted from time to time: "Hurry, hurry, speed up, speed up, fuck faster!"
A general of the Yue cavalry smiled bitterly and said, "General Su, brothers can still hold on, but our horses can't hold on!"
Su Dingfang turned his head and looked around. As expected, he saw most of the war horses foaming at the mouth. It was already at the end of their strength. Su Dingfang grabbed the guide's collar and shouted: "Where is the water source nearby?"
The guide said timidly: "Five miles ahead of this, there is a small water park!"
"Lead the way forward, brothers, when we arrive at the small lake ahead, let's stop and get in a good state!"
The soldiers of the Yue cavalry cheered in unison.
Su Dingfang came to the so-called small lake and was so angry that he wanted to curse people. There were not many ponds dug out from Chen Ying's Chenjia Fort in Qinglin. The few ponds in Chen Ying's mansion also had more than 20 acres of land. However, this small lake only has a range of more than ten acres at most, which is less than the root of the thigh.
Fortunately, this is fresh water, and people can drink it.
Although the taste was very bad, no one cared. After all, it was good to encounter water in the desert. The soldiers of the Zhong'an West Army quickly ate dry food and took bean grain to add food to the war horses. After the sweat of the war horses was dry, they could feed the war horse water.
Before I knew it, it was getting dark, and the soldiers of the Yue cavalry consciously picked up their sleeping bags and fell asleep on the ground.
In the middle of the night, a noise sounded.
A scammer of the Yue cavalry hurriedly pushed Su Dingfang to wake up. Su Dingfang quickly got up and climbed up the watchtower built with a triangular shelf. Looking away, fire dragons appeared.
The fire dragon is still far away, at least ten miles, which is very chaotic, with one cluster in the east and one cluster in the west. Su Dingfang could swear that if the Anxi Army had such problems during the march, it would probably be necessary to squat in the small dark room from top to bottom.
The scout said: "There are more than ten thousand people, and they should be the vanguard of the Western Turks!"
Su Dingfang said: "I came well, I'm afraid they won't come!"
Then, Su Dingfang summoned all the generals and said, "Wait a minute, I will meet them. You decide according to the situation, seize the opportunity, and catch them all in one place!"
The generals felt that it was very unreliable. How could they act as the leader of the entire army directly as the suicide squad leader?
In fact, Su Dingfang was really such a person. The key is that his starting point was lower than Luo Shixin. In the 12th year of Daye, Luo Shixin was already a regiment-level officer who commanded thousands of people. However, in history, Su Dingfang was still a regiment-level officer until the fourth year of Zhenguan, six years later, and the leader of 200 cavalry was equivalent to a company-level officer.
Even though Chen Ying promoted Su Dingfang to command the 30,000 Yue Cavalry, he himself had not adapted to this change in his identity.
It was also a tragedy. Su Dingfang himself had not turned this corner. The key is that Anxi Army was Chen Ying's training method. Regardless of whether the boss was right or wrong, he had to execute the orders thoroughly. Even if there was a problem, it was Su Dingfang's problem.
According to Su Dingfang's order, he led a Yue cavalry soldier from Zhechong Mansion to quietly start the formation along the water pool.
The Western Turkic cavalry did not realize the danger at all. Instead, Ashinabu said in a sensible manner: "Chen Ying, the great protector of the Tang Dynasty, is really a talent. He can farm and make steel. It is very beneficial for the growth of our Great Turks. We have to think of a way to capture him alive. Isn't he the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty? Ben Khan has more than a dozen princesses under his knees. As long as he is willing to surrender to Ben Khan, Ben Khan appointed him as Sulu of our Great Turks (equivalent to the prime minister), and more than a dozen princesses can marry him..."
At this moment, Wu Zhi said, "What if he still disagrees?"
"Then you have to kill him!" Asunabushi said, "It can't be used by Ben Khan, what's the point of keeping it?"
As he was speaking, a row of neat torches suddenly lit up in front, followed by another row, and then another row! Each row of torches was neat, and Ashinabuzhen and others jumped for no reason! The Western Turkic cavalry in front of them were in chaos, some people retreated, and some yelled: "Tang people, Tang people! There are Tang people!..."
The changing tone made the team even more confused. Ashinabu knew that there was a change and rode his horse forward, just as he ran into a small team of Western Turkic cavalry and kept retreating. He stepped forward and shouted, "What's going on!"
A Turkic commander looked panicked and shouted: "There are Tang people in front, and Tang soldiers! Tang soldiers are waiting for us in front!"
Ashi Nabuzhen cursed angrily: "Aren't it just the Tang Dynasty soldiers? How many people scared them like this?"
After a while, Wu Zhi came back and reported, "Great Khan, there are more than 1,500 Tang soldiers in front of him!"
If there were 30,000 to 50,000 Tang troops, Ashinabu really did not have the courage and confidence to arrive, but when he heard that there were only 1,500 people, he was immediately happy. Ashinabuzhen smiled and said, "It is only 1,500 people, and we have 100,000 people, and each person can drown them with one spit. What are you afraid of! Don't call me again, and I'll kill you if I call me again!"
But when he rode his horse to the front, he could finally clearly see the Tang soldiers who had hair on their sides. After he dared to run to the wilderness to confront them in the middle of the night, he couldn't help but gasp!
More than 1,500 Tang cavalrymen were all wearing iron armor. Under the illumination of torches, the armor reflected cold light. He had seen the cavalry wearing armor before. The key was that these cavalry were lined up in an orderly manner. There were hundreds of cavalrymen holding spears, hundreds of them holding shields and knives in the other. There were hundreds of cavalrymen holding crossbows and bows, and the arrows were shining with cold light.
But for some reason, Ashinabu really felt like his hair was standing upside down!
At this moment, Su Dingfang rode his horse in front and shouted at the boundless Turkic cavalry: "Who are you? Get out of here!"
Listening to the translation of the tongue, Ashi's nose was almost crooked. Even a little bit of people dared to come over and act wildly. I really don't know how to write the word "death".
Ashin Buqiang suppressed his inner anger and stepped forward and asked, "I don't know which general you are!"
If Chen Ying came, even though there were only 1,500 people, he would have traveled as far as he could!
However, Su Dingfang said carelessly: "Listen, Yeyesulie, whose name is Dingfang, today will be your worship day next year!"
