Eagle, also known as Eagle. "Shuowen" says: There is a bird in the south called Qiang Eagle, with yellow head and red eyes, and all five colors are available.

The Khitans raise falcons, and some in the Tang army also raise falcons, but they have never been as fierce and handsome as the Khitans. After all, the taming of birds of prey requires generational accumulation, and it is not possible to succeed immediately if you want to keep them.

It was not until someone from the Western Regions gave out Lingjiu that the Tang army in Tiance had tied with Khitan in this regard.

At this moment, a pair of young spirit vultures pecked on the shelf beside Zhang Mai.

The youngest son of Lingjiu is by Zhang Mai's side, but their parents follow the man Zhang Mai cares about the most and travel thousands of miles away.

—————————————————

Winter has not arrived yet, but there are extremely dangerous snow-capped mountains in front of you!

“Is this road correct?”

Ding Hanshan was sure of what he was originally, but now he has become a little unsure.

This road was achieved by fifty kilograms of gold from the chief of a wild tribe. Then, elite camps were sent to conduct on-site investigations. More than twenty brothers died, half of whom were brothers from Lingxi! Whenever they thought of this, Ding Hanshan's heart would be bleeding.

Even so, the cost along the way is still huge.

The efforts along the way far exceeded Ding Hanshan's imagination.

However, Yang Yi's eyes remained firm.

At this moment, a spirit vulture appeared in the air!

When Ding Hanshan saw the spirit vulture, he felt as if a person wandering on the edge of hell. When he saw the Buddha's light that the Bodhisattva had saved all the hungry ghosts, he couldn't help but burst into tears!

"Finished...find!"

The rear of Khitan. Zhenzhou.

Yelu Lihu looked at the uneasy Xiao Han and said unhappily: "Why, are you still worried about victory or defeat? Humph! Three or five times the strength of the troops is fighting in the local area. If you lose to Shiba like this, then he will find a piece of cow dung to bury himself!"

"From the forces that the Tang army has already thrown out, the sect will win!" Xiao Han said: "But with such forces, we are going straight to the Longting in Mobei... It's too risky. If it were Yang Yi, I would feel very natural, but why did Shi Ba come? I suspect that Zhang Mai has the back."

"What's the matter behind? That Zanhua has come out, what other conspiracies can there be?"

"Conspiracy is not scary..." Xiao Han said: "Cha Chu is going to take the path of a dignified attack and a decisive battle on the front. Don't be afraid of conspiracy."

"If you are not afraid of conspiracy, what are you afraid of!" Yelu Lihu said: "Are you still afraid of ambushing soldiers? Don't forget that this is Mobei, not the Central Plains. If the Tang army has ambushing soldiers... unless it falls from the sky!"

Xiao Han nodded and his face relaxed a lot: "No, right... there is no ambush unless... falls from the sky."

Yelu Lihu suddenly smiled again: "However, when it comes to strategies, not only Tangren can use them."

"What's the meaning?"

Yelu Lihu smiled and said, "Since I have decided to take action, I won't sit there. Do you remember that Yelu Antuan had stayed under my hands, so..."

“So what?”

"So I sent someone to send him a letter." Yelu Lihu smiled, and this smile made him, who was once named the Grand Marshal of the Khitan Army, regain a little pride.

———————

Yelucha ceded Yelu's enemy to hunt. He dragged Murong Yang with two hundred cavalry teams, and another 15,000 besieged Wolluduo City. He trapped Yeluru Ruan and ambushed five thousand cavalry along the way waiting for Chai Rong. However, these are just episodes. His purpose is not here. Even if Yeluru Ruan does not go to Wolluduo City, even if Chai Rong does not set off, he will still advance. There is only one thing that can stop him - Shiba and Zanhua's heads.

However, Yelu Chache had not taken action yet. Although he saw the Buddha's cart, he had not seen the big flag drawn by the iron beast stone.

More than 100,000 cavalry suddenly appeared, 20,000 of them rushed out, cutting off the southern route of the Tang army. Under the afterglow of the sun, there were Hu horses south of the Ulu Valley River. Thousands of cavalry slowly entered like forests, and were hiding at the northeast exit of this "half-encircled and half-dead place".

The remaining 80,000 people rushed over like a tide.

Shiba was not in a hurry. He ordered the spear formation to advance into defense and blocked the outermost periphery. The auxiliary troops arranged the formation on the spot and arranged the traps. The three squads of the Longxiang Iron Armor Army fell to the ground to make meals and rest on the spot.

The night had already fallen, and the Khitans lit torches, and more than 50,000 torches were moving. Looking under the night sky, it looked like falling stars.

Shibazhong's army had only 16,500 people, only 20,000 people came to join the troops, and Baye's army had only 5,000 cavalry. All the people and horses were less than half of the opponent. Seeing that this battle was outnumbered, the Tang army was in absolute weakness in terms of the elite or the number comparison!

Baye was also afraid of this.

Shiba sniffed it with his nose, as if a hunting dog could smell a dangerous smell.

Then, he ordered: "Stay on the spot and wait for the day!"

Then he ran to the outermost spear formation and fell asleep.

That night, the Khitan did not attack!

————————————

Li Bin left Shiba left and right, carried by four soldiers, and came toward the Buddha's carriage. Zanhua came out to meet him. Li Bin said, "Does the master have any ideas in the battle?"

Zanhua smiled slightly and said, "Five days ago, I had seen the dedication of the spirit vulture. I guess the day when the eagle rose is not far away. Governor Shi was firm in his heart and determined in fighting spirit. Now he only sees whether we can break through. If we break through, it is a achievement. If we can't break through, it is Nirvana."

Li Bin bowed and bowed on the cart and said, "The master is indeed well-versed. The marshal may not have told the master all the things, but the master seems to have guessed one or two. Although the master is from Khitan, he has already obtained the wonderful truth of my Buddha than the one below."

Zanhua smiled and said, "In the eyes of the Buddha, all living beings are equal, and ants are no different from others, let alone the Hu Han? There are no Khitans in this world, the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Bin said: "No matter who wins and who loses this battle, it will inevitably be famous in history. It's a pity that this place is unknown."

Zan Hua smiled and said, "Mr. Li is well-versed in literature and history, so how do you name this place?"

Li Bin laughed and said, "Okay!" He pointed to the Gobi Desert that blocked the Tang Army's way to the west and said, "Just call it Nirvana Gobi."

Zan Huazan said, "Good name!"

This night was so long.

"Detailed and stable, aren't you still attacking?" Yan Sage said with great pleasure.

"Don't move tonight!" Yelu Cha said, "Shit the front army to beat the drums! Let the enemy not rest. The middle army and the rear army have a good rest. When the sunrise tomorrow, the iron beast's death is the time for death!"

The torches on the Khitan side were as dark as stars, but the Tang army was pitch black. The Khitan drums were beating, and the spear formations were drawn, Yelu Antuan’s troops, and when they came to the Hu troops, they were shocked every night.

At the third update, the auxiliary troops completed the formation preparation. The spear formation retreated thirty steps. They set up the sleeping Shiba and retreated fifty steps. When he was put down, Shiba woke up and asked, "What's the update?"

Hu Zhen replied: "It's the third update."

Shi Ba asked, "Have we done our formation? How many times did the Khitan attack us?"

Hu Zhen said: "The formation has been completed, but the Khitan did not attack, but only beat seven drums. The soldiers of the army were inexplicably surprised and could not fall asleep."

Shi Ba cursed: "No prospect!"

At this time, Shi Jian came over and asked, "Who are you scolding?"

Shi Ba cursed: "I scolded Yelu Cha for being useless. If he dared to attack him overnight, maybe my head would be obtained. I even scolded those guys who couldn't sleep for being useless, and they were scared like this after a few rounds of drums!"

He asked again: "How many people fell asleep?"

Hu Zhen said: "The former governor's 500 Iron Beast soldiers, all of them were sleeping soundly."

In the battle of Handala River Valley, the elite Iron Beasts were already quite a loss, but Shi Ba immediately selected warriors from the orphan army to supplement it, and still made up for the 500. The selected were all the dead soldiers of the orphan army who survived the death battle. They were extremely fierce and quickly integrated into the atmosphere under the leadership of the elite Iron Beasts veterans. Therefore, the combat power of the five hundred Iron Beasts did not decrease at all.

Shi Ba laughed and said, "Okay!" He pointed at Shi Jian and said, "Brother, why don't you sleep?"

Shi Jian said: "The military advisor behind gave this place a name. It is called Nirvana Gobi, I'll tell you."

Shi Ba smiled and said, "You are more bored than me! Well, you are here just right. Now the army is temporarily handing over to you. I will kill a few Khitan kids. If you don't come back, you can prepare for Nirvana."

Shi Jian was slightly surprised: "You are going out now? You are the commander of the First Army, how can you take risks!"

Shi Ba's face slightly darkened and he whispered: "The situation is not good now. Except for a thousand people who are not afraid of death, all the whole army are afraid. Humph, even the military advisor is like this in his heart. He is actually a little afraid. What is the name of Nirvana and Gobi? Isn't Nirvana mean death? Unlucky! So we have to have a victory!"

Shi Jian said: "But..."

Shi Ba waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I can't die. When it's really dangerous, my eyelids will twitch, but now I'm very sure, it's OK."

He is happy to do things by intuition, and Shi Jian knows it.

At this moment, the Qiang flute sounded, and someone sang with the sound of the flute. He felt very compassionate and desolate. Shiba couldn't understand it, so he called Hu Zhen to ask him. Hu Zhen said Gao Shi's poem at this time, and said poetry again. Shiba listened again and saw that he was singing:

In November, the border town is raining and snowing.

Yuanrong's orders were strict, and his troops were light and fat.

The Qiang and Hu people have endless days, when will the battle return?

Poetry is naturally a good poem, and Gao Shi is Zhang Mai’s favorite poet. Zhang Mai likes it, and Shi Ba naturally likes it.

But at this time, when he heard "when will the war return?" Shi Ba's face darkened again and said to Shi Jian: "The Marshal's decision is right! This time, the conditions were not ripe for the north of the desert to sweep the north, but the Marshal still decided to take risks. Many people in the country did not understand. I didn't understand either, but I just thought that since it was the Marshal's decision, it must be right. But now I really understand, the Marshal is right!"

He listened to Qiang Di and snorted, "When will the battle be returned? The real battle of dead people has not yet begun, and he wants to go back! Our territory is bigger, more soldiers, and more country is stronger, but some people in the army are starting to soften! Hum!"

Seeing Shi Ba's face change, Hu Zhen said anxiously: "I'll stop that person!"

"No need!" Shi Ba said: "The military orders that speak empty words are useless. Could it be that I executed the man because he played the flute? You have to use blood to arouse the death aura in the general!"

Shiba also called Hu Zhen: "Wake up all my five hundred sleeping tigers and follow me to eat meat!"

————————————

The night was very quiet, and the sound of the flute spreads from afar.

Yelu Cha got up at night, heard the sound of the flute, laughed and said to Yansage: "Mobei is fine!"

"Why?" asked Synsa Ge.
