When Li Kuan led the cavalry army hurriedly, just as the few refugees who fled said, Nuozhen Fruit was really occupied by Xue Yantuo's army. His complexion suddenly became cold, and he sent a spy to investigate the situation. The man returned after about an hour.
"General, according to the final observation, the enemy has thousands of troops, all of them are cavalry!" Li Kuan lowered his head and thought, these people should be Xue Yantuo cavalry, but only a few thousand people surprised Li Kuan and motioned him to continue. "According to the final calculation, the enemy army should have just arrived not long ago, and hastily searched without any rectification, and is currently busy with munitions arrangements."
Li Kuan nodded, then looked at the other people, "The result of your investigation?"
"There is no trace of any enemy troops in the final exploration of the upper reaches!" As one of them spoke, the other two nodded in agreement. After preliminary investigation by the four, Li Kuan knew that this thousands of cavalry must have arrived in a hurry over a long distance. This is them. Good opportunity to attack.
If starting from Yanran Mountain to Nuozhen Water, the road along the way is rugged and blocked by wind and snow, even they came out to investigate the situation after the snow stopped, and Li Kuan concluded that these people must have been rushing when they learned that their army had changed. If you can come here quickly, you must come here in the wind and snow, absolutely tired and tired, plus what you just raided nearby.
Li Kuan did not send anyone back to ask the Generalissimo for instructions. He immediately made a decision: "Pass our military order and attack the enemy immediately. Fei Lian and Liao Fan each led 700 people to kill from the left and right sides. I personally led the remaining troops from Attack from the front, when you disperse the enemy camp, you will make another move, and remember not to miss one person. Let's give them a left-to-right attack today, so that they have no return, and I can retreat!"
"Nuo!" Fei Lian and Liao Fan took the orders, and each led more than 700 people to leave first, attacking the enemy from the left and right sides.
At the same time, the cavalry general of Xue Yantuo sighed in the tooth tent, his face full of sadness. Originally, more than half of the 10,000 cavalrymen died halfway, and the remaining cavalry force was not enough to disturb the Tang army. If the main force of the Tang army swarmed up, they would not be able to escape.
Now they are stationed on the Hezhou. In terms of direction, they are backed by the lake, so there is no need to worry about the enemy's surprise attack from the rear. The only thing that needs to be guarded is the left side and the front, and the right side is for them to flee back. route.
At this moment, he has no time to reorganize the army. They have long lost their will when they are exhausted. Even his general is exhausted, and now he is replenishing his strength and heating. Just as he was thinking about how to deal with it, a miserable scream came from outside the tent.
"Is it an enemy attack?"
He was horrified in his heart, and hurriedly picked up the weapon and rushed out of his teeth, just to see Tang Jun killed from the front. Li Kuan held the Minghong knife like a god of death, cruelly slaughtering his own soldiers. The soldiers had just arrived in Nuozhenshui. During the rest and reorganization, he was attacked by the enemy, and he was scared a long time ago, and he was not an imposing Tang army opponent at all.
Liao Fan led seven hundred people to fight out from the left, merged with Li Kuan, rammed straight into the enemy’s tooth tent, and no matter who he encountered, he raised his weapon and killed him without hesitation. In a blink of an eye, Tang Jun had already killed him out of his teeth. He was so frightened that he had no intention of fighting. Without a word, he rode a horse and fled from the right side. When the other soldiers saw the general ran away, how could they dare to resist and throw away their armor Escaped from the right.
Fei Lian led the seven hundred people, not to mention that they were all god archers. Most of them were unpredictable. They did not hesitate to draw bows and shoot arrows. He relentlessly harvested and escaped the soldiers’ lives. Instead of shooting cold arrows from behind, they blocked the way and shot the enemy. .
Suddenly, those Turkic cavalry who fled were ashamed. The first group of people who fled were shot to death, and the second group was also killed by 70%. Those who survived abandoned their weapons and surrendered and dared not fight again. Even the common people can only surrender with their hands.
Because they want to survive, how dare to resist the threat of death!
Under the combined attack of Li Kuan and Liao Fan, the enemy’s four thousand cavalry soldiers were killed in half, and more than a thousand people were injured. Even the enemy generals were shot to death. They had long wanted to lose their generals. Rebelled, and directly surrendered without any hesitation.
Originally, Li Kuan thought that the raid would encounter stubborn resistance. In the end, he found out that he was wrong. These cavalrymen had long lost their fighting spirit. They were like lambs to be slaughtered and let them be killed. Life and death were all controlled by them. This is Li. Wide unexpected things.
"Where is your general?" Li Kuan glanced, and finally there were so few people who could speak Mandarin. The man tremblingly pointed at the man who fell to the ground with an arrow and said: "He is!"
Li Kuan was also stunned. Unexpectedly, this time the harvest was so great, how dare they conceal the slightest bit of information at this time, and answer all questions. Li Kuan also knew from them why this victory was so easy. It was completely unexpected. After a long journey, more than half of the troops died. They were exhausted physically and mentally. They had long wanted to fight against the rampant Tang Jun.
They encountered this raid before they could digest the food they had just picked up from the nearby tribes. May I ask who is still in the mood to resist? Don't talk about loyalty for the country at this time. Survival is the most important thing. As for loyalty, they have long been left behind, let alone bloody fighting.
After asking Li Kuan, he also knew that Xue Yantuo's department had taken precautions a long time ago, and when he asked if there were other enemy troops along the way, everyone didn't know, but this time the cavalry died so many, Li Kuan was not only a little embarrassed. If they were all present, not only would the raid be unsuccessful, there would be countless deaths and injuries, and it would even be possible that he would have to stumble.
"I beg the general to wait for my life, I am willing to return to Datang!" As one person knelt on the icy and damp snow, others knelt down and begged for mercy one after another, the biting chill spread from knees to the whole body, shaking unceasingly. , The more fearful than cold is death.
"I will spare you by telling everything you know!"
Li Kuan yelled and glanced at the enemy soldiers kneeling on the ground with cold eyes. To be merciful to the enemy is to be cruel to himself. These soldiers in front of him are not guilty of death, but he is not a saint. The battle between the two armies is inevitable. As soon as the war is imminent, these prisoners are worthless and don't mind killing them all, and leaving them to settle is also a problem. It is impossible to leave instability in one's camp. This war is of great importance and there must be no omissions.
They looked at the killing intent on Li Kuan's face without any hesitation. They rushed to beg for mercy. Li Kuan directly interrogated the information about Ya Ting and their route this time. After two full hours, they finally rectified.
At the same time, Li Daozong also received a good news from Li Kuan and immediately led the army. The soldiers are extremely fast, so you can't hesitate at this time. When Li Kuan learned from the captives and reported it to Li Daozong, he was also very surprised. Although the level of these people is not enough and they don't know much, but the terrain and military strength of their country are still very clear, and this is one of the intelligence they need most.
