Within ten days, Yelu Abaoji received news of the army's defeat in Huairong and Juyongguan. Unable to restrain his inner anger, Yelu Abaoji kicked out the great monk of Guizhou who had returned the military favor in front of everyone. .
Looking at the miserable appearance of the other party vomiting blood and flying backwards, it can be seen that life and death are unpredictable after receiving this kick.
Facing Yelu Abaoji who was in a rage, everyone in the tent lowered their heads, pretending that it was none of my business and don't bother me, no one dared to face the opponent's anger directly.
When Yelu Abaoji calmed down a little, everyone dared to raise their heads one after another, peeking at each other's expressions while thinking about the current situation.
"Yelüxienechi was defeated in Guizhou, and his crimes cannot be punished. However, he committed suicide and apologized, so he is a little self-aware. Now is not the time to discuss the crimes of the dead. The battle situation has changed a lot, and the most urgent thing is to find a way to stabilize the situation."
People who have this kind of insight often talk about it, such as Yelv Dilugu, but the only one who can say this at this time is the envoy of the gods and the high priest.
Yelu Abaoji glanced at the high priest and snorted coldly, showing that his anger was not completely suppressed. But he didn't refute the other party, and said something else, which shows that he also recognized the other party.
"My Great Khitan's military strategy against the Tang Dynasty's Youyun and other places was originally a three-legged stand to support the entire battle situation, so that the superiority of troops can be maximized, and the inferior forces of the Tang army can lose sight of the other.
"In the past few days, although we have not achieved decisive results, our attack on the border areas of the Tang Dynasty has been very effective. The Tang army can only concentrate its forces to guard the key areas, and cannot launch a large-scale counterattack against us... "
It was Beiyuan Yili Jin Yelv Dilie who said this, before he finished speaking, Yelu Abaoji coldly interrupted him.
The latter looked unfriendly and said: "Say something useful, these things are well known and outdated, so you don't need to talk nonsense!"
Yelu Dilie looked embarrassed, the originally organized words were blocked in his throat, his thoughts were interrupted, and he didn't know how to say the following words for a while.
General Yeludi Lugu of the Sijin Department took over the conversation with a stern look on his face, and said in an unprecedentedly solemn tone: "Yelüxienechi was defeated, all the front lines of Guizhou have fallen into the hands of the Tang army, and our army's three legs have been cut off. Now only the troops in the direction of Tanzhou and Pingzhou are left.
"Leaving aside the fact that the soldiers suffered serious losses, their combat power would be greatly reduced, and their morale would be greatly affected. In terms of the overall situation, our troops in Guizhou, Tanzhou, and Pingzhou were originally lined up in the shape of the Chinese character "Neipin". Formation, advance can attack and retreat can defend, each department can support each other, there is also a lot of room for Tengto to transfer, it can be said to be invincible.
"But after the Tang army occupied Guizhou, they had the ability to attack the grassland on a large scale from the flanks, directly threatening our waists and vests. Our army formation no longer exists.
"The suppression of the Tang army that we have been maintaining before has disappeared so far! Next, the Tang army will have the possibility of taking the initiative to attack, and there are more than one direction to use troops. It is difficult for us to deploy defenses..."
Speaking of this, Yelu Dilugu glanced at Yelu Abaoji, hesitating a little, for fear that the other party would not be able to accept what he was going to say next.
Yelu Abaoji suppressed his anger, "Yelu Xienechi, this trash, did more than fail. It was in vain that I trusted him so much. He was defeated by the Tang army! Couldn't it be time for me to send reinforcements? After the battle broke out, He couldn't even last two days, it's really not a pity to die!"
heard this
, Yeludi Lugu sighed.
He was also heartbroken at the defeat of Yelvxienechi.
It's just that at this moment Yelu Abaoji can say that the other party is wrong, so as to show the defeat of the war. It is not his responsibility as the king of the grassland to continue to maintain his supreme majesty and image, but Yelu Di Lugu can't take the opportunity to attack Yelu Xienechi. If he is a dead person, then he will appear to be a bit incompetent, and he doesn't have the strength to share Yelu Abaoji's worries.
He sighed and said: "Actually, Yelu Xienechi can't be blamed entirely. Who would have thought that Shangguan Qingcheng would revive and go to war so quickly, and those grassland tribal troops are really too unbearable."
Yelu Abaoji snorted heavily: "Quanzhen Temple, Wukong Shimen, from now on, we will do our best to eliminate these people in the army, the core is the grassland tribal army!
"A group of jumping clowns, I didn't intend to pay attention to them at first, but that guy Li Ye is too insidious. He even made such a hidden layout on the grassland early on, so that these ants can affect the outcome of the war. It is tolerable. unbearable!
"From this, it can also be seen that Li Ye's intention to plot against the grassland has long existed, and we must not take it lightly in the future! We will not retreat in this battle, otherwise, the eight tribes of the Khitan will face annihilation! "
As soon as he said this, everyone realized the seriousness of the problem, and their morale, which was a little bit bad, was a little cheered up because there was no way out.
Yelu Dilugu admired Yelu Abaoji very much. He was able to seize everything that could be used at such a time and make actions that were beneficial to the situation of the battle. It can be seen that his reason was not affected by anger, which is very commendable.

Yelu Abaoji, the leader, did not mess up his position, and Yelu's enemy Lu Gu couldn't help being encouraged, he immediately said: "After the Tang army won the victory in Guizhou, the situation has opened, and the next will definitely seize the opportunity to counterattack.
"We have two countermeasures. One is to shrink the front line and defend with troops, waiting for the Tang Dynasty to lose the war in Hexi and Shu; the other is to concentrate the elite to recapture Guizhou and reverse the situation."
Yili Jin Yelv Dilie from the Northern Academy just suffered from being dumb. In order to show his sense of existence and show that he has no problem with his intelligence, he quickly answered the conversation and said loudly: "Of course it is to counterattack Guizhou and turn the tide of the battle. Isn't it the style of a grassland warrior to sit and wait for death?"
"The Tang army has just captured Guizhou, and they will definitely celebrate wildly, and they will be negligent of us. This is our timing!"
There's nothing wrong with that.
But Yeludi Lugu looked at him contemptuously, and said coldly: "Let's not talk about Li Ye, let's talk about Shangguan Qingcheng and Li Maozhen. With their military talents, they will be negligent after such a big victory." A mistake? If we attack rashly, if we fail to win or lose the battle, we will completely lose the ability to take the initiative to attack!"
Yelv Dilie was so directly refuted by Yeludi Lugu, he couldn't hold back his face immediately, and quibbled with a red neck: "Even if they are prepared, so what? The warriors of the Great Khitan are brave and fearless. What kind of powerful enemy cannot be defeated? Before It's fine for the Tang army to stick to Xiongguan, but if they dare to fight us in the wasteland, they will definitely lose!"
These words were very prestige and morale-boosting, Yelu Dilie was very proud after he finished speaking, especially Yeludi Lugu, he felt that the other party would never be able to refute.
Yeludi Lugu did not refute him, but just looked at him like a fool, and looked disdainful to talk to him.
This made Yelu Dilie so angry that he almost wrestled with Yelu Dilugu.
However, Yelu Dilie suddenly woke up when he found that everyone did not agree with him or agree with him.
, Khitan's elite cavalry, when facing the elite cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, none of them had a good record. The heart of one of the two most elite departments has been slaughtered by the Tang army!
This shows that even in a field battle, the Khitan cavalry has no advantage over the Tang cavalry.
This is very disappointing.
Realizing this, Yelu Dilie only felt his scalp go numb, and he felt a sense of helplessness and powerlessness. He was also at a loss for the ensuing battle, completely lost the belief that he would win, and his momentum became sluggish because of it.
Yeludi Lugu said to Yelu Abaoji: "Your Majesty, for the current plan, safety is the first priority, we will continue to implement the previous strategy, focusing on defense.
"Because of the defeat in Guizhou, our military strength must be further reduced, so as not to give the Tang army an opportunity. The Tang army has been guarding the pass for several months, and now it has won a big victory. It is the time when the army is at its peak. This is truly unacceptable. Fight with it!"
This is an old saying.
But Yelu Abaoji did not fully agree.
He said with a sullen face: "After losing Guizhou, we have no advantage over the Tang army. The Tang army can fight if they want to fight, and defend if they want to. If they don't make big mistakes, it will be difficult for us to win. This is tantamount to defeating the enemy." Negative, it's all on Uighur and Nanzhao idiots!
"Putting hope on others is extremely stupid, let alone two weaklings. Is this the way of my Great Khitan?!"
Yeludi Lugu opened his mouth, almost stopped talking.
What Yelu Abaoji said was indeed true, and he had no way to refute it unless he had a supreme strategy to win.
The Khitan cavalry are best at not attacking the city, nor defending, but fighting in the field. Now the Khitan has no such advantage over the Tang army, and the battle situation is unfavorable. How can we save the situation
Yelu Dilugu couldn't think of any way.
At this point in the war, because of the defeat in Guizhou, if the Khitan did not retreat, they could only pin their hopes on others.
This is the deepest helplessness, and it is also the last thing a wise man wants to face.
At this time, Yelu Di Lugu couldn't help but lose his fighting spirit, and the high spirits aroused by Yelu Abaoji before were also forced to diminish in the face of the cruel reality.
In the end, Yeludi Lugu could only sigh secretly. Now that things have happened, I can only blame Li Ye for being too tough. Not only did he discipline the Tang army to such an elite level, he also cultivated such a strong team of generals and monks, and there are too many talents under his command!
"Send a letter to Uighur and Nanzhao, urging them to step up their attack. If you don't want the Tang Dynasty to win the general situation, turn around and slaughter them, you must do your best now!"
Yelu Abaoji finally made a decision, "The whole army will stick to the camp and send out elite cavalry to hunt for all available fighters. At the same time, they will monitor the Tang army's various passes day and night. Once they find that the opponent is lax, they will strike with a thunderbolt!"
Yelu Abaoji didn't want to issue such a military order, but the situation was such that he had no choice.
After saying this, Yelu Abaoji stood up and looked at the High Priest of the God Envoy: "Now the situation is not good, the Khitan warriors have fought bloody battles, you should also take out the things you have kept at the bottom of the box, otherwise, you will not be enshrined by the Great Khitan Qualifications!"
These words were resolute and unceremonious, and the god made the high priest feel unhappy. But he also knew that when the war was at its most critical, they had no way out and had to do everything possible.
"The divine religion naturally has its own reliance, and it will certainly not disappoint the king." The god envoy and high priest responded coldly.
"It's good to have it!"
