Chapter 75: The Immortal Wang Junkuo, the Fierce Turks
Three days later, when Jie Li led the crowd to run and was two days away from Dingxiang, a dense arrow like a heavy rain covered Jie Li's front army. At this moment, no less than five thousand people were caught and fell!
Just as Jie Lile horses were organizing defense, a man and horse emerged from the left, which seemed to have about 10,000 cavalrymen. The leader held two maces, like a sharp spear, and penetrated straight into the Turkic Central Army!
At the same time, behind the cavalry, there were about 20,000 infantrymen. The front row was the 10,000 archers who had fired arrows before. They kept bowing and crossbows in their hands. According to the command of the commander, all thirty arrows in a quiver would be shot at the Turkic front army within a quarter of an hour, and then they would draw out their long swords to join the battle sequence!
At this time, Jie Li didn't know that he had encountered an ambush, so he immediately organized his troops to defend the west. Fortunately, he had a large number of people on his side, and more than 100,000 troops were composed of armies of various tribes, and each army was led by the leader of his own tribe. This was not disbanded by the previous chaos. Soon a cavalry team of 20,000 people attacked the Tang army general holding double maces!
But before Jie Li could calm down, he heard a shout of killing from the right. When he looked back, he saw that there were also 30,000 soldiers, but only 5,000 cavalry, led by a bearded black-faced man. The man held a huge horse spear in his hand, and fought all the way as if he had entered a no-man! The Turkic soldiers who were killing cried and shouted to their parents!
Jie Li saw that he was so cruel. Sixty thousand people were lying here? Do you want to eat my 130,000 people? Are you not afraid of jumping?
Just as he was stunned, there was another shout of killing in the south. It turned out that Yuchi Jingde and Chai Shao, who defeated him head-on the day before yesterday, were chasing him again. There were 30,000 people on the other side. Jie Li was really panicked this time. The enemy was 90,000. The soldiers on his side were already frightened and had no power to fight at all. It would be better to save their lives and retreat quickly! As for the soldiers, those who survived their lives would naturally find their homes themselves!
Jie Li was right. In ancient times, in addition to killing and captives, there were many scattered soldiers on the battlefield. Finally, after the war ended, they all found their homes. For example, Chai Shao and the others were chasing each other along the way. However, when Turkic soldiers were scattered, they could not chase one on one, so they might be counter-killed. If a team of people chased them, how many people could they be assigned? So even if they chased them, the results would not be too great! I remember that in the Battle of Red Cliff in the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao's army was defeated and returned, and in the end, hundreds of thousands of people returned to the north!
Jie Li did not give an order, but signaled the Turkic soldiers in the headquarters to flee north with him. As for other tribes that depended on the Turks, it would be better to stay and help him block the powerful enemy if he didn't ask them!
But before Jie Li escaped, he was blocked by a group of people from the north! The person who came was a gray-bearded veteran holding a spear, and the commander of the three armies - Li Jing!
"Jie Li, where can I escape? Dingxiang City has been taken down by me. At this time, you are already a stray dog. You will be surrendered immediately. I can take you to the front of His Majesty to apologize. Otherwise, don't blame me for not having eyes in my hand!"
Jie Li heard that his old nest was being taken away, and instantly spit out a mouthful of blood from the sky. The 200,000 army set out in a mighty manner. Now he was defeated and captured. His hometown was still being beaten up in one fell swoop. Will the sky destroy me, Turk?
With the anger of hatred burning in his eyes, Jie Li fell into madness for a moment!
He shouted, "My sons, Li Jing's old man sneaked into my Dingxiang home. We want to avenge our family. Go up and chop him up, take revenge! Kill!"
It has to be said that Jie Li is a monarch who is really talented and has a great strategy. Even if he is a general, he is very qualified. In this ambushing situation, he can still see the weakness of the encirclement and be able to decisively send the miserable soldiers to win. This person is not simple!
But Li Jing was not easy to share with each other. In terms of battlefield command, there was no one in the Tang Dynasty. Although there were only 18,000 people, he was able to make the Six Flowers Army formation so well. With this skill, he blocked Jie Li's counterattack, and did not let anyone escape!
Just when Jie Li saw that there was no other way of life and was desperate to pull out his waist and commit suicide, a dense sound of horse hooves came from the east, accompanied by a shout, "Don't panic, Khan, I'll be unable to think about it! Break through the west, I'll be waiting to pick up Khan!"
Hearing this, Jie Li was as if a surprise came from the sky for a moment, and almost burst into tears! He turned around and looked at Li Jing with a look of surprise on his face, leaving a sentence: I will come back sooner or later to take revenge!
He led a group of personal guards and more than 10,000 warriors in the headquarters to rush towards the west!
Li Ji was commanding the battle in the west. When he looked back, he saw what was going on? Where did more than 20,000 cavalry come from? When he saw the general in charge, who was the leader? He was unable to think about his mind?
No, my Yunzhou City!
In shock, Li Ji almost fell from the commando of the commander's tent, calmed down, waved the flag in his hand, and ordered Cheng Yaojin not to fight, and quickly led the cavalry back to the army, leaving the infantry to besiege the remaining enemies!
When the remaining Tang troops saw that there was a temporary change in the battlefield, they all knew that they could not delay it for a long time, so they all tried their best. Finally, half an hour later, an ambush and siege battle ended, and in the end, Jie Li and more than 60,000 people were escaped!
At this time, Li Ji also received the news that the messenger risked his life to send back. It turned out that King Junguo of Youzhou suddenly rebelled and killed Li Yuan, the King of Lujiang who was guarding Youzhou, and proclaimed himself king. Later, he joined forces with the Turkic national magistrate Zhao Deyan. Taking advantage of the emptiness of Yunzhou, he led his troops to defeat Yunzhou City in one fell swoop and rescued more than 20,000 Turkic prisoners guarding Yunzhou, including the general Zhishi power captured by Niu Jinda!
According to the person who was desperate to report the news, Wang Junkuo did not defend himself after defeating Yunzhou, but emptied all the property of Yunzhou. The Yunzhou defenders were 10,000, and he killed 6,000, and the remaining 4,040 fled!
But the worst thing is that more than 20,000 Turkic soldiers rescued threatened to avenge their Zuoxian King, and actually launched a city-slaughtering operation against Yunzhou City. The entire Yunzhou City was slaughtered by them, and a Hebei Dao city was killed by them into a dead city!
After hearing this news, Li Ji fainted on the ground with a mouthful of blood spurted out! The generals also pounded their chests hard, all of them were Tang Dynasty men and the people of Tang Dynasty! They were cruelly killed!
Turkic, if you don’t take revenge, you will not be a human being! Li Jing was so angry that his eyebrows stood upright! Several generals were about to bite their teeth into pieces!
Cheng Yaojin said to Li Daozong, "Brother Daozong, how about exchanging your 20,000 prisoners to me? Lao Cheng exchanged all his family business with you! I want to use their heads to pay tribute to the people of Yunzhou!"
Li Daozong gritted his teeth and said, "Those dirty people, why do you need to trade? I'll give you five hundred stagnant of money for washing the knife!"
Li Jing slapped the cases in front of him and shouted, "No, kill prisoners on the battlefield, how many of your heads are enough to cut? Are you not going back? If we massacre like them, wouldn't we be equally inhuman?"
Yuchi Jingde argued, "But they slaughtered my 100,000 people!"
"Then you will capture all the Turkic barbarians and serve as sacrifices for our people. Wouldn't it be too cheap to kill them with one knife?"
Everyone nodded together, but the handsome man could see through it!
