Chapter 395: Counterattack

After massacring a group of Tuyuhun soldiers, the troops began to clean up the ground. Feiying brought the special forces members to report. Everything was fine in the grain warehouse. Looking at Feiying and the others' bloody appearance, Li Hao stepped forward and patted Feiying on the shoulder, swept his eyes to all the special forces members, and said in a stern voice: "Thank you, you are real national heroes."

Feiying shook his head and said, "No, Marquis, you are the real hero. You lead your army to travel 200 miles a day and capture Xizhou. Such military achievements are unprecedented and no one will come later. Marquis' achievements in this battle will be recorded in history and will be praised for generations."

"I can succeed and become famous... What about you..." Li Hao looked at them and sighed quietly, "You have made extraordinary achievements in fighting for the country in this life. However, some of you don't even have their own names, only code names. Even if you die in battle, you can only be buried in the loess and have nothing left. I owe you, and the Tang Dynasty owe you." When Li Hao said this, he couldn't help but feel sad, and his eyes turned a little red.

The special forces soldiers were moved when they heard this. Feiying slapped his chest and said, "Mr. Marquis, don't say it. This is what we are willing to do. If the Marquis can treat us like this, why are we still dissatisfied? The scholar will die for his confidant!"

"Soldiers die for their confidants!" All the special forces shouted loudly.

The army around who were cleaning the site was inexplicably seen, not knowing what happened to these Li Hao's personal guards.

Next was to clean up the mess and send scouts to investigate. Then Li Hao came to the governor's mansion and met the chief general of Tuyuhun.

The main general of Tuyuhun was tied up tightly, but the lynx was not very kind and did not dress him. So the guy is still naked. Li Hao pulled a piece of cloth to cover his lower body and said to the lynx: "Please him up."

The bobcat helped the Tuyuhun master stand up. Li Hao glanced at the master and sneered: "I mean to kneel down, not stand up."

The Tuyuhun general hurriedly knelt down. Before Li Hao asked, he shouted: "General Li, please spare me. The villain Zhang Luo came here under the order of my king. The villain did not want to offend the power of the Tang Dynasty. General Li, please spare me."

Li Hao grinned and smiled coldly: "Is it Nuogebo? His neck is itchy?"

Zhang Luo's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he didn't dare to reply. Li Hao smacked his lips and stood up and murmured: "Forget it, I will send a military report to the emperor to see what the emperor means. If the emperor allows it, when the war here is over, I will destroy Tuyuhun."

Zhang Luo was so scared that the cold sweat flowed down his back. He was very scared of Li Hao. After all, Li Hao's reputation was beyond his name. Li Hao's words were definitely not big talk. It was indeed a good thing for him to destroy Tuyuhun.

Li Hao suddenly asked the lynx: "Is there a dog in the city?"

The bobcat nodded: "Yes, my subordinates heard the dog barking at night."

"Yeah." Li Hao nodded and said, "Chop him and feed him to the dog."

"Ah!" Zhang Luo was so scared that his whole body trembled, and suddenly his eyes were straight, he screamed, and then he collapsed to the ground, his eyes wide open, and there was no movement.

The bobcat stepped forward and checked it out, and said, "Marty, he was scared and died. Do you want to chop it up and feed it to the dog?"

"Forget it." Li Hao waved his hand and said, "Like those corpses, throw them into the desert to feed the wolf."

"Yes." The bobcat took the order and dragged Zhang Luo's body away.

Next, Li Hao went to find Ma Zhou and wanted to jointly write an army report to Chang'an with him. Ma Zhou agreed, so the two began to write a military newspaper. After Ma Zhou finished writing the military newspaper, Li Hao blushed after reading it. Because after Ma Zhou actually wrote everything, he praised Li Hao in various ways, and praised him in a word, saying that Li Hao led the army to speed for two hundred miles within a day and seized Xizhou overnight, and was called a god general...

Anyway, they were all kinds of praises. Even if Li Hao was thick-skinned, he was embarrassed to be praised and expressed his unwillingness to sign the autograph. So Ma Zhou signed his name alone and asked Li Hao to write a military newspaper alone. Li Hao nodded in agreement and wrote a military newspaper alone. Then the two sent 800 miles to send the military newspaper to Chang'an in a hurry.

In the afternoon of the same day, Xue Rengui rushed to Xizhou with an army of 20,000. Then, Guo Xiaoke also brought the remnants of the people of Xizhou back. When they learned about Li Haofei's capture of Xizhou, they admired Li Hao so much that they were overwhelmed.

Next, Li Hao left 10,000 troops for Guo Xiaoke and asked him to guard Xizhou, while he and Xue Rengui took 30,000 troops north to support Su Dingfang.

The participation of Tubo and Xue Yantuo in the war made the Western Turks brave. The Western Turks also sent 40,000 troops to attack the Tang Dynasty again. There were some other small countries, and there were nearly 20,000 troops in total. Now there are seven countries on the land of the Tang Dynasty, with a total of as many as 160,000 troops.

After these 160,000 troops entered the territory of the Tang Dynasty, they naturally looked for the main force of the Tang army. The main force of the Tang army was naturally the 40,000 army led by Su Dingfang. When Su Dingfang heard that Xizhou was lost, he immediately turned around and rushed to Tingzhou, because he knew that the enemy's next step would definitely attack Tingzhou, and he must not let Tingzhou fall.

But he never expected that so many countries would participate in the war, and he never expected that there would be so many enemy troops. 160,000 troops gathered outside the city of Tingzhou. Su Dingfang led 40,000 troops to defend the city. Fortunately, since Li Hao left, the governor of Tingzhou Qin Wei prepared for the future and expanded and strengthened the city. The current Tingzhou City is still quite strong, so Su Dingfang was able to defend the city without losing. However, the food and grass in the city were only enough for more than ten days. Su Dingfang complained now.

When Li Hao and Xue Rengui led their troops all the way north, they came to the south of Tingzhou City with ease, fifty miles south of Tingzhou City, Li Hao took out his telescope to observe from afar, turned to Xue Rengui and smiled, "Brother Xue, your chance to make contributions is here."

"Oh?" Xue Rengui asked in confusion, "What is the opportunity to make contributions?"

Li Hao handed him the telescope and said, "Look, what is ahead?"

Xue Rengui looked at it with a telescope and immediately exclaimed: "It's the food and grass army!"

"Yes." Li Hao nodded and smiled, "That is the Tubo grain and grass army, with about tens of thousands of people. It seems that there is a lot of grain and grass. Brother Xue, go and take them tonight!"

"No problem!" Xue Rengui was excited when he heard this and handed the telescope back to Li Hao. Li Hao waved his hand and said, "You can take this first. It's worth it when attacking the camp at night. It's not too late to give it back to me when the task is completed tomorrow."

"Yes!" After Xue Rengui said this, he excitedly hung the telescope around his neck, looked up at the sky, wishing it would be dark now, because he could not wait.
