In the battle below Liangzhou City, the Tang army killed 36,000 people and captured 10,800 prisoners. The loss was less than 5,000. It was a complete victory. Except for the cavalry that fled westward, the rest of the Western Turks "breakthrough"

All three Tang Army blockades fled northward!

Qin Huaiyu personally led an army of 20,000 troops closely behind them, chasing the tail of the Turks, biting the desperate Turkic cavalry bite after bite, cutting off the flesh with a sharp knife, and adding up to a small amount, this is the principle of beating a drowned dog hard.

The Turks had been arrogant in the Tang Dynasty for so many days. If they were not allowed to stay, not only would they not be able to account with the emperor and the civil and military officials, but they would also be unable to explain to the local people. Therefore, Qin Huaiyu ordered that no prisoners should be taken and the pursuit should not be affected.

speed.

The main force of the army led by Li Chengqian rested in Liangzhou for a night, burying pots to make rice, arranging for wounded soldiers, and pursued them as quickly as possible along the direction of the front army early the next morning. On the third day, Li Chengqian and

Qin Huaiyu's troops gathered together, and the front of the army pointed directly at the back of the Western Turks, and stabbed them hard.

The enemy's general was Zhenzhu Tong, who was the commander-in-chief of the Western Turks in the east. In the first year of Zhenguan, he went to Chang'an to pay tribute, and the emperor specially summoned him alone. Li Chengqian was with him at that time. Regarding this Western Turk general,

I have a rather deep impression. Although I have a twitchy appearance, I can speak Chinese quite well.

Since they were old acquaintances, there was no need to be polite. Li Chengqian deliberately set up the commander's tent on the top of a hill, the most eye-catching spot on the battlefield. He just wanted to see clearly how the Zhenzhu Army defeated all the Western Turks' forces in the east.

Killing them will solve the threat of the Western Turks in northern Guanzhong and push their power to the west. That would be great for the Tang Dynasty.

At the foot of the mountain, Qin Huaiyu, Fang Yizhi, Xi Junmai, Li Hui, Li Chongzhen, and General Wu Deng divided their troops into five groups and advanced steadily, gradually compressing the living space of the Western Turks, and the enemy was thirty miles behind.

At Liangzhou Great Wall, according to reports from scouts, the fighting there was extremely fierce. The soldiers on both sides became red-eyed and started a fierce tug-of-war.

The desperate efforts of the Turks are to be expected, so Li Chengqian drew such a large circle between Liangzhou and the Great Wall for hundreds of miles, just to consume their physical strength and morale to the maximum extent. The ancients said that if you make great efforts at once, they will decline again.

, After three and three exhaustion, without eating or drinking, fighting for hundreds of miles without sleep, the iron man will become soft, okay?

If they were not in a desperate situation with nowhere to escape, Li Chengqian believed that these guys would have fallen to the ground and "lyed dead". Therefore, as long as Changsun Jiaqing's "furnace bottom" was strong, these Turkic troops at the foot of the mountain would be meat on the chopping board, and Li Chengqian could eat whatever he wanted.

OK.

Surrounded by his personal guards, Li Chengqian held his arms and watched on the top of the mountain for a long time. It was not until Qin Huaiyu and Fang Yizhi penetrated into the enemy's hinterland that he called the soldiers who had joined the army.

"Order the flag troops to issue an order! All the remaining troops will be put into the battlefield. The Laiji Division will penetrate deep at all costs and meet up with Changsun Jiaqing in front. He has already fought hard there. Don't make him and Lu Chengqing too embarrassed!"

As soon as Li Chengqian finished speaking, Xu Jingzong next to him asked in a deep voice: "Your Highness, you would not have considered asking this question before. If we have more troops, the assault will be faster!"

Alas, after sighing, Li Chengqian shook his head. Of course he knew that it was inappropriate to issue such a military order, and then he said in a deep voice: "The Supervisory Army is the housekeeping force of the Ministry of War. If they are wiped out, we will return."

It’s hard to see Prime Minister Du!”

The Imperial Guard Army was used by Lao Du to "look after homes and courtyards" for the imperial court. It was well-trained and had excellent work style. It was a rare and good force. It was also Lao Du's heart and soul.

If you are not jealous, you usually have a lot of thoughts about it.

This is Li Chengqian. If he were the general of the other guards, as long as he opened his mouth, old man Du would have to spray them to death! Moreover, the Hexi Road Chinese Army has so many members of the military department. If he does not send troops to rescue him, then they will inevitably have some.

The feeling of sadness when the rabbit dies and the fox dies.

There are still many battles to be fought in the future, and no one knows what situation he will encounter. Unity in the army is the first priority. He has to make such a choice, not to mention that there are still three of his uncles there, so

Both public and private parties have to send troops to rescue.

War is always about strength. Even though Zhenzhu Tong has decades of war experience, it can only do nothing to deal with the current situation; with Li Chengqian adding the last fire, the Western Turkic camp retreated across the board.

Not abandoning some of the people, he cut off the rear and rode his horse northwards at the risk of his life.

Seeing this situation, Li Chengqian ordered the flags to be sent to all the tribes at the foot of the mountain to pursue and fight them to the death. They would catch up and kill them at all costs. Anyway, there were only dozens of miles between the two points. Zhenzhutong had the energy to play, so why not

Staying with you!

But it was because of Zhenzhutong's order to withdraw all forcefully to the north that the last chance to break through the North Great Wall of Liangzhou was completely ruined. The Turkic army was driven like sheep, with their swords piercing their flesh and drawing blood. The battle situation became one-sided. The Turks

There are mountains of corpses.

The war lasted until dawn the next day. Zhenzhutong and more than a thousand personal guards surrounded a small hill and resisted. Li Chengqian, surrounded by Qin Huaiyu, Fang Yizhi and other family members, rode over. Behind him were the prince Dazhu and the prince fluttering in the wind.

Tang army flag.

"Prince of the Tang Dynasty, when I arrived in Chang'an in the first year of Zhenguan, you were just an eight-year-old boy. Apart from being a little prettier, there was nothing special about you! I didn't expect that seventeen years later, I would fall into your hands, and

And the lives of 130,000 Turkic warriors were lost!"

As soon as Zhenzhutong finished speaking, Li Chengqian, who was on the horse, couldn't help but smile and replied with a smile: "People will always change. Seventeen years ago you were not just a mere Qijin. Why couldn't I surround you and annihilate you?"

Woolen cloth!"

"If I'm to blame, it's your collusion with Gaochang. You were too greedy to swallow the elephant. That's why you ended up like this. You become a king and lose a bandit. I believe that you can command so many armies and you don't have the mentality of a woman! We must continue to fight.

It’s better to surrender, just give me a word and Gudu will follow up!”

Before Li Chengqian's conversation ended, Lu Chengqing, who was tied to a gaudy horse, galloped over on his horse. He fell off the horse because he was too anxious, so he could only let the guards carry him over.

After hearing his stumbling words about Changsun Wu Nai, Chang Sun Wu Ao killed in battle, and Chang Sun Jiaqing injured, the smile on Li Chengqian's face gradually disappeared and turned grim. He gritted his teeth and ordered: "Charge up and kill them all."

He was chopped into pieces by Gu, and his heads were piled up into a temple to commemorate the two eldest grandson generals!"
