Tuli's blind command and pig teammates created the current embarrassing situation.
Tuli was galloping away quickly in front, while yelling there.
"All horses follow me."
But as soon as Tuli finished shouting, there was a sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling next to him, "Khan, run quickly, the enemy is catching up, don't talk anymore, they are coming to scare you."
This time, Tu Li was so angry that he blushed and said, "Just wait for me, I will never give up with you."
As soon as Tuli finished shouting this sentence at the top of his lungs, he heard the soldiers led by Xu Yunyan from behind shouting, "Capture Tuli kid alive, follow me and kill him."
Tu Li was a little surprised at this moment. "How did they know I was leading the soldiers?"
Several guards behind him said, "It should be the Han people who caught the prisoners and asked them."
Hearing the news, Tu Li was angry and resentful, but the reality was such that he had no choice but to run away honestly.
"I will be back." Tu Li thought angrily.
Fortunately, Tuli was lucky and was not caught by Xu Yunyan. Xu Yunyan, who had pursued Tuli for several miles, waved his sword to stop the soldiers who continued to pursue.
"No more chasing. It's impossible for us two-legged people to catch up with this horseman. Now go back and clean the battlefield, take a good rest and wait until tomorrow to deal with the possible counterattack of the Turks."
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the three kings of Wei came to Yun and came forward, "Captain, this battle was a great one. We, a thousand men and horses, chased tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry and fled in all directions. If word of this spreads, he will not be regarded as a famous general in the world." ?”
Wang Laiyun said this, but Wei San was dissatisfied next to him, "What kind of famous general is this? This is the first time in history that a thousand infantrymen repelled tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry. The infantry fought against the cavalry, and even more so." Win the battle and run after them. Has such a thing happened before? If not, our commander is still awesome."
Xu Yunyan was a little embarrassed because of the constant compliments from his own people here. "Okay, let's not talk about these. Now we should seize the time to clean the battlefield and appease the injured who are defending the city. All the horses are injured or dead." Yes, drag them all back to make food. As for the bodies of the Turkic soldiers, they were buried directly in the ditch."
Wei San was a little surprised by Xu Yunyan's arrangement. "Captain, this trench is very useful. If we bury it, won't we suffer a bit?"
When Wei San asked, Wang Laiyun also looked at Xu Yunyan curiously, but Xu Yunyan shook his head.
"Soldiers are cunning. They can use these things once, and then they won't be injured so easily the second time. Moreover, our victory this time was not due to these traps, but to the arrogance of the Turkic soldiers.
When they gather their troops again next time, even ten thousand people will be in a difficult battle. What's the use of keeping them? They will have ways to deal with it. "
After Xu Yunyan completed the arrangements, Wei San and Wang Laiyun urgently took orders to clean up the battlefield.
When Xu Yunyan returned to Yunzhou City and came to the city again, the soldiers and civilians guarding the outer Yunzhou City couldn't help but cheer.
"Ten thousand years, Governor Xu!"
"Captain Xu will live a long life!"
Some people shouted out this spontaneously, which made Xu Yunyan a little surprised. But before he could be surprised, some people even shouted out the words of Governor Xu, Duke Wandai, which made Xu Yunyan a little confused.
Now these simple people are shouting such slogans from the heart. Can they really be worthy of such slogans? The safety of Yunzhou must be ensured no matter what.
Finally, he stopped the cheering guards here and arranged for everyone to clean up the battlefield.
Taking advantage of the darkness, these Yunzhou guards who had just finished a battle but did not feel tired were cleaning the battlefield enthusiastically.
Although it is already late at night, the entire Yunzhong City is brightly lit. The battlefield has been cleaned up early. Now in Yunzhou City, both the original residents and the nearby residents brought in by Jianbi Qingye are grateful to Xu Yunyan. .
Not only did the strong walls and clear fields save their lives, but each household was given a large piece of horse meat, which was a rare delicacy for people who had been unable to eat meat for a long time.
Xu Yunyan, who was not resting in the watchtower of the city wall, was a little surprised when he heard the reports from Wang Laiyun and Wei San in front of him.
"What? This time we captured nearly 10,000 fine war horses. Is it true or not? Did the Turkic soldiers leave us so many fine war horses?"
Just after Xu Yunyan said this, Wang Laifeng, who was responsible for distributing horses to the residents of the city, interrupted, "Captain, this has not yet taken into account the tens of thousands of horses that were distributed as food. The Turks lost 20,000 horses in this battle. What's more, tens of thousands of cattle and sheep have been driven into Yunzhou City, so even if the Turkic army invades and besieges the city for several months, we will not have to worry about food and drink."
As soon as Wang Laifeng finished his report, a hurried figure came here. Who could it be if it wasn't Li Changsheng?
"The Governor is so happy, so happy! Seeing that the Governor defeated the Turks and seized tens of thousands of cattle and sheep in one stop, the people in the city spontaneously cleared an open space for the Governor to raise cattle and sheep here. I wonder what other plans the Governor has for this?"
Looking at these generals who were overflowing with joy, Xu Yunyan knocked on the table here and pondered for a while and said, "All the cattle and sheep will be slaughtered and dried to be used as dry food. As for the furs, they will be distributed to the people in the city. It is the severe winter now and we cannot let them freeze." On."
Xu Yunyan's arrangement surprised these generals.
"Captain, these are tens of thousands of cattle and sheep. We can give them to them so easily. We are too kind to them. We have already pulled them into the city and saved their lives. Is this still necessary?"
Wei San said this directly, and the Wang brothers had almost the same meaning. However, when Li Changsheng heard Xu Yunyan's arrangement, his eyes flashed with gratitude beyond words.
Seeing how unbearable they were, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but said, "You have to think about it. We don't have food and grass to feed these cattle and sheep in our city. If they are hungry here for a day, they will lose some meat. If these tens of thousands of cattle and sheep are hungry for a day, they will lose some meat." You should know how much weight you have lost by thinking about it, right?
Why not take advantage of this moment to win over people's hearts? When the Turks invade again, will these people accept my favor and defend the city for us wholeheartedly?
As long as the Turks are defeated again, I believe there will be greater gains. What's more, the people's hearts are waiting for them, will they still covet me and wait for new gains?
Even if this is the case, if we provide some compensation, it will be better than the cattle and sheep starving here and losing their meat. "
Xu Yunyan tried hard to persuade these people to understand, and they couldn't bear to slaughter the cattle and sheep.
