After receiving the news, Tuli Khan hurriedly brought his cronies to the gate of the camp.
Seeing the disgraced Jie Li returning to the camp with the more than 5,000 defeated soldiers, although he was extremely happy, he still stepped forward cautiously.
"Great Khan, what's going on? Has the main force of the Tang Army already arrived at the border?"
Although Jieli Khan was dissatisfied with Tuli Khan, he still did not get angry directly at this time. Instead, he said it with hatred and gritted teeth.
"It's all my fault for being careless about their ways, but after the other tribes gather, I will lead my great Turkic warriors to completely crush the Tang army camp ahead.
They actually dared to cover the grassland with firewood and set my army on fire! Such an angry person cannot die a happy death. Fortunately, the Changsheng Heaven took care of it and sent heavy rain. If we don't take revenge, we will never live together. "
When Jie Li said this, the other small tribe leaders instantly became convinced of Jie Li.
Even Changshengtian is on his side, and those who don't listen to him will have no good fruits to eat.
Tuli Khan was also trembling.
"Is there such a coincidence? Why can't the fire burn you to death when Tang Jun sets fire? Damn Changsheng is so naive and blind that he actually helps you, a villain. Why don't you help me? If you help me, I will burn you to death."
However, after such a surprise, he no longer dared to blatantly oppose Jieli. Instead, he was cautious about everything.
As for Jie Li, he didn't expect that such a scene would give him unexpected and absolute authority.
While Jieli Khan was recuperating and waiting for other small tribes to gather, Li Jing, who was speeding up his march towards the border, looked at Zhai Peng who appeared in front of him, looked at the letter Zhai Peng handed over, and then looked at the bandaged wound. asked cautiously.
"Are you sure this letter is genuine?"
"General, is this fake? We are fighting the enemy bravely..."
Zhai Peng was thinking of all the excellent words he could come up with and applied them to his captain. This was something that made Xu Yunyan twice as proud.
It's just that Zhai Peng's brain capacity is so big, and he doesn't know many beautiful words. He can only repeat the past and the past.
Li Jing looked at them with confusion.
No wonder he didn't believe it, it was really scary.
"First of all, you defeated tens of thousands of Turks in one battle and killed five thousand?"
Zhai Peng nodded, "General, we have nothing to do with this matter."
After reporting, it was me and a hundred brothers who attacked the enemy camp at night, but it was not without casualties. Twenty-five of our comrades were left behind. "
Seeing Zhai Peng's depressed look, Li Jing comforted him and said, "With such a record, they will be honored even if they die."
Then Li Jing talked about the second battle report.
"Succeeded in World War II to scare off 5,000 Turkic Zuodu Yuhou soldiers?"
"Uh-huh!"
Zhai Peng nodded and said hurriedly, "This is my captain who went out alone to fight against his generals and scare them away."
Hearing this, Li Jing could only look at him speechlessly.
"What is all this? Is Zuodu Yuhou a loser? He retreated after losing the battle? It's really interesting. If I meet such a general in the future, it will be my great fortune. As long as the general loses, he will leave. , I have so many brave men in the Tang Dynasty, why should I be afraid of the Turkic children?"
After Li Jing sighed here, Zhai Peng looked at him as he should and said nothing more. Li Jing then read the third item in the battle report.
"Defeat five thousand soldiers and horses of the Turks Youdu Yuhou in three battles and kill four thousand? Capture Yuhou Menggema of Youdu alive?"
Li Jing was already numb to such a result.
A hundred men can defeat ten thousand in a sneak attack, and now it is normal for more than a thousand men to defeat five thousand Turkic elites head-on.
Both Zuodu Yuhou and Youdu Yuhou are famous elites among the Turks, but they didn't expect that Youdu Yuhou was captured alive. Compared with Zuodu Yuhou, who was defeated in the battle, he became a big joke. .
Li Jing kept sighing at Xu Yunyan's reputation in this battle and then looked at the fourth item. This fourth item shocked him extremely.
"Is this true? We defeated 20,000 cavalry in four battles? Captured 3,000? Killed 10,000? Is this really something that more than a thousand of your soldiers can do? Even if I say that the army is gathering, such a result is not It’s not easy.”
After Li Jing finished speaking, he looked at Zhai Peng, "Are you expecting huge casualties in this battle?"
Zhai Peng shook his head, "No!"
Zhai Peng then told Li Jing all the causes and consequences of this battle.
I couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied when I heard that Xu Yunyan had easily defeated the Turkic Jieli Khan through these traps. However, it rained heavily that day and did not leave them all behind.
"A general who knows the right time, place, and people is the best. This still needs experience. The clouds in the sky obviously don't even know if there is rain, so he still needs to use fire.
It was a burning tactic, but it was commendable that it could cause such casualties. "
After Li Jing heard the news, he first told Xu Yunyan, which made Zhai Peng feel a little shameless.
"General! My captain has made extraordinary achievements, right? Why do you still belittle my captain like this?"
Zhai Peng is here to fight Xu Yunyan's injustice. It's okay to just fight the injustice, but this Li Jing doesn't accept this trick.
"You only know that such brilliant results were achieved directly opposite you and Jie Li.
Did you know that the small tribes arranged by Jie Li plundered the northern border, and several counties were attacked by Turks and suffered heavy losses? Some tribes gathered together, and a partial army of our Tang army was completely wiped out? "
All of a sudden Zhai Peng was speechless and allowed Li Jing to teach him a lesson.
When Li Jing said that the whole army should go north, he and Xu Yunyan would garrison the Great Wall to resist Jieli Khan who might come to invade at any time.
When Li Jing came with his army, Xu Yunyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Jing looked at him and preached again.
Is this embarrassing for Xu Yunyan? I kept scolding Jieli Khan in my heart.
"Child Jie Li, you waited for me and actually caused me to be scolded by my master. It will be easier for you when I capture you alive."
As for the current Jieli Khan?
Jieli Khan waited around in his camp, and finally returned to the small tribe he had arranged to go out to plunder.
Seeing that these small tribes had a great harvest, with cattle, sheep, horses, money, food, and women in abundance, I finally laughed.
"Okay, okay, I didn't expect that you would bring back such a harvest when you went out. It's really a great Turk!"
After Jie Li smiled, he arranged for his remaining soldiers to collect the harvest of these small tribes.
Regarding what Jieli Khan did, these small tribes could not think of any resistance, but took it for granted.
They were surprised when Jieli Khan took away most of their harvest.
"Where did Zuodu Yuhou Gudri go? Didn't he go out after Tang Jun? Why hasn't he come back yet? He didn't let Tang Jun make dumplings, right?"
While Jieli Khan was talking about his Zuodu Yuhou Guderi here, Zuodu Yuhou, who was renamed Guderian by Xu Yunyan, and his troops were now struggling with where to go.
