Outside Lanzhou City, Tuoba Hong, who was wearing silver armor, looked at the hundreds of Qingqi who were filing out of Lanzhou City. He subconsciously licked his lips and showed a smile that showed a successful plot.
"Haha, he is indeed the wise man Tuyuhun claims to meet once in a century. Tang Jun was indeed fooled."
"Just wait and watch the show, haha."
The leather-armored man on the side scratched his head, looked at the party cavalry gathered not far away, and asked with confusion:
"Great Khan, didn't you say before that you wanted to compete with the Tang Army for the title of the best light cavalry in the world?"
"But why didn't you send the best of the clan, instead of sending all the trash from the clan?"
"Also, those Tang people were about to leave just now. Why did you still instruct the Tuyuhun cavalry to throw two more Tang people in?"
Tuoba Hong's expression turned cold upon hearing this, he glared at the leather-armored man and said:
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
Xi Fengying trembled and said respectfully:
"Yes, I obey."
Tuoba Hong looked at the front, where the two parties were about to fight together, and said:
"I'm going to inform you that after the war between the two sides, no one is allowed to come within a hundred meters of our clan's military formation, and no one is allowed to collect the bodies of the clan members who died in the battle. Anyone who disobeys the order will die."
Xifeng Ying was confused after hearing this and asked:
"Do you want to kill our soldiers too?"
Tuoba Hong glanced at Xifeng Ying, and his voice was as cold as coming from the Nine Nether Hell.
"Ben Khan is talking about anyone! Don't you understand?"
Xi Fengying knelt down on one knee and said in a trembling voice:
"Yes, I obey."
Half an hour later,
Cheng Yaojin, standing in the "mountain of corpses and sea of blood", looked at the escaped soldiers who were shot in the distance and the party's army who stood still with a puzzled look on his face.
Su Dingfang, who was almost covered in blood, drove his horse forward, cupped his hands and said:
"General manager, our casualties have been calculated. The total losses in this battle are one hundred and sixty-three."
Both sides were cavalry, and with equal numbers, a casualty ratio of one to three could be said to be a great victory.
But there was no trace of happiness on Cheng Yaojin's face. He always felt that something was wrong.
"Dingfang, do you feel that the opponent's cavalry is a little too weak?"
Su Dingfang frowned, thought for a while and said:
"Is it because the barbarian's equipment is too poor? After all, there are very few of these people wearing leather armor."
Cheng Yaojin's face became a little more solemn, he looked at the broken corpse on the ground and said:
"Because of this, I feel that they are not here to kill the enemy, but more like they are here to die."
"Moreover, if Tuoba Hong wants to consume our troops, he should send troops to surround us now, but look at them, they have no intention of sending troops at all."
"It's just weird."
Su Dingfang has been fighting for many years, so he is certainly not a fool.
"Manager, you mean, there might be some conspiracy here?"
Cheng Yaojin nodded.
At this moment, there was a rumbling sound behind them. They turned around and found that the city gate not far away had been opened.
The cow in silver armor stood at the gate of the city and shouted:
"What are you still waiting for? Why don't you hurry back to the city?"
.......
At noon, outside Lanzhou City, there was a large tent of the Tuyuhun Chinese Army.
A banquet had just ended, and after all the soldiers left, the only ones left in the tent were Liang Qucong, the famous king of Tuguhun, Murong Xiujun, the military advisor, and Tuoba Hong, the Khan of Party Xiang.
Liang Qucong raised his wine glass high, gestured to Tuoba Hong, and said:
"After this battle, the Lanzhou garrison no longer has anything to worry about. Khan should be the first to take the lead. Come with us as a military advisor and give a toast to Khan."
Murong Xiujun sighed and picked up the wine glass.
At the same time, I thought silently in my heart:
[Sorry, I have to win this time. ]
Tuoba Hong laughed, waved his hand and said:
"The man was found by the military advisor, and the strategy was also thought up by the military advisor. Tuoba just acted according to the plan and does not deserve the first credit."
Murong Xiujun pursed her lips, forced a smile, and said:
"The Khan is too humble. If it were us, even if this plan could succeed, it would definitely not go so smoothly."
"Besides, our army will move out next, and Lanzhou City will still have to rely on Khan to defend it."
"So, the first achievement is none other than Khan. According to the agreement between you and me, Lanzhou will be yours, Khan, from now on."
Tuoba Hong was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Okay, okay, okay. Then it's settled. Tuoba will use this glass of fine wine to wish you two a successful start and kill the Tang people without leaving a single piece of armor behind."
After speaking, Tuobahong picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
"It's great, hahaha."
Liang Qucong and Murong Xiujun looked at each other, smiled at each other, and said nothing.
Just as the three of them were drinking and drinking, a guard ran in, knelt on one knee and said:
"Informing the famous king, a general from the Dangxiang tribe came outside the tent. He said that he had an urgent military situation and reported to Tuoba Khan."
Tuoba Hong frowned upon hearing this, waved his sleeves and said:
"Let him in."
"yes."
A few moments,
A strong man wearing the special costume of the Dangxiang tribe stepped into the tent, knelt on one knee and said:
"My subordinates pay homage to the Khan, and pay homage to His Highness the Ming King of Tuyuhun."
Tuoba Hong nodded slightly and said with a hint of reproach in his tone:
"Fei Tinghu, if you are not guarding Yuzhong Town, what are you doing here?"
Fei Tinghu cupped his hands and said:
"To report to the Khan, the Tang army, which was originally stationed in Dingxi City, suddenly sent out a large number of cavalry this morning to raid our plundering team."
"Before the end of the world, eight teams have been attacked by the Tang people."
Tuoba Hong raised his eyebrows when he heard this and sneered:
"Thousands of Tang soldiers dare to come out and make noise. They really don't know whether to live or die."
Having said this, Tuoba Hong stretched out his palm, raised it in the direction of Liang Qucong and Murong Xiujun, and said proudly:
"It just so happens that the famous king and military advisor are here. Tell me, how many of our Dangxiang tribe's warriors have killed?"
When Liang Qucong and Murong Xiujun heard this, instead of being happy, their faces darkened.
Fei Tinghu was on pins and needles when he heard this. If he had known that Khan and the famous king were discussing matters together, he would not have come in.
Moreover, my own Khan was obviously a little drunk and did not hear the hidden meaning of his words.
[It was them who were attacked, not Tang Qi! ]
[Khan is the most face-saving. How should I tell Khan that nothing happened to the Tang army, but we lost thousands of warriors! Why! ]
Fei Tinghu sighed inwardly, thought about the wording, and said bravely:
"The warriors of our clan encountered only small groups of cavalry with several hundred people, so our clan's gains were not much. In total, there were probably thousands of people."
Tuoba Hong laughed loudly when he heard this and said:
"Well done, you should be rewarded, you should be rewarded, haha."
Fei Tinghu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and thought to himself.
[Forget it, let’s apologize to the Khan in private later. ]
Liang Qucong and Murong Xiujun's faces turned darker.
[Damn Tang people, how come they become soft persimmons when meeting Dangxiang people! ]
