"The ancestors of the Murong family migrated all the way from Mobei and came here. They settled here and thrived for hundreds of years. There has never been a precedent of surrendering without fighting."
"I, the Qiang people, have also never appeared..."
"Today, I will lead the warriors of Tuyuhun to fight for our tribe and our people..."
"Fight, fight..."
Dilian Wu made an impromptu speech to the twelve generals around him, and the morale that had been lost for a while returned.
The 20,000 troops on the left went straight towards Xue Yantuo's cavalry. They were determined to kill the pug first this time. The two sides had agreed to deal with the Tang Dynasty together, but they immediately turned to the Tang Dynasty and returned to the army. Attack them for Datang.
The losses this time were all caused by this prairie dog.
Dilian Wu led more than 23,000 cavalry and rushed straight to Biandukou. Biandukou must be captured before he could escape back to his base camp, Fuqi City.
Biandukou was lost, and Fuqi City was not far away. It was an important gateway to the north of Tuyuhun.
There are two passes in Biandukou. One was built during the Sui Dynasty and was renovated and reinforced by the Tang Dynasty. The one on the southwest was built by Tuyuhun. At this time, both passes were controlled by the Tang Dynasty.
On the earthen building in the pass, Yuyangzi and the old Zen master were sitting and drinking tea.
There were seven or eight thousand cavalry under the city. This time the King of Shu was really generous. After seizing the opponent's pass, he wiped out the opponent's horse farm, and finally equipped them with war horses and advanced weapons.
However, looking at the cavalry under the tower, it was a bit eye-catching. The miscellaneous brands were really miscellaneous, wearing all kinds of clothes, including monk's robes, monk's robes, and herdsman's leather jackets. There were also servants and slaves.
This vote of people was temporarily gathered by the King of Shu in Liangzhou City, totaling more than 10,000 people.
There are more than 2,000 monks, including those in Liangzhou City, and more than 4,000 Taoist priests. The rest are guards sent by businessmen, including the 2,000 people who have rebelled against Lu Dalin.
When Fu Yun entered Hexi on his own expedition, these people passed through the Qilian Mountains and ran for six days before arriving at Biandukou.
By the time they arrived at Biandukou, the Shu king's men had already captured the opponent's pass and left.
"It is said that the opponent is King Tianzhu. This old guy is an old sinner. I didn't expect that he was tricked by the prince this time. It is really karma."
The old Zen master took a sip of tea, looked at the vast grassland to the north and smiled.
"Zen Master Huiren, do you have any strategies to deal with the enemy? After all, we only have 10,000 people, and the opponent has an army of 50,000, and they are all cavalry."
"Master Qingyangzi, I wonder if you are good at the art of war, why don't you talk about your thoughts, but I am not good at this."
Yuyangzi made a Taoist salute, stood up and said with a smile: "The Little Heavenly Master ordered us to defend the pass, and King Tianzhu must also want to break through the pass and escape back to Fuqi City. A big battle is inevitable. "
"It's just that we are not good at cavalry charges, and we are good at infantry combat. Why not let the rest of the people go out and let them form a small team of a hundred people, like hunting dogs surrounding a buffalo, biting his front, back, left and right."
"Let people from your family and mine guard the pass. When they attack the pass, we will fight at close quarters on the pass."
"Stay until night, and you and I will send teams to assassinate each other's leaders..."
"The prince has given us some artifacts to protect the country, which may be able to send them to heaven in an instant."
The old Zen master's eyes lit up: "Amitabha, Master Yuyangzi is so wonderful!"
"Okay, I, the Taoist, will guard the southwest pass, and you, the Buddhist, will guard this pass... Fellow Taoists, retreat."
Yuyangzi got up, took the Taoists, and left the pass, heading for the Tuyuhun Pass in the southwest.
Old Zen Master: "..."
"I've cursed you, you will go to the eighteenth level of hell!"
"Amitabha, hey, if I don't go to hell, who will go to hell? Who will let the prince be someone else's little heavenly master?"
"Fellow Taoists... Bah, my Buddha is merciful. Buddhist disciples must obey orders and guard this pass. We cannot let a single beast run past. We must all be saved."
"Host, it's dangerous here, you'd better go to a safe place behind!"
"I...swear to the death to stand with all the believers."
…
Finally, Tianzhu King Dilian Wu led an army of 20,000 to protect their Khan and arrived two miles away from the pass.
Seeing that the Tucheng was densely packed with people, it was originally built to defend against the Tang people. Unexpectedly, it has now become a prison for them.
The Dilian Wu personally stepped forward and scolded the formation: "Old monk, I, the Dilian Wu, have no enmity or grudge against you. Why are you blocking my way?"
The old Zen master opened his eyes and asked: "Who is more powerful in scolding? Go ahead and scold him, don't let them take advantage of you!"
One of the fat monks immediately took orders to attack people.
But while they were scolding each other, suddenly hundreds of cavalrymen came from a distance, and aimed at their cavalry, there was a burst of arrows.
Then the men turned their horses and ran away.
Dozens of Turks fell to the ground unluckily.
Dilian Wu: "..."
"Don't chase..."
Seeing their people chasing after them, Dilian Wu quickly issued an order. This was the old monk's trap. Once they chased after him, they would definitely not be able to come back.
"Siege the city..."
The terrain of this earth city is dangerous. If you want to bypass this earth city, you have to run hundreds of miles and escape back from there, which is even more difficult.
This is a small place, and 20,000 people cannot attack together. Even if 10,000 people charge, it will be too crowded. This is why the old Zen master is willing to guard this place.
Otherwise, I would have quit long ago.
Although the Taoist side is in the southwest and behind them, it is difficult to defend there. The terrain is too flat and wide. Once Tuyuhun's army rushes in, they can only fight to the death.
Tuyuhun's cavalry rushed to the foot of the Tucheng Tower and had no choice but to dismount and start climbing the tower.
After finally climbing up, I ended up facing monk soldiers with extraordinary martial arts skills. Although they were all monks, they killed people without blinking an eye.
The first round of attack ended in failure.
Dilian Wu was dumbfounded. Are all the monks in the Tang Dynasty so powerful now?
So he sent people to bypass the North Pass and attack the South Pass. He was dumbfounded again. This group of Taoists was even more difficult to mess with.
However, bad news came from the north. After two charges with Xue Yantuo's cavalry, the 20,000 cavalry on the left were surrounded by 30,000 Tang troops.
Another cavalry force of 5,000 people appeared in the northeast and rushed towards them.
"Attack the pass with all your strength, no matter what the cost."
The Earthly Witch became angry and issued an order to kill every fish and break the net.
The Tuyuhun people desperately began to attack the two passes.
The old Zen master and Yu Yangzi were both dumbfounded. Is this old dog, Di Lian Wu, crazy?
There will be a bloody battle, and there will only be a bloody battle.
The old Zen masters all picked up the butcher's knives, and then were carried to the rear. The old Taoist Yu Yangzi grabbed the horizontal knife and slaughtered everyone.
…
As night fell, the sunset dyed the green grassland red, and Fuyun Khan was surrounded by people on a hillside, shivering.
King Tianzhu took advantage of the chaos and ran away.
More than half of the previous 20,000 people were killed or wounded, and the rest surrendered on the spot. Of the more than 20,000 Tuyuhun people who attacked the pass, only more than 6,000 were killed.
Seeing the Prime Minister, even the shaman ran away, and their Khan didn't know where he died, so he had no choice but to dismount and surrender.
The night on the plateau was very cold. Li Ke stood far away from Fuqi City, tightened his clothes, and issued military orders to Yan Yunda and Li Bingdao.
A surprise attack on Fuqi City took control of important members of the Murong family.
This war is about to come to an end.
