Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

Chapter 292 Reinforcement Arrives, The Last Straw

But this time, along with their charge, they heard a more powerful sound of hooves.

Different from the general cavalry charge, this time the sound of metal knocking in the hooves of the horses was extra exciting!
"The reinforcements are here!"

I don't know who yelled, and then Li Daoyan and the entire Datang army were boiling.

When they were most desperate, Chai Shao came with the vanguard.

Then, Chai Shao's troops swept the entire battlefield like tigers, and the Tuyuhun troops, which were in a chaotic formation, fell into chaos again.

However, in the tuyuhun army in this chaos, there was one person who was still very sober.

This person is Tianzhu King.

He had expected that the Tang army would have reinforcements, so he specially reserved a hand for the Tang army's reinforcements.

He could not let this army take action before, just to crush Tang Jun's last hope at this time.

It has to be said that King Tianzhu is also a master at manipulating people's hearts. If Chai Shao's reinforcements are really defeated, then not only Li Daoyan, who is out of the city to fight, will lose his fighting spirit, but even the defenders who are still in the city will surrender immediately .

However, King Tianzhu counted the beginning, but not the end.

After their reserves collided head-on with Chai Shao's cavalry, his rear [-] cavalry were routed.

The fighting power of the cavalry of the Tang Army far exceeded King Tianzhu's imagination.

Seeing the flexible movements of the cavalry on horseback, King Tianzhu shouted: "Impossible, absolutely impossible."

"It's freezing cold today, how could Tang Jun still have such dexterous movements!"

"Even I, the Tuyuhun warrior, was restrained by the heavy winter clothes. How could Tang Jun be so flexible!"

But the facts are in front of us, whether King Tianzhu believes it or not, his five thousand cavalry were defeated.

Originally, these five thousand cavalry were the last straw that King Tianzhu was going to use to crush the Tang army, but they did not expect that their defeat would become a reminder for the Tuyuhun army.

After the cavalry was defeated, the original battle formation was torn to pieces by Chai Shao, and the sober Tuyuhun soldiers were routed.

The victory in this battle directly shattered Tuyuhun's offensive and Zhengjun's ideas, not only harvested a large amount of supplies, but also brought safety to Minzhou.

Murong Fuyun retreated a hundred miles in a row before reorganizing his troops.

After some counting, Tuyuhun's army decreased by [-]%.

Faced with such a situation, Murong Fuyun already had the intention of retreating, but at this time King Tianzhu spoke again.

"My lord, Tang Jun is lucky this time. The sudden appearance of Chai Shao's troops disrupted our plan."

"But my king has also seen that there are not many Tang troops who came to reinforce this time, and we still have an absolute advantage in numbers."

"In my opinion, after the Tang army won the first battle, they will definitely attack rashly. We only need to pretend to be invincible and lead them into the encirclement to wipe out the enemy army."

"As long as the Tang army who attacked rashly is eliminated, Hezheng County City and even the entire Minzhou City will be at your fingertips."

King Tianzhu's words just hit Murong Fuyun's heart, so Murong Fuyun also issued an order to rectify the army and fight the Tang army again.

The news that Tuyuhun's troops were reorganizing came to the Tang army's camp, but Chai Shao showed a bloodthirsty smile on his face.

"Hey, I'm not afraid of them daring to fight, but I'm afraid of them fleeing back."

However, Li Daoyan on the side was somewhat worried: "Mr. Huo, Tuyuhun revives the troops this time. I think we should continue to defend in the city."

"Now with the new force you brought, there is no problem in defending."

Hearing this, Chai Shao shook his head and said, "Daoyan, this time I brought all elite cavalry, and only when fighting in the wild can their strengths be brought into play."

"It would be a waste to let them jump off their horses and defend the city."

Li Daoyan naturally understood what Chai Shao said, but he also had his own thoughts.

"Mr. Huo, the horses must have been worn out after such a long-distance raid. I'm afraid there will be problems if you rush out to fight against the horses."

Hearing Li Daoyan's worry, Chai Shao smiled and said: "Daoyan is worrying too much. My cavalry have all installed horseshoes, and the consumption of horseshoes has been minimal. After a few days of rest, we can fight again."

Three days later, Tuyuhun's troops approached the city again, but this time they were facing Chai Shao's [-]-strong cavalry.

During these three days, Chai Shao's follow-up troops arrived.

If it is said that there was still a slight chance of Tuyuhun in the last battle, they were suppressed from the beginning to the end of this battle, without the slightest chance of winning.

Tang Jun's is not just a simple change in the number of people, but also a qualitative change brought about by the quantitative change, and it can even be said to be a leap.

Especially when the cavalry charged without hesitation, Murong Fuyun turned pale with fright.

"Tang Jun sprints like this, they don't want these horses anymore!"

However, no one answered his question, only the infinite charge in front of him.

After this defeat, Tuyuhun's army was reduced by half again, and Murong Fuyun felt that he was retreating that night after taking stock.

However, King Tianzhu stopped him again.

"My king, you can leave and return to the gathering place in Qinghai Lake, but can you leave the troops behind?"

"The minister wants to make the territory of Tang Dynasty uneasy."

At this moment, King Tianzhu was ready to fight guerrillas. With the superb performance of the Qinghai horse, Tang Jun was exhausted.

However, King Tianzhu's thoughts had long been expected by Chai Shao.

Tianzhu King's harassment didn't last for a few days, and several looting troops were lost.

It turned out that after all the troops arrived, Chai Shao changed his cautious and cautious approach in the past and divided the 2 troops into ten teams to attack from all directions, beating the Tuyuhun troops who were still trying to fight guerrilla warfare against the Tang army and fled in embarrassment.

If Li Shimin hadn't ordered Chai Shao not to invade Tuyuhun's territory before departure, lest he be ambushed, Chai Shao would have already entered by now.

Although Chai Shao did not receive an order to attack Tuyuhun, he did not intend to lead his troops back to Beijing.

Through the information collected along the way, he set his sights on Liang Guo, a separatist force located in the other direction of Minzhou.

The emperor of the Liang Kingdom was called Liang Shidu. He was born in a noble family in Longyou, and he was originally a general of Yingyangfu in the Sui Dynasty.

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Liang Shidu, who was dismissed from office and returned to his hometown, took advantage of the chaos in the world to rebel and took control of Shuofang.

At this time, all the heroes in the world are rising together. Compared with Li Yuan and his son, Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande and others, Master Liang knows that he is no match.

After proclaiming himself emperor, Liang Shidu simply refused to do anything, and continued to profess his ministers directly to the Turks, and was canonized by the Turks as "Dadu Vija Khan" and "Son of Jieshi".

It was precisely because of the strength of the Turks that Li Tang spared this small and peaceful country when he unified the world.

However, under the command of the Turks, Liang Shidu also invaded the Central Plains many times and confronted the Tang army many times.

So General Li Tang never forgot about this small country.

This time, Chai Shao led his troops to the expedition, and after defeating Tuyuhun, he set his sights on Liang Shidu again.

He felt that the time had finally come to take down Liang Shidu in one fell swoop.
