Chapter 280
When Liu Rengui and other generals saw Chai Shao and began to talk about business, they also put down their wine bowls and obeyed.

Chai Shao went straight to the point and said: "Today afternoon, the Turkic Khan sent General Zhi Shili to lead [-] cavalry to garrison Heicheng in an attempt to cut off the retreat of our Hedong army!"

Su Dingfang's eyes lit up, and he said: "General Chai, the last general is willing to lead [-] cavalry to intercept the Turkic soldiers and horses of the Zhishisili Department!"

"Su Dingfang, Zhishenli is a close friend of Jieli Khan. His troops are all elite Turkic soldiers. I'm afraid [-] cavalry from the Tang army will not do it!"

Chai Shao stared at Su Dingfang seriously.

Su Dingfang pointed to Liu Rengui: "General Chai, the Zhongzhou navy has good armor. If the general has a thousand sets of armor like that, even if the Turkic Khan sends [-] troops, the general will not be afraid!"

Chai Shao and other Tang generals looked at Liu Rengui who was sitting behind Yuchihuan.

All of a sudden, Liu Rengui became the focus of everyone's attention.

Liu Rengui didn't expect that Su Dingfang would stare at his Tiefutu, so he immediately replied: "Su Dingfang, the Tiefutu armor was given to the Zhongzhou Navy by Little Commander Yuchi, you need to ask Little Commander Yuchi!"

"Liu Rengui is right, the iron stupa belongs to me!"

Yu Chihuan stood up and looked at Chai Shao with a smile on his face.

Chai Shao clasped his fists and said, "Su Dingfang needs the Iron Buddha armor of Yuchi Xiaodu to deal with the Turkic cavalry. I wonder if you can give the Iron Buddha armor to Su Dingfang for a few days?"

Su Dingfang also stared at Yuchihuan intently.

He hoped that Yuchihuan would agree to Chai Shao's request.

Chai Shao is the general manager of the Hedong Road, and he has the right to dispatch all the soldiers, horses and ordnance of the Hedong Road!

But Yu Chihuan is no ordinary governor of Zhongzhou, he is not only the son of Duke E, Yu Chi Gong, but also the son-in-law of Princess Changshan!

Standing behind Yuchihuan are Li Er and Yuchi Gong, two big mountains, Chai Shao dare not offend!
The most important thing is that Yu Chihuan himself is the third-rank governor of Zhongzhou. He will definitely be promoted to the official rank again after returning to Chang'an City in three years.

Moreover, Yu Chihuan is likely to succeed the seriously ill Du Ruhai as Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty.

Chai Shao dare not offend a future rising star of Chang'an city!
When Yu Chihuan saw Chai Shao facing him, he didn't make things difficult for him anymore, and immediately nodded and said, "I'm willing to lend five hundred sets of iron pagodas for Su Dingfang to use!"

Su Dingfang was surprised and delighted and said: "Thank you Yuchi, the little captain, for Chengquan!"

When Chai Shao saw that Yuchi Huan had already lent five hundred sets of iron Buddhas, he immediately nodded and said, "I thank you, Captain Yuchi, for his willingness to lend the armor of the Iron Buddhas!"

When Liu Rengui learned that Yuchihuan had lent five hundred sets of iron stupas to Su Dingfang, he originally wanted to dissuade Yuchihuan, but he still didn't dare to disobey Yuchihuan's idea in the end.

Yu Chihuan would not lend the Tiefutu to Su Dingfang for no reason, Liu Rengui knew this well,

"Could it be that Captain Yuchi wants to befriend Su Dingfang?"

Thinking of these two shining eyes, Liu Rengui felt that Su Dingfang must be a general, that's why Yuchihuan valued him.

Then Yu Chihuan ordered: "Liu Rengui, you hand over the five hundred sets of iron pagodas to Su Dingfang to use tonight!"

"The last will obey!"

Liu Rengui took the order without hesitation.

Chai Shao then also ordered: "Su Dingfang, tomorrow will lead the [-] elite riders to the Black City to intercept the main force of the army!"

"The last general obeys orders!" Su Dingfang stood up and took orders with confidence.

Chai Shao then discussed with Yuchihuan about tomorrow's march.

Tomorrow, the main force of the Tang army on the East Road will go to Yulin as planned, and Su Dingfang will be responsible for defending the safety of the Tang army's rear wing.

If the Turkic general stationed in Heicheng loses his mind and sends troops to attack the Tang army, Su Dingfang needs to send troops to intercept!
After discussing tomorrow's battle, Chai Shao dismissed the banquet.

After Liu Rengui left the Tang army base camp, he returned to the Zhongzhou navy to extract the iron pagoda and give it to Su Dingfang.

This time Su Dingfang also wisely took [-] Great Tang Jingqi to the Wuya Boat to receive the Iron Buddha.

Half an hour later, Su Ding stood in front of [-] Iron Buddha heavy armored cavalry wearing full body armor.

Iron Buddha's only flaws are under the eyes and crotch!
However, when the two armies were at war, it was extremely difficult for the enemy to attack these two parts of the Tiefutu.

Su Dingfang himself also wore a pair of black iron and black armored iron pagodas, and he ordered his own soldiers to attack him.

Xue Rengui obtained the test results of Tiefutu's invulnerability to swords and guns, and he was full of praise for Tiefutu's impeccable defense!
Although Liu Rengui's Zhongzhou navy lost [-] iron pagodas, its combat effectiveness is still strong.

Even if the Turks sent another [-] Turkic cavalry to attack the Zhongzhou Navy, Liu Rengui would dare to lead the Iron Buddha to fight!
Su Dingfang was very grateful to Yuchihuan when he left Wuyachuan.

Yuchihuan didn't care about his attitude, he only hoped that the Tang army would win, and he had nothing else to ask for.

Liu Rengui, Xue Rengui, and Cheng Chumo also gained a lot of military merit today, so they have another chance to be promoted to official positions.

Since the Turkic cavalry in a radius of ten miles in Binhe City were all wiped out by the Tang army, Yuchihuan didn't need to arrange for Xue Rengui and the others to be on duty tonight!

But Chai Shao didn't dare to be careless, so he sent his lieutenant general to lead [-] fine riders to patrol the grassland within a radius of ten miles that night.

If the Turkic cavalry attacked, these five thousand Tang cavalry would go to intercept it!

……

Early the next morning, Su Dingfang led [-] cavalry to leave the base camp and head to the Black City to defend against the enemy!

Chai Shao left [-] infantry in Binhe City and led [-] Tang troops to Yulin.

Yu Chihuan then ordered Liu Rengui to lead the Zhongzhou navy to Yulin.

Yulin's current guard is also Jieli Khan's personal general, his name is Ashina Simo!

There are currently [-] Turkic cavalry stationed in Yulin!

Ashina Simo was originally a general under the command of the Turkic prince Ashnatur. Now that Ashnatur has been captured, he can only ask Jieli Khan for help.

It's a pity that Jieli Khan's lair is now also attacked by Li Jing, the marching chief of Guannei Road. Jieli Khan's troops are stretched and there is no way to support Ashina Simo!

In order to reach Yulin as soon as possible, Chai Shao simply handed over the army's food and grass to the Zhongzhou Navy for transshipment!

Those folks who were in charge of transporting grain and grass had to stay in Binhe City to build the city.

These civilian husbands are currently serving hard labor, and Chai Shao no longer allows them to take the risk of marching. They are very satisfied with Chai Shao's arrangement.

At noon that day, the Zhongzhou navy arrived in Yulin first!

At the same time, [-] Tang cavalry also arrived in Yulin.

As soon as Tang Jun arrived in Yulin, he began to know the Turkic scout cavalry within a radius of ten miles.

In the afternoon of that day, the Turkic garrison in Yulin was cut off by the Tang army's food and communication routes.

Ashina Simo, the Turkic special agent stationed in Yulin City, was furious, and immediately led [-] Turkic cavalry out of the city to attack the Tang cavalry.

As a result, he was attacked by the crossbow arrows of the Tang army as soon as he left the city. He suffered heavy losses and his morale plummeted.

The [-] Tang Army then under the command of Chai Shao split into two groups to attack the Turkic cavalry.

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, Ashina Simo had to retreat to Yulin City with the remnants of the defeated generals.

In this battle, one thousand Turks were killed, three thousand were injured, and the losses were heavy.

And the number of cavalry deaths in the Tang Dynasty was single digits, which is insignificant!
Tang Jun won a complete victory!

In the evening, the [-] Tang infantry who were in charge of attacking the city finally arrived at Yulin City.

That night, Tang Jun set up camp near the bank of the Yellow River in Yulin City!
The Zhongzhou navy transported the food and grass needed by the [-] Tang troops ashore for them to eat!

Yuchihuan then ordered the Zhongzhou Navy to recharge their batteries and prepare for landing operations tomorrow.
