After driving the Turkic army into the grassland, he led his troops back to the city. In fact, it was not that Li Chengdao was unwilling to pursue, but that he really could not pursue.
Although the heavy cavalry is powerful, its mobility is a big problem.
You must know that the armor on the heavy cavalry and the horses are really thick iron plates. The physical exertion of the horse cavalry is extremely serious. Being able to charge and kill twice is already the limit. It is impossible to pursue and kill them over long distances.
And now it's snowing heavily, and the white-robed soldiers have been fighting for another night. Although their morale is high, their physical fatigue is unstoppable, so returning to the city to recuperate is the best choice.
Youzhou City, inside the General's Mansion.
Yue Fei, Jia Xu and others were all present.
The big victory last night made them all have unconcealable joy on their faces.
"Your Highness, the Qi army's defeat last night really surprised me. Jia Xu admires it."
Jia Xu said with a smile, his tone was very sincere.
During this period of time, he had been worrying about how to solve the dilemma of the Turkic army sieging the city. Who knew that Li Chengdao could easily solve it as soon as he took action.
Li Chengdao smiled lightly and said, "It's all the credit of the soldiers."
He said this not to be modest. Last night, he relied almost entirely on the 15,000 heavy cavalry to completely break through the formation of the Turkic army, and then cooperated with the white-robed army to kill the enemy bravely. Only then did the 170,000 Turkic army retreat.
"However, although the Turkic army was repelled this time, Gu believes that we should take advantage of the victory and pursue it, and take advantage of their weakest moment to eliminate the Turks as a border danger in one fell swoop."
"And the remaining Turks might as well drive them to where the Western Turks are, and let them fight with the Western Turks. This will at least keep the border intact for a hundred years."
Li Chengdao continued, his eyes sparkling.
His appetite is not only satisfied by the defeated Turkic army of 170,000, but his real goal is to completely resolve the Turkic border troubles!
After saying that, he looked at the generals and said with a smile: "Generals, are you willing to follow Gu to seal the wolf as a Xu?"
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of Yue Fei, Xue Wanche, Feng Li and even Jia Xu, a scholar-strategist, all lit up!
Seal the wolf house!
Since Hou Huo Qubing, the champion of the Han Dynasty, went deep into Mobei to slaughter hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu, drove them to the vast sea, and worshiped Tianzhao at Langjuxu Mountain and proclaimed this place as Han territory, the seal of Langjuxu has become the aspiration of all generals in the past dynasties. One of the highest honors!
However, so far, only Huo Qubing and Emperor Wen of Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties have achieved such glory, which shows how difficult it is!
Even Jia Xu, a scholar, couldn't hide his excitement when he mentioned Fenglang Juxu.
Because it is more difficult for literati to obtain military honors, let alone the highest honor of being granted the title of Xu Xu?
"The end will be willing to go!"
Yue Fei was the first to express his stance, with fighting spirit burning in his eyes.
"Wherever His Highness goes, how can he be followed by the generals?"
Xue Wanche also said with a smile.
"I am willing to lead a horse to kill the enemy for His Highness!"
Feng Li licked his lips, his eyes bright.
The three generals reached an agreement almost instantly and strengthened their determination without hesitation.
Jia Xu was agitated for a while, but he was relatively calm. After weighing the pros and cons, he said: "What His Highness said is very promising. Now that the heavy snow is coming, the Turks will definitely be severely affected. This is actually a good time to launch a large-scale attack. If If you can drive out the Turks, you will definitely achieve great results!"
"However, I think Youzhou's military strength alone is still a bit reluctant. Your Highness, why not ask for reinforcements from Jingzhou and let General Luo Yi lead his troops to rush for reinforcements? A hundred thousand troops will attack the prairie and drive the Turks out of Monan!"
After Jia Xu proposed, Li Chengdao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, saying: "Wen He is right, we can take this opportunity to completely win over Luo Yi to our side."
After talking with Jia Xu for a while, Li Chengdao decided on his strategy, and then sent people to Jingzhou to find Luo Yi.
Just ten days later, Luo Yi received a handwritten letter from Li Chengdao.
"Invite me, the Jingzhou Army, to go deep into the prairie together, drive the Turks out of Mobei, and banish the wolf to Xu?!"
After Luo Yi read Li Chengdao's letter, he was immediately surprised.
Although he knew that Li Chengdao had raided the Turkic Royal Court and greatly damaged the Turkic strength, the Turkic strength still cannot be underestimated.
Now that winter is coming, going to the steppes to start a decisive battle with the Turks at this time is really a bit...
This messenger was a trusted general under Xue Wanche. After seeing Luo Yi's expression, he immediately understood what he was thinking, and immediately said proudly: "Some time ago, a Turkic army of 260,000 troops surrounded our Youzhou City. Using a strange plan, more than 170,000 people were killed, and the remaining Turkic troops fled back."
"Our army is now as powerful as a rainbow, and the Turks are already at their weakest in history. If we attack at this time, we will definitely win a complete victory!"
As soon as this statement came out, all the generals in the camp were shocked.
Youzhou City is under siege?When did this happen!
Jingzhou is not close to Youzhou, and it is also considered a border area, so the news that spread in Chang'an did not reach Jingzhou.
In addition, Youzhou City was under siege and no news could be spread, so Luo Yi still didn't know about the Turkic army's siege in Youzhou.
But what shocked him more than this was that Li Chengdao actually repelled an army of 260,000 and annihilated 170,000 enemies? !
This is simply incredible!
If he hadn't seen that the signature on the letter was indeed Li Chengdao's name, I'm afraid Luo Yi would not believe what the general in front of him said.
After taking a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart, Luo Yi stood up immediately and said without hesitation: "When Youzhou is in danger, I, Jingzhou, cannot rush to help. How can I refuse His Highness's invitation at this time?"
“We, the Jingzhou Army, are willing to serve as His Royal Highness’s vanguard and fully support His Highness in fighting the Turks to the death!”
Luo Yi's tone was firm and firm.
The general was overjoyed when he heard this, and then he raised his hands and said, "Commander Luo understands the great righteousness, and he will definitely convey it to His Highness the Grand Sun!"
"His Royal Highness Taisun said that if Commander Luo agrees to send troops, he will send troops on January th and attack the desert. At that time, the troops will be sent to Langjuxu Mountain!"
"I will never forget it!"
Luo Yi felt that his blood was boiling all over and his eyes were extremely bright.
Fenglang Juxu, how could he be missing Luo Yi! ..
