The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

The annihilation of the 5,000 Turkic front troops was a very encouraging thing for the Tang Dynasty.

Moreover, the effect of explosives was also revealed.

With the effect, Li Shimin had confidence, and even if he fought, he would have a greater chance of winning.

This time, he would definitely not let the Turks get the benefits during the negotiation as in the past.

Li Shimin was proud of himself. This time, when he faced Jie Li and Tu Li again, he would be more justified.

If it really didn't work, it wouldn't matter if all the 1,600 captives were killed. It would be a waste of food to keep them.

Of course, the premise of killing is that the two sides can't reach an agreement. If Jie Li doesn't value these people, then these people will be useless.

He won't use the food of the people of the Tang Dynasty to feed these unfaithful beasts who are worse than pigs and dogs.

Li Shimin has been holding back his anger in his heart. He has been enduring the Turks for many years.

In addition to the battle report, Li Shimin also had several secret letters in his hand, which were sent by Li Wu, mainly reporting on Li Fu's situation.

But last night, the situation was quite dangerous. Li Wu and several guards had been guarding Li Fu closely, and there was no time to write letters back to Chang'an City.

As a result, Li Fu made such a big trouble that night.

He actually led 500 people to attack the camp?

This bastard boy has grown up!

What did he tell him before he left? He just led people to help arrange gunpowder in the army, and hide far away when fighting.

This little skill of riding a horse was learned from following him. How dare he lead people to wander around on the battlefield with half-baked skills?

At this moment, Li Shimin was extremely glad that he let Li Wu take people to guard Li Fu, otherwise who knows what would happen.

But now, it's okay as long as he is fine.

Moreover, the first battle was a victory and a great achievement.

It's pretty good.

Li Shimin was very pleased.

Although his cousin did not grow up in the mansion, he is very capable and will be able to take on important tasks in the future.

But he is still young and needs to be polished.

Although he usually says that he does not want to get involved in troublesome things, this kid really does get involved when there is something to do.

Li Shimin has a very good impression of Li Fu.

It is also a blessing for the old Li family that there are capable people among the royal family.

As for being lazy on weekdays, just let him be.

The army returned to the camp of Jingyang County. Li Fu greeted Yuchi Gong and asked the cavalry brothers who had been running all night last night to go back and rest quickly, and asked the brothers in logistics to prepare the best horse grass to feed the war horses.

Like people, they are also the heroes of this victory, so they should not be treated unfairly.

War horses are also a soldier's comrades. If you don't even cherish your own war horses, you can't expect such soldiers to fight.

"We've been busy all night, let's rest quickly." Yuchi Gong said, "Leave the rest to me."

"Okay." Li Fu responded.

When he turned around and went out, he thought of another thing.

"By the way, General Manager, we found a lot of women from our Tang Dynasty in the Turkic camp. They must have been abducted by the Turkic people." Li Fu said, "Please settle them down as appropriate. They are all poor people."

Yuchi Gong nodded.

"I know, this kind of thing is not uncommon."

Yuchi Gong sighed as he spoke.

I don't know if their homes are still there.

The Turkic beasts killed and looted, and countless Tang people died and injured wherever they passed.

The only thing we can do is to let the scouts take a look at the situation of the villages they passed by when they were investigating the Turkic army, and then ask if there were any missing women at home.

If the homes of these women are still there, it would be easy to say...

"Thank you, General Manager." Li Fu bowed his hands.

"This is also my job." Yuchi Gong responded.

The first battle was over, and Li Fu was indeed tired after tossing and turning all night.

He was almost torn apart by the horse galloping.

But he was the backbone of the 500 people and their leader. Even if it was uncomfortable, he had to grit his teeth and carry on, and he couldn't lose his temper in front of his brothers.

At this time, he returned to the tent, relaxed, and his whole body was sore. All the fatigue came up.

After asking someone to help take off his armor, Li Fu lay on the camp bed and fell asleep.

Li Wu came in to check the situation, carefully covered Li Fu with a quilt, and then went to guard outside the tent again.

He and several guards took turns to rest and guard Li Fu.

In addition, he had to write a letter to His Majesty to report the situation here.

The Turkic army.

The scouts in front had not sent back any news for a long time, and Jie Li was alsoWondering.

Why is there no movement?

Therefore, a lot of scouts were sent out early in the morning to find out the news from the front and to contact the front army.

In the afternoon, the people sent out came back.

They brought back a bad news that made Jie Li's eyes black.

Their front army was defeated by the Tang Dynasty.

Five thousand people, a full five thousand people, including cavalry and infantry, including logistics personnel and scouts.

Not a single one was left.

The place where the camp was originally set up was in a mess, with only nearly seven hundred corpses left. The scene can be said to be very tragic.

The scouts were afraid that the Tang army had not gone far, so they did not dare to continue to rush forward. After seeing the tragic situation in the camp, they hurried back.

Jie Li was so angry that he threw the wine glass in his hand to the ground.

"Ashidewumeichu, this useless man, was defeated by the Tang army with 5,000 soldiers, and his whereabouts are unknown!" Jie Li found Tuli and told him the news angrily.

The scouts did not find the body of Ashdewumeichu, so no one knew whether he was alive or dead.

But the loss of 5,000 soldiers made Jie Li very distressed, including 2,000 elite cavalry, all of whom were the best warriors of the Turks!

His heart was bleeding.

"Five thousand people, all killed by the Tang army?" Tuli asked with wide eyes.

"The scouts came back to report the news, saying that they saw the place where Ashdewumeichu camped, with more than 700 bodies inside, the camp had been demolished, and blood was everywhere." Jie Li said angrily.

"What about the others? Were they captured by the Tang army?" Tuli asked.

"It's not clear yet. I've sent scouts to explore further." Jie Li said, "But we'll soon face the Tang army."

If they were still full of confidence when they just went south.

Then now that he knows that the 5,000 front troops were annihilated by the Tang army, his confidence is not so strong.

The Tang army is cunning, and Li Shimin is a very good fighter.

If he hadn't taken advantage of the instability within the Tang Dynasty, he wouldn't have easily gone south to take advantage of the situation.
