Chapter 487: Unprepared to attack the enemy(1/2)

The wind was blowing, and the flags were rolling. On the grassland, countless cavalry figures were revealed on the grassland; the wind carried the sound of the horses' hooves hitting the ground, and it was clearly sent to the ears of the Khitan people. The four cavalry were like a torrent.

The cavalry poured from west to east towards the Khitan camp of Chanzhenshui, rolling and rumbling!

The four tributaries converged on a large flat land in front of the hill to form a long tide that was ready to go, and its speed gradually slowed down.

This is the 40,000 Turkic army led by Yang Ji.

After walking more than ten miles to the southeast, they walked up a gentle and low grassy slope, and finally saw a large dome tent more than ten miles away in the distance. They were densely packed in the west of Chuanzhen River, which was the camp of the Khitan army.

Further south, there is Longshan City of Great Sui Ying Prefecture with its flags fluttering.

The arrival of this large army has already attracted the attention of the Khitan people. In fact, when the Turks entered the country, it attracted the attention of the Khitan people. However, because they used the slogan of supporting the Khitan and helping the Khitan fight against the Sui army, the Khitan people did not

Not at all wary.

The Khitan chief Xiwandan Zhangke was overjoyed when he heard the news. If Yang Lun had not led his army to Longshan City and Li Zixiong had gone north to attack the Khitan defenders on the Liao Waterway, he would have gone to greet the Turkic army commander in person.

, the second prince Ashina Qilifu set it up.

The "Second Prince Ashina Chirifushu" was reasonable and very considerate of their difficulties. He did not ask the chiefs to greet them. He just asked them to just hold the camp and prevent the Sui army from going north. This move,

Xiwandan Zhangke and others were deeply moved and became even more grateful to the Turks.

Although they could not leave or go, Siwandan Zhangke ordered the Yuling tribe, Rilian tribe, He Dahe tribe, and Li tribe that the Turkic army passed by to treat them generously and asked them to satisfy the Turkic army no matter what.

Soldiers' demands.

This also allowed the Turkic Army to be served comfortably like an uncle along the way.

Originally, Yang Ji planned to enter the country in the name of rescuing the Khitan, and then take advantage of the confrontation between the Khitan army and Yang Lun in Longshan City to capture the depleted Yuling, Rilian, He Dahe, and Li tribes.

He and Yang Lunlai "cooperated with each other inside and outside" to defeat the Khitan army. But surprisingly, the Khitan people were completely undefended against the "Turkic army".

Such an obvious thing also made Yang Ji realize that the mastermind behind the Khitan invasion to the south was the Turks, not the Guanlong nobles and Goguryeo. However, Ashina Qilifushe seemed to have no idea at all.

It can also be seen from this that this was the work of Qimin Khan or Ashina Duoji, and Ashina was completely abandoned after Li Fushe; otherwise, such a major event would not have happened.

have no idea.

Coming to this conclusion, Yang Ji simply changed his tactics. Instead of attacking the ineffective headquarters of the Yuling, Rilian, and Li tribes, he took advantage of the situation and came here in a big way. As long as they unexpectedly eliminated the Khitan army here, then

The base camp of the Eight Khitan tribes can be easily captured.

"Your Majesty, I have sent the Khitan patrol sent away." Ashina came to Yang Ji as soon as possible, and said to Yang Ji excitedly: "I think it won't take long, Xiwandan Zhangke and others will

I will come to greet you personally... Hehe, as long as we kill Siwandan Zhangke and other chiefs, the rest of the war will be easy."

"What the second prince said is true; once we break through the unsuspecting enemy camp, everything will be easy to handle." Yang Ji withdrew his gaze from the Khitan camp in the distance and looked at the face of Ashina Lifushu.

, seeing that he could not suppress his excitement, he smiled leisurely and said: "Destroy the Khitan army, the Yuling tribe, the Rilian tribe, the He Dahe tribe, and the Li tribe. The population and wealth of the four tribes are also yours. How do you get it?

, I don’t care how you kill him.”

The territory of the Khitan is in the shape of a big "?", like a big foot facing the west. From west to east, the "foot" parts are the Yuling tribe, the Rilian tribe, the Li tribe, and the Hedahe tribe;

The eastern part of the "foot sole" and the "calf" part, from bottom to top, are the Xiwandan Department, the Fufuyu Department, the Pijiu Department, and the Tuliuyu Department.

After Yang Ji's division, about 40% of the Khitan's population was given to the Turks. This was also the 40% "spoils" promised by Yang Ji.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." When Ashinalifushe and several captains of ten thousand men heard this, they were overjoyed. When they passed by the four major tribes, they hardly saw many young men stationed in their headquarters. As long as they

The Khitan army in front of them was wiped out, and the four tribes could easily be captured.

King Wei is very particular.

What a good person!

"But I have a request." Yang Ji said.

Ashinaqi Lifushu said quickly: "Please give me your instructions, Your Majesty."

Yang Ji said: "The women and children of the Sui Dynasty who were captured by the Khitan must be returned to me. You cannot bully them."

"As it should be!" Ashinalifushe promised repeatedly.

"That's good, let's all prepare for battle!" Yang Ji said: "As long as I kill the leader of the bandits, you will immediately attack the Khitan camp from the left and right sides."

"Yes!" Ashina Qi Lifushu, Qi Gu Tiexian and others followed the order and retreated. They urgently summoned the commanders under his command and issued instructions to prepare for battle.

When ready, the army slowly advanced towards the Khitan army camp in a wild goose formation.

After the Khitan chief Xiwandan Zhangke received the news that the Sui army was marching northward, he ordered eight young men to mobilize, resulting in a camp of 60,000 to 70,000 people. The camp stretched for more than ten miles. Due to the enemy of the Khitan army,

The army is mainly located in Longshan City in the south and Liaoshuidao in the east, so they focus on guarding against these two directions; while the west and north of the camp are no different from ordinary tribes, even the camp gates are

Not established.

When the army ran four or five miles away, the main camp of the Khitan army became increasingly clear.

The person walking in front is the white wolf-headed banner representing the identity of Ashina Qilifushu, the Central Army of the Turkic Army. However, at this time, the soldiers of the central army are all dressed up by the Sui army. On the left and right are Ashina Qili.

The 10,000-strong army led by Feshe, the 10,000-strong vassal army led by Qigugu Tiexian, and the other two 10,000-strong army were lagging behind later.

Yang Ji and the Sui army's former troops also wore Turkic clothes outside their armor.

Not long after, a cavalry team of more than 300 people came flying from the Khitan military camp with flags.

As the two sides approached, Yang Ji could clearly see the crowd running in front. These people, like ordinary Khitan people, all wore hairbands.

It is a custom of the Khitan people to shave the hair on top of their heads, leaving only the hair on the temples and forehead for decoration. Some people let the temples hang loose, while others comb the two locks of hair into a

Braids of different sizes; Khitan women generally have this hairstyle, but they love and understand beauty better than men. They do not shave the hair on the top of their heads, but braid it into many small braids that fall freely.

The leader is a burly bearded man. The difference between him and the others is the earrings on his ears. The earrings of the person behind him are silver earrings, while his are gold earrings, which shine with golden light in the sun. From this point,

Yang Ji then knew that this man was Xiwandan Zhangke, the Khitan chief.

When he saw the other party suddenly stop and stagnate, he knew that his 'flying geese formation' had aroused the other party's vigilance.

Immediately speeding up, the one-man horse rode out, drew out an iron arrow, stringed it up, suddenly pulled the wind and thunder bow, and fired an arrow at Siwandan Zhangke. Siwandan Zhangke saw

The opponent's horse was rushing towards him, but there were only a few riders behind him to escort the white wolf-headed banner. Just when he was changing from vigilance to relaxation, how could he have expected that the opponent would suddenly release an arrow?

The iron arrow that shot through the air had pierced his chest, and he fell off his horse with a scream.

The wind and snow bow Yang Ji used was a five-stone bow with strong bow power and long range. The arrow penetrated Siwandan Zhangke's body and also penetrated a general behind him. Senhan's arrow cluster came from his

His back was exposed, and he screamed and fell off the horse.

The sudden change shocked the Khitan chiefs and generals who came to greet them. Then a burst of shouts rang out, and the Sui soldiers who followed Yang Ji galloped out on horseback, pulling the triggers of the horned crossbows one after another. A black cloud of arrows filled the air.

Then he poured the stupid Khitan army away.

This Khitan army company had no time to turn their horses, so they were shot to death one after another.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ...", the Chinese army started to take action. Seeing that the "decapitation operation" was a complete success, the commanding soldiers behind Yang Ji blew the horn of attack.

In an instant, the horns sounded loudly, and the Turkic soldiers' killing roars shook the sky. More than 40,000 Sui-Turkish coalition troops rushed towards their respective targets like wild geese with their wings spread, and the momentum was like an overwhelming force!

Although the Khitan army's rear camp did not have much protection, it was war time after all. When patrolling the camp, the defenders heard shouts and the sound of horse hooves that sounded like the earth was falling apart. They also saw the Turkic army swooping in and hurriedly sounded the bell.

The alarm sounded, but within a moment, the soldiers rushed towards the camp and broke into it.

Suddenly, the entire Khitan army camp exploded!

One by one, the Turkic soldiers rushed into the camp like wolves and tigers, and met the Khitan soldiers who had reacted in close combat, killing each other. In terms of individual combat capabilities, the Khitan soldiers were not inferior to the Turkic soldiers in any way. But including Xiwandan Zhang

The chiefs and senior generals including Ke were all "beheaded" by Yang Ji, and the rear camp was a safe place, so the Khitan camp was not very vigilant about making plans.

Although they were not afraid of death, they lost the command of their general and fell completely into chaos fighting on their own.

Forty thousand Turkic cavalry brandished swords and galloped and killed in the Khitan camp. The Khitan soldiers were hacked and trampled to death one after another. In just a moment, the back camp was covered with corpses and rivers of blood flowed, turning it into a hell on earth.

.

The Khitan soldiers retreated steadily and fled deeper into the camp.

.....

The chief of the Fufuyu tribe, Fufuyu Xirong, was relatively lucky. He was responsible for the defense of the Sui army in Longshan City today and was the former camp commander, so he did not follow the chief, Xiwandan Zhangke and others to greet the "reinforcements".

In the past few days, they had many duels with the Sui soldiers who left the city in front of the battle formation, but they were defeated by Yang Lun every time. However, due to their large number, Yang Lun just gave up every day and did not challenge them hard.

Khitan camp.

The originally high morale of the Khitan army suffered a heavy blow after experiencing the heavy blow of the annihilation of Daheduluo. When the news of the arrival of 40,000 Turkic reinforcements spread throughout the army, morale recovered a little. However, these days

Since then, they have been defeated by the Sui army every day, and thousands of elite soldiers have died, causing their morale to be severely damaged again.

When Xiwandan Zhangke went to greet the "reinforcements", Fu Fuyu Xirong was discussing defense matters with the former army general in the central army tent of the front camp, telling the generals the news that the reinforcements had arrived, and asked them to

Pass this good news on to boost morale.

While everyone was chatting and laughing, the back camp suddenly erupted with shouts of death, the sound of horse hooves, and cries. Everyone immediately looked at each other for a moment, and came out of the tent to watch.

When they ran out of the tent, they saw a group of cavalry galloping towards them on horseback.

"What happened in the rear camp?" Fu Fuyu Xirong asked loudly.

"Chief Fu Fuyu, something bad has happened!" The centurion who led the army cried loudly, facing his pale face: "Tujue, the damn Turkic army has entered our camp, and the rear camp is in chaos.

"

"Hiss..." Everyone took a breath of cold air. They did not expect that the Turkic soldiers would do this. The back camp was unprepared. The Turks attacked them unexpectedly, and there were many wounded soldiers in the back camp who would be killed.
