Li Er ordered the Tang army stationed at the pass along the Great Wall to leave the pass and enter the desert to meet the king of Qin. Naturally, the generals did not dare to delay. After receiving the order, Tang troops from several passes went out one after another and entered Mobei grassland.
The Tang Dynasty does not value the Great Wall. Unlike the Qin and Han Dynasties, the threat of the Tang Dynasty to the grassland people has never relied on the Great Wall for passive defense.
If the northern nomads invade, they will go to the Matti knife and kill the nomads into the grassland.
Therefore, the Tang army stationed at several passes along the Great Wall did not have many troops. Its main task was patrol and warning, not defense.
There were only five or six thousand Tang troops at several passes. Compared with Xue yantuo's 200000 troops, it is only a drop in the ocean.
However, Tang Jun did not take Xue yantuo's threat into account. After receiving Li Er's will, the five or six thousand rode Tang Jun and immediately roared into the grassland.
It's not that these Tang soldiers are dazed and feel that they are Superman and can defeat hundreds with one, but because they, like Tang Songling, have such solid support behind them, so they don't pay attention to Xue yantuo at all.
Different from the 10000 Tang cavalry led by Li forget you, they attacked Xue yantuo privately under Li forget you's order. The thousands of Tang troops stationed at the Great Wall pass were ordered by the emperor to leave the pass. The meaning is different, and the morale is naturally different.
They don't believe that Xue yantuo people dare to fight with them. The high flying Tang flag in their hands is the embodiment of Li Er's will in Mobei grassland!
The boundary between the Tang Dynasty and Xue yantuo is the Great Wall.
In addition to Tang troops stationed here, Xue yantuo stationed thousands of cavalry.
When the Tang army swarmed out of the pass, it startled Xue yantuo people and quickly formed an array to prevent the Tang army from entering the grassland.
However, the five or six thousand Tang troops ignored the obstruction of Xue yantuo cavalry stationed outside the Great Wall. They drove their horses directly into the grassland and headed for the north.
Xue yantuo's cavalry looked at each other, but they didn't dare to really wave their swords and guns to the Tang army.
Several of Xue yantuo's captains consulted and did not know how to deal with it. They could only lead their subordinates to catch up with the Tang army and stay far behind the Tang army. At the same time, they sent a quick horse to report and ask for countermeasures.
Five or six thousand Tang soldiers didn't bother to pay attention to the Xue yantuo people behind them. They just went all the way north to find the trace of King Qin. But they didn't think about it. A few days later, they met the 1000 men and horses who Li forgot to worry and ordered to escort the captives and booty.
After a brief communication, the two sides will find out what happened.
The Tang army, who was ordered to go out to meet the king of Qin, was surprised, happy and envious.
To his surprise, the king of Qin dared to go straight to yudujun mountain to find trouble for Xue yantuo people with only 9000 people.
I'm glad that with the exact whereabouts of Qin King Li forgetful, they at least don't have to wander around on the grassland.
As for envy, it is naturally because of the thousands of prisoners of war and many booty.
As for the Xue yantuo cavalry far away with the Tang army, they naturally saw this scene, but they were surprised and angry.
How can they not be annoyed to see that paoze was captured by the Tang army? Moreover, Tang Jun escorted them all the way south. The purpose is self-evident. Naturally, he is ready to take them back to Datang.
Where are these Xue yantuo cavalry willing to let this happen?
Up to now, even if these Xue yantuo cavalry no longer want to conflict with the Tang army, they can't bear it anymore.
If they really watched the Tang Army take paoze back to the Tang Dynasty, they wouldn't have to stay in Mobei grassland. They would certainly be beheaded by the angry barbarian Khan.
So a small-scale battle broke out.
Thousands of Tang cavalry fought against the same number of Xue yantuo cavalry
The strength of the Tang Dynasty first comes from the strength of the military. With the same scale, Tang Qi is invincible in the world!
Therefore, the outcome of this small-scale conflict is self-evident.
An hour later, the defeated Xue yantuo cavalry fled North in confusion, and hundreds of prisoners of war were added to the team of the Tang army going south
After defeating Xue yantuo's cavalry, he didn't dare to delay any longer. After handing over the captured Xue yantuo's cavalry to Tang riding south, he galloped towards Yu dujun mountain.
These Tang soldiers were ordered to leave the pass. In any case, they had to meet Li forgetful, otherwise they didn't dare to go back and answer their orders.
After hearing that his Highness the king of Qin was only handsome with 9000 troops and horses, he rushed to yudujun mountain to challenge Xue yantuo's 200000 army, all the Tang soldiers felt cold behind their backs.
They don't think the king of Qin can win. Even with their thousands of people, it's a drop in the bucket compared with Xue yantuo's 200000 army.
Now they go straight to yudujun mountain and say they are going to die.
But even if the road ahead was slim, these Tang soldiers did not dare to turn their horses and go south to return to the Great Wall pass.
Whether out of Li Er's will or in order to rescue the king of Qin, they can only harden their scalp and continue to move forward. As soldiers, even if the front is a sea of swords and fire, they must break through!
If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent!
Li Qieyou, who is thousands of miles away, will not know this little battle on the grassland.
At this time, he had led 9000 troops and horses to pursue the frightened Jie Lipeng all the way. He didn't stop until he chased near Yu dujun mountain.
The scouts in the army reported that the camp of Xue yantuo's army was twenty miles ahead. According to the banner on the camp, it is certain that the Yi man Khan of Xue yantuo went out to fight in person and is now in the camp.
Li forgot his worries and was not arrogant enough. He ran directly to fight with more than 100000 Xue yantuo army.
After ordering people to settle down in the camp, he led Mito and a group of dandies to a nearby hill, ready to see the enemy in person.
However, when the people, under the personal guard and the escort of the episode, climbed up the hill and looked through the telescope at Xue yantuo camp, their faces became quite ugly.
Even if Li forgets to worry about how stupid Xue yantuo is when he gets off the horse cavalry array and where his Achilles' heel is, he can't help but worry when he sees Xue yantuo's camp not far away.
With more than 100000 troops, the camp extends for miles!
Looking around, Xue yantuo's banners were flying in the wind, and countless cavalry were galloping around the camp as a warning.
In Xue yantuo's camp, people are crowded, and the sound of horses neighing can be heard all the time
Rao Shi Li's psychological quality is good, but he still feels shocked when facing the camp of more than 100000 people with his own eyes.
In fact, Li forgets to worry is not that he doesn't know what the camp of more than 100000 troops is like. Before, the western expedition led by him had as many as 150000 people, which is not inferior to the Xue yantuo army in front of him.
But Tang Jun's camp, he has never climbed high and looked into the distance.
Being in the camp, I didn't realize that the camp of hundreds of thousands of troops would be so shocking.
Chumo and others look ugly at the moment.
Chai Lingwu couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Ziyou, we really want to fall thousands of people to attack Xue yantuo's army? Will we consider it again?"
Mituo also hurriedly said, "Your Highness, you have taught Xue yantuo enough lessons. What if we go south immediately and return to Datang? If we want to go ahead with light clothes, Xue yantuo's army can't catch up even if we want to catch up."
A group of dandies also began to talk and persuade one after another. Even ah die had the same attitude.
Although he wanted to avenge the Hult tribe, he was crazy to attack more than 100000 people with thousands of people.
Li forgot to worry about being persuaded by everyone, but he beat the drum in his heart.
Can we really win this war?
Ma Dan, don't you talk nonsense in history books?
Can Li Ji really defeat tens of thousands of Xue yantuo cavalry with 6000 men and horses?
Li forgot to worry about his face and felt that he really made a fatal mistake
