The army of civilian collars came to Yishui, and the joy was thunderous. ///Of course, the rotation was + such as Qin Shubao, Cheng Yaojin, Shu Zhanwei, etc., who continued to lead troops to fight against Li Tang.

The army was rotated in an orderly manner. The news of the rotation of the army in Xiliang had reached Tang Camp.

When Li Shimin learned the news, he was silent for a long time. He was originally on the front line of Jumahe, but the Xiliang Army had changed its strategy and blocked the road with heavy snow. Qin Shubao asked Shu Zhanwei to stand firm in Jumahe Henan. He rushed to Yishui and Cheng Yaojin to fight side by side, striving to put pressure on Yishui's Li Daozong and seek breakthrough points.

According to Qin Shubao's strategy, it would be fine if Li Shimin was allowed to march straight in. After all, most of Hebei has been occupied by Xiao Buyi. Li Shimin is still able to defend Youzhou with his troops, but to seize Hebei, he does not have the strength. As long as the Xiliang army cuts off the connection between Youzhou and Hedong, it will be difficult for Li Shimin to send troops in winter.

Li Shimin knew that Qin Shubao rushed to Yishui. As Qin Shubao expected, he did not dare to send troops on his own, but he was afraid that he would be in a hurry. However, the pressure on Yishui increased sharply. Li Shimin was afraid that Li Daozong would not be able to resist, so he ordered Chai Shao to station Jumahe and personally support Li Daozong. Not long after he arrived in Yishui, he heard the news that Xiao Buyi personally led his troops to change defenses. Li Shimin's heart trembled slightly, thinking that Xiao Buyi, Qin Shubao, and Cheng Yaojin joined forces again. Could it be that he wanted to invade Youzhou on a large scale at the end of the year?

It is not easy to send troops in winter because there are too many situations to consider. But in terms of distance, Dongdu is quite close to Yishui compared to Guanzhong. In addition, Xu Shiji and Du Ruhui's strong operational capabilities can ensure that the Western Liang army is dispatched in an orderly manner. When fighting Xu Yuanlang and fighting Dou Jiande, the Western Liang army had formed a complete transportation system. This time when we came to Yishui, the front line was only a little longer. But the situation in Li Tang was very different. The majestic Taihang cut off the connection between Li Shimin and Guanzhong, and Jing|Guan was stuck by Xiao Buyi's heavy troops. Li Shimin had received the order of Li Yuandi and must stick to it until the beginning of spring before there was troops to support. At present, Li Shimin was exactly the same as in Baibi, but this time, the reinforcements were not behind him, but in the distant Hedong!

Although Li Shimin was anxious and unrest, he was in charge of the camp and his expression was as usual. However, a hint of resentment flashed from time to time in his eyes. There were no reinforcements in Hedong for the time being, but the Turks actually came with reinforcements!

The Turks came down from Juyong Pass and did everything along the way. The people of Youzhou and even the Tang soldiers in Youzhou dared to be angry but dared not speak out. Because the emperor had an order to avoid conflicts with the Turkic soldiers, Li Yuan also had to rely on the Turkic soldiers to fight against Xiao Buyi, and of course he did not dare to offend the Turkic soldiers easily. Although Li Shimin was the King of Qin, the two Turkic envoys sat on him.

All the Tang generals dared to be angry but dared not speak, and they all bowed their heads and said nothing.

The two men were named Tellerrehan, and the other was named Asunade, with different faces and the same arrogance and domineering. The two led 5,000 Turkic soldiers and headed south from Juyongguan, saying that they were here to support the Tang army.

In the late autumn, because of the continuous rain, the Turkic soldiers felt it was difficult to march, so they were always near the county. They were waiting for the rain to stop and then turn back to the Turkic. Unexpectedly, it started to snow in a flash.

The rain and snow were mixed together. It was very cold. The Turkic soldiers were used to enjoying it. They envied the prosperity of the Central Plains and did not want to turn back to the bitter and cold grasslands. It was said that the snow on the grasslands was getting heavier and heavier. It was inconvenient to go back. Teller Rehan and others discussed it. Finally, they decided to take a look at the quality of the Xiliang army with the Tang Bing first.

The Turkic soldiers really didn't believe how powerful the Central Plains cavalry could be! Because this was their strength!

Many Turkic soldiers already knew that they were still very visionary. They tried to resolve internal conflicts in the grassland first. Only then would they send troops in the spring to avoid repeating the mistakes of Shibi Khan. Since this is the case, Trerehan thought that he would be a vanguard first. If he could defeat the Western Liang army, he would be able to steal more gold and jewelry in the future. He could also show off his strength after he returned.

The Turkic soldiers looked down on the Li Tang army at all. Because an emperor in the Central Plains could make him sit on it, how capable can he be? Because he looked down on the Li Tang army, they also despised the Western Liang army. In their opinion, it was not that the Western Liang army was too strong, but that the Li Tang army was too weak.

This emotion spread among the Turkic soldiers, and quickly turned into a kind of arrogance. It also made Teller Rehan disdain Li Shimin's defensive counterattack tactics.

Holding a horse whip and knocking on the table, Teller Rehan fucked the Central Plains in an unskilled manner and said, "King Li Qin, this won't work." He couldn't understand the title of the Central Plains position and shouted casually.

The generals were furious. When they heard that he despised Li Shimin, they all wanted to scold him. Li Shimin stopped his generals and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean?"

"Occurrence! Offense is the best defense!" Asanad said excitedly.

Li Shimin frowned secretly, thinking that I could not know this truth, but now the Western Liang army is like an iron barrel, how can we attack? Although the Turkic soldiers have extremely strong combat capabilities in individual soldiers, if they are said to be in team combat, they may not be stronger than the Xuanjia Tianshang. My father valued them because there were more people than the team combat, not how strong they were in team combat, otherwise they would not have been able to build Yanmen for more than a month.

While considering how to persuade more tactfully, Tellerrehan said proudly: "I see, we need to show you what the real warrior is."

"I don't know what a real warrior is?" Li Shimin asked with a smile.

"Tomorrow... I will challenge the iron-armored cavalry you fear!" Tellerhan said arrogantly: "I want to fight them, and they are in a mess.

I want you to see, the mysterious armored heavenly soldiers and the iron armored cavalry will go to hell!"

What he said before was acceptable to the generals of the Tang army, but the words added later really made everyone angry. Li Shimin was cruel and smiled and said, "Okay, then I will give the letter of war to the Xiliang army today. It's our business to give the letter of war, and whether to fight is their business."

Teller suddenly felt cold and shouted: "Okay, in the battle tomorrow, I will let you see what a real cavalry is!"

Zhan Shu was quickly sent to the Xiliang Army's barracks with arrogance. Before Xiao Buyi's butt was still hot, he received Li Shimin's challenge.

Xiao Buyi looked at it for a while and frowned and asked, "What does Li Shimin mean?"

Qin Shubao's writing is simple, it is nothing more than hearing that the iron armored cavalry is so powerful that it always feels exaggerated. At noon tomorrow, Teller's cavalry will be sent out to fight against the iron armored cavalry, and the victory or defeat will be decided!

After reading it, Qin Shubao laughed and said in a silence: "When did Li Shimin become so naive?" Because this challenge book is more like a grass-roots duel rather than a marching battle.

Xiao Buyi pondered: "Li Shimin is not naive. Is it the Turkic cavalry that are naive?" After all, the two of them didn't know the inside story of the Tang army, and for a moment they were a little confused about the opponent's intentions. Qin Shubao said: "He asked us to send troops, so we will send troops. Wouldn't it be too shameless?"

Xiao Buyi smiled and said, "Yes, even if they knelt down and beg us to send troops, we must consider it. However, I heard that the Turkic soldiers were arrogant and now they have the troops to help Li Tang. If this is true, give them a blow and kill them."

"The Xiliang land means to fight tomorrow?" Qin Shubao tentatively said.

Xiao Buyi thought for a while, "If the Turkic cavalry really attacked the vanguard, we must beware of Li Shimin's attack. I will fight against the Turkic soldiers. As for the important task of fighting Li Shimin, I will give it to General Qin."

Qin Shubao said cautiously: "I should do my best. I will reply to the letter to indicate that the battle will take place on Sunday?"

Xiao Buyi thought for a while, "I will postpone the fight for three days, and see their reaction first." Qin Shubao immediately wrote down a letter and handed it to the envoy, asking him to take it back.

When the letter reached Li Shimin's hands, his first thought was, what trick did Xiao Buyi want to use?

In a fierce battle, although we have to fight hard, we have to be real and real. We must never let our intentions go. Li Shimin and Xiao Buyi fought in Hejian and had fully understood Xiao Buyi.\ But no matter how you understand, you still have no idea in your heart when facing it.

After hearing Li Shimin conveyed his meaning, Teller Rehan spitted heavily and cursed: "Coward, useless coward."

Asunad continued: "It's okay to have three days later, let them live for three more days."

Li Shimin sneered secretly, and after returning to the camp, he came to Fang Xuanling alone and said, "The Turkic soldiers are arrogant and rude. I wonder what countermeasures do you have?"

Fang Xuanling said: "The great enemy of the King of Qin was the Western Liang army, not the Turkic army!"

Li Shimin fell silent, "Sir, is it to make me or tolerate me?"

Fang Xuanling said: "Only by enduring can we accomplish things. If the Marquis of Huaiyin cannot bear the humiliation under his crotch, how can he become famous in the world later? Emperor Gaozu of Han cannot bear the humiliation of Xiang Yu, how can he create a great cause for a generation?"

Li Shimin sighed: "I know this truth too, but I have always been unable to bear it recently."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "I can't bear it, so I have to think about it from another perspective. In fact, the King of Qin should be happy."

"How can I explain this sir?" Li Shimin said in surprise.

Fang Xuanling said: "The King of Qin is mostly overwhelmed by them. Now in your eyes, the Turks and the Western Liang army are both your enemies. Since that's the case, they fight together. You should not think that you will be unhappy if you win. Instead, you should think that we should be happy if we lose!"

Li Shimin smiled, "Mr. Fang is right. If Xiao Buyi is defeated, we will take advantage of the victory to pursue him. If Teller Rehan is defeated, it will be the only way to kill them!"

Fang Xuanling said: "Then should the King of Qin know how to do it?"

Li Shimin said in a deep voice: "Three days later, I will lay an ambush and wait for an opportunity to move."

Three days passed in a flash, and Teller Rehan relied on his cavalry to win every battle, and did not make any preparations. You should know that they burned, killed and plundered in the Central Plains, relying on the strength of horses and bows, and they encountered the people and officers and soldiers in the undominated areas, and they had developed arrogance. Li Shimin was angry with them, and did not tell them the sharpness of the iron-armed cavalry, let alone Teller Rehan would not believe it even if he said it.

In the early morning of winter, the sun always hides behind thick clouds. After a few days of heavy snow, it stopped.

Trerehan and Ashinade finally got up early, and took the yawning Turkic soldiers out of the camp and went to the shore of Yishui.

The Tang army beat drums three times, and the infantry formed a square formation to arrest them. The cavalry scattered on both wings and looked for an opportunity to move.

Teller took the lead. When the cold wind blew, the Turkic soldiers were already energetic and showed their usual toughness. Although the five thousand Turkic cavalry lined up, they were not as well-equipped as the iron-armored cavalry and the Xuan-armored Heavenly Soldiers and were disciplined, their attack power seemed to be colder than ice and snow.

I looked up at the other side and saw a team of cavalry coming from the distant plains on the other side. There were about 3,000 people who stopped moving on the other side of Yishui.

Teller's heart was relieved and thought that his opponent only had cavalry, which was also a hero. He was not too stupid, and thought that if the opponent came, he would not attack him if he was a big army.

The Xiliang Army went down to the village, but left a place to fight in front of the village. The camp was a long way from the village. It seemed that Xiao Buyi was really preparing to fight against the Turkic soldiers and defeat his opponent with the cavalry.

Tellerhan said arrogantly: "Asnade, are you going to go or me?" His attitude was full of disdain, and he seemed to be not facing the subway cavalry that was terrifying the world, but the lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Asanad smiled and said, "You can't do it first, I'll go there again."

Tellerehan was angry, "So, are you much better than me?"

Asinad smiled but said nothing. When Li Shimin saw it, he cursed in his heart. These two guys were arrogant and didn't fight before the battle. The enemy was in front of Teller's rehearsal, and he knew the importance of it. He just wanted to defeat his opponent in one fell swoop, let Asinad see his majesty, and raised his spear and shouted: "Tikui!"

In Turkic, Tikui means charge. Xiao Buyi used these two words to mix fish eyes to incite the emotions of the Turkic soldiers. Telle shouted with a cold voice, and the Turkic soldiers raised their spears and shouted: "Tikui." The Turkic soldiers shouted with a powerful aura, and rode their horses forward, swarming onto the opposite side of Yishui.

Tellerrehan led less than three thousand troops, and Asunad led his troops to attack, but did not attack.

During the Turkic soldiers, they seemed to flock, but they quickly sorted out their formations in a sprint. They were uneven and orderly. When Li Shimin saw them, he frowned secretly, thinking that although the Turkic soldiers were arrogant and rude, the essence of equestrians was not bragging.

The cavalry on the other side saw the opponent rushing, and there was no riot. The cavalry held a giant axe for the general, and it was Cheng Yaojin.

Teller's heat and cold rushes through Yishui, and outside the land of an arrow, he shouts: "Shoot the arrow."

Cheng Yaojin ordered arrows to be fired almost at the same time!

For a moment, the feathered arrows were like locusts, scattered in the air. When Li Shimin saw them, for some reason, he always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.

Both sides raised their shields to protect themselves and their horses with clever angles. After all, Turkic soldiers grew on horseback and were extremely skilled in bows and archers. After this round of bows and arrows, the casualties on both sides were extremely minor.

Teller Rekhan was slightly shocked and thought to himself that the Central Plains people had never been able to fight, but he didn't expect that the iron-armored cavalry really had some tricks. After turning, he hooked the saddle with his feet, and on one side of his body, he pulled the bow and arrow again, and shot the second round of long arrows at a speed faster than ordinary people's archery.

The Turkic soldiers followed suit, and this move was so fancy and dazzling. Teller was busy and did not forget to look back and look at it, and was proud in his heart. He thought about the bullshit Xuan Armored Heavenly Soldiers and Iron Cavalry, how could he make such a difficult move?

The long arrow was tricky, the angle was strange, and the Turkic soldiers had extremely skilled shooting skills. They were dazzled for a moment, and even Li Shimin couldn't help but scream.

This trick is difficult, but the most difficult thing is that everyone can do it, with awesome momentum.

Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin waved his axe and the armored cavalry actually dispersed like a tide. One team turned into two rows, forming a left-right attack, and another round of long arrows was released.

The Turkic soldiers took horses with a long arrow this time, but the cavalry dispatched by the Western Liang Iron Cavalry this time even armed the horses. The long arrows hit the horses, and many of them did not shoot through the leather armor made in front of the horses. Although the ground black armor iron is considered a light cavalry, Xiao Buyi and Li Jing, together with the master craftsmen in the capital, created simple light armor protection to reduce the killing of bows and arrows during charges, and can always play a significant role.

Cheng Yaojin took his weak spots, but instead killed many Turkic soldiers.

The two teams made a mistake and even fought with bows and arrows, which was beyond the expectations of too many people. Cheng Yaojin led the army, but the ground was in the shape of a trumpet, with a split formation, and a distance from the Turkic soldiers.

When the two armies make mistakes, they will cause damage to each other. However, relatively speaking, the fancy Turkic soldiers are more severely injured.

The first round of charge was fruitless and far from reaching the desired result, Teller Rehan frowned secretly. In his mind, there were no decent cavalry in the Central Plains. If he rushed, he would immediately become a fallen flower. But now he has changed his impression. The Western Liang Iron Cavalry is well-trained, and perhaps his skills are not as good as theirs, but the equestrian is not much worse.

Of course this is his idea. What exactly needs to be tested in the duel.

The cavalry intertwined and did not make any substantial contact. Teller Rehan only felt that the people of the Central Plains were still too cunning. Thousands of cavalry rushed over and stirred up endless snow waves.

The rush is about to end, and Trek has stopped his horse and the war horseman stands up. In the vast snow, it is like singing and dancing, effortless. The Turkic soldiers snatch the horse and turn around.

The team, in a blink of an eye, had gathered again to fight back with the fastest speed

If the Western Liang iron cavalry is as flowing as water, then the Turkic iron cavalry is as hard as ice, straightforward, swift and powerful.

The Tang army was moved.

Xiao Buyi saw it from afar and murmured: "The Turkic cavalry really have some tricks. They can be the leader if they talk about equestrianism." Although Xiao Buyi was alert, he had no fear at all, because equestrianism did not equal tactics after all! Turkic soldiers have advantages and disadvantages, which are that they are a little scattered and show off their strengths and ruthlessness.

Qin Shubao said: "I just hope General Cheng can act as promised."

Xiao Buyi said confidently: "Don't worry, Cheng Yaojin will never surpass what he should do. He is a ruler."

The two spoke softly, not much worry. When Tellerrehan was preparing to defeat the Western Liang Iron Cavalry and give the Tang army a good look, Xiao Buyi just ordered Cheng Yaojin to fight against the Turkic soldiers to see the truth and reality. Xiao Buyi certainly understood that defeating these thousands of cavalry was not difficult for him, but there was a rare opportunity to observe. I should study it thoroughly, because it is just an appetizer at the moment, and the highlight of the future showdown with Li will be.
To be continued...
