I only feel that the Tang army can make a surprise attack from the north, and I am afraid that they have already formed a comprehensive siege on Dingxiang.
Dingxiang is not too big, and he is not too small.If the Tang army wanted to include a large camp with 35 Turkic people, I am afraid it would be impossible without 50 million people.
What's more, it is based on Ashinasheer's intelligence, in order to deal with the Turks.The Tang army can gather more than 50% of the country's government soldiers, no less than [-] horses.
At this moment, he couldn't resist at all.
When Li Jing's subordinates were still two or three miles away from the Yazhang, Jie Li gritted his teeth and roared, "Let's retreat!"
If Jieli Khan does not retreat, the victory must belong to the Turks.
After all, Li Jing only had three thousand cavalry under his command.Even if they stand still and let them kill, they will all die of exhaustion.
However, Jieli Khan ran away at the most critical moment.
At this time, the sky is getting brighter.
As Jieli Khan's wolf tail moved back, all Turkic people have seen it.
At this time, Li Jing shouted even louder: "Xieli has escaped, and the Turks have lost!"
This time the Turks were even more flustered.
Seeing the retreating figure of Jieli Khan, Li Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.
These Turkic troops who are fleeing desperately are no longer willing to think about it. They have abandoned all pride and self-confidence, and only care about fleeing. The crowd, forgetting that they still have bows, arrows and sabers in their hands to resist, they only care about running, running, running, the farther the better.
Ashinasheer sent several troops to try to stop the Tang army, but in an instant these troops were smashed by Li Jing's cavalry.
There were thousands of bloody and bloody heads on the horse necks of the cavalrymen of the Tang Army.
Such a desperate situation made veteran generals like Ashinasheer despair, and gave way to resourceful people like Lugen who dared not think about fighting back, so they could only urge the troops to retreat quickly.
However, Dingxiang is a basin, surrounded by three mountains, like a dustpan.
Escaping is not so easy.
Perhaps in Xieli's view, although the Turks suffered heavy losses in this battle, the main force is still there. As long as they can hold their ground and find the Tang army's weakness, they have a chance to come back.
However, Xieli didn't know that the opportunities left to them and the Turks by God were running out.
The sky was bright, and the Turkic army was still panicking and fled to the north. The flags, food and grass were thrown all over the ground, and the wounded soldiers were abandoned on the side of the road. Watching the master disappear into the cloud of smoke and dust with blank eyes, let out a pathetic hiss.
The scene of such a defeat made everyone who survived this bloody battle suffer from the shame of life and death for the rest of their lives, unable to lift their heads.
Since the Tumen uprising in Ashina, the Turkic people have trod across the white mountains and black waters, annihilating the Rouran people, the Wei army, the Northern Zhou army, and the Sui army countless times at a negligible cost of thousands, tens of thousands, tens of thousands, or even 10,000+. Tang Jun, a small tribe with a population of less than one million, suppressed the four behemoths of the Western Wei, Northern Qi, Northern Zhou and Sui. Never had they tried such a disastrous defeat!
This kind of shock that all self-confidence was shattered in one day, this kind of fright that the myth was shattered, was in itself more serious than the loss of a hundred thousand elite soldiers, leaving their minds blank and at a loss!
The cavalry of the Tang army followed closely behind them, and those cavalry of the Tang army were also exhausted, and there were not many of them. The Turkic army could defeat them with just a single Khan, but there was no one who turned around to face them The enemy only wanted to escape, and the farther the better, let the chasing cavalry leech bite behind them, capture the abandoned wounded soldiers, and collect the abandoned horses.These wounded soldiers will be sent to Chang'an, the capital of the Tang Empire. Those who are lucky will be eunuchs and then enter the palace as eunuchs. Those who are unlucky will not even have the chance to be eunuchs. Build a Beijing view.
Having fought against the Tang Dynasty for so many years, the Turkic soldiers are of course well aware of the consequences of being captured, but no one has the leisure to care about those wounded soldiers. It is important to escape!

Chapter 66 The Last Battle
Chapter 66 The Last Battle
On the Baidao Plateau in the north of Tiemen Mountain, in the distance in a valley, the sound of people shouting and horse neighing can be heard.
Jieli Khan rushed out of the teeth tent in panic with a machete in his hand.
Jie Li asked in panic, "What happened?"
A personal guard hurried over and said, "Report to Khan, it is Ashinasheer who is here.
Jieli resentfully dropped the machete and walked into the dental tent.
Ashinasheer walked into the tooth tent and greeted Xieli.
Ashina Sheer said: "Khan, only four thousand sons were found."
Jieli said disappointedly: "Only 4000 people? 35 horses, only 4000 people left?"
Ashinasher nodded.
Jieli sat down slumped and said, "Ashnasheer, what should we do? Go north?"
Ashina She'er said: "Khan, we should send envoys to Chang'an to surrender to Li Jiancheng."
Jieli suddenly jumped up and said, "Send envoys to Chang'an? To beg Li Jiancheng? Ashinasheer, is your brain confused by ice and snow?"
Ashinasheer smiled wryly: "Great Khan, there is a saying among the Han people, that is to use one's own way and return it to others..."
Xieli rolled his eyes suspiciously and said, "You mean, we pretend to ask for surrender?"
Ashinasheer nodded and said: "Now the snow is too heavy, even if the sons and daughters know that the Great Khan is here, they will not be able to get through for a while. Let's send envoys to the south, pretending to surrender. Wait until the troops of the various tribes gather again. , Whether to fight or withdraw, it all depends on the Great Khan's decision."
A knowing smile appeared on Jieli's face and said: "Good idea, Ashinasheer, I will do it according to your method."
Bu Lugen came out and said, "Great Khan, let's go to Chang'an, old minister!"
Jieli nodded and said, "Okay, ride my Zhuifeng. It takes at least ten days or half a month for ordinary war horses to reach Chang'an, but Zhuifeng takes five days at most!"
Bulugen nodded.
Under Jieli Khan's expectant gaze, Bu Lugen jumped up to chase the wind, and with only a hundred or so riders, one person and three horses galloped towards Chang'an.

Li Yuan stood at the entrance of the main hall, with several concubines standing beside him.
The servants and maids were busy, moving out various items from the hall.
Concubine Yin De said with a reluctance on her face: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty didn't say you want us to move away, why do we..."
Li Yuan lowered his face and shouted coldly: "Confused, how can there be any reason for the emperor to live outside the Tai Chi Palace?"
Concubine Yin De lowered her head aggrievedly.
Li Yuan's face softened, and he sighed, "I know, you are used to living here, but you also have to think about it, the crown prince will be an adult in two years, where do they live?"
A servant hurried over and said: "The Supreme Emperor, Your Majesty has come down."
Li Jiancheng strode over from afar.
Li Yuan walked down the steps.
