Seeing that Lu Zhi was dead, Su Dingfang turned around and said to Wang Fangyi: "Zhongxiang sent someone to order Li Simo, and Xue Yantuo surrendered to rebel again and ordered him to quickly quell the rebellion.

Then prepare a catapult and gunpowder to assist Li Simo's tribe in quelling the rebellion."

When Wang Fangyi heard this, his eyes flashed with a flash of strange colors and immediately understood the significance of Su Dingfang's move. Although Xue Yantuo's surrendered soldiers had already rushed to Li Simo's military camp, they did not guarantee that Li Simo would not guide them to attack the Tang Dynasty camp again.

The direct order was to tell Li Simo that the Tang army was ready, or Li Chengqian was watching him and forced him to fight the Xue Yantuo surrendered soldiers.

As for where to throw the catapult cart and gunpowder, it depends on the actual situation.

Seeing that Wang Fangyi was going to make arrangements, Su Dingfang led his troops to slowly withdraw from the place and set up a formation between the Turkic camp and the Tang camp to prevent them from attacking the Tang camp.

Wang Fangyi arranged everything and returned to Su Dingfang and asked, "General, what if we don't stop them?"

Su Dingfang laughed and said, "If they escape, they will all be frozen to death."

"Oh!" Wang Fangyi didn't understand where Su Dingfang's confidence came from.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince has long controlled their food and grass!" Su Dingfang explained again when he saw that Wang Fangyi didn't understand.

Wang Fangyi then remembered that the person who supplied Li Simo's food and grass nearby was the Jiushou surnamed Zhaowu. Because Li Simo saw Kang Quda being killed by Cheng Wuting, the Jiushou surnamed Zhaowu was free from his destiny towards Li Simo.

Just after the battle, Li Chengqian ordered the nine surnames of Zhaowu to transport the grain and grass to the Lingzhou Governor's Office. These days, the grain and grass from the Li Simo tribe were supplied by the Tang army.

Although I don’t know how much food and grass there are in the Turkic camp, Wang Fangyi thought it would never last more than five days of food and grass to escape in the ice and snow. There would be only a dead end.

Wang Fangyi heard Li Chengqian's order on the hill where Li Chengqian was stationed in Hua that day. At that time, he thought that Li Chengqian was just going to starve Xue Yantuo's surrender to death, but he also controlled Li Simo's tribe.

Just as Su Dingfang and Wang Fangyi set up a formation in front of the Tang army camp, Xue Yantuo surrendered soldiers rushed outside the Li Simo camp. Li Simo and the Turkic soldiers in the camp had long been awakened by the battle not far from his camp.

They also guessed that it was initiated by Lu Zhi, thinking that as long as Lu Zhi was about to take these people to attack Li Chengqian, they kept holding their troops.

But when the spies came to report that Lu Zhi was killed and Xueyantuo surrendered soldiers attacked their camp, Li Simo was at a loss.

"Khan, Xueyantuo's surrendered soldiers have no food for weapons. As long as we are careful to protect the camp, we can consume them to death." A young Turkic Quluchu suggested in the tent.

Li Simo was about to agree when he heard this, but he heard from the outsider: "A person from General Su's office sent an order."

Everyone in the tent was shocked when they heard this. Although they didn't know that Li Chengqian had already seen their conspiracy, they were originally the ones who guarded the tens of thousands of Xueyantuo surrendered soldiers. Now the rebellion of Xueyantuo surrendered soldiers is naturally their responsibility.

When I heard that Tang Lai people were a little guilty.

"Translation!" Li Simo gritted his teeth and said. In his heart, he hoped that Lu Zhi would succeed, but at this time Lu Zhi was dead. He remembered Li Chengqian's terribleness and did not want any more to fall into Li Chengqian's hands.

Suddenly, a small school walked in with his head raised, stood in the middle of the big tent and bowed to Li Simo, and shouted: "The soldiers surrendered to Xueyantuo rebelled. His Royal Highness already knew that he ordered General Su to order General Li to send troops to quell the rebellion quickly."

The attitude of this small school made the Turkic generals in the big tent full of anger, but now they are in trouble.

"I understand, let's go back!" Li Simo said, holding back his anger.

The little school did not retreat after hearing this, but looked at Li Simo and said, "General Su asked me to ask, will General Li report his victory to His Highness the Crown Prince's tent tomorrow?"

Suppress the rebellion overnight?

Not to mention tens of thousands of people, even tens of thousands of pigs can’t be killed overnight.

Li Simo was furious and said in a deep voice: "Go back and report to General Su, you will do your best to quell the rebellion."

After hearing this, the school clasped her fists at Li Simo again and went out swaying. Li Simo's anger in her heart as she watched the school walk out of the tent disappeared. She just thought about Su Dingfang's request, worried that Lu Zhi's conspiracy had been discovered by Li Chengqian.

Although the others in the tent were angry at the arrogance of the school, they did not dare to interrupt Li Simo when they saw him being in a daze.

"Kill! Kill all the Turks..."

"Snatch food..."

Under the guidance of someone who is interested, the soldiers surrendered to Xueyantuo had already arrived outside Li Simo Camp. The generals in the tent were shocked when they heard the shouts from outside.

"This Lu Zhi is really worth dying..." Li Simo cursed angrily, stood up suddenly, and shouted: "People come with me to kill the thief!"

"Khan, these Xueyantuo people cannot rush into the camp without weapons. They will retreat if they don't have food to siege. Now they go out to fight with them but only increase casualties..."

Li Simo waved his hand and smiled bitterly when he heard this, "I can't hold on."

Everyone in the tent looked at Li Simo inexplicably, wondering why he couldn't hold on. Li Simo looked at everyone without saying anything, sighed and walked outside.

----------------

Wang Fangyi looked at the more than ten catapult cars standing on the snow, and felt extremely proud. Although he knew that these gunpowders were limited to killing people, his victory was due to their powerful momentum. These uncivilized and uncivilized barbarians had to be scared to death first when they saw them, so how could they dare to fight?

Wang Fangyi was just thinking about it when he saw his personal guard walking up to him with an eunuch. Wang Fangyi knew that it was Li Chengqian who had the order, but because he came to pass the order, he did not speak out first, but just stood there expressionlessly.

"I've seen General Wang." Waiting to walk forward and lowered his head slightly.

"Well, what order does Your Highness the Crown Prince have?" Wang Fangyi said with a expressionless face.

The eunuch seemed not to feel Wang Fangyi's distantness, and looked at Wang Fangyi and said calmly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince said that if Li Simo came out of the camp to fight Xue Yantuo's surrendered soldiers, General Wang could use a catapult to blow open his village wall."

"What?"

Wang Fangyi, who was calm just now, was shocked and frightened when he heard this.

No matter what, Li Simo is now the General of the Right Martial Guard personally conferred by Li Shimin. The Turkic soldiers led by him also made military achievements in the battle with Xue Yantuo. How could he directly bombard it with gunpowder?

His Royal Highness is too bold to act?

The eunuch saw that Wang Fangyi didn't say anything. Wang Fangyi slowed down and then calmed down, waved to the eunuch and asked him to go back, and then sent someone to investigate the battle situation of Li Simo's tribe.

On the other side of the river, there is an ice city more than two feet high in a valley. The ice city is more than ten acres of land and an ice wall of more than one meter thick. There is only a five-foot-wide exit facing the river.

At this time, the entrance of Bingcheng was strictly guarded, and the entrance was strictly guarded.

Behind the guard, there was a tent next to the gate of the Ice City. Huge candles were burning in the tent, and Li Chengqian was sitting in the tent to process the official documents.

Yuchi Gong and Cheng Wuting sat on the side to protect Li Chengqian's safety, waiting for Liu Kui to stand in front of Li Chengqian, ready to listen to Hou Li Chengqian's orders at any time.

After a while, the eunuch who had sent a message to Wang Fangyi walked into the tent and saw Liu Kui looking at him and handing him to Liu Kui a look of nothing.

Li Chengqian heard the footsteps, put down the pen in his hand and asked, "How is Wang Fangyi doing there?"

Upon hearing this, the eunuch knelt down and said, "Go back to the crown prince, I went to pass on the orders of His Highness the crown prince. Before leaving General Wang's army, someone came to report that Li Simo had already led his troops out of the camp."

"good!"

After saying that, Li Chengqian lowered his head and continued to look at the documents on the table.

"Your Highness, what if Li Simo encourages Xue Yantuo's surrendered soldiers to attack our camp?" Cheng Wuting couldn't help asking.

Li Chengqian smiled and said, "I just saw the news delivered by Wang Qun before I calculated that in order to support Lu Zhi's instigation of Xue Yantuo's surrendered soldiers, Li Simo only left his army for two days of military rations.

He had no confidence in capturing our camp, and the place around which could be supplemented with military rations would take seven days to walk around the place closest to this place. Can his army march without eating for five days in the ice and snow?”
