Chapter 283 Two thousand to twenty thousand

Li Chengqian returned to his camp and recruited Su Dingfang Qiu Xinggong Cheng Wuting and others to tell them the letter sent by Liu Rengui.

With the bright fire of the huge butter candle, Li Chengqian looked at the generals sitting on both sides indifferently. When they heard that the rescuers had arrived, they were all happy and thought to themselves that they had been under too much pressure these two days.

Li Chengqian calmed down and then continued: "Liu Rengui led all the Turkic soldiers who were separated by me. It is not easy to break through Xue Yantuo's blockade."

Su Dingfang nodded in agreement and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince said so much."

The other generals frowned again after hearing this.

"Why didn't Wang Fangyi bring the elites of the Tang Dynasty to rescue His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Cheng Wu asked in confusion.

The others also looked at Li Chengqian, wanting to know what he thinks about this matter, after all, Wang Fangyi is his confidant.

Li Chengqian thought for a while and said, "Maybe it was because he was afraid that Xue Yantuo's army would know that I was here." Li Chengqian chose to believe Wang Fangyi and Liu Rengui.

When the generals were stunned when they heard this, they immediately understood and thought: Wang Fangyi was very meticulous.

This time, Li Chengqian did not give the generals any time to discuss, and directly said to the generals: "We cannot pin our hope of breaking through on Liu Rengui. We must move here to teach us a lesson in the frontal middle army. Let Lord Xue Yantuo only dare to treat this place as bait, not the direction of the main attack."

When Su Ding Fang Qiu Xinggong heard this, he nodded and said, "Please give an order to the Crown Prince!"

Seeing this, the other generals asked Li Chengqian for his orders. Seeing this, Li Chengqian smiled and then slowly expressed his thoughts.

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

Early the next morning, there were dark clouds in the sky, and only the east had just revealed a little white fish belly, and the sound of "Wuwu" horns sounded in the military camp of the Tang Dynasty.

Su Dingfang personally led five thousand cavalry out of the camp and ran towards the north.

Spy Xue Yantuo, who was monitoring this place in the distance, hurriedly transmitted the news back.

On a cold morning, people in Xueyantuo's military camp shouted and neighed in a mess. All the people had already stood up to prepare for today's battle, but they did not receive any orders passed down.

Several middle-aged generals with disheveled hair and leather armor were standing outside the central army tent with their heads and whispering something while waiting for the summons from Wuhetutunfa.

When the Uighurs rebelled against the Turks, they also established official positions in their tribes according to the Turkish rules. Later, they joined Xue Yantuo and only demoted the official positions in the tribes one after another.

Wuhe is Tu Midu's nephew. His official position in Uighur is Tutunfa.

Maybe the sound insulation of the tent is not good, maybe the people inside are too crazy, and the sound of Wuhe fighting on the bed in the tent clearly reached the ears of several generals.

Originally, Wu He was in his twenties, who was very fond of Tu Midu, and he was very lustful. Everyone didn't find it strange.

Just thinking that the woman in the tent and Wu He was the mother of the old lady Run, who was in the tent at this time, made people feel very exciting.

Suddenly, a fast horse ran straight to the tent before stopping. When several generals heard the sound, they turned their heads and saw that a spy turned over and ran to the door of Wuhe's tent and knelt down and shouted, "Wuhe Tutun has a strange movement." After that, they leaned down in front of the tent waiting for Wuhe to summon him.

The generals standing in front of the tent were shocked when they heard this. In the past few days, they fought with Li Chengqian's 8,000 cavalry several times but did not take advantage. So when they heard that the Tang army had abnormal movements, they felt their scalp numb. They didn't know how many soldiers and generals would be lost today, so they couldn't help but stare at Wu He's big tent and wait for Wu He to make a decision.

No order was heard from the big tent, only the sound of fighting on the bed was louder than before. The generals couldn't help but breathe heavily, and they secretly cursed Wu He in their hearts.

After a while, the curtain of the big tent was suddenly lifted up. The generals looked up and saw Wu He walking out from inside. The young Wu He had a springy look on his face, and sweat was rolling down from his smooth chest and abdomen.

Seeing everyone outside the tent laughing, "Is there anything important?"

That means that if there is nothing important, he will go back and enjoy it, and the generals are speechless when they see this.

"Returning to Wuhetutun, the Datang military camp dispatched 5,000 cavalry to the north early this morning."

Wu He looked up and thought for a moment after hearing this, and said, "It seems that they want to meet with the group of Turkic dog thieves in the north."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at the generals standing in front of the camp and shouted: "Baye Gufeng led all the cavalry of our army to assist the Eastern Army. We must not let the Tang army and the Turkic dog thieves join the same place."

Baye Gu Fengwen said bitterly, "Abide by the order!" Then he turned around and went to fight.

Wu He watched Baye Gufeng take the order and left, raised his arms and said with great slutty: "Since most of the Tang army has left the camp, let's set out today and completely eliminate the Tang Dynasty."

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

A red sun shone on the Tang Dynasty military camp. When Su Dingfang and Li Chengqian were sent away, he began to walk around the military camp. Now there are only more than 2,000 people in the military camp, and hundreds of people are wounded without combat ability. Faced with the tens of thousands of Uighur army, the entire camp was in a state of panic. However, as Li Chengqian slowly walked around the camp, the hearts of the entire camp quickly settled down. These simple Tang warriors all simply believed that if they could die in battle with the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, it would be their supreme glory.

Finally, Li Chengqian came to the Shanjiao Camp gate, which was defended by Cheng Wuting. This was the main battlefield today, so Li Chengqian ordered them to dig trenches and build mud walls here. Li Chengqian was preparing to fight Xue Yantuo in a positional battle here.

Cheng Wuting saw Li Chengqian wearing a gray cloth robe walking slowly with a crutch, and hurried forward to salute.

Li Chengqian looked at Cheng Wuting and smiled slightly, "You are ready for your help?"

Cheng Wuting said seriously when he heard this, "Go back to the prince, everything is ready."

Li Chengqian walked forward while looking left and right, and did not forget to wave to the soldiers who saluted him. The atmosphere at the scene became relaxed and warm and refreshed by Li Chengqian.

A spy was walking quickly, kneeling down in front of Li Chengqian and said, "Report to the Prince, all the cavalry in Xueyantuo's military camp went out and headed straight for the north."

Li Chengqian calmly waved his hand to signal him to retreat.

"Haha, Your Highness the Crown Prince is indeed a clever plan. He mobilized these Xueyantuo cavalry as soon as he sent troops." Cheng Wuting, who was following Li Chengqian, laughed loudly.

Li Chengqian was very happy to hear the flattery of this powerful general of the Tang Dynasty in the future, but he just smiled reservedly and continued to walk forward.

The sun rose to the treetops and emitted golden light, causing the warmth on the earth to gradually increase. However, under the sun, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty did not feel any warmth, and only felt pressure like a mountain.

Cheng Wuting, Qiu Shengong, and Li Simo all stood in front of the formation with a serious look on their faces. Behind them were two thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty waiting for the battle.

In front of them, 20,000 Xueyantuo soldiers were flocking to them. Li Chengqian made today's plan based on the situation in the past two days, but none of them expected that Xueyantuo would come today.

Thousands of troops came to attack the camp here two days ago. If the war was a little bit successful, they would retreat. Anyone with discerning eyes could see that this was using them as bait.

But today the entire army was dispatched to annihilate their entire army, which made the generals of the Tang Dynasty, who had only two thousand soldiers in the camp, feel pressured.

Especially in recent days, the Tang Dynasty's continuous use of gunpowder has given Xue Yantuo's soldiers a certain ability to resist gunpowder. Two thousand against tens of thousands is really not an advantage.

Li Chengqian and a group of wounded soldiers sat on the hillside and saw Xue Yantuo's army attacking the side like a tide. He felt very heavy. This was the first time he had formulated specific tactics. If he failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Now, Li Chengqian can only hope that the combat plan he set yesterday will work, so Li Chengqian slowly stood up and ordered with a expressionless face: "The orphan king will order everything to follow the plan."
