Chapter 286 Wuhe surrenders

Although the explosion was over, the black smoke and dust caused by the explosion still enveloped most of the battlefield.

From where Li Chengqian is, the situation of Wuhe and Xueyantuo army opposite cannot be seen, and the situation on Li Chengqian's side cannot be seen in Wuhe's original place. Of course, Wuhe has now led the remaining thousands of Xueyantuo soldiers to escape.

Too scary!

All Xue Yantuo soldiers thought this way. According to their previous experience, they could see the catapult cart before the explosives were thrown. However, this time the gunpowder exploded from the underground. They did not dare to go to the explosion place to check the situation, thinking that what kind of divine thunder was really using the Tang army.

Wu He was shocked and his ears were roaring and he was dizzy, not defending his position, riding a war horse and headless flies, running wildly on the grassland. The thousands of Xueyantuo soldiers behind him were worse than him, and they just watched his flag running wildly.

When he fled to a forest, Wu He was riding his horse and suddenly heard a loud shout like a thunderbolt coming from the front: "Is it the general who is here to Uighur Wu He?"

When Wu He heard this, he looked up and exclaimed loudly: "Su Dingfang!"

Wu He hurriedly grabbed the reins and stood the war horse, and saw a team of Tang soldiers turning out from the forest ahead. The man led it was Su Dingfang, a powerful Tang general who fought with the Uighurs many times in the past few days.

"Hahaha, it's me!" Su Dingfang raised his spear in his hand and pointed it at Wuhe's sacred and magnificent.

He saw the gunpowder that Li Chengqian detonated several miles away. He knew that the battle was at its most critical moment and was trying hard to lead people back, but suddenly he found a large group of Xue Yantuo people running towards him, so he was invisible to the forest.

When he saw clearly that Wu He was only carrying a few thousand men and horses and was running in panic, Su Dingfang couldn't help laughing. At this time, he could have concluded that Wu He had not obtained any advantage and was frightened by the shocking explosion just now.

Unlike Su Dingfang's mood, Wu He was so frightened that he saw Su Dingfang and the Tang soldiers behind him with bright armor and bright armor. He was almost about to dismount and beg for surrender, but he thought of Li Chengqian slaughtering Xue Yantuo Khan's tent and did not dare to surrender.

"Tangren, the Tangren is really treacherous. It turns out that you have set up traps and waited for me..." Wu He himself didn't know what he said.

Seeing Wu He's panicked, Su Dingfang knew that he could no longer make any waves. He didn't say much at the moment. He held the rein in his left hand and held a gun in his right hand and grabbed the horse's belly with his legs. The war horse neighed with pain and jumped up and rushed straight to Wu He on the opposite side.

When Su Dingfang moved, the Tang soldiers behind him rushed forward.

Wuhe and other groups of Uighurs had been scared to death. Seeing that the Tang army was rushing towards him, they could only barely resist it, and then turned around and fled. Su Dingtian led 5,000 Tang troops to chase him.

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

Li Chengqian looked at Qiu Xinggong and others coming up and waited on the hillside for a while. The soldiers responsible for detonating gunpowder outside the camp reported that Wu He had led his troops to escape.

Everyone was relieved when they heard this, and then Li Chengqian arranged for the generals to clean up the battlefield.

At this time, the dust at the explosion was not settled and the fireworks were lingering, and it was impossible to enter. Qiu Xinggong arranged for people to treat the wounded in the Tang Dynasty first.

When this was arranged, Cheng Wuting had already rushed back. Not long after he chased him out, he remembered that there was no one to fight around Li Chengqian. He was frightened and turned around and ran back to the camp.

When he entered the camp, he saw that everything had been arranged, so he lowered his head and walked to Li Chengqian with a red face. Li Chengqian didn't even look at him. Seeing this, Liu Kui stepped forward and took him to get whipped first.

Li Chengqian looked up and saw that the sun in the sky was almost south. He smiled and said to the wounded: "I have been basking in the sun for a whole morning and did nothing, but I was hungry first. You must be hungry too, right?"

"With this great victory, I won't be hungry if I don't eat for three days." A wounded man also said happily.

Li Chengqian didn't think he was offended when he heard this, and still smiled and said, "You still have to eat enough to recover from your injuries. Only when you recover from your injuries can you go to battle and kill the enemy."

"Thank you, Your Highness, to be polite!" The clever wounded quickly thanked you.

Li Chengqian waved his hand and said loudly: "Okay, today I will order Cheng Wuting to take people to cook in person."

Cheng Wuting, who had just been whipped, went to the stove camp to cook silently after hearing this.

Li Chengqian arranged the place and waited for dinner. After half an hour, the dust that exploded finally settled and the fireworks gradually went out.

Li Chengqian ordered Qiu Xinggong and Li Simo to take people to deal with it.

Qiu Xinggong and Li Simo are both veterans on the battlefield. Before, Li Chengqian threw explosive packs at the enemy. They have also seen that the enemy's casualties are not serious, but the power of the gunpowder explosion is more scary.

But this time, as the dust gradually landed, I saw that several acres of land were charred. I could smell the stinking smell of human flesh from afar. The injured Xue Yantuo soldiers fell on the ground and groaned in pain.

The two of them walked up with their soldiers and saw that they were like the Shura hell mentioned in Buddhist scriptures.

Li Simo was originally a Turkic person, but he couldn't help but feel trembling when he saw this scene. He turned his head and looked at Qiu Xinggong, but saw Qiu Xinggong still observing the situation on the battlefield as usual.

"General Li, I see that most of the people here are not seriously injured. The reason why I can't afford to lie down at this time is just because I'm scared. I wake up later and say that I might make trouble. Why do you and I bring each of you to make up for them? As a result, their lives will be better reported to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Qiu Xinggong said calmly.

What Qiu Xinggong said is not false in order not to be discovered by the enemy, the gunpowder buried here is not worried about the burial of gunpowder. Although other things are added to the gunpowder, the damage is still not great.

The main reason why these people lost their combat power was that the power of the earth shaking when the gunpowder exploded was scared. In addition, many people were burned by fire when the gunpowder exploded. In addition, there was darkness around them at that time and they didn't know where to escape, which caused these people to completely lose their combat power when their minds were taken away.

Li Simo was stunned when he heard this, but when he thought of Li Chengqian's ruthlessness, these Xue Yantuo's wounded soldiers were only dead.

But Li Simo replied: "It's better to report to the Crown Prince first before handling it." Li Simo did not respect Li Chengqian, he just wanted to confirm that Li Chengqian's reputation of being cruel and easy to kill.

Qiu Xinggong also thought that Li Chengqian would definitely order all these people to be killed, so he sent someone back to report the news without any worries.

After hearing this, Li Chengqian didn't want to kill these people anymore. It was not that he became merciful and ruthless, but that he thought that since these people were scared, they would not dare to resist the Tang Dynasty in the future.

Those who are not seriously injured can do some hard work, and those who are severe can also allow them to promote the power of the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty everywhere.

Yes, those who were already scared had no threat to him or the Tang Dynasty. Even if these people returned to Xueyantuo or the Uighurs, they would no longer have the courage to fight against the Tang Dynasty. Instead, they would drag their comrades down in the battle.

Li Chengqian looked at the captain who was kneeling in front of him and said, "You go back and pass the orphan king's orthodox orders. Since these people are scared, keep them. They are harmless to the Tang Dynasty."

Qiu Xinggong and Li Simo had not spoken after hearing Li Chengqian's oral orders. The soldiers behind them had already agreed, and they looked at each other speechlessly and had to obey.

After the matter was decided, it would be easier. The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty woke up or woke these people directly. All those who could move were concentrated in one place, and then loudly told them not to surrender.

More than 7,000 Xue Yantuo's wounded soldiers heard that they surrendered and refused to kill them. They all knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.

Seeing this, Qiu Xinggong ordered these people to get up and bury the bodies on the battlefield, and carry them to treat them seriously.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty watched these newly surrendered enemy soldiers work honestly and obediently, and even ignored the injuries on their bodies. They admired Li Chengqian from the bottom of their hearts.

However, there is another problem that needs to be solved. They don’t have much food. Originally, Li Chengqian led 8,000 cavalry to travel and didn’t bring much food. Now it has been delayed here for four or five days, and suddenly more than 7,000 people have been added, so of course there is not enough food.

Just as Li Chengqian was thinking about how to get some food from Xueyantuo's camp, Su Dingfang rushed Wuhe and a group of Xueyantuo's surrendered generals back.
