Asina Helu was a nobleman of Western Turks and inherited the Western Turks Yehu.

Since the Eastern Turks were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, Asina Helu has led his troops to nomadic areas in the north of Yinshan, spying on the tribes of Xueyantuo east of Yinshan.

Last year, Asuna Du Xun led the remnants to Asuna Helu's tribe because of a fall in love with Lu Zhi, and informed Asuna Helu that there was a big battle between the Tang Dynasty and Xue Yantuo.

Asina Helu led 50,000 cavalry to the west of Yudu Junshan (now Hang Aishan) to wait for the result of this battle.

It was not until the end of the April lunar month that the news of Xue Yantuo's defeat was spread to the Ashin Helu tent.

Ashina Helu didn't know that Li Chengqian either killed all the captured Mobei soldiers or sent them to the mine factory. He thought that the defeated soldiers of the tribes would flee back to the divisions in a few days.

Therefore, Ashina Helu took advantage of the emptiness of Mobei to occupy Xue Yantuo's nest first, and the rest should decide how to deal with it based on the number of young and strong people who returned.

After Ashina Helu occupied Xueyantuo's lair, he plotted against the defeated troops who had escaped Xueyantuo every day and demoted them to slaves. The entire Mobei was his.

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

At the beginning of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, the thatch at the foot of Yudujun Mountain had grown to three feet tall.

Under the blue sky, the endless grasslands are filled with dark and shallow colors, forming various patterns.

A bright river in the distance is like a silver ribbon floating on the green grassland, and the gurgling water nourishes the lush grassland.

On both sides of the river, groups of yellow wild donkeys, majestic wild horses, horned deer with branches on their heads, camels with peaks, elves-like antelope, wild goats, yellow sheep and other wild animals either run happily, eat grass leisurely, or drink water by the river.

Since last year, Yi Nan led the young and strong men from all the northern tribes to the south, there has been no large-scale hunting on this grassland. The wild beasts here have been very leisurely and at the turn of spring and summer.

Xue Rengui rode a horse and looked into the vibrant grassland in front of him, and breathed a sigh of relief: "This place is so abundant, no wonder His Royal Highness must send civil servants to record the mountains, rivers and terrain when he came, thinking that the Tang Dynasty would be ready for the future operation."

Xi Junmai Fo, who was next to him, seemed to have not heard Xue Rengui say anything, but just stared at the towering Yudu Junshan dozens of miles away.

After a while, Xi Junmai's eyes shone and said, "Does Brother Xue know which mountain is ahead?"

When Xue Rengui heard this, he looked up at the mountain in front of him and smiled humbly: "Before he came, Xue really didn't know that this mountain was Yanran Mountain in the Han Dynasty. However, His Highness, the Crown Prince, learned from heaven and earth, told Xue that this mountain was where Douche, the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Crown Prince, also specially instructed Xue to sacrifice to the young prison at the foot of this mountain to the Eastern Han Dynasty to kill the Han family."

Xi Junmai sighed after hearing this: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is really kind and kind, and he has never forgotten the heroic spirits of the Eastern Han Dynasty."

Xue Rengui laughed and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is in love with the world. He often says that all Chinese heroes must be respected regardless of ancient or modern times."

Xi Junmai's eyes shone brightly when he heard this and laughed: "My brother Xue and I should be considered heroes today, right?"

After saying that, he suddenly pulled the war horse and ran forward. Xi Junmai ridden on the horse and laughed and seemed very happy.

Xue Rengui also rode a horse and followed, his face calm, but he thought to himself that this time he led the army to come, but His Highness the Crown Prince destroyed Xue Yantuo's army first to accept women and children, and he is still far from being the General of the Eastern Han Dynasty's chariot and cavalry Dou Xian, the Shi Yanran!

Because Li Chengqian gave them a tight time and the area of ​​the northern part of the Mo area was very wide, so once they passed the Desert, they divided into two groups. Xue Rengui and Xi Junmai led 10,000 Tang troops to the old nest of Xueyantuo tribe, and then they captured the old nest of Xueyantuo tribe and then gathered the small tribes around Xueyantuo tribes.

Qibing Heli was more familiar with Mobei, so he was responsible for gathering the women and children in the tribes around him.

At that time, Yi Nan did not seek military service from the Qibi tribe. The Qibi tribe was still in the hands of Qibi Sharmony, the younger brother of Qibi Sharmony. Qibi Sharmony could use the power of the Qibi Sharmony, so he did not bring many troops.

As soon as Xue Rengui and his group arrived at the foot of Yudu Jun Mountain, they were discovered by Ashinahelu's spies.

At this time, Ashinahelu had already rewarded Xue Yantuo's women and children to his generals as slaves, and he himself took his personal guards to hunt around him every day.

When he heard that there were 10,000 Tang troops, he was stunned and thought to himself: Even if Xue Yantuo's entire army was wiped out, no one of them would come back, and the Tang troops would not come here!

As the saying goes, one thousand hurts the enemy and one hundred hurts oneself. Shouldn’t the Tang army lick their wounds in the sound of celebration?

He didn't know that this time the Tang army's casualties were greatly reduced because of the use of gunpowder.

Ashina Helu didn't want to understand what the Tang army came to Mobei. Now the only elderly, weak, women and children are left in the various divisions of Mobei, which is meaningless to the Tang army.

The grassland tribes will rob the other party of their respective people in every battle and become slaves after the war, but this is meaningless to China. Those who rob men are stupid and those who rob women are ugly. They keep them as slaves and are too rude. The family has to be in charge of a living king of hell for many years to shock them.

Of course, if there are grassland people surrendering on the battlefield, they will also be captured. The purpose is generally to offer prisoners when the troops are moving.

"Mr. Ye Hu, there are only 10,000 soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty at this time. If we win, we will definitely get a lot of excellent armor." Asina Helu was thinking about Asina Du Xun next to him, but he smiled and offered advice to him.

Upon hearing this, Ashina Helu turned his head to look at Ashina Du Xun, and said with a cold expression: "What do you know? Since the Tang Dynasty sent troops, there may not be only ten thousand cavalry."

Asana Du Xun looked ugly when he heard this, but he still said unconvincedly: "The soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty would not come here to hunt. Now that we have occupied Xue Yantuo's nest and divided Xue Yantuo's women and children. Can we still give it up?"

Asina Helu knew Li Shimin's power well, so he was unwilling to confront the Tang Dynasty head-on, but as Asina Du Xun said, it was impossible for him to spit out the meat he had eaten in his mouth now.

"It is said that I will order the army to gather together to fight against the Tang army." Asina Helu was also a man who was sitting up and walking hard.

In history, he suffered a quarrel with the Khan of the Western Turks in the 20th year of Zhenguan, and surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. He immediately rebelled after Li Shimin's death, which shows that he was definitely unwilling to live under the jurisdiction of others.

At this moment, he made up his mind to immediately lead troops to fight Xue Rengui, hoping to eliminate the ten thousand Tang troops first, even if there are anyone behind him, they can escape with the spoils.

Xue Rengui and Xi Junmai took the army to the foot of Yudu Army Mountain and followed the guidance of the guide, passing through the pine forest a mile ahead, which was the valley where the Xueyantuo tribe was located.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Xue Rengui was hesitating whether to enter the pine forest, but suddenly he heard a rumbling sound of horse hooves coming from the pine forest.

Xue Rengui and Xi Junmai were also considered veterans in the army. He immediately knew that a large army was coming from the opposite side when he heard the sound.

Xi Junmai frowned and said, "Where did this army come from?"

Xue Rengui stared at the Songlin in front of him and said with a serious expression: "The one who dares to compete with the Tang Dynasty here should be the Western Turkic Yehu Ashina Helu."

As the horse's hooves became louder and louder, they rumbled like war drums.

Xue Rengui guessed that there were at least 30,000 cavalrymen on the other side. He looked up at the towering Yanran Mountain, shook the reins and rushed towards the pine forest opposite with a spear.
