Chapter 1371 slaying the general and capturing the flag(1/2)
The fighting gradually subsided.
The blood and energy are soaring on the battlefield.
Su Dingfang's personal soldiers set up tents and tables on a high slope on the battlefield. Su Dingfang sat there savoring the wine of victory and looking at the battlefield from afar.
A team of riders came on horseback.
When you get closer, you turn over and get off your horse.
A man in front of him, with a helmet and armor on his back, walked to the tent and took off his helmet.
"The last commander of the left wing cavalryman Xue Li pays homage to the marshal."
Su Dingfang smiled and called the junior brother of his fellow disciple over, "Come and sit down."
Xue Rengui waved, and two subordinates came with one of them.
"Fortunately, the general of Mo won the fate and captured the Yi Nan of Xueyantuo Khan alive. The thief left the brigade and didn't even want his Khan flag. He wanted to escape, but fortunately, he was stopped by Moji."
Yi Nan was very embarrassed at this time, tied up with five flowers, and even had blue and purple faces on his face. Seeing Su Dingfang, he was a little dejected.
He didn't expect that he would be defeated, and he would not expect that he would be defeated so miserably. He was obviously twice as many troops as the Tang army, but was defeated in one battle. He couldn't even run away, and he had no chance to withdraw his troops and fight again, or even flee back to Mobei to regroup.
Su Dingfang stepped forward and patted Xue Rengui on the shoulder, "General Xue captured the famous king alive, and he should be the first contribution in this battle."
"The last general dare not be, it's all about Su Shuai's command and commander."
In the eyes of many Tang generals, this battle was quite risky. Especially in the end, Su Dingfang did not play according to common sense and directly attacked the Yinan Central Army. In particular, he sent the last reserved cavalry to attack the Uighurs and Qibi tribes on both wings of Yinan, which made many generals think he was crazy.
The Uighurs and Qiezi have always been the targets of the Tang army, and everyone is looking forward to their rebellion on the battlefield.
But facts, the reactions of Uighurs and Qie are even more surprising.
The Tang army had been looking forward to their rebellion, but they did not. But when Su Dingfang was crazy, he sent cavalry to attack them, but they immediately sent troops to attack the Yi Nanzhong Army.
It's simply a shame.
Many people can't understand what's going on here, and some even speculate that Su Dingfang had already reached a secret agreement with Tu Midu and Gelang.
But Xue Li knew that there was no secret agreement at all.
Su Dingfang just used the technique of attacking the heart, and when the two films were hesitant, they forced them to make a choice immediately. However, the two films finally made the choice to go in reverse because this was the best choice.
It seems like an extremely risky move, but as expected, I have to admire this senior brother, who has become stronger and stronger in military use.
The battle was perfect if you captured the Yi Nan Khan alive.
The difference between the expeditions on the grassland outside the border is that they are often easier to defeat, but they are difficult to annihilate. In the grassland operations, the Hu people are mostly cavalry, and there is no city to defend, and the two sides fight in the wilderness.
When the wind was wrong, he fled immediately after he was defeated.
It won't take long to get back together and make a comeback.
This time, Su Dingfang not only forced the two Tiel tribes, the Uighurs and Qibi, to betray Xue Yantuo, but also captured the Yi Nan Khan alive. In this way, it would be difficult for Xue Yantuo to regroup.
The leader of the Yi Nan, the grassland tribes, the Khitan, Xi, Wu, Shi Wei, and Moe tribes, will also be transformed into a pile of loose sand.
Two knights kicked Yi Nan with one kick and bent his legs.
Yi Nan couldn't stand and knelt in front of Su Lie.
Su Dingfang walked to the table, poured two glasses of wine, and handed it to Xue Dingfang first.
"Junior Brother Xue, come on, Senior Brother, I wish you a cup."
Xue Li took it with a smile and drank it all.
"I'm really thirsty, this wine is so delicious."
"This is the wine given to me by the teacher, and I have never been reluctant to drink it."
He poured another cup and brought it to Yi Nan.
The wind is bleak, the weather is cool and the autumn is so cold.
The wine glass was handed to his mouth, and Yi Nan lowered his head and drank it.
"Khan is also a khan. He fought against the Eastern Turks and defected to the Western Turks. Later, he fought against the Western Turks and proclaimed himself the Khan of the Tiel Khanate. Later, he joined the Eastern Turks and later rebelled against the Eastern Turks and proclaimed himself the Xueyantu Khan, and was called the Khan. At the beginning of Zhenguan, he joined our Tang Dynasty and was crowned as Zhenzhu Khan by our Tang Dynasty."
"Originally, if Khan could guard Mobei for me, and always be the Pingfan, the Tang Dynasty would not treat you badly. Unfortunately, you were born with a rebellious bone behind your head, and if you had a little strength, you would be restless and want to rebel."
The Yi Nan sighed.
There is actually nothing to say about success and defeat of the enemy.
He has been dominating Mobei for more than ten years, with strong soldiers and strong horses. Seeing the civil strife in the Central Plains, he went south to Mobei, so of course he didn't want to go back.
Who would have expected that the Central Plains would not be in chaos, but would have become stronger.
Su Dingfang, who had no reputation, had such ability. If it were Li Jing, Li Ji and Zhang Chao who led the troops north, he would have withdrawn long ago.
Regret not to be greedy for a moment.
"I am willing to apologize to His Majesty the Emperor, and am willing to reform myself. I will be loyal to the emperor and the Tang Dynasty in the future."
Su Dingfang just smiled at the Yi Nan so quickly.
No one believes this kind of thing.
Such people, if they have milk, they will be mothers. If they have military strength, they want to rebel. They are not always rebellious and are born with a rebellious boy. If you believe in him, it is better to believe in sows and climb trees.
"Hahaha, the weather is really good today." Su Lie laughed.
The Yi Nan walked forward, bent down to Su Lie's feet, and kissed his boots.
"Yi Nan will always be loyal to the Tang Dynasty."
Su Lie shook his head. Such a person doesn’t even have a bottom line. The more he does, the less reassuring it is.
"Report!"
"General Gao Kan is here."
With the report, the right-wing cavalry general Gao Kan also came in.
There was still blood on Gao Kan's armor, so he stepped in and threw a golden wolf crow at Yi Nan's feet.
"Report to the Grand Marshal, the last general Gao Kan won the Xueyantuo Golden Wolf Crown."
Xueyantuo was a large tribe among the Tiel tribes. Tiel was also known as Dingling, Gaoche, Chile, etc. in the past. It was once ruled by the Xianbei and Turks. Although it once established the Gaoche Khanate, the Tiel Khanate and the current Xueyantu Khanate, it has always been relatively scattered.
When the Turks were destroyed, the Tielites occupied the northern part of the Mo, Xueyantuo established the country, and Yinan used the golden wolf of the Turkic Khan King as his khan flag.
A golden wolf flag is not just a handsome flag on the battlefield, but also similar to the imperial seal of the Central Plains.
"Hahaha!" Su Lie laughed and looked at Yi Nan and the big banner.
"Xue Rengui captured Khan Yi Nan alive, while Gao Kan won the Golden Wolf Crown, which is great."
Xue Rengui captured Khan alive and was the first to be the best. Gao Kan won the Golden Wolf Crown and was also the first to be ranked.
There was no sound of fighting near the military account. The Khan was captured, the Khan flag was taken, the Huguan was defeated and fled, and the Tang army was pursuing.
From time to time, cavalry came to report military information.
It was almost dark, the Uighur leader Yao Luo Getumi, and the Qiezi leader Qiezige came together.
The two knelt on one knee in front of the account and apologized, but did not dare to enter the account.
Su Lie came to the tent and helped the two of them up with his own hands.
"Both are meritorious ministers, please get up."
Accounting.
Both of them looked complicated when they saw Yi Nan kneeling in the tent tied up.
Before the war started, the Tang people contacted them several times, but they were all hesitant.
Who would have thought that in a battle, Xue Yantuo, the new overlord of the grassland, would be destroyed.
The Uighurs are now the most powerful tribes among the Tiel tribes, second only to Xueyantuo. Even in Xueyantuo Khan, the Uighurs won over the eastern Pugu, Tongluo, and Bayegu tribes, and established a Uighur alliance. Even Yinan could not directly command Tu Midu. The Uighur alliance and Xueyantuo were actually an alliance.
The Uighurs had strong soldiers and strong horses, and had a great influence in the east, with 100,000. The Yaoluoge tribe where Tumi was located had 20,000 cavalry.
The Qibi tribe was also a powerful tribe in Tiel, living in the western Jinshan area. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the leader of the Qibi, Gelang, had resisted the Turks with Yinan and established the Tiele Khanate. Yinan was the Great Khan and Gelang was the Little Khan.
The grassland is different from the Central Plains, and more similar to the tribal alliance. When the Turks were strong, the Tiel tribes belonged to the Turks, but they also had their own territory, their own tribal population and soldiers. They accepted the rule of the Turks and accepted the official positions they granted.
When it came to Xueyantuo, this arrangement had not changed much.
Yi Nan lived in the central part of the northern desert, while Qibi and Uighurs were both powerful princes who listened to the tune but not to the Xuan.
This time, under the joint attack of the Tang Dynasty, Uighurs and Qi Bi, Xue Yantuo was considered to be destroyed.
The most urgent task now is to take advantage of Xue Yantuo's illness and kill him. First, annihilate the dog and divide his population and territory.
Su Lie announced to Tu Midu and Ge Leng in front of Yi Nan.
The Tang Dynasty was still willing to fulfill its promise, and conferred Yao Luo Getumidu as the Khan of the Uighur Khanate, and conferred Qie Geling as the Khan of the Qie Cang. The two divisions were divided equally, Qie Cang lived in the west, the Uighur Khanate, and the southern part of the Desert was still directly under the leadership of the Tang Dynasty.
The two Khanate countries were vassal states of the Tang Dynasty, and the two Khanate kings were vassal kings of the Tang Dynasty.
As for Xueyantuo, this country will be eliminated.
