Chapter 297 Fighting (Part 1)

Li Shimin didn't think so much, or he didn't expect An Xinggui to rebel directly, and he chose to do this at this point in time.

As the pigeon passing the letter from the flying pigeon left here, the air around seemed to become solemn, only the person involved was not sure about the crisis. A few hours later, An Xinggui in Wuwei received a letter from the flying pigeon from the eyeliner.

After seeing the contents clearly, he sent their An's secret guards to send a message to An Hu without saying a word. When he finished all this, An Xinggui also called everyone in the current military camp over.

At this moment, An Xinggui was in a camp not far from Li Shimin. Among them, there were soldiers controlled by the An clan of Wuwei over the years. There were a total of 10,000, including 3,000 cavalry and 7,000 infantry. These people were closely related to the entire An clan and the nine surnames of Zhaowu. These people would not betray An Xinggui and others.

At this moment, among the main camp of the camp, An Xinggui and his main generals of the An family were also concentrated here.

"Everyone, Li Shimin has arrived about two days away from Wuwei, and about half a day away from the ambush we set up in advance. According to this distance, we will arrive in about half a day tomorrow, and Jie Li's army has been ambushing near this location."

"If nothing unexpected happens, when we arrive tomorrow, Li Shimin should fall into Jie Li's hands. Even if there is a little accident, he will not be able to escape the pursuit of Jie Li's tens of thousands of troops. We have a small team that has already lie on the way Li Shimin returns westward."

"So far, he has not noticed any abnormality, which means he can't escape! Everyone, we will definitely win this time!" An Xinggui was a little excited! Because An Xinggui decided to rebel this time, he took a very big risk.

But when Li Shimin left Dunhuang County and he did not notice An Xinggui's actions, the most important thing was that Jie Li's army had arrived nearby quietly, which meant that they could almost be said to be 100% successful without any surprises.

Because the best troops nearby that can rescue Li Shimin are thousands of miles away, the nearby city guards have no time to come to rescue. Besides, the largest nearby cities are Wuwei, Jinchang and Zhangye.

Zhangye is too far away from Li Shimin, and there is an early arrangement of An Xinggui in that direction, a small army composed of An's dead soldiers. If Li Shimin wants to retreat, the three thousand imperial guards around him must block the enemy, and there will not be too many people around Li Shimin.

Even if the Imperial Guards were left to block the enemy, Jie Li, who led 40,000 cavalry, could send enough troops to bypass the battlefield and pursue Li Shimin.

And that small army didn't need to kill Li Shimin, it just needed to slow down their speed, which was completely possible.

Therefore, if Li Shimin ran in that direction, he would not be able to escape. As for Jinchang City, that place was An Xinggui's territory! It would be better if Li Shimin went there! Apart from these three places, Li Shimin had no way to escape!

So how can An Xinggui not be excited? Although he may not be able to win Li Shimin, An Xinggui can become the emperor. At least, Liangzhou and Guazhou can be defeated by Jie Li! When Li Shimin died, An Xinggui believed that the entire Tang Dynasty would immediately become in chaos, and Shi Wei and Goguryeo in the northeast would never be settled!

There are also some loyal ministers from the former Sui Dynasty in various parts of the Tang Dynasty. Although they are now dormant, it is because the Tang Dynasty has completed unification, but once Li Shimin dies, this matter may not be necessary!

The most important thing is that once Li Shimin died, An Xinggui, the troops of Liangzhou and Guazhou, could control it. Otherwise, he could only control some loyal people now, and An Xinggui, the other swinging troops, could not tell them such a secret matter.

"Congratulations to the lord!" All the generals in the tent smiled and bowed their hands. They were also a little excited. If Li Shimin was taken down, they would be attacked by the dragon. It is impossible for An Xinggui to ascend the throne in the future. After all, wasn't the Li family also ascended the throne in this state?

"Everyone, the next thing will become very critical. Make a meal early tomorrow morning and set off! Tell them that if you win this battle, everyone will be promoted to three levels in a row. If there are sacrifices, I will increase their pension ten times. As long as my family is alive, I will take good care of them!" An Xinggui said loudly.

"yes!"

...

Night soon came, and Li Shimin and his large troops also began to camp. The Imperial Guard had chosen a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and cleared everyone around. In fact, no one else dared to approach them in this place.

Once you are misunderstood and if you are beaten to death, it will be vain.

There was nothing to say all night. When the fish belly rose in the east, An Xinggui's military camp dozens of miles away had already started cooking. They did not choose to attack Li Shimin's camp at night because they could not see clearly at night. If Li Shimin ran away, the problem would be serious.

They cannot allow such a foolproof scene to make any mistakes, so they choose to attack during the day. As long as Li Shimin and others do not notice it, then attacking during the day is naturally the best choice.

After the whole army had a full meal, An Xinggui directly led the three thousand cavalry leaders to quickly start moving forward. He did not rush over because at this time, everything could not be rushed, and Li Shimin was nearby. If the anxiety caused the matter to be exposed at this time, it would be more than worth the loss.

Although An Xinggui's heartbeat was so strong, he still stabilized. Not only An Xinggui, but all the Turks on Jie Li were also ready, and they did not attack, but there were already scouts on the mountain next to the official road ahead that had been secretly hiding there.

When they see Li Shimin's team, they will immediately dispatch. Such a large cavalry will probably be aware of it, which is two or three miles away, so they must not have enough time to react.

If someone could see it at the high altitude at this moment, they would find that three different forces were approaching one place, and the sun was rising little by little, as if the sun could not bear to see such a scene. The clouds in the sky blocked the sun.

When Li Shimin and his team finally crossed a certain location that had been decided long ago, they saw two scouts from the entire team from afar immediately turned over and turned around and ran back, leaving only one scout on the spot to continue observing.

At present, Li Shimin didn't know that there was a conspiracy against him ahead. When the two scouts arrived at An Hu's place and reported, Jie Li took a deep breath, turned over and took out the long sword from his waist, and shouted loudly: "Turkish warriors!"

"Today we want these Han people to know that our Turkic warriors are the most brave warriors in the world. Now follow me to capture the emperor of the Tang Dynasty! Whoever captured the emperor of the Tang Dynasty will reward five thousand sheep and one hundred beauties!"

"Oh..." In an instant, all the Turks began to cheer wildly. There were still five or six miles away from the target, so naturally there was no need to worry about the other party hearing it.

"Start!" Jie Li waved his long sword and led the team forward directly. An Hu didn't say anything, but just kept up silently. At this time, nothing he said was useless.

At this time, even if An Xinggui didn't want to rebel, Jie Li would not be able to give up the great opportunity in front of him.

Last year outside Chang'an City, because Li Shimin was in Chang'an City with a tall wall, and the Turks could not capture the city without siege weapons, he had to sign an alliance with Li Shimin. If there were any choices, how could Jie Li let Li Shimin go?

And now, Li Shimin has no city walls and he is in the wild, this will be their best opportunity!

However, even so, Jie Li did not run wildly because he knew that if he ran wildly at this time, the horse would be exhausted when he approached the opponent, and it was not the best time to attack.

The 40,000 elite cavalry left the valley where they were hiding at normal walking speed.

It is naturally impossible to rush into this valley. When Jie Li and his vanguard cavalry rushed out of the valley next to them and could already be seen on the official road, the vanguard cavalry who had received the order directly started charging, and they wanted to intercept everyone on the official road.

At this moment, a caravan with the "Han" flag on the official road was moving forward. This caravan was composed of Han and Turkic people. They were the official transportation convoy of the Han Dynasty composed of Mingyue.

Hu Tu, who was walking in a carriage, looked at the scenery in front of him and was curious. This was the territory of the Tang Dynasty and he had never been there. Hu Tu was not a Han Chinese, but a Turkic. The reason why he called the name Hu Tu was because his original Turkic name was similar to this name. Later, the leader asked them to learn Chinese and gave themselves a Han Chinese name.

After asking the gentleman who taught them Chinese, Hutu gave himself this name. Hutu was originally a cavalryman who followed Ashiye, but after they integrated into the leader, they no longer had to fight.

Hu Tu was extremely satisfied with his current life. Although he had fought with Ashiye in the past, his family was actually barely able to make a living. Now there are more than 20 sheep in their family, all of which belong to them, as well as their own horses. His wife, children, and his parents can all have a full meal!

And not only can you eat a full meal, but you can also eat well! Hu Tu didn’t dare to think about such a life before! Now they not only have excellent forage grass with alfalfa, which means that cattle and sheep can gain weight in winter, but they all have new houses, houses built of cement bricks and stones!

This house is too warm. They no longer have to be afraid of wind and snow in winter, and they don’t have to worry about any child being frozen to death.
