At night, Tang Hao was in his house.


    Chen Chumo and Tang Hao chatted around kraft paper for a while. After filling the two small pots of wine, Chen Chumo left.


    During this conversation, Tang Hao also basically knew the overall situation in the north and the arrangement of troops between the two sides.


    Tang Hao quietly looked at the cowhide map and began to ponder every detail of the raid in his heart.


    If you make a mistake, you will lose everything. You will even bury all the lives of these 3000 Qingqi in the vast grassland.


    This also made him have to be cautious.


    Tang Hao picked the wick to make the fire brighter.


    Recall every detail of Li Jing''s raid on the Turkic army in history.


    Suddenly!


    Tang Hao found a problem!


    "In history, Li Jing led thousands of light cavalry and thousands of miles to attack Yinshan. Finally, he reversed the overall situation and completely leveled the war situation in the north. That''s because Li Jing himself is the main general. The overall plan is under his control!"


    "In other words, at that time, all the troops led by Li Jing took his team as the core. Even if the war was anxious to the end, it must be a decisive battle after ensuring the safety of Li Jing''s surprise team."


    "And what if the leader of this Qingqi army is not Li Jing himself? Or someone else?"


    Thinking of this, Tang Hao''s heart suddenly fell to the bottom.


    Perhaps from his current performance, he has really performed well enough. He has achieved the character on the tip of the Tang Dynasty in both talent and martial arts. Empress Chang sun praised him and the king of the Tang Dynasty praised him. But Tang Hao was not arrogant enough to think that the war would be dominated by himself.


    In the overall situation of the Northern Territory, these big men who manipulated the Tang army are bound to abandon this light cavalry force for the final victory!


    Even for the final overall victory, he abandoned the aristocratic family disciples like Chumo!


    If you ride lightly to the golden tent King''s court, you will be found at the last minute of Yinshan.


    The main force of East Turks must withdraw. At that time, as the commander of Datang, how did Li Xiaogong choose?


    Do your best in a war!


    If Li Xiaogong chooses so, what awaits them will be an abyss of eternal doom.


    Faced with the encirclement, pursuit and interception of tens of thousands of Turkic troops, Tang Hao, who has the soul of martial arts in time, will certainly not break out of the encirclement.


    The final outcome is that Li Xiaogong leads the crowd to eat the retreating Turkic main forces, and these retreating Turkic main forces will surround and suppress none of their own light cavalry department!


    Tang Hao was cold in his heart.


    Recalling Li Xiaogong above the court, he blindly said the feasibility of this trip, but did not mention the protection of this team.


    Perhaps from the beginning, the coach ignored the life and death of this Qingqi and did not consider it!


    Unconsciously, Tang Hao clenched his teeth and clenched his fist secretly.


    The lives of these three thousand warriors can no longer depend on the commander, but can only be held in their own hands.


    long time.


    Tang Hao calmed down. If he was sitting in the position of coach now, he would do it for the sake of the overall situation.


    There is no way back.


    That''s it!


    Commander Li Xiaogong''s military order is to attack Xiangcheng and send troops to Yinshan.


    Then you might as well go straight to the golden tent court behind Yinshan and capture the Turkic royal family as a chip!


    When his mind became firm, Tang Hao stopped thinking and fell asleep.


    In the early morning, after the supply of 3000 armour soldiers, they quickly left the supply camp, bypassed Datong mansion, and finally disappeared into the vast northern wilderness.


    After supplying the camp several miles away from Mayi, Tang Hao ordered people to move out the purchased saltpeter and sulfur.


    It has to be said that Chumo''s luck is not generally good. Only three cans of nitrate purchased are "mirabilite", which can''t be used, and others can be used.


    Tang Hao ordered people to crush them one by one, and collected the burned logs in the camp to extinguish them. They were also crushed as charcoal.


    When they were ready, they set out on the road again. No one knew that there was such a team heading for the vast grassland in the suddenly changing north.


    Half a day later, the 3000 warriors led by Tang Hao arrived at the evil Yang ridge generation.


    At noon, while the spies were inquiring about the situation in Xiangcheng, Tang Hao took out the cans and mixed the three powders together.


    Sulfur and saltpeter were mixed, and the sun was burning in the sky. Tang Hao was afraid of an accident when mixing, so he ordered someone to move the jar to a small valley and study it by himself.


    By an hour, Tang Hao had packed the ten cans of powder, and added two cans of honey prepared in advance to increase the adhesion. In order to prevent an open fire from shaking, he buried the twisted gauze tape as a lead, so that seven or eight cans of crude black gunpowder were made.


    For today, although these black gunpowder are crude, there should be no big problem in blowing open the gate of Xiangcheng, a small city.


    Holding the made gunpowder jar, about two hours later, Tang Hao returned to the camp again with the made gunpowder jar.


    This is the boundary line between Datang and Turkic regions.


    To the south is Mayi city of Datang, and to the north is Xiangcheng occupied by Turks.


    Now all Tang Hao has to do is go straight to Xiangcheng and take the city before the Turks react.


    How to rely on these three thousand cavalry to take Xiangcheng is a test for this three thousand person team.


    Tang Hao doesn''t care about Xiangcheng at all. After all, Li Jing has captured it in history. He is confident that he has no problem.


    But compared with Tang Hao''s indifference, Chumo can''t sit still.


    "Brother Tang! Although the Turkic main force has moved eastward, there are still more than 1000 people stationed in Xiangcheng. What shall we do?"


    Tang Hao smiled faintly.


    "But there are only a thousand people. Don''t we have 3000 elite soldiers? Why worry?"


    Chen Chumo was still worried outside the camp.


    "It''s a big taboo for the cavalry to attack the city! I''m afraid we''ll lose a lot if we attack hard!"


    "Report!"


    Just then the spies sent out to inquire turned back.


    The Scout came at a gallop, got close, got off the horse, knelt on one knee and arched his hands.


    "General, there is a change in Xiangcheng ahead! A thousand Turkic cavalry have just entered Xiangcheng."


    Tang Hao and Chumo suddenly change their faces when they hear the spy''s report.


    Originally, a thousand garrisons could be stormed down, but now there are another thousand Turks, which undoubtedly doubled the number of garrisons in the city.


    Hearing the speech, Chumo frowns, and his already worried heart is like falling into an ice cellar.


    In the current situation, he can''t think of any way to break through the city.


    Xiangcheng is a vital place to go north. If you want to enter the Turkic rear, Xiangcheng must be broken!


    However, the 3000 light cavalry he led had no siege ladders and heavy weapons. It was almost impossible to rely on 3000 warriors to capture a city with 2000 defenders.


    Tang Hao''s face was dignified. He walked slowly up the mound and looked at the city looming on the grassland in the distance.


    For now, it seems that we can only rely on these bottles to win the city.
