Commander camp.


    Today, the 100000 elite soldiers brought by Li Xiaogong have been quietly integrated into the Su dingfang army, and all the snares of the war have been arranged.


    Li Xiaogong took a sip of tea instead of wine and asked.


    "What''s happening now?"


    The deputy general looked dignified and hugged boxing.


    "Worse than we expected. According to the scouts, the grassland is still increasing troops. According to a rough estimate, there are about 180000 Turks."


    Listening to this number, Li Xiaogong frowned.


    150000 against 180000. In terms of numbers alone, the Turkic side has an advantage.


    Li Xiaogong touched his chin and said in a deep voice.


    "According to the current situation, if the war breaks out, it will have no advantage for Datang."


    The deputy general was silent, and the number of Turkic troops in front of him completely exceeded their expectations.


    There was silence in the camp.


    The deputy general smiled bitterly.


    "This stalemate is not the way. According to my estimation, the Turkic force will eventually rise to 190000, and then..."


    Half said, the deputy general did not go on.


    There is no doubt that the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty are well equipped. Although these barbarians are inferior to the Tang Dynasty in terms of equipment, they have their own advantages. They grew up on horseback, are good at riding and shooting, and have extraordinary archery. Moreover, these barbarians are naturally brave and belligerent.


    As far as the current situation is concerned, if Jieli Khan does not divide his troops, this war is doomed to be unable to start for Datang.


    Looking at Li Xiaogong''s slightly old face, the deputy general sighed slightly in his heart.


    "Hey! General Li, who has made outstanding contributions, is a veteran. His mind is not as radical as when he was young. He is steady and steady. He has become a benchmark in his heart. If he goes on like this, he will miss many good opportunities in vain!"


    Li Xiaogong was silent for a long time, and suddenly the conversation changed.


    "Why didn''t the Turkic army split up? What happened to Xiangcheng?"


    The deputy general smiled bitterly and said, "I have sent scouts to investigate. I think there will be news soon."


    Seeing Li Xiaogong lost in thought again, the deputy general estimated that Li Xiaogong still focused on the Turkic troops, and then said tentatively.


    "General, the Turks are still sending more troops now, and the war is imminent. Even if the news comes from Xiangcheng on the west side, I''m afraid the Turks will not rush to send troops for the sake of the overall situation."


    Li Xiaogong seems to have found the spearhead for the crime. As soon as he patted the table in front of him, he turned over the tea set and roared.


    "Delay the fighter! If I can''t win this battle, I will punish those two boys!"


    Surprised by Li Xiaogong''s sudden anger, the deputy general couldn''t help trembling in his heart and said in his heart.


    "It''s the military order given by the commander to attack Xiangcheng and go straight to Yinshan. However, these days have passed, Xiangcheng is like a backwater without any movement. The crime of delaying the fighter plane is enough for two boys to drink a pot."


    The deputy general had some sympathy for the two young boys, but now he is a little sorry. After all, he will lose his head if he takes the charge.


    "Report."


    Just then, a scout rushed into the account, half kneeling on the ground, looking in a hurry.


    Li Xiaogong''s face was gloomy. Looking at the scout, his anger did not decrease and shouted.


    "What''s up!"


    The Scout shouted back.


    "Datong government reported that Xiangcheng has been broken."


    As soon as they said this, Li Xiaogong and the deputy general changed their faces slightly.


    The deputy general hurriedly asked, "when did it happen?"


    The Scout said truthfully.


    "The scouts from Datong mansion approached Xiangcheng two days ago and found that the gate of Xiangcheng was wide open. When they approached, they found that Xiangcheng was in ruins. Judging from the burned Turk bodies, it should be on August 20."


    August 20!


    Hearing this date, Li Xiaogong and the deputy general looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other''s eyes.


    Isn''t the date of this song just the day when Tang Hao left Mayi and went to evil Yang ridge?


    According to the Scout''s calculation, it seems that Tang Hao''s team must have won Xiangcheng on the day when they arrived at the evil Yang ridge!


    Thinking of this, Li Xiaogong and the deputy general were slightly moved.


    The deputy general only felt his throat dry, as if listening to myths. His face was full of incredible, and said slowly.


    "This... How can it be? Calculate the mysterious armour that Tang Hao secretly mobilized is only three thousand and three hundred horses, and the cavalry captured Xiangcheng."


    "They don''t have any siege equipment! How can they climb to the top of the city with strong walls? Besides, there are 900 Turks stationed in the city! This... How can this happen?"


    The Scout glanced at them secretly and added.


    "Report back to the general that there are more than 2000 dead Turks in the city. Not 900."


    The deputy general slumped on the chair beside the camp, muttered at the tent ceiling and said.


    "Even if the Turkic soldiers have no power to fight back, can they still fly? Can they cross the two foot wall?"


    Li Xiaogong took a breath, his face looked complex, and he couldn''t understand the reason by touching his chin.


    Suddenly, Li Xiaogong understood.


    Why did the Turkic army of Jieli Khan not show any signs of mobilization in recent days.


    It turns out that Tang Hao slaughtered all the Turkic soldiers in Xiangcheng, and none of them still reported. No wonder Jieli Khan didn''t get the news of the destruction of the city!
