Life is so wonderful.
At the same age, the same nobility, some people are happy in singing and dancing, while some people have to travel day and night, carrying the fate of the Tang Dynasty all the way.
Datong City, gradually appeared on the horizon.
After running for three consecutive days, the 20000 cavalry led by Tang Hao were exhausted again and had reached the edge of the limit.
Tang Hao, riding on the war horse, patted his stiff face and fought back to drive away the fatigue.
The dust rolled and the hooves rumbled.
Twenty thousand elite soldiers closely followed Tang Hao. Forty thousand war horses were sandwiched between galloping horses and came all the way to Datong house.
The night is still.
Li daozong, the king of Jiangxia Prefecture, with more than 100 warriors, waited outside Datong house.
Two days ago, it was reported from the imperial city that there would be an army of 20000 people who would go through Datong to replenish and repair.
As for other news, it was not mentioned in the note.
At this moment, Li daozong still doesn''t know what mission this cavalry is, let alone who is the general leading this cavalry.
"General, here they are."
The deputy general gave a reminder.
With this sound, Li daozong looked away from the distance.
In the darkness, on the horizon, a row of dark shadows came towards this side.
The rumble of horse hoofs came from far to near.
At dawn, Li daozong stared at the figure of the most advanced school.
In a trance, Li daozong vaguely saw the figure, as if he had seen it there.
When he came near, Li daozong was stunned when he saw the young face.
Tang Hao!
It''s Tang Hao!
Tang Hao approached, reined in the horse, rolled off the horse, arched his hands and hugged his fists.
"The last general, I have seen the king of Jiangxia county."
The sound was full of sleepiness and fatigue.
With Tang Hao dismounting, the 20000 cavalry behind him also stopped and stopped.
The whole field was silent.
Until now, Li daozong was sure that the young boy was the commander of the 20000 elite cavalry.
Looking at the dusty young man in front of him, Li daozong could not help but be infinitely surprised and praised, but more infinitely filled with emotion.
After a short separation, when I saw Tang Hao again at this time, I had already become 20000 elite managers.
Compared with the generals of the same age in Chang''an City, the one who has made the highest achievements is just a new general, and the new one is Chumo. It can be said that he has received the gospel of Tang Hao.
Li daozong walked forward, full of sobs.
"Nephew, I said goodbye that day. It''s more than a month now, but I never thought that you and I would meet here again."
Tang Hao, however, looked bland and said.
"This time, I''m going to bother the king of Jiangxia again. Please forgive me. Now the soldiers and horses are tired. I hope the king of Jiangxia can find a place to supply."
Time is pressing. Tang Hao doesn''t want to talk to Li daozongla.
As a veteran on the battlefield, Li daozong was not angry at Tang Hao''s indifference, but felt that Tang Hao was more stable at this time.
Tang Hao knows his own goal and can remember his goal all the time. It''s a good thing that some trivial things that are not conducive to the goal disappear.
Li daozong also said directly.
"The forage and food have been matched. The soldiers'' meals have been prepared. Let''s go into the city."
Datong mansion is a transit station, behind which is the beginning of the long attack.
What Tang Hao and these soldiers need is non-stop rest to quickly recover their physical strength.
After eating some meat and filling his stomach, Tang Hao plunged into the tent and went to sleep.
There was silence in the huge military camp. There was no sound except the snoring from the military accounts in January.
Datong city gate was closed again, and the camp where Zuo Xiaowei temporarily rested was garrisoned by more than 1000 warriors sent by Li daozong.
Li daozong stood on the lookout platform and paid close attention to every move inside and outside the camp.
The deputy general beside him couldn''t help asking.
"Lord, look at their appearance, it must be a few days'' rush. What are they in such a hurry for?"
Li daozong continued to pay attention to the camp and said in a deep voice.
"Don''t ask for something you shouldn''t ask."
Hearing the speech, the deputy general shut up on the spot and said nothing.
Maybe others couldn''t understand the intention of the cavalry, and Li daozong completely understood the moment he saw Tang Hao.
The way of surprise attack.
This time, like the last time, we took the strategy of surprise attack, took the western line, entered the grassland and went straight into the Turkic rear.
However, this time is different from the last small fight of 3000 people. This time it is an elite force of 20000 people.
However, the key to the strategy of surprise attack is to be surprised. Will the Turks really make the surprise attack successful after the tragic experience of the last time?
Li daozong was deeply suspicious.
The Xiangcheng city has been recovered, and Li Wanqing''s 3000 soldiers have just entered the city. There are 5000 soldiers, which is as solid as gold.
In Xiangcheng, Baidao City, close to the Turkic grassland, was occupied by the Turks again, which became the new boundary between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks.
In Baidao City, it is known that 8000 soldiers are stationed. Can Tang Hao really get up and destroy the city like last time?
Deyang thousands of miles away.
The war started without warning.
Of course, it was not a provocation by the Tang sergeant, but a test by the Turkic army.
The arrows, like raindrops, shot down and fell on the Datang military camp.
Tang troops everywhere took strict precautions and fought back with arrows with the help of fortifications. They did not go out of the camp to fight with Turkic soldiers.
This is Li Jing''s death order. Otherwise, how can you trap these hot-blooded men in Datang.
However, military orders are like mountains.
Even if the Tang Sergeant held his breath, no one dared to disobey the military order, let alone rush out of the camp.
