    Yinshan Mountain is nearly 100 kilometers from north to south. What connects the north and south is the valley in the mountain, which is called "Daokou".  There are many crossings in Yinshan Mountain, dozens of them, and the most important crossing is called "Baidao".

    Baidao is the flattest, widest and most convenient crossing in Yinshan Mountain.  The Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Turks passed through Li and went south countless times, harassing the northern land.

    A group of Turkic herdsmen riding horses, driving cattle and sheep, and singing pastoral songs were passing by.  The Yinshan Mountains stretch for 1,200 kilometers and are a climatic watershed in the desert. The southern part of the mountain is warm and has abundant rain, while the northern part of the mountain is cold. Once you cross the Baidao and enter the southern part of the mountain, you are back to the "Land of the Hetao", the dream home of the Turks.

    The herdsmen passing through the Baidao were in high spirits, cheering constantly, shouting "Go home! Go home!" from time to time, driving their cattle and sheep, and left happily.

    This situation has continued for seven or eight days, and now, the last batch of herdsmen have passed through the Baidao.  The 400,000 Turkic troops and hundreds of thousands of herdsmen who went south this time have all entered Shannan. It is time to take action.

    On a mountain peak not far from Baidao, Cheng Xiaotian was watching all this with a telescope.  The telescope was built by Chen Wanrong at the command of the Ordnance Supervisor. Every general on this expedition had one. Having a telescope would be much more convenient and he could see clearly from a distance.

    Cheng Xiaotian put down the telescope and turned around to a mountain col.  There are thousands of Tang troops in the mountain col, and they are waiting quietly.  The war horse beside him held the coin in his mouth and made no sound.

    "Brothers, all the Turks have passed, it's time for us to take action." Cheng Xiaotian's voice rose: "In the past few days, we have been drinking horse meat and eating cold meat here, and we have become a bird in our mouths.  Do you want a change of taste?"

    Cheng Xiaotian and others were responsible for cutting off the Turks' retreat, and they had already arrived at Yinshan Mountain to ambush them.  In order to keep it secret, everyone cooked cold meals, drank ice-cold horseradish, and ate raw cold meat. For several days, they didn't even have a sip of hot water.  Many soldiers' mouths were bruised, but they had no resentment and still carried out the orders.

    Meticulous execution of orders is one of the great virtues of the Tang Army.

    ¡°Think!¡± Thousands of people shouted in unison.

    "If you think about it, act on it!" Cheng Xiaotian jumped on his horse, patted the horse's back, and rushed out first.  Behind him, thousands of Tang troops rode on war horses, galloping out of the mountain plains like the wind, heading towards Baidao to cover up the enemy.

    It was not stupid to silently put a thousand Turkic soldiers on the white road to defend it.  However, a thousand Turkic troops were no match for thousands of Tang troops. As soon as the Tang troops charged, their ranks were in disarray. After a series of cover-up attacks, the thousands of Turkic troops were wiped out.

    Cheng Xiaotian wiped the bleeding Hengdao and ordered: "Inform the commander immediately that all the Turks have arrived in Shannan. We have captured the Baidao. The other crossings are under control! I, Cheng Xiaotian, promise not to let a single  The Turks escape!¡±

    At the same time that Cheng Xiaotian captured Baidao, other Tang troops responsible for capturing the crossings were also taking action. The crossings in Yinshan were being captured one after another, and the passage to retreat northward had been cut off.

    "Counting the time, all the Turks have almost passed, and we should prepare to attack." Chen Wanrong drank hot horse milk and said, "Commander, how do you plan to fight this battle?"

    "First put the Turks in the south of Shannan, then cut off the retreat, and then face the enemy head-on." Zhang Shougui had already known what he was doing.

    Chen Wanrong knew that he had misunderstood and clarified: "Commander, that's not what I meant. I meant how to deal with the surrendered Turkic troops and people."

    "Well, the court has its own regulations. Those who surrender will be treated well, and those who don't will be killed!" Zhang Shougui blurted out the answer without thinking.

    Chen Wanrong knew that this was a traditional strategy for dealing with nomads, and was not surprised at all: "However, there is a drawback to this. Think about it, the Turks are afraid of us, and if they are disadvantaged, they will surrender. Then, the court treated them favorably.  Then, arrange them in various places. After a few years, they have recovered their strength, is it possible to guarantee that there will not be a second rebellion? "

    Zhang Shougui waved his hand and said: "Supervisor, this matter is for the emperor to consider, not for us."

    He is a typical soldier who just follows orders and does not need to think about other things that are not his business.

    Chen Wanrong didn't see it that way: "There are some things we should consider and think about. I have thought about it. When Li Jing attacked Yinshan at night, he used surprise troops and easily destroyed the Turks. However, due to the incident,  Suddenly, the Turkic army did not organize effective resistance. It can be said that there was no resistance at all. Therefore, the Turks did not suffer any losses."

    "Jianjun, what you said is wrong. All the Turkic troops surrendered. Isn't this a loss?" Zhang Shougui disagreed with Chen Wan.Talk.

    ¡°Speaking of which, have you sent out scouts?¡± Mo Chui asked anxiously.

    ¡°Khan, it¡¯s been sent! It¡¯s been sent!¡±

    "The Tang army will definitely counterattack, how can we dare to take it lightly!"

    The ministers wanted to continue talking, so they silently shouted: "Shut up!" They raised their ears and listened.

    There were sounds of war drums coming from different directions.  After a while, drums sounded again further away.  In this way, the sound of drums spread to distant places.

    "What kind of tricks are the Tang people playing?"

    "They say it's an attack, but their troops are nowhere to be seen! Do they have wings and can fly?"

    "This is their order to attack!" Mochu suddenly understood, staggered and almost fell to the ground.

    "Khan, we all know that this is the Tang army's attack order, but where are their troops?" The ministers asked strangely.

    Mo Chui roared angrily in his heart, "They have hidden their troops for a long time, just waiting for us to get into it! This is a trap, a huge trap! No, we did not capture Zhongshoujiang City, they deliberately threw it  For us!¡±

    Mo Chui realized that he had been fooled, he let out a sullen breath, opened his mouth, and a mouthful of blood rushed out, spraying far away.  The officials were so panicked that they all asked, "Khan, what's wrong with you?"

    "Quickly, send out all the scouts to find out the news about the Tang army!" Mochu tried his best to control himself and kept telling himself that he couldn't panic or get confused. Even so, he could only barely control himself.

    If others don¡¯t understand, why can¡¯t he understand what the sound of drums means?  This is the Tang army delivering a message. It can be said that wherever the drum beats, there is a team of Tang soldiers.  He could hear more than a dozen of them here, which meant that there were at least ten groups of Tang troops near Zhongshoujiang City.

    Based on a minimum estimate, the number of Tang troops at each location would never be less than 5,000. There were nearly 100,000 Tang troops in more than a dozen locations.

    This is what he can hear. In the vast Hetao land, troops can be hidden everywhere. No one can tell how many more soldiers the Tang Dynasty hid.

    He couldn¡¯t tell the number of Tang¡¯s troops, but Mo Chu was sure of one thing. Since Tang¡¯s troops were setting a trap for him to exploit, the number of troops dispatched this time would be at least hundreds of thousands.  With so many Tang troops pressing forward, with the current combat strength of the Turkic army, he would have to invest at least two million troops to barely maintain the balance of power.

    Two million troops, even if all the Turks were gathered together, would not be that many.

    If one person is not good, his whole army will be wiped out!  The country will be destroyed!

    He took a breath, calmed his mind a little, and then asked silently: "Is there any news from the Yinshan crossing?"

    If the crossing of Yinshan Mountain is still there and the situation is unfavorable, he can retreat to the north of Yinshan Mountain.  As long as he reaches the north of Yinshan Mountain, he can rely on the vast grassland to deal with the Tang army.

    However, no news came from the Yinshan Pass, and the ministers could not answer.

    There is no news. It is possible that the crossing has been lost. Mo Chu feels that the situation is very critical.  (To be continued.
