Chapter 266: Defeat in Kucha
A hundred miles away from Xizhou, the yellow sand covers the sun.
King Xue Poanazhi of Yanqi led 30,000 elite troops on the road to Yizhou. The sky was filled with yellow sand and the scorching sun was scorching the earth. The Yanqi soldiers were riding on camels, and they were all listless.
Xue Po Anazhi knew that after the Tang Army occupied Yizhou, the next target must be Xizhou. Instead of waiting for the Tang Army to defeat them one by one, it was better to take the initiative and concentrate their forces to fight the Tang Army to the death.
These 30,000 elite troops are the largest force that Xue Po's army can gather. The armies of Xizhou, Tingzhou and Yanqi are all concentrated here.
Xue Po Anazhi¡¯s idea was to pass through the desert area, go straight to Yizhou, and launch a surprise attack on the Tang army. Only in this way can the Tang army be defeated.
There is a spring not far away from Yanqi Army. This is also the place where Yanqi Army replenishes its water source.
The Yanqi troops rushed into the spring on horseback, competing for this rare water source.
"Step aside!"
"Step aside!"
The Yanqi army was in chaos as they fought over each other.
On a high sand mountain near the spring, a black horse appeared. The knight on the horse was wearing heavy armor and had a contemptuous smile on his face. He was Li Zhen.
Is it finally here?
Thirty thousand Yanqi troops, with their own swords, can finally drink human blood!
"Get ready to fight!" Li Zhen yelled.
The next moment, countless war horses appeared on the high sand mountains surrounding the spring.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Tens of thousands of Tang Dynasty and Chumi allied troops launched a violent charge towards the chaotic Yanqi army at the foot of the mountain.
There was no suspense. Under the fire of the Tang Army's musketeers, the Yanqi Army fell to the ground piece by piece. The remaining troops were continuously chased and killed by Mo Dao soldiers and other elite Tang Army
The setting sun is like blood!
When the setting sun left its last trace, everything finally became quiet.
Because the Yanqi army was drinking water, it was impossible to effectively organize into a formation to resist. Under the continuous slaughter of the Tang army, the entire 30,000 Yanqi army was wiped out.
The corpses of the Yanqi army dyed the spring water blood red. The Yanqi king Xue Poanazhi was killed on the spot, tens of thousands of people were captured, and almost no one survived.
With the complete annihilation of the Yanqi army, the Tang army marched straight in, successively occupying Xizhou, Tingzhou, and Yanqi, and entered the northern border of Qiuci from the west of Yanqi.
A war that affects the future destiny of the Western Region is about to begin!
After learning that the Tang army had occupied the entire territory of Yanqi, King Halibushibi of Qiuci immediately mobilized an overwhelming force. More than 80,000 people fought with the Tang army. However, he was defeated by the Tang army and the capital was occupied. Halibushiji took five soldiers with him. Ten thousand remnant soldiers retreated to Dihuai City.
Diaochuan City is filled with gloom and gloom. Since the Tang army invaded the Kucha Kingdom, the Kucha Army has been defeated one after another. Now there are only 50,000 remnant soldiers holding on to the last line of defense - Diaochuan City.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If the Biaohuan City is attacked again, then the Kucha Kingdom will be destroyed.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????? King of Qiuci Halibu looked sad and said to his highness¡¯s ministers: ¡°The Tang army is powerful. Tell me how to defeat the Tang army?¡±
However, no one came out to speak for a long time.
Halibu was furious and said: "I usually see you talking loudly, but at the critical moment, you can't even come up with an idea. What use do I need from you!"
Ye Hu, the younger brother of Halibu, came out of the squad and said: "Your Majesty, the Tang army is powerful. We cannot defeat the Tang army with the strength of our army alone. We must ask for reinforcements."
"Reinforcements? We, Qiuci, are the largest country in the Western Region. Even we have failed. Where can we find reinforcements?" Halibushibi shook his head and said.
Ye Hu thought for a while and said: "Now, only the Western Turks can help us."
"Western Turks? They have always been eyeing me Qiuci. If they attract the Western Turks here, they will simply drink doves to quench their thirst and lure wolves into the house." Haribushibi said.
"Do we have a better way?" Ye Hu asked.
When Ye Hu said this, everyone was speechless. Yes, the Tang army was powerful. Apart from the Western Turks who could and dared to fight, who else would be willing to fight against the Tang army for Qiuci?
Other countries nearby may not even have time to take care of themselves.
"The Tang Dynasty wants to destroy us, and the Western Turks want to destroy us, so let's let them both come and see who can beat the other. Maybe, we can survive in the gap between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks." Ye Hu said.
?In the Kingdom of Qiuci, Ye Hu is a famous wise man, but Halibushibi has always been very afraid of his younger brother, worried that he would snatch his throne.
But now, he doesn¡¯t care much anymore. Helibushibi knows that only by listening to Ye Hu¡¯s advice can he save the Kingdom of Qiuci.
The next moment, Haribushibi seemed to have aged ten years suddenly, and said feebly: "Okay, that's the only way it can be."
"It's just that now that the Tang army has completely surrounded Diaochuan City, how can we ask for help from the Turks?"
"Will the Turks listen to our plea for help?"
Ye Hu said: "The Yibidulu Khan of the Western Turks is a very ambitious man. He has always wanted to control Qiuci and compete with the Tang Dynasty. If we become a vassal state of the Western Turks, we will allow the Western Turks to control Qiuci." If we garrison our troops here, Yibidulu Khan will definitely send troops to rescue us."
Halibushibi nodded and said, "Okay, then how can we send the news of help to the Western Turks?"
Ye Hu thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan that can help our envoy escape from the siege of the Tang army."
"Oh? What's the plan?"
Ye Hu immediately whispered in Haribushibi¡¯s ear
Outside the city, the scorching sun is in the sky.
Xue Rengui was so hot that he took off his clothes and armor and kept fanning himself there.
"Wow!"
Zhou Qing was shirtless, pouring a bucket of freshly poured water over himself, shaking his head.
"Damn, this summer in the Western Region is too hot. I can't stand it. I can't stand it." Cheng Chuli muttered and took off all the armor on his body. The armor was radiating heat. Cheng Chuli simply took out the pieces of meat. He put it on the armor piece and kept turning it, and the aroma of meat came to his nose. Cheng Chuli put it in his mouth and chewed it continuously, making a squeaking sound.
Li Zhen was very happy. She made a big sunshade umbrella out of cloth and asked craftsmen to build two deck chairs. There was a table next to her. She only wore a pair of big pants and lay on the chairs to sunbathe.
There was half a watermelon on the table, with a happy look on his face.
It gives the impression that Li Zhen does not come here to fight, but rather as if he is here for leisure and vacation.
Ina was lying on another lounge chair, wearing only a sexy short shirt, which looked different.
Li Zhen stretched his waist and slowly sat up. At this moment, he saw the closed door of Bahuan City slowly opening (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com
