But if you choose the latter, once the momentum of the charge stops, you will be surrounded by the endless Turkic army, and it will be difficult to charge.
In other words.
Jieli Khan can kill.
But it might cost them all their lives.
Xue Rengui looked back at the soldiers of the Flying Cavalry Company who were fighting, and couldn't help recalling Li Xiao's entrustment in his mind.
……
"Be sure to live and wait for my return!"
……
Just when Xue Rengui was hesitating, Jieli Khan in the distance suddenly shouted loudly: "Withdraw! Quickly withdraw! Cover me and leave here!"
In an instant, the remaining Turkic warriors abandoned their opponents one after another, surrounded Jieli Khan, and fled in a panic.
This is a fart!
Didn't you see that even the second warrior was killed?
The horror of this hidden weapon has been deeply engraved in the minds of all Turkic people.
The remaining warriors even felt that as long as they stayed a little longer, they would follow in the footsteps of Liehong.
Therefore, after hearing Jieli Khan's retreat order, they slipped away without any hesitation.
Seeing this, Xue Rengui's eyes flashed with unwillingness, and he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Get out!"
……
Jizhou City Wall.
"Look, Dad!"
Qin Huaiyu shouted excitedly: "The Turkic podium has been withdrawn!"
After finishing speaking, he blushed and said ecstatically: "Their command flag has also fallen, and their morale will surely fall to the bottom. If we lead the army to fight out at this time, we will surely win!"
Kill out?
A trace of hesitation flashed across Qin Qiong's face.
Twenty thousand versus 20.
The strength is too great.
Even if the opponent's podium is gone, morale will plummet, but Jizhou still has no chance of winning.
Even, the city will be lost because of this.
And even if they were chased and killed, it would only expand the results of the battle, and it could not be said to defeat the enemy.
"Father, don't hesitate any longer."
Qin Huaidao said in a deep voice: "There are too many Turkic soldiers, and the ghost riders need our help. We only need to pretend to attack aggressively and disturb the minds of the Turkic people, so that the ghost riders can evacuate safely."
Hearing this, Qin Qiong glanced at his son appreciatively, and ordered: "Everyone listen!"
"Open the city gate!"
"Follow me out!"
……
Not long after, the soldiers of Jizhou were ready to go, and the gates of the city were opened wide.
"kill!"
"kill!"
Accompanied by the screams of killing, [-] soldiers from Jizhou rushed out of the city gate.
On the other side, Xue Rengui, who heard the commotion here, looked back and couldn't help frowning: "What nonsense!"
"Everyone in the flying cavalry company, evacuate quickly!"
He understood that only by evacuating as soon as possible can the soldiers of Jizhou retreat to the city.
At this time, the flying cavalry company has thousands of cavalry soldiers, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.
Wherever he passed, there was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
No one can stand in their way.
Soon, the Flying Cavalry Company broke through the siege and quickly disappeared on the horizon.
The Turkic soldiers panicked as early as when the podium was withdrawn.
How could they have never heard of the horror legend of ghost riding.
Seeing this scene, they thought it was Khan who was killed.
Is this still available?
Fear instantly spread in the Turkic camp.
The so-called defeat is like a mountain, which is exactly the case.
After hearing the shouts of the Jizhou soldiers, the Turkic soldiers fled in a hurry like frightened birds.
"Win!"
Qin Qiong looked at the Turkic camp that had been defeated like a mountain, and shouted excitedly: "We have won!"
"If it weren't for the appearance of ghost riders, Jizhou would be in danger!"
Qin Qiong led Jizhou soldiers to chase and kill for several miles, then withdrew to the city.
Everyone on the city wall was excited.
"Ghost riding is invincible!"
"Ghost ride!"
"Ghost ride!"
Not knowing who was leading the charge, all the soldiers raised their weapons and shouted excitedly.
……
An hour later, in the city of Dezhou, a hundred miles southeast of Jizhou.
Li Keteng stood up suddenly: "What did you say?!"
"Your Highness," said the messenger soldier, "Ghost riders appeared, entered the camp of the Turkic army, and attacked Huanglong directly."
"The specific results of the battle are not known, but the Turkic Khan hurriedly withdrew, so that the army was defeated, and General Qin led his army out of the city to chase and kill him for several miles..."
"Jizhou, defend it?!"
Li Ke had an unbelievable expression on his face.
There was also a trace of resentment in his eyes.
This ghost ride, come sooner or later.
He just came here not long after he left Jizhou.
I thought that Qin Qiong would be buried with Jizhou.
In this way, no one will know the news that he abandoned the city and fled.
But now, Qin Qiong not only survived, but also guarded Jizhou.
How is this good?
"Your Highness."
Next to him, Chang Sun Chong said thoughtfully, "I have a plan."
"Say it!"
Chang Sun Chong cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness will set off immediately, return to Jizhou quickly, and enter the city secretly. Anyway, no one has seen His Highness leave with his own eyes."
"Afterwards, His Highness also has a share in the defense of the city."
"Wonderful!"
Li Ke clapped his hands in ecstasy.
Not only is there no fault, but there is also great merit.
Why didn't he think of it?
"It's not too late, I'll go back right away!"
Speaking of this, Li Ke suddenly frowned, and told Chang Sun Chong: "Chang Sun Chong, I order you to mobilize all forces and find the ghost rider's lair."
"Your Highness wants to recruit them?" Chang Sun Chong asked doubtfully.
"Of course!"
Li Ke said without hesitation: "The strength of ghost cavalry is ten times stronger than that of my father's Xuanjia army. If such an elite army can be used by me..."
As he spoke, a trace of greed flashed in Li Ke's eyes.
"As ordered!"
Chapter 266: Extraordinary Times, Doing Extraordinary Things
Chang'an City, the Imperial Palace.
In the imperial study room, Li Erjing sat here with a worried look on his face.
Three years had left indelible marks on his face.
Compared with three years ago, he looked more vicissitudes and exhaustion.
His left hand, still wrapped in bandages, seems to have been injured not long ago.
Suddenly, the eunuch's voice sounded outside the door.
"Your Majesty, an urgent report from the front line!"
"quick!"
Li Er suddenly raised his head, a sharp light flashed in his eyes: "Show me!"
Immediately afterwards, an official from the Ministry of War came in, with a happy face, and couldn't wait to shout: "Your Majesty! Great joy!"
After speaking, he handed a booklet to the eunuch.
Hearing this, Li Er immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his brows relaxed a little.
"Say!"
The official of the Ministry of War said excitedly: "Your Majesty, two days ago, Jieli Khan led an army of 20 to besiege Jizhou. He saw that Jizhou was in danger. Khan's podium..."
"The specific situation of the battle is unknown, but in just a moment, the Turkic command flag fell, and the morale of the Turkic people plummeted."
"General Qin led his army to pursue and kill them. The Turkic army was defeated like a mountain. After leaving thousands of corpses, they fled northward in a hurry."
"In the battle of Jizhou, our army won a complete victory!"
"Okay!"
Li Er couldn't help but let out a loud shout, his face couldn't hide his excitement.
But then, he paused and asked, "Where is the prince?"
"Return to Your Majesty, General Qin did not mention His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Understood, back off!"
Li Er waved his hand without thinking too much.
After pondering for a moment, Li Erchao shouted to the eunuch: "Xuanfang Xuanling."
Not long after, Fang Xuanling came to the Imperial Study Room: "I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
"Fang Aiqing, this is the latest battle report, take a look!"
Li Er smiled slightly, and handed the brochure to Fang Xuanling.
