She had sneezed a few times after waking up early in the morning. Zhangsun Youxiang rubbed her nose. She didn't seem to have caught a cold. Why was she sneezing for no reason? Could it be that someone was nagging about her?
Zhangsun Youxiang, who had been following Zhang Heng around, did not expect the Turks to have decided to fight her to the death.
"You're awake. Eat something!"
Zhang Heng took the rations brought by the soldiers and handed them to Zhangsun Youxiang. This girl had been feeling depressed all this while. Could she be angry because she lost?
However, he didn't have time to give her any psychological guidance. According to his estimates, those Turks had probably reached the croton eating area. They had rested for a night and had eaten and drunk their fill, yet they were still lying in ambush here. If they still couldn't defeat those Turks, it would be a joke.
"What should we do today?" Zhangsun Youxiang asked curiously after taking two bites. Seeing that Zhang Heng was having a hard time eating the pancake, she handed him her water bottle.
Zhang Heng took the water bottle from Zhangsun Youxiang and took two big gulps. The biscuits brought by the army were so hard that they stuffed his throat. If it weren't for the fact that there were so many people here, he would have exchanged for food from his own system.
Thinking of Zhangsun Youxiang's question and the curious gazes of the surrounding people, he smiled and said,"Naturally to ambush the Turks. Right, don't touch the horses when we kill them later. Try to protect them. We've lost quite a few horses this time, and if we don't get some back, it'll be a mistake!”
"Yes, sir!"
Those who had been subdued by Zhang Heng nodded in agreement, their eyes glinting as they looked at the Turks who had yet to arrive. In the past, they would have doubted Zhang Heng's guess and wondered if the Turks would fall for his trick. But after what happened last night, no one doubted him at all.
Time passed slowly. Just as everyone was yawning, they suddenly heard someone talking. Everyone quickly got up. Zhang Heng pushed aside the thick weeds in front of him and nodded in satisfaction. Those people were indeed here.
All of them were leading their horses, their faces filled with fatigue. Even the Turkic general in front didn't look very energetic. These people had stayed up all night and had walked for so long in the morning to kill them. They had neither eaten nor drunk, so it was time for a sneak attack.
"Young Master, let's go now!"
Old Gao excitedly looked at these people. Although he had defeated the Turks in the past, he had never seen them in such a sorry state. He should have rushed up and slaughtered them at this moment.
Zhang Heng shook his head and whispered into Zhangsun Youxiang's ear for a while. Zhangsun Youxiang poked his forehead. This guy was too smart. Even she didn't think of it.
However, this method was indeed not bad. Thinking about how they had beaten the Turks to a pulp, Zhangsun Youxiang couldn't help but smirk.
"Stop laughing. It's so scary!"
“……”
Zhangsun Youxiang, who had been defeated by Zhang Heng, pouted and led a team of people to the back. Zhang Heng watched them leave, then pointed at the Turks in the distance and said to his men,"Our team's goal is not the Turks, but their horses. We'll go up and kill them until they run away, then we'll take their horses.”
"Then wouldn't the Turks have escaped?"
Old Gao said, conflicted. Although she wanted the horses, she wanted the lives of the Turks more. But Zhang Heng didn't let them kill them all, and he was just scaring them. Wasn't this a little too…merciful?
"Silly, where did your general go? We have fewer people, so we're going to rob the horses. You'd better follow my plan. If there's a problem, Conservation will die to apologize. However, if you disobey my orders and cause a large number of your sisters to die, Conservation will go to your house to see your relatives!”
Although they knew that Zhang Heng wouldn't do such a thing under normal circumstances, they still remembered his initial threat and shuddered. Indeed, they had thought of disobeying Zhang Heng's orders in the beginning.
After all, although they admired Zhang Heng, their leader was Zhangsun Youxiang. Now that Zhangsun Youxiang was not around, Zhang Heng's orders were not in line with their wishes. Naturally, they wanted to make their own decision and kill him immediately. That way, Zhang Heng would have no choice but to kill everyone.
But now that Zhang Heng had said that, everyone thought of his imposing manner. This Zhang gongzi was not a gentleman like Zhangsun Youxiang. He was really capable of doing anything.
The thought of it sent chills down her spine. She couldn't help but express her determination to carry out Zhang Heng's orders and be a good daughter with rules and discipline under his leadership.
"Remember your promise. If any one of you doesn't keep your word, hmph hmph, I will do anything.”
Zhang Heng waved his hand, and the group of people stared at the Turks who were approaching from a short distance away with sinister eyes. From time to time, they would look angry, as if they were asking why these people were walking so slowly.
"General, should we continue chasing?”
A Turkic soldier asked in a low voice. Their men and horses were exhausted, and this was not the time to pursue. Even if they reached the Tang camp, they would not be able to teach those damned Tang a lesson. This was not a wise move.
Shocked by his soldiers 'words, the Turkic general looked behind him and discovered that all of his soldiers were listless. If they were to fight, they would be sending themselves to their deaths.
"How about this? Pass down the order. We'll rest here until…"
"Dog Turk, you've been tricked. Kill, kill them all!”
Before the Turkic general could finish his words, a man's voice rang out, his tone filled with schadenfreude. His heart tightened. Had he really been fooled?
A loud shout of killing rang out from the side, throwing the entire Turkic army into disarray. They kept shouting that they had been ambushed, and each of them ran faster than the last. Their warhorses had been suffering from diarrhea all night and couldn't gallop as fast as they could, so they had all been thrown off.
The Turkic general at the front of the army kept shouting. This was a conspiracy! Everyone, hurry back! There weren't many of them, so why were they running? Come back and kill them!
However, no matter how hard she shouted, it was useless. The soldiers behind her ran even faster, as if something was chasing them.
Zhang Heng curled his lips and looked at the fleeing Turks, then at the few remaining Turkic soldiers who were fighting with them. He wanted to laugh. Why were these guys so spineless?
He wasn't the only one who was speechless. Zhangsun Youxiang's soldiers were also quite speechless. To be honest, as long as those people turned around and looked carefully, they would know that there really weren't many people ambushing them. Why were these people running?
She couldn't help but look at Zhang Heng, hoping that he could give her an explanation. Zhang Heng immediately put on an unfathomable expression, as if everything was under his control.
The soldiers behind him were filled with admiration. Such a person had actually been taken into their general's tent. It was simply too amazing. They had not missed anything!
