Chang 'an had a total of 80,000 troops.
Baiqi said he only needed 40,000.
He would lead the 40,000 troops to ambush them on the northern mountain.
Previously, Li Yuanjing had asked Baiqi with a smile,"Can you kill two hundred thousand Turkic cavalry with just forty thousand?”
Baiqi only said,"The quality of the soldiers is not in numbers. If there are too many people, it will be chaotic and difficult to deploy."”
Li Yuanjing nodded in agreement. In ancient times, it was difficult to issue military orders without a loudspeaker, so it was easy to panic when there were too many people.
Soon after.
After Li Yuanjing entered the military camp, he looked at the forty thousand infantry soldiers who were neatly arranged and had cold saber lights. A smile appeared on his face. They were equipped with ten thousand Mo Sabers and thirty thousand Divine Arm Crossbows.
Under Cao Zhengchun's protection, Li Yuanjing rode his horse up to the platform. The soldiers looked at Li Yuanjing with excitement.
Several high-ranking generals dismounted to show their respect when they saw Li Yuanjing.
Li Yuanjing's reputation had long reached its peak in Chang 'an Fortress.
Baiqi and the others looked up at Li Yuanjing with respect.
Li Yuanjing stood on the high platform and shouted loudly.
"Are you afraid of two hundred thousand Turkic dogs?”
"I'm not afraid!"
"I'm not afraid!"
"I'm not afraid!"
The 40,000 people below shouted in unison. This sound shook the world.
"Ten strings of money for a Turkic dog!" Li Yuanjing shouted again.”
Boom!
Immediately, the crowd exploded with fighting spirit, and their morale reached an unprecedented height.
Ten strings of money!
After this battle, he could go home to buy land and marry a wife!
Everyone's eyes were red with envy. They were mortal enemies of the Turks, and now that they had a reward for killing them, they were all filled with energy.
"I'll wait for your triumphant return in Chang 'an!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Long live Your Majesty!"
"Long live Your Majesty!"
An hour later, Li Yuanjing finished his parade and left the camp to return to Taiji Palace, leaving everything to Baiqi.
Baiqi and his generals waited for the night to come. He led 40,000 men, carrying Mo sabers, crossbows, and ten days of rations, and headed straight for the northern mountain beside Jingyang City.
there will be
The burial ground of the Turks.
......
That night, Hou Junji personally led the cavalry into fifty small groups of a hundred men.
They circled around the main Turkic forces and began to harass the Turkic heartland, the northern steppe.
They only had one goal, to create chaos behind the enemy lines.
The Turkic main force had led two hundred thousand men south, and the grasslands behind them were filled with the old, weak, sick, and disabled.
It wouldn't be long before these fifty teams would stab into their backs like sharp blades.
They were badly battered!
As for Jie Li Khan and Tuli Khan, they would naturally be troubled over whether they should advance or retreat.
Should they split up to chase them away or attack Chang 'an together?
......
That night, Baiqi led 40,000 troops out of Chang 'an and headed towards the ambush site, the northern mountain beside Jingyang City.
......
On the second day, at the bank of the Wei River.
Pledging assembly!
Li Yuanjing was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe as he stood on the platform. All the civil and military officials were waiting below. They looked at each other in dismay. Why did the emperor only bring so few people with him?
There were only 1,000 Divine Martial Army soldiers under the platform.
The 1,000 soldiers of the Divine Martial Army were 800 men of sacrifice.
After Li Yuanjing ascended the throne, 800 men of sacrifice were granted the title of Divine Martial Army.
Li Yuanjing was still waiting, waiting for more people to gather around him. He was afraid that no one would come to watch.
One had to know.
The emperor's personal expedition shook Chang 'an. Li Yuanjing had ordered the imperial court yesterday to put up notices of the emperor's personal expedition in the streets and alleys of Chang' an.
no one does not know
Unless he was not human!
Logically speaking, the news of the emperor's personal expedition should have been kept a secret, fearing that Turkic spies would learn that Jingyang City had reinforcements.
However, Li Yuanjing naturally had a plan.
He had gone to Jingyang City to act as bait, so he naturally had to make a big fuss, fearing that the Turkic spies would not know.
Only then could the Turkic Khagan be moved.
The ruler of a country!
There was nothing more effective than capturing the Emperor to strike the morale of Chang 'an and even the Tang Empire.
At noon.
The people in the distance were already overcrowded. It could be said that the good and the bad were mixed together. All the people of all walks of life had come to watch the show.
"Why hasn't the little Emperor left yet?"
"Your Majesty! But you have to conserve your strength."
"Don't you know how to pick a good time?”
"The king guards the country gate. Our Great Tang is thriving!"
At this moment, Li Yuanjing was loudly berating the crimes of the Turks on the platform. He had a proud and complacent appearance, not afraid of anything. He even boasted that one thousand soldiers of the Divine Martial Army had killed two hundred thousand cavalry.
Zhou Wei's people were puzzled. Was this their wise and mighty Emperor?
Too arrogant!
There was a suspicious person in the crowd. He was dressed as a Han, but he had the appearance of a Hu.
At this moment, he was observing the little Emperor in the distance.
He kept recording all kinds of information:
The little Emperor wore a dragon robe and went to war!
The little Emperor was arrogant and condescending, so there was nothing to worry about.
The little Emperor personally led the army, accompanied by a thousand imperial guards, bows, crossbows, and Mo knives. They arrived at Jingyang City a day later.
Chang 'an up and down the military and political unity, food, logistics enough, do not attack the city.
......
Many Turkic spies began to report back with smiles on their faces.
He had been hiding in Chang 'an for many years just for this day.
A wondrous skill!
Then, he quickly sent the letter to the north and attacked the Khan's tent.
