"Order the troops to retreat. Don't get too entangled with the Turkic cavalry!”
When the sky was about to turn dark, Cheng Yaojin suddenly shouted.
After that, the entire Right Military Guard retreated towards the south bank of Weishui River at an extremely fast speed. When the sky was about to completely darken, the entire Right Military Guards had already retreated to the south bank.
The Turkic cavalry had also charged into the camp of the Right Guards. They were like victors flaunting their might while searching the camp.
What they did not know was that there were many fuses burning on the ground around each tent.
"Have we followed the plan?"
When Cheng Yaojin had retreated to the south bank, Li Shiming strode over in his golden armor.
"Your Majesty, everything has been carried out according to the plan. All the gunpowder fuses had been ignited. He believed that in a while, they would all explode!”
In order to allow the right guards to retreat, the gunpowder fuse was longer. As for the discovery of the Turkic cavalry…
Li Yuanba wasn't afraid of them discovering him. So what if they did? Do they know what this is?
Did they know about gunpowder? Did they know about mines? The group of people didn't know. They were probably still curious about what the gunpowder fuse was.
Li Shi Min nodded and turned to the north bank of the Wei River.
A few minutes later, an explosion suddenly sounded from the north bank.
"Boom ~"
"Boom ~"
"Boom ~"
····
Explosions continued to ring out, and the entire right guard camp was shrouded in smoke and dust. The explosions continued. To Li Shi Min and the others, it was like a punishment from the heavens.
When the explosion rang out, the several thousand Turkic cavalry that had charged into the camp of the Right Guards had yet to react. To be precise, they didn't know what it was at all.
The explosion sent countless Turkic cavalry flying, but at the same time, it also caused the Turkic cavalry to begin to feel fear. They didn't know what this thing was, but they thought it was a punishment from Tengri.
The Turkic cavalry on their horses were even more suicidal in the face of the explosion of the mines.
If you were lying on the ground, you might be able to survive, but if you were riding a horse, the flying metal and porcelain pieces would kill countless Turkic cavalry.
At the same time, countless mines exploded, killing the Turkic cavalry.
The sound of the continuous explosions entered the tent of Jie Li Khagan. Jie Li Khagan, who was drinking horse milk, almost fell when he heard the loud explosions.
"What's that sound? What happened?"
Jie Li Khagan asked in panic.
After a long time, a Turkic ran in and shouted,"Khagan, Tengri has punished us. The 8,000 cavalrymen who entered the camp of the Tang army have lost more than 5,000 men.”
"Bullshit! The Heavenly God of the Grassland, Tengri, will always protect us, now and in the future. How can they help the Han people? This is a scheme of the Han people, do you know that? This is a scheme of the Han!"
Jie Li Khagan grabbed the Turkic soldier by the collar and sternly shouted, then threw him out.
No matter what history said about Jie Li Khan, it was undeniable that he still had some brains. He knew that this matter had to be attributed to the Tang Army.
If the entire army were to spread the word that this was Tengri's punishment for them, then their faith would instantly collapse. The morale of the army was instantly lost.
Jie Li Khagan walked back and forth in his tent a few times before suddenly walking out of the tent, bringing his personal tent army, or rather, the tent army, to the Wei River.
When the Jie Li Khagan arrived at the river bank, he saw countless Turkic soldiers supporting the injured Turkic soldiers, and some of them looting the dead Turkic cavalry.
Khan Jie Li did not care about this. What he cared about was what the Tang army had used to cause such a great loss to his subordinates.
He had already lost a lot of soldiers in the attack just now, and now, he had lost more than 5,000 soldiers. In other words, he had lost 8,000 to 9,000 soldiers in this battle.
Jie Li Khagan looked around and didn't find anything special. Of course, the huge pits were the only things he could see, but he didn't see anything special about them.
Yang Zhengdao was also walking inside. After walking for a while, he took a few porcelain pieces and walked in front of Jie Li Khan,"Khagan, look at these porcelain pieces. I think the loud noise just now must have something to do with them.”
"Isn't it just a few pieces of porcelain? So what? Don't you Han people have a lot of these things?”
Jie Li Khan said impatiently.
"A few pieces of porcelain?"
Yang Zhengdao looked at the porcelain pieces all over the ground and frowned deeply.
··········
Time slowly passed. Just as Li Yuanba had expected, the Turkic cavalry believed that the Tang army was only so-so after suffering a setback on the bank of the Wei River. Perhaps Chang 'an really did not have many Tang troops.
Therefore, after capturing a lot of people to make some tools for crossing the river, they could not wait to attack the Tang army on the south bank of the Wei River.
·······
While the Turkic cavalry were making tools to cross the river and looking for a good place for the cavalry to cross, Li Yuanba had led sixty thousand cavalry to the Hetao region.
The Hetao Plain was what the later generations called it. In this era, it was called the Hetao Grassland. It was a natural pasture and a place that all nomads wanted.
