Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Zhang Zhongjian brandished his long saber and charged down the slope toward the center of the Turkic army. Any Turkic who stood in his way became ghosts under his blade.
Compared to Zhang Zhongjian, Yin Shisan was calmer. He said that he would capture the leader first, but he wasn't in a hurry at all. Instead, he slowly rode down the slope, his eyes fixed on the Jie Li Khagan. Only when the Turks approached would he kill them with his halberd.
Jie Li hid in the Turkic army, and there were always a dozen cavalry protecting him, preventing the Tang army from charging over.
As soon as Yin Shisan and Zhang Zhongjian appeared, Jie Li immediately looked at them.
At first, Zhang Zhongjian's formidable martial strength had stunned him, but Jie Li quickly recognized that Zhang Zhongjian was the one who had killed the Dingyang Army and the Turkic army in the Gourd Cave a few days ago.
Following that, Yin Shisan, who was calmly following behind with his iron halberd, also entered Jie Li's eyes.
What Jie Li didn't expect was that when his eyes met Yin Shisan's, Yin Shisan was actually smiling at him. He was laughing so brazenly.
"He recognized me!"
Jie Li's heart thumped and he quickly turned his horse around, hiding behind the Turkic army.
It wasn't that he was afraid of death, but that he understood that his value to the Turks was simply too great. If he died, the Turks would have no chance to rise again for the next hundred years.
"Hahaha…"
But at this moment, Yin Shisan's hearty laughter reached Jie Li's ears. Then, Yin Shisan said loudly," Jie Li Khagan, do you think that no one will see through you just because you hid in the Turkic army and tried to spy on our Central Plains?”
Swoosh!
Hearing Yin Shisan's words, Jie Li did not try to escape. Instead, he turned his horse back and looked at him with a serious expression.
" Good!" Yin Shisan shouted when he saw this." You're indeed a formidable hero of your generation." Unfortunately, the hinterland of the Central Plains isn't a place where you can come and go as you please!”
"Giddyup!"
While Yin Shisan and Jie Li Khan were talking, Zhang Zhongjian had already arrived.
He originally didn't know which one was Jie Li, but now, Jie Li was completely exposed in front of him.
"Stop him!"
The dozen people guarding Jie Li were shocked. They had just seen how powerful Zhang Zhongjian was and knew that they were not his match. Now, this flood dragon was actually charging towards its leader. It wanted to stop him even if it had to die.
"Humph!"
Zhang Zhongjian coldly snorted, fearless in the face of the Turkic army closing in on him from all directions. He swung his saber even faster, and wherever the blade passed, blood splattered in the air. Countless Turkic heads flew up like rubber balls and fell heavily to the ground.
"Leave no one alive! Kill them all!"
Yin Shisan's fighting spirit was aroused by Zhang Zhongjian. He swung the iron halberd in his hand forward and led the Tang army forward, wiping out all the Turks.
The Turkic army had nearly five thousand men, but two or three hundred of them had been killed by the bamboo spikes and iron skewers in the pit. They were also blocked by the Iron Caltrop Formation, and nearly a hundred of them fell off their horses and died. A rain of arrows killed five to six hundred Tang soldiers. In total, there were already 1,000 of them.
The remaining 4,000 didn't sleep well because of Xie Yingdeng's harassment last night. They were exhausted, and at least half of them didn't have any combat strength. Therefore, the Tang army had already destroyed more than 1,000 of them.
This left the Turkic army with only two thousand men.
When Zhang Zhongjian rushed down from the slope and swept through the Turkic camp like a dragon, it was as if he had entered an uninhabited land. Another thousand of the two thousand Turks had gone, leaving only a thousand or so.
At this time, the Tang army had lost less than 500 men, so the strength of both sides was miraculously equal.
At this moment, almost all of the Turkic soldiers were surrounding Zhang Zhongjian to prevent him from getting close to Jie Li Khan.
However, this gave Yin Shisan and the Tang army an opportunity. They would use Zhang Zhongjian to draw the attention of the Turks and attack from the outside, quickly forcing the Turks into a passive position.
"Khagan, run!"
The people who were protecting Jie Li saw that the Tang army was powerful and hurriedly protected Jie Li on the road.
Yin Shisan laughed coldly." Now you're thinking of relying on the Dingyang Army to protect yourself?”
"Giddyup!"
As soon as Yin Shisan finished speaking, Zhang Zhongjian had already rushed out of the encirclement and caught up with Jie Li in the blink of an eye.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
He waved the long knife in his hand and killed the three people behind Jie Li. Then, he jumped up and stepped on the horse's back. He landed behind Jie Li like a roc spreading its wings.
Jie Li only felt the sound of wind behind his head, and then his back had been hit hard. He was kicked to the ground by Zhang Zhongjian.
Bang!
Zhang Zhongjian landed on Jie Li's horse and waved the long knife in his hand to the left and right. Wherever the blade passed, the rest of the people responsible for protecting Jie Li were also hacked to death.
At this moment, Yin Shisan had already rushed over with dozens of cavalry. As for the remaining Turkic soldiers, they were being massacred by the Tang army.
"Let them go!"
Jie Li stood up from the ground and faced Zhang Zhongjian's blade as he spoke to Yin Shisan.
"I surrender!"
"Humph!" " Hmph!" Yin Shisan snorted coldly as he rode forward." Seven years ago, in the battle of Yanmen Pass, you Turks killed 130,000 of my men, old and young. They were all powerless and had already surrendered!”
"You…"
Before Jie Li could speak, he was interrupted by Yin Shisan.
"Five years ago, one hundred and twenty shepherds were captured by the Turks outside Bingzhou. They were willing to exchange five thousand sheep for their lives, but what was the result?" Yin Shisan continued.”
Jie Li's expression was cold and he didn't speak anymore.
"And three years ago in the northwest of Taiyuan, a year ago in Hetao, eight months ago in…" Yin Shisan said coldly.
Yin Shisan's face was ashen. As he spoke, he glared at Jie Li. His sharp gaze seemed to want to pierce through him.
Swoosh!
Jie Li knew that he couldn't save the soldiers under his command, so he tilted his head." If you want to kill, then kill. Since ancient times, the winner is king and the loser is a bandit. What's there to say?"”
Yin Shisan sneered." You're right!”
Whoosh!
He thrust his iron halberd forward, and the tip of the halberd pierced through Jie Li's right ear.
buzz ~
Following that, Yin Shisan shook the shaft of the halberd. Jie Li's entire right ear was crushed, and blood mixed with it fell to the ground.
Jie Li was worthy of being called a hero of his generation. He didn't even cry out in pain after being treated like this by Yin Shisan. He just gritted his teeth and glared at Yin Shisan. His eyes were about to spew fire.
"A warrior can be killed, but not humiliated!" Jie Li spat out these six words.
Yin Shisan took back his iron halberd and said to Jie Li," Since ancient times, scholars have only appeared in the Central Plains. You are just a small barbarian chieftain. What right do you have to call yourself a scholar?!"”
"You!"
Jie Li was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
At this time, all the Turks had been killed by the Tang army. The ground behind Yin Shisan and Zhang Zhongjian was covered in red.
