"Is the source reliable? What was the detailed battle process? How did the Turkic rear army lose?”
Li Shi Min asked.
"Your Majesty, the source of the news is a secret agent of the Hundred Cavalry Division. It's absolutely true…"
The messenger pointed out the source of the news and then described the battle of Lianyun Castle. The focus was still on the combat strength and background of the mysterious Black Knights.
"There are actually reinforcements with unknown identities helping to defend the city?”
"A hundred cavalry wiped out ten thousand Turkic soldiers? This is unbelievable!"
"What is the background of that team of Black Knights? Also, what was the identity of their leader?”
……
Li Shi Min and the other officials were all shocked and trying to guess the origins of the Black Knights.
"May I ask if Your Majesty has sent black-armored heavy cavalry to aid the front line of Lianyun Castle?”Li Jing suddenly asked.
After hearing about the battle of Lianyun Castle, he felt that Li Shimin might have secretly sent black-armored heavy cavalry to help defend the city.
"No, I haven't." Li Shimin shook his head with a bitter smile." 3,000 black-armored heavy cavalry are in Chang 'an. Moreover, even if the black-armored heavy cavalry attacked, they might not be able to do this. No matter how weak the Turkic rear army was, it would take at least five hundred black-armored soldiers to kill them all in a day!”
As soon as he said this, the civil and military officials in the Dew Palace were all shocked.
This was too exaggerated!
The black-armored heavy cavalry was already one of the best soldiers in the Great Tang.
In the battle of Hulao Pass, Li Shimin personally led 3,000 heavy cavalry in black armor and defeated Wang Shichong's 100,000-strong army. His reputation shook the world.
And Li Shiming also said that the individual combat strength of the mysterious Black Knights in the battle of Lianyun Castle was almost five times that of the black-armored heavy cavalry?!
In this way, the mysterious Black Knights of Lianyun Castle were not ordinary people!
"I heard that Luo Yi has a mysterious cavalry under him. They are called the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun. They have extraordinary combat strength and are active in the depths of the desert all year round. They are extremely mysterious…Could it be that they saved Lianyun Castle?!”Minister Zuo Pushe Pei Ji suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Li Shi Min and the officials shook their heads.
"Let's not talk about whether the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun has such combat strength. With Luo Yi's character, since he has decided to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, he will definitely not make a move!”
"The one who saved Lianyun Castle is definitely not Luo Yi!”
"Minister Pei, you don't have to have any expectations for Luo Yi!”
Li Shi Min said confidently.
Pei Ji was asking for a snub and could only shut his mouth.
Li Shi Min looked around, his gaze swept past Qin Qiong and paused.
Lianyun Castle was safe and sound. Qin Qiong's eldest son, Qin Huaifeng, should have survived!
This was great news!
At this moment, Li Shimin suddenly thought of a problem.
He had previously promised Qin Qiong that as long as Qin Huaifeng could return alive, he would betroth Princess Chang Le to him…
Now, Li Shiming suddenly felt that this promise was too easy, and it was a bit of a loss!
Forget it, let's wait until after the battle!
Whether Qin Huaifeng could successfully return to Chang 'an was still another matter!
It was still too early to talk about the engagement!
Li Shi Min suppressed his thoughts.
……
Under Li Shiming's intentional promotion, the news of Lianyun Castle's victory quickly spread throughout the Imperial Palace.
That night, in the harem of Taiji Palace.
In an elegant courtyard, candles were brightly lit.
"Your Highness, Your Highness…Lianyun Castle has been defended!”
"I heard that there was a great hero who led a very powerful cavalry to help defend the city and killed more than ten thousand Turkic soldiers!”
"The eldest son of that Duke Yi should have survived!”
"According to His Majesty's promise to the Duke of Yi Nation, I'm afraid that His Highness 'marriage has been settled…"
A palace maid who spoke very quickly was talking non-stop to a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl who was dressed in a beautiful palace dress. Her skin was as white as the moon and she had an extremely noble aura.
The beautiful girl in the palace dress had been seriously creating a painting. When she heard the palace maid's words, she loosened her grip on the brush. The brush fell with a click, and the ink scattered, instantly destroying an exquisite painting.
" I don't want to be so hasty…I'm going to settle the marriage!" the beautiful girl in the palace dress said faintly.”
She was none other than Princess Changle, the naturally beautiful Li Lizhi.
……
No matter how long the night was, there was an end to it.
When the sky turned white, Qin Huaifeng appeared on a high slope by the Jingshui River outside Jingzhou City on his date red horse.
The distance from Lianyun Castle to Jingzhou City was not far, but Qin Huaifeng had walked for a whole night, and his robe was stained with countless blood stains.
Along the way, he had encountered seven squads of Turkic soldiers.
Because Qin Huaifeng's robes were in the style of the Great Tang border guards, almost all the Turkic soldiers 'first reaction upon seeing him was to shoot.
Thus, Qin Huaifeng naturally sent the Turkic soldiers he had seen to the west.
At this moment, Qin Huaifeng looked into the distance.
On the road in the distance, a group of twenty Turkic soldiers was chasing a group of captives.
To the Turks, who lacked everything, the robust citizens of the Great Tang were extremely valuable slaves.
After plundering the goods, they would also plunder large numbers of people to bring back to the Turks as labor.
Qin Huaifeng had already encountered at least three groups of Turkic soldiers doing the same thing.
The Tang captives were all tied up and walking in a line.
Those who walked slower would be whipped by the Turks.
Further away was Jingzhou City, whose city gates were tightly shut.
On the high city walls of Jingzhou City, the orderly Heavenly Festival Army was coldly watching everything that was happening on the official road.
There was no anger in their eyes, nor was there a common enemy. There was only coldness.
It was as if the Turkic soldiers on the road were driving cattle, sheep, and horses, not living people.
They weren't their compatriots either…
