"The two hundred enemy troops surrounding General Zhishi Sili were the Black Knights from the Battle of Lianyun Castle?”
Jie Li Khagan heard the discussions of the generals and was a little frightened, he quickly asked in a deep voice.
" Reporting to the Great Khan, the enemy who attacked White Stone Beach was a team of cavalry archers, not the Black Knights of Lianyun Castle…" the messenger replied honestly.
"It's good that you're not, it's good that you're not…"
Jie Li Khagan and the Turkic generals had just breathed a sigh of relief when the messenger continued,"However, the white-robed cavalrymen were extremely fast in their surprise attack. They appeared and disappeared like ghosts, and their combat strength was not inferior to the Black Knights who defeated the rear army in the battle of Lianyun Castle!”
" What?!"
Everyone was stunned.
The white-robed cavalry archers were not weaker than the mysterious Black Knights?
It was no wonder that they were able to hold off Zhishi Sili's army of thirty thousand!
The Great Tang actually had two of such terrifying armies?!
If they included Li Shiming's 3,000 black-armored cavalry, they would have three peerless armies!
Even if the black-armored heavy cavalry's combat strength was not comparable to the mysterious black cavalry and the white-robed cavalry archers, they had more people!
How was he going to fight this war?
Jie Li Khan started to panic!
"Great Khan, should we send reinforcements to capture General Sili?”Suddenly, a general asked.
"Help my ass!" Khan Jie Li cursed casually, and then said with a dark face," Mo Province is more than a hundred miles away from Yilu City's White Stone Beach. When the news reached here, the battle was basically over! What was the use of sending troops over now? Moreover, Ashina Simo had twenty thousand soldiers outside Zhezhe City, so he would definitely go help Zhishi Sili. It's fine as long as we stick to it! This was to prevent the Tang army from finding an opportunity to counterattack!”
"Then…Great Khan, aren't we going straight to Chang 'an today?”The general suddenly asked.
Jie Li Khan glared at him." If you dare to ask another question, I'll chop you up!”
Before the situation was clear, not to mention attacking Chang 'an, Jie Li Khan did not dare to leave the camp of Mo Zhou City.
……
On the other side, Zhangsun Wuji and Li Jing, who were marching toward Muzhou, quickly received first-hand intelligence from the front lines. They learned that Zhishi Sili's thirty thousand men had been attacked at Yilu City's White Stone Beach.
Zhangsun Wuji and Li Jing had different personalities, so their attitudes towards this news were naturally different.
"Two hundred men to surround an army of thirty thousand Turks at White Stone Beach? This news was not credible! If I had 30,000 troops and ordered my subordinates to break out in all directions, wouldn't I be able to easily crush the other party? This might be a trap set by the enemy. We'll investigate it carefully!”Zhangsun Wuji, who was naturally suspicious, threw the information aside.
On Li Jing's side, after confirming that the source of the information was credible, he immediately sent a team of 500 vanguard scouts to White Stone Beach to look for an opportunity to fight. At the same time, he also sent a message to the general manager of Mo Prefecture, the commander of the Tianji Army, Zhang Jin, asking him to mobilize his troops and prepare to attack at any time.
The Tianji Army in Muzhou City had a total of 40,000 soldiers. Although they were not as strong as the Tianjie Army, they were still an important force.
Unfortunately, the commander of the Tianji Army, Zhang Jin, was a mediocre person. Although he had no intention of betraying the Tang Empire, he did not dare to fight and allowed the two hundred thousand Turkic soldiers to plunder the Tang Empire's northwest.
……
Muzhou City, the barracks of the commander of the Tianji Army.
Zhang Jin, who was covered in fat, listened to the secret letter for help sent by Li Jing. He frowned and asked the messenger," You actually want me to cooperate in the battle? How many troops does Apothecary Li have now?”
" Chief Steward Li is now leading an army of 20,000..." the messenger replied respectfully.
"20,000 troops are nothing!" "Do you know how many Turks are outside the city?" A total of 150,000 soldiers! Is Medicine Master Li trying to trick me into sending me to my death?"
"General Zhang, of the 150,000 soldiers outside the city, 30,000 have already been taken away by Zhishi Sili. Steward Li's intention was to ask General Zhang to send troops to assist in attacking the thirty thousand men trapped by Zhishi Sili on White Stone Beach.”The messenger explained in a low voice, afraid of angering this high-ranking commander of the Heaven Order Army.
"No matter what you say, my Heavenly Order Army will never hit a rock with an egg! Don't even think about it!" Zhang Jin said righteously," Men, take this messenger away and treat him well.”
Not long after, Li Jing received the news that Zhang Jin did not dare to attack. Although he was depressed, there was nothing he could do.
……
Yuchi Gong, who had set up camp outside Jingyang City and was facing off against the Turkic vanguard led by Tuli Khagan, had also received the battle report.
"Two hundred white-robed soldiers can seal off thirty thousand Turkic soldiers?”
"This is too terrifying! It would be great if this troop was my subordinates!”
"Then how convenient would it be to fight a war!"
"First, they killed Hu Jun, and now, a white-robed soldier has appeared!”
"It seems that the heavens are on the side of the Tang army!”
Yuchi Gong grinned and suddenly said to the deputy generals and advisors in a deep voice," Everyone, it's time for a tough battle. His Majesty needs a victory to boost the morale of the army. Let's choose this Tuli Khan and try our luck!”
With that, Yuchi Gong immediately ordered his men to put on their armor and armor as they pressed on the Turkic camp outside Jingyang City!
