Not Leaving A Single One Behind
Ten miles away, in a village.
The originally peaceful village was now a hellish scene of corpses and cries.
The Turkic cavalry galloped through the village, brandishing their sabers as they killed one villager after another.
There were also Turkic soldiers who set fire to the villages, killing people, raping and pillaging, not even sparing children, killing anyone they saw.
After a round of looting, the Turkic soldiers left with their spoils of war.
Not long after they left, Feng Li arrived with his men.
Seeing the miserable scene in the village, Feng Li was so angry that his eyes turned red. He said with great anger,"Damn it! Chase after him!"
"Today, even if we have to chase them to the ends of the earth, we have to kill these Turkic dogs. Otherwise, we will be unworthy of the name 'Han'!”
It wasn't just Feng Li. The many soldiers of the White Robe Army were also furious when they saw this scene.
After Feng Li gave the order, the 3,000 white-robed soldiers threw down their heavy loads and only carried a horizontal saber. They rode their horses and galloped wildly, sweeping up the yellow sand that filled the sky!
The Turkic cavalry were still leisurely advancing with their spoils of war, but when they heard the commotion behind them, they were startled.
"Not good! The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty is coming! Run!”
When the leading general saw the astonishing momentum of the white-robed army, he immediately panicked and hurriedly ordered a retreat.
However, each of them basically carried the spoils of war that they had snatched. They could not run at all for a moment!
When they decided to abandon their spoils of war and flee, the three thousand white-robed soldiers had already arrived!
Feng Li pulled out the saber at his waist and roared with a ferocious expression,""Kill them!"
"Leave no one alive!"
In the blink of an eye, the two armies had already begun to fight.
Feng Li took the lead and charged into the ranks of the Turkic cavalry, instantly cutting down five or six Turkic soldiers.
One side was charging forward while the other was unprepared. Moreover, the white-robed army had the absolute advantage in numbers, so the Turkic cavalry was at a complete disadvantage!
Each of the white-robed soldiers was filled with rage and boundless killing intent toward the Turkic cavalry, and their attacks were ruthless and merciless!
This was the first time the Turkic cavalry had encountered such a powerful opponent. They had no time to organize a resistance before they were mercilessly slaughtered by the white-robed army!
Now, they also experienced the despair of the villagers being slaughtered.
The 3,000 white-robed soldiers were like merciless killing machines. They scattered them in an orderly manner and then killed them separately!
The battle cries shook the sky, and blood dyed the yellow sand.
"Psst!"
Feng Li pulled his blade out of the Turkic cavalry leader's stomach and cut off his head.
There was not a single Turkic cavalry left on the battlefield, only the blood-stained white-robed soldier Xiao Sha.
In less than the time it takes an incense stick to burn, the one thousand Turkic cavalry had all been killed by the white-robed soldiers, not a single one left!
"Cut off their heads and bring them back to pay homage to the dead villagers!”
Feng Li raised his hand to wipe the blood on his face that was mixed with dust and ordered coldly.
The white-robed soldiers all beheaded the Turkic cavalry and attached their heads to their waists before mounting their horses and leaving.
……
By the time Feng Li returned to the village with his army, Lee Chengdao had already led the rest of the army to the village to search for survivors.
"Your Highness, I have not failed my mission. The Turkic bandits have all been annihilated!”
Feng Li offered the head of the Turkic cavalryman with both hands as he knelt and respectfully said.
Li Chengdao coldly glanced at the head and waved his hand to signal Feng Li to stand up.
After a search, the army found more than 60 survivors in the village. Most of them were injured, and most of them were children and elderly.
It was likely that the young man had already been killed in order to resist.
"Thank you, general, for avenging the hundred villagers of Green Bull Village!”
Under the lead of an old man, dozens of villagers knelt down and paid their respects to Li Chengdao. Their cries shook the sky.
"Please get up!"
Li Chengdao stepped forward and helped the old man up. Then, he said with an ugly expression,"This is Youzhou. How can Turkic cavalry be so rampant? Where did the troops guarding the border go?"
"General, you don't know this," the old man said with tears in his eyes."The Turkic cavalry comes and goes quickly. By the time the Youzhou garrison arrives, they'll have already fled."”
"In recent years, villages have often been robbed or even slaughtered. Even if we report it to the garrison for help, there is no change.”
"May I ask your name, general? Which army are your elite soldiers from? This old man's entire village will set up a General Tree Longevity Temple and worship it forever!”
"What a bunch of trash!"
After hearing the old man's words, Li Chengdao's impression of the Youzhou garrison became even worse. He couldn't help but curse inwardly.
Then he raised his head and said,"I am Li Chengdao, the Great Sun. I have been ordered to lead troops to Youzhou's border to wipe out the Turks!"”
"So it's His Highness Taisun!"
The old man was shocked and quickly bowed.
Li Chengdao reached out to support him and said gently,"There's no need to be so polite. Follow my army to Youzhou City. I'll arrange for you to stay there.”
The village had almost been burned down, and the only people left were the old and weak. Leaving them here was no different from waiting for death.
" Thank you, Your Highness, thank you, Your Highness…"
The old man thanked him repeatedly, his tone filled with gratitude.
After that, Li Chengdao started to arrange the army to take the villagers to Youzhou City.
He didn't care at all that he dirtied his robes while helping the villagers move things. In the end, he even pulled Zhangsun Wugou and the others out of the carriage, completely disregarding their feelings and giving the carriage to the children and the injured.
"This Li Chengdao is actually so considerate of the people!”
Li Lizhi rode on her horse and looked at Li Chengdao in surprise.
Zhangsun Wugou and Concubine Yang looked at Li Chengdao's back thoughtfully.
