Xue Yantuo's nominal head was Zhen Zhu Khan.
He occupied half of the 300,000 cavalrymen, 150,000 people.
The attack on Bingzhou this time was Zhen Zhu Khan's idea.
It was not just the grudge from last time, but the more pressing matter was the robbery of property and people.
Winter was coming, and it would be a problem to survive the winter.
Bingzhou City had everything, including food, clothing, and necessities.
In the eyes of the wolves of the grassland, Bing Province and even the entire Great Tang Empire were their fat sheep.
They could only look at the entire Great Tang Empire and did not dare to think too much about it.
They coveted Bing Province every day.
What's the big deal about snatching it and leaving!
What allies?
Bah!
Benefits were the key.
As long as they took down Bingzhou, it would be enough for them to survive for two to three years.
They had common interests, so they could gather together.
When it came to how to distribute these huge benefits, they would immediately clash with each other.
At this moment, these grassland wolves were only a day away from Bingzhou.
As long as they charged together, Bingzhou City would fall in a matter of seconds.
More than ten tribes quarreled for an entire night.
When he was exhausted, he finally came up with a preliminary plan to split the loot.
Just as the meeting was about to end, an emergency occurred and Xue Yantuo's internal department exploded.
According to the urgent report of the scouts, a large Tang army was heading toward Xue Yantuo's rear.
In the rear, Xue Yantuo did not have much strength.
The army was spread out over a wide area, and it would take at least ten days to half a month to reach them.
If the other armies arrived at Xue Yantuo's rear…
The old, young, women, and children would all be slaughtered by the Great Tang.
"How many Tang soldiers might have come?"
Zhen killed Khan and asked him which way to scout.
"Great Khan, there might be hundreds of thousands of people, and the momentum is very big."
"The dust from the horse's hooves covered the sky, making it difficult to see clearly.”
Boom!
Zhen Zhu was stunned.
He hurriedly turned around and discussed with the other leaders to split up and intercept them.
……
Xue Rengui led the fifty thousand wolf cavalry to take a detour and appeared behind Xue Yantuo's cavalry.
According to Li Xiao's brocade bag, they dragged a branch behind the horse's tail.
The flags were fluttering and the drums were loud, making a huge commotion.
According to Li Xiao's tactical plan, Xue Rengui took a detour to the border.
Along the way, they encountered Xue Yantuo's fallen soldiers and some of Xue Yantuo's small tribes.
The soldier asked Xue Rengui how to deal with it.
Xue Rengui made a beheading gesture.
"Xue Yantuo is a traitor and is not worthy of being a human!”
The soldiers did not want any prisoners, so they started a massacre…
On Li Xiao's brocade pouch, there were drawings of the possible routes of Xue Yantuo's cavalry.
Xue Rengui was looking for Xue Yantuo's logistics base.
Cutting off the enemy's supply routes was the key to defeating Xue Yantuo's superior forces.
If Xue Yantuo's people had no food, how long could they keep besieging the city?
——
The next day.
When Li Xiao woke up, he opened the system.
They found that Xue Yantuo's cavalry had split into two, and half of them had begun to retreat.
Just as Li Xiao had expected, the cavalry that had returned to fight the so-called main force of the Great Tang had reached one hundred thousand, half of the army.
These 100,000 people had already left Xue Rengui's 10,000 wolf cavalry.
And the number of Xue Yantuo's cavalry that was preparing to attack Bingzhou City was reduced by half.
The pressure on Bingzhou City's defenses suddenly decreased, and Li Xiao began to develop countermeasures based on the actual situation.
Wang Bo walked in quickly and bowed."
"Your Highness! The city gate reported that Xue Yantuo's cavalry had arrived outside the city.”
"Xue Yantuo's cavalrymen number in the tens of thousands.”
"Your Highness has prepared for a rainy day and made such preparations. I believe that the people in the city will unite as one to fight against the enemy.”
Hearing this, Li Xiao nodded slightly. Everything was within his expectations.
100,000 Hu Cavalry wanting to take down Bingzhou City was a fool's dream.
With Wang Bo's propaganda, the people in the city were united against a common enemy.
From ninety-nine to just leaving, they all swore to kill the Hu and raise the prestige of the Great Tang.
Barns of food were placed on the street.
With food in the city, there was no panic. When the commoners saw that the streets were filled with food, naturally, no one would be anxious about the city being breached.
Wang Bo couldn't help but praise Li Xiao. The might of the Sacred is beyond the past and present!"
An hour later, Li Xiao received the news from Wang Bo.
Xue Yantuo's cavalry had attacked seven times in two hours, and all of them had been killed.
The first killing weapon of the soldiers guarding the city was to pour hot oil and add torches.
Not to mention the scaling ladder, even the corpses of Xue Yantuo's soldiers could not be identified.
Although Xue Yantuo's archers were able to shoot through a tree within a hundred steps, under the ten zhang tall city wall, they were still able to shoot through a tree.
Their bows and arrows were useless against the defenders of the city.
They didn't even know about the catapults.
The second killing weapon was the giant rock.
With ample preparation, the huge rock was moved to the city.
The soldiers pushed the huge rocks down and smashed them directly on the heads of Xue Yantuo's cavalrymen.
Xue Yantuo's soldiers were crushed along with their ladders, their internal organs scattered all over the ground.
It was unusually bloody…
Within an hour, thousands of Xue Yantuo's cavalrymen were beaten to a pulp.
Corpses were strewn all over the city!
