"Protector"

When he slammed the horse and stood quietly in Huyan Valley, which was only about a hundred feet away from him, the huge body of Yinshan blocked everything and calmed everything. When the strong wind met Yinshan, it seemed to become gentle, and the originally screaming sound became a whistle with a whirlpool.

Yinshan Mountain is thousands of miles from east to west and has many valley entrances, but there are only three places that can pass through the large group of people, which are near Hohhot, Baotou and Bayannur in later generations. Now this place is the middle place, called Yangdao, and Yangu.

Since it is a great road, it is naturally a place where military strategists must fight for. For thousands of years, there have been many wars in Huyan Valley. The whistling north wind seems to be telling the past.

At this time, because the Tongluo rebels went north, the remnants of the Turkic tribes such as Tongluo were echoing the south of Yinshan, and a large number of Dangxiang tribes took advantage of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty to plunder everywhere, and the Tubo people took great strides to erode the territory of Hexi, so a mere Shuofang army naturally could not take care of it.

He, Sun Xiurong, would not suddenly face a large group of people coming from the other end of the valley road.

Along the way, he was still thinking about how to deal with the current situation.

After standing quietly on the Kundulun River north of Yinshan for about half an hour, his tight cheeks finally relaxed. He turned his horse's head and shook his whip, heading north without looking back.

He already had a preliminary plan in his mind.

"Since the ultimate goal is very grand, we naturally have to face the pressure of the Uighurs and the Khitans. Instead of being able to get along with each other, it is better to make a decision in one battle!"

After making up his mind, the depressed heart was finally fully released. "Go!", and he added another whip...

At this time, they were only two or three miles away from Huyan Valley, and the huge back of Yinshan still enveloped them.

"Protector"

The voice of Steyranmann, who was broken, rang out.

Sun Xiurong stopped the war horse again with some displeasure. As he stopped, the people who had just swept the sand and dust and rolled in front of him suddenly stopped.

But the sound of horse hooves still did not stop.

"Someone came from Huyan Valley?"

After a while, as the strong wind gradually blew away the dust they had rolled up, a group of people emerged from a distance!

Sun Xiaoke felt a little nervous. He looked at Stay Ranmian, and Jia Dan said, "You two escort Dadu back, I'll take some people to meet them for a while..."

In this situation, Sun Xiurong naturally would not show off his power. He nodded and took Jia Dan and Steyranmian to continue to run northward. It was only fifty miles from the camp of the Thunder Ye Army to Huyan Valley. Not long after, he would see the scout cavalry he arranged. With the scout cavalry, he could quickly go back and call on guards to go south.

After about ten miles, Abus, who was on duty on this day, arrived with a thousand cavalry, and Sun Xiaoke behind him also came back.

Behind Sun Xiaoke were about a hundred ragged cavalrymen.

When Abuth saw the team reviving, his eyes couldn't help but lit up.

Speaking of which, this famous and extremely brave in history, but was played by Li Longji and An Lushan, Tongluo is about the same age as Sun Xiurong, and his life trajectory is completely different from that in history.

But a very similar situation is that when he followed Sun Xiurong west, he only brought three thousand Chile camps with Tongluo people as the core and his family. A large number of Tongluo herders remained in the local area, so they were all taken down by An Lushan, which led to An Lushan's "Yiluo River" mainly composed of Tongluo cavalry.

Abuth's expression naturally attracted Sun Xiurong's attention.

At this time, Abus quickly urged the horse to come to him.

"The Great Protector, there is a man named Ares in the front of the destruction cavalry. He is the younger brother of the Ministry of Justice. When I went west, he was still young. Unexpectedly, ten years later, he was already an adult."

Only then did Sun Xiurong see a young man in front of him who was faintly the leader, with disheveled hair, fair skin, high nose and deep eyes, and a scar on his left cheek. He seemed to have discovered Abus and was looking at him.

Sun Xiurong waved, and Ares quickly urged the horse to come. When he saw Abus just now, he was naturally happy and did not fall. When he learned that Sun Xiurong, the leader of the world-famous Slashing Army, was ahead, he quickly got off the horse and knelt down on one knee.

Sun Xiurong did not let him get up immediately.

The so-called Tongluo rebels, if they could go north from Chang'an City, they must have survived by burning, killing, and looting. No matter how fierce such an army was, he would not want to use it. Moreover, according to his memory, the Tongluo cavalry who went north from Chang'an was only part of it, and some of them went north from Yecheng. When they went north, the entire Hebei was truly empty.

The rise of vassal states and the destruction of Hebei was naturally related to An Lushan and Shi Siming, but it was not directly but indirect. The Turks, which were mainly with the Luo cavalry, had the greatest relationship with the Uighur coalition!

"Why are you waiting here?"

Sun Xiurong asked, his voice very cold.

On the way just now, Ares had already told Sun Xiaoke about the future, but in front of Sun Xiurong, he could only repeat it all in detail.

"After taking Chang'an, the Western King..., An Lushan appointed Sun Xiaoke as the Western King, and led Zhang Tongru, An Shouzhong and others to guard Chang'an. Sun Xiaoke was extremely cruel and promised to take Chang'an and let our troops plunder for a few days, but in the end he broke his promise..."

Sun Xiurong understood the reason as soon as he heard this, and thought to himself: "Sun Xiaozhe is naturally cruel and looks down on the military generals from the rest of the Turkic tribes, but in the final analysis, he still did not allow you to wait for the massive robbery."

Ares continued, "So General Ashina took us north with him..."

"Hmph", Sun Xiurong suddenly snorted, "You haven't finished your words. Has there been a change in the north at this time? Otherwise, you dare to cross the Wei River and go north?!"

Ares felt a little nervous and quickly replied: "Yes, the north moved to Qingzhou. After the Dangxiang people in Yanzhou learned of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty, they also rebelled one after another. The whole north of Chang'an was in chaos, so we wanted to return from Yanzhou to Xiazhou, Fengzhou, and our family was still there."

(Qingzhou, Qingyang, Yanzhou, Yan'an, Xiazhou, Ordos area, Fengzhou, and the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain after Sun Xiurong went west, An Lushan moved his tribe to Yinshan and Ordos area, and drew a large number of troops from it, becoming the core of Yiluohe River. The Khitan tribe, which was mainly the Khitan tribe, had long been familiar with the Khitan in Youzhou, and became the core of another elite Yin'an Khitan.)

"How many people were there when you left?"

"When I left, there were about three thousand cavalry, and when I arrived in Xiazhou, there were only two thousand cavalry left, and when I arrived in Fengzhou, there were only one thousand five hundred cavalry. However, in Xiazhou, Fengzhou was replenished and returned to three thousand cavalry."

"At this time, the Tang general An Baoyu stationed near Zhongshoucheng was stationed in the battle with him. At first, we fought without any victory or defeat. However, with the joining of the Pugu tribe stationed near the Shanyu Protectorate, our troops were defeated. The Pugu tribe was the eldest son of Pugu Huaien, who had already defected to the Tang Dynasty. He was very fierce. Under the attack of An Baoyu and Pugu tribe, we lost several consecutive games."

"Yesterday was the last battle. General Ashina Congli died in battle. I rushed to Huyan Valley with a few men before escaping, so..."

After saying this, Sun Xiurong breathed a sigh of relief. If there were still thousands of Tongluo cavalry, he would not be willing to accept it, but if he killed them all or put them on the mine as a slave, he would not be able to do so. The current situation is the best.

"Where are family members?"

"Don't know"

Sun Xiurong nodded. After this battle, the Tongluo tribe, as a tribe, naturally disappeared like the Junggar tribe in later generations, and would probably be incorporated into Pugu Huaien's Pugu tribe.

"You can follow Abuth for the time being"

When Ares heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly said loudly: "Thank you, Khan."

"But don't be too happy to wait too early. I broke the strict regulations of Ye Jun, far above An Lushan and Tang Army. Abus will tell you carefully later. If you violate the military order, you will still be severely punished!"

......

Not mentioning Ares and others, after returning to the camp, Sun Xiurong quickly recruited the leaders of each camp to his tent.

“…”

"Everyone, this is the situation now. Judging from you, how should our army do the best?"

Just now, Jia Dan told the story of the Khitans and Uighurs. Of course, Sun Xiurong didn't know that Ye Hu Khan had personally led the 20,000 army south, but only knew that Gu Chu's five thousand spirit cavalry.

Among all the people, Nan Gongxun and Suha were similar to Sun Xiurong's age, and they had almost the same training over the years. Especially Suha, who was born in the Gongyue tribe, was almost the same as Suha, who was as famous as Zhuketu in the later generations of Daxia Kingdom.

Sure enough, seeing that everyone was still hesitating, Suha took the lead in speaking.

"Major Protector, according to your previous statement, I am not going to take root in the northern part of the Mo, but to return to the Western Regions. In this way, the Uighurs will always become an obstacle on our army's road. At present, the Tang army is attracted by the rebels in Hebei, Hedong, and Guanzhong, which is not worth worrying."

"If the Uighurs can be defeated in the battle, the obstacles will be much less when our army returns in the future. Therefore, I suggest that we rely on Huaishuo Town to fight it."

"What about the Khitans? Bai Xiaode is still waiting for my reply."

"this......"

In Suha's eyes, it would be great if he could defeat the main force of the Uighurs with six battalions. He would have to divide his troops to attack the Khitan, which was really unimaginable.

Among the few people, Abus, who knows the Uighurs' combat power best, must also think so. Suha and Abus think so, and the remaining people will not have special suggestions.

Because in the ten years after Sun Xiurong returned to the Western Regions, the Uighurs had developed into a large tribe with a household registration of 200,000. If they were fully mobilized, it would be very likely to lead a 200,000 army south to invite them to attack their team with only more than 20,000 people.

Of course, the premise is naturally "full mobilization", which will take a long time.

Seeing that no one else was talking, Sun Xiurong said, "I have arrived here, so I won't hide it. Why did I bring two mountain camps to me this time? Of course, it's not for the tribes of the northern grasslands, but for the purpose of echoing Bai Xiaode in Liaodong, but if you want to echo Bai Xiaode, you must cross the vast Yanshan Mountains."

"Since you've had a quarrel with the Khitans, Nan Gongxi!"

"The Ministry of Jobs"

"You and Kang Xiaorong's mountain camp will take the lead. Anyway, you will not be able to wait for the mountain camp with a 500-pound heavy artillery. The speed is much faster than waiting. Go east along the post road as soon as possible. According to Bai Xiaode's report, Yelu Nieli's army should be still close to Liaodong at this time."

"You wait for a long journey day and night, take a break when you arrive at Yuyuling, and then understand the situation as soon as possible. If the Khitans are still like this, you will advance east along the Raole River and occupy the Hongye Mountain, the Great Chant of Diela tribe as quickly as possible, and catch all the nobles in one place, and then force Neri to exchange the captured Liaodong tribes."

"If they have heard the news that you have arrived and have returned to the vicinity of Hongye Mountain, then go south to Chicheng. Please be careful to go south with a hidden secret. It is best to pretend to be still in Yuyuling, target, annihilate the Neila tribe on the east side and occupy the grassland of the Neila tribe."

"Then use a camp to occupy the big tent of the Nera tribe, and the other camp to guerrilla tribes everywhere, harass the Khitan tribes, attracting Neri to come to the Nera tribe to fight you and others..."

Nan Gongxi nodded, "Major Protector, what if Neri does not care about the Nera tribe, but goes straight along the Raole River and approaches the Yuyuling area and threatens me with the back?"

Sun Xiurong replied: "I will let Abus' Chile Camp arrive near Tanshihuaitai first, gather the remaining Turkic troops there, and then approach Yu Yuling. At the same time, the remaining troops who stayed near Yuyuling should also be mobilized."
