Sun Xiurong's brows frowned slightly.

Jia Dan naturally understood this expression - although it was a bit unexpected, it was reasonable after all.

So he continued: "In the battle last night, our army suffered about a thousand casualties, including about three hundred heavy cavalry, heavy barracks, and about seven hundred other people..."

Sun Xiurong felt nervous. Although he was prepared, he was a little sad when he actually faced it.

As if he wanted to pull him to another place, Jia Dan quickly reported the enemy's casualties.

"The Great Protector, under the long-range firepower of our army, the Uighurs suffered heavy casualties this time."

"There was a thousand-man commander from the Yaoluoge tribe among the prisoners. He knew all the details of the Uighurs. According to his confession, the Uighur Khan Ye Hu led a total of 30,000 troops south this time, of which he had his own elite troops, which was known as the Golden Lion Camp, but he did not participate in the battle this time."

"The nine outer surnames, Sijie, Qibi, Hun, Aduo, and Pugu, and about 12,000 people were killed and about half of them were captured. Ye Hu's standing army, led by his Daluo Yue Dun, was mainly composed of elite troops of the nine inner surnames, and there were about half of them."

As Sun Xiurong's marching Sima, he not only knew the secret contacts between Ye Hu and Di Jian in the eastern part of the Uighur Khanate, but also participated deeply. For Jia Dan, whether in the Tang Dynasty or in the Shattered Ye Army, he naturally spared no effort to weaken the tribes in the northern desert.

"Ye Hu's standing army originally had 20,000, and half of Yue Dun's loss, plus his Golden Lion Camp, there were about 8,000, and there were still 5,000 in Huaishuo Town. Now..."

Sun Xiurong's eyes suddenly shone with brilliance.

"Needless to say, when Bendu Protector took away Bogda Camp and Bogra Camp, only Suha's Tianshan Camp was left there. At this time, Gu Chuo in the north must have contact with Li Siye in the south. How could they not take risks in this situation? I hope that Li Siye will all be dispatched. In that case, my plan will be half successful."

Jia Dan nodded, but like Ma Lin, as a Han man, he felt unhappy when he thought of Li Siye and Li Sheng's army being killed and injured under Suha's artillery bombardment.

Sun Xiurong glanced at him sideways and sneered: "Is it possible that Jia Lang has a grudge?"

Jia Dan felt a little nervous and quickly bent down and bowed and said, "How dare you? The food and grass from the surrendered city in Zhongcheng are needed by our army. This is also the only purpose of the Protector in Huaisuo Town for more than two months. If he cannot kill and injure the Tang army vigorously, there will be no food and grass."

Sun Xiurong's face was still calm, and he nodded slightly, "I have planned this matter with you before. Even if our army has a side van, it can only carry food and grass for three months at most. The army is outside and is far away from the local area. The only place that can be supplied is in Fengzhou. At present, the three armies of An Chongzhang, Li Sheng and Li Siye who are in the middle of the surrender city are crowded together, so there must be a lot of food and grass."

"An Chongzhang, Li Siye, and Li Sheng are all famous generals of the Tang army. After the defeat of Geshuhan Tongguan, all the elites of the Shuofang army were brought to Hedong by Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi. The elites left in Shuofang were the three armies. The food and grass they carried, plus the previous storage of Zhongshoujiang City, must be quite a lot of them."

"There is not much needed for my first lord, it's enough for my six or seven battalions to be the first year. In a year, the major events we have repeatedly planned are basically over."

"Don't worry, since we are intervening, the An Lushan rebels will not succeed for too long. By then, the food and grass in Youzhou will be enough for us to consume for a while."

"It's still the old way. The soldiers who died will be cremated immediately, and then put the ashes into the cloth bag with the name written on them. After finally returning to the Western Regions, a large ceremony will be held."

Jia Dan asked, "Major Protector, then next..."

Sun Xiurong thought for a while, "Juchu's standing army is probably fighting with Suha. In this way, Ye Hu's standing army is only 8,000, and it's almost the same as moving to the place where the land is. At this time, the news sent by our Yu Hou army should have reached the place where the land is where the land is. It depends on how he acts."

Jia Dan said: "No more, Ye Hu, although he is young, can judge the situation and sees that he is not as good as our army. The purpose of the nine foreign surnames has also achieved its goal. He immediately made a quick decision to withdraw his troops immediately. At least on the battlefield, he is still quite powerful, and we don't know what the move is," he said.

"According to the theory that Yi Dijian learned about the battle here, he should lift the siege of Abus. Go north and meet with Ye Hu..."

Sun Xiurong said: "Our army is famous, and Ye Hu asked Yidijian to move south first, obviously to weaken his troops. Before that, most of them also advised Yidijian to use his superior forces to fight our army in the field to have a chance to win."

"Riding Earth Jian is not at the moment, but Ye Hu's standing army has suffered serious losses. If he moves Earth Jian and does not take the initiative to move to him at this time, Ye Hu's suspicion will be deepened. If he moves Earth Jian and takes the eight thousand standing army and Duolang Ge, Baye Gu and the two members go north to return to Langjuxu Mountain, the two members will completely tear their faces."

Speaking of this, Sun Xiurong smiled and said, "If you are moving to the ground, how should you act? It will not only help Ye Hu to relieve his guard and preserve his strength?"

Jia Dan lowered his head and thought for a while, "Majority Protector, although Yi Dijian did not act according to Ye Hu's orders, he saved the Uighur power after all, and Ye Hu returned with great defeat. If Ye Hu would Yi Dijian call him to the big tent and kill him, this would definitely cause an uproar in the entire Khanate."

"So, Ye Hu would not do this, but because the standing army of the Uighur royal court was greatly weakened, he would definitely ask those close to the inner nine surnames and outer nine surnames to supplement their military strength. At this time, if you move to the ground with a strong ground, you should reduce your standing army."

"According to the information he provided, there were only 8,000 permanent troops in Langjuxu Mountain, about 2,000 from Yaoluoge tribe. Duan Lan Ge, Bayegu, and 3,000 each. Duan Lan Ge has been stationed in the middle of Dule River for a long time, and has a good relationship with the surrounding tribes. Such a permanent troops will naturally not be allowed to join Ye Hu's command if they move to the ground."

"At present, the most reliable support force for moving to the east is the Baye Ancients. In addition to Dakedun, there is also the possibility of resigning to the Uighurs between the Wei people, the Jun tribe, and the remaining Turkic tribes. And he and the Uighur royal court are separated by Langjuxu Mountain, so completely resigning to Ye Hu in the eastern part became the only choice."

"The families of the permanent army of Bayegu's tribe are all in the upper reaches of the Dule River and the Kruren River Basin, and are under the control of Modian Jin. If Modian Jin array is a powerful figure, letting Bayegu's three thousand people be led by Ye Hu, and then waiting for the opportunity is the best strategy."

"Do you mean these three thousand people are nominally the standing army of the Uighur Khan? In fact, it is equivalent to a considerable force placed by Ye Hu?"

"Yes"

Sun Xiurong nodded, "If there was no big accident, Suha should be able to repel the Uighurs and Tang Army coalition as I told me, and the remaining Turkic troops gathered near Tanshihuaitai should also arrive at the designated position."

"In this case, all 15,000 people in the three divisions will be lost, half of the Yue Dun army will be lost, half of the elites in the nine surnames will be lost, and the Guchu army will no longer exist. In this case, the Uighurs will lose 30,000 people in the battle. I really can't think of any reason Ye Hu will continue to fight with our army."

"Add to the constraints of moving the ground, the Uighurs' affairs came to an end."

"Then I'll wait?"

"What else can I do? Of course I'm going to the ward!"

......

Huaishuo Town.

After Sun Xiurong left, as he expected, at the strong suggestion of Dunhuang Prince Li Chengcai, three armies of Gu Chuo, Li Siye and Li Sheng suddenly smeared and arrived near Suha's camp, and then surrounded Suha's camp just as Ye Hu's army did in Mandula!

The result of the battle was similar to that of the Battle of Mandula. Whether it was the Uighur Army or the Tang Army, under the attack of the superior long-range firepower of the Shattered Ye Army, they were not as good as Ye Hu, and they were unable to even reach the range of a low wall.

Three days later, the coalition forces lost about 30% of their military strength, but the Suha camp remained unmoved!

At this time, Gu Chuo, Li Siye, and Li Sheng all wanted to retreat, but at this time, the figure of Tongluo people suddenly appeared near Huaishuo Town!

Now even if Li Siye wants to retreat to Zhongshoujiang City safely, it will be a bit dangerous. So he contacted An Chongzhang (Li Baoyu), who was stationed in Zhongshoujiang City, and asked him to dispatch half of his military force to meet them at the southern entrance of Huyangu.

As mentioned earlier, after Abus arrived at Tanshihuaitai, he gathered the remaining Turkic tribes and Nanbaye Gu tribes that were originally placed there by Sun Xiurong, moved to this place, and also selected 7,000 tribal cavalry.

After the three-day battle, Gu Chu's five thousand army lost almost half. Seeing that he could not complete the task of Ye Hu Dahan's journey south to support the Tang army in defeating the rebels, he could only return to Wude Mountain before talking.

Halfway through, Gu Chu's remaining part was attacked by the remaining three thousand Turkic tribes. In the end, Gu Chu gave up his baggage and retreated to the Uighur royal city with about a thousand cavalry.

The other 4,000 cavalry of the remaining Turkic troops suddenly arrived from the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain under the leadership of Abus' brother Ares, and then defeated An Chongzhang's troops who were preparing to pick up Li Siye's army at the southern entrance of Huyan Valley.

As mentioned earlier, An Chongzhang's army, who was in the middle of the surrender city, had only 3,000 troops, most of which were infantry, and most of the cavalry were transferred to Hedong by Guo Ziyi, so they were no match for Ares at all. After being defeated, An Chongzhang didn't care about that much and led a few cavalry to rush to the middle of the surrender city!

At this time, about Qianqian cavalry in Ares's army dressed as Tang army and followed An Chongzhang, shouting loudly as An Chongzhang was about to enter the city: "Jingmen's defeat! Jiemen's defeat!"

Since An Chongzhang was rushing to the city, he couldn't tell the authenticity, so he let all the thousands of cavalry enter.

The result is conceivable. Ares defeated An Chongzhang and occupied the Zhongshou Suicheng!

In the north, Li Siye, who was retreating south in Huyan Valley, was shocked when he learned about this, and the morale of the entire army fell to the lowest point. After Ares won the Zhongshoucheng City, he immediately left the city and brought about about two thousand cavalry to seal the southern entrance of Huyan Valley!

At this time, Suha also went south with two thousand cavalrymen. Li Siye and Li Sheng's army intercepted the front and pursued the army. The situation was in danger. In the end, the Mo Dao soldiers under Li Siye showed their power and defeated Ares' cavalry. In the end, Ares only fled back to Zhongshoucheng City with only 800 cavalry.

However, Li Sheng's army, which was cut off from the rear, was obviously not a match for Suha. The enhanced version of the short crossbow of the Shattered Ye Army and the use of cavalry with the sky-shaking thunder were not familiar to Li Sheng, who had been fighting against the Tubo people in Longyou, but naturally he was defeated.
