Chapter 2097 A complete defeat
In the Tang army's formation, a young general in white robes and red tassels rode up on horseback. He held a gilded phoenix-winged hammer in his hand. He looked majestic and fierce. He looked Qibi Kele up and down and shouted: "Since you are no longer stubbornly resisting, I think you are a smart man. Come and tie him up and take him into custody for the time being!"
"Wait!"
Qibi Kele shouted quickly. He wanted to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, but he did not want to become a prisoner of his subordinates and suffer the humiliation of the soldiers.
"This is Xue Yantuo Yinan Khan. He was seriously injured after falling from a horse. His life is at stake. I would like to ask the general to remember his noble status and provide timely treatment."
I am not a prisoner, I have a surrender certificate!
Xue Rengui was immediately shocked and asked: "Is this true?"
Qibi Kele said: "There is no falsehood. The general can order the prisoners to come forward and identify it."
Naturally, Xue Rengui couldn't believe his words. He immediately dismounted his horse and ordered someone to escort several prisoners over and identify them on the spot. Xue Yantuo is a nomadic people, and the hierarchy of nobles and commoners is certainly deep-rooted. However, every great khan is not the kind of emperor who sits alone in his tent, grows up in the palace, and is rarely seen by outsiders. He rides his horse and drinks a lot of wine. It is their habit to eat a piece of meat. Not only people from their own tribe, but also people from many tribes in Tiele tribes have seen Yinan Khan.
Many prisoners on the spot identified that this was indeed Yinan Khan.
Xue Rengui is overjoyed!
This is Yinan Khan!
Zhao Xincheng defeated Xue Yantuo's army of more than 100,000 men and even captured the enemy chieftain. For this feat alone, the entire Youtun Guards could be promoted from top to bottom!
What an incredible feat.
Immediately, he ordered the army doctor to treat Yinan Khan, commanded the troops to continue to hunt down the fleeing Xue Yantuo soldiers, and treated Qibi Kele with courtesy.
"It turns out that he is General Qibi. He was rude earlier and was rude!"
Xue Rengui, dressed in military uniform, held his fists in greeting.
He naturally knew about this defeated general, but this was the first time he met him, and he also knew that this person was Qi Bi Heli's clan brother. The Qibi Tribe is one of the more powerful tribes among the Tiele tribes. Now that Xue Yantuo has been defeated, it can be predicted that Mobei will be in turmoil for a long time to come. The various tribes will fight against each other and fight endlessly. If it can be Gaining the allegiance of the entire Qibi tribe would be extremely convenient for Datang to control Mobei.
Moreover, Qibi Heli is a confidant of His Majesty Li Er and relies heavily on him. With these connections, Qibi Heli could have received generous treatment if he surrendered, not to mention that he also submitted a letter of approval and sacrificed the Yinan Khan. come out?
It can be foreseen that in the future, this Qibi Kele will definitely receive the attention of His Majesty Li Er.
Xue Rengui has a high emotional intelligence, so naturally he will not offend such a powerful man who has power and people behind him.
Qibi Kele did not dare to underestimate Xue Rengui. This time, the Tang Army's Youtun Guards came out of Baidao and rushed straight to Mobei. They advanced through all the obstacles and obstacles. Now they defeated Zhao Xincheng, defeated Xue Yantuo's main force, and captured Yinan Khan. His achievements have been astonishing. The momentum cannot be suppressed by anyone.
After this battle, every general and captain of Youtun Guard will be greatly promoted, there is no doubt about this.
And now he can become the general of Youtunwei. After the war and promotion after the war, he will not be able to escape the rank of at least a third-level Huaihua general. Even because this battle is a great victory against foreigners, it is very likely that he will be edicted as a general. A champion general with higher honors.
At such a young age, but with such a promising future, who can offend such a person?
Qibi Kele said respectfully: "How dare you treat a defeated general as a general? I don't know where Marshal Fang is now. Can I go to meet him and tell you something important?"
Xue Rengui said: "Of course, the general is in the city to treat the wounded prisoners. I will order someone to take the general there."
After saying that, he ordered a team of about a hundred people to be separated to escort Chibi Kele and his soldiers. He also obtained a few wooden boards and placed the unconscious Yinan Khan on top, and tied ropes on them. Dragging on the snow towards the city, he went to meet Fang Jun.
He himself led his soldiers on the road immediately and pursued them in the direction of Yu Dujun Mountain in the north.
……
Qibi Kele was escorted into the city by the Tang army.
It is said to be a "city", but in fact it is now in ruins.
Xue Yantuo is not good at construction. Most of the buildings here were built when the city was built. They were repaired and repaired over hundreds of years. They were simply repaired on the basis of collapsed houses. The bricks, tiles, and stones were in dilapidated condition, and even the wood was in ruins. Also mostly decayed.
This time it was blown up by a huge amount of gunpowder, and all the buildings collapsed and were ruined.
The gunpowder smoke in the city has not yet dissipated. Snowflakes fell from the sky. The pungent smell of gunpowder smoke was everywhere. Among the broken walls and ruins, the bodies of countless Xue Yantuo soldiers were buried. Not many people were directly killed. But in this weather, Under these conditions, if the injury is slightly more serious, it cannot be treated, and the patient can only wait to die slowly.
Therefore, on the ruins of the city, countless wounded soldiers of Xue Yantuo groaned in pain, cried for their fathers and mothers, struggled in pain, and were miserable, just like hell.
The Tang Army's doctor, who had a white towel tied around his arm, was busy treating the patient.
Some of the injuries were minor. After simple treatment, soldiers would take them to a military camp in the south of the city and imprison them. For those with serious injuries, they would be indifferently abandoned aside and left to fend for themselves, even for those with intestinal perforation. Those with rotten stomachs and bloody flesh were killed with a single knife.
Qibinkele shook his head, not dissatisfied. This was not cruelty, but to end their suffering.
On the battlefield, life is so fragile.
If it were the Tang army that failed at this moment, Xue Yantuo's treatment method would definitely be ten times crueler than this...
In a military camp on the side of the collapsed city wall in the south of the city, Qibi Kele met Fang Jun, the commander of the Tang army.
Unexpectedly young, with a slightly dark face set off by a military uniform, he is not very handsome, but he has the air of a superior, which makes him look particularly confident and easy-going.
"Qibi Kele, meet Marshal Fang!"
Qibi Kele looked at Fang Jun for a moment, then stepped forward to see him.
Fang Jun chuckled, took two steps forward, took Qibinkele's arm and pulled him up, and said warmly: "In the army, why is it necessary to give such a big gift? Although you and I are enemies, I treat the general. It has been famous for a long time, and I am really lucky to see it today.”
Qibi Kele smiled bitterly and said: "How can a defeated general dare to speak bravely? In the battle of Wuchuan Town, the commander-in-chief made the strong city that he had managed for more than ten years fall without a single blow. The battle of Nuozhenshui even killed Han Han's courage. . There are many outstanding people in the Tang Dynasty, and there are many famous ministers and generals. The commander-in-chief has achieved such achievements at such a young age. In time, he will definitely become the next Li Weigong!"
Fang Jun laughed loudly and asked Qi Bikele to take a seat. Naturally, he didn't take these flattering words to heart.
The next Li Weigong?
Don't talk nonsense. Li Jing is like a god with his troops and is victorious in every battle. If I didn't rely on the power of firearms, who could I defeat?
The two of them sat down, and a soldier brought tea. Fang Jun asked Qibi Kele to drink it, and then asked: "The soldiers came to report that the general had something to tell him. I don't know what it is?"
Qibi Kele did not answer, but asked: "At this moment, the army is chasing Xue Yantuo's army all the way north to Yudujun Mountain. Why does the commander actually want to sit here? Isn't this a missed opportunity?"
In this battle, the Tang army's victory was already destined.
More than 100,000 elite soldiers were lost in Zhao Xincheng. Xue Yantuo's vitality was greatly damaged and his foundation was severely damaged. It was impossible for him to have any remaining strength to defeat the Tang army. He went straight to Xue Yantuo Khan's tent in Yu Dujun Mountain and conquered Shi Yanran Mountain. This was a feat that no one could stop.
As the coach, Fang Jun did not go to the front line to hold his merits tightly in his hands at this time. Instead, he sat here and did not think about making progress. It is difficult for anyone to understand...
Fang Jun shook his head slightly and smiled but did not answer.
Attack?
He doesn't need it at all.
This battle rushed straight to Mobei. His name, Fang Jun, must be engraved in the history books. This is enough. As for the destruction of Xue Yantuo's tooth tent and the direct attack on Longcheng, we will leave it to Xue Rengui and the others who will arrive later. Xue Wanche and others are here.
He is now invincible. Even with his great achievements, is it possible that he can still become the Grand Marshal of the Army?
A general who governs the country and a general who assists the country is unstoppable. Even a hussar general cannot...
Therefore, all the meritorious deeds given to him were in vain and wasted.
And these achievements fell on Xue Rengui, which allowed him to rise quickly and become a star on par with Su Dingfang among Fang Jun's forces.
As long as we have a solid team, what achievements can we make in the future?
What's more, after Xue Wanche's troops were defeated, even though he knew it was against the emperor's will, he still followed him without hesitation to clean up the mess for his queen. This favor had to be repaid, let alone among Xue Wanche's right guards. With several friends of his own, sharing his merits with Youwuwei can be regarded as indirectly promoting his friends, so why not do it?
Naturally, it was impossible to tell Qibi Kele clearly these words, so when faced with Qibi Kele's questions, Fang Jun just smiled and did not explain. (End of chapter)
