    Du Qi said with a smile: "To deal with the Turkic cavalry, we still have to rely on bows and arrows, barbed caltrops, etc. Our army is in formation, waiting for it, and 30 steps away from the army formation, we sprinkle a dense circle of barbed caltrops."

    "Once the Turkic cavalry approaches, even if they come sparsely, there will always be cavalry hit."

    "If you kill a Turkic cavalry, the opponent will lose one man. If you kill too many, the Turkic force that assists Liu Heitai will gradually weaken, and it can add up."

    "And as soon as they approach, we still have bows and arrows to greet them."

    "At least ensure that the fight in this battle will weaken the strength of the opponent's six or seven hundred people. It is not a loss for us to be able to kill six or seven hundred people. Once the opponent wants to break through the area of ??the barbed wire and continue to kill, so close,  So with the help of shields and big guns, they used defense as offense."

    Du Qi said: "Using shield soldiers and big spears to form a phalanx to meet them is like a hedgehog, covered with thorns. The Turkic cavalry can't move, so at this point, it can at least cause the loss of more than a thousand people on the other side."

    "When the opponent retreats, the Black Armored Cavalry will fight out from a distance, cover and kill for a while, and achieve certain results. Therefore, this battle is divided into three levels of fighting."

    Du Qi said: "The first is the fight when the opponent approaches, the second is the fight when the opponent has already come, and the third is the fight when the opponent retreats. We don't like fighting. As long as the opponent comes, we only aim to kill the enemy.  "

    After Li Shimin heard it, he nodded hurriedly, with a look of approval.  He turned to look at Li Xiaogong and said, "Xiaogong, what do you think of Erlang's plan?"

    Li Xiaogong said: "The layers are clear, and it is very maneuverable. I think it can be arranged. Of course, it also depends on how the Turkic side responds. If the Turkic people immediately evacuate as soon as they see the barbed wire, there will be no follow-up  matter."

    Li Shimin said: "It's up to people to make things happen. No matter what the Turkic side is, we can arrange it like this."

    Li Xiaogong said: "What Your Highness said is very true."

    Li Shimin quickly made arrangements.

    At this time, the army has changed its formation.  The Xuanjia Jingqi has already evacuated and stationed in the distance.  And all the 30,000 elites lined up, waiting for the formation, all lined up one after another.

    However, the soldiers responsible for burying pots and making food were located in the middle area, and they were still busy. They didn't care whether there were Turks coming, because they were located in the center, and it was impossible for Turks to come to the center.

    Time passed by little by little.

    While Li Shimin and Du Qi were waiting, the army led by Zhi Shili was already approaching.

    Now that I have lost my mind, I want to make a surprise attack.

    His idea was to raid and kill people, and then kidnap some Tang soldiers.  In this way, in exchange for food, drinks and money.  After all, it is a good deal for a soldier of the Tang army to exchange ten catties of mutton.

    "kill!"

    "Boys, the meat and drinks are just ahead, go!"

    "If you want to drink, if you want to eat meat, then charge forward, then use your strength."

    "Come on!"

    Zhi lost his mind and rode his horse to run, he shouted to encourage the soldiers under his command.  The mighty eight thousand Turks are getting closer and closer to the place where the Tang army is stationed.

    In fact, there are less than 8,000 people who are obsessed with losing their power of thinking, and there are only more than 7,700 people.  Because in the previous fight, part of it was lost, and the source of soldiers could not be replenished due to the loss of mental strength, it could only be like this.

    However, it is equivalent to 8,000 people.

    Eight thousand Turkic children have completely spread out and scattered around this wide plain.  And this time, Zhishen's power is to disperse all the soldiers, so that they are not easy to be shot and killed, and can also display the combat effectiveness of Turkic soldiers.

    The distance keeps getting closer.

    It didn't take long, and the Turkic cavalry was less than two hundred steps away from the Tang army's position.

    Tang Jun could clearly see the Turks.

    Du Qi was also in the crowd. He stood on his horse and looked into the distance.  Seeing the Turkic cavalry getting closer, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. This time, he must teach these Turkic people a lesson.

    When the distance was shortened to about a hundred steps, suddenly, there were voices one after another almost at the same time: "Fire the arrow!"

    Around the army formation, bows and arrows were shot out quickly.

    The dense rain of bows and arrows swept across the sky, and with a whistling sound, they went straight to the Turkic cavalry.  Even though the Turkic cavalry was not easy to be shot because they surrounded the surrounding area and all scattered, but after the distance was shortened to within a hundred steps, many Turkic cavalry were shot, and the Turkic cavalry screamed and fell down.  on the ground.

    Although the number of people is not large, at least a hundred?? People hit the arrow.  Zhishenli didn't care about these things, and continued to order to move forward, so the distance kept getting closer.

    Even though there were still soldiers hit by arrows at this time, in the blink of an eye, they were shortened to a distance of about thirty steps.

    This area is full of barbed wire.

    The horse ran, unable to hide at all, and directly stepped on the barbed wire.  The war horse went so mad that it fell down, and one after another the Turkic cavalry fell to the ground.

    Seeing this situation, I knew something was wrong.  Tang Jun here is obviously prepared.  Even if the soldiers under his command rushed forward, it might not be easy to kill Tang Jun.

    The problem is that hundreds of soldiers under his command were lost.  He was a little reluctant to withdraw in such a desperate manner, so he was in a dilemma instead.

    It stands to reason that this wide place is where the cavalry can come and go freely.  The problem is that Tang Jun has turned into a tortoise shell, and there is nothing he can do if he loses his mind.

    "Withdraw troops, retreat!"

    Desperate and helpless, I can only order.

    "Woo! Woo!"

    The sound of the retreating horn resounded on the empty plain.  When the Turkic soldiers heard the sound of the horn, they quickly turned their horses and then withdrew from the battlefield.

    Because the battlefield is wide and all soldiers are spread out, they can evacuate quickly.  However, during this evacuation, they were attacked by a wave of arrows, and a few Turkic soldiers were captured.

    This scene fell into Li Shimin's eyes.

    There was regret in Li Shimin's eyes.

    Pity!

    If the Turkic people ignore the barbed wire and continue to rush forward.  Then the Turkic cavalry and the shield soldiers fighting with spears will be able to severely damage the Turkic cavalry.

    Li Shimin saw the Turkic people retreating quickly, and ordered: "Beat the drum, order the Xuanjia Jingqi to fight, and cover up for a while."

    "Boom! Boom!!"

    The sound of war drums sounded quickly.

    In the southeast of this location, all the black armored cavalry suddenly appeared.  Nearly 10,000 Xuanjia elite cavalry attacked with mighty power, met at this time, and beheaded many Turkic cavalry.

    However, the Turkic cavalry came and went like the wind and spread out, so they retreated quickly.  After Xuanjia Jingqi killed some people, he couldn't catch up, and he didn't continue to chase, and quickly withdrew.

    Turks come and go quickly.

    One of the soldiers of the Tang army was not damaged, but the Turkic people left a lot of corpses, and many Turkic soldiers were not killed in battle but were injured and lying on the ground crying.

    With a bright smile on his face, Li Shimin immediately ordered people to clean up the battlefield.  As one soldier after another began to clear the caltrops and retract their bows and arrows, it didn't take long for the battlefield to be counted.

    In this battle, as many as 678 Turkic cavalry were beheaded, and 163 wounded soldiers were captured.  In addition, there are 143 war horses that are only injured, and 500 dead war horses.

    The results of this battle were not very good, but no soldiers were lost.

    Just such a victory alone is worth celebrating.  So Li Shimin was very happy, even if it was a small victory, it was still a victory, and it also weakened the strength of the Turks.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
