"Can't retreat!" Tong'e asked his personal guard to wave his weapons and shouted anxiously: "The army behind is crossing the river!"

However, it was useless. The Turks became headless flies. Whether it was the noble nobles or ordinary soldiers, they all rushed forward and fled, without anyone paying attention to him!

Tong'e looked at the Tang army rushing closer in despair, waiting to be shot by their bows and arrows. However, the Tang army did not shoot the arrows again, but drew out the saber!

Tong'e's personal soldiers hurriedly grabbed his horse's reins, pulled him to turn around and ran away. At that moment, a trace of enlightenment arose in Tong'e's heart. The Tang army seemed to be able to shoot for two rounds, which means that the moment just now was simply a bluff...

Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now. He glanced at the defeated soldiers and looked back at the Tang army swept overwhelmingly. He knew that the situation was hopeless and the gods could not save them. Tong'e swallowed hard and quickly devoted her thoughts to escaping...

As E analyzed, the Turks could not retreat because the Tam River was halfway behind them, and the river was filled with people crossing the river like crucian carp. Before the situation was cleared, the people who had just arrived were collided with the escaped horses. The people immediately turned over and the scene was extremely chaotic!

Li Xiaogong led the way and had already entered the Turkic formation, waving an iron spear, ruthlessly harvesting the lives of the enemy! Most Turkic people were cut to death with their backs to the Tang army. It was easier for the Tang army to kill them than chop melons and vegetables! There were even some who were extremely sleepy. When they heard the sound of war, they thought they were dreaming. They were trampled by horse hooves in a daze, and their intestines were pierced, their brains burst, and they died in a very cowardly manner...

The Tang army's encirclement was shrinking and smaller, and the Turks were constantly squeezed and had no place to stand by the river. Some Turks also tried to organize themselves and desperately wanted to break through the two banks of the river. However, this section of the river was less than half a mile away, and the Tang army had three layers inside, three layers outside, and three layers in the middle. It was surrounded like iron and water was not open. There was no possibility of these small Turkish troops escaping? They all went into the lights and fleeing fire, and were annihilated by the Tang army on the spot. None of them could escape!

Seeing this, the remaining Turks had no choice but to jump into the river... The Turks were almost unaccustomed to water, and those who rode on horses were better, but most of the Turks were not fishing for horses at all. They ran away with their legs and fled to the riverside. They were driven into the turbulent river...

After being stimulated by the cold river, the Turks who were killed suddenly realized that they could not swim at all! They hurriedly used their hands and feet together and started to thrive on the water!

There have never been so many land ducks in the Tabu River, but if they can learn to swim after a few slaps, no one will drown... Countless Turkic people slung into the water and disappeared. Some are lucky enough to catch those compatriots riding horses and immediately stop letting go as if they were catching a life-saving straw.

The water nature of these horses is originally average, and the river is turbulent. It is still extremely thrilling to carry someone across the river. When the person in the water pulls his legs, he can't hold it up immediately. The horse's body sank into the water. The person riding on the horse was shocked and roared and let the person in the water let go. How could the people in the water listen? He would never let go of the punches and kicks, and slow down the opponent. It doesn't matter if he slows down. More and more hands grabbed him and pulled the people and sank into the water together...

Such scenes can be seen everywhere on the river surface. The result of pulling and pulling is that no one can cross the river. The Turkic army has already packed the river surface like dumplings, but there are very few who can escape on the shore...

At this time, the Turks on the north bank of the river were basically eliminated, and the remaining small remnants were also divided and surrounded, and it was only a matter of time before they were completely eliminated. The main force of the Tang army was approaching the river and saw the dense Turks on the wide river surface. They were a little stunned for a moment. None of them had seen such a scene before...

It was Li Xiaogong the first to react. He took down the bow and arrow without hesitation and shot the Turks in the river. Seeing this, his personal guards also shouted loudly, shooting round after round, and shooting the Turks as if the arrows were not expensive.

The Turks struggle helplessly in the river, mostly facing away from the Tang army, and they were densely packed with people, and it was no difficulty in shooting. This is not a battle, it was just an extremely relaxed and bloody massacre...

Some Turks knew that they had no way to escape, so they turned their heads and looked at the Tang army begging and begged them for mercy.

But the massacre has begun and no one can stop it. This battle is not a prisoner battle. Before setting off, Li Xiaogong had already discussed with Li Mu. Even if he committed a murder, this battle would focus on annihilation of the Turks. At least they could not organize a huge cavalry within ten years and pose no threat to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang army's arrows were like rain, and the screams on the river surface were shook the sky, and the blood had already dyed the river water into a dark red that was almost black...

While shooting arrows, Li Xiaogong shouted: "Aim and shoot those who are about to get ashore!"

When the Tang army soldiers heard the order, they quickly targeted the Turks who were about to reach the other side.

Those lucky Turks had already seen that they had reached the river bank. On the river bank, the anxious faces of fellow soldiers and their hands stretched out...

Just move forward a little further and you can escape from the ascension!

Unexpectedly, before they had time to be happy, the Tang army's arrows rushed straight to the door. The soldiers who were about to get ashore were all shot in the arrows, almost no one was spared. The happy expression of the moment before, it frozen on their faces forever before...

The Turkic people who were preparing to respond on the south bank were also affected. Many people were injured by the Tang army's arrow rain and fell into the river screaming. The others were so scared that they quickly retreated outside the Tang army's range, and they could no longer care about their comrades in the river...

The Turks in the river were now in a desperate situation where there was no way to heaven and no way to enter the ground. The other side had been blocked by the Tang army's fire belt. Turning back, the Tang army's butcher knife was waiting. Following the river with the waves, it was even more dead. The reason why Li Xiaogong could conclude that Tong E would cross the river here was because it was far enough, and within dozens of miles nearby, the water surface was the widest and the water flow was the slowest and shallowest. In the past, the river channel suddenly narrowed, the water flow would double, the water depth would double, and everyone would be drowned. The Turkish landslides could not get through. Their horses could not get through unless there was a ferry.

How could the Turks sail? They even didn’t even know how to set up rafts!

The massacre lasted for two hours before the Tang army slaughtered the Turkic army in the river. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, halfway through the massacre, he fled east along the river with his army that had not yet crossed the river.

In this battle, the Tang army killed and injured less than 500,000, and wiped out nearly 500 elite Turkish cavalry, and injured countless enemies. On average, each person caused two casualties. This is unique in the war recorded in historical records!

Li Xiaogong's chest was undulating. He knew that this battle laid the foundation for his martial arts in this life. This battle brought back peace in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty for at least twenty years!

...

The afternoon sun shone on the bloody Tam River. On the banks of the river, within a few miles, the ground was filled with Turks with casualties and wounded pillows. The Tang army began to clean up the battlefield and took back the arrows that were shot. The Turks' bows and arrows were also taken down. There was also a tone, and a knife was added to make them die a little more thoroughly. There were countless war horses that had lost their masters, which were the most important strategic resources for grassland combat, so naturally they could not be spared. In this battle, more than 20,000 were captured, and nearly 10,000 died. The ten thousand cavalry that Li Shimin dreamed of was solved in an instant...

Li Xiaogong stood quietly by the Tam River with his hands on his back. The body on the river was washed downstream by the river, and the rich blood color gradually faded. It won't take long to restore her original appearance...

The soldiers did not dare to disturb the general, and stood quietly around Li Xiaogong, watching the surrounding wind and movements vigilantly, fearing that among the corpses all over the ground, they suddenly got up and gave Li Xiaogong a sword.

This battle completely established Li Xiaogong's position. In the past, the position of the military god in the Tang Dynasty was undoubtedly Li Jing. But now, at least the soldiers of the Dingxiang Protectorate's Office must be Li Xiaogong. When did the Tang Dynasty achieve such a great victory against the Turks for many years? Not only did it kill the enemy, but it set a new record for obtaining supplies, the key is that there was almost no damage on its own side... This is simply a miracle!

Li Xiaogong was not aware of the changes in the mood of the soldiers. What was completely different from his happy subordinates was that there was no happiness on his face, but instead he was filled with deep worries.

"Prince, I haven't seen such a great victory for many years, why don't I like and worry?" Li Xiaogong's personal soldiers captain, a veteran with gray hair, has been with Li Xiaogong for more than 20 years. He has been through the battlefield for a long time. His military achievements can be granted a marquis, but because he has no family and descendants, he refused the reward and was willing to be a relative under Li Xiaogong's disciple. In the past, when Li Xiaogong was in Chang'an, he was the housekeeper of the county prince's mansion. After going to war, he became the captain of the personal guard.

It can be said that he is the person Li Xiaogong trusts the most. He trusts more than his wife and son.

"Old Wu, you don't understand." Li Xiaogong looked into the distance. It was the direction for the Turks to escape. He did not send anyone to chase him. It was meaningless. The Turks' vitality was damaged. They chased them again, forcing them to a dead end. They fought their lives. I don't know how many times the Tang Dynasty's martial artists were going to die. This business is not worth it.

"If I can achieve such a great result this time, if I talk about the credit, I can only account for three points at most, and that seven points are counted on Li Mu. Except for him who did not follow him personally and direct the battle, almost every detail of the battle was exactly what he expected..." Li Xiaogong's tone contained a little fear and a little admiration: "I have never seen such a genius, you say that he is just a young man. Who did you learn this way of using troops?"

Old Wu was just a personal soldier and never thought about this. He said, "Didn't it be said that the Marquis was reincarnated by Taibai Jinxing, which is different from us."

"Old Wu..." Li Xiaogong sighed again and said, "Do you know what I am worried about?"

Old Wu shook his head blankly and said, "We really can't think of what the prince is worried about... We shouldn't be happy to defeat the Turks?"

"Happy!" Li Xiaogong said casually, "Why are you unhappy? Of course I am happy, happy for my Tang Dynasty and the people of the Tang Dynasty. After this battle, the northwest of the Tang Dynasty was stable... But I didn't expect that the result of this battle would be so great."

Old Wu didn't understand: "Does the prince still think it's a big contribution?"

Li Xiaogong smiled bitterly and said, "Old Wu, have you heard the words of "Great Master of Excellence?" Old Wu was stunned and instantly understood what Li Xiaogong meant.

"I never thought of rebelling when Jiangnan was pacified. Your Majesty and the Supreme Emperor knew that I would not rebel, but they still asked me to live in Chang'an. Why?" Li Xiaogong sighed. "This is not to kill a donkey, but to do this. I will not rebel, but I am in Jiangnan, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Who can guarantee that my subordinates, or my descendants, will not rebel one day? Many things are not something that anyone thinks about will definitely do... "

"This time, I made an extraordinary contribution. There is no more trouble in the northwest, but for Your Majesty..." Li Xiaogong's tone became more bitter: "I became a new trouble. Just like back then, he knew that I would not rebel, but he would not believe that the arrogant soldiers and powerful generals under my command who had just won the victory and made contributions will always be so docile."

Old Wu said with difficulty: "Your Majesty is a benevolent and righteous monarch, so he should not..."

"This is not a matter of benevolence or righteousness... Forget it, you don't understand." Li Xiaogong waved his hand and stopped talking about himself. He talked about Li Mu again: "One of my concern is Li Mu. He was ordered to be granted a duke in the face of danger and was awarded a duke, and was also given a remnant order. Such honors are already an extremely powerful minister, and they have even been regained. After this battle, the merits must be rewarded. How can Your Majesty reward him? Do you really want to grant him the prince?"

"The great achievements are beyond recognition, and the Lord of the Shin is in danger. Since the two things are there, how can I be worrying?"

At this time, a river breeze with a strong bloody blood blew, and Li Xiaogong was silent, and the atmosphere was extremely stagnant.

At this time, Old Wu saw his subordinates escorting a Turkic man with a bruised nose and a swollen face. He wanted to change the topic and then went up to him: "Didn't you say that if you meet someone who is not dead, just finish the attack? Why did you bring it here?"

"The report team is in charge. This man claims to be the captain of the Turkic Khan's personal guard, Ji Ji!" As he spoke, he slapped the captain in the head: "Speak!"

"When you say to all the generals, the villain is indeed a great khan. Oh no, it is the captain of the guard of the old thief."

Li Xiaogong looked at him contemptuously and said, "I just lost, and I'm selling my master to survive. Are you worthy of being a man?"

"There is a reason for the villain!" It's good if he doesn't listen to this. When he heard this, he suddenly crawled with anger and grievance, and said angrily: "That old bastard, he only cares about his own escape, and he doesn't care about other people's lives!"
