Legendary star: Signed to the Palace at the beginning

Chapter 151 Sneak Attack
Xiao Chuan said: "Zhang Xutuo, Yuchijia, remember the location of the stables. After the battle starts, the task of the two of you is to open the door of the stables, release all the horses and take them away. If you snatch more Cattle and sheep are better."

Zhang Xutuo and Yuchijia hurriedly agreed.

When the three of them came back, all the soldiers had almost rested. Xiao Chuan said, "Ge Shulu, teach everyone a few words that Turkic people shout when fighting. When the time comes, everyone will speak Turkic and pretend to be Western Turkic to rob."

Many of the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were of the Xianbei nationality. Their ancestors had fought against the Turkic people all the year round. Some of them could speak Turkic, and those who could not speak a few words quickly under the teachings of Geshulu and others.

"When we approach the Turkic tribe later, we will set fire first and use bows and arrows to suppress the Turks who want to rush out. Zhang Xutuo and Yuchijia will release the horses, and we will cover their retreat."

"Don't forget to throw a few Western Turkic flags when you retreat."

A thousand cavalry slowly approached the East Turkic tribe, forming a semi-surrounding shape.

Fifty steps away from the East Turkic Tribe, Xiao Chuan said in a low voice, "Light the torch and shoot the rocket."

The Zhou soldiers lit torches one after another, lit the tip of the arrow wrapped in kerosene, and shot towards the camp of the Eastern Turkic tribe.

"call……"

Thousands of rockets fell on the tents and food in the camp of the Eastern Turkic tribes, and immediately ignited a fire.

Some Eastern Turkic people who were sleeping were burned to death, some woke up, and rushed out of the tent naked with weapons or other messy things. The Turks hurriedly sought cover to escape.

An old Turkic man who looked like a leader hid behind a cart with a shield and shouted in Turkic: "Who are you? Why did you attack our tribe?"

Under Xiao Chuan's gesture, Ge Shulu shouted in Turkic: "I am from Western Turkic. I came here today to borrow some horses from you. If you don't want to die, just hide."

The old Turkic man said in grief and indignation: "Our tribe has never had any enmity with the Western Turks. Why do you want to rob us?"

Ge Shulu said: "You Eastern Turkic Khan wants to make peace with Da Zhou. To deal with us Western Turkic, it will be a matter of time before we have enmity. We just act first."

The old Turkic man was still talking, but Yu Juluo shot an arrow and hit the shield in his hand, the shield was so shaken that he almost dropped it.

The Turkic old man was too frightened to move.

Zhang Xutuo and Yuchijia led more than 100 Zhou soldiers to split the fence, rushed into the camp of the Turkic tribe, and hacked to death when they met the interceptor.

Finally, the gate that closed the livestock was opened, and the horses, cattle and sheep were released.

The fire and the shouts of killing had already made these animals restless, and when they saw the gate opened, they rushed out desperately.

After Zhang Xutuo and others drove the horses, cattle and sheep away, Xiao Chuan directed the rest of the troops to retreat slowly.

At dawn, the Turkic old man and the tribe came out from their hiding places. The enemy had disappeared, and what was left was a mess.

The tribe of thousands of people suffered 300 casualties, most of the food and grass were burned, horses, cattle and sheep were taken away, and many tents were burned. How can the tribe survive?

The Eastern Turkic tribe who plundered the Great Zhou for a long time was robbed by the Western Turkic tribe of the same clan this time. This must be said!
Several Turkic warriors took the Western Turkic flags they picked up and sent them to the old chief.

The Turkic old man stepped on the only remaining war horse, and said in grief and indignation: "You come with me, we go to the royal court to complain to Tuobo Khan, let Tuobo Khan send soldiers, and settle accounts with the bastards of the Western Turks! The rest will rescue The wounded, collect the lost livestock."

Xiao Chuan led his men and ran for more than 100 miles, stopped on the bank of the Orkhon River, set up camp, and began to count the captured livestock.

This time, more than 500 war horses, more than 500 cattle, and more than 2000 sheep were seized in this sneak attack. Due to the darkness, some horses, cattle and sheep were lost, but this was also a great victory.

Xiao Chuan ordered his soldiers to kill dozens of sheep, and everyone had a good meal.

After waiting for half a day, Shi Wansui came back with a thousand of his Zhou soldiers. They also gained a lot.

Now the 1000 Dazhou soldiers not only have one person and two riders, but also have more than [-] cattle and nearly [-] sheep.

Shi Wansui said excitedly: "Brother Dugu, if we have a chance in the future, we will come to the border to grab some Turkic livestock and buy them inland, which will greatly relieve our Dazhou people's demand for cattle and horses."

Xiao Chuan said: "Yes, those sheep can not only eat meat, but wool is also a good thing."

Shi Wansui wondered, "What can wool do?"

Xiao Chuan said: "You can weave woolen sweaters and weave carpets. If you don't believe me, you can ask Sakuhe. Their Persian carpets are famous."

Shi Wansui said: "Someone doesn't understand these twists and turns, and a certain one only knows how to fight. Brothers, you should study the rest."

Xiao Chuan and Shi Wansui joined forces and drove the cattle and sheep upstream along the Orkhon River.

About a hundred miles away, follow the marriage team.

The two Costin species pass information back and forth one after the other.

After walking for more than 500 miles, Hai Dongqing, who was in the lead, suddenly flew back and called out to Ying Nu several times.

Ying Nu hurriedly said: "My lord, Hai Dongqing found that there is an army ahead."

Xiao Chuan ordered: "The whole army stops advancing and is on alert."

Soon, several scouts came back, panting: "General, the Eastern Turkic army was found [-] miles ahead, about [-] cavalry, carrying the flag of the wolf's head."

Shi Wansui said: "Continue to investigate and report the whereabouts of the Turkic army at any time."

Several scouts changed their horses and went to continue the investigation.

Xiao Chuan said: "Brother Shi, it seems that Khan Tuobo has come to greet the relatives in person."

Shi Wansui's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he said: "Then let's do something big and ambush Tuobo Khan's team."

Xiao Chuan said with a smile: "Maybe we can kill Tuobo Khan to death."

Shi Wansui said: "Brother, what good things are you thinking of? Don't dream, Tuo Bo Khan is surrounded by the most elite Turkic guards, not to mention one for ten, at least one for five, we have enough people. Let's run if we hit one guy, and don't let the Turks catch us, our purpose is to provoke a battle between the East and West Turks."

Xiao Chuan had an idea in his mind, but he said: "Well, brother Shi, brother knows it well."

Shi Wansui sent a scout back to send a message to Chang Sun Sheng, asking the marriage team to set up camp where they were to avoid being affected by the battle.

The marriage envoy looked depressed, and said, "Ji Cheng, why did you rest after thirty miles?"

Changsun Sheng said with a smile all over his face: "My lord, Princess Qianjin is a girl after all, her body is delicate, let's walk slowly, don't worry."

Heqin said: "Nonsense, which of our Xianbei children don't ride horses as if they ride cars, how can they be so delicate?"

Changsun Sheng said: "How about you ask Princess Qianjin if she is tired?"

The marriage was just about to lose face, and said: "I don't want to touch that bad luck, Princess Qianjin originally resisted this marriage, so I want to be scolded when I go."

Changsun Sheng said, "Aren't you the uncle of Princess Qianjin? What are you afraid of?"

Heqin said: "Of course I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that she will cry. By the way, we've been away from Tucheng for a few days, why haven't we seen Shi Wansui and Duguchuan?"
