Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 39 The ace troop goes out, the Golden Horde Guard

"Then... is that my Great Tang's army?"

Li Shimin was still stunned. He racked his brains and could not guess when such a fully armed cavalry unit had been stationed near Chang'an.

This cavalry unit was moving like the wind, and it was sweeping towards the Turkic army with the momentum of covering the clouds and covering the sun.

"Your Majesty, that team... seems to be under the command of the King of Shu!"

Li Jing pointed to the banner of the cavalry unit, and there was a big "Shu" on it.

"Shu" is Li Ke's title, and this team is obviously led by Li Ke.

"Look, Your Majesty! Isn't the young man wearing the red robe at the very beginning His Royal Highness the King of Shu?"

Only then did the ministers notice that at the forefront of this cavalry unit, there was a tall figure riding a white horse and holding a halberd and a helmet.

Although the distance was very far, the man's face was not clearly seen, but everyone had already recognized that the leader of this cavalry unit was the third prince of the current emperor, Li Ke, King of Shu!
"Ke'er!"

Li Shimin's heart, which had been tightly knotted by the huge humiliation, finally relaxed.

But he immediately wondered again: "When did Ke'er have such a mighty cavalry unit?"

But there was no time for him to hesitate any longer, because the cavalry unit had already rushed to the Turkic camp.

Just a face-to-face meeting, the vanguard of the Turks was dispersed by the cavalry, and Li Ke swept across with his halberd, killing the two Turks.

"Good! Well played!"

Cheng Yaojin was the first to cry out. He was waving the Xuanhua ax in his hand as if he was slashing at the Turks with the axe.

Seeing such a thrilling killing scene, which general can't help but feel moved?
"The one who killed him, Your Highness the King of Shu, did a great job!"

Yuchi Jing was so anxious that he jumped up and down, wishing he could go on stage to help out in person.

While speaking, Li Ke killed another four or five Turkic soldiers, and had already led his troops towards Jieli.

"Hey! I didn't expect His Royal Highness the King of Shu to be so brave. Not only did he anticipate the enemy's opportunities, he used his soldiers like a god, and he went into battle by himself, and he was also unstoppable!"

Li Jing stroked his beard and smiled, then looked at Qin Qiong beside him, and asked, "Shubao, you are also a warrior who takes the lead in the battlefield, look, how does His Highness the King of Shu compare to you?"

Qin Qiong stared at Li Ke's figure, and couldn't look away for a long time. After a long time, he sighed deeply: "The king of Shu is so powerful, he is invincible!"

Qin Qiong is the number one fierce general in the Tang Dynasty. If it is about commanding thousands of troops and leading the battle, he is naturally not the strongest. But if it is about rushing and killing enemies on the battlefield, he is a good player.

Now even Qin Qiong is ashamed of himself, one can imagine how powerful and unstoppable Li Ke is at this time!
"Okay! Well done! Killed beautifully!"

Even Fang Xuanling, a calm and experienced strategist, couldn't help clenching his fists and admiring at this moment.

"Ke'er, my Ke'er...it was him who saved me in Chang'an and the people of Tang Dynasty!"

Li Shimin's whole body was already trembling at this moment, with strong emotional ups and downs, which made it difficult for this hero of the world to restrain himself.

At this moment, in the Turkic camp on the north bank of the Weishui River, Jieli Khan was shocked.

"This... Where did this cavalry come from?"

"Your Majesty, look at that number, it seems to be the army of King Shu!"

The staff on the side reported.

"King of Shu? Where did the King of Shu come from?"

Jieli Khan was furious. He didn't know when a young general and so many well-equipped cavalry soldiers would appear in the Tang Dynasty.

"That is Li Shimin's third son. He was enfeoffed in Shu. He has been developing the people's livelihood in Shu and is quite prestigious in Shu..."

"A few days ago, they have been using cloth to buy war horses from various ethnic groups. We Turks also sold a lot of war horses over there!"

The subordinate shrank back and replied.

"what?"

Xieli was startled, how could he have imagined that many of the horses charging towards him were sold from Turkic people.

"How could they have predicted in advance that we would go south to attack Tang?"

Jie Li was greatly puzzled. Shu was not close to Chang'an. Even if he received the news and came to King Qin, he would not be able to do it so fast.

"This……"

The Turkic generals were all taken aback, looking at each other, but they couldn't come up with an answer.

How did they know that Li Ke had already planned the Turkic southward movement, prepared horses, food and grass in advance, and organized troops to garrison, in order to save Chang'an from the fire and water with the fastest speed and the most organized formation.

"Brothers, the Turks are right in front of us. They kill my compatriots, rob me of food and grass, and have a sworn hatred with us. We must not let a Turk go!"

Li Ke slashed repeatedly and led his troops to the high slope where the Turkic camp was located.

"No, we are stuck on this high slope, retreat quickly!"

Only then did the Turkic generals realize that the other side was encircling them and was about to cut off their retreat.

"It's too late, we can only fight hard!"

Jieli Khan gritted his teeth and interrupted the generals. At this moment, the main force was blocked on the high slope by cavalry, and there was no way to retreat.

With a wave of his hand, Jieli Khan shouted angrily: "Where are the Golden Horde Guards?"

"The end is here!"

At this time, a tall and burly middle-aged general stood up and clapped his hands in response.

This middle-aged general is the Turkic fierce general Ashina Misi, whose Golden Tent Guards has [-] soldiers, which is the most well-equipped and most powerful ace army of the Turks.

"This king ordered you to lead the army to meet the enemy immediately!"

"As ordered!"

Ashina Misi was about to lead the army to attack, but was stopped by Xieli again.

"Wait!"

Everyone was curious, but they saw Jieli Khan sneered quietly, saying: "You don't need to face the enemy head-on, attack from the flank, and give it a slash in the waist!"

The Turkic general was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that Jieli was attacking his weakness, intending to disrupt the formation of the cavalry from the side and completely disrupt the momentum of the enemy's charge.

At this time, the cavalry of the king of Shu were pointing directly at the Turkic camp, and the front was the most sharp point. If they fought head-to-head, the Turkic people would be hard to resist.

But the side is different, that is the weakness of the cavalry unit, if it can be washed away by the middle, the cavalry unit will be like a poisonous snake that has been manipulated by seven inches, completely losing its edge.

"Your Majesty is really good at using soldiers like a god. In such a critical moment, he can still command with certainty. You are truly a world-class hero!"

The Turkic generals sighed.

As the Golden Horde Guards attacked, the situation on the battlefield changed subtly.

Earlier, the Turkic soldiers were suddenly attacked by the cavalry, and they panicked immediately, only to be beaten.

But now as soon as the Golden Tent Guards came out, all the soldiers regained their composure and applauded one after another.

"The Golden Tent Guards are here. This is all right. Your Majesty has dispatched an ace troop to defeat the Shu king's cavalry!"

"General Simi went out in person to deal with that mere Shu king, isn't it easy?"

At this moment, the generals of the Tang Dynasty on the south bank of the Wei River were stunned when they saw the banner of the Golden Horde Guard.
