Tibet

Chapter 277
When Li Ye came outside the city, he saw two women in black. They were wearing veils and leading a horse. Li Ye felt a little wary in his heart, and asked from a distance, "Have you seen me?"

The leading woman said: "In the Snow Mountain Tavern in Suiye City, the general came to see my master and left the next day."

Li Ye's face was a little hot, and he stepped forward and asked, "What's the news about Ah Ling?"

The woman handed a note to Li Ye, "My master gave it to you?"

Li Ye opened the note and read it again, he was taken aback, and quickly asked, "Where is Ah Ling?"

"They should now go west along the Pearl River, we agreed to meet in Kesai City."

Li Ye gave them dozens of gold coins, and asked the soldiers to bring them water and dry food. The two women thanked them again and again, turned their horses and ran towards the Qianquan Grand Canyon.

Li Ye hurried to the big tent of the Chinese army and found the coach Gao Xianzhi.

At this time, Gao Xianzhi was discussing military affairs with Cheng Qianli. After hearing Li Ye's report, Gao Xianzhi was also taken aback, "I was waiting for the food and grass brought by Broken Leaf, but it didn't arrive. Could it be that the Ge Luolu people stopped me?"

Li Ye bowed and said, "Commander Qi, no matter whether the Ge Luolu people have cut off our grain road or not, we must open another grain road and use the Grand Canyon of Qianquan Mountain to transport grain from Bahana, but the fastest It will take five days to reach Talas City."

Gao Xianzhi pondered for a moment and said: "We still have captured camels to supplement the army rations, and we can last for five days, but what I am worried about is not only the food problem, but the Ge Luolu people joining the battle. Sare has [-] troops. If a big war breaks out, , These [-] cavalry suddenly attacked us from the back, undoubtedly stabbed us in the back, and this trouble must be resolved in advance."

Li Ye immediately clasped his fists and said, "Let the humble post go! I will bring 4000 people from the headquarters, and Prince Arolie's 7000 cavalry. [-] people are enough to kill the Ge Luolu people."

Gao Xianzhi nodded, "Ge Luolu will leave it to you!"

Cheng Qianli, who had been silent all this time, smiled and said: "The cavalry of the Ge Luolu people is also very strong. Most of your men are the cavalry of Tuhan, who may not be the opponent of the opponent. I will give you [-] heavy armored infantry!"

Li Ye was overjoyed, bowed and said, "Thank you Cheng for your success!"

Cheng Qianli smiled slightly and said: "It's really a monkey, just climb up the pole, okay! I'll leave it to you."

Gao Xianzhi realized that Cheng Qianli gave Li Ye [-] heavy armored infantry, not lent him temporarily.

This made Gao Xianzhi secretly surprised. Heavy armored infantry has always been the most important thing in an army, and no one is willing to give it to others. Cheng Qianli obviously spent all his money on Li Ye, and of course it is Li Linfu's face.

Gao Xianzhi also thought secretly, did he have to spend some money on the configuration of Suiye Army?

Li Ye immediately found A Luo Lie and asked him to immediately establish a logistics supply line from Bahana to Suiye City. A Luo Lie immediately stated that he would immediately send an eagle letter to Kesai City, asking his father to urgently send [-] sheep to Talas city.

The fate of Pullhana has been deeply tied to the Tang Dynasty, and Prince Arolie also knows that the Tang army must not fail in the Battle of Talas, otherwise, Pullhana will inevitably face the disaster of destroying the country.

At this moment, Li Ye also got an important clue. No one received the eagle letter that Tang Jun sent to Ash Bulai City, and Xin Ying flew back by himself. Something happened in Lae.

Li Ye immediately led eight thousand troops and rushed eastward.
Two days later, Li Ye led his army to Ashbulai City. Ashbulai City was empty. The [-] Tucharian coalition troops guarding the city were missing, but there were puddles of blood everywhere in the city, obviously kneeling. They were beheaded in rows on the ground, which was shocking, and the five thousand shi grains stored in the city were also missing.

"General, the defenders have been found!" Captain Yang Qing rushed forward to report.

When Li Ye came to a ravine behind the city, his expression darkened immediately. The ravine was filled with headless corpses, probably [-] defenders, stripped of their armor and clothes.

"Bury them!" Li Ye sighed.

Li Ye walked up to the top of the city again and looked around. The hills and ravines around Ashbulai City were undulating, and the terrain was very complicated. The defenders of Julan City [-] miles away to the west did not notice any movement, which meant that the Ge Luolu people should Hiding within fifty miles around Ashbury City.

In fact, these Geluolu people are not smart. They bloodbathed the city of Ashibulai and robbed the food, which actually exposed themselves. Tang Jun will definitely be vigilant.

If they didn't have Ah Ling to send the letter, they would not reveal it. Once a big battle broke out, they would suddenly attack Tang Jun from behind, which would definitely inflict heavy damage on Tang Jun. For example, in the two days ago, they stabbed Tang Jun from the back at the most critical moment , then it is likely to be a disastrous defeat for Tang Jun.

However, Sare, the chief of Ge Luolu, will definitely send someone to investigate the battle between the Tang army and the Dashi army. Why didn't he meet the other party's spies?
While he was contemplating, a few scouts came rushing from a distance, rushed to the base of the city and reported loudly, "General Qi, we have found traces of the Ge Luolu people!"

"Where did you find it?"

"Just forty miles to the north, there is a small river over there. We found more than 100 people fetching water by the river. They should be Ge Luolu people."

Li Ye scolded himself for being stupid, Ge Luolu must be hiding near the river, there is a small river to the north, but it doesn't flow through here, Li Ye immediately ordered the whole army to march north.

In fact, Li Ye was also under a lot of pressure. The dry food they carried could only last for six days. If the time on the way back and forth was removed, they only had two days left. If they still couldn't find each other within these two days, they had to return Talas City.

But fortunately, the scouts under his command were able to find the traces of the enemy in just half a day. This is actually another manifestation of Ge Luolu's lack of intelligence. They usually fetch water at night, and sending more than a hundred people to fetch water during the day is simply too careless. .

At dusk, Li Ye led the army to the mouth of the Qushui River, and the scouts who stayed here to monitor the enemy came forward and reported: "We have found the valley where the enemy is hiding, and it is just one mile ahead."

Li Ye asked again: "Is there an enemy sentry at Taniguchi?"

"Two sentries were found, but we didn't do anything because we were afraid of scaring the snake!"

"well done!"

Li Ye praised the scouts for their caution, and he immediately ordered several scouts to kill the two Ge Luolu sentries.

Not long after, news came from the scouts that the enemy sentry had been killed.

Li Ye led 8000 people to the outside of the valley. Li Ye looked at the valley. There were bare mountains on both sides. The mountains were quite steep. The valley was tens of feet wide, and it could be seen that it was quite deep inside.

Li Ye was not in a hurry to act. He ordered several scouts to go up the mountain from the side to check if there were other passages in the valley?

He led the army to wait patiently outside for information.

After waiting until the second watch, the scouts finally came back, and they brought two important pieces of information. First, the valley is not too deep. There are only a few miles ahead, and more than 1 enemy troops are hiding in the innermost part; The valley is a dead end with no second exit.

Li Ye nodded, and immediately ordered: "Command the army to advance into the valley!"

Eight thousand troops entered the valley and went deep into the valley. Why are there 8000 people?There are 4000 people from Li Ye's Suiye Army and Ningyuan Army, and another 1000 Bahana's army, which is the army of Alorie, and [-] Beiting heavy armored infantry and their auxiliary soldiers. Heavy armored infantry cannot wear armor by themselves, and each heavy armored infantry must have an assistant, so there are [-] people.

The width of the canyon is only half a mile at most, and there are steep rock walls on both sides. But just after the army entered the valley, there was a sudden sound of horns on the cliff in front of them, 'Woo-oo-oo-'

Too bad, they were discovered by the enemy's secret sentry.

Li Ye immediately ordered: "The whole army retreats from the valley, and the heavy armored infantry line up at the entrance of the valley in front!"

The army withdrew from the valley, and [-] heavy armored infantry immediately formed a Modao formation in the valley, and Li Ye deployed another [-] crossbowmen.

The night wind was blowing, and the murderous aura was fierce, and the Tang army was ready.
