Prosperous Tang Dynasty

Chapter 196 Stabbing Khitan People in the Back
Li Fei knew very well that even if he didn't take the opportunity to back the Khitans, the Khitans would soon be defeated by An Lushan.That being the case, why couldn't he take advantage of the Khitan people's fiasco and grab the credit of An Lushan before the Khitans were defeated? An Lushan is disgusting.

Speaking of which, he and An Lushan didn't have any enmity. If there was any enmity, he was the one who wanted to kill An Lushan first. That's why An Lushan hated him later, and it was also dark on his way to Anton. For a moment, he wanted to kill him too.

No matter what, now he and An Lushan still dislike each other after all, and they just want to kill each other.

The Khitan coalition forces are weaker than Anlu Mountain, and they must come out to resist Anlu Mountain. There will never be many cavalry left behind. Therefore, in order to attack quickly, Li Fei is only going to take Lu Xin with him to stab the Khitan people in the back this time. , Wu Sheng and three thousand Anton cavalry attacked.

"This time, Mr. Xianggong will return triumphantly." The eldest grandson Lanxin and Lin Shiyue were helping Li Fei put on the armor, one on the left and one on the right.

Speaking of which, this was the first time Li Fei wore armor in a serious manner, and he was not used to it.

However, the red and yellow armor draped on his body also made Li Fei unspeakably heroic. Seeing Lin Shiyue and eldest grandson Lanxin's beautiful eyes sparkle, Li Fei also felt a sense of heroism filling his heart. .

"I wish I could fight with my husband!" Lin Shiyue was reluctant to just send Li Fei out to fight, and there was an urge in her heart that she wished she could follow Li Fei and fight with Li Fei.

"Stay at home and wait for my husband's triumphant return!" Li Fei was very moved. Before leaving, Li Fei gave Lin Shiyue and eldest grandson Lanxin a hug, and at the same time comforted them, not wanting them to worry too much.

In fact, Li Fei doesn't have to lead the army himself, he can send Lu Xin and Wu Sheng to go.But he needs enough prestige to control Anton. The most important thing for the border military officer is the record. The people of Anton are tough, and the record is also the most direct thing that hits their hearts. They are always short, so Li Fei has to fight!
"Let's go!" Li Fei rode his horse to the front of the three thousand cavalry, waved his hand, and rode his horse to gallop first.

Three thousand iron cavalry followed closely behind Li Fei, stepping on the snow that had not yet started to thaw on the ground, pointing at the direction of Khitan like a sharp sword to kill.

In the territory of the Khitan tribe, the 15 coalition forces of Khitan, Wuluo, and Pugu are fighting a fierce battle with the 20 Tang army in Anlu Mountain.

Although the Khitan and other three coalition forces are all cavalry, and most of the Tang army in Anlu Mountain are infantry, with only [-] cavalry, theoretically speaking, the strength gap between the two sides should be very close.

However, that is without considering the difference in equipment between the two sides. Datang has the best cavalry equipment and infantry equipment in the world today. Before the An Lushan rebellion, the army under his command was also the Datang Army, which owned the entire Datang Empire national support.

The [-] cavalry under An Lushan's command all have a full set of standard equipment of the Tang cavalry. According to the conversion of the Tang cavalry's combat effectiveness of one enemy and three, the [-] cavalry of An Lushan have offset as many as [-] Khitan three. Allied cavalry.

That is to say, the Khitan and other three coalition forces only have another 17 cavalry to fight against the remaining [-] infantry in Anlu Mountain, and the infantry of Datang is not infantry either. Knife array, I really can't think of how the Khitan and other three departments can resist.

Finally, it is worth mentioning that most of the 1 cavalry in Anlu Mountain were composed of Hu people, and the proportion of Han people was very small. In the end, An Lushan asked Tang Xuanzong for the captives of the Xi clan, and Tang Xuanzong really gave them back, plus those who had taken refuge in succession in the past few years.

An Lushan was very ambitious. He blamed the Tang court for the conquest of the Xi people, and pretended that he was the emperor's order.He ate and lived with the [-] Xi captives who came back from Tang Xuanzong for several months. He also made a joke and accepted them as "adopted sons", eight thousand "adopted sons", An Lushan He was really willing to let go, and moved those Xi people so much that they devoted their lives to him.

In general, the 20 Tang troops on Anlu Mountain had the upper hand from the very beginning, pressing down on the 15 cavalry from the Khitan, Wuluo, and Pugu tribes, and they were defeated steadily.

The three parts suffered heavy casualties, but they could only hold on stubbornly. This battle will take at least a few days before the real winner can be determined.Before the real winner, Khitan Huaixiu Khan always had a little bit of luck in his heart. What if he survived in the end and knocked An Lushan back, or even defeated him?
The fantasy is good. At the same time when the Khitan and other three coalition forces were fighting fiercely with An Lushan, the [-] Anton Irons brought by Li Fei also rushed into the Khitan's territory in the dark, like a knife pierced in the dark. knife.

Because it is located in the extension of Daxing'an Mountains, most of the Khitan territory is not a flat grassland, but more hills and hills.

The Khitan people have been rooted in this area since the Southern and Northern Dynasties before the Sui Dynasty, and it has been more than 200 years.The Khitan territory has three cores, also three stone cities, one of which is Chifeng King City.

The stone cities of the Khitan people are not like the cities in the Central Plains, with tall walls and towering gates.Instead, there is only a stone wall that is less than one person high, and then there are four wide entrances and exits, which are convenient for their cavalry to attack and the Khitans in the city to evacuate when they are attacked by a strong enemy.

In fact, as early as midnight, Li Fei waited for three thousand Anton cavalry to arrive at a place only fifty miles away from Chifeng King City.

After resting in a valley in the middle of the night to refresh himself, the sky was bright in the morning, and then went straight to the Chifeng King City.

"Master Jiedu, early morning is definitely the time when the Khitan people relax their vigilance the most. We will be able to break through the Chifeng royal city in one fell swoop." He tightened his grip on the horse, and before he chopped off the Khitan man's head, Lu Xin felt his blood boil.Khan Huaixiu attacked him back then, if he hadn't been rescued by the Jiedu Envoy, he would have died, today he followed the Jiedu Envoy to attack the Khitan's Chifeng King City, and used Khitan's blood to pay back the original blood debt.

"I don't know how many Khitan cavalry the Khitan Khan has left behind in the royal city, so don't be careless." Although it is expected that the Khitan Khan will not leave many cavalry to guard the royal city in order to resist Anlu Mountain with all his strength, but as the commander, Li Fei still Be careful, and don't dare to be careless in the slightest.

The Khitan people were able to fight against the Sui Dynasty and the Great Tang Dynasty and have not been destroyed for more than 160 years. Naturally, it is impossible to be vigilant. It is absolutely impossible to directly enter their Chifeng King City by sneak attack.

Because the Khitans had cavalry patrolling constantly [-] li away from the Chifeng King City, and there were countless sentry posts, so that the sneak attacking enemy could avoid one place, but could not avoid the second place.

Sure enough, when he was within [-] miles of Khitan Chifeng King City, Li Fei saw a few Khitan cavalry rushing towards Chifeng King City in front of them. He presumably wanted to report the news to prepare the Khitan guards in Chifeng King City.

"Chase!" With a wave of Li Fei's hand, a small group of Anton cavalry also slapped their horses desperately, and chased them out at the fastest speed.

The speed of the horse running normally and running fast is different. There are still [-] miles away from the Chifeng King City. If you slap the horse desperately and run at the fastest speed, I am afraid that when you reach the Chifeng King City, the horses sitting on the three thousand cavalry will be killed. I was already tired and lay down, how could I still carry the soldiers to fight a big battle with the Khitans.

A few Khitan cavalry are not worth chasing and killing all three thousand Anton cavalry.

Furthermore, Li Fei didn't care whether the Khitan people in the Chifeng King City knew the news in advance and were prepared, because he was confident that the Khitan Huaixiu Khan's remaining troops would not be able to withstand his [-] An in any case. Dong Tieqi, he can forcibly break through the Khitan Chifeng King City!
