The immortal of the Tang Dynasty, but the game starts at Xuanwu Gate?

As evening falls, the setting sun gradually disappears, and night is about to descend.

In the loess plateau of Wugong County, amidst the crisscrossing gullies, the entire force of five thousand Mo Dao (a type of long-handled sword) soldiers was hidden.

No one dared to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the approaching Turkic army.

Before the afternoon, scouts reported that the Turkic army had already crossed Jingzhou and was heading straight for Wugong County without stopping.

It is worth mentioning that after Qin Qiong arrived in Wugong County, he immediately contacted the local garrison commander.

Wugong County had its own garrison. Upon hearing that the Turkic army was approaching, Zhang Chong, the garrison commander of Wugong County, dared not delay and hurriedly summoned 1,500 garrison soldiers from Wugong County.

At this moment, they were hiding on the opposite side of the loess plateau. Once the Turkic army crossed over, these soldiers would definitely fight to the death.

They don't even need any motivational injections.

There was no other reason than that the soldiers were all locals, and their families were all in Wugong County. Who would dare not fight to the death?

"They're here!"

Dong Zheng faintly heard the sound of countless hooves, the wind began to pick up, and the sky seemed to darken slightly.

Qin Qiong gripped his longsword tightly, lay prone on the ground, and swung his hand downwards. Everyone wished they could bury their heads in the earth, not daring to make a sound.

Not far from the Loess Plateau, Khan Ashina Duobi looked back and laughed, "Liang Shidu really didn't lie to us. Luo Yi actually let us cross Jingzhou, only making a defensive gesture, without even having the slightest intention to stop us."

"Good, very good!"

Jieli's confidant, Zhishi Sili, laughed loudly: "Khan, isn't this perfect? ​​At this moment, the Tang Dynasty is in constant turmoil, and Li Shimin has just ascended the throne. It is a time when the regime is unstable. Even a border general like Luo Yi has let us do nothing, let alone others."

"Once we cross Wugong County, we can advance straight in and take advantage of the situation to attack Chang'an."

"Not bad!" Jieli twitched his mustache. "In my opinion, it's time to revise the alliance with the Tang Dynasty."

"Once we cross Wugong County, Li Shimin will be like a fish on a chopping board, completely at our mercy. At that time, no matter what demands we make, Li Shimin probably won't dare to refuse."

Zhi Shi Si Li nodded in agreement: "The Khan is right."

"However..." He seemed to remember something, a hint of apprehension flashing in his eyes, "Although this internal turmoil in the Tang Dynasty is a godsend for us, we must be wary of the main force of the Tang army led by Li Jing and others."

"Khan, in my opinion, we should act decisively to prevent Li Jing and his men from becoming desperate and recklessly attacking the border."

They never intended to capture Chang'an when they brought their troops here, because they knew very well that it was practically impossible.

If this were done, it would likely immediately provoke the people of the Tang Dynasty to fight back to the death, and the main force of the Tang army would immediately turn around and deal with them at all costs.

Throughout history, this land has been obsessed with orthodoxy to an almost fanatical degree.

Therefore, Jieli's goal was very clear: they wanted to take advantage of this golden opportunity to subdue the Tang Dynasty, extort a huge sum of money, and force the Tang Dynasty to sign a series of treaties, so that the Tang Dynasty would pay tribute to them every year and become a vassal state of their Turkic Khaganate!

Jieli thought for a moment, glanced back at the army that had traveled a long way, and said, "Let's go, go straight to Wugong County, rest there for one night, and continue our journey tomorrow. We will try to enter Chang'an as quickly as possible and join up with Tuli."

"Yes, Khan." Zhishi Sili pounded his chest with one hand and respectfully agreed, then ordered the army to set off for Wugong County as soon as possible.

Although they had already received Liang Shidu's message, they still dared not be careless when passing through Jingzhou, and basically traveled at full speed. Therefore, both their soldiers and warhorses were already very tired.

We need to rest and recuperate.

Jieli took the lead and led his army straight to Wugong County. When they passed the loess plateau, he did not think much of it.

Liang Shidu had already analyzed it for them. Wugong County's defenses were heavily reliant on Jingzhou. If Luo Yi didn't stop them, Wugong County's flat terrain would be their absolute advantage.

Furthermore, Li Shimin was probably already overwhelmed with various problems at this time, so it was absolutely impossible for him to ambush them in Wugong County.

With Luo Yi not standing in his way, Jieli had completely trusted Liang Shidu.

If he's like this, imagine how his soldiers are.

These Turkic soldiers were exhausted and had only one thought in mind: once they entered the county, they would definitely vent their frustrations.

Behind them, soldiers on the flanks of two large armies were panting heavily. One of them, an older soldier with a long beard, looked at the younger soldier beside him and laughed, "What? Already tired?"

"Yes... a little." The young Turkic soldier wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The bearded veteran patted him on the shoulder: "Little guy, just hang in there, we'll be there soon. When we get to that Wugong County, I'll take you to have some fun."

"What's so fun about it?" the young soldier asked curiously.

"Hahahaha!" The bearded soldier laughed loudly, and many people around him joined in the laughter.

At this moment, another veteran chuckled and licked his lips: "What other kind of fun could it be? Kid, let me tell you, the women of the Tang Dynasty are all incredibly beautiful."

"That ass..." the veteran said, gesturing as he spoke, "and that figure, it's something none of our tanned women can compare to."

"The women of the Tang Dynasty were so tender, you could squeeze water out of them."

"Hehe...Back when I followed the Khan into the Tang Dynasty, I enjoyed myself several times. In particular, there was one time when I met a lady who refused to submit to me even at the cost of her life, saying that she was a married woman."

"Her useless husband fought back desperately, saying that if I dared to lay a finger on his wife, he would haunt me even in death. And guess what happened next?"

"What's wrong?" The young soldier's curiosity was fully aroused, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Hahahaha!" The old soldier smugly smiled, a hint of reminiscence flashing across his face, as if he was still savoring the feeling. "I did it to her right in front of her husband..."

"Ha ha......"

"call out--"

The arrow whistled as it sliced ​​through the air, and the old soldier, who was proudly showing off to the young soldiers, suddenly froze.

An arrow pierced his throat. The old soldier looked down in disbelief, and the next moment, he fell helplessly from his horse.

Do not look down.

The surrounding Turkic soldiers were immediately stunned.

"You son of a bitch, kill him!"

On the left, in the ravine, the garrison commander of Wugong County had bloodshot eyes and was furious. He held a large bow and had a Tang sword at his waist.

"kill!"

The 1,500 soldiers went mad, showing no fear whatsoever. They roared in unison and charged down with reckless abandon.

Their initial surprise attack was not only to draw the attention of the Turkic army and create a more suitable opportunity for the Mo Dao team to launch a surprise attack, but also to protect their homeland behind them.
