Chapter 105: Three Thousand Cavalry, Night Attack on the Turks!

"To subdue the enemy without fighting is the highest realm of warfare!"
Within the Forbidden City, a trace of admiration appeared in Xu Da's eyes.
In war, winning people's hearts is the top priority, while winning battles is secondary!
Attacking the minds is more important than attacking cities!
Every move made by Li Jing embodies great wisdom!
Plan first, then take action!
It is precisely because of this that the Tang army was able to easily defeat strong enemies.
Otherwise, once Xiaoxian dies, even if the Tang army can win, it will inevitably pay a heavy price! 818 Novel
Li Jing, great contributions!
Li Jing, due to his great merits, was awarded the title of Shang Zhuguo!
Shortly afterwards, he once again assisted Prince Zhao of Zhao, Li Xiaogong, and commanded the seven great military commanders including Xu Shiji to go and suppress another anti-royal force, supporting Gong Shi!
Upon seeing the arrival of the Tang army, Gong Shi himself defended Danyang and dispatched generals Feng Huiliang and Chen Zhengtong to lead troops to garrison Dangtu and Qinglin, in order to create a pincer attack situation.
此外，用铁索横亘长江，以阻断水路！
以保万无一失！
见辅公祏防守严密，唐军众将皆向李孝恭进言，当绕过贼军防线，直接奇袭丹阳的辅公祏！
But this proposal was vetoed by Li Jing!
If we do not first break the situation of mutual entanglement between Feng Huiliang and Chen Zhengtong, and directly attack Fugong Tong, in case we fail to capture it for a long time, we will inevitably be caught in a pincer attack!
Under the management of Fugong Shi, Danyang has long become an impregnable fortress, difficult to conquer!
Last time, Li Xiaogong suffered a major defeat for not listening to Li Jing's advice. This time, he finally became smarter and adopted Li Jing's words to first use his main force to defeat Feng Huiliang and create a situation where the enemy's forces are divided!
Li Jing personally led his troops to Dan Yang and captured Fu Gongshi!
At this point, the whole Jiangnan region was completely pacified!
……
The great Han dynasty.
"These are just some achievements against the rebel king. Are they not very significant?"
Looking at the picture on the Tian Dao Golden List, Liu Che frowned.
Li Jing, although skilled in military strategies, his opponents were all rebellious warlords!
He never fought against foreign tribes!
How can he compare to Huo Qubing's opponents, the Xiongnu?
This person is listed before Huo Qubing, which Liu Che is somewhat dissatisfied with!
These anti-kings, after all, are just a group of grassroots heroes, not on the same level as the enemy like the Huns!
Yet, Huo Qubing stared at the Tian Dao Jin Bang with fiery eyes, "Li Jing, being ranked fifth on the Military God List, you must be more than just that."
As the voice fell, the image on the golden list also suddenly changed!
It is already in the snowy northern region!
This is a vast snowy night, devoid of vitality. At first glance, it is a dead silence, apart from the sound of snowflakes falling to the ground, there is no other sound.
However, in the midst of this snowy night, there is actually a cavalry marching!
"Marching in the snow night?"
"This is a major taboo for military!"
In the land of China, many experienced generals are all showing shocked expressions.
In such extremely cold and harsh weather, being in the northern grasslands, once you lose your way, it will be a place where you cannot be buried!
Even some seasoned generals dare not march in such extreme weather!
可李靖，却偏偏这么做了！
Three thousand Tang army cavalry, marching urgently in the snowy night, long-distance rush!
The target is the Turkic camp located in Dingxiang!
However, Jie Li Khan at this time is still unaware of this.
Still slaughtering cattle and sheep in that city, with dancing and singing!
He never dreamed that Li Jing would march in the snow at night, and that three thousand Tang cavalry had quietly approached Dingxiang City!
When Li Jing led his army to launch a surprise attack, the Turks in the city were completely unprepared!
They were caught off guard and killed!
At this moment, the wind and snow became the cover for the Tang army. Jielike Khan had no idea how many soldiers came from the Tang army. In fear, he abandoned his large army and fled!
Li Jing, with only three thousand iron knights, crushed the Turks and captured Dingxiang!
He achieved extraordinary merits!
"Impressive!"
Huo Qubing couldn't help but praise, "With bows and knives glistening in the snow, galloping a thousand miles, three thousand iron knights entered the grasslands, trampling the Turks' main camp!"
Who can replicate such achievements?
Li Jing's specialty is catching people off guard!
However, catching someone off guard once is luck, doing it twice is coincidence, but being able to do it every time is what makes Li Jing terrifying!
……
Great Ming.
"Three thousand cavalry broke the Turks, Li Jing's victory in this battle is enough to become a legend!"
After a moment of silence, Xu Da couldn't help but let out a sigh!
The Turks, one of the grassland overlords, were once as powerful as the Xiongnu, Mongols, and Jin.
With just three thousand cavalry, Li Jing broke through the Tujue's defense and almost captured the Jielike Khan!
Such military tactics have reached an extraordinary realm!
Compared to him, Xu Da feels inferior!
Just when the whole Central Plains was marveling at Li Jing's divine military strategy, the scene on the Golden List of Heavenly Dao suddenly changed!
Upon a second look, Li Jing had already become grey-haired and entered his twilight years!
However, when the Tang Dynasty was invaded by foreign races, Li Shimin was the first to think of Li Jing!
Despite his old age, Li Jing, upon being summoned by Li Shimin, chose to once again take up arms and lead the campaign against the Tuyuhun!
The army marches far and wide, struggling through the wilderness, exhausted and lacking resources.
King Murong Fuyun of the Tuyuhun tribe went even further by burning all the hay on the wilderness to cut off the Tang army's supply of horse fodder!
With a shortage of grass for their horses, the Tang cavalry will find it difficult to sustain themselves in this desert and will likely be forced to retreat!
The generals all advised Li Jing to withdraw troops and wait until the spring grass comes forth before launching another battle!
However, Li Jing believed that speed was of the essence, and the opportunity must not be missed!
King Tuyuhun thought that this plan could force the Tang army to retreat, but he underestimated Li Jing!
Li Jing not only did not retreat, but instead led his army to march urgently, deep into the desert for two thousand miles, and defeated the Tuyuhun army!
Tuyuhun King Murong Fuyun, facing the end of supplies and resources, was killed by his subordinates!
The eldest son, Murong Shun, led the army to surrender to the Tang Dynasty!
Tuyuhun, no longer a threat to the Tang Dynasty from now on!
Li Jing, at the age of over sixty, with half of his body buried, destroyed another country for the Tang Dynasty!
"Su Dingfang, Li Jing, they are all old but still strong men..."
This scene made many generals in China fall into silence.
The fact proves that being a military god has little to do with age!
Even the oldest of old people can still gallop on the battlefield, conquering the world!
They are heroes, destined to demonstrate unrivaled prowess!
Until Li Jing's seventy-fourth year, Li Shimin still intended to send Li Jing to lead an expedition against Goguryeo, but ultimately had to cancel the plan due to Li Jing's severe illness.
Since Li Jing retired from the military, he has been conducting in-depth research on military strategy at home!
He has written military books such as "The Mirror of the Six Armies" and "The Art of War by Viscount Wei" that have been passed down through the ages!
He has influenced a large number of famous Tang generals, who regarded Li Jing's military books as classics!
Xu Shiji, Su Dingfang, Hou Junji, Xue Rengui and other famous Tang military generals were deeply influenced by Li Jing's military books.
It can be said that they were half disciples of Li Jing!
……
Da Qin.
"Li Jing, is still a military strategist?"
On Wang Jian's face, a touch of surprise appeared.
God of War and military strategists are two different fields!
Military strategists are theoretical, while God of War is practical!
Although military strategists write books and establish schools of military strategy, they may not necessarily be formidable in actual combat!
Li Jing, unexpectedly combines both, a military god and a military strategist!
Such character, looking throughout the history of China, how many people can compare? Some people may have died, but they haven't completely perished...
After endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly woke up from the bed. To see the content, please download the AiYue Novel app for ad-free and free reading. The website no longer updates content, but the AiYue Novel app does.
He took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling his chest shaking.
Confused and puzzled, various emotions welled up in his heart.
Where am I?
Then, Shi Yu instinctively looked around, and became even more bewildered.
A single-person dorm room?
Even if he was successfully rescued, he should be in a hospital room now.
And his own body... how could there be no injuries at all?
With doubt in his heart, Shiyu's gaze quickly scanned the room, finally resting on the mirror on the bedside.
The mirror reflected his current appearance, around the age of seventeen or eighteen, looking very handsome.
But the problem is, this is not him! Download the Love Reading Novel app to read content without ads for free.
The previous me was a handsome young man in his twenties with extraordinary appearance, who had been working for some time.
And now, this appearance is nothing more than that of a high school student...
This change made Shi Yu stare in astonishment for a long time.
Don't tell him that the surgery was very successful...
The body and appearance have changed, this is not a matter of surgery or no surgery, but rather a matter of sorcery.
He has completely turned into another person!
Could it be...that I have traveled through time?
In addition to the mirror placed in an obviously bad Feng Shui position at the head of the bed, Shiyu also found three books beside it.
When Shi Yu picked it up and took a look, the title of the book instantly made him speechless.
"A Must-Have Handbook for Novice Animal Breeders"
"Postnatal Care for Pet Animals"
"A Guidebook for Evaluating Beast-Eared Girls of Different Races"
Shi Yu: ???
The first two book titles are somewhat normal, what's the matter with the last one?
"Ahem."
Shi Yu's gaze became serious as he reached out his hand, but his arm quickly stiffened.
Just as he was about to open the third book and see what it was, his brain suddenly throbbed with pain, and a flood of memories came rushing in.
