"This Wei Meng, there is no detailed battle report, how would it be to send someone over to tell him?"
Zhao Ziliang couldn't help but shook his head after listening to the report of the soldiers sent by Wei Meng.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Ziliang said to the visitor: "Go back and tell Wei Meng, and ask him to stabilize the order in Helie City as soon as possible and then escort the seized and confiscated trophies, gold, silver and jewelry over.
The remaining Turkic forces in Helie City will definitely The remnants must be kept clean, and anyone who is unwilling to submit will be killed without leaving any future troubles.”
"Nuo" the visitor agreed, bowed and turned around to leave.
Heye City was only thirty miles away from Broken Branch City, so Zhao Ziliang was the first to get the news about Wei Meng.
Wei Meng is an impatient person, he doesn't know a single big character, his mind is relatively simple, and his work is rough.
Zhao Ziliang was originally worried about letting him lead a thousand men alone, but there is one advantage for a person like Wei Meng, that is, he is loyal and brave. , has no ill intentions, he is the kind of person who is straight.
This kind of person is relatively loyal.
You don't have to worry about being betrayed by such a person.
If you want to climb up, you must have someone like this who can risk everything to support you.
Therefore, Zhao Ziliang took the risk to let him lead the army alone.
Let's take a look at him.
Whether he has the potential to become a general, let's test his loyalty.
The closer they got to Broken Leaf City, the harder it was to subdue the Tuqi Shiren.
Zhao Ziliang did not have much time and patience to appease those Tuqi Shiren who were unwilling to surrender.
After attacking Broken Leaf City, he ordered those who were unwilling to surrender to be captured.
All the Tuqishi people were killed and the bodies were buried together.
It took three days on the road, one day to attack the city, and only one day to stabilize Shaizhi City.
On the sixth day, 200 people were left to garrison Shaizhi City, and he led Two thousand two hundred men marched towards General Pei's city.
Later historians have done a lot of research on the origin of General Pei City.
Some people believe that General Pei City was named after Guli Peiluo, the first khan of the Uighur Khanate.
The reason is that Guli Peiluo and the leader Ge Luolu were respectively named.
The Tang Dynasty was divided into left and right Yehu, and later attacked and killed the Turkic Baimei Khan, so the city was built at the mouth of Suiyechuan.
However, the Uighur Khanate of Guli Peluo was in Mobei, on the original territory of the Later Turks, but this place belonged to the territory of the Western Turks, and at this time, Guli Peluo had not established the Uighur Khanate at all.
Now he is just the leader of the Uighur tribe.
Mobei is still ruled by the Post-Turks.
The Geluolu, Basimi and other tribes are still surrendered to the Post-Turks.
It doesn't matter who General Pei is named after, but it has always been a military garrison of the Tang Dynasty, and it is only twenty miles away from Suiye City.
It is eighty miles from Suizhi City to General Pei City.
Although it is only eighty miles, this road is not easy to walk.
The road from Suizhi City to General Pei City is an eighty mile long river valley.
This place The name is Suiye River, and Suiji Castle and General Pei Castle are located at the east and west mouth of Suiye River respectively.
The army set off at nightfall, not long after dinner, and Zhao Ziliang planned to spend the night crossing this dangerous valley that was eighty miles long.
In fact, the cavalry will not be faster than the infantry on such a path.
If they are ambushed, the infantry has a much greater chance of survival than the cavalry, because the infantry can easily find a bunker to hide, while the cavalry may not have hidden yet, and the war horse is He was frightened and ran around, leaving the knight dead on the spot.
When attacking Suizhi City, Zhao Ziliang did not let anyone escape.
All pedestrians and caravans coming from the west were detained.
Therefore, the Tuqi Shiren in General Pei City probably did not know that Suiye City had fallen into the hands of the Tang army. , but had to be on guard, so Zhao Ziliang still sent Wang Can to lead the sentry team thirty miles ahead to investigate before the army set off.
Once anything was found to be wrong, he would immediately notify the main force of the vanguard army thirty miles behind him.
Zhao Ziliang also made full preparations and plans for this adventurous march.
First, he divided the entire vanguard army into three parts.
Each part had basically the same strength.
The distance between each part was only one mile.
Even if the army was ambushed, Only one part will be ambushed, and the other two parts can be attacked He added more troops when needed, and he divided the 600 elite infantry into three parts, which were assigned behind the three cavalry groups.

Once attacked, the infantry could quickly dismount and use shields to resist arrows fired from both sides, or quickly form infantry units.
The attacking formation broke through the obstacles that cut off the connection between the two parts and brought the army into line.
Zhao Ziliang's arrangement did not come in handy.
Tuqishi did not expect that the Tang army would come so quickly.
By the time the Tuqishi army in General Pei's city reacted, the Tang army had already arrived at the city.
In fact, the Tuqishi people had already received the news that the Tang army would meet at the foot of Suiye City on August 15th.
The Fire-Tumbling Immortal had also made preparations and ordered all the towns in the east to strictly defend, but the plan could not keep up with the changes.
Quick, Zhao Ziliang's vanguard army advanced too fast.
It only took three days to capture all four cities to the east, and completely solved all worries.
Moreover, most of the Tuqishi people's attention was focused on the Bakhna Kingdom, Shi Kingdom, and Shi Kingdom in the south, as well as the Tang Army's North Route Army coming from the east, while they paid basically little attention to the South Route Army.
After all, there is no danger between the Zhaowu Three Kingdoms and Tuqishi, and the Tang Army's commander-in-chief is among the North Route Army.
This means that most of the Tuqishi people's attention is attracted by the soldiers and horses coming from these two directions, thus giving The rapid advance of Zhao Ziliang's southern vanguard army created favorable conditions.
Although General Pei City is located at the west exit of Suiye River, it does not completely block the mouth of the river.
The Tang army can still take a small path to bypass it and go to Suiye City, but in this case, they must be careful of General Pei City on their back.
The Tuqi Shi army attacked.
In the early morning of the sixth day of August, the Tang army besieged General Pei City.
Both the east and west gates of General Pei City were besieged by the Tang army.
Turona, the Tuqishi guard of General Pei City, was shocked when he learned about this situation.
He organized troops to strengthen the city wall defense.
On the other hand, several groups of messengers were sent to Suiye City to report the news, but the road to Suiye Town had been cut off by the Tang Army.
Several groups of messengers were intercepted by the Tang Army, and the letters were also intercepted.
On the sixth day of August, Zhao Ziliang did not order the siege.
The soldiers were tired and needed rest, and the siege equipment had not been completed.
Moreover, General Pei used to be a military fortress with tall walls, sufficient fortifications and equipment.
It was not something he could just do casually.
Captured.
For two days in a row, Zhao Ziliang did not take any action.
He only ordered to cut off the connection between General Pei City and Suiye City.
Anyone who came out of General Pei City or Suiye City would be detained and guarded.
If there was any resistance, he would be immediately arrested.
Kill without giving anyone a chance.
On the eighth day of August, from morning to afternoon, Liang Qi and Chu Ge successively led people to complete the rendezvous.
The main tent of the vanguard army.
Liang Qi and Chu Ge bowed to Zhao Ziliang together: "See the general, I will live up to the general's trust and return from completing the mission."
Zhao Ziliang was very happy, raised his hand to signal them all to get up, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, tell me what you gained this time and how much you lost."
Chu Ge first said: "General, my subordinates led 300 people from the north bank of Qingshui Lake and arrived at Dundo City on the third day.
That night, they made contact with our army in the city.
With his cooperation, our army passed through the gap in the city wall.
Entered the city and defended the city lord's mansion and his 200 cavalry, seizing one box of gold and five boxes of silver. , two carts of copper coins, two handfuls of jewelry and jade, and more than 7,000 cattle, sheep, and horses.
In addition, his subordinates took the initiative and gave away the shops and all the houses that originally belonged to the lord of the city to the residents of the city who are now renting them.
Those 200 people After each person received four sheep and a bunch of copper coins, they all surrendered to the general and were willing to serve under him."
"Oh, have you brought those two hundred people?"
Zhao Ziliang asked immediately.
Chu Ge said: "I brought them all.
I sent people to drive the cattle, sheep and horses over, but while they were still on the way, my subordinates brought all the gold, silver, jewelry, jade, and copper coins."

"Very good."
Zhao Ziliang affirmed that Chu Ge had done a good job in this matter, and sighed: "A small city lord of Dunduo City is so rich, which shows how powerful this person is in exploiting the residents of Dunduo City."
Dundo City was originally Chishan City, the seat of the Wusun Kingdom.
After the demise of the Wusun Kingdom, Chishan City also fell into disrepair.
The population of Wusun became smaller and smaller, and the city walls became more and more dilapidated.
In the end, they even collapsed and were made of rammed earth.
Made by compaction.
Zhao Ziliang said and looked at Liang Qi again.
Liang Qi cupped his hands and said: "General, when my subordinates rushed to Frozen City, they were caught by the wolf in Frozen City.
Murong Chenggong found out.
Murong Chenggong closed the city gate tightly and could not get out.
The general could not In order to attack by force, Murong could only resort to ruse.
He asked the lieutenant to lead some people to set up camp and faked the camp of five thousand cavalry and the momentum created by the five thousand cavalry.
Murong successfully defeated the city.
The inner garrison believed it, and under pressure from his subordinates, Murong successfully led his troops to surrender without losing a single soldier.
This time, his subordinates did not seize the spoils of war, nor did they surrender the prisoners.
They even made the decision without permission for Murong to do so.
Chenggong continued to serve as the Wolf Lord of Frozen City and asked the general to convict him.
But this time Murong Chenggong also came with two hundred cavalry and subordinates."
"Why do you want to convict me, General?"
Zhao Ziliang asked rhetorically, and said: "You have done a great job.
Conquering an enemy without fighting is the highest level of military art.
I will remember you for your great contribution.
When this war is over, Rewards, promotions and appointments together.”
Zhao Ziliang's words made others envious.
Before the battle was over, Zhao Ziliang made a promise to Liang Qi, which shows how much he values Liang Qi.
Liang Qi quickly saluted and said: "Thank you so much, general.
I will definitely keep up the good work next time."
"well" After Zhao Ziliang finished speaking, he pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said to the generals on the left and right: "Send an order to Wei Meng, asking him to lead his troops to stop and garrison in Suizhi City.
They are not allowed to leave without my order.
In addition, I have decided to break camp and set off tonight.
Broken Leaf City, and attack Broken Leaf City" "Ah" the generals were shocked when they heard this.
No one expected that Zhao Ziliang would suddenly make such a decision.
It's still early before August 15th, so there's no need to be in such a hurry.
Besides, Suiye City has tens of thousands of cavalrymen.
Cavalry, just two or three thousand of them went to attack Suiye Town.
Isn’t this just a meat bun and a dog?
There is no return.
What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd, General?
Zhao Ziliang's eyes widened: "Stop talking nonsense, after dark, after dinner, the entire army will light torches, break camp and set off straight to Suiye Town, and prepare them all for me, the general."
All the generals had no choice but to salute collectively: "Nuo":
