Murong Changge led the army to advance rapidly at the foot of the mountain east of Lingling.
They had already walked thirty miles.
He was a little puzzled.
According to regulations, the rangers had to send people back every hour to report on the situation of the exploration ahead. , but now more than an hour has passed, and the Rangers who were sent have not yet sent anyone back to report the situation.
He rode his horse to the side and let the army continue to advance.
He called for his commander En Biluo and said: "It has been more than an hour and the Rangers have not sent anyone to investigate yet.
I am a little worried."
Enbiluo said: "Chief, it stands to reason that there should be no Tang Army reconnaissance posts in this area.
It may be that the rangers have forgotten the time.
Patriarch, don't worry.
I will send another team of rangers to catch up with them and see if anything happens. thing" Murong Changge had a worried look on his face and nodded: "I hope I'm worrying too much.
This is all I can do now.
You go ahead."
"yes" Under Enbiluo's instructions, another group of cavalry galloped forward, kicking up waves of snow.
The Tang army quickly marched to the place where the detective cavalry sentry team killed Murong Changshou's rider.
The snow was full of horse hoof marks and blood.
Twenty corpses were gathered not far away.
Fifteen people were shot by bows and arrows, and five After the man's horse was shot down, Tang Jun rushed over with his horse and killed him with weapons at night.
Zhao Ziliang reined in his horse and raised his hands to stop, and the army quickly stopped advancing.
Wang Can, who was hiding in the nearby mountains and forests, rushed over with more than a dozen horses that stayed overnight, saluted Zhao Ziliang and said: "General, ahead, Murong Changge sent two groups of rangers in total, and I waited for them.
Ambush, I guess he should have guessed that something was wrong by now, and his army is ten miles ahead."
Li Fei Yuanli suggested from the side: "General, why don't we form a formation here and wait for Murong Changge's army to arrive, and then defeat it in one fell swoop?"
Zhao Ziliang asked back: "If Murong Changge and his army stop where they are and we stop here too, wouldn't it allow his army to regain its fighting strength after a long time?"
"Well, the general is not thinking well."
Li Fei Yuanli retreated with an unnatural expression.
Zhao Ziliang immediately said: "Pass an order, the whole army is divided into three armies, left, center and right, all arranged in a forward formation.
Li Siye leads the left army, Wei Meng leads the right army, Huo Kan leads the center army, and other generals and their retinues follow me in the main army formation."
In front, the three armies gathered in twos and twos for a mile, and the whole army approached the enemy in front at normal marching speed."
"promise" The order was quickly conveyed, and the leading generals organized the troops and horses under their control to assemble at their respective positions and formed a forward formation according to Zhao Ziliang's instructions.
Within five minutes, the two thousand men and horses were reorganized and assembled.
Zhao Ziliang gave another order and the army moved forward at normal speed.
At this time, Murong Changge finally discovered that something was wrong.
He sent two groups of rangers in succession but there was no response.
There must be something wrong.
At this time, Enbiluo, who went to investigate in person, came galloping over with a few people and reported breathlessly: "Chief, something bad has happened.
A large group of cavalry from the Tang Army was discovered eight miles ahead.
Judging from the number, there are at least two thousand men and horses.
The two groups of rangers we sent out were probably poisoned by the Tang Army."
"What" Although he had already had a premonition, Murong Changge was still shocked when he heard the news with his own ears.
His face was solemn, and he immediately reined in his horse and raised his hands and shouted: "Send the order to stop advancing.
All units should be organized.
While feeding the horses, let the soldiers Eat and prepare to face the enemy.”
"Yes, patriarch" Murong Changge felt tremendous pressure at this time.
He originally came to attack Suiye City, but he didn't expect that the current situation was completely beyond his plan and out of his control.
This feeling was really uncomfortable.

He I even felt fear.
Why did the cavalry of the Tang Army come out?
Now here, could it be that Tang Jun already knew that he would lead his army to take this road?
Zhao Ziliang is so amazing, right?
Even if someone in Yuegong City tipped off Zhao Ziliang, Zhao Ziliang would not have known that he would take this road.
You must know that this is His impromptu decision was not something he had planned all along.
When he learned that a large army of the Tang Army appeared eight miles ahead, Murong Changge's first reaction was to lead his army back immediately, but he immediately gave up the idea.
Now that the large army was exhausted, they could not run very far before they would be overtaken by the Tang Army's cavalry. , then it will definitely be a big rout, and in the end they will be chased and killed by the Tang army and the entire army will be annihilated.
He thought of leading his army to hide in the mountains and forests immediately, but he quickly rejected this idea again.
This time he planned to attack Suiye City.
In order to increase the marching speed, the army only brought three days of food and grass.
Now one day has passed.
That is to say, the whole army only has one and a half days of food and grass left, and the Tang army can He could set up a formation outside the forest to besiege him, or he could dismount and go into the forest to chase him.
You must know that his men are all string-controllers, and their ability to fight on horseback is not bad, but once they enter the forest, their combat effectiveness will drop to the extreme.
It is definitely not what they always do.
The Tang army was famous for its infantry combat effectiveness, so this idea would not work.
In this way, Murong Changge found that he had only one way left, which was to stop and prepare for war, wait for the Tang army to arrive, and then find a way to delay the decisive battle between the two sides, so that his soldiers would have enough time to eat, feed their horses and Rest, through which the army can regain its combat effectiveness.
Under the leadership of Zhao Ziliang, the Tang army marched six miles in just a few minutes and arrived two kilometers in front of Murong Changge's army formation.
Zhao Ziliang reined in his horse and stopped, raised his hands and shouted: "Stop advancing, the whole army is on standby"
The somewhat scattered formations quickly became orderly again under the command of the generals.
After Li Siye, Wei Meng, Huo Kan and others organized their formations, they all rode to Zhao Ziliang's side.
Zhao Ziliang smiled and said: "This Murong Changge is not too stupid after all.
He knows that he can't run away, so he can only wait here for our army to arrive for the decisive battle."
All the generals nodded.
On the opposite side, Murong Changge was waiting for the Tang army to organize their formation, and his opponent's general Enbiluo said: "Enbiluo, if you go forward to challenge, you are only allowed to fight alone, and you are not allowed to give orders to lead the troops into the formation."
Enbiluo was surprised and said: "Clan leader, this is why if I kill the opponent's general, the opponent's morale will inevitably plummet.
That is the best time for our army to launch an attack."
"Why don't you use your brain?
Our army has been running long distances for a day and a night.
Do you think other soldiers are as energetic as you?
Even if people can stand it, the horses can't withstand the high-intensity sprint.
We need time to let the soldiers and The war horse regains its strength, do you understand?"
Only then did Enbiluo suddenly realize, and immediately said: "I understand, don't worry, clan leader, I will try my best to delay the competition."
"Well, go ahead" They saw Enbiluo galloping towards the Tang army's formation.
When he came to the middle of the two armies, he reined in his horse and stopped.
He pointed his spear in his hand and shouted: "Hey, I am Enbiluo, the general of the Daxi tribe.
Opposite me Who among the Tang army dares to fight with me?"
When the generals of the Tang Army heard such arrogant shouts, everyone was furious.
Li Siye stepped forward from his horse and cupped his hands and said: "General, let me kill that guy."
Zhao Ziliang said: "Murong Changge is really scheming.
He actually wants to delay the decisive battle through this method.
As long as the two sides fight for an hour, his soldiers can recover most of their combat strength.
The longer the delay, the lower their combat effectiveness."
The more you recover” Having said this, he turned to look at the generals: "Now, do you still want to fight against his generals?"
Not even seeing such an obvious delaying strategy, all the generals and commanders were ashamed and lowered their heads.

When Zhao Ziliang saw this, he shouted: "Okay, now is not the time to show off as a hero.
Please cheer up this general."
After saying this, Zhao Ziliang took out his treasured eagle bow and a diamond arrow.
He opened his bow and shot at Enbiluo.
He only heard a "swish" sound.
The arrow shot out very fast.
Although Enbiluo was prepared, he couldn't.
Still not completely dodged, he was hit by an arrow in his shoulder, the arrow nailed into his bone.
A huge force knocked him off the horse, and he fell to the snow a few meters away.
Murong Changge was furious when he saw this.
He rode his horse forward and pointed an iron spear at Zhao Ziliang and cursed: "What kind of guy is there on the other side who didn't send people to fight, but also used bows and arrows to kill my generals?
Isn't it possible that the Tang Dynasty has nothing to fight against?"
will" "Hahaha" Zhao Ziliang laughed, then suddenly stopped and said loudly: "You are Murong Changge.
You actually led people to loot our Datang caravan, and after being discovered, you led people to prepare for a sneak attack on our Suiye City.
You are really audacious, General.
I've been waiting for you for a long time It's time, but it's a pity that you came too slowly, so I had to lead my troops to greet you.
You want to use this clumsy trick to delay our army's attack.
It's okay to deceive others with your little cleverness.
You want to hide it.
General, you are still a bit immature."
After saying that, Zhao Ziliang shouted: "The left wing is ordered to attack."
"Promise" Li Siye agreed, and immediately turned his horse's head back to the left wing and led 600 left-wing cavalry to attack Murong Changge's right wing.
When Murong Changge saw that the Tang army ignored his challenge and directly launched an attack, he knew that his plan to delay the battle had failed.
His face was extremely solemn.
When he saw the Tang army's left wing began to charge towards his right wing, he knew that he could only fight this battle bravely.
At the same time, he was extremely shocked in his heart.
It seemed that Zhao Ziliang was indeed well-deserved, and he had not yet seen his military power. , and saw his strategy first.
"My sons, we are now short of men and horses, and it is impossible to escape.
The Tang army is full of morale and strength, and the horses are fat.
We can't outrun them.
Now we can only fight to the death with the Tang army."
No one responded.
All the soldiers in Daxi's tribe were exhausted.
Most of them were still eating cold and hard dried meat, drinking and grabbing cold white snow and putting it in their mouths.
Most of the soldiers had no time to feed the horses. .
Murong Changge turned around and saw the men behind him, and his heart felt cold.
With the army in this state and with this morale, is it really possible to defeat the Tang army?"
But at this time, Murong Changge could no longer think about it.
The cavalry on the left wing of the Tang Army had already begun to charge.
A tall and strong general of the Tang Army, holding a long-handled Mo Dao, took the lead and rushed towards his right wing.
The opponent's morale was like a rainbow.
He gritted his teeth and ordered: "Send a thousand men to fight against the Tang army's left wing":
