"Great wizard, what should we do now?"
Nu Jie really had no other option, so he had to ask the shaman for help and let him give him guidance.
The great wizard slowly opened his old eyes and said: "Great Khan, I have long asked you to lead the clan across the Dule River and retreat to the north.
You didn't listen.
Now it's okay.
We are the only ones left in the clan.
Now, what I mean now is to cross the river as quickly as possible through the territory of the Tongluo people.
If the Tongluo people don't allow us to cross the road, we won't hesitate to fight them.
We must find a way to rob as many women as possible as soon as possible. , find a safe place to breed our offspring, otherwise our race will not be far away from extinction."
After hearing this, Nu Jie sighed: "I don't know what the great wizard means, and why don't I want to do this?
But look at the great wizard, the sons and daughters have been blinded by hatred.
If they are not allowed to take revenge, I'm afraid they won't do it right away."
Will recognize my identity as Khan" The great wizard was silent for a while and asked: "What do you mean?
Do you really want to seek revenge from Tang Jun?"
Nu Jie thought for a while and said: "Great wizard, Ben Khan wants to lead them to pursue the Tang army that attacked Yazhang, fight a battle, let the anger in the hearts of the sons be vented, and then order to cross the Dule River.
In this way Come on, it should be easier.”
After listening to Nu Jie's words, the great wizard thought about it carefully and found it reasonable.
If these soldiers are not allowed to fight and vent some anger, if it drags on, there will be problems.
Then it will be difficult to control them.
After a fight, After the battle, it would be easy to control them by venting their anger, so he agreed: "Okay, then let's catch up with this Tang army and fight.
Try to control the casualties.
Regardless of winning or losing, immediately lead the army to the north after the battle."
Progress across the Dule River” Nu Jie nodded.
After all, he was the leader.
Although he had hatred in his heart, he was still rational.
He knew that now was not the time for a head-on confrontation with the Tang army, and that retreating north was the most correct choice.
Nu Jie immediately summoned all the captains and centurions under his command to discuss matters.
The discussion had only one topic.
"You have all seen the reaction of the sons.
The hatred between the Tang Army and us cannot be resolved.
We have called you here for discussion.
The main purpose is to discuss what we should do next, whether to seek revenge from the Tang Army or retreat northward."
A centurion stood up and said: "The Great Khan, of course, is seeking revenge from the Tang Army.
This group of Tang Army attacked our tent.
They are our life and death enemies.
We must not let them go.
And when they leave, they take away everything we have."
There are cattle, sheep and horses.
They can’t move fast.
We don’t have any encumbrances now.
We should pursue them at full speed and we should catch up with them soon.”
Nu Jie's men were still sensible people.
A captain stood up and said: "Great Khan, I think we should retreat to the north immediately.
We will talk about revenge later.
Now we are always being led by the Tang army and are restricted everywhere." , falling into the trap at every turn, if you don’t leave, you may be led into a bigger trap by the Tang army.”

The captains and centurions in the tent expressed their views and opinions one after another.
After most of them had been said, Nu Jie said: "What I want to do is to lead my men to hunt down the man who raided our tent first."
Support the Tang army, they can't run far.
After defeating them, I will also give an explanation to the sons and gentlemen, let them vent their anger, and then retreat northward.
What do you think?"
Nu Jie's method is actually a compromise method, which is acceptable to both parties who hold different opinions.
"Okay, since you all agree, let's discuss how to catch up with the Tang army who raided our tent as soon as possible and defeat them, let the sons vent their anger, and then retreat north to avoid Tang Jun's sharp edge.
When we are strong enough, we will come back to seek revenge from Tang Jun."
After some discussion, Nu Jie and his generals quickly came to a conclusion and decision.
They abandoned all unnecessary burdens and marched as quickly as possible to pursue Zhang Shouyu's troops.
Zhang Shouyu, who was marching, quickly received a report from the reconnaissance cavalry that the Xi army was catching up.
"The Xi tribe's army has a total of more than 7,000 people.
The two thousand cavalry in the vanguard are only forty miles away from the rear of our army.
According to the current marching speed of our army, it will only take half a day to catch up with the main force of the Xi tribe's army, which is 5,000 cavalry and the vanguard.
Forty miles behind each other, you can catch up in two quarters of an hour."
Zhang Shouyu listened to the reporter and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, Xi Ren came very quickly to deliver the order.
He abandoned the five thousand cattle and sheep, and the whole army was divided into two.
The first part of five hundred cavalry drove the cattle and sheep to turn south and continue advancing.
The remaining 1,400 riders formed the second part, turning to the southeast, Liu Zhengchen."
"The last general is here" Liu Zhengchen, who was promoted to general by the front line, immediately responded.
"I order you to lead your cavalry battalion as the first part to drive the cattle and sheep to the south and continue advancing at the fastest speed.
Whenever the Xi people are about to catch up, abandon some of the cattle and sheep to slow down the Xi people's pursuit and attack us at any time.
Will report back" Liu Zhengchen immediately said: "The last general will obey your order."
Not long after, Zhang Shouyu and others with 1,400 cavalry watched as Liu Zhengchen led 500 cavalry and drove tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses towards the south quickly, leaving behind a lot of horse dung, cow dung and sheep dung.
Without the burden of cattle and sheep, Zhang Shouyu took the remaining 1,400 cavalry and quickly headed southeast to cover up and sweep away traces.
At the same time, he reported the latest intelligence to Zhao Ziliang with a flying eagle.
When Zhao Ziliang received the letter from Feiying, Boluhan had turned around after four days of fighting and had wiped out all the old, weak, women and children left by the Khitan tribe in the east.
There were no masters on the grassland of hundreds of thousands square kilometers, and this At that time, Zhao Ziliang's central army and Gao Xiuyan's right army also fully restored their combat effectiveness after a few days of rest.
After reading Zhang Shouyu's Flying Eagle Biography, Zhao Ziliang immediately ordered the central army and the right army to advance north and follow the rear of Xi Ren's army.
On this grassland, Liu Zhengchen received orders from Gao Xiuyan from time to time to take the Xi people's army in circles, stop and go, and occasionally drop some cattle and sheep to slow down the Xi people's pursuit.
It was a rare food for the Xi people.
The Xi people did not farm.
The cattle and sheep they had brought with them when they were preparing to attack Zhao Ziliang's Chinese army.
Not a lot.
There was a lot of meat consumed in these days.
As for the cattle and sheep abandoned by the Tang army, the Xiren army caught them all and drove them to pursue Liu Zhengchen's tribe.
They needed these cattle and sheep to provide milk and goat milk, so As a result, the pursuit speed of Xi Ren's army also slowed down, and they never caught up with Liu Zhengchen's troops.
Under a mountain, a reconnaissance cavalry rushed over and reported to Zhang Shouyu: "General Qi, Xi Ren's reconnaissance cavalry has passed.
In two quarters of an hour, Xi Ren's vanguard of two thousand cavalry will arrive.
The follow-up The main force of the Xi people is fifty miles away, and we have two quarters of an hour to fight and evacuate."
Zhang Shouyu's eyes flashed, and he stood up and said: "I have been paralyzing the Xi people for days, and now it is finally time.
Send the order and lay an ambush for everyone.
Without orders, no one is allowed to make any noise or attack without authorization, otherwise he will be executed immediately."
"promise" This is a small basin about three miles long and one mile wide.
The two sides are high and the middle is low.

Zhang Shouyu's 1,400 cavalry are ambushing behind the high ground on both sides.
The Xi Ren Pioneer Army's reconnaissance cavalry has passed by.
After checking the high ground on both sides and finding nothing behind it, I put up a small flag indicating safety before leaving.
After the Xi Ren detectives left, Zhang Shouyu led his ambush army to ambush behind the highlands on both sides of this small basin.
There have been several such small basins in the past few days.
At first, the Xiren Pioneer Army sent people to climb up the highlands on both sides to check, but later they were too lazy to do so.
Someone was sent to check, and Zhang Shouyu took advantage of people's habitual psychology to arrange the ambush.
All preparations for the ambush took a total of three quarters of an hour.
Zhang Shouyu and his 1,400 cavalry army only waited for a quarter of an hour.
Xi Ren's vanguard army of 2,000 troops entered the small basin and entered Zhang Shouyu and others' Within sight.
"It's coming, it's coming!"
A subordinate shouted excitedly.
Zhang Shouyu glared at him, and was so frightened that the subordinate quickly shut up and lowered his head, watching the Xiren vanguard march into the small basin from far to near.
After a while, a captain came to Zhang Shouyu and whispered: "General, can we attack?"
Zhang Shouyu looked at the rear of the Xi Ren's vanguard army, shook his head and said: "Wait a little longer, the Xi Ren's vanguard army has not completely entered the ambush circle.
It will not be too late to wait until all their rear groups have entered the small basin before taking action."
It stands to reason that in this kind of terrain, the leading general must send people to check the situation on the highlands on both sides to prevent enemy ambush.
However, nothing was found the first few times, and the general of the Xiren Pioneer Army also relaxed his vigilance.
No one was sent to investigate again, and this time was no exception.
The Xiren vanguard army walked into this small basin unprepared.
After a cup of tea, the Xiren vanguard finally entered the ambush circle.
Zhang Shouyu realized that the time had come and immediately launched an attack.
A horn sounded.
Zhang Shouyu took the lead in riding down from the high ground.
There were a row of people behind the high ground on both sides.
Row after row of Tang Army cavalry rushed down the hillside, waves of arrows flying towards the Xiren vanguard below like locusts.
"Swish, swish, swish" arrows fell like raindrops, and the Xiren cavalry fell off their horses one by one.
Some made heart-breaking screams, and some fell off their horses and died silently.
"kill" "kill" The shouts of killing came one after another like a wave.
The Xiren soldiers were frightened and were in chaos.
The leading general wanted to gather his troops to organize resistance, but he was flanked on both sides of the army at the same time.
The morale of the army was in chaos, and military orders could not be conveyed to all the troops. , each department does its own thing, which makes it even more chaotic.
By the time the Tang army entered the Xi people's army, the Xi people had already become frightened and had no intention of fighting.
They fled one after another on horseback.
In a short time, they ran out of the narrow basin and trampled on each other, killing countless people.
"Speed up and kill" After Zhang Shouyu's order was issued, the Tang army attacked more rapidly.
Some small groups of Xi people who had just organized to resist were quickly dispersed, and the rest were seriously injured
