Does Turkic have national power?

A country that depends on the sky and eats has a gross national power, but Datang is different. Datang belongs to farming civilization. Since ancient times, farming civilization has had one characteristic, that is, grain storage.

Although Datang has just calmed down, if he is playing confrontation and comparing national strength, Datang is definitely worthy of him. At most, he just pretended that he did not develop last year.

As for the Turks, they missed the days when the pasture was the most abundant, so they didn't need to fight. As long as they were trapped in the grassland, they would starve to death.

"Tell the sergeants to take turns to take off their armor and rest, and remember to dry the armor and body before resting."

Looking at the heavy rain like the plum rain in the south of the Yangtze River, Li Wenhao said helplessly.

On the battlefield, it is a big taboo for soldiers to remove their armor, but there is no way, not only those soldiers, but even Li Wenhao himself is a little swollen now, not to mention those soldiers who are not as good as him.

If they are not allowed to dry their battle armor and dry their bodies, the first is that they are prone to wind and cold, which will cause non-combat attrition, and the other is that the battle armor is easy to rust and the body will swell, which will affect the battle.

"Where is Chang Yuchun?"

Li Wenhao asked Jin Yiwei, who was accompanying the army.

"Returning to Your Highness, Chang Yu Chunbu has just entered the Yin Mountain. It is raining so heavily. It may take him some time to cross the Yin Mountain."

"Always pay attention to Chang Yuchun's movements."

Li Wenhao is also very helpless. It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. Such a heavy rain, let alone in ancient times, is difficult even in modern times. With this kind of grassland and heavy rain, it is difficult for modern chariots to deploy, let alone rely on four hooves of the war horse.

As the saying goes, no matter how strong a person is, he can't hold back his flying, can he?

Li Wenhao's side is not bad. After all, food and other things can be supported by waterproofing, but the Turkic cattle and sheep can't do it.

Although cattle and sheep are relatively weather-resistant among livestock, they are animals after all, and the Turks will not treat them as human beings. Maybe those who can't swim may be drowned now, just as their granary is pulling It's unreasonable that there is such a heavy rain by the Er River, and he will not flood.

The heavy rain continued, and no one knew when it would end, and the morale of the two armies was slowly worn down in the rain.

Hebei Road, when did it rain so much?

Li Wenhao looked at the Yinshan Mountain with gloomy eyes. Not surprisingly, it should be because of the Yinshan Mountain that blocked the cumulonimbus clouds here, so every year there will be a protracted downpour here to release the water vapor that has been stagnant for a long time. The aquatic plants here have become lush.

"Your Highness, today our patrol team lost another 40 people, all of them fell into the swamp, not even a single weapon was left behind!"

"Hey!"

Li Wenhao patted the chair angrily, "Tell the brothers to be careful when going out on patrol, try not to ride a horse, tie your body with a rope, try..."

"Try not to go to places that are too remote."

At the end of the story, Li Wenhao was a little bit at a loss for words. Those were all elites who died in the weather.

Time passed, and after more than ten days, the rain finally subsided, and the weather began to clear up. In Li Wenhao's camp, everyone had sharpened their weapons and put on their armor.

They're going to suffocate to death.

They are not afraid of fighting the Turks, and they are not afraid of their death, but this kind of aimless waiting is too painful.

"Your Highness, give the order! The rain has stopped."

"My Xiaogui army is willing to dismount and fight on foot, and be the vanguard to fight the Turks to the death."

Li Junxian, who has always been elegant and handsome, is full of hostility at this time.

This battle is too suffocating.

"Has Chang Yuchun arrived?"

Li Wenhao was not in a hurry to give an order, but asked Qianhu of Jin Yiwei who was accompanying him.

"Returning to Your Highness, General Chang Yuchun has crossed the Yin Mountain and completely blocked the enemy's way back. He is waiting for us."

"Moreover, General Chang Yuchun was still in the Yin Mountains, annihilating an enemy army of 3 people. General Cheng and General Qin also made achievements."

"Not bad!"

Li Wenhao nodded in satisfaction. Chang Yuchun was worthy of being the founding general of the Ming Dynasty. There is no need to doubt his ability.

Just when Li Wenhao was worried about Ran Min, Ran Min gave Li Wenhao a big gift.

If it is Ran Min's ability to command troops, he is definitely not the top among these people under Li Wenhao's command, but there is no doubt that Ran Min is definitely the most suitable for long-distance raids, especially in this kind of bitter cold place, and the main reason is that Ran Min Min is ruthless.

Ran Min went all the way to the west, whenever he encountered an enemy tribe, he would kill them first, regardless of the reason, and the rest of them would each issue a saber, and let them rush to the front of the army and head towards the next tribe of the enemy rushed over.

No matter male, female, old or young, wanting to eat, drink water, or even sleep is a luxury. As long as they fight desperately and use the enemy's head, they can come back and exchange what they want with Ran Min.

For example, they exchange a mouthful of rice soup for their young children, a poor horse for an old man, or an armor for themselves.

All the way west, Ran Min slaughtered more than a dozen tribes. When he finally arrived at the Western Turkic Court, there was no living person on the whole road, and he didn't even have to worry about getting lost, because the corpses on the side of the road were the best. Ran Min really used his actions to prove how he turned Western Turks into a thousand miles of barren land.

Not only did Ran Min's rude and brutal style of play not only did not cause much loss to the beggars under his command, but it made them all greasy.

Now their biggest wish is to go back to Hebei, eat a mouthful of white porridge with stir-fried vegetables, mutton every day, mutton every day, they feel like they have the smell of mutton.

"General, Siyehu's royal court is ahead, north of Mount Kucha."

"Hmph, Si Yehu knows how to choose a place, and chose an oasis with water and grass for himself, but now, this place can only become their cemetery."

"Send someone back to convey a message to His Highness that Ran Min has arrived at Si Yehu's royal court and will launch an attack in the near future. In this battle, Ran Min will definitely kill the Turkic royal court."

"Let them have no women to marry, no animals to reproduce."

"Here!"

"The whole army rests, attack at dawn."

There is no continuous heavy rain here in Ran Min. After sending out several groups of scouts to monitor the royal court in turn, Ran Min ordered the army to rest. Not surprisingly, this is the last battle of this Western Expedition. In this battle, he must bring The begging army under his command did it himself, because those captives were worthless in Ran Min's eyes.

As long as they are used to open the gate of the royal court, the rest will be handed over to Ran Min and the begging army.

If you play well, you can hide all the birds and hide the bows, and cook the rabbits to death.

Chapter 259

At this time, the land outside Yanmen Pass is not enough to support the cavalry battle, and the horses will fall into the mud immediately when they enter, and the horse's legs will be broken in the eyes. Not only the cavalry, but also the infantry fighting is also very difficult and dangerous. After all, it is impossible to tell where It is a swamp that suddenly formed.

Ran Min rode on his horse energetically after leading the army for a night's rest, looked at the Turkic royal court in the distance, and let out a sinister smile.

"Today will be your last battle."

"After this battle, you will be free yourself. After entering the royal court, as much as you can grab is yours. You can take the things and go straight away, or you can continue to kill."

Ran Min said to the Turkic captives who were forcibly driven here.

At the beginning, they resisted and resisted, but as one tribe after another was slaughtered, their humanity gradually became lost.

Moreover, every time Ran Min was in a big battle, he would let those prisoners indulge wantonly. Slowly, under high pressure, under this killing, they completely lost their humanity and became a person who could only kill. , the beast of destruction.

Some people even take pleasure in insulting and abusing the women and children of other tribes. Ran Min has an indulgent attitude towards this. This is why Li Wenhao dared not use Ran Min to fight civil wars.

"Go, open the city gate, and indulge yourself wantonly!"

Then with a wave of the banner, those Turkic people who had lost their humanity turned into tigers and wolves one by one, with hope shining in their eyes and rushed towards the royal court ahead.

"kill!"

A group of people in ragged clothes and red eyes came to the gate of the royal court. They either threw stones, hit them with their bodies, or slashed with knives, and rushed towards the defending soldiers.

But even though they only took a broken knife and didn't even have a complete piece of clothing on their bodies, the fighting power they erupted was astonishing.

They only have the enemy in their eyes, just like hungry wolves. When they see the enemy, they will bite desperately. Even if they have no weapons, even if their hands and feet are cut off, they can still fight if they have mouths and teeth.

This seems to be instinct, and it has been trained to the bone by Ran Min.

Sometimes people are like this. These prisoners are obviously more numerous than the army under Ran Min's command. Obviously Ran Min has given them a chance to pick up their swords, but they don't have the courage to swing a knife at the beggar army, even Not a single look of displeasure.

They just let Ran Min oppress them and enslave them, but they didn't dare to speak.

Not only these prisoners, but even the soldiers under Ran Min's command finally understood the meaning of the begging army.

The word begging is not only to find a way for them to survive, but also declares that if the enemy encounters a begging army, they really can only beg to heaven for a chance to survive.

"rush!"

Seeing that the prisoners had already rushed through the gate, Ran Min rushed out with his horse's belly, galloping along the way, and killed him in a blink of an eye. Only then did the enemy see clearly that there was a big Tang character on the banner.

"Tang people?"

"Tangren, why are you here?"

"Quickly invite the Great Elder!"

A middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes yelled, turned his head and ran inside, and his yell also attracted Ran Min's attention.

"Come two thousand-man teams, follow me!"

With a wave of his double-edged spear, Ran Min led two teams of thousands of people, and followed the man unhurriedly.

"High Priest, come out quickly, is Tang Jun coming to kill you?"

"What Tang army? Did the Great Khan lose?"

An old man hurried out of a gorgeous tent, but just as the old man came out, he saw the shining Tang flag.

"Ya Ali, be careful!"

The man named Ya'ali suddenly turned his head and met Ran Min's double-edged spear.

"I don't know if Siye Hu is defeated or not, but even if he is not defeated now, he will lose sooner or later."

"Remember, the one who kills you is Ran Min, commander of the begging army!"

"And you are the stepping stones for me to become the first champion of the Tang Dynasty"

Zheng!

A head flew up, and Ran Min caught it with his hand, and hung him on the horse's belly.

"Old man, pick up your saber, and I will give you a decent way to die."

"The wolf god bless my people!"

The old man was also a bachelor, and knowing that he could never be Ran Min's opponent, he simply took out a dagger from his bosom and stabbed it directly into his heart.

"Humph!"

"Think that I can let you go?"

Ran Min cut off the old man's head, and took away the dagger that he used to commit suicide. The handle of the dagger was inlaid with various precious gems, and it was not an ordinary object.

"My lord, there is a small group of people running westward."
