"Chi Hai!"
After receiving Tuoba Chici's reply, Li Jing and the others gathered around the map of Tuyuhun and searched. Finally, they focused on an inconspicuous spot on the map.
"Chaka Salt Lake!" Meton was slightly stunned. He did not expect that Fu Yun's hiding place turned out to be the famous tourist attraction of later generations, the Chaka Salt Lake, which was known as the Realm of the Sky.
"What's wrong? Merton knows this place. "Li Jing looked at Merton with a faint smile.
Meton nodded. He knew more than that. Chaka Salt Lake was a popular tourist attraction on the Internet in later generations. But here, Meton's focus was not on the scenery, but the rich table salt of Chaka Salt Lake.
"In addition to eliminating the threat of Tuyuhun, the most important task of this war is to find salt lakes to solve the problem of table salt for the people in Guanzhong of the Tang dynasty. Chaka Salt Lake is one of them. It is said that the scenery here is picturesque and beautiful, like a fairyland on earth. Fu Yun is really greedy for enjoyment. He even found such a scenic spot for himself to escape. "
Li Jing nodded slowly and said, "If it weren't for Tuoba Chici's informant, I'm afraid it would take us a long time to find him."
Indeed, although Chaka Salt Lake was not far from Qinghai Lake, it was extremely inconspicuous. The Tang Army did not expect that Fu Yun would hide here.
Merton said, "Although Chaka Salt Lake is small, there are several rivers flowing into it. The surrounding water plants are lush, making it an excellent hiding place. In this case, Tuoba Chici's news is likely to be true."
"It better be true, otherwise I will definitely erase the Tuoba tribe from the grassland," Cheng Yaojin said sternly.
The generals nodded solemnly. The more they looked at the map of Chaka Salt Lake, the more they felt that it was possible. Moreover, Chaka Salt Lake was not a good place to set up an ambush at all. Even if it was a trap, the Tang Army was not afraid.
Li Jing suddenly raised his head and looked around at the generals. "Break camp immediately. Our target is Chaka Salt Lake!"
At this moment, the Tang Army seemed to have been waiting impatiently for a long time. With an order, the army immediately rushed to Chaka Salt Lake.
On a hill 30 miles away from Chaka Salt Lake, a patrolling Tuyuhun cavalryman had just climbed over the hill. He could not help but wipe the sweat off his forehead. Although he did not think that the Tang Army could find this place, he could only deal with it due to the order.
Buzz!
The sound of a bowstring suddenly rang out. A Tuyuhun soldier who was in charge of patrolling fell to the ground. Three Tang Army scouts leaped up and shot two more arrows in a row, mercilessly killing the fleeing warhorse with its head lowered, eliminating any possibility of leaking the information.
One of the scouts stepped forward and confirmed that the Tuyuhun soldier was dead. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. He raised his young face and saw that it was Qin Huaiyu.
The other two were obviously Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin. This time, the three of them had volunteered to investigate the situation of the Red Sea. When the three of them climbed up the hill, lay down under the grass, and looked down, they were immediately overjoyed.
On the hillside, snow-white sheep were grazing in the grass. The shepherdesses were leisurely grazing. From time to time, a faintly discernible song could be heard. It did not feel like they were in a war at all.
In the distance, tents were connected to each other. They could hardly see the border. As a nomadic tribe, herding livestock in a place hundreds of miles away was their daily life. They had long been used to it.
Qin Huaiyu and the other two looked at each other. It seemed that they had found the right place this time.
"Go back and inform the general!" Qin Huaiyu whispered. He quietly retreated down the hill and found his warhorse in a hidden corner. He immediately mounted the horse and went back to inform the general.
…
"In that case! Fu Yun's base is at Chaka Salt Lake. "Li Jing heard Qin Huaiyu and the other two's report and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Qin Huaiyu nodded affirmatively. "Even if Fu Yun is not here, this is definitely the main force of the Tuyuhun."
Wherever the cattle and sheep were, the Tuyuhun would be there! The Tuyuhun could not survive without their cattle and sheep. Based on the number of cattle, sheep, and tents, this was a tribe of at least 200,000 people.
"Congratulations, general! This time, we have caught a big fish! "Cheng Yaojin laughed loudly. They were not afraid of any enemies. The only thing they were afraid of was not having any enemies.
"General, give the order!" The generals could not wait to hear it.
"All troops, attack!" Li Jing shouted. His cold face could not help but reveal a trace of a smile. If the previous three battles only cut a few pieces of the Tuyuhun's flesh, this time, they directly hit the Tuyuhun's vital point. After this battle, the Tuyuhun's vitality would definitely be greatly damaged.
In an instant, the Tang Army no longer covered their tracks. They quickly rushed toward Chaka Salt Lake in a fan-shaped formation.
"Beep!"
When the Tuyuhun scouts found the Tang Army's tracks, the Tang Army was less than 20 miles away from the Tuyuhun's camp. They could not help but feel scared and quickly blew the alarm horn.
"The Tang Army is here!"
In a large flock of snow-white sheep, the shepherdesses' faces were pale and their bodies were trembling. They closed their eyes and accepted their fate. Under Fu Yun's indoctrination, the legend of how cruel the Han people were was was spread.
"Da da da!"
The sound of horse hooves rushed past the flock of sheep. They did not even look at the shepherdesses.
After a long time, the shepherdesses opened their eyes and looked at the Tang Dynasty's cavalry in front of them with a complicated expression. They did not know whether they should feel lucky or angry. They could not help crying bitterly. In this war, the most painful ones were these ordinary herdsmen!
The Tuyuhun cavalry, who had just received the warning, did not have time to assemble on a large scale before the Tang Dynasty's cavalry directly broke into the camp.
"Kill!"
Qin Huaiyu and the other two took the lead. They led a team of 300 people and rushed straight to the thousands of Tuyuhun cavalry that had just assembled. The two sides immediately engaged in a fierce battle.
Then, a large number of Tang Dynasty's cavalry arrived. When the small group of Tuyuhun cavalry saw the overwhelming number of Tang Dynasty's cavalry, they could not help but feel a chill in their hearts. With only a few thousand cavalry, they were afraid that they would only be courting death. Immediately, they turned around and fled without hesitation. It would not be too late to fight after they gathered with the main force.
However, when a group of Tuyuhun cavalry turned around, the other Tuyuhun cavalry could not help but follow suit. A large number of Tuyuhun cavalry fled in front, while the Tang Dynasty's cavalry behind them mounted their horses and chased after them. Even if a group of strong cavalry wanted to turn around and fight back, they were surrounded by a large number of fleeing Tuyuhun cavalry and could only turn around and flee.
This Tuyuhun tribe was like an avalanche. The collapse was out of control. A large number of cavalry chased after them and constantly cut down the fleeing Tuyuhun cavalry.
