In my dream of returning to the Tang Dynasty, I snatched Wu Zetian from my lap.

"Report!!"

"Khan, Tang! The Tang army is here! The Tang army is here!!"

Zhenzhu Khan's expression changed drastically: "Is it Li Ji?"

"No, no, it's the Han King's banner, the Han King's banner! I saw it with my own eyes!"

Zhenzhu Khan was stunned for a moment, then felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and sweat instantly welled up from his forehead.

How many people?

"Khan, great, with approximately several thousand men!"

"Quickly, go and ask General Dalun to stop the Tang army!" Zhenzhu Khan shouted.

"yes!!"

However, the Tang army had completely taken control of the war's pace. Before the orders could be relayed, two more loud bangs echoed through the sky.

The deafening battle cries rang out from two other directions: the north and the east, where the two major camps launched their attack, both to support and to encircle the enemy!

Wherever the Tang army went, it swept away everything in its path!

Having seized the initiative, they engaged in a frenzied massacre, charging into enemy lines and setting fires, relentlessly attacking to inflict irreversible damage on the Xueyantuo's camp.

A quarter of an hour earlier, the Xueyantuo camp had suffered an unprecedentedly fierce attack, with countless dead and wounded, and the camp in chaos.

Many soldiers, caught off guard, were even forced to bathe in the Dulu River.

It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that the Xueyantuo army began to organize a defense within the inner perimeter.

However, they could not know that the main force of the Tang army was on that side, and even military orders were difficult to issue because the camp area was in complete chaos, with flames and shouts of killing everywhere.

This resulted in the main force, the Jia-class battalion, not being subjected to full-scale interception.

"Charge!!"

Two dark-skinned men charged out on horseback, one wielding an axe and the other a spear. They were as strong as iron towers, as powerful as Buddhas, and as fierce as Vajras.

Facing the Xueyantuo cavalry defense line, they charged forward fearlessly, and with a bang, the entire force was instantly routed, with men and horses falling to the ground.

Puff puff!

Click!

boom!

A large number of Xueyantuo cavalrymen died violent deaths, some even being smashed into mincemeat.

With the vanguard leading the way, the Jia-class battalion encountered some resistance, but was able to advance unimpeded.

Clad in gleaming armor, Li Yuanchang charged in on horseback, surrounded by thousands of troops. He ignored all the enemy forces around him, his eyes cold and his target clear: the enemy headquarters!

The principle of "capture the king to catch the thief" has remained unchanged since ancient times.

This wasn't the first time he'd done this; he had plenty of experience.

Rumble...

The Tang army advanced rapidly, especially on the west bank, where the entire defensive line was completely breached, and it was too late to call for reinforcements.

Faced with the deteriorating situation, the Xueyantuo people panicked.

"Report!"

"Yes, Khan, the main force of the Tang army has advanced unimpeded and cannot be stopped at all. They are less than two miles away from the camp. Hurry up!" a Xueyantuo general shouted.

"What did you say?!" the elderly Pearl Khan exclaimed excitedly.

"What about generals, both big and small?"

"General Xiao Lun was dragged to the east bank and unable to return to defend, while General Da Lun was surrounded and killed by a group of tall, beast-like Tang soldiers!"

boom!

Upon hearing the devastating news, Zhenzhu Khan was struck dumb and collapsed to the ground.

This victory caught him completely off guard.

That was already the strongest warrior in the Xueyantuo formation!

Before long, Zhenzhu Khan emerged barefoot from the tent, being carried the entire way, his face pale, looking as frantic as a stray dog.

Not only him, but the entire guard of the imperial tent was completely stunned.

The outer camp suffered a crushing defeat, no match for them.

When Li Yuanchang led several hundred men into the camp, it was already deserted, with almost no troops remaining.

"Damn it!" Li Yuanchang cursed. He was already fast enough, but he didn't expect Zhenzhu Khan to run even faster.

This was his tent, and he didn't even intend to hold onto it.

He had Guo Chao bring over a dozen prisoners, while the rest of the army resisted the fierce counterattack of the Xueyantuo people.

"Where has your Khan gone?" Li Yuanchang asked loudly.

The soldiers who could serve here were almost all trusted confidants and key personnel, and some might even be from the royal family of Xueyantuo. Some of them looked at him with fear, and some with hatred, but no one spoke up.

Li Yuanchang didn't have much time for interrogation, so he drew his knife and attacked, using the most violent and direct method to force him to reveal his identity.

Puff puff puff!

Every cut resulted in blood and a corpse falling to the ground.

After killing nine people in succession, the tenth one finally couldn't hold on any longer. Covered in sweat, he shouted in terror, "Go, go north to break through!"

"Mount up!" Li Yuanchang roared, his actions decisive and ruthless.

Rumble!

Hundreds of Tang soldiers continued their pursuit, cutting through the entire enemy lines.

The Xueyantuo soldiers who remained in place became uneasy and began to flee for their lives.

After chasing for three miles, Li Yuanchang finally saw through his binoculars an army rushing northwards in the towering flames, its movements completely different from those of the other Xueyantuo armies.

"It's them!"

"That's them!"

"Northeast corner, they're trying to exploit a gap, hurry!!" Li Yuanchang roared, spurring his horse, and Red Lightning galloped off into the distance.

Behind them, the fierce and elite Tang army shouted, "Kill!!"

boom!

The collisions continued, the heavy warhorses tearing apart numerous tents and knocking over groups of Xueyantuo people.

Their imposing stature, bravery, and sheer numbers, combined with various other factors, made them easy prey, allowing them to be manipulated at will!

Within fifteen minutes, Li Yuanchang was left with only two hundred men, his own guards. The rest remained in the camp area to buy them time.

Meanwhile, he had already pursued and killed Zhenzhu Khan, breaking through the northern battlefield.

This was the attack route of the Yi Battalion, but relying on the elite cavalry of the Yazhang and their large numbers, Zhenzhu Khan successfully broke through.

But he was unable to get rid of Li Yuanchang.

Seeing that the Tang army was pursuing them relentlessly and that there were only two hundred of them, the general under Zhenzhu Khan was furious and led half of his guards, about five hundred men, back on the spot.

"Kill them all!"

"kill!!"

The Xueyantuo cavalry roared, their imposing presence and sheer size making them no ordinary army.

Li Yuanchang keenly sensed that these five hundred men were not to be underestimated, and subconsciously looked to his left and right for Cheng Chuliang and the other man, but the two had already gone into battle.

All he saw was a desolate map that resembled a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex.

"Huang Tu, bring your men and break through their defenses for me!"

"yes!"

Huang Tu shouted and led 108 tribesmen on horseback to the front.

They lined up in a row, each one a model of Xiang Yu, each one a tiger-slayer, each one seemingly possessing the spirit of a tiger. The terrifying pressure instantly overwhelmed the elite Hu cavalry opposite them; their overall level was simply in a league of its own.

"Ah!!" Huangtu let out the unique war cry of the high mountain tribes.

One hundred and seven people roared in unison, unleashing their most primal fighting spirit.

The two collided like meteors, boom!!

The deafening explosion nearly tore at people's eardrums.

The powerful inertia threw even warhorses weighing hundreds of kilograms into the air, not to mention cavalry. Even with armor protection, the force could not be absorbed.

Many elite Xueyantuo guards were thrown into the air, their bones broken and blood gushing out, like flowers scattered by a celestial maiden.

In a single encounter, Huang Tu led a hundred men to shatter the five hundred iron hooves formation, easily clearing a path for Li Yuanchang to pursue.
