Cui Wenxiu ignored Helianbo and Bayinzhuo's verbal battle. His eyes remained on the map in front of him. The three Ranger regiments dealt with 60,000 light cavalry active between the Dodun and the Puer. After some means of mobilization, the number of enemy light cavalry may decrease. Cui Wenxiu believed that Bayinzhuo could complete this task. However, the pressure on Helianbo's Second Legion was indeed greater. Once the two parts were found to be divided, both the Puer and the Duodun people knew what the consequences were. They were their only way out. At this time, the main burden was borne by the infantry, and the Rangers could only play a role in cooperation. Therefore, although Helianbo's Second Legion was a heavy infantry corps dominated by Gao Yue people, it had to face the impact of armored cavalry from both directions. This burden might be crushed to death if it was not careful.

Which part should I solve first? The strength of the Dutun people is undoubtedly weaker. Cui Wenxiu is absolutely sure to concentrate troops to solve the Dutun people. However, once heavy troops are gathered to encircle and suppress the Dutun people, if the Puer people see that the situation is not good, they may leave the Dutun people and flee west to meet the Kaman people. This phenomenon is also something that Cui Wenxiu doesn't want to see. Even if the Dutun people are annihilated and the big fish of the Puer people joins forces with the Kaman people, the next battle may still be delayed in a long-term manner.

Then what about solving the Puer people first? The Puer people now have more than 300,000 troops, and it is quite difficult to eat it in one bite. However, if they can solve the problem, the Duodu people have nowhere to go. Even if they meet with the Japanese, it will not have much impact on the battle situation. This is also the most critical point. On this issue, Cui Wenxiu, Helianbo, Song Tianxiong, Jin Zhengyang and Ying Jianming have discussed it many times, but in the end they decided to solve the Puer people first and then free up their hands to deal with the Duodu people. If it really doesn't work, the Duodu people can use the means of defeating them to lose their combat effectiveness and withdraw from the war, and make time to enter the mid-line battle as soon as possible.

On January 28, 702, when the Tang tribe celebrated the Spring Festival, a most tragic cavalry war broke out on the southern plains of central Yun. The Tang Dynasty's 90,000 rangers suddenly penetrated into a narrow area less than 60 miles between the Puer and the Dudun people, and fought an unprecedented cavalry battle with the 30,000 Puer light cavalry and more than 20,000 light cavalry gathered here. Both in terms of quantity and combat effectiveness

The Tang Rangers, which had an absolute advantage, intervened in a sudden attack. The Puer Light Cavalry and the Duoton Light Cavalry suffered a catastrophe. The Tang Rangers, divided into three assault groups, used two assault groups as the main force of the attack, and the other assault group as the flank to attack and clear the troops. The 50,000 light cavalry experienced a cruel six-hour bloody battle, and only less than 8,000 people were able to escape the bad luck. The Tang Rangers also paid more than 20,000 losses.

The raid of the Tang Dynasty Rangers kicked off the Eastern Front Battle. The Second Legion rushed over like thunder, quickly cutting off the connection between the Pooles and the Dodons. The Third Legion, the Ninth Legion and the Thirteenth Legion also quickly dispersed, immediately forming a huge long arc encirclement to lock the unexpected Pooles cluster firmly.

Schiller was watching the map in front of him and motionless. As the commander of the Poole army, he had been paying close attention to the progress of the coalition forces. After the fierce battle at Fanlin City, he realized that the Eastern Front Army led by him had gone a little too fast, and it was obvious that the Tang people had conspiracy in it.

A Vanlin City made the Kaman army fight for a week but did not achieve any worth mentioning results. While despising the Kaman people, Schiller was also surprised by the Tang army's tenacious fighting will. The Kaman people gave up on Jiama and Yulin and tried their best to attack Vanlin. The more than 400,000 troops could fill the Vanlin City with corpses, right? But the Kaman people actually got so bloody that they could not cross the line.

The Western Front Army did not seem to be very smooth. The Ganlan Fortress was firmly pressed against the throat of the Sisro people's marching south like a wedge, which made the plan to show the might of the Sisro people. However, bypassing the Ganlan Fortress to attack Yinchuan City, the Sisro people were often attacked by Rangers protruding from the Ganlan Fortress, which made the Sisro people unable to launch their offensive smoothly, and pulling out the Ganlan Fortress became the only choice of the Sisro people. However, no one had expected that a small Ganlan Fortress would be made into a living iron nail by the Tang army. In order to remove this nail, the Sisro people invested 300,000 troops. For a whole week, the Sisro people threw no less than 80,000 bodies in the Ganlan Fortress. Such a painful loss made the Sisro people heartbroken, and the final outcome was that thousands of Rangers could escape from the fortress.

Although the battle of Ganlan Fortress did not hurt the vitality of the Sithro people, the 80,000 casualties and tens of thousands of wounded people still affected the Sithro people's next plan. The defense strength of Yinchuan Prefecture is no less than that of Ganlan Fortress. If the Sithro people are to be allowed to pay or even exceed the price they have to pay to attack Ganlan Fortress, the Sithro people will never refuse. The Taixuan Prefecture defense fortifications in the east were quite complete before Jiayuguan changed hands, and it has always been the backbone of resisting Sithro and Kaman's southward. Moreover, there are still Tang army rangers stationed at Jiayuguan to harass it. It is also impossible to easily capture it. This puts the Sithro people in a dilemma. They do not want to pay too much, but want to make a breakthrough. Such a thing that has the best of both worlds seems difficult to find.

Schiller didn't know if the Sisluo people were planning to take a gamble now. If the Sisluo people were brave enough, they could get rid of Yinchuan and Taixuan and directly attack Qingyang. Seizing Qingyang could not only shake the morale of the Tang Dynasty and cut off the connection between the Tang territory in the Central Continent and the Tang Dynasty. However, the Sisluo people seemed to be hesitating now, and have not received any war reports so far.

However, Schiller doesn't need to consider such a distant matter now. What he needs to deal with is how to deal with the difficulties faced by the more than 300,000 army he led. Although he realized that the speed of his and Duoton coalition going south was a bit too fast, especially the performance of Yunzhongcheng made him feel even more worried, but when he thought about the fact that he and Duoton coalition had as many as 500,000, and the Tang army on the opposite side were even less powerful than him, he did not expect to swallow the Tang army in one go. As long as he could hold down the Tang army and wait until the Kaman people in the middle line solved Fanlin's southward, he would be considered successful.

But he never expected that the Tang army's appetite was so great that he wanted to swallow the Eastern Route Army in one bite. When the Tang army rangers broke into the compatible headquarters of the Puer Army and the Dudun Army, he did not even realize the Tang army's intentions. It was not until several Tang army units appeared around him that he felt that the situation was a little bad. However, he still didn't believe that the Tang army on the opposite side could eat his more than 300,000 army, especially in the more than 200,000 army of Dudun, which was less than 100 miles away. He just needed to advance eastward to join forces. For more than 500,000 troops, Schiller would never believe that he would not be able to hold on.

However, when the scout confirmed the numbers of the Second Legion and Third Legion of the Tang Army were confirmed, Schiller was also a little worried. It was not surprising that the Ninth Legion of the Tang Army had been stationed in the north of the Tang Dynasty, and the Thirteenth Legion was also transferred from the Indian and De'an to Beiyuan with great fanfare. It was also within the scope of consideration. The Third Legion was always stationed in Zhongzhou. This was adapted from Li Wufeng's Imperial Guard. It had strong combat power and was reasonable to transfer it to the north at a critical moment, but it was a bit uneasy that the number of the Second Legion also appeared here. Although Schiller had never contacted this Second Legion, as the first heavy infantry corps of the Tang Army, it was always the strongest shield to deal with the heavy cavalry of Liberia. At this time, it was obvious that the Tang army had bad intentions.

The Tang army cut off its connection with the Duodun Army, and at this time it was the Second Tang Army that lies between the two armies. Is the Tang army going to divide and surround each other and defeat each? But even if the Tang army has this idea, it should position its target on the weaker Duodun people. Why does the scout reconnaissance intelligence show that the Tang army is carrying out a large-scale movement and the posture is to surround its own army? If the target is really itself, then what is the reliance of the Tang army? Schiller doesn't believe it, it's up to the Tang army now.

These legions can eat themselves, and Dutun people cannot stand by. It is this problem that makes Schiller a dilemma. Now the Tang army is moving west from the north and south, and it looks like it is to build an encirclement. If he throws away the Dutun people and advances straight west, he believes that the Tang army cannot intercept him, but in this way, it is possible to push more than 200,000 Dutun troops into the tiger's mouth. More than 200,000 Dutun troops will definitely not be able to hold on to the Tang army alone. Schiller is very clear about this.
