I have already established my power and prestige, so how did Li Shimin come back to life?

Songzhou, a city that has been baptized by war, has dilapidated city walls. The soldiers on the city walls look at the Tibetan army going away, feeling tired but with a hint of relief.

Finally, they held on. Once the army arrived, the offensive and defensive situation would be completely changed, and the dawn of victory seemed to be just around the corner.

Qin Ruzhao looked into the distance and seemed to see the flags of the reinforcements fluttering in the wind.

In the distant Mobei grassland, the Xueyantuo army was being badly beaten by the Tang army.

The clatter of horses' hooves and the cries of killing were deafening. Fires were blazing everywhere in the Xueyantuo camp, and thick black smoke billowed into the sky.

The Tang army was omnipresent like heavenly soldiers and generals. They had light cavalry that moved as fast as the wind. They rode their horses and shuttled through the enemy army like lightning, and the enemies fell wherever they went.

There is also the famous and feared Black Armor Army, who are like a black steel torrent.

They galloped across the Mobei grasslands as if they were in an empty space. Their neat formations and powerful momentum made the enemy feel terrified.

A spy from the Xueyantuo tribe once accidentally witnessed the majesty of the Black Armor Army. The shiny black armor gleamed coldly in the sunlight, as dazzling as ice spikes in winter.

The sharp weapon in his hand reflected a deadly light in the sunlight, which frightened the spy to death.

He didn't dare to breathe or fart, his body was shaking like a frightened mouse, and his eyes were full of fear.

He sneaked back to the camp, being careful along the way, for fear of being discovered by the Tang army. After returning to the camp, he rushed into the tent and reported the terrible situation to Zhenzhu Khan Yinan.

"Khan, something terrible has happened! The Tang army's Black Armor Army has appeared, they are so terrible!" the spy said breathlessly.

Yi Nan was horrified. "What? The Black Armor Army is coming? What should we do?"

That night, the Xueyantuo tribe set out in panic.

Everyone moved forward in a panic, the team was in disarray.

They tried to stay away from the Black Armor Army, but the further they walked, the closer they felt to danger, as if an invisible hand was pushing them into a trap.

Over the past two months, their range of activities has become smaller and smaller, and the areas originally rich in water and grass have been firmly guarded by the Tang army.

The Tang soldiers held weapons and looked alert.

The Xueyantuo tribe was like a trapped beast, not daring to act rashly for fear of alerting the Tang army. Every slight movement made their hearts beat faster.

Inside the Xueyantuo tent, the candlelight flickered, and the wick occasionally emitted a slight "crackling" sound, reflecting Yinan's face full of worry.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes were full of confusion and fear, and his gaze was wandering.

"Da Tushe, what do you think our Xueyantuo tribe should do now?"

Yi Nan's voice was a little hoarse and full of helplessness, and every word seemed to be squeezed out with difficulty from the depths of his throat.

Datushe is Yinan's eldest son. Looking at his father, he could only smile bitterly, and that smile was full of bitterness.

"Father Khan, the Tang army is everywhere now, and we, the Xueyantuo tribe, only have two options left."

He paused, took a deep breath, and continued, "One option is to surrender to the Tang army, and the other is to advance westward."

Upon hearing this, Yinan slowly closed his eyes, gently shook his head, and murmured, "It's difficult! This is truly a difficult decision! If we surrender, where will our Xueyantuo dignity be? We will become the laughing stock of the grasslands. Going west, the road ahead is unknown, and there are many difficulties and obstacles. How can it be easy?"

Dadushe frowned and said, "Father Khan, we don't have much time to consider. If we hesitate any longer, we may face the disaster of extermination of our clan."

Before Yinan could recover from his tangled emotions, a loud noise suddenly came from outside.

There was the sound of weapons clashing, shouting, and hurried footsteps.
