"General Zhao, lead the men to attack and defeat the advancing enemy!"
Li Xian always either doesn't do something or does it to the extreme. This time he tried so hard to get Hertzzan's men into a trap. How could he give them a chance to breathe a sigh of relief?
Seeing that Hezzan had sent out more than a thousand death squads, he did not dare to neglect and immediately started to drink loudly.
"Array, array!"
The guard force of the Tang Army was very good at riding, but it was not cavalry, but infantry. The leading general was none other than Ningyuan General Zhao Puchu, who was following Li Xian closely. At this time, when he heard Li Xian's order, Zhao Puchu did not dare to do anything.
Without hesitation, he rode out and shouted to command his subordinates to arrange their troops.
The elite of the Tang army was not comparable to that of the Tubo people. No, before the Tibetan death squads could rush forward, the Tang army had already arranged an assault formation - three hundred crossbowmen in the front row, one hundred Mo swordsmen in the middle, and finally
Five hundred shield-swordsmen, and more than a hundred mounted infantrymen trailed behind the formation for maneuverability.
"Fire the arrow!"
Zhao Puchu was determined to show off in front of Li Xian. He deliberately let the Tibetan infantry roar and rushed to a distance of more than twenty battles. Then he waved the horizontal sword in his hand and issued the attack order. In an instant, he was already ready.
The crossbowmen pulled the triggers one after another, but as the machine's reed sounded continuously, a dense burst of steel arrows roared towards the Tibetan death squads, and in an instant, a dying scream was aroused among the Tibetan rebels.
With the sound of the sound, more than a hundred Tubo soldiers who rushed at the front were shot into hedgehogs. The Tubo death squads, which had no charging formation to speak of, were immediately in chaos, but they did not collapse and were still full of bravery.
They rushed towards the Tang army's formation.
"Mo Dao, get up!"
Seeing the Tibetan death squads coming one after another to kill the generals, Zhao Puchu smiled coldly, raised his sword, and started to drink loudly. With this order, the crossbowmen who were originally in the front row came out of the gaps specially left by the Mo Dao team.
The soldiers withdrew to the back of the formation, while the hundred swordsmen were divided into two groups, standing staggered, with hundreds of sharp long swords raised in unison, forming a sea of knives.
"Cut, advance, turn, cross, sweep, stand..."
As soon as the Tibetan death squads desperately rushed to the front of the Tang army's formation, they were immediately attacked head-on by the Mo Dao troops. As Zhao Puchu kept roaring with a loud voice, the two rows of Mo Dao troops advanced like life harvesters, passing by.
Everywhere, blood and flesh splattered everywhere, stumps of limbs flew everywhere, and just one collision was enough to kill the menacing Tibetan death squads to their core.
"Shield-swordsman, come on, destroy the remaining enemies!"
Before the Tibetan death squads could completely collapse, Zhao Puchu unceremoniously issued the order for the entire army to attack. However, when he saw that the shield swordsmen of the Tang Army who were originally following the Mo Dao formation roared and were surrounded by two flanks, they suddenly tried to escape.
The Tubo rebels who had moved away squeezed back into the center, and were crushed by the meat grinder of the Mo Dao team. The tragic death and injury were really eye-catching. Except for more than a hundred who escaped quickly, the rest were all turned into
Ground meat.
"Surge in, kill the thief, kill the thief, kill the thief!"
This Tibetan death squad was still struggling to its death. On the other side, three thousand elite cavalry from the Tang Army rushing down the hillside had already rushed over. The first cavalryman was Li He, but when he saw him roaring repeatedly, his originally handsome face actually changed.
He was as ferocious as a ferocious god from hell.
"Block, block!"
The cavalry of the Tang Army came so fast that Hertzzan was in despair, and the suicide squad he sent out to act as a suicide attack was stalked and killed by the Tang Army's infantry. When the whole army was in chaos, Hertzzan except
Apart from roaring wildly, there was no way to recover.
It goes without saying that the result was that the Tang army's cavalry had made a mental calculation but not the intention, and that the Tang army's cavalry had smashed into pieces the Tibetan army's formation that had not yet been properly arranged. Then the three battalions of cavalry were divided into three groups.
The Tibetan army, which had a total strength of 15,000, completely collapsed, and countless troops fled in all directions, including Lian He.
Cizan himself also scattered his feet and blended into the chaos of the army and fled.
"Blow the trumpet and withdraw the troops!"
In this battle, Li Xian did not personally go into battle to kill the enemy. Instead, he stood leisurely on the outside of the battlefield, smiling and watching his soldiers slashing and killing the Tibetan rebels. When he saw the smoke and dust rising in the west and south, Li Xian
Showing that this talent was not enough, he issued an order to retreat. Immediately after a burst of shrill horns, the officers and soldiers of each battalion of the Tang Army returned to the team one after another. They simply collected the spoils, especially after collecting the ownerless horses, and the entire army bypassed Mogang and marched all the way.
Heading towards Qinghai Lake...
"Report, Deputy Prime Minister, Hezzan's troops accidentally fell into the trap of the Tang bandits in Mogang and suffered a heavy setback. Nearly half of the entire army suffered casualties. According to investigations, the Tang bandits were fleeing towards Fuluochuan. General Zanpo has led his troops.
We are following closely and begging the deputy prime minister to send troops to surround us." In the royal study room of the old palace in Fuqi City, Gar Qinling, dressed in black, was sitting cross-legged in front of the table, staring at the large map spread out on the table.
Silently thinking about his thoughts, he saw a horseman rushing in with an urgent military report and reporting in an urgent tone.
"Um?"
Upon hearing the news, Gar Qinling suddenly raised his head and murmured suspiciously, but did not ask for details. Instead, he raised his hand and took the military report from the horseman's hand.
, frowned, and looked at it carefully. Finally, the general threw the report on a few coins with some annoyance, rubbed his bulging temples, and after pondering for a moment, he raised his hand and said: "Instruct all ministries not to do this.
Don't be alarmed, and still act according to the original plan. Also, go and summon Agutai, Sosrenci, and Wangrenzan, and let's go!"
"promise!"
Since Gar Qinling had given the order, the reporting horse did not dare to neglect it. After hurriedly responding, he went to invite the three generals ordered by Gar Qinling.
"See Deputy Prime Minister!"
Not long after the horse was reported, three thousand household heads hurried to the study. The tallest one was Agutai, the short and stocky one was Sosrenci, and the one who was as strong as a bear was Wangrentsan. All three of them were
They were fierce generals in the Tubo army, and all of them had bravery that no man could match. In the previous battle at Dafeichuan, these three men were the vanguards, and an extremely large number of Tang army warriors died at their hands.
"No, I have called you here because I have something to do. Let's just say that Li Xian's bravery has won the three armies. General Herzzan has been defeated by him. Is there any of you who dares to fight with him?
A fighter?" Gar Qinling glanced at the three fierce generals and asked calmly.
"I am willing to go!"
"Please give the order to the deputy prime minister. The general will take the head of that little thief before him!"
"At the end of the day, I asked for orders to go there. There will be no victory and no return!"
Agutai and others are people who claim to be brave, so they are not afraid of Li Xian's bravery, and they rush to fight Li Xian.
"Okay, it's rare that these three generals are so heroic. I will give each of you a thousand soldiers. You can rush to the mouth of the Buha River. If the Tang bandits arrive, you will have to fight together. There is no chance.
I ordered Li Xian's son to escape. If there is any violation, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Gar Qinling clapped his hands several times, shouted "Hello", and then followed the tone of the three generals and committed suicide.
"Deputy Prime Minister, what will happen if the Tang thief doesn't come?"
When the three generals heard that there was no room for accommodation in Gar Qinling's order, they were all dumbfounded. After looking at each other, Agutai, the most senior in the army, asked.
"You don't need to worry, I'm sure that guy will reach the mouth of the river without a doubt!"
Gal Qinling smiled confidently and gave an affirmative answer, but did not explain the specific reason.
"The last general will obey the orders of the Deputy Prime Minister."
The three generals met Gar. Qin Ling said so definitely that he had no doubt about it. They all bowed and accepted the promise, each took the command arrow and went to mobilize the troops without mentioning it.
"Little Li Xian, I want to see where you are going to escape this time!" After the three generals left, Gar Qinling sat silently for a while, then suddenly stood up, bit his lower lip, and whispered
He muttered to himself, his voice full of chilling air...
"Report, most of the enemy troops have been found thirty miles east!"
"Report, the bandit army from the west has arrived, less than twenty miles away from our troops!"
"Report, the bandits are approaching in the north, they are still sixteen miles away from our army!"
"Report, the Fulochuan bandits have left the city in large numbers and are on their way to cover up our army!"
…
In just four days, starting from the large-scale dispatch of the Tubo army, the small army led by Li Xian was already deeply encircled. Even though they had won a great battle in Mogang, it was a pity that the strength of the two sides was very different.
The disparity was so great that it did not change the overall battlefield situation. Especially since yesterday, the Tubo army adjusted its deployment again. Soldiers and horses from all walks of life surrounded Li Xian's troops like mad dogs. Even the Tang army had more horses.
, extremely maneuverable, but still unable to escape the fate of being besieged. As time went by, the encirclement became tighter and tighter, leaving little room for Li Xian to move. No, Li Xian's troops ran wildly
One afternoon, as soon as they stopped to have a meal, the Tibetan armies from all walks of life pounced on him like sharks that smelled blood. The horses reported all kinds of news to Li Xian like a flowing stream.
.
Good guy, this is really an ambush from all sides. Hey, it looks like Gar Qinling won't give up until I take down the kid. Li Xian was eating dry food and listening to the enemy's report on the horse.
I didn't forget to write on the ground and marked the positions of the various Tibetan armies on the sketch. It seemed quite relaxed and easy, but in fact I couldn't help but feel a little stirred in my heart. It's just that the city was so deep that I didn't bring it to my face.
——What Li Xian is worried about is not his own safety. To be honest, even if his entire army is destroyed, Li Xian is sure to escape with his extraordinary martial arts. To take a step back, even if he is killed
Captured, as an important hostage, Li Xian himself will never be in danger. Of course, those are the worst-case scenarios. According to Li Xian, the probability of it happening is really not too high. Li Xian dares to come
To take this risk, he already had a comprehensive plan to escape. The reason why he didn't rush to launch it was just waiting for the signal from Anxi. And what really worried Li Xian was the signal from Anxi.
