As the saying goes, "A soldier is a bear, a bear is a bear, a general is a bear, and a bear is a den." This is true at all. As the commander of the army, Pingren Chizan himself fled, how can he expect his soldiers to fight to the death?
As a result, the Ukrainian navy, which was happily chasing the enemy, instantly fell into a desperate situation. More than 5,000 soldiers ran all over the mountains and plains. Their embarrassment was really hard to look at, not to mention others.
, even Li Xian, the designer, did not expect that the Uzbek Navy would be so vulnerable. Before Li Xian's troops could turn around and fight back, the Uzbek Navy had already run away, which made Li Xian very upset.
I feel like I can't laugh or cry - Li Xian was busy for most of the night and finally planned out his tactics. He wanted to hit a goose, but he didn't expect that what came was a rabbit, the timid one at that, but he ran very fast.
, Li Xian really didn’t know what to say.
"Blow the trumpet and withdraw the troops!"
Li Xian led his troops to turn around and attacked Li Hesuo who rushed out of the woods. He only managed to capture a small number of the tails of the Ukrainian navy.
He only killed more than a hundred unlucky soldiers with slow legs. Seeing that the Black Navy was defeated, Li Xian really lost the interest in pursuing the victory and angrily reined in his horse and issued the order to retreat. After a moment,
, when the trumpet sounded loudly, all the Tang army battalions that were hotly pursuing the defeated army rushed back. After quickly reorganizing their formation, they rushed into the distance in a hurry.[]
"Deputy Prime Minister, it's not because the general is careless, but because he was ambushed, the general..."
Pingren Chizan escaped very quickly, but no matter how fast he was, he couldn't catch up with Gar Qinling's order. Before he could collect the scattered soldiers, he was captured on the spot by the guards sent by Gar Qinling. He was tied up with five flowers.
He was escorted to the front of Gal Qinling who then rushed to the battlefield. For the sake of his own life, Pingren Chizan couldn't wait to cry out his injustice as soon as he saw Gal Qinling's face.
"Humph, Pingren Chizan, you know your sin!"
Gar? Qinling sent Pingren Chizan to fight as a vanguard. He had no good intentions. In addition to using him to go to the mines, he also had an extremely hidden plan, which was to kill people with borrowed knives. The Gar family was in Tubo.
The power in the Tubo Empire is extremely powerful, almost to the point of covering the sky with one hand, but it is just barely, and it cannot control the entire Tubo court 100%. There are still many opposition groups among them, and the force to which Pingren Chizan belongs is one of the opposition forces.
One of the strongest men, the fundamental reason why Pingren Chizan was allowed to guard Wuhai, a key pass into and out of the Tibetan hinterland, was to check and balance Gar Qinling's power in Tuyuhun. This was in Gar Qinling's heart.
He had known it for a long time, and had long wanted to take the opportunity to remove Pingren Chizan's eyesore. Now the opportunity had appeared. How could Gar Qinling let it go so easily? How could he have the patience to listen to Pingren Chizan's advice?
He shouted that he was wronged, so he snorted coldly, raised his hand, and scolded him.
"The general has been wronged, Deputy Prime Minister, you can't kill the general. The general has been wronged..."
Pingren Chizan was not stupid. When he heard that Gar Qinling's tone was obviously unkind, he immediately panicked and without caring much, he fell to his knees on the ground and howled wildly.
"What an injustice. I was defeated at Fan'erhekou and lost the important town of Wuhai. I claimed that I was outnumbered, but I believed the truth. Today, I led twice as many troops as the enemy to pursue and kill the remnants of the bandits. However, I escaped without fighting. I am a repeat offender.
Military regulations, how can I tolerate the truth? Come on, behead this guy to show the public." Gar Qinling has a murderous intention, and it is impossible to give Renchizan a way out. Before he can finish his words, he is already livid.
With a face on his face and scolding, several soldiers rushed forward and pushed Pingren Chizan to the ground. However, after seeing the flash of the sword, Pingren Chizan died tragically on the spot with his body and body parts missing.
.
"All armies, listen to the order. If anyone dares to escape from battle, take this as an example! The entire army will attack and capture Li Xian alive!"
Regarding the death of Pingren Chizan, Gar Qinling did not even frown. He looked around at the generals around him and gritted his teeth and issued the general order.
"Second brother, wait a minute, now my army is chasing after me, but the little thief is not in a hurry to escape, but still has the mind to lay an ambush. There must be a deception in it. Now that Khotan is lost, it is difficult to guarantee that the Tang thief will not take advantage of the opportunity to sneak past the Kunlun Pass. What if there is a trap?
If you lie down, our army may be in danger, so I ask my second brother to think twice."
Since Gar Qinling had issued the general order, the generals did not dare to disobey, and each of them loudly agreed to the order. Only Gar Zanpo was very clear-headed and hurriedly gave advice and advice from the side.
"Fourth brother, there is no need to say more. I have made up my mind. I will never return to the army until I capture Li Xian's son!"
Gar Qinling is a resourceful person, so he would not have thought of Gar Zanpo's concerns. However, he has a reason why he has to do it. The problem is that this reason cannot be stated in public. Otherwise, the military morale will be compromised.
I was afraid that his morale would be completely lost because of this, so he had no choice but to glare and scold his brother without giving him any face.
"Second brother, I have asked myself to lead my own troops as the vanguard. Second brother and the governor will follow behind. I think we will be safe."
Seeing what her brother said, Garzampo did not dare to mention the idea of retreating, so she invited herself instead.
"That's very good. Please leave it to my fourth brother."
Gar Qinling actually also suspected that there might be a real conspiracy behind Li Xian's falsehoods, so he would not object to someone exploring the truth first. In addition, he knew that Gar Chanpo was cautious, so there was nothing wrong with him.
Feeling relieved, he nodded in agreement.
"promise!"
Gar Zan Po didn't waste any more words. After she agreed loudly, she immediately ordered all ten thousand soldiers and horses of her headquarters, and aggressively headed towards the direction where Li Xian's troops were fleeing to cover up and kill them. The speed was extremely fast, and they were gone in the blink of an eye.
After rushing more than ten miles away, I saw Li Xian's troops running leisurely in the distance.
"Report, your highness, the dogs are catching up again. The flag is that the leading general is Gar Zanpo, the younger brother of Qinling. He has about 10,000 troops. Your Highness, please tell me clearly." Gar Zanpo's subordinates
The pursuit was extremely turbulent. The Tang Dynasty Rangers scattered around discovered the arrival of the Tibetan army almost immediately. They did not dare to neglect and quickly reported the general's situation to Li Xian, who was located in the central army.
Haha, you still don’t give up, you really think you have too many brothers, don’t you? Well, I’ll help you get rid of one more! Li Xian has long known about Gar Qinling’s perseverance, but
After all, I can't help but feel extremely unhappy in my heart. The reason is very simple. After all, no one wants to be chased by someone as a rabbit, right?
"The whole army obeys the order and rushes to Wangyue Mountain at full speed!"
Unhappy, Li Xian had no intention of using his remnant soldiers to challenge Gar Zanpo's elite troops, and it was impossible for him to stay where he was and wait for the enemy to cover him up, so he hurriedly issued a general order.
, in an instant, the Tang army, which had been running leisurely, began to accelerate, running towards the branch of the Kunlun Mountains in the distance.
"Chase and capture Li Xian alive!"
Gal Zanpo was known as the wise general of Tubo, and he was not a person who earned his reputation in vain. He knew the importance of Li Xian better than the other generals. At this time, seeing that the Tang army was already gaining speed, he did not dare to be negligent.
, shouted loudly, and launched their troops to pursue them. The two cavalry armies started a life-or-death pursuit in the wilderness of Qaidam Basin.
Wangyue Mountain is a mountain peak in a small branch of the northern foothills of the Kunlun Mountains that runs diagonally deep into the Qaidam Basin. It is not very high, with an altitude of less than 3,000 meters. After deducting the terrain, the real height is actually only 200 meters.
It's just a big dirt bag rather than a mountain. The mountain is neither high nor steep. It is extremely ordinary and has no characteristics at all. However, it is the only way to enter and exit Tuyuhun at the Kunlun Mountain Pass. In the mountain
There are many wolves. In previous years, wolves were often seen howling at the moon on the top of the mountain, so it was named Wangyue Mountain. In the early years, the Tuyuhun people built a mountain city on the mountain. Later, because the surrounding water and grass gradually became sparse, it was not suitable for grazing, so it was abandoned and empty.
A low, dilapidated ancient city was left at the foot of the mountain. The surrounding area was sparsely populated, a desolate scene, and a completely dead place. But for Li Xian's troops who had been running for most of the day, this dead place was a life insurance.
land!
"Quick, speed up, enter the city!"
In later generations, Li Xian once visited Wangyue Mountain with his travel companions, and he was quite familiar with the topography of the place. When he saw the flat top of Wangyue Mountain from a distance, Li Xian couldn't help but get excited. Regardless of his shortness of breath, he worked hard.
Lihu drank, and led his troops to use their last remaining strength and rush towards the dilapidated ancient city at full speed.
"The whole army attacked and captured Li Xian alive!"
Having led his troops to catch up with Gar Zanpo, who was only about 400 steps away from the tail of the Tang army, seeing that the Tang army did not go around the city, but rushed straight to the city where even the gate was decayed, she couldn't help but feel a twinge in her heart.
However, in the end, the idea of capturing Li Xian still prevailed, so he issued an assault order regardless of the situation. With this order, the horns sounded ferociously, and the exhausted Tubo cavalry became more energetic.
Each of them stabbed the horse's buttocks with their swords. Relying on the stimulation of bloodletting, they pushed the horse's speed to its peak. In just a few breaths, they had shortened the distance between the two sides. They were chasing the Tang army end to end. Many of them were good at shooting.
The Tubo soldiers took off their bows and arrows and began to attack the lagging Tang army soldiers with mounted fire. However, when they heard the sound of bowstrings, dozens of exhausted Tang army defenders fell off their horses. As soon as this scene appeared, it was immediately exciting.
The Tubo soldiers screamed and charged suddenly faster. The Tang army was in danger!
"Woo, woo woo..."
Facing the imminent victory, the Tubo army was shouting with excitement from top to bottom. Unfortunately, this excitement obviously came too early. Just when the Tubo cavalry was attacking the Tang army's rearguard with cavalry fire,
Hearing a shrill horn sound suddenly exploded in the mountain forest, in an instant, the originally dead mountain forest began to boil. Countless cavalry roared and ran out of the mountain forest, with a flaming red flag with a big "Li" written on it.
Swinging in the wind, the ambush troops of the Tang Army finally revealed their ferocious fangs...
