After several encounters, the Dashi Army suffered losses in succession, with as many as 7,000 casualties. How could the Dashi Army, who had always been arrogant, swallow the anger in his heart? Not to mention that the officers and soldiers below were extremely uncomfortable,
Even Mohammed, Su Ben Hussein, a cautious person, had his eyes completely red. The Tang army, who was not willing to let the "flee" go away, and carried the troops behind him and chased him reluctantly.
After chasing, he rushed out about eight miles, and the winding Amu River was approaching.
The Amu River, the river with the longest flow and the largest water volume in Central Asia, is one of the two major water sources in the Aral Sea. It originates from an alpine glacier with an altitude of 5,000 meters in the southeast of the Pamir Plateau. It is more than 5,000 miles long and has a very long flood season.
From March to early October, the river water contains a lot of mud and sand, so it seems extremely turbid, similar to the water of the Yellow River. There are many direct currents along the way, and the terrain changes are complex, including mountain canyons, plains and deserts.
, Rivers often flood, and rivers often change courses, resulting in the formation of many lakes and deep valleys and a large number of impact plains in the entire basin. Oasis abounds where the river passes, and the Surhan Valley is one of them.
It is very famous.
The Surhan Valley is located at the junction of Afghanistan and Uzbekistan today. It is surrounded by mountains and the terrain is flat. More than 200 miles of radius are full of fertile soil. The surging Amu River flows through the middle, dividing the entire valley into almost all sizes.
Two equal pieces have been one of the famous summer pastures in Central Asia since ancient times. The terrain is wide from east to west and narrow from north to south. Especially at the front and back, there are peaks standing on both ends, and the Amu River roaring in and out.
The roads in the valley are just dirt roads three meters wide along the river. It is not easy to enter and exit, and it is a strategic location that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
"Go into the valley!"
It was spring flood, and the Amu River was extremely watery. The waves were rolling on the river surface that was dozens of feet wide, and the turbid waves were surging. The people could not cross at all. Li He obviously had no intention of this, so he led his troops to the riverside.
Instead of trying to cross the river, he roared with horse heads, led the crowd straight up the river and galloped towards the Surhan Valley, which was less than three miles away.
"Chasing, chase after you, the Tang people are killed, and they can't escape!"
Mohamed Suben Hussein was a general on the Eastern Front and had a good understanding of the terrain and landforms of the Eastern Front, especially the Surhan Valley. Before he became famous, he had come here to graz.
After that, it was clear that the terrain in the valley was wide and it was not suitable for ambushing at all. The exit at the north end was far more dangerous and narrow than the imports in the south, making it difficult for the troops to carry out. Once the valley entered, it would not be so easy for the Tang army to escape.
Now, at this good opportunity to avenge revenge, Mohammed Suben Hussein was reluctant to let go, so he shouted wildly and urged the troops to chase him in the back.
"The whole army stopped!"
Mustafa Ibn Yabara, the governor of the Eastern Province of Dashi, was also one of the powerful generals on the Western Front. He led many troops to fight fiercely with the Eastern Roman Empire in his early years. He was promoted to the Governor of the Eastern Province a few years ago.
The terrain and landforms of the area are actually not very familiar, and I have never been to the Surhan Valley. At this time, the troops rushed to the valley. Seeing that the passage into the valley was quite steep, I couldn't help but feel suspicious, although I was worried that I had already chased into the valley.
The safety of Mohammed Suben Hussein's troops did not dare to take risks with the entire army, so he roared and issued an order. After this order, the shrill sound of the horn suddenly started to make a big noise and galloped.
Tens of thousands of soldiers slowly stopped the running horses and stopped quietly at a land less than a hundred feet from the entrance of the valley.
"The order: All departments are lurking, and they are not allowed to act without orders. Those who violate the order will be killed without mercy! Also, send a signal to General Li and turn around and beat him all over the family. Be sure to hurt the thief!"
The main force of the Dashi Army stopped, and the Tang army officers and soldiers who were ambushing everywhere were all stunned. Lin Chengbin, who was wearing disguises and hiding on the top of the highest mountain in the river valley, also had a very cold face. After observing silently for a while,
, lowered the monocular lens in his hand, gritted his teeth, and whispered.
"The whole army obeys the order: turn left and fight back with me!"
Lin Chengbin's order was delivered, and his own messenger shook two small flags and used flag language to pass the orders to each department. Without counting the breath, three not-so-large trees were silently on the top of a mountain flanking the front of Li He's troops.
After shaking for a few times, he fell silently. As soon as he saw this, Li He's face suddenly became cold, just because he had understood the order from the message tree, and his heart was inevitably a little ups and downs.
But it would never affect his determination to act according to the order. He roared without hesitation, led his troops to make a sharp turn, made a bend on the plains in the valley, and resolutely killed a retaliatory attack.
"Kill, entangle the Tang people!"
Mohamed Suben Hussein also noticed the fact that his main force did not follow him into the valley, but he didn't care. The left and right valleys were just a few hundred steps away, and only one charge was needed, the main force
He could rush into the valley in time. Although he was a little surprised at this time, the Tang army came back with a brazen attack, but he refused to show weakness. He shouted and rushed over and attacked him. He instantly strangled the Tang army into a group.
This is the second time the two cavalry fight. In the previous battle, because the Tang army was unable to retain strength, the Dashi Cavalry could barely tie the Tang army, but the Tang army did not
You're more polite. Once the general comes back, he will launch all his strength. With just one encounter, he will kill Mohammed Suben Hussein's troops into a mess. The entire cavalry formation has been in a flash.
On the verge of collapse, if it weren't for Mohammed Suben Hussein's personal guards who forcibly blocked the Tang army's assault momentum, they would be afraid that the entire team would have disbanded. Even so, Dashi
The cavalry can only fight back but no fight back.
"Report, Governor General, the Tang people fought back dyingly. Lord Hussein was leading his troops to fight hard, and the casualties were getting worse. Please send troops immediately to prevent the Tang people from leaving!"
After being attacked so strongly by the Tang army, Mohammed Suben Hussein was unable to bear it anymore. Seeing that the situation of the war was not good, he had to send a messenger out of the valley to seek help.
"Strike!"
Mustafa Ibnyan is a very decisive person. He had previously taken advantage of the gap in the valley where Mohammed Suben Hussein's troops chased into the valley and had already learned about the terrain of the valley from the army's guide.
, I also felt that it was difficult to hide the ambush on a flat land with a radius of more than a hundred miles. Even if there were, it would not be of much effect in front of tens of thousands of troops on our side. In his opinion, the reason why the Tang army fled
Here, it was because the terrain was not familiar, so he fell to death. However, out of caution, he did not rush to send troops into the valley, but wanted to wait and see if the Tang army reacted. He waited until he heard that the Tang army was brave.
Restoration, Mustafa Ibn Yang's heart was settled, and he believed that the Tang army had found that the road ahead was blocked, so he turned around and fought hard. He no longer hesitated. With a command, tens of thousands of troops flocked to him.
He rushed towards the entrance of the valley and rushed into the valley at high speed.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
After a long kill, Li He's troops had an absolute advantage, killing Mohammed Suben Hussein's troops, and it was almost time to add another effort.
When the enemy cavalry was completely defeated, smoke and dust rose from the valley entrance, and countless white-robed cavalry rushed towards him. Li He did not dare to fight again and roared, killing the surrounding food.
The rioters led their troops to rush towards the northern end of the valley.
"My sons, Tangren has nowhere to escape. Chase and kill them all!"
When he saw that his main force had arrived, Mohamed Su Ben Hussein breathed a sigh of relief, and a sense of resentment surged in his heart, just because he had eaten after two fights.
The loss was too great, not counting the losses of Giade Ben Salisa's troops. His more than 20,000 people alone had lost more than 8,000, almost half of the total force.
But the results of the battle were few, and the Tang army, which had only less than 800, had yellow sand stained with blood. The 10-to-1 loss ratio was really shocking. How could Mohammed? Su Ben Hussein swallow
He was so angry that he refused to let the Tang army escape and ran away, and roared and rushed to chase him.
The plains in the Surhan Valley are narrow and long from north to south, and are only less than ten miles wide from east to west. They are divided into two by the Amu River, but the north to south are nearly eighteen miles long. The terrain is extremely flat, and there are no bushes and forests.
Only the green grass was like green, and the horse stepped on it, the speed was amazingly fast. Both sides chased and fled. In just about half an hour, they had already rushed to the place near the northern exit. At this time,
The main forces of the Dashi Army have all entered the valley.
"Boom..."
The narrow and narrow valley is only less than twenty miles away. With the sprint of the running horses, it only took half an hour to go. As the mountains on both sides gradually shrink, the narrow and long terrain is
It was no longer just narrow, but narrow. At this moment, the Tang army had to rush forward gradually slowed down, which gave the Dashi Army the relentless pursuit of the opportunity to come from behind, and it was on both sides.
When the distance between them was close to a hundred steps, a series of loud noises suddenly sounded at the entrance of the southern valley. At the same time, a huge yellow smoke rose into the sky, and the earth shook wildly like a swaying sound.
Indeed, all the soldiers and soldiers of the Great Food were shocked by the sudden loud noise. They turned their horses and looked back at the place where they came from. Everyone's faces were full of shock and confusion. For a moment, they forgot to chase the Tang army forward again.
.
“Accelerate, fast!”
Under the huge shock, the Tang army was naturally affected, and many war horses almost lost control, and the speed of the galloping slowed down. However, the Tang army soldiers did not look back and looked at their origins, at all levels.
Under the supervision of the officers, they all controlled their horses and rushed forward, rushing towards the valley entrance...
