The Amu River in the Surhan Valley is not too wide, but it is only about eighty feet, but the water flows are very turbulent and turbulent. The deepest part of the water is at least five feet, and the river contains a lot of sand.
It is yellowish brown, and at first glance, it looks a bit like a reduced-scale Yellow River. The difference is that there are many dangerous shoals and canyons in the upper reaches of the Amu River, but most of the lower reaches are shallows, which have not been navigated since ancient times. In addition, nomadic peoples are not good at water,
If you don’t like eating river fish, you will never have fishing boats. There is no doubt that boat building technology can only be described as extremely bad. As for boating technology, it is even worse. Nearly a hundred small boats
Just as I got into the water, before I could row far, several boats fell into the waves. The big food soldiers on the boat fell into the river like dumplings. After only a few struggling in the waves, they were then
The surging river water was completely swallowed up, and the screams before death were so terrifying that it was really terrifying.
"Shake, then shine, don't stop!"
Because of Mustafa Ibnyang's coma in front of the formation yesterday, Amuhe escaped the punishment of defeat. However, as the saying goes, he can escape the first day of the lunar month and the fifteenth day of the year. Amuhe was killed last night
After calling into the central army tent, after a slander, the burden of leading the troops to cross the river this morning fell on him without any surprise. Poor Amuhe is a general who is immediately warrior and has never been in the water in his life.
At this moment, the boat moved and was frightened. He grabbed the boat tightly on the side of the boat. When he saw that the boat was falling down beside him, he was extremely nervous. The hands that grabbed the boat were holding the boat's side showed white marks.
, it is just a responsibility. No matter how afraid it is, it is necessary to pretend to be calm and roar tremblingly.
Skip, and then, let alone Amuhe has issued a death order, even if not, it has entered the torrent. In order to save his life, the soldiers of the Great Food Officer and the soldiers could only try their best to wave the wooden pulp in their hands. Of course
, I can't praise this technique. I'm really not a good idea. Many small boats set off together, but when they arrived at the heart of the river, the formation was already in chaos. Due to collision or improper operation, nearly ten small boats were overturned.
Descended in the river, the soldiers and supplies carried on the ship were naturally buried in the torrent, and the rest were also very chaotic, swept by the water and drifted downstream. After a lot of trouble,
Finally, nearly half of the boats arrived on the other side. Before leaving, there were only less than 500 soldiers left on the other side. However, the character of Amuhe exploded, except for being splashed by the big waves.
Nothing happened.
"Hurry, hurry up, you guys go and check around, and you guys, move quickly, set up a stake, hurry up!"
As soon as his feet stepped onto the land, Amuhe felt at ease in his heart. He ignored the shock of the soldiers. He started to whistle and started to whistle. He sent people around to observe the enemy situation.
He ordered the soldiers to quickly unload the military supplies from the boat. At the same time, he did not forget to order the wooden stakes needed to set up the rope bridge, so he was so busy that he could not touch the ground.
The Dashi Army is not good at water, but it still has the ability to build bridges, and the plan is quite detailed. More than thirty small boats are tied with long ropes at the back, one end is tied to the stern of the boat, and the other end is pulled into the hands of the soldiers on the shore, and crossed the river.
Just untied the rope behind the boat, wait for the piles to stand up in rows, bolt the piles, and then lay wooden boards on the rope bridge. Several suspension bridges can be built. By then, the army will cross the river.
And living is no longer a dream.
"Woo, woo, woo..."
Dreams are undoubtedly beautiful, but unfortunately this beauty is just a colorful soap bubble, very fragile. Before the Dashi Army could set off, a shrill horn sounded in the mountains several miles away.
Even as smoke and dust rolled up, a large group of Tang soldiers were rushing towards them.
"Hurry up, line up along the river and prepare to face the enemy!"
As soon as he saw smoke and dust rising in the distance, although he had already expected that the Tang army would be ambushed, but seeing this, Amuhe's heart still couldn't help but tighten, and he didn't dare to be careless at all.
He roared wildly regardless of it and ordered his troops to stop the bridge project.
Before the Dashi Army crossed the river, it had already predicted that there would be a Tang army ambush on the other side of the river. It had put a lot of effort into preparation. Many small boats specially carried weapons, chain mail, bows and arrows, and large boats.
Shield and other weapons and equipment. At this time, when Amuhe heard the roaring in such an urgent manner, how could he dare to be careless? They put down their work and rushed to the boat carrying weapons, unloading the weapons and equipment with all their strength.
After getting off, he quickly put on his clothes. Finally, he rushed forward to the Tang army and set up a formation to meet the enemy. However, he saw nearly five hundred food soldiers standing in five rows, and the first row was a shield sword hand.
The waist-high shields stand like a wall, followed by two rows of knife hands, and then two rows of archers. All the officers and soldiers are wearing chain mail, and the formation is tight. At first glance, they are about to pass by.
It has a bit of an ancient Roman infantry regiment.
Of course, the formation of the Dashi Army is just similar in shape but has a much worse spirit. After all, this set of the Dashi Army is copied from the Eastern Roman Empire, and the Eastern Front troops are even more copying the rules.
I bought some fake goods from the Western Front troops. The defense ability is a world of difference compared to the infantry legion of the ancient Roman Empire. However, it is still quite effective to defend against light cavalry raids.
Not to mention, the Eastern Front troops have never been chased by tribal troops in the Eastern Front. As for the effectiveness of using them to deal with the Tang cavalry, they have to be tested before they can be found.
"The entire army stopped, the army dismounted from the horse and lined up, and the cavalry held back!"
The valley where the Tang army is located is four miles away from the river bank, and the location where the Dashi Army lands is farther away, but it is not far away, and it is less than five miles in total.
As for the galloping war horse, it was just a quarter of an hour to go, and it soon appeared less than 300 steps away from the Dashi Army. It was the first to stand under the iron-blooded banner and rushed to the horse.
Xiao Sanlang, deputy commander of the Western Expedition Army, saw that the Great Food Army was ready. Xiao Sanlang did not drive the troops directly to attack, but instead stopped the troops and calmly dispatched the generals.
Xiao Sanlang's army did not have many troops, only one battalion of troops took one thousand cavalry, but the total force was more than twice as high as the Dashi Army that crossed the river.
After a row of formations, it was much more spectacular than the Dashi Army. However, when the army was standing in front, there were more than 800 long spears pointing directly at the Dashi Army formation, the black muzzle was full of murderous intent, and
The Thousand Cavalrymen sat steadily on the horse's back, pressing the handle of the knife with their hands. Although they were speechless, a solemn and murderous aura soared into the sky and went straight out of the sky.
"attack!"
As soon as the formation was arranged, Xiao Sanlang didn't hesitate at all. With a wave of his hand, he ordered the orders extremely coldly.
"Dongdongdongdong..."
At a time, the drummers on both sides of each company immediately beat the marching drums. The Tang army, who stood in three rows, began to press forward. Although the speed was not very fast, the momentum was amazing. The neat steps trembled the earth.
As the sand and soil were flying, murderous intent suddenly arose.
"Support the shield, archers prepare!"
In the battle yesterday, Amuhe's troops had already tasted the pain of muskets. Seeing more than 800 Tang soldiers lifted their guns and pushed them forward, some riots broke out in the formation. Seeing this, Amuhe could not
He issued an order without roaring, even though this order had no practical significance. After all, the distance between the two sides was still three hundred steps away, just the pitiful fifty-step range of the bow and arrow in the hands of the Great Food Army.
It is impossible to threaten the formation of the Tang army, but no matter what, orders are orders. Although they are useless, they can still play a role in stabilizing the morale of the army.
Two hundred and fifty steps, two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred and twenty steps...
The Tang army ignored the Dashi Army's full vigilance. They advanced slowly and advanced to about one hundred steps away from the Dashi Army. The drum beats suddenly changed, and the Tang army, who was originally walking in marching, "
Swish, and with the commands of each company command, the three rows of Tang soldiers began a shooting performance.
“Bo, Bo, Bo…”
Facing the Dashi Army that was still not far away, the Tang army officers and soldiers would not be polite at all. Amid the sound of gunfire, the bullets shot towards the Dashi Army like pouring rain. Poor
The Dashi Army was caught off guard and was immediately beaten to chaos. The scimitar was useless, and the bow and arrow were just decorations. The chain mail could not provide much protection. As for the waist-high shield, it could play a role.
If you protect your feet, you can't protect your head. In the face of the Tang army's offensive, it is inevitable that you will suffer heavy casualties.
"Run, rush for me, kill you!"
Seeing that standing in the same place could only be passively beaten. After a long time, the whole army was destined to be wiped out. Amuhe immediately became anxious, roared, and drove the troops forward regardless of the situation, trying to
A close fight with the Tang army.
Amuhe's reaction was very fast, but unfortunately he was just accelerating his death. With the Tang army's speed of fire, let alone the Dashi Army's rushing on two legs, even if they were riding their horses, they wouldn't even think about attacking.
The mu intercepted the formation of the Tang army. If he did not order the attack, he could barely support it for a while. However, in this rush, the casualties and injuries immediately increased. All the Dashi officers and soldiers who dared to step forward were shot and killed.
On the spot, even the main general Amuhe, could not escape death, and was shot into a sieve by a random gun. Some people with a more agile mind fell to the ground in time, which was considered to have escaped the sweep of the bullet.
In less than a cup of tea, the Dashi Army formation was gone. All the officers and soldiers either hugged their heads and lay on the ground to be ostrich. At this point, the Dashi Army that crossed the river was completely
