Although Su Dayong, the commander of the second regiment who was ordered to take over the defense, was not able to witness the bravery and heroism of the security platoon due to the fog, he could hear the sporadic explosions and Su Dayong could infer what the general situation was like.
, even though he was calm by nature, he couldn't help but shed tears for it, but it was obviously not an emotional time at this time, so Su Dayong could only suppress the sadness and pain in his heart and shouted loudly.
"Boom, boom..."
After the general gave the order, the officers and soldiers of the fourth battalion who were already ready pulled the fuses of the grenades and threw them hard. More than 300 grenades whizzed downwards, and in an instant, a large number of grenades were rushing towards them.
Deathly light balls exploded in the army, and countless shrapnel flew in all directions, blasting the entire front line of the Dashi into howling like ghosts. In just one blow, nearly two hundred Dashi soldiers were either killed or seriously injured, completely
Under this sudden violent explosion, the charging momentum of the Food Army was instantly disrupted. Many soldiers not only did not dare to rush forward, but instead tried their best to shrink back. Upon seeing this, Aziz Ibn
? Abdul became angry immediately, slashed several timid soldiers to death with his sword, and drove the officers and soldiers to rush towards the Tang Army's forward position again.
"Fire!"
Just when the Dashi Death Squadron finally had the courage to charge forward again, they heard Su Dayong yell, and the Tang Army's volleys of guns rang out. Amidst the roar like exploding beans, the Dashi officers and soldiers who rushed forward rolled over.
He fell to the ground, but the following Dashi officers and soldiers were still rushing upwards desperately.
"Mount the bayonet and attack!"
Although the power of the musket is not small, a small bullet can kill a life. The problem is that the rate of fire is not very fast. After a burst of firing, the Tang army officers and soldiers had no time to continue loading. Seeing this, Su Dayong just
Nengshi roared and led his troops to launch a counterattack. The two iron streams soon collided, and a fierce battle of blood and fire began.
"Command: Second echelon up!"
The effect of the fog on both sides was the same. Just as the Tang army was unable to detect the night attack of the Food Army in advance, Yezid Ibn Abu, who was watching the enemy formation at the Chinese army, was also unable to see clearly the night attack of the night attack army.
As for the actual situation of the battle, based on the frequency of explosions and gunshots, I vaguely guessed that our own death squads should have already reached the mountainside. I was unwilling to let go of this great opportunity to apply pressure, so I gave the order without hesitation.
"Ohh Ohh ohh……"
As soon as the general gave the order, the horn of the military department in Dashi blasted loudly, conveying the order to the second group of death squads who had quietly sneaked to within a hundred steps of the foot of the mountain.
"Order: Artillery fire, blockade the area thirty steps in front of the mountain with all your strength!"
Almost at the same time that the horns of the Dashi Army sounded, Xiao Sanlang, who was standing on the top of the mountain, also calmly gave an order. Immediately, there was a loud sound of horns in the Tang Army formation.
"Boom, boom..."
The sound of the horn was an order, and the artillery of the Tang Army, which had been on standby for a long time, began to show off its power. Six heavy artillery pieces and sixteen infantry cannons fired alternately. The rumbling sound of artillery continued, and the area thirty steps in front of the mountain was blown into a sea of fire.
The mushroom-shaped light group was extremely dazzling, and the death shrapnel swept in all directions, immediately causing chaos in the second wave of soldiers of the Great Food Army who had just charged. Most of the soldiers in the front were killed on the spot, and the officers and soldiers in the back were killed.
Then he was so afraid that he stopped moving forward, and the momentum of the entire attack was almost lost.
"Charge forward, those who retreat will die!"
Just when the second group of the food army's mountain attacking troops was slacking off, the supervising team that came up from behind unceremoniously showed their butcher's knives and killed all the defeated troops who dared to retreat on the spot. Hundreds of soldiers were killed on the spot.
The soldiers supervising the battle were shouting in unison, and the noise was loud. Forced into desperation, the more than two thousand officers and soldiers of the second group of soldiers who attacked the mountain could only risk their lives to attack the Tang army's artillery blockade. By chance, they rushed past.
There are only a little more than half left. Even so, it is undoubtedly good news for Aziz Ibn Abdul's troops who are fighting a hard battle.
"My sons, kill! The reinforcements have arrived, and the Tang bandits will be unable to withstand it any longer. Kill, kill, kill!"
Although he did not see the situation of his own reinforcements with his own eyes, Aziz Ibn Abdul still loudly announced the good news while fighting hard, which immediately caused the decline of the food army.
The morale of the officers and soldiers of the death squads was boosted. Although they could not get rid of the passive situation of being suppressed by the Tang army, they had gradually stabilized their position. The battle situation was obviously not very favorable to the Tang army with fewer troops!
"Report, Your Highness, the second group of death squads are coming to kill us!"
Watching the second group of attacking troops break through the artillery blockade, the general in charge of supervising the battle hurriedly rode back to the central army and reported the news to Yazid Ibn Abu.
"Okay, Nasser, you lead 5,000 cavalry to monitor the enemy in the mountains on the right! Sina, lead your people to block the mountains on the left! Halim, you lead 3,000 elites as the third team, be sure to arrive before dawn
Rush up the mountain..."
The food army had already made sufficient preparations long ago, and all arrangements had been put in place. The reason why they did not dare to move out in large numbers was because they were worried that the movement would be too loud, which would surprise the Tang army and lose the chance to win by surprise. Now, the war has ended
The progress was going smoothly, and Yezid Ibn Abu was so satisfied that he didn't want to wait any longer. He issued a series of orders repeatedly, and started to take down Tianhuang Mountain in one fell swoop.
"No! I will obey your orders!"
After the general's order was issued, the generals gathered in the central military tent did not dare to delay at all, and each agreed to leave. In a moment, the entire Dashi military camp was boiling, with the sound of passwords and horns blaring together, rumbling.
With the sound of horse hoofbeats, groups of large food troops galloped out of the camp and rushed towards various Tang army positions in several directions.
"Send signal!"
As soon as he heard the noise coming from the Dashi military camp, Xiao Sanlang didn't hesitate at all. He waved his hand and drank in a deep voice.
"Boom..., boom!"
As soon as Xiao Sanlang finished speaking, Zhang Qianzi, who had been waiting for a long time, did not dare to neglect. He quickly lit the flare in his hand with a fuse and threw it upwards. However, with a short blast, the flare suddenly accelerated.
It jumped into the air, and immediately exploded into a ball of brilliant red fireworks.
Behind a tall sand beam five miles northwest of the Dashi Army, three thousand elite Tang troops were lined up in a neat formation, standing quietly with their horses. Right in front of the formation was a burly middle-aged general named
Peng, named Tao, also named Zuo Cheng, was one of the three new tiger generals of the Hehuang Army, alongside Wang Yu and Su Yan. He was ordered to assist Xiao Sanlang in defending Tianhuang Mountain, but he was not stationed on the mountain, but was sent to Litianhuang Mountain.
He was lurking in a Gobi desert thirty miles away. At night, he led his troops to sneak into the predetermined ambush location, ready to attack at any time when ordered.
"Report, General, Master Xiao's signal has been sent!"
In the strange silence, a sentry stationed on the top of the sand beam was seen sliding down quickly. He didn't even have time to take a breath before he hurriedly reported.
"The whole army listens to the order and mounts the horse!"
After waiting and waiting, Peng Tao finally got the signal to attack. It was inevitable that Peng Tao would be excited, but he didn't bring it to his face. Instead, he drank calmly.
"Whoosh!"
The Hehuang Army is a great army that has fought hundreds of battles, and it goes without saying that its military quality is very strong. Just after the general issued the order, there was only a muffled sound, and the three thousand soldiers all jumped onto the back of their horses, neatly and uniformly.
"Attack!"
Peng Tao was obviously very satisfied with the military standards displayed by his soldiers, but he did not say much about it. He just waved his hand with a stern face and gave the order to attack in a concise and concise manner. With this order, thousands of soldiers raised their whips in unison.
In an instant, they went from being extremely quiet to running wildly. Three thousand tiger warriors charged up in the heavy fog, heading towards the camp of the Great Food Army like a furious tornado.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
The Dashi Army had already sent out many sentries before setting up camp, and had already checked every corner of the ten-mile radius. At that time, no trace of the enemy was found, so naturally they did not pay special attention to the situation behind them.
, especially during such a massive night attack on Tianhuang Mountain, there were no troops to guard the rear camp, and there were just some regular light and dark sentinel arrangements. At this time, although the enemy who was attacking at high speed had been
The Tang Dynasty cavalry, but apart from sounding the alarm, the few outposts had no resistance at all. They could only flee in all directions while shouting in panic.
"Roar!"
Peng Tao didn't pay attention to those Dashi patrol sentries running wildly, and led his troops straight to the extremely simple Dashi camp, and went straight to the camp gate. However, after hearing Peng Tao's loud roar, the long horse in his hand suddenly
He stabbed it out, and then lifted it with all his strength, lifting the wooden door made of just a dozen wooden sticks into the air.
"Come on, follow me and charge into the enemy camp!"
With a roar, Peng Tao took the lead and rushed into the chaotic back camp of the Dashi Army. Three thousand tiger warriors followed closely behind him, instantly killing the unprepared Dashi soldiers and turning them upside down, leaving a mess of casualties.
"what happened?"
In the central army tent, Yezid Ibn Abu was waiting with great ambition for the good news of capturing Tianhuang Mountain. When he suddenly heard the uproar in the rear camp, his face instantly turned ugly, and he roared in great displeasure.
"Report, Your Highness, the Tang bandits' cavalry have entered our rear camp, their strength is unknown!"
Before Yazid Ibn Abu could send someone to inquire, he saw a frightened general staggering into the Chinese army tent and panting heavily to report.
"What?"
Upon hearing that the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty had entered the rear camp, Yezid Ibn Abu could not sit still. He suddenly stood up, widened his eyes, and exclaimed with disbelief on his face...
