Chapter 296 Little Test Knife

Tubo people are famous for their fierce fighting. Growing up on the plateau, they still have a little bit of ignorance. They are brave and weak in the clan. Whoever is more brave and good at fighting will have more status. On the battlefield, if the soldiers come back from the defeated generals, they will be hung with a fox's tail on their faces to show their shame. The soldiers who escaped from the battle are even worse. Except for being sentenced to capital punishment, a family of old and young will be punished as slaves and will never turn over!

Therefore, Tubo's army has always been extremely brave and proud of dying in battle!

At this time, the two armies met on a narrow road. Although they had lost their first opportunity, they did not mean to be afraid and retreat. Turn the horse's head and hit it head-on!

Waiting for them, there is a rain of arrows first!

In a scream, the Tubo people first lost several riders. People and horses trample on it, and the person who hits the arrow and falls to the ground are all dead and desperate. They stepped on the broken limbs of their companions and horses, like red-eyed wolves, and continued to rush forward without fear of death. At the same time, they pulled their bows and shot back.

Tubo people take horses as their home, and their archery is superb. The cavalry led by the striker Xue Rengui also suffered some losses.

The two cavalrymen are facing each other in a blink of an eye.

Xue Rengui took the lead in a horse, like a cheetah running fast, and rushed into the Tubo horse group with lightning speed. The hand raised the halberd and the cold light flashed, and the horse that hit the head-on suddenly broke, and the sky was full of blood!

The Tubo riders were suddenly shocked - this man is so domineering!

But they were not afraid at all. Xue Rengui just rushed in and suddenly surrounded them in all directions. They were all Tubo cavalry!

The machete is like a forest, and the roar is shocking!

Xue Rengui has been practicing martial arts so far, and he is looking forward to such a bloody battlefield. At this moment, he burst into a heroic and murderous spirit. The magic soldier Fang Tianhua halberd in his hand went to sea like a dragon. He danced with cold light all over his body within a foot of his body, and suddenly his hands, feet and flesh and blood flew!

With one move, there is no life within a foot!

"hui——"

Even if people are not timid, the horses are scared! The Tubo people's riding made a frightening hiss, and many horse legs trembled.

There are more than a dozen hundred horse guards who follow him, and why not they are masters who block a hundred? They tried their best to kill Xue Rengui, the general who followed him, and everything was invincible!

The courage of the Tubo people to Xue Rengui was obviously unexpected. With his instinctive reaction, he fought against the enemy for a while. Xue Rengui was already covered with blood rain, and his corpses were like mountains!

"Kill!--" With a deep roar, Xue Ren's noble horse galloped forward like electricity, and abruptly killed a bloody road with Fang Tianhua halberd from the surrounding of the Tubo people!

"Only go forward and don't step back!" This is Qin Mubai's military order!

The main general is strong, and the three military lives!

Under the leadership of Xue Rengui and Baiqi, these pioneers are like ice-breaking iron ships, invincible!

On the other hand, when Yuwen Hongtai heard the sound of killing, his eyes had already turned red because of congestion. In the roar like a lion, he threw away the flag behind him dozens of steps away and entered the siege alone!

Phoenix-winged golden dang, a peerless murder weapon!

One cut and one chopped down, half of the body and a horse's head flew up on the opposite side, and the thick blood splashed more than ten feet high!

"Hahaha! - Behead, behead!"

Yuwen Hongtai laughed like a madman, regardless of the part behind him, and rushed to the place with the most people. The Tubo people were enraged by this arrogant guy, but everyone who had the courage besieged him. Gradually, more and more enemies around him gathered around him, surrounding him.

Yuwen Hongtai is a lively and careless man, but he doesn't care so much. Only this one can kill a person, and he will be happy. On this battlefield, he was the Tubo he cut down, and the ground was red, like the Shura Taoist temple. The songs behind him only cheered and fought hard to enter the siege and joined forces with him.

"General Yuwen, how can you be alone?" The deputy general said eagerly, "Quickly kill the last general and others out of the siege!"

"Afraid of a bird!" Yuwen Hongtai laughed and said, "There are so many people that you can cut off your head at once! - Kill!"

After the roar, he killed into the crowd again.

The generals smiled bitterly and had no choice but to kill him together.

The Tubo people were attacked by the two fierce generals, and the position suddenly became a little confused. The enemy facing Qin Mubai on the other side is relatively thin.

This group of Tubo cavalry was about four or five thousand people, but there were nearly 10,000 cattle, sheep and horses, all of which were robbed from nearby pastures. Together with the war, the cattle, sheep and horses were left unattended and ran around in panic.

In the vast flat land, cattle and sheep were suddenly covered with smoke and dust, and the shouting sound shook the sky!

Qin Mubai has long been hot-blooded, and his whole body is dry and hot! Although I have been in the army for a long time, it's not that I haven't seen the scene of killing, but it's really the first time for me to rush into battle in person.

The fire cloud horse is worthy of being a magic horse. When it goes to the battlefield, it is more excited than anyone else. When galloping at full speed, people and horses are like a whirlwind!

When the tiger-headed golden gun pierced the chest of a Tubo for the first time, Qin Mubai felt that he was a little lost!

Lost in the madness of killing and the stimulation of blood!

"Ah--"

There was a roar like a beast in his throat. His strength, which was different from ordinary people, burst out and he tried his best to pick it. The Tubo who was pierced through his chest was lifted out of the mount by the air, and then fell heavily into the Tubo rider group!

"The major general is powerful!" The soldiers cheered loudly, and morale soared!

"Kill--" A roar sounded behind Qin Mubai, and all the soldiers tried their best to move forward and kill the enemy with all their strength!

The three fierce generals led three groups of the most elite Tang cavalry, like three awls plunged into the Tubo cavalry group, struggling forward, killing only the enemy in front of them, regardless of the enemy's horse behind them.

The Tubo people first lost their opportunity. They couldn't exert the impact advantage of their cavalry without rushing up, and they couldn't stop the three fierce generals. They were almost penetrated through the array like sugar-coated haws by these three cavalry!

This is the cavalry tactic commonly used by the Tang cavalry. When Li Shimin broke through Dou Jiande's 100,000 army with 5,000 iron horses at the Hulao Pass, he used this kind of tactics - he took the fierce general and elite as the spearhead of the whole army, pierced the enemy's array with all his strength, and first messed up the enemy's position; if he met the enemy general, he would capture the thief and captured the king first!

In Li Jing's military book, the detailed process of this battle is fully recorded, and this simple and practical cavalry method is described in great detail. Today, Qin Mubai used this set of tactics according to local conditions, and the effect was extremely obvious!

Xue Rengui is obviously the spearhead of these three cavalry! He is like the tip of this spear, plunged into the hinterland of the Tubo cavalry, and no one can stop it!

With a halberd, a head flew up in front of him, and blood rushed up like pouring all over the sky. The Tubo people next to him suddenly screamed and roared words that they didn't understand.

But Xue Rengui saw it from their frightened eyes that he killed the enemy's main general just now!

Sure enough, next to it is the flag of the general flag!

Xue Rengui roared and tried his best to pat the horse. The white horse's silver robe was like snow silver into the water and stirred up a wild wave. His hand rose and fell. The Tubo horse fell to the sky. The flag fell to the ground, and there was also an arm on the flagpole!

"General Shenwei, kill the enemy general!"

The soldiers who followed him roared loudly, and their morale was high!

The general will be the bone of the army. If the general is lost, the battle of the Tubo people will be more chaotic. The current battlefield is like three sharp cones piercing into the tofu, and there is no resistance.

At this time, the pioneer Xue Rengui's song had already killed the Tubo army back and forth. He immediately pulled back and pointed to the halberd - "Fight back - kill!"

The army turned the horse's head, and then turned back to rush.

The battle method of Qianqi's hole penetration was used by Xue Rengui!

The three cavalry were all the same back and forth. The Tubo lost the main general and the battle became more and more chaotic. Under the strong sprint of the three groups of cavalry, they involuntarily dispersed to both sides, and the battlefield expanded.

In and out of a few times, the Tubo cavalry group has become a plate of scattered sand. Under the leadership of the main general, the three groups of Tang cavalry are still twisted into a line, like a gun stabbing in the enemy group to sprint.

Such a tactic was originally used to win more with less. Our army entered the enemy and only looked forward without asking about the left and right and behind us, so the enemy we faced was always the one in front of us. Even if the enemy has the advantage of the number of people, there is no way to play. However, this is extremely demanding of the bravery of the general who is in charge - it must be invincible!

Obviously, Xue Rengui is such a general!

......

The battle lasted for more than an hour. Although Qin Mubai encountered many enemy troops, the battle was not as tragic as Xue Rengui's side, but he also had no less than ten enemies. The cavalry in Tibet has been pierced into a big sieve, and more than 2,000 corpses have been scattered all over the place, and the blood has turned into a river!

At this moment, there was a sound of horseshoes rolling in front of him. Qin Mubai looked back and saw that there were nearly a thousand cavalry in the northwest. The color of the armor was obviously not the Tang army, but a Tubo reinforcements!

"Order - Yuwen Hongtai met the reinforcements, and the rest continued to kill!" Qin Mubai immediately made a decision, and the deputy general beside him sounded the horn and played the flag.

At this moment, a group of Tubo cavalry who had just rushed to suddenly stop and blew the horn. The Tubo people on the battlefield heard the horn and began to retreat.

"Wat want to run?!" Qin Mubai shouted, "Order, kill with all your strength!"

There was also a horn in the Tang army. The generals of the three armies roared for victory and began to chase the enemy with all their strength!

The remaining Tubo cavalry heard the sound of the horn of retreat, and they had no intention to fight, and most of them withdrew. A few of those who resisted stubbornly died on the spot!

As the saying goes, the army is defeated like a mountain. One side is defeated and the other side takes advantage of the victory to chase and kill. There is no suspense about victory or defeat. The thousand Tibet cavalry who came to rescue the response and order were very cunning. Seeing that the situation was irreversible, they fled first. He fled all the way, blew the horn all the way, and reported the news to the army in front of him.

Qin Mubai led the army to chase and kill for a while, decisively stopped, and Mingjin stopped the army.

The three groups of cavalry no longer love to fight, and quickly closed together. Yuwen Hongtai came anxiously, and he didn't have time to wipe off the thick layer of blood stains on his face and roared, "Major General, why are you collecting soldiers when you are enjoying killing?"

"Don't chase the poor." Qin Mubai said, "There are more than ten thousand Tubo riders, and there are at least five or six thousand horses in front of them. They are reporting the news along the way, and now they must have gathered a formation waiting for us. Our army has fought bravely so far, and we are already tired of people and horses. If we rush in again, won't it let them wait for work with ease? Moreover, they must have formed a situation of encirclement, setting a trap just waiting for us to drill!"

Yuwen Hongtai was stunned and blinked blankly: "Are there so many sayings? Our cavalry is so powerful, are you afraid that you can't kill them?

Qin Mubai smiled bitterly: "I'm too lazy to talk to you!"

Xue Rengui was invincible to kill for a while, and at this time, his face was still as calm as water. He waved the Fang Tianhua halberd and shook off the blood on it. He smiled and said, "General Yuwen, what the young general said is extremely true. You'd better not ask too much. Just move by order."

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense. Major General, what do you think? What should I do now? Yuwen Hongtai muttered.

Qin Mubai frowned and thought for a moment and said, "Ret in place and watch the change!"

"Yes!"

At present, the three strands of cavalry are in one place, slightly resting.

A few miles ahead, thousands of Tubo cavalry were arranged in the west, north and south, forming a pocket encirclement. More than a thousand defeated Tubo cavalry returned to the battle and retreated to the protection of their own army.

Originally, they were waiting for the Tang army to take advantage of the victory to chase and kill, and then use the method of encirclement to gather and annihilate. Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, no Tang Jun came. The ground is full of yellow sand from the bulging east wind and the smell of blood from the wind.

"Cunning Han people!" The Tubo generals scolded.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of drums in the city. Most of the time, I heard that the reinforcements came and prepared to kill them. The inside and outside formed a pinch attack on Tubo.

The Tubo generals couldn't help but be shocked. This encirclement could not be annihilated. In case the two people and horses of the Tang army rushed out at this time, and their own army would be attacked.

"Withdraw--"

The sound of a horn sounded, and the three Tubo cavalry turned the horse's head and quickly retreated in the direction of Southwest Dafeichuan. The robbed cattle, sheep and horses ran too slowly and were mostly lost on the battlefield.

At this time, the smoke and dust in the northeast suddenly rose, and a large number of Tang Qi appeared on the horizon, shouting and killing, rolling in!

"Cunning Tang Jun! At this time, it's killing again!" The Tubo general scolded bitterly, but at this time, his army had withdrawn, and then he had to turn the horse's head to fight against it, and the power and opportunity had been lost. They knew that the fighting power of this group of Tang cavalry was not vulgar, so they did not dare to take risks, so they had to carry out the retreat to the end!

It turned out that Qin Mubai and others heard the sound of the drums in the city from afar, and immediately made a comeback and chased. The Tubo people retreated for fear of being attacked, and the formation was chaotic and did not want to fight.

Qin Mubai, Xue Rengui and Yuwen Hongtai led the army to chase for more than 20 miles. More than 1,000 elite cavalry and soldiers were also killed together in the city of Shangcheng City. The Tubo people still put down hundreds of corpses and fled back to Dafeichuan in a hurry.

"Stop - the whole army retreat!"

If it's good, you can stop it. You will never go deep alone. Qin Mubai immediately issued a military order.

The two Tang army's iron horses stopped, did not stay for a moment, and quickly retreated into the city.

Qin Mubai entered the city, his body was bloody like a bloody night fork, and he could hardly see the original color of the human horse robe. He turned over and threw the tiger's head and golden gun at the pawn beside him. At this time, the soldiers at the head of the city shouted in surprise.

"With such a strong combat power, I thought it was General Qin Shubao who personally led a large army to help, but I didn't expect it to be a major general!"

"Where are the generals of the Songcheng Army?" Qin Mubai shouted loudly.

Several deputy generals of Xue Wanjun of the Chencheng army hurriedly came: "The last general is waiting for punishment!"

"I ordered you two to take a thousand bows and crossbows and cards out of the city, and set up arrows with more arches and arrows around the group cards and horses around the city, and serve as horns for each other to prevent Tubo from returning to attack!" Qin Mubai gasped for a moment and clicked two of the vice generals and shouted, "Remember! There are many crossbows and wooden platoons. If the enemy invades, only archery is not allowed to attack!"

"Yes!" Since Xue Wanjun was injured, there has been no general in the city. At this time, the two deputy generals heard the general's order and immediately started.

At this time, Qin Mubai gave another order to the other two vice generals, ordering them to prepare more rolling stones to guard the head of the city, but when the Tubo people came back, they shot back with ten thousand arrows. In addition, many sentries in the city were placed to impose a curfew to prevent lawbreakers from taking advantage of the chaos. The two generals took the military order and retreated separately.

At this time, Qin Mubai took a short breath, called Xue Rengui and said, "Ren Gui, please work hard. The more you lead your headquarters, the more you ride to meet the four doors. If the Tubo cavalry comes, you don't have to worry about it. Wait for him to withdraw and wave his troops to cover up for a while, but the depth should not exceed 20 miles, remember!"

"The last general is ordered!" Xue Rengui took the general's order and pulled out his horse and left.

Yuwen Hongtai smiled and said, "Young General, are you too timid? The Tubo people have been killed for a while. They must be afraid to come!"

"Let's wait and see!" Qin Mubai smiled slightly and didn't bother to talk nonsense with this man.

After the military order was issued in turn, Qin Mubai breathed a sigh of relief and called the generals in the city to ask, where is Xue Wanjun? The general led Qin Mubai to Xue Wanjun's officialdom.

Xue Wanjun's general's mansion was just after the county magistrate. When Qin Mubai came in, the county officials and generals all breathed a sigh of relief - "There is a master in this city"!

Xue Wanjun suffered more than ten wounds and lost too much blood, and the first aid took a few days before he woke up.

Qin Mubai pushed open his door and walked in, full of the smell of medicine. Xue Wanjun saw Qin Mubai coming in with blood. He was ashamed and excited. He struggled to get out of bed and turned his head and embarrassed to face him.

"General, take a break. You don't have to get up." Qin Mubai came forward and helped him lie down. He sat down by his bed and asked, "How's the injury?"

Xue Wanjun smiled bitterly: "I can't die. If the major general wants to sanction me according to the military order, please hurry up!"

Qin Mubai smiled slightly: "It's common for soldiers to win or lose, and the general doesn't have to worry about it. Fortunately, the city was not lost this time, and the people were not particularly affected. In Chaoyan, my father and I will try our best to take care of the general.

"Oh--!" Xue Wanjun sighed with shame and gratitude, bowed his head and was speechless.

At this time, a pawn ran to the door and shouted, "Report - the Tubo people have gone back, and about 7,000 horses have been killed under the city!"

"How can it be! When I kill them, I will avenge my dead brothers!" Xue Wanjun roared and was about to jump out of bed. Unexpectedly, he pulled the sore, blood burst, and suddenly fell down with a scream.

"General, don't be angry!" Qin Mubai hurried forward and pressed him. He smiled slightly and said confidently, "The Tubo people took advantage of our army's victory and thought that our army would relax because of this, so they killed them again. Instead, it was in line with the 'way of gimmorious soldiers'. I think that the other party's main general is also a person who can be used to the deep military tactics. However, Tubo's move was only expected, so I had already made arrangements so that they would not get any discount. General Xue, you can rest assured."

Xue Wanjun looked at Qin Mubai in surprise and didn't say anything for a long time. Finally, he seemed to be very unwilling and said sincerely, "The young general is calm and calm, Xue... I'm ashamed!"

"General Xue is overreputed." Qin Mubai smiled slightly and called two pawns to remove the heavy blood-stained armor and robes on his body for him. He smiled lightly and said, "It's just a small test!"

Xue Wanjun was choked for a long time and said nothing. Finally, he sighed helplessly: "It's terrible to become a king and lose a bandit!"

Not long after, Yuwen Hongtai boldly broke in and laughed and said, "Young General, I won, I won! The Tubo barbarians ran back angrily to revenge for bad luck, thinking that they could take advantage of our army's victory. Unexpectedly, he was shot by the three-way crossbows arranged by the major general for a while, threw down more than a thousand bodies and fled. Xue Rengui took the opportunity to lead Yifu Jingqi out of the city to cover up 20 miles, and cut off hundreds of their heads - what a pleasure, hahaha!"

Xue Wanjun shook his head with a wry smile, hugged his fist and bowed: "Young General, Xue... I'm convinced!"
