Chapter 548 The flames 7
Tubo people grew up in a bitter and cold place, and there has always been no lack of courage. At this time, the retreat has been lost, and they are inexplicable. When they see that their master general has brazenly launched a decisive charge, they can't help but have a heart of the same hatred for the enemy. One by one, they turn their heads of the horse, and rushing wildly following behind Xi Su Nalu, like angrily. It swept over the Tang army. Although the formation was chaotic, the momentum was inflated to the extreme and full of murderous intent.
"Withdraw! The crossbow is ready!"
In the face of the Tubo cavalry who were still fighting with trapped beasts, Wang Bing did not dare to be careless at all. He didn't want to fight with these crazy dogs to the end. When he saw the Tubo army rushing fiercely, he did not hesitate to order the whole army to retreat. At the same time, they all took down the crossbow machine hanging on the saddle.
"Fighting arrows!"
The Tang army was originally stationed and standing quietly. At this time, the speed of twisting the horse's head and retreating was naturally not fast. Before the Tang army's horses were released quickly, the Tubo cavalry had rushed wildly to a distance of only 40 steps away from the Tang army's guard, and this distance was still sharply reduced. When it was about to be overt caught up by the Tubo cavalry, they heard Wang Bing's violence. With a drink, the Tang soldiers, who had already prepared, turned around one after another and aimed the crossbow machine in their hands at the rushing Tubo pursuers, and rudely attacked and killed with a bunch of arrows.
"Whew..."
This Anxi iron horse is Wang Bing's direct force. The crossbow machine used is not the Tang army's standard short crossbow, but a series of crossbow produced by Hexi. There are as many as ten arrows in each crossbow machine. Under this simultaneous shooting, it was really like a storm, and the unprepared Tubo cavalry was shot in an instant. Even Sisunalu, the main general who rushed to the front, could not escape the disaster. He was shot into a hedgehog by random arrows. He couldn't even say a word, and he was completely dead.
"Kill all the thieves!"
Wang Bing is not a very kind and soft person. When he saw the Tubo pursuers behind him, he was in chaos. How could he let go of this good opportunity to annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop? He roared and led his troops to make a sharp turn on the battlefield, took a semicircle, and rushed to the Tubo army at high speed. The poor Tubo cavalry had not been able to get the sudden arrows. The rain hit and came to my senses. When I was so rushed by the Tang army, there was not much resistance. In an instant, I was rushed to pieces. The morale of the same enemy earlier was gone in an instant. The death and injury were incalculable. The rest abandoned their blades one after another, raised their hands, and obediently became prisoners. A cavalry decisive battle has been here. The curtain fell, and the Tang army won the whole victory!
The battle was extremely smooth, and the totality only paid the price of more than 30 casualties, so they annihilated more than 1,500 Tubo cavalry who went to the war. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were extremely brilliant. However, Wang Bing was not very proud, and he didn't even have a smile. Just because after interrogating the prisoners of war, Wang Bing had confirmed several things first. There was a hunch before - first of all, the Anxi army's plot to seize Wuhai City was in the calculation of the Tubo army. For this reason, although the troops were tight everywhere, 5,000 troops were still retained in Wuhai City. In addition to the 1,500 cavalry that had been annihilated, there was also a 3,500-step army. With the strength of the Tang army, It is not easy to conquer Wuhai, not to mention Lu Yanda, a capable general, that's all. What worries Wang Bing more is that the main force of the Anxi Army may have fallen into the trap carefully designed by Tubo, and it is hard to say whether he can resist it.
"Order: The whole army rests on the spot!"
Wang Bing really wanted to bring the army to help his own main force in trouble, but his reason told him clearly that if he did so, it would never be of any use except for death in vain. Just because Nagar Qinling was not mediocre, since he dared to let Wang Bing come to take Wuhai City, he must have the burial of his own army's main force. If Wang Bingzhen dares to lead his troops to the way, he will be plotted. Obviously, this road will not work, but he can still have a glimmer of life after capturing Wuhai City. However, the current strength of the generals has not recovered, and it is really not the time to start the siege. There is no choice, Wang Bing can only hold down the anxiety in his heart and order. The whole army rested on the spot, and only some officers and soldiers were sent to escort the captured more than 900 Tubo prisoners of war to cut wood as ladders. The Tubo army in the city also kept silent tacitly and did not send troops to harass the Tang army again. The battle in Wuhai City has come to an end for the time being...
It's almost noon, and it's almost noon, but the Tang army camp stationed on the edge of the Qaidam Basin is still quiet. There is not much movement. It doesn't seem to be pulling up at all, as if the crazy rushing the road a few days ago is just a illusion. As soon as this situation comes out, it makes the Tubo lurking in the Tianjun Mountain generation. The army was very confused. Not only the subordinates of the troops, but also the Jiaer Qinling had some pains to think about it. When they were suspicious, they led their subordinates to dive to a hidden height and overlook the Tang military camp.
"What do you think of the bow?"
Gar Qinling looked at the Tang military camp silently. He didn't say a word for a long time, but his eyebrows unconsciously frowned slightly. After a long time, he asked a sentence without looking back.
"Father, is there any new news about the direction of Shenzhou in the past two days?"
gar did not directly answer his father's question, but raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.
"Well, not for the time being."
Hearing his son's strange question, gar Qinling was stunned at first, and then nodded as if he had some understanding, but he did not say the suspicion in his heart, but said quietly.
"No, that's right, father. If the child expects it well, I'm afraid that Li Xian's child is rushing here, and there is not much time left for our army."
gar shook his head, sighed slightly, and gave a somewhat sensational judgment.
"Sss..., what does the young general mean by this?"
"Which one should I do?"
"How is this possible?"
......
The judgment of the bow is really amazing. A group of Tubo generals who were silently accompanying them all took a cold breath. Without waiting for the words of gar Qinling, they all exclaimed, and for a moment, their voices became noisy.
"Uh-huh!" Kar Qinling raised his hand with a trace of displeasure, whispered, stopped the ** of the generals, looked at the eldest son with a strange light, squeezed his lower lip, and said suspiciously, "How can I see it?"
"Father, Mingjian, our army is good at raising eagles for communication, and Li Xian's child is also good at this. There must be this thing for communication between the two soldiers and horses on the other side. No matter how strict our army is, it is difficult to break the news. I think my father should know this, and the child will not say much. Well, if I ask the child's words, what it is By the way, we have to start from the trip of the Tang army yesterday. Father, you see, the Tang thieves rushed all the way a few days ago, but although the camp was pulled out very early yesterday, they only walked less than 60 miles and then set up the barracks again. It is 15 miles away from the ambush circle of our army. Even if my army kills immediately, it will take more than half an hour. The foot distance is enough for the Tang thieves to calmly arrange the array. It can be seen that the Tang thieves obviously have a guard against the ambush of our army. Thinking of the calmness in the direction of Shanzhou, it can be seen that Li Xian's children may have guessed the intention of our army. The reason why there is no news is nothing more than that the sentries scattered by our department have been annihilated by the Tang thieves. According to Tang The thief's march is calculated. Our army can only have one day's margin at most. Please ask your father to make it clear where to go.
gar bow ignored the strange faces of the generals, bowed respectfully to his father, and slowly explained his own inference in detail.
"Well..."
Gar Qinling was not in a hurry to make the next decision, but chewed his son's inference carefully, and his eyebrows were tightly locked into a Sichuan character. After a long time, he inquired and asked, "In your opinion, what should this matter be?"
"Back to my father's words, at this delicate moment, I thought that there were only two choices that our army could make. One was to kill Tianjun Mountain, first to destroy the enemy from Anxi, and then to return to the division to fight to the death with Li Xian's children. The other was to leave empty soldiers to deal with this place. The whole army immediately turned to defeat Li Xian's children first, and then went back to clean up An. In addition to the Western Tang Dynasty, there is no other way to think about it. If it is delayed, I'm afraid that I will be trapped by the enemy.
When it comes to the decision, the face of the garr bow immediately became awe-inspiring. His slightly tender face was full of solemnity that did not match his age, and he frowned slightly and gave two choices.
"Well, what my son said is very true. I have made up my mind. Sotoso, you are still ambushing here with 20,000 people. If the Anxi Tang thieves do not move, you just need to guard the Tianjun Mountain. If the Anxi Tang thieves come to attack, you only need to block the enemy bandits and not let them pass through here. The rest of the departments immediately turn to the southeast to destroy Li Xian!"
Gar Qinling is a courageous person. Once he has a decision, he will act extremely quickly. Before the generals react, he has already connected two orders.
"No!"
Gar Qinling has a very high prestige in the army. Since he has issued an order, the generals will not have any objections. They all bowed to their promises, but before the generals turn around and leave, a violent noise suddenly rang out behind the mountain, which made all the generals stunned on the spot, and no one knew what happened. What happened?
"What's going on?"
As soon as he heard the noise of the drum, the shouting was endless. The face of gar Qinling immediately changed. He shouted with a calm face, and his voice was full of panic and uneasiness.
"Report, Daxiang, the Tang thief suddenly came and was fighting a fierce battle with the rear army. Please make it clear!"
As soon as Gar Qinling said this, the guards around him rushed down the mountains and went to the back mountain to find out what was going on. After a while, he saw a messenger running up the hill in a hurry and rushed to the front of Gar Qinling. He nodded on one knee and reported loudly.
"What?"
As soon as he heard that the Tang army suddenly arrived, the face of gar Qinling immediately looked bad...
