Chapter 1177: Advantages of the Tigris!
Chapter 1177
"Wang Chong, I'm here to help you!"
The wind was blowing, and a figure fell from the city like a big bird, and the head of the village was holding a cane, which looked very dazzling. After the Battle of Talas, with the help of Wang Chong and other generals, the old village chief, like the old man of the evil emperor, recovered from the battle and regained his former strength.
"Eight Poles Fracture Technique!"
Almost at the same time, Gao Xianzhi pulled out his long sword and flew out of the city wall.
"Ring of the Sea!"
A loud shout resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the sound of the sea tide suddenly sounded in the void. Cheng Qianli held the ring of the sea and also jumped from the city.
- Before, Wang Zhen killed Ziyad and obtained his Ring of the Sea, and finally after everyone tried it, they found that Cheng Qianli was the most compatible with this Ring of the Sea, so it was left for him to use. Although Cheng Qianli did not have the Heavenly God of the Great Desolation, he also entered the ranks of the imperial generals with the ring of the sea.
Next, in the face of the dense rush of the Governor, Brigadier General, and other generals, Bahram, Abeni and other leaders of the rebel army rushed down from the city. Soon after the start of this offensive and defensive battle, it evolved into a top-notch war between the imperial generals.
The sky over the battlefield on the east bank of the Tigris River quickly became dangerous, tons and tons of air waves were like ocean waves, washing, colliding, and roaring in the void, all kinds of martial arts and weapons were shining in the void, and the forces of all sides cooperated with each other and attacked together, and the two sides fought inextricably.
"Xi Yuyu!"
Suddenly, a fierce hiss came from below, and in the midst of the lightning, a big food governor glanced down, and his face suddenly changed greatly:
"My lords, it's not good! Our army can't hold it anymore!"
Under the tall and majestic walls of Khorasan, I saw countless Tang people, Khorasan people, and rebel armies from various places, rampage among the soldiers and horses of Dashi, and they continued to rush along the edge of the city wall and the battlefield.
Just when the Obsidian Triumvirate, Hular and other Great Food Governors and Wang Chong and others were fighting fiercely, the combined forces of the rebel armies of the Tang Dynasty, Khorasan and various regions, under the leadership of Cui Hussar, Li Siye and the King of Gangke, had also completed the joint outflanking of the 200,000 Great Food Army on the east coast, and began a comprehensive encirclement and suppression.
In the rear, inside the open gate of Khorasan, a large number of soldiers and horses are still coming. If this continues, the battle between the Obsidian Triumvirate, Hular, Wang Chong, and Bahram has not yet ended, and the 200,000 Great Eclipse Army on the east bank has been completely annihilated.
"Retreat! All the armies retreat!"
The Obsidian Triumvirate looked down and saw this scene, and couldn't help but shrink their pupils, and their faces changed sharply, and the Tigris River on the west side of Khorasan had become the weakness of the Great Eclipse Army at this time.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the Tang side to adopt a strategy of outflanking on the other side and when there are still 500,000 troops, but a Tigris River makes the reinforcements of the follow-up troops of Dashi extremely slow, so even if the 500,000 troops on the west bank see this scene, they are completely powerless.
"Hmph, did you just think of it at this time? Cui Hussar, Li Siye, the king of Gangke, listen to my orders, all the armies will shrink with all their strength and annihilate the big cannibals!"
Wang Chong stood in the air and could hear clearly.
Seeing six ways and listening to all directions is a necessary quality for generals. Wang Chong fought with the Obsidian Triumvirate on the battlefield, and everything had been arranged before, and by the time the Great Eclipse was aware, Wang Chong had already completed all the deployments silently, and all the Great Eclipse troops on the east bank of the Tigris River were encircled.
Boom, boom, boom, with Wang Chong's order, the Tang Dynasty, Khorasan and the rebel armies of all parties suddenly crisscrossed like tightened fishing nets, and suddenly rushed towards the big cannibals on the battlefield from all directions.
Bang bang bang, just in an instant, batches of big iron eaters immediately fell down like defeated grass, no matter how they struggled, they couldn't resist.
10,000, 30,000, 50,000, 70,000...... , the rout of the Great Cannibal on the battlefield is much faster than expected. One side attacked prepared and orderly, while the other side was so panicked that it didn't even know where the attack was coming from.
The defeat is like a mountain, and the Great Cannibal can still compete with the Tang Dynasty in the battle at the highest level in the sky, and even faintly occupy a slight advantage, but on the ground, it is a completely different matter.
"Kill their encircled army and open the way for the army to retreat!"
Boom, a black energy fell from the sky like a meteorite, and it slammed down on a rebel army. In an instant, the explosion exploded into the sky, and countless rebel soldiers were blown apart and flew into the sky.
At the same time, Hural and other governors of the Great Food also landed one after another to help attack the Tang coalition forces on the Tigris River.
With the cooperation of these governors, the Great Food side quickly opened a passage to the west bank, and one by one they scrambled to jump on the warships and retreat towards the west bank.
"Let's go!"
A great iron-eater looked panicked, stepped on the icy water, stepped onto the small warship, and headed towards the west bank of the Tigris River in panic. And behind them, more and more large eaters and horses poured west along the gap like a tide.
"Retreat! Retreat at full speed!"
The whole army was in chaos.
"After Fars and Gu Ma Dan lead your army, don't let the Tang people rush over!"
The white corpse of the empire Hural suddenly fell to the ground and said to the two Great Food Governors wrapped in black heavy armor not far away. However, Hular's words did not fall-
"Boom!"
Just behind the army, in the middle of the open gate in Khorasan, a huge dragon banner suddenly appeared, and just below the dragon flag, a figure as strong as a mountain suddenly strode out of the city gate. Behind him, steel roared, and one army after another, with an invincible momentum that destroyed Kula, poured out like a tide, pushing towards the Great Eclipse army on the battlefield.
Shenwu Army, Longxiang Army, Shengang Army, Cangwu Army, Tongluo Iron Cavalry...... The top army of the Tang Dynasty quickly stepped into the battlefield, and before a big iron horse could react, it was split in two by a Shenwu army soldier, even with people and horses, and the whole process was extremely fast, boom, one, two, three......
When the Tang Dynasty dispatched the top army, one after another of the Great Food Army kept falling, these big * teams were like sharp swords, harvesting the Great Food Iron Cavalry on the battlefield.
Countless iron horsemen rushed forward one after another, but in the face of the edge of the top armies such as the Divine Martial Army and the Divine Prison Army, it was completely like a grasshopper shaking a tree, and as soon as they rushed over, they were completely killed and fell heavily to the ground. Five thousand, six thousand, eight thousand, ten thousand......
Although the Divine Prison Army, the Shenwu Army, the Dragon Xiang Army and other armies dismounted to fight, the speed of their advance far exceeded that of all the iron cavalry. Ah, the terrible screams are endless, this is the first time that the army in the interior of the Great Food Empire has seen the power of the top army of the Tang Dynasty, the impact and oppressive force are incomparable, completely beyond imagination.
The army of the Great Eclipse was already at an absolute disadvantage, and when the black-armored guards led the top legions such as the Divine Martial Army and the Divine Prison Army to join the battle, the Great Eclipse side was even worse, and the real defeat was like a mountain and there was no way to return to the sky.
"Everyone's full speed back!"
Seeing this, Hular clenched his teeth, and finally had to give up all his luck and command the army to retreat at full speed.
"Whew!"
A loud trumpet sounded, coming from the camp on the opposite bank, this time a real retreat.
And when the horn sounded, the Tang Khorasan people and the rebel armies of various departments shouted to kill, accelerating the speed of encirclement and annihilation.
Bang bang, one corpse after another fell to the ground with pale faces, but in just a moment, the 200,000 troops who landed on the east bank of the Tigris River were killed by 110,000, and the vast Tang Dynasty, the Khorasan people, and the rebel armies of various tribes were like a vast ocean, constantly pushing over from all directions.
The space is getting smaller and smaller, even if it is a warship, it is too late to pick up all the big cannibals and iron horses, and finally-
Plop! Plop!
A famous iron rider panicked, and hurriedly plunged into the cold and turbulent Tigris River with men and horses. It was swept all the way downstream by the current. And immediately after him, two, three, four, driven by the rear * team, densely packed with thousands of iron horsemen, jumped into the river one after another.
- Jumping into the river only has a certain chance of death, and the probability of survival is quite high, but if you are chased and killed by the Tang and Khorasan people behind you, it is basically a dead end.
Five thousand, six thousand, seven thousand...... More and more of the army jumped into the river and swam towards the opposite bank, but more and more fled into the distance. In just a few moments, almost all of the Great Eclipse troops stranded on the east bank jumped into the river, or jumped on the warships and retreated to the opposite bank. At the same time, the war horses neighed, and the Obsidian Triumvirate Hular and all the generals of the Great Food Governor rose into the air one after another, or stepped on the river, or flew through the void, and all fell in the direction of the opposite bank.
"That's it!"
There was still some distance from the river, and Wang Chong waved his arm to stop everyone. The Tigris River is a double-edged sword, which can be used to deal with the Great Cannibals, and it is also a layer of restraint on the Tang Dynasty. Fortunately, in the heartland of the Great Food Empire, Datang originally occupied the active position, and it was Da Shi and not the Datang people who really needed to break this deadlock.
"Withdraw!"
With a command, in just a few moments, all the soldiers and horses withdrew to the city of Talas, leaving only a large area of corpses on the east bank of the Tigris.
