Chapter 259: Death Squad
"Pass my orders! Stop the attack, and the whole army retreats five miles! Qin Ling gave the order with a calm face.
After giving the order, Qin Ling sighed and lowered his head in thought.
Zanpo glanced at Qin Ling, and also did not speak, he knew in his heart that the decision Qin Ling made at this moment was the right choice.
The failure of the siege came second, and the key was the opponent's sudden blow to the Tibetan marksman, which hurt morale too much.
In particular, the three throwing spears that the other party shot out of the earth-shattering ghosts and gods left a great shadow in the hearts of the Tibetan soldiers.
At this point, if you want to attack again, it will definitely not have any effect.
Besides, without the cover of a marksman, a forced siege by a Tibetan soldier is no different from sending him to death.
In this case, the only way to do this is to retreat first and then take a long-term view.
After a long time, Qin Ling suddenly raised his head, as if asking and as if talking to himself: "Who is the person who shot the gun just now?" ”
Hatred Shui made a bitter face, and whispered out three words: "Lu Xiaoxian!" ”
"Is that him?" Qin Ling's eyes froze, "Are you sure?" ”
"It's true!"
Qin Ling was far away, and the man shot too fast, he didn't see who it was.
The man seemed to be dressed in a white shirt, not like an officer or soldier, listening to what Hatred Water said, he suddenly understood, it turned out to be Lu Xiaoxian.
"Lu Xiaoxian! Lu Xiaoxian! Qin Ling muttered to himself, "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it!" ”
I don't know if Qin Ling didn't expect that the person who made the shot was Lu Xiaoxian, or if he didn't expect Lu Xiaoxian to have this skill.
The defenders of the city wall watched the Tibetan army retreat, and immediately burst into cheers.
Lu Xiaoxian and Zhao Lang glanced at each other, then glanced at the soldiers with smiles on their faces, and shook their heads slightly.
Not only did he not have any joy, but his mood became heavier and heavier.
Although the Tibetan army suffered a temporary setback, the losses were not large. They retreated in an orderly manner, and with his knowledge of Qin Ling, Qin Ling would never admit defeat like this. The Chin Ling will definitely make a comeback, and the next battle will definitely be even more tragic.
……
Qinling retreated, but Lu Xiaoxian was not idle, he picked out five hundred people from the whole city defenders.
Do?
He was going to take these people to the night attack and vomit himself
Fan army.
Regarding Lu Xiaoxian's bold decision, Zhao Lang and Guo Qin were resolutely opposed.
The Tibetan army besieging the city is at least 50,000 people, and it is not a joke to attack 50,000 people with 500 people?
What is the difference between being sent to death?
Lu Xiaoxian didn't think so, he had his thoughts.
As far as he knew, neither the Tang army nor the Tubo cavalry had the ability to fight at night, and night battles rarely took place.
Night battles are a very troublesome thing for the command of the army, it is difficult for soldiers to distinguish each other in the dark, and it is even impossible to distinguish between the enemy army and our army, and the enemy cannot see it, how can it be fought?
Because of this, there are very few large-scale night raid battles.
Not only that, but sometimes there is a possibility of unprovoked riots during the night when the army is stationed.
The military environment is highly closed, the density of personnel is extremely high, and the military discipline is very strict, and the nerves in the barracks from the general to the soldiers are highly tense during wartime. This kind of extraordinary tension and depression may be triggered by the scream of a soldier in his sleep, or the instant detonation of a certain weapon's miss, causing a catastrophic chain reaction, the general completely loses control of the army, the nervousness and the fear of the night, the soldier runs indiscriminately, tramples, slashes, and kills, causing a lot of losses.
Because of this, the average soldier was immediately executed for making noise, running, and singing during the night station.
Lu Xiaoxian decided to sneak attack at night, not because he was good at night fighting, who made him the weaker side, this was also a last resort. He didn't expect five hundred daredevils to inflict many casualties on the enemy, five hundred against fifty thousand, counting fifty thousand pigs lying there for them to kill, tired and exhausted.
Lu Xiaoxian's real purpose was to cause chaos to the Tibetan army.
The torches in front of the Assassin's Mansion were bright, and the five hundred warriors were lined up neatly.
They all have dark complexions, they are all plastered with pot ash, who made the original Tubo people look white, since they are disguised as Tubo people, they have to pretend to be some.
Of course, it is not enough to just plaster the pot, these people are all wearing the military uniforms of the Tibetan people, and there are many blood stains on the military uniforms.
There is no doubt that these uniforms were taken from the corpses of those Tibetan soldiers.
Lu Xiaoxian was very well prepared, and each daredevil's team member was equipped with a short weapon, which was conducive to hand-to-hand combat.
In addition, Lu Xiaoxian
Jean also asked Guo Qin to teach everyone the Tibetan language.
Because of the limited time, Lu Xiaoxian only asked everyone to learn the simplest sentence: "Enemy attack!" ”
At this moment, Lu Xiaoxian and these daredevils are exactly the same outfit, and they can't see his true face at all.
He stood on the steps with a bowl of wine in his hand, scanning the five hundred warriors in front of him.
There are many familiar faces in it, Zhang Meng, "Huang Mao", "Black Tiger", Chai Liu, Wang Haibin, Cong Chen......
Lu Xiaoxian wanted to fight in person, even Zhao Lang and Guo Qin couldn't persuade him, and Zhang Meng definitely couldn't persuade him. Although he couldn't persuade Lu Xiaoxian, he could accompany Lu Xiaoxian to fight together. The two of them grew up together since childhood, and of course they must share blessings and hardships.
Since Lu Xiaoxian returned from going to Luo Qi City alone, Zhang Meng swore that he would never let Lu Xiaoxian go into danger alone again in this life and this life. Now, Lu Xiaoxian is going to attack the Tubo military camp at night, this is a matter of nine deaths, how can Zhang Meng be absent?
"Yellow Hair" and "Black Tiger" were originally slaves bought by Zhang's house, and since they followed Zhang Meng, their life trajectory has completely changed. Although Zhang Meng is young and the two of them are young, they are very angry with them in terms of personality and behavior. In the eyes of the two of them, Zhang Meng is not only their master, but also their brother.
Zhang Meng wants to kill the enemy, how can the two of them retreat, for the sake of their master and brother, "Huang Mao" and "Black Tiger" have no regrets even if they lose their lives.
As for Chai Liu, it should be a special case.
Originally, Lu Xiaoxian did not agree with those veterans of Guangwu to join the death squad, but he couldn't resist Chai Liu at all. A hundred Guangwu united soldiers, including Chai Liu, did not hesitate to join the death squad, they not only fought for the honor that Lu Xiaoxian fought for them, but also fought for the fathers and villagers of Guangwu, and died without regrets.
Wang Haibin and Cong Chen took the initiative to invite Ying, but they were specially sent by Zhao Lang.
The Whirlwind Brigade has the strongest combat effectiveness in the defenders of Taozhou City, how could the death squad organized by Lu Xiaoxian be without the Whirlwind Brigade?
Before coming to Taozhou City, Wang Xiaojie gave Zhao Lang a death order: Lu Xiaoxian's safety must be guaranteed at all costs.
Now, Lu Xiaoxian personally led the team to attack at night, and of course Zhao Lang and his whirlwind brigade couldn't be a spectator. Zhao Lang sent Cong Chen and Wang Haibin with the brother formation of the Whirlwind Brigade to protect Lu Xiaoxian's safety.
