Chapter 817: Blasting open the portal
In the early morning of this day, the magnificent morning glow gradually rose, slowly expelling the coolness of the early morning. The fields on the banks of the Jiqu River are endless, and snow-capped peaks, valleys, and lakes are faintly visible. The scent of the dew of weeds and the scent of the earth keeps drilling into people's nostrils.
Compared with the small and narrow Yalong River Valley, the birthplace of Tibet, the Jiqu River Valley is more expansive, and the Luoqi River is located in the lower reaches of the Jiqu River, which is the center of the Peng region and was once the political center of Subi. There are Nianqing Tanggula Mountain as a barrier in the north, Niangbo and Gongbu in the east, Zhangxiong in the west, and Yalong River Valley in the south, with a moderate location. Moving the capital to Luo is more conducive to the defense of Subi in the north and Zhangzhung in the west. Due to the above considerations, Langri Zamp decided to move the capital to Logo.
With the migration of the capital, many tribes living in the mountains moved here, and more people began to engage in agriculture, changing from nomadic herding to sedentary grazing, which promoted the development of production. The relocation of the capital also enabled Tibet to truly possess the heartland of the Tibetan Plateau and to control the Quartet in the center, providing favorable conditions for the development and prosperity of Tibet. After the relocation of the capital, large areas of farmland appeared on the plains here, cattle and sheep were everywhere, and horses were fat.
After Lang Ri Zampu set out on the expedition, he was worried that his base camp would be lost, so he arranged an elite army to sit in the town between several portals to prevent border chaos and prevent chaos on the border, and second, if the opposition forces raised troops, they could quickly quell the rebellion.
However, Langri Zampu, who had died under the Jishi Pass, did not know that since he defeated Subi in the south and became the new overlord of the plateau, although the whole of Tibet was full of confidence in his victory, he also lost his vigilance in the past.
I didn't expect that one day, there would be a big enemy, let alone what it would be like if one day, the Sui army would attack.
However, this day finally came, and this is how the first army of the Sui army came to the Luo area silently......
In a hidden valley, a dense tabernacle? This is the station of Wang Fubao, the generalissimo of the marching army of the Logos? It's just that the camp is empty at the moment. Is this the Sui army that has moved out of the valley, ready to launch a fatal blow against the Tubo army guarding the northern gate of Luo? Open the way to the Logos.
On top of a small hill? Wang Fubao took advantage of the cover of the rock and silently thought about the current situation.
For traveling light? As far as the expeditionary force that feeds the war is concerned, the most difficult problem is undoubtedly the problem of food supply? What if you fall for the enemy's plan to lure the enemy deep and clear the wilderness? If the whole army runs out of food, then this army is not far from defeat, so even the Turkic and Tibetan nomads will bring a lot of cattle and sheep when they go out on the expedition? However, the Central Plains Dynasty, which has always attached importance to this issue? With the popularization of fried noodles, the Sui army did not have the drag of the logistics army, but the manpower was limited, and each soldier could bring enough dry food for two months at most, if there was no supply on the way? Then after a month of marching, you have to worry about food.
What made Wang Fubao happy was just as Yang Tong expected? King Zhangzhung didn't ransack the area, they robbed the surrounding small tribes? He went directly back to the country of Zhangxiong, so the army guarding the gate of Tibet seemed relatively negligent.
Wang Fubao looked back at the army? A satisfied smile was revealed.
At this time, all the horses of the Sui army have been fed with fodder? And put on a halter? Prevent them from hissing. The warriors on horseback also clutched the reins, ready to attack at any time. His gaze was fixed on Niu Jinda and the other generals, and he asked, "Are all the soldiers in place?" ”
Niu Jinda arched his hand and said: "General Hui, there are a lot of people?" ”
"Okay." Wang Fubao was full of anger: "This is the first battle to leave the country since the establishment of the Ninth Army, and it is also a battle of fame. We are well-armed, our morale is high, and we have the advantage of taking them by surprise and attacking them unprepared, and we will definitely be able to fight a battle! Just wait for the scout to reply, and you can officially launch a fierce offensive on the enemy's national capital...... The task given to me by the Holy Divine is to destroy and kill, and the command I have given you is also to destroy and kill. ”
"Whoa!"
The generals were solemn, but the heat in their eyes became more and more intense.
Since the establishment of the Ten Legions of the Great Sui, the training intensity of each army has been extremely high, but the confrontation drills are limited to the inside, and there have been no confrontation drills between the legions and the legions, so all the armies have worked hard to prove that they are the first army in the world with one big victory after another.
This is a tacit understanding between Yang Tong and the imperial court, everyone thinks that if the internal is not compared, everyone thinks that the ten armies of the Great Sui are invincible divisions, if it is after the competition, then there is only one invincible division left, it is gratifying to win, but the defeated ones are deeply hit, it is better to maintain this state of war exploits as evidence forever, so that all armies feel that they are the strongest, and give the whole country and the whole army an illusion that the ten armies are invincible. But in fact, every soldier knows that there is no second in the army, so for the honor of each army, all the troops maintain a high spirit.
Wang Fubao looked in front of the battle, and was wondering why the scout hadn't come to reply yet, when the sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded behind him.
A scout lieutenant who was wet with dew quickly dismounted, handed over a sketch to Wang Fubao, and said: "General, the humble post has already figured out all the camps and troop deployments of the Tubo people, please take a look!" ”
Wang Fubao took the drawings from his hand, spread them out and saw that it was indeed a map, and the layout of the camp and the surrounding terrain and landforms were clearly outlined.
Wang Fubao couldn't help laughing: "The camp of the Tubo people dares to be arranged here, and it is so scattered, it can be seen that their master will be negligent in guarding against it, and he is simply incompetent!" ”
Indeed, the camp of the Tibetans was arranged in a haphazard manner, with mountains to the east and west, and this area was simply a small basin with a poor view, and even if the Sui army attacked in the daytime, they would not have noticed it at all...... I think that the main general took a fancy to the lake in the southwest for convenience, so he set up camp here.
"This is God's help, and it is time for us to establish immortal miracles!" Wang Fubao laughed and ordered: "The whole army will attack." ”
"Woo."
In an instant, the horn sounded, thousands of horses galloped, and the whole army was like a black torrent, killing the Tubo camp.
。。。。。。
On the watchtower outside the Tibetan camp, the bored Tibetan warrior was also a warrior of a hundred battles, and when he heard the loud rumbling sound in the north, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he knew that it was a huge sound made by a large number of cavalry marching.
From the sound of horses' hooves, he could tell that this unknown army was marching extremely fast, but the camp was close at hand, and if it was his own army, there was no need and would not have come so quickly, so as not to collide with his own army, lest his own army be misunderstood. The only possibility, then, is that an enemy army is coming.
This is the experience he has gained in the battle of life and death, and it has nothing to do with intelligence.
When he looked into the distance, he saw a black line appear on the distant horizon, which continued to thicken in his vision, and the watchtower began to tremble.
"Woohoo"
The soldier quickly rolled over and jumped down from the watchtower, quickly took off the horn on his back, puffed out his cheeks, and blew it, which was a warning signal to the enemy that was coming, and the soldiers in the large camp rushed out after hearing this horn.
"What's going on?" Several Tibetan generals who stayed in the camp hurriedly ran out of the camp tent and grabbed the rushing Tibetan soldier to ask.
"Cavalry, there's a lot of cavalry coming this way!" The lookout warrior shouted in panic.
"Where's General Meng?" Several Tibetan leaders asked anxiously when they heard this.
"General Meng is still sleeping." A general said anxiously: "I can't care about him, so I will send someone to warn the royal capital first, and ask the surrounding tribes to pull all the cattle and sheep back and prepare for battle." We closed the camp gates and immediately prepared for battle! ”
After years of fighting, they also learned some ways to deal with sudden wars.
"Yes!" Some people took the lead, and the others slowly calmed down.
People from all walks of life rushed out of the camp to deliver the letter. The other horses, under the command of several generals, quickly commanded the soldiers to meet the battle.
The quality of the Tibetan soldiers who fought all year round is really not to be said, after the initial panic, their morale regathered, and they frantically danced their weapons to prepare for battle.
However, the surging Sui army did not give them much time to react, and under the frightened gaze of the Tubo soldiers, they rushed directly into the periphery of the large camp with no protective power!
Tens of thousands of arrows swooped down from the sky with flames and threw them into the tents of the camp, and the flames burst into flames in an instant. Lots of Tibetan soldiers screamed and came out of their tents, and they spun around like headless flies, and then they were shot by the torrent of surging water! There were also some Tibetan soldiers who howled with bows and pointed out of the camp, shouting: "It's the Sui people who are coming!" ”
Someone rushed out of the camp to compete with the Sui army, but before they formed a formation, they were crushed by the Sui army from the front, the Sui people's crossbows were fast and ruthless, and the Tibetan soldiers were proud of their riding and archery skills, and there was no room to fight back under this storm-like blow, and rows of crossbow arrows flew with the sound of cutting through the long wind, sweeping all living creatures in sight!
Groups of Tibetan soldiers fell to the ground like wheat harvested by sickles, the Sui army broke into the camp on horseback, and batches of Tibetan soldiers fell to the ground, at this time people were like cattle, and the entire camp was killed into a sea of corpses and blood, and the cruelty of the battlefield was undoubtedly revealed.
"Kill!"
The cavalry of the Sui army broke out with an earth-shattering shout, and rushed through the camp with an irresistible momentum, killing the Tubo soldiers who were in a hurry to meet the battle on their backs, crying and shaking the sky, and the pungent smell of blood and dirt filled the sky.
Niu Jinda, who served as the main general of the broken camp, raised his knife and fell, cut a general into two pieces, and raised his arms and shouted: "Kill all these Tibetan barbarians, and don't leave any of them!" ”
The whole battle lasted less than an hour, and the unsuspecting Tubo army was scattered by the Sui army, and a wave of fleeing began to break out, and the army was defeated like a mountain.
The felt tents in the barracks were lit one after another, and billowing black smoke billowed and rolled straight into the sky......
The fire that swept through the heart of Tibet officially began with this big camp.
