Chapter 996: Taking the Plunge and Occupying the Territory (Part 2)
Tashi Kure did not blame the slave who had turned around first, even though the slave had no human rights.
The crossbowmen are arrayed behind the sword and shield and the contradictory soldiers, and are responsible for firing from the back and forward when the two sides are engaged, hitting the people behind the enemy.
Before they could make contact, the one in front was blown up by the Sky Monkey, how could the archers face the enemy's sword and shield soldiers?
Speaking of which, the cavalry was even worse there, boom, boom, and the horses were frightened.
Seeing that the Tang cavalry first rained down a wave of arrows, and then brandished their sabers to use their formation and speed advantage to kill them.
"Alas!" Tashi Kure felt weak as he listened to the moans and cries of pain from the wounded soldiers fleeing from the camp.
The soldiers who fled outside couldn't eat, but they could tell people how they lost.
They told what they had experienced to the people who helped them stop the pursuit of the Tang soldiers, and then the morale of these people also weakened.
The two sides did not contact each other at all, and the other side began to bombard from a distance of thousands of steps, and dozens or hundreds of people died in one bombardment.
Instead, I stood there and was bombarded......
For a while, everyone was in a very lost mood, and those who did not participate in the battle carefully inquired about the process, and they hoped to survive the battle as much as possible.
Guo Zhiyun waited for the soldiers to finish eating, he hesitated for a moment, and asked the soldiers to line up again.
Then twenty hot air balloons are lifted into the air, and the people below move with ropes holding the hot air balloons.
Twenty of the monkey's cars followed, the wounded remained, and the rest were in charge of the vehicles.
The car was loaded with tools and things like wood and nails.
Some cars were loaded with tents, stoves and other items.
The team marched forward in a mighty way, and after an hour and a half, the scouts of Tubo discovered them, and the Tang Dynasty did not send scouts at all, just hot air balloons to watch.
Seeing that it was going to be dark, Tashi Kure got the information, thought about it, and had no choice but to give the order to retreat.
can't fight, just lost, morale is too low, let Datang beat the one who didn't participate in the war before, and it's completely over.
The Tibetan army hurriedly packed up their things and ran, and some things were thrown there before they had time to pack up, and they had no idea of defense.
They retreated, and the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty lit torches and continued to follow behind.
The cavalry rushed out, ready to find an opportunity to surprise or shoot in circles.
The Tibetan cavalry came up, and the two sides circled together.
The speed of the Tibetan retreat accelerated, everyone ran, and some heavy things were simply thrown away.
Not only are things thrown, but the wounded can't keep up with the team and are also thrown down, so figure it out yourself.
"The Mo Dao soldiers put down their knives and sent people to guard them, and the others continued to move forward, and the whirlwind cannon walked slowly behind, not in a hurry."
The order conveyed by the Tang soldiers, the Mo sword soldiers put down the knives and armor.
The soldiers didn't know what to do, and all the way forward, the enemy retreated all the way, and they couldn't hit anyone.
In the middle of the night, everyone took a short break, ate some compressed biscuits, drank two sips of water, and continued to move forward.
When it was dawn, he picked up many wounded Tubo soldiers along the way, as well as things thrown by the Tubo team.
Including weapons, tents, and tools, the people in Tibet have been retreating, and some people feel that they are not strong enough, and others do not care, so they throw things away.
"Set up camp, right here, there's a small river here, and camp in front after passing over."
Another order was given, Tang Bing felt that he had collapsed, this was not a war, it was a hurry, running during the day, and rushing for the night at night.
The car behind came, crossed the river, and everyone casually dealt with a few mouthfuls of food, and rested for half an hour.
Dig trenches, assemble horses, pile up soil slopes, and build camps.
The armies placed in front of the Longyou Jiedu in the back also moved, and they got up early in the morning and moved forward with their baggage.
On the way, when they saw a pile of weapons, they piled up another pile and sent someone to guard them.
Mo Dao Bing's belt and send it to the front.
The captives of the Tibetan detachment were gathered together, and they were given to be guarded, given water to drink, not to eat, and the wounded to soak in some dry rice to drink.
"Look, two-thirds of the land of nine curves has been taken." Guo Zhiyun smiled at Wang Junkui and said, his face full of exhaustion.
Wang Junkui stared at Guo Zhiyun: "You are really crazy, you are too bold." ”
He understood the situation, there were no explosives bags on the hot air balloon, and the last twenty cars of rockets were brought from behind.
People are tired and should rest for a few days.
As a result, Guo Zhiyun made a bet, betting that Tubo had no fighting spirit and could not engage in the battle.
Succeeded, Tubo run, this run, Tubo don't want to recover quickly.
Many things were also thrown along the way, including the wounded and those who had no strength to flee during the day.
Now it's okay, the entire Jiuqu, two-thirds of the place will be taken down and the army village will be built.
In fact, it accounts for one-third, but this one-third has good terrain, and it is impossible for the Tubo army to stand in front of a series of military villages in the Tang Dynasty.
The Tibetan army must withdraw for dozens of miles, otherwise the hot air balloons in the sky will keep an eye on them.
This is equivalent to accounting for two-thirds, gaining more strategic operation space, and there are more flat land and grasslands.
At least the horses in the army don't need to send fodder forward, the disadvantage is that the supply line is extended, and the help of Longyou's soldiers is needed.
Guo Zhiyun was a fraud, and Tubo didn't know that he didn't have an explosives bag.
"There is no one in Tibet who can't recover in ten days and half a month." Guo Zhiyun is in a good mood.
If the Tibetan soldiers retreated in the past, this time they were demoralized and fled first without a fight.
The people of the Qianhu camp in the Jiuqu area also ran away, and the people would only feel that their soldiers were not good.
After losing a lot of tools and weapons, it was not easy for the Tibetan team that had escaped to organize people to come over.
On the way, they also picked up some slow-moving cattle and sheep, drove the sheep away, the sheep were chaotic, and the Tubo people had no time to collect them.
I believe that digging in the location of the thousands of Tibetan households here can find the cellar.
There will be food in the cellar and even people hiding there.
Wang Junkui shook his head: "Half a month is not enough, the team of tens of thousands of people in Tubo is completely finished, and it takes a lot of time to replace other armies." ”
The villages are divided one by one, separated from each other by a certain distance, and the water source and height must be guaranteed.
The villages must be able to connect with each other, and the tents must be set up in the middle of the village.
Overlapping, this is the real march and encampment.
The horses were placed in the back, and the transport carts were placed further back.
There is no food and grass, waiting for the help of Longyou's troops, and there are other teams that have not come.
That is to say, there is an empty army in Liangzhou, write a letter back, and let Lanzhou's army replenish Liangzhou, and Lanzhou will not need so many people.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were tired, gritted their teeth and persevered, they knew that only after the camp was built could they rest in peace.
Some sheep without their youngs were killed, and some cellars were found, and sure enough, there were things, and there were people.
There were even a few wells that the Tubo people didn't have time to fill, which shows how panicked they were when the strategy was turned in.
Guo Zhiyun wrote a war report and wrote the actual situation into it, without boasting or talking nonsense, and at the same time said that his side had great logistical needs.
He didn't dare to blow it, in case the court saw him blow, if he took it seriously, he didn't give anything, how could he keep it?
