Chapter 991: Captive Captive Captive (Third Update)
The three scout teams of the Tang army began to circle around, one person and two horses, neither fast nor slow.
The people of the Tibetan army went around in a small circle, and around the circle, three teams of 100 people were separated, and they gathered together in addition, and at the same time led an additional horse.
The heads of the slaves of the Tang Dynasty turned back and forth, making eye contact with each other.
They were excited and worried, and it seemed that the Tang army had come a lot.
It should be no problem to win the battle against the Tibetans, in that case, will he be killed? Gotta resist.
Can't run, running to leave the back to the Tubo people, is it a test of the archery skills of the Tubo cavalry?
"Yo Roar~~ Yo Roar~~" Datang scouts began to adjust their speed and distance.
They had to let themselves enter the firing range when they were facing the side of the Tibetan cavalry in a circle, and then hurriedly went to the side after releasing the arrows.
The Tibetan cavalry was not stupid, they obviously knew what the other party was going to do, and they were also looking for the same opportunity.
Both sides constantly adjusted their speed and position, and neither allowed themselves to lose the inertia of the impact, otherwise the range of the arrow would not be enough.
Turning around, more than a hundred Tang soldiers appeared, and these people dismounted from the place where the bows and arrows of normal cavalry were a stone's throw away.
Hold the bow, kick the crossbow, don't play, find your own position, we have a bow and crossbow with a longer range.
"Charge!" The Tibetan generals looked at the situation, and without saying a word, they commanded the cavalry to rush to the Tang soldiers who dismounted.
The dismounted Tang soldiers hurriedly shot an arrow and a crossbow, turned around and got on the horse, and ran away.
The Tibetan cavalry fell off their horses and urged the horses to continue chasing.
There are a total of 200 people, and Tang Bing is not given a chance to turn around.
More than 100 cavalry Tang soldiers drew their horses vigorously, fast, no matter how fast, they could not enter the enemy's firing range.
At the same time, the Tubo cavalry of three hundred-man troops went to charge three Tang soldiers of fifty people to scout.
The scout also turned and ran, come on, see who is faster.
The general breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his side was now dominant.
Then he suddenly thought of something and shouted: "Come back, don't chase." ”
Only a group of scouts heard, slowed down, and circled over there.
The other three directions didn't hear it, and they still chased and killed.
"Quick, catch up and tell them to come back." The generals were so anxious that they were sweating.
He remembered that the Tang soldiers were looking forward to the telescope, and when the two sides were fighting, the enemy would find out first, and then calmly arrange the encirclement.
Now it's different from before, it's not just a matter of seeing the enemy turn around and run.
When you see it, it means that the enemy has completed the encirclement.
A quarter of an hour passed, and a team of people came back, this team was obviously less than a hundred people, and there was a large group of Tang soldiers behind them.
"Prepare to meet the enemy." The chieftain thought of the sake, and the men he sent caught up with him, and chased him a long way, and then his own men returned in time.
When Tang Bing found out about the situation, he didn't have time to close the siege, so he chased and killed him directly, so that his own people came back.
There were only three hundred and seventy men left on this side, including the one hundred cavalry that had stopped earlier.
The 100 cavalry had not yet assembled, and the 50 scouts of the Tang soldiers did not run and continued to carry around.
The general accelerates with 270 people, and cannot lose speed, even if he runs, there should be a process to increase the speed to the fastest.
The Tang soldiers behind the team of less than 100 people who ran back continued to chase without any intention of stopping.
Looking up, it was densely packed, and there should be no less than two thousand people.
"Go around, go around, go fight those fifty." The general shouted to his own people who ran over.
He was also ready to run, and the people who came back went to cooperate with another hundred people to rush and kill fifty Tang soldiers, and he also ran there in half a circle.
As soon as he finished shouting, more than 200 horsemen suddenly jumped out of the chasing Tang soldiers, and the speed of these people was obviously faster than the other cavalry.
More than 200 people pumped their horses vigorously, one after the other, their buttocks lifted their horses' backs, and their bodies leaned forward, undulating with the ups and downs of the horses.
At first glance, you can tell that he is a master of riding, and the horse is better than other horses.
The team that rushed out instantly disrupted the original thoughts of the Tibetan general, and he led the team to rush out diagonally without waiting for the position to be adjusted, preparing to go around in a large circle to meet his side.
As soon as everyone started running, there was no one to care about the baggage team and the slaves.
The slaves of the Tang Dynasty looked at each other, and then looked at the slaves of Tubo together.
The slaves of Tubo looked left and right, raised their hands, and the slaves of the Tang Dynasty looked for ropes to tie up the slaves of Tubo.
The Tibetan slaves did not resist at all, there were many cavalry, no one helped them, it was important to live, where to be a slave is not to be a slave.
After a long time, the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty came over, and the others continued to chase, but the people of Tubo couldn't run, and there was a blockade in front, maybe they dug a pit.
The pit doesn't need to be big, it doesn't need to be deep, and the horse's hooves are finished, but unfortunately the horse is wasted, so it can only be slaughtered and eaten.
The Tang slaves tied the arms of the Tibetan slaves behind their backs and strung them together.
Stand there waiting, with a smile on your face.
Tang Bing dismounted, walked over, looked at his people, and said, "The patrol envoy said that he would catch him alive, and he would exchange it for your family when the time came." ”
The Datang slaves suddenly stopped laughing, some bowed their heads, and some wiped their tears.
They thought about it, and they had heard that the Tang people in other places were replaced, and the ones on their own side were not replaced.
Now that the people from Tubo on their side are arrested, they will agree to exchange.
Whoever has less strength is in a hurry, hoping that his family can hold on to the moment of exchange.
"Let's have something to eat." Tang Bing took out the meat floss and compressed biscuits on his body.
"Here, we are sending baggage, bows and arrows, cooked barley rice, and jerky." The people of Datang pointed to a cart of things and said.
"That's Tubo, let's stay to eat, and give you the good things of our Datang." The soldier handed it over again.
"Okay, eat our Datang." The people took it one after another, and tasted the meat floss first, which was delicious.
Take another bite of the compressed biscuit, and heck, what is this? Fragrant!
After the people took a bite and knew the taste, they looked at their bodies, opened their own food pockets that they were carrying diagonally, and put things in them.
"Come with us, there is a small river thirty miles away, go there and make a fire there to cook."
Tang Bing used to loosen the ropes of the Tibetan slaves, counting on them to help with the work.
The people of Datang sat in the car and didn't care.
When it was completely dark, the baggage procession reached the river, where a bonfire had been lit.
A pot was set on the fire, and horse meat and wild vegetables were boiled in the pot, as well as some edible mushrooms in the grass.
This season coincides with the time when there are wild mushrooms in the area, and the soldiers know which ones to eat.
Some cavalry continued to patrol more than twenty miles nearby, and some soldiers had already eaten.
When they had finished eating, they took over the patrol and came back to eat.
"I'll lend you some pots." The soldier handed the three people of the Tang Dynasty a multi-functional military unit.
The Tibetan captives were one out of ten people, and they took turns drinking soup.
Whether it was a common man or a captive, it was the first time he had seen such a strange pot.
"How do you use it?" The people held pots and looked at the soldiers eating next to them.
