Zhang Jia's arrangement outside the camp was extremely insidious.

There is no law to follow in the tripping horse rope, one in the east, one in the west, high and high, short and short, in the middle of countless tripping horses, there are also sprinkled with thistles, digging some unobtrusive pits, these things are not eye-catching, but the pit war horses come, the effect is excellent.

When Zhang Jia shouted down, the raiding cavalry led by Ashdulla turned on their backs, just as he said. It was at this time that dozens of trebuchets in the battalion were ready for the second offensive. Compared to the first set, the range of the trebuchet with the angle of the throwing arm and the counterweight adjusted was suddenly reduced, and the throwing area happened to be in this chaotic area.

The Tubo army, which uses cavalry as the main means of attack, has excellent riding skills, and at the moment when the war horse falls, most of the soldiers can get rid of the fallen war horse in time, but the stone bullet that follows it has become a soul chasing weapon.

They didn't have any room to flicker around, and huge stone bullets came into the air, smashing them into a mess with a huge whistling sound.

Under such circumstances, once the cavalry attack was launched, it was extremely difficult to stop, and subconsciously, these Tibetan cavalry began to concentrate towards the middle section, because they found that in this area, the war horses could pass unhindered.

Of course, the truth is not so simple, there must be other traps in this passage, but they don't think about it, they just subconsciously control the war horse to concentrate here.

The cavalry, which had been flooded by the flood, was suddenly restrained when it approached the opponent's camp, and turned into a torrent that was more turbulent but had a small exit.

The sound of a buzzing whistle sounded at this moment.

Strong crossbow.

Dozens of crossbows were divided into three waves, firing about thirty crossbow arrows at a time. Their goal is this narrow space of only more than 20 zhang.

The pre-calibrated range and firing range allow the soldiers to shoot, load their crossbows, and shoot again. Three waves of shooting, endlessly, one after another, countless cavalry fell on this narrow passage.

Being shot by a strong crossbow and being shot by a regular bow are two different things.

What it means to die without a corpse is embodied here.

Ashdura's eyes were bloodshot, and he hadn't even touched the edge of the Tang people's camp, and more than five hundred horsemen fell on the way to attack.

The front army was largely destroyed, and the cavalry that had sporadically rushed through the blockade line was shot into hedgehogs by a dense barrage of crossbow arrows as they bravely rushed forward against the earthen wall about a man high.

Ashuna, who regrouped and formed an offensive lineup again, did not hesitate to organize a second wave of offensives. With the loss of more than 500 horsemen, he still cleared the obstacles on the way to attack.

More than a thousand cavalry launched a charge again, trampling on the flesh and blood of their comrades along the path where their companions fell, and rushed towards the right guard camp with angry shouts. The knights either bent their bows and arrows on their horses, or slammed their heavy weapons such as meteor hammers into the opposite camp.

The crossbows were still whistling, and the stone bullets were still flying in the air, but for the cavalry who scattered the attack, the threat had been greatly reduced, and it was only by luck that the stone bullets could be used to attack the cavalry advancing at high speed.

The low wall, which is more than one person high, is not a problem at all for these elite cavalrymen. With the reins of the horse, the war horse jumped up in the midst of the gallop, easily jumped over the low wall, and fell towards the wall.

The Tibetan cavalry was already fantasizing about rushing into the Tang soldiers and killing them.

The horse flew in the air, and the man looked to the ground.

Then the cavalrymen let out a cry of despair and panic.

The Tang army within the low wall was rapidly retreating, but at the same time as they retreated, rope nets bounced up from the ground, more than a foot above the ground, and the holes slightly larger than their fists were like grinning mouths at this moment, laughing wildly and waiting for their arrival.

When the horses fell, the knights leaned down, and some of the skilled riders hung on the horse's belly with only one leg and one hand, waving their war knives in their hands, and slashing desperately at the rope nets.

The rope net trembled, and it was powerless, and it could barely cut off one or two with a knife, but the war horse was already deep in it.

The horse still wants to run.

So, unsurprisingly, they lost their center of gravity and fell to the ground with a thud.

The more than 100 riders who jumped in first, without exception, were all entangled in these rope nets. The intellectually aware of the opportunity immediately broke away from the horse, lay down in the rope net and quickly rolled forward, and the reaction was a little slower, and he was immediately covered by crossbow arrows again, and was shot to death by the Tang army.

The rest of the cavalry continued to charge, and the Tang infantry in the camp were still retreating, but they had not much distance to retreat, because not far behind them, there were already strong crossbows and trebuchets in position, and if they retreated, these heavy weapons would lose their protection, and if these things fell into the hands of the Tibetans, they could immediately turn around and bombard the front camp of the right guard.

The Tibetans saw the hope of victory.

The hope of victory paved with blood.

Ride forward.

Then he stepped on the air with a hoof.

Obviously, the place where the Tang army had just withdrawn had become a trap at this moment.

A long trench appeared in front of them.

The trench itself exists. It's just that a layer of wooden planks was laid on it, and the soldiers passed in an orderly order, which was not enough for them to step on, but the war horses and cavalry stepped on it, and the planks immediately broke, and the Tibetans planted them into the pit with men and horses.

What's even more terrifying is that in the trench, a fire broke out with a bang, and a wall of fire suddenly appeared in front of the cavalry.

The first cavalry, now turned into a burning man, and there were those who had managed to crawl out of the trench, screaming, running, burning all over, and then falling to the ground, no more sound, only the body still burning occasionally twitched, but it made the people who saw it even more frightened.

The war horses that followed closely behind, out of the natural fear of the fire, some turned their heads and retreated, some stood up, and the surging cavalry was in chaos.

Then, they were greeted by a dense array of crossbow arrows, powerful crossbows that had been fired horizontally before, and were even more powerful.

Ashdullah's whole body froze outside the camp.

In a short period of time, half of his elite cavalry team was lost. And seeing the iron heads of the Tang Army that reappeared behind the low wall, he clearly knew that the cavalry that attacked was afraid that there would be no life to return.

He never imagined that there were so many ways to deal with cavalry.

In the past, when he launched a group cavalry charge, his opponent would basically be annihilated in the wave of cavalry like a bubble in the sea after a little resistance, but now, his opponent is like a reef in the stormy waves, smashing the waves again and again without any damage.

Do it again?

God knows how many traps still await him in the camp.

And until now, he has not had a formal confrontation with the Tang Army.

But the form is very clear, the other party has long been prepared for their attack around the rear, which is why there is such a complex and well-thought-out defense deployment.

When the surprise attack is not strange, there is no meaning of existence.

Cavalry is used for field battles, not for storming fortifications.

"Retreat!" Ashdullah roared unwillingly.

Zhang Jia laughed loudly in the camp and raised his middle finger high at Ashdulla, who was far away.

"Bad goods!"

He spat on the ground.

It's a pity that he doesn't have enough cavalry in his hands now, if his own descendants are still there, if Li De's rangers are still there, can Ashdullayan leave so well?

Zhang Jia, who had eaten enough of the flesh and blood of Ashdulla's cavalry, turned around and shouted loudly: "The trebuchet turns, bombard the front for me." ”

Dozens of soldiers rushed to the chassis of the trebuchet, inserted the iron chisel into the hole in the chassis, and pushed the chassis to rotate like a grind, and after a while, the throwing arm of the trebuchet turned 180 degrees and aimed it in front of the camp.

This trebuchet is the latest product of Zhenzhou, the base is fixed, and on top of the base, there is a large load-bearing turntable that can rotate freely. After being placed in place, these iron drills are driven into the holes above the turntable, through the base, deep into the ground, and play a fixed role, when it is necessary to turn, pull out the iron drills, and the turntable can be rotated to realize the 360 degrees of trebuchet without dead angle rotation.

Delhi China could not see the attack of Ashdulla in the rear camp, but he could see the stone bullets thrown high in the camp, and although he was surprised that the Tang army used such a heavy weapon for field warfare, he was not too worried. This weapon is not a great threat to cavalry.

But when he saw the stone bullets flying up, crossing the sky, and falling towards the middle of the Yellow River, his heart was shocked.

The right guard changed the direction of the attack, which can only say one thing.

Ashdullah failed.

At this moment, he didn't even think about why these large trebuchets could attack in a different direction in such a short period of time.

The stone bullet weighing more than 100 catties fell on the ice, even if it was the middle of winter at the moment, even if the Yellow River was extremely thick, but after this blow, the ice still made a panicked explosion sound, and cracks quickly extended on the ice surface.

"The ice is cracking!" I don't know who shouted, and the Tubo army, which was attacking forward through the ice, the soldiers of the Tiande Army immediately panicked. As soon as they looked down, they saw dense cracks stretching under their feet, and after a shout, the people turned their heads and ran towards the way they came.

If the ice cracks, and it falls into the water at this time, it is basically equivalent to death.

What sent them away was the black-clad crossbow arrows and the earth-shattering laughter of the Tang army.

With a few more stone bullets falling on the ice, with a crisp sound, a large piece of ice finally shattered, and then the sound of crackling continued, and the river surface, which had been frozen for a long time, finally revealed its true face again.
