"We're going to hold out at least until dark, and then we'll break through." Yuan Changdao.

"Where to break through?" Peng Shuangmu looked a little desperate, "On Tiande's side, there is the main force of Tubo. ”

"Of course there is no turning back." Yuan Chang said hatefully: "At the beginning, our Li Xiang kindly reminded you that the Tubo people would attack, and you treated kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, and now it's too late to say anything." Peng Shuangmu, tell me, in the current situation, can your clan uncle keep Tiande? ”

Peng Shuangmu shook his head.

Yuan Chang's words made him unable to refute in the face of the facts, and the Tubo army's sweep of Tiande would inevitably become the next fact, which was the most basic judgment of a general.

"So we can only continue to move forward and go deeper into the Western Regions." Yuan Chang said categorically.

"The Western Regions are almost the nest of Tibet now." Peng Shuangmu sighed.

"It's just about the same." Yuan Chang: "How big is the Western Regions?" And how many nationalities are there? How many people are there in Tibet, and how much area can they control? As for influence, there is indeed one, but the current official is not as good as the current management, and the knife is on the head, which is much stronger than any influence. ”

Li Hai flicked the bowstring and answered on the side: "Now that Tubo has poured out of the nest, the strength in the Western Regions is even weaker, and it is a good time for us to attack the Western Regions." Hehe, when the time comes, they will suffer under Li Xiang, and when they want to turn back, if we have a firm foothold, we can give them another head-on blow. ”

Peng Shuangmu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and what the other party said seemed to be very reasonable.

Tang Ji dragged the horizontal knife and walked in front of the three of them, and said: "Now that these are useless, the other party is going to attack, let's carry it until dark first." Although the main forces of the enemy are gone, what remains is several times more than ours. ”

Peng Shuangmu glanced at the banner on the opposite side a few times, and said: "Delhi Chinan left with the elite, and the one who stayed was called Xenobude, and there were not many elites in the headquarters, and most of them were led by some small tribal armies, Han armies, and some miscellaneous armies, and the combat effectiveness was much higher." ”

"And the Han army?" Li Hai asked in surprise.

"Absolutely!" Peng Shuangmu said: "In the past few decades, Tubo has encroached on a lot of land in the Tang Dynasty, and people in these places will naturally surrender to them if they want to live. ”

"Son of a bitch." Li Hai spat out.

"Get ready for battle! General Peng, the task of defending the fort is entrusted to you. Li Hai and I led the cavalry, and when we found the opportunity, we would bite them, and as long as we held out until dark, we would have a chance to break through. Yuan Chang said.

Yellowbeard and his subordinates, who entered the bitter man's fort, shrank in a corner, and watched the heavily armed Tang Army dangling in front of him with some trepidation.

But where can I go?

Halfway up the road encountered the Tibetan army, not even half of the explanation let yourself say, directly destroyed the army and crushed it, in a blink of an eye the rest of his troops were like a bubble in the army of ashes, if not for their own fast, now I am afraid that they will turn into meat mud to be the nourishment of the land.

I really can't live this day.

He wanted to cry.

Tang Ji strode up to Yellowbeard, tilted his head to look at him, Yellowbeard looked at him embarrassedly, stood up straight, wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"You speak Tang well!" Don Ji Dao.

"I often deal with General Peng, and I often go to Muyu City to trade." Yellowbeard subconsciously pulled Peng Shuangmu as a shield.

Tang Ji nodded: "Let's not talk about the previous things, if we don't work together now, no one will be able to live, Yellowbeard, don't you say?" ”

"Yes!"

"Okay, it's easy to do with this consensus, all of yours are cavalry, I've also seen it, and your skills are not bad, now you are incorporated into my cavalry brigade and fight with me." Don Ji Dao.

Tang Ji didn't consult with him, but ordered, and Yellowbeard had no choice but to nod.

Several soldiers came over carrying several boxes and placed them in front of Yellowbeard and the others.

Tang Ji kicked open the lid of the box, and a shiny pair of half-body plate armor appeared in front of Yellowbeard and the others: "Look at you, a bandit, you can't even afford to put on armor, it's really cold." This old sheepskin jacket can't help slashing and arrows, you wear these plate armor first, if we win, we will give it to you, if we lose, we are all dead, don't say anything, it is estimated that it will be stripped away by the Tubo people first. ”

"Thank you, general!" Yellowbeard was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that this Tang general would actually give them armor.

"Thank you for your fart, thank you for winning the battle." Tang Ji said: "Hurry up and put it on, the dog day is coming." ”

More than 100 long-handled bullhorns whined, and in the sound of the horns, countless cavalry launched a charge towards the bitter fort.

Xenobud looked down on the Tang Army in Muyu City.

In fact, over the years, they have clashed with the Tang army on the border many times, with more wins and fewer losses, plus whether it is Tiande or Ansui, in recent years, they have spent money to eliminate disasters, and once there are signs of Tibet, they will give a large amount of money to spend money to eliminate disasters.

In this way, the Tubo army looked down on the Tang army even more.

Not to mention, now his strength is several times that of the other side.

In Xenobud's opinion, as soon as the two thousand cavalry rushed, the other party would absolutely not be able to resist this broken fort, and if they were scattered, the rest would be simple.

However, the ideal is very plump, but the reality is extremely skinny.

In fact, the border army of Datang is not bad in combat effectiveness. Coupled with various coincidences, Yuan Chang and they arranged a relatively complete defense system in the bitter fort, and as soon as the two thousand cavalry attacked, they were immediately attacked head-on.

Hundreds of carriages, hundreds of strong crossbows, plus the strong crossbows carried by Peng Shuangmu's department, the number of strong crossbows in this small army is a little unbelievable. Generally speaking, it is impossible for a Tang army of several thousand people to be equipped with so many strong crossbows, but this Tang army is a little different.

The scene of nearly 200 strong crossbows firing at the same time was a spectacle. Even if these strong crossbows can only be fired one at a time, unlike the professional strong crossbows equipped by Li Ze's other troops, which can fire six in a row, but it is enough to deal with the Tubo army with the same poor equipment.

The crossbow burst out of the air, whether it was a man or a horse, but if it was next to a little edge, it would either die or be injured.

The Tubo army never imagined that such a Tang army that met by chance halfway would have such a powerful attack power, and at the moment when people turned over their horses and turned over a chaotic mouth, the military horn in the bitter fort sounded, and more than a thousand cavalry surged out from the two openings, led by Tang Ji and Li Hai respectively, like two scissors, one left and one right crossed and cut over fiercely.

Tang Ji was holding a Mo knife, which Yuan Chang had specially obtained for him, and he owed Li Han a big favor for this. Because each Mo knife is not easy to make, the cost is not to mention, there are still a few. But on the battlefield, Mo Dao is indeed the king of weapons, as long as you have enough strength, you can cut people in two without losing a single bit. Behind Tang Ji, followed by Yellowbeard, a gangster, Yellowbeard can be the leader of the bandits, and his combat effectiveness is actually quite good. And those of his accomplices were able to escape from the Tubo Ten Thousand Cavalry, and they were also very good in terms of equestrianism and personal combat effectiveness. At this time, with Tang Ji as a pioneer, these guys who have changed their armor are also full of combat effectiveness.

Li Hai on the other side did not rush forward like Tang Ji, but was located in the middle of the charge, and there were soldiers guarding him on the left and right of his forehand, in order to give him time and space to open his bow.

At such a distance, the Heavenly Punishment Bow only had enough strength to open half a bow, and the sound of strings rang out, rubbing the scalp and earlobes of the Tang soldiers, and flew like lightning under the flanks, and every time an arrow was shot, a Tubo soldier fell upside down and dismounted.

Sometimes a subordinate slashed out, and the other party had just struggled to hold on, when an arrow flew over the body of the Tang soldier and shot him down on the horse.

This kind of archery gave great support to the charging soldiers on the battlefield, and their half of the cavalry advanced faster than Tang Ji's troops.

When the two Tang army troops crossed and cut one left and one right, there was not much left of the 2,000 Tubo cavalry in the first wave, and the rest could only flee back with their tails between their legs.

At this time, it made Yellowbeard and his men more powerful, and their flying grabs flew out, pierced into the backs of the fleeing enemies, and dragged them back again.

By the time Xenobud's reinforcements rushed up, the two cavalry had already crossed over and walked around to the rear of the bitter fortress and entered the defensive circle of the foot soldiers, and the reinforcements were greeted by another round of strong crossbow baptism.

Xenobud had to deal seriously with the enemy in front of him.

According to the information he knew, the Tang army in Muyu City should not have such combat effectiveness. And the two Tang generals who had just appeared in the army had never heard of it.

Could it be that the Tang Army has already reinforced, Muyu City? If this is the case, isn't there a risk of failure on this trip?

The first battle was a great victory, and the bitter man castle was thunderous.

Compared with the cheers of the soldiers, the generals were more solemn.

Once the hors d'oeuvres are over, it's time for the main meal.

Sure enough, after the reorganization, Xenobud attacked again and fought in concert with the infantry and cavalry. The foot soldiers lined up in a neat line, clustered with strong crossbows, the stone artillery force slowly pressed forward, and the cavalry kept speeding in front of the foot soldiers to prevent the cavalry in the fort from attacking suddenly.

"Li Hai, have you rested? Those Tibetan cavalry ran around and looked dizzy, can you kill some of them? Yuan Chang snorted.

Li Hai laughed hesitantly and pulled the Heavenly Punishment Bow, but this time, it was a full bow.

With a buzzing sound, a swaggering pigtail Tubo general with a fluttering head fell from his horse with an upside-down onion from his horse, a distance of more than two hundred paces, he never thought that above this distance, he would be killed by someone with an arrow.

Yellowbeard looked at such a magic arrow, and his mouth was wide open, enough to fit two big buns.
