Chapter Thirty-Three: The Aggrieved Servant Gu Huai'en
On the banks of the Baiting Sea River!
Feng Changqing stood on his horse and looked at the battlefield. Ever since they attacked the Turkic camp and captured the Turkic herds, they were immediately under a fierce offensive.
The Turks reacted a little faster than he expected, and did not give them much opportunity to set up.
As a result, the battle situation between the two sides is in a state of stalemate.
This area is the only oasis in the vicinity, with high terrain in the south and low in the north, and the river is crisscrossing and the environment is very complex.
On the one hand, the Tang army took defense as the supreme and sat firmly on the Diaoyutai platform. It was difficult for the Turks to devote too many soldiers to this complex terrain, and even though they had five times as many troops, they could not exert themselves. On the other hand, the Turks occupy high and low, fighting high and low......
Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they fight fiercely in one place.
Feng Changqing looked up slightly. Dense figures rushed forward like ants.
In front of the complex terrain, they scattered into dozens of squads with hundreds of formations, and continuously drove into the battlefield full of death, facing the onslaught launched by the enemy, launched an effective defense, and used their own weapons to give them a powerful counterattack.
The battle unfolded almost simultaneously in almost every part of the Oasis River, and countless Turkic soldiers emerged like ants, and the soldiers encountered each other between the banks of the stream, fighting fiercely.
The greatest weapon of the steppe people is the cavalry, they come and go like the wind, no one can compare.
Pei Min's surprise attack was a trick to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle.
As long as the horses are guarded and the Turks are not allowed to take them, the Turks will be like a tiger without teeth and an eagle with broken wings.
This is the key to winning this battle.
Feng Changqing knew the weight of his task, and completely controlled the outcome and direction of this battle, and he didn't dare to be careless.
With his wise strategy and calm nature, he is best suited to play this kind of stalemate defensive battle.
At this time, his face was like a cooper, and he gave one order after another with a heavy face: the soldiers were reasonably transferred to the post.
"Seal the military envoy! I am back! ”
Fugu Huaien returned to the military formation from the flank with a murderous face.
As far as he is concerned, this battle is a bit aggrieved, and his own strength has not been fully exerted.
According to his specialty, Pei Min specially prepared a heavy armored cavalry team composed of 1,500 people for him to train.
After more than two years of practice, the heavy armored cavalry has gained a certain combat effectiveness.
This time can be regarded as the first battle of Fugu Huaien, but it is not lucky.
According to the terrain, Feng Changqing needed three cavalry teams to contain the Turkic three battalions in the east, west and south, so as to create chaos, so that their main force could capture and control the horses on the banks of the Baitinghai River as soon as possible.
The tactics were executed very well, Xia Shan, who was good at running, attacked the western camp, the brave Li Yide attacked the southern camp, and Fugu Huaien attacked the western camp.
It's just that the advantage of the heavy armored cavalry lies in the impact power, in breaking the formation and killing the enemy, attacking and creating chaos, and delaying time is not the strength of the heavy armored cavalry.
This is not a mistake by Feng Changqing, it is really a last resort.
There were only 16,000 cavalry in the Longyou Army, excluding the cavalry who rushed to Liangzhou to support, Feng Changqing only had three cavalry generals in his hands: Xia Shan, Li Yide, and Fugu Huaien.
Fugu Huaien could only bite the bullet.
At the beginning of Pu, the heavy armored cavalry was amazingly powerful, and the Turkic western camp was scattered, crying for his father and mother.
But as the Que special service reacted and began to ignore the more than 1,000 cavalry of the third battalion, the disadvantages of the troops gradually began to appear.
In the face of small, scattered troops, the consumption of the heavy cavalry was not proportional to the gains they gained from killing.
As the horsepower gradually depleted, Fugu Wynne had no choice but to retreat.
Lest stealing chickens and rice will not be lost!
This battle is a bit aggrieved.
The heavy armored cavalry that spent a lot of effort, and this performance in the first battle made Fugu Huaien feel sorry for Pei Min's cultivation and Pei Min's trust.
"You rest first! Wait for your chance to play! ”
Feng Changqing also knew that he had wronged this fierce general, but he only dealt with it hastily, first let him hold this energy in his heart, and wait for him to vent later......
**********
On the other hand!
Que Secret Service personally came to the battlefield to command, he stood on a high place, looking at the surrounding group of soldiers running on two legs left and right shouting and howling, full of unaccustomedness.
He never imagined in his life that he would lead a group of two-legged soldiers to fight in the field......
Compared with the hearty assault of commanding the cavalry, the contrast brought by commanding the infantry to break the formation and attack the fortification made him unaccustomed to it.
Pei Min really got to their seven inches this time.
Without war horses, in the face of the orderly formation of the Tang Army, Que Special Service found that his Turkic courage could not be brought into play at all.
In less than half an hour, 3,200 warriors disappeared on this cannibalistic riverbank.
The ground was full of corpses, mostly of Turks.
The blood gathered together, gathered into a stream, and flowed into the Baiting Sea......
"Report! Bohuwen has retreated! He has been arrested, and he is waiting for the fate of King Zuoxian. ”
Que Secret Service didn't look back, and said sharply: "Drag it down directly, cut it!" ”
Hearing that he was about to be beheaded, Bo Huwen struggled hard, he was panting like a cow, his blood was soaked through his heavy clothes, and he shouted loudly: "King Zuoxian, my three thousand brothers have all been killed, and I have killed twenty-one by myself." But the Tang people are not afraid of death, they kill one and make up for another, they can't rush in, they really can't rush in! If you give me a team of cavalry, Bo Huwen will promise with his head that he will definitely kill the Tang army. ”
Que Agent glanced back at him, his cold eyes were like sharp arrows, and he couldn't help but take a step back.
Bohu Wen gritted his teeth and said loudly: "I don't need to do it with King Zuoxian, rather than die in the hands of my own people, I, Bohu Wen, would rather die on the battlefield!" He said with the intention of rushing to the battlefield.
Que Te Qin thought that Bo Huwen followed his own southern and northern battles, no matter how vicious the battle was, he did not flinch, his heart was like frying, and he shouted: "I will give you a chance, I will give you 5,000 cavalry, and you will lead the team and break the opponent's defense for me...... If you win, you will have to pay off, and if you lose, don't come to see me! ”
Speaking of this, he pointed to the Tang Army flag floating in the hills in the distance and said: "Before dawn, I will step on that flag and cut off the head of the Tang Army commander......"
He also has cavalry!
In order to prevent accidents, he has always kept 10,000 palace rear troops to prevent the Liangzhou army and the Longyou army from the direction of Liangzhou......
This army of 10,000 palaces was thirty miles away from Baitinghai, and for some reason there were no generals and horses to feed on the grass on the banks of the Baitinghai River. And thus escaped the catastrophe......
The complex terrain could not put too many cavalry, and the Que special service only transferred 5,000 back to the battalion to support.
He believed that as long as the cavalry was in hand, with the bravery of the Turkic warriors, he would be able to break through the defense line of the Tang army.
The horn of the earth-shattering sky was blown for the first time, and a new offensive began again.
