Chapter 70: Siege
Fugu Huai'en was loyal and brave, and the giant horse lance in his hand circled and waved left and right, picking up one after another Tubo soldiers under the horse.
But with the sound of a sharp breaking wind, a steel spear stabbed from front like a poisonous snake without noticing. The tip of the spear flickered, and suddenly it shook into a spear flower, and stabbed at the chest of Fugu Huaien.
Fugu Huaien's pores were terrifying, it was actually difficult to parry, he held his breath, roared the tiger, and at the same time twisted his body, and slid to the left side of the belly of the war horse with great skill, and instantly turned over on the horse, and stabbed at the enemy with a backhand.
The center of gravity of the opponent's body pressed to the left, and at the same time, the spear moved with all its strength to the right, pushing the horse lance of the servant Huai'en.
The speed of the war horse made the two pass by.
Fugu Huai'en couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart: the power of the enemy's spear in the darkness was terrifying, and the angle was particularly tricky, if it weren't for his superb riding skills, he would really be able to ride it under this surprise.
Such a thought flashed in his mind, and Fugu Huaien had no time to care, and when the horse lance danced, two Tubo soldiers who came to stop him were hit in the neck and heart, and immediately fell off their horses, and continued to stab forward.
After about a quarter of an hour, there was a sudden clearing in front of him, and Fugu Huaien succeeded in cutting the front part of Tubo into two parts, and saw that the enemy had surrounded him on all sides.
A whistle and slipped.
Heavy cavalry is not an ordinary assault cavalry.
Even if the cavalry loses speed, they can still turn around and continue to charge, while once the heavy cavalry loses speed, the heavy armor will become a burden to them, which is not conducive to hand-to-hand combat.
At this moment, opening up the distance and organizing a second wave of charges is the use of the real heavy cavalry.
Heavy cavalry is extraordinarily expensive, and every soldier is extremely expensive, and it is the blade that is the key.
Pulling away, he regrouped his lineup and planned to make a second charge.
Just as he was about to give the order, he suddenly found that the speed of his soldiers was a little slow.
As a member of the Longyou Army, Fugu Huaien leads his soldiers to participate in three or four military exercises almost every year, and has a sufficient understanding of the strength of the heavy cavalry team he trains.
Heavy cavalry is the most physically demanding because of the heavy armor of men and horses, and the training of physical strength is the most rigorous.
In his memory, the heavy cavalry under his command was able to maintain six consecutive assaults, after which the men and horses were exhausted, and the combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.
However, now it is only a spurt, and there are signs of slow movement?
Fugu Huaien suddenly remembered that Pei Min had said altitude sickness many times, and he had some understanding in his heart.
In order to intercept the Tibetan army in front, they hurried to Nalu Post before, and spent some physical strength, but now they broke out of the formation.
The fighting power of Tubo is not weak, and it takes a lot of strength to break the formation.
Nalu Yi has begun to penetrate deep into the plateau area, and the altitude sickness is far more serious than in Fuqi City.
Thinking of this, Fugu Huai'en immediately called a soldier and said, "Go and tell the deputy envoy of Wang Jie that altitude sickness is worse than imagined, please pay more attention to him!" ”
As he spoke, he raised his horse lance and laughed loudly: "All of you are brave and invincible, and none of them are of a bad breed!" How can the climate crush us? Let the Tibetan children see our ambition! ”
Wang Zhongsi frowned, looking at the battlefield, the performance of the soldiers was a little lower than expected, making him feel a little strange.
"Is it because of the shipwreck?"
Wang Zhongji thought in his heart, and just as he was pondering, he was reminded by Fugu Huai'en.
In an instant, Wang Zhongsi came to his senses and found that he was still underestimating altitude sickness.
The climate that made many famous generals of the Tang Dynasty sink into the sand is really not easy to deal with.
Looking at the layout of Tubo, Wang Zhongsi smelled a hint of danger, looked in the direction of Fu Qi City, and suddenly realized the problem.
Zhao Yizhen didn't come?
Zhao Yizhen is one of the three generals left by Xue Ne to Pei Min, who is flexible and opportunistic.
And Wang Zhongsi is calm and brave, strong and soft, but when Yu Zhizhi changes, he is slightly inferior, and Zhao Yizhen can make up for this.
For Zhao Yizhen, Wang Zhongsi is also very important.
This time, his troops were divided into two routes, one was led by himself to intercept Dazha Lugong, and the other was handed over to Zhao Yizhen, so that he was responsible for taking the opportunity to take over the city when Dazha Lugong abandoned the city and left. After taking control of the city, he rushed to join it and attacked Dazarugon in front and back.
Now that Dazaru has abandoned the city and fled, Zhao Yizhen should quickly control the situation in Fuqi City and rush to support.
Before it arrives, there will be accidents.
Wang Zhongsi looked down at the battlefield, and the Tubo army faintly turned to the defensive posture in the face of its own offensive.
On the surface, he has an advantage, but the situation may not be as optimistic as imagined.
Altitude sickness was more serious than expected, and although the Tang army had the upper hand at this time, it could not take the desperate Tubo for a while.
The soldiers' physical strength was lost very quickly due to altitude sickness, and Zhao Yizhen's reinforcements failed to arrive in the first time.
The current strength is that Tubo has the advantage, and once the physical strength is really urgent, I am afraid that there is still a possibility of losing.
Dazarugon originally intended to break through, but he did not necessarily have other intentions.
Wang Zhongsi's eyes showed a trace of solemnity, no longer hesitating, and said in a loud voice: "Change the battle plan and send an order to General Fugu Huai'en, so that he can directly attack the commander of the Dazaru Gongzhong army with heavy cavalry." It is rare that you lead a group of troops and horses to break through to the right and directly attack the commander of the army of Dazaru Gongzhong, and I personally lead the troops to the left to attack the enemy commander's formation. No matter how many Tibetan soldiers were killed in this battle, it was not a merit, and leaving Dazarugon alone was the victory. ”
Under the command of Wang Zhongsi, the Tang army was no longer in a stalemate with the Tubo army, and directly chose the tactics of breaking through the center.
The three generals, Wang Zhongsi, Fugu Huai'en, and Wang Yuanyuan, were divided into three different directions, and at the same time launched a strong attack on the Chinese army where Dazaru Gong was located.
The onslaught of the three generals instantly increased the pressure on Dazarugon's Chinese army.
Dazaru Gongtie blushed his face and fought with tenacity, resisting the onslaught of the three generals, and for a while, Wang Zhonghei, Fugu Huaien, and Wang Rare couldn't attack.
Half an hour later, a Tang army unit appeared in the Tibetan rear army.
Zhao Yizhen, who was half an hour late, rushed to the battlefield and besieged Dazarugong's middle route army on all sides.
In the face of siege from all sides, Dazarugon still held out undefeated for half an hour.
But as the soldiers died one by one, the chances of life became smaller and smaller.
The Tubo soldiers who surrounded them finally began to break down, and began to flee in all directions without a head, and even when the Tang soldiers slashed at their bodies, they had no intention of resisting, and blindly fled. Some even dropped their weapons directly and let others slaughter them.
Looking at the battle situation, looking at the Tubo soldiers who were gradually crushing in their hearts, Dazaru looked at the Tubo King Banner behind him blankly, he pulled out his knife, laughed wildly, and wiped the knife under his neck with his backhand.
