Chapter 544: Beacon Fire (3)
"Rush in and kill Tang Kou!"
The Tubo vanguard troops who rushed to the military village moved extremely fast, without the slightest pause, and rushed up the wall along the ladder quickly, without counting, in a piercing creaking sound, the two heavy military gate gates had been pushed open by the Tubo vanguard army from the inside, and they had led the main force to Gar Siddharden near the military village and became excited, full of self-satisfaction, just because the vanguard force that captured the city was a night raid brigade secretly trained by it, in order to be the shame of Yixue's defeat in the Datong River Valley a few years ago, For this reason, Gal Sita did not know how much manpower and material resources had been invested for many years, but now, this army finally did not disappoint him, seeing that the wall had fallen, Gar Sita was full of emotion, but he did not forget to give the order for a general attack.
"Kill Tang Kou, kill, kill!"
A group of Tibetan officers and soldiers were already ready to go, and when they heard the commander's order, they dared to delay a little, and they all roared wildly and slaughtered into the army like waves.
Although the Datong military village is located in the key pass, it can be limited to the terrain and terrain, its scale is not very large, the garrison is not much, there are still more than 1,200 elites stationed in ordinary times, as for this time, because of Li Xian's expedition to Tuyuhun, most of the elites have been transferred to the Shanzhou front, there are only more than 300 troops left, and they are all local garrisons in Jincheng County, and the combat power is very average, and it is suddenly attacked, since it is impossible to organize effective resistance, and it is rushed by the surging Tubo army, and it completely fell into collapse, except for dozens of soldiers who saw the opportunity quickly escaped from Shengtian, the rest were all killed on the spot, and before dawn, the Datong military village had completely fallen into the control of the Tubo army.
"Cross the river!"
Gar Sita received the task of attacking Lanzhou City, in order to disrupt the ** rear, taking the Datong military village is only the first step of this trip, although secretly happy in this battle, but Gar Sita was not complacent to get carried away, only a little to gather the team, then waved the army across the Datong River, into Jincheng County.
Jincheng County is not big, and there is no special output, but the strategic location is quite important, it is the western gateway of Lanzhou, an important town in Hexi, once there is a loss, Lanzhou will no longer be in danger, the former Gar Sidor out of the Datong River Valley is defeated under Jincheng, this attack, although it has been known that Hexi is extremely empty, but still dare not be careless, after all, the lessons of the previous car are still there, lest they be attacked again, although the action is rapid, but not reckless, after rushing through the Datong River, immediately strangled the soldiers and horses, looking at Jincheng County at night, At this glance, I really found something wrong - the entire Jincheng County was pitch black, and there was not even a trace of light on the city.
Abnormal, it is too abnormal, although the previous battle of Datong Military Village was short, not to mention the sound of the rebellion, even the fire that rushed to the sky was enough to wake up most of Jincheng County, not to mention the momentum of thousands of horses galloping when the army pressed the border, even if the people who slept to death would never be unaware, but the current Jincheng County is so quiet, if there is nothing strange in it, how can Gar Sita believe it, he thought more for a while, and he didn't dare to make a decision.
"Stick it up and see what it's all about!"
After hesitating for a while, Gar Sita did not dare to wave his army to attack the city directly, but cautiously called the commander of the black-clothed army who had previously captured the army to his side, and gave a cautious command.
"No!"
The commander of the black-clothed army is a strong middle-aged man, quite burly, with a bare head, and there are a few clearly visible incense scars on it, if it is not a black-clothed suit, there is no difference between the monk and the monk, in fact, this person was originally a monk of the Jokhang Temple, if Li Xian is here, he will definitely recognize the origin of this person, it is actually the Decheng monk who had assassinated Li Xian in Khotan, and the black-clothed army under Gar Sita is the elite dead soldier trained by the monk Decheng.
The number of black-clothed dead soldiers under the monk Decheng is not large, there are more than 200 people in total, but their skills are quite good, and they cross each other to cover each other and leap forward in the field, and soon rushed to the vicinity of the city gate, but they did not encounter any attack from the city, nor did they hear the slightest noise on the city, a group of people stopped at the city gate, and even though several black-clothed people took out their flying claws, they threw them on the city, and under a few ups and downs, they had already climbed over / The wall entered, and after a while, I saw that the thick city gate was pushed open from the inside, and more than 200 black-clothed people cautiously broke into the city under the leadership of Monk Decheng.
"Report, general, the city is empty, and there are no Tang thieves ambushing!"
The sky gradually brightened, and Jincheng County was still dead silent, and Gar Sita's heart became more and more uneasy, and he was thinking about whether to send more men to find out, but he saw a black-clothed soldier rushing from the city gate to Gar Sita's horse, one knee, and a loud report.
"Huh? How so? ”
Hearing that Jincheng County was an empty city, Gar Sido not only did not breathe a sigh of relief, but became even more suspicious, and he really didn't understand what tricks he was playing.
"Back to the general's words, the little ones have searched the whole city, and indeed they have not found the shadow of the Tang thief, even the people have disappeared."
When the sentinel saw Gar Sita's strange face, he hurriedly explained it.
"Hmm, go, order General Decheng to withdraw immediately!"
After Gar Sita's eyes rolled, he still didn't dare to act rashly, so he looked up at the sky, sighed, and gave the order to withdraw his troops.
"Decheng, what's the situation?"
Soon after the sentinel arrived, the monk Decheng had already led his troops and horses to withdraw to his own formation, and the people marched to Gar Sitama, but before they had time to pay tribute, Gar Sita had already taken the lead in opening his mouth.
"Back to the general's words, the Tang thief has abandoned this city for many days, and his subordinates have visited several households, and from the situation of the ashes, there has not been a fire for at least three days, and there is no other discovery."
Monk Decheng was obviously also puzzled, but if the Lord asked, he could only answer truthfully.
"Strange, where has this person gone?"
Gar Sita really couldn't believe that ** would give up such a strategic place as Jincheng County so easily, and for a while he hesitated and didn't dare to enter the army lightly, but just muttered and pondered.
"General, since the Tang thieves have given up this city, why should our army occupy it, even if the Tang thieves have an ambush, our army can advance and retreat to a certain extent, there is really no need to worry too much."
Gar Sita muttered and was undecided, but Monk Decheng couldn't stand it anymore, so he suggested a sentence from the side.
"Well, even then, that's what makes it."
Jincheng County is the barrier of Lanzhou, and it is the key pass to hold the Datong River Valley, to occupy this place, the Tubo army will have room for maneuver, even if it can't capture Lanzhou, there is no need to worry about the retreat problem, this truth Decheng monk can understand, Gar Sita and how can not see, seeing that for a while will not be able to guess the intentions of **, although Gar Siddo is doubtful, but can not think of a better countermeasure, carefully pondered, then also agreed to the advice of the monk Decheng, this waved his hand, ordered the whole army to enter the city, this order has been given, The Tubo army moved after hearing the order and began to march towards the city, and the originally strict formation was relaxed, but at the moment when the Tubo army was just opened, a change suddenly occurred.
"Woo, woo, woo......"
A terrible horn suddenly sounded on a hill three miles away in the north of Jincheng County, and then, the sound of the horn sounded in a dense forest in the south of Sanlixu, and two Tang cavalry rushed out of the ambush and swept towards the Tubo army like an angry wave.
Damn, hit the trick!
The first reaction was to want to withdraw the troops and flee, but not far behind him is the Datong River, although it was a dry period, the water was not deep, but for the evacuation of the army, it was very easy to cause chaos.
"Su Ru Mipo, you lead the left army to block the Tang thieves on the left flank! Fan Zan forbearance, you led the right army to kill the right-wing Tang thief, and the rest of the people rushed with the general, crushing the frontal enemy in one fell swoop! ”
Since he couldn't retreat, Gar Sita also made up his mind, and quickly issued a series of general orders, intending to rely on his own 35,000 strong troops to eat the three **, this order, the Tubo army that was in a panic immediately moved, three arrows together, with a tough attitude to meet the three ** ambush.
The tactical movements of the Tubo army were very fast, but ** came faster, and before Gar Sita's middle army was fully activated, he saw a fiery red banner rushing out of the city gate hole, and the first line was inlaid with big characters with gold edges - Longzhou Governor Ling!
"Damn, it's this guy again!"
Gar Siduo has a good foundation in Chinese, and he recognized the origin of the ** that rushed out of the city gate cave at a glance, and his heart was shocked, and his hatred also rose suddenly, and he cursed viciously, and no longer talked nonsense, and he tried his best to speed up the horse, and led his troops to meet the Guanlong Iron Cavalry who was killing at high speed.
"Hugh has gone away from the Tibetan thieves, sons, take credit!"
After four full days of ambush in Jincheng County, Ling Chong didn't want to miss this great opportunity to make contributions, waved the horizontal knife in his hand, roared loudly, and led his troops to rush with all his strength, like a sharp blade to the Tubo army that had not yet been able to adjust in place, and a hard-fought decisive battle began......
