Chapter 230: Victory in the First Battle
"Woohoo!" The blade glittered with cold light swept by, and the tent was suddenly cut open, and Mohad didn't think about it, so he took the reins and rode in.
The cutlass held in mid-air was frozen.
This......? ...... rejection? It's all rejection??
Mohard was stunned, there was not a single living person in the huge tent, it was all a mess of barrage and vertical rejection horses, and they were connected together with iron cables! It seems that the figure of the panicked figure reflected in the lamp just now is just a dream!
The rest of the Anxi military camp tents are the same. The elite light cavalry, with high morale, gradually quieted down.
Mohard's heart gradually grew cold, and he was tricked......
Suddenly, there was a bright light, and behind the camp in front of the horses, there was a black figure at some point, and hundreds of torches were thrown over, and two huge fires were lit, illuminating Mohard and his men through the air.
As soon as he saw the two large fires neatly placed on the left and right, Mohad knew that he was afraid that there would be more luck tonight, and depending on the preparation of others, this was waiting for him for a long time, and it was also his own plan of action and route.
Zhang Ji in the front row was expressionless, slowly raised his right hand, and the crossbowmen behind him raised their arms in a uniform manner.
"Spread out left and right, break through!" Mohard has never fought with * again, and he knows that Tang Crossbow is powerful, and if he doesn't leave, he won't be able to leave!
It's a pity that it was already a step too late, and a few words burst out of Zhang Ji's mouth coldly: "Shoot people as much as possible, release!" ”
If Mohard could understand Chinese, I don't know if he would vomit blood in anger after hearing Zhang Ji's words-he was still thinking about the war horse on his side...... However, he was in no mood to care about anything else, and after a "hum", Zhang Ji's crossbowmen's first round of strikes was extremely efficient, and the two hundred cavalry crossbows almost all found their targets.
The screams rang out one after another, and Mohard's heart was shattered, if it weren't for the desperate sacrifice of his attendants, he might have become a ghost under the crossbow. What's even more terrifying is that after a hurried glance back, the crossbowmen in the front row took a step back after releasing the arrows, and the soldiers of the second-row flat-end crossbow machine grabbed it again!
There was no time to give a new command, and there was another "buzz", and the sound of falling horses and screams was even worse than just now. Mohard's eyes were blood-red, and he shouted angrily: "The back team becomes the front team!" Withdraw! Withdraw! ”
Poor Mohard, if he insisted on his first order, and the Great Food Light Cavalry, shrouded in the fear of death, desperately risked their losses to break through to the left and right, even if Zhang Ji arranged the intercepting cavalry on both flanks, he would still theoretically be able to run out a few. But now he was shot by a crossbow arrow, turned around and retreated, and hit ...... Jian Yuwei.
General Guo is holding his breath, the number of enemies is too small, this is like a person with a good appetite finally waited for someone else's post to invite him to dinner, everything was calculated, and when he looked at the ground, there were a few green vegetables on the table, which were not fresh!
Also Liwei, just this mere 2,000 savage-like light cavalry, not even wearing a single armor, Gao Gong also arranged for a small 20,000 people to entertain...... Liwei's words are no longer to be mentioned, if one of these savages is let run away today, it will be a joke!
In Yang Qing's words, I was embarrassed to mention the process, the scene where the five big and three thick men carried a thick wooden stick and beat the defenseless kindergarten kids, and beat one out of ten, and he didn't have the face to say.
As usual, three rounds of crossbow arrows were fired horizontally, and then they stepped forward to chop melons and vegetables, and all of them were wiped out with a stick of incense. The wolf-like Jianyu guards were already unhappy, and the two coaches showed signs of madness, so everyone didn't even have the heart to scratch their tongues, and they wanted to live? Okay, look for Vice General Zhang, maybe there are unlucky people who haven't been shot, the enemies on our side of Jian Yuwei are all brave, swear to resist, and would rather die than surrender, we have to fulfill them. The big cannibal cannibal can't hear this, and if he hears it, he will die once and be angry. I want to surrender, but you have to say something, come up and slash and beat him, where can I find someone to surrender!
Ziade's posture has changed several times, at first he was carrying his hands behind his back, his chin was cocked confidently, and slowly it became a clenched fist, frowning nervously, and finally both hands were propped up on the city wall, and half of his body was leaning out, so that Wincourt hurriedly took two steps forward, for fear that the coach would accidentally fall down.
"Why is there no movement?" Ziyad turned his head in confusion, trying to find the answer among his subordinates.
"It must be General Mohd who has succeeded,* I'm afraid I'm afraid I've been instigated and put out the lights on alert."
Tararidan squinted at Kazgan, who had no heart and lungs and felt so good about himself, that he despised him in his heart. It's still good, it's really like this? It took half an hour before and after, and after someone broke in, burned, killed, and plundered, the lights were quickly extinguished and the fire was extinguished, and then there was no movement at all? Lose your mind. However, this is not easy to refute in person, Ziyad asked for his own opinion before ordering a sneak attack......
Muhammad, who watched the battle with an injury, knew that the Anxi army was powerful, and seeing that the coach couldn't make up his mind, although he would definitely touch his head, he still had to remind him. After pondering a few words, he frowned and said: "General, this matter is quite strange, depending on the subordinates...... It is better for the city to tighten its guard......"
Qi Yade's heart jumped: "You mean...... The Anxi army has long been prepared? ...... Mohard fell into Gao Xianzhi's trap? ”
"It's not right...... Just in case. Muhammad bowed his head and spoke in a dull tone.
Ziad couldn't believe it, or rather, he didn't believe it, tonight's raid was a proud handiwork of his arrival in Talas, and he smashed the pot? Turning his head in disbelief, Ziyad asked Abdullah with his gaze, and it was not until he saw that he also nodded depressedly that Ziyad woke up like a dream.
"Herald! Strengthen the vigilance under the city, General Bazar, you go and lead your troops to move outside the east gate! Although I didn't believe that the Anxi army had the courage to take advantage of the city after eating Mohard's cavalry, Ziyad was frightened by the strangeness of Fang Cai.
In the tent of the commander of the Anxi army, the atmosphere was a little dull.
Gao Xianzhi glanced at several young generals opposite, and smiled: "Why do they all look like they have lost a battle?" Didn't you say total annihilation? ”
Zhang Ji is still a little angry: "Who knew that they would send this person!" If you knew it earlier, why bother to work Jian Yuwei to close it? ”
"Hahaha!" Gao Xianzhi laughed out loud, "Actually, it's all the same!" It's just to give them a dismount. The total annihilation of 2,000 men was also a great boost to the morale of the whole army. If you want to make the big cannibals suffer a big loss, are you afraid that you won't find a chance? ”
Guo Xi shook his head lightly, and said with a straight face: "Gao Gong, look at our next ......"
Gao Xianzhi smiled and nodded heavily: "A few of you come forward and sit down." With that, he unfolded the topographic map.
"Now that the enemy has increased its troops, according to the report of the Tanma, there are 40,000 Khorasan cavalry dispatched by Dashi alone, and the total strength of the Dashi coalition around Talas has exceeded 70,000, and there must be a lot of reinforcements behind. What we are facing this time is not only a hard bone, but also a big bone! ”
Zhang Ji gasped: "What's more?" Let's add Jianyu Wei Kecai only 70,000 troops......"
Gao Xianzhi snorted coldly: "In a certain eye, it is twenty-five thousand against forty thousand!" This gang of rammed goods in the Western Regions is just a few dishes in the frontal battle! Including our side of the Palhana and Qarluq, a certain one when they were transporting grain and grass. If you can compete with our Anxi Army, you can only eat the 40,000 horses over there. ”
Guo Xi proudly folded his knuckles: "It's not so evil, it's an authentic cannibal who touched it tonight, and it won't be beaten." ”
Gao Xianzhi smiled and shook his head: "It's just an ambush, and the people who lead the troops are not easy to deal with, besides, what they encountered is not an ordinary government soldier." ”
As soon as he heard this, Guo Xi was speechless, it was the truth.
"So the real force is in the back." Gao Xianzhi thought carefully about the topographic map, "Although there is no danger around Talas City, we are starting to fight from the east now, and this Talas River is quite a hindrance. If it's winter, it's better if the river is dry, but now it's the time when the river is turbulent, and you can't separate the east and west banks, otherwise the enemy will cut us up and eat us piece by piece. Now that the whole data riverbank is stationed, tens of thousands of people are set out, and there is no place to move. To be honest, the terrain is not good for us. ”
Several people nodded solemnly, Yang Qing, who was no longer a recruit, wondered why he didn't take Talas in one go, mainly because of this.
"But there is also a benefit," Gao Xianzhi's face was slightly hideous, "In this way, we will have no way to retreat, there are a large number of enemies in front, and there is a big river in the back, if you don't want to be squeezed into the river and feed the fish and shrimp, you can only move forward bravely and kill the enemy and break the city!" Our Anxi army is far away from its homeland and runs to other people's land to fight, on what basis? It's just one breath, sharp! ”
Guo Xi and Yang Qing involuntarily straightened their backs, this is what the battlefield veteran said, this is the way to survive the border army that is not afraid of death.
"The news from Gelulu's side has been released, and it should be sent to the other party's tent in a day or two. Judging from the situation tonight, the big cannibals like to do this kind of sneaky business, and I guess they must use this line! Heel, tell me, what is the arrangement? Gao Xianzhi's tone was not like discussing military deployment, but like gossip.
Guo Xi perked up, understanding that this was Gao Shuai considering himself, and he didn't twist it at the moment, he cleared his throat and said: "Actually, there is no need to arrange it." We are all in line with the will of the big cannibals, so let the beggar force make a fuss behind, and the big cannibal knows that the combat power of us and Ge Lulu will definitely take advantage of the chaos to respond with heavy troops, so he will let them in. It just so happened that in order to prevent them from being confused when they saw Jian Yu's guard, the last general led his headquarters to go to his backyard to stroll, and it was okay to come and not be rude. Gao Gong sees such a response, can it be made? ”
"Bang!" Gao Xianzhi smashed his fist on the desk.
"Good! It is worthy of coming out of Guo Gongfu! That's it! ”
