Chapter 282: Assembly Number

The meanness of the Tubo people is completely in line with expectations, Lu Shangqing's character did not explode in vain, he guessed correctly, the Tubo people are following the pursuit, and the idea of 'flowers' blooming in the center.

"Damn, do the Tubo people have the ability to sprinkle beans into soldiers? Why did so many people pop up all at once? ”

As soon as the figure of the Tibetan princess disappeared into their army, the white 'jade' claws sounded the alarm, and the flying eagle crouched on the ground to confirm that the enemy reinforcements had at least 10,000 horsemen.

Although the hostile situation was in line with Li Huaitang's worst plan, he still couldn't help but express the doubts and 'confusion' in his heart. In this world, there is really only unthinkable, nothing that cannot be done. Li Huaitang even doubted whether the Tubo people had completely occupied Xiao Bolu, otherwise it would be impossible to explain how so many soldiers and horses crossed the Xiongguan Mandao of Xiao Bolu.

Li Huaitang retreated to the double 'wave' peak in embarrassment, at this time, the sky was already dark, and the Tubo people who followed were not in a hurry to attack, but unhurriedly formed on the small slope of the double 'wave' peak, waiting for the arrival of the follow-up main force.

The south of the south peak of the double 'wave' peak is a gentle slope, the first line of defense of the Wucai army is located on this gentle slope, the defense line is about two hundred steps away from the bottom of the slope, the main line of defense will be Wei Anguo, he has nearly 3,000 people under his command, half are sword and shield men, half are spearmen, his duty is to block the Tibetans, protect the strong crossbowmen behind him.

Wei Anguo was both excited and worried. Excitedly, he hadn't encountered such a big battle for a long time, the big war meant merit, he hoped to break his battle famine, let him 'chest' the lonely silver star add another brother, he was worried that the terrain here was very favorable to the military cavalry, before the Tubo people sent their heads to him, the Tubo people had to go through the crazy test of those strong crossbowmen behind him, I don't know how many scraps of cold burning for him to clean up, and more troublesomely, if the Tubo people were frightened by the terrifying crossbow arrows and did not dare to come forward, then his hopes would be disappointed.

Things are not so simple, the Tibetan people are not local 'chicken' tile dogs.

In the night, as the reinforcements of the Tibetan people arrived one after another, there were more and more torches under the double 'wave' peaks, and they became more and more dense. The intention of the Tibetans is obvious, and they do not hesitate to fight at night!

A detachment of 1,000 infantry men broke away from the thick formation of the Tibetans and slowly moved towards the hillside in front of them.

"General, the Tubo people are coming up, let's show them something."

Gongsun Wenyuan, who was arrayed near the peak, seemed quite excited, and the result of following Li Huaitang's northern expedition to the Tucai Shi was that the silver stars in front of his 'chest' were increased to four, and in his opinion, the Tubo people in front of him were his 'star messengers' to become five-star warriors.

Li Huaitang shook his head and stopped Gongsun Wenyuan's impulse to use a strong crossbow. Gongsun Wenyuan was more than brave but not calm, the movement of the Tubo people was not large, and the thousand-man team was just a pre-war snack for the trial, and it was not worth using a big killing weapon to entertain.

"The longbowmen in the front are ready, and the ones in the back are not allowed to 'shoot' without an order!"

Li Huaitang gave a strange order, and the crossbowmen all wondered if there was something wrong with their ears, or the herald was the work of the Tubo people, and this order was clearly to release water to the Tubo people.

Gongsun Wenyuan was stunned for a moment, and then anxiously confirmed to Li Huaitang whether his ears had deceived him: "Does the general want to let them up?" ”

"What if we let them up? More than 1,000 Tubo people are not enough to guard the country! "Li Huaitang is very confident, Gongsun Wenyuan can't see what kind of 'medicine' he sells in his gourd.

Before reaching the foot of the gentle slope, the thousand-man team of the Tubo people did not encounter any threat, and the rain of arrows in the worry only fell two rounds when going uphill, but it was not very dense, and under the triple cover of the night', shield platoon and chain mail, the loss was not more than 100 people.

"Stop it!" Captain Belen, who was watching the battle from afar, smiled contemptuously, "Congratulations to the general, the horse bandits will definitely be captured." ”

Candle Dragon Mangbuzhi was not so optimistic, his expression was solemn, not because the enemy occupied a favorable terrain, what made it difficult for him to be happy was the enemy's reaction and formation. Although the horse bandits were young and frivolous, they were calm and cautious, they obviously thought of this possibility, and the preparations before the battle were very sufficient, and the formation arranged was rigorous and orderly, and it could be seen at a glance that it was the effect of strict training. Candle Dragon Mangbu even wondered if he had met the Tang Army, or that this group of horse bandits was simply dressed by the Tang Army, but it may not be very 'sexual', if the Tubo princess who married the Tuqi Shi was captured, the generals of the Tang Army would definitely happily return to Chang'an to invite merit and be rewarded, so they were not in the mood to care about the life or death of those Tang slaves, let alone risk being beheaded by their court and their homes, and 'privately' thought that the princess would 'trade' with the Tubo people.

"General, are we going to increase our troops and destroy them in one fell swoop?"

Berenzan was very 'excited', and the feint team of 1,000 men was able to engage the opponent with little effort, and it seemed that with a little more effort, they could crush the enemy in one fell swoop.

"Wait, it's not time yet."

The candle dragon Mangbu Zhi was very calm, the heavens seemed to be favoring the enemy, three days of wind and snow, followed by clear weather, the bright moon was in the sky, the wind was calm and the waves were calm, such weather was very beneficial to the defender's bow and arrow array, although the enemy's arrow rain just now was not very powerful, but his intuition told him that the enemy did not use all his strength. Before he set out on the expedition, he inquired in detail about the situation of the enemy, and what he said caught his attention, that the enemy had strong crossbows and an unknown number.

The strong crossbow is the nightmare of the Tibetan people, and it is the pain in the heart of the candle dragon Mangbuzhi. This year, Tubo was defeated by the Tang army because it could not deal with the Tang army's strong crossbow array, and a large number of brave soldiers fell in front of the strong crossbow array, resulting in a mountain of defeat. Therefore, when he heard that the enemy had a strong crossbow, he had to be cautious, and the thousand-man team he sent was precisely to 'find out' the enemy's equipment, but the enemy did not do what he wanted, as if they did not have a strong crossbow. The enemy is overconfident? Or is Mo Lobsang lying? Likely, this coward, afraid of taking responsibility, naturally speaks of the enemy as strong.

Sometimes, it's really face-saving to kill people, if Candle Dragon Mangbu can be cheeky and ignore the gossip and ask Princess Zhuoma, he can know a little bit about Li Huaitang's equipment. Unfortunately, as soon as she received the princess, the Candle Dragon Mangbu Branch arranged for someone to transfer her back to Sindo City, and did not ask her carefully about the enemy's situation.

On the double 'wave' peak, the Ningyuan Wu cavalry and the Tubo people had a tacit understanding, and they sat back and watched the soldiers on both sides 'hand-to-hand' fight on the first line of defense, and neither had the intention of increasing their troops.

Facing hundreds of Tibetan soldiers who came up from behind, Wei Anguo thought that the general deliberately gave him military merits, and with such an understanding general, Wei Anguo was almost moved to tears.

The soldier died for his confidant, Wei Anguo's grateful heart soared to the sky, roared and screamed, the spear went out to sea like a dragon, pierced a Tibetan man with a shield against the shield wall, and picked up a reserve spear, and continued to look for the next target......

Before the hand-to-hand encounter, the self-confident and brave Tibetans looked down on the horse bandits, and the unfavorable terrain and numerical inferiority did not affect their confidence in victory. Hundreds of moths bravely hit the thick shield wall of Ning Yuanwu's cavalry like fire, but the battle situation was contrary to their wishes, the opponent was under the protection of the giant shield, the spear pierced was ruthless and accurate, and their small pony shield often could not resist, or was pierced, or knocked down, but they were helpless against the other party, and the battle situation was one-sided.

In such a 'hand-to-hand' fight, the Tubo thousand-man team that feinted could not afford to be injured. As an attacker, it is impossible for them to drag a heavy huge shield to climb the slope, and even if they take a spear, they can't hold a horse shield, so the soldiers prefer a small pony shield in their left hand and a scimitar in their right hand, which can both protect themselves and attack, but they didn't expect the enemy's spear to be so powerful that they were very injured. It wasn't until the horn sounded that at least more than 300 Tibetan warriors fell in front of the shield wall, and the time for the hand-to-hand battle was only a cup of tea.

The original intention of the candle dragon was to test the enemy's strong crossbow, but he was surprised to find that the enemy's spear and shield array was very powerful, exceeding his expectations, and an ominous feeling crept into his heart, manifested in the folds of his forehead.

"General, let my 10,000 people get on board!" Seeing that more than half of the thousand-man squad of feints had been killed or wounded, Berenzan was furious, and he did not believe that he could not deal with the horse bandits who stood in his way with his superiority in numbers.

"General, we can get close and 'shoot' them with bows and arrows!" A general suggested. In their opinion, these horse bandits lacked bows and arrows, and there was nothing to fear.

In the face of various suggestions, the candle dragon Mangbu branch did not take it, he was still waiting, his calm eyes looked through the night, looking at the top of the slope, it seemed that the figure of the young general was there, looking at him......

On the top of the slope, Li Huaitang was also looking at the camp of the Tubo people, and he was also waiting, waiting for the Tubo people.

Gongsun Wen was far puzzled, what kind of battle was this? He has the strength of his empty body but has nowhere to vent, and the Tubo people do not let him be happy.

"General, what are the Tubo people doing, aren't all the strong crossbows rushing up to hit us over, and I don't know what to do there?"

Li Huaitang smiled: "Don't worry, Lu Shangqing hasn't sounded the assembly call yet!" ”

"Rallies? What rallying number? ”

"The rallying cry for the Tibetan attack!"

Lu Shangqing blew the trumpet, of course the Tubo people did not 'urinate' him, but Lu Shangqing had a way to make the Tubo people come like a 'tide'.

In the ditch between the twin peaks, thousands of unarmed men hung their heads under the arrows of hundreds of eagle knights, and beside them, the corpses of a dozen diehards reminded them that there was only one end to revolt.

Lu Shangqing was quite proud, and taking advantage of the terrain of the double 'wave' peaks, he selected the Tuyuhun dead soldiers one by one, and all of them were detained between the double 'wave' peaks.

"It's time, let's do it. Don't let the general wait. ”

Lu Shangqing said lightly to Feiying, like an executioner who kills people without blinking, even he himself is surprised, it has only been a few dozen days since he joined Ning Yuan Iron Cavalry, and he has changed so much, he has disregarded life to such an extent, it is a whole thousand lives!

The screams were accompanied by the sound of "Boom" feathered arrows, and the screams resounded through the valley, and the knights of the Eagle Riders slaughtered and screamed at the same time.

In the eyes of the Tibetan people, the enemy on the double 'wave' peak then appeared to 'commotion'...... Please keep in mind the URL, if you like "War Owl in Tang" written by the wolf under the moon
