Chapter 272: Turbulent Surge (3)

Early morning.

On the edge of Weishui, a hundred miles west of Chang'an, Lu Ziji led 50,000 cavalry of the Black Armor Army to occupy a hill when he saw Uighur soldiers gathered on the shore, as if they had just landed on the shore.

Lu Ziji, who was holding a spear and looking into the distance, put away his monoculars, withdrew his gaze, and looked at Gu Renyi with a serious expression, "Brother Gu, this battle is related to Ziji's status in the princess's heart, and now that the Uighurs are not on their heels, it is the best time for a surprise attack!" ”

Gu Renyi nodded in agreement, this is the Brother Lu he knows, the princess is from the same village as us, and then said, "I charged with the fish scale array, attacked and disturbed from the flank, Brother Lu charged head-on, let the black-armored cavalry exert their maximum combat power, and finally completely defeated them together in the confluence." ”

"Okay, I'll break through from the front, look at their wolf-tail military banner, it should be the Uighur general Wuhuchuan commander, Brother Gu, do you think their numbers are not normal!" Lu Ziji said and spoke, his eyebrows were tightly together, and he seemed to be able to wring out the water, there was no problem with the banner, but the overall lineup had a big problem, at a glance, it did look like a formation of 100,000 soldiers, but when it was carefully scrutinized, it was the opposite.

Gu Renyi didn't say anything when he heard this, he picked up the monoculars and observed, and he was also puzzled in his heart, the camp was empty, the number of people was wrong, and there were no Uighur war horses on those warships, and they were basically infantry brigades.

"That's right, Brother Lu, the princess thinks that the Uighurs will not engage in water warfare, and should bypass the frontal battlefield and attack us after crossing the Weishui, now it seems that either they have an ambush, or they just fake a shot, pretend, and wait until we lose both sides in the internal fighting, and then sit and collect the fisherman!"

Lu Ziji heard Gu Renyi's analysis, his eyes lit up, and he nodded frequently, the speculation of sitting on the fisherman was likely to be true, he thought about it carefully, combined with the intelligence of the Uighurs to capture Yumen and other important passes, entering the customs at this time, I am afraid that he wants to take Liangzhou in one fell swoop, go straight to the pass, and swallow the Tang Dynasty!

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Ziji immediately ordered the black-armored sergeant beside him.

"Not good! Quickly inform the princess that the main Uighur force has not crossed the Weishui, and that it is likely to turn back to Lingwu, and that they will join forces with the Uighurs outside Liangzhou, and take advantage of our internal fighting to take Lingwu in one fell swoop! Attack Liangzhou in an attempt to encroach on more land! ”

After listening to this, Gu Renyi suddenly realized, if this is the case, wouldn't it just be cheaper for the Uighurs, and it will be difficult to recover Liangzhou at that time, and he also noticed the gap between himself and Brother Lu, and was able to recognize such a deep-seated problem, and analyze it, sure enough, Brother Lu has the demeanor of a general.

After the herald released the harriers, Lu Ziji led the army to charge according to Gu Renyi's proposal and took back the position on the shore of the Hulls.

The sun exuded a hot breath, and the jet-black steel knives were stained with residual heat, and the black torrent carried the remnants into the Uighurs' bodies, making them remember the smell of death.

The sun scorched the earth, Lu Ziji was dressed in a white robe dyed bright red, jumped off his horse, came to the shallows on the bank of Weishui, inserted the spear into the ground, watched the clear river rippling on the bank, bent down, washed his dirty hands, and then took off the robe, soaked it in the water, scooped up several scoops of water and poured it on his face, stood up and turned around, facing the scorching sun, looking at the battlefield with thick smoke, sighed, pulled out the spear, wiped the body of the gun with the scattered red robe, and then washed the robe, let the war horse and some water, So they marched towards the makeshift barracks that had been built on the hills.

In this battle, there were not many things captured, the Uighurs were only about 10,000, and although the resistance was fierce, they could not stop the advance of the Black Armor Army, and the war ended in just one hour.

There were about 1,000 prisoners, Lu Ziji no longer looked around the devastated battlefield, rode to the top of the mountain, dismounted and tied the reins, put the spear on the shelf, took off his robe, and entered the camp tent, where he saw Gu Renyi who was treating his wounds.

"You're hurt?" Take a closer look, it's fine, "It's okay, it's just a minor injury!" ”

Lu Ziji met Gu Renyi's gaze, walked to the side, picked up the gauze ribbon on the table, and helped tie up the wound.

"Thank you, Brother Lu! If you don't pay attention, you were bitten back by those captives and got a little injury, hahaha! ”

Gu Renyi's heart warmed slightly when he saw Lu Ziji helping him deal with his wounds, and he was worthy of being a brother who grew up together.

"Your Highness said that the smaller the injury, the more you should pay attention!" Lu Ziji didn't ask how it was handled, he smelled a smell of alcohol, he must have been poisoned, and there was basically no need to worry.

"You and I brothers are going to make a career in this troubled world! What's more, Brother Gu is old and young, so try not to go into battle in person in the future! Lu Ziji admonished, suddenly feeling a little weak.

Gu Renyi moved his injured arm, looked at Brother Lu who was a little weak-hearted with sincere eyes, and didn't pick out the stalk of his weak heart, and instead said, "Brother Lu still has to win the heart of Her Royal Highness the princess as soon as possible, it's okay to get rich, we can't ask too much!" ”

“....”

Lu Ziji was speechless for a while.

Going down from Weishui, there is a frontal battlefield.

"Your Majesty, please be careful when you get on board!"

Guo Ziyi stood on the shore, carefully supporting the sage Li Heng, his face was full of helplessness, if this battle continues, no matter how much victory is won over there, it will only cheapen outsiders.

"Well, you go down, guard the Weishui camp well, and wait until I am successful and take Chang'an, and then you will cross the Weishui to restore your life!" Li Heng was full of ambition, facing the warm river breeze, his heart was extremely happy, and finally it was sunny, and then he wanted to capture the princess of the country alive, and then cook wine and narrate.

Nearly 100 warships slowly sailed towards the opposite riverbank, the canvas covered the sky, the momentum was huge, quite a heroic style, Li Heng stood at the bow of the boat, calmly followed the boat, full of spirit, originally slightly pale face is also a lot better.

When a row of mighty warships sailed to the middle of Weishui, only a hundred zhang remained across the opposite bank, and a howl similar to a fierce wind came from the black military formation, like a ghost crying wolf.

Li Heng, who was at the bow of the ship, inexplicably felt a burst of fear and unnaturalness, the whirring sound of breaking wind descended in the air, and what came into his eyes was a brilliant fireball, rumbling like thunder exploding in his ears.

The gray wooden deck was hit by the artillery, blasting out pieces of whirling wood chips, and the front row of ships was bombarded with artillery fire, the hull of the ship tilted, and the guards standing on the deck staggered with the owner and slowly sank with the hull.

Li Heng looked at the changes ahead in shock, forgetting to exclaim and forget the danger around him.

The sound of the cannon rumbling was like thunder and rage, venting all the anger on the warship that was sinking and floating on the Weishui.

On this day, the scales who stood beside the saint and looked at the sea of fire in front of him saw what the wrath of God was.
