Chapter 362: Be a Commander
Regardless of whether Jia Yi is willing or not, he is now the commander of Xue Yantuo's army, I don't know if the current Tang Dynasty population is too large to be used, just a small battle to punish Xue Yantuo, Li Er actually gave him 30,000 troops, you must know that the battle report from Ashina Simo clearly stated that Xue Yantuo only sent 50,000 troops to attack Ashina Simo, 30,000 **, plus some of the surrounding armies of other clans, I am afraid that the total is not less than 100,000, 100,000 against 50,000, Isn't it a bit too much of a fuss?
It's just that behind the 30,000 numbers, Jia Yi didn't see Li Er's fuss, but saw Li Er's determination to punish Xue Yantuo fiercely, and these 30,000 people were used by Jia Yi to attack Xue Yantuo, not to repel Xue Yantuo's soldiers.
The current Xue Yantuo army is at least 300,000, and Jia Yi is 30,000 after here, even if he adds those miscellaneous armies, there are only 100,000 numbers, and 100,000 against the other party's 300,000, although it is only a threefold difference, but this is a full 200,000 more people, Jia Yi really doesn't know whether he is going to punish Xue Yantuo or be punished by Xue Yantuo this time.
Before the army set off, Jia Yi had already made up his mind, this time he went to the grassland just to drive away the 50,000 people led by Dadushe, turn around and come back, and never make any stops.
If Li Er knew that Jia Yi hadn't gone to the battlefield yet, he would think about when he would come back, and I don't know how he would feel.
Jia Yi became the commander, and now a group of friends were very happy, especially Cheng Chumo, who was known for his favorite use of force, and he was even more happy and almost went to the room.
Cheng Chumo, who originally got the news that his father could not be the commander of the punishment of Xue Yantuo this time, already knew that there was absolutely nothing for him to do on the grassland this time, and he was even ready to have a good handful of sneers in Chang'an City, it was best to be able to annoy the emperor and kick him to the grassland as the commander.
But now that I heard that Jia Yi turned out to be the coach, what else did you say, they were all old brothers, hurry up and quickly determine your position first.
Looking at the partners standing in front of him, Jia Yi is the first and two big, don't these bastards know that it is easy to die on the battlefield, how can they rush forward one by one as long as they hear that there is a battle to fight, they are really not afraid of death.
"I said everyone, this is war, as long as it is a war, there is a possibility of death, are you not afraid of death?"
Before Jia Yi's words came out, he was collectively despised by all his partners, Cheng Chumo looked at Jia Yi with slanted eyes, just like he was ashamed to be with a coward like Jia Yi, if Jia Yi hadn't been designated by Li Er as the commander of the army going to the grassland this time, maybe Cheng Chumo would have turned around and left.
"Jia Yi, we are all people in the army, what we need most is military merit, if we don't have military merit, there is no big point in living, we can only be constantly bullied by the civil officials in Chang'an City, do you want to see your brothers being bullied?"
Cheng Chumo's words have all been said to this point, Jia Yi has nothing to say, he can't say what he thinks about in his heart, he still thinks about this in Chang'an City, if he offends these partners, even after returning from the victory on the grassland, he will not have a face.
"Since you all said so, what else can I say, Cheng Chu silently obeyed the order, this general ordered you to lead the Tanma camp and investigate all the movements of the enemy army, and there must be no mistake."
"Whoa."
After Cheng Chumo solemnly accepted Jia Yi's resignation, his face was full of ecstasy, holding a token that Jia Yi threw at him, happy like an ignorant child.
Then Li Hui, Wei Chi Baolin and others also got Jia Yi's resignation, as for this time, Changsun Chong didn't come here to make trouble for Jia Yi, this is not that he thinks more clearly, but his father is now a real civil official, so it is impossible for him to come over and mix with Jia Yi.
Soon, Jia Yi led 30,000 soldiers armed to the teeth and marched quickly towards the grassland.
At the same time, the war on the plateau finally started, and the complacent Lu Dongzan was guilty of a 100,000-strong army against the 50,000-strong horses of the Tang Dynasty, which was really not a big deal.
However, before the cavalry in the front row rushed to the front of Niu Jinda, he heard a loud rumbling sound, which startled Lu Dongzan, and the direction of the loud noise was a burst of flames, and he watched the flames swallow the front row of cavalry in an instant, and then his eyes fell on the hands and feet and internal organs of those who were flying everywhere.
Lu Dongzan, who was full of horror, really didn't know what was going on, why the soldiers who were fine just now turned into broken corpses all over the ground after a loud bang, and this phenomenon that was obviously beyond his cognition made him give the order to withdraw the army as soon as possible.
Niu Jinda, who did not move, looked at the retreating Turkic army and smiled very happily.
This is the role of the mine that the Ordnance Superintendent has just successfully developed, and at the beginning he was very worried about how much effect this novelty gadget, but now he is very satisfied when he sees the effect, but it is a little troublesome when he goes to dismantle the mine for a while, and God knows if he will be blown up to the sky when his own people are not careful.
In order to avoid this situation, Niu Jinda decided to abandon the mines that had been buried in the soil and had not been stepped on by the Tibetan soldiers, and directly asked the soldiers to shoot intensively at the mine area with arrows, detonating those mines that had not been detonated by the Tibetan people.
The attack of the Tubo people had just begun, and it ended after dropping the corpse under the action of the mines, and then it was the time for Niu Jinda's attack, and this time he received an order from Li Er that he and Tubo would not give him a chance to turn over again.
The soldiers who have been trained for many years under his command have finally come in handy now, Niu Jinda, who is not worried about the problem of thin oxygen on the plateau, has absolute confidence in this battle, and it will be absolutely difficult for the Tubo people to escape from his palm this time.
What the Tubo people did to Songzhou last time, Niu Jinda has already remembered vividly, and his mind keeps recalling all the evils created by the Tubo people in Songzhou City, and now the Tang Dynasty also has an army that can gallop on the plateau, and it is time for the Tubo people to taste the evil fruits they planted before.
Niu Jinda's offensive is like a bamboo, and now it is just a pursuit all over the mountains, and the Tubo people have no determination to fight with Niu Jinda after being frightened by mines, and they began to hide all over the world like rats, so that Niu Jinda searched on the plateau for a long time, but the real war has not been carried out a few times.
Niu Jinda originally wanted to have a good war, but he couldn't find the army of the Tubo people at all, and his depressed colleagues could only march towards the capital of Tubo according to the map, hoping to capture Luo and completely incorporate the Tubo people into the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
The morale-boosting Tang soldiers were not hindered much along the way, and slowly advanced in the direction of Luo Xu. In Luo, the Tubo people are sitting like pins and needles, Songtsen Gampo's face has turned black into the bottom of the pot, Lu Dongzan's face is full of embarrassment, he doesn't know why the army of the Tang Dynasty has such powerful weapons, so that the Tubo soldiers don't do it at all, they can only temporarily cheat, but the whole Tubo is so big, if you want to cheat, you can avoid it.
Hearing that Niu Jinda's army was heading towards Luoqi, Songtsen Gampo knew that if he didn't make a decision now, when Niu Jinda brought people to Luoqi, it would be time for Tubo to really perish.
"National teacher, do you have anything to say now?"
"Zampu, I underestimated Datang's combat power, if I had known that they had such a powerful weapon, I would never have chosen to go to war with **."
"." Songtsen Gampo slapped the table so hard that everyone in the room was startled.
Isn't it just, no one is a fool, knowing that they can't fight, and they still have to fight, it's strange that Lu Dongzan blindly chose to go to war without inquiring about the reality of **, so all these deaths are Lu Dongzan's alone.
It's just that now it's a life-and-death situation, and it's really not a good time to be accountable, and thinking about what to do is the most important issue to consider at the moment.
The big chiefs in the house are all people who have been subdued by Lu Dongzan with Songtsan Gampo, so they are extremely happy in their hearts when they see Lu Dongzan eating deflated, but when they come, they don't care what is going on with them, as long as they are Tubo people, they will be taken care of by **.
"Zampu, why don't we join Datang, this can not only reduce the damage of our soldiers, but also prevent Datang from killing us."
Surrender is a terrible habit, once you surrender, no matter what kind of battle it is in the future, you will choose to surrender again, just like this chief, now that you see the momentum of the **, you are still ready to choose to surrender.
Songtsen Gampo looked at the chief with a gloomy gaze, and although he wanted to say that he would pull him out and behead him, but now that he thought about it, if he didn't want his soldiers to die too much, he had to choose this method.
Songtsen Gampo knew what kind of fate he would have after they chose to surrender, although he was unwilling in his heart, he still stood up from the futon, talked helplessly, and chose the wisest choice at the moment.
The thunderous Tubo army finally chose the ending by surrendering, which made many people fall through their eyes, and while showing their admiration for the Tang Dynasty's army, they also expressed deep contempt for Songtsen Gampo.
In the end, Songtsen Gampo was sent to the Tang Dynasty and became another emperor captured alive by the Tang Dynasty.
