Lu Dongzan, who didn't believe in evil at first, immediately felt that he couldn't blame Da Gu Ri for the start of the war.

Where is this a remnant of the defeated army, it is clearly a super elite army!

Lu Dongzan attacked from three sides at the same time, but his troops were half on the hill, and the Tang army on the hill was not moved at all, and it was not until his troops were up to two-thirds that the Tang army began to attack.

The archers covered the infantry charge, the three commanders were all in person, and each squad cooperated very tacitly, which showed that they were not afraid, in the face of so many enemies, there was no panic, and they fought in an orderly manner, which made Lu Dongzan very surprised.

He also quickly understood why so many people could not attack this mountain.

First of all, there were too many corpses on the hillside, and the Tang army launched an attack when the soldiers crossed these corpses.

Secondly, archers, the bows and arrows of the Tang army are already stronger than yours, and they are condescending, and the range is much farther than yours, which can well cover the charge of their teammates, and the archers of the Tang army are not standing still, they are also pressing with the infantry, shooting to a round, they take a few steps forward, stretching their bows and arrows in the process of walking, and when they stop, they shoot immediately.

And the archers of Tubo are hiding behind, the front is covered by shield soldiers, their terrain is low, the field of vision is not as good as the Tang army, there are buddies in front of the block, it is difficult to see the situation in front, their arrows basically fall behind the archers of the Tang army, which is why the Tang army has been fighting for so long, and the arrows seem to be inexhaustible, because the battles are all in the middle of the mountain, just pick it up after the fight, and the enemy sends it, every time you finish the fight, the arrows are doubled.

And the archers of the Tang Army, who never shoot at the enemy in front, simply ignore it, and concentrate on shooting at the back, this bow and arrow is an arc, you many people, I just need to shoot into the pile of people.

The people in front, of course, were handed over to the infantry to solve, they stayed here to kill people, and what strategies and tactics had nothing to do with them anymore. As a result, the soldiers of Tubo, in the face of the Tang army's charge, not only had to fight, but also had to pay attention to their feet, and more importantly, they always heard the screams of their companions later, which was very panicked.

Finally, the mountain is conical, the higher it goes, the smaller the range, although the Tubo army is superior, but this circle can only stand so many people, the front has to die, and the back can make up.

Tang Jun is always one-on-one, not saying one against two.

The combat effectiveness of the Tang army, especially in the early Tang Dynasty, is really not covered, because the Tang people are very martial, and many literati are willing to be generals, but at the same time, the culture of the Tang Dynasty is very prosperous, so the quality of this soldier is high, like the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, they are either beggars or hooligans, how can that kind of army win the battle.

The Tang Dynasty was the strongest dynasty in Chinese history that combined civil and military affairs, so there were later Jiedu envoys to make chaos, because most of the Jiedu envoys were both civil and military, and the military, government, and administration were grasped with one hand. The Song Dynasty had a developed culture, but the military was relatively poor, and the Han Dynasty had a strong military, but the culture was still being formed.

Tens of thousands of troops are below, but they just can't gnaw on this hill.

In just half an hour, Lu Dongzan ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

Immediately the cheers of the Tang army were heard on the mountain.

It's not that it can't be attacked, it's just that Lu Dongzan thinks that the loss is too great to fight like this, but in fact, it can't be done, and their father and son are all fighting for breath, so they have spent so much time here. Because it was these three people who ambushed them at the beginning, and now they are trapped in the mountains, and the turtles in the urn must have wanted to be ashamed, but they didn't beat them, which made it even more embarrassing, so they continued to fight.

After all, Lu Dongzan was past the time of youth and vigor, and when he saw the situation, he still stopped fighting, and ordered a general to lead 10,000 soldiers to besiege the three of them here, that is, to trap them, and also ordered: "These three people can't stay, when they run out of ammunition and food, they will definitely choose to charge, you must kill all three of them, if one escapes, I will ask you." ”

"The last will obey."

Just then, a sentry flew in.

"Prime Minister Qi, a large army suddenly came to the Heyuan area."

"Could it be that the reinforcements of the Tang Army have arrived?"

Lu Dongzan exclaimed.

"Judging by what they are wearing, it should be Tuyuhun's troops."

Lu Dongzan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it turned out that his subordinates were defeated, and it couldn't be better, so he didn't have to run again, and asked, "How many of them are there?" ”

"Many, many, too many to count."

This answer made Lu Dongzan almost cut down the sentry without drawing his sword, and raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Nonsense, I don't know how many soldiers Tuyuhun has, I can't count anything, I think you are deliberately trying to disturb the morale of the army." ”

"The villain doesn't dare, it's—it's true, that army is no less than ours."

Of course, Lu Dongzan knew that this person didn't dare to lie to him, but he really couldn't understand when this Tuyuhun had so many troops, and he couldn't help frowning and thinking.

Daguri immediately said, "Father, let's go and see for yourself." ”

Lu Dongzan nodded.

After a long time, Da Guri finally came back, "Father, there is really a huge army coming towards us, and it is not the Tang army, it is Tuyuhun's people. ”

Lu Dongzan was silent when he heard this.

"Father, we need to get ready." Daguzhi gasped.

Lu Dongzan shook his head and said: "It seems that the princess of Honghua is pouring out of the nest this time, if this is the case, they must also come with the determination to fight with us, if they fight at this time, it will be disadvantageous to our army, and they will come out of the nest, and the follow-up is weak, when they are exhausted, we can defeat them in one fell swoop." ”

Saying so much, to sum it up, just one word, withdraw.

The Tibetan army immediately retreated to Bailan Mountain.

Wang Fangyi, Zhao Zhiman, Wang Xuance and other Tang army soldiers on the mountain were stupid, why did all the Tubo army withdraw?

"General, why did the enemy withdraw?"

"Isn't it a trick to lure the enemy?"

Wang Xuance shook his head and said: "I don't think so, just a little bit of us, they can't mobilize the people to lure us down the mountain, I think something must have happened?" ”

"Then let's run away."

A soldier said excitedly.

It's all surviving, it's so TM exciting.

Wang Fangyi said: "Don't act rashly for the time being, and let's see." ”

When it was close to evening, I saw that the north was thick with dust, and a huge team had been pressed over, and there were countless people in the dark.

The officers and soldiers of the Tang Army on the top of the mountain were all stunned, and they stood on a high place to watch, which was too magnificent.

After a while, a vanguard army came to the foot of the mountain, only to see a few people coming up the mountain, shouting from afar: "The two generals above are Wang Xuance and Wang Fangyi?" ”

Wang Fangyi replied: "Exactly, who are you?" ”

"It's really good, we are Tuyuhun people, and we have come to support you on the orders of the queen."

Wang Xuance was surprised when he heard this: "This is impossible, how can Tuyuhun have so many troops." ”

Wang Fangyi shouted: "I don't know who is leading the army? ”

"It's our queen who leads the army herself."

At this moment, only a crisp and beautiful voice was heard, "Two generals Wang, Zhao Tingshi, are you okay?" ”

Wang Fangyi fixed his eyes and saw a general in silver armor waving at them as he walked up the mountain.

It was Princess Honghua.

Wang Fangyi was overjoyed and said, "It's Princess Honghua, brothers, we are saved." ”

The officers and men of the Tang Army were suddenly overjoyed, some covered their faces and fell to the ground crying bitterly, some people hit their heads on the ground excitedly, and some hugged each other and cried.

It can be seen that they are not afraid of death, but there are some things in their hearts that are more important than life.

Wang Fangyi was the first to come to Princess Honghua, "The last general, Wang Fangyi, see Princess Honghua." ”

Princess Honghua hurriedly stepped forward to help Wang Fangyi and said, "The general is fine, Honghua is at ease." ”

Wang Fangyi was curious again: "The last general took the liberty to ask, who are they?" ”

Princess Honghua said very proudly: "They are all good men of my Tuguhun. ”

Lu Dongzan was not mistaken, almost all the men in Tuyuhun here, from fourteen or fifteen years old to sixty years old, there are all kinds of styles.

At the beginning, Li Zhi's policy was to decide to abandon Tuyuhun, mainly to protect the northwest, because in his opinion, Tuyuhun was a vassal state after all, and the northwest was already his own territory, even if it was a wheel area, Tuyuhun could not be compared with the northwest, which was not difficult to choose.

But this choice is actually very wrong, Tuyuhun is the throat of the place, if it is lost here, where can the northwest be defended, every time he sends troops to the northwest, he has to go under the nose of Tubo, which is why Li Shimin desperately had to take this place at the beginning. But Li Zhi can't be blamed, the commanders all went out, and a group of Wenchen surrounded him.

Of course, Princess Honghua also received a letter from Li Zhi, after all, she is a princess of the Tang Dynasty, of course she understands what Li Zhi is thinking, but she is also a heroine among women, not an ordinary woman, this woman does not let her eyebrows, she is not willing to be a slave of this country. at

She knew that after Wang Fangyi and their stubborn resistance in front, she immediately made a decision, called on all the men of Tuyuhun to get on the horse, follow her to fight Tubo to the death, and let the woman take the child to the border, if they are defeated, then flee back to the Tang Dynasty.

After two years of development, Princess Honghua's prestige here is much higher than that of her husband, and the queen is prancing on the horse, if a man does not dare to get on the horse, will he still have the face?

In addition, Tuyuhun is also a nomadic people, and people are soldiers when they get on horses.

So they took all their belongings and rushed over, wanting to fight to the death with Tubo, there was no logistics, no strategy, and they were playing with Tubo.

You have beaten my house many times, is it unbearable, the only thing I can do is to take a kitchen knife and fight with you.

But Lu Dongzan, the old fox, how can he fight hard with Tuyuhun, what life do I have, what life do you have, are you worthy? If Li Zhi wants to work hard, then you can still think about it.

Wang Fangyi, Wang Xuance, Zhao Zhiman and a cadre of Tang army soldiers, they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when they heard this, of course they were not ashamed of themselves, but for their emperor, look at the princess Honghua, they were not afraid, and poured out of the nest, if Li Zhi had given them more troops earlier, they would not have fought to this point at all, and their elite was also lost, more than 20,000 elites, and now there are only more than 3,000 people left.

Princess Honghua asked again: "By the way, the three generals, what about the enemy army?" ”

Wang Fangyi said: "Back to the princess, the enemy army has just withdrawn. ”

Princess Honghua said: "That's really good, the three generals are very kind to Tuyuhun, the little woman can't repay it, the three generals go back to China quickly, and I'll leave it here." ”

In this case, she doesn't think of herself as a princess, a queen, or a woman who defends her homeland.

Wang Fangyi hurriedly said: "The princess is going to fight a decisive battle with Tubo? ”

Princess Honghua snorted coldly and said, "He bullied people too much, we can't bear it anymore, so we have to make a decision with him today." ”

Wang Fangyi knew her intentions, this army looked spectacular, but in fact, it was mixed, and its combat effectiveness was definitely not as good as the Tubo army, so Princess Honghua must want to take advantage of this momentum to fight to the death with Tubo, if this momentum retreated, then they must not be Tubo's opponents, but Lu Dongzan did not choose to fight with it here, but immediately retreated, it can be seen that Lu Dongzan also knew that Princess Honghua was a wave, as long as she blocked it, it was a victory, and hurriedly said: "No, no, Your Royal Highness Princess, Things have not yet reached this point, Your Highness must not act rashly, I think Your Majesty must be withdrawing troops from Liaodong, and it will not be long before our reinforcements arrive. ”

When Princess Honghua heard this, Dai frowned, she knew Li Zhi's character too well, and she really didn't necessarily send reinforcements.

Wang Xuance said: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, Fang Cai Lu Dongzan saw that Her Royal Highness the Princess came down, and immediately withdrew his troops, it can be seen that he wants to avoid his edge, he will never fight with us, he must choose to hold the Bailan Mountain, this natural danger, their strength is not weaker than ours, and the terrain is advantageous, it is difficult for us to defeat them, now we should withdraw to the Heyuan area, rectify the troops and horses, and wait for him to attack, if he does not come, we will also recapture the Heyuan area, if he comes, then in the decisive battle with it, our chances of winning are higher." ”

Princess Honghua thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, just listen to the words of the two generals." ”
