Chapter 436 A tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood!
Nearly 200,000 troops besieged Liangning Prefecture in three ways, and the 50,000 Tubo defenders in Liangning Prefecture panicked, if they didn't know that Stanley, the king of Tubo, had led an army of 50,000 to help, the Tubo defenders would have abandoned the city and fled.
But what about Stanley's reinforcements, these 100,000 soldiers and horses are already the last strength of Tubo, and among these troops, at least thirty percent are newly recruited new troops, and there is no combat effectiveness at all.
Stanley never expected that Zhang Xuan would abandon Li Gong and attack Tubo first. Moreover, it also used such a huge amount of money to gather 200,000 troops one by one, on the surface, it was to recover Liangning Prefecture before the snow, but in fact, this is to destroy the country of Tibet!
Stanley was desperate in his heart, and his confidence in a decisive battle with Zhang Xuan's army was seriously lacking.
The Stanley reinforcements quickened their pace and entered Liangning Prefecture two times before Zhang Xuan's Third Route Army arrived in Liangning Prefecture. When rì, Stanley immediately sent an envoy to Zhang Xuan's army and begged to surrender. It means that he can bow down to the emperor of China and be a minister forever.
And just when the envoy of Stanley surrendered, Nanjiyun's 10,000 cavalry had already descended from heaven like divine soldiers, occupying the Dulan Fortress, an important grain and grass town for the Tubo people. The 5,000 Tibetan defenders fled without a fight, and Nan Jiyun led the army to pursue, and on the shore of the Wuhai Sea, he surrounded Yang Lian's army and killed all the 5,000 Tibetan troops, leaving no one behind.
On the shore of the Wuhai Sea, the murderous aura is pervasive, and the blood flows like a river.
In Zhang Xuan's big tent, the generals stood solemnly and murderously.
Stanley's envoy Mariro walked in with his head bowed in horror and bowed down in front of Zhang Xuan with Tibetan etiquette. He is no stranger to Zhang Xuan, because the Chinese emperor in front of him once led his army to kill in and out of Tubo, as if he was in a no-man's land, and he was famous in Tubo.
It's just that Mariro didn't expect Zhang Xuan to be so young.
"Tubo minister Mariro, meet His Majesty the Emperor of China!"
"Raise your head!"
Zhang Xuan smiled indifferently, "Stanley sent you, didn't you send a war letter to me?" ”
"The ministers did not dare to ÷ His Royal Highness the King of Fan ordered the ministers to come and send a letter of begging to His Majesty the Emperor. I, Tibet, would like to be a country under the command of His Majesty the Emperor of China, and I will never rebel forever! Please also ask His Majesty the Emperor to take a break from the wrath of the thunder! ”
Mariro knelt down in fear, a fine layer of cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.
Zhang Xuan smiled, looked around at the generals and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, at present, Nanba has led the army to take Dulan, and all the grain and grass supplies of the Tubo defenders have fallen into the hands of our army, and Yang Lian's 40,000 troops have arrived in Wuhai. The Hui army and horses are pressing on Xinghai, and Liangning Prefecture has fallen into the encirclement of our three-way Liwan army. At this time, Stanley is coming to surrender to me! ”
"Mariro, Xi Rì I once gave Stanley a chance∞ sent troops to destroy Trisong Detsen and support Stanley to ascend the throne. Then Stanley was capricious, and he took revenge, not only invading my Liangning Prefecture, but also killing and invading the border, enslaving my people, and committing a lot of blood debts! ”
"If I approve Stanley's begging, how will I face my people? I am a heavenly state, humiliated by the barbarians, I will return a tooth for a tooth, blood for a blood! ”
Bang!
Zhang Xuan suddenly slapped the handsome case and shouted, "Mariro, I won't kill you." You go back and tell Stanley that I won't give him a chance anymore. Let him quickly reorganize the army and fight with me, in this battle, the United will use his head to pay tribute to all the people who have been trampled and killed, and tell him that he will be undoubted! This time, I will not destroy Tibet, and I will not return to China! ”
Zhang Xuan's voice was cold and high-pitched.
Mariro fell to his knees, his face was like dirt, his shoulders trembled, and he was so frightened that he could not say a word.
"Cut off one of this man's arms and expel him!"
Zhang Xuan shouted violently.
Mariro was shocked and cried out, "Your Majesty the Emperor spares your life! Spare your life! The minister is not guilty! ”
Stanley was like a crazy leopard in Liangning Prefecture, waving the scimitar in his hand, and roared in the face of the generals, "Li Gong, that bastard, why didn't he attack Qinghai?" Why didn't he come to our aid? ”
"Han gǒu" these Han gǒu! ”
"He's going to destroy me! He doesn't give this king a chance to surrender, he wants to let the Tubo royal family cut off their children and grandchildren, what a vicious gǒu thief! ”
"Battle, sǐ battle! This king wants to fight a decisive battle with the Han gǒu, and swear to defend the land of Tubo! ”
The Tibetans will be silent.
At this point, although there were 100,000 soldiers and horses in Liangning Prefecture, there was a lack of food and grass, and it was besieged by the three-way army in the hinterland of Liangning Prefecture, and even the retreat route was blocked, and there was no other way out except for the sǐ battle.
However, the favorable terrain of the plain in front of Liangning Prefecture was occupied by Zhang Xuan's army, and the narrow terrain was not conducive to the impact of the Tubo cavalry battle formation.
The northeast of Liangning Prefecture is Helan Mountain, and even if the Tubo cavalry can break through the camp of the Hui army and fall into the mountains and forests, it is also a sǐ road. When the cavalry enters the mountains and forests, it is useless, and it is not at the mercy of others?
Almost all the troops in Tibet were gathered in Liangning Prefecture, and the defeat of this war was imminent. Therefore, the Tibetan army has long been ashamed, knowing that it will be defeated, where can there be any confidence and courage to fight.
Stanley roared for a long time, but did not get a response, and sat there panting, his eyes blank and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly.
Mariro, who had one of his arms cut off, turned pale, and he lay on the stretcher and gritted his teeth at Stanley and said, "My king, the enemy army is strong, and our army is difficult to beat." To fight the enemy before Liangning Prefecture must be a sǐ road. It is better to give up Liangning Prefecture, break through Yang Lian's camp from the west, fight out of the encirclement, retreat to the royal court, and think about the long term. ”
"My king, I can't hesitate Sichuan" If you continue to hesitate, our army will be trapped in Liangning Prefecture! ”
Mariro shouted hoarsely.
Stanley Huo Ran stood up, gritted his teeth, and said in a muffled voice, "That's it, pass the order, the whole army has it, kill Yang Lian's troops in the west, and strive to get out of the siege from Wuhan and retreat to Luoqi City!" ”
In fact, Yang Lian's department in the west is not 40,000 people, but 50,000 people, including 10,000 Shence army cavalry of Nan Jiyun.
The two joined forces and guarded the west side of the Liangning Order, blocking the back road of the Tubo soldiers and horses.
In the afternoon, the tide-like Tubo soldiers and horses rushed over from the front line of Liangning Prefecture, and the shouts shook the heavens and the earth, but it was also quite imposing.
It's just that from a distance from the position of Yang Lian and Nan Jiyun on the high slope, the formation of the Tubo soldiers and horses is messy, and the morale is low.
Yang Lian frowned, looked at Nan Jiyun and said hurriedly, "Brother Nan, the Tubo soldiers and horses are on the run, if our army avoids its edge for the time being, wait for it to escape, and then lead the army to cover up all the way, we will be able to surrender the soldiers without a fight!" ”
Nan Jiyun nodded. He knew in his heart that the 100,000 soldiers and horses of Tubo were eager to flee for their lives, and if their army blocked the way to fight with them, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties. If you try to avoid its edge for the time being, let it escape from the past, and then raise troops to chase and kill from behind, you can minimize the casualties of the soldiers.
Moreover, as soon as Stanley escapes, the main force led by Guo Ziyi and the Hui soldiers and horses will soon chase and kill, and the three-way army will surround and intercept them, and the Stanley soldiers and horses can still escape to the sky?
Seeing that Nan Jiyun agreed to his strategy, Yang Lian immediately ordered someone to give an order, and the army retreated to the two wings, giving way to the wilderness in the middle, hiding on both sides, and waiting for labor to wait and watch the changes.
Stanley led the Tibetan soldiers and horses to rush through the wilderness like locusts, frantically looking at the royal court and fleeing, along the way, throwing away armor and military flags and burdens everywhere.
I saw the Tibetan soldiers and horses rushing over.
Yang Lian immediately ordered someone to blow the horn of attack.
Kill!
The 50,000-strong army shouted and chased after them, the smoke and dust were billowing, and the horses' hooves were rushing like thunder. Nan Jiyun led 10,000 Shence troops to charge at the front, and as he gave the order, the rockets in the hands of the soldiers flew out like a raging storm, and they all fell into the formation of Tubo deserters.
The roaring explosion was mixed with the neighing of the war horses, fireworks erupted, and everywhere in the eye, countless Tibetan cavalry fell off their horses, and were immediately trampled into meat by the crazy horses' hooves.
Although there is no fighting spirit and they are bent on running for their lives, there are still 100,000 people in the end. After being chased and killed for more than 100 miles and wounding nearly 20,000 people, Stanley finally reorganized his army in anger and turned around from Quma to kill the allied forces of Yang Lian and Nan Jiyun, preparing to fight a decisive battle with the allied forces.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Guo Ziyi led the main army and horses to cover and kill from behind, and the 50,000 Hui army bypassed Zhaling Lake and approached Quma, and the remnants of Stanley's defeated troops gathered in Quma.
A day and night of fierce battles. Under the three-way attack, the remnants of Stanley broke and fled again, some of them were annihilated on the spot by the army, some of them fled to Xingsuchuan, and some of them fled to Wangtingluo City.
Zhang Xuan immediately ordered Yang Lian to lead his troops to chase and kill Xingsuchuan.
Zhang Xuan issued an order that all the remnants of the Tibetan army must be exterminated in the territory of Tubo, and the defeated army of Tubo must not be allowed to flee to the Western Regions.
On the other hand, led by Guo Ziyi, he chased and killed all the way to the Tubo royal court.
The momentum of the army is like a rainbow, and the remnants of the Tubo army are sleepy, lack of food and grass, and have no fighting spirit, therefore, one chases and kills the other and escapes, and after more than a dozen rì trips, the tens of thousands of remnants led by Stanley are less than 10,000, most of them are in the hands of the Modao army led by Li Siye, of course, a small number of them are scattered and fled into all parts of Tubo.
Ninta.
Stanley did not have any strength in his body, and fell on the grass by the river↓ The remnants of the thousands of Tibetan soldiers fell to the ground in twos and threes, panting like oxen≈ the scimitar in the had long since disappeared, and most of the horses had already been slaughtered on the road to satisfy hunger.
I can't escape, and I can't escape.
If this continues, what if you escape into the city of Logos?
The sound of the horse's hooves chasing behind him was faintly heard in his ears, and Stanley looked up at the sky sadly, and two cloudy tears slipped from the corners of his eyes.
He knew in his heart that his life had come to an end, and Tubo was also over.
At this moment, the mocking smile of his brother Trisong Dezan seemed to appear in front of his eyes. He raised his hand fiercely and grabbed it, but he grabbed a void.
Not far away, two of his personal guards suddenly rushed over with knives and stabbed Stanley in the chest, blood gushing out.
