"Zamu, take your men to attack the enemy's right flank! Tell them that if there is no order to retreat, whoever takes a step back will be killed! Zhao Ziliang stared at Zamu murderously. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zamu only felt chills all over his body, and hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, the villain must restrain his subordinates, if they dare to retreat, they don't need the king's order, the villain will definitely make them regret it!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded with satisfaction: "Go ahead!" ”

"Yes, King!"

After Zamu returned to the formation, he immediately organized his men and horses to move to the left side of the large army formation, and began to personally lead the team to attack the right flank of the Tubo army.

A large number of horses' hooves soon spread far away, shouting and killing from far and near to the middle army and the right army, other soldiers on both sides heard the sound and turned their heads to look over, only to see thousands of cavalry on both sides are hedging against each other, before the contact melee, both sides did not use the cavalry bow to shoot, not can't, but no, the Tubo army is equipped with a bow in its weapons, but the bow is only equipped with the infantry, the cavalry has no bow, it is obvious that the Tubo people are not good at riding and archery, it seems that only the nomads of the northern steppe are proficient in riding and shooting.

"Oh hello hello······ Wow hello ······" The soldiers on both sides slammed into each other with slender spears, and there were bursts of strange screams from their mouths, and a series of sounds such as clattering and rumbling passed through, and finally collided, and some soldiers on both sides were stabbed and dropped off their horses or directly knocked to the ground.

Zhao Ziliang noticed that these Tibetan soldiers made a burst of strange cries when attacking, this strange habit and phenomenon almost existed in the barbarian armies he had seen, and it seemed that making such strange cries could raise their morale or bring strong psychological pressure to the enemy, causing panic and confusion to the enemy.

The soldiers of the Tibetan army only have slender spears and scimitars, and only the officers are equipped with knives, ordinary soldiers are only equipped with spears, but there is very little armor, only senior generals wear iron armor, and other middle and lower officers can only wear leather armor, and ordinary soldiers do not even have leather armor except for weapons, but the sheepskin mattresses they wear serve as leather armor.

After the official engagement, all kinds of strange roars spread, and there were constantly war horses and soldiers falling, compared with the Tubo soldiers of Qu Sangda, the servant army under the command of Zamu was no worse than their opponents in terms of combat quality, but their spirit and will to fight were worse than their opponents, after all, they were surrendered and reorganized into a servant army, they had lost their original bravery and sharpness, so although the right flank of the Tubo army was only 1,500 horsemen, they still had the upper hand in the battle, After half an hour of fighting, Zhamu's more than 2,000 servant troops were already at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.

Zhao Ziliang frowned, if he didn't send troops to reinforce Zamu, Zamu's servant army was likely to be defeated soon, and after observing for a while, he immediately ordered Chen Qing: "Go and give Zhao Bei an order, let him bring his more than 2,000 Tibetan mercenaries to reinforce Zamu, and crush the right flank of the enemy army for this king!" ”

"Yes, King!" Chen Qing agreed, and immediately conveyed the order to the herald.

Zhao Bei heard the drums, and after seeing the flags, he immediately took off the horse lance from the victory hook and instigated the war horse to run back and forth in front of the mercenary army formation composed of more than 2,000 Tubo young and strong people. ”

A Tubo man who was following Zhao Bei relayed his words in Tubo, and these Tubo mercenaries raised their weapons and shouted.

"Kill-" Zhao Bei clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and rushed out first with a horse lance, and the more than 2,000 Tubo mercenaries behind him also rushed out with their weapons one after another.

The general of the Tubo army saw that the Western Qin army had sent additional reinforcements, and he was a little anxious for a while, but there was no other way, he had 5,000 people in his hands, and 1,500 cavalry were arranged on the right flank, and only 3,500 cavalry were left in the middle army and the left flank.

The Tubo army immediately ordered the Chinese army and the left flank to launch a full-scale attack on the Western Qin army, and personally led the army to attack from the middle flank, wanting to use the central army and the left flank to open up the situation, as long as the Chinese army and the left flank can occasionally gain an advantage, they can make up for the crisis caused by the disadvantage of the right flank.

Zhao Ziliang smiled when he saw it and said to the generals and officials: "This general of the Tubo Army also seems to have some combat experience, knowing that his troops are insufficient and he cannot reinforce the right wing, and if he wants to recover the situation, he can only open the situation from the middle army and the left wing, but how can our Chinese army and the right wing be so easy to fight?" The order went down, ordering the first battalion of the heavy armored cavalry of the Ninth Army to attack the central army of the Tubo army, ordering the first battalion of the light cavalry of the ninth army to meet the cavalry on the left flank of the Tubo army, and ordering the first battalion of the archers of the ninth army to carry out long-range cruising and shooting on the periphery of the enemy's left flank! ”

Chen Qing immediately conveyed the order, the speed of the order was very fast, and the execution of the Western Qin army was also very fast, otherwise in such a short period of time, it was necessary to have to convey the order and carry out the order, if it was not for the well-trained army, it would be impossible to complete it before the enemy army rushed over!

When bursts of dazzling light shot from the opposite side, the generals and soldiers of the Tubo army couldn't help but close their eyes, and when they saw the scene on the opposite side, they couldn't help but exclaim, Iron Cavalry!

Tubo does not produce iron, and the iron tools used need to be exchanged from the Tang Dynasty and the surrounding small countries, so the iron tools are extremely precious in Tubo, which is also the reason why only the generals of Tubo can wear iron armor, and this Western Qin cavalry is actually wearing bright and shining iron armor, even the war horses are wearing shining steel armor, which makes the Tubo army can't help but drool, but they forget that although the iron armor is precious, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry equipped with iron armor is undoubtedly not comparable to ordinary cavalry.

The general of the Tubo army was red-eyed, and he shouted: "Sons, kill these cavalry of the Western Qin army, rob them of the iron armor, kill!" ”

"Kill!" The soldiers of the Tubo army roared and beat their horses and galloped wildly, rushing towards the heavy armored iron cavalry of the Western Qin army.

At this moment, the Tubo soldiers showed a side that was not afraid of death, and their morale soared, but they lost their minds, and in front of the heavily armored iron cavalry, the fear of death did not seem to play a big role.

"Shoot!" The captain of the Iron Cavalry Battalion roared, and pressed the four-meter and two-meter spear held diagonally down, the head and shaft of the spear pointed horizontally forward, the tail of the gun was pressed against the belt on the side of the saddle, and the cold gleaming spear head reflected a terrifying light in the sunlight.

"Boom-" The two sides collided, and the terrifying sound of a disgusting spear head piercing into the human body and the horse's body spread, and the strong Western Qin war horse knocked the Tubo horse to the ground, and the Tubo cavalry on horseback was also strung on the long gun barrel one by one, as the war horse continued to sprint forward, there were more and more Tubo cavalry strung on the gun barrel, and some of the four or five people were strung on a gun barrel one after another, and the strong pressure broke the gun shaft, which also reduced the burden on the war horse of the Western Qin ironclad cavalry.

The broken barrel of the gun made the Western Qin heavy cavalry lose the assassination effect of impact, and the cavalry on horseback quickly drew the horizontal knife on their waists and continued to slash the oncoming Tubo cavalry, a large number of Tubo cavalry were trampled to death by the war horse after being knocked down, more people were stabbed by spears, and some people were slashed and killed.

The result of the hedging of the light cavalry and the heavy cavalry was a fiasco, a one-sided defeat, these Tibetan troops, including the generals, had not seen the powerful impact of the ironclad cavalry group charge, which was definitely not something that could be resisted by individual strength, so the Tibetan generals and cavalry did not even have a chance to regret it.

Only one face-to-face charge, the oncoming 3,000 Tubo cavalry was annihilated by the impact of a thousand Western Qin heavy cavalry, and the right wing of the Tubo army was also defeated from the beginning after Zhao Bei led troops to reinforce, and gradually showed signs of being unable to resist, and the left flank of the Tubo army was defeated by the light cavalry and archers of the Western Qin after a combined long-range attack without close combat with the Western Qin light cavalry.

Then the Western Qin cavalry began the pursuit of the first Tubo rout, the right wing of the Tubo army was also greatly affected after the Chinese army was destroyed and the left wing was defeated, and a large area of rout appeared before the blink of an eye, Zhao Bei and Zhamu immediately led the troops to chase and kill the past, and the cavalry of the Western Qin army pursued until the Yalu River rushed into the camp of the Tubo army, and the battle ended after only one hour.

The soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, taking prisoners, and counting the spoils, Zhao Ziliang looked up and saw that it was still early, so he ordered all the remaining men and horses of the army to march into the camp of the Tubo army by the river, and the others continued to clean the battlefield, and the soldiers who took the prisoners were responsible for escorting the prisoners to the camp of the Tubo army by the river.

Zhao Ziliang walked into the big tent of the Chinese army, opened the stopper with a cowhide bag on the table and smelled it, it was goat's milk, and poured a big mouthful of it, before he instructed Chen Qing who came in: "While the sky is still dark, quickly send someone to the river to see the water depth and flow rate, and whether there is a place to cross the river within a radius of fifty miles above and below!" ”

Chen Qing agreed: "Yes, my lord, the scout camp has sent someone to deliver the news, the river in front of the camp can be crossed, and the water is not too deep, only on horseback!" ”

"Oh?" Zhao Ziliang put down the cowhide water bag, thought for a while and asked, "Did the scout camp send someone to cross the river?" ”

Chen Qing said: "It shouldn't be yet, this place has been occupied by the Tubo army before, and the scout posts in the scout camp don't have the ability to cross the river under their noses."

"Then let the scout camp send someone to touch it at night to see Qu Sanda's situation!"

"Yes, King!"
