After the order was issued, Zhao Ziliang after careful consideration, and sent people to drive away all the Arab horses captured last night, now it is not a high-speed mobile march, but a cavalry battle, each person with an extra horse is a burden, and during the battle to use a war horse with a high degree of tacit understanding with themselves is absolutely advantageous, and those Arab horses captured last night are better than their own war horses, but there is no tacit understanding, but it is not conducive to the battle.

The soldiers sat on the sand to rest after feeding the horses, and some soldiers also took out dry food and water bags to eat and drink to replenish their strength.

After Zhao Ziliang entered Central Asia, because he had the identity of an envoy, he usually did not wear a cloak, but at this time, he was about to fight, and it was not appropriate to wear civilian clothes, so he put the drape on his body with the help of two servants, and after the black and shiny armor and helmet were put on his body, Zhao Ziliang's temperament immediately changed.

The west wind blew the flags rattling, the white helmets on their heads swayed in the wind, and although the soldiers sat on the sand to rest and eat, they did not make a sound, and the team was still very neat.

Zhao Ziliang rode his war horse Wuli to the front of the military formation, took out a monocular, and observed the distant terrain around him while observing whether the enemy appeared.

After observing for a while, Zhao Ziliang said to Chu Ge: "No trace of the enemy has been found, release the eagle!" ”

"No!" Chu Ge agreed, beckoned to the back, and a soldier stepped forward and stretched out his arm to help the iron armor, and a mighty eagle stood on the arm.

The soldier kept stroking the feathers on the eagle's neck with his hand, then raised his arm upwards and shouted, "Go! ”

The eagle let out a chirp and spread its wings into the air, and after a few flutters in the air several meters long, it was seen to rise into the air, hover in the air for a circle, and then try to fly ahead.

After only a few minutes, I saw the eagle flying back, it kept chirping and hovering in the air, the soldiers who raised the eagle looked up at the posture of the eagle flying in the sky, listened to the chirping, and then said to Zhao Ziliang and Chu Ge: "General, captain, the enemy appeared six miles ahead and advanced towards our army, the marching speed slowed down, and the team is sorting out the formation in the process!" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said to Chu Ge: "Order, all of you get on the horse and line up to check the situation of armor, helmets, weapons, bows and arrows!" ”

"No!" Chu Ge agreed, and immediately shouted in high spirits: "The general has an order, the enemy army is coming, all of them are on the horse and line up!" Check your armor, helmets, weapons, and bows! ”

"Boom・・・・・・" Everyone turned over and checked their equipment, and after the inspection, they controlled the war horse and sat on the horseback.

Zhao Ziliang picked up the monocular again to observe the front, and in less than two minutes, the figure of the enemy's cavalry finally appeared in the field of vision of the monocular, and the cavalry was trotting towards this side, and the smoke and dust of the army marching appeared in the sky, which was still because Zhao Ziliang was standing on a high place and used a telescope, if it was not in a high place, there was no telescope, and it would definitely not be visible.

After a few more minutes, the Arab 500 cavalry advanced to two miles in front of the sand dune heights where Zhao Ziliang and the others were, and the smoke and dust brought by the march were even greater, and then the general at the front of the other party raised his hand and shouted loudly, and saw that the Arab 500 cavalry changed from trotting to walking, and the originally somewhat scattered formation began to adjust during the walk.

The distance between the two miles is not far, Zhao Ziliang can clearly see the clothes and figure of the other party's main general from the monoculars, because everyone on the other side is covered with their faces, so they can't see the other party's appearance. The reason why Zhao Ziliang was sure that he was the leading general of the 500 cavalry was because he was at the front of the team, and behind him there was an army commander, a herald with a command flag on his back, a flag bearer, and a close guard.

Zhao Ziliang put away the binoculars, rode his horse from the left side of the military formation to the right, and roared while galloping: "Soldiers, we were originally ordered to send envoys to the Zhaowu countries, since ancient times, there has been a practice of the two countries not killing each other, but these big cannibals hide their identities and want to strangle us, so even the robbers are not as good as the robbers, and now these big cannibals dressed as horse bandits are here again, they have five hundred cavalry, and we only have less than two hundred horsemen, but this general is not afraid, because you are the most powerful warrior in my Tang Dynasty, all of them are one as ten, Even if they are doubled, we can still defeat them, since these big cannibals don't follow the rules, then let's teach them a lesson, let them see how brave our Datang soldiers are! Let them know that the power of our Datang is inviolable."

"Roar, roar, roar・・・・・・" everyone involuntarily let out a neat roar at the same time. It is not difficult for Zhao Ziliang to motivate morale in battle, this kind of thing was done once every mobilization meeting in his previous life, and he can be said to be familiar with it.

By the time Zhao Ziliang had finished boosting his morale, the Arabs' team had advanced to about 500 meters ahead, which was already the closest distance between the two military formations.

The Arabs also stopped under the command of Rapple, and the generals on both sides were a little puzzled when they saw him raise his hand and order to stop advancing, but they still carried out the order, and when the whole team stopped, one of the generals stepped forward and asked, "General, why did you stop?" If the other party rushes over at this time while our foothold is unstable, then we will suffer! ”

Lapule shook his head and said, "No, since they have set up a military formation, they have agreed to have a decisive battle with us in a dignified manner, and they will not do such a thing!" Don't you think where they are now and where we are now and where we are now are in their favor and not ours? ”

The general looked at it, but it wasn't, "Yes, general!" They are in high places, and we are in low places, and if the enemy and us charge each other, they can take advantage of the condescending terrain to rush down with a strong impact, and our army will definitely not be able to resist! General, what do we do now? ”

Aple shook his head and said, "Even if they don't rush down, just wait for us to rush up, we will suffer a big loss!" We can't stupidly rush upward, you lead two hundred men around the sand dunes and high ground to attack them from behind, and this general will see how their lord will respond! ”

"Yes, General!"

The general immediately ordered two hundred men and horses to bypass the sand dunes and heights from the left and right sides and headed towards the rear of Zhao Ziliang's army, apparently to steal from behind.

How could Zhao Ziliang not understand what the other party wanted to do, the sand dunes and heights were on both sides of slopes, and they were all sand that was easy to slide, and it was impossible for the Arab cavalry to rush up from both sides, so they could only go around to the back, and because Zhao Ziliang's side did not have many troops, it was impossible to divide the troops to deal with the two hundred Arab cavalry that bypassed.

After Zhao Ziliang weighed the pros and cons, he quickly made countermeasures, Aple's division of troops was in his hands, if Aple gathered five hundred cavalry together to confront him, he would definitely not be able to play, he and his two hundred subordinates were not familiar with the place here, and they did not know the weather changes in the desert, and the confrontation would be very unfavorable to him, but Aple chose to divide the troops in order to reduce the unfavorable factors brought by the terrain, which gave Zhao Ziliang the opportunity to concentrate superior forces to annihilate the opponent, and Zhao Ziliang knew that on the way to come, This sand dune plateau is more than twenty or thirty miles long, and the two hundred cavalry of the opponent's division must walk back and forth for more than forty miles if they want to attack from behind, and it is impossible to run back and forth in this desert for two hours, and after two hours, the daylilies are cold!

"Chu Ge, send someone to inform Brehan and let them all hide, don't be caught by the big cannibal! and find someone to keep an eye on the two hundred cannibal cavalry."

"No!"
