Chapter 81: Capture the Bridge (6)

The huge shouts echoed on both sides of the Poyi River, and even the horses of the Tubo people felt this power and kept scraping the ground with their horses' hooves.

Standing on a high place, Xi Dongzan gently stroked the mane of his beloved horse, trying to calm it down, the Tang people's shouts made his brows furrow, he didn't expect that this small group of people was more tenacious than he imagined, it seemed that it was difficult to solve it quickly with arrows alone, he was a little worried, whether there was a hidden secret in this that he didn't know, although with his own cleverness, he couldn't imagine what the Tang people would do, but it was a huge empire, like the black curtain of the sky, which made people breathless.

The sky is about to dawn, and the wall of fire behind the Tang people is decreasing, and it will soon be extinguished, and it can't be stalemate any longer, otherwise even if this team of people is annihilated, it will make the other Tang people even more angry, and Xi Dongzan made a decision in an instant.

"Order two battalions on the left and right, each with five hundred men, to rush forward and annihilate them all." Frowning, looking at the arrogant Tang figure less than a hundred steps away, he couldn't be sure for a while whether it was the person he was looking for, but he just gave orders one after another.

Of course, he still didn't plan to use his command, the lives of the Tibetan people were too precious, and they had to be saved for the most useful moment.

As for the land of Boru, which was already about to be abandoned, the land was gone, so what was the use of man? Let them do their last thing for the great sons of the gods.

Soon, the trumpets sounded one after another, and the shouts of the Tang people gradually dissipated, and from both sides of the bridge, countless torches were held high, rushing towards the small group of people surrounded by them, and soon the light of the fire would drown out the small black shadow.

Xi Dongzan looked at their chaotic appearance, there was not much surprise, eight or nine times the troops, tired can also exhaust these Tang people.

It's been a while since I came to this era, and Liu Ji has experienced this kind of white-knuckle fighting more than once, but when those Tubo foot soldiers holding torches and knives and guns shouted in a mess, and rushed up, they still couldn't help but have blood gushing, adrenaline surged, and excitement overflowing, as if in this 16-year-old body, they had never been afraid of these two words.

Of course, this is just a false appearance, and the nightmare that once woke him up is a living fact.

Today's Liu Ji is really not afraid of death at all, there is even a hint of a smile in his eyes, and a bloodthirsty pleasure rises in his heart, and it is impossible to distinguish whether it belongs to the original owner or the real self, perhaps, it has become one.

At this time, he wore a five-pound, eleven-tael, iron-made all-inclusive helmet, not the scarf of ordinary soldiers, and the armor on his body was composed of 1,752 pieces of iron, each of which was strictly two inches long and seven minutes wide, each of which had to be carefully forged by dozens of craftsmen, and each piece was tightly tied to the whole piece of cooked cowhide by a cowhide rope, from the cheeks, ears, back of the neck, neck to the body, upper arms, lower abdomen, thighs, knees and calves, covering tightly, this is not counting. A bronze mirror about 50 centimeters wide on the chest is sharpened to reflect the figure, and it is an important part, adding another layer of protection, the same goggles, there is another piece on the back, this is the most common equipment of the Tang sergeant.

Bright Light Armor!

Liu Ji, who was fully equipped and armed to the teeth, unprovokedly remembered a very famous comic book movie "Iron Man" in later generations, behind him, there were 150 Iron Men in the same costume, and across the Poyi River, there were tens of thousands of Iron Men in the same costume, and around the Tubo people's ruling area, there were more than 200,000 Iron Men in the same costume, and in the territory of the Tang Dynasty, there were more than 700,000 Iron Men in the same costume, which is the most direct embodiment of the national strength of the Tang Dynasty.

This is the confidence of the Son of Heaven in Chang'an City who has been open for 40 years and has always spared no effort.

This is the confidence of Gao Xianzhi to dare to take 20,000 athletes to 800 miles and face a large number of foreign armies alone.

It is also the confidence that he dares to stand here and face thousands of Tibetan people!

Those who are stubborn and stubborn should be in front of the battle.

"Death!"

Until these Tubo light foot soldiers were already approaching, they could see the expressions on their faces clearly, Liu Ji grabbed the handle of the Mo knife, and gently lifted it, and the two-meter-long blade brought out a puff of soil, which was lifted above his head, with a strong wind and the earthy smell of the soil, and slashed straight over.

There are no fancy, and the speed is not fast, but the other party just can't dodge, because his left and right are full of people, and the only space that can move can only be in front of him, and the first thing the middle-aged Bolu foot soldier did was to throw away the torch, and then grab the blade with his bare hands, trying to block his split.

In the eighth century AD, the world's iron production was not as good as that of a township steel smelter in later generations, not to mention the quality, most of these Bolu foot soldiers were holding sharpened wooden poles, not even the head of the arrow did not have a bit of iron, this middle-aged man can have an iron knife, is already a hundred people like a sharp bone, but this kind of iron knife, is just a piece of iron.

"Bell!"

The thirty-pound Mo knife blade is like a heavy hammer, so that he even knelt down directly with the knife, until there was no way to avoid it, the sharp blade broke through the felt hat on the top of the head, the skull, and the plasma burst out, without waiting for the blade to the end, Liu Ji twisted against the trend, on the side of his body, while dodging a wooden gun, his legs penetrated the force, stabilized the lower plate, the strength of the waist and abdomen suddenly appeared, his hands dragged along the trend, and the long blade of the knife suddenly went from the front to the back, turned a circle, and arrived in front of him.

Sweep through the army!

The blade of the blade, which was one and a half meters long, was longer than the wooden spear of the Boru, and suddenly swept like this, suddenly forming a concentric circle with his body as the center, and all creatures within this circle had only one result.

Death.

"Ahh

Many of the Buru foot soldiers who couldn't catch up didn't scream until the moment their upper body left their lower body.

"Shoot the arrows!"

The reason why he has not made a move is that the other party, like them, is all the locals who were forcibly recruited by the Tubo people, and the second is that the Tang people did not give an order, or if they gave an order, it can be used in Tang language, and they can't understand it at all.

In the three directions, the Tang people are all in the same formation, from his point of view, looking at the past, it is like three clusters of arrows aimed at the enemy, and the ones located in the arrows are all the ones with the highest official position in the Tang army without exception, such as the young Tang people in front of him.

What surprised him even more was that every Tang foot soldier in front of him was wearing well-made full-body armor, which was a remarkable thing, even if it was the cavalry led by the Tubo nobles, the armor rate was less than fifty percent, among them were both heavy horses with all the men and horses, and there were also slaves who only wore light armor, and the Tang people, whether it was a hundred or so people here, or the tens of thousands of people across the river behind them, all of them were like this, which made the balance in his heart slightly tilt towards the Tang people, after all, everyone wanted to be attached to a strong man.

So, the small group of archers of the Tang people, who had been silent, finally raised their voices, and with his order, more than forty arrows flew towards their colleagues who were less than thirty paces away.

The tragic battle began, and the small formation of the Tang people, like a small boat in the ocean, was annihilated by the turbulent waves, and stubbornly poked its head out.
