There are more than 2,000 ships moored on the side of the Brahmaputra River, this ship is not very large, the largest one can only accommodate more than 40 people, and the remaining ships can accommodate up to 20 people, the Tibetans are mostly nomads, and the handiwork is very low, even this kind of small boat took several years to make, Gesar always hopes to get the shipbuilding technology like Dawu, if he can make a building boat, then no one can stop it down the river, but how can Dawu's technology be obtained? Not to mention Da Wu, even the technology of other princes will definitely not be given to him.

This time the 30,000 army is already Gesar's largest attack on the Central Plains in these years, in fact, this is not his reckless move to be bewitched by the Shadow Gate, attacking the Central Plains has been Gesar's goal for so many years, but for various reasons he can't make up his mind, now Liu Yuetian has become the Tianshui County Guard, and captured Hongnong County, if he is allowed to develop, there is no doubt that his strength will become stronger and stronger, and it will be even more difficult to conquer at that time, So Gesar wants to take advantage of the other party's unstable foothold to make a sneak attack, in his eyes, Liu Yuetian is only a teenager after all, and he has only been able to occupy Tianshui for a year, and there must not be many capable people under him, Songtsen Gampo is a famous general in Tibet, and even Gesar admires his commanding ability, as long as he occupies Tianshui, the army in Tibet will have a foundation, and at that time, Tianshui will be a direct threat to Chang'an.

30,000 elite soldiers and thousands of war horses all got on the boat, and with the order of Songtsen Gampo, the warship lifted anchor and sailed down the river to Tianshui.

A hundred miles north of the three towns of Tianshui, there is a dock fort, where hundreds of soldiers are stationed, and they have been stationed here for a long time in order to monitor the movements of the upper reaches of the Jinsha River.

As soon as it was dawn that day, the soldiers on the night vigil noticed that the upper reaches of the river were densely packed with numerous boats.

"Ahh It's not good, it's Gesar's soldiers, enemy attack, enemy attack! ”

The shrill sound of a whistle was immediately remembered in the dock fort, and a lieutenant ran out of his tent, and at a glance saw the ships approaching in the distance, and there was no edge at all, and the conservative estimate was more than a thousand.

"What? So much? ”

In the past, there were only a few hundred Tibetan troops at most, about two or three thousand people, but this time it was more than doubled? It seems that there are more than 10,000 people.

"Quick, immediately pass the book to the Tianshui Flying Pigeon, everyone will get up for me, ready to fight!"

There are only more than 300 people in the dock fort, led by a centurion, and their task is to deliver the news, if the opponent is not outnumbered, they can directly engage the opponent to delay the attack, but if the opponent is too numerous, then they can return to the three towns immediately, even if the dock fort is abandoned, there will be no punishment.

But how could this centurion run away without doing anything? They have a repeating crossbow in their hands, and they also have the iron bow that Liu Yuetian prepared for them, this kind of bow and arrow has a longer range, can reach a distance of fifty zhang, but the accuracy is not enough, and it can only be suppressed from a long distance, but it is just right to use it at this time.

More than 300 soldiers were soon dressed and all of them drew their iron bows, which were smeared with brimstone and ignited and turned into rockets to attack the ships.

"When the enemy ships come into range, follow my orders and hit the three small boats at the front first!"

The centurion gave the order, and everyone was ready.

Soon, the ships were heading towards here, led by three ships, with more than a dozen soldiers standing on them, and at this moment, the other party also saw the Tianshui troops not far away, and immediately shouted loudly, and they also picked up their bows and arrows to prepare to shoot back.

The centurion was unhurried, and gave the order as soon as the other party was in range.

"Attack!"

With a command, more than three hundred flaming arrows flew into the sky, shooting towards the three ships like streams of light.

Just this time, three wooden boats were ignited and turned into three fireboats, and the soldiers on them jumped into the river screaming.

The three wooden boats turned into three fires and rushed downward, and long wooden wedges were nailed into the river at the dock fort, and the burning wooden boats were blocked by the wooden wedges, forming a wall of fire.

The three ships that followed behind were also attacked by everyone's rockets, and in an instant, they also turned into fire ships, and as a result, more than a dozen ships soon caught fire, forming a thick wall of fire in the river.

Naturally, the Tibetan soldiers also reacted, they dropped their anchors one after another, some stood in the middle of the boat and began to shoot arrows towards the shore, and some prepared to land and attack.

After a while, thousands of Tibetan soldiers came ashore, and they rushed to this side with weapons in hand, while the Tianshui soldiers were not in a hurry, jumped on their horses one by one, and then rushed towards each other with crossbows in hand.

These more than 300 people don't look at the small number of people, but they are all Shile's elite troops, they are usually well-trained, and they are all chasing the wind and BMWs when they sit down, only to see them rush to the front of the other party like a violent wind, and they can't help but say that it is a volley, and in an instant, more than 1,000 people fell to the ground and suffered heavy casualties.

"Haha, you guys are all straw bales, grandpas don't play with you anymore, you don't want to die, just go to Tianshui to find us!"

The centurion led the men to turn their horses and run away without a trace, and they had completed their mission by killing nearly a thousand enemies on the spot.

"What's going on?"

Songtsen Gampo was standing on a big ship at the moment, and he was also surprised to see that the Tianshui army was so brave, and only more than 300 people could resist his own army of 1,000 people, no wonder Liang Ji's 30,000 soldiers and horses were also wiped out, and he was even more sure that it was a wise move for him to take refuge in Liu Yuetian.

"Dock!"

As the enemy had left, Songtsen Gampo ordered his flagship to come to shore and ordered the medics to disembark to treat the wounded, but very few of the more than a thousand were wounded, and more than eighty percent of them were killed on the spot, and even those wounded seemed to be rarely saved.

"Songtsen Gampo, this ...... Why are these Tianshui soldiers so powerful? ”

The prison soldier named Suo Lang was frightened into a cold sweat when he looked at the dead corpses on the ground, he had seen a lot of dead people, and even he liked to eat human flesh, but that was when he killed others, and now the Tianshui soldiers killed hundreds of his soldiers in the blink of an eye, which was faster than killing chickens, so he was afraid.

"Don't panic, my lord, where are the undead in war? Just now, we were also careless, as long as our soldiers wore armor and shields, the opponent's crossbow arrows would not work. ”

This Lord Solang didn't know anything about war, and he calmed down when he heard the other party say this.

"This Tianshui's crossbow arrows are really powerful, hum, this is exactly what I want!"

Songtsen Gampo had a hint of joy in his heart, and at this time he was already on Liu Yuetian's side.

"The army goes ashore and sets up camp!" Songtsen Gampo began to schedule.
