Section 312 Attack or not?
There is no time in the army, Feng Xiaobao, who is chasing the Tubo people and running around, and the Tubo people play the game of you advance and I retreat, I advance and you retreat, because Feng Xiaobao is powerful, the Tubo people harass the four prefectures of Liangzhou very little. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
On this day, he received a document from Tonghuang County.
There are only four words: "The wheat will be ripe!" ”
Oh, gotta go home
So, Feng Xiaobao took 3,300 cavalry, 3,06 when he came, 3,003 when he returned, and the losses were very small.
Naturally, there is a large row of feasts, and meritorious deeds are rewarded.
Don't look at the small and small troubles, the Tubo people actually killed more than 6,000 for him!
This amount is definitely a lot, and what is even more rare is that it was obtained at the price of a small sacrifice of the Tang army.
When it is strong, it runs, and when it is weak, it fights, the Tang army is fast and sharp, and it also fights ambushes, and learns the habits of nomads to the full!
They are all unlucky tribes, and when they encounter the Tang army, which is armed to the teeth, very few can escape.
The Tang people in this era were in a time of vigor and self-confidence, as long as their generals dared to fight, their subordinates would naturally serve their orders.
The Hehuang region is the best situation in the entire Tang Empire against Tibet, but it has to survive the current hurdle to say: 50,000 Tubo people invaded with iron cavalry!
The Tubo people came from the north of the West Sea, and the so-called 10,000 cavalry took to the sky, and the 50,000 cavalry, like a tide, overflowed from the wilderness, dense, black and pressed like dark clouds, extending to the end of the sky. And the silver light that flickered like lightning from time to time was the reflection of their weapons.
The thunderous sound of horses' hooves accompanied the arrival of the army, let
Behind the army, followed by a large number of cattle, sheep and horses, this was the supply of the Tibetan people.
The Tibetans invaded!
In fact, the Tibetans wanted to send more people, but their government was unstable, which restrained their power.
The main general is not about Qinling, but about his uncle about the ancient times, he is old and fighting, and he can bring the army back at the worst.
The Tibetans crossed the Huangshui and saw the two beacon towers burning brightly, and constantly alarmed the rear.
Instead of attacking the two towers, they bypassed them.
If the cavalry does not attack the city, even if it is a one-to-one exchange, the cavalry suffers, and a person as old as Migu has long ordered what can and cannot be done.
And the beacon tower, which was isolated from the enemy, wisely did not launch any attack, if it angered the Tibetans, tens of thousands of people were dispatched, which was enough to bulldoze the beacon.
Not attacking is not a military violation, after all, they just need to sound the alarm on time.
One by one, the beacons were lit and the news was quickly transmitted to the rear.
The Tubo people also crossed one beacon tower after another, and there was no trace of the Tang people along the road.
You must know that the Tang people outside are herdsmen, and when the herdsmen get the news, they ride horses and run fast, so that the Tubo people have nothing to gain.
This is not a good thing, because if you can't catch the people to open the way in the ravines, I am afraid that the Tubo warriors will die more and die in vain.
Finally, they saw a piece of golden ground, and they didn't know how many there were behind it, which was the harvest field that made the Tibetan people salivate!
If nothing else, when you see that piece of gold, it is more solid and dazzling than the vast majority of the fields in Tibet.
The Tibetan people planted barley in an extensive manner, watching the sky and eating.
The fields of the Tang people began to be selected and bred, and from the very beginning they outperformed the Tubo people.
If you come to intensive cultivation again, the harvest is more than double that of the Tubo people, and the situation will naturally be gratifying.
It seems that there are no mobile troops of the Tang army, and those fields are like pieces of gold that attract the Tibetans.
However, there are some things that cannot be avoided, for example, the nasty city walls and the soldiers of the Don Army who are waiting for them.
There were mountains on both sides of the road, which were relatively steep, and it was difficult for horses to march, and the Tang army did not block the road, so they built a wall on the side of the road, which was wide enough to resist the surrounding attacks.
The Tibetans tentatively sent a small force to cross the road, and halfway through, the Tang army fired arrows.
Shoot arrows!
Even if the Tibetans were running fast on horseback, several people were shot to the ground.
The arrow power of the infantry bow was better than that of the cavalry bow, and the Tibetan cavalry could not fight back.
They could only run as fast as they could, and some of the people who were shot down were not dead, some were nailed to the ground, and the ground was howling, and some of them desperately crawled towards the army, bringing out a long bloody road, which was shocking.
And the Tang army did not embarrass the Tubo people who crawled on the ground, and some of them really fled back to their own side.
As soon as the Tubo people gave an order, hundreds of cavalry roared past, and a large group of men and horses approached the city wall, riding bows intensively, and shooting at the head of the wall in a volley!
It rained down on the city, and the Don army returned to color.
Bed crossbow!
Why not, you can't put anything on the city and throw it down.
Pull the curtain down, those bed crossbows, covered by a canopy, not afraid of the arrows of the Tibetans.
The arrow is one meter long, has a long range, and has strong attack power, and even the best armor can still penetrate it within the range.
The sound of arrows is terrifying. A series of crossbow arrows flew out and hit the Tibetans, and one crossbow arrow turned out to be a double arrow, first shooting through one, and then shooting the other to death!
The bed crossbow is powerful, and it is so close, whoever dies in it, how dare the Tubo people provoke it.
They dodged one after another, hugged their heads and ran away, and ran as fast as they could.
To attack or not to attack? On Mi Gu gritted his teeth and said, "Take a detour." ”
However, the road is not so easy to detour, and after a while, the road ahead is still the same, there is a road on the side of the mountain, and the city is on the side of the road, and it does not directly block the road, so that the Tubo people are very entangled.
Attack or not?
Attack it, obviously there is a way, don't attack it, people will tease you with arrows.
This area is full of mountain roads, and it is even more difficult to find a good road.
Then they had to rush hard, and when they filled the road like a tide, the trebuchets set up by the Tang army on the left and right sections suddenly burst into flames!
The four fireballs made a beautiful arc and landed on the ground, with a bang on the ground, and the fire oil burst in all directions!
You say that the fire oil bombs fired by ancient trebuchets (cars) were very powerful, but for the people of the time, this was already a heavy weapon.
The oil fell on the people, on the horses, and burned, and immediately screamed.
There was a raging fire on the road, and the road was blocked by fire oil on the left and right, and the Tang army calmly and neatly shot arrows and fired bed crossbows at the Tubo people in the middle!
Before they could eat the new wheat of the Tang people, the Tubo people died more than 200 horses!
Resting on
"Give me a siege!" He shouted loudly.
Some of the warriors of the fringe tribes were forced to dismount, and began to siege the city with their lap legs, large shields, ladders and a few catapults made by the Tang people brought by the clamps.
Arrows flew in the sky like flying locusts, and the city was up and down the city, shouting to kill the sky, and the Tibetan people were attached to the city wall like ants.
The soldiers of the Tang army defending the city fought hard, and the stone and wood cannons that had been prepared for a long time, and the gray gold juice of the cave fell down one after another, and the Tubo people who were besieging the city fell from the edge of the city like dumplings.
Blood flies, and human life ascends to heaven.
Before the Tang army's arrows were fired, they were all dipped in the dung water tank according to the order, and they hit the Tubo people, and if they didn't die on the spot, they would double the mortality rate when they went back, almost nine deaths!
The next day the wounded must have had a fever and died of groaning, and the Tibetans had only two things for them, one was water, and the other was a sorcerer.
Water is ineffective, and wizards have about the same odds of defeating microbes as they do in the lottery.
The Tibetan people died a lot, and those who were hit by the arrow were all dead, early or late death, and the mood of the ancient people was very bad. (To be continued.) )
