Chapter 220: The Battle of Yaozhou (5)
Chapter 220: The Battle of Yaozhou (5)
The soldiers were forced back, but one by one they fell down one after another, but the pressure was tight, and one of the soldiers finally came to the trench and threw the mud bags down. There are only a few, most of them because of cowardice, those who do not move forward, and those who do not retreat, all let the Tang army shoot them alive.
This effect is not what Mangda Chabu wants, looking at the sky, the sky is still dark, and the fog is even stronger, but I don't know how, looking at the fog behind me, my heart is very hairy. I can't bear the child, and I can't set the wolf. So let the Tibetan soldiers lead this group of barbarians to charge.
It's not that they are not fierce, some barbarians are more fierce than the Tibetan soldiers, but they have rarely experienced major battles, and their psychological quality is extremely poor. After a few months of training and some fighting, it's a little better, but it's still not good. In the first wave of attacks, the brute soldiers were very high, and after several waves of unsuccessful attacks, these soldiers were able to quickly fall down. It's exhaustion again, and once there is a change, it will collapse. When the time comes, even his own subordinates will be implicated.
The weapons of the Tibetans were not very good, but in fact, when they arrived at the dam, they lost the benefits of the plateau, and they were not necessarily braver than the Tang army. Only compared to the brutes, they are like a pack of wolves, after a wave of unsuccessful attacks, they can continue to maintain their morale, keep charging, waiting for an opportunity to devour the enemy. But in general, fighting here, the advantage of the Tibetans was not great. Therefore, the more he thought about it, the more worried he became, so he simply sent 3,000 Tibetan soldiers and 8,000 barbarian soldiers at once, forming eleven teams to attack the Tang camp from all directions.
With the addition of Tibetan soldiers, order immediately became orderly, some used shields to protect their comrades, some carried mud bags, and some held weapons, ready to fight. Gradually, more soldiers came to the edge of the trench and placed mud bags in the trench.
The sacrifice was still very heavy, but Manglu Dachabu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Qili Xu and said, "You lead a thousand cavalry, patrol around, and look at the rear." ”
"General, you mean ......"
"I'm worried, you're going to search farther."
"Yes," Qili replied.
In the Tang Dynasty camp, Zhu Jing said: "Your Highness, you are going to let General Xue attack." ”
"Wait, the enemy army is coming from afar, the people are sleepy and the horses are lacking, our battalion can still be saved, and then it will drain their vitality."
In fact, Zhu Jingze, Di Renjie, and Li Wei, like Li Wei, saw this kind of scene of real knives and guns for the first time, and their faces were a little shocked.
Seeing more and more mud bags thrown into the trench, Mangtodachab said, "Beat the drums, cheer, shout." ”
"Yes," his soldiers replied, beating their war drums and shouting in unison. Not only to cheer for themselves, but also for the soldiers fighting in the north. Seeing the combat effectiveness of the barbarian soldiers, he was not very relieved about the battle scene in the north. The reason for formulating this plan is precisely because it needs to be attacked from two sides. If it's your own side, it's meaningless......
The sound of war drums was heard throughout Yaozhou City, and Ke Du naturally heard it, and ordered the army to pour out. There were very few soldiers left in the city, only two or three thousand, guarding the north gate. Nearly 20,000 people frantically rushed towards the Tang camp.
That Erqiao was just a blink of an eye, and he was trampled into spring mud by the soldiers who rushed up.
Everywhere there were shouts of people killing and screaming. Gradually, the trenches began to fill in the pavement, and some soldiers began to charge the fence. Li Wei said: "Mo Dao camp! ”
Mo knifeman stabbed out with the tip of the knife through the gap in the fence. But there were still enemies who turned in, and Li Wei ordered: "Blow the horn." ”
The sound of the horn came out, and Ma Renjing asked, "General Liang, is His Highness informing us?" ”
"It's not to inform us, it's three long and four short, and it's General Xue Rengui to be informed. Ours is four long and four short. ”
"Your Highness, this is a good way."
"The way is good, the enemy learns quickly, in the end, you still have to be strong." Then his eyes narrowed, looking at the head of the city, about all the troops went out of the south gate, some were also guarding the north gate, and at the head of the east city, a patrolling soldier could not see. I thought in my heart that Yaozhou City was equal to more than half of it, but I was nervous, I was still making meritorious contributions in these battles, but my guilt was not small. can only bless the prince this time to leave all the Tubo people, the credit is great, and he may be able to wash some of it.
Then keep your mouth shut and wait patiently......
Listening to the sound of the horn, Manglu Dachabu didn't know what it meant, but when he heard the "trumpet" invented in the Tang Dynasty, he was even more nervous and said: "Cavalry attack!" ”
Thousands of cavalry rushed again. Some of the fences were broken down by the huge momentum, and then the Tibetans and barbarians swarmed in. Everywhere it crashes, there are bursts of cheers.
The barbarians in the north were not so brave, and they were so bold that they rushed over at once, and they ushered in a dense rain of arrows. In particular, Xue Ne's arm strength is not as good as that of the Black Tooth Changzhi, but his archery skills are above the Black Tooth Changzhi, and every time he shoots an arrow, an enemy is shot down by him.
"Xue Ne, your archery skills are very good."
"General Black Tooth, his subordinates' archery skills are less than one percent of my father's." Xue Ne said proudly.
mentioned Xue Rengui, a fierce man, and Hei Yan Changzhi was directly speechless.
Seeing that countless comrades-in-arms around him fell, or were injured and wailed, and there were trenches blocking them, some of the barbarians finally retreated, and hesitated where to stand, not knowing whether to advance or retreat. At this stop, more soldiers hesitated, which undoubtedly increased the mortality rate.
Ke Lu heard the cheers from the south and said loudly: "The southern camp of the Tang army has collapsed, everyone rushes." ”
This shout boosted morale a little.
Li Wei boarded the tower car, looked at the south, and then looked at the north, but he couldn't see clearly, so he had to prick up his ears to listen, there were shouts of killing and horses everywhere, and he couldn't hear it very really, so he got off the car and asked, "Pei Shilang, is it ......?" ”
"It should be about the same."
Li Wei said again: "Blow the horn again." ”
In the east of the city, Liang Jishou was also listening with his ears pricked up and said, "It's time." ”
Three thousand soldiers had been waiting for him for a long time, and immediately swam silently to the city wall, quietly climbed ashore, and then threw their hooks at the head of the city, not very high, only less than two feet. If it weren't for the cold, take a ladder and go up. When they went up to the city, there was silence in the city, and many of the inhabitants were taken captive, and even if there were, they were tortured to the point of not being human, or there were many women, who were captured by the brutes and had fun. You can also take advantage of a faint moonlight to see that some houses in the city have been demolished, which are used to get wood and tiles to defend the city.
Liang Jishou said: "Next." "Three thousand soldiers immediately followed the wall and went down the city.
The pressure on Blacktooth and Xue Ne was not very great, and even though the enemy soldiers were shaken up and many of them began to throw mud bags in the trenches as they wished, the impact on the fence was not great, and they still ordered their men to continue harvesting.
The pressure on the Tang soldiers in the south increased. With the addition of cavalry, danger abounded everywhere. Looking at the princess's smug expression, Li Wei pulled up a bow with some anger and shot it with an arrow. The arrow was shot a little skillfully, and a Tibetan cavalry fell in response.
Di Renjie saw it clearly, and said loudly: "Your Highness will kill a Tubo soldier with one arrow, Your Highness is mighty!" ”
It seems that this is a blind cat touching a dead mouse, Li Wei's face was a little red after being shouted by Di Renjie. But after this sound came out, Tang Jun was shocked when he heard it. I knew that after a while, reinforcements would arrive, and I had confidence in my heart, so I became even more fierce.
Time passed imperceptibly, and the wind actually picked up, blowing away some of the thick clouds in the sky. Then a bright moon appeared in the sky. The fog also faded, and the battlefield was revealed. It was a very shocking scene, tens of thousands of enemies were divided into dozens of groups, each group of thousands of people and hundreds of people. It's just that the ones in the south are more orderly, and the barbarian army that comes out of Yaozhou City in the north is more chaotic. Tens of thousands of people are crammed into this land and run and fight.
Countless arrows were being fired in the night sky, and many people on the ground were shot dead, or seriously injured, struggling and crying, and there were pools of blood in the night, glowing dark purple in a puff of water, as well as severed limbs and stumps, and five organs and six lungs.
Li Wei looked a little dry, but his personality was very gentle, and he didn't have a face like earth, panicked, and very calm. Seeing the prince like this, the soldier felt more at ease. In fact, the situation was very favorable to the Tang Dynasty army. Stay together inside the fence and be in a neat formation. On the contrary, because of the chaos, the enemy forces on both sides are killing each other.
The wind stopped, the fog filled again, and the scene of the battle was hidden in the fog, and the spectacular and tragic scene just now disappeared like a mirage. Of course, without Xue Rengui, the situation was only temporarily favorable to the Tang Dynasty army, and once the south of the camp was completely breached, it would inevitably affect the defense of the north side of the camp. There is also a possibility that the north side of the camp will be breached, which will allow Mangrandachabu to form a two-sided attack as he wishes.
Mangran Dachabu roared again: "Whoever catches the prince of Tang will be rewarded with a thousand slaves and a thousand taels of gold." ”
After thinking about it, I felt that it was inappropriate, and many barbarians didn't understand the concept of gold, so they changed their words: "Reward the cloth and silk." ”
The herald passed the order on.
At this time, he was no longer afraid of the princess yelling, Li Wei took out the cloth ball from her mouth and said: "You Tubo people are too stingy, and the value of a lonely person is worth a thousand slaves and a thousand taels of gold?" ”
Di Renjie smiled, this value is low, the prince does not mention the meaning, and now the "private property" that belongs to him may be at least 100,000 yuan. Of course, it is also unknown how many there are. There is a newspaper exchange with the capital, but it takes two months to come and go. I don't talk about salt and sugar.
The princess said angrily: "Prince, don't be complacent, your camp will be breached soon." ”
"If you want to break through, it's difficult!" Li Wei said with confidence.
After Mangran Dachabu shouted, the morale of the enemy army was high again, and the battle gradually spread to the middle of the camp. The brutes from the north, after making great sacrifices, also filled in several roads, and some soldiers began to approach the fence. At this moment, there was a miserable scream in the distance, and after a while, Qili Xu ran over with dozens of subordinates, and shouted from afar: "General, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good." ”
"Say." I guessed it badly, but I have been holding on to the luck in my heart, and continue to command the soldiers in battle.
Qili Xu said: "There is another Tang army covering up, from the banner, and it seems to be Xue Rengui, the general of the Tang Dynasty." ”
"Xue Rengui......" Mangrandachabu's face became ugly, and at this time, he finally understood all the links. It turned out that the Tang Dynasty army was not the prey, and the Tang Dynasty prince was not the prey, but just a bait, which was to fish for himself and his more than 10,000 Tibetan soldiers.
Then the sound of horses' hooves, coming from a distance, approached quickly...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to ***(***.***) to vote for recommendation, ***, your support is my biggest motivation. )
