Chapter 478: The war is in full swing

"Since there are not enough gunpowder bullets, then let's get more gunpowder, as long as the quantity is enough and can be used, we can also let these Tubo people fly into the sky!"

Zhang Yi said with a radiant expression, but Wang Zhe didn't quite understand.

"Brother Zhang Yi, what do you say?"

Wang Zhe also knows something about gunpowder, and someone has used it before, and the power is indeed great, but the restriction is too great, and it is very difficult to use it.

Zhang Yi said: "Actually, it's very simple, as long as we dare to give up Qingtang City, then, the enemy will definitely fall for it." ”

"Think about it, now the enemy definitely wants to recapture Qingtang City as soon as possible, no matter what happens to Qingtang City now, they will do everything they can to take it back."

"At that time, we will pretend to have a small decisive battle with them outside Qingtang City, and we will fight as much as we lose in the decisive battle, and it doesn't matter if we lose, as long as the main force of the Tubo people is brought to Qingtang City."

When Zhang Yi said this, Wang Zhe already understood what he meant.

"Doing this is detrimental to yin morality!"

Wang Zhe said with a hint of jealousy flashing in his eyes, this is not superstition, but a challenge to their bottom line, Zhang Yi's method is indeed a little damaged, and it is a bit too cruel for the people of Tubo in Qingtang City.

"Detrimental to Yin's morality? So what, since you have put on your battle robe, you should do everything you can to kill the enemy. ”

"If it is not my race, its heart will be different, these Tibetans are not worthy of our pity now, think about the time when they killed our comrades, at that time, if they were a little compassionate, it would not have caused the current situation of war between the two countries."

Zhang Yi said coldly, in the war, the most taboo thing is the benevolence of women, as a general, you must be decided.

Kindness should never be what a soldier should have, and killing all the enemies in front of him is what a soldier should do.

Wang Zhe lowered his head and pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth and nodded.

No matter what, he had to win this war first, and no matter what kind of infamy he had, as long as he could make more of his soldiers return home safely, it would be worth it.

patted Wang Zhe on the shoulder, Zhang Yi said, "Okay, it's not too early, it's time to go back and rest." ”

Wang Zhe didn't speak, turned around and went out.

The answer was crisp and neat, but there was still some uneasiness in his heart.

But this is not the time to think about peace and security, since he needs gunpowder next, then he must let people prepare it now.

They didn't carry gunpowder this time, and if they wanted to use a large dose of gunpowder, they had to go back to their original station in Datang to get it, and the gunpowder in their station was definitely not enough, and he had to find a way to get some from other channels.

It will take a few days to get so much gunpowder, and in these few days, they will have to find a way to hold back those Tibetan troops.

Fortunately, it is only the vanguard of the Tibetan army that will arrive tomorrow, and there is not much threat, and after their main army comes, they will have to be careful.

After returning to the military tent, Wang Zhe immediately arranged for people to rush back overnight to collect gunpowder.

The next day, Wang Zhe went out with the Tang Dynasty border army and set a trap near Qingtang City, and at the same time left a part of the soldiers to arrange fortifications around Qingtang City.

If people who don't know see this situation, they will definitely think that Wang Zhe is planning to defend Qingtang City, and Wang Zhe knows that he needs to delay for three days now!

In the afternoon, the vanguard army of Tubo rushed to the boundary of Qingtang.

However, those Tubo cavalry did not dare to attack the Tang army, they did not dare to be so reckless, because the battle of Qingtang had spread the prestige of the Tang border army, and now the Tubo people rarely dared to directly clash with the Tang army.

If you want to fight, at least you have to wait until their main force comes to fight, and now their own troops are less than 10,000, if they fight, it is estimated that it will not be enough for those Tang troops to fight in one pot.

The Tibetan vanguard army was very honest and set up camp fifty miles away from Qingtang City.

They did not dare to attack the Tang army, but they could first prepare for the arrival of the main force of Tibet, such as investigating intelligence and relocating camps for them first.

However, if they did not take the initiative to attack, it did not mean that the Tang Army would just let them go.

When the Tubo Pioneer Army was encamped, Wang Zhe organized tens of thousands of Tang cavalry troops to carry out a wave of charges.

Although the cavalry of the Tang army was discovered in advance, the Tibetan vanguard army was still very passive, especially when the troops were not superior, they could not get any benefits.

After a fierce battle, the Tibetans had no choice but to throw down nearly a thousand corpses and flee.

And the main force of Tubo has not arrived, the Tang army must take advantage of this time to repair these Tubo vanguard troops, at least they must be afraid and play their own prestige!

After the defeat of the Tibetans, the Tang army pursued for dozens of miles, killing several Tibetan cavalry teams, until this Tibetan vanguard army was routed for thousands of miles.

"It's so exciting."

"Yes, these Tubo people bullied us Datang so hard some time ago, and now we can be regarded as angry."

The soldiers of the Tang Army spoke one after another on the way back, this battle was very enjoyable, watching those Tubo people being beaten to the ground, each of them was very happy in their hearts.

After beating the Tibetan vanguard army away, Wang Zhe and the others bought another day.

However, the day after the defeat of the Tibetan vanguard, the Tubo people who were beaten away yesterday made a comeback, and this time, behind them, there were 100,000 Tibetan troops.

With the backstage and confidence, the Tubo cavalry, who was beaten yesterday and cried for his father and mother, dared to come up and provoke at this time.

However, Wang Zhe did not let the soldiers go to war, for the sake of insurance and to delay time, he directly sent a war letter to the general of Tubo.

War book challenges were a common method in ancient times, but by the time of the Tang Dynasty, they had gradually become unpopular.

However, Wang Zhe still sent a letter of war to the Tibetan generals, which promised that they would fight to the death outside Qingtang City in three days.

Now what Wang Zhe has to do is to be vigilant, defend well, and then wait for the Tibetan side to reply.

He was worried that the Tibetans would not agree to his challenge, and he was also afraid that the Tibetans would attack them directly the next day, in which case he would have to lead the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty border army to fight these Tibetans to the death.

He had to make sure that the defense line would not collapse until the gunpowder reached Qingtang City.
