1209.Chapter 1209
In war, Tang Zhou doesn't like to use brute force. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
And if he doesn't have an advantage, he rarely attacks, because if he doesn't have an advantage, he will die if he attacks, and as a general, he can't joke with the lives of soldiers.
Now that the advantage is in place, it's time to strike.
The Tang army was like a rain of arrows, and the Tubo army was frightened, because they knew that they were fooled, and the people in Tubo knew very well that there was no benefit in continuing to stay here, their purpose was just to prevent the Tang army from slaughtering the people, so why fight the Tang army here?
With this idea, the Tibetan army immediately turned around and went back.
Tang Zhou stood in the dark and saw these Tubo soldiers trying to escape, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Now that this place had become a trap, how could he let this group of people escape from the trap so easily?
If the trap can be easily escaped, it is not a trap.
The Tubo army wanted to flee, Tang Zhou ordered people to chase after him, of course, when chasing, he still had to use sharp arrows to open the way, and the Tubo army didn't care about this, just fled.
But as they were fleeing, a rope suddenly appeared in front of them, and then they tripped up the hooves of their horses, and the horses fell to the ground, and the men fell with them.
As soon as one horse fell, the other horses behind it were bound to be affected, and at this time, the Tang troops on both sides suddenly rushed to kill.
The cavalry's movement in this kind of place is very restricted, and they can't even turn around if they want to, so they are surrounded and killed by the Tang army, so they still have an advantage at all?
After killing half a pillar of incense, the Tubo army knew very well that if they continued to kill like this, they would have to be killed by the Tang army, so they no longer relied on horses, and after jumping off the horse, they came to meet the Tang army's blades.
Kill, kill.
The Tang army had the advantage at this time, but the Tubo soldiers were tired enough, coupled with the sharp weapons of the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo and the Tang Dynasty had little chance of winning in hand-to-hand combat.
The battle lasted until the end of the evening.
At the end of the day, it suddenly snowed again.
In this battle, half of the Tang Dynasty was killed and wounded, and only 1,500 people were left who could continue to fight, as for Tubo, more than 4,000 people were killed and hundreds escaped.
In this kind of place, there are few Tang troops, and it is almost impossible to destroy them completely, and it is already very good to win.
And after the end of this battle, although everyone was tired enough, Tang Zhou still resolutely ordered people to go straight to Tubo.
Now that they only have so few people left, if they let Tubo ease up, they are afraid that they will be completely wiped out by the people sent by Tubo, so if they want to relieve the pressure on Li Ji's side, they must fight quickly and slaughter Tubo tonight.
Although Tang Zhou didn't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, if he didn't kill at this time, more people would die in the Tang army, and in order to end the war as soon as possible, he could only be ruthless.
The snow was heavy, and the whole of Tibet was covered with a layer of silver white.
Everywhere Tang Qi went, there was a cry of crying, but Tang Zhou still had a kind heart in the end, he did not slaughter the weak, only those relatively rich Tubo people, as well as the adult men of Tubo.
The adult man who killed Tubo, Tubo wanted to gather soldiers and horses, but he had to wait until more than ten years later.
The killing took place at night, the snow turned red, and the night was sleepless, and many Tibetan people paid a terrible price for a decision to praise the Tibetans.
At dawn, the Tang army had already left Tibet, and when they left, each of them became blood red, even if it was covered with snow, it was difficult to hide the blood red.
Slaughter.
It was like a nightmare for them.
A helpless nightmare.
Who wants to kill people, but what if they don't?
War is cruel, if you don't kill them, they will kill you.
----------------------------
Tubo praised the battle with Li Ji, and the two sides did not distinguish between victory and defeat, and after each retreated, they agreed to fight again.
But at this time, Tang Zhou led his troops to destroy the 5,000 people he sent, and the news spread that he slaughtered the middle-aged men of Tubo everywhere.
After hearing the news, Tubo Songzan suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood, he didn't expect that his 5,000 men would be defeated by Tang Zhou's 3,000 soldiers and horses, and he also let the Tang army kill a lot of Tubo's strong men.
In this way, it is not easy for him to recover in Tibet, right?
In this era, men in the prime of life are very important, they not only take on the important task of protecting the family and defending the country, but also engage in physical production and continue the heavy responsibility of future generations, but now that so many people have died, how many years can Tubo recover?
Tibet was originally vast and sparsely populated, but now it is even more sparsely populated.
After a mouthful of blood spurted out, Tubo praised the terrible paleness, and a group of Tubo soldiers stood on both sides, not knowing what to do.
"Wang ............"
Tubo Songzan waved his hand, and then said: "I'm tired and want to rest, you all go down." ”
The snow was still falling, and when everyone left, Tubo Song bit his lip tightly, he regretted it a little, did he fight the right battle?
Now that he has not only failed to win this war, but has also suffered great losses on his own country, what should he do?
He is a sinner.
A cold wind blew, and Tubo's body suddenly trembled, as if he felt death coming.
The next day, the snow stopped.
The whole military camp was covered with heavy snow, and the Tibetan soldiers entered the tent of Tubo praise, he sat on the bed, as if he had been sitting for a long time, his face was pale, like a dead man, if it wasn't for the fact that his eyes were still moving, everyone really thought that they were praised.
Everyone stood next to them and didn't dare to speak, but they all knew in their hearts that this battle could not be fought, and if they fought again, more people would die, and they might be in a state of collapse.
But they didn't dare to mention it, they were afraid.
After a long time, Tubo finally spoke: "Withdraw the army and submit the surrender table to the Tang Dynasty." ”
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed, but they also knew that they had submitted a table of surrender to Datang, and they might not have a better time in the future.
Although Datang is merciful, it is not wronged, it does not mean that they can be deceived twice, not to mention that although they still have strength, their successors are powerless, and Datang will not be afraid of them for at least ten years.
Tubo withdrew his troops and quickly sent someone to submit the surrender table, Li Ji was a little surprised after receiving the surrender table, but after he understood what was going on, he laughed: "The Tang family's boy's move, although it is a little ruthless, but it really hurts Tubo, and this pain can make them remember it for more than ten years." ”
Saying this, Li Ji immediately wrote a letter, and then wrapped the Tubo Descending Table in it, and ordered someone to send it to the capital, and after he dealt with the affairs here, it was time for the class to return to the court.
Tang Zhou's side, after learning that Tubo had withdrawn, finally breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't know what Tubo would do, if they were treated like this, they might be crazy and desperate, or they might retreat rationally.
Now it seems that Tubo is still very sensible, but he can make a rational choice, and he will definitely have a terrifying plan.
