Section 822 Take the initiative

"Whew!"

A train emitting black smoke and white mist drove through the mountains, and at the front of it was not a locomotive, but a small cart loaded with heavily armed sergeants in case of a possible attack. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sergeants with good eyesight were specially selected for lookouts, and even the lookouts of each train were equipped with binoculars.

The increase in strength is evident in this detail!

In the past, Wei Xi sent people to grind crystals as lenses, and there were not a few binoculars in his hands, and the treasure was very good.

In those days, transparent glass was a valuable commodity, and now the best glass manufacturer is Wei Xi's industry, and the profits are not small, and the mirrors and military lenses used daily are sold well in the East and sold back to the West along the trade routes.

Mirrors and lenses belonged to the "high-tech" at that time, monopolizing the industry, there was no semicolon, the profits were high, five to ten times the profits, as well as his wine, beef jerky, grain, weapons industry, trains, wine, etc., which one was not a profit rolling in, even Wu Zetian would be blushing, not to mention the now popular martial arts relatives and cool officials, if it weren't for Wei Xi and Princess Taiping having enough legions, I'm afraid they would have rolled up their sleeves and waved their old fists to fight over!

Telescopes are not omnipotent, and they are impossible without telescopes

With the help of binoculars, the sergeants can see more clearly and see farther!

As soon as they see something suspicious ahead, they will sound the alarm, and then the train will stop, and the road escort team on the train will be dispatched to remove the garbage from the road, including people.

In addition to the escort force accompanying the train, the railway department will also dispatch armored trains, like armored fortresses, patrolling along the line, plus the horse team keeps shuttling on the railway, creating no man's land, controlling key areas, bloody massacres, and effective deterrence.

In addition, Yang Chengxian also used a nirvana, which is the ability to make the Bodhisattva bow... Money buys!

He shouted at the tribesmen: Do you need spirits? Need good tea? Need nice clothes? Need beautiful utensils? ……

What I have here is!

There are many materials, complete types, and a dazzling array of materials.

Yang Chengxian waved the check, only the tribesmen and the Tang Army signed an agreement to jointly defend and protect the railway, and every other period, such as three months, if no saboteurs pass through the tribal area, then there will be a corresponding income, depending on the size of the area in charge, the larger the territory, the more money will be paid.

If there are many enemies and the tribe is outnumbered, immediately summon Tang Qi and destroy the enemy!

……

"Drive!"

"Drive!" Smoke filled the road, and people and horses passed by. Surging forward.

One man and three horses, the knight on the horse is skillful and easily leads the horse forward.

The leader of the team, Yang Chengxian personally went out!

He received a secret message from Majid, the chieftain of the southern tribes of the Persian Plateau, that there was an unusual movement in Shiraz, an important town in the south, and that they had dispatched 3,000 cavalry in an attempt to cut off the Tang army's lines of communication.

Well, Yang Chengxian's strategy to deal with the big cannibal is indispensable: take the initiative!

Important towns such as Shiraz were once besieged by the Tang army, and later the main force of the Tang army broke the siege and left, and the main force of the Shiraz defenders still existed.

Yang Chengxian sent 2,000 cavalry to "watch" the big cannibal in Shiraz, even if it was 2,000 people, it was a difficult opponent for the big cannibal.

There were few people out of the city who were big cannibals, and the Tang army swarmed up to eliminate them.

If there are many people, it doesn't matter, as long as you keep shooting arrows, with the unparalleled riding and archery in the world, you can eventually drag across the big cannibals, because their horses are not good, and the bows and arrows are even worse.

However, after all, the Great Cannibal found a loophole, sent 3,000 cavalry, left Shiraz, and went straight to the railway between Isfahan and Abadan!

Three thousand cavalry, a lot of them, if they were to reach the railway, it would cause great trouble, and the siege of the city of Aladan, which was in the ascendant, could be seriously affected.

Fortunately, the big cannibals deceived the Tang army on the Shiraz side, but they could not escape the eyes and ears of the tribesmen.

The tribal chieftain Majid, who controlled a vast area of the Farat region northwest of Shiraz, was bought by the Tang people and sent many herdsmen to act as eyeliners, and finally reaped the rewards.

He hurriedly sent messengers with one man and five horses to report this important military situation to the Don army in the city of Haft, located in the middle of Isfahan and Abadan!

It happened that Yang Chengxian was sitting in Haft, and after receiving the report, he was overjoyed, and immediately led 5,000 cavalry to pounce on the invading enemy according to the position indicated by Majid.

He trusted Majid very much, and that was because among Majid's messengers, there were Tang people stationed in the Majid tribe!

Majid had a good relationship with the Tang and let the Tang people enter his tribal area, and those Tang people, showed that the information was true.

The most important thing is that Majid's two sons have come to the Tang people's side, the eldest one has joined the Tang cavalry and served under Wei Xi's tent as a VIP child, and the younger one has already taken the train to study at the Tang noble school in Korla!

The Tang people were deeply involved in the Great Food Region, and the Great Cannibals were different, there were staunch patriots who fought to the end with the Tang people, and there were also many intellectuals similar to Majid, who actively moved closer to the Tang people, and the idea was to take advantage of the Tang people's invasion when they urgently needed manpower, so as to ascend to the throne!

He is so powerful, what else doesn't trust him, so Yang Chengxian rushed out.

Horse Change!

Accurate maps, road signs, and guides!

Use the binoculars when you arrive at the predetermined location!

The accumulation indicates that this battle will be easy and enjoyable.

Majid is indeed a friend enough, and constantly uses horses to inform the news of the arrival of the big cannibal, saving Yang Chengxian from taking the wrong road.

The enemy's direction was very clear, and he had to pass through a mountain pass in the Zagros Mountains, so Yang Chengxian stopped his tracks, and prepared an ambush at the mountain pass for a long time, and even had time to make tea and drink. (The mountain wind is cold, and the smoke from the ignition is blown away at once, and it will not be exposed)

……

A tree in the distant ridge was brought down, a "message tree" that indicated that the enemy was approaching and that the troops were to be put on alert.

The sun hung high on the mountain, because the terrain was high, it was not yet late autumn, but the valley was already very cold, and the sun did not add the slightest warmth.

Wait a minute, the Tang people will make this valley even worse!

When the Great Cannibals arrived, a long line of brown-skinned men and scrawny horses walked on the gravel roads in the cold, narrow valley, and their horses were in very poor condition, because the Tang army was raging, killing the horses of the Great Cannibals at sight, destroying their grazing, and at the same time they had no food to feed the horses.

When the poignant trumpet echoed in the valley, and in an instant, there seemed to be countless Tang troops condescending and rushing down like a mountain torrent, the big cannibals met the battle with great tragedy, but they couldn't compare to the Tang people in anything, how could they beat the Tang people!
