After several days of rearmament, the Tibetan army has recovered its vitality and is ready to move again. On the side of the Tang Army, Li Shan temporarily gave up the idea of making artillery.

Since there is no way to make a cannon for the time being, grenades are also a good choice. It's not a grenade in the true sense of the word, but it's enough to blow it up.

Then there is the large thunder of the trebuchet, and the child and mother thunder come out one after another. Then there are rockets, which are bundles of explosives tied to large crossbow arrows and shot out with ballistas.

All kinds of firearms were invented in Li Shan's endless ideas, and the eyes of several lieutenants who looked at it glowed green, to know how much the generals loved weapons of mass destruction.

This thing is more used than the Fang Tian Painting Halberd and the Green Dragon Glaive Knife. A weapon can increase a person's combat power at most, but a firearm is to transform an army.

When Li Shan handed over the newly invented rocket to Vice General Xu yesterday, the expression on Vice General Xu's face was like his wife giving birth to a child, and his happy white teeth never closed.

At this time, the Tubo army had not yet realized the changes in the Tang army, and the Tubo army was also building siege equipment, crossbow arrows, and weapons day and night in order to make a comeback.

The Tubo marshal held his breath and must be ashamed, he was originally one of the few generals in the Tubo army who was familiar with military books and was very strategic in battle, and was promoted as the commander of this time, I thought that I could show my skills in this operation, but I didn't expect to be calculated by Li Shan twice, how could I not be angry.

"Sir, our ordnance has been built and can be distributed to all battalions today. In addition, Zampu sent a messenger to pass the message to the commander. ”

Zampu is the title of the supreme ruler of Tibet, which is equivalent to the emperor.

"Pass him in." The Tubo marshal knew that this defeat would definitely be expressed.

The envoy brought a secret letter from Zampu, which was clearly written: The emperor of the Tang Dynasty was not assassinated, and this time our battle was lost. There is no need to continue. However, it is not easy to withdraw the army, it is still necessary to put enough pressure on the Tang army, and then sue for peace with the Tang Dynasty to minimize the losses.

The Tubo marshal tore up the secret letter fiercely, "Zampu is too careful, then the Tang army is not afraid at all, if Zampu is willing to listen to me, let me lead 200,000 troops to attack, and now the Hexi Corridor has long been in our bag." ”

"Command the battalions. Attack Liangzhou early tomorrow morning. ”

"Report, spies are coming, the Tubo army seems to be showing signs of gathering, and it is likely that it will attack Liangzhou tomorrow."

There was already action on the Tibetan side, and Li Jingxuan got the news as soon as possible, and immediately convened all the soldiers to discuss.

"It's just in time, my rocket battalion has an itchy forehand, damn it, how can I do it with such a good weapon to prevent Lao Tzu from having a good fight on the battlefield. General, give the order. "Vice General Xu is already impatient.

The other soldiers are also gearing up, and their current mood is completely different from before. After seeing the power of firearms, they even had a kind of invasion of Tibet. The impulse to capture the Tibetan Zampu alive.

Li Jingxuan looked at Li Shan, saw Li Shan nodded, slapped the table and said loudly: "Okay, gather troops tomorrow." Fight to the death with the Tibetan army, and let them see how powerful we are. ”

The next day, early in the morning. The Tang army assembled and set off, and so did the Tibetan army.

The two armies met on the border between the two countries,

The Tubo marshal was very surprised, it stands to reason that for the Tang army, they only need to defend in the city to be happy, but they didn't expect the Tang army to choose to fight head-on.

And the formation of the Tang army is very strange, the front is not a cavalry used to charge, but also brought trebuchets that have no effect in field battles, is the Tang army crazy?

The two main generals stepped forward and had a polite conversation first.

"Li Jingxuan, I respect you as a man, I didn't expect you to really dare to come out and compete with me, I will give you a good time today." The Tubo marshal was full of confidence in the field, and in the previous battles, it was true that the combat power of the Tubo army was stronger than that of the Tang army, and even if it was really inferior, it did not cause too much loss.

Li Jingxuan is even more confident, this battle is the battle he has been looking forward to for a long time, but at this time he has no intention of grabbing the merit. "Kun Dayan, we are old friends, and it's really a pity that I want you to be my soul under the knife today. A word of advice, it's too late to disarm and surrender. ”

When the Tubo Marshal heard this, it was simply a joke, and since they couldn't talk about it, there was no need to continue.

"Tibetan soldiers, today's battle is a battle of shame. The previous shame, today I want them to double their dedication and kill. The Tubo marshal gave an order, and Da Langba rushed over as the vanguard.

At this time, the generals of the Tang Army, looking at the Tubo army rushing over, had only one thought in their hearts, that is, regret.

Li Jingxuan also calmly judged the distance, waited until the Tubo army entered the firing range, pulled out his sword and pointed at the sky: "Boom thunder, prepare, launch." ”

The trebuchet in the back had been waiting for it solemnly for a long time, and it was only ordered by the general to ignite and launch.

One by one, the thunderbolts were thrown into the air, and the range of this trebuchet was about 400 meters, and with the special thunderbolts, the power was very huge. A large thunderbolt is tied around several small thunderbolts, and the shell of the thunderbolt has also been greatly improved, and the shrapnel scattered after the explosion has great power.

More than a dozen trebuchets were launched together, and the cavalry of the Tubo army exploded in an instant, and every thunderbolt that fell could cause a huge impact within a radius of tens of meters, and the cavalry formation of the Tubo army was already chaotic.

The most important thing is the deterrent power, the weapons that are ahead of the times, the shock brought by the first appearance is not to be underestimated, and the information of the Tubo army will be crushed in an instant.

When the Tubo marshal saw this scene, he couldn't help but look like earth, he knew that the Tang army had a new weapon in his hand. However, in the previous two engagements, the Tang army did not use it, which made him think that the Tang army was just bluffing.

And now that he has really seen it, this power is no longer within the scope of his acceptance.

As the vanguard of Tibet, Da Langba was extremely courageous, even if he was startled by the thunder, it did not affect his speed in the slightest. The warriors who charged up had no idea of retreating.

"Rush, they don't have time for the second round of attacks, come on." Darumba knew that trebuchets had a long reload time, so he continued to lead his team forward, as long as he was out of range before the second wave of trebuchets arrived.

However, he thought too simply.

Vice General Xu saw that the Tubo army had rushed over and knew that it was time for him to play. "Rocket ready, launch."

In the front row of the Don Army was a row of dozens of rocket vehicles, each capable of firing ten rockets in a row. The range of the rocket is about two hundred meters.

Dozens of rockets were fired in unison, and pieces of Tibetan cavalry fell.

The charge of the Tibetan cavalry finally stopped, and before they rushed to the front of the enemy formation, they had already lost more than half of their combat strength, which was not an order of magnitude battle at all.

The Tibetan army was timid and afraid, and they did not dare to charge.

At this time, Gao Xianzhi shouted: "Tang Army soldiers, rush." ”

Under the cover of firepower, the Tang army rushed over like a tiger descending from the mountain. The Tibetan army had no ability to resist at all. The cavalry of the Tang Army in the front row was even more confident, and the Tubo army was directly defeated.

Under the desperate protection of Da Langba, the Tibetan marshal escaped death.

The Tang army directly pursued and killed for dozens of miles, turning the people killed by the Tubo army on their backs and suffering heavy losses. The most important thing is that this battle left an indelible shadow in the hearts of the Tubo army, and in front of the Tang army, it was difficult to have the Tubo cavalry who dared to charge.
