Chapter 205: The Brave Are the King 3

"Kill! Sons, I captured Li Hong for my prime minister, and my prime minister is rewarded! Lu Dongzan roared loudly and rushed towards Li Hong with murderous energy.

As long as Li Hong is captured alive, he will not only give freedom to the soldiers, but also give them land and cattle and sheep, as well as women and slaves, so when he sees the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo Jingqi is like seeing the land and women of cattle and sheep and seeing freedom, and he can't wait to rush to Li Hong immediately and capture him alive.

100 Steps-

Eighty Steps——

Sixty Steps——

Forty steps-

Just as the two cavalry were getting closer and closer, suddenly "Whoosh! Sou! Sou! The sound pierced the night sky, and a series of dark feathered arrows shot into the formation of the Tubo elite horsemen.

"Ahh

"Ouch-"

Suddenly, screams rang out on the battlefield, and one after another.

Because at this moment, the hundreds of Tibetan elites who were charging at the forefront were hit by arrows, and they all fell off their war horses fiercely, and were trampled into pulp by the war horses of their companions behind them.

"Poof—"

"Bang-"

The horses neighed and screamed. The two elite cavalry have not yet touched, and there is a burst of people in the camp of the Tubo elite cavalry.

The crossbow bolt has a short range, but it is easy to shoot at short distances. However, in the face of the extremely fast Tubo spirit horse, the crossbow arrows of the Tang Iron Cavalry could only shoot one round, and then they raised the war knife in their hands and rode to meet the Tubo spirit horse that rushed forward.

Zhao Zhongyong rushed to the front of the army, and the six hundred Tubo elite horsemen beside him did the same, closely following Zhao Zhongyong's side, and greeted his companions with murderous spirit.

For Li Hong, when he got Zhao Zhongyong, he not only got a Tubo brave general, but also got a Tubo elite horseman. Therefore, if it weren't for Zhao Zhongyong, this time the Northwest Baggage Hong would not dare to take this Tubo spirit out of the horse, he was afraid that if he didn't command them, in the end, these 600 people would turn against the water, but it would kill him. But now that there is Zhao Zhongyong, I don't know what method he used to subdue them, but Li Hong knows very well that these six hundred Tubo elite horsemen have become his elite horses, one of his strong fighting horsemen.

"Kill-" Zhao Zhongyong rushed into the camp of the Tubo people first.

"Poof—"

Zhao Zhongyong swung his sword and resulted in a Tubo cavalryman in front of him, splitting the opponent in half.

This kind of bravery, this kind of killing, even among the turtle people, is rare, so when Zhao Zhongyong slashed a Tubo elite horseman with a knife, the cavalry who rushed up was already afraid in his heart when he faced him, and the scimitar he raised was also half a beat slower, and Zhao Zhongyong continued to swing out and cut off his head.

Zhao Zhongyong's six hundred Tubo elite cavalry, although their number is very small, but all of them are the elite of the Tubo elite cavalry, and their combat effectiveness is naturally much stronger than the Tubo elite cavalry in front of them, although they are not as brave as Zhao Zhongyong in the face of the enemy who rushed up, but the same scimitar was swung out, and with just a slight stroke, they harvested the lives of the enemy in front of them.

Just a face, Zhao Zhongyong's 600 Tubo elite cavalry cut down 600 Tubo cavalry, and none of them suffered casualties.

Zhao Zhongyong rushed into the Tubo camp and did not stop advancing, but led his six hundred elite horsemen to rush forward to kill, because he knew the intention of His Royal Highness the Prince, which was to rush into the city in the Tubo army and rush out of the city.

Doing so would prevent the Tubo elite cavalry from entering the city quickly to buy time for Guo Shifeng and Heizhi Changzhi, and at the same time, the 5,000 iron cavalry would fight their way out of the 20,000 elite cavalry, which was also a blow to the morale of the Tubo people.

Moreover, if Li Hong wants to execute his plan immediately, he must kill a bloody path in front of Lu Dongzan's eyes.

Zhao Zhongyong's 600 iron cavalry submerged into the Tubo army, Chen Gong led Li Hong, the 800 guards and the guardian, rushed into the school road that Zhao Zhongyong killed, and Li Duoqi on both wings led 4,000 iron cavalry, constantly shooting the enemy in front of him with crossbow arrows, and constantly slashing and killing the approaching Tubo elite cavalry with a war knife.

This tactic is not very sharp, but it is the most practical one to put in front of you.

There are arrows, two wings, and the Chinese army, and such a breakthrough formation is the only formation to break through the Tubo elite cavalry.

"Rush-" Li Duoqi led four thousand iron horsemen, and while rushing to kill, he tightly guarded Chen Gong's eight hundred guards. Because Chen Gong's 800 guards are the core strength of the prince, the prince's safety is finally pinned on these 800 guards, if these 800 guards are lost, the prince's safety will be in danger.

Li Duoqi's four thousand iron cavalry are also veterans of a hundred battles, and after Li Duoqi's devilish training, plus they are equipped with sharp and sophisticated embroidered spring knives, their combat effectiveness is absolutely terrifying.

Therefore, when the Tibetan spirit cavalry encountered them, they could not resist their slashing at all.

The scimitar of the Tubo Elite Rider was even softer when it slashed on their war knives, either broken or cut out of a gap, and just when the Tubo Elite Rider was surprised by this, the combat knives of the Tang Iron Cavalry had already swung towards their necks, blood gushed out, spilled all over the ground, and they also lost their lives.

A Tibetan elite cavalry rushed into the camp of Li Duoqi's army, raised his scimitar, and slashed at a Tang army iron cavalry. The Tang Army's iron cavalry raised its sword to meet it, and he heard a "click", and a broken scimitar fell to the ground, but the trajectory of the war knife was still unchanged, and it continued to row towards the chest of the Tubo elite horseman, "Poof! At that moment, just as the Tibetan spirit rider was stunned, a flower of blood erupted from his chest, and he was slashed through his chest by his opponent's sword.

Such a killing instantly spread throughout the battlefield.

Without the advantage in horsemanship, and falling inferior in weapons, the combat effectiveness of the Tubo elite cavalry plummeted, while the combat effectiveness of the Datang Iron Cavalry plummeted. Wherever the Tang Dynasty Iron Cavalry passed, the Tubo Elite Cavalry was cut down like a tofu block, and the scene of being slaughtered was very strange and appeared on the battlefield at the city gate.

Not far away, the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were still fighting with the Tubo elite cavalry were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene. What kind of combat power is this, so that the chickens and dogs that are killed by the fierce Tubo people have no combat effectiveness?

This, His Royal Highness the Prince's personal guard army is too powerful, right?

Lu Dongzan's shock when he saw this scene was difficult to regain, when did Li Hong have such an elite cavalry by his side, how could his combat effectiveness be so strong, and the combat knife of this elite cavalry was too sharp, which was beyond Lu Dongzan's imagination.

The Tubo people, who have always lacked iron and lack weapons, attach great importance to weapons, Lu Dongzan deliberately spent a lot of money to build this gorgeous cavalry in front of him for this war, but now he found that the Tang Dynasty was already much ahead of them in terms of weapons, and now he found out that the reason why Li Hong was so arrogant just now was that he had such a divine weapon as a support.

No, this must be stopped!

Lu Dongzan thought in his heart, so he shouted loudly, "Sons, whoever wants to capture Li Hong alive will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold, 10,000 cattle and sheep, and a piece of pasture." Whoever kills a Tang Iron Rider will be rewarded with ten taels of gold and one hundred sheep, and then you will be given freedom. ”

When the Tibetan elite cavalry heard Lu Dongzan's reward, they all rushed to Li Hong and Li Duoqi's iron cavalry in spite of their lives.

Because the reward shouted by Lu Dongzan is too rich, this should be placed in Tibet, which is the treatment of middle nobles. Converted from the military exploits of the Tang Dynasty, it is equivalent to sealing the county duke, rewarding you with millions of yuan, and giving you a state fief.

Tibet is a slave country, as long as a person is given land, then this land is the private property of this person, but all the people living on this land, their power of life and death is all decided by this person, and the people living on this land will naturally become this person's slaves.

This kind of reward is somewhat similar to the feudal system during the Warring States period, where you are given a piece of land, and you are the king of that land. Therefore, as soon as Lu Dongzan shouted out the reward, the Tubo spirit rode crazy, and rushed towards Li Hong and Li Duoqi's iron horsemen like mad dogs.

"Kill-" A group of mad dog-like Tubo spirits slaughtered Li Duoqi's iron horseman, and they suddenly felt that the pressure around them had increased a lot.

Gradually, Li Duoqi's iron cavalry also suffered casualties, and many knights were surrounded by seven or eight Tibetan elite cavalry, and they were killed by the Tibetan elite cavalry because of physical exhaustion.

Poof!

Poof!

Seeing the cavalry around him fall off his horse one by one, Li Duoqi was also annoyed and angry. But what can he do at this time, the army is in the encirclement of the Tubo people, and only by killing it can he solve the crisis in front of him.

Li Hong was surrounded by five thousand iron cavalry, and he saw the scene that happened just now, the iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty carried out a crushing slaughter of the Tubo elite cavalry with the war knife in his hand, but because of Lu Dongzan's reward order, the Tubo elite cavalry began to use the tactics of the sea of people to crack the advantage of the Tang Dynasty iron cavalry, and the Tang cavalry fell into a crisis, because even if his own iron cavalry was very strong in combat, but he was killed against the Tubo elite cavalry, even if it was one to ten, but the final result was that he was going to be captured by Lu Dongzan.

Thinking of this, Li Hong immediately ordered Chen Gong beside him, "Order the guards to shoot at the surrounding Tubo elite horses." ”

Before, because of the consideration of having to deal with the Ludong army for two days, in order to save arrows, Chen Gong did not order the guards to use bows and crossbows, only Li Duoqi's iron cavalry used crossbows and arrows to kill the Tubo people.

Now at the moment of crisis, Li Hong didn't want to do so much, so he issued such a military order.

Chen Gong received the order, and with an order, the eight hundred guards collectively bent their bows and arrows, aiming at the Tubo elite cavalry that rushed towards the Tang Dynasty Iron Cavalry. They were guarded by Li Duoqi's iron cavalry in the middle, and they were not threatened by the killing of the Tibetan elite cavalry, and they did not have any psychological pressure when aiming at the enemy, so when they bent their bows and arrows, and then shot their own arrows, their accuracy was very high.

"Shoot the arrows!" Chen Gong immediately ordered.

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! Sou! Eight hundred feathered arrows were shot, densely packed like locusts and pounced on the Tubo elite cavalry who rushed towards the Tang Iron Cavalry on both sides
