Chapter 16: The Great Destruction of Tibet (3)

"Long live Datang!"

"Long live Datang!"

The Tang army erupted in a terrifying roar, and everyone's eyes shot a blazing light, looking at the Tibetan soldiers like hunters looking at their prey.

I don't know how many battles the Northwest Frontier Army has fought with Tibet, but I am very familiar with Tibet. They knew very well that here, on the plains of Dingbo, what awaited Tibet was bound to be a massacre.

"Array!"

Ge Shuhan gave an order, and the Tang army began to line up.

The Tang army was well-trained and disciplined, and although it was a 100,000-strong army, it was orderly and without the slightest disorder.

"Rumble!"

The dull footsteps were like thunder, shaking the ground and shaking, and I saw countless Mo Dao hands wearing shiny armor and holding Mo knives, standing at the front.

Mo knife is the sharpest weapon of the Tang Army, known for its ferocious lethality, a Mo knife weighs fifty pounds, each Mo knife hand is a strong man who is thousands of choices, all of them are tall, mighty and extraordinary, holding the Mo knife to stand in the front, majestic, like a god in the world.

Li Changguo looked at it and was shocked.

There are not dozens or hundreds, but a full three thousand. Three thousand Mo knives stood in a row holding Mo knives, and three thousand Mo knives shone in the light, like a huge mirror, and the dazzling cold light made people unable to open their eyes.

You can imagine what a shock it was.

Li Changguo has been in the Tang Dynasty for some time, participated in the battle of Xiao Bolu in the southern expedition, and has also seen Mo knife hands rushing to kill, so many Mo knife hands gathered together, put out a Mo knife battle array, he is still the first time to see it, or he will not be frightened.

"Mo Dao?"

Sambuza watched the Tang army line up, and his scalp was numb for a while.

He fought against the Tang Army a lot, and he knew that the Mo Dao battle array was powerful, and it could be said that it was incomprehensible. In front of the Mo Dao Battle Array, no matter how good your skills are, it is just for nothing, and it will not help.

Looking behind Mo Dao again, Sambuza's heart was about to pop out, because there was a more terrifying weapon than Mo Dao, that is, a strong crossbow.

The strong crossbow is a unique weapon in the world in ancient China, and it is the nemesis of the nomads.

In Chinese history, there is no shortage of strong nomadic people, such as the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Turkic, all of them are strong, growing up on horseback since childhood, riding and shooting, coming and going like the wind, and finally all perished, the reason for this is inseparable from the strong crossbow.

It can be said that if there is no strong crossbow, the nomadic peoples of the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Turks will not necessarily be destroyed!

Compared with bows and arrows, strong crossbows have two huge advantages, one is the long range, and the other is strong penetration.

The maximum range of a strong crossbow is generally about one mile, and the Qin crossbow, which is known for its strength in history, reaches an astonishing distance of one kilometer, and such a long range is tantamount to a massacre for the nomads.

As for the penetrating power, not to mention, a crossbow arrow can shoot several people or horses, and even skewer people and horses with Chengren meat skewers, such a strong penetrating power, which is what the leather armor of the nomads can resist.

"Crossbow! Crossbow! ”

Sambuza's hands were clenched into fists, so hard that his nails sank deep into the flesh.

The strong crossbow is terrible, he will not know that once the strong crossbow is powerful, the Tibetan army will not have the slightest power to fight back.

Since the Qin State during the Warring States Period, the crossbows in ancient China had a fixed size and a unified standard, which is equivalent to the current ISO.

When making crossbows, it is necessary to take into account the situation of the battlefield, and all crossbows must be able to be dismantled and easy to transport. When there is no war, the crossbow is dismantled, put on the horse, and carried away. Rush to the battlefield, take it off, assemble it, and you're done.

At this time, the crossbowman is assembling a strong crossbow. They were well-trained, they moved quickly, and in just a few moments, they assembled the crossbow.

It didn't take much effort to see thousands of powerful crossbows on the battlefield, and at first glance, they looked like ancient beasts, which was terrifying.

"If only I had a strong crossbow!"

Sambuza's eyes were full of greedy light, he knew the power of the crossbow, but it was impossible to have it, so he could only sigh in vain.

"Dashuai, let's run away."

Some Tibetan generals saw that the Tang army was arraying, and the big killing weapons such as Mo knives and strong crossbows were all displayed, and they didn't have to think about it to know that there would be a massacre next, and the best way was to flee before the Tang army attacked.

"Yes, handsome!"

The echoing sound sounded, and the Tibetan generals were all frightened, and some of the timid ones couldn't even speak, with a look of horror on their faces.

One of the big reasons why the Tibetan army could not fight the Tang army head-on was that the Tang army had two kinds of big killing weapons, the Mo knife and the strong crossbow.

"No!"

In the expectation of the generals, Sambuza decisively refused, saying: "Order, array!" ”

"Array?"

The generals looked at Sambuza, and the look in his eyes was strange, no different from looking at a madman. If Sambuza wasn't for the fact that Sambuza was a high-powered marshal, they would definitely scold Sambuza for being crazy.

Everyone knows the horror of the Mo knife and the strong crossbow, once the Tang army is completed, the Tang army's attack will be stormy and ferocious, waiting for the Tubo army is a tragic massacre, before the Tang army has not attacked, it is the best thing to flee first. However, Sambuza not only did not flee, but lined up to prepare for a big battle with the Tang army.

The Tibetan and Tang armies have fought for dozens or hundreds of years, and none of them have defeated the Tang army in a frontal hard shock.

It was Xue Rengui's army that defeated the battle of Dafeichuan, and Tubo also took the method of cutting off Xue Rengui's grain route to hit the morale of the Tang army, and then attacked.

Even so, the battle was extremely tragic, the Tibetan suffered heavy casualties, and they were unable to pursue, so they finally had to negotiate peace with the Tang Dynasty, and let Xue Rengui leave at the cost that the Tang army could no longer go deeper.

It's not that Tubo doesn't want to annihilate Xue Rengui's lone army, but Tubo can't do it!

"Do you think you can escape by running away at this time?" Sambuza's eyes shone brightly, and he looked at the generals and said, "Fleeing at this time will only make the casualties worse." First, there is a flat river here, there are no high mountains and dense forests for us to use, and escaping here is suitable for the Tang army to chase and kill. You all know that although the Tang Army is hateful, its cavalry and archery are very good, and it is not under the Great Tubo warriors. If we fled, we would have suffered heavy casualties. ”

Mounted archery is the basic skill of the Tang Army, regardless of the type of troops, and it is necessary to pass this level. Therefore, the cavalry shooting of the Tang army is very good, and even the strong Turks dare not say that they can defeat the Tang army. Fleeing here, the Tang army covered up and killed from behind, and Tubo must have suffered heavy casualties.

"The second is to fight the dignified array against the dignified array, we can't defeat the Tang army, but it's much stronger than fleeing like a swarm." Sambuza is also a good general, and he knows very well that if he fights the Tang army here, he will definitely not be able to defeat the Tang army, but it is better than fleeing in all directions.

All the generals are people who have been in battle for a long time, and they think it is true.

"Dashuai, but this is not a solution." Iron Blade Sinoro said in fear, his eyes full of fear.

"We are so." Sambuza made a gesture of his hand, and the generals came over with their ears, and Sambuza muttered for a while.

"Brilliant plan! Coup! ”

The fears of the generals were gone, and they rejoiced.

As soon as Sambuza gave an order, the generals galloped back and forth, and gave a loud order to the Tibetan army to line up. The Tibetan army was also in battle formation for a long time, and under strict orders, it had to be arrayed, and the movements were very fast, and it didn't take long for them to form a formation.

At the same time, the formation of the Don Army was formed.

Two huge military formations appeared on the plains of Dingbo, murderous, and an earth-shattering battle was about to happen.
