The blue sky darkened suddenly, and a dense stream of crossbow bolts poured out like a storm of steel, slapping at the cavalry.

The sky became bright again, but the cavalry that was still charging just now was already more than half, and many knights and horses were nailed like hedgehogs, and blood gushed out from the wounds, and the entire ground instantly turned red.

The Yuanrong crossbow, the terrifying weapon that the Anxi New Army relied on the most, finally showed its power for the first time!

This distance is close to the range of the Tubo horn bow. At this distance, even the Mingguang armor could not withstand this kind of attack from the Yuan Rong crossbow, let alone the cavalry with only simple leather armor.

More than 600 Yuan Rong crossbowmen fired a volley, and more than 6,000 steel arrows were like the scythe of death, reaping the lives of most of the Luo knights. There were more than 2,000 knights who fell under the rain of arrows, and the number of Tibetan cavalry still alive was less than 500.

Such a terrible casualty, even the fierce Luo cavalry also felt a huge fear, and the surviving Luo cavalry looked at the dense corpses of people and horses around them, and their faces showed panic.

It's not a fight at all, it's a massacre at all!

In front of the terrifying crossbow array of the Tang Army, they are lambs who have fallen into the trap, and they can only be slaughtered by others!

After the Yuan Rong crossbowman struck, he immediately quickly retracted back into the formation, and at the same time began to rewind the Yuan Rong crossbow. By this time, the crossbowmen of the cavalry and infantry, after a hearty volley, had finished rewinding and began to fire in the most standard three-stage manner under the orders of the junior officers.

The infantry and cavalry added up to more than 4,000 people, and more than 1,000 crossbow arrows flew out with each shot, and the remaining cavalry were trapped among the corpses of men and horses, unable to advance or retreat, and were easily crucified to the ground one by one.

There are always some of the most fierce guys on the battlefield, and the rain of arrows often can't help them, this kind of person is the so-called 100 enemies, 10,000 enemies. Ma Lan himself is such a person, and there are also such characters in the Tibetan cavalry.

After three waves of arrow rain, most of the Luo elite cavalry fell in a pool of blood, and more than a dozen of the strongest Tibetan knights pushed aside the arrow rain and rushed towards the Anxi army with maces.

Ma Xuan snorted coldly, and the spur lightly touched Qinghai Cong's abdomen, and Qinghai Cong hissed and rushed out.

Another wave of arrows flew out of the Anxi army, and several more Tibetan knights fell off their horses. Tang Jun stopped shooting, and Ma Yong and Ma Qiang followed closely behind Ma Lu, brandishing Mo knives and rushing towards the seven Tubo knights who pounced on them.

The Tibetan strong man in the front roared loudly, swinging his mace and smashing it at Ma Lu. Ma Lan sneered, and the Mo knife brought out an arc, cutting off the strong man's mace, and with a stroke, it was already a big hole in the strong man's chest, and all the internal organs flowed out.

Ignoring this guy at all, Ma Ling urged Qinghai Cheng to continue to rush forward, and when the Mo knife was swung again, it had already cut a Tubo man and his horse in two.

The strong man behind him desperately tried to stuff the internal organs back, but just stuffed it in but it flowed out, and after tossing two or three times, he fell down heavily.

At this point, there were two more Tubo masters under Ma Xuanmo's knife, both of whom were smashed with a knife, and they were all broken, which was a little bit of the demeanor of Li Siye, the general of the Mo knife.

At the beginning of Qiuzi City, Ma Lan had a battle with Li Siye, and his absolute strength surpassed Li Siye. He has been a pioneer in every battle since he joined the army, how could he have stood behind and watched the battle like now, he has been itching for a long time in the past few days, and now he is finally waiting for the opportunity.

Ma Yong and Ma Qiang brothers were guarding Ma Luan's side, each of them also killed an opponent, Ma Qiang's shoulder was swept by the enemy's mace, it looked bloody, but he could still dance the Mo knife, obviously only a flesh injury.

In the end, there was only one Tibetan knight left, looking at Ma Lu, who rushed towards him like a killing god, a trace of fear appeared in his eyes, and he turned the horse away with a strange scream.

Ma Lan let out a long laugh, pulled out a standard short spear of the Anxi Army from behind his back, and threw it vigorously.

The short spear was as fast as a meteor, and easily pierced the back of the Tibetan knight, and the Tibetan knight roared miserably and fell off the horse's back.

The elite cavalry from Luo was so easily annihilated by the Tang army.

In this battle, none of the Tang Junjians died, and only a dozen people were injured by feather arrows.

"It's so easy!" Ma Lan said in his heart.

Seeing that the main general was so brave, the Tang army athletes behind him cheered in unison, Ma Lan looked at the corpses of several Tubo knights in front of him, and among the chaotic army, he didn't know which one was Dazarugong.

At this moment, several Tang scouts galloped along the river, and among them was a Tibetan knight with a huge head in his hands.

……

The victory or defeat of a war often depends on the collective unconscious of the soldiers, and the commanders are often ignorant.

Looking at Feng Dazhong, an old soldier from Anxi who was standing in front of him with the head of Dazarugong, Ma Lan suddenly remembered this sentence that was very famous in later generations.

War is really a matter of innumerable accidents, each of which can change the outcome of war. The appearance of Feng Dazhong, a veteran of Liuzhong County, changed the situation on the entire battlefield and changed the fate of many people.

Although Dazarugon was a Tibetan general, he was not well-known in this era, at least the Anxi soldiers did not know about this person. Ma Lu came from the later generations, and out of the attitude of the later generations, he wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible, so he gave up the camp and came to face off with some cavalry.

Unexpectedly, Dazaru Gong was not in the army, but was solved by Feng Dazhong in the back.

Listening to Feng Dazhong's account of what happened, Ma Lan immediately understood what was going on.

Everything was accidental, and a series of accidents caused the immediate victory.

Yang pre harassed the Tibetan cavalry with scouts, and as a result, he shot off the banner of the Luo people and wounded the right hand of the Tibetan commander Dazarukon. It was the cavalry who were angry and poured out to besiege Yang Yu and kill them.

By this time, Dazarugon had already noticed that something was wrong and wanted to recover his cavalry. If the cavalry gave up chasing Yang and them, the battle would still be troublesome.

However, at this time, Feng Dazhong, a veteran of Anxi who had been taken captive here by the Tubo people for more than ten years, found an opportunity and broke out to kill the lone Dazarugon.

The cavalry who were charging didn't know this, so they kept chasing Yang Yu and them to the vicinity of the barracks. The Anxi army left the barracks for a frontal battle, and only then did they completely annihilate some cavalry.

This easy victory was a bit of a coincidence. Ma Lan originally thought that he would encounter the outstanding Tubo general Dazaru Gong, and this battle would definitely take some time, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

Taking over the head from Feng Dazhong's hand, Ma Lan remembered the Dazaru Gong Ji Gong Monument he saw when he went to Lhasa in his later life, and his mind was also extremely trance for a while.

In just a few days, Trisong Detsen and Dazarugong, the most famous monarchs and great treatises in Tibetan history, died at their own hands. Victory is so easy!

……

After some inquiry, Ma Lan also learned that this veteran was captured when he followed Gai Jiayun to attack Xiao Bolu, and then was brought here by the Tubo people and became a slave of Snow Eagle Dongdai. Xueying Dongdai was often sent to fight by the Zanpu of Luo, and many of the remnants of the family were women's husbands who died in the war, and Feng Dazhong married a widowed Tibetan woman here, and now has two sons with the widow.

He originally had a wife in Liuzhong County, and he missed his hometown and wanted to leave, but he couldn't find the opportunity. This time, when he saw the arrival of the Tang army, he seized the opportunity to kill Dazarugon and then came to see Wang Shi.

In this era, there are definitely many people like Feng Dazhong. The Tang Dynasty and Tubo have been fighting in the Western Regions for more than 100 years, and I don't know how many Han families have been taken captive to Tubo, and they want to return to their hometowns but can't get it. The Tubo people were extremely densely populated, and after capturing the Han army, they rarely killed, and most of them became slaves, and the sons of the Han family married wives and had children in Tubo.

Feng Dazhong slashed Dazaru Gong, which was a great achievement. In the eyes of other Anxi generals, this credit is very great, but there is nothing special, but in the eyes of Ma Lan, this credit is not too much.

Dazaru Gong led 200,000 Tibetan soldiers to capture Chang'an on the fifteenth, which had not happened in this era, but in Ma Lu's memory, he could not erase the shadow when he read history.

So when Feng Dazhong put forward his idea, Ma Lan also had to think carefully.

……

Although Feng Dazhong missed his hometown in Liuzhong County, he could not give up his Tubo wife and two sons, and he asked Ma Lan to allow Xueying Dongdai to surrender to the Tang army, which was completely different from Ma Lan's previous plan. Ma Lan originally wanted to cut off the three Zhangxiong Dongdai closest to Baishitan in order to establish his power, and then try to recruit the remaining seven Zhangxiong people in Dongdai in the name of Zhangxiong King.

The current situation is that the women and children of the Dharma tribe were killed by some cavalry, and Snow Eagle Dongdai wanted to surrender at this time. Before he established his authority, he was faced with the problem of surrender, and Ma Lu was also a little hesitant in his heart.

Several staff members followed the plateau to fish for military merits, so naturally they didn't have to use it in vain. Ma Ling asked his soldiers to take Feng Dazhong to the camp to rest first, and then walked to the river with a few staff members and asked them to express their opinions.

"General, I thought this was possible." Duan Xiushi was the first to speak, "Killing women and children is too unkind, and it is not something that the king should do. All the horsemen died at my hands, and the Elephant Male saw with their own eyes that it was enough to establish power. The Xiangxiong people are not as strong as the Luo people, and the Luo elite cavalry is still so badly defeated, how dare they fight with me? If you have fear, you can surrender them. ”

"General, what Junzi Duan said is very true, and I think so too." Cen Shen smiled, "Since these people are willing to belong, we will accept it." With the allegiance of these people, we can gain a foothold here. If you want to defend this place, you must build a city, and if you want to build a city, you must have manpower. Now that the prince of Tibet is in my hands, Zampu will definitely be unwilling and will definitely come in a surge. If we can build a strong city here before then, it will be better than 100,000 soldiers! (To be continued.) )
