Chapter 0447: Night Warrior

On the reckless Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the night is vast, the cold wind is howling, more than 20,000 Tang troops gallop across the undulating grassland regardless of the severe cold, the ice is in the mustache, the cold wind is like a knife, every soldier is silently enduring it, just looking forward to killing Mo Liyi as soon as possible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

From time to time, Tinker ran up to the nearby hill and let out a long howl, which looked mysterious and desolate in the night.

In the middle of the night, the army stopped to rest for a while, eat some dry food and drink some water, and Li Ang was surrounded by a large number of subordinates such as Guo Ziyi, Feng Changqing, Li Siye, Kaqin, Wu Xuan, Hua Qiu, Nie Feng, and Li Yu.

Guo Ziyi said with a hint of doubt: "Yunyang Hou, let's advance quickly, although we can seize the opportunity, but after all, it is impossible to completely hide from the enemy, there are 60,000 people and horses left in Moliyi in Tubo, and the stone fort is only dozens of miles away, and Zhudan can send troops back at any time;

And our army plus the men and horses in the direction of Dafeichuan, there are less than 40,000, in order to complete the encirclement quickly, including the encirclement, there is no baggage, it is difficult to last, if the enemy is aimed at this, stick to the camp and do not fight, as long as it drags on for a day or two, we have to retreat due to lack of food! ”

Tens of thousands of troops not only brought a few days of dry food, there was no follow-up baggage, but also included the encirclement of the Tubo army, and the Tubo army was not made of tofu, and it would be broken when touched, such a military operation was too risky, and it was not only Guo Ziyi who had doubts, but also Feng Changqing, Li Siye, Kaqin and others who had similar suspicions.

Only Wu Xuan, Hua Qiu, Nie Feng and other generals who were accustomed to following Li Ang, out of admiration for him, did not think that it was reasonable to do so.

Li Siye also said: "Yunyang Hou, let's march too fast, I'm afraid that the Geshu Jiedu envoy has not yet completed the deployment, once the war on our side is unfavorable, we will fall into the dilemma of fighting alone, which is really very unfavorable to us." ”

Li Ang can understand the concerns of these generals, after all, he commanded tens of thousands of troops this time, not hundreds of people, like in the past, Li Ang led a small number of men and horses to fight behind enemy lines, and it was not difficult to fill his stomach by plundering the enemy. Tens of thousands of people is another matter entirely, the land of Tibet is vast and sparsely populated, and it is impossible to satisfy the chewing needs of the army by looting alone.

As for Li Siye's concerns, Li Ang is not easy to say, in fact, he has no intention of waiting for Ge Shuhan, the so-called soldiers are not expensive, and if you add the men and horses of the Subi Ministry, he also has an army of sixty or seventy thousand, which is enough, but it is not appropriate to talk about the matter of the Subi Department now, so as not to fall short in case of leakage.

In order to dispel everyone's doubts, Li Ang said: "Generals, don't worry, Mo Liyi is the enemy's logistics supply base, as long as we are fast enough to catch him off guard, and when we take Mo Liyi, do we still have to worry about no food and grass supplies?" In addition, the terrain of the stone fort is narrow, and the enemy's grain and grass are stored in Moliyi, once we take Moliyi, the enemy will be the one who does not continue with the grain and grass. ”

"Marquis of Yunyang, although our army broke and fled in Dafeichuan, the enemy did not have time to clean up, and the enemy left 60,000 troops in Moliyi, presumably to ensure the safety of logistics and grain, so the enemy's defense must be very tight, our 20,000 troops will definitely not be able to hide from the enemy if they kill like this, and it is difficult to take Moliyi by surprise." Guo Ziyi persuaded bitterly.

"Haha...... Rest assured, generals, as the so-called no gold and steel drills, no porcelain work, as long as you arrive at Mo Liyi, I have my own clever plan to quickly break the enemy. I would like to take a break and continue the march after half an hour. ”

"Whoa!"

Guo Ziyi and the others could only be suspicious, expecting that Mo Liyi and Li Ang really had a clever plan to break the enemy.

At the same time, in the Heiniling of Dafeichuan, Cao Yan, Li Chongzan, and An Daoyuan converged here, with a total of 17,000 people, and Li Ang's 20,000 army marched east and west, flanking Mo Liyi.

"Report! Cao Jun envoy, the enemy general Anu led 10,000 cavalry to the foot of Fuwu Mountain, and our army's eastward advance was blocked. ”

"Probe!"

"Whoa!"

Cao Yan is similar to a Confucian general, usually doesn't like to talk much, this time he was appointed as the commander of the three troops and horses, Li Chongzan and An Daoyuan have to obey him.

After hundreds of thousands of troops captured the stone fort, Cao Yan and others pretended to flee to the area of Qinghai Lake. Therefore, it is too late to sweep the area around Dafeichuan.

However, Dafeichuan is located on the left flank of Shibao, and it may threaten the safety of Moliyi, the logistics grain and grass base of Tubo, at any time, so no matter how much Qi Daizhu does, it is impossible to be defenseless about it.

Encountering the enemy on the way east, Cao Yan and the three of them had already prepared for this, only 5,000 of their 17,000 men and horses were cavalry, and it was not easy to get rid of the enemy general Anu 10,000 cavalry.

Li Chongzan asked: "General Cao, the enemy army is blocked at the foot of Fuwu Mountain, and if we want to go over, we will have to go around Fuwu Mountain, so it will take two more days, not to mention that the enemy army is likely to chase after us, and it will be even more troublesome at that time." ”

An Daoyuan also nodded and said: "If this is the case, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to meet the Marquis of Yunyang on time, it is better to lead five thousand cavalry to bypass Mount Fuwu, and meet with the Marquis of Yunyang first, and you lead the infantry to deal with the enemy first." ”

Cao Yan shook his head and said: "Let's go, we are mainly responsible for blocking the reinforcements in the direction of Shibao, just five thousand cavalry past, I'm afraid it will be difficult to complete the blocking task, it's not appropriate!" ”

Mo Liyi is only sixty miles away from the stone fort, from the stone fort to the north more than thirty miles, it will arrive at the Chiling Pass, according to the prior agreement, Cao Yan and they are responsible for quickly defeating the thousands of enemy troops guarding the Chiling Pass, and build fortifications here, blocking the enemy in the direction of the stone fort to reinforce Mo Liyi, and at the same time the enemy's main force is blocked north of the mountain pass, only when this is done, can we talk about tightening the pockets.

Cavalry is good for long-distance attacks and charges, but it is still necessary to use troops to dismount and stop the enemy, so if the infantry cannot arrive in time, the problem can be serious.

"In this case, the An army will make you take 2,000 cavalry to the foot of Fuwu Mountain to fight the enemy fiercely, and then defeat and try to lure the enemy away."

"General Cao, what if the enemy is not fooled?"

"If the enemy is not fooled, it will not be too late for you to take another 5,000 troops to bypass Fuwu Mountain and join the Marquis of Yunyang first."

An Daoyuan thought about it right, so he responded: "Okay, Ben will go to meet that Anu for a while." ”

Time was pressing, An Daoyuan immediately ordered 2,000 cavalry and killed the foothills of Fuwu Mountain overnight.

In general, the tactics of the ruler belt Zhudan were not complicated, and after quickly capturing the strategic pass of Shibao, the main force went straight to Shanzhou and attacked the heart of the Tang army. Then send Zama Chili and Anu to lead the imitation divisions to sweep the left and right wings of the Yellow River Jiuqu Land and Dafeichuan, even if they can't clear these places in one fell swoop, at least they have the safety of the left and right wings, at least they want to quickly take Shanzhou City's ruler belt Zhudan thinks so.

Anu was born in the Subi tribe and was originally a capable general under Princess Dolma, but because of his affair with someone else's wife, he angered Princess Dolma, and was whipped in public and demoted to a centurion.

In order to better control the soldiers and horses of the Subi Department, after the expedition, he recruited Anu Yu to play the prelude, and promoted the reuse, and ordered him to lead the army to block alone.

Anu led 10,000 troops to the foot of Fuwu Mountain when it was already dusk, the night march was very hard, and it was also very dangerous, so he spent the night at the foot of Fuwu Mountain, and at the second watch, suddenly there was a scout cavalry report: "General, I found the Tang Army!" ”

"Great, where is the Tang Army? How many people are there? ”

"Back to the general, the Tang army has about 20,000 foot cavalry, and it is coming towards Fuwu Mountain."

"Well done! Keep exploring. Someone, pass my orders, prepare for war! ”

The adjutant general, Tawang, was sent by the ruler with Zhudan to monitor Anu, and he said at this time: "General Anu, something is wrong. ”

Anu straightened up his majestic body and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"General Anu, the Tang army in the area of Dafeichuan fled in the past, and now it has suddenly assembled into an army of 20,000 and dares to take the initiative to fight, and the changes are too great."

Anu sneered: "What's so strange about me, our army was claimed to be 400,000 kills before, and the Tang army in Dafeichuan was less than 20,000, so they are still scattered and garrisoned, dare to resist our army?" If the main force of our army has already killed the stone fort, the Tang army in Dafeichuan must think that there is an opportunity to take advantage of it, so they want to secretly attack the rear of our army, this praise has already been thought, otherwise what are we sent here for? ”

Tawang was right when he thought about it, if it was him, he would come to see if he could pick up a bargain, so he didn't say anything.

The army of 10,000 was soon ready to stop and fight its way out of the foothills. The night wind on the grassland is howling, the cold is pressing, and the ambushed mountains are like demonic beasts lurking on the ground in the night.

At this moment, on the plateau to the west, a firelight flew by, like a fire burning the plain. The dull sound of horses' hooves immediately arrived, and then another sentinel reported: "General, thousands of forwards of the Tang Army have come over!" ”

"Thousands of strikers? Hahaha......... It's a good time, I see that Ben will kill him first and leave no piece of armor. ”

Soon, the whining horn and horn sound spread in the night, and the 10,000 Tibetan army, led by Anu, greeted the fire in the west, the night wind roared, the iron hooves rumbled, and the war began in such a night.

The Tang army seemed to be in a hurry, and they did not stop, they kept urging the war horses, shouting in unison and rushing straight forward, how could the 10,000 army of Anu avoid it, once it avoided, the momentum was immediately crushed.

In this way, the two armies hedged away in the night, and soon collided together, for a time, the stone broke the earth, the sound of killing was wild, in the firelight, countless sword shadows flew, random arrows were fired, between the enemy and me, there were constantly people crying and falling to the ground, in this kind of night, no one could see their faces, who died, who lived, each with a destiny.

After a war, the shortcomings of the Tang army's insufficient strength were exposed, and under the siege of the Tubo Wubao men, the defeat was gradually revealed, An Daoyuan did not dare to fight again, and left the battle with the rest of the men and horses, and fled back to the west.

Under the victory of the Tubo army, the cheers continued, Anu did not give up, and ordered the army to chase closely, Tawang finally rushed to Anu's side and reminded: "General, be careful that the Tang army has an ambush, and you can't chase it anymore." ”

"The Tang army has just arrived, what else can they ambush on this grassland? These thousands of strikers were defeated by us, and we just rushed over to defeat the main force of the Tang Army in one fell swoop, you don't have to be verbose! (To be continued.) )
