Chapter Seventy-Six: It's Over

—— When it was about to get dark, a scout finally returned to the camp to report to him the whereabouts of the Tang army, and the battle situation of Mantou Mountain, Kushan, and Niuxindui also reached his hands, which surprised Shang Jiexi, but he felt very fortunate in addition to being surprised.

The combat power of the Tang army was so powerful that it captured Kushan, Chiling, Mantou Mountain, and Niuxindui, where nearly 10,000 people were stationed in such a short period of time, and continued to march rapidly after capturing these places, and came to the front line of Dafeichuan unknowingly.

The scout's report was that the Tang army had appeared three hundred miles away from Dafeichuan and would arrive in about two or three days, which made Shang Jiexi, who had palpitations, feel lucky. His scouts finally found out the general whereabouts of the Tang army, and they also found the traces of the other party when the Tang army was only two hundred miles away from his camp, giving him time to react.

But Shang Jiexi couldn't have imagined that the news returned by the scouts was Pang Zhong's men and horses farthest away from Dafeichuan, and it was the Tang army farthest away from Dafeichuan. Several other Tang troops had already approached their camp in Dafeichuan, but they didn't know about it. Because Pang Zhong's troops followed Yang Xi's troops after the end of the Battle of Kushan, they were not equipped with members of the special task force in front of their formation, and they were detected by the Tubo scouts who sneaked closer.

This was the only person in the Tang army who attacked in the direction of Dafeichuan and was found out by the scouts of Tubo all the way.

After receiving the scout's report, Shang Jiexi immediately summoned his leaders to discuss countermeasures and make arrangements.

Judging from the information received, the Tang army is still 300 miles away, and it will arrive in three days at the earliest, excluding the time for the scouts to return, it will take at least two days. Two days is not a short time, and Shang Jiexi feels that he has enough time to respond and arrange.

When I received a message from a scout. It was already dark, and Shang Jiexi did not immediately order his men and horses to act immediately to make arrangements. In the winter, when his sergeants arrived at night, many of them could not see the surrounding scenery clearly, and they were blind, and they did not move at night.

In ancient times, the incidence of night blindness was high in winter, when no vegetables were eaten, animal internal organs were discarded as filth, and there was not enough vitamin A supplementation. The incidence of night blindness was very high, and the Tibetan army suffered from it at least halfway through, so the Tibetan army did not move at night in winter. Moreover, the nights in winter are unusually cold, and both men and horses are frozen.

But the Tibetan people could not have imagined that the Tang army had completely overcome these problems, and since Yang Xi proposed to force the soldiers to eat animal offal, night blindness has basically disappeared in the army. Shang Yuxi, who didn't expect this, couldn't have imagined that the Tang Army was moving so fast.

In his opinion, the Tang army must camp and rest at night. It is impossible to advance in a hurry overnight, and basically will not launch an attack at night, and with this idea of estimating the speed of the Tang army's march, he naturally concluded that the Tang army will not reach the Dafeichuan line until at least two days later.

According to the situation that has been inquired, the specific arrangement made is: early tomorrow morning. He personally led 80,000 horses and set up an ambush in a canyon in front of the Tang army. It was a very good ambush place, and if the Tang army wanted to enter the Dafeichuan, this canyon could be said to be a must-pass place. 80,000 horses and horses set up an ambush there, and it is absolutely impossible for the Tang army from afar to escape, and this battle is likely to completely annihilate the Tang army.

Even if the Tang army cannot be completely annihilated. It can also be inflicted on it.

Thinking of the possibility of annihilating the Tang army in one battle, Shang Yuxi was very excited.

But just in case, he also ordered Dazarugon and his eldest son Tasigai to set up camp early tomorrow morning with 30,000 men and horses, and to bypass the ravine where he had prepared to set up an ambush, and to support him on both flanks, so as to avoid accidents.

At the same time, he also ordered his third son, Sinuoer, to go to the front army and personally command the front soldiers and horses, so as not to be attacked by the Tang army in case of accidents.

When assigning tasks, Shang Jiexi repeatedly ordered anyone to act strictly according to orders, and if anyone made a mistake, he would lose his head, even his own son. The leader of his subordinates knew Shang Yuxi's character, and no one dared to be careless.

After inquiring about these circumstances, Shang Jiexi also admired Yang Xi very much, and was further impressed by Yang Xi.

Although Yang Guozhong is known for his incompetence, Shang Jiexi couldn't imagine that Yang Guozhong, a young son, would be so powerful, and he would easily capture Kushan, Mantou Mountain, and Niuxindui guarded by the Tubo people. You must know that when Ge Shuhan led the army to attack Shibao City, in the face of Shibao City, which was defended by less than 1,000 Tubo troops, the Tang army paid the price of nearly 10,000 people. Although the terrain of Kushan, Mantou Mountain, and Niuxindui is not as dangerous as Shibao City, they are all easy to defend and difficult to attack, but they are difficult to capture by the Tang army led by Yang Xi.

This must be a very powerful opponent, even more powerful than any Tang Army general he has encountered in the past, this is Shang Jiexi's emotion after the deployment is completed. In fact, it is not necessarily difficult to live up to the fame, and the fall of An Lushan does not seem to be accidental. Shang Jiexi naturally classified Yang Xi among the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, and even put his status in the same position as Gao Xianzhi, Ge Shuhan, and Wang Zhonghe.

Shang Jiexi couldn't have imagined that Yang Xi would dare to go deep into the front line of Dafeichuan and want to attack his camp in such a cold weather situation, when it was very unsuitable for large-scale military operations. Yang Xi's adventurous strategy had already paid off miraculously, and the various fortresses he had stationed nearly 10,000 horses were lost in an instant, and the gates of Qinghai were wide open. Shang Jiexi already regretted it a little, he should have deployed heavy troops on the front line of Kushan and Chiling, and even led the army himself to defend it, so that the Tang army might not be able to capture it so easily.

It's just that the terrain around Kushan is dangerous, and there is no way to send heavy troops to defend it.

Fortunately, the heavens still favored him, and discovered his whereabouts when the Tang army had not yet arrived close to Dafeichuan.

If Yang Xi is really captured, he will definitely give him heroic courtesy, and the most respected by the Tubo people is the warrior. Yang Xi is a respectable opponent, even if they are dead now, this is Shang Jiexi's evaluation of Yang Xi.

After the arrangement, it was already very late when Shang Yuxi returned to the big tent to sleep, and he was busy for more than half a day, and he was really tired, and he fell asleep when he fell.

As soon as he fell asleep, Shang Jiexi had a dream that he led his army to ambush Yang Xi, but Yang Xi fled, and the Tang army led by Yang Xi came out of nowhere and killed his camp. The sound of horses' hooves shook the sky, Tang Jun's shouts and killings could be heard clearly, and even heard the violent explosions, and the loud shouts of his own guards, he was suddenly awakened.

"Big talk, it's not good, the Tang army has attacked the camp, the Tang army has attacked the camp, and tens of thousands of Tang troops have rushed over!"

With a shout, the captain of his guard rushed in quickly.

"What?" The drowsy Shang Jiexi didn't react at once.

The captain of the guard reported loudly again with a trembling voice: "Comment, the Tang army has attacked the camp, and the Tang army has rushed to the camp and is rushing over here!"

"What? The Don army actually attacked the camp? Shang Jiexi suddenly lifted the thick futon on his body, got out of bed with very agile movements, grabbed the collar of his guard captain, and asked loudly: "Yan Nan, you read it right?" Is it really the Tang army attacking the camp? ”

Yan Tian, who was still holding his collar by Shang Jiexi, was frightened and his words were knotted, "Big talk...... It's the Tang Army, the Tang Army...... The Tang army attacked from several directions, and there were many of them, tens of thousands of people...... They used a powerful weapon, and our army suffered heavy casualties!"

"Oh my God, isn't Tang Jun still two hundred miles away? Will they fly? Shang Jiexi was stunned, and forgot to take his clothes and put them on. Tens of thousands of Tang troops began to attack the camp, how did they come here, did they fall from the sky? No, it's certain that this Tang Army was not detected by their own scouts, and the scouts came back to report that they had only found another Tang Army.

He was careless, the elite men and horses of the Tang Army were too powerful, and they attacked and killed all the scouts sent by his side, so he couldn't receive the movement of the Tang Army.

It's over, he's destined for big trouble today.

"Immediately give the order and do your best to resist the sneak attack of the Tang army!" Shang Jiexi also calmed down immediately, put on his robe three times and two times, and rushed out with his weapon. He already understood that today there was no other way than to resist desperately and find a way to escape from the surprise attack of the Tang army.

"Yes, Da Lun, my subordinates will prepare immediately!" Yan Nan ran out to sort out the guards.

"Anyway, the Tang army has come in!" Another person quickly rushed to the tent and shouted: "Da Zhuan, it's not good, the Tang army has attacked the camp, and it has already attacked my camp...... There are their spies in our army, and many tents have been burned......"

Shang Jiexi ignored the report of the subordinate who rushed in later, pushed him away, and quickly rushed out of the tent when the subordinate fell a big fall, and checked the situation. Shang Jiexi, who hurriedly rushed out of the tent, saw the scene that surprised him.

Many tents in his camp were set on fire, and the number of tents lit continued to increase, reflecting the red for a long time, many people escaped from the tents, shouting and jumping in a mess, the overwhelming sound of horses' hooves had come in the direction of their main tent, and the roar of unknown things was mixed in, and there were earth-shattering shouts and killings all around, covering one wave after another, which showed that the Tang cavalry of the brigade had already rushed into the camp.

"Comment, let's run away, the Tang Army's attack is very fierce, we can't resist it!" Yan Nan rode his horse and ran close to Shang Yuxi's side, pleading: "Our army has been completely defeated, and we can't organize resistance at all, there are Tang troops in the east, north, and south directions, and we can only flee to the west." ”

"Retreat to the west!" Shang Jiexi gave the order with a blank face. (To be continued......)
