Seeing the Tang army brigade rushing forward, the hundreds of Kufa cavalry who were still on the shore had already lost their fear, how could anyone dare to besiege Niu Xu, and they desperately rode their horses to escape.

However, the riverbed below was crowded with people, and these guys had no place to stay, so the panicked fellows jumped down on their horses and smashed into the middle of the dense robes on the riverbed. Others galloped to both sides, trying to escape the Tang army's attack.

However, there were hundreds of people in a platoon of the Tang army, and the formation was extremely long, where could these guys escape. Thousands of iron horsemen rushed to the shore, and the snow-bright Mo knife dazzled, cutting down the panicked Kufa cavalry to the ground one by one.

Standing on the bank of the river, there is a dense crowd of people below. The gentle slope connecting the riverbed and the riverbank was crowded with people, all of whom were the Great Eater Cavalry who had just fled, and they were extremely frightened when they looked at the Tang army above with swords.

"Kill!" Ma Lan looked at the alien warriors below, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The Yuan Rong crossbowmen re-hung the Mo knife to the saddle, removed the Yuan Rong crossbow from the back, and adjusted it to a single shot mode, standing on the shore and firing a salvo at the big cannibal below.

At such a close distance, there is no difference between setting a fixed target, and the range of the Yuanrong crossbow in the single-shot shooting mode is comparable to that of the Fuyuan crossbow, which shows how amazing the muzzle velocity is, a wave of arrows rained down, and all the Kufa cavalry on the slope fell, and the Kufa cavalry in the riverbed also fell a large piece.

The crossbowmen did not make a move, but retreated to the rear, giving up the shooting position to the Yuanrong crossbowmen.

Ma Lu had ordered in advance, so the crossbow arrows shot at this time basically fell on the cavalry, and rarely fell on the war horses.

The war horse of the big cannibal is extremely powerful, and this battle is also the target of Ma Lu's hunting. Now that it's come to this point, it would be a shame to shoot the war horse again.

Nearly 3,000 Yuan Rong crossbowmen fired volleys again and again, constantly extending forward, and each shot could kill more than 2,000 Kufa cavalry. In single-shot mode, the Yuanrong crossbow fires faster than the bow and arrow, and harvests human lives as quickly as the scythe of death.

The dense Kufa cavalry below the river bank quickly became sparse, and the surviving Kufa cavalry had room to escape, no one dared to turn back to face the enemy, and all of them ran away desperately. I want to escape the river and escape.

A large number of great food war horses that had lost their owners screamed and scurried in the riverbed, and Ma Lan looked at these divine horses, and his eyes were hot.

Most of the horses of the Anxi New Army came from the pastoral areas of the Turks, and those of the Fergana Basin are already treasures. However, the best war horse is naturally the Arabian horse.

These war horses have been regarded by Ma Lan as his private property, and naturally they can't let Yuan Rong's crossbowmen fire a salvo. It's all a treasure, and it would be a shame to kill it when the battle is already decided.

The Yuan Rong crossbowman shot ten steel arrows and retreated to reload them. More than 3,000 crossbowmen were on guard, but they did not shoot.

All this happened in a very fast time, and there were only about 10,000 Kufa cavalry alive in the riverbed, most of whom had crossed the shallow water and rushed to the opposite bank in the silt-covered riverbed, and the first one had reached the shore and was about to rush up the slope.

Abdullah's 20,000 Syrian legionnaires stood on the shore in unison, blocking every slope, and the Kufa cavalry were blocked in their way, shouting loudly on the slope: "Get out of the way! Get out of the way! ”

"Kill these shameful deserters!" Abdullah snorted. A short spear in his hand was thrown suddenly, piercing the leather armor of a Kufa cavalryman not far away. The Kufa cavalry screamed and fell from his horse.

High on the riverbank, a dense stream of short spears suddenly flew out, flying towards the Kufa cavalry below.

Where did the Kufa cavalry expect that the Syrian legion would do something to them, and in an instant, a large piece was overturned. Such a close distance is the most effective killing range of the short spear. The sudden blow of the Syrian regiment immediately blinded the Kufa cavalry, and at this moment another short spear flew under the riverbed.

The 20,000 cavalry of the Syrian legion were distributed on the wide river bank, and a short spear flew out, nailing all the Kufa cavalry who dared to approach the river bank to the ground. The gentle slopes leading to the river bank were all blocked. The Kufa cavalry were in disarray, and some of them drew their short spears from behind and threw them at the shore, and they were immediately knocked to the ground by more short spears.

The sudden blow caused the Kufa cavalry to be in a mess. Khalid is dead. The Kufa cavalry was leaderless, and the generals reluctantly beckoned their subordinates, but they didn't know what to do.

After a few waves of short spears, the riverbed near the bank was covered with the corpses of the Kufa cavalry. The remaining Kufa cavalry did not dare to come any closer, and gathered together by the shallow river.

"Abdullah, you're rebelling!" A general shouted at Abdullah, who was standing on the shore.

Abdullah ignored him. The soldiers of the Legion were ordered to take their bows and arrows and shoot them into the riverbed.

The short spear is powerful, but the range is not as good as that of the bow and arrow. The entire riverbed was two or three hundred paces wide, and the riverbank was more than a hundred paces away from the river, within the range of the bow and arrow. The dense feathered arrows were fired in one fell swoop, and the Kufa cavalry was shot off their horses one by one.

The Kufa cavalry in the riverbed reacted at this time, and hurriedly took out their bows and arrows and began to counterattack, while someone took out their shields to block the rain of arrows. The Syrian legion, which had been prepared, immediately erected a row of large shields to block the sparse counterattack of the Kufa cavalry, and occasionally the Kufa cavalry shot the feather arrows too high, passing the block of the big shield, but when they fell, they had no strength, and basically did not do much damage to the Syrian fighters.

The Kufa cavalry in the riverbed could not withstand the blows of the rain of arrows on the shore, and the chaotic riverside rushed back and forth, and the number of people became smaller and smaller.

One of the generals looked at the enemy on both sides, shouted suddenly, and fled downstream with a few hundred knights under his command down the river. The distance of the blockade of the Syrian regiment is only a few miles, and if you escape this range, you may escape with your life.

Abdullah sneered, and a group of knights galloped downstream.

"My lord, the Tang army has sent a signal, let's stop attacking."

It was the guy who had no ears who spoke, and he had been staring in the direction of the Tang army on the other side.

"Huh?"

Abdullah wondered in his heart, there were still nearly 10,000 Kufa cavalry in the riverbed, what was the purpose of stopping the attack now?

However, Abdullah had no mind to calculate the Tang army, and he naturally obeyed the Tang army's request, ordering the soldiers to stop firing arrows, and only monitored the Kufa cavalry in the riverbed and did not let them approach the riverbank.

The Tang army on the other side stood densely on the bank of the river, and had no intention of attacking again. The battlefield suddenly became calm, and for a moment it seemed extremely strange.

"Abdullah! You scumbag! You have betrayed the great caliphate! ”

"Abdullah! You bastard! ……”

On the shallow edge of the river, the Kufa cavalry who survived the catastrophe were frightened and stable, and some people pointed at Abdullah and scolded one after another. Abdullah ignored them, but ordered his warriors to hold the slopes and shoot any Kufa cavalry who dared to come closer.

Standing on the other side, Ma Lin was extremely satisfied with the performance of the Syrian regiment. The Syrian legion succeeded in trapping the Kufa cavalry in the riverbed, and the battle was much easier to win.

The Kufa cavalry were all on the other side of the river, some pointed at Abdullah and yelled, some tried to escape in the direction of the river, and many more gathered helplessly.

Of the 40,000 robes, only these people are left, and the rest are dead. Even the stupidest Kufa warriors knew that Abdullah had conspired with the Tang people to betray Caliph al-Mansur. None of them expected it, and the vizier was nowhere to be seen, and no one knew what to do.

40,000 cavalry was such a powerful force in the empire, but when it came to distant Khorasan, it was so simply defeated.

Most are waiting, waiting for an unknown fate. Many warriors jumped off their horses, knelt on the muddy ground and began to pray, praying for Allah's protection.

……

Miles away from the battlefield, upstream of the river valley.

The valley was a bay a few days ago, but now it is a huge flat lake.

The new owner of your Shabug City, the Tang-appointed tax collector, Bagari, stood on top of the hastily erected levee and took a deep breath. Next to him are thousands of citizens who have come here from your Shabuer City.

The water overflowed the embankment and slowly flowed downstream, looking extremely gentle. At this time of year, the river is at the time of its roar.

On the grass next to the embankment, 300 Tang Army scouts were fully armed, and they were all murderous.

Bageri understood that after doing this, his family would have no way back, and could only be firmly tied to the battlefield of the Tang people, and there was no possibility of riding the wall again.

If one day the Tang people are driven out of your Shabuer, his family will fall into ruin. Today's events are enough for the caliph to destroy his family a thousand times.

This is the price of the leading party, and he has no other choice. I only hope that the Tang people can occupy Khorasan forever, and the Bageri family can be rich forever under the wings of the Tang people.

On a rock in the distance, the Tang Army scout waved the order flag in his hand.

"The time has come!" Bageri took a deep breath and shouted, "Do it!" ”

Hundreds of Persians quickly ran to the embankment and pulled the ropes between the boulders, and several huge stones were pulled out of the embankment, and the lake rushed out and flowed downstream.

The water in the flat lake has gathered deeply, and after there is an outlet, it pours out frantically. No sooner had the Persians opened a hole a few feet wide than the whole embankment began to tremble.

Bageri roared loudly, and led the Persians to the shore quickly, and just stepped on the ground of the lake, only to hear a loud bang, the already unstable foundation of the embankment completely collapsed, and the lake roared downward, instantly filling the entire riverbed, and the white waves were several feet long, sweeping downward.

The white waterline rushed like a galloping horse, rushing towards the riverbed at high speed, surging over the riverbed, like thunder. (To be continued.) )
