Chapter 0516. You didn't negotiate the pit

In the seventh century AD, most people's concept of war is still stuck in the battle of a city and a place, war, no matter how long it takes, either one side retreats, or the real sword and gun will fight in one place, completely defeat one side, this can end the war, even if you want to dig a trench, it is also to stay in the siege war, like the field war such a large-scale use of trenches, or the first time. {This site has a new URL,Shorthand method:,.]

It is no wonder that there are not many such cases in history, when two armies with strong defenses meet, and neither of them is willing to take the lead.

In the ignorant acquiescence of the Tianzhu army, the Fujian * team dug out a huge trench more than ten miles long, more than two meters deep, and more than two meters wide, presenting a semicircle to besiege the army of the Lou Qi people on the vast plain.

Since you don't realize what I'm digging for, then you don't have to discuss it.

For so many days in a row, the 430,000 South Indian army took water from the Ganges, seeing that the Tang army was going to seize its own water source, Aloshun finally became anxious, not blindly defending, and ordered the army to attack in a panic, but in order to prevent the Tang army from advancing with heavy crossbow equipment, the land near the Tianzhu army was dug in tatters, and the cavalry was not easy to walk, and after the infantry cleared a passage that could be walked, the trenches in front of the river were dug out for dozens of meters.

The South Tianzhu Decan Plateau is much more barren than the North Tianzhu Ganges Plain, but it has the advantage that the plateau pastures are suitable for raising horses.

More than 10,000 fierce Chalou Qi cavalry rushed to the trench on the side of the Tang army river with a Damascus scimitar, A Luo Shun and the king of Chaori rode under the nervous gaze of the elephant's head, and the more than 1,000 Tang troops who dug the pit were very spineless, dropped their hoes and ran away, and the two Tianzhu kings laughed arrogantly at the look of embarrassment. "Hahaha, Tang Dog is nothing more than that."

"How dare you cut off the water source of my army?"

But then, the two Tianzhu kings couldn't laugh, the Tang army's semicircular trench connected to the section of the Ganges River tributary, and suddenly shot out a rain of arrows, and under the dense crossbow arrows, the Southern Tianzhu cavalry who was showing off their might and wielding a saber by the river directly fell into a large piece.

"Damn, Tang Dog has an ambush opposite the trench, and ordered the cavalry to capture Tang Gou's ambush."

Without waiting for A Luo Shun to react, the young and vigorous Chaori King had already shouted angrily and ordered, obviously a little unhappiness flashed on his face, but A Luo Shun quickly endured it, anyway, it was not his cavalry, try it.

Standing on the head of the elephant, the herald waved his banner, in fact, without the order of the main formation, and Monsata, the man of Shalou, who had been hit with a crossbow arrow, had already roared angrily and led his cavalry to charge towards the trench, but after a moment he knew what it meant to be miserable.

More than a dozen bed crossbows were pushed up to the mound and shot out a fan-like horror, more than two meters long crossbow arrows can often penetrate three or five*, more than 50 crossbow arrows are like invisible fists at once, knocking down a large part of the cavalry of the Chalou Qiren cavalry, and the horse behind stepped on the overturned horse in front, and it was even more a person on his back.

Taking advantage of the chaotic efforts of the enemy's cavalry, the crossbowmen of the Tang Army in the back climbed up the mound and fired another round, and the heavy losses hit the Chaori King in the distance, and the Monsata Tuwang in the near distance was almost mad.

Lost one or two hundred cavalry by a sneak attack, and more than five hundred cavalry died after the attack was frustrated, and they didn't even touch the enemy's hair.

Thirty meters, twenty meters, ten meters, the elite cavalry even saw the panicked faces of the crossbowmen of the Tang army on the other side of the pit.

"Tang dog, suffer death!"

The southern accent of Tianzhu roared, and the most vanguard elite cavalry raised their Damascus scimitars, and the snow-bright blades and metal armor emitted a breathtaking glittering cold light in the sun, and they jumped up happily, and the cavalry even saw the next moment that their blades slashed in* and brought a large area of blood.

However, Captain Shalou Qishatrili, who was at the forefront of the wild run, suddenly frowned suspiciously, and in his sight, the Tang dog on the opposite side actually smiled?

The next moment he understood.

The war horse jumped over the trench of more than two meters briskly and skillfully, but there was a ditch on the opposite side of the ditch close in front of him, because the fill behind the second ditch was higher than the first ditch, he could not see it at all under the trompe l'oeil, his eyes were stared at as bull's eyes, and he was full of fear and dragged the long sound of the small tongue jumping straight down, and the cavalry captain who had practiced martial arts for more than ten years took the reins of the horse and fell straight into the second wider ditch, and even the man and the horse fell with a serious fracture, and the crisp sound of Gaba made people have a straight toothache.

Before the poor captain could groan in pain, his robe above him also dragged a long scream and fell down, which solved the poor captain's pain at once, and directly stoned him to death.

The soldiers who can rush to the front are generally the best and bravest in riding, and after seeing more than two hundred elites jumping over the trench and seeing the monster and disappearing to the ground with a scream, the cavalry behind subconsciously reined in the war horse and stopped, but did it stop when it was said before the battle formation? The cavalry behind rushed over and drove the group directly into the pit.

It can be counted that the crater was filled in the cascading screams, and the cavalry that rushed over also stopped.

The Tang army who collected the pit was not idle.

Seizing this time, the bed crossbow and steel crossbow were reloaded, and the Min crossbowmen came with a salvo again easily and happily......

The remnants of more than 8,000 cavalry broke up, screaming and fleeing back like a wive, they also knew that even people and horses, and how could a trench with a thousand or so people be filled, the question is, whose life is not life? Even the lord Monsata couldn't control this rout, and seeing that one by one his subordinates who had fled back were torn off their horses and taken down on the spot by the royal court's forbidden army, Monsata, who led the team, trembled like a newborn chicken, trembling and kneeling under the war elephant of the Chaori King.

"Rice bucket, waste!"

Turning the long whip, the young Chaori King was simply furious, roaring and pumping in anger, even the armor of Monsata was shattered, and he gloated on the side for a long time, and then Luo Shun raised his hand and persuaded him: "Your Majesty, stop your anger!" Your Majesty, the top priority is how to get the situation back and not let the Tang people continue to be arrogant. ”

His hands were sour, and the king of Chaori also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, threw the whip, and roared angrily to the back: "Jinnaro, take down the position of the Tang dogs for this king, and kill those Tang dogs!" ”

"Yes, my king!"

A strong man who was two and a half meters tall and muscularly supported by gold armor ran out of the camp, lay on the ground and kowtowed loudly, and then picked up his knife and roared behind him, under the scorching sun, tens of thousands of elite infantry wearing golden armor and brilliant as the sun held scimitars and spears, roaring out of the battalion.

Sitting on the head of his golden elephant, A Luo Shun couldn't help but squint his eyes, this Chaori King is really willing.

Like his Northern Tianzhu, the most elite troops of the Shalouqi Kingdom are also the royal court forbidden army, which are composed of the closest children of the Shalouqi King for hundreds of years, wearing the finest goldfish scale armor, holding the sharpest and strongest Damascus high-grade scimitars, spears, almost every household has territory and serfs, and is the most powerful infantry in the entire Chalouqi Kingdom.

However, in the last Northern War, Luo Shun's cronies were in a state of spectator from beginning to end, and this time Sha Lou and his people were used anyway, anyway, it was not his own, he stretched his head on the lotus golden throne, and A Luo Shun watched with interest.

It is worthy of being the most elite army in Southern Tianzhu, more than three hundred steps away, the vanguard of the royal court guards in the frenzy has stretched the Tianzhu bow and threw it far away, and the bed crossbowman who planned to wait for the Tianzhu people to run close and shoot before shooting was suddenly shot down by the dense rain of arrows More than 20 numbers, in the panic, the Tang army also smashed the trigger regardless of it, and the five arrow slots had already been tense, and the two-meter-long field digging arrows made a scalp-numbing whistling sound, and Weng's shot out.

The highest firing range of the bed crossbow can reach 1,500 steps, and within 300 steps is even more arrows and arrows, even the most elite Uzi steel cast armor leaves can not resist, and the next to it is not a pair of piercing, but you can't find the results of just shooting Lou Lou's cavalry, and the royal court forbidden army that ran very loosely only fell more than 100 people, compared to 10,000 troops.

In the shouting, more more one-meter-long Tianzhu heavy arrows shot over, under the dense rain of arrows, the bed crossbowmen at the front of the trench could no longer support it, and they discarded the bed crossbows and retreated back, losing the opportunity, the Tang crossbowmen also looked quite embarrassed, the sword and shield hand covered the shield wall with a round shield, shrunk in the gap, and the Tang army crossbowmen could occasionally return a few arrows with a rain of crackling arrows.

"Hey, Xiao Sheng is a little anxious."

Watching the battle from behind, looking at the unfavorable situation of the Tang Army and the several towering wooden buildings being built in the rear, Li Jie couldn't help but shake his head.

"Your Highness, General Sheng Du is young after all, do you need the last general to support?" On the side, the black-toothed Changzhi, who had been promoted to the general of the left leading army guard and the deputy head of the Fujian King Tielin, inquired and suggested, but Li Jie suddenly smiled and shook his head.

"No, Xiao Sheng can do it himself."

On the battlefield, without pity, they stepped on the cavalry of the Lou Qi who had just filled in the pit and did not die, and one by one the royal court forbidden troops rushed to the opposite side of the trench, and immediately, they were also pitted, and the second trench of more than four meters had no room to play but could not jump at all, and in the midst of the screams, the royal court guards at the front were squeezed into the pit one after another, and three or four hundred people were filled in the blink of an eye.

The long lance hand behind the shield wall finally had a chance to show it once, roaring and rushing out of the shield wall to protect, or stabbing at the royal court forbidden army under the pit, or fiercely assassinating the royal court forbidden army who rushed up on their comrades, there were surprisingly few dodge positions in the small space, and for a while, the blood splashed on the point where the two armies overlapped became the main theme.

"Kill the thief, kill the thief!" In the chaotic crowd, a young general dressed in bright light armor was particularly eye-catching, leading the sword and shield hand to defend at the forefront, the long sword in his hand was like a gloomy poisonous snake, every time he poked out his fangs, he would definitely take away a human life, near the pit, the Tang army crossbowman who had already prepared was also to put away the bow and arrow and plan to do close combat The royal court guards detained the crossbow machine, and the damage brought by the close-range shooting was really terrifying.

For a while, the trench Tianzhu screamed and scolded angrily, and now he also understands Tianzhu slightly, listening to the voice of greeting his ancestors, Li Jie, who was watching the battle behind, couldn't help but smile coldly.

"Not convinced? It's you who pits! ”。
