Chapter 171: Battle (1)

Six days later, the scouts in front came to report that the 10,000 cavalry of the Hui Turks were slowly advancing towards the Horsehair Mountain, and they would arrive at noon at the latest. After Wei Hong learned about it, he immediately asked Cheng Chumo and Li Dejian to prepare the army and horses. After the full assembly of the heavy armor army, he immediately ordered to move to the city gate of Mamanshan Mountain to lay an ambush, waiting for the Hui Turks to get it.

Since this was the first confrontation with the Hui Turks after coming to Horsehair Mountain, Comrade Lao Li attached great importance to it, and the results achieved in this battle were related to the morale of the entire defenders of Horsehair Mountain. In order to protect the safety of Comrade Lao Li, Qin Shubao ordered 20 soldiers to hold huge shields to guard Comrade Li's side, so as to prevent stray arrows on the battlefield from hitting the city gate tower and accidentally injuring Comrade Li.

As soon as Comrade Lao Li sat down, Wei Hong immediately went up to the city gate building. Seeing that Comrade Lao Li, Qin Shubao and Li Jing had all arrived, Wei Hong hurriedly saluted the three of them.

"Wei Hongna, according to the report of the scouts in front, this time the Hui Turks sent 10,000 cavalry. With so many people, what are your odds of winning? ”

Comrade Lao Li looked at Wei Hong and asked softly.

Wei Hong dragged his head and thought for a while, and said conservatively: "According to the villain's understanding of the strength of the heavy armored army, the heavy armored army is ten percent sure of being invincible. But if you want to defeat these 10,000 cavalry, you are only sixty percent sure. ”

Hearing this, Comrade Lao Li nodded thoughtfully, and said with a little worry: "Is it only sixty percent?" Not optimistic......"

Qin Shubao next to him didn't speak, although he knew Wei Hong's ability, he was not optimistic about the heavy armor army from beginning to end. After all, on the battlefield, it is important to pay attention to the arrangement of troops and the superiority of numbers and equipment, although the equipment of the heavy armored army can be called the top, but the troops trained in a short time, when they face the experienced Hui cavalry on the battlefield, it is already a great luck to be able to guarantee that they are undefeated, and if they want to defeat the Hui Turks, I am afraid that it is a bit wishful thinking.

Li Jing coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Wei Hong, you are not far-fetched, if it doesn't work, let Hu Guogong send the main army." These 3,000 heavy armored troops cost you nearly 500,000, it can be said that every soldier is smashed out with money, if you lose the army, how can you not feel distressed? ”

Wei Hong knew that Li Jing was joking with himself. On the battlefield, the value of hardware is far less valuable than actual combat experience. Just when Wei Hong, Li Jing and the others were idle and talking, a herald rushed up to the city, knelt in front of Comrade Lao Li and reported loudly: "Qi Sheng, the cavalry of the Hui Turks is less than ten miles away from the city, please give an order to the enemy under the Holy Order!" ”

Although the Hui Turks came to make a show, it was just a feint. But if Horsehair Mountain has no precautions at all, it is inevitable that people will fake it and really attack Horsehair Mountain, and then they will not have to taste loss.

Comrade Lao Li slowly stood up, glanced into the distance, and then said: "Pass on my order, the heavy armored army is ready to resist the enemy." Hu Guogong sent the main army to move behind the city to suppress the formation, and if there was a sudden change, immediately reinforce the city gate! "Comrade Lao Li didn't put all his bets on Wei Hong after all.

Wei Hong can also understand Comrade Li's approach, after all, Horsehair Mountain is too important to have the slightest mistake.

After a while, I saw a black line gradually appear on the plain ahead, and then the deafening sound of horses' hooves began to be heard. As time passed, the slender black line became thicker and thicker, and finally the scene of thousands of galloping horses appeared in front of me. Seeing that the Hui Turks were coming, Wei Hong shouted at Cheng Chumo under the city gate with his throat in his voice: "The Hui Turks are coming, prepare!" ”

With Wei Hong's order, I only heard a 'creaking' sound of iron armor rubbing under the city gate building, a stiff and ruthless sound, which made people's hearts go straight to the hair. Just by listening to this voice, you can feel the monstrous momentum of the heavy armor army, and the self-belief in your heart has increased a few points.

In the blink of an eye, the Hui Turkic cavalry rushed to the front of the formation and slowly rode out of the cavalry camp. On horseback sat a handsome middle-aged man, wearing leather armor and carrying a long knife in his hand. drove the horse to the city, stuck the long knife upside down on the ground, stretched out his hand and pointed at the Tang Dynasty soldiers in the city and scolded: "Listen to the children in the city, if you don't want to die, hurry up and open the door to surrender, otherwise when the city gate is breached, you will be slaughtered and slaughtered, and the chickens and dogs will not be left, and even the little mouse who does not open your eyes will fall to death!" ”

Hearing this naked scolding, everyone in the city was indignant, eager to open the city gate immediately and kill this arrogant Hui dog thief! Compared with the soldiers in the atmosphere, the old foxes seemed much calmer. Comrade Lao Li wiped his beard, smiled, and moved his gaze to Wei Hong, seeing that it meant that he wanted Wei Hong to respond to the Hui Turks in the past.

The meaning in Comrade Lao Li's eyes was obvious, and Wei Hong could not be allowed to shirk, so Wei Hong could only slowly walk to the edge of the city wall, look down at the Turkic generals under the city, and respond loudly: "What an arrogant Turkic barbarian!" Coming with a mere 10,000 cavalry, did you want to be a whetstone for my Tang heroes? ”

Before the battle, Wei Hong was still a big girl sitting in a sedan chair, the first time. I didn't know if the scolding was right or not, I glanced back at the three old foxes, and saw that they all looked at him with praise eyes, Wei Hong was relieved. raised his voice at the moment and continued: "Little thief, go back and bring all your remaining 50,000 soldiers and horses, otherwise don't talk about starting a war, you won't even have the qualifications to become a ghost under the sword of my Tang Dynasty!" ”

When the Turkic general heard this, he shouted angrily, pointed at Wei Hong and scolded: "What a bronze-toothed child!" Aren't all the people in your Datang just talking tricks? Don't talk nonsense, if you have the guts, open the city gate and fight with my Hui cavalry for 300 rounds! ”

Wei Hong laughed and said, "How can it take three hundred rounds to clean you up?" Three rounds is too much! Since you are waiting for the Turkic barbarians to send them to death, then grandpa will wronged himself and accept your ten thousand cheap lives! After that, Wei Hong turned his head to look at Comrade Lao Li, and when he saw Comrade Lao Li nodding, Wei Hong left from the wall, stood at the city ladder, and shouted at the heavily armored army hidden under the city gate with his throat: "Lao Tzu, these people have thrown a huge amount of money on you, and when the fight starts, show me my real skills!" Open the gates and defend against the enemy! ”

The city gate 'galala' slowly opened, and the three thousand heavy armored troops were like a flood of fierce beasts, constantly exhaling the white mist, rubbing their hands, eager to pour out of the city gate now and kill in all directions.

The Turkic generals thought that the defenders of Horsehair Mountain would definitely not meet the attack, but at this time, seeing that the city gate was opened, which was not the same as expected, the Turkic generals were inexplicably shaken in their hearts, and hurriedly jerked their horses' buttocks and rode back to their camp.
