Chapter 120: The Bloody Battle in the Wasteland (Part II)
It has been a hundred years since Tubo destroyed Zhangxiong, and Xiangxiong is a vassal of Tubo, and the power of a hundred years can be eliminated in a while.
The Tibetan prince died on the territory of the Dama tribe, and the fate of the Dama tribe was already sealed. The people of the Dome Dongdai and the Snow Eagle Dongdai watched this bloody scene, and they all fell into silence.
The meadow was completely red with blood, and the ground was covered with corpses. The air was filled with a thick smell of blood, and the smell was disgusting.
The patrolling Tang Army scouts stood on a high slope not far away, watching the bloody massacre below. A scout had already rushed back to the camp and reported the matter here to Ma Lu.
Ma Lu listened, and his heart was really ruthless.
On top of the original history, this guy was a big scourge. I met here this time, where can I allow him to live again.
Cleaning the nearest three east dai to Liwei from Baishitan was Ma Lan's plan before he marched, but he didn't expect this matter to be preempted by Dazaru Gong.
But it's okay like this, it's too much of a sin, Tang Jun can not get his hands on it or not.
In the rear of the Tibetan cavalry, the crying and shouting slowly calmed down, and the Tubo people once again set up a formation in front of the Tang army, and the women and children of the Dama tribe had already been killed by Dazarugong.
Yang Zhen led more than 100 scouts under his command to change their horses, and once again dispersed into small teams to approach the Tubo army.
This is Ma Luan's way of coping, although it is a little boring, but it is very practical. This battle is to give full play to the power of the Yuanrong crossbow, and it is to bully the Tubo people for the lack of range of the horn bow.
If the Tibetan army wants to fight a protracted war and confront the new army of Anxi, it must have the capital to confront. This is not a level of army at all, and Ma Lu does not think that these Tibetans can fight with his own army of 5,000, even though the main commander of the other party is the famous Dazarugong in history.
If there are too many people to harass, it is easy to be surrounded when returning, and more than 100 scouts are all equipped with Yuanrong crossbows, and it is enough to harass the Tubo people.
Originally, the Tang army fought against the Tubo people on the plateau, and the biggest headache was the heavy leather armor of the Tubo people. However, under the cast steel crossbow arrows used by the Yuan Rong crossbow, the leather armor of the Tubo people could simply ignore it.
This time, the Tibetans did not send out any more rangers. Yang foresaw an opportunity, and simply rushed directly to the front of the Tubo people's formation, more than a hundred Yuan Rong crossbows were fired at the same time, and a rain of arrows poured directly under the banner of the Tubo people.
This is not the Dapeng banner of the Zhangxiong people, but the royal banner of the Luo people. Dazaru Gong was under the banner, and he didn't expect that the Tang army's hand-held crossbow arrows would have such a long range, so he hid under the belly of the war horse in a hurry to escape. But the horse was shot into a sieve, and the wailing crushed him underneath.
Before Dazarugon could get up, the second wave of arrows from Yang Yu had already poured down, and twenty or thirty more cavalry had fallen. Dazarugon was hit by an arrow in the palm of his hand, and he howled loudly in pain. The royal banner of the Logos was shot down and fell in a pool of blood.
The cavalry were so angry that they were instantly angry, and although they didn't give an order, they all immediately urged their horses to rush out, surrounding Yang Yu and the others like wolves.
After all, it was an elite cavalry, although it was angry, it was not busy, and while charging, it gradually formed an arc, surrounding more than 100 people in Yang Pre.
Yang Yu looked at the cavalry rushing over, and his expression was extremely flat. As the leader of the Tang Army's scouts, after the personal training of the general, he has long been able to calmly deal with all situations.
More than 100 scouts turned their horses and galloped back, still turning around and killing again and again, shooting some cavalry off their horses one by one.
……
Dazarugon pulled out the steel arrow in his hand, and he couldn't help but howl in pain. The Tang people are too vicious, such a sharp arrow, there are even barbs!
Finding that there was no longer a cronie around, all the cavalry had rushed forward in a chaotic manner, and all the cavalry around them were the cavalry of the Dome Dongdai and the Snow Eagle Dongdai, Dazarugong's face couldn't help but change.
He is known for his ruthlessness in Tibet, but ruthlessness is based on strength. He had always been surrounded by armies, and it was the first time he had been alone like this.
Looking at these Zhangxiong cavalry, Dazarughan suddenly felt that the gaze of every Xiangxiong was ill-intentioned, and he couldn't help but stir his throat.
He himself was also a fierce general, but at this time, there was a big hole in the palm of his right hand, and he couldn't even hold a weapon. Looking at the thousands of subordinates on the meadow who were roaring and rushing towards the Tang Army's scouts, Dazarugon secretly cursed stupidity.
With a tense face, he walked up to the nearest knight of the Snow Eagle Dongdai, stretched out his left hand and pushed the knight down, Dazarugon snorted coldly, and reluctantly jumped on the war horse.
He can only feel safe if he rushes to his subordinates. These guys are basically sending them to death when they go after Tang Jun now, and thousands of subordinates are the capital of his life, and they must be caught up to stop it.
Dazarugon was about to urge the war horse when suddenly the sound of horses' hooves sounded behind him. Looking back, a knight of the Snow Eagle Dongdai rushed up with a heavy mace in his hand, and with a fierce light in his eyes, he swung the mace and smashed it!
Dazarugon instinctively went to block, only to realize that his right hand was not weapon at all, and the heavy mace fell heavily on his body, and Dazarugon fell off his horse with a scream.
The knight of the Snow Eagle Dongdai was quite athletic, and quickly jumped off the horse, with a short knife in his hand, pulled Dazarugon's hair back, and neatly cut off Dazarugon's head.
In a hurry, the knights of the Snow Eagle Dongdai were stunned in place, and they did not react until Dazarugon's head was cut off, and several knights rode out and surrounded the knight, and the weapons in their hands were all pointed at the knight.
The knight's face turned red, and he raised his head and shouted, "Lao Tzu is a Tang man!" If you want to live, get out of the way! ”
"Gongga, you have been in the old man's tribe all these years, and the old man has treated you well, why do you want to harm the old man like this?" The head of the Snow Eagle Dongdai, a gray-haired knight looked at the knight holding the head and shouted angrily.
The man named Gongga shouted loudly: "Patriarch, our Tang army has come to the plateau. They're amazing, you can see it! The Logos can't win at all, and we all have to die with the Logos! The Dama tribe is an example, my wife and children are here, I can't watch them die, I'm going to go and ask them for a way to live! ”
The white-haired knight looked at the cavalry that was approaching the Tang army in the distance, and his face was extremely gloomy.
From among the women and children of the Snow Eagle tribe in the rear, a red-faced woman staggered over, hugged the knight's leg and cried loudly. Two children behind the woman also ran up and cried loudly.
"Patriarch, let me go over and beg my people, beg them to give everyone a chance to live! You have also seen the power of Master Wang, and this battle can't be fought at all. The knight roared with red eyes, holding the head of the man in one hand and rubbing the head of the most childish child with the other.
The gray-haired knight hesitated for a moment, then galloped back to his original position without saying a word. The other knights moved out of the way, and watched as Gongga jumped onto his horse with Dazarugon's head in his hand.
The Tibetan woman hugged Gongga's leg and cried loudly, Gongga rushed out with a wave of the horsewhip, the Tibetan woman staggered to the ground, and the two children cried even more.
Gongga urged his war horse to rush directly to the nearby high slope, where several Tang army scouts with hard crossbows stood there. Seeing a Tibetan rush over, the scouts raised their crossbows at the same time.
Gong Gafu lowered his body and roared loudly in the official dialect of Anxi accent: "Feng Dazhong, a soldier of Liuzhong County, Xizhou Prefecture, has the head of an enemy chief in his hand, take me to the general quickly!" ”
When the scouts heard this, their faces showed a strange look. The Xizhou accent can't be wrong, this turned out to be an Anxi pawn who lives in Qiangtang.
Gongga galloped up the high slope and shook the head in his hand. Several Tang army scouts did not dare to slack off, and immediately led him along the river to the Tang army camp.
……
Dazarugon was dead, but the charging soldiers did not know it. More than 100 people in Yang Pre kept firing arrows, which made them extremely angry. One by one, the knights kept falling, but the enemy was still running leisurely.
No matter how powerful an individual's martial arts are, there is no solution to the perverted weapon like the Yuan Rong crossbow. It is comparable to the range of the volcanic crossbow, and the sharp arrows cast from pure steel can also be fired continuously without interruption. No matter how thick the leather armor is, it has no defenses against such crossbow arrows.
Yang Yu led the scouts to shoot the remaining crossbow arrows and did not love to fight, and immediately accelerated towards the camp with all his strength. At the same time, the camp gate of the Anxi army was completely opened, and under the care of Han Wu's 1,000 cavalry outside the barracks, the infantry and cavalry rushed out, and all the Yuan Rong crossbowmen and yaks driving eight-bull crossbows walked out of the barracks and quickly lined up.
Dazarugon is also a famous general, Ma Lu didn't understand why Dazarugon would choose like this, and stupidly rushed over to fight a decisive battle with the Tang Army. However, in view of the disasters that this guy has brought to the people of the Han family in history, Ma Lan is not ready to delay any longer, and would rather pay a certain price than keep this guy here.
The infantry quickly moved forward with their crossbows, and the two thousand cavalry cruised on both wings, followed by Yuanrong crossbowmen and yaks, quickly approaching the attacking Tubo elite cavalry.
Soon the Tubo people entered the range of the Eight Bull Crossbows, but Ma Lu did not make any movement, and his face was tense and urged Qinghai Cheng to continue to move forward.
The two armies were getting closer and closer, and Yang pre-emptive more than 100 people were sandwiched in the middle, and Tian Mingyuan of the Chinese army suddenly waved the Ling Qi, and Yang foresaw that the Ling Qi immediately galloped to both sides quickly with all the knights.
"It's now!" Ma Ling said coldly.
"Boom, boom!"
On the back of the yak, all the warriors smashed down the crossbow of the eight oxes, and more than 300 huge arrows roared out, falling like a torrential rain in the army of the Tubo people. The Tibetan army was empty in an instant, and five or six hundred people were nailed to the ground by huge arrows.
The next moment, all the infantry and cavalry fired their crossbows at the same time, and the sky suddenly darkened. The steel arrows fell like raindrops among the Tubo people, and the formation of the Tubo people instantly became sparse, and more than 4,000 crossbow arrows were intensively attacked, and more than 1,000 cavalry fell off their horses.
The rest of the elite soldiers roared wildly, and pounced on them fearlessly, quickly closing their formations while charging, and they were well-trained.
However, this is exactly what Ma Lan wants.
Tian Mingyuan's command flag waved down again, the infantry quickly moved out of the way, and more than 600 Yuan Rong crossbowmen urged their horses forward at the same time, and then directly pressed the machine bracket.
This time, they used the pattern of ten arrows at a time. (To be continued.) )
