Chapter 0385 - Speculation

As soon as Li Ang returned to Da Momen City, a scout galloped back to report urgently: "Report, Li Changshi, two thousand Tibetan cavalry are galloping towards the camel bridge......

Li Ang hurriedly asked, "How far is the enemy from here?" ”

"Back to Li Changshi, there are still thirty miles!"

The enemy is coming with cavalry, and the Tang Army's reconnaissance cavalry can return at a distance of thirty miles, which is already very good.

Li Guangbi said: "Li Changshi, it is obvious that the enemy is here to seize the camel bridge, and he must immediately send more troops and horses to cross the river to defend." ”

Li Ang nodded and said to Li Guangbi: "General Li, as the saying goes, those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come, so General Li will lead people across the river, guard the camel bridge first, and wait for the men and horses of the Ma army to arrive from Langzhou, and then make plans." Well, leave twenty men for me, and the rest of the guards will cross the river with you." ”

Due to the danger of the Yellow River, Da Momen City was only stationed with 150 men and horses before. And Li Ang came out to inspect this time, in order to be fast, he only brought two hundred elite horsemen with him, led by Wu Xuan.

The enemy came with 2,000 men at once, and the fortifications on the north bank of the river were relatively rudimentary, so Leon had to send his own soldiers across the river.

Li Guangbi was about to go out, when Li Ang suddenly shouted again: "General Li, wait, since the enemy is coming to the Camel Bridge, he will probably not leave Shudun City alone, and immediately send someone to inform Li Sheng to prepare for battle." In addition, let him adapt to the situation, if the attack on Shudun City is not strong, let him lead a thousand cavalry to break through Shudun City, and flank the 2,000 enemy troops who are attacking the camel bridge from behind. ”

"The last general obeys!" Li Guangbi didn't say much, and hurriedly led people across the river.

Li Mi looked at Li Guangbi's back and thought thoughtfully. Li Ang couldn't help but ask, "Secret, is there any problem?" ”

Only then did Li Mi whisper to Li Ang: "Isn't Li Changshi afraid that Dazaru Gong is deliberately leading out the people of Shudun City?" ”

Li Ang frowned and said, "Yu, why didn't you remind me just now?" ”

"From Li Guangbi's momentary hesitation just now, I believe he has the same concerns, but he didn't remind Li Changshi that if it was Wang Zhongsi who gave the order just now, I think Li Guangbi would definitely remind Wang Zhongsi. In that case, how can I question Li Changshi's decision in front of him? ”

"Mi, do you think this is really Dazarugon's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain?"

"I just have this concern, this is not necessarily Dazhagon's real purpose, of course, this is at least one of his options."

Li Ang really didn't think of this before, it seems that it is really a wise man's thousand thoughts, and there must be a mistake! Li Ang was preparing to send another person to Shudun City. But after thinking about it deeply, he paused again.

"Hey, if our meticulous work is not mistaken, Dazarugon has gathered at least 70,000 troops in Moliyi this time. Dazaru Gong is so excited, do you think his goal will be limited to Li Sheng's 2,000 men and Shudun City? ”

Li Yu said with a smile: "Of course, Dazarugong's appetite will not be so small, but whether Dazarugong's goal is the land of the Yellow River Jiuqu or something else, he must first take Shudun City, otherwise it will be difficult for his tens of thousands of troops to cross the river with peace of mind, and to quickly take Shudun City, it is a good choice to divert the tiger from the mountain." ”

Shudun City is only twenty miles away from the Camel Bridge, not to mention that the cavalry is coming in an instant, it is the infantry, and it will not take long to arrive, if the tens of thousands of troops of Dazarugon want to cross the river to attack the land of the Yellow River Jiuqu, it is indeed impossible to keep Shudun City, it is tantamount to taking off his pants and giving the chrysanthemum dew to Li Sheng, and once the army enters the Yellow River Jiuqu, if the battle situation is unfavorable, Dazha Lugong does not even have a way to retreat, which is a very dangerous thing.

"Well, I always feel like something is wrong."

"The problem is that Li Changshi has already determined that Dazarugong's goal is not limited to Shudun City." At this time, Li Mi still had a calm posture, not surprised, and gave people the feeling that there was nothing in the world that could move him anymore.

After he reminded him again, the chaos entangled in Li Ang's mind suddenly broke through, and he suddenly said brightly: "Not bad! Not bad! If I were Dazarugon and gathered so many soldiers and horses, I would not be willing to retake only one Shudun City. However, once Shudun City is captured, there is no need for us to keep the camel bridge, as long as we cut off the camel bridge, he will come with an army of 700,000, and he can only sigh. Therefore, the first thing Dazarukon had to do was not to take Shudun City, but to seize the Camel Bridge. Of course, this is only the last resort, after all, the camel bridge can only pass two camels. It is not easy to capture this bridge completely, it seems that Dagong Lugong has another plan! ”

Li Yu nodded and added: "If you talk about the best policy, it is nothing more than to grasp the heart of our army that cannot see death and not be saved, and use Shudun City as bait, and constantly attract our army to cross the river to rescue Shudun City, so that the 70,000 troops of Dazarugong can wait for work, and after our army has enough soldiers and horses to cross the river, and then lock the camel bridge with heavy troops, our army's back road will be cut off, and the army's heart will be in chaos. ”

Li Ang let out a long breath, Dazaru Gong's move this time was full of confusing techniques, if he was not careful, it was easy to be confused by him, and he couldn't see what his true purpose was.

Fortunately, there is Li Mi, a monster that occurs once in a thousand years, otherwise although Li Ang feels that something is wrong, it will be difficult to clear up the matter so quickly. On the battlefield, time is of the essence, and whether or not we can find out the enemy's intentions in time often determines the outcome of the entire war.

"Okay, Mi, now that you have figured out Dazarugon's intentions, how to trap him, let's talk about it."

"The next strategy is to gather troops and horses and fight hard with Dazarugong."

"Well, time is precious." Li Ang glanced at Li Mi dissatisfied, and his gaze was like a knife.

Li Mi was still unconscious, and still said in an unhurried tone: "The middle strategy is to withdraw Li Sheng's 2,000 men and horses immediately, destroy Shudun City with a fire, and let Dazaru Gong mobilize the people in vain, but nothing will be gained."

"Go on!" Obviously, Leon was still unhappy with this. Even Tinker Bell, who was lying at his feet, sensed Leon's displeasure and roared fiercely.

"The best strategy is ......"

As soon as Li Mi mentioned the best strategy, there was a thunderous sound of war drums outside, and the ear drums of the shaking head were numb, and Li Mi had to stop talking.

The drums were inexhaustible, getting tighter and tighter, and then there was a thunderous sound of horses' hooves, and Tinker Bell swooped out, and Wu Xuan rushed in from outside the door to report: "Lang Jun, the enemy army is coming!" ”

Nonsense! It's all like this, can Leon not know that the enemy army has arrived?

On the north bank of the Camel Bridge, on the slopes on both sides of the bridgehead, the Tang flag fluttered, and Li Guangbi divided more than 300 Tang troops into two and blocked the bridgehead according to the hillside. The enemy forces were menacing, and without stopping for a moment, immediately launched an attack on the slopes on both sides at once, amid the sound of whining horns.

The horse's hooves are frenzied, the people and horses are roaring, in the roar of the Tubo people, a wave of arrow rain rises in the air in an instant, covering the sky like dark clouds, looking at the past through the river surface of twenty or thirty meters, but seeing the arrow rain rising continuously, the Tubo people instigated the war horses, followed by the arrow rain, and rushed up to the slopes on both sides of the mountain surgingly.

On the hillside, the fortifications that the Tang army hastily built were very rudimentary, and the number was only two or three hundred, and in the face of ten times the enemy, the rain of arrows in the counterattack seemed much weaker.

Li Guangbi has the style of a famous general, in this case, the command is determined, do not panic, and so the Tibetan soldiers and horses rushed to the half-slope, he only gave an order, the Tang army on the hillside immediately pushed down a piece of rolling stones, the rolling stones went down, the speed is getting faster and faster, the Tubo people who rushed up the hillside were shocked, they couldn't avoid it, the war horse neighed, was hit by the rolling stones, the horse's feet were broken, and they fell to the ground suddenly, some were hit by the rolling stones, and were directly knocked upside down, for a while, the bloody wind and rain, the miserable howl, and the Tubo lord general Zha Sang who saw the slope down the slope was about to split.

However, this is not over, immediately after, Tang Jun at the same time pushed a large fireball with a diameter of five feet, these large fireballs are made of thatch, because they are tied tightly, after ignition, thick smoke billows, after hundreds of fireballs roll down, the fire under the mountain rolls over, thick smoke is filled, and it is difficult for people to breathe. Many of the Tibetan horses' horses were frightened by this, and they rushed around uncontrollably, causing a great chaos.

Zasang came with two thousand horsemen, and immediately launched a fierce attack, relying on the strength of his own men, without much temptation. He never dreamed that he would be hit on the head as soon as he reached the ground, and he was immediately stunned.

At this time, the smoke was thick, his vision was blurred, and he could not see the surrounding situation clearly, coupled with the frightened war horses colliding everywhere, so that his two thousand men became very panicked, Zasang saw this situation, he was shocked and angry, and he was so anxious that he yelled hysterically: "Withdraw!" Evacuate! Evacuate! ”

On the hillside, the war drums of the Tang army were mixed with bursts of shouting and killing, all the strong crossbows fired in unison, and one after another crossbow arrows whistled down, puffing through the bodies of the Tibetan soldiers, and some even passed through the body, bringing out a puff of blood.

In this case, there is no need for Zhasang to shout, and the two thousand Tibetan soldiers will also retreat in fear, to be precise, they should be called to flee.

The drums of the Tang army changed, and the guards brought by Li Ang were all elite cavalry from Longyou, and at this time, under the urging of the drums of war, they swooped down from the hillside like a fly, and killed the fleeing Tubo people with their tails.

Li Guangbi personally charged ahead, he carried a long horse lance, after chasing the Tubo people, the roar of anger, swept away, followed by the Tang army he rushed down, shouting into a formation, the sword light was like lightning, and he slashed and killed as much as he wanted.

None of the Tubo people who were fleeing wanted to turn back to stop Li Guangbi and them, and everyone had only one thought, escape! Hurry up and escape!

Li Ang and Li Mi stood on the north wall of Da Momen City, and couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this, wouldn't they, the Tubo people were so vulnerable? It's not going to be a sham, is it?
