It's not a delusion

That rumbling sound, getting louder and closer

The Don army is coming

Ziad sneered in the dark, he hadn't encountered this method of night attack, nor had he never used it, he was very familiar with it.

He had long judged that the only means for the Tang army to win was to attack at night, otherwise after the war started tomorrow, he would not need to really attack the city, as long as he surrounded the city and cut off its supplies, about ten days later, the Tang army would collapse without a fight

Through interrogation of prisoners of war, he knew that the current supply of the Tang army was at most to support another ten days, and even if there were materials in the rear, they could not be transported into the tax to build the city.

What he could think of, the young general of the Tang Army, should also be able to think of. That being the case, the only way to break this situation is to attack at night.

The rumbling sound was getting louder and louder, and at this time, even if the whole army did not warn, they would be awakened.

Ziade's brows couldn't help frowning: Ye Chang made such a big noise, could it be ...... And not for the night raid?

Just a commotion, a cover for a real night raid? Or is there some other calculation?

No matter what Ye Chang's calculations were, Ziad had a heart, relying on the advantages of his own army, he would definitely let the Tang army hit his head and bleed, repeating the mistakes of Talas City

He pondered in his heart, and the generals of the countries in the river were also whispering.

"Your Excellency the General has already sent someone to summon us, and sure enough, we have been prepared for a long time, this time, the Tang Army is only afraid that it will hit the iron plate, right?"

"That's no wonder, if Gao Xianzhi was leading the army, he would definitely not make such a mistake, but now it is Ye Chang...... What the hell is this, has anyone ever heard of this person? ”

"I've heard that the envoy who went to Chang'an City to pay tribute came back and told me that the son-in-law of Li Linfu, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, is named Ye Chang......"

"I also know that he is Li Linfu's son-in-law, isn't this nonsense?"

It is said that between Chang'an and Luoyang, he built a rutted track that lays wooden rails, so that the carriage departs from Chang'an in the morning, 800 miles away, and can run in two days and one night, which is pulling a large cart of goods."

"That's a capable one, I don't know how the battle is, the battle during the day, to be honest, Yuan En is too stupid, how can he use cavalry to attack the Tang Army's military formation, that kind of battle, can't show how much skill Ye Chang has"

These whispers also reached Ziade's ears, but Ziad turned a deaf ear, he vaguely felt that something was wrong at this time, Ye Chang made such a big noise, for fear that he didn't know what to do, it didn't look like a night attack, but as if he was trying to hide something......

What exactly is he hiding?

In the tax construction city, Gao Xianzhi finally made up his mind, he grabbed the hilt of the knife, and said in a low voice: "Li Siye is also unreliable, and now we can only rely on us...... He said that Ye Chang has won the hearts of the army, I don't believe it, I have taken the Anxi army for several years, and I don't dare to say that I have won the hearts of the army. ”

The cronies under them all nodded, they knew very well that if Ye Chang could kill Zheng Dequan, he would be able to kill them, if Gao Xianzhi couldn't turn the situation around, they would have no future in Anxi.

"The leaf thief said at this time that if he has an action tonight, it is nothing more than a night attack on the camp, Ziyad can defeat me, how can he not prepare to attack the camp? If Ziad takes the opportunity to counterattack and seize the city, then the cause of the Tang Dynasty in the west of the Green Ridge will be buried in the hands of this greedy junior" Gao Xianzhi said again: "Everyone, follow me to kill the Lu, whoever dares to stop me, you will be killed."

"First of all, since Li Juan's fight, that guy is just a small official in the army, looking at the warehouse is all his skills, but now he has come to control us," said a cronie.

"That's right, kill Li Xuan's sacrificial knife," another cronie said.

They have been detained by Li Juan in this big mansion for the past few days, although they are full and carefree, but they are scolded and scolded by this little official who was not eye-catching at all in the past, and they are all very resentful.

"Do it," Gao Xianzhi said.

He had heard it a long time ago, but there was no sound outside, so he chose to do it at this time. In his opinion, since Ye Chang had already left the city, the city's defense against him would inevitably be relaxed.

The door was cautiously pushed open, and a cronie came out with a knife and into the street outside. Everyone rushed out, but they only walked a few steps to the barracks, and then they all froze.

In the darkness, dozens of people armed with bows and crossbows were staring at them in the alley ahead.

The torch lit up immediately, and Li Juan shook the fan in his hand and came out with a smile: "There are so many mosquitoes outside, Doctor Gao, are you still interested in coming out to enjoy the coolness?" ”

Gao Xianzhi was mentally prepared for this, but it was obviously not Li Juan's ability to intercept it silently.

"Where is Ye Chang'er, let him come to see me." Gao Xianzhi said in a deep voice.

Ye Zhongcheng didn't expect it badly, and he knew that Dr. Lu Dao Gao would take the opportunity of his departure from the city to take risks. Ye Zhongcheng has an order, when he steps out of this courtyard, it is a dead word. Li Juan said slowly: "Shoot"

Gao Xianzhi was dumbfounded and shouted: "You dare"

Called Gui Shou, but couldn't stop the people around Li Juan at all, dozens of bows and crossbows flew together, arrows whizzed, and the screams were endless, waiting for the arrows to wait, when Gao Xianzhi looked back, all the cronies around him had fallen to the ground, and they couldn't die anymore.

He was the only one.

"You...... You...... What a guts."

"Doctor Gao, they were killed by you, Ye Zhongcheng's order, you don't know the way. Ye Zhongcheng was born and died outside, but you are thinking about seizing his military power behind this, who is more courageous and who is more shameless? Li Juan scolded angrily: "In Li's opinion, you are a birdman, just shoot them together, but Ye Zhongcheng wants to spare your life and say that it is useful...... What use is it for you to leave it, waste food ears"

"I'm fighting bloody battles in Talas, didn't he Ye Chang take away my military power in Anxi and Baishiling, he did it, I can't do it?" Gao Xianzhi is a general after all, but he is not afraid: "If you have the guts, kill me, otherwise I will take revenge."

"You fought bloodily? Ye Zhongcheng reminded you when you obviously sent your brothers to die in Anxi, the Grolu people are unreliable, and in order to remind you personally, he rushed from Chang'an to Qiuzi, and almost didn't sleep for 8,000 miles, so he rushed all the way, but how did you treat him? What's more, you left a big mess outside Talas, if it weren't for Ye Zhongcheng to clean up properly, I wouldn't know what it would have become at this time, and you still have the face to compare Ye Zhongcheng

Li Juan tore his face and scolded, but he had a bit of Li Bai's demeanor, and scolded Gao Xianzhi almost wanted to vomit blood, but Gao Xianzhi understood very well that his general trend was gone, and he could only ask for some verbal advantage.

"Fool, you are happy, rampant, do you think Ye Chang's night attack can succeed? Bah, he must be sent to his death this time, maybe his first result is already in the hands of Ziyad now, and by then, I will see how you villain will end."

"Whoever is stupid will know when the sky is clear, Ambassador Gao, don't think that Ye Zhongcheng is as stupid as you when he uses soldiers" Li Juan smiled again.

He was one of the few people who knew Ye Chang's overall arrangements, so he had strong confidence in this night attack

"What, what other tricks does he have?" Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but ask.

Ye Chang ate him to death, it stands to reason that he wouldn't be too stupid, he really went straight to launch a night attack, there must be other arrangements, so what is this arrangement?

As he asked, he suddenly heard a bang outside, and then the earth shook like thousands of horses galloping. Gao Xianzhi was so startled by this sound that he retreated again and again, tripped over the corpse of a cronie, hit the wall, and sat down.

"It's ......," his face changed drastically.

"It's—" In the ambush of the Great Cannibal, Ziad also changed color.

"What is this?" The 100,000 Great Eclipse and the allied forces of the nations, almost all of them looked around in panic.

"This is," Dou Xuena, who was hanging in his heart, suddenly raised his head.

"Water"

This is the sound of water, the sound of rushing and roaring water, which is familiar to everyone, but unfamiliar to everyone. This is a high mountain range, the Talas River is dozens of miles away, although there are some tributaries here, how can there be such a loud sound of water?

"Your Highness, go quickly, no matter what it is, let's go quickly, avoid it to a high place" Dou Zhongjie's cronies who arranged for Dou Xuena's side were quite calm and steady, and came up to pull him up.

"Yes, let's go" Dou Xuena also understood, and he didn't care about the things in the tent, so he flashed towards the high place with his guards.

The entire Great Food Coalition Army, the soldiers and the people, have a total of more than 100,000 people, of course, it is not possible to settle in one place. Their camp stretched for more than ten miles from outside the tax construction city to the exit of Baishiling. Ziad had already reacted at this time, shouting to drive the troops to move to a high place, but in order to deal with Ye Chang's sneak attack, the headquarters of the Great Food Army had now set up a military formation, wearing iron armor, gathered together, and listened to this order, eager to squeeze me and I squeeze you, pushing and even trampling during the process, it was almost uncontrollable.

Not only the Great Food Army, but also those allied forces of the Hezhong and Tocharian countries are also fighting for the road, they don't know where the water comes from, but they know that it is definitely not safe for the Dao to stay in the place where they are staying now. In such chaos, it is indispensable to use knives and guns against each other, and for a while, screams are everywhere, and cannibalism is everywhere.

At this time, Ziad was still taking chances, trying to restrain the troops. He was in a higher position, originally to facilitate his observation of the battlefield, but at this time, he saw that from the northeast, southeast, and northwest directions, three turbid currents were surging out like dragons, and they were sweeping along the valley, which was also their marching road and camping point.

Everything that stood in their way, whether it was a boulder or a tree, was swept away and swallowed up in an instant, and then completely disappeared.

Because of the night, of course, Ziyad couldn't see such a reality, and what he saw in his eyes was the army of three giant beasts rushing towards him from three directions. He only had time to shout "True God" before the giant beast broke through the military formation he was going to use against the Tang army and swept towards him.

"How is this possible, how is this possible? True God, even the demon Ibris, doesn't have the ability to summon such a terrible monster...... What's going on, true God, true God everywhere, have you forsaken me, am I so ......"

At this moment, even Ziad fell into a crazy situation.

Because the scene in front of him was completely unexpected, he had indeed experienced a hundred battles, fought many beautiful battles, and faced many cunning and wise enemies, but it was the first time that an enemy who used water on such a large scale had been encountered

From Talas to the city of Tax, most of them are snow-covered mountains, except for small plains on the edge of the city. Glaciers have carved out lakes in the mountains, large and small, and in the summer, these lakes are always filled with water from the melting of glacial snow.

In addition, a few days ago, on the night when Gao Xianzhi suffered a defeat in Talas, there was also a torrential rain, and enough water accumulated in these lakes. After Ye Chang confirmed this, he had already thought of the plan of flooding the Great Food Army.

Then it is necessary to lead the big cannibal to a relatively low and flat place, that is, the place where the valley road of Baishiling is out. So, Ye Chang first withdrew from Baishiling, retreated to the tax construction city, and asked Dou Zhongjie to pretend to surrender, and he had not demolished the camp he had given up - he was sure that if Ziad had a little vision, he would not give up the camp he had built.

There must also be enough water, in the past few days, the scouts sent by Ye Chang have been looking for ways to use the mountain lake almost day and night, while the craftsmen are making repair tools with all their might, and nearly 10,000 reliable Anxi soldiers and Tianwei Jian'er have been scattered and dispatched to carry out excavation projects.

Can't let the big cannibal find out his intentions, so Ye Chang left Li Siye outside the tax construction city, ostensibly, in order to use the city defense to test the military strength of the big food, but in fact, Ziyad's attention was focused on tax construction of the city, in this case, even if Ziad sent scouts, he would not pay attention to those mountain lakes that were difficult to reach.

Less than the last moment, do not pull out the hole cards. Therefore, Ye Chang organized this camouflaged sneak attack, and thousands of horsemen rushed towards the Great Food Army to cover the sound of the waves rushing between the mountains. By the time the Great Cannibals made out the true sound, they had little time to dodge

Flooding, fire attack, and ruthlessness of water and fire are really a strange thing for the big cannibals who are accustomed to fighting in the open area of the plains. Even if they had seen the so-called "Greek fire", it was only a weapon-level use of fire, not even a tactical level, let alone an almost campaign-level water attack like the current one.

At this time, Ziad had not realized that he had been tricked, and he had never thought that such a terrible force of nature would be released by human beings. When he realized that this natural catastrophe would bring destruction to his army of 100,000 men, he had been carried by some of his men to another higher hill

No one knew if the place where they were standing would be swallowed up by water.

Ziad came back to his senses, and when he looked around again, he almost wanted to cry without tears.

He originally had more than 100,000 troops, but now, he couldn't see anything, and everywhere he could see was water, because of the night, it was not for him to judge what was going on outside the water. Beside him, there were only a few hundred poor personal soldiers, and some generals and tribal leaders also fled here in a panic.

As for the supplies or anything, there was no such thing as anything, and even the torches for lighting in their hands were almost burned out.
