Chapter 1055: Chang'an is in sight

"Go home! Go home! Countless Datang soldiers burst into tears and shouted in unison, their long-lost hometown is ahead, now don't say that the Tubo army is only stopping in front, even if it is a ghost or god, these Datang soldiers will also kill them with a horizontal knife in their hands, and absolutely no one can stop their desire to go home.

"Chang'an! Changan! "And the Pakhana, the Shatuo Turks, the Uighurs, and those miscellaneous nonsense shout the name of Chang'an, Chang'an is also the place they dream of, and being able to see the great city of Chang'an for themselves is also an extremely desirable scene for them, for which they are also willing to fight bloodily!

"So what are you waiting for? Home is just ahead! Chang'an is ahead! As long as we defeat these Tibetans, we can go home and see the great city of Chang'an! Shen Long pulled out his horizontal knife and pointed directly at the military formation of the Tubo people.

At the beginning of the Great Feichuan War, Xue Rengui only had 50,000 Tang troops under his command, while the Tubo people had 400,000 troops, even so Xue Rengui and the Tang army under him had never been afraid, and now Shen Long has the same number of soldiers, and the Tubo people only have 200,000 troops, so what are they afraid of? Just go straight to it!

"Trebuchet! Trebuchet! Ready to launch! Yun Erlang personally passed Shen Long's order to the rear formation, and there were trebuchets erected high in the rear of the army, but those trebuchets were not stone bullets, but packages wrapped in silk one by one, and a famous Tang soldier stood next to the trebuchet with a torch.

As soon as they heard Yun Erlang's order, they immediately lit the fuse on the powder bag with the torch in their hands, and the fuse emitted sparks and burned towards the powder bag, and the trebuchet hand in front immediately fired the powder bag.

Suddenly, countless black dots flew towards the most dense place of the Tubo army, and then fell, making a huge explosion in the crowd, and the Tubo army suddenly wailed, and the stumps and broken arms scattered in all directions.

This sudden blow made the Tibetan people tremble, they had never encountered such an attack, many people subconsciously knelt on the ground and began to pray to the gods and Buddhas, while those generals who woke up shouted loudly, telling them to hurry up and take up arms to fight with the Tang soldiers and horses.

But people can restrain them, but the horses will not listen to them, and the horses of the Tibetans were frightened by the sound of the huge explosion, and they ran wildly in all directions, leaving the knights on their backs, and then countless horses stepped on, trampling these unfortunate knights into flesh, and just as unlucky as them were the infantry who stood in the way of the horses.

These infantry didn't think about why their horses suddenly went crazy, and even many of them were lying on the ground praying to the gods and Buddhas at this time, and when they heard the sound of horses' hooves, it was too late, and their heads exploded like watermelons under the trampling of horses' hooves, and blood was splashed everywhere.

In fact, the explosion of the gunpowder pack did not bring much damage to the Tibetans, and the number of people killed directly was nothing compared to the number of 200,000 troops, but the chaos after the explosion caused them several times as many casualties.

What's more, the military array of the Tubo people has been in huge chaos because of this, and at this time, there are 50,000 Tang coalition troops eyeing them in front of them.

Shen Long had already distributed to them the flannel cloth that blocked the ears of the war horses, plus these soldiers had seen a huge explosion outside Suzhou City before, and their psychological endurance was much stronger than that of the Tubo people, so after the explosion, the formation of the Tang Coalition Army did not panic, and the soldiers cheered.

"All the troops are attacking!" Shen Long rushed to the front again, and went straight to the military formation of the Tubo people with 12,000 Han navy, and later, Prince Bahanna, Kang Guangde, Gu Lulu and others also reacted and also rushed towards the Tubo people.

The generals of the Tubo people are still trying their best to restore the order of the army, wanting them to rearrange their military formations and fight with the Tang coalition army, but now the frightened war horses on the battlefield are running around, and the soldiers are either fleeing or kneeling to pray, which can still be organized, and the consequences can be imagined when encountering enemy raids in a chaotic situation.

This battle lasted from sunrise to sunset, and the Tubo people were killed and injured countless times, and the Yellow River next to it was also red, and the corpses of countless Tubo people floated on the water.

Trisong Dezan mobilized almost all the troops near Hexi and Longyou to gather 200,000 troops and almost all of them were wiped out, they were either killed by the Tang army, or rushed into the Yellow River in a panic and drowned, or died in the trampling of their own war horse soldiers, and many people became prisoners of the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses.

The losses of the Tang coalition army are minimal, this is not a frontal battle, most of the time, they are just chasing the enemy at the tail, in front of them are the soldiers fleeing in disarray, they just need to catch up, with the speed of the war horse sprinting the horizontal knife on the back of the enemy's neck lightly.

"Hahahaha! Since this war, Tubo has no soldiers to fight in Hexi and Longyou, and there is no need to worry about the Tubo people being able to threaten Hexi and Longyou for at least ten years! Guo Xin laughed.

A few days later, the red color in the Yellow River gradually disappeared, and it didn't take much effort for the Tang coalition army to defeat the Tubo army, and it took a lot of effort to clean up the battlefield.

This time, the servant army that followed the Tang Dynasty made a fortune, and the weapons, armor and belongings they carried with them became their trophies, and many of them also planned to bring back the Tibetan captives they captured as slaves; These days, they all had heartfelt smiles on their faces, and they thanked Shen Long again and again after seeing him.

After resting for a while, the army continued to march eastward, and when they arrived in Weizhou, Shen Long and they found that Weizhou had long become an empty city, either the defenders here were also buried outside Lanzhou City, or they were so frightened that they fled quickly, think about it, the 200,000 troops are kneeling, what is the use of these people?

In this way, Guo Xin and Shen Long led this army into the territory of the Tang Dynasty smoothly, and the Tang Dynasty, which had already learned the news, immediately sent Guo Hua, the acting prince of the country, to Fengxiang Mansion to meet them.

The two cousins who had not seen each other for a long time reunited, Guo Hua and Guo Xin both burst into tears, and Guo Yu came with Guo Hua, as well as many relatives of the guards of the palace, and this welcome turned out to be a day for family reunion.

Guo Hui brought the court's praise to them, and now the Tang Dynasty really needs such an inspiring victory; After reciting the decree, the army continued to advance.

After a few days, Chang'an City finally appeared in front.
