Chapter 705: Burning Grain
North of Qinzhou City, nameless valley.
On an unknown hidden path, Luo Zhang stood on his horse, staring coldly ahead, behind him was a silent army, everyone pressed their scimitars, guarding the surroundings, a solemn aura was permeated, only the war horses occasionally snorted, and soon quieted down.
"Gotta get it!"
A war horse roared over, and a person on the horseback shouted: "General, the brothers came forward disguised as hunters, and they have found out that it is indeed grain and grass, and there are 20,000 people guarding it." ”
"Great, I'll give you credit for going back!" Luo Zhang was overjoyed, and the horse lance in his hand was in his hand for a while, and he stepped forward.
The army followed behind, silently hurrying away.
Not long after, the army walked out of the hidden path, and an open valley appeared in front of it, and the horses began to pick up speed.
After turning a big bend, a large army appeared in front of him, the army was full of camp tents, it seemed that the army was stationed, but in fact, the tent was full of food, Luo Zhang didn't dare to confirm it after finding it, so he sent someone closer to check.
"Stop, who's who?" Employing people rushed up to drink.
Luo Zhang pointed forward with the horse lance in his hand and shouted: "The first division is in front, the second and third divisions are holding down the two wings, and the fourth division is responsible for igniting the fire, chiseling through the tactics, and killing-"
"Kill!"
Countless people roared in unison, and the killing intent shook the sky.
In the run, the army quickly adjusted the formation, forming three phalanxes, and the three phalanxes formed an attack triangle, and the front phalanx took Luo Zhang as the arrow, and took out the scimitar and stuck it in the saddle, the body was lowered, and the reins were released to give the war horse greater freedom, and the horse speed was faster.
"Poof!"
Luo Zhang rushed up, the horse slashed, easily put down the two of them, the war horse knocked one person away, and continued to rush forward to kill, ignoring the other enemies on both sides.
The army followed, knocking two enemies into the air and slashing them, without exception.
Four divisions and nearly 30,000 cavalry charged intensively at the same time, how terrifying the power was.
At this moment, the army was like a rolling torrent, crushing and submerging all the people in front, instantly breaking through the camp gate, and continuing to rush inside, the scimitar reflected the cold light in the sun.
The Turkic army was eating, it was inconvenient, it was taken by surprise, and quickly lost the food in his hand, picked up his weapon and turned over his horse to rush up to block it, but where did it stop?
The front army of the big camp was about to be chiseled through, the Chinese army reacted quickly, a cavalry rushed up, and the main general roared angrily: "Who dares to rush my big camp, looking for death!" ”
Luo Zhang rushed forward first, swished, stabbed out three shots in one breath, forcing the opponent to block and defend again and again, the horse lance suddenly changed, and a shot pierced the front leg of the war horse under the opponent's crotch, the war horse stabbed, the person stood up, let out a neigh, and the injured front leg was even more chaotic.
"Die!"
Luo Zhang was waiting for this moment, the horse lance was as fast as a poisonous snake attacking, instantly piercing the opponent's thigh, fighting hard, picking people off the horse, pulling out the horse lance and about to shoot again.
"Who are you and how did you find here? Don't fight yet. The other man rolled and yelled.
Luo Zhang keenly felt that something was wrong, the two armies were fighting, fighting to the death, where did the nonsense come from? Lerma stopped and asked, "What do you want to say?" ”
"You are a general of the imperial court at first glance, you have an agreement with my Turks that they are not allowed to fight each other, why are you attacking our army?" The other party asked rhetorically.
"Agreements? Where the agreement is, General Ben does not know. Luo Zhang asked, and suddenly realized in his heart, no wonder these people are so vigilant, no wonder they don't have much defense, and there are few scouts around, it turns out that they have a secret agreement with the imperial court, thinking that the imperial army will not attack.
"The agreement is naturally in the hands of the Son of Heaven and the Khan, how can you violate the agreement, and you are not afraid that the Turkic army will attack Chang'an again?" The other struggled to his feet and asked.
At this moment, Luo Zhang understood, but the killing intent in his heart was even colder.
"Die!"
The next moment, Luo Zhang struggled to make a move, and the horse lance drew a terrifying air current, instantly piercing the opponent's body, and then pulling it out, bringing out a large puddle of blood.
The other party didn't expect that Luo Zhang would dare to kill after the matter was clarified, and suddenly thought of something, covered the wound and asked, "You...... You are not a court...... Are you the Hanzhou Army? ”
"No, Lao Tzu is the imperial army, and the saint sent people to destroy your grain and grass." Luo Zhang deliberately shouted loudly so that the surrounding Turks would know.
It is impossible to kill so many people, as long as someone escapes and the news reaches the Turkic Khan, it can play a role in sowing discord, why not?
The fragile agreement is not bright enough, not strong enough, and a little spark can burn out.
Why don't you do what is beneficial to the Hanzhou Army? Luo Zhang's horse swept away, and after killing a few people who pounced on him, he shouted: "The court is mighty, the saints are mighty, kill them all!" ”
The soldiers didn't know why Luo Zhang did this, but they all shouted.
The cavalry rolled forward, and soon broke through the large camp of the Chinese army, and came to the place where the grain was hoarded, and the officers and men of the Fourth Division, who were specially responsible for burning grain, quickly dispersed, looked for fire sources everywhere, and lit fires everywhere.
The tents were all a few years old, and there was a thick layer of grease on them, which was usually waterproof, but it was transparent at all, and the fire quickly ignited and ignited the food in the tent.
Luo Zhang led the cavalry to continue to rush forward to kill, prepared to kill unprepared, plus there were still many troops, almost one-sided crushing, the killed Turks scattered and fled, and no one dared to stop them.
The more the fire was released, the more it burned, and soon a sea of fire was formed.
Luo Zhang led the cavalry to kill a thorough, turned around and looked, the fire was raging, rising into the sky, people could not get close, even if the Turks rescued it, there was no way, shouted: "Light cavalry, rush to kill!" ”
"Kill!"
One roar after another rang out.
The army rushed towards the Turks again, and the Turks who had been scattered could not stop them, and fled one after another.
……
In front of the coalition camp.
On Qinling and Khan's pre-war mobilization in front of the army, both of them knew that no one should think about it if they didn't kill the king of Han, and they were ready to give it a go, and all kinds of benefits and promises were thrown away by their generals.
Not long after, the two converged, and the Khan preemptively said: "Since it is a game of life, Ben Khan hopes that Tubo will not be soft halfway, the old rule, you attack the east gate, I attack the west gate, each time five thousand soldiers and horses are invested, wheel battles, people do not stop, who dares not to, will not die." ”
"That's how it should be!" On Qinling agreed.
The two of them looked at each other, nodded solemnly, and immediately looked at the city in front of them at the same time, and the murderous intent burst in their eyes.
"Let's get started!"
Almost at the same time, the two spoke.
"Dongdong, Dongdong!"
The war drums sounded, low and thick, like the ancient god of death beckoning, roaring filial piety.
"Woooooo
A long horn sounded.
"Kill!"
Almost at the same time, two large armies that had been prepared long ago rushed forward, carrying shields and carrying ladders, and pounced on the east and west gates respectively, each with about three thousand archers behind them.
The battle, start again.
As with the previous attacks, there was no counterattack in the city, and there was not even a human figure in sight, but the attacking troops were prepared this time and continued to charge.
The archers stopped, stretched their bows and arrows, aimed at the walls, and shot mercilessly if they spotted a figure.
The ladder was erected, and the besieging troops bit their weapons in their mouths, used their hands and feet together, and climbed up frantically.
When I climbed to the city wall, I didn't want to jump down like last time, but jumped to the shed one by one according to the instructions before the battle, and the shed could block the arrows and shelter the people below, and also block the sight of the people below, so I couldn't hit it.
However, Qin Huaidao had long expected that the prisoners who were released back would expose the defenses in the city, how could he be defenseless?
At this time, the war drums roared and deafened.
The defenders hiding under the shed quickly came out, some with large shields to block the feathered arrows that came up, some followed, hiding behind the big shields and slashing at the people who climbed up to prevent the enemy from continuing to climb, and more people shot arrows at the enemies on the shed, shooting crossbows, and some stabbing with spears.
The enemies on the shed were dumbfounded, and they were shot one after another, some of them even jumped down the city, and some of them jumped to the city wall, but they were stabbed with spears before they could get close.
In just a few moments, all the enemies who climbed up were killed.
The drums of war suddenly disappeared.
The soldiers who had blocked the enemy's climb quickly retracted into the shed and continued to let people up.
When there are enough people, the drums of war will sound again, giving a hint, and the soldiers will fight again.
So repeatedly, almost incomprehensible!
Outside the city, in front of the main camp of the coalition forces.
On Qinling and Khan were silent with cold faces, silently watching the soldiers rush up the city wall, they didn't know what the results of the battle were, whether it was right to do this, but they couldn't think of a better way, and they suddenly felt a little anxious in their hearts.
Seeing that the first batch all climbed up, and there was no splash, the two exchanged glances, nodded tacitly, and unwillingly sent the second group to continue the attack.
