Chapter 549: Fighting Out Dignity
Soon these two people understood who was stupid, General Su's head must be fine, and when these crossbow arrows drew a graceful parabola from the sky and landed right in the middle of Xue Yantuo's army, they knew the true effect of these things.
In this era, there was no gunpowder, so they didn't know what this thing was at all, only that when every crossbow arrow fell, it was equivalent to the lives of more than a dozen cavalrymen to be explained here, Xue Yantuo's army had naturally seen this kind of thing, and when they had comrades killed or wounded, some of them had already started to run backwards.
The last time I encountered this kind of thing, their tens of thousands of troops were defeated, and now there are only 4,000 people, or they are divided into two parts, and the sky is densely packed, if those crossbow arrows all fall, will these thousands of people be enough to blow up?
"How is this possible? What's that? ”
Wadahan said with some surprise, the Xue Yantuo cavalry, who was still aggressive just now, was less than a thousand meters away from the Tang military camp, and the bombed people turned over on their backs, not to mention attacking now, they couldn't even organize a neat team, and there were dozens of cavalry who simply ran back.
These people are the most trustworthy people around Xue Yantuo Khan, and it is said that they are also the most capable troops of Xue Yantuo, but now Xue Yantuo is already a dead country, they are just a bunch of lost dogs, let alone let them attack now, it is not easy to have a neat queue to please them.
The army in the north was still able to fight, at least when the shells exploded, they rushed forward for a while, and the army in the south turned around directly when they heard the explosion, and even their generals took them to turn around.
This is something that Su Dingfang didn't expect, Su Dingfang originally thought that the artillery would kill and injure them in a wave, and the rest of the people would definitely rush to the front of the camp, so let all the soldiers abandon their horses, and then use a chain of crossbows to solve them, who knows that in the place where the artillery exploded, these people were already in a crush, and even if we got on the horse now, I am afraid we will not be able to catch up with them.
Hundreds of men from the north rushed to the front of the camp, and under the saturation of the crossbows, these people did not even report their names, and one by one they turned into honeycomb coal.
As for the army in the south, after being killed by the bombing, they immediately divided into several queues and scattered around, and the brothers in the sky were also anxious, but he was just a scout, he could only float above the barracks, and there was no way to put wings on himself, so he could only watch these people leave.
"I really didn't expect Xue Yantuo's army to be so useless, if I knew that this was the case, I would have to leave two thousand cavalry to pursue."
In only one hour, Xue Yantuo's four thousand troops were defeated, and there were still many corpses of black-clothed people around, and the rest of the people fled in all directions, even if you want to pursue, I'm afraid it's not so easy, not to mention that we don't know much about the surroundings, in case we fall into the trap of the enemy, it will only increase the number of casualties.
"It's good to have the current victory, our own strength is not very strong, don't think about wrapping up others, we are a farming people compared to these nomads, we are indeed inferior to others in the immediate battle, you have to be convinced."
Lord Zhao came out of the tent happily, he was indeed a little nervous just now, after all, he was only a civilian official, he had never seen the emergency situation on the battlefield, and now he can see it clearly, the enemy is menacing, but it is not our opponent at all, and the other party was solved in a few words, and our general was left here to be annoyed.
"If your old man says that, I'm really not convinced, to tell the truth, if it weren't for the safety of you, I would immediately rush up with people, I have been fighting in the north and south for all these years, and the ability to fight immediately is not worse than them."
Su Dingfang is telling the truth, if he goes to fight just now, these people under him can also catch prisoners, but now the most important thing is to ensure the safety of Lord Zhao and the rest of the mission, if Su Dingfang chases people out, the safety of these people is threatened, even if he captures all the people back, Li Shimin will definitely fall to him, what is important and what is not important, as a general, you must think clearly.
"I believe what you said, and I thank General Su on behalf of the people of the mission."
Lord Zhao's words made Su Dingfang not know what to say, originally thought that Lord Zhao would not be in this situation, but I didn't expect Lord Zhao to become old and fine, and he had already seen the situation around him clearly, the combat effectiveness of our Tang army was several grades higher than Xue Yantuo, if Su Dingfang led someone to pursue, he would definitely be able to expand the results of the battle, and the reason why he didn't go out was to defend the mission.
"These are the guys who are long due."
Su Dingfang was about to say something else, and then remembered the voice of the war horse behind him, which came from the west, where is the border of Gaochang Kingdom, no need to ask to know that it was General Mo Lun who came with people, I didn't see you come out when I was fighting just now, and now you have to come out after the battle, no matter whether you are really friendly with Datang or not, just by virtue of this, you will not be able to become relatives with us in the future, at most you will be a collaborator.
"After this battle, I believe they also understand how to choose, if I guess correctly, I guess there is already news of the envoy."
Lord Zhao said with a smile, Gao Changguo just gave Xue Yantuo such an opportunity, so he put the minister of the Tang Dynasty outside the country, and now this opportunity has been given to you, you have not grasped it, your army is not the opponent of others, we have done our best, we can not continue to stop the angels of the Tang Dynasty.
Sure enough, it was similar to what Lord Zhao thought, after General Mo Lun came, he first scolded these robbers on the Gobi Desert, Su Dingfang stood next to him and smiled and did not answer, everyone knows that this is not a robber in the Gobi Desert, if you want to act, you can act, but don't expect Lao Tzu to accompany you.
Then General Morun took out another letter, they were very careful to forge it, this letter was written a few days ago, if it was written temporarily, the ink on it might not dry, this was transmitted from the previous post station, saying that their envoy had already set off, and would soon arrive in the border area, so that the people on our side would be able to meet in two days......
