Above the turbulent Yellow River, countless dense rafts are spread out in a row on the turbulent river.

The horizontal and vertical ones are all connected into a large area, and the river cannot be washed away at all.

It was full of Tibetan soldiers, and there were people pulling rafts with ropes to spread them out.

Getting closer and closer to the land of the Tang military village on the north bank.

All the rafts were hooked together with ropes, and countless soldiers stepped on them, and the rafts were completely submerged in the water.

The fireball smashed on it and could not cause the slightest flame.

The wide raft was black, like a huge and heavy ship.

No matter how turbulent the Yellow River is, it can't wash it away.

"Rolling stones, rolling stones, all with rolling stones, smash hard." Li Duozuo wore a black fish-scale armor, and waved the long knife in his hand vigorously, urging the catapult on the side to hurry up and throw the rolling stones, he was really in a hurry now.

If the Tibetans were left to work on the river, it would not be long before the rafts were spread out directly to the other side of the river.

Even as soon as they entered the range of their bows and arrows, they would immediately pose a huge threat to the northern shore military fortress.

……

The round rolling stones slashed through the air and smashed directly on the pavement, instantly smashing a huge hole, but the rolling stones also fell into the river.

The Tibetan soldiers on the raft were unusually indifferent, and one after another rafts were sent up, continuing to cover the hook, ignoring the rolling stones overhead.

They are not Christians, but they are more aloof and fanatical than Christians.

Rolling stones fell one after another, and the raft capsized, but in an instant it was connected again, as if there was no end.

Li Duozuo looked at the scene in front of him with shock and anger, and his fists were clenched tightly.

He didn't expect that the task given to him by the king of Nanchang suddenly turned into this ugly situation.

For assisting the King of Nanchang to win down his colleagues, or even as the main general, Li Duozuo has long known that his name has fallen into the eyes of the emperor.

As long as it is done, then he will have a bright future, but once he fails, he will immediately hit the bottom.

Even in the future, as long as it falls into a big war in the eyes of the emperor, he will not be used again.

"Order, transfer all the catapults......" Li Duozuo gritted his teeth, turned around and immediately gave an order, but at this time, a calm voice sounded on the side: "No need. ”

Li Xuan walked out of the darkness calmly, dressed in red clothes and gold armor, which was extremely eye-catching.

He stood under the watchtower, looked at the raft above the Yellow River in the distance, and said calmly: "Brother Gaichuan, don't you see that they are doing this now to cover the entire Longwu River estuary with a raft."

Such a large amount of money requires at least a thousand rafts, and I am afraid that this kind of thing began to call a large number of people to prepare half a month ago.

So right now, in the Tubo army village opposite, there are at least 3,000 soldiers, and in the rear, there may be more. ”

"Lord Wang!" Li Duozuo immediately turned around and said solemnly to Li Xuan: "It's the last general's negligence." ”

"It's none of your business." Li Xuan waved his hand directly and said thoughtfully: "Even this king has always felt that the Tubo people have no good means to cross the river, but I really didn't expect that they would use such a stupid method.

The terrain here is special, if you use a raft to cover the river, and then lock it tightly with a hook lock to hook one side of the riverbank, then you can indeed build a stable pontoon bridge.

I can also use this method, and I used to find it a little difficult in some places, but now it seems that there is a solution. ”

"Lord Wang!" Li Duozuo knew that Li Xuan was changing the grain road now, but now it was not about the grain road, now it was these rafts, and they had threatened the camp on the north bank.

Li Duozuo's face was ugly: "Lord Wang, if you let them continue like this, then when it is dawn, they should be spread to the north shore." ”

Now there are only 1,000 soldiers in Longwu Village, but there are more than 3,000 people on the opposite side.

Before, they had been relying on the terrain to support calmly, but now that they have no terrain advantage, they will immediately enter a difficult struggle.

Li Xuan smiled lightly, looked up to the west, and said softly, "Look, what's on it?" ”

Li Duozuo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked towards the place where Li Xuan's eyes were looking.

Suddenly, in the firelight, round objects continued to rise and fall in the water of the Yellow River.

The next moment, the round objects had slammed into the raft.

There was a sound of "bang", and in an instant, a dozen rafts were directly smashed away, and the impact of those round objects completely dissipated.

A large number of the Tibetan soldiers above fell directly into the water, and then were carried by the turbulent Yellow River and rushed further downstream.

Li Duozuo subconsciously looked upstream, and more round objects kept undulating in the Yellow River water, constantly impacting the raft.

"Stakes?" In a very short period of time, Li Duozuo has already seen clearly the means and means used by Li Xuan.

He didn't expect that the best way to tear open these rafts turned out to be wooden stakes.

He didn't expect that this kind of method, when Li Xuan arrived, he had already figured it out just by looking at it, and arranging it in the afternoon would be so effective.

……

Li Xuan looked sideways at Li Duozuo and said calmly: "There are a hundred cavalry behind, ready to go, there are at least five hundred Tubo soldiers on the Yellow River, even if eighty percent of them are killed or wounded in the Yellow River, one or two percent will be killed alive on the north bank." Go ahead and get rid of all these hidden dangers. ”

"Obey!" A trace of scarlet killing intent suddenly flashed in Li Duozuo's eyes, and as soon as he arched his hand, he immediately strode away.

Standing under the watchtower, looking at Li Duozuo's back, Li Xuan nodded with slight satisfaction.

Compared with Li Duozuo, Qiu Zhenmu is much worse.

In terms of decisiveness, Qiu Zhenmu is even worse.

In the final analysis, the lives in his hands are far less than Li Duozuo's, and they may not even be comparable to a fraction.

When Qiu Zhenmu meets ordinary people, she may think about how to kill him; When Li Duozuo met ordinary people, he thought more about how not to kill him.

I hope Qiu Zhenmu can experience it soon.

Li Xuan raised his head and looked at the middle of the Yellow River, where more wooden stakes rushed from the upper reaches of the river, directly tearing apart one raft after another.

The Tibetan raft array was completely destroyed.

Although the Tibetan soldiers who fell into the river were undulating in the turbulent river, they were struggling with all their might, and they did not submerge in the water for half a day, but went downstream along the current, and they were quite aware of the water between their movements.

"Well prepared!" Li Xuan's gaze crossed the Yellow River and landed directly on the opposite riverbank, as if in the darkness of the opposite sentry tower, there was a hidden person, who was crossing the Yellow River, staring at him.

"It's a replacement!" A trace of solemnity flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

Although the Tibetan defenders were also attacking the north bank before, they were mostly harassing.

Now that the overall situation has changed, in addition to Li Jinxing having already killed in Guide City, so that the Tubo defenders on the opposite side have to step up their attacks, more of them are still changing generals in Tubo, and they are changing good hands

Li Xuan lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth sneered slightly: "You can control yourself not to be in a hurry, and you can control the people who don't know anything, but you can't control the generals under your command not to be impatient, and the initiative is no longer in your hands." ”

On the Chin Tomb.

Li Xuan looked up in the direction of Wuhai, with a light sneer in his eyes, his face was solemn and very weird.

……

In the early morning, the sky was bright, and a group of soldiers returned to the camp one after another under the military order.

On the surface of the Yellow River, near the south bank, there are still large and intact rafts connected together.

Only at this time, the soldiers above also disappeared.

But in the camp behind, the figure could still be clearly seen shaking in the distance.

The number of soldiers in it was definitely not less than three thousand.

If you count the Tibetan soldiers who have just arrived and cannot enter the barracks, there are at least 5,000 people on the other side.

Have the Tibetans increased their troops?

A familiar sound of footsteps sounded behind him, Li Xuan tilted his head slightly, and Li Duozuo's voice followed closely: "Back to the prince, a total of one hundred and seventy-three Tubo soldiers were captured downstream, ninety-four were killed, and the rest were corpses floating in the river. ”

Li Xuan nodded slightly, although the Tubo people used extremely rare sailors, but in the turbulent Yellow River, the danger was too great, and nearly half of the casualties were killed.

"Brother Gaichuan, what do you think the Tubo people are suddenly crossing the river so hard?" Li Xuan raised his head and looked at Li Duozuo.

"It's because the general has reached the city of Guide!" Li Duozuo's expression was solemn, and he said coldly: "The Tubo people are oppressing us and others, trying to make us reduce their support for Guide and shake the rear of the army, so as to win the victory on the front line. ”

Li Xuan nodded slightly and continued: "What else? ”

"He is watching the reality of our army, grain and grass, supplies, and the influence of the plateau miasma in the army?" Li Duozuo's expression was already a little embarrassed when he spoke.

Altitude miasma is altitude sickness.

When people who are accustomed to staying in the plains come to the plateau, it is easy to cause palpitations, palpitations, and fatigue.

Of course, this is caused by lack of oxygen and low pressure, which causes the body to lose control.

The plateau miasma was the greatest enemy of the army in the conquest of Tibet, because he did not know when it would come.

The strength of people's bodies is different, and if the body is weak, I am afraid that as soon as they reach the plateau, the plateau miasma will immediately surge, and the heart will be flustered, palpitations, heart stuffiness, fatigue, and even bleeding from the seven orifices, just like seeing a ghost.

Those who are physically strong will resist for a while before attacking, but by this time, people have gone deep into the plateau, and the fierce battle is in full swing, and the sudden onset of illness is the most fatal.

In Dafeichuan that year, Xue Rengui, who went deep into Wuhai at the front, was the latter, and the last to escort grain and grass, his body was weak, but it was Guo Zhifeng who was relieved.

Today's situation is quite similar, Li Jinxing's department at the front is the former, and Li Xuan, who escorts grain and grass at the back, is the latter.

"So now the plateau miasma is breaking out in the army?" Li Xuan asked very casually.

Li Duozuo frowned slightly, and then said: "Back to the prince, under Guide City, the body of a hundred percent of the soldiers is already difficult to support. ”

"One percent, not much, but further west, the number will increase rapidly." Li Xuan looked sideways at Li Duozuo, and then asked, "How long does the general plan to capture Guide?" ”

Li Duozuo immediately bowed his hand and said: "Back to the prince, it is half a month, and the general wants to see if the reaction of the plateau miasma is as the prince said." ”

Altitude sickness, Li Xuan can be said to be the person who knows the most about this imperial court.

The book he wrote in the first place, and this time it was really used.

Li Xuan raised his head, looked at the other side, and said softly: "Then you have to be careful, be careful that the other side has come to find our flaws in this half a month, if you don't move, if you move, I'm afraid it will kill us at any time,"

Li Duozuo was suddenly terrified, and subconsciously asked: "Dao, is he planning to completely capture Jianzha and completely cut off our army's retreat?" ”

"Isn't that what we're doing right now?" Li Xuan turned around, glanced at Li Duozuo calmly, and then said calmly: "As long as our retreat is cut off, then the army of ten thousand people will collapse immediately along the way, and even the black tooth Changzhi will be forced to go back." ”

Li Duozuo had calmed down, and said with a sneer: "His abacus beads are really loud. ”

Li Xuan smiled, waved his hand, then looked at the opposite riverbank, and said softly: "This is not a bad thing, this at least proves that the commander of the Tubo army on the opposite side has never thought that we will think about taking the opportunity to break through them and win down our colleagues, which is our biggest advantage." ”
