Chapter 832: The Battle of Wuhai

The partial general Chen Qi also saluted Su Dingfang and expressed his worries.

This is a war between countries, and a war cannot determine the direction of two countries.

Only by breaking the surface with points and completely defeating the opponent through a victory with subsequent soldiers and horses can the final victory be achieved.

Now it is completely unnecessary to start a war with the Tubo people in such a hurry.

"Do you think I'm a prince for nothing? I naturally know these things, and I don't expect to defeat Tubo in this battle.

Where are the follow-up soldiers and horses now, it has been so long, they should have crossed the Tuhun Valley! ”

Su Dingfang smiled, how could he not think about these things.

Although the follow-up soldiers and horses have not yet arrived, the fighters are fleeting.

If you wait until the army really puts on a posture to confront the Tibetans head-on, the Tibetans will inevitably increase their vigilance, and it will not be so easy to take down the other party at that time.

"According to the intelligence, General Li Qiming has led 30,000 elite soldiers to converge the soldiers and horses on the border, and the total number is about 50,000 and has been stationed in the Tuhun Valley."

Chen Hu directly told the information he received.

"Immediately send someone to give Li Qiming an order, and let him prepare to set off with the soldiers and horses of Tuhun Valley.

Once I defeat the main force of Tubo in Wuhai, I will immediately follow my footsteps, and this time I will fight in a battle that Tubo will not dare to covet the Tang Dynasty for decades. ”

Su Dingfang glanced at the turquoise sky, his eyes full of ruthless killing intent.

"General, think twice!"

Chen Hu is also depressed, are you so sure that you can defeat the Tubo people?

In case you can't take down the enemy, Li Qiming will lead the army to kill again, and then it will become an opportunity for the other party to encircle and annihilate him.

If there is a problem with these tens of thousands of people, not only will the Tuhun Valley not be able to hold it, but even Hezhou, Luzhou, and even Lanzhou, which are adjacent to the Tuhun Valley, will have problems.

It's not a battle anymore, it's a gamble.

If you win, you may gain a certain advantage, and if you lose, the loss can be far greater than the benefit you gain.

It's a thankless deal.

"Think twice about what to do, and go to the order immediately."

Su Dingfang frowned, he didn't believe that he would lose, and he didn't believe that the Datang Jingqi would lose.

You must know that he has a trump card in his hand now, Li Yanran's explosives are used properly, let alone 80,000 people, even if 180,000 people themselves are still confident that they can defeat them.

"Whoa!"

Chen Hu sighed, and could only go to the order to ask Pegasus to go to Li Qiming to act according to the order.

Pegasus left, and Su Dingfang also seized the time to formulate a battle strategy.

Li Mingqi received Su Dingfang's order, and although he had many doubts, he immediately took action.

After all, the other party is the newly promoted prince of the country, and he is the commander appointed by the emperor this time.

The soldier prioritizes obedience to orders, and he has no reason to refuse.

The Tang army took action, and Tuhun Valley also gathered 30,000 foot cavalry to join the Tang army and began to march towards the front line.

"Deputy Prime Minister, after the winter, we will be able to directly attack the hinterland of Tuhun Valley, and when we take Tuhun Valley, you will be a great hero of Tubo."

Wing Commander Akima looked at the Tubo Deputy Prime Minister Dayan Mangbu in front of him, and his eyes were full of flattery.

"Don't underestimate the enemy, this time the prime minister returns, Datang has decided to support Tuhun Valley and officially start a war with our Tubo.

If you really met the elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, this battle would not be as easy to fight as imagined. ”

Dayan Mangbu shook his head, he also wanted to completely occupy Tuhun Valley smoothly, and then his prestige would be as high as it was rising, even if it was compared with Lu Dongzan, there would not be much of a gap.

But now the Tang Dynasty is shameless to send troops to help Tuhun Valley, and even wants to start a war with Tubo.

This adds a lot of variables.

"What's so difficult about this, if Tuhun Valley can be taken, we will take it, and if we can't take it, we will withdraw to Tubo.

There is our world, no matter how elite the soldiers and horses of Datang are, it will not help! ”

Akima laughed, Datang is very powerful, he admits it, but how can it be powerful?

Tubo has a heavenly plateau, no matter how powerful the Tang Dynasty is, it is impossible to kill Tubo itself.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty has always been on the defensive during the time of the war with Tubo, and if he wants to attack himself, there is no door.

"What you said is right, it is impossible for Datang to kill Tubo, even so, we can't take it lightly.

The soldiers were instructed to hurry up and bypass Yuan Dongri Cuona Lake, and be sure to completely take the Tuhun Valley before the arrival of the Tang reinforcements. ”

Dayan Mangbu looked at Akima again, the reason why Tubo and Datang were able to hold out for so long was due to natural geographical factors.

Otherwise, with the strength of the Tang army, Tubo would have been wiped out in one fell swoop like the Tuhun Valley.

But it can't be helped, who told you not to do it.

"Yes!"

Akima saluted and directly ordered the army to speed up its detour around the Winter Cuona Lake and march towards the hinterland of the Tuhun Valley.

"General, the Tubo people have moved, and they have begun to circumvent Wuhai! Now the march is being made towards Ansar Road. ”

The Tubo people moved, and the scouts arranged by Su Dingfang immediately came over to report the information.

"Now that we're here, let's get started."

"Chen Hu!"

"In!"

"Order you to lead 2,000 cavalry to ambush on the left side of Ansar Road, and once the battle starts, immediately attack the enemy from the left side!"

"Whoa!"

"Liu Qi!"

"Yes."

"Order you to lead 2,000 cavalry to ambush on the right side of Ansar Road, and once the battle starts, immediately attack the enemy from the right side!"

"Whoa!"

"Su Ming!"

"In!"

"Order you to lead a thousand cavalry to go around to the rear of the enemy, and once the battle starts, attack the enemy from the rear!"

"Whoa!"

"There are five thousand remaining elite horsemen, and the general will crush them from the front!"

"Datang Wansheng!"

After arranging the deployment, Su Dingfang also hammered his fist on the armor on his chest.

"Datang Wansheng!"

"Datang Wansheng!"

"Datang Wansheng!"

A group of generals and soldiers also hit their left chest with their right fists, and shouted with Su Dingfang.

"Let's go!"

Suddenly, the people roared, and the 10,000 cavalry soldiers began to rush towards their respective positions in four directions.

"Guogong, five thousand elite horsemen to attack the enemy's 80,000 army, isn't it too risky!"

The personal guard Su Lin rode his horse to Su Dingfang's side, his eyes full of worry.

"Risky? Have you forgotten the thing that Her Royal Highness Princess Lishan gave you before you left? ”

"You're going to use that explosive to disrupt the enemy's formation, and then surprise attack?"

Su Lin was also relieved at this time, if that thing was really as invincible as Su Dingfang said, then it would be difficult for the Tubo people to fight this battle.

"That's right, so we're going to get there as soon as we can."

"Whoa!"

Su Dingfang's army also hurriedly rushed to the predetermined battle site and began to dig pits in the ground to bury the explosives contained in the barrels.

In order to pursue the lethal effect, Su Dingfang also ordered someone to get some iron pieces and put them in the barrel, so that when the explosive barrel explodes, it will definitely give the Tubo people a big surprise.

After all the explosive barrels were buried, Su Dingfang also arranged for several death squads to hide in the dug Tibetan soldier holes, ready to detonate them at any time.

Everything was ready, and Su Dingfang's 5,000 cavalry were also ambushed two miles away.

After Su Dingfang's men and horses were in place, the 80,000 Tubo army also lined up in a long line and strolled on the Ansar Road.

"Wing Commander, can you let me lead my troops to the mainland of the Tang Dynasty to plunder after entering the Tuhun Valley this time?"

A soldier commander looked at Akima, his eyes shining with ferocity like a hungry wolf.

"If you can really take Tuhun Valley this time, you don't need to say that this wing commander will also take you into the Tang Dynasty and let you plunder at will."

A hideous smile also lit up on Akima's face.

The Tang Dynasty is too rich compared to Tubo, and every Tubo person wants to take the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty for themselves.

The same is true for a soldier, and the same is true for his wing.

Looting the Tang Dynasty, what a wonderful thing that is!

"So I'll thank Wing Commander first!"

Hearing Achima's definite answer, the commander also hurried away.

There was also a burst of cheers among the Tibetan soldiers in front, and it was obvious that they already knew the news of the imminent looting of the Tang Dynasty.

"These wolf cubs, really..!"

Listening to the cheers, Akima also laughed, patted the war horse under his crotch and said, "You must also want to go to Datang to gallop!" ”

"Herod!"

The war horse also snorted and responded to Akima's words.

The Tubo army marched slowly, and the front row troops quickly crossed the minefield arranged by Su Dingfang, and soon the Chinese army also slowly advanced into the range of the explosion.

"General, their vanguard has passed the minefield of the explosion, and now their Chinese army is also within the explosion range."

Soon, a scout also rushed in front of Su Dingfang.

"Pass on my military order, and the whole army will be dispatched! Horses step on the Tibetan army. ”

The 5,000 cavalrymen who were lying in ambush in front directly carried their guns and killed them.

"What sound?"

Listening to the strange sound and feeling the shaking of the earth, Akima was also stunned for a moment.

"Array up to meet the enemy! Scouts, scouts! ”

The so-called darkness under the lamp is like this, and their scouts can still be found from a distance, but on the contrary, Su Dingfang, who is close at hand, has no trace at all.

Several scouts also stepped out of the formation and ran forward.

The Tibetan soldiers in the front row also began to transform into a battle form in a panic.

"Run! Tang Jun is Tang Jun. ”

Several of the scouts shuddered, turned their horses, and retreated.

"Kill it!"

Su Dingfang saw the enemy scout in front of him, and directly bent his bow and arrows to nail one person to the ground, and then changed to a long lance and charged ahead.

"Not good, prepare quickly, shieldmen, archers, spearmen!"

Looking at the cavalry that appeared in the field of vision, Akima's heart rose directly to his throat.

While directing the soldiers to prepare to meet the enemy, they retreated backwards.

If the front army can't stop the enemy's attack, then give it up, at least it can buy some time for the Chinese army.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

With Su Dingfang's attack, the soldiers hiding in the hidden soldier cave directly ignited the lead that had been arranged a long time ago, and then the sky was thundering.

Barrels of explosives exploded everywhere, shattered bodies and soldiers lying in pools of blood.

Under this explosion, Tubo's military spirit and formation were torn to pieces in an instant, especially those unlucky people in the front row.

Now that they have a strong enemy in front and an explosion in the back, how can anyone resist Su Dingfang's attack.

"Kill!"
