The biting cold wind swept open the curtain of the handsome tent and lifted a corner of the sheepskin map. Zhao Yizhen stepped on the edge of the map with one foot www.biquge.info raised her eyes and looked out - directly opposite the three of them was a bare dirt platform, about three feet high. A beacon fire, temporarily lit by horse manure, is burning at the top.

An old soldier put a basket of fresh wet dung on the fire, and immediately a blue-gray smoke rose.

The deputy capital protector's heart tightened, "Where is this place? Why is there such an abrupt high platform? Looking at the year, I'm afraid it wasn't built ......by my Tang Dynasty conscription."

"Yudu Hu," Xiao Song clenched his fists, "This is where Bincheng used to be, starting in the Western Han Dynasty and ending in the Wei and Jin Dynasties." The city was destroyed in the war, and now the only thing that can be seen is this prayer platform. ”

Zhang Zhongliang laughed miserably, "The ancestors used it to pray for rain, and we used it to light fire." The smoke from this horse dung is far worse than wolf dung, and it is difficult to stand upright when it blows. I'm afraid that the defenders of Yumen can't see it, so they can't talk about reinforcements. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yizhen seemed to have suddenly made up her mind, "This place is unlucky." Zhang Jiedu, you take 5,000 men to feint to the east, and the more enemy troops you are involved, the better. Xiao Jiedu, you follow the capital to the west-"

Zhang Zhongliang felt a pang in his heart, "To the east is the base camp, and to the west, only the thousands of Tianyue troops in Dunhuang can be counted on, so why ......"

"I've made up my mind. Relying on the city to fight the bandits in the Western Regions!" Zhao Yizhen was categorical.

The two Jiedu envoys bowed down to receive the order, looked up at each other, and both thought that the scene of the city just being broken by Tubo in Guazhou was vivid, although Dunhuang was stronger, I am afraid that it will be difficult to stop the tide of 50,000 allied troops under the current Tutu......

At this moment, a mound five miles away from here-

"It's moving!" a leather-robed scout wrapped in a white cloth slid down from a high pole and rushed to the horse of the Great Lord of Tibet, Si Mo Lang, in a few lunges. "The Tang army moved, to the east—"

"Blow Tongqin, notify the Turks in the east to encircle!"

"We are at a downwind, and I am afraid they will not hear the trumpet. ”

Si Mo Lang inserted his frozen hands into his leather robe's arms and looked back.

A purple-robed lama immediately understood, stepped forward and gave a salute, "It's okay, let me give Suli Khan a salute!"

Without twisting after speaking, the probe took a large conch from behind the saddle, raised it to the sky, and said something in his mouth:

"Murso Bava, O hurried wind god, borrow a trace of your divine power to play the ancient Tongga from the foot of the holy mountain-Ceuta, Savatama......"

As the spell was completed, the air around him seemed to suddenly tighten, and there was a feeling of insufficient oxygen supply within a radius of kilometers.

A visible band of wind converged in the air, spiraling away all the sand and dust, forming a sharp line at the top, which poured directly into the copper tip of the conch's tail.

The loud spiral sound exploded instantly, and the long audio was lined up in a line, shooting towards the sky, and at a height of about ten zhang in the air, it actually condensed into a translucent ball of light, and it continued to grow......

The lama's arm was shaken densely by the sound of the snail, and his entire body and even the war horse under his crotch all trembled suddenly.

Eventually, the ball of light stabilized completely and did not continue to expand.

The lama withdrew the conch, pointed his other hand to the sky, and shouted in a deep voice: "Break-"

The ball of light shattered in mid-air, and the majestic horn sound accumulated inside seemed to suddenly tear through the cage and be released unscrupulously!

Woo-woo-woo-woo

The sound crossed the Tang Army's position five miles away, and was transmitted far north, wave after wave, wave after wave, wave after wave, seemingly endless......

It's strange to say, but whoever hears this number will be thrilled with the war horses under his crotch. The exuberant fighting spirit surged up in an instant!

The morale of the Tibetan army was high, and they roared, echoing the sound of trumpets in the air.

Si Mo Lang urged him to step forward, stood side by side with the great lama who had just received the Dharma, and said with a smile, "Master Ren Baozhe really has the power to reach the sky, and even the wind god can be moved!"

Ren Baozhe replied with a solemn face, "The lord's praise is not due to my strength. This snail is not an ordinary Tongga, it is actually a snail in the town hall of Sakya Temple. On this trip, the lord of the great seat specially allowed to carry this holy weapon. Just tried to cry for the first time, and it was a voice for the Turkic army, which can only be regarded as an opening of the voice. If you go all out, hehe...... I'm afraid these military horses are going to pee. ”

......

In the Tang army's array, Zhao Yizhen raised his head violently, "Why is the sound so shocking?"

Both left and right looked suspicious and could not answer.

Fortunately, a military academy rushed in and bowed down to say, "The southern Tibetan army sent a signal, and the northern Turkic elite immediately responded. Zhang Jiedu, who had broken through to the north, had already launched a blockade. ”

Zhao Yizhen narrowed her eyes, "Okay, this shows that the feint worked." The order, the account was collected and the camp was pulled, and Xiao Jiedu led 3,000 people to break off. The Celestial Wolf Army will rush west with me!"

――――――――――――――――――――

The first to engage the enemy was Zhang Zhongliang, the envoy of Longyou Jiedu.

This general, who had been guarding the eastern end of the Hexi Corridor for nearly ten years, found himself in a bitter battle.

The fierceness of the Turks, he naturally knows it well. Over the years, there have been hundreds of encounters, big and small, but they have never been so difficult.

The Turkic army in front of him is less cunning in the past when the rain of arrows opened the way, and more brave in the current close attack of the sword forest.

The 2,000 Tang Army led by Zhang Zhongliang was a light cavalry of Longyou. On the books it is the same configuration as the opponent, but the number is too small......

Suli Khan struggled with no less than 25,000 horsemen, which can be described as the end of the elite. The nearly tenfold oppressive contrast made the Longyou army breathless.

The Tang army pulled in a straight line to the north and penetrated the flank of the Turkic army. The Turkic army, with the enemy's headquarters as the axis, quickly rotated the formation sideways, like a long-handled soup spoon, and clinged to the middle and rear sections of the Tang army.

The hideous Turks gave up their volleys, tied their heads in white cloths, and shouted "Sulu is not dead!" and the Turks are invincible!" swept over like a storm, and the bright scimitars slashed at the cavalry spears of the Longyou army, crackling.

The body of the ash shaft coated with tung oil was instantly broken dozens of heels, forcing many people to temporarily abandon the gun and pull out their melee weapons.

Hearing the frantic howl of his opponent, Zhang Zhongliang's heart brightened - this bravery obviously came from the incentive to avenge Sulu.

Sulu Khan is the eldest brother of Suli Khan, Guo Ziyi's department beheaded Sulu in Dunhuang, and the head has been passed to Anxi to invite Zhao Yizhen for credit. Sent together, there were also the heads of Hui Hanhai Sima Huyi, Tubo Zampu Du Mangbu, Khotanese Wang Wei Chi and Dunhuang rebel general Hei Ya Songyan.

Tianyuejun has made great contributions, and Guo Ziyi's promotion is just around the corner. But it hurt the Longyou Army who was abused on his behalf......

Zhang Zhongliang scolded his mother in his heart, and kept yelling, "Don't fight! North Tu! North Tu! North Tu-"

This great festival envoy took the lead, galloping on the tip of the horse team. The armpit is sandwiched by the all-steel horse lance, which penetrates into the lance at the speed of the horse, like a thorn, and pierces the enemy fiercely!

The lightly armored Turkic cavalry looked naked in front of this big thorn.

Bright flowers of blood bloomed in front of Zhang Zhongliang's eyes, and the plasma that splattered on his body still carried the residual warmth of the human body - but soon, it was pulled into radial red ice marks by the winter wind.

In the relentless killing, the fine scale armor turned into a red scale armor, and the knots turned into a large goldfish. Even the big eyes that stare are exactly the same......

Both armies were fast horses and light horses, making this battle an accelerated screen.

Those who followed Zhang Zhongliang left and right were all pro-lieutenants who had been fighting for many years. Their only task was to protect the knots and flanks. Make sure the general is safe. This made Lao Zhang fight his way out of the bloody road without distraction, and quickly broke through ten miles!

There was no enemy in front of him, and he exhaled roughly. Lema looks back-

There are only scattered relatives behind him, less than 300 riders!

"What about people?" he blurted out.

A personal guard at the end of the team urged him to come forward and say, "They were all stopped...... More than two thousand people. There were too many Turkic troops, so they cut them into sections and wrapped them in zongzi......"

Zhang Zhongliang almost vomited blood, immediately turned his horse's head, and waved his lance -- "Kill back!" But if there is still one person in the Longyou Army, we can't let him fall behind!"

The festival made the border pass as expensive as the second grade of the court, and the general still spared his life for the soldiers, and the guards were naturally deeply moved. Without saying a word, they immediately turned their horses' heads and ran back to the south together!

In the distance, dozens of huge clouds of smoke and dust were like tornado clusters, clusters, clusters, circling endlessly.

From time to time, clusters spread out, turning into thousands of curves and gathering into other warbands...... Zhang Zhongliang saw it in his eyes, and his heart was dripping blood. He knew that it meant that a subordinate in the encirclement was wiped out!

The mount was stamped by both legs continuously, and the speed was pushed to the limit. The sticky saliva pulled out of the horse's mouth wafted in the wind, and the white breath exhaled from the horse's nose was like a boiling kettle.

Boom - 300 horsemen plunged headlong into the nearest circle of warbands, re-involved in the bloody millstone......

Zhang Zhongliang is not stupid, and it is not all about saving people.

Zhao Dadu's mission to him was to drag the enemy army to the north, and if no one chased him, it would be in vain to run far.

Military orders are like mountains, and they are as expensive as festivals, and they dare not disobey them.

Zhang Zhongliang, who was stabbed into the encirclement, has become a bloody man, and the war horse under his crotch has also changed from a white horse to a jujube red horse.

This red makeup has the blood of the Turks, and there is also a little blood of his own.

It is impossible not to hang the lottery, but fortunately, fresh wounds in war are always not very painful, after all, there are strong adrenal hormones that act as anesthetics.

Excited, so excited. Every cell is in a state of extreme excitation.

The surrounded Longyou army did not recognize that the blood gourd that rushed to them was their boss at the first time, and actually raised their guns to stab.

Jiedu made the horizontal lance smash open the blade of his comrade, and scolded, "Blind!?

The ensuing Longyou General Qi showed that this was not a lie, and the subordinates who reacted immediately surrounded Lao Zhang and responded to the general's kindness with high morale.

Each lap of the Turkic light cavalry was surrounded by at least three layers, running laps within a diameter of 100 meters. In order to avoid colliding with each other, they are all in a counterclockwise direction - the scimitars are straight towards the center of the circle, and when viewed from the air, they are like a large flywheel for grinding meat, gradually approaching the center.

Zhang Zhongliang is nearly sixty years old, and in the border army, only high-ranking generals can live to this age and not die.

The other man was old and refused, and he refused to fight, shaking his horse and drinking, "To the south, to the south!

The exuberant morale he brought with him had an effect, and the soldiers in this circle merged into the general's three hundred horsemen, gathered into a horse team of five or six hundred men, directly tore a gap, left sixty or seventy corpses, and rushed towards the nearest encirclement......

In the chaos of nearly 30,000 people, this group of water droplets that burned with fire continued to fight in and out, constantly merging into other droplets, snowballing into the ranks and leaving more and more corpses of their comrades.

So far, the Turks have not taken much advantage, and the number of hangers on both sides is almost the same.

However, Suli Khan could afford to play because he brought almost ten times as many chips as Zhang Zhongliang.

The 25,000 to 3,000 attrition at the same speed, with a one-to-one casualty rate, means that even if the Longyou army is completely wiped out, the Turkic army is still a giant beast that has lost its hair.

Sully was laughing...... Zhang Zhongliang's eyes were dripping blood, and he wanted to cry without tears.

The horns of the Turks whined, and a larger encirclement was formed.

It encircled the Tang army squad, which was constantly losing and growing, moving synchronously, gradually shrinking, like a life-seeking noose, quietly tightening the neck of the envoy of Longyoujiedu......
