Chapter 1185 Datang man, be invincible
The army set off.
Huolu City was the base camp for this battle, and Jia Pingan left thousands of people to guard it.
"All supplies are stopped!"
A group of cavalry galloped down the supply channel until they saw a train of supplies.
"Hide nearby and wait for news from the army."
The cavalry rushed forward on horseback.
The general guarding the luggage shouted: "Maybe enter the city?"
"cannot!"
The general looked in the direction of the city with gloomy eyes.
"The Tocharians are unreliable!"
There is not a single cart on the entire supply channel in Tocharo. Only the deep ruts on the empty avenue tell people how lively this place used to be.
A group of Tocharian cavalry galloped on the road.
"Where is Tang Jun's supply convoy?"
"Didn't see it."
The news keeps coming back.
In the house, the Lord of Tocharo asked gloomily: "Is the supply gone?"
A general said: "The Tang Army's supplies have all stopped."
The lord of the country slowly looked at the crowd, "What did Jia Pingan find?"
A general shook his head, "We didn't do anything, he couldn't detect it."
The lord suddenly roared angrily: "Then why did the Tang army stop their supplies?"
The general said: "The big cannibals have attacked their grain roads before. If the big cannibals repeat their tricks during the war between the two armies, the morale of the Tang army will be hit. So I think this is Jia Pingan's cautious move."
"That's good."
The lord's face became more flushed, and he looked at everyone with piercing eyes, "This is our chance. We only need to defeat the Tang army in one battle, and the big cannibals will rush into Anxi. They will charge and kill, and we will expand...we don't need to fight Food is the enemy, we only need a piece of territory, and then each of you will become the leader, countless lands, cattle and sheep, countless slaves... Go, for the future of Tocharian."
The generals suddenly agreed.
"For the Tochara."
The generals went out.
The lord put his hands together and prayed devoutly: "May the gods bless you..."
…
The two armies are moving towards each other.
Even if it’s just a march, the sound of footsteps can still shake the earth!
Puff puff!
Looking down from the sky, the formation of the big cannibals is vast and boundless, and the blackness is divided into countless pieces.
Tens of thousands of cavalry were at the forefront. They held their heads high and held their sword hilts tightly.
Looking forward, a hundred thousand troops are coming.
Thousands of cavalry and infantry lined up on both wings, as if walls were moving as a whole.
The war horse neighed softly. In the sky, falcons were soaring, as if they smelled the smell of blood, they kept circling over the army.
When the black line in the distance could be seen, the two sides did not slow down.
Bu Zhuo looked ahead, "Go ahead!"
Jia Pingan said flatly: "The crossbow array."
Snapped!
It was just an action of taking out a crossbow, but the sound was extraordinarily loud.
"go ahead!"
Jia Pingan nodded.
The army keeps approaching.
"Bu Zhuo, Tang Jun's crossbow!"
The distance between the two sides was shortened to about three miles, and someone reported Tang Jun's movements.
Bu Zhuo's cheeks trembled slightly.
This is a battle of momentum.
The two armies are moving towards each other.
Who will stop first?
Whoever is timid!
Jia Ping'an's eyes were calm.
Wang Zhongliang beside him was whispering the news collected by Baiqi.
"As long as there is land, there is an army of Dashi. They are invincible, and their army is full of confidence. They will not stop facing any opponent..."
Poof!
A loud voice came.
Wang Zhongliang raised his eyes.
The Dashi army on the opposite side has stopped.
He looked at Jia Pingan again, and saw a touch of coldness and disdain.
"Stop!"
The army stopped.
Everyone is looking ahead.
Countless eyes meet in front of you.
Confidence, pride...
"We are invincible!"
"Yes, there is no army in this world that can stop us, not even the Tang Dynasty."
The big food soldiers are full of confidence.
Since the Eastern Expedition, they have never met an opponent.
The same is true for the Datang army on the opposite side.
This is the first collision of the two invincible armies of the East and the West.
Rhodes said lightly: "This battle will determine who is the master of this continent."
The corners of Bu Zhuo's mouth slightly raised, "We!"
opposite.
"The enemy lineup is neat."
Gao Kan turned his head, "This is a stronger opponent than the Tibetans."
Wang Zhongliang felt a little guilty.
Will you be defeated?
He has been serving the emperor in the palace, and this time the emperor ordered him to come to see all this and report back.
Emperors who cannot conquest themselves need a pair of eyes.
His breathing was a little strained.
He couldn't help but glanced at Jia Ping'an.
Jia Pingan nodded slightly, "The big cannibal is a strong player in the world, but we are stronger!"
In an instant, Wang Zhongliang felt something surging in his chest.
"They are arrogant."
Gao Kan pointed to the front.
The two riders rushed out of the Dashi camp.
Jia Pingan said: "This is a pre-war temptation, work hard, tell them, either retreat, or bleed here!"
Li Jingye rode out with the interpreter.
"What is Tang Jun's attitude?"
Rhodes was very curious, "If they are weak, then the rest will be easy to handle."
Bu Zhuo sneered, "50,000 troops is a battle for the whole country. Such a Tang Dynasty will be weakened after only one defeat. How can such a Tang Dynasty be our opponent?"
Emissaries from both sides meet in the middle of the battlefield.
The Great Food Messenger said: "Why did the Tang Dynasty come so far?"
This is a temptation.
The envoy must have the ability to judge the situation, so the Dashi envoy was not vicious at first, but asked a little weakly.
The envoy of the Tang Dynasty will inevitably soften his position, and then he will make a high-profile again...
This is a speech.
Ordinary people can't guard against it at all.
Li Jingye glanced at him disdainfully, "This is the territory of Datang, and there are only two options for Dashi..."
The messenger felt that it was not very good.
Li Jingye said word by word: "Either go back, or... use your blood to stain this land red!"
As if a hurricane hit him, the messenger's expression changed, and he was about to speak.
"Walk!"
Li Jingye glanced at the envoy the moment he rode his horse and turned around.
This look is full of murderous intent.
The messenger galloped back.
"Two options?"
Buzhuo said: "This is exactly what I want to say, they either quit Tochara, or they all stay here."
"The Tang army is dominated by infantry, let's use cavalry." Rhodes said: "The sooner this battle ends, the better."
"I know what you want to say." Bu Zhuo said: "There are many forces in this area. If we can't solve it quickly, there will be many accidents. Of course, these difficulties are faced by Tang Jun more than us."
He sat up straight on the horseback, "They will use infantry to resist our cavalry, so...why not use infantry to crush them?"
Rhodes was surprised, "But our cavalry is better, and the cavalry can quickly approach the Tang army, avoiding multiple crossbow strikes."
"A 200,000 army, who will we be afraid of?"
Bu Zhuo's eyes became more confident, "Use pawns to tell them that no matter what it is, Datang is no match for Dashi."
Rhodes was silent.
Only using pawns to defeat the opponent's pawns can explain the power of Dashi. And when the cannibals defeat the Tang army's infantry, the cannibals will have an indescribable sense of superiority.
Guided by this sense of superiority, they will be invincible.
And Datang will lose morale.
This is the ebb and flow.
"Strike!"
woo woo woo...
The horn sounded for a long time.
Teams of infantry set off.
"Victory!"
Someone raised their arms and shouted.
"Victory!"
They began to move forward slowly.
This is the rhythm.
In the Tang army formation, the crossbow formation has already taken shape.
"Duke, they are..." Wang Zhongliang felt incredible, "They have tens of thousands of cavalry, why not use them?"
Jia Ping'an said: "It's just because they want to use infantry to defeat our army's infantry."
Is this a brain twitch?
"This is not a simple fight, this is a battle between two huge countries, Datang and Dashi. What are the two countries competing for? It's people! It's a competition of which country's farmers are better at farming, and which country's farmers are better than others. A country's soldiers fight more sharply... It's like a soldier fighting with another soldier. The morale of the loser will drop, and the winning side will celebrate with the whole country..."
"The Great Tang will surely win!" Wang Zhongliang said solemnly.
Jia Pingan nodded, "Of course!"
"The enemy army is coming."
Someone shouted ahead.
The enemy army began to accelerate.
The crossbow array is being prepared.
The flag is raised high.
The crossbow is slowly raised.
"Five hundred steps..."
The general shouted, "Fu Yuan Nu!"
At one end of the crossbow array, crossbowmen are preparing.
"Four hundred steps!"
The enemy army is running.
"Quick, the sooner the better!"
The general urged his subordinates to speed up.
"Quick! The faster you run, the less you will be shot!"
The infantry began to run wildly.
"Where are their firearms?"
Rhodes asked.
"It's useless." Bu Zhuo shook his head, "I don't know what Jia Pingan thinks."
"It is said that the roar is like thunder, and there are heavy casualties ahead."
Rhodes said: "Could it be unusable?"
"Tang Jun is about to attack."
Someone in the Tang army shouted, "Three hundred steps!"
The general shouted, "Fu Yuannu... shoot the arrow!"
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
Amidst the dense sound, the crossbow arrows flew over.
The big food pawns who were running fast raised their heads.
They open their mouths...
Puff puff puff puff!
In the dense sound, a gap appeared in the array.
The general cursed: "Quick!"
Terrible Tang Jun!
The pawns are running wildly.
"Two hundred steps!"
In the crossbow formation, most crossbowmen raised their crossbows.
"One hundred and sixty steps..."
Daqi suddenly pointed forward.
"Shoot the arrow!"
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The sound of pulling the crossbow is so intense that it makes one's scalp tingle.
Bang bang bang bang!
Intensive voices came, and then dark clouds lifted into the sky.
Huge dark clouds cover the sky.
Straight forward.
"It's Tang Jun's crossbow array!"
Rhodes looked stern, "This is a strong opponent."
"It's just that the crossbow is powerful, and our warriors will use their fearless side to suppress them."
"Shoot the arrow!"
A wave of arrows knocked over the pawns rushing to the front.
"Why no artillery?"
Wang Zhongliang asked.
"Don't give enemy horses a chance to adapt to artillery."
Jia Pingan felt that he was teaching the emperor a lesson.
Wang Zhongliang let out a cry.
"Lance..."
Ahead, the spear array is preparing.
The big cannibal is approaching.
Those ferocious faces were full of arrogance.
They have defeated their opponents countless times, and they are invincible from west to east.
Until they encountered Datang in the East.
The generals stopped cautiously, they were evaluating the possibility of war with this huge empire.
Today is the conclusion!
Who wins?
"kill!"
The spearmen in front suddenly moved.
Intensive spear stabbing!
The big cannibals in front fell one after another, but the following big cannibals rushed out bravely.
A spear pierces, a sword slashes.
"kill!"
The spearmen were not moved at all.
In an instant, the front became a river of blood.
"Terrible!"
Wang Zhongliang's eyelids jumped wildly.
One by one fell down like this, and every face was full of fanaticism or excitement.
Can't see the fear.
The two sides entered a stalemate.
Ahead, Datang's long spear array is as solid as a mountain.
No matter how the enemy's infantry strikes, they still cannot shake a single bit.
Wang Fangyi rose to kill in front, shouting: "The enemy army is weak, please ask the Duke!"
Jia Pingan got the news, and said calmly: "The big cannibal wants to use infantry to break down our army's infantry. Do they think that the big cannibal is more brave than the Datang people? So, tell them today, Datang... Invincible!"
He raised his hand, "Attack!"
"The government has an order, attack!"
The flag waved.
"Strike!"
The spearmen stepped forward together.
Under intensive stabbing, the enemy still did not retreat.
The corpses are dense.
Rivers of blood flowed past his feet.
"kill!"
The spearmen stabbed hard, pushing the enemy back step by step.
"The big cannibal is really brave." Gao Kan said: "Even if it is a Tubo person, it should collapse at this moment."
"But the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are more brave."
Jia Ping'an raised his head, but the most outstanding cavalry in the opposite Dashi formation still did not move.
"Tang Jun counterattacked."
Rhodes looked stern, "Bu Zhuo, they need to respond."
"You overestimated Jia Ping'an and underestimated our warriors."
Bu Zhuo said in a deep voice: "Jia Pingan knows that we use infantry to charge the battle, and just wants to tell them that the big cannibal is more brave. So he must counterattack, otherwise the reputation of the big cannibal as more brave will become the Tang army's reputation." The nightmare. Now the test is perseverance! We have no shortage of perseverance!"
Every moment someone is howling and falling down.
Every moment there are people shouting crazily.
"kill!"
The spearmen's eyes were indifferent.
They have long been accustomed to fighting with superior enemy forces, and most of them are cavalry.
From Turks to Korea, from Tubo to Dashi, they have never been afraid of any opponent.
"Is Jia Ping'an still unwilling to use a big knife?"
Modao was famous in the war against Tubo, even the cannibals knew about it.
Bu Zhuo frowned.
"He wants to use the simplest means to defeat us, he wants to tell us..."
Jia Pingan said slowly in the formation: "Men from the Tang Dynasty, be invincible!"
Someone came to the front.
"The Duke of the state has an order... A man of the Tang Dynasty, be invincible!"
"Victory!"
Tang Army officers and soldiers are cheering.
Accompanied by the cheers, there was a more rapid impact.
One by one, the big cannibals fell under the spears, and they began to panic.
A big cannibal suddenly turned around.
"ah!"
He howled and ran back.
A straight knife is flying, and a human head is spinning in the air.
"kill!"
The general looked livid and looked back.
"Our pawns are agitated."
Rhodes warned: "Once it collapses, look at the two wings of the Tang army, those cavalry will sweep in, we will be blocked by our own rout, and then we will be defeated."
Bu Zhuo said: "The cavalry stepped forward to respond."
The cavalry immediately spread out to protect the infantry's wings.
"The enemy general is timid."
Jia Ping'an laughed and said, "This is a chase to intercept our infantry with cavalry when we retreat."
Ahead, a big cannibal was picked up by several spears, and then smashed down heavily.
The big cannibal behind him had crazy eyes, turned around and slashed.
"Put me back!"
The long and brutal fight destroyed his sanity.
Messed up.
"The enemy army is in chaos, let's attack."
Someone suggested.
Jia Pingan shook his head, "Their cavalry are on the two wings. If the whole army attacks, it will become a melee."
Wang Zhongliang: "..."
He was stunned, "They can also be defeated in melee."
Jia Pingan said: "But what I want is to use an impeccable victory to let the big cannibals understand that the East is not a place they can covet."
"The enemy is fleeing!"
The big cannibals began to flee.
Jia Pingan said contemptuously: "This is the elite of the army?"
"Defeated!"
Rhodes shouted: "The cavalry responds."
Bu Zhuo said calmly: "We lost in the first battle."
He looked at the cavalry, "But we still have a chance to turn defeat into victory. Let all the cavalry attack later and protect the infantry back."
Tens of thousands of cavalry were dispatched.
"Duke, the enemy is attacking."
Jia Ping'an has already seen it.
"Pawns chase and kill twenty steps."
This wave of pursuit can be described as hearty, the big cannibal left a lot of corpses, and fled back in embarrassment under the protection of the cavalry.
Jia Ping'an said calmly: "The enemy general wanted to gain a sense of superiority in the first battle, but now the sense of superiority is gone, and their pawns are useless."
Gao Kan smiled happily: "Our army just dispatched pikes and infantry and defeated them. Is this the elite of Dashi?"
Wang Zhongliang found that the soldiers became more confident and relaxed.
Is this the benefit of an equal confrontation?
It turns out that fighting is not only for the purpose of victory, but also the morale of both sides, even the morale of the two countries.
"Rod." Bu Zhuo took the initiative to discuss, "We have two choices, either go back to repair and wait for morale to recover, or send out cavalry for a decisive battle. Which option do you think is better?"
"Ask first."
Rhodes called the general in charge of the infantry, "How about the Tang army's infantry?"
The general's face was flushed, and he was ashamed, "Their infantry are brave and powerful..."
He looked up at Rhodes, "Our pawns... are not opponents."
"Bu Zhuo, that's why they dared to use 50,000 soldiers to fight a war against the country."
There was more determination in Rhodes' eyes, "The pawns will feel that they are not opponents. The longer the rest period, the more frustrated they will be. Unless we win a victory immediately, we will have no chance of winning this battle. "
Bu Zhuo nodded, "That's what I thought too. This trial... we have no way out."
He raised his eyes and looked at the opposite side, "Ready to wake up the Tocharians."
Rhodes smiled, "Jia Ping'an will be heartbroken."
Bu Zhuo shook his head, "No, he will be stunned, and then be at a loss."
Half an hour later.
"Attack."
Tens of thousands of cavalry launched an attack.
"Is this a one-off effort?"
Jia Pingan smiled and said, "Cannon."
One after another, the artillery was pulled out.
"Dedication!"
