Chapter 287 Regret
Ashina Helu led tens of thousands of people under his command out of prison mountain.
"Take care of yourself!"
Zhu Xie waved alone, very reluctantly.
Ashina Helu waved his hand and said in a low voice, "How much food and grass did you bring out?"
Someone around said: "Most of them were brought out by us."
Someone asked: "Zhu Xiegu bets that if there is no food, he will probably attack."
"I want him to attack." Ashina Helu gave Laoshan a cold look, "Tang Jun will definitely attack Laoshan, whether he attacks or not, it is our chance, let's go."
Tens of thousands of riders left quietly.
The next morning.
"Tang Jun is here."
The scouts ran back desperately, and someone was counting the number of Tang soldiers at a high place.
One thousand cavalry, nine thousand infantry.
There are tens of thousands of people, and there are no boundaries.
"Tang army has one thousand cavalry, eight or nine thousand infantry!"
In the distance, there is a troop of cavalry counting the number of people.
A general said: "Tell the Khan."
Tang Jun's scouts rushed over, and the cavalry retreated quickly.
"Camp!"
Liang Jianfang's voice was very loud.
All the ministries set up camp, and Liang Jianfang took the generals to inspect the terrain of Laoshan.
"The weather is cold, we must attack Laoshan as soon as possible." Back at the camp, Liang Jianfang pointed to the map and said, "The enemy army in Laoshan can attack when they advance, and they can defend when they retreat. The key is... where is He Lu?"
This is the most critical question.
There is no answer, and the army must be cautious in every move.
"General, He Lu has escaped."
Scouts bring news.
Liang Jianfang was shocked, "This battle...is bad."
The purpose of the attack in this battle is to clean up He Lu, but if the protagonist runs away, it will be considered a failure.
"The prison mountain is now guarded by Zhu Xiegu of the Department of the Moon, leading an army of more than 10,000 people."
"More than ten thousand people!" Liang Jianfang turned his eyes, and all the generals bowed their heads.
Without He Lu, Liang Jianfang might want to kill someone at this moment, and whoever dares to make trouble will die.
"General."
Someone spoke, and everyone looked up, and it turned out to be Jia Ping'an.
Gao Deyi thinks that Jia Ping'an is a stick.
No matter how much Lao Liang is optimistic about you and takes care of you on weekdays, but at this time, even if Lao Liang's own son comes, if he doesn't deal with it properly, he will be beaten and scolded if he should.
"Speak!" Lao Liang looked like he was about to lose his temper, so don't beep at this moment, hurry up and speak.
Jia Pingan said: "General, I think He Lu didn't run far."
Everyone was surprised.
Gao Deyi felt that the young man's words were not surprising, but he had a good impression of Jia Ping'an, so he persuaded him, "The scouts may not be able to find He Lu's trace."
No proof what did you say?
But Jia Pingan said firmly: "We have 10,000 troops, if He Lu runs away, the subordinates will think that he is bringing shame on himself. His subordinates will feel that this person is not reliable, and they will not dare to fight against a weak enemy. As a leader, if you lose your courage, how can you gather people's hearts?"
Gao Deyi shook his head, "But the Tang Dynasty was at its peak, and He Lu knew it all. He fled cowardly..."
"That's not what the leader did." Jia Pingan has been analyzing the problem from the perspective of human nature, rather than some illusory excuses.
But the most fundamental reason is that the reason why He Lu ran continuously in history was that the Tang army was powerful. When Su Dingfang appeared with more than ten thousand people, He Lu was excited and took the initiative to attack.
"As the leader, he must lead his army to seek victory. If he ran away after seeing our army of 10,000 people, what would He Lu's men think?"
No one is a fool, but the generals of Datang are somewhat obsessed with the mentality of invincibility after winning many times. This mentality led to the repetition of the Turkic people in the future, as well as the reversal of Silla and Datang in the later period.
Gao Deyi smiled and said: "Bingfeng of the Tang Dynasty..."
He also talked about the strength of Datang's army.
"But for food, even a rabbit dares to growl at a wolf."
This is just a metaphor.
"It's all gone."
Liang Jianfang pondered for a long time, "Regardless of whether He Lu will come or not, we must be prepared. After the repair..."
He turned his eyes and stared at Jia Pingan, "You are not ashamed to say that such a large army is staring at the prison mountain, and you lead the headquarters to defend against Zhu Xie. If something goes wrong..."
"The next official takes orders!"
Jia Pingan did not hesitate at all.
"Good man!" Gao Deyi praised: "I will just watch, if He Lu really dares to come... I will personally lead the army to kill and block the way for you."
Jia Ping'an's defense against Zhu Xiegu's headquarters is under a lot of pressure, more than ten thousand against one thousand, and if you are not careful, the whole army will be wiped out. And if the He Lu army attacked, Jia Ping'an's troops would collapse in an instant.
So Gao Deyi's words are very real and passionate.
—The old man will guard your back, you just need to rest assured!
It is everyone's wish to leave the behind to the comrades.
Then comes preparation.
Jia Ping'an asked for fifty more Mo Dao hands.
Nothing happened that night.
On the second day, a group of enemy cavalry came out of the prison mountain.
"More than three hundred people."
The scouts are eating, and they have been in constant rotation since last night.
Jia Pingan nodded.
"Alert."
In front of him, nine hundred infantry lined up.
"Will the enemy try?"
Huang Peng was beaten twenty sticks, and now he has mostly recovered, but he also likes working as a staff officer for Master Jia.
"Look." Jia Ping'an was staring at the enemy soldiers rushing out.
Three hundred riders are showing off their might.
"Crossbow arrows!" Jia Pingan didn't mean to take the initiative to attack at all.
"Crossbow... Release!"
The ratio of crossbows in the Tang army was 20%. Two hundred crossbowmen under Jia Ping'an's command fired a volley. The enemy army in front seemed to be planted in the farmer's field. Amidst the screams, more than 30 people fell down.
Note that this is the matching ratio of the crossbow, not the crossbowman.
After becoming a military soldier, you have to learn one specialty and multiple abilities. For example, the ratio of spears is one to one. In other words, a thousand people have to carry a thousand spears. And the long guns can be tied together as a raft at critical moments.
This is Datang's code of practice.
After two waves of crossbow arrows, the enemy lost more than sixty, and the rest were still charging.
"Archer..."
Within twenty steps are archers.
"Shoot the arrow!"
This wave...is really embarrassing.
The ratio of bows and arrows in the Datang Army is also one to one, that is to say, each man has a bow.
A wave of arrows rained, and the enemy found something was wrong.
Three hundred riders went out to battle, and now only half of them are left.
Datang infantry can resist cavalry, relying on crossbows, in addition to powerful Mo Daomen and spearmen.
The enemy general saw that Tang Jun was not moving, so he shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"
The shooting range of the riding bow is not as good as that of the Datang bow and arrow. This is where the enemy is most depressed.
"Shoot the arrow!"
There is another wave of crossbowmen who can be withdrawn.
"Retreat!"
The enemy general had already died under the crossbow. Someone ran away first, and the enemy army was in chaos.
"Strike!"
Jia Ping'an ordered Ma Jun to attack, but he didn't follow.
He is looking at Yamaguchi.
The battle report was obtained in the rear.
"General, the enemy's army attacked with three hundred cavalry. Our army responded and killed more than two hundred enemies."
"The real mother is Yeye's favorite Xiao Jia!" Liang Jianfang said with a smile: "Stable!"
He is looking ahead.
Where is He Lu?
If he escaped from far away, then his expedition will be regarded as a failure.
That's why he agreed with Jia Ping'an's suggestion and led the army to wait.
He Lu left as soon as he left, but what if he was around?
And farther away, Qibi Heli heard the news from the messenger, and said gloomyly: "Liang Jianfang's troops defeated the enemy's rangers, but He Lu fled, and only Zhu Xiegu's troops of more than 10,000 were standing guard." Prison Mountain."
A general said: "General, then our army should rush out and attack Laoshan together."
Qibi He Li shook his head, "Liang Jianfang told me to wait."
"What does he mean? Worried that I will steal the credit?"
The emotions of his subordinates were a little excited, and Qibi He Li frowned and said: "Who is Liang Jianfang? How could this be? He said that He Lu might be nearby, and if he starts to scare the snake, He Lu will run away."
"Is this impossible?"
Doubts are spreading in everyone's hearts.
…
The first trial was defeated, and the dozens of riders who came back looked embarrassed.
"The enemy army has no more than a thousand soldiers, with nine hundred infantry, and they were completely defeated, which shows their cowardice." Zhu Xiegu said with a straight face, "How can cowardice win?"
A general said: "Someone was going to surrender to the Tang people, but he was caught when he went out privately."
Zhu Xie's lonely eyes became colder, "Whip... to death!"
Amidst the screams, Zhu Xiegu got up, his eyes were sharp, "Our army has more than 10,000 troops, and Ashina Helu is on the periphery, so, as long as our army defeats the enemy's forward, the main force of the enemy army will naturally come to help, congratulations!" Lu is not stupid, he will attack immediately."
"Pick up your morale!"
Zhu Xiegu said: "That consolation envoy, Noisy, has been killed by me. Where is his head?"
"The head has been tanned."
Zhu Xieguzhu held the handle of the knife, and said with a cruel smile: "Hang it out, anger Tang Jun, and then attack. I want the head of Tang Jun's general as a chamber pot."
When the head was hung high by the branches, more than ten thousand cavalry were cheering and screaming.
"take it out!"
Zhu Xiegu smiled very comfortably.
A troop of cavalry rushed out of the pass, planted branches in the field beside them, and started laughing wildly.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Tang Jun is investigating.
"Joining the army is the head."
A human head is a human head, but whose head is this?
Jia Ping'an was still puzzled, and the enemy soldiers began to shout: "This is Shan Daohui's head!"
Someone climbed up to a high place, urinated on the head, and laughed wildly.
"Joining the army is to recruit Shan Daohui."
Shan Daohui was killed by the rebellious Zhu Xie Guzhu, that's all, but the head was so humiliated.
Jia Pingan's face was livid, and after taking a deep breath, he ordered: "Be alert, the enemy is coming."
This is the aggressive method, he knows, but the anger is still uncontrollable.
The infantry quickly deployed.
Zhu Xiegu waited for news in the mountain pass.
"The Tang army lined up, but did not attack."
Zhu Xie murmured lonely, "The Tang army has a thousand men, and the generals are timid, so... they attacked and drowned them with men and horses."
"Strike!"
At the mountain pass, countless cavalry rushed out.
"The entire enemy army is attacking!"
Amidst the screams, the three captains all looked at Jia Pingan.
At this moment, asking for help is the best choice, and no one can make irresponsible remarks.
One thousand against more than ten thousand, how to resist?
"Ready to meet the enemy!"
Jia Ping'an ordered, and everyone was awe-inspiring.
This means that they are not prepared to call in reinforcements.
Liang Jianfang got the news and sent someone to question him.
"The general said that if something is wrong, you can back off."
If the enemy breaks through the line of defense, it must be someone who has died in battle!
Burn!
The sergeant who came to pass the news turned red, and went back and said, "Jia Canjun said that he is here, and the enemy cannot advance an inch!"
Deputy Manager Gao Deyi said emotionally: "General, please order me to reinforce Jia Ping'an."
"I beg your orders!"
"General, let's attack."
Liang Jianfang looked ahead, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Whether He Lu is in front, if he is, the enemy's entire army attacks, this is his chance, he will make a surprise attack. If he is not... naturally everything will stop. But... if the opportunity is missed, the old man will not be willing."
Gao Deyi said: "But Jia Ping'an has one against ten..."
Isn’t Liang Jianfang optimistic about Jia Ping’an? But why put him in such a desperate situation?
Liang Jianfang said indifferently: "On the battlefield, the old man only has the enemy in his eyes."
Only when the relatives do not recognize each other can they triumph on the battlefield.
But Liang Jianfang glanced behind.
Xiao Jia!
…
"Crossbow... Release!"
The two waves of crossbow arrows caused heavy casualties.
But the scale of the enemy army of more than 10,000 people is just a drop in the ocean.
"The crossbowman retreats and shoots arrows continuously." This is Datang's way of killing the enemy.
Ahead, the enemy army hits.
"Get in!"
Zhu Xiegu shouted: "Tang has few soldiers, so we can defeat them with one blow!"
The array of hundreds of infantry was silent at the moment.
Li Jingye gripped the handle of Mo Dao tightly, feeling his blood boil.
"kill!"
The spearman in front struggled to assassinate.
A spearman was knocked into the air and fell in front of Li Jingye. His mouth opened, he was spitting out blood, he stretched out his hand... and then his hand dropped, his eyes darkened.
Li Jingye only felt a shock in his heart.
This is the battlefield.
Different from the first battle, this is the real battlefield.
Datang faced the superior enemy countless times, and whenever it encountered difficulties, it was the infantry who carried it.
But every time they did not disappoint Datang.
The commanding team in front is screaming: "Assassination!"
The spearmen struggled to assassinate, and a wave of crossbow arrows flew past behind them, stagnating the morale of the enemy army.
"Tang Jun resisted!"
Zhu Xieguzhu's eyes widened, and he cursed: "Those Tang people have already suffered heavy casualties, kill them, the spearmen can't withstand the continuous impact, don't stop!"
He said confidently; "Don't stop after dispelling the Tang army, charge all the way until you meet the main force of the Tang army."
"kill!"
The enemy army is getting more and more crazy.
The spearman's repeated assassinations took a lot of physical strength.
When a spearman was unable to assassinate and was knocked into the air by the enemy, Jia Pingan ordered: "Mo Dao Shou!"
This is the killer feature.
"There is an order to join the army, Mo Dao stepped forward!"
Li Jingye felt hot all over and shouted, "Get out of the way!"
The spearmen in front dodged out of the way, and Li Jingye rushed out first.
Yiqi just stepped forward, and what the enemy saw was a thick and outrageous Tang Jun.
Mo Dao waved.
The enemy only felt the flash of the knife, and immediately the head flew up.
"Be fierce!"
This is Jia Pingan's explanation to Li Jingye before the war.
If Mo Dao is not fierce, he is no different from a spearman.
"kill!"
Mo Dao cut again.
The huge horse's head was cut off with a single knife, and the enemy on horseback fell.
"Come forward!"
Li Jingye keeps advancing, even if there are no comrades on the left and right, he still keeps moving forward.
Blood spurted on his body, he struggled to open his eyes, and the thick blood dripped slowly from above the eyelids.
"kill!"
He swung his knife vigorously and killed the enemy on the right with one blow.
This murderer!
"The Tang army is brave!"
Zhu Xiegu heard the sound and looked over, cursing: "Siege and kill him!"
The enemy army began to move closer to Li Jingye.
"Dedication!"
Someone shouted anxiously behind, but Li Jingye didn't look back.
"kill!"
He kept swinging the knife, and the corpses of the men and horses gradually piled up.
He unexpectedly found himself unable to move forward.
The corpses were piled up in front of him, and he jumped over.
He was beheaded by Li Jingye in mid-air.
"Avoid him!"
The enemy army was frightened by him and walked around from both sides.
The front is stalemate, the Tang army keeps charging, and the enemy keeps assaulting.
"How?" Liang Jianfang asked.
He Lu still didn't show up, but he didn't dare to slack off.
"Still fighting, our infantry is working hard."
…
"Assassination!"
The spearmen continued to assassinate, and the enemy repeatedly charged and killed, but the formation of the Tang army was like a rock, not moving at all.
"Retreat!"
Zhu Xiegu knew that it was time to retreat, but it was not a retreat, but a retreat to recuperate.
Later, the highest record of the Koreans attacking the Datang pawns was three times, and the Tang army array did not move!
This is the first time.
The enemy retreats.
"Look at how the Tang army is doing, are you going to pursue it?" Zhu Xie was staring at the generals of the Tang army.
"Trimming."
Jia Ping'an's order is very simple.
Tang Jun began to treat the wounded, check weapons, and move supplies.
"The Tang army is not chaotic at all." Zhu Xie Guzhu sneered and said: "Interesting, get ready, and charge again after a rest."
Jia Ping dismounted and strode over. Li Jingye came over with a Mo Dao in his hand, and said joyfully, "Brother, I beheaded more than ten people."
This brave kid!
Jia Ping'an slapped his helmet, "Did someone push you forward?"
He asked Li Jingye to be more aggressive, not to let him go it alone.
Morale is not bad, but the enemy army is so numerous that the Tang army sees no hope of victory.
Fortunately, there is a large army sitting behind.
On the opposite side, Zhu Xiegu was cheering up his subordinates: "The Tang army has less than a thousand people, and their main force is 9,000 people in front, but what are they waiting for? They are defending He Lu. So as long as this Tang army is defeated, the battle will be completed. Must win."
He said with red eyes: "In the previous command, the generals of the Tang Army were well-behaved, but he didn't know the bravery of our warriors from the Moon Department. Let's go out and drown the Tang Army with the corpses of men and horses."
"kill!"
The enemy attacked again.
"Crossbow..."
Crossbow arrows flew, and the enemy screamed and fell off the horse.
Boom!
This time, the spear array was tested immediately.
The enemy troops continued to charge, and the spearmen tried their best to assassinate, but sporadic enemy troops rushed in from time to time, and were immediately beheaded by the Mo Daomen.
"Join the army, and the pikemen lose a lot."
The spearman lost 20%, in this era, it can be called the end of a rout.
But Tang Jun is different.
"Hold on."
Jia Ping'an was not moved at all.
The horn sounded suddenly.
"It's He Lu!"
A black line appeared in the distance.
Liang Jianfang shook his body, "Go and tell Qi Bi He Li that He Lu is here."
He looked back at the direction of the mountain pass, and at this moment he couldn't care about this side anymore.
Xiao Jia...
Hold on tight!
Arrow rain flew over, but the enemy cavalry still didn't stop.
The follow-up jumping soldiers are on standby, and behind them is the supply team.
He has no way out.
Zhu Xieguzhu was overjoyed when he saw Tang Jun's embarrassment, "Tang Jun is exhausted, the whole army attacks."
This is the decisive battle.
Zhu Xiegu is determined to win!
The enemy army is coming crazily.
Jia Pingan stared at the enemy's speed, and suddenly ordered: "Let's jump and attack."
Is this all-or-nothing?
The jumping soldiers rushed up with spears in their hands, and a wave of assassinations actually slowed down the enemy's speed.
"Prepare!"
Jia Pingan ordered.
A hundred armored cavalry put on horses.
This is Datang's greatest threat to the enemy - the armored cavalry!
Put on armor, like an iron man and an iron horse. Before the technology of the Central Plains was spread to the outside world on a large scale, before the artisans were not taken away on a large scale, this was Datang's nuclear weapon.
Jia Pingan raised his hand.
Flag forward!
"Strike!"
A hundred cavalry rushed out.
Zhu Xie Guzhu saw it, and he ordered: "Intercept the enemy cavalry!"
He didn't know how powerful the Tang Dynasty's armored cavalry was. When Jia Pingan rushed in first, Zhu Xiegu's complexion changed drastically.
Jia Pingan swooped down on the enemy army with a sword, raised his head with his hand, and roared: "Wan Sheng!"
A Bao stood up and hissed vigorously.
Tang Jun cheered, "Wan Sheng!"
"Tang army infantry is charging!"
Before Zhu Xiegu's order was issued, the Tang army's infantry went crazy.
Mo Daomen moved forward step by step, and each step could arouse countless blood splatters.
No one is afraid.
Nobody flinched.
Those eyes were full of fanaticism.
"This is Datang?"
Zhu Xieguzhu, who was fighting the Great Tang army for the first time, looked pale.
Just like the leaders of countless alien races in the future, he trembled all over, regretting his mistakes!
…
Ask for votes!
