The cavalry wall rolled forward rumblingly, and the cavalry under Luo Shixin didn't need to deliberately stab anyone. As long as they were level with the horses and aligned with the Turkic cavalry rushing over, someone would be killed by their spears. The five cavalry walls swept by like a gale.
Wherever they went, the Turkic cavalry were picked off their horses one after another, and their guns pointed at them, and there were dead bodies all over the place.
All the soldiers of the Fuli Army understood that the five hundred cavalrymen of the Tang Army were definitely not to be trifled with.
They wanted to quit, but it was too late.
At this time, the hooked and sickle cavalry under Luo Shixin's command seemed to be like the combine harvesters of later generations, leaving no blade of grass wherever they passed.The only difference is that the combine harvester harvests crops, while the hook and sickle cavalry harvest life.
After just one round of collision, Ashina Helu's subordinates were ready to herd sheep.
Goshunur, who was preparing to rescue Luo Shixin, looked at this scene as if he had seen a ghost. He stammered and looked at Ashina Gushe and said, "Tangren... Tangren is... so powerful?"
Ge Shunur originally thought that Tang Jun's strength was its excellent armor, but he never thought that Tang Jun's combat effectiveness was so terrifying.
Luo Shixin led five hundred personal guards and roared past, leaving behind a lot of dead bodies and unowned horses on the battlefield.
A Burke under Ashina Helu's command yelled frantically: "The people of Tang know magic tricks!"
Burke is an official position set up by the Turks. Unlike Ye Hu, Shi Khan, and Special Service, this official position is not hereditary, but needs to be directly appointed by the Great Khan or the Little Khan, just like the county officials in the Tang Dynasty.In Turkic, Burke roughly means an officer.
It's no wonder that this kind of Burke yelled so loudly, because the bows and arrows in their hands shot at the soldiers of the Tang army.
Under the acceleration of the horses, the sharp hook and sickle guns often hooked the arms or heads, or even the waists of some Turkic soldiers, and these Turkic cavalrymen who were charging lost their arms and heads instantly.
"Sorcery! Tang people know sorcery!" A Burke rode his horse and fled. This cowardly act infected the entire army like a plague. Everyone was screaming and galloping wildly, trying to escape from the terrifying Tang army. Thousands of troops were crushed by fear in an instant!
Luo Shixin shook his head, laughed loudly and said, "If you don't fight, the rogues are better than you!"
Ashina Gu set to the soldiers beside him: "Go ahead and kill me, remember to bring back the head!"
The soldiers of the Geshu tribe blushed with excitement, and cheered loudly when they saw this. The horses spread out like a gust of wind, and the feathers and arrows were like slanting rain, shooting at the fleeing Ashina Helu knights. The backs of the army were poured out, and many cavalrymen of the Ashina Helu Knights were shot into hedgehogs in a flash. Thrilling.
The bows of these Geshubu knights were all bought from Chen Ying with cattle, sheep or horses. fall.
The knights of the Geshu tribe chased after the defeated army, pouring out the rain of arrows to their heart's content. The cavalrymen of the Ashinahelu tribe who were shot fell to the ground like fallen leaves swept by the autumn wind. Once they fell, they had no chance to stand up again up.
Being disturbed by them, Ashina Helu's knights fled faster and more fiercely, and they were already defeated.
There are many people with only one thought left in their empty minds: escape, the farther the better!
However, where can they escape to?
In the only direction where they could retreat, Zhang Huaiwei led the soldiers of the Modao Army, and they were already ready for battle.
The Mo Dao was like a wall, and the heads of the Ashina Helu knights who had collapsed were rolling, and blood flowed like a river.
Ma Zhou, who followed Chen Ying to watch the battle for the first time, saw the knights of Ashina and Helu tribe being surrounded by the knights of Luo Shixin and Geshu tribe with less and more, like driving dogs and sheep, with no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth, he was inexplicably emotional, sighed.
Chen Ying turned his head to look at him, and said solemnly: "There is no need to sympathize with them, they have treated us like this before."
Ma Zhou smiled wryly and said, "That's exactly what I'm feeling... Back then, how many of our soldiers were surrounded by them on the prairie. It's their turn, they deserve it!"
Ashina Gushe looked at this scene, but he didn't show any excitement. Instead, his complexion was pale and he was silent.
Tens of thousands of soldiers from the Anxi Army of the Tang State had already appeared on the battlefield. They did not join the battle, but watched coldly from the outside. At this time, Ashina Gushe's head gradually became chaotic. his nerves.
Half an hour later, the dead and wounded soldiers of Ashina Helu had covered the battlefield, and the survivors were surrounded, like a flock of sheep surrounded by wild wolves in a sheepfold. The cavalry huddled together, knee to knee , looking terrified and desperate.
And their compatriots of the same language and race, those Turkic knights who were attached to Tang Jun Ge Shubu were still galloping around them, and deadly arrows rained down on all sides, constantly harvesting lives.
The desperate Ashinahelu riders raised their round shields to try to cover their vitals, but it was useless at all. The small round shields for cavalry are small and thin, and they may be used to protect against bone or stone arrowheads. It is somewhat useful, but it can only be in vain in the face of the fine steel arrowheads shot by the Turkic knights with strong bows and crossbows.
A hole was pierced through the small round shield with an arrow, and the arms of the riders were continuously nailed to the shield by the arrowheads penetrating through the shield, screaming in pain.They were also fighting back with their bows, but it was too late, and they couldn't use them at all due to the crowds, while their opponents had plenty of room to move, and they kept shooting arrows from five to sixty meters away. It is difficult to shoot accurately with a horse-riding bow, and the casualties caused by counterattacks to the opponent are simply out of proportion to their own casualties!
Combat has turned into carnage, and the battlefield has become a slaughterhouse.
The brutal massacre is still going on mercilessly.
Ashina Helu saw so many tribal youths fall down one after another, blood flowing like a river, the heart that he thought had been tempered hard enough was torn, and he rushed to the front of the formation without a helmet, heading 60 meters The Turkic knights who came and went and kept shooting arrows hissed: "Be merciful! We are all descendants of the Great Khan!"
However, his voice had long been covered up, and it couldn't spread very far at all.
What's more, the Turkic soldiers of Geshu tribe whose eyes were red from being irritated by the picture cake painted by Chen Ying had only one thought left in their minds, to exchange their heads for Tang Baiji.
……
The battle was won without any surprises. When all the soldiers were cheering in unison, Guo Luo suddenly walked up to Chen Ying with a letter and said, "General, I just carried an urgent letter from the Wei Army!"
Chen Ying tore open the letter, and just glanced at it, and the joy of victory brought by the Red Sand Mountain was swept away.
Seeing Chen Ying's unkind expression, Ma Zhou asked cautiously, "My lord, what happened?"
Chen Ying let out a long sigh and said, "Tibetan has sent an envoy to Chang'an!"
"Ah..." Ma Zhou was taken aback.
He has been the Chief Sima of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate for the past six years. In fact, he is also the unnamed Metropolitan Protector of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, managing more than [-] counties in the [-] prefectures of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate.Ma Zhou has long since become a qualified Tang official from an ignorant boy.
The folk customs of the Tang Dynasty were open, and the officialdom was also open.
There are some things that Li Jiancheng cannot settle with one word.
Now, Datang has just defeated the Eastern Turks, and is trying to recuperate and develop the economy.
At this time, Tubo was actually carrying 160 white camels, 120 white plateau horses, and [-] Tubo beauties, as well as [-] catties of gold, [-] buckets of agate, [-] snow leopards, and [-] black Ao Quan, went to Chang'an to ask for marriage for their Zanpu.
Now Chang'an needs peace, and the world also needs stability, but once Li Jiancheng, like Li Er in history, agrees to this marriage, the consequences will be disastrous.
Ma Zhou looked at Chen Ying and said, "Can you..."
As he spoke, Ma Zhou made a gesture of cutting his throat.
Chen Ying shook his head and said: "It's too late, there are some masters among the Tubo people, they went directly to Songzhou without anyone noticing, and asked Liu Lan, the governor of Songzhou, to send troops to enter Tubo, escort the tribute to Bashu, and enter Chang'an !"
In fact, when Liu Tong knew the news, the Tubo army had completed the handover of more than a thousand Tang soldiers under Liu Lan's command.
Under the escort of more than a thousand Tang soldiers, Liu Tong actually had the opportunity to rob this tribute trip.
It's just that neither Liu Tong nor Xun Xiang made their own decisions. After all, this is more than 1000 lives... The looting of the tribute lost the opportunity, which is the most helpless thing.
Ma Zhou said: "I'm afraid His Majesty won't be able to withstand the pressure of civil and military officials..."
Chen Ying's mood suddenly became bad.
Marriage is a disgrace to the Han people.
Chen Ying roared angrily: "How can the safety of the Tang Dynasty depend on a woman's breasts!"
