Chapter 1715: Women are not allowed to be men

Lu Dongzan, who had not believed in evil, immediately felt that he could not blame Daguri for his mistakes as soon as the war started.

This is not a defeated general, it is clearly a super elite force!

Lu Dongzan attacked from three sides at the same time, but his troops were halfway up, and the Tang army on the hill was unmoved. It was not until his troops reached two-thirds that the Tang army began to launch an attack.

The archers covered the infantry charge, and the three commanders took the battle in person. Each team cooperated very well. It can be seen that they were not afraid. Facing so many enemies, there was no panic at all, and they fought with rules and regulations, which surprised Lu Dongzan.

He also quickly understood why so many people could not capture this mountain.

First of all, there were too many corpses on the hillside. The Tang army launched an attack when their soldiers crossed these corpses.

Secondly, archers, the Tang army's archers are stronger than you, and they are condescending, and their range is much further than you, which can protect their teammates from charging well. Moreover, the Tang army's archers are not standing still. They also press forward with the infantry and shoot in a round, and then take a few steps forward. During the walk, they take the bow and arrow, and when they stop, they immediately shoot.

The Tubo archers were hiding behind, with shield soldiers in front of them, and their terrain was low, and their vision was not as good as the Tang army. There were buddies in front of them, so it was difficult to see clearly the situation ahead. Their arrows basically landed behind the Tang army archers. This is why the Tang army had been fighting for so long and seemed to be unable to use up the arrows, because the battles happened above the mountain, and it was enough to pick them up after the battle. There were also those sent by the enemy. Every time they fought, the arrows were twice as many as they were killed.

The Tang army archers never shoot in front of them, they ignore them at all, and concentrate on shooting in the back. The bow and arrow are throwing arcs. I just need to shoot in the pile of people.

Of course, the people in front were left to the infantry to solve the problem. They stayed here to kill people. The strategies and tactics had no much to do with them. This led to the Tubo soldiers not only fighting when facing the Tang army's charge, but also paying attention to their feet. What's more important is that later, the screams of their companions always came, which made them feel very panicked.

Finally, the mountain is conical, and the higher it goes, the smaller the range. Although Tubo has the advantage in its military strength, there can only be so many people standing in this circle. The ones in front will die and the ones in the back can be filled.

The Tang army was always one-on-one, without saying that one faced two.

The combat effectiveness of the Tang army, especially in the early Tang Dynasty, was really not a big deal, because the Tang people were very martial, and many literati were willing to be generals. However, the culture of the Tang Dynasty was very prosperous, so the quality of these soldiers was high, such as the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, either beggars or hooligans. How could such an army win a battle?

The Tang Dynasty was the strongest dynasty in Chinese history that combined civil and military affairs, so the subsequent Jiedushi was in chaos, because most Jiedushi were both civil and military, with both military and military control and administration. The Song Dynasty had a developed culture, but its military was poor, and the Han Dynasty had a stronger military, but its culture was still in the process of forming.

Tens of thousands of troops were below, but they just couldn't catch the hill.

In just half an hour, Lu Dongzan ordered Jin to withdraw his troops.

The cheers of Tang army immediately came from the top of the mountain.

It’s not that they can’t conquer them, but Lu Dongzan believes that the loss of this battle is too great, and it is actually impossible to deal with it. The father and son spent so long here to fight for their breath. Because it was these three people who ambushed them at the beginning, and now they are trapped on the mountain, and they must have wanted to avenge their previous shame, but they didn’t conquer them, which is even more embarrassing, so they continue to fight.

After all, Lu Dongzan was young and energetic. When he saw the situation, he would rather not fight. He ordered a general and 10,000 soldiers to surround the three of them here, just to trap them to death. He also ordered: "These three people cannot be kept. When they are out of ammunition and food, they will definitely choose to charge. You must kill all these three people for me. If one person escapes, I will ask you."

"I will obey the order."

Just then, a sentry came.

"Report to the Prime Minister, a large army suddenly came from the Heyuan area."

"Did the Tang army reinforcements arrive?"

Lu Dongzan said in surprise.

"Feeling at their clothes, they should be Tuyuhun's troops."

Lu Dongzan was relieved when he heard this. It turned out that his subordinates had lost their power. That would be great, so he would not have to go there again. He asked, "How many of them are there?"

“Many, many, many, countless.”

This answer made Lu Dongzan almost draw his sword to cut the sentry, and he said angrily: "No, I don't know how many soldiers there are in Tuyuhun? What are you missing? I think you are deliberately trying to disrupt the morale of the army."

"The villain dares not, this is true. The army has no fewer troops than ours."

Of course, Lu Dongzan knew that this person dared not lie to him, but he really couldn't understand. When did Tuyuhun have so many troops, he couldn't help but frown and think.

Daguri immediately said, "Father, it's better for the child to go and see it in person."

Lu Dongzan nodded.

After a short while, Daguri finally returned. "Father, there is really a huge army coming towards us, and it is not the Tang army, but the Tuyuhun people."

Lu Dongzan heard this and said nothing.

"Father, we have to prepare quickly." Daguri gasped.

Lu Dongzan shook his head and said, "It seems that Princess Honghua has come out in full bloom this time. If this is the case, they will definitely come with the determination to fight us. If they fight with them at this time, it will be unfavorable for our army, and they will come out in full bloom and be weak afterwards. When they are exhausted, we can defeat them in one fell swoop."

I have said so much, and to summarize it, I just want to withdraw it.

The Tubo army immediately retreated to Bailan Mountain.

Wang Fangyi, Zhao Chiman, Wang Xuance and other Tang army soldiers on the top of the mountain were stunned. Why did the Tubo army all retreat?

"General, how can the enemy retreat?"

"Is it a trick to lure the enemy?"

Wang Xuance shook his head and said, "I don't think it looks like us. Just a few of us, they don't want to mobilize our troops to lure us down the mountain. I think something must have happened?"

"Then let's run away."

A soldier said excitedly.

All of this survived, it was so exciting.

Wang Fangyi said: "Don't act rashly for the time being, let's take a look."

As the evening approached, I saw thick dust rolling in the north, and a huge team was pressing over, and there were countless people.

The Tang army soldiers on the top of the mountain were all stunned. They stood on a high place and looked so spectacular.

After a while, a vanguard came to the foot of the mountain. A few people came up to the mountain and shouted from afar: "The ones above are Wang Xuance and Wang Fangyi?"

Wang Fangyi replied: "That's right, who are you?"

"It's great. We are Tuyuhun people. We are here to support you on the order of the Queen."

Wang Xuance was surprised when he heard this, "This is impossible. How can Tuyuhun have so many troops?"

Wang Fangyi shouted: "I wonder who is leading the army?"

"It is our queen who leads the army himself."

Just then, a crisp and beautiful voice was heard, "Two Generals Wang and Governor Zhao, are you still safe?"

Wang Fangyi looked at him and saw a general wearing silver armor walking up the mountain while waving his hands at them.

It is Princess Honghua.

Wang Fangyi was overjoyed and said, "It's Princess Honghua, brothers, we are saved."

The Tang army soldiers were so happy that they couldn't help themselves. Some people covered their faces and fell to the ground crying. Some people were excited to knock their heads on the ground, and some people hugged each other and cried.

It can be seen that they are not afraid of death, but some things must be worthy of life in their hearts.

Wang Fangyi took the lead in front of Princess Honghua, "The last general Wang Fangyi met Princess Honghua."

Princess Honghua hurriedly stepped forward and helped Wang Fangyi up and said, "General is safe, Honghua is at ease."

Wang Fangyi said curiously again: "I will take the liberty to ask, who are they?"

Princess Honghua said proudly: "They are all good men of me, Tuyuhun."

Lu Dongzan was right. Here are almost all the men in Tuyuhun, as young as fourteen or five years old, as old as sixty years old, and all kinds of styles.

At the beginning, Li Zhi decided to give up Tuyuhun, mainly to protect the northwest, because in his opinion, Tuyuhun is a vassal state after all, and the northwest is already his own territory. Even if it is a land area, Tuyuhun cannot be compared with the northwest, so this is not difficult to choose.

But this choice is actually very wrong. Tuyuhun is the throat. If it is lost, it will be impossible to defend the northwest. Every time I send troops to the northwest, I have to pass under the nose of Tubo. This is why Li Shimin had to take down the place even if he tried his best. But Li Zhi cannot blame him. The commander went out and a group of civil officials surrounded him.

Of course, Princess Honghua also received a letter from Li Zhi. After all, she was the Princess of the Tang Dynasty. Of course, she knew what Li Zhi was thinking, but she was also a hero among women, not an ordinary woman. She was not as good as a woman, and she was not willing to be a slave to the country.

She knew that Wang Fangyi and his friends had resisted stubbornly in front of her, and made a quick decision and called on all the men in Tuyuhun to get on the horse, and followed her to fight against Tubo to the death, and asked the women to take the children to the border. If they were defeated, they would flee back to the Tang Dynasty.

After the past two years of development, Princess Honghua has a far higher prestige here than her husband, and the queen is leaping on horseback. If a man dares not get on the horse, will he still have the face to meet people?

In addition, Tuyuhun is also a nomadic people, and people are going to fight for horses.

So they brought all their belongings and rushed over to fight against Tubo. They had no logistics or strategy, and they were just going to fight with Tubo.

You hit my house again and again, it's unbearable. The only thing I can do is to fight you with a kitchen knife.

But how could Lu Dongzan, this old fox, fight against Tuyuhun? What is my life, what is your life? Are you worthy? If Li Zhi comes to fight for his life, he can still consider it.

Wang Fangyi, Wang Xuance, Zhao Chiman and a group of Tang army soldiers were ashamed when they heard this. Of course, they were not ashamed of themselves, but for their emperor. Looking at the princess Honghua, they were not afraid and came out in full swing. If Li Zhi had increased their troops earlier, they would not have fought to this point. Moreover, their elite troops were completely lost, with more than 20,000 elite troops, and now there are only more than 3,000 left.

Princess Honghua asked again: "By the way, three generals, where are the enemy?"

Wang Fangyi said: "If you go back to the princess, the enemy has just retreated."

Princess Honghua said, "That's great. The three generals have no choice but to repay Tuyuhun's great kindness. The three generals should go back to their country quickly and leave it to me."

In this case, she did not think she was a princess or a queen, but a woman who defended her home.

Wang Fangyi hurriedly said: "The princess fights against Tubo?"

Princess Honghua snorted coldly and said, "He bullied people too much. We can't bear it anymore. Today we will make a decision with him."

Wang Fangyi knew her intention. This army looked spectacular, but in fact, it was mixed with fish and dragons, and its combat effectiveness was definitely not as good as that of the Tubo army. Therefore, Princess Honghua must have wanted to take advantage of this momentum to fight against Tubo. If this momentum retreated, they must not be the opponent of Tubo. However, Lu Dongzan did not choose to fight with her here, but retreated immediately. It can be seen that Lu Dongzan also knew that Princess Honghua was just a wave of things. As long as it was blocked, it would be victory. He hurriedly said: "No, no, Princess, the matter has not reached this point yet. Your Highness should not act recklessly. I think Your Majesty is definitely withdrawing from Liaodong. Our reinforcements will arrive soon."

Princess Honghua frowned when she heard this. She knew Li Zhi's character so well that she might not have sent reinforcements.

Wang Xuance said: "Your Highness, Lu Dongzan just saw that the princess came down and immediately withdrew his troops. It can be seen that he wanted to avoid his edge. He would definitely not fight with us. He must have chosen to defend the natural danger of Bailan Mountain. Their troops are not weaker than us, and they have the advantage of the terrain. It is difficult for us to defeat them. Now we should withdraw back to the Heyuan area and rectify the troops and wait for him to attack. If he doesn't come, we will be considered to have taken back the Heyuan area. If he comes, then in a decisive battle with it, our chances of victory will be higher."
