Chapter 142 Finally arrived

The heavy infantry were wearing heavy armor, carrying a hard bow, hanging on the waist, and shaved swords, and lined up in neat battle formations. Although the speed was not fast, it was as powerful as a rainbow, which made people have unstoppable ideas.

Each of them looked tired, but everyone's eyes were filled with a fierce fighting spirit, as if a hungry lion would pounce on him at any time and tear his prey to pieces.

This is a tired army, but it is a powerful army with high fighting spirit! Their fatigue is not consistent with their fighting spirit. Generally speaking, only the new army can have such a strong fighting spirit!

This is the Tang army, which has created countless brilliant Tang army in Chinese history! Only Qin Shihuang's invincible army and the powerful Han army that Emperor Wu of Han defeated the Huns can be compared with it!

The reason why they can create glory that future generations can talk about is not only because they have good training and excellent equipment, but also because they have the determination to fight to the death! As long as they need it, they can fight no matter whenever they need it! Even if they are exhausted, they will devote themselves to the battle without hesitation!

The neat footsteps merge into a majestic battle song! Every step you take will splash a wave nearly ten miles wide, and the sunset will be beautiful.

Finally, the heavy infantry raised the Mo knife in the hand and slashed it hard. As the Mo knife slashed, there was a scream and countless minced meat.

The Tubo army blocking the heavy infantry no longer exists. They have not become broken limbs and broken arms, but have become minced meat, which is real minced meat!

What I saw in front of me was not the scene of people turning around!

When our ancestors talked about the power of Modao, they used the word "break", instead of the word "dead", nor the word "destructive", nor the word "destructive", and even more so, there is a reason, because these words cannot express the power of Modao!

The heavy infantry were one by one, with only a very small gap. When the swords were chopped down, they were as dense as hemp stalks. Every Tubo soldier faced not a sword, but two, three, and even more.

The Modao itself is very heavy, reaching dozens of kilograms. After good training, heavy infantrymen are all extremely strong. Not only should they be able to "beat the armor", but they should also easily dance with the Modao. If this knife is slashed, the power can be imagined.

Two, three, and even more Modao chopped on the body at the same time. What else can Tubo soldiers besides turning into minced meat?

You should know that Tubo lacks iron, and soldiers mainly rely on leather armor to protect themselves. Leather armor is just a piece of paper for Mo Dao, and it is vulnerable. Even if they have iron armor, they can't stand it in front of Mo Dao.

Not to mention people, even if a war horse goes through this round of strikes, it will be broken into several segments.

There was even more horrifying scene, the heart was split in half, but it was still beating vigorously.

It can be said that this is the most tragic war scene in the era of cold weapons!

With one knife, the heavy infantry continued to advance without any stop. The sword in his hand was raised high again, and slashed again in a dazzling sword light, and the blocker immediately broke!

Dalan had experienced the power of heavy infantry in the Tang Dynasty. He had seen this scene a lot, but he had seen it with his own eyes that heavy infantry was harvesting the lives of Tubo soldiers like meat grinders. As the commander of the Tubo army, Dalan was still in a palpitations and his heartbeat accelerated a lot.

Tears surged in his eyes, and Daran wiped his right hand and ordered loudly: "Get away immediately and don't catch up with Mo Dao!"

The Tang Dynasty's heavy infantry was extremely powerful, and if you want to confront them head-on, you would be dying. However, heavy infantry also has a fatal weakness, that is, the speed is too slow. Once the Tubo soldiers want to distance themselves from them, the heavy infantry will not be able to use their strength even if they have the strength.

It is precisely this that the Mongolians fought in the west, relying on the flexible advantages of the Mongolian light cavalry, defeated the heavy infantry in Europe and created a miracle in the history of war.

As soon as the order was passed, the Tubo soldiers seemed to be driven by ducks, avoiding the heavy-armed stance far away. However, Cheng Xiaotian and Fei Junxing knew the advantages and disadvantages of heavy-armed infantry, so they did not make Dalan's wishful thinking succeed, and brought tens of thousands of cavalry from behind.

Under the repeated attacks of bows, arrows, horse spears and horizontal swords, the Tubo soldiers rushed back to Cheng Xiaotian and Fei Junxing like ducks. What greeted them was the shining sword light, and the ruthless Mo Dao slashed down one after another, harvesting the lives of Tubo soldiers again and again.

Under the city of Doma, he was guarding him, he actually attacked the Tang army from front to back. If Dalan had not personally experienced it, he would not believe it. It would not be possible to retreat to the city, avoid Modao's attack, and it would not be possible to get rid of the deadly cavalry of the Tang Dynasty. Dalan felt like he had eaten a fly.

"Escape! Let them escape wherever they can escape! It is important to save their lives!" Dalan gave a helpless order that he would rather wipe his neck than give as the commander.

He had no choice but to do so. If he had to take the initiative, his army would be wiped out. Staying here would be just to let them die. As long as the Tubo soldiers escaped, Ji Dezuzan would recall the army with the order, which was much stronger than to lose their lives here!

Unfortunately, the Tang army would not give him a chance! Cheng Xiaotian and Fei Junxing immediately divided the cavalry into twenty teams, each with 500 people. Their mission was not to fight, but to intercept the fleeing Tubo soldiers and drive them to the heavy infantry. As long as they rushed to the heavy infantry, everything was left to Mo Dao to deal with.

What "driving the sheep" most requires is speed. With Fei Junxing's order, his cavalry took off his armor and threw it on the ground, smashing out splashes of water. Cheng Xiaotian's cavalry was originally light-fit, so it was not necessary.

Without iron armor, the Tang army was faster. Wherever Tubo soldiers fled, a team of Tang Dynasty cavalry would appear to drive them back.

The Tubo army was already in ruins. Ten miles outside the city of Doma were filled with Tubo soldiers running around and running around. They were as anxious as dogs of a family, driving the Tang Dynasty cavalry toward the heavy infantry.

The cavalry and infantry cooperated very well. Whenever Tubo soldiers came, the Modao would sweep them to reap their lives.

Daran didn't dare to send thousands of people from the city out of the city because it was useless.

Guo Qianguan rode on the horse, commanding the advancement of heavy infantry while observing. At this speed, the Tubo army would be wiped out in a short time. There were only a few people who could escape.

When the war reached this point, the killing had lost its meaning. Guo Qianguan decided not to kill anymore and uttered a loud order: "I want them to put down their weapons and spare them from death!"

Tens of thousands of heavy infantrymen shouted in unison: "Put down your weapons and spare you all!"

As soon as they shouted, the cavalry also shouted.

The Tubo soldiers intercepted the cavalry and had already suffered a lot. When they heard this, they quickly threw down their weapons, knelt on the ground, raised their hands on their heads, and surrendered.

The remaining more than 10,000 Tubo soldiers had no fighting spirit anymore and surrendered one after another. The battlefield, which was originally screaming, immediately calmed down. Under the command of Guo Qianguan, heavy infantry surrounded and surrounded more than 10,000 surrendered troops.

Daran saw all this, his heart was like a knife, and he sighed: "Darran is incompetent, he is a misleading country and people, and he has no face to see Zamp again!"

He pulled out the scimitar from his waist and wiped it on his neck. The guards were so panicked that they hugged him: "Master, hurry up and go to the city! It will be too late!"

The battlefield situation was settled, and Cheng Xiaotian laughed and said, "Dalan, we should settle the score!" The lion, who was so excited that he seemed to be defeated, rushed up with his cavalry.

"Let go, let go!" Daran was determined to die and struggled. However, his personal guards would not listen to him, so they raised him and rushed straight toward the city gate.

The heavy infantry arrived, but Cheng Xiaotian and the others were busy cooperating and did not take care of the city gate anymore. So the personal guards were holding Dalan and rushed to the city gate easily.

Without giving instructions, the judge who was watching the truth on the top of the city ordered people to put down the suspension bridge and welcome Dalan into the city. The personal guards hugged Dalan and just crossed the suspension bridge, three Tang cavalry arrived. At this time, the suspension bridge had been set a distance, and the three cavalrymen did not care about anything else. They slapped the horses, and the horses jumped hard and went up the suspension bridge.

"Hurry, shoot the arrow!" The judge on the top of the city also reacted quickly. The arrows on the city were like rain. The three cavalry shot into hedgehogs, fell into the moat, and splashed out.

By the time Cheng Xiaotian arrived, it was too late, the suspension bridge had been pulled up and the city gate had been closed.

Cheng Xiaotian hated Dalan very much. Although Cheng Xiaotian had the upper hand in the battle yesterday, the price was not small. He had 5,000 cavalry, and now there were less than 2,000 left. If this stake was not counted on Dalan, who else could he count?

"Brothers: Get ready to attack the city!" Cheng Xiaotian gritted his teeth and was ready to be hard.

At this moment, Fei Junxing came with a breath: "The general has an order, and he wants you not to do anything randomly and withdraw your troops immediately."

"The general is really!" Cheng Xiaotian was very unwilling to accept it and followed Fei Junxing to meet Guo Qianguan.

"I've seen the Grand Marshal!" Cheng Xiaotian came closer and saluted Guo Qianguan.

Guo Qianguan looked tired and waved his hand, "Forgive it! Cheng Xiaotian, you are very smart. This battle was fought well, and he actually used the Turkic tactics."

"The Grand Marshal has been awarded too much. I have suffered heavy casualties. Please ask the Grand Marshal to punish him!" Cheng Xiaotian was extremely distressed.

The five thousand cavalry he brought out now have less than 2,000 left, with casualties of up to 60%, which is rare in the history of war. Such a high casualties ratio is no longer effective under normal circumstances, but his army can still participate in the battle, which is really good.

Guo Qianguan patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't blame yourself! Your army's casualties are high, but the results are also great! The battle between you and the Tubo army yesterday and today alone caused a great loss. The most important point is that you defeated the imperial guards sent by Tubo here so that you could not fight any more. You must know that the imperial guards are the backbone of the Tubo army. It is not easy for you to achieve such a record with tens of thousands of troops chasing them! If you know about the military affairs of Mr. Cheng, you should be proud of you!"

General Cheng refers to a generation of famous generals Cheng Wuting. Cheng Xiaotian is his grandson. Cheng Wuting has a successor to have such a flexible tactical mind.

Cheng Wuting defeated the Turks and did not dare to offend the border. The most surprising thing is that the Turks actually admired him very much and built temples for him. Before going to war, they would sacrifice him.

He has a high prestige in the army, especially the army in the north fighting against the Turks, and he admires him even more. Guo Qianguan also admires this famous general very much.

"Master, why did you arrive so soon?" Cheng Xiaotian asked what Fei Junxing wanted to ask.

Guo Qianguan laughed and said, "I arrived yesterday. At that time, there were only two thousand infantrymen around me. Before you and the Tubo people started fighting, I was afraid that you would suffer a loss, so I rushed to reinforce. Later, when I saw you using the Turkish tactics, I knew that the Tubo people had no choice but to deal with you, so I didn't come.

"The reason why I didn't come to reinforce you is that I only have two thousand people, and it doesn't work much to catch up. It's better for you to carry out the situation. I ordered that the follow-up troops come on their way. They got the order and forced their troops to force themselves to arrive one after another. Just now, there were about 30,000 people. When I was about to attack, Fei Junxing also arrived.

"The soldiers were too tired. Since Fei Junxing has arrived, he is a cavalry after all. Although he is tired, he is better than the infantry. Therefore, I delayed the attack again, allowing the soldiers to take a breath. After resting for more than an hour, the soldiers who arrived finally recovered a lot of strength before I led the army out."

Cheng Xiaotian sighed: "Master, you are here so fast! I originally thought that even if you arrive, there will be three or two days left, but I didn't expect that you will arrive yesterday."

After receiving Wang Shaohua's report, Guo Qianguan divided the Tang army into two, and the infantry advanced from the mountain road that Cheng Xiaotian passed, and the cavalry passed from the road that Chen Wanrong took. The reason why he arranged this was that infantry was conducive to steep land, and cavalry was more beneficial to the wider road. Second, cavalry was cavalry after all, and even if the distance was long, it could save a lot of trouble and not make any mistakes.

"I can arrive so quickly because you left 300 people to guard the mountain pass. Otherwise, when we arrived, the mountain pass would have been sealed off by the Tubo people." Guo Qianguan was very satisfied with Cheng Xiaotian's handling: "When we arrived, the Tubo people were fighting with the men you left behind. Once we arrived, we wiped them out."

Cheng Xiaotian not only has an extraordinary tactical mind, but also has a very meticulous heart. He knows the importance of the mountain pass, so he has only left three hundred people to guard him. This is an important reason why Guo Qianguan can arrive at such a quick time.

After a pause, Guo Qianguan continued: "The reason I stopped you from siegeing the city is because the soldiers are exhausted now. If they forcefully attack the city, there will be great casualties."

As he said, the fatigue of the Tang army was already unbearable. Yesterday, the reason why Guo Qianguan did not join the battle was because the infantry was so tired that they needed to be repaired. Since Cheng Xiaotian had no worries for the time being, why not seize this opportunity and let them rest.

Of course, in order not to expose the target, Guo Qianguan ordered the infantry to cook coldly, that is, eat the dry food they carry, drink cold water, and cook without raising the fire. He then sent out elite scouts to guard him, so the Tubo people did not find it.

Dalan fought Cheng Xiaotian with no choice yesterday, and he devoted all his attention to the battle with Cheng Xiaotian, so he had no intention of inquiring about this matter. Besides, based on his inference, it was impossible for the Tang Dynasty reinforcements to come so timely, and he didn't pay much attention.

What Tang Jun needs most now is to trim it. All of them have heavy eyelids. They want to lie on the bed immediately and sleep on him for three days and three nights. Even Guo Qianguan himself has deep eyes and a look of fatigue, and he is trying hard to support him.

"A few days of repair and wait until the soldiers recover, the military supervisor's artillery should have arrived. Once the artillery arrives, the city of Doma will be ready to be launched. It is much wiser than siege now." Guo Qianguan finished speaking, shaking and unable to stand.

Cheng Xiaotian thought he was injured, so he was shocked and hurriedly supported him: "Master, Master!"

But when Guo Qianguan snored, he fell asleep. As the commander of a large army, the pressure he was under was far beyond imagination. Guo Qianguan not only had to march, but also had to deal with military affairs and deploy the army. After a few days, he was exhausted. Now he has won a great victory. His heart is relieved and fatigue is coming, and he can't help but fall asleep.

Cheng Xiaotian and Fei Junxing carried Guo Qianguan to the tent and settled it. They fell head-on beside Guo Qianguan and fell asleep.

In the past few days, he has gone deeper alone and suffered from the city of Doma. He has to be wary of the Tubo people and prepare food and grass, and is also worried about when reinforcements will arrive. The pressure is not necessarily smaller than that of Guo Qianguan.

Fei Junxing looked at Cheng Xiaotian, shook his head, and laughed: "Boy Cheng, you are too ungrateful!" He fell shaking beside Cheng Xiaotian, making a heavy snoring sound.

During this sleep, Guo Qianguan slept for two days and two nights before he woke up. After waking up, he found Cheng Xiaotian and Fei Junxing lying next to him. He couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that the guards were really good, and they didn't even get them away.

Soon, Guo Qianguan found out that he was wrong because the guards also fell to the ground and were sleeping soundly.

Not only did Guo Qianguan sleep soundly, but there was a snoring sound in the Tang army camp, but even the Tubo soldiers on the city of Doma could hear it.

However, Dalan suffered a loss and did not dare to attack. The reason why Dalan did not dare to attack was because he knew that no matter how tired the Tang army was, as long as there was an enemy situation, he would wake up, grab weapons, and throw them into battle. This was exchanged for his bloody lesson in the past. Back then, he took advantage of the time when the Tang army was tired. Unexpectedly, when his army arrived, the Tang army, who was sleeping soundly, jumped up and grabbed the weapons and threw them into battle. It was very powerful and almost wiped out his entire army.

Furthermore, although the Tang army needed repairs in great importance, it still did not take it lightly and was very cautious. If it was a sneak attack, it would be a problem whether the Tubo army could get close.

The next day after Guo Qianguan woke up, the artillery soldiers led by Chen Wanrong finally arrived. After two days of rest, the Tang army's physical strength had almost recovered. It can be said that everything was ready, and only Chen Wanrong's artillery soldiers were not allowed to arrive.

As soon as he received the news, Guo Qianguan was very excited and hurriedly brought the generals to greet him.

However, a scene that they could not have imagined happened. As soon as they met, Chen Wanrong only said one sentence, "We have finally arrived!" He staggered, fell to the ground, and started to snore.

Not only Chen Wanrong fell asleep, but Ge Shuhan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's here! It's here! It's finally here!" He fell asleep leaning against the cannon.

Hundreds of artillery soldiers were exhausted, their eyes were deep and their steps were floating, and they fell to the ground one after another, making snoring sounds.

Guo Qianguan knew that they were overworked, smiled and shook his head, picked up Chen Wanrong, and accidentally found blood on Chen Wanrong's shoulders. He hurriedly lifted up Chen Wanrong's clothes, and saw that Chen Wanrong's shoulders were bloody and blood was leaking outwards.

"Hurry! Look at the soldiers' shoulders!" Guo Qianguan hurriedly ordered.

Although the generals were puzzled, they still untied the artillery's shoulders and looked at them. Their shoulders were worn out and blood could not be oozed out. The flesh and blood were connected and sticky.

The generals' noses were sore and tears were shining in their eyes.

Looking at the cannons, Guo Qianguan wiped his tears: "A man who is fighting!"
Chapter completed!
