Chapter 60: Big Break Ha Catch (Part 2) (2)

Tian Renwan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and couldn't help but sucked in cold air: "This Hacha is really sinister. Fortunately, all the generals are clear-headed and not fooled. What should I do?"

He was originally a general of the Anxi Protectorate, and he had been considered a battle of many battles, but he had no knowledge of Rubing Bright, so he had to accept it. If he was the chief general of this battle, he might have ordered the heavy infantry of the Tang army to attack the camp. The consequences would be unimaginable, and it would be a pity for one's own thoughts.

Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "He dig, we dig too!"

"We're digging too?" Tian Renwan didn't understand Chen Wanrong's intention, and his eyes hit the ground.

Geshuhan, Gao Xianzhi, Feng Changqing, Wang Zhongsi and Yang Sixu looked at Chen Wanrong, and gave a thumbs up at the same time, praising: "I'm so calculating! I have ambition!"

They actually played the puzzle, and the generals couldn't understand it. It was Tian Renwan who asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Geshuhan explained to him: "We are also here to dig a pit, not to surround Hachazhi, but to annihilate him. Our troops are as strong as Hachazhi's. If we want to encircle and annihilate him, it is impossible to defeat him at most. If we use some means, we can still encircle him."

Everyone suddenly realized and praised in unison: "The military supervisor has a great idea!"

As soon as the order was passed, the Tang army drove out, arranged around the Dashi Army camp, and acted as if they were to attack at any time. Immediately afterwards, the people of Samarkand came out with tools and began to dig trenches.

The Dashi was unpopular in this area. When the people of Samarkand heard that they wanted to annihilate them, they were all happy to dig trenches. Especially those believers, whether they were Buddhists or Shamanists, they forced the Dashi to believe in Muslims, and were most unwilling to accept it.

The monks wore cassocks, held Zen staffs, and brought tools to help, and Wei was a wonder.

Let’s talk about Hacha. He originally thought that the Tang army was not clear about the matter and would inevitably launch an attack as soon as the sky was dawn. Then he could use the fortifications in the camp to deal with the Tang army, first defeat the heavy infantry of the Tang army, preferably severely defeated, and then attacked and turned defeat into victory. However, he did not know that the Tang army generals had telescopes. Although he dug the earth walls and trenches where he could not see them, he still discovered the Tang army.

The Tang army did not attack, and the Tang army did not attack. The countless people helped dig trenches. They couldn't help but wonder: "What are the Tang army doing?"

Not only did he wonder, but even Gu Taibai and Muhammad were puzzled. The two came to visit. After the ceremony, Gu Taibai asked directly: "Sir, the Tang army does not attack, they only dig trenches. What do they want to do?"

Mohamed frowned and asked, "Sir, it's not that Tang Jun wants to surround us here, right?"

"Have you read "Sun Tzu"?" Hacha had a disbelief expression and quoted the words in "Sun Tzu": "If you want to surround it, if you want to attack it, if you want to fight it, if you want to divide it, if you want to escape it, if you want to avoid it. Their troops are as strong as ours, it is impossible to surround us."

Gu Taibai was even more strange: "What are they doing? It looks like they want to fight but don't fight, which makes people confused."

Although Hacha was extremely smart, he would not have thought that the Tang army wanted to use trenches to surround them. This cannot be blamed on Hacha. The military level at that time had not yet developed to that level. It had happened many times in history, but it had not been possible to surround the enemy with equal strength.

The Changping War is a classic example of encircling and annihilation of the enemy with equal forces. It was also completed under the conditions of complex terrain. It is impossible to surround the enemy in Samarkand.

Besides, although Hacha has some understanding of Chinese history, he cannot have such profound attainments.

Hacha himself couldn't understand the purpose of Tang Jun, so he could only say: "Wait first and see. If it is not good, we will just take it away."

The troops of both sides are equal, and it is very simple to withdraw. At most, it is to win a battle for the Tang army, and there is no danger of annihilation. Not to mention, Hacha only has absolute confidence in his army and can withdraw according to his plan.

Chen Wanrong and the others mobilized the Tang army to set up a formation, and they were afraid that Hacha would just withdraw immediately. As long as Hacha didn't retreat, the possibility of annihilation would be greater.

Hacha's hesitation gave the Tang army a rare opportunity. The people worked hard to dig trenches. After more than a day, the first trenches took shape. Then, they began to dig the second trenches. By night, the second trenches were formed again.

It was a sleepless night, and the people took turns to fight without rest. By dawn the next day, five trenches had already been dug. Although the five trenches could not completely prevent the Dashi army from escaping, at least they had taken initial form, Chen Wanrong and the others were very relieved.

After dawn, Hacha stood at a high place, and saw the movements outside the camp, and couldn't help but frown together. He had already had bad signs in his heart. Although this style of playing had not appeared yet, with his cleverness, he would not be able to see that if Tang Jun dug dozens of trenches, the possibility of his breakthrough would be greatly reduced.

At this moment, Gu Taibai and Muhammad came. Gu Taibai said worriedly: "Sir, I see that Tangren is not kind-hearted. If they dig like this, if they dig dozens of roads, we may not even have retreat. Sir, we should retreat."

"Sir, retreat quickly. If you don't retreat, it will be too late!" Mohammed was very anxious.

Hacha sighed and said, "Since I joined the army, I have been invincible in the battle, and I have never encountered such an intractable opponent. The Tang people are so cunning. With the same force, they actually have a way to surround us. I have seen it. Muhammad, you lead the army to fight westward, tear a hole open, and cover us to retreat."

Mohamed responded and strode away. Not long after, the Dashi Army, under the command of Mohamed, began to break through from the west. Now the Tang army's trenches are just five trenches, and it is indeed not enough to block the Dashi Army.

Chen Wanrong and the others knew that Hacha was just cunning and he did not withdraw on the first day because he had not thought it through. When he understood, he would definitely break through. Moreover, with his talent, he would soon understand. Therefore, the Tang army had already prepared for the siege.

Geshuhan divided the four main parts of the Tang army into four directions, east, west, south, north and north. No matter which direction the Dashi army broke through, it would be blocked. As reserves, the remaining troops would be reinforced wherever they were tight.

In order to deal with the upcoming fierce battle, Chen Wanrong divided the artillery into five parts, with one hundred artillery stationed in east, west, south and north to deal with emergency situations. The remaining 700 were used manually, and the Dashi army would rush to wherever it broke through.

As soon as Muhammad's army rushed out of the camp, he saw a huge net cover in the sky. It was the artillery that began to bomb. The initial sample cannon had a range of four or five miles, and now the range of the cannon is even longer. Muhammad only saw the shells flying over, but did not know where the cannon was. With the battle the day before yesterday, Muhammad had some understanding of the power of the cannon and hurriedly ordered the army to disperse.

The Dashi Army's reaction ability was very fast and immediately dispersed after ordering, but it still killed and injured a lot. Just after one round of shells, every two rounds of shells arrived immediately. Chen Wanrong asked the artillery to be fired in turn, so that the Dashi Army could always be bombed and easily create chaos.

In this way, Mohammed could not have been able to complete the team, so he could only order the army to charge in the fire of artillery, trying to open a hole. After the baptism of artillery fire, his army suffered a lot of casualties and was already in chaos. At this moment, the Tang army's arrows shot overwhelmingly, covering his army.

After the arrow rain, the corpses on the ground were thick, and some soldiers shot into hedgehogs. The crossbowmen of the Tang army, like artillery soldiers, still shot in turn, endlessly. As soon as the arrow rain passed, the second arrow rain arrived. After the arrow rain and artillery attacks, Muhammad threw many corpses, but he knew his current situation and ordered the army to advance regardless of casualties.

As they were about to reach the trench, countless Tang troops emerged from the trench. The bows in their hands were shot at the Dashi Army, and the Dashi Army threw many bodies behind them, but this still could not stop them from breaking through.

When they rushed to the edge of the trench, the Tang army pulled away their bows, picked up the horizontal knife, and slashed at the foot of the Dashi Army. The Dashi Army was condescending, but they could not have any advantage. If they wanted to attack the Tang army, they had to bend over. Often, before their waists were bent down, they cut off their legs and fell to the ground.

The Tang army's armor was far better than the Dashi Army. Its protective ability was good. Basically, it didn't have to worry about the Dashi Army's chopping and slaughtering. Just greeted the Dashi Army's legs. After a series of chopping and slashing, the Dashi Army fell down in pieces, and the battle continued, until the Dashi Army had no offensive power, and even the first trench did not rush over.

Muhammad ordered his retreat unwillingly and returned to the camp. Less than 2,000 people were seven or eight thousand, and most of them were injured.

The moment he entered the camp, Mohamed smashed his helmet hard on the ground, his face turned blue with anger. He had never fought such a cowardly battle since he followed Hacha, so how could he not get angry?

Hacha only sent someone to call him and comforted him: "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs, and you don't have to remember it in your heart, and you don't have to be discouraged. This time it was a tentative attack, and it's normal that it didn't succeed. Gu Taibai, you led 30,000 people, but you still broke through the West."

Mohammed was very surprised: "Sir, why did you break out from the West?"

Hacha just laughed and said, "You have just broken through the West and are still breaking through the West. You will definitely catch Tangren off guard!"

His abacus was good, but he didn't know that the Tang army generals had a telescope that could see clearly in his camp. Geshuhan stood on a high place, looked at the Dashi military camp with a telescope. When he saw the Dashi army heading west, he immediately gave an order to ask the Tang army to meet the enemy in the west.

Gu Taibai admired Hacha's plan very much, and set off with the army, full of confidence, and thought that he would gain something this time. However, what surprised him was that his army was bombarded by artillery as soon as he left the barracks. Like Muhammad, there were many casualties and injuries, but they were still attacked by artillery fire.

Immediately followed by the dense rain of arrows from the Tang army, and then there was close combat. With the advantage of the trenches, the Tang army mainly cut off legs and feet, causing huge damage to the Dashi army.

This time, under the command of Gu Taibai, the Dashi Army launched an attack on the Tang army as if desperate, and actually broke through five trenches in a row. Gu Taibai was overjoyed and shouted excitedly: "Hurry, hurry, rush out and guard!"

When he led the Dashi army to the flat ground, he saw a sharp light of swords, and teams of heavy infantry soldiers holding swords surrounded them.

Looking at the dark heavy infantry, Gu Taibai was exhausted. Once the heavy infantry of the Tang army was attached, it would be a heavy casualty. However, in this situation, he had to bite the bullet and fight.

"Go!" Gu Taibai waved his hand, and the Dashi army shouted "Allah" and rushed towards the Tang army with Damascus scimitar. However, what greeted them was the heavy Mo sword, either chopped to death or chopped into pieces.

This result was expected. Gu Taibai ordered the army to rush forward without hesitation, but it was just to practice for the Tang army, without any results. Just when the heavy infantry attacked head-on, the Tang army fired with bows and arrows from both sides, and of course the artillery and crossbow were not idle. Under such a fierce attack, he had to pay a heavy price every moment. Gu Taibai saw the army's casualties increase sharply, and finally had to order a retreat.

However, in this situation, it is not that easy to withdraw. It is either chased by heavy infantry soldiers, or it is shot by arrows and bombarded by artillery.

When Gu Taibai retreated to the camp, less than 10,000 troops returned to the camp, most of which were injured. This breakthrough alone cost him a heavy price. The corpses outside the camp were thick, and blood dyed the ground red.

Gu Taibai, who was covered in blood, saw Ha Chazhi and almost begged, saying, "Sir, we should break through!"

Hacha just waved his hand and asked him to be quiet and did not speak. He was obviously unable to make a decision even if he kept pace. Dispersing the breakthrough was certainly a good choice, but this also had serious disadvantages, that is, the troops were dispersed and it was easy to defeat the Tang army. Furthermore, after dispersing the breakthrough, the army was divided into various places and it was difficult to gather. With the mobility of the Tang army, it was very easy to catch up with them and annihilate them. This risk was too great. It was usually the method used just when there was no hope of breaking out.

Now, not yet reached this point, Hacha made up his mind and said, "I decided to divide the army into three parts, and you and I will take one part each to break through from the east and west directions. Remember, we must take action together. After breaking through, we will gather here and then deal with the Tang army."

Mohammed reminded him: "Sir, we need more troops to deal with the Tang army."

Hacha nodded and said, "Don't worry, once you stick out, I will order the troops to be dispatched. Take a break and act immediately! Yesterday, I did not guess the intention of Tang Jun. I had already been on duty for a day, and now I can't make any mistakes!"

Gu Taibai asked, "Sir, we attacked the Tang army twice, as if they knew our intentions, should we wait until dark so that they could not see us."

It was a very good idea to use the night to cover the breakout. Hacha just nodded and said, "It is feasible! Order the entire army to rest, eat and drink, and accumulate energy, and then act again in the middle of the night."

Muhammad had another idea: "Sir, we cannot be idle during the day. We should send some troops to break through from different directions to confuse the Tang army."

Gu Taibai happily agreed: "That's what it should be."

So, the Dashi Army broke through from different directions again and again, and repelled the Tang army. This was a feint attack, and its strength was incomparable to the first two times. Chen Wanrong frowned and asked, "Brother Brother Shu, have you seen that the Dashi Army is working or not, and is trying to fix the time?"

Geshuhan smiled and said, "Hacha is just very cunning. If others are going to be fooled by him. I guess he will move at night and want to stick out while it's dark. He is confusing us."

"I'm thinking so too. What are Brother Brother Shu planning to do?" Chen Wanrong asked.

Geshuhan frowned and said, "Breaking through the dark night is only very beneficial to Hacha. We cannot see clearly and cannot mobilize the army to encircle it in time. It is better to launch an attack now and annihilate as much as possible."

This idea was immediately supported by Wang Zhongsi: "Yes! Instead of letting him escape after dark, it is better to start now. Although it cannot be wiped out completely, it can only cause Hacha to suffer heavy damage."

"This opportunity cannot be missed!" Gao Xianzhi also agreed.

Feng Changqing and Yang Sixu had no objection, and they were about to reach an agreement. Just Chen Wanrong needed to express his opinion. Ge Shuhan asked, "Brother Chen, what do you think?"

Chen Wanrong smiled relaxedly and said, "Brother Brother Shu, I just can't see clearly and cannot mobilize troops. If I have a way to let you see clearly, what will you do?"

"What's the solution?" Everyone was surprised and asked in unison.

Chen Wanrong smiled mysteriously and said, "Isn't there something in our warehouse that is easy to burn? If this thing is not used, how long will it be waiting for?"

One sentence reminded everyone, and they all laughed: "Good idea! As long as this thing is used, there will be fire all over the mountains and fields, which is no different from the daytime. It is no problem to stop Hacha from escaping."

Wang Zhongsi blinked and said, "If you have this good baby, you have to use it well. We can't use it like this. We have to let Hacha just be a big shot. The problem is, we have to figure out when Hacha will break through and where he will escape."

Feng Changqing analyzed: "Generally speaking, the breakout time is at the third update. Of course, it is better to be more accurate."

Ge Shuhan frowned and said, "Yes, we have to judge this time accurately. Otherwise, although there are many things, they are not enough. We have to figure out the direction. What method should we use? It will be too late to fight."

This is a very difficult problem, and everyone can't help but look at each other.

Chen Wanrong stretched out his right hand towards Geshu Hanyi and said, "Brother Geshu, give me a gift, I will come up with an idea, not only can I judge their movements, but I can also know in the camp."

This is a joke. Brother Shuhan slapped Chen Wanrong's palm and smiled and said, "Brother Chen, are you confident? Don't keep it aside, otherwise, I will throw a few big-food girls on your bed, and then go back to tell your wife, let's see how you go to bed?"

Everyone laughed loudly.

Chen Wanrong gave Brother Shu Han a blank look and then said, "This method is very simple and worthless." With a move of hand, everyone came over and Chen Wanrong talked about it.

Everyone's eyes shone, threw Chen Wanrong up, and laughed in unison: "I didn't expect you to have such a wonderful idea! It's done, it's done!"
