Chapter 99 Eliminating hidden dangers with one stone
Chapter 99: Slaying two birds with one stone to eliminate hidden dangers
Not only Cao Dan and Shi Ba and other servants of the Western Regions were unbelievable, but Tomoto Zengren and Topuqiong Da'an were also stunned to look at the battlefield.
Under the influence of the huge impact of the war horse, the hook and sickle spear stabbed the body of the Tubo knight. The war horse accelerated. With this huge force, the hook and sickle spear pulled out from the body of the Tubo knight soldiers, bringing out a stream of dirty blood. The eyes of the Tubo soldiers who were stabbed were bulging. They looked at the wound with blood squirting wildly on their chest in disbelief, and fell down with shock and unwillingness.
Zengren's eyes were about to split, and he roared like a wild beast: "Idiot...Idiot...Do not..."
"Counterattack...counterattack!" Dongpuqiongda Ang shouted wildly, "Counterattack, it's a fucking counterattack!"
However, the Tubo cavalry was as if they were drawn from their souls, and they could only watch the cavalry and lances stabbed their bodies with their sharp cavalry and spears, or hooked off their arms, upper bodies or heads.
It’s not that they don’t want to hide, nor that they don’t want to hide. It’s just that the hook and sickle cavalry use local advantages. At the same time, three or four cavalrymen deal with a Tubo cavalry. No matter how brave they are, they have no choice but to hide and cannot avoid!
According to the habit of the Tubo cavalry charge, each cavalry is three or five steps away or even ten steps away. If a cavalry of one thousand people charges in a single line, they will form a cavalry line that lasts several miles or even ten miles. However, the cavalry of the hook and sickle lances are only five or six hundred steps away from each other. In other words, within a local range, the cavalry of the hook and sickle lances are three or five times or even ten times the advantage against the enemy.
Some Tubo cavalry were lucky enough to avoid the first row of hook and sickle spears, and passed through the sharp hook and sickle spears of the cavalry wall, and survived from death, but they immediately discovered that this was not a happy thing, because there were still dense war horses waiting for them, one war horse next to another. Even if their character exploded, it would be impossible for them to avoid this row of war horses. Even if the first row of hook and sickle spear cavalry had air strikes due to the death of personnel, there were still six rows behind them.
Many Tubo cavalry were killed in the layers of hooks and sickles.
The cavalry wall of the cavalry army rumbled forward and the Tang soldiers did not need to deliberately stab anyone. As long as they aimed the hook and sickle guns at the rushing Tubo cavalry, someone would hit and die on their hook and sickle gun blades. Even if they could not be stabbed at that time, when the two horses were intertwined, the hook and sickle gun could cut the Tubo cavalry to the ground like a sickle cutting wheat.
The cavalry and cavalry wall swept across like a strong wind. Wherever they went, the Tubo cavalry were taken off their horses, and the guns were at the forefront, and the corpses were dead on the ground. It was just a round of collision. The Tubo cavalry had previously used bows and arrows to pay back the casualties caused to them with their principal and profits!
In this era, cavalry charges have always been mainly based on rushing shooting. They use their powerful mobility and precise archery skills to bite the enemy like wolves, bleed the enemy's army, and weaken the enemy's will. The Mongol army's Manguda tactics have taken cavalry shooting to the extreme and fought invincible throughout the Eurasian continent. Such a fighting style makes the farming nation helpless. Once the farming nation, which is mainly infantry, encounters a large number of cavalry from nomadic peoples on the plains, it will only be a matter of time before collapse.
For example, the ancient Roman army was shot down by the archers and cavalry of Parthia and Sassania more than once. Of course, they also had strong mediocre ability to fight with sabers, long swords, spears and other weapons, and they could get horses off. Once they were on the back, they would be nailed to it, and no matter how the horses bumped, they could not move at all. This kind of light flying knight is called light cavalry. The war horses of the Tubo people were mainly plateau horses, with fast charge speed, good endurance, and tall. In addition, the yak leather armor of the Tubo people made the Tubo people invincible all over the surrounding area.
In fact, the Tubo people taught the Turks more than once how to be a human being. Only the most elite Turkish army was the Turkish army. However, no matter how powerful the light cavalry or heavy cavalry were, they were not the opponent of the cavalry wall.
First, Dongdai Dongmoto Zengren's command more than 4,000 elite Tubo cavalry were killed and injured, and the rest were pale, as if they were greatly frightened.
At this moment, Chen Ying turned to Cao Dan, Shi Ba and other generals of the Western Regions' servants and soldiers smiled coldly, "Are the Tubo people powerful?"
Cao Dan really couldn't understand why the fierce Tubo people became unable to fight when they met the Tang army's hook sickle and lances. In just a quarter of an hour, the Tubo people fell down three or four thousand cavalry, and the losses of the Tang army, together with the minor and serious injuries, would definitely not exceed one hundred.
Chen Ying looked at the unconfused servants of the Western Regions and said, "Do you know why you were defeated by the Tubo people? The steel knife made of fine steel, fine iron armor, and the best Yilima were beaten to a disgrace by the Tubo people, and the casualties were killed or injured."
The servants of the Western Regions were very confused and they wanted to know the answer even more.
Chen Ying then turned to Cao Dan and yelled: "Because you are stupid, because you are incompetent, because you are timid, and because you are timid and cowardly, more than 20,000 Western Regions warriors died because of hatred. Why do you still have the face to live? Are you worthy of those wives who have lost their husbands, children who have lost their fathers, and parents who have lost their sons?"
Cao Dan, Shi Ba and others were scolded by Chen Ying so hard that they didn't dare to raise their heads.
After hearing Chen Ying's words, they finally understood that it was their clan leader who harmed them.
They looked at their patriarch and leader with resentment at the same time, wishing they could eat their flesh, peel their skins, and drink their blood.
Chen Ying actually wanted to kill these leaders of all tribes in the Western Regions, because for the Western Regions, each tribe was an independent individual. They blindly followed their leaders or clan leaders and had no opinion at all. Their leaders surrendered to Tang, and they also surrendered to Tang. Their clan leaders or leaders surrendered to Turks, and they would also surrender to Turks.
For Chen Ying wanted to change the Western Regions into a governance like the original one, then the leaders and patriarchs of all races were a very big resistance. Of course, their hands were somewhat stained with the blood of the Han people.
But if Chen Ying killed them in this name, they would definitely rebel, and all tribes and tribes would rebel together. Chen Ying borrowed the swords of the Tubo people, leaving a deep impression on them.
Their patriarchs and leaders were very incompetent, and even the Tubo people could not defeat them, so they were harmed by taking them.
"A lion led by a sheep cannot beat a yellow sheep led by a tiger. As the saying goes, a general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies. You are so incompetent, what's the use for you?" Chen Ying pointed at his personal guard and shouted: "Cut them!"
Without waiting for everyone to beg for mercy, more than a hundred leaders and patriarchs were kicked by Chen Ying's personal guards and knelt on the ground at the same time.
Knock...
As a sound of a sword being sheathed out of the sheath, a shiny cold light flashed by.
Puff...Puff, the sound of a knife slashing into the flesh sounded.
The big head rolled down to the ground like a ball.
These servants of the servants of various tribes in the Western Regions stepped forward and fought desperately with Chen Ying. Instead, they rushed towards the bodies of their respective leaders and bit the bodies of their leaders. In just a moment, more than one hundred people turned into bones.
Chen Ying was very satisfied when he watched this scene.
Su Dingfang stepped forward and bowed and said, "Major Protector, what should they do? Have they killed them too?"
Chen Ying shook his head and said, "No need to kill. If you want to kill, there will be no one in the Western Regions."
Speaking of this, Chen Ying turned to Guo Xiaoke and said, "Guo Xiaoke!"
"The last one will be here!"
"Based on your Zhechong Mansion, reorganize them!" Chen Ying pointed to these soldiers of various tribes in the Western Regions and said: "The original 11th Zhechong Mansion was reorganized into the Anxi Yue Cavalry. The Anxi Yue Cavalry has twenty Zhechong Mansions under its jurisdiction. Su Dingfang leads the left army of Yue Cavalry and the right army of Yue Cavalry and the ten right army of Yue Cavalry."
Su Dingfang and Guo Xiaoke were overjoyed when they heard this.
Guo Xiaoke was originally just a soldier, and it had been less than a year since he was promoted to Zhechong Commander in Lingzhou. Now he is honored to be the fourth-rank general Zhongwu, which is simply a step up to the sky.
Although Su Dingfang was General Zhongwu, he was just a false position, but led Chen Ying's personal guard Yue Qi regiment.
Now I give him ten thousand people to ten mansions at once. What a trust this is.
Su Dingfang bowed and said, "Swear to die for the Great Protector!"
When Guo Xiaoke heard this, he was slightly stunned and shouted: "I wish to die for the Protector of the Great Deity!"
Chen Ying turned to look at the servants of all ethnic groups in the Western Regions and shouted loudly: "Warriors of the Western Regions, your cowardly, incompetent, and stupid leaders are dead. Now let your new leaders take you with you, like tigers, howling in the Western Regions, invincible!"
Su Dingfang and Guo Xiaoke thought that their reorganization would be a big deal, but they did not expect it to be so smooth.
Just when Chen Ying asked Su Dingfang and Guo Xiaoke to reorganize the vassal army of various tribes in the Western Regions, changes occurred on the battlefield. The Tubo people were about to go crazy, and they had nearly tens of thousands of casualties.
Dongpuqiongda Ang roared: "Damn Tang Dog!"
Da'ang held the mace in both hands and swept it out hard. The thick mace was everywhere. A cavalryman who shot the air was hit by his thick mace. The cavalryman's head burst out of gray-white brains, splashing blood rain all over the sky.
In exchange, three personal soldiers around Da'an were stabbed. Such exchanges almost made Da'an's lungs explode. He had never seen such a fighting style, without any tricks. He just rushed over with hook and sickle guns. The Tubo people's superb equestrian and extraordinary martial arts were simply unable to display, and they were picked up and dismounted!
Although he didn't have time to count the casualties, through the screams and the Manchu curses full of anger and horror, he could conclude that the Tubo people had absolutely suffered heavy casualties.
The embarrassed Tomoto Zengren ran to Rusheng Zanggu and said, "Rusheng Zanggu, the Tang people's fighting style is too evil, we are at a disadvantage!"
Ru Jian Zang Gu thought for a moment and smiled faintly: "Tell me to retreat and lead them to the place of heaven!"
The so-called land of heavenly blessings by the Tubo people is the 3,000-meter snow peak line on the snow field. In this high-altitude area, ordinary people will experience altitude reactions, while the Tubo people who are accustomed to the plateau climate have little influence.
With the order from Ru Zi Zang Gu, the Tubo people turned around and ran away.
Chen Ying pulled out his sword and shouted: "The Tubo people are defeated, and the entire army pursues them!"
The first to rush out was Su Dingfang and Guo Xiaoke. The two had just completed the reorganization, which was actually very simple. Originally, six soldiers from the Tang army were promoted to sergeant commander, gang commander, or team commander, and gang commander was promoted to brigade leader. The original team was promoted to lieutenant or vice-captain, while the brigade leader was promoted to lieutenant Guoyi or Zhechong commander.
The troops were put up in just a quarter of an hour.
Su Dingfang yelled wildly: "The Tubo people have been defeated, and the Yue cavalry left army avenged the shame!"
The left knights of the Yue cavalry yelled one after another: "Avenge your shame, avenge your shame..."
Guo Xiaoke also returned to his formation and shouted at the soldiers: "I recommend Xuanyuan with my blood, and the blood debt needs blood to be paid!"
At this time, watching the cavalry walls swarming, the Tubo people who were afraid of being beaten know very well. If they continue to fight, they will all stay here. So, the Tubo people turned their horses and ran towards the southwest.
Chapter completed!
