Great Tang Broom Star

Chapter 1137 ? The Suzaku flag is flying

Latest URL: "Who is that?"

The standing figure on the top of the wall annoyed the Tubo people very much.

"Let the arrow!"

A wave of arrows went up, and the man had turned into a hedgehog.

But he still does not fall.

Those tiger eyes stared round, staring at the crenel.

A Tibetan who had just climbed up was startled, screamed, and fell down on his head.

"Captain!"

The defenders went berserk.

The people in the city flocked to them. They picked up knives, guns, bows and arrows, smashed the enemy's will with waves of arrow rain, and made the enemy lose their minds with counterattacks one by one.

"Great Minister, the enemy general died in battle, and the defenders recruited the people in the city."

"Tang Jun is really tenacious."

Shule City, which was originally scheduled to go down in two days, is still holding on to this day.

"The defenders have used the people, which means that it is at the end of their strength and continue to attack."

Lu Dongzan looked over Shule City to the east.

"The rangers must block the surrounding area so that the Anxi Tang army cannot know about the battle here."

"yes!"

"What will happen to Chang'an?"

Lu Dongzan smiled and said, "Anxi is too far from Chang'an, and too close to Tubo."

This is the crime of being pregnant.

"Breakthrough."

The city has already broken through.

The defenders, composed of groups of soldiers and civilians, are fighting back frantically.

Arrows are flying, and knives and guns are like forests.

"continue!"

Lu Dongzan said lightly.

It took six days for an army of 300,000 to attack a small town, which cast a shadow over his plan.

If Shule is like this, what about the more powerful Kucha?

It is the base camp of the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion, and the main force of the Tang army is also there. It is not easy to capture it.

In history, Tubo besieged Anxi Dufu Mansion for decades, and the defenders changed from young to old before breaking the city.

Naturally, the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion at this moment cannot be compared with the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion in history, and the strength gap is too great.

But a Shule city still caused the Tubo people to be beaten and bloody.

"Very powerful Tang Jun."

Lu Dongzan must praise the defenders.

"Go up!"

A team of fierce soldiers rushed forward.

The city is bloody and rainy.

"Follow up, regardless of casualties, we must break through the city today!"

Lu Dongzan said calmly.

In his eyes, those corpses are just numbers.

Casualties do not matter, the important thing is to achieve strategic goals.

As long as Anxi is taken down, Tubo will win the strategic initiative.

"Up again."

The Tubo people had already stabilized a piece of land at the top of the city, and the follow-up reinforcements rushed up continuously.

"Get ready to enter the city."

Wang Chunyang knew that there was nothing to be done, "We must stick to the city and make it difficult for the enemy to move."

This is street fighting.

A general hissed and asked, "Captain, where is the gunpowder?"

"It's long gone." Wang Chunyang said bitterly.

It's not that he doesn't want to mobilize gunpowder, but that the gunpowder is gone.

Facing the attack of an army of 300,000, the gunpowder packs that he once thought were huge, were exhausted in a day and a half.

When the enemy doesn't care about casualties, these means can only slow down the speed of the enemy breaking through the city.

But he couldn't say it earlier, because it would affect the morale of the army.

Thinking of Han Zong who died tragically in battle, Wang Chunyang gritted his teeth and said, "Wait for me below!"

In the middle army, Lu Dongzan nodded slightly, "After breaking through the city, quickly wipe out the defenders. There are not many wooden houses in the city, so it is not easy to set fire, and you can strangle them from all directions."

"yes!"

Lu Dongzan turned his gaze to the east, "The army is ready to go, and the troops are divided into two groups, one of which is to attack Khotan, and the main force will follow me to attack Qiuci and Yanqi."

Order issued.

Ranger out.

They passed slowly under the city, raised their heads, and looked proudly at the retreating defenders at the top of the city.

This is a powerful and confident Tubo!

"We are invincible!"

The morale of the army rose.

The ranger began to accelerate.

They will meet up with the rangers in front of them, and go all the way to Kucha.

It's a long way.

"Our people are back."

There are cheers ahead.

"This is the scout to investigate."

As soon as the army arrived in Shule, Lu Dongzan sent out scouts to block the road from Kucha to Shule, trying to delay the time for the Anxi Protectorate to get the news as much as possible.

More than a hundred riders are galloping crazily.

The ride stops.

Someone asked in amazement, "Why is it so fast?"

yes!

Those scouts seemed to be running for their lives.

They spotted the army, waving wildly.

"What does this mean?"

A black line appeared in the sky.

The sound of horseshoes came gradually.

Ranger looked up in astonishment.

Both sides, who were fighting fiercely at the head of the city, slowed down.

Countless cavalry are coming from the east!

The ranger screamed: "It's the enemy!"

The Tubo people who were besieging the city, especially those who turned their backs on the cavalry, all turned their heads.

"It's Tang Jun!"

Ten thousand Turkic servants are attacking.

Ashnapol, the leader of the team, had deep eyes, "Assault."

The cavalry took care of the infantry, that is, Tang Woxue...except for the infantry of Datang.

"withdraw!"

The general commanding on this side gave the order without hesitation.

Now they were facing the city wall, and if they wanted to defend, they had to turn back. Turning back can be very fast, but then you have to line up... The chaotic formation of the siege team... It is estimated that the enemy cavalry will arrive just after the start.

By then it was a massacre.

The defenders at the top of the city were stunned.

They fought bloody battles, but they were told that the reinforcements would not arrive in four or five days.

So when they saw the dark cavalry, everyone was dumbfounded, and their eyes immediately became hot.

"Reinforcements have arrived!"

Wang Chunyang, who was directing in the west of the city, was shocked, but he didn't dare to look back.

The front is full of enemy troops, and he is commanding his subordinates to fight and retreat.

He shouted, "But the reinforcements?"

If the reinforcements came, then even if he tried his best to toss most of his subordinates in, he would still suppress the enemy.

As for street fighting, no more!

"Wan Sheng!"

The defenders in the east of the city are cheering.

Wang Chunyang was overjoyed and shouted: "Brothers, fight back!"

The morale of the soldiers and civilians was immediately boosted, arrows flew densely, and everyone started to counterattack fearlessly.

"Major Minister, the Tang army is here, more than ten thousand cavalry."

Lu Dongzan looked as usual, "This is the reinforcements sent by Qiuci. This is a good thing. It happens to gather and annihilate them. Order to retreat and line up!"

"Woo woo woo..."

With the sound of the horn, the enemy troops at the head of the city began to evacuate like a tidal wave.

"kill!"

The rest could not be withdrawn, some people screamed and jumped from the top of the city, some were nailed to death by arrows on the top of the city, some were stabbed to death by spears...

Wang Chunyang shouted frantically: "Old Han, open your eyes and take a look!"

The momentum of more than ten thousand cavalry is shocking and can be called magnificent.

"It's the Turkic cavalry."

"That's our cavalry."

After the Turks were wiped out, many Turks were recruited into a servant army. They grazed when they had nothing to do on weekdays. After hearing the call, they brought their own dry food and weapons and followed the army to fight.

What they crave is the post-war reward.

This kind of servant army looks aggressive, but it lacks toughness.

Therefore, it must be supplemented by Fubing as the core to fight.

The cavalry rushed all the way, and the remaining infantry were easily wiped out.

They rushed to the west gate of the city and lined up against the city wall.

The Tibetans are slowly retreating.

The cavalry appeared, and they rushed behind the infantry and stood in formation.

"If it is the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, it will definitely take advantage of the trend to attack."

Wang Chunyang at the head of the city shook his head.

The general beside him said: "If they have the bravery of the Tang cavalry, how can they be defeated by the Tang Dynasty?"

"Too!"

The relative weakness of the Turkic people reflects the bravery of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

The cavalry did not move.

Ashnapole said, "Just hold on."

The Tibetans kept retreating until they reached the Chinese army.

"Array."

Order issued.

The pawns began to line up.

This is a cumbersome process that requires flags to guide.

"Turks... that's all!"

Lu Dongzan squinted at the 10,000 cavalry, and said flatly, "It's nothing to worry about."

If it were him, he would definitely order the cavalry to attack. Taking advantage of the chaos of the Tubo infantry, at least it would damage the morale of the army.

The Turkic people on the opposite side shrank obviously.

"how many people?"

Someone raised his head and asked the head of the city.

The head of the city shouted, "Almost three hundred thousand!"

Ashnapol nodded, with more relief in his eyes, "My judgment is not wrong. If I attacked just now, I would definitely be involved."

The lieutenant is called Wang Rong, which is a Chinese name changed after surrendering to the Tang Dynasty a few years ago.

"300,000... 50,000 here."

Ashnapol said indifferently: "We can also kill the enemy."

Wang Rong smiled, "Yes!"

They are Turkic people from the Gongyue tribe. The last time Ashina Helu was defeated by Datang, he fled all the way, and even ran from Gongyue City... Naturally, the Tang army pursued closely, and Ashinapol was frightened by the Tang army's attack. Power, out of the city and surrender.

"Chasing and killing!"

Someone shouted from the top of the city.

Ashnapole shook his head.

Lu Dongzan saw the movement here from a distance, and said, "Turks are cautious, so let's try their courage. "

The whole army.

"Attack!"

The cavalry was at the forefront, reining in the horses back and forth, and then drew their bows and arrows.

"Let the arrow!"

Both sides are shooting at each other.

Wang Chunyang had already reached the west of the city, and said in a deep voice, "The crossbowmen are ready, let the Turks flatten the formation."

The head of the city shouted, "Squeeze the formation."

The crossbowmen assembled at the top of the city.

The Turks retreated slowly.

The enemy is approaching...

"Beware of crossbow arrows!"

Before the words were finished, a wave of crossbow arrows shot from the top of the city, and all the Tubo people fell from their horses.

This is the advantage of defending by the city, the city can provide support at any time.

The pawns came up.

The arrival of pawns broke Tang Jun's wishful thinking.

"Their archers..."

Teams of archers came forward from behind.

"The formation should be flatter." Ashnapol gritted his teeth.

This is too miserable to be bullied!

The formation of the Turks was flat again, but the archers could no longer go up, otherwise they would be covered by the crossbow arrows at the top of the city.

"Go up wave by wave." Lu Dongzan said calmly: "The crossbow can be shot far, but it is troublesome to wind it."

Hundreds of archers stepped forward.

"Let the arrow!"

This wave of archers lost more than a hundred people, but successfully knocked down more than 30 Turkic people.

The second wave of archers stepped forward, and the crossbowmen at the top of the city were still winding...

"Let the arrow!"

This wave of Turks lost even more.

But they couldn't fight back.

There is a huge difference between riding bows and step bows, and the shooting range is even more vast...Of course, don't compare them with fierce men like Xue Rengui. In addition, walking bows are inherently able to bully cavalry bows.

You want to say that cavalry and archery are invincible, but the so-called range of cavalry and archery is very impressive, and only light cavalry can shoot arrows on horseback. But for short-range shooting and step bow shooting, Qingqi will only do this if he is brain-dead.

Later, there was a tactic of cavalry dismounting and shooting arrows, and then heavy infantry or heavy cavalry charged, and after defeating the opponent, light cavalry began to chase and kill.

The biggest advantage of Qingqi is its mobility. Tens of thousands of cavalry are burning, killing and looting in your country, but you can only watch it because you are an infantry. How aggrieved!

Once the battle starts, the light cavalry can be easily dispatched everywhere. They are here today, and they will go elsewhere tomorrow, and the opponents they fight will be puzzled.

Once you are defeated, Qingqi's pursuit will continue to the end of the sky.

The so-called riding and archery has never been invincible, that thing is just used to scare the farming country.

Just like now, the Turkic people were pushed against the city wall, helplessly shooting at each other with riding bows and step bows, and were beaten all over their heads.

If the number of enemy troops is small, they can still attack, but 300,000!

You rush to have a look.

Many Turkic people feel that if they go in, they will not be able to get out.

"Get out!"

Wang Rong said with a heartache.

Ashnapol squinted his eyes and looked ahead, "Lu Dongzan is really ruthless, even to his own people. When will the army arrive?"

Wang Rong said: "The day after tomorrow."

They were forwards, and they were ordered to go all the way to the west of Shule City to investigate. Unexpectedly, when they arrived at Shule City, they encountered the Tubo army.

"Two days..."

Ashnapole said: "Prepare to withdraw."

"assault!"

This was a wave of counterattack before the retreat. After the Tubo people were driven away, the cavalry could retreat calmly.

"The Turks are going to run!"

Someone suggested, "Prime Minister, hunt him down."

Lu Dongzan smiled, "It's nothing more than prairie wild dogs. If you drive them out, the morale of the defenders will naturally collapse."

The cavalry strikes.

"withdraw!"

Taking advantage of the gap between the archers turning and retreating and the cavalry rushing over, the Turks began to turn left, preparing to evacuate from the south of the city.

"Said Ni Niang!"

Wang Chunyang yelled, "Yeah, I know the Turks are unreliable, mother, turn around and wait for Chang'an to clean you up!"

A group of Turkic cavalry just turned around the south of the city.

Wang Chunyang turned around and shouted: "Take this opportunity to move the arrow up quickly, hurry up!"

The defenders got a respite, which can be regarded as the credit of the Turks.

"what is that?"

Someone screamed on the east side of the city, no, it was a group of people screaming.

"The governor..."

Wang Chunyang scolded: "It's Nima! It's calling the soul!"

"Captain!"

There were still shouts over there, the screams made the scalp tingle, and there were more and more people.

Wang Chunyang scolded: "It's okay, yeah, I'll kill you."

As soon as he started running, he stopped.

He listened attentively.

puff! puff! puff!

This is the sound of footsteps.

It was as if someone was beating the ground with a giant mallet.

Wang Chunyang started running, he stumbled until he tripped over a corpse. He then got up, ignored the blood on his face, and ran all the way to the south of the city, poked his head out, and looked towards the east...

Hundreds of cavalry are coming at a gallop.

They raised their spears or horses, and cheers came.

"It's reinforcements!"

But the sound of footsteps still came from the east.

Wang Chunyang was panting while running towards the east of the city.

"Bring more! Be sure to come more!"

The lack of people is not enough for the Tibetans to swallow.

Puff puff!

The sound of huge footsteps sounded like thunder.

"who is it?"

The Turks halted their retreat.

"That's a Ranger!"

Someone exclaimed.

Puff puff!

The huge footsteps were getting closer, but still no one could be seen.

The Tubo people were also stunned, and immediately assembled.

"who is it?"

A large banner suddenly appeared in the east.

Someone exclaimed, "What a tall flagpole!"

"Five ren high!"

The soldiers were dumbfounded.

The flagpole is very high and the color is fiery red.

A Suzaku moves with the wind on the flag, like a divine beast.

"It's the Suzaku Banner!"

A sergeant covered his cheek, "It's the royal banner!"

The banner of the Tang Dynasty has rules. For example, the height of the flag is six for the emperor, and five for the next level. And the Suzaku Banner is a big banner dedicated to the royal family.

But this big banner unexpectedly appeared in Anxi today.

Except for a few generals, no one knew that the prince was in command of the reinforcements.

The banner moved with the strong wind, and Wang Chunyang shouted: "His Royal Highness is here!"

In an instant, everyone in the city was dumbfounded.

How could the prince appear here when he was young?

From Chang'an to thousands of miles in the Western Regions, how can the young prince persevere?

Puff puff!

A black line appeared on the horizon.

The pawns poured out from the sky continuously, and everyone watched in dumbfounded.

A large banner appeared.

"Jia character flag!"

Tears welled up in his eyes, "It's Zhao Guogong who is here!"

Someone turned around and looked at the Tubo army, cursing: "You bitch, the army of the Tang Dynasty is here, do you dare to come?"

Lu Dongzan couldn't see what was going on in the east at the moment, but he knew something was wrong when he saw the movement on the top of the city.

"They stopped retreating."

Lu Dongzan has already seen it, the Turks...

"The Turks turned around."

The Turkic people who had just fled turned around.

Turn around, just turn around, they even rushed towards the stunned Tubo cavalry like crazy.

"Who made the Turkic people so desperate?"

Lu Dongzan asked.

The two sides played against each other, and the Turks actually gained the upper hand.

"Master, they are going crazy."

Lu Dongzan said: "It seems like there is a tiger chasing them behind."

puff! puff! puff!

The loud sound continued to hit.

"It's the arrival of enemy reinforcements."

Lu Dongzan frowned, "It is impossible for the Anxi Protectorate to mobilize such a large number of reinforcements, this is..."

"Look at the banner!"

Lu Dongzan ordered, and then elite cavalry circled from the flanks, bypassed the mad Turkic people, rushed to the south of the city, and then reined in their horses.

They set up a pergola with their hands and looked carefully.

"It's a big bird."

"That is……"

Someone exclaimed, "That's the flag of Jia!"

The cavalry were stunned.

There should be more than one Tang general surnamed Jia, but there is only one who can use such a banner.

"It's the killer!"

Back then, Dasai led an army of 100,000 to attack Tuyuhun, and the whole way was like breaking a bamboo. Seeing that Shudun City was in front of him, he encountered Tang Jun.

In that battle, Jia Pingan led the way alone as the deputy general, and the Tubo people he killed were thrilling, especially the huge Jingguan, but anyone who saw the Tubo people would have nightmares.

Boundless pawns are approaching.

"withdraw!"

Tang Jun's rangers came, and they chased and killed them without fear!

The elite cavalry ran all the way, but their tails were still bitten.

The cavalry rushed to the front of the formation, but the rangers of the Tang Army behind them dared to charge over.

"Let the arrow!"

A wave of arrows knocked down more than a dozen infantry, and a general of the Tang Army rushed in.

"It's Mo Dao!"

Lu Dongzan saw Mo Dao flying.

The general of the Tang army rushed more than ten steps all the way, raised his head and shouted in the direction of Lu Dongzan: "Yeye Li Jingye, Lu Dongzan, keep your head, and wait for Yeye to get it someday, hahahaha!"

"Li Jingye?"

Lu Dongzan was not impressed.

He was concerned about the important ministers and generals of the Tang Dynasty, so Xiao Xiami naturally wouldn't look at them.

One of the generals said, "Prime Minister, he seems to be Li Ji's grandson."

The cavalry rushed forward.

"President, it's a fiery red bird riding."

Lu Dong was puzzled, "This is the banner of the royal family, the royal family... Changsun Wuji purged the generals of the royal family back then, where did the Suzaku flag come from?"

"Followed by a large flag, it is the flag of Jia!"

"Jia Pingan!"

This name seems to have a magical power, which startled the Tubo people who were still passionate just now.

...

Good night!
