Late Tang Dynasty Floating Life

Chapter 302 Chaos

A hungry fox is walking on the vast field.

Searching and searching, deserted, miserable, no food can be found anywhere.

I don't know what happened, but the originally peaceful grassland suddenly became turbulent.There are galloping horses everywhere, but you can't see the fat hares, hungry!

The sound of horseshoes sounded in the distance again, and the sand fox was startled, and quickly ran down the mound, never to be seen again.

The sound of horseshoes was getting closer, and soon, a silver-saddled knight riding a tall horse appeared.

Behind him, more and more knights appeared.

One hundred, two hundred, three hundred... a full thousand riders!

Qianqi rolled over Pinggang, without stopping, and continued to rush towards the faintly outlined city in the distance.

Inside and outside the city walls, the brutal fighting continued.

Li Duo was helped to the back, covered in gold wounds, and his clothes were stained with blood.

The corners of his mouth curled up a little. The iron armor he put on before can be used as a fishing net, right?

I'm not dead yet!How many bandits have you killed?Can't remember, maybe ten or so.

He was also robbed of a few heads by An Xiuxiu, that guy likes to shoot cold arrows, bragging that his archery skills are comparable to An Renyi who fled to Huainan, but it is still not as good as us daring to fight face to face!

Cai people, when have you ever been afraid of death!
But although he doesn't want to admit it, to be honest, Anxiuxiu's foot combat is also quite powerful.

After two consecutive days of attacking the city, last night the Gamo people attacked at night.An Xiuxiu was sleeping near the city wall. At that time, many bandit soldiers rushed in along the gap. After waking up, An Xiuxiu didn't have time to put on his clothes, so he rushed over with a long spear.

Seeing his high nose and deep eyes, yellow hair and blue eyes, and beard and hair, the bandits almost thought it was a yaksha crawling out of the ground.In addition, this person's voice was extremely loud, and his roar was as loud as thunder. After a charge, the bandits were scared away.

Hey, Yasha, let you look like a Yasha!

The bell rang, and a group of Shatuo cavalry rushed out of Liangzhou City.They only had four hundred riders, and the number of people was getting smaller and smaller, but the remaining people became more and more bloodthirsty and brutal.Hundreds of Tatar cavalry who were intercepted head-on were scattered by them, and the Longjia tribe and the Sogdians stepped up again, which managed to stop their charge and prevent the infantry who were struggling to attack the city from being disturbed.

On the third day, all the tribes have invested a lot of money, almost taking turns to fight.Those who collapsed were contained on the spot, and those who ran the fastest were beheaded in front of the formation.

Can't attack Liangzhou in three days?During the Qianfu years, they rushed in without any resistance at all!
The "prime ministers" of Lu, Cui, Chen, Zhebu and other big clans were very anxious.Originally, I wanted to give the newcomer Tang Jun a shot at him, but I didn't think about what to do.But hit it, and it's a real fire!
The more than 3000 Tang troops not only used the broken city walls to fight desperately, but also sent cavalry out of the city to harass them from time to time, interrupting the rhythm of the attack. They were very sophisticated and hateful.

At this point, it is obvious that there is no way to be good.After the city is broken, all the Tang troops must be slaughtered to let them know who is the real master of Liangzhou.

The governor drank a large bowl of wine, then bared his upper body, yelled three times, and led the warriors to prepare to go.

Famous generals Li Siye and Ma Lin of the Tang Dynasty both stripped off their armor and helmets when the battle was in critical condition, and bared their upper bodies to charge into battle with unstoppable bravery.Today, Xicai will also boost morale in this way, let Tang Jun see that there are warriors at the end of the year!
"Kill!" Xi Nai raised his left arm high and shouted loudly.

The responses of the sergeants were sparse, and the thieves were not neat.

Xi Nai was furious, and was about to say something, but saw the soldiers turned around one after another, looking at the rear camp which was already in a panic.

There are no more soldiers in the rear battalion!In order to attack Liangzhou, almost all the elite were drawn up, and at this time the rear was attacked...

"Kill!" Fu Cunshen raised his left arm high and shouted loudly.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The cavalrymen of the Tianzhu Army responded loudly, their morale high.

"Pfft!" The Silver Saddle Knight took the lead, picked up the last sergeant blocking the way, and rushed into the rear camp.

Thousands of cavalry followed closely behind and rushed into the chaotic crowd of Gamo.

Unexpected, unexpected, with a bewildered look, probably talking about the end of this meeting.

The rear battalion was old, weak, and disorganized, and collapsed almost instantly.

The shadow of defeat hangs over the hearts of the Yan Mo army.The main force that was attacking the city was affected and lost control of their emotions. After a few hasty copings, they turned around and retreated.

No matter how the officers stopped, beat and scolded them, they just had no intention of fighting, and only wanted to escape for their lives.

Temporary conscripted farmers and shepherds, can you expect them to be as hard-hearted as professional warriors, and come back under adversity?

The Shunyi army is a veteran who has fought for many years.When he saw the chaos in the camp at the end of the year, the morale of the army was fluctuating, and there were faint signs of collapse, he immediately seized the opportunity, mustered up his remaining courage, and rushed out shouting.

The last three hundred Shatuo cavalry also rushed out, and no one came to intercept them at this time.The loose Gamo tribe can fight with the wind, but once they fall into adversity, the first thing they think of is how to protect themselves.

It is true that a dead Taoist friend will not die a poor Taoist.

The Sogdians ran first, then the Long family, and then the Tuyuhun...

The unique survival wisdom of the vassal small tribes allowed them to see the crisis as quickly as possible.And their decisive escape was like the last straw that broke the camel's camel's back, which made Yan Mo feel helpless.

A big defeat is already doomed!
Coincidentally, the Gamo pastures and villages in the south of Liangzhou are also experiencing a major collapse at this time.

Knights with braided hair and faces are everywhere, wielding swords and spears, chasing and killing the fleeing Kamo, staying behind the old and weak.

So angry!

Zhe Bu Nian was riding a war horse, with blood dripping from the knife continuously.

He is a bloodthirsty person, especially when facing his old opponent for many years, Mo Mo, he can't restrain the urge to kill.

There must be only one victor between the Yanmo tribes and Liugu Tubo.The winner takes all, rule all the tribes, and become the master of Liangzhou.

The most powerful of the Liugu tribes is naturally the Zhebu tribe. In addition to the vassal tribes, there are more than [-] people. They live in the Yangfei Valley with abundant water and grass, and make a living by grazing animals.

Yangfei Valley is today's Jinta River Basin, with the Nanying Reservoir built. In the Tang Dynasty, there were many tributaries of the Jinta River, with lush water and grass. It is located in the transition zone between the southern mountains and the northern Wuwei Oasis.

In addition, there is Hongyuan Valley, which was recorded as Hongyuan Valley in Song Dynasty.In the second year of Empress Wu's holy calendar, Lun Zanpo led more than a thousand people to surrender.The Empress Dowager thought that General Youwei had ordered them to guard the Hongyuan Valley, which is located in today's Tianti Mountain and Huangyang River Valley.

Zhuanglang Valley is located in the area of ​​Zhuanglang River; East Dahe Valley is located in the area of ​​Dongda River Valley, a tributary of Jinchang River; West Dahe Valley is located in the area of ​​Xida River Valley, a tributary of Jinchang River; Haomen Valley is located in the area of ​​Zamu River Valley.

Among the six valleys, Yangfei Valley is the strongest, and the Zhebu clan ordered all parties to fight against the end of the valley.

The dispatch of troops this time can be said to have seized a golden opportunity.As soon as Yanmo was mobilized, this side already knew about it, and then quickly sent orders to all the ministries to gather all the manpower they could muster, gathered more than [-] people, and attacked the remaining Ganmo tribes, winning a brilliant victory.

The old opponent is about to be hit hard.Zhe Bu Nian is very happy, as long as these old, weak and livestock are collected and escorted back to Liugu, the offensive and defensive momentum of the two will be reversed, so happy!
It's a pity that the battle is not over yet!Zhe Bu Nian frowned.

There are too many people at the end, even if the main force is withdrawn, there are still many people left behind.If it wasn't for taking advantage of the sneak attack, and the elites brought over, it might not be so easy to win.

To end the battle as soon as possible!
Of course, this is just his unilateral idea, in fact it is very difficult.

The half-grazing and half-cultivating areas of Yanmo spread over a wide area, which is very similar to Liugube.Once the tribe is scattered, of course you have to divide your troops to attack, which greatly prolongs the combat time and makes the situation more chaotic and uncontrollable.

"Stop! Stop!" On the wilderness in the southeast of Liangzhou, the cavalry scattered and galloped, passing the order to the battalions.

The officers and soldiers of the Xinquan Army knew it well, and along the way they bumped into a lot of chasms fleeing for their lives.If you arrest him and interrogate him, you will know everything!
Worried about the arrival of the Tang army, Yan Mo took the initiative to gather troops and attack Liangzhou, intending to destroy the Shunyi army and deter the Tang army that might follow.

After the Tubo Liugu tribe knew about it, they hurriedly assembled more than [-] people, and quickly went northward to attack the old and weak tribes left behind.These Gamo people who were hit by the Xinquan army escaped after being killed.

This is really messy!
Wars between grassland tribes often involve rapid raids.This is actually a very deadly tactic, because they don't have city walls, they only rely on pastures and cattle and sheep, and the people live in a relatively scattered manner.In the absence of mobilization, the degree of organization is actually very low, and the resistance to surprise attacks is very low.

If one is not good, the tribe will be annexed by others. This has happened many times in history.

"Military envoy, where is the diversion going? Do you want to inform the troops of the tribe?" Fan He and Zhen Xu came hand in hand, looked at the pale old man, and asked.

"The situation is urgent, it's too late to notify them." Yang Yue's eyes were shining brightly, as if he could smell a bloody shark.

It was really too late to notify.

Marching on the border of Liangzhou, it is also a relatively cold season, and it is difficult for a large group of people to stay together, so they must march separately.However, there are thousands of cavalry from Qinzhou's Tubo Luma Department accompanying him. This is because the Xinquan Army has only 500 cavalry, and they were temporarily recruited.

"The mantis committed itself to the song and wanted to catch the cicada, but it didn't know that the oriole was beside it." Yang Yue laughed loudly, and said, "If it hits the old man's hand, I won't be polite."
