Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2625 The Eve of the Great War
Half a month later, Hulis arrived at Broken Edge Cliff with his troops.

Duan Ren Cliff is very high, but the area above it is not very large, so there can't be many soldiers in ambush, and only [-] soldiers and horses will be determined.

So, after Hulis arrived here, he mobilized [-] soldiers and horses, asked them to climb up the Duanyan Cliff, and prepared some boulders on it. As long as the Tang army passed by here, they would throw down the boulders. Tang Jun was smashed to death a lot.

At that time, Tang Jun had no choice but to retreat.

The remaining [-] soldiers and horses set up camp behind the Duanren Cliff.

If the [-] soldiers on the Duanren Cliff repel the Tang army, then everything will be fine, but if they fail, they will intercept the Tang army again at the exit of the Duanren Cliff.

Duan Ren Cliff was not very wide, and only five or six people could pass side by side. If they blocked it with sharp arrows or other tools, Tang Jun would have to pay a heavy price if he wanted to rush out, or even they would not be able to get out at all.

According to Hulisi's arrangement, they would have no problem defeating Tang Jun.

After doing this, it has been about ten days.

On the side of the Tang army, starting from the Protectorate of the Western Regions, they finally came to the border of the Great Food Kingdom.

This time is already February.

However, February here still carries a deep chill, and even occasionally there will be a heavy snowfall.

It's very cold here, and it's a bit unbearable. If Datang hadn't already had antifreeze medicine on his hands or body, many of them might lose their combat effectiveness due to the cold.

This cold weather will continue for another month.

And they, in half a month, may face a big battle.

After entering the territory of Dashi Kingdom, they did not encounter many obstacles.

Under the 20 troops of the Tang army, no one dared to confront the Tang army head-on, so some cities in the Dashi Kingdom they passed by could be said to have abandoned the city and surrendered.

If they don't want to die, they can only surrender.

Therefore, there was not much delay along the way.

In mid-February, the chill in the weather turned to cool.

It feels a little more comfortable.

And at this time, they were only one day away from Duan Ren Cliff.

When night came, the Tang army set up camp.

"General, according to reports from our spies, the Great Food Kingdom has about a hundred thousand troops stationed behind the Duan Ren Cliff. The Duan Ren Cliff is not easy to pass through, and they may have set up traps there."

A soldier told Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu about the news they found out. After Cheng Chumo and the others listened, their eyes narrowed slightly.

"After the Great Food Kingdom was defeated by us, they must be afraid of our Great Tang. They dare not fight with us, but they have to fight. In this way, there is a great possibility that they will lie in ambush at the Duanren Cliff. We have to be careful."

Qin Huaiyu looked at the crowd and expressed his opinion. He is a very cautious person.

After he finished speaking, Cheng Chumo and Yuchi Baolin also nodded in agreement.

They are now accountable for every decision they make, so it's not a bad thing to be cautious.

"Order the servants, let the soldiers rest well, and make plans after arriving at the Duanren Cliff."

Cheng Chumo ordered, and all the generals retreated immediately.
-
A day later, Cheng Chumo and the others arrived in front of Duanren Cliff with their soldiers and horses. At this time, dusk was just about to fall, and the setting sun still had its afterglow in the distance.

"Old Qin, do you think that at this time, should we pass the Duan Ren Cliff, or not pass the Duan Ren Cliff?"

Looking at the Duanren Cliff in the distance, Cheng Chu silently looked at Qin Huaiyu and asked, Qin Huaiyu thought for a moment, and said: "We don't know how the Great Food Kingdom set up an ambush, why don't we send some soldiers and horses to test it out? If it is dangerous, step back immediately, what do you think?"

Such an approach would be relatively safer, and a test would also allow them to understand the arrangement of the Great Food Kingdom here, so that they could find a way to solve this problem.

Of course, the only bad thing is that the person who goes to test it may be very dangerous, which is a matter of narrow escape.

However, after thinking for a while, Cheng Chumo immediately nodded in agreement and said, "This is a good idea. I will lead ten thousand soldiers and horses to test it later."

This matter is very dangerous. If the soldiers are only allowed to take risks, then the soldiers must feel uncomfortable, and this will have a certain impact on their next battles.

If you want the soldiers to work for you, then you have to take the lead and let them know that you are fighting the enemy just like them, so that they will not be timid.

These are what they learned from fighting with Qin Tian, ​​because every time they fight, Qin Tian takes the lead. If they really want to lose the battle or die, they, the generals, will die first.

It was very dangerous, Cheng Chumo was going, Qin Huaiyu and Yuchi Baolin were naturally very reluctant, but they didn't say anything, not because they didn't want to say it, but because they couldn't.

For this matter, there must be someone to lead the team. This is war, and everyone is taking risks.

In order to win this battle, they will encounter the same danger in the future, and they will not back down either.

"be careful."

Qin Huaiyu told Cheng Chumo, although it was only a short sentence, it was enough for Cheng Chumo. The brothers and sisters had faced many dangers, and they knew that words were nothing more than superficial comfort. Just worry about the other person.

After saying this, Cheng Chumo immediately summoned [-] soldiers and horses, and followed him to explore Duanren Cliff. ,

Because Cheng Chumo was going too, [-] soldiers were easily summoned. For these soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, even a Fu Shuai like Cheng Chumo went to take risks in person, so what are these little soldiers afraid of?

In terms of delicacy, they are simply incomparable to Cheng Chumo, they are not afraid, so naturally they are not.

After the [-] soldiers and horses assembled, they rushed directly into the Duanren Cliff at dusk.

The sky hadn't completely dimmed yet, but the Duanren Cliff was darker than the outside. The cold wind was blowing here, and the sound was like a person's whimpering.

Just as they rushed into the Duanren Cliff, a spy from the Dashi Kingdom immediately got the news and sent it over in a hurry.

After Hulis got the news, his eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't expect Datang to be so cautious and only sent [-] soldiers. Obviously, they were trying to test it out.

However, no matter whether Datang wanted to test or what, he wasn't worried.

"When they arrive at the location, I will crush them to death."
