Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 793 Chapter 812: Invasion of the Japanese Kingdom (6500-word chapter, only this update today)
Garqinling fled for more than 30 miles with the defeated soldiers, and stopped when he saw that the Tang army finally stopped chasing them. Looking at the frustrated faces of the soldiers, Garqinling felt very uncomfortable. More than 3 horses were lost, but the morale of the entire army was wiped out by the Tang army. If they continue to fight, they can only kill themselves.

But he was not reconciled. Datang's development was too fast, and it was already so powerful. In five or ten years, it would be a piece of cake to destroy Tubo.

And the sending of troops this time is not a matter of his own country. Abbas also sent troops. Although Galqinling doesn't care about any allies, he knows the truth of his lips and teeth, so he must restrain Qinghai Wei and prevent Qinghai Wei from supporting Anxidu Protect the mansion, otherwise the Abbasid army will undoubtedly be defeated, and it will be very difficult for them to stand up at that time.

After thinking about it all night, early the next morning, Galqin Mausoleum re-invigorated morale on the school grounds, and then ordered the army to turn back and stop fifteen miles away from Qinghai Weicheng. What he has to do now is to station Here, keep an eye on Qinghaiwei, in case Qinghaiwei goes to support Anxi Dufu.

In the Acropolis of Qinghai, there was joy. After the victory, the troops were excited. Li Hao didn't expect the battle to be so easy. But Li Hao calmed down and thought about it, and immediately felt relieved. In fact, this is just like playing a game. Players have an advantage over diamond players, and the king's equipment and level crush the opponent. Even if there are three opponents, the king can kill the opponent.

However, early in the morning, the scouts came to report that the Tubo army had returned and camped fifteen miles outside the city, and there was no other action at present.

Fan Lihua was talking about the battle with Li Hao, and after hearing the report, Fan Lihua frowned and said, "They still don't give up."

Li Hao said: "Garqin Mausoleum is afraid that the Qinghai Guard will go to support the Anxi Protectorate, which means that the situation in the Anxi Protectorate is not optimistic. It is not too late. I have to go to support." go.

Fan Lihua suddenly called out: "You..."

Li Hao suddenly turned his head to look at her with a smile, and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Fan Lihua was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Be careful, swords and guns have no eyes."

Li Zhi smiled slightly: "Understood." After saying that, he turned and left.

Li Hao left the city with an army of [-] Tiance Mansions and headed east directly. He was going to the train station. If he wanted to quickly support the Anxi Protectorate Mansion, he naturally had to take the train.

The Garqin Mausoleum soon received a report that [-] troops from the city came out and headed east.

Garqin Mausoleum hastily dispatched [-] troops to pursue them until they reached the railway station, where they were ambushed by Li Hao and the others, killing and injuring thousands of people, so they hurriedly fled. Li Hao took the army onto the train and roared away.

Garqin Mausoleum was very annoyed, so he ordered to completely surround the Qinghai Weicheng, absolutely not allowing the Tang army to support the Anxi Dufu Mansion. The iron rail car of the Tang Dynasty made him depressed, and the speed of that thing was too fast. Carrying troops and horses was fast and numerous, and they couldn't stop them at all. He knew that this was the power of science and technology. Although he had sent people to the Tang Dynasty to learn technology, so far, the people he sent were still studying the factor in Tubo. Decomposition, those strange characters, no matter how you look at it, it feels that it has nothing to do with creating these things.

Sanmishan Tingzhou, this used to be the royal court of the Western Turks, the houses and palaces here are already in the western classical architectural style, Su Dingfang doesn't know much about those Gothic and Baroque styles, anyway, he doesn't care, he What I care about is the Abbasid army besieging the city. The Abbasid army has been besieging the city for six days. There are 20 left, and Abbas's [-] army also lost [-].

On the seventh day, Li Hao arrived with an army of [-] Tiance Mansions. The commander-in-chief sent by Abbas this time was Yang Fan. After finding out the truth of the opponent, he has always been cautious in using troops.

Li Hao saw that the enemy had retreated, so he gave up his plan to pursue and led the army into the city.

Seeing that Li Hao personally led the army to help, Su Dingfang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were only [-] reinforcements, there was no problem in defending the city.

Su Dingfang welcomed Li Hao to the mansion, and also gave Li Hao the main position. He sat in the deputy position, and the other generals sat in two rows.

Li Hao asked: "General Su, what is the origin of the opponent's coach?"

Su Dingfang said: "The commander of the Abbasid army is named Yang Fan, who was once a general of the Western Turks."

"Oh, it's Yang Fan." Li Hao raised his eyebrows when he heard the words. Yang Fan naturally knew that the big villain in the Sui and Tang Dynasties is still a villain now. He thought about it, and then asked, "How is this Yang Fan good at fighting?"

"Very powerful." Su Dingfang said solemnly, "This person's style of marching and fighting is somewhat similar to yours, King Qiongnan."

"Oh?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and asked curiously, "It's somewhat similar to me, how do you say that?"

Su Dingfang said: "This person marches and fights, and he also likes to make moves that do not follow common sense."

Li Hao frowned when he heard this, and said in displeasure: "It's unreasonable, what is he, he dares to play cards against common sense, this is my exclusive, I'm the protagonist!"

The generals looked at each other when they heard the words, Su Dingfang looked embarrassed, he knew Li Hao better, and knew that Li Hao committed another crime.

Next, Li Hao and the generals began to discuss the strategy of defeating the enemy. Li Hao proposed to send people to go around the enemy's rear and burn their food and grass. Su Dingfang disagreed. This plan was too risky. With Yang Fan's cautious personality, the food and grass must be protected Extremely strict, how can it be so burnt.

But Li Hao is very confident. His special forces have been silent for a long time, and the sword will rust if it is hidden in the scabbard for too long. It is time for them to play a role. Only by performing such difficult special tasks can they The value of special forces.

Li Hao insisted on this strategy, Su Dingfang had no choice but to follow, and then specially selected more than 500 elite cavalry, ready to let them burn food and grass, but Li Hao said no, just send fifty of his own special forces. up.

When he heard that only 50 people were sent to sneak attack on grain and grass, he felt that this was too child's play, 50 people would be of great use, but then he thought again, Li Hao has never used common sense to make moves, since he wants to do this, let him Go ahead, even if you lose 50 people, it's not a big deal.

This time, there were 100 special forces who came with Li Hao, two teams, the captains were Feiying and Li Fox.

Li Hao handed over the task of attacking grain and grass to Li Fox's team. After receiving the order, Li Hao immediately led people to make preparations, and set off after dark.

The reason why special forces are called special forces is because they always perform special tasks behind enemy lines, and their qualities are far superior to ordinary arms.

Li Hao's special forces have not only undergone hellish training, but also performed countless seemingly impossible tasks. Moreover, now Li Hao has equipped each of them with night vision devices, and the night is their world.

Li Huhu and the others rode their horses around in a big circle and galloped for fifty miles. Li Huhu suddenly called out: "Stop! There are enemy scouts ahead!"

Everyone was wearing night vision goggles, and they didn't find the enemy scouts. After looking carefully for a while, they realized that there was a person lying in the grass on the grass, seven or eight miles away from them. Hard to find.

Li Hu took out the crossbow, dismounted and ran forward quickly. After a while, Li Hu came back, got on his horse and said, "The scouts have been dealt with, let's move on!"

They met more than a dozen scouts along the way. In the dark night, the range of sight of these scouts is extremely limited, but Li Fox and the others have night vision devices, which are almost invincible. They easily dealt with all the scouts and came quietly. Arrived outside the logistics barracks of the Abbasid army.

Li Fox and the others changed into the military uniforms of the scouts outside the camp, and then let those who had changed into the camp first, and solved some sentry posts, while others went in one after another.

Finally, they came to the side of the granary, where countless pointed granaries were erected. Li Huhu made a gesture, and everyone quietly dispatched to deal with all the sentry posts secretly, and then quickly poured oil around each granary and lit the fire at the same time.

The granary is easy to catch fire, not to mention the oil. The fire quickly reached the height of a person, and the camp became bright. When the water came to put out the fire, Li Huhu and the others hid in the dark and kept shooting the soldiers who came to fight the fire with fast crossbows, trying to delay the time as much as possible to make the fire burn bigger. If they really let them put out the fire, then their work would be wasted.

The enemy quickly found them, and a large group of people rushed towards their hiding place. All the special forces took out new grenades, pulled the fuse and threw them out. There was an explosion among the crowd, and a dazzling light was emitted in the dark night. Countless figures were seen When it was blown up, there was a loud bang, shaking the sky and shaking the earth, which frightened the Abbasid army into stupidity.

The progress of Datang's science and technology will naturally be applied to the military. The grenade is the latest weapon developed. It will explode when the fuse is pulled. It is much more convenient to use. It is no longer like before.

Each of them only brought six grenades, and after each of them threw three, the whole camp was in chaos, and the sound of the explosion attracted everyone to this side.

Li Huhu saw that the fire was big enough, and shouted: "Get out!"

Then everyone took out grenades and threw them into the granary. The granary was on fire. When the grenade was blown up, the sky suddenly seemed to be raining fire. Countless thatch was blown into the sky and fell with flames, bringing the surrounding tents with them. It was also ignited, and the fire began to spread, and it was the rain of fire that frightened the enemy troops back again and again, giving Li Fox and the others enough opportunities to climb over the high fence of the barracks and escape into the darkness.

Early the next morning, Yang Fan received bad news as soon as he woke up. The grain and grass in the rear were burned by the Tang army. Yang Fan was shocked when he heard the news.

He had sent more than 8000 people to guard the grain and grass camp, and there were scouts all the way to investigate the movement within a radius of tens of miles.

Yang Fan ordered to investigate how much food was left in the army, and reported to him after the count was completed. Soon, the quartermaster came to report that the food in the army was only enough for ten days.

Yang Fan gritted his teeth and was furious when he heard the words. He didn't expect Tang Jun to be so cunning that he burned his food and grass. Siege, there should be hope to win the city, but the loss may be relatively heavy.

Yang Fan thought about it again and again, and felt that he could only forcefully attack the city, and the price would be high, so he should attack it first, otherwise he would really have to go back home.

Yang Fan immediately ordered that the whole army attack the city and encircle the city, and at the same time send people to the four towns of Anxi to search for food and grass, and send as much as possible, which is better than nothing.

This time Yang Fan decided to break the boat, mobilized all the troops and siege equipment, and attacked very violently. Li Hao and Su Dingfang personally went to the top of the city to direct and supervise the battle. As soon as Li Hao appeared on the city wall, Tang Jun was very excited, especially those four Wan Tiance's mansion was as if it had been beaten with chicken blood, and it was terribly brave. The battle lasted for more than four hours from morning to evening. Under the city wall, there was a thick layer of corpses. The river had been stained red with blood, and the Abbasid army attacked the city wall again and again, only to be killed and retreated.

Finally, Yang Fan ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops. He gave up. Why, because there was no hope, this battle was more tragic than his imagination. Now only 18 of the 3 troops were left, and the [-] troops were buried behind the city wall However, there are still more than [-] people left in the Tang army. How can we fight this battle? If we continue to fight, he will become a poor commander.

Standing at the top of the city, Li Hao saw Yang Fan withdrawing his troops, and snorted coldly with a gloomy face: "Want to withdraw? Do you think this is a place where you come and walk whenever you want! Pass my military order, and the cavalry of Tiance Mansion will go out of the city to pursue , my sons, your knives haven't drunk enough barbarian blood!"

"Roar!" The only remaining [-] Tiance Mansion's army roared excitedly, rushed down to the top of the city extremely quickly and formed a formation, their actions were extremely fast.

The gate of the city opened, the suspension bridge fell, and the army of Tiance Mansion entered a group of fierce tigers, rushing towards the army of Abbas.

Yang Fan was walking back with the army at this moment, more than ten miles away from Tingzhou City, when he suddenly heard thunderous hoofbeats from behind, he was startled, and someone from the rear immediately came up to report: "Commander! Tang Jun has come out of the city to chase and kill !"

Yang Fan frowned suddenly when he heard the words, and asked, "How many people?"

"Thirty thousand heavy cavalry!"

"Thirty thousand heavy armored cavalry?" Yang Fan frowned suddenly, pondering, should he withdraw his troops and flee or fight back?
Tang Jun came very quickly, and there was not much time left for him to think about it. On the battlefield, the information was ever-changing. This is what he was talking about, and time was very important.

And Yang Fan is also experienced in many battles, and he is the best at making decisions. He quickly made a decision to withdraw. Since the Tang army dared to chase out of the city, it must have something to rely on, and the morale of the Tang army is now high. , but once defeated, even his own life will be lost, which is too risky.

In fact, when it comes to military strategy, Yang Fan and Garqin Mausoleum are brothers, but Yang Fan is more selfish. His first thought is to save his own life, so at this time, he made the right decision. Because once he turns back, it is estimated that it is really over.

Yang Fan fled with the army, but the Tang army was chasing after him, and soon caught up. After Yang Fan decisively left [-] infantry behind, all [-] infantry were beheaded. Li Hao then ordered to clean up the battlefield. Camp on the spot.When the food and grass arrived tomorrow, he was going to go west and take back the four towns of Anxi.

Yang Fan fled westward with his troops, only [-] left in the army. He stationed in Wanzhou (formerly Dawan), and then sent a battle report to Osman, reporting the news of the defeat, and asking Ottoman to send troops for support.

After preparing food and grass for three days, Li Hao marched westward with an army of [-]. He wanted to conquer the four towns of Anxi. The four towns of Anxi are no longer the four towns of Anxi in history. Xun) and Yuezhou (former Yuezhi Kingdom).

The three towns of Anzhou, Xunzhou, and Yuezhou form an arc, firmly protecting the territory of the Anxi Protectorate, and Wanzhou, as the military and political center of the Anxi Protectorate, controls and supports these three states from the rear. It is very strong, so the four towns of Anxi must be brought back, otherwise there will be no peace in the Western Regions.

Li Hao led his troops all the way to Wanzhou and ordered to attack the city. Numerous bed crossbows and catapults were fired together. It seemed that it was raining in Wanzhou. , the Abbasid army could only shrink under the battlements, not daring to fight back.

Li Hao cherished the lives of his soldiers and was not in a hurry to send people to climb the city. He used bed crossbows and catapults to suppress firepower.

For seven consecutive days, Li Hao used bed crossbows and catapults to shoot towards the city for two hours every day, but he did not send troops to attack the city. If we use the saying of the future world, this is called, first the artillery fires open the way, and then the army attacks. It is a very expensive way of fighting, but both Li Hao and Datang are very rich.

Yang Fan felt a little bit broken. For seven days, Li Hao didn't send a single soldier, just suppressing with such firepower. Although the loss was huge, it was not useless. At least the city wall was smashed to pieces, and many battlements were destroyed. It collapsed, and in the past few days, more than 5000 enemy troops were hit by arrows and flying stones, and those who were hit by bed crossbows and catapults were disabled even if they were only touched.

Yang Fan couldn't take it anymore, and led his army to abandon the city and fled to Anzhou. Li Hao led his army to chase after Anzhou. After releasing the arrow, you can pick it up and continue to use it. As long as you can take down the city, the crossbow stone is still your own, so what are you afraid of?

Li Hao had another blow in Anzhou, and Yang Fan was beaten to escape again, and this time he fled to Xunzhou. Now he feels like a mouse, being driven around by Li Hao, aggrieved, but he really Not reconciled to withdrawing like this, taking the four towns of Anxi is his greatest contribution in this battle, is it going to be obliterated like this, why hasn't Osman sent reinforcements yet?

In fact, Osman was so angry a long time ago, how could it be possible to send him reinforcements, the 20 army was ruined by Yang Fan, and there was only a little left, that was nearly half of their national strength, and they lost the 20 troops The army will be a huge blow to Abbas. If Datang takes the opportunity to retaliate now, what will he do and what will he use to resist it.

Li Hao came to Xunzhou, looked at the enemy army at the head of Xunzhou city, smacked his lips helplessly, and murmured: "What's wrong with Yang Fan, he just refused to return to the country after running around. Sending troops to destroy Tubo or Abbas is not a waste of my time, really."

Now Li Hao really doesn't have much interest in fighting, there's nothing he can do about it, it's like the God of Gamblers doesn't want to play cards with a rookie, it's so boring.

Yang Fan fled back and forth like this, like a rat crossing the street, embarrassed, the extremely bored Li Hao suddenly became playful, wanted to see how long he could last, and played hide-and-seek with him.

It has to be said that Yang Fan still has a bit of brains, and he is very familiar with the terrain around the four towns of Anxi. He can escape successfully every time, but every time he escapes, thousands of soldiers will die.

For two and a half months, Yang Fan lasted for two and a half months. His vitality was comparable to that of Immortal Xiaoqiang, but now there were only 1 people left in his army. In the end, he also knew that it was impossible for reinforcements to come. After being caught, he finally dispelled the slight unwillingness in his heart, and withdrew back to Abbas.

Li Hao immediately sent a battle report back to Chang'an, and asked Su Dingfang to immediately recruit new soldiers to guard the four towns of Anxi.

Due to the bombardment of Li Hao's crossbow stones, the city walls of the four towns of Anxi were seriously damaged. Li Hao brought a large army here to help repair the city walls. Countless trucks transported cement, steel bars and stones to cast the city walls. Not only are they strong, but they are also fast. .

After waiting for half a month, the imperial decree from Chang'an came to invite Li Hao back to Chang'an.

Li Hao took the train back to Chang'an from Tingzhou with the army. When he was passing through Qinghai, he got off the car and went to Qinghaiwei to visit Fan Lihua and ask about the battle situation. Fan Lihua told him that she had led troops out of the city to attack more than two months ago. After retreating the Tubo army, if there was no order from the imperial court, she would definitely have pursued it to the Tubo mainland.

Li Hao stayed here for a day, then returned to Chang'an, Fan Lihua personally sent him to the train station.

As soon as Li Hao returned to Chang'an City, Xu You, the head of the internal servants, came to preach and let him enter the palace to have an audience.

Li Hao didn't dare to neglect, he first handed over the military power, and then went to Tai Chi Palace.

In the Ganlu Hall, Li Zhi frowned and looked at a row of memorials on the table. Li Hao came in and saluted in the center of the hall: "My subject, Li Hao, pays homage to the emperor."

"Poetry Man, you are back!" Li Zhi raised his head and looked at Li Hao in surprise, and said eagerly, "It's great that you are back, the Japanese country has invaded my Tang Dynasty!"

"Waguo?" Li Hao frowned when he heard the words. It seemed that the plan for the Western Expedition was going to be delayed, and Waguo dared to invade. Naturally, this disgusting island country was dealt with first.

Li Zhi walked up to Li Hao with several memorials in hand, handed the memorials to Li Hao himself, and said solemnly, "Look, this is the memorials sent from Jiangnan and Silla."

Li Hao took the memorabilia with both hands, and immediately flipped through it. He was startled when he saw it.

The Wa Kingdom made a big move this time. They sent 50 troops to suddenly attack Silla Jincheng. Yuchi Baolin was caught off guard and fled to the north. More than [-] large ships all fell into the hands of the Wa people. They also sent [-] troops to raid the south of the Yangtze River. The six states and counties of Chang, Su, Hu, Hang, Yue, and Taiwan in Jiangnan Road were all captured by the Japanese.

At this moment, Li Zhi said depressedly: "It is said that I am invincible in the army of the Tang Dynasty. Why did a small Japanese country take over six states and counties in the Tang Dynasty in seven days? You are a poet... Is it true that I am not a good emperor?" .”

"This is indeed His Majesty's fault." Li Hao said frankly, "In fact, I have already said that if we want to build more navy, we should set up an additional navy in Taizhou or Hangzhou. The defenses in the coastal areas are weak, and if the enemy makes a surprise attack from the sea, they will surely hit us hard."

"I know I was wrong. I should have listened to your advice." Li Zhi said, "Now let's drive out the Japanese pirates first, and then talk about adding a navy."

Li Hao nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I propose to summon General Fan Lihua to return to Chang'an immediately and fight against the Japanese together with the minister. This time, it is not just as simple as driving the Japanese country out, we must also fight to the Japanese country. After the turmoil in the Japanese country Sometimes they came to curry favor with us, but now their country is stable, and when they see Abbas and Tubo attacking us, they want to take advantage of the fire! I have said long ago that the Japanese are a despicable people and should be exterminated!"

"Yes!" Li Zhi nodded vigorously, "Shi Kuang is right, such a country cannot be kept, it must be destroyed!"
