Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

"Kill!"

"Once we've taken the city, all the women will be ours!"

"Hey hey hey!"

The two groups of cavalrymen were not afraid at all and rushed forward carelessly!
"Boom boom boom!"

The soil here is relatively hard. Even though the terrain is not very good, more than 2,000 horses stepped on it together.
It seemed as if even the earth was shaking!
The common people who lived near the north gate in the city, those who were not sleeping soundly,

Everyone woke up after hearing the noise.

"What happened?"

“I don’t know!”

"Enemy attack?"

They all ran into the yard and talked in low voices, but before the matter became clear, they were all tactful and did not run out of the house.

There was anxiety in the city, and the voices of fear could be heard outside the city!

This made Umodo even more excited, and he raised the big square knife and started shouting.

"Brothers, those two-legged sheep are really defenseless, kill them!"

"Rush over!"

A group of people also started shouting, looking quite excited!
The city gate was still extremely quiet, as if there was really no one guarding it!
The Turks were even more proud and urged their horses to gallop. When they were about thirty or forty steps away from the city gate...
"Bang bang!"

Suddenly, several cannon shots were heard, as if exploding next to my ears!

"Xilulu!"

This sudden scene frightened the horses, and they kept neighing.

"No, there's an ambush!"

The ferocious smile on Umodo's face suddenly froze. He wanted to turn his horse around and retreat, but it was too late!
"Humph! Come as you please and leave as you please? It's not that easy!"

A cold snort sounded from the city wall!
The ground that the more than 2,000 Turkic cavalry were standing on suddenly collapsed, and more than half of them fell into the trap...
"what!"

"Help!"

The trap contained extremely sharp spikes, which were long and dense. Once someone fell into it, both the person and the horse would be pierced through!
If an ordinary person falls down, how can he end up well?
Many people let out shrill screams!

Resounding throughout the night sky!

In just a moment, the two groups of cavalry suffered heavy losses, with more than 500 people killed on the spot and another 700 to 800 people suffering varying degrees of injuries.

Umodo also fell into the trap, but he was lucky and his reaction was quick, so he was only pierced in the shoulder blade.
Blood gushed out from the horrible wound!
When he finally climbed out, he saw the tragic scene in front of him and was furious. He said in hatred:

"You bastards! I will chop off your heads!"

I am so hateful!
He wanted to rush into the city with a knife and chop all those ignorant "two-legged sheep" to pieces, so that those beasts would understand.
It's your own fault!
Before he could stand up, there was another sound of breaking through the air.
"Whoosh whoosh!"

A dense rain of arrows came, a large part of which was wrapped in blazing flames, and was shot towards this area.

"boom!"

Only a creepy voice was heard, and soon, under the quiet night sky
The sea of ​​fire rises!

The fire immediately illuminated the night sky, covering the more than 2,000 cavalrymen, and the circle of fire seemed to be shrinking.

"Fast-fire gasoline! There's flaming gasoline here! Run!" someone exclaimed.

"Run!"

"Don't push me!"

They all lost their previous arrogance, and were instead filled with fear and wailing.

How can you stay calm when you are surrounded by this sea of ​​fire and attacked by rain of arrows from time to time?
Umodo struggled to stand up and wanted to stabilize his position, but suddenly, a sound of breaking air rang in his ears.

"puff!"

The sound of a sharp blade entering flesh was heard!

His eyes were full of astonishment. He lowered his head with an expression of disbelief and looked at the arrow stuck in his chest.

"Plop~"

Finally, the once famous "guillotine" on the grassland fell on this yellow land!
Until his death, he could not close his eyes!
Don't rest your eyes!

On the other side, when Yi Nan Khan saw the scene not far away, he was furious. He gritted his teeth and said bitterly:
"How outrageous! Too outrageous! Those beasts are courting death!"

Just now, in order to set an example and also to show his magnanimity, he sent his subordinates out.

That is
The two thousand soldiers who were ambushed were all his men!
And judging from the situation, it is very likely that the whole army will be wiped out!

How can I bear this?
"Since we already know the strength of the city, Khan! Why don't we just take Shuofang in one fell swoop and avenge our dead brothers!"

"That's right! Let's let those ignorant sheep know how powerful we Turks are!"

"Too arrogant!"

All the generals of Yi Nan started to make a commotion, but the small Khans of the tribes remained silent and stood aside.

On the surface, they obeyed Yi Nan's orders, but each of them had their own ulterior motives and plans. Some even looked timid and had already started to back down.

The son doesn't feel sorry for selling his father's land!
It is not impossible that this Yi man, in a fit of rage for revenge, would put everyone in desperate situations!

Why would they choose to die instead of being Khans?

"Everyone, weren't you urging us just now? What do you think? Do you want to send troops together now?" Yi Nan said in a cold voice.

Seeing the appearance of these guys, he understood something and sneered in his heart.

They are a bunch of fence-sitters. When he conquers the grassland one day, he will kill all these spineless people to prevent them from tarnishing the reputation of the Turks.

"Now is not the time to complain! Judging from the sound of arrows, there are not many defenders in the city. Although the situation has changed, we have come all the way here, and we cannot return empty-handed!"

Sansaya spoke up.

He is old and has a lot of experience, not to mention his qualifications and reputation.

Yi Nan can't compare with him at all.

Now even he had spoken, and the others also expressed their opinions. They simply rushed over together and took down Shuofang first.

Seeing that his limelight was stolen, Yinan Khan was somewhat unhappy, but he could not say much, after all, it was this old guy...

I helped myself out of the predicament and made the situation less embarrassing!
After reorganizing the troops and deploying them in battle formation, the group launched the first wave of offensive with 10,000 elite soldiers under Yi Nan as the vanguard.

Inside Shuofang City.

Waves of dense footsteps were heard, and the soldiers arrived at the north gate one after another.

Liang Luoren sat firmly on the city wall, issuing orders in an orderly manner. The thick city gate was also slowly closed!

A fierce battle is about to begin!

The common people finally understood what was happening, and were all shocked to learn that the Turks were actually blocking the border and invading.

Since the Tang Dynasty conquered the Eastern Turks, Shuofang City has changed from a border town to an inconspicuous small town.

Who would have thought that someone would rebel in the territory that had just been conquered?
The common people on the border were extremely brave and many of them immediately ran to the top of the city wall to help defend the city.

"Boom boom boom!"

This time the sound of horse hooves was much more intense than before. With the light from the sea of ​​fire over there, the people on the city wall could also vaguely see...
A large group of people is approaching!
"Enemy attack!"

"kill!"

Half an hour later, Li Qiu led hundreds of people and arrived not far from Shuofang City. From here, they could just see the entire battlefield.

Those Turkic troops, in large numbers, were attacking the city gate fiercely!

Judging from the current situation, Shuofang will not be lost for a while!
"Your Majesty, we must..." Gao Shun said.

Li Kuan shook his head:

"The enemy is very aggressive right now, so it's not advisable to fight them."

"Wait!"

The first push is strong, the second is weak, the third is exhausted!
The morale of the Turkic barbarians is now at its highest!
If you run up there now, you will definitely get into trouble and most likely won't end well.

After all, there is a huge gap in power between the enemy and us!

When these guys' fighting spirit is almost worn out, if we show up again at that time, we will surely reap miraculous results.

After all, Shuofang still has a city wall of 70 to 80 feet high. With the few troops in front of us,
It is not an easy task to break into the city in a short period of time.

According to the intelligence, the Xueyantuo came with great force this time, claiming to have a population of 100,000, but Li Qiu estimated that it should be around 70,000 to 80,000.

When fighting a war these days, people generally prefer to exaggerate the number of their own troops so as to confuse the enemy and mislead them.

What we want is the momentum that sweeps across the world!
And once the number of people increases, it will easily cause inexplicable pressure on the other party!

Chen Qian, Zhou Zheng, Gao Shun and others saw that His Majesty had already made a decision, so of course they didn't say anything more, and they all calmly stood aside.
Recharge your batteries!

After showing off his charm for a while, Eunuch Cao moved to another place.

He also ordered his men to keep an eye on these people...

He rushed to the city wall!
"How is it? Did the fierce fire oil work? Hehe, this is the method that His Majesty came up with, I think it can't be that bad!"

He asked impatiently before he even ran over.

Shuofang was originally a border town, and Liang Shidu had been stationed here for more than ten years, so it had a series of defensive facilities.

Take those traps for example, they were originally dug in the past, but they have never been used!

After learning about the situation in Shuofang City, Li Kuan simply made a modification, asking them to bury spikes in the trap and then pour kerosene around it to...
BBQ stall!
After the enemy falls into the ambush circle, first make them lose their composure, then shoot them with flaming arrows!

Of course, it wasn't just this one defensive facility. Li Kuan also made some tinkering with a few of them, and at least the power was greatly enhanced.

The defense of Shuofang City has been greatly improved!
"Your Majesty, this method is really amazing. It killed those guys on the spot! Unexpectedly, more than two thousand cavalrymen were annihilated in the first battle!"

A strong man with a beard said with a smile.

This man is called Shi Ming, and he is also a capable man under Eunuch Cao!
Most of the Hundred Riders are composed of the palace guards, so quite a few of them are from the Black Armor Army!
Shi Ming was once a general in the Black Armor Army and was also very brave. Now he was assigned to this place by Commander Li.
Help Liang Luoren defend the city!
Liang Luoren transferred thousands of soldiers from the camp west of the city!

This group of people was originally loyal to the Liang family, and without the restraint of Liang Shidu, they would definitely all obey Liang Luoren's command.

Besides, they are now soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Fighting against the Turks and defending their country is their job, isn’t it?

So Liang Luoren didn’t put in much effort!

"Greetings, Commander-in-Chief!" Liang Luoren also bowed politely after seeing Eunuch Cao.

"It's nothing, it's nothing! Tell me, what's the situation over there? Are those guys going to lose their composure?" Eunuch Cao said with a smile.

"Is such that…."

Liang Luoren was more familiar with the situation, so he gave a brief account.

After a while, Eunuch Cao also understood the situation here and nodded: "Let's continue like this. We just need to defend the city. As for those guys, someone will take care of them!"

Solemnly promise!

Anyone else?
Li Kuan? Your Majesty?
These words couldn't help but make Liang Luoren have some associations.

In the past few days, he also followed the instructions of Eunuch Cao and carried out renovations in those abandoned defense facilities, either openly or secretly.

I have to say, those methods are all really effective!
Just now it has achieved miraculous results!

However, he was not quite sure who did this.

"Great Commander, is it possible?"

Liang Luoren was a little hesitant.

Could it be him coming?
That's a bit scary!

"Haha! That's right, he's here too! I guess he's outside the city right now."

Eunuch Cao nodded slightly, smiling, looking as if he was sure of victory.

He heard it too.
There is news that a group of righteous men have come to Yanzhou to surrender, and these men are quite powerful and are now under the command of Li Kuan!
Although there are only about 500 people, it is still a considerable help!

After getting the affirmation, Liang Luoren was shocked and the expression on his face was quite complicated.

I'm afraid that even if Master Liang racked his brains, he would never know that he thought he was a chess player, but in the end, his plans had already been seen through by others, and his every move...
Completely under the control of others!

In other words, they are just a bunch of clowns who can't cause any trouble!
Liang Luoren also breathed a sigh of relief, for his original decision

So fortunate!

An extremely fierce battle was still going on in front of the city gate.

The Xueyantuo's troops could not be compared with the Eastern Turks during their heyday. At least they didn't even have siege equipment.

I just rushed over there noisily.
Human wave tactics!

After learning that there was someone in charge, Liang Luoren felt relieved and calmly commanded his soldiers to give the enemy a head-on blow.

Time passed slowly, and Li Kuan led a group of people and secretly went behind the enemy's line under the cover of night!
