The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 638: Provoking the Western Region Allied Forces
After arguing for a whole night, these people could not come up with a solution. General Kang Ying did not count on them anymore and quickly sent people back to deliver the message. However, the northwest was too vast. Even at the fastest speed, It will take nearly ten days to go back and forth, and that's if nothing happens on the way. If there is a blockade, it's hard to say where your letter will be sent.

The Tang army did not give them time to wait. On the fifth day after their discussion, the first Tang army left the border. Niu Jinda implemented Li Xiang's instructions and dispatched nearly 2000 people.

He searched for several days but could not find the weakness of the Western Region Allied Forces, so he sent our people to provoke them. As long as the Western Regions Allied Forces were dissatisfied, we would immediately start to attack them. Anyway, we carried a large number of firearms. If If the people from the Western Region Allied Forces want to try it, we can definitely arrange it for them.

Niu Jinda just wanted to give them a show. Although there are more than 2000 of you, we only have 2000, but we 2000 are not afraid of you. If there is a fight, we [-] may not be unable to win.

Li Xiang really admires Niu Jinda's courage, but Li Xiang is still ready. Once the reserve team sends a signal for help from Niu Jinda, our people will immediately go out to respond. 5000 people will definitely be no problem. of.

Li Xiang is not very old, but he is still an old man on the battlefield. He has already compiled the data from various battlefields. To deal with these troops armed with cold weapons, we can definitely achieve one to ten. If our number exceeds If it's five thousand, it can be [-]:[-] to [-]:[-].

Although there are more than [-] people in the Western Region Allied Forces, they belong to more than a dozen countries. Each country does not belong to each other at all, so they will not cooperate with each other. If there is a war, there will be things that undermine each other. It might happen, so Li Xiang is not worried about Niu Jinda, but he is worried about another thing.

Mr. Zhao made it very clear to Li Xiang that the countries in the Western Regions now fear us as they fear tigers. Even if we have any excessive demands, the countries in the Western Regions may agree to it. I am afraid it is not that easy for Niu Jinda to cause this conflict.

But Li Xiang believes in Niu Jinda's military capabilities. We only need to wait near the border. Niu Jinda will be able to send someone to report in a few days.

Of course, Niu Jinda is confident. All his men are equipped with serial crossbows. This kind of thing can be fired up to 60 meters away, and there are ten arrows on it that have extremely strong penetrating power.

In addition to that are the twenty crossbows. The carriage is filled with various artillery shells. With this kind of thing, we can hit 2000 meters away. If someone really comes to attack, we can even run while Fight while playing.

The modified crossbow arrows can be fixed on the four-wheeled carriage. When the four-wheeled carriage retreats toward the rear, we can continue to fire cannonballs.

With such a mobile battle, even if the opponent sends tens of thousands of troops to Niu Jinda, we can lead them around in circles in the wilderness. If they appear in front of us, can we still kill them with the serial crossbows in our hands? Is there no way out?

After the war was over, they saw the war losses and understood that there was nothing you could do about 2000 people, but our Tang Dynasty has hundreds of thousands of troops. You won't surrender by then?
After Niu Jinda left the border, spies from the Western Region Alliance Army continued to appear around him. They followed the army at a distance. They had already remembered the above requirements and must not get too close. If they were discovered, Just say that you are a herdsman from various countries in the Western Region.

"How do you usually conduct reconnaissance? Didn't you say that there is a military camp here? Why is there nothing now?" After a day of walking, we finally reached a hundred miles deep into the enemy territory. Originally, there was a military camp here. Yes, the number of people was not very large, about 2000 or so. Niu Jinda’s first goal was to choose here, but when he came to the front of the military camp, it was already empty, except for the pillars that were also laid here. , there is no sign indicating that this is a military camp.

"This is really strange. I came here in person half a month ago. This is indeed a military camp. There should be 3000 or [-] people inside. They are also practicing riding and shooting outside. How come it only takes a few days to do this?" Is there no one left?”

A young general under his command said depressedly, this guy is responsible for the reconnaissance work in this area, and several groups of his people have been here. This is also the first military camp after leaving the national border, and it can also be regarded as the vanguard of the Western Region Allied Forces. But now even the vanguard troops have disappeared?
"Report to the general, we found some remnants in the military camp. Most of them are materials they stored. They were all buried underground and can still be used."

Just when the young general was depressed, the reconnaissance soldiers had already searched inside. Due to the strong wind and sand in the Western Region, many things would be buried underground. After they entered, they searched and found that the army retreated too hastily. A lot of things were not taken away.

"Aren't they just some shabby gangsters? This kind of thing has no use."

A general looked at the things brought up with disdain in his eyes.

"You know what the heck, this kind of thing is not valuable in our place, but it is very valuable here. Beef and mutton are cheap here, but these vegetables are the most expensive. They didn't even take away this kind of thing. , it is conceivable that they should have retreated hastily and immediately raised the sounding balloon."

Niu Jinda gave an order, and a balloon took a person up instantly. They installed a special device on the carriage. The two carriages were put together just enough to contain the balloon. The carport was nailed with wood around it. When it's time to rise, attach a lightweight soldier and you'll be up immediately.

Compared with the weapons that Li Xiang used on the Tuyuhun grassland back then, I don't know how many steps have been made now, so the soldiers are also comfortable in using them, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than at that time.

For example, some current soldiers have even developed salvo tactics.

Dozens of soldiers line up in a row, and then shoot the enemy with serial crossbows. They will only fire arrows when the officer orders. This is to kill the maximum number of people in the unit of time and bring huge psychological damage to the enemy. The shock arouses fear in them, and finally makes them run backwards.
