Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 478
Shelong didn't know the current situation of the tribes in Yunnan, but now he believed in Xiao Yu even more. Therefore, the direction he was walking was Yizhou, and in Yizhou City, Xiao Yu who had just received the battle report from Yunnan , I was very depressed.

Armed with crossbows, iron armor, and a hundred-steel-smelting saber, the Tang Army, even though they encountered various ambush attacks from various tribes in Yunnan, fought back with little loss and advanced to the Mengshezhao garrison. With the help of the Ten Thousand Tang Army, Meng Shezhao did not suffer a devastating blow from the coalition forces, and at least [-]% to [-]% of the young and strong survived.

In the land of Yunnan, Wang Hao, who already had a high reputation, gave Chai Shao some strategies. He didn't know that Wang Hao was the Chai Shao who was running the rebellion of the Southern Man tribes. Complete victory, more than [-] enemies were killed. For a while, the leaders of all tribes were frightened and began to avoid the Tang army. However, Wang Hao still had follow-up plans to deal with them. Once these plans were achieved, the Tang army wanted to rule Yunnan. The barbarian tribes here must be killed, because, with so many blood feuds, it is impossible for them to be of one mind with Datang.

Xiao Yu only hated the information asymmetry between himself and Chai Shao, he couldn't stop Chai Shao from following Wang Hao's plan and killing all tribes in Yunnan, but he didn't know that it was Wang Hao who sent someone to intercept him on the road early in the morning. and the reason why he was able to receive Chai Shao's letter was because Chai Shao had pigeons raised in the middle of Sichuan in his hands. Reporting work has no effect on the overall situation.

Whether Shelong can stop Wang Hao's series of actions depends on whether his footsteps are fast enough. Regardless of whether his footsteps are fast enough, Lu Dongzan's footsteps are fast enough anyway. When it was time to completely disperse the morning fog, Lu Dongzan led more than 20 Tubo troops to the gate of Yanping in Chang'an City.

The gate of the city was closed tightly, but on the top of the city, Empress Changsun in ceremonial attire stood in the center of the tower, looking down at the Tubo army, and the civil and military officials of the Li and Tang courts lined up on her left and right sides.

In order to let the people of the Tang Dynasty see the majesty and might of his Tubo army, Lu Dongzan waved his hand and ordered all the cavalry to form a square formation, and let as many soldiers as possible show their faces in front of the officials of the Tang Dynasty.

As everyone knows, this move of his not only made it easier to implement Tang Jun's military plan, but also made the officials of the Tang Dynasty see it as a joke.

Through several military parades, the officials of the Tang Dynasty have already seen the military appearance and equipment ten times and a hundred times stronger than the Tubo cavalry. Compared with the momentum, there are also those weapons that are more than one foot long and have ugly handles. In the eyes of Baiguan, they are not weapons at all, and they probably cannot withstand a light knock from the Tang army's saber.

In history, they were defeated in several wars by Tang Jun, who had less than half the number of them. It can only attack various ministries of the party, Tuyuhun, and many small countries in the Western Regions.

"Zou, welcome music..."

The officials of the Ministry of Rituals stood in a row and after shouting in unison, the art troupe that had already lined up on the city wall, under Yu Xiuer's command, began to play "Happy March".

Not to mention, Lu Dongzan, who has never heard such a huge band, suddenly heard this powerful music, and a lot of curiosity arose in his heart. He listened to it for five or six minutes without knowing it. , this piece of music can be played repeatedly, and people who hear it for the first time will not know that this piece of music is being played repeatedly until they are familiar with its rhythm.

Not only Lu Dongzan in the front row, but almost all the Tubo cavalry who could hear the music playing on the city wall were attracted by this strange music. It was Wang Lin who held his waist tightly impatiently. Fighting sword, he is thinking in his heart now, this music should be finished soon, as soon as Empress Changsun leaves the city, he will suddenly attack. Of course, Lu Dongzan also has the same thoughts, but he wants to arrest people, and Wang Lin, is it? To kill.

After seven or eight minutes, the music finally stopped, and at this time, the official of the Ministry of Rites hardly had any pause, and shouted again, "Zuo, concierge music..."

Tang Guo was acting in accordance with the regulations submitted before, so Lu Dongzan didn't say much, even if he said it, he might not be able to hear it, because after shouting, thousands of musicians immediately started playing. This can prevent people from shouting and communicating between the city and the city.

For this performance, another seven or eight minutes passed.

Sun Xiangfu on the top of the city looked a little nervously at the direction of the two sides of the city wall. In fact, at this time, on the horizon of the left and right wings, he had already seen crowds of people wriggling like ants, but the sound of playing music was too loud. Great, the attention of these Tubo people has been attracted. In addition, their sight is not as wide as on the city wall, and they have not noticed it yet.

"Zou, ceremonial music..."

Well, it’s finally the last piece of music. Moreover, this piece of music is very pleasant. It is a variation of the climax of a very famous piece of music "Shensi of the Forbidden City" in later generations. Tang officials who listened to this piece of music for the first time will all praise it. It is a celestial music in the world, which brings the sacred, heavy and pleasant feeling to the extreme. After it was rehearsed, it was immediately designated by Li Shimin as the ceremonial music of the Tang Dynasty. Many ministers usually look forward to holding some Ceremony, so that they can listen to this melodious music again.

The reason why Sun Xiangfu moved this music out is because he likes it. In later generations, for a long time, his mobile phone ringtone has been this tune.

Then, Lu Dongzan, who heard this wonderful music for the first time, was unsurprisingly attracted by the music again. Not to mention him, Wang Lin, who grew up listening to all kinds of silk music in the Central Plains, I was also moved by the sound of the violins, golden cymbals and big drums on the city wall. For a while, I felt that I was afraid that others would interrupt the music.

This piece of music can also be varied from high to low, from low to high, and has been repeated many times, once for nearly 5 minutes, twice for 10 minutes, and three times...
By the time of the third pass, there was a big commotion on the two wings of the Tubo cavalry, because the distance between those carts arrayed was only a few hundred steps away from them, and, because the Tubo cavalry was relatively compact, the people they surrounded The circle is much smaller than expected. Originally, more than 3 scooters could only be surrounded by one circle, but now, they are directly surrounded by two circles.

"The whole army erects shields to protect the empress and empress to evacuate..."

The shouts of Dugu Mou and Chang He suddenly sounded from the top of the city, and the soldiers who had bowed and hid under the battlements all raised their big shields, covering the front and top of the empress Changsun and the courtiers tightly. , pulling them towards the sides of the city wall, or the part of the city wall other than the Tubo cavalry formation.

And the workers, peasants and soldiers pushing carts outside the city are also making their final sprint.

"Hurry up, turn on the ignition, insert the handlebars into the holes in the back row of the cart, the people in the front row will come to the back row to help push the cart, and the fronts of the carts are together..."

Tang Jun's sudden outburst stunned Lu Dongzan and Wang Lin, who were immersed in the music a moment ago, imagining how to arrest people or how to kill people.

The two of them, 10,000+ people, were surrounded by the Tang army just under the city, and the number of the Tang army...
When Lu Dongzan and Wang Lin's eyes shot around, they became even more confused. The number of people was simply incalculable. Such a tight array actually lined up for tens of miles, encircling them on three sides. Seriously, how many people are there?
100 people?
more than.

More than 200 people.

Just looking at those wearing armored carts, holding long spears, and holding heavy shields, there are hundreds of thousands. How many troops in the Tang Dynasty are in Chang'an?
Lu Dongzan just felt dizzy. At this moment, what he wanted to do the most was to draw out his sword and hack Wang Lin to death.

"It's you, it must be you, and Li Tang set up such a big plan to deceive me Tubo."

Lu Dongzan really drew his sword, and Wang Lin also drew his sword to defend, but the two mounts were separated by more than one meter, but they couldn't cut directly at each other.

"If I set up a plan, I would trap myself here too? Take a closer look at the people who surround us! Many of them are women. These people are clearly the people in Guanzhong, so don't be scared by them , the army of Tubo can't break through even Li Tang's army composed of ordinary people, so there is no talk of breaking through Chang'an and competing with Li Tang for supremacy."

The war broke out suddenly, and Wang Lin's heart was actually extremely excited by it. At this moment, he didn't feel the power of those arrays, because the firewood on the cart hadn't been ignited yet, and it burned to the extreme. prosperous.

Before each queue, according to the drilled steps, every ten cars have a soldier in command, and said loudly, "Pass the grass up, pour oil and alcohol on the fire, burn the fire, and push the front of the car forward a little bit until it can't be pushed anymore. ..."

"Hurry up, fix the car with piles, our position is already able to hit them..."

When the workers, peasants and soldiers under the city were nervously completing the last step of the formation, all irrelevant personnel had already withdrawn from the city wall, and a series of ballistas, bed ballistas, and catapults were placed on the temporary wooden The ramp passage was pushed up the city wall. In order to ensure the lethality, the defensive chariots that were originally arranged at other gates of Chang'an, even on the city wall of the imperial city, were pushed to the side of Yanping Gate.

"Get out..."

Lu Dongzan was not stupid, he soon believed Wang Lin's explanation, and, seeing his current situation clearly, don't even think about attacking the city, it is already a great fortune to be able to kill it.

"They are coming, pile drivers, come back behind the shield formation, crossbowmen, pull the trigger and release arrows, suppress them, don't be afraid, the fire on the car is already burning, their horses can't get over at all... ···”

The advantage of having more Liannu is that the arrows can be poured out like rain, and as they launched, the screams of the Tubo cavalry also followed.

"Catapult, put..."

"Bed ballista, release..."

"The ballista, release..."

Not only on the city wall, but also on the opposite side of the city wall, in the rear of the Tubo army, in the army formation of [-] chariots, all kinds of chariots and crossbow arrows were also fully fired.

Immediately, a hundred paces around the entire encirclement became a death vacuum. All the Tubo cavalry who tried to charge out were killed under the attack of various long-range weapons, because the base of workers, peasants and soldiers was too large, and The Tubo cavalry was too dense, so in an instant, the casualties caused were so terrifying that Lu Dongzan's face turned pale with fright.

The most terrible thing is that when their cavalry did not get close to the burning carts, they felt the heat wave, and the war horses did not dare to rush towards the raging fire.

"It's over, Tubo is over..."

Tang Jun's arrangement didn't even give him a chance to do his best. This was a complete massacre.

"After this battle, it will be difficult for Tubo to pose a threat to our Tang border."

The ministers who were standing far away from the city wall, holding up their binoculars to watch the bustle, all showed reassuring smiles when they saw the scene below the city.
