Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 542

Autumn on the plateau is always extremely short, and this is just the right time, the sun is about to set, and under the blood-colored setting sun, there are dead bodies on Luoying Ridge, stumps and limbs everywhere, pools of blood and black hair The darkness, the pungent smell of blood spread everywhere, people want to vomit, the whole scene of hell on earth, but the soldiers of the vanguard battalion didn't see it, they all sat in the pool of blood, panting heavily In a fit of anger, everyone's face was ashen. This is not because the soldiers of the Vanguard Battalion are weak, but because they have all reached their limit - they repelled six strong attacks of the Tubo army in one day, even if they were made of iron. People, at this time, I am afraid that my legs will be weak too.

"Battalion Commander, the thief has made another move!"

The soldiers were tired, and Lu Sansheng, the battalion commander, was even more tired, but he couldn't rest. He had to forcefully direct the rescuers to transfer the wounded to the camp on the top of the mountain. He exclaimed in surprise, his heart sank involuntarily, he didn't care too much, he ran to the stone wall in three steps at a time, looked down, and saw another group of Tubo troops coming out from behind the formation, It is slowly advancing towards the foot of the mountain.

"Damn it! Du Gaoshan!"

Lu Sansheng's vision was not comparable to that of the lookout post. After just a little observation, he found that this group of Tubo army was different. The armor and weapons are all of high grade. Although there is no special movement during the march, there is a faint evil spirit that is intimidating. It is obvious that this group of attacking troops is the elite of the Tubo army. At this time, the Vanguard Battalion is an exhausted army. Although it is still capable of fighting, it may not be able to stop the enemy's soldiers. With the heavy burden of defense, Lu Sansheng inevitably became a little anxious and cursed. After yelling, some of them drank angrily.

"To!"

As soon as Lu Sansheng yelled, a slightly thin soldier jumped up from the group of soldiers sitting on the ground like a spring. This man was Du Gaoshan, the signal soldier of the Pioneer Battalion.

"Go, report to the head of the regiment, the elite bandit army has already attacked, and our department requests reinforcements!"

Lu Sansheng has always had a strong personality, so he is not very willing to speak out when he asks for help, but the situation is stronger than others, and in the current situation, even if he is unwilling, he can only do so.

"Yes!"

Du Gaoshan didn't dare to disobey the battalion commander's order, he hurriedly responded, turned around and rushed towards the second stone wall.

"The whole battalion gathers, prepares for battle, prepares for battle!"

Even though he had sent for reinforcements, Lu Sansheng still didn't dare to be careless. Seeing the Tubo attacking army lined up at the foot of the mountain, although he couldn't bear it, he could only harden his heart and send the exhausted All the officers and soldiers shouted.

"Three victories!"

The officers and soldiers of the Vanguard Battalion were already extremely tired. Although they followed orders, their speed of movement was obviously much slower than usual. This was not only due to the exhaustion from the long-term battle, but more likely due to altitude sickness In the beginning of the impact, the appearance of such laziness immediately made Lu Sansheng extremely anxious, and when he was about to speak again to urge him, he heard a majestic shout from behind.

"Captain, why are you here?"

Lu Sansheng looked back and saw that the people who came were Wan Chenghe, the commander of the regiment, and Su Dayong, the commander of the second battalion. He immediately felt uneasy, but he didn't care about it. He trotted forward to meet him and saluted him with a standard military salute. , asked suspiciously, as for the long-standing competitor of the second battalion commander, Lu Sansheng chose to turn a blind eye.

"Three victories, the forward battalion's defense mission has been completed, and the position will be handed over to the second battalion immediately."

The Tubo army's offensive was imminent, Wan Chenghe had no intention of talking nonsense, so he gave the order directly.

"Ah, this...regimental commander, didn't you agree, my battalion mission is to guard for a day and a half, and the sun has not set yet, why..."

Lu Sansheng asked for help and returned to ask for help, but he would never give up his responsibilities. He couldn't afford to lose face, and neither could the Pioneer Battalion. Hearing what Wan Chenghe said, Lu Sansheng immediately became anxious.

"Old Lu, that's not right. You couldn't keep it on your own. How can you blame the head of the group? You, you'd better go cool off, and then it's up to my old Su."

Before Wan Chenghe could speak, Su Dayong, who was standing beside him, couldn't bear it any longer. He snatched it up with a gleeful smile, and taunted Lu Sansheng unceremoniously.

"Fart, I've always been number one in the Pioneer Battalion, when it's your second Battalion's turn to speak up, get the hell out of here!"

The Pioneer Battalion and the Second Battalion have always been rivals, and Lu Sansheng and Su Dayong have always been unconvinced by each other. No matter how difficult it is, he will never bow his head in front of Su Dayong. Hearing Su Dayong's tone full of sarcasm, Lu Sansheng immediately Then he blew up the pot, hopped his feet and screamed, and then, without waiting for Su Dayong to refute, he quickly saluted Wan Chenghe, and begged bitterly: "Regimental Commander, give me another company. No, one platoon is enough, I will definitely be able to hold the position, commander, I beg you!"

"Head, I can still fight, don't retreat!"

"Yes, we can't withdraw, our vanguard battalion can't afford to lose face like this!"

"Leader, just give the order, I will be able to keep it!"

The officers and soldiers of the Pioneer Battalion were all bloody men who always regarded honor above life, so they naturally refused to bow to the Second Battalion at such a time, and they all gathered together without Lu Sansheng's encouragement, shouting in unison.

"Okay, I'll add two platoons for you. If you can't hold the position, come and see me!"

Looking at the faces that were black and shiny by the gunpowder smoke, Wan Chenghe couldn't bear it, and wanted to forcefully order the withdrawal of the vanguard battalion, but he couldn't, because the first regiment The defensive task is four days, but now is just the first day. If the defense is changed too early, it will be difficult to fight the next battle. In view of this, Wan Chenghe can only harden his heart and let the vanguard battalion fight again. The top will go down.

"Thank you, Captain, humble..."

Lu Sansheng only wanted to keep the responsibility of defending the defense, so he didn't care too much about the number of reinforcements, for fear that Wan Chenghe would go back on his word, so he hurriedly stood at attention and saluted, so he was about to agree to it with all his heart.

"Battalion Commander, the bandits are attacking!"

Before Lu Sansheng could finish speaking, the lookout sent out an exclamation.

"Array, everyone in position, prepare for battle, prepare for battle!"

As soon as the enemy's situation appeared, Lu Sansheng didn't care to talk to Wan Chenghe any more. He suddenly turned around and shouted loudly. To the battle position.

"Pick up the bowl!"

Just as the vanguard battalion was beckoning endlessly around the Wancheng River, Gar Mosuoduo, whose armor was half removed and his right arm was bare, walked up to the orderly lined-up soldiers with a large bowl in his hand. He raised the bowl and shouted loudly. He took a sip.

"Shh!"

A total of [-] Tubo officers and soldiers moved after hearing the order, and raised the large bowl in their hands like one person, countless fine hops splashed in all directions, and the smell of wine in the air was so strong that it seemed like it was on fire , It choked people's lungs.

"You are all my great Tibetan warriors. I have fought with this general for many years and have never been defeated. Today, the Tang bandits are rampant and occupying our rivers and mountains. How can we tolerate it? Now we are drinking a bowl of dead wine with you. Then die, kill and go up the mountain, wipe out Tang Kou, drink!"

Seeing that the sun was about to set, he knew that if he was defeated, he would go back, and he might not be tolerated by Gar Zampo, so Gar Mosodo decided to go all out, and sent all his personal guards to the field to serve as death squads He came here to bet the last time. At this moment, looking at the dark faces of his confidantes, a surge of arrogance suddenly surged from the bottom of his heart, and he roared and declared a decisive battle , raised his hand, drank the wine in the big bowl, and then threw it on the ground hard, but with a crisp sound, a good porcelain bowl was smashed into pieces all over the ground.

"Boom, boom..."

Whether you like it or not, since the general has given the order, you have to drink if you don't drink, otherwise the row of supervisors behind you with swords will not allow everyone to back down, even if the Tubo officers and soldiers bite the bullet, they can only drink. He drank all the spirits in the bowls in one go, and then threw the porcelain bowls to the ground one after another. There was a crisp sound followed by another, and countless pieces of porcelain flew in all directions.

"Okay, attack!"

All the words that should be said have been said, and the bets that should be placed have also been placed. Seeing that the death squads have drunk all the spirits, Gar Mosodo stopped talking nonsense, waved his hand, roared, and ordered order to attack.

"Huho, hoho..."

After the order was issued, all the Tubo officers and soldiers stared round their bloodshot eyes, let out waves of howling like wolves, and rushed towards the mountainside with neat steps. The first three rows were full of giants. Shield soldiers covered their whole bodies with large wooden shields covered with several layers of thick cowhide, with only half of their heads exposed, followed by three rows of crossbowmen, and finally a thousand commandos with sharp knives. Obviously, after several rounds of fighting, the Tubo officers and soldiers have gradually found a way to deal with the Musketeers, that is to push desperately to a place not far from the Tang army, and exchange the sacrifices of the front soldiers for the opportunity to launch an assault.

"Rolling Thunder!"

Seeing the menacing approach of this wave of enemy troops, Lu Sansheng did not dare to be careless in the slightest. He roared and ordered to throw all the remaining ten rolling thunders.

"Boom..."

The power of the rolling thunder is undoubtedly enormous. After ten rolling thunders exploded one after another, almost none of the giant shield soldiers in the first two rows were spared. The front surged wildly, stepping on the broken corpse of his own robe to push towards the stone wall regardless, and push again!

"Fire, fire!"

Seeing that Rolling Thunder failed to do its best, Lu Sansheng couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and shouted wildly to issue a shooting order. In an instant, the soldiers of the Pioneer Battalion who had been on standby for a long time pulled the triggers one after another, and rows of bullets shot across the sky. Flying and sweeping towards the remaining giant shield soldiers, although they also achieved some results, they were unable to sweep the enemy as they did the previous few times due to the blockage of the thick cowhide. The officers and soldiers of the Vanguard Battalion in heavy armor suffered a big loss immediately, and the battle became a little subtle.
