The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

The Tang army had strict military discipline. No one could look at the so-called spoils of war without the order of the general. These things were certainly important, but if they affected the war situation, you were absolutely not allowed to look at them randomly.

But the army of the Arab Empire was different. Many people even stopped during the attack, mainly because they lived in poverty. Although the strength of the two countries was similar, if the lives of the lower-level soldiers were considered, one Tang soldier was equivalent to five Arab soldiers.

Just look at the land of both sides. The land in the Tang Empire was diverse. Although it was not so rich, at least everyone had no problem eating enough. Some people even had surplus food at home. Although they could not catch up with the landlords in the village, they were much better than ordinary people in the village.

On the other hand, the Arab Empire had a desert in most of its territory, with only a few arable lands, or they ate other things. Battlefield plunder was their biggest source of income. If there was no battlefield plunder, no matter how capable you were, you could not live a good life.

So in this case, the Tang army was able to enforce discipline, but the Arab army was much worse in this respect. From an economic point of view, the Tang army had already won a lot.

Looking at the Tang army that didn't care about the spoils, many people felt a chill in their hearts. What were these Tang people thinking? Don't they lack the things that the soldiers have? Even if they picked up a scimitar, they could sell it for a lot of money after returning to the rear. Don't their families lack money?

Just when these people were full of such strange ideas, the artillery shells of the Tang Empire fell again. The artillerymen had extended forward a hundred steps. They could continue to fire shells here. Li Chengyi had already asked for help from the army in the rear. Their shells had almost been fired. The army in the rear had to transport the shells, otherwise there would be no more to fight next.

Facts have proved that Li Xiang's strategy is very normal. The two armies are only 200 miles apart. After receiving Li Chengyi's letter, a supply unit was sent over immediately. Of course, most of the supplies they transported were artillery shells and gunpowder, which are also the most consumed materials on the battlefield. Li Chengyi still has other supplies. Even if there are no food and drink, they can be replenished from the Arab army.

Li Xiang told them before that battlefield supplies are actually very important. The court can do a good job of logistics for you, but when the court does a good job of logistics, you must also find a way to get a batch of supplements locally, especially when leaving the land of my Tang Dynasty to fight.

If you can't even do this well, then you are not a qualified general. No matter what happens in the future, you will feel guilty about this. Fighting cannot bring any pressure to the court, so temporary battlefield supplies are the most important aspect, which is also included in the temporary assessment of all officials.

"General, what should we do?"

In the general's tent, Muhammad's men were already panicking. If they couldn't get out of the front door, those who went out of the back door would be killed immediately. If there was no other reaction, we would most likely be killed by the Tang army. Although the army in front of us was not large in number, their combat effectiveness was too strong. We had dispatched an army three times theirs, but what was the final result? In addition to the sea of ​​fire in the north of the camp, there were the people who escaped from the south. All of them looked ashen and had no combat effectiveness at all.

In fact, this couldn't be blamed on them. In the war just now, they saw how the war of the new era was fought. In a far distance, they only saw the figure of the Tang army, and then the next second they didn't know why they were hit, and blood holes appeared on their bodies one after another.

Although they also wanted to find out the reason, their instinct for survival made them run away to the rear at an accelerated speed. The Tang army did not take them seriously at all. After the war, they did not have any rest, but came towards their big victory. Their goal was very clear. Today, they could not fill their stomachs with those small results. They wanted your entire camp.

"The whole army will move out and retreat to the south."

Muhammad's brain was not stupid. He could still make a correct decision at this time. If he continued to stay here, it would really be a death sentence. In this case, he had to lead the whole army to retreat to the south. If he continued to stay here, he would not think about surviving.

There was no problem with his retreat order, but before the retreat, he should control the troops. Now he only issued a retreat order, but did not dismiss the generals in the camp, nor did he let them restrain their troops, so the retreat was likely to turn into a rout sometimes.

The generals on the battlefield all understand that if you can retreat in an orderly manner, no matter how powerful the enemy is, it will not be able to cause you much harm. But if the retreat accidentally turns into a rout, your losses will increase exponentially.

This is what happened in Muhammad's military camp. A large number of soldiers retreated to the south without a care. The gate was so small that many people could not get out, so they pushed down the fence next to them.

The soldiers responsible for defending the south had not received the order to retreat. Seeing these people in the north fleeing to the south, they naturally regarded them as deserters.

"Retreat immediately, no one can leave the military camp."

Near the south gate of the camp, a general commanded more than 400 archers to stop these retreating people. He had not received the order to retreat, but at this moment, thousands of people in front were about to leave here.

"Mahachi, you bastard, go ask the general, the general has ordered a retreat, if you don't get out, then it will delay the general's big thing."

Another general and his men have arrived at the south gate, and there are more people crowding behind. If the gate in front is not opened, it is hard to imagine how much damage will be caused later. (End of this chapter)
