Chapter 1245: Nightmare
Xenobud had a nightmare.
In other words, the fears that have been hidden in the deepest depths of his heart over the years have been once again aroused by the confrontation with the Tang army.
In the dream, his army collapsed, and the mountains and fields were full of soldiers with abandoned armor. However, the Tang soldiers, one by one, were more than meter tall, with green faces and fangs, holding huge steel knives, and were grimly chopping down the crying and mourning Tubo people to the ground with a grim smile. Blood flowed along the gullies on the ground, slowly gathering into red streams and red rivers. The boundless red rushed towards him. He watched helplessly as the red flooded his ankles, flooded his knees, and flooded his chest, neck, and was about to flood his mouth and nose.
His chest was tight and his breathing became more and more difficult.
With a loud scream, Thinobud stood up from the bed, sweating all over. Several personal soldiers rushed in from outside the tent.
Looking at these personal soldiers, Thanobud gasped, waved his hands weakly, and got up from the bed.
"How about it outside?" he asked in a low voice.
"Everything is normal." said the personal soldier. "There was no movement in the Tang army."
Just as he was saying these words, there were faint sounds of shouting and killing from afar. Senobud walked out of the tent with his clothes in his clothes. In the east, the fire was shining, and the shouting and killing came from there.
"Turaru is trying to attack at night!" Xenobud said to himself.
Staring at the east side intently, he hoped that Tuaru could make some breakthroughs. But the sound of shouting for killing lasted for a moment, and then it stopped again. In the night sky, the familiar sound of Thinobud's whistle-knocking horns came.
Thinobud was very familiar with and could understand the meaning of the other party's horn. It was the meaning of peace, everyone was the main one, and strengthening vigilance. It was obvious that Tuaru's raid failed.
He sighed.
The reason why he didn't try was because he was familiar with the style of the Tang army. Basically, they would not give the enemy such a chance. If they exposed such flaws, it was very likely that they set up a trap to lure the opponent into the hook, so as to give the opponent a heavy blow.
Faced with such an enemy, conspiracy can play a very low role. Apart from using brute force to suppress the enemy face to face, I really can't think of any other good way.
When the opponent sets up a dignified formation, the tricks are useless.
When he returned to the tent, he no longer felt sleepy. How should he fight this battle tomorrow? Snowbud thought hard.
Li Cunzhong set up such a turtle shell formation, but his attitude was very certain. He was neither in a hurry to counterattack nor in a hurry to break through. He was waiting for something to happen.
But what was he waiting for?
Li Cunzhong must have relied on it, otherwise, he would go deep into the ambush of more than 100,000 troops. Why should he not be anxious or impatient? His soldiers also have to eat, and his food and grass will not fall from the sky.
After thinking about it, the only thing that could bring variables seemed to be Han Rui's 10,000 cavalrymen who disappeared.
Tanggula Pass!
It has been several days since there was no news from which side. Chinan, Delhi, has sent messengers in that direction, asking the officials and troops of those places to strengthen their defense and mobilize all mobilized forces to prevent possible invasions.
But if Han Rui really breaks through the Tanggula Pass and enters the hinterland, can he really stop them?
Xenobud is extremely annoyed.
They had no other way except to swallow the big fat meat in front of them as soon as possible. Only by swallowing him can they have the energy to think about other things.
Tomorrow, we can no longer worry about casualties tomorrow. No matter how serious the casualties are, we must open a gap. Even if we fight for life with our lives, even if we spend several lives to exchange for the life of a Tang army, we must fight.
"It's almost dawn?" he asked with his head raised.
"Yes, Ruben, there is still a quarter of an hour left in the morning, and it will be the fifth day of the day." A personal soldier said.
"Get my armor!" Snowbud said in a deep voice. Today, he decided to go to the front line and personally attack the arrows and stones to urge the soldiers to fight bravely. No matter how great the sacrifice is, he must open a breakthrough.
The uneasiness in Xenobud's heart was constantly expanding for some reason. He always felt that something was going to happen. But he didn't know what would happen.
When Xenobud put on his armor with the help of his personal soldiers, the sound of the clapper sounds in the fifth day of the world.
"Beat the drum, gather the generals!" Xenobud waved.
A moment later, amid the rumbling drums, one general after another rushed over, and the huge butter candle shone the big tent and illuminated the faces of all the generals.
Several were missing. Thanobud's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by something, but he held it strongly.
"Today..." He wanted to give a speech to inspire a little depressed morale. Obviously, the generals who suffered heavy losses in the past few days were obviously in a low mood.
But at this moment, there was another sudden sound of horse hooves outside. Senobud's face changed slightly. All the generals who should come came. At this time, there were even war horses who rushed to his tent. Either the messenger sent by Chinan, Delhi, or something bad happened.
Everyone's eyes also gathered outside the open big curtain.
The horse sound suddenly stopped, and someone jumped down from the horse. One of them was unstable and actually fell down the horse on the spot, but then he jumped up again. Seeing the man's embarrassed face and sweating, Xanobud stood up.
This was a personal soldier he sent to Chamdo to contact Mangaba.
"Ruben, something big is wrong!" The personal soldiers took two steps at a time and rushed in.
"What happened?" Sinobud was cold all over, his hands were snatching the table table, and he bent in front of him, like a hungry wolf who wanted to choose someone to eat.
"Ruben, something big is wrong. The army led by Mangba Daruen was wiped out in Chamdo. Daruen himself was killed on the spot by the rebels. Thirty thousand warriors and fifty thousand civilians were all gone." When the personal soldiers said this, their legs became weak and they sat on the ground with a loud bang.
He originally went to contact Mangaba, but on the way, he intercepted several Tubo cavalry who escaped from Changdu. After asking, Hun'er was almost scared. He turned around and rode back all the way. Fortunately, he brought two horses and kept changing stops, day and night, never sleeping, and finally rushed back as fast as possible.
And the fleeing men of Mangaba's troops had long since run to the corner and hid.
Thanobud's face is like gold paper.
"Nonsense, this is impossible!" He shouted sternly, and after a few steps, he walked to the soldier and picked up the personal soldier with a chicken. "The 30,000 soldiers of Mangeba are all elite Tubo. How could they be defeated by the group of serfs in Changdu and defeated the entire army? Do you pretend to spread the military information and don't want to survive?"
"Ruben, it's true!" The personal soldiers clapped Snowbud's hands with both hands, and said with difficulty in breathing: "According to the fleeing cavalry, there was a heavy fog that night, and a Tang army cavalry that didn't know where they came from, thousands of people suddenly attacked our camp from the rear camp, and the entire camp was in chaos on the spot. Mangba Daruben beat a big drum and gathered the soldiers, but was directly attacked by the Tang army along the drum sound, and then Daruben was killed by the Tang army."
Thanobud relaxed his hand, and his personal soldiers fell back to the ground with a loud bang.
"Impossible, impossible, how could Han Rui pass through our defense and attack Mangaba!" Xenobud shook his head repeatedly, his body shaking.
Several generals rushed up and held Xenobud.
"Ruben, could it be that there was a Tang army hiding in Chamdo?" A general whispered: "In places like Basu, there are many mountain canyons. If you are determined, it is not difficult to hide thousands of soldiers and horses there!"
Isn't it really a difficult thing? Xenobud struggled to get rid of the support of the generals, walked back to the big case, and sat down heavily.
If we want to do this, we have to at least several months in advance, and even the Tang army did it last year. Otherwise, when Tubo decided to attack on a large scale this year, the whistle cavalry and scouts would have been spread all over these places. It would be impossible to sneak in at this time.
But if the Tang army had really ambushed such an army a few months ago, and had survived the whole winter in those deep mountains and valleys...
Oh my God! Sinobud couldn't imagine how Tang Jun could survive this winter.
If this is true, it can only mean one thing, that is, the Tang army had already had a huge plan to target them, and they expected a series of military operations in Tubo next because they made corresponding deployments.
"Who is the commander-in-chief and what is the flag that suddenly appeared? Have you found out clearly?"
The personal soldiers nodded, and he would naturally not forget such an important thing. The Tang army's banner and the style of the banner were still remembered by those defeated soldiers.
After listening to the description of the personal soldiers, Xenobud's hands and feet were cold.
That's the Rangers.
The general who commanded the army was surnamed Li.
It was Li Rui, the general of the Central Army who heard that Zuo Wuwei took office. In the information, this person had never appeared in Xining. It is said that he was not suitable for the climate of the plateau. It turned out that this person had been to Tubo and had long been hidden in Changdu.
They arranged a huge combat plan, but the Tang army laid a bigger trap on their basis.
Li Cunzhong's confidence is indeed not unreasonable.
Li Rui is here.
Han Rui broke through the Tanggula Pass.
Is there a third and fourth army?
Li Cunzhong is waiting for what he is waiting for here?
Waiting for their large troops to come?
