Chapter 219: The Battle of Yaozhou (IV)

Seeing the Tang army get up in the middle of the night, Mangnianda Zhabu was also suspicious, but the princess, namely Zhuosa. Jimale's younger brother Shang Zandu came to report the whole story. Mangnianda Zhabu immediately explained the doubts. In the middle of the night, the fog was thick, which was indeed a good time to attack the city. The princess was staring at it tightly again, at least the soldiers could be mobilized, and one or two could be seen.

It was not very ideal. The soldiers worked hard to arrive here, and they were a little tired. Unexpectedly, the Tang army did not fall asleep at all. But after looking at the fog, they were a little satisfied. Although the Tang army rose up, it was not easy to notice their arrival. The cavalry got off the horses and led the horses. All the soldiers were not allowed to make a sound and quietly left the mountain road until they arrived at the dam of Yaozhou. When they arrived here, there was a basin valley with a very flat terrain. This allowed the cavalry to board the horses, and then ordered the seven thousand cavalry to charge immediately, and the other army then attacked.

I didn't need to hide it anymore, and I didn't expect failure. I was worried about the safety of the princess.

...

Because the Nanying suffered the impact, except for the three thousand soldiers in the North Camp, the other soldiers all arrived at the Nanying.

The princess still said angrily: "Prince, you will lose."

"No, do you think Gu's camp cannot withstand the impact of your two armies. Before General Xue Rengui arrives, Gu will fall into your hands. At that time, with Gu's ace, even if our Tang army has a arrangement, it will definitely be afraid of the enemy. You will win?"

One sentence talks about the princess’ heart, but there is no answer.

"Then let you see the show," Li Wei clapped his hands. Heichi Changzhi led his soldiers to the outside of the camp, lifted the mud, exposed wooden boards, and pulled the boards again. Below was a trench more than two feet deep and six or seven meters wide. The trench was covered with many sharp wooden stakes.

"When did this be dug?" The princess's face changed.

"I still remember Gu's plan, deliberately evacuated and wanted to use three thousand armored troops to break through Yaozhou City, but did it end up ineffective? Of course, if you have informed you, Gu's plan will fail. But guessed the consequences, why did Gu do this? It was for this trench. I had long expected that your army would join forces with the imperial edicts to attack, but when the attack was made, you must hold you back. So I must not only need a fence, but also a trench to assist. However, we have scouts, and you also have scouts. Put them on the surface, and you don't talk about the scouts, and you also have to inform you. So I had no choice but to dig some temporarily in the name of digging a hole. Then after Gu's army was transferred, General Black Toothed digged more below, laying wooden boards below, and inserting pickets. But Gu still wants to thank you. It is your informed you that you are not aware of this arrangement."

The princess was so angry that she was crying. Before the war began, she heard the sound of horse hooves and came to her eyes. This battle seemed to be in danger, but she had to bear a lot of responsibility for all this. In anger, she lay on Li Wei's elbow and blew hard.

"Oh, are you a puppy?" Li Wei said in extreme pain.

"You are going to bite you to death, you are going to bite you to death. You are a bad person."

Everyone didn't stop him, just laughed. In fact, even though they knew that she was an enemy, they still couldn't feel any disgust.

The sound of horse hooves became closer. The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty had pulled all the wooden boards on the trench and took the prisoners back. They were about to fight to prevent these prisoners from making trouble, and then locked them with shackles. At the same time, they also heard the sound of horses fighting outside the city. The gate of Yaozhou was opened and the suspension bridge was lowered. Tubo general Ke Du and Meng Jian's son Meng Yedong led the soldiers out of the city to fight. However, Meng Yedong had no right to command, and Ke Du was in command.

At this time, Ke Du and Mang Nianda Zhabu still didn't know. The Tang army retreated and guarded the camp, which was a normal way of fighting. The horses ran faster and faster, and when they arrived in front of them, Mang Gundam Zhabu was a little confused. Logically speaking, in this way, there was a heavy fog covering his body. The Tang Dynasty military camp suffered such a huge change, so he should be panicked. But there was a noise coming from the military camp, but it was definitely not a panic. Could it be that the military discipline of the Tang Dynasty's army was so strict that he felt a little chilled.

But at this time, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.

He waved his straight sword and shouted: "Crush."

Pei Xingjian looked coldly at the dark shadows that were gradually approaching in the fog, and he didn't say anything. However, the princess wanted to shout and asked Li Wei to ask someone to block her and Wang Dianzi's mouth with a cloth ball. He was twisting, and Li Wei had no choice but to tie them to Hu's bed again. Then he said, "Although Gu is kind, you can't bully Gu Ren love. If you don't kill women, do whatever you want."

The princess made him cry again, who bullied whom? Big drops of water fell out. Li Wei was very kind and wiped her with a handkerchief. This wipe made the princess even more angry.

The soldiers first smiled knowingly, and then their smiles stopped. The Tubo cavalry finally arrived in front of the camp and the war came! Although there were trenches, the cavalry could not be attacked. Especially in Yaozhou City and outside the city, there were some Tubo elite soldiers in the two armies. In terms of overall combat effectiveness, they were picked out, which was no worse than the Tang army outside the city.

Pei Xingjian shouted: "Let me go!"

Arrows flew out, and with screams coming out, it echoed in the night sky with shrill sound. There were still soldiers waving their little round shields, dialing the arrows, and continuing to rush over. But they were stunned when they arrived in front of the fence. The trench was not wide, and they could even jump over with just one horse. But this not-wide trench and the fence were just in harmony, and it seemed like a natural trench. Some soldiers did not react and fell down with their people and horses, and were immediately poked through the heart by the pickets. Some stopped and were shot dead again as they acted as a living target.

Li Wei closed his eyes and felt a little reluctant to look at it. Unlike Changcaoling and Qiulongdu, this was the first time he saw the direct battle scene. The situation was very cruel. Pei Xingjian said, "Your Highness, do you want to go back to the Central Camp to rest?"

"No need." Li Wei shook his head. These two hours were the most critical time. He had been preparing for several months. Success or failure was here. Once he went back, it had some impact on morale.

Manglingdazhabu also saw it and hurriedly said, "Stop."

I thought the Tang Dynasty was not prepared, and even if it was prepared, I would have prepared it in a hurry, but I didn't expect that the Tang Dynasty army quietly dug a trench. Now such a charge is undoubtedly a death. And the one who sent the most elite cavalry in Tubo was sent. General Qilixu called out and asked, "Why did the princess not see this trench when he dug it?"

"Report to the general, even if he is a princess, he can't spy on much information."

"Did you come prepared?" Mang Jinda Zhabu asked.

"I don't know, but everything seems normal. This time the Tang Dynasty army is different from the Tang army before. The prince has probably never been to the battlefield, so he is very careful when making arrangements."

"It's not like this..." Mang Yanda Zabu felt even more uneasy, but when the Immortal Army came, they could only hope to join forces with the army in the city to attack the Tang Dynasty's military camp, and seize the prince before the Tang Dynasty's army had any arrangements. Once the troops were withdrawn, the soldiers were depressed and the Immortal Army was again. With the arrangements, the consequences were unimaginable. So they ordered the infantry to hold a square shield and carry mud bags. Regardless of whether the attack or not, the trench had to be filled first. I don't believe it anymore, is this trench stronger than the Yaozhou city wall?

But I felt very bad in my heart, as if I was jumping into the fire pit on my own initiative.

The three thousand infantry held the square shield and rushed over carefully. The trench blocked their families and the Tang army. As long as they protected themselves from being shot by arrows, it was not very dangerous. However, there were whistling sounds from the Tang camp, and big stones fell from the sky. In just one pass, dozens of people were killed. The soldiers were so scared that they threw down their shields and fled back. Then, as soon as they turned around, another rain of arrows came, and Mangyandazhabu could not let them escape.

I had to pick up the shield, look at the sky, and walk step by step, but the rain of stone and arrows fell from the sky again. In fact, among the soldiers, except for the Tubo soldiers, most of the infantry were soldiers of various imperial edicts, and their equipment was very backward. Even the so-called square shield was just a vine shield, and their body armor was also a vine armor, and their defense was very poor.

The battle began to begin to the north of the Tang Dynasty military camp.

Unlike the men under Mangyuandazhabu in the south, the Tubo soldiers in the north had even less proportion and their morale was very poor. Ke Du was scolding him, but he was holding a shield and did not dare to move forward. He stayed by the Qingluo River, pushing me and I pushed you. Ke Du was so angry that he had to use military skills and killed several people, and the army carefully approached the Tang Dynasty military camp. Until he heard that the war began to begin in the south, and there was fog again across the camp, and he didn't know the situation of the battle, and his courage became slightly stronger. He swarmed and ran towards the Tang Dynasty military camp.

Ke Duo was angry and shouted loudly: "Route the formation, arrange the formation."

This is a two-way attack, otherwise the Tang army would be defeated immediately if it attacked. Then they kept shaking their heads.

With a shout, he rushed over. Indeed, this shout also gave the enemy in the south a lot of courage. But when he arrived in front of the camp, arrows flew out, some were advancing, and some were retreating, and it was a mess. Xue Na said, "Do you want to send an army out to rush?"

Hei Ya Changzhi shook his head and said, "You can't rush, now you're dragging me, I want to give them a false image."

Many soldiers shouted, and finally rushed to the front of the camp, and were stunned when they saw the trench. As a result, there was another rain of arrows. There were many soldiers rushing over, but not many soldiers who could go back safely. After hearing the soldiers' reports, Ke Duo made the same arrangement as Manglingda Zhabu, asking the soldiers to hold shields and carry mud bags. There were even fewer cavalry in the city, so they had to fill the trench. The difficulty was not great. As long as they attacked the camp, they would be about to win. He thought more simply than Manglingda Zhabu.

The battle between the two sides started, but the Beiying was quiet. Even if the barbarians were able to work together with the Tubo people to attack the Nanying, the bravery of the barbarians was not small, and they dared not divide their troops to attack the Beiying. In fact, it doesn't matter whether they attack or not, and the three thousand soldiers also left the Beiying at the same time.

Taking advantage of the fog and night, we retreated to the north, took some roads, and returned to the southeast of Yaozhou City. This section of Yaozhou City's wall is the shortest and the most difficult to attack. It happened to be a small lake outside. The water was not very deep, and there were many reeds growing inside. There was also a small tree forest with good growth outside the lake. This terrain just made the natural barrier of Yaozhou City.

Three thousand people tiptoed to the woods, and Liang Jishou said, "Everyone, be ready."

These people are all water-oriented soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Some are good, some are bad, and only some are good, but they are not afraid in this little lake slut. But not only that, in order not to make a sound, Li Wei taught them another method to blow the water bag, tie it around his waist, and make a rough swimming ring. The principle is very simple, but it is very magical for the people at this time.
