Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2097 Fierce battle against Zhao Xincheng (continued)

The army flooded into Xin Zhao City like a tide, and the scouts in front kept sending news that the Tang army had gradually retreated to the city wall in the south of the city, and some of them had even withdrawn from the city. retreat.

Yinan Khan is full of ambition. He has always been afraid of the Tang army and dare not go to war with the Tang Dynasty. He is afraid of repeating the mistakes of the East Turks. Now he is forced to fight such a battle by various forces and various reasons, but he can't imagine it. The Tang army was easily defeated by the border generals and won the victory.

In this way, Xue Yantuo's iron cavalry is not as weak as imagined, and Datang is not as powerful as he imagined?
Yi Nan Khan was instantly confident.

"The whole army charges, regardless of the casualties. They must entangle the Tang army and cannot let them escape back to Monan! My Mobei Longting, how can I come and leave whenever I want? Especially the enemy commander Fang Jun, this beast Killing innocent people, I don’t know how many Tie Le’s sons and daughters were murdered by him, all the way to the north, paving the road with blood and corpses lying on the bed, he is really a cruel and violent executioner, vowing to capture him alive, this great Khan personally interrogates his crimes, and clearly punishes them!”

"Tangle Tang Jun!"

"All wiped out!"

"Capture Fang Jun alive!"

All Xue Yantuo's soldiers charged desperately, screaming, pouring into Zhao Xin City, and launched a tidal offensive towards the Tang army entrenched in the south of the city.

Yi Nan Khan slowly approached the north gate of Zhao Xincheng. Behind him was a golden wolf army composed of elite tribesmen with a strength of [-]. One would make Yi Nan Khan feel distressed, so unless necessary, he would not use it in such a chaotic siege battle, it would be a waste of money.

A small team in front rushed out from the city and came before Yi Nan Khan. The leader, Yi Mang, sat on the horse and said solemnly to Yi Nan Khan: "Father Khan, my son thinks something is wrong!"

For this eldest son, Yi Nan Khan has complicated thoughts.

In terms of talent, the second son is actually the best among all the sons, but his heart is too bold and honest, less than the city mansion, he can be a famous general, but he is not suitable as Xue Yantuo Khan who ruled the tribes of Tie Le.

How can a person who doesn't understand intrigue lead Xue Yantuo to occupy a dominant position among the tribes of Tie Le surrounded by wolves and make great achievements?
But there is no denying that Yi Nan Khan loves and attaches great importance to this son.

Hearing this, Yinan Khan said solemnly, "What do you mean by that?"

Yimang said: "Father Khan, although the Tang army retreated, it did not retreat, and when it retreated to the south wall of the city, it did not retreat. Despite the onslaught of tens of thousands of troops, it still remained motionless. With this level of combat power, why was it previously defeated? We broke into the city easily? The boy thinks there is a trick in it."

Is there any fraud in it?

Yi Nan Khan was startled.

He is deeply afraid of the ingenuity of the Han people. Generation after generation of Han people have strategists, and countless military books and strategies have been left behind for future generations to follow in the footsteps of the previous generations. This is extremely terrifying.

When the Han people fight, whether the soldiers are brave or not is the second priority. The most important thing is to "think about defeat before thinking about victory." Every step of military action has extremely precise calculations. It must be counted as more; if the temple is invincible without a battle, it must be counted as less", which emphasizes the realm of "planning in the midst of strategies and decisively winning thousands of miles away".

Raising the quality of individual soldiers, the Hu people who grew up on horseback and were brave and good at fighting were more than a little better than the Han people?
However, since ancient times, except for some specific time periods, the Hu people have been at a disadvantage. This is because the Hu people are not good at strategy. The short attack the enemy's long...

Therefore, strategy is very important, but this is what the Hu people lack.

Yemang's words reminded Yi Nan Khan, he felt that something was wrong, everything seemed normal, but it seemed...too smooth?

Yes, it went very well.

It is true that the soldiers of the Tang army were no match for the barbarians, but the discipline of the Tang army was beyond the reach of the barbarians.In a war, how can it be a large-scale battle with more than [-] people? The obedience of soldiers to military orders is definitely an important factor that leads to the outcome of a war.

Hu people are not afraid of death because of their aggressive and plundering nature. When they see victory, their desire for plunder can overcome their fear of death. On the contrary, if they are in a desperate situation, their morale will collapse.

The Tang army is different. They are not as aggressive as the barbarian soldiers, but they are all silent and tenacious. As long as the military order is issued, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire in front of them, they will move forward bravely and die without hesitation!
As a lone army that went deep into the hinterland of Mobei, Zhao Xincheng was the stronghold that the Tang army relied on for survival. Once they lost the support of the city and on the vast snowfield, they would become the prey that Xue Yantuo's cavalry chased and slaughtered, killing them one by one until the entire army was wiped out.

Under such circumstances, the commander-in-chief of the Tang army will inevitably issue an order to guard Zhao Xincheng.

The military order is like a mountain, even if the Tang army is defeated in the end, it should not be so easily broken into the city by Xue Yantuo's army with little damage to itself...

Yi Nan Khan's eyes flickered, his mind was heavy, he turned his head to look at Qibi Kele: "In your opinion, is there something wrong?"

Qibi Kele was also a little confused.

If it's wrong, after Yemang's reminder, there must be something.

But he couldn't think of the reason. Tang Jun deliberately showed his weakness to lure Xue Yantuo into the city?This possibility cannot be ruled out, but what is Tang Jun's motive?Even if Xue Yantuo entered the city, with tens of thousands of troops gathered together, even the Tang army's firearms would not be able to win a decisive victory for a while. The distance between the two sides has narrowed the strategic space infinitely. Under the frantic attack of tens of thousands of people, no matter how powerful the Tang army's weapons are, is it possible that they can kill tens of thousands of people in one go?As long as they can't stop killing them, these crazy soldiers will rush into the Tang army's position and tear the Tang army into pieces!
Seeing that Qibi Kele remained silent, Yinan Khan looked at Xiao Siye again: "Young Master Xiao, you have come north with the Tang army, do you know what's behind it?"

Xiao Siye forced a smile, not knowing how to answer.

He knows shit!

Along the way, he also saw the power of Youtunwei's firearms. As for Fang Jun's characteristics and habits in marching, he had no idea at all.

But at this point, do you want to say that you know nothing?
He could only bite the bullet and said: "Khan don't need to worry about it, that Fang Jun was born in a noble family, he lived in a high position and was pampered, and he was famous for his vulgar temperament in Chang'an, so how could he make any conspiracy? , Urging the generals, strengthen the attack and you will be able to embrace the victory, there will be no other surprises!"

Yi Nan Khan thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.

Even though I felt something was wrong in my heart, I still didn't know what was wrong, so I couldn't go on being so suspicious, right?

Unavoidable that Ye Chang had many dreams, Yi Nan Khan reined in his horse and said loudly: "Follow me into the city and annihilate the Tang army..."

Before he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred.

I saw that the city wall of Xin Zhao City, which was close at hand, seemed to be arched fiercely by something under the ground. It was twisted and deformed at first, and then exploded violently.

At this time, a deafening explosion was heard in the ears, which made the ear drums buzzing and dizzy.

That part of the city wall was completely shattered, and the bricks, tiles and stones were blasted into the air by a huge force, and then flew in all directions.

The violent explosion startled the horses under Xue Yantuo's soldiers' crotches, raised their hooves and neighed in unison. Many soldiers were thrown off their horses, and then frightened, they ran around.

"boom boom"

Explosions sounded one after another amidst the flying snowflakes. The entire city seemed to be located in an erupting crater. It was completely torn apart by the huge erupting energy, and then thrown into the air. The ground under its feet violently Trembling, almost unsteady.

A brick flew obliquely and hit Yinan Khan on the forehead.

"boom!"

Yinan Khan was caught off guard and fell off his horse, so frightened that the left and right soldiers rushed forward to help him up, and ran back holding him.

But he was pushed away by Yi Nan Khan.

There was a cut in his forehead, and blood spurted out, instantly staining half of his face red, staring at his blood-red eyes, Yi Nan Khan raised his hand, pointed at the city in front of him tremblingly, opened and closed his mouth, but said no. When he spoke, his face was full of despair.

　Woohaha~ The next chapter is "Three Continuations", I'm very happy to skin it.
