Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3168 Combat Strength
Nuohebo looked back, his eyes were about to burst, his face turned pale instantly, his tall body even swayed on the horse's back, almost fell to the ground...

In the valley not far behind, there were huge explosions and explosions on the hillsides on both sides. When an unknown amount of gunpowder was detonated, it released unparalleled energy, causing the entire hillside to be blown up by the explosion. Generally rushing down, the entire valley is tightly blocked.

Smoke and dust filled the sky, flying sand and rocks, and the way back was cut off.

Not only Nuohebo, but all the Tuyuhun soldiers were dumbfounded, and endless fear and panic ensued.

The firearms of the Tang Dynasty were powerful enough to destroy the world, and countless robes fell under the fortress of the Tang army. Even the corpses had to withstand the bombardment of thunder and thunder over and over again. become a residue.

Many people have grown timid.

No matter how fierce and fierce the Tuyuhun people are, they are not afraid of death, but it is impossible for them to be truly not afraid of death.

The Hu army lacks military literacy, and has no sense of family and country. When the wind is smooth, it can often gallop thousands of miles to attack cities and villages, and kill enemies that are several times their own. However, all the disadvantages are displayed at the same time.

Without the support of faith and spiritual support, all bravery is reflected in women who can plunder wealth. Once such a goal cannot be achieved, the morale of the army will be shaken immediately.

But now, even the way to retreat has been cut off...

Forward, there are projectiles overwhelming the sky, thunders falling from the sky; backward, the retreat route has been cut off, and there is no way out.

At this moment, what should we do?
Everyone's fighting enthusiasm dropped to the lowest point at once, and they all looked at Nuo Hebo sitting on horseback, waiting for him to come up with a decision quickly.

And right now, Nuohebo has not only timidity and fear, but also regret that rises from the bottom of his heart and fills his whole body in an instant!

If he hadn't listened to the instigation of the Tubo people, if he hadn't been obsessed with hoping to use the opportunity of attacking Datang to boost his prestige, so as to secure the position of Khan...how could he face such a desperate situation?

At this moment, Nuohebo's intestines are full of regrets.

However, the Jedi in front of him does not allow him to regret secretly, how to get out of the predicament is the most important thing.Otherwise, even if he can escape back to Qinghai Lake, he will definitely lose his prestige, and lead the younger generation who have just been cultivated after several years of recuperation to be buried in Hexi, and he will become a sinner condemned and reviled by his tribe.

That is absolutely unacceptable to Nuohebo.

In fact, it is not difficult to make a decision right now, it just depends on whether or not this long-planned battle ends in failure...

The fortress built by the Tang army in front is solid. Although he doesn't understand how the Tang army can build such a huge fortress in such a short period of time, the Tang army is condescending and makes full use of the power of the firearms, completely crushing the advantage of the Tuyuhun cavalry's impact However, no matter how the charge was made regardless of casualties, the final outcome was very likely to be the annihilation of the entire army, and all the Tuyuhun elites died under the fortress of Taniguchi.

The way forward is like a ladder to the sky.

Only by resolutely withdrawing from Dadou Bagu can we preserve our strength as much as possible and wait for an opportunity to fight again.

Of course, in this way, Fu Zhong and the [-] pioneers will be discarded. That is his son...

This is a difficult choice.

But Nuo Hebo is also considered a hero of the previous generation, after weighing in his mind for a moment, he made up his mind, gritted his teeth with red eyes, and shouted: "Send the order, the whole army breaks through!"

After saying that, he jumped off the horse back and slashed fiercely on the horse's neck with the scimitar in his hand. The horse only had time to let out a miserable neigh before the horse's head was cut off by the sharp scimitar and fell to the ground. On the ground, a gust of hot horse blood sprayed out, dyeing the robes of the soldiers around him all red.

But the body of the war horse ran forward two steps, and then fell to the ground with a crash, its four hooves twitched, and it was still alive for a while.

The surrounding soldiers also followed suit and killed the horses one after another.

Then Nuohebo ran towards the side of the hillside, followed by hundreds of soldiers, and then the Tuyuhun soldiers who were in a desperate situation abandoned their horses one after another, followed and fled desperately.

Although the military order is "Breakout", but in the canyon, the Tang army in front is like a rock, and there is no way out, and the retreat is blocked by mountains, rocks and gravel. Is there another way for them to break through?
However, even though the entire army was defeated in this way, the Qilian Mountains stretched endlessly, with ravines and ravines. Once they escaped into it, even if the Tang army had ten times the strength, it would be difficult to chase and intercept them.

Although the morale of these soldiers has collapsed, as long as they return to Qinghai Lake alive, they will still be excellent fighters.

It's a pity that although people can run for their lives across mountains and mountains, war horses can't.Tens of thousands of war horses were lost here, which was considered a near-impossible loss for Tuyuhun's strength...

But what can be done?

Besides, Nuohebo really couldn't think of a second way.

Even if these soldiers fled back to Qinghai Lake, their loyalty to him would drop to an unprecedented low, even if their Khan position was lost, and even their lives were in jeopardy, but at any rate, it could be regarded as bringing Tuyuhun's flesh and blood back Most of the population still exists, that is, the seedlings will continue.

Otherwise, if all these tens of thousands of elites are lost in this Dadouba Valley, his Nuohebo will be the eternal sinner of Tuyuhun...

Nuohebo climbed to the middle of the hillside swiftly, stood still and took a breath. Looking back, he saw that the Tang army had already walked out of the fortress and was gathering troops to chase and kill the Tuyuhun army in an orderly manner. The army that gave him infinite confidence is like a flock of wild sheep throwing away his helmets and armors all over the mountains and plains at this moment. He only knows how to run for his life, howling and crying, where is the arrogance and murderous aura that was so arrogant and murderous a half-minute and a half-day ago?

The chest was dull for a while, as if blocked by an invisible stone, Nuohebo clenched his fist with his left hand and hammered his chest, then his throat was sweet, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.

The guards on the left and right were so frightened that they rushed up to support him. Seeing that the Tang army in the valley was chasing him at an accelerated speed, the range of the firearms in the hands of those Tang troops was not inferior to that of a bow and crossbow. Once they were caught up, they would not be able to escape. A strong bodyguard carried Nuohebo on his back, and tied the two of them together with silk ribbons. Then he ran wildly, reached the top of the mountain in a short while, and disappeared at the top of the mountain in the blink of an eye. In the densely forested ravine on one side...

……

Fortress rear.

Hearing the earth-shattering "bang bang bang bang bang bang" in front of him, and the shouts of the soldiers on both sides like a tsunami, Yuchi Baohuan, who was in charge of guarding the rear formation, felt worried and looked ugly.

The [-] elites selected from the counties in Hexi were also tense, holding the shields and weapons tightly in their hands.

Everyone knows that the right guards are all at the front to meet the charge of tens of thousands of Tuyuhun cavalry, and it is impossible to have spare energy to take care of the rear.The firearms that the Youtunwei rely on to shake the world will not be distributed here. After a while, the [-] Tuyuhun vanguard troops that were deliberately released will come to attack the position with the momentum of a mountain roar and a tsunami.

Although there are fortresses to block the enemy's charge, 1 people are at an absolute disadvantage against 2 people, and the infantry is already weak against the cavalry. The result was disastrous.

Although Yuchi Baohuan has been guarding Hexi not long ago, but he was born as a general and has outstanding abilities, so he still has a lot of prestige.

At this moment, holding the horizontal knife in his hand, he looked around angrily, and said loudly: "Hexi is the place we are guarding. Once the mouth of the valley is broken and the fort falls, the enemy will drive straight in. The people, family members, and merchants we protect will suffer. The slaughter of the enemy bandits! And if Hexi falls, the enemy's soldiers will point directly at Chang'an, and the capital of the empire will be at stake, and the family and country will be destroyed in an instant!"

While speaking, there was a muffled roar like thunder, and the fortress under their feet was fighting slightly. Amidst the tide-like shouts of killing, the [-] Tuyuhun vanguard troops had leaped and whipped through the walls on the left side of the fortress. , Successfully killed and came to the rear.

Yuchi Baohuan had a bit of his father's style, he swung the horizontal knife in his hand fiercely, and hissed: "As a soldier, I will defend my family and defend the country, and I will repay it by dying! Now the enemy invades and wants to occupy us. Territory, steal my money, kill my relatives and friends, rape my wife and daughter! Tell this general, what should you do?"

Countless soldiers around him were full of anger, raising their arms and shouting wildly: "Kill the enemy! Kill the enemy! Kill the enemy!"

Morale skyrocketed.

　Some people are famous all over the world, some people died in battle, and some people are waiting to be fed... We are glad to live in this country and this era, and we should remember those heroes who sacrificed their lives for the strength and peace of the country.You have to know that all this is not taken for granted, it is just that someone is carrying the burden for us.
