Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3341
When the infantry behind arrived, the Tang army had already roared away, and the north wind swept the snow particles whistling between the sky and the earth.

Ye Zide was shocked, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, sheathed the scimitar, and looked around gloomyly.The tragic scene in front of his eyes made his always cold heart couldn't help contracting strongly, and a wave of extreme humiliation hit his heart...

The broken corpses of soldiers and horses were scattered all over the place. Black gunpowder remained and red blood flowed. The soldiers and horses who hadn't breathed their last breath were tossing and crying in the pool of blood, scratching their hearts and lungs, which was unbearable to witness.

The dignified successor of the empire and the commander-in-chief of the first army was unexpectedly attacked by the enemy not far from his camp, with heavy casualties and embarrassment. How could Ye Zide, who had always been rebellious, accept this?
When the pawns approached, they were stunned by the horror in front of them, but when they came to their senses, they were frightened out of their wits and rushed forward to search for Ye Qide.

If this person dies here tragically, it will be a big trouble...

Fortunately, although Ye Zide was in a state of distress and his armor was crooked, his arms and shoulder blades were scratched by the fragments of the Thunderbolt, so he was fine.

Facing the inquiries from his generals, Ye Qide was ashamed and ordered people to clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded, and then led his infantry to speed up to the front camp where the ordnance was hoarded.

But when he got close, Ye Zide, who originally intended to command the soldiers to rescue, condensed his depression in his chest, and finally turned into a sigh of despair.

The entire camp was shrouded in raging fire. The fire took advantage of the wind and the wind to help the fire. The monstrous fire ignited everything that could be burned. The fire was soaring and mixed with a pungent smell, which made Ye Qide understand Tang Jun's power. It must be something that was added to the fire when it was set on fire. This kind of fire can only wait for it to burn all the things that can burn, otherwise it will be difficult to extinguish.

At this moment, the cavalry in charge of the pursuit returned and reported: "The enemy's light cavalry is light and light, and they have fled far away with one blow. We can't catch up, and we are afraid that the enemy will set up an ambush halfway, so we can only return."

Ye Qide nodded, and stood outside the camp, somewhat bewildered.

Naturally, he would not blame the chasing soldiers for giving up the pursuit so easily. In fact, even he himself was already afraid of the endless tricks of the Tang army, let alone the soldiers under his command?And he can almost be sure that if he chases him all the way like this, he will fall into Tang Jun's trap here in all likelihood.

Tangren is really too cunning...

After all, it is a nation that has been accompanied by wars for more than a thousand years. It has written strategies and tactics learned in wars and handed down military books. Countless war experiences have been passed on to future generations, and even killed its own people many times to the verge of extinction. extinction.

so cruel...

Fortunately, I had sworn before that I would be able to conquer the Western Regions within a few months, and even have the opportunity to go straight to the Jiangshan Sheji, which is coveted by the Tang Dynasty, under the Yumen Pass.

However, even though he was afraid of Tang Sheng, but the war was so serious, could it be possible that he could lead the army and escape back to Damascus with its tail between its legs?

Fighting must still be fought, but the strategy should be changed, and we can no longer underestimate the enemy as before.

Fortunately, since the battle of Suiye City, he has strictly ordered the food and fodder to be placed in the central army. Otherwise, if it is still placed in the rear according to the past practice, it is afraid that all of them will be burned with these siege weapons now, let alone continue. If the fighting continues, it is a question of whether the more than [-] troops can escape back to Damascus...

Rubbing his swollen temples, Ye Zide encouraged his voice to be as calm as possible, and gave his subordinates a stable attitude: "The Tang army has nowhere to go, and can only rely on such tactics of harassment to disturb our army's morale. You don't have to worry, try to calm the soldiers, Don't let the morale of the army be shaken."

The lieutenant general asked: "If the Tang army continues to harass us, what should we do?"

There are people who are thieves for a thousand days, but there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. If you don’t come up with a charter, if the Tang army continues to harass you like this, everyone will worry about being attacked by the Tang army in the middle of the night. Who can stand losing their head?
But Ye Qide's heart was in a mess at the moment, how could he think of a way to stop the Tang army's harassment?
I had to say: "Don't exaggerate the enemy's combat power, just strengthen your guard. The number of soldiers patrolling at night is doubled. If anyone is found who dares to deceive the crowd and confuse the army's morale, he will be executed!"

A group of generals quickly took orders, but they couldn't help but slander in their hearts: That's it? !

The Tang army came and went like the wind, and had the advantage of firearms. Unless they strayed into the formation of their own longbowmen or spearmen, they could attack and harass them at will, hit them with one blow, and flee hundreds of miles away.Once or twice is enough. If harassment becomes the norm, and the army is panicked and restless, how can the morale of the army be maintained?
Although I couldn't hide my disappointment in my heart, I felt that Ye Qidekong had a noble status, but his ability to lead troops to fight was really limited, but he didn't dare to question him face to face.

The Arab world has distinct classes. Nobles will always be nobles, slaves will always be slaves, and the upper and lower boundaries cannot be crossed. If you offend Yezid and simply behead someone on the spot, you will die unjustly...

Last night, he was frightened and angry all night, and today he was suffocated by the Tang army's attack on the camp. Standing in the cold wind, cold and hungry, Ye Qide felt a little unbearable.Although the food and fodder were brought in the central army, the very small amount of medicine carried with the army was placed in the ordnance camp. At this moment, it has been turned into fly ash along with the ordnance. If not, do you have to let bloodletting treat diseases like those slaves?

If unfortunately he dies before he leaves his teacher, let alone his failure to make achievements, he will become the object of ridicule by the entire Dashi Kingdom...

Tightening the cloak on his body, Ye Qide said: "Leave some people to clean up and see if we can gather some useful ordnance. I will return to the camp for the time being and consider countermeasures."

After saying that, surrounded by his own soldiers, he rode north to return to the tent of the Chinese army.

The generals and schools were also very helpless, leaving one person to clean up the dilapidated camp, while the rest returned to their respective camps.

Morale was at its lowest.

Everyone couldn't figure it out, the Arab Empire, which was invincible across Europe and Asia, fought such a war that was almost guaranteed, how could it be reduced step by step to the current embarrassing situation?

Being in the Western Regions is not a home game. For the Arabs, defense may be more difficult than offense. Tang Jun made up his mind to attack and harass the Arabs' morale, and refused to fight head-on. way to stop.

What's more, the Western Regions are currently extremely cold and snowing heavily. If the scouts are sent a little farther away, they may be encircled by the Tang army. Even the nearby Hu people will secretly attack the Arab army scouts who are alone...

Therefore, when Ye Qide was sitting in the big tent of the Chinese army, unable to do anything, the Tang army attacked and harassed him day and night without any rules.

The entire Arab army camp was restless and the wind was turbulent, and the soldiers were exhausted and exhausted.

……

Inside the Gongyue City Government Office, Fang Jun was wearing a padded robe, with a charcoal basin beside him, and was reading the battle report at his desk.

Xue Rengui was also dressed in ordinary clothes, but he sat meticulously on one side, holding a teacup in his hand, slowly sipping tea, feeling the slightest warmth, and praised: "The master is unmatched in the world in his extraordinary skills, There are countless gadgets invented by you, and each one is ingenious. But in the eyes of the general, only this gunpowder and cotton are incomparably more effective."

That's all for gunpowder. The emergence of such a sharp weapon made the Tang army, which was already powerful enough to crush the heroes, even more powerful. It was simply a cross-dimensional strike.

In the past, the white dipper, which was dismissed by people in the past, can turn into such light, soft, heat-resistant and wind-proof cotton after deseeding, so that people can not fear the severe cold in the ice and snow, which is really a benefit to hundreds of millions.

It is conceivable that how many poor families can wear these cheap and warm cotton-padded clothes to survive the severe winter, which is of great merit.

No wonder the people in Guanzhong often refer to Fang Jun as the "Buddha born from ten thousand families". Such achievements in the good fortune of all people are indeed more respected by the people than opening up territories...

"Ah,"

Hearing this, Fang Jun put down the writing brush in his hand, put the battle report aside, and said with a smile: "You, Xue Rengui, are not the kind of flatterers. Why did you stay in the Western Regions for a while, and you were given by King Hejian?" Is it bad? Although the old county king has some abilities, but his greedy and lustful character is extremely shameless, you don't want to learn from him."

The rest of the scribes in the hall looked strange, and they all lowered their heads, wishing to plug their ears, as if they had never heard of this.

That's the King of Hejian County who is known as the "No. 1 Handsome Clan". This Fang Er is so unscrupulous in teasing...
