Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3531 Xue Man Bow Knife
There was heavy snow, and the snow in the wilderness was very deep, but it could not stop the speed of the horses running.Fang Jun leaned back slightly, and was guarded in the middle by his own soldiers, while Wang Fangyi rushed up to the distant mountain first, and then desperately urged the horse to accelerate crazily along the hillside.

Under the mountain, a large cannibal camp was set up in the lee. The movement of the cavalry charging down the hill shocked the camp, and countless figures came out of the tent in a panic, shouting in panic, and someone returned to the tent to take After taking the weapon, someone rushed to the stable to pull out the horse, and the sudden surprise attack caused the entire camp to go into chaos.

Tang Jun galloped down the hillside, the horseshoes rolled up the snow, and the whole team swept in like a galloping snow dragon, arriving suddenly in the panic of the big cannibals.

The soldiers who rushed to the front put their bodies on the horse's back, avoiding the sporadic bows and arrows, and then clamped the horse's belly, holding the reins, and the horse flew into the air with all four hooves, and jumped straight into the big cannibal camp, blocking it in front of it. The barbarian was slammed into the air, and the rest fled in panic. When the horse galloped by, a horizontal knife had already been drawn across their bodies.

With the sound of hoofbeats and blood splattering, the big cannibal who was caught off guard failed to organize a formation to block the Tang army in time, but was rushed into the camp by Tang army cavalry and was brutally killed.

No one knows why the Tang army appeared here. The cannibal officer was too late to defend, and he had no time to organize the army to defend. He returned to the camp and picked up the scimitar. As soon as he walked out, he saw the Tang army cavalry roaring past in front of him, with hoofs splashing The ice and snow hit his face, but it was not as cold as the sting of the sharp knife on his neck. Underfoot, melting ice and snow.

The Tang army entered through the front door of the camp, thousands of horses galloped and raged, the enemy screamed and wailed where the iron hooves stepped on, and suddenly came out from the back door, killing a Tong Tong.However, the Tang army did not run away quickly, instead turned back, the formation spread out, slaughtered the fish that escaped the net one by one, and then cut off their heads and hung them on the saddle. Step back calmly and walk away.

It wasn't until an hour later that the big cannibal army arrived at the camp after hearing the news. Seeing the corpses everywhere, the officer hurriedly ordered to search for fodder. When he learned that the fodder had already been burned into scorched earth, his expression was gloomy and he was furious. .

The weather is getting colder and the snow is getting heavier and heavier, but the beginning of spring is nowhere in sight. Due to the successive sneak attacks of the Tang army, countless food and supplies have been burned. It is even more serious about lack of food and continues to lose weight.

If the food can no longer be replenished, the army will have to slaughter the horses for rations, and if there are no horses, what will the Dashi army use to resist the Tang army's cavalry?

Ye Qide could only continue to send troops to the places where the Hu people lived in various tribes in the Western Regions to plunder food and fodder, so as to maintain the daily supply of the army.

This move made the Hu people in West Lake miserable.

When the cannibal entered the Western Regions, the Anxi army retreated steadily. The Hu tribe in West Lake, who had long been dissatisfied with the rule of the Tang Dynasty, secretly rejoiced. They almost didn't set off firecrackers to welcome the invasion of the cannibal.In their view, the cannibal's control is far inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty. Even if they invaded the Western Regions, they probably only focused on the interests of the Silk Road, and may not have much interest in controlling the entire Western Regions.

The Tang people are different. What the Tang people want is not only the benefits of the Silk Road, but also want the Western Regions to be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Extremely disgusted, but afraid of the prosperity of Tang Jun's soldiers, he had to make compromises.

Right now, the big cannibal is as powerful as a bamboo, and he is simply a Bodhisattva who saves the suffering!

Even though the supply camp of the big cannibal was later attacked by the Anxi army, resulting in a serious shortage of food and fodder, and had to collect and plunder from various Hu tribes, there are still most of the Hu tribe who would rather be exploited and plundered by the big cannibal, and fully support them. Cannibalism can completely drive the Tang people out of the Western Regions.

And this camp that was leveled by the Tang army was an army ordered to go to the nearby Hu people to collect food and fodder.Now not only the entire battalion was slaughtered by the Tang army, but even the food and fodder that had just been confiscated was burned. How can I ask Ye Qide to go back?

The most important thing is that this place is two hundred miles away from Gongyue City, and the road is difficult to travel under the heavy snowfall, but the Tang army suddenly appeared here. It can be seen that such sneak attacks will become the norm in the future, and the Dashi army wants to attack the nearby Hu tribe It will be extremely difficult to collect grain and fodder, and if you are not careful, you will be slaughtered.

Even more importantly, if the Tang army keeps sending cavalry troops around to harass the Hu tribes and threaten them not to supply food and fodder for the Dashi army, then the Dashi army will be even more difficult...

……

The Tang army raided the big cannibal camp, and then retreated all the way north, galloping for hundreds of miles, and arrived at a tribe on the edge of Tulun moraine.

A large number of cavalry came aggressively, alarming the entire tribe. The men took up bows, arrows, knives and forks one after another, while the women hid in the simple shacks with their children.When they saw the excellent armor on the cavalry, the horizontal knife in their hands, the crossbow on their backs, and the red tassels on the pockets that jumped and swayed in the wind and snow, the whole tribe was amazed, and not only secretly groaned.

Yesterday, the big food talent took away most of the food and fodder in the tribe. Today, the Tang soldiers came in aggressively. It is clear what the picture is...

When thousands of Tang army cavalry surrounded the tribe with more than a thousand people, the tribal leader had no choice but to tell the tribe to put down their weapons and go out to meet the Tang army general in person.

Resistance is absolutely irresistible. Although the Tang army is not as brutal as the Turks and Dashi, and slaughters people at every turn, once they violate their orders, the punishment will be extremely severe.In particular, the Tang army is powerful. It may be able to fight and flee while facing the Turks and Dashi, but it is absolutely unlucky to face the Tang army cavalry.

Fortunately, this Tang army only surrounded the tribe and did not kill immediately, which means there is still something to talk about...

The tribal leader came to the Tang army, bowed to the ground with the etiquette of the Tang people, and spoke fluent Chinese: "I don't know who is the general? It's so cold and snowy, and the heavenly army has come from afar. Come in and drink a cup of hot milk tea to warm up your body."

As the Tang Dynasty became stronger and stronger, the daily flow of goods on the Silk Road was almost ten times or even dozens of times that of the past, and huge wealth flowed on this Silk Road.The Hu people living on both sides of the Silk Road naturally flocked to practice Chinese and learn Chinese rituals.

The majestic and majestic cavalry spread out to both sides, and one cavalry came out slowly from the rear. The immediate general was wearing mountain armor and a hood, with only a pair of clean and sharp eyes exposed, and came to the front He looked down at the tribal leader coldly, but didn't say a word.

The tribal leader only felt cold sweat running down his spine, fearing that the general would slaughter the entire clan with just one order.

After all, the entire Western Regions knew that the lack of food and fodder for the cannibals was unsustainable, and it was a big taboo to support the cannibals, and it was even more hated by the Tang army than sending a few young and strong members of the clan to join the cannibal army...

After a long time, when the tribal leader was like a thorn on his back, the general of the Tang Army turned his horse and walked back, and said slowly: "Show them!"

"Here!"

The soldiers behind were ordered, Qi Qi rode forward, hundreds of people galloped in front of the tribal leader, rolled up a burst of ice and snow, and then threw their heads one by one and landed at the tribal leader's feet.

The black bloodstains on the head had dried up and frozen, and all the faces were ferocious, all of which were the characteristics of a cannibal. No need to ask, the Tang army must have slaughtered the cannibal army that came to collect food and fodder yesterday, and then came here to intimidate them.

Countless human heads piled up a hill, and some rolled down and piled up at the feet of the tribal leader, obliterating his legs...

The tribal leader swallowed hard, struggled to get out of the head, and knelt on the ground with a "plop" in front of the general of the Tang army, his heart was broken and his body was full of tears: "General Mingjian, these big cannibals marched before the army yesterday. Come, enter the tribe to plunder, we are invincible, we can only let them move the food and fodder away, we are definitely not colluding with bandits in private! Please also let the general spare us and leave our tribe a way out!"

Sitting on the horse, the general of the Tang army couldn't see the expression on the face covered by the pocket, but said coldly: "Is there any food in the clan? If there is, take it out together. When you move your clan to Gongyue City, the Tang army will supply you Wait for the food you need; if there is no one, someone will send someone into the house to search, and as long as you find a grain of food, all the old and young, women and children will be headed, and you will be punished for funding the enemy!"

The tribal leader suddenly turned pale.
