Tang Dynasty: After dominating Rome, I counterattacked Chang'an

Chapter 131 A great victory, a great victory for Dayan!

He led a thousand black-armored cavalrymen and Changsun Shunde's three thousand Tianji Guards into the Wangchuan Gorge.

"Haha, we thought there were enemy troops here, but it turns out, brother Zhang Liang, the Renyan Kingdom has no defenses at all."

"Come to think of it, they are probably sweating profusely when facing our Tang Dynasty cavalry army, so how can they have the spare energy to deal with us?"

"Speaking of which, we should really thank General Cheng and his men for delaying the entire Yan Kingdom's army, allowing us to reach Baiyun City directly."

Along the way, Changsun Shunde kept talking.

Zhang Liang just responded casually, and his attention was more on the canyon peaks on both sides.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, Zhang Liang found something wrong and looked towards the top of the mountain.

moment.

His expression changed greatly.

"Oh no, that's a rock, General Zhang Sun, we've fallen into a trap!!"

Zhang Liang was horrified.

"what?"

Changsun Shunde was surprised.

Before he could react, countless rocks slid down from the top of the mountain and countless arrows attacked him.

At this moment, Chang Sun Shunde completely understood what was going on and shouted loudly: "Enemy attack!!"

The first wave of rocks and arrows hit many Tianji Guards and Black Armored Cavalry, but in the second wave, the Tianji Camp launched a defense and there were not many casualties.

They are the most elite troops in the empire, and their on-the-spot reactions are powerful.

However, the Black Armored Cavalry suffered many casualties.

The 5000 cavalrymen and 1000 black-armored cavalrymen on both sides of the canyon were also met with a surprise attack by the enemy.

On the left wing, that is the army of General Kaiyang under the command of the King of Chu, with more than 3,000 Kaiyang cavalry!

On the right wing, close to Baiyun City, is the Tianxuan Camp of three thousand led by General Tianxuan Su Dingfang!
There were also two thousand archers who were attacking with arrows and rocks at the top of the mountain.

The war begins.

The elite troops of the Tang Dynasty were no worse than those of the King of Chu, but their two commanders were trapped in the canyon. The armies outside were all led by small teams and were directly divided into small battlefields by the armies of General Kaiyang and General Tianxuan, who slowly eroded them.

"I fell into a trap. Damn it, damn it!!"

Changsun Shunde was very upset.

Zhang Liang was now covered in dust and shouted, "General Changsun, don't panic. Our army is the most elite in the empire!"

However, not long after he finished speaking, Zhang Liang was dumbfounded.

In the canyon beyond his peripheral vision, the cavalry he personally trained were being wantonly slaughtered by the Kaiyang cavalry.

This….
It was agreed that the main forces would be at Fengtou Plateau to fight against General Cheng?

Could it be that they have other main forces?

He was completely dumbfounded.

The same was true for Changsun Shunde who was standing next to him.

The two generals of the Tang Empire could not help but panic. What kind of enemy were they facing? !
Yes!

Changsun Shunde and Zhang Liang would never have thought of it, and would never have thought of it.

Three thousand solitary soldiers...
They blocked more than 20,000 Tang cavalry for ten days. They were not the main force of Yan State. It was their faith in that man, their sense of belonging to Yan State, and their desire to protect the people in the inner city of Yan State that gave them infinite strength.

The tenacious will of the ten days made Changsun Shunde and Zhang Liang careless, leading to them falling into an ambush.

Three thousand solitary soldiers, three thousand solitary soldiers...

Although they are not on the battlefield of Wangchuan Canyon, they are more useful than anyone else.

The empire has faith and the people have hope.

It is precisely because most of the Han people in Yan State were captured and became slaves, were eliminated by this world and almost starved to death or frozen to death, and saw the real hell, that they cherish the hard-earned beauty and are determined to protect this beauty.

"What kind of army is this from Yan Country? Why are they so terrifying?"

Zhang Liang was horrified. He couldn't believe that his proud cavalry was being slaughtered unilaterally.

"General, over there!"

At this time, someone else exclaimed.

Zhang Liang looked over there, his eyes widened.

That is….
That's an entire infantry army armed to the teeth!

That... that kind of equipment is enough to be called heavy infantry! It's almost the same as the equipment of the Tianji Battalion!

"No, this situation is not right!"

"General Changsun, we have to retreat!"

After many years of fighting, Zhang Liang has already become a seasoned general who can judge the future direction based solely on the situation on the scene.

Chang Sun Shunde's eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth and said, "No! General Li gave me the most elite Tianji Battalion of the Tang Dynasty. I can't lose it here!"

Most of the war horses in Tianji Camp were killed in the battle, so most of the people here are crossbowmen.

If we retreat, how can we...outrun those terrible Kaiyang cavalry?
He wants to fight, and fight until he dies! !

The battle continues.

Even though they had the advantage of time, place, people and the initiative, the army led by Zhang Liang and Changsun Shunde was still engaged in a tough battle with the Tang Dynasty's Tiger Division.

They are all elites and the pride of their respective countries, so even if they are ambushed, they are still able to fight!
After two full hours, the war ended with the victory of Yan State.

Specific results.

Zhang Liang led more than 800 black-armored cavalry and more than 2,000 Youzhou cavalry to flee.

And Changsun Shunde was taken away.

More than 200 of the 3,000 people in the Tianji Camp escaped, more than 1,000 were captured, and more than 1,000 died in battle.

After all, the Tianji Camp is mainly composed of infantry and crossbowmen. In the desert environment, how can they escape from the Kaiyang Cavalry of the Yan Kingdom?

So even those who escaped were only more than 200 Tianji cavalry.

the other side.

General Kaiyang and General Tianxuan discussed whether to pursue Zhang Liang and Changsun Shunde.

"We must pursue them. I must annihilate them all. Only then can I console them for their ten days of waiting and console the three thousand lonely soldiers stationed on Fengtou Plateau!!"

General Tianxuan Su Dingfang's eyes were bloodshot.

He is always gentle and easy-going, and rarely shows such an expression.

Can….
Three thousand isolated soldiers, three thousand people who were not favored by anyone, blocked the 20,000 Tang Dynasty cavalry for ten days.

What kind of beliefs do they hold?

How can I not be moved?

General Kaiyang also wanted to help, but he couldn't!
What they are facing here is the elite Tiger Division of the Tang Dynasty, and also one of the seven camps that His Highness once was proud of, the Tianji Camp!

They dare not be careless, dare not...
If Changsun Shunde and others entered the Wangchuan Valley sooner, they could start the war more quickly, determine the outcome, and then assist the Fengtou Plateau.

But Changsun Shunde and others dragged it out for too long.

God knows how they got here.

Every day, I heard the shocking battle damage and willpower on Fengtou Plateau, but I couldn't move, and I was struggling with my thoughts every day.

They didn't want to listen, but they couldn't help themselves and wanted to hear what happened to those 3,000 isolated soldiers.

Ten days of resentment, ten days of anger.

As a result, General Tianxuan wanted to kill all of Changsun Shunde's people.

"No, in Yan Country, your army is only slower than the Yaoguang Battalion. Now General Pei Xingjian's Yaoguang Battalion is gone, and the outcome of Wangchuan Canyon has been decided. You need to quickly return to Fengtou Plateau for support!"

General Kaiyang still retained his sanity.

General Tianxuan was unwilling: "But..."
