Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 761 Ambush in Tianhuang Basin (2)

Five miles is short, but it is not short, but to the cavalry, it is only a gallop for half a cup of tea. It is really not that far away, especially at this moment when the cavalry is in a mess. Undoubtedly, this is a great opportunity to attack. The problem is that the Dashi Cavalry Army is just a little outside the encirclement of the Tang Army at this time. If the horse's Dashi cavalry army regroups again, it is obviously not a situation Tang Jun is willing to face.

what to do?To fight or not to fight?If you fight, you can win, but you can't win all, don't fight?In case the big food army camps on the spot, they will definitely send out cavalry to scout in all directions, and the Tang army's ambush will be broken in all likelihood. At that time, the so-called ambush will only be a joke, no doubt, This is a dilemma, especially for the officers and soldiers of the Tang army who have been lying in wait for most of the day in the scorching sun. Their physical strength and perseverance have also reached a low ebb. promise.

"Order all ministries to remain vigilant, and do not move without orders!"

Although Lin Chengbin never looked back, he could know how deep the anxiety was in the hearts of the soldiers around him. In fact, he himself was not at peace, and he also had endless worries, but he didn't show it. Holding the binoculars After observing silently for a while, he gritted his teeth and made a final decision. As soon as the order came out, the orderly hidden in the hiding place conveyed the order to all ministries with signal flags.

"Ohh Ohh ohh……"

Waiting and waiting, the time passed minute by minute. Finally, a desolate horn sounded wildly at the Dashi Central Army. Noisily lined up in a scattered column, and began to run wildly against the scorching sun, but the formation was much tighter than the original evacuation, although it was four miles long, it was not as stretched as before. The situation in the tens of miles is obviously going to be strict.

"Command, attack from left and right!"

The tight formation of the Dashi Army is obviously a good thing for the Tang Army. Seeing that most of the enemy's main force has entered the encirclement, Lin Chengbin dared not delay any longer, and waved his hand vigorously, giving the order to attack.

"Ohh Ohh ohh……"

With Lin Chengbin's order, the trumpeter who had been prepared for a long time immediately blew the horn with all his strength, and in an instant, the entire Tianhuangshan Basin boiled up.

"Attack, kill!"

The sound of the horn is an order, and Li He, who had been waiting impatiently behind Shaliang, let out a yell, and led his troops to rush out from the ambush in the south first, and the [-] Tang cavalry were like [-] tigers going down the mountain. At the same time, the seven thousand Tang cavalry led by Wang Yu also started to charge, and the two Tang cavalry pierced straight into the back of the Dashi army like two sharp knives.

The Tianhuangshan Basin was originally unknown, it was just a Gobi desert in the desert, and because it was located [-] miles away from the Tianhuangshan Mountain, it was named the Tianhuangshan Basin by the Tang Army. The entire basin is oval in shape, with a large middle and two small Most of the surrounding areas are tall sand beams and low rocky mountains. The terrain in the basin is open, but there are many rocks and the road is unspeakably flat. Once the relatively sparse cavalry entered the basin, it suddenly became crowded. The army that stretched for several miles was almost piled up in one mass, and when they suddenly heard the shrill horn sounding from the sand beam several miles away, they were a little panicked.

"Bayan, lead your men to block the left flank, Mutuso, lead your troops to block the right flank Tang Kou, Huketu, lead your men to take down the high ground in front of the left for Bendu, and the rest of the troops will line up on the spot, hurry up!"

Muhan Ali Kenyon had no idea that Tang Jun would appear here. Seeing Tang Qi riding out from the two wings, he couldn't help but his heart tightened, but he was not completely confused. He quickly looked around, Seeing that Tang Qi was still about four miles away from his side, and obviously still had enough time to adjust, he made up his mind a little, and hurriedly roared and issued the general order.

"Boys, for the glory of the true God, come with me, kill the thief!"

Esmir Weah Bayan is also a veteran who has experienced many battles. He knew that it was time to fight for his life, so he pulled out the scimitar from his waist and roared, regardless of his fatigue. Leading the personal guards to frantically turn their horses back and charge towards Li He's troops on the left. At the same time, the other two groups of food troops also began to charge. To achieve such a level, it is enough to show the strong tactical quality of the Dashi army, which is obviously much stronger than the eastern army that was annihilated by the Tang army in the Suerhan River Valley.

"Array, raise the knife!"

Seeing Esmir Weah Bayan's troops rushing towards him aggressively, their strength was more than twice that of the Tang army. Although Li He didn't take it seriously, he didn't dare to take it lightly. Heng Dao roared and issued the general order. In an instant, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who had been rushing forward straightened their backs in unison, and quickly adjusted into a conical assault formation. He picked up the horizontal knife, but saw that Rulin's blade was shining with a cold light of death in the sunlight.

"I am invincible, kill! Kill, kill!"

The speed of the opposing sides was extremely fast, and in an instant, the distance between the two armies had shrunk to less than ten steps, and it was time for hand-to-hand combat, but when Li He stopped shouting, he swung the horizontal knife in his hand violently. The bright and incomparable light of the sword flashed, and instantly cut a big food warrior who was rushing towards him into four pieces, including his man and horse, and then rushed into the chaos army without stopping. In the pass, human heads rolled to the ground, and there was no single enemy under his command.

"The Great Tang is mighty, the Great Tang is mighty!"

Seeing how brave their own general was, the already high fighting spirit of the Tang soldiers immediately increased a bit, shouting battle horns, and rushed into the enemy's formation along the gap Li He tore, like a knife cutting butter Generally tearing the formation of the Great Food Army to pieces, after only one round of impact, the front formation of the Great Food Army that hastily attacked has been defeated.

"Guards, come with me, block Tang thief, kill!"

Esmir Weah Bayan obviously didn't expect Tang Qi's impact to be so powerful. Seeing that the front army was completely defeated, he couldn't help feeling anxious. He let out a wild cry and led thousands of The guards launched a desperate countercharge, trying to block the powerful offensive of the Tang army.

"Assault, assault!"

Li He didn't pay any attention to the fleeing army of the Dashi army. He swung his army forward with roars and rushed forward. It was as if there was no one in the wild, but at this time, the momentum of the Tang army's cavalry attack had slowed down. Although the enemy's cavalry was successfully killed and scattered, its own casualties also began to increase. Not only that, the cavalry Also slightly scattered.At this moment, Esmir Weah Bayan led [-] personal guards and rushed over, and the two armies formed a group in an instant, and the attack speed of the Tang army's left wing suddenly dropped. At the same time, Wang Yu's troops on the right wing of the Tang Army were also tightly entangled by the powerful Mutuso's troops. Although the Tang Army still had the upper hand in the situation, it was only as time went by that this advantage was gradually decreasing. After a surprise battle has reached such a point, the situation of the Tang army seems to be a little bit bad.

Just when the two wings were fighting fiercely, more than ten thousand infantry and cavalry led by Dashi General Huketu had rushed to the highest stone mountain near the exit of the basin. He breathed a sigh of relief, not for anything else, but because although the highland is only about eighty feet high, it is the key point guarding the entrance and exit of the basin. As long as the big food army can control this mountain, it is enough to ensure that the retreat is not lost. If Tang Jun cannot be defeated, it is enough to protect himself.

"Get off the horse, rush up, hurry up!"

Hearing the sound of fierce fighting coming from behind, Huktu obviously didn't dare to waste time on investigation, and didn't bother to think about why Tang Jun would let such an important place go. Then he ordered his troops to dismount and rob the mountain.

Although Huketu's group of soldiers was not large, they were all battle-tested infantry, and they were quite familiar with their tactics. When they dismounted from their horses, they immediately formed an attacking formation and charged towards the top of the mountain. The speed is extremely fast, but the formation is still quite complete, but in less than half a cup of tea, they have already advanced to the mountainside, and they only need to run wildly again, and they can rush to the top of the mountain smoothly. Unfortunately, the good food army Luck is running out here!
"Call me!"

Just when the Dashi Army relaxed a little, there was a loud roar on the top of the mountain, and immediately saw countless soldiers of the Tang army springing up from the top of the mountain like mushrooms after a spring rain, and rows of black guns were quickly aimed at The Dashi officers and soldiers who were more than [-] paces away fired unceremoniously.

"Bah, bah..."

The gunshots rang out non-stop, and the six rows of Tang soldiers in two trenches skillfully switched positions to shoot. The dense rain of bullets never stopped, and the flying bullets will The Dashi infantrymen who went up the mountain cut down one crop after another like cutting rice. The dead and wounded all turned into gourds, and the howling sounded one after another.

Although the officers and soldiers of Dashi have heard about the power of muskets for a long time, it is another matter to experience it personally. Under such a sudden attack, how can they have the slightest fighting spirit at all. How dare the officers and soldiers go forward to die again, they all turned their heads and fled to the foot of the mountain. The appearance of rolling and crawling was as embarrassing as it could be.
