A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

The old man Tianzhu was silent when he heard these words.

Tibet

One day and one night passed, Dashi had been gathering a large army, and the densely packed soldiers and horses could not be seen at a glance. It was only ten miles away from the border of Tubo, and this ten miles was the battlefield where the two armies clashed.

Xue Rengui looked at the cannibal army in the distance with a telescope, and listened to the reports from the soldiers around him, everything was ready.

Five hundred artillery pieces were lined up in front, and carts of firearms were pushed to the front of the army.

Lu Dongzan and Songtsan Gampo stood on the other side of the battlefield. Today's sun was very hot, and everyone's clothes were soaked in sweat. The field was very quiet. Even vultures and wild wolves did not dare to approach this land full of murder. where you want.

"New debts, old debts, it's time for blood feud." Songtsan Gampo said in a low voice.

Xue Rengui rode his horse in front of the army, looking at the broad battlefield. This was a tough battle. Facing the huge army of food, they were going to use up their lives to exhaust their firearms.

With the sound of a horn in the distance, Xue Rengui waved his hands and shouted loudly: "The bow and arrow are ready!"

"Here we come." Lu Dongzan also whispered.

The ocean-like cannibals are riding towards Tubo, riding war elephants, lions and other beasts.

As they charged all the way, as they entered the border of Tubo, landmines continued to explode, and these big cannibals ran forward crazily as if they were desperate for their lives.

Xue Rengui looked coldly at the big cannibals charging forward. When they entered the territory of Tubo for five miles, hundreds of kilograms of gunpowder buried underground were blown up. Mottled with blood.

Xue Rengui drew out the horizontal knife in his hand, and ordered loudly: "Shoot the arrow!"

Countless arrows soared into the sky, covered the sky and covered the sun, crossed the sky, and headed towards the big cannibal. With the explosives ignited, they exploded on the ground like raindrops. Hundreds of corpses flew across the battlefield, and tens of thousands of people The charge came to an abrupt end immediately, and the smell of blood began to waft in the wind.

This is the absolute advantage of firearms. Facing the people of Tang Dynasty with firearms, the big cannibal can only use the most stupid method, which is to use human lives to fill them. Seeing the lethality of firearms, Songtsan Gampo's heart was agitated, and he strengthened his heart again. Thinking, he whispered to Lu Dongzan: "They charged with all their strength to meet Datang hand-to-hand in the shortest time. Firearms are the cannibal's advantage in hand-to-hand combat."

The battlefield was filled with gunpowder smoke, as if it had suddenly quieted down, only the sound of landmines and firearms constantly exploding. Hold your breath and look at the periphery of the gunpowder smoke. After a few breaths, the gunpowder smoke dispersed with the strong wind, and you can clearly see the people on the battlefield. Condition.

The battlefield was full of corpses, and the big cannibal army in the rear jumped over the corpses of their own people and continued to charge towards Datang.

Xue Rengui watched the enemy Wang Yang's men and horses jump over the corpse, and then charge forward.

The soldiers at the front stood in front of hundreds of cannons lined up in front, waiting for Xue Rengui's order to ignite the cannons.

One thousand steps, five hundred steps...

Three hundred steps!Xue Rengui waved his sword and gave a loud command, "Fire!"

Hundreds of cannons were ignited, and after a few seconds of silence, they exploded loudly. You could even feel the ground shaking under your feet. The big cannibal who rushed to the front hit the shells head-on, and the crowd rolled up, and the flames that exploded immediately drowned The front line of the big cannibal.

With the first firing, the front row of artillery was withdrawn, and the second round of artillery was on top.

Hundreds of cannons fired again, and the big cannibal who was still howling in the flames was immediately blasted away, and the charging front rolled up, forming a mountain of corpses immediately.

"Play it again!" Xue Rengui ordered, "Prepare the grenade."

boom!

The third round of artillery sounded, and the moment the shell hit the crowd, flames exploded into the sky, wailing everywhere, human life was like nothing, and the firearms harvested the lives of big cannibals over and over again.

"Grenade!"

Thousands of soldiers rushed forward, pulled out the tethers of the grenades in their hands, and threw them towards the chaotic cannibal forward. The dense grenades fell from the sky, and only the cannibals were crying in the entire battlefield, only the corpses of the cannibals, firearms Under the bombing, no big cannibal has rushed to the front of the Datang people so far.

The mansion is leading the emperor of Rome to stand on a high ground. The rear of the cannibal can be seen at a glance from here. The old Roman emperor looked at this scene on the battlefield and his feet became weak. This is a unilateral slaughter. , couldn't help sighing: "This is the army of the Central Plains people. What kind of power do they have?"

Chapter 1025 The reason for persistence

"Their firearms will be exhausted after all." Fuzheng spoke in a low voice, watching the situation on the battlefield, the big cannibals frantically wanted to rush to the front of the Datang army, but they were still beaten back by firearms again and again. This style of play seems desperate, but it is actually to consume Tang Jun's firearms.

"A bunch of lunatics and fools." Fuzheng said with disdain.

"It looks stupid, but isn't this the result you want most?" The woman standing beside the King of Rome said with a smile: "When their firearms are exhausted, it's time for us to make a move."

Hearing her words, Fuzheng fell silent, not wanting to answer her words.

It wasn't until evening that the cannibal's charge stopped. From noon to evening, the entire battlefield was covered with corpses. Lu Dongzan couldn't help vomiting while watching this scene.

The cannibal's charge stopped for a short time, it would be a lie to say that he was not nervous, Xue Rengui felt the coolness on his back, and his clothes were already wet.

"It seems that they will not attack again, take a good rest, and count how much gunpowder is left!" Xue Rengui asked the generals around him.

"Yes!"

Lu Dongzan and Songtsan Gampo returned to the barracks, and the Tang army has not lost a single soldier. The result is already very good, but everyone knows in their hearts that if there are no firearms, the next battle will be difficult. .

After counting the firearms, Xue Rengui sat in his tent and watched the situation sent by various departments in the army.

"How is it?" Songtsan Gampo walked into Xue Rengui's camp.

"There are still three hundred catties of gunpowder." Xue Rengui said.

"Do you still want to stick to it?" Songtsan Gampo looked at Xue Rengui.

"You still want to say that we withdrew one after another to deal with them?" Xue Rengui replied.

Songtsan Gampo nodded.

"I can't move." Xue Rengui looked at the sand table again, "If I can't defend this line of defense, the situation will become very difficult to deal with, and a game that the court has arranged for so many years will be in vain. "

"Can you withstand Dashi's next charge?"

Songtsan Gampo said in a cold voice, Xue Rengui looked at the sand table and said, "I am a soldier, and the government asked me to guard this border line, so I can't retreat even a single step."

"Tibetan can't follow you to fight desperately, we Tubo can't do it." Songtsan Gampo said.

"You Tibetans can withdraw, but I won't stop you."

Xue Rengui's tone was not serious, Songtsan Gambo was still ashamed when he heard this sentence, this is Tubo, and the court can guard the border of Tubo, but Zanpu, who is a Tubo, dare not take the lives of Tubo people to go spell.

"I won't withdraw, but I will let our Tubo tribe retreat, leaving the young and strong warriors to fight against Dashi together with you." Songtsan Gampo said.

Seeing that Xue Rengui was still silent, Songtsan Gambo said in a low voice: "Although the Tubo here is now a subsidiary of the Tang Dynasty, I still thank you, thank you for protecting the people of Tubo."

"You don't need to thank me for following orders." Xue Rengui said.

Songtsan Gambo walked out of the tent after finishing speaking, Xue Rengui looked at the whole sand table alone, wondering what was going on behind Tianzhu now, if he gave up this frontier defense line, the rear fleet that bypassed the sea would be isolated when they arrived in Tianzhu Without help, even if the 30 troops from the Hexi Corridor come to support, Tubo will be in a mess. The battle that could have been fought in one month may be extended for several months or even half a year.

In this way, Datang will be deeply involved in the quagmire of the Tubo War, and the consumption of food, grass and luggage will increase several times.

The late nights in Tubo are very cold and the daytime is hot and dry. The big cannibals are very tired after this battle, and tens of thousands of people have been lost in this battle. When I reached [-], I couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

The night was very dark. The old Dashi King walked in the tent and looked at the exhausted soldiers. Many soldiers of Dashi looked at the night sky and did not dare to sleep, for fear of another night attack that night.
