A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Li Yifu endured the sunshine and said: "The sun in this season is really vicious."

Wu Laoqi, who led the fleet, said: "The life here is indeed very difficult. In many places, even drinking water is a problem, and it is common to not have enough food. I really want to end this battle as soon as possible and go home as soon as possible."

Li Yifu nodded slightly, agreeing with this idea very much.

"As long as the big cannibals don't break into Tubo, we will have time." Xue Ji looked at the rear team following in an orderly manner, and raised his head to look at Lieyang. It is already the hot season, and the climate in Tianzhu is even more unpleasant than that in Guanzhong. .

During the half-day march, Xue Ji sent someone to send a message to the team behind, "There is a dense forest ahead, go there to avoid the sun and rest for a while."

The team of 2000 people pulled very heavy gunpowder and firearms, thanks to some Tianzhu elephants and animals that could pull them.

Li Yifu was sitting under the shade of a tree, shaking his sleeves to drive away the hotness all over his body, "Brother Xue, send a few people to Tianzhu Palace to check the situation first, if we can hurry up early, if we can be late, we may be more comfortable traveling at night."

"Okay." Xue Ji listened to Li Yifu's words and made arrangements.

Suffering at sea is already enough, but the scorching sun hits the shore before getting a good night's sleep. After the team has recuperated, they are not so tired, but it is too hot.

In the Roman camp.

Fuzheng received the news that a group of people from the Central Plains came to Tianzhu's palace, but they took it back and re-established a Tianzhu king.

After hearing the news, Fuzheng was surprised when a small group of people from the Central Plains appeared behind Tianzhu, but the number was not many, and they should have bypassed the border of Tubo to reach the rear of Tianzhu.

"Do you need to get rid of them?" The Roman soldier asked the governor.

After thinking about it again and again, now that the big cannibals are about to launch a second wave of attack, it is not a good thing to send troops to Tianzhu's palace at this juncture. Even if there are people from the Central Plains in the back of Tianzhu, as long as they break through Tubo's defense line, they can deal with it after recovering The Central Plains people in the rear didn't have too many problems.

But when he heard the news, Fuzheng felt uneasy, and always felt that he had missed something, so he had to order: "Send ten thousand soldiers and horses to kill Tianzhu's palace again!"

The Roman soldiers left immediately after receiving the message

On the battlefield, Xue Rengui stood in front of the front line, his clothes were soaked in sweat under the scorching sun, and it was uncomfortable to stick to the armor. The enemy was about to attack again. Xue Rengui ordered that even if the rash was covered, he could not take off the armor on his body. The big cannibals will attack at any time.

Lu Dongzan on the other side was also very nervous. This time, unlike before, he had already used a lot of gunpowder in the first confrontation. Now that Tang Jun has gunpowder, he might not be able to resist the cannibal for a long time.

All the cannibal corpses in front of the battle line were all poured with kerosene, and just a little spark could ignite a big fire in front of them.

All the muskets were set up, and the gunpowder was not enough, so some light firearms were used.

"Get ready, they are coming." Songtsan Gampo had already heard the sound of the horn in the distance.

"Prepare the grenade." Xue Rengui also ordered loudly.

For a while, the whole army was on standby, waiting for the second charge of the cannibal. The scenery in front of him was distorted due to the high temperature, and a figure could be vaguely seen in the distance, until it got closer and closer.

The soldier standing behind Xue Rengui held the grenade in his hand and looked at the front intently. The bean sweat flowed from the eyebrows and dripped down the eyelashes, and the sweat flowed into the eye sockets, seeping into the eyes for a moment of soreness, which made people want to close their eyes. Eye.

Seeing the opponent's troops getting closer, Xue Rengui shouted: "Bow and arrow ready!"

The torches were raised one by one, and the arrows were ignited with flames. There was a sound of strings being drawn from the rear of the war. They raised and drew the bows in unison, and watched the big cannibal getting closer and closer, until it was close to five hundred steps.

"Fire arrows!"

The messenger waved the command flag in his hand, and thousands of flaming arrows soared into the sky, carrying flames towards the big cannibals who were rushing towards them. Some of the big cannibals raised their shields to block the oncoming people Arrows coming.

The kerosene that stepped on the corpse slipped under his feet and fell to the ground. The flaming arrow fell on the kerosene on the ground, and the fire was ignited immediately. In just a few breaths, a huge wall of fire was formed.

The flames howled and burned people, and swept towards the big cannibal who was still rushing up from behind.

There was a big man-eating man covered in fire who just rushed out of the wall of fire and fell down. The fire was very seductive in the sun. Looking at the people who fell in the flames one by one, Songtsan Gampo felt pity and felt helpless. He went to the battlefield The soldiers who want to enter Tubo to slaughter the people of Tubo are indeed a little innocent.

Songtsan Gampo can feel the heat of the flames even hundreds of meters away.

Lu Dongzan stood at Songtsan Gampo with a knife in his hand and said, "The wind is getting colder."

The cool wind came in gusts, and the raging fire blocked the cannibal's footsteps, but the sky was also overcast. After burning for half an hour, the fire slowly showed signs of extinguishing. Taking advantage of the gap between the flames being extinguished, the cannibal ran wildly again come.

"I want to see how many lives Dashi has to fill." Xue Rengui pulled out the knife in his hand and ordered loudly: "Grenades, fire the muskets!"

The muskets shot out intensively, and the big cannibal who rushed to the front immediately fell down like rice.

No matter how many grenades there are, they can't stop the big cannibals who are about to rush up this time. They fall down one after another and block the firepower with their lives.

Xue Rengui looked coldly at the big cannibal rushing towards him, stepped forward a few steps forward with the horizontal knife in his hand and swung it cleanly, blood spattered, and the big cannibal in front of him fell down immediately .

"kill!"

Shouts came from the army formation, and all Tang Jun who followed Xue Rengui rushed forward.

Tang Jun and the big cannibal were like two torrents colliding together. The blood burst out at this moment, and the battle became the most brutal.

Facing the fighting battlefield, Lu Dongzan turned his head and looked at the Tubo soldiers on his side who had already been terrified. They had never been on the battlefield, and some of them couldn't stand for a while.

The big cannibals fought the most savagely, and they wore simple armor, biting and wrestling, all of which they used to defeat each other.

Chapter 1028 Di Renjie Arrives

Knocking away the big cannibal Xue Rengui in front of him, he immediately rushed to the rear of the big cannibal.

"General!" A soldier fought and came to Xue Rengui's side, pointing to the battlefield.

Through the gaps in the battlefield, Xue Rengui saw the big cannibals in the rear opening their cages one by one, and male lions came out of the cages. There were dozens of them, as if they were starving, they rushed out of the cages instantly. Plunge into the battlefield, tearing and biting human flesh.

Livestock do not distinguish between enemy and friend, and these lions don't care whether the person in front of them is a cannibal or a Tang Dynasty.

The battlefield was divided, Xue Rengui and the soldiers were fighting in the front, but the cannibal behind had stopped charging, watching the lion charge into the crowd to enjoy the feast.

"Be careful of the lion!" Xue Rengui shouted loudly.

As soon as the sound fell, a lion was about to jump up and bite Xue Rengui, but narrowly dodged, Xue Rengui turned around and stabbed the lion's chest with a knife, splashing hot blood on the armor.

The entire battlefield fell into chaos because of the entry of the lion.

"Big cannibals are lunatics. They don't treat themselves as human beings." Lu Dongzan moved his horse and said to the Tubo soldiers behind him, "I want to rush up and follow me!"

"Drive!" Songtsen Gampo also rode away with a knife in his hand, entering the battlefield.

The sky began to be overcast with clouds, and the originally dry and hot air could not be felt, and the sound of thunder resounded in the sky.

"Kill!" Lu Dongzan led the Tubo soldiers into the battlefield.

With the joining of Tubo, the pressure on the Tang army was greatly reduced. Xue Rengui rode on a lion and stabbed it several times until the lion lay on the ground and did not move.

Seven or eight lions paced back and forth on the battlefield, all seeming to be staring at Xue Rengui, who was covered in blood.

"Be careful, general!" A soldier rushed to slam into the lion that was about to bite Xue Rengui as soon as he jumped up.

There was a burning pain on his back, and Xue Rengui felt that the armor on his back had been grabbed by the lion's paw. Seeing Xue Rengui fell down in pain, seven lions rushed towards Xue Rengui.
