Datang: Valkyrie chat group

Thinking in another way, if he were the Turkic coach, under the current circumstances, he would definitely choose to attack after the sun rises

In terms of position, at that time, the attack position of the Turks was very good

This plain between the mountains was originally oriented from northeast to southwest, and the entire camp was originally designed to defend against the Turkic people from the north. If the war broke out, they must face the northeast direction.

If the sun comes out, it will be facing the sun in the early morning.

Effects of sunlight on vision

Although the impact will not be large, on the battlefield, no matter how small the impact is, if it affects the entire army, it will be a disadvantageous factor

And this is an unfavorable factor that cannot be removed.

He also wants to occupy a more powerful position, but, as a defender, he has to face this

More importantly, the time of the war depends on the Turks.

Now, Jiri Khan chooses to launch an offensive at sunrise, so he must face

Send an order to the Ministry of Defense to have breakfast in advance, and assemble in half an hour

The melodious horn sounded first from the Turkic camp

With the sound of the horn, tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry rushed out of the camp.

Unlike the Tang army, the Turkic cavalry did not have any good armor. For them, agility and extremely fast horses were the best protection for themselves.

At this time, in Datang's camp.

Tens of thousands of archers are already in place.

Those eyes were clear, staring closely at the torrent of cavalrymen who were rushing towards him.

The veterans have already gotten used to it, and it is still the same as before, and there is no tension.

On the other hand, those recruits were tense, and their expressions were a little frightened.

If it weren't for the existence of military discipline, perhaps those veterans would take advantage of this emptiness to tease these new recruits.

Tang Feng stood on the Pan Pagoda, looking coldly at the tens of thousands of galloping cavalry, his expression indifferent.As he is now, he is no longer the rookie who went to the battlefield for the first time. After two bloody battles, he has already grown up.

On the battlefield, as a commander, calmness, indifference, this is a must

Even on the other side, even with an army of millions, knowing that he might lose, he still must

keep calm

What's more, even if the person opposite is his friend or relative, once he is in the position of enemy or friend, he must maintain his inner indifference

The Turks have [-] cavalry, and now he has [-] veterans and [-] recruits.

Both sides are evenly matched.

Even speaking, in some respects, he still has an advantage

Now, all he needs is to stick to the camp, kill the Turks to the greatest extent (cdba) and weaken the strength of the Turks, then he will be invincible

Perhaps, Ji Li Khan has seen that the number of cavalry in his hands is not enough, so he wants to break through the outer defense of this camp in one go, and then rush into the camp to fight him close.

On this wide field, cavalry against infantry is almost a unilateral killing.

Even in history, there were people who used infantry to defeat cavalry, but that was an example, and there were too many factors.

He didn't think that he could defeat a powerful cavalry army in the wild with infantry like those powerful predecessors.

Perhaps, the Turkic cavalry is not as good as the Mongolian cavalry, and even has a little gap with the Hun cavalry. However, if you dare to underestimate the Turkic people, it is a big mistake.

During this period, the nomads on the northern grasslands were absolutely powerful.Some people say that the ancestors of the Ottoman Empire were the Turks. When the Turks were defeated by the Tang Dynasty, they migrated to western Asia and established an empire there, regardless of whether this rumor is true or not.

However, what is certain is that the ancestors of Ottoman must have been nomadic peoples in northern Asia. It is even said that the two sides are related in blood

Thirty thousand cavalry.

Coming mighty

When they approached the camp [-] meters away, the Turkic cavalry on their horses began to draw their bows and arrows.

At the same time, the Tang army's archers in the camp also squeezed out arrows from the quiver.

Historically, the reason why the Tang army was able to easily defeat the Turkic people was not only because they had extremely harmful generals, strong national support, and excellent equipment, but more importantly, the soldiers had high personal qualities.

The arrow method is not inferior to that of the prairie people, which ensures that when the two sides shoot at each other, they will not lose the wind.

The Turkic people practiced archery by riding horses since they were young, and the Tang people also learned to ride horses and shoot bows since they were young.

Almost all soldiers are equipped with bows and arrows, which is rare in the history of the Han people.

Of course, this also has something to do with Li Tang's bloodline.

The Li family in Jinyang originally had the blood of the Xianbei people, and the Tang style was even more youthful, with the habits of some Hu people, and their temperament was rough, and therefore, the folk customs were tough.

In some respects, Li Tang is actually a tribal empire dressed in Han leather.

At the end of the contact between the two sides, the sky was covered with arrow rain.

Like locusts passing through the border, covering the sky and the sun.

On both sides, people kept falling to the ground with arrows.

Tang Feng stood on the Pan Pagoda, and occasionally, one or two arrows would fall to his side, but these arrows flew so far, their strength was much weaker, and he opened them casually.

After several consecutive rounds of arrow rain, the Turkic cavalry finally rushed to the front of the camp.

The cavalry at the front turned over and braved the rain of arrows, smashing the horses that blocked the way.

Chapter 401 A Very Spicy Decision

Tang Feng stood on the observation tower, looked at those Turkic people struggling to push down the horses, just smiled coldly

The role of these horse refusals is nothing more than to limit the pace of the Turkic charge.

The purpose of this battle is very clear, which is to kill and injure the Turkic people's vitality to the greatest extent and weaken their combat effectiveness.

Even if it is done, one-to-one damage is completely acceptable.Up and down the barracks of the camp, [-] archers and another [-] Tang Army infantry with good archery skills frantically unleashed their firepower on the Turkic cavalry outside Yingzhai.

Arrows, like raindrops, fell on the heads of the Turks continuously.

People were constantly shot by arrows and fell off their horses.

And those Turkic cavalry who got off their horses and overthrew their horses became the focus of the Tang Army's archers.

The continuous stream of arrows hit their heads.

Almost every time a rejecting horse is pushed down, several or even more Turkic cavalry will be shot by arrows.

The Turkic cavalry is not like the army of the Tang Dynasty, they are all equipped with solid armor.

Except for the commander, almost all the Turkic cavalry wore fur clothing to keep out the cold, and did not have any armor.

Without armor, in the face of strong bows and arrows, as long as you are hit, you will either die or be injured.

On the opposite side, in the Turkic camp, Ji Li Khan also stood on a high place, watching the battle.Looking at his own fighters who kept falling to the ground under the rain of arrows, Ji Li Khan frowned.

After fighting with Datang for many years, Tang Jun is very good at bows and arrows, he has a deep understanding

With a strong bow and strong bow, coupled with Tang Jun's excellent arrow skills, even if the two sides shoot at each other, the Turks can't take advantage of it.

Originally, he thought that the Tang Jun on the opposite side was just not being confused, but just looking serious and soft, but in fact, there were not many people.

But now, he found that he seemed wrong.

In this camp, it seems that there are not only 5 or [-] people he estimated.

Looking at the current firepower, the number of archers alone is no less than 4.

Except for the 5 to [-] archers, the Tang army's camp is still indistinct. Obviously, apart from the [-] to [-] archers, the Tang army still has a large number of troops.

This discovery made him feel a little uneasy.

Could it be that this time, the Great Tang Dingbei Hou went north and brought a huge army with him?

But as far as the current situation is concerned, even if Datang wins the Battle of Songzhou, it is impossible.

In such a short period of time, an army of about [-] people has been mobilized.

So, what happened to this sudden army?

No, the number of people in this camp will definitely not exceed [-]. "Jili Khan told himself so.

He determined that the strength of the Tang army in the camp in front of him would not exceed [-].

be patient

As long as you remove the outer defenses and rush into the Tang army camp, then, the next step will be a unilateral massacre

He doesn't think that this group of Tang army infantry running on two legs can withstand their powerful Turkic forces.

T soldier

Now, some loss is perfectly acceptable.

In the frantic confrontation between the two sides, half an hour passed in a blink of an eye, and all the Jumas in the north and outside were dismantled by the Turkic people.

Now, in front of the Turkic people are those two trenches.

As long as this trench is filled, then, next, they can directly attack Datang's camp

In this process, nearly [-] Turkic cavalry fell in a pool of blood

On the other hand, in the Tang Dynasty, although thousands of people were shot by arrows, because of armor and helmets, except for

The person who was directly hit in the neck, and the others, were only slightly injured, not fatal at all.

From this point, we can see the importance of armor.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, great efforts have been made on weapons and armor

The armor equipped by the Tang army, in this era, even if it is on a global scale

That's all the best.

The reason why the Tang army was able to sweep the Quartet was largely due to the strength of its weapons and armor.

Ordinary bows and arrows, if they are shot tens of meters away, even if they are shot directly on Tang Jun's armor, they will not be able to penetrate this solid armor.

On Panta

Tang Feng never left from the beginning to the end.

His gaze was always focused on the battlefield.

Seeing the Turkic cavalry successfully remove all the horses on the periphery, his expression did not show any

what waves

These were expected

It just depends on how long the Turkic people can persist.

In other words, how big is the Q heart of Geely Khan in attacking his own camp?

Now, he can't wait for the Turks to move on.

Filling trenches is not as simple as dismantling horses.

In this icy and snowy land, the soil on the ground is frozen and as solid as a rock. It would take time and effort to dig and fill the trenches.

Throw the corpse into the ditch. "Gili Khan gritted his teeth and shouted

We've come to this point, there's no chance of hesitation

When it is broken, it is accepted by its tongue

Finally, Geely Khan made such a decision.

Use the corpses of your own dead soldiers to fill the two trenches.

This is a difficult Q decision, but after suffering in his heart, Ji Li Khan still made this decision

The Turkic cavalry at the front were all blindfolded when they received this order.The Turks also attach great importance to the corpses of their compatriots, but now, King Khan wants them to use the corpses of these compatriots to fill the trench in front of them. How can they do it?

fill. "The leader of the troops shouted loudly.

Those cavalrymen who stood still gritted their teeth and threw the corpses of their compatriots into the ditch in front of them.
