Chapter 1405 Attack
Chapter 1,405 Attack
Southwest of Lezhi City, Yaoquan Mountain, Qili Temple.
Yaoquan Mountain is divided into two gorges, the north and the south. There is an ancient road in Liang gorge that leads to the ruins of a small city outside the mountain.
Emperor He of the Eastern Han Dynasty once built a castle here, named Longqi City. Later, the city was moved to Lezhi, and the place became abandoned.
Yaoquan Mountain is famous because it is said that on June 6th, the King of Medicine will sprinkle medicine into the spring water. This spring water has a slightly spicy taste. Cattle and sheep will grow extremely strong after taking it. People who drink this water will often become healthy.
will recover.
Later, a few monks converted the ruins of the small castle into a temple and practiced Buddhism here.
The temple is called "Manqudajie Richao" in Tubo, which means "the quiet house prosperous with medicinal water", and because it is only seven miles away from Lezhi City, the Han people call it Qili Temple.
Lu Lingzhan led five thousand men and came out from the North Gorge.
From Sajinping, we separated from the army, climbed over mountains and ridges and reached the southeast of Lezhi City through trails. Then we watched Narwin continue southward, while he lurked for two days to recuperate before his men finally recovered.
Fortunately, with the blessing of Medicine King Bodhisattva, the canyon is relatively warm, and the ruins of the ancient city are still available for use. His group is considered to have suffered the least sin.
The valley was very quiet, and the vanguard troops fought hard all the way. Finally, when the sun began to move westward, Lulingzhan returned to a more normal road.
There is another small castle here called Ancient Shanbao. According to legend, Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty rested here when she was married to the greatest Zanpu of Tibet.
Lu Lingzhan carried out renovations here for the last time.
The ancient Shanbao was built on a mountain peak, and at the foot of the mountain is a large curved gorge. When you go around this curve, the road ahead is no longer blocked, and you can see Lezhi City built on the river valley.
Lu Lingzhan was still very cautious and sent his generals to board the ancient Shan Fort. After a while, the flag waved on the fort to indicate that the front was safe.
Lu Lingzhan drew out his long sword: "Everyone, cheer up. There are only ten thousand people left in Lezhi City. Our military mission is to trap them! Wait for the two armies to join forces."
"We have an army of fifty thousand, and we can kill them in a heap. As long as we capture Lezhi, the supplies and yaks of the Song people will all be ours!"
"They went to attack the two armies in Qingtang City and cut off our retreat. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty could only obediently send silk to redeem people!"
"The commander-in-chief has an order. Whoever wins the first prize will pick a yak first. As long as he is not afraid of crushing the yak, he can take as much as he can and whatever he wants!"
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay"
.
General Lu Lingzhan waved his sword: "Kill!"
The time of the attack was very precise. Lu Lingzhan had already calculated it. Even if the attack was unfavorable, he could still retreat when night fell. Anyway, the commander-in-chief and Narwin's army would arrive at dawn. No matter what the first achievement,
Can't even run away.
But he never imagined that as soon as the army bypassed the ancient Shan Fort and reached the plains, a cavalry army suddenly came from the front!
"Kill——" Jie Yaomi waved his sword and rode his Hexi horse: "No one will be spared!"
Behind Jie Yaomi are two new soldiers of the Song Dynasty wearing gray woolen military robes, belly plate armor, and red tasseled steel helmets on their heads: "Kill - no one will be spared!"
Lu Lingzhan was shocked and turned pale. He quickly looked towards the ancient Shan Fort, only to see a tooth flag with the Chinese character Song on a red background flying on the ruins of the castle!
He had fallen into a trap! Seeing the cavalry in front of him, which numbered tens of thousands of people, Lu Lingzhan thought he had fallen into a Song trap.
If there are ten thousand cavalry here, how many will there be in Lezhi City?!
At this moment, there was a muffled sound of "bang bang bang bang bang" on the fort, and countless iron lumps were thrown off the mountain and flew down towards the mouth of the valley!
"Boom, boom, boom, boom -"
Numerous explosive points exploded in Lulingzhan's rear army. The Tibetan army's limbs were instantly shattered and their bones were shattered. The army that had just left the valley was like a hornet's nest hit by stones, running to both sides along the plain.
The scattered infantry in front of the charging cavalry are like melons and vegetables.
The two Tibetan armies have similar uniforms and the same weapons, but the cavalry sword is originally the standard weapon of the cavalry army. When Dong Zang and Zhong Ji got it for the first time, they unanimously commented that the sword is a magic weapon on horseback, and on foot.
It was a bit different during the war.
The weapons of the Tibetan army are their own private property and heirloom treasures. The cavalry swords of Qingyi Jie Guizhang's subordinates are all gifts from the Song court. Maybe they themselves have never thought that someone would stand on the ground with a cavalry sword.
, a day when I was fighting against my immediate former comrade.
And the fighting prowess of the Tibetan people on horseback and the Tibetan people on the ground are also different.
They grew up on horses and are better at horse fighting.
Almost like instinct, Jie Yaomi and Lu Zun's cavalry automatically divided into four teams while running, and instantly cut into Lu Lingzhan's scattered infantry, like four hot sharp knives, piercing a
Tuan butter is so hassle-free!
Huang Hu and Gao Le's hips were off the saddle, and they had trained their horses to the core for six cuts, making the two spearheads they led invincible!
Speaking of this set of sword skills, it was Dong Fe, the leader of the Qing Tang Dynasty, who first realized it.
After being seen by Shi Wei, he simplified it to the extreme and became the horse fighting swordsmanship of Qingqi of the Song Dynasty.
The first to be taught, except for a few generals in the Western Army such as Zhong Ji and Yao Si, as well as Zhong Yi and Sun Neng who had been trained by Shi Wei, formed a formation for the first time, but it was during Jin Mingchi's martial arts performance.
The female soldiers of Xiyuan showed off their skills.
It was so brilliant at that time that it shocked the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty.
Lu Lingzhan's front view was cleared by two sturdy cavalry troops in a blink of an eye, and he watched helplessly as the two angry horses headed towards him.
He knew that he was finished, knew that the commander-in-chief's invincible strategy had completely failed this time, and knew that Qingtang had no future.
The bloody courage in the Qingtang people's bones caused him to let out an unwilling roar and slashed at the rider on the left with his sword.
He clearly saw the rider on his left showing a contemptuous smile, loosening his shiny high leather boots and sitting back on the saddle.
As a result, the horse he was sitting on slowed down slightly, and another galloping horse beside him passed by his right side in this flash of lightning.
Lu Lingzhan saw his right arm holding the sword waving in the air. The sword did not let go, but it hit the plate armor of the samurai on the left who was slowing down, making a "ding" sound.
Immediately afterwards, his gaze suddenly rose, and he saw the entire battlefield full of killing and roaring.
The battlefield began to roll crazily, with blood and slush everywhere, swords flashing, horse hooves flying, and a cloudy sky alternating.
As his eyes turned, he suddenly saw a body on the ground without a head and right arm, falling against the snow at the mouth of the valley.
His vision dropped rapidly, and finally rolled twice before settling on a withered yellow grass pile on the ground, covered in blood.
He even heard the heroic voice of the rider who was just on his left: "Brother Gao, give me permission!"
The cannonballs on the ancient Shan Fort were still falling. The sound and power of the explosion made the Tibetan people, who had lost their leader and were scattered, rather choose to face the flying Qingqi in the plains than to change from what they had become.
The terrifying escape from the original route.
Ten thousand recharged light cavalry faced off against the exhausted and scattered infantry that had been marching for most of the day. The battle was basically over in just thirty minutes.
A small team came down from the ancient Shanbao, accompanied by a group of hundreds of Tibetan soldiers, carrying cannon barrels and unused ammunition.
There were also several Qingtang pathfinding scouts with their hands tied behind their backs.
Bai Yue was the leader of this small artillery team. When he saw Huang Hu who came to meet him, he shook his head and said: "Brother Huang, Lu Lingzhan is too careless, isn't he? He really just waved the flag to convey the message without waiting for the scout to report back...
…”
Huang Hu said to the Jie Yao Mi next to him: "Today we took advantage of this trick taught by the team training, but the team training also needs to learn lessons from it."
Jie Yao Mi sent his son Qioling to Lanzhou to complain, actually with the intention of asking for help. When he saw what happened at Taniguchi, he secretly rejoiced at his choice and nodded repeatedly: "Lang Jun is right, this war
Without your command, I would never be able to do this as well as I can, and win wonderfully!"
