There will definitely be a collision between the new era and the old era. Zhou Zhong was the first person to feel this power. When he took 3,000 people and more than 10,000 livestock with him, he set foot on the road to Dafeichuan.
A huge fire has been ignited on the stone mountain. He can clearly see the thick smoke rising from the mountain even fifty miles away. It must be a purgatory." The general looked away. The attack launched by the commander was devastating.
There is no possibility for the Tibetans to survive on Jishi Mountain, and there is no grass growing everywhere in Camel City. This sentence is not just for words," the captain of Nuying carried his big bag and reminded Zhou Chong in a low voice that this is not the time to be in a daze. His words were a bit
He is blunt, because there is no control relationship, so he speaks casually.
Zhou Zhong was not angry. He looked up at the thirty-two hot air balloons with ferocious patterns above his head. He didn't notice the warning signal coming from them. He raised his voice and shouted: "Let's go! Brothers, let's go! Big
Brother Feichuan is waiting to eat noodles!"
Everyone was walking. Zhou Zhong himself had a lot of things on his body, and there were two jars of wine hanging around his neck. These were brought for the commander. The commander, who had not drank for more than a year, had begun to fall in love with drinking mare's milk.
Wow, this is very wrong. The commander should drink alcohol instead of mare's milk. Only women and children like that kind of white stuff.
Yun Ye received the message from the hot air balloon. The lookout soldiers had reported that Zhou Zhong's team had entered the mountains. This road was very difficult to walk. The narrowest place allowed two horses to walk side by side. As long as they walked through this dangerous area,
Yun Ye did not believe that Tubo's cavalry could stop his fully loaded crossbow battalion in the open field.
The raging fire on Jishi Mountain melted the snow on the top of the mountain, and the turbid snow water spread from the smooth top of the mountain into the fire, gathering the unburned kerosene like fire snakes scurrying around, the Tubo people
The majestic camp was completely devoured by fire, and two thousand Tibetans were reduced to ashes before they could even shoot an arrow.
When they saw Camel City for the first time, they immediately chose to hold on. Jishi Mountain was not big, but it was steep. Li Jing's army attacked three times but failed to capture the nail stuck in the plain, so Tubo
The general was very confident, thinking that if he could guard against Li Jing, he would also be able to guard against Yun Ye.
He was wrong. Different equipment produced different results. After the hot-air balloon flew to the top of the mountain, countless jars of kerosene fell from the sky, followed closely by some small iron balls with sparks. The Tubo was shocked.
Before people could wake up from the horror brought to them by the hot air balloon, they were engulfed by fire that could burn on bare stone.
The fire in Jishi Mountain was also clearly seen by Lu Dongzan who was in Xingxingxia. From the moment the hot air balloon appeared, he knew clearly that Yun Ye was coming, although he didn't know why Yun Ye came from Rock City.
He came here to attack himself, but as an excellent commander, he smelled danger.
Xingxing Gorge has always been a battleground for military strategists. Xingxing Gorge is not a canyon, but a pass, that is, a mountain pass. There is a mountain on one side and a river on the other. The mountain is not that high and the water is not deep. You can cross it when you leave Liuyuan in the west.
Entering Xingxing Gorge means you have completely entered the Western Regions. It is the only passage from the Hexi Corridor to Xinjiang, and is known as the first throat of the Western Regions. The cliffs in the gorge are thousands of feet high, and the roads are rugged and steep. It is the only passage that can be crossed.
The narrow part is only more than ten meters wide.
If Tubo wants to send troops, it can directly attack Shazhou to the east and Khotan and Qiuci to the west. Therefore, as long as the Xingxing Gorge is preserved, it can strangle the Tang Dynasty in ruling the Western Regions and occupy a very favorable strategic advantage. Li Jing
The army broke through Xingxing Gorge and marched as far as Black Rock Mountain, but was blocked by the dangerous terrain there. The entire army could not stay, and only two thousand soldiers were left to build a city on Black Rock Mountain, because the mountains here were all red sand mountains.
There was a lack of necessary stones for building the city, so the city failed to be built successfully. Blackstone Mountain City only built the four turrets on the four sides, and was attacked by Ludongzan. Two thousand soldiers retreated while fighting, and finally the entire army was annihilated when they reached Xingxingxia Gorge. So this is also the case here.
Li Jing was sad.
Yun Ye was famous for setting fires. Lu Dongzan had already made adjustments to Jishi Mountain. In order to prevent the Tang Dynasty from attacking with fire, he deliberately eradicated all the few vegetation on Jishi Mountain. Unexpectedly, a fire disaster was inevitable.
"Camel City cannot enter Xingxing Gorge!" Li Jing said tiredly while sitting in Yun Ye's tent.
"I didn't plan to go in, I just planned to hold Lu Dongzan firmly for ten days. I also didn't plan to interfere in your war zone, but in order for Uncle Cheng to have a good meal, I took the risk.
"Yun Ye also looked tired all over, and said lazily. "Do you know that Jishi Mountain is the place I specially reserved for Lu Dongzan? As long as there are people guarding there, he will not dare to leave. I always want to be with Lu Dongzan
"Zan fight at Jishi Mountain instead of fighting at Xingxingxia. You ruined all my plans." "When people are impatient, they think less. If they do less, things will inevitably go wrong. I am young and impatient, and I don't have the ability to sit still like you."
The Diaoyutai is so calm and can eat two thousand Tubo people that I already consider it a victory."
Li Jing picked up his sword and walked out of Yun Ye's handsome tent. After a while, he walked in again and asked: "You are already in trouble. You are arrogant and arrogant. You have conquered the world. You have fought across borders. You have trapped and surrendered prisoners. You have forced them to surrender."
Dead Prince, each of these items is enough for you, why do you add this sin of acting without orders? You have always been a smart person, you don't know that the civil servants in Chang'an are waiting to deal with you,
I heard that the imperial censor in the West Pavilion keeps the memorial to impeach you in his sleeve all day long, and will write it whenever he finds a suitable opportunity. Although His Majesty protects you wholeheartedly, don't you know how to restrain yourself?
"
Yun Ye picked up the tea cup and saluted Li Jing and said: "If I restrain myself and repent, do you think those officials will let me go? These crimes are not enough for His Majesty to chop off my head, right? As long as he doesn't chop off my head, it will be fine."
You are really not suitable to lead an army. You are really not suitable. The first thing a qualified commander must do is to be ruthless. Not only must he be ruthless towards the enemy, he must also be ruthless towards his own people when necessary. You can't do it.
So I say you are not qualified. The fact that you can lead an army across thousands of miles and win hundreds of battles is because God is blessing you.
When you go back this time, don't lead the army anymore. Focus on being your Minister of War. I have already recommended you to Your Majesty. You are not suitable to lead an army, but you are the most suitable candidate for Minister of War in the world. At this point,
Your philosophy of never abandoning or giving up will benefit the Tang army a lot, and your honor and favor will also bring good news to the soldiers.
This time you attacked Jishi Mountain and Xingxing Gorge at my invitation. I lacked the equipment to attack the enemy, so I invited you to join the battle. Remember, say this when others ask you."
Yun Ye remained silent and sent Li Jing away, watching his back disappear into the Gobi. How much courage does it take to make a peerless general feel inferior? Yun Ye raised his head, but he quickly lowered it again.
, Li Tai once said, there is no use in doing this, the tears shed cannot be shed back." Taking out all the remaining kerosene and gunpowder, the hot air balloon released the furthest rope, and Tuocheng attacked vigorously until it could no longer
Before moving forward, I want to see if the Xingxing Gorge is really insurmountable. Even if it cannot be conquered, I will set off a fire here that has never been seen in this world. "
Lu Dongzan has not left the observation tower since Tuocheng appeared. He stared at Tuocheng for two whole hours, preparing to see how this invincible fortress operates. The last time he was in the windy sand
, he only felt fear without really taking a good look at how Camel City worked. This time, he was from a high position, and everything could be seen clearly.
The camel city that formed a square city suddenly started to move. It changed from a square city into a long bar like playing with building blocks. The shape changed, but its formation was still thick. From a square to a long bar, it was about to drill.
Enter Xingxingxia.
Ludongzan has never been a stubborn person. On the contrary, he is very open-minded and likes to accept new things. He went to the Tang Dynasty three times to propose marriage to Songtsen Gampo. The purpose was to receive various advanced craftsmanship. He even dreamed of Tang Dynasty.
The emperor of the dynasty could marry various craftsmen for his princess, but it was a pity that no country gave him even a shred of respect and trust.
He bought a lot of books, no matter what kind of books they were, he often regarded these books as his biggest gain in the Tang Dynasty.
Since Yun Ye started using kerosene, Lu Dongzan also began to think about kerosene. He lurked into the military camp by the Ba River several times to take a peek, and he did not hesitate to spend huge sums of money to buy a set of such oil refining equipment through other channels.
I bought it, but there was no way to transport it out. The customs inspection in Sanyuan County was very annoying.
These are all regrets, almost irreparable regrets. If he could also refine oil, Xingxingxia would be the burial place of Tuocheng. He yearned very much for the burning oil that made the Turks flee in panic.
There were only five hot air balloons up. Where did the rest go? Lu Dongzan suddenly had a question in his mind. The hot air balloons floating in the wind entered the Xingxing Gorge first with their long tails dangling.
, it flies at a height that even a vulture shooter can't do anything about.
The Eight Oxen Crossbow on Camel City is adjusting its elevation angle, and the arrows on the Eight Oxen Crossbow are ready to fire at any time.
Lu Dongzan watched unblinkingly as his life-and-death enemy opened his mouth full of fangs at his feet. Before his attack could reach him, the enemy's attack had already fallen on the attack he had arranged.
Point.
It was very accurate. With just one round of gunpowder crossbow arrows, countless people howled and fled backwards. Lu Dongzan knocked on the stone wall resentfully. These warriors who had just come down from the Tubo Plateau still didn't know how the gunpowder crossbow fired.
Well, this is the thunder of the great god.
Although he was annoyed and ashamed, Lu Dongzan was not nervous. Camel City was too big to enter the Xingxing Gorge. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
