Chapter 1,127 The overall situation has been decided
The Arabs were in a dilemma.
They were fighting with the Anxi Army in the Western Regions. How could they not know about the Mo Dao Formation, which was specially designed to target cavalry? Its prestigious name was enough to make every Arab cavalry change their expressions upon hearing it, and become frightened when they saw it.
However, the current situation is that the front is blocked by the Turks and Uighurs who are fighting in a melee. Unless the Turks and Uighurs are killed, it will be difficult to escape from the ditch. But before they can kill the enemies blocking the road,
Before they were all killed, they would be attacked by the Tang army and killed arbitrarily.
There is no way forward, only retreat.
But who would have thought that the Tang army not only had unparalleled powerful firearms, but also the Mo Dao Formation, which was designed to defeat cavalry...
On the battlefield, the situation is changing rapidly, but it is not a matter of advancing if you want to advance, or retreating if you want to retreat. Since you have chosen to retreat, you can only bite the bullet and break through the Tang Army's Mo Dao Formation, otherwise if you change your mind at this time and turn around to the Turks
Rushing over there will completely mess up the formation.
In front of the two armies, a chaotic formation is the way to defeat. Not to mention the brave and capable Tang army in front of them, even if it is just an army with mediocre combat power, the Arabs can never hope to save the defeat.
However, the terrain of Alagou is unique. Once defeated, they cannot even escape. They can only be surrounded and attacked by the Tang army and massacred at will.
"Oooh!"
The Arab cavalry made strange shouts, mustered up their courage, and slammed into the Tang army's Mo Dao array.
It was snowing all over the sky, and the cavalry charges, carrying countless snowflakes and ice foam, came towards them like a hurricane. The tall and strong Mo Daoshou only narrowed his eyes slightly, without any fear on his face.
Under the command of the captain beside them, they all raised the Mo Dao, the sharp blade standing like a wall in the heavy snow.
"kill!"
A wall of more than a hundred Mo knives blocked the valley at the bottom of the ditch. More than a hundred people stood motionless in the wind and snow, raising the Mo knives diagonally and slashing with force from top to bottom.
"boom!"
The cavalry hit the wall of swords, and the surging impact caused the snow mist to fly away. The sharp and wide swords cut hard into the bodies of the horsemen and soldiers. The powerful offensive of the Arab cavalry was like a river hitting a rock. The momentum was terrifying, but it was difficult to shake.
There is no trace of Mo Dao Formation.
"kill!"
In the command, Mo Dao's hand was high up on Mo Dao, from the upper left to the lower right, slashing hard at the enemy in front of him.
Blood splattered and people and horses were shattered.
The enemy's horses and soldiers were cut to pieces by Mo Dao, and countless internal organs flowed in the snow along with hot blood, making it seem like a purgatory on earth.
"kill!"
Mo Dao's hands stepped forward together, their boots stepped on the bloody organs, Mo Dao raised them, and slashed again.
"Puff puff"
The sharp blade cuts through the enemy's body, and the Mo Dao Formation that rushes in like a wall is indestructible and unstoppable!
The Arab cavalry were so fiercely aroused by the extremely tragic scene in front of them that even though the robes in front of them were chopped into pieces by Mo Dao, they still charged forward without fear of death. They knew that only by defeating the Tang army in front of them could they break through the escape route.
On the way back to the Western Region, otherwise everyone would die fighting here, so why should they be timid? The will to escape made them forget their fear, and they could only hit the Mo Dao with their heads.
"boom!"
The Tang army did not only have Mo Dao. The grenadiers in the rear row were constantly throwing thunderbolts in front of the two armies. Under the indiscriminate bombardment, it was always difficult for the Arab cavalry to organize a rigorous charge.
Formation to attack Mo Dao Formation.
This is because the terrain at the bottom of the ditch is narrow. Otherwise, if it were wider, the musketeers would line up and fire their guns, and it would be difficult for the Arab cavalry to move forward...
The Tang army appeared in time, causing the situation in Alagou to suddenly reverse.
The Arabs who were originally chasing the Turks were restrained and had to turn around and attack the Tang army's formation. The Turks, on the other hand, took a breather and charged toward the Uighur positions more and more crazily.
However, due to the terrain, the Turks were never able to use their numerical advantage to launch a full-scale attack on the Uighur positions, and could only grind it out bit by bit.
Ashina Helu was so anxious that his head was boiling with anger. He wondered, how could there be only a thousand old, weak, sick and disabled Huihe people with such strong fighting power and such high fighting spirit?
Could it be that the Tang army had some magical secret that could double the Uighur people's combat power overnight?
Simply incredible!
What made him even more unbelievable was the rumbling thunder that exploded in the rear, and the earth-shattering shouts of the charge.
Didn’t the Arabs come to encircle and suppress us? How come they were fighting in the same place as the Tang army?
Did the Uighurs secretly make a treaty with the Tang people and then betray them, or were they bribed by the Arabs?
How could the Tang army be able to send magical troops from the sky and attack at such a critical time, so that they could clear up the mess in one fell swoop?
Uighurs, Turks, Arabs, Tang people... gathered in this small Alagou, who is the enemy and who is the friend?
Ashina Helu was confused. For the first time, he felt that he didn't have enough brain power to figure out the context of the situation.
However, although he was puzzled in his heart, his subordinates were not slow at all, urging the horse to wave the scimitar, and led his troops to rush forward to kill.
—————
The snowflakes falling on the face are cold, and the blood falling on the face is hot. Ashina Helu seems to feel that he has returned to the days when he followed the Yugushe Khan and conquered the tribes in the Western Regions.
The blood in the whole body is about to boil. This kind of hearty battle is the enjoyment to the core of the Turks!
Ashina Helu was capable of killing, so he wiped his face with some snow water or snow water, and rushed to kill with red eyes, even though there were fewer and fewer soldiers around him, he didn't care.
He couldn't look back at this moment. Although he didn't know who was the enemy and who was the friend, he knew that once he was trapped in a tight siege, he would be doomed. Only by breaking through the Huihe position in front of him could he break out of the sky and escape.
He still had lofty revenge and lofty ideals, so how could he die in obscurity in this desolate and remote Alagou?
The blood is stimulated, and the more you fight, the braver you become.
Suddenly, I felt my eyes loosen up. I quickly focused my eyes, but I saw only heavy snow falling from the sky. A trumpet-shaped passage between the two mountains stretched straight into the distance, becoming wider and flatter.
…
He actually managed to kill himself!
He swung his sword with his backhand and chopped down a Uighur who was chasing him to the ground. Sure enough, he had completely killed the Uighurs' position, but there were only three or five soldiers left around him, and the rest all fell on the charging road.
"General! We stand behind you and leave quickly!"
When several soldiers saw the Uighurs and were chasing them, they quickly turned their horses and rushed towards the Uighurs, trying to stop them and give Ashina Helu a chance to escape.
Isn't this the time to be polite?
Ashina Helu didn't hesitate at all. He grabbed the reins and kicked the horse's belly hard with both legs. The horse neighed "Herod" and galloped towards the vast area ahead with four hooves.
In the wind and snow, his words were heard in the distance: "I will take care of your wife and children!"
A few soldiers were not afraid of death and turned around to face the Uighur pursuers. They rushed forward and killed them in one place. After the Uighurs killed several cavalrymen, they looked up again and saw that there was nothing but wind and snow, and there was nothing there.
Ashina Horu's shadow?
Tumidu was fighting bloody battles to resist the onslaught of the Turks. Suddenly, he heard a report from his subordinates that Ashina Helu had broken out. He roared in anger and slashed a Turk who rushed up.
Cut it to the ground.
Ashina Helu's escape means that the Uighur people's last extravagant hope is gone. After this battle, he will immediately return to the north of the Tianshan Mountains and lead his people to cross the Tianshan Mountains and reach the territory of the Tang Dynasty before the Turks are aware of it. Otherwise, he will
To face catastrophe.
And from now on, the Uighurs can only rely on the Tang Dynasty to resist the attacks and revenge of the Turks. Without the protection of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks can wipe out the Uighurs in an instant!
He was clearly trying to fight for an opportunity for the Huihe people to escape from Turkic slavery and thrive freely, so how could he expect to find himself in such a crisis?
Tumidu felt regret and anger in his heart. Looking at the Turks who were still rushing up, he gritted his teeth and swung his knife fiercely: "Kill all these Turks!"
Since we have to rely on the breath of the Tang people in the future, we have to hide our emotions such as complaints and resentment, and we have to submit a solid letter of surrender.
Kill the Turks in front of you as much as possible, and then prevent the Arabs from escaping from your position. That is to complete your mission to the maximum extent.
He himself stood in front of the battle formation, risking his own life and fighting to the death, which revived the morale of the surrounding tribesmen who had fallen into a slump due to Ashina Helu's escape. Relying on the advantage of the terrain, he bravely killed the Turks.
Blocked in the ditch.
On the other side, the Tang army's Modao formation, which stood like a wall, advanced slowly but firmly. The Arabs were scattered with casualties and were completely defeated.
