The Tubo cavalry's roundabout cavalry tactics failed, and they had to attack head-on. They fell into a deadly battle with the Tang army, which was extremely disadvantageous to the Hu cavalry. As we all know, the Han infantry has been the best in the world from ancient times to the present, even against the cavalry.
, as long as the formation is tightened and the cavalry attack is counteracted, the victory will always be greater than the loss.
Zanpo was in the army, constantly commanding her soldiers to gather in from the two wings, trying to break the formation from the center, and at the same time she secretly regretted it in her heart.
The Gar family really hoped to be recognized by the Tang Dynasty and facilitate trade, and set up a foray to allow the trade of some controlled goods. Therefore, they were invited by Fang Jun to rush to Chang'an and were willing to take the lead in order to show the friendship of the Gar family.
.
Entering from Xiaoguan, he even volunteered to be the vanguard of the army and swept all the way to Chang'an.
He was also concerned about the situation in Guanzhong when he inspected Hancheng on the bank of Qinghai Lake. He learned that most of the troops stationed in Guanzhong accompanied His Majesty Li Er on the Eastern Expedition. There were not many elite troops left, and most of them were rabble gathered in Guanlong. The Tubo cavalry was so powerful that in the face of these
Isn't it true that an unqualified army is invincible when it comes to advancing rapidly?
So he seized this opportunity and led his cavalry to take the lead and serve as the vanguard of the army.
Who would have expected that after coming from Xiaoguan, as soon as they entered the realm of Guanzhong, they encountered a tough opponent...
He did not know that the army in front of him was a combination of the Zuo Tun Guards and the royal army. They were both regular troops in the Tang army. They were essentially different from the rabble of Guanlong. Their combat power was also first-rate among the Tang armies.
.
Although they were defeated by the Youtun Guards outside the Xuanwu Gate before, but now they gathered up the defeated troops and reorganized their formation. Facing Hu Qi, the morale of the soldiers in the army was greatly boosted, and the combat power they unleashed was really not weak. Especially Chai Zhewei, although he was timid.
He was cowardly and fearful of the enemy, but after all, he had a good family background and had some ability in marching and forming formations. Among the generals of the Tang army, his ability was not obvious, but against Hu Qi, he had an overall tactical advantage.
Zan Po is brave if he is brave, but when it comes to the method of marching and formation, he is not even the slightest bit worse...
Seeing that Hu Qi under his command was in a bitter battle, Zan Po was shocked and angry. If he couldn't break through the enemy formation to clear the obstacles for the army, wouldn't he have to lose face in front of Fang Jun? Losing face was fine, and he was not a fool, just for the sake of face.
He urged his soldiers to fight to the death, but if Fang Jun underestimated the power of the Gar family and stopped paying attention to the matter of establishing a settlement, it would be a big trouble.
The reason for being invited to send troops this time was firstly to make good friends with Fang Jun and the East Palace behind him, who represented Zhengshuo, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Secondly, it was also to take the opportunity to declare the strength of the Gar family and make the East Palace of the Tang Dynasty believe that the Gar family was someone they could rely on.
The allies can help the East Palace become stronger in the inheritance of the Tang Dynasty throne.
So how could he fail?
Zanpo took off the pointed felt hat on her head, brandished her machete with a ferocious face, and shouted: "Charge forward, charge forward! Our Tibetan warriors charge into battle, why are they afraid? Break through the enemy's formation and let them know how powerful we are!"
The Tubo soldiers were naturally fierce and brave, and they were already red-eyed. When they heard Zanpo's roar, they immediately gritted their teeth and charged forward without fear of death. The light cavalry was not conducive to charging, but they couldn't care less at the moment.
, although the Tang army in front of them is not low in combat power, its morale is obviously not high, and its formation is scattered. As long as they rush into its formation in one go, it will definitely be a great victory.
The two armies gritted their teeth, one side refused to give in an inch, and the other side attacked bravely. For a time, they were killing each other at the foot of Jiangui Ridge, and blood flowed like a river.
Seeing that the battle situation was stable, Chai Zhewei clenched the sword in his hand feebly and let out a long breath. However, before he could completely relax, a scout came galloping towards him and reported: "Revelation
Commander, Gao Kan led a cavalry force across the Wei River from the Zhongwei Bridge and headed straight for our rear formation!"
Everyone was shocked. They could barely block the Tubo cavalry in front of them. If Gao Kan came again, how could they fight this battle? Even when the Zuotun Guards were fully staffed and a royal army was added, they were defeated. Now, they were defeated.
With the loss of troops and generals, we are facing a powerful enemy again, and we can't even run away...
Chai Zhewei's eyes were red, he was furious, and he shouted angrily: "Mother! Is he crazy for talking too much? I am fighting for the country by resisting the Tubo cavalry, but he wants to take the opportunity to seize my retreat and want to get inside."
Is it possible to communicate with foreign countries?”
He finally mustered up the courage to fight openly with Hu Qi, risking his life and death to keep Hu Qi out of Chang'an. As a result, he saw that he was about to be cut off by the Tang army, and you can imagine his anger.
Li Yuanjing also panicked and said quickly: "It's impossible to do anything, let's evacuate quickly!"
Chai Zhewei said angrily: "Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw!"
You were the one who resisted with all your strength before, but now you are the first to call for withdrawal. Do you have any opinion at all?
The most important thing is, even if we retreat, where can we retreat to? Once Gao Kan leads his army, how can we withstand the attack from both front and rear? Even a defeat like a mountain is easy. The lower part of Jiangui Ridge is backed by a mountain and the other is facing water. It is long and narrow.
There is absolutely no way the Tubo cavalry can outrun them on the open plateau, and maybe the entire army will be wiped out...
Since the six gods had no master, the front position suddenly changed again.
The Tubo horsemen who were charging and beating suddenly dispersed to the two wings. Another group of cavalry suddenly appeared from the wind and snow, galloping over with unparalleled power. The sound of hoofbeats was like thunder and murderous intent. In the blink of an eye,
Suddenly he rushed straight into the Zuotunwei formation.
This cavalry is different from the Tubo Hu cavalry. The Hu cavalry mainly focuses on mounted shooting. When faced with the Tang army's formation, it was difficult to show the impact of the cavalry. However, this cavalry is fully armored and well-equipped. Although it has no equipment,
The armor of the iron cavalry is so exaggerated, but its protective power is much better than that of the Tubo barbarian cavalry, and its charge into the formation is obviously more powerful. Zuotunwei was already in danger and crumbling under the fierce attack of the Tubo barbarian cavalry. How could it withstand it?
Such an impact?
The violent and ferocious impact poured down like a flash flood. The Zuotunwei formation collapsed almost instantly, and countless soldiers abandoned their positions and turned around and ran away.
Chai Zhewei watched his troops retreat and collapse, feeling the unspeakable humiliation and fear. Then he turned his eyes to the fluttering flag on the head of the charging cavalry, and the big "" on the red background with black characters.
The word "fang" made Chai Zhewei's hands numb.
Fang Jun!
It is indeed Fang Jun!
How could he not understand that Tubo Hu Qi was basically in the same group as Fang Jun?
Li Yuanjing next to him also understood, but he was unwilling to be defeated by the Youtun Guards under Fang Jun in such a clean and tidy manner. In anger, he loudly said: "Fang Jun colluded with Hu Qi to cause trouble in Guanzhong. How can we
Let him succeed? The troops should not be in chaos and follow my king to kill the enemy... Oops!"
Before he finished speaking, Chai Zhewei, who was already furious, grabbed his clothes from the side and exerted force, pulled him off his horse and threw him to the ground. Then he quickly ordered the soldiers on the left and right: "Tie the prince and gag him!"
Mother!
Now that the defeat has been decided, you still want to accuse Fang Jun of being a "traitor". Do you really think that Fang Jun's mallet is a vegetarian? If it is a good life, it may not be impossible to save our lives, but if it will be
He was so pissed off that he could just kill each other with a knife from the two armies. What should he do?
Li Yuanjing was tied up and gagged to prevent him from talking nonsense, and then ordered his troops: "The Duke of Yue rushed thousands of miles back to Beijing to quell the rebellion. He is a loyal minister of the country. You must quickly lay down your weapons and surrender. There is no resistance!"
"
When the military order was passed, the Zuotun guards were relieved. The soldiers who were still running and fleeing dropped their weapons on the spot, covered their heads with both hands and fell to the ground, shouting: "Surrender! Surrender!"
Some of the defeated troops who had been disorganized by the cavalry charge were still running around like headless chickens, trying to flee to the rear, but were intercepted by Gao Kan and his troops.
At the foot of Jiangui Ridge, in the wind and snow, the Zuotun guards threw down their helmets and armor and surrendered on the spot. The two cavalrymen advanced towards the Chinese army one after another, and finally met near the Chinese army.
Gao Kan rode forward all the way, following the flags to look for Fang Jun. When he saw Fang Jun sitting firmly on the horse with his helmet on, surrounded by soldiers and generals, he came slowly forward.
An Ma dismounted his horse and trotted forward. When he got to Fang Jun's horse, he knelt down on one knee to perform military salutes and said loudly: "The last general, Gao Kan, has an audience with the commander-in-chief!"
On that day, Fang Jun hurriedly set off for the expedition and said goodbye before the army. Who could have imagined that the situation would change suddenly after that, and fierce battles would be fought one after another in both the DPRK and China as well as on the border. It is only now that the two armies are joining forces, which seems to indicate that the haze shrouding the sky will eventually dissipate.
The warm sunshine shines on the earth.
Behind him, countless Youtun guards who stayed behind at Xuanwu Gate stepped forward and shouted at the top of their lungs: "We have an audience with the commander-in-chief!"
More than 10,000 people roared in unison, their morale skyrocketed, their ambitions became fierce, and the sound waves rolled and vibrated on the plateau, shaking the clouds!
