Chapter five hundred and forty-eight: Heaven has no way to enter the earth, no door
The guard in Guizi Town is a pioneer officer under Khalid, Ibn and Weilide of the Great Food Empire, and his name is Moad.
Mo Yade played an indispensable role in attacking the Anxi Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty.
Moad led an army of 10,000 people to attack the city and was invincible.
Just like this Guizi Town, it only took him two days to capture it.
Now after two days of repairs, Moyad is preparing to capture the Yanqi Governor's Mansion of the Tang Dynasty tomorrow.
Wait until Khalid Ibn and General Wei Lid captured the Shule Protectorate and the Bisha Protectorate.
When the time comes, if they capture a few more cities in the Tang Dynasty, then the entire western part of the Tang Dynasty and the territory of Nuo Da will be theirs.
When the time comes, he, Moyad, will be granted a large piece of land by virtue of his military merit.
With the title of nobility and land, he, Moyad, will reach the pinnacle of his life from now on.
Because they had been attacking cities and plundering territory, they had never encountered a decent attack.
As a direct result, the nerves of the soldiers from Moyad down to the bottom began to relax.
They believed that the Tang Dynasty was as vulnerable as the areas they had invaded and captured before.
That night, Moad drank a pot of grape wine from the Western Regions, hugged two beauties, and fell into a deep sleep.
During the night shift, some soldiers came in a hurry to report the news.
"General, it's not good! It's not good! Something big has happened!"
Moad, who was sleeping soundly, was furious. He stood up and opened the door. He kicked the soldier over and said angrily:
"You are a killer. If you dare to disturb my sleep, I will chop off your head today!"
The soldier said anxiously: "General, it's not good, it's not good! Something happened to the garrison outside the city!"
Um?
Something happened to the garrison outside the city?
After hearing the news, Moyad suddenly woke up, kicked up a flying kick, and kicked the soldier who had just gotten up from the ground to the ground again.
"You killer, tell me quickly, what happened to the garrison outside the city?"
"General, where the troops are stationed outside the city, there are fires everywhere, and faint sounds of fighting can be heard. It seems that the army of the Tang Dynasty is attacking."
After hearing the news, Moyad calmed down completely.
Moad has fought in the north and south, and has been invincible over the years.
He may take a nap sometimes, but in fact, he can definitely be regarded as a jackal on the grassland.
Moad calmed down and began to think quickly.
As for the Tang Dynasty, the invaders of the Tang Dynasty were not dazzled by the current victory.
The Tang Dynasty was the largest empire they encountered during their invasion.
In fact, they knew very well that the Tang Empire could not be as weak as it appeared now.
If this was the case, then the entire Tang Empire would have fallen apart.
In fact, they knew very well that this was the western border of the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty's control here was still very weak.
If Datang wanted to mobilize a large army, it would take at least two or three months.
And what they need is just such a period of time.
At this time, they could occupy the western border of Datang and build a defense line.
Then, have a real confrontation with Datang.
If the Tang army was very strong, they would mainly defend.
If the army of the Tang Dynasty was really vulnerable, then of course they wouldn't mind swallowing up this piece of fat meat from the Tang Dynasty.
According to their understanding, Datang's military strength in their west was actually very weak.
If they can't protect themselves enough, how can they send troops to attack them?
Could it be that reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty have actually arrived?
If this is the case, then all this can be explained clearly.
Although in the past two days, their scouts had not received any news about Datang's reinforcements.
But this is most likely because Datang blocked the news.
If this is the case, then all this can be explained.
When reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty arrived, they blocked the news and divided their forces to attack their garrison outside the city.
Their intention was to draw out the troops in the city and encircle them for reinforcements.
In just a moment, Moyad guessed Xue Rengui's plan clearly.
Of course, Xue Rengui's plan is actually almost a conspiracy.
Although you know that there must be an ambush outside, Xue Rengui is betting that Moyad will definitely lead troops to come to the rescue.
Moad would not sit back and watch the five thousand soldiers and horses outside the city do nothing.
At this time, after a short period of thinking, Moyad decisively issued the order for rescue.
Although the number of Datang's rescue troops outside the city is currently unknown, Moyad concluded that the number must not be too large.
The Tang army will definitely not arrive so soon.
According to Moad's inference, the number of reinforcements this time will not exceed 15,000.
And they still have to divide their troops to deal with their garrison, so the Tang army ambushing them outside the city will not exceed ten thousand people!
If they are not prepared at all, they may suffer a big loss.
But now he, Moyad, has noticed Datang's plan in advance. Even if their number is doubled, so what?
It is not unreasonable for them to feast on the cavalry and fight in all directions and become invincible.
He wanted to let the army of the Tang Dynasty know that if they underestimated their army, they would definitely pay the price in blood.
After making up his mind, Moyad quickly ordered five thousand cavalry.
Each of these cavalry horses is extremely majestic, and each knight is tall, brave and good at fighting.
Their weapons are sharp, their bows and arrows are indestructible, and their riding skills are unrivaled in the world!
They are the invincible cavalry who will make all enemies tremble!
Set off!
Following Moad's order, five thousand cavalry quickly left the city.
Since he knew that there would be an ambush in Datang, Moyad did not divide his troops.
Instead, it was decided to rescue the garrison where the three thousand soldiers were located first.
And in terms of formation, Moyad was also divided into three armies, namely the front army, the middle army and the rear army.
The personnel of these three armies are not densely packed, and a certain distance is maintained before and after.
In this way, no matter which one is attacked, the other two can quickly provide support.
In fact, Moyad also roughly judged the route of the ambush of the Tang army.
Not long after, Moyad led five thousand cavalry and came to a fork in the road.
This intersection is a flat open space.
This is actually not the best place for an ambush.
Because the surrounding terrain is very flat and the road conditions are also very good.
Such road conditions did not bring the ambush cavalry the condescending speed advantage.
It's not conducive to encirclement here either. It's very open on all sides, making it easy to escape.
However, many years of combat experience allowed Moyad to quickly determine that Datang's ambush was actually here.
This made Moyad extremely shocked and at the same time, he also scorned the generals of the Tang Dynasty.
This general of the Tang Dynasty is definitely a pig!
Otherwise, he wouldn't be ambushing him in a place like this.
In an instant, Moyad quickly thought of a defensive counterattack.
Moyad quickly issued an order, and Dashi's front army, middle army, and rear army quickly changed their formations and prepared to charge and kill the Tang ambush army in front.
The next moment, along with the sound of a drum, countless lights suddenly lit up from all sides.
The strong light stung the soldier, his eyes were temporarily blinded in an instant, and tears fell from his eyes.
These lights are naturally the lights on the steam tricycle.
In fact, for the time being, the research on batteries and light bulbs has been successful, but they are not yet mature enough to be used in military applications.
These light bulbs were redeemed by Li Min through the mall.
When the light bulb came on, Moyad was also stimulated to tears, and at the same time, he felt a strong sense of uneasiness in his heart.
The lights that lit up in front of him were beyond his comprehension.
Things seemed different from what he imagined.
However, now he can't even open his eyes, let alone issue orders in an instant.
Even if he gives an order, it will be difficult for his soldiers to carry it out.
"emission!"
At the next moment, Xue Rengui decisively gave the order to launch.
call out!
Phew! Phew!
Phew! Phew! Phew!
Suddenly, the sound of countless powerful crossbows piercing the air was heard.
When he heard this voice, Moyad couldn't help but feel jealous.
He heard in horror that it was the sound of a powerful crossbow.
Since the opponent has even used crossbows, the number of people coming will definitely not be less than 15,000.
Their goal is to annihilate them all.
Moyad hated himself for the first time because it was because of his arrogance that he put the five thousand Dashi soldiers he led into danger.
The next moment, the sound of crossbow arrows piercing into the body and the shrill screams of the Dashi soldiers echoed one after another on the battlefield.
As for the opponent, he didn't know how many crossbows he had prepared.
With each round of crossbow attacks, there was no telling how many of their soldiers' orders would be taken away.
With five thousand people, how many rounds of crossbow attacks can they withstand?
At this time, the stimulation brought by the bright light finally weakened.
Moyad tried his best to open his teary eyes.
Then, he soon discovered.
Their five thousand cavalry were surrounded by a giant vehicle from the other side.
Moad, I have never seen such a huge chariot.
The strong light was emitted from the chariot.
Those crossbow arrows should have been fired from the crossbow fixed on the chariot.
These crossbow arrows are very powerful and lethal.
His 5,000 cavalrymen had already lost at least 2,000 men and horses after just a few rounds of shooting.
This made Moyad's heart bleed.
The only good news is that this chariot is so huge that it will not go very fast.
Now, they can still break through!
Moyad drew out the long sword from his waist, pointed to the side, and shouted sternly: "All soldiers listen to the order, follow this general, and break out here!"
Having said that, Moad took the lead and broke through to the side.
Now, Moad no longer wants to rescue the Dashi troops stationed outside the city.
At this time, they must be in danger.
Now, Moyad just hopes to lead as many cavalrymen as possible to break through the encirclement.
Judging from the current situation, the direction in which he breaks through is the weakest point in the opponent's defense.
Now Moyad only hopes that their gods will bless them and they can break out smoothly.
At this moment, Moad was surprised to find out.
When they broke through, the opponent's chariot actually started up with them.
Of course, Moyad would not be so surprised that the chariot could move.
What shocked him was that the opponent's chariot was so fast.
Its speed is no less than that of their war horses.
In terms of speed, it may be slightly slower.
But the scary thing is that the crossbows are fixed on the chariots. While the chariots are moving forward, the crossbows can still attack without restraint.
And its range is much longer than their bows and arrows.
The current situation is that when they were evacuating, Datang's giant chariot team was following closely behind them.
During this process, people can also use crossbows to continuously shoot at them.
And the range of their bows and arrows couldn't reach people at all, so they could only be beaten passively.
In the process, he led less than 3,000 cavalry, and the number was still decreasing.
In just a quarter of an hour, as many as five to six hundred people were killed.
So far, more than half of the five thousand cavalry in his city have been lost.
The only good news may be that in terms of speed, they will still be faster than the opponent's chariot.
If this were not the case, then today they would have no way to ascend to heaven and no way to enter the earth.
After a while, Dashi's army once again left five or six hundred corpses, and only 1,780 cavalry survived.
But the good news is that they finally got rid of the pursuit of Datang's chariot team.
These people can finally escape.
Moad decided that after returning, he would immediately tell Khalid, Ibn, and General Velid the news.
Before they figured out how to break the Tang Dynasty's chariot battle formation, they would never be able to compete head-on with the Tang Dynasty.
If they fight hard, they will definitely be the ones who suffer.
However, at this moment, countless lights suddenly lit up directly in front of them.
The dazzling lights made them cry and close their eyes.
What's even worse is that the war horses under their crotches are currently running.
Stimulated by the strong light, these war horses were temporarily blinded. At this time, they would no longer run on the right track and began to run away in summer.
As a result, horses quickly began to collide with each other among Dashi's cavalry team.
However, these are not the things that scare Moad the most.
call out!
Phew! Phew!
The sound of powerful crossbows piercing the air sounded again, and the Great Food Cavalry was once again killed and injured.
This time, because it was a head-on attack, they were caught off guard, causing heavy casualties to the Dashi Cavalry.
In just one encounter, they lost five to six hundred horses dead and injured.
When they barely reacted and began to retreat from the side, they only had about a thousand cavalry left.
There were five thousand people when they came, but so far, only about a thousand are left, which is already an 80% loss.
In the era of cold weapons, this is definitely a defeat!
What made Moyad even more dismayed was that they ran not far to the side and were once again blocked by the Tang Dynasty's chariot team.
Moyad finally discovered in despair that it seemed that the Tang army had already prepared a hundred thousand ambush.
From the beginning, they never thought about letting them go!
