Chapter 223 Thousands of cavalry break through and assault cavalry
Gai Zhongcheng was still sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, holding the tea cup in his hand four or five times. Suddenly, the Tang cavalry from the front came to report that Mohe Dagan's large banner had retreated fifty feet.
Gai Jiayun put down his tea cup, stood up, and ordered the generals of the Chinese army who stood up at the same time: "Zang Xiye!"
A general wearing blue and black light armor stepped forward and crossed his hands: "The end is here."
"You lead your three thousand light cavalry to the east battlefield of Suiye City to rescue Mohe Dagan, and use the power of thunder to plunge directly into the place where the fire-breathing fairy Khan is! After the fire-breathing fairy escapes, you immediately pursue him and must capture him alive.
."
"Here!"
"Yang Xilie!"
Yang Xilie, the deputy envoy of Jiedu, stepped forward and crossed his hands: "The general is here!"
"You lead the army on the left side and rush to the battlefield in the east of the city. After the fire-breathing Immortal Khan is defeated, intercept and kill the remaining troops of his army, and try your best to disrupt and block Mohe Ganda's army from pursuing the fire-breathing Immortal Khan."
Yang Xilie understood the idea, crossed his hands and said: "Here!"
Gai Jiayun faced the crowd and ordered: "Commanders and captains of the Chinese army! Follow me to clean the battlefield and express my condolences to Mohe Khan!"
Everyone had already resigned and went to lead the army to fight. Fumeng, who was standing nearby eagerly waiting to receive the mission, was dumbfounded. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with him.
He hurriedly came to Gai Jiayun, crossed his hands and asked: "Gai Zhongcheng, what are the arrangements for the left and right Yuhou armies led by me? Can I chase the Fire Spitting Immortal with General Zang Xile's Qingqi?"
Gai Jiayun couldn't help but laugh, patted his shoulder and said: "The Yuhou army on the left and right are a combination of foot and cavalry. How can they catch up with Zang Xiye's light cavalry? Do you want to follow him and eat ashes?"
Fumeng Lingcha's face turned red and he had to lower his head and cough awkwardly.
Gai Zhongcheng stopped teasing the real person, raised his head and said proudly: "I have a more important appointment for you. I am wise enough to accept the order!"
Fumeng crossed his hands on his chest and replied solemnly: "The end will be here."
"You lead the Yuhou army on the left and right and the rear army on the right, and join forces with Bahna Ashilanda Khan to attack the Talas and defeat the black Khan Erweiteqin!"
Fumeng was suddenly stunned. He had never thought that such a good thing would happen to him. Attacking Talos and destroying another group of black surnamed Tuqishi was equivalent to winning the battle.
For the other half, from now on, it was not only Gai Zhongcheng who was famous in the Western Regions, but also him.
Gai Jiayun saw that he had a different look on his face and turned around and asked, "What?"
Fumeng Lingcha knelt down excitedly, bowed his head to the ground and saluted: "Thank you very much, Zhongcheng, for thinking highly of my husband, Meng Lingcha. I will definitely live up to your expectations."
Gai Jiayun turned sideways and waved his hand: "Go."
Fumeng Lingzha, shaking his cloak, had just walked out of the tent when he suddenly thought of something. He turned back and crossed his hands and asked Gai Jiayun: "Zhongcheng, what should I do with Erwei Teqin?"
Gai Jiayun thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "One black Khan is enough."
"The general understands."
Just as he turned to leave, Gai Jiayun stopped him: "Lingcha, don't lead the charge alone, but make more use of these auxiliary troops from the countries in the Western Regions. They are originally used to back up our swords."
Fumeng Lingcha nodded and walked straight out of the tent. He did not agree with some of Gai Zhongcheng's actions. Most of the countries in the Western Regions had annexed themselves to become Jidi Prefectures. When the Tang army went on an expedition, they had the obligation to send troops to help, but they
They are not fools, nor are they submissive weaklings. They just hope to stabilize their rule by relying on the Tang Dynasty. This is a relationship of mutual dependence.
The Tang Empire needed vassal states to assume the obligations of ministers, but the vassal states also needed the Tang Dynasty to give them legal status. This kind of use of power to cut leeks would sooner or later make the countries in the Western Regions lose their loyalty to the Tang Dynasty.
Anyway, his husband is not capable of such a thing.
…
On the battlefield in the east of Suiye City, Moheganda's side has shown signs of decline, but he is still trying to hold on. The two sides are fighting fiercely to this point, and no matter who wants to retreat, it is impossible. The final result is that one side is overwhelmed.
the other side.
There is another reason for Mohe Dagan's support, that is, he firmly believes that Gai Jiayun will not let him be defeated. The sudden knight Shi Huang has more value for the Tang Dynasty and the despicable Gai Zhongcheng.
.
The battlefield has spread to the personal guards of Yazhang Dahu. What kind of power does Mohe have? Maybe the next moment, the next moment, his troops will be completely defeated due to too many casualties.
"Fuck your mother, Gai Jiayun! If you don't come again, I will be doomed!" Mo He beat his chest and cursed loudly.
But at this moment, the vibration of horse hooves came from the northwest of Broken Leaf City Wall. Blue-black battle armor and horses of various colors marched hand in hand, forming a formation like flying geese. The leader of the hundreds of horsemen carried flailing weapons on their backs.
After raising the flag, Zang Xiye was the first to bear the brunt. He grabbed the horse's reins and loudly ordered: "Avoid the front of the soldiers! Point directly at the fire-breathing fairy's banner!"
He Mo's great sadness turned into great joy in a blink of an eye, he raised his blade and shouted: "Reinforcements have arrived! Hold on, let me kill!"
The Anxi cavalry were like a green and black torrent, rushing straight towards the place where the fire-breathing immortal Khan's army encircled the army.
Du Mozhi suddenly turned pale, pulled the reins of his horse and shouted loudly: "Return to defense quickly! Protect me! Protect the Khan!"
The cavalrymen of the Guards hurriedly drew out their swords, pulled their jumping horses, and faced the sudden Anxi cavalry in fear. They had exhausted their momentum in the previous battle, but the Tang army came with power and was full of energy!
The skirmishers on the battlefield also hurriedly turned back and scattered in front of the protective army in an unformed manner, trying to form the first line of blocking defense.
The charge of the horse formation was getting closer and closer, like a tide rushing towards the fire-spitting Khan's troops. In front of him, there was only a hundred steps between the two sides. Zang Xile ordered: "Take off the bow!"
The light cavalrymen took out their horn bows from their horse's bow pouches in unison, strung the arrows, and raised the arrows.
They each looked for targets on their horses, drew their bows and threw them out. Three thousand cavalry fired in a volley. Arrows fell into the enemy like locusts, and those who were hit by the arrows fell to the ground.
The guards drew their bows and fought back. Zang Xile ordered everyone to lie down on their horses. The solid armor on their backs and shoulders resisted the impact of the arrows. The cavalry sat up straight and drew their bows again. This time
The protective army also fell under the rain of arrows, and screams could not be heard.
After two rounds of drawing their bows, the distance between the Anxi cavalry and the enemy was no more than thirty steps. More than a hundred cavalry in the front row raised their horses' poles, which were as tight as the teeth of a comb. They held the poles under their armpits and aimed at them.
The enemy's cavalry poked through, and the flesh and blood that penetrated flew away from the horses like sandbags.
Mohdagan in the distance came back to his senses, raised his short-edged knife and shouted loudly: "Our reinforcements have arrived. Kill them!"
The retreating assault cavalry members of Shi Mohe's tribe raised their steel knives one after another and charged towards the retreating Hei surname.
Zang Xiye ignored everything in front of him. There was only one target in his eyes, and that was the location of the large quilt tanned and sewn with white wolf skin!
Anxi Qingqi and the pro-guard army collided together. The front row used their horses to carry out a candied haws-lub-style killing. The pro-guard army seemed to have had their heads shaved. Once the back row broke into the enemy's formation, they pulled out their horizontal knives from their waists and slashed at them.
Killing on horseback.
But at this time, Du Mogan and Fire-Tumbling Immortal Khan could not bear the pressure of death, turned their horses and fled, leaving the tooth flag and the big banner in the battle formation.
The black flags of the pro-protection army fell one after another, and the white wolf-skin banner was crumbling under the impact of Anxi Qingqi, just like a sail crumbling in the storm on the sea. Three or five cavalry Shi Hanzi still guarded the banner with all their might.
Zang Xiye took off his horn bow and fired a whistle, making a long whistle in the air. He held the back of the big man holding the flagpole in the middle. Dozens of masters on horseback and archery behind him bent their bows and shot at the same time. The arrows were like chasing after each other.
Liu Ying poked the guard team into hedgehogs in the blink of an eye.
The seriously injured Tuqishi warriors rushed forward without interruption, and were shot down by flying arrows. In the blink of an eye, they were piled into a hill of corpses, while the white wolf skin banner still stood crookedly in the center of the corpses.
"The Khan has escaped!"
Someone in the crowd shouted violently, and the fighting spirit of the black Tuqishi soldiers instantly collapsed, and the skirmishers broke away on horseback or running.
However, there are still several personal guards left on the pile of corpses at the Dahu, guarding the totem symbol of Khan Tuqishi.
The cavalrymen of the Tang Army were all moved. This was the wealth Sulu had left behind in the ten years since he conquered the Western Regions. The personal guards who guarded the Khan's tent were brave and fearless of death.
Zang Xiye ignored these remnant soldiers who were adhering to their spiritual bottom line. He galloped on his horse and shouted loudly: "Go around the great banner! Pursue the fire-breathing Immortal Khan!"
The goose-shaped formation formed by the cavalry rushed in front of Da Bao. The flag bearers leaned against the flagpole and closed their eyes in despair. However, the next moment the cavalry formation suddenly separated to both sides, like a bifurcated tributary bypassing Da Bao's corpse pile.
, the dust and blood mist raised by the iron hoofs trampling on the corpse and the ground filled the air, making the banner seem to be hidden in the clouds and mist. The rolling torrent chased towards the distance.
