Fengtian Military Village!

With the gathering of troops in Guanzhong, Xue Ne held the first military meeting.

As the head coach, he is wearing a bright bright light armor and with the majesty that has been through the battlefield, he only has a vast and unrestrained demeanor.

The ones he attacked were Bai Daogong, Du Binke, Yang Chuke, An Sishun, Kang Haiyuan, Li Chang, Ma Wei, Zhao Chengen, Guo Zhiyun, Qin Yili... and other generals. The Tubo attack was so powerful that Li Longji was particularly cautious. All the generals arranged by him were military leaders in the court.

Li Longji's caution is one of the causes of Xue Ne's headache.

Since the civil strife of Tubo, the Turks have only been focusing on development for more than ten years and have not experienced a great war. Many military leaders in the court relied on their achievements in the coup, and with some of the qualifications they have achieved, very few people can truly have combat experience.

Xue Ne's trustless confidant must be used, but he dare not use it very much, but he is worried about it.

"Everyone, the latest trends of the Tubo bandits have been heard in front of them. While they were stationed in Jincheng with heavy troops, they sent cavalry to Youyi on the front lines of Weizhou, Longzhou and Qizhou. They were wandering around, plundering counties and attacking villages, and destroying bridges. Do you have any ideas?" Xue Ne glanced at the hall and put down the information in his hand. The whereabouts of the three Youyi troops of Tubo were recorded in detail.

In order to find out the general traces and movements of the Tubo Youyi Army, Xue Ne sacrificed many scouts to explore the way.

Bai Daogong, the general of the Left Wu Guard, said first: "The intention of the bandits is quite obvious. They are in Jincheng. They are unwilling to fight to the death with our main force. They want to use You Yi's army to delay our army. Jincheng is weak and must advance as soon as possible is the best strategy."

Xue Na said calmly: "How to advance?"

Bai Daogong said without hesitation: "Every step by step, as the saying goes, sharpening a knife will not delay chopping wood. If Tubo wants to use You Yi's army to delay our army's success, our army will only use spears and axes to open the road, support the left and right with strong crossbows, and the central army will support the cavalry and swords and shields. Along the way, we will spread horse scouts to advance carefully and not give Tubo an opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity. Tubo You Yi's army will be useless. As long as we approach Dalai Valley, Tubo will retreat undoubtedly."

As soon as Bai Daogong finished speaking, the Right Jinwu General Kang Haiyuan immediately said: "The last general agrees with General Bai's plan. The way to use troops is to first establish himself as an invincible place. As long as our central army is not defeated, Tubo will be defeated."

Xue Ne raised his eyebrows, and he did not deny that what Kang Haiyuan said was reasonable, and the military books did say so. But how can we blindly follow the military books in war? What's more, Bai Daogong and Kang Haiyuan's conservatism were just to retreat the enemy. Tubo invaded the Tang Dynasty and did not want to break the enemy's strategy, but found a way to retreat the enemy. What's the point?

"I don't agree with the views of the two generals!"

Just when Xue Na was secretly dissatisfied, there was a wave of opposition from the hall. Looking for the sound, he was the last military envoy, Wang Haibin. He was not even a general and was not qualified to attend the meeting, but Xue Na specifically allowed him to attend the military meeting.

Wang Haibin came out and said, "Weizhou, Longzhou and Qizhou are all the territory of our Tang Dynasty. The Tubo bandits were in the territory of our Tang Dynasty, plundering counties and attacking villages, and acted recklessly, treating our Tang Dynasty as nothing. This wind cannot be long and cannot be tolerated. We should take the initiative to lure them to fight and annihilate them, rather than passively resisting. This can also reduce the pressure on Jincheng."

Bai Daogong looked unhappy and hummed disdainfully in his heart: "Little Army Envoy!"

"The King's Army Envoy!" Kang Haiyuan also said very seriously: "The elite cavalry of Tubo is famous all over the world. They come and go like the wind. If there are few soldiers, attack, retreat, and if there are no enemies, they will not be entangled. If there are many soldiers, the opponent will not fall into a trap. If there are few soldiers, they will be defeated. If there are few soldiers, they will be defeated. If there are too simple things to think about!"

Wang Haibin said without hesitation: "Why should General Kang develop the ambition of others and destroy his own power? As a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, even if blood splatters on the battlefield, he cannot be afraid of Tubo traitors. Ambassador Xue, if Meng Buqie, is willing to act as a vanguard army, to open the way for the central army, and fight against Tubo Youyi." He was full of passion and passion.

Xue Ne slapped the table and said, "Since the military commander's words, I remember that you have two thousand elite cavalry under your command. I am placing you six thousand and ordering you to be the vanguard... to fight against the Tubo Youyi Army."

"Receive the order!" Wang Haibin didn't have much joy on his face, but looked cautious and resolute.

************

Lanzhou Jincheng!

The horn of "Wuwu" siege finally rang!

The newborn sunlight shines through the clouds and shines on the desolate land, illuminating the armor and weapons without soldiers inside and outside Jincheng, reflecting dazzling cold light.

The wind and thunder shook, flags rose everywhere, and war drums roared.

Qili Xu sat on the back of a horse, looked at the towering Jincheng, raised his whip and shouted, "Climb the city!"

As a long-standing rival who has experienced many battles, Qilixu did not place all hope on that killer move. The killer move is a wonderful chess, but a wonderful chess never means a must-win chess piece, it is just a chance to win. So he planned to use that trick at the critical moment to make the opportunity bigger. Even if the wonderful chess fails, he still has the chance to break the city with a few days of strong attack.

These days he has been making simple siege equipment for today.

At his order, the Tubo soldiers carried more than 60 ladders wrapped in soldiers who charged to the city and rushed forward.

Pei Min's ears were filled with the sound of huge horns. Looking at the Tubo soldiers who were swarming up like ants, a little cold sweat broke out in his palms.

Compared to the small fights before, this is the real battlefield.

"The stone throwing cart is ready to... let it go!"

"Big wooden car crossbow...shoot!"

When the enemy approached, Pei Min issued an attack order without hesitation.

A huge cannon stone passed by a long rainbow in the air. The biggest feature of cannon stone is its lack of accuracy. However, when facing an ant-like soldiers, there is no need to be accurate. Many people fell to the ground and cried to their parents. Many people were shot directly in the head and chest, and they fell to death without saying a word.

The big wooden chariot crossbow is even more scary. As the most powerful crossbow of the Tang Dynasty, the big wooden chariot crossbow requires ten people to work together to shoot an arrow. Often, one arrow can penetrate two or three people. If it weren't for a condescending shooting, it would be no problem to penetrate seven or eight people. The crossbow arrow accompanied by the sound of a scattered bow, and a one-meter-long crossbow arrow broke out through the air. A Tubo soldier who protected his shield above his head unfortunately won the lottery. The shield guarding the head was split into pieces and broke in an instant. The powerful crossbow arrow did not weaken at all, and passed directly from his face, penetrated from the back of his head, and pierced into the chest of a Tubo soldier behind him. The crossbow arrow was too powerful, and he took both of them back and nailed to the ground, like a skewer of flesh.

The first soldier who was in the crossbow was still good and was already dead. The one who was in the crossbow behind was not so lucky. He hung it on the crossbow arrow and felt the pain of the strong crossbow piercing his chest. He had to run out of the front and back, and he dripped the blood in his body bit by bit. Not only them, but similar situations were everywhere on the battlefield.

Although the crossbow arrow is not as powerful as the cannon stone, the bloody effect it can bring is no less than the former.

Seeing the tragic results brought by the crossbow chariot, Qili Xu's heart trembled. He had participated in many battles. However, the enemy who attacked was either the six tribes of Nanzhao or the small countries such as Xiangxiong. He had seen such a terrible weapon for defending the city. He had long heard of the terrible weapon for defending the city in the Tang Dynasty. When he saw it today, it was indeed worthy of its reputation.

However, the greater the power, the greater the disadvantages. The long loading project is the fatal disadvantage of stone throwing cars and crossbows.

In their eyes, the Tubo warriors were baptized by the cannon stones and crossbows, and more than 5,000 Tubo soldiers successfully approached a hundred steps away from Jincheng.

It is only a short distance from the Jincheng wall.

Pei Min issued a shooting order without hesitation.

Four hundred crossbowmen sprinkled four hundred arrows on the enemy cluster.

Compared with the huge defects of the stone-throwing cart and the crossbow cart itself, arrows are the real weapon to defend and kill the enemy. In this round, nearly 100 Tubo soldiers were directly damaged, and the effect was obvious.

Pei Min was planning to conduct the second round of shooting, but saw that more than 5,000 Tubo soldiers who rushed within a hundred steps did not all jump into the city, but stopped. Some even threw down their shields and took out the bow and arrow hanging behind them.

When his face changed, Pei Min shouted without hesitation: "Hide, hide!" He secretly scolded the Tubo general for cunning, and actually used this tactical tactic of fighting that he had already fought for death.

They shot from top to bottom and from high to top, and they would never lose to Tubo archers. However, Tubo archers had 5,000, and there were still a steady stream of soldiers behind them. The Tang soldiers had only 4,000 available soldiers, and only more than 1,000 of them were good at archery. One transaction was a loss.

This is the capital of more willful soldiers and more willful soldiers!

Sure enough, arrow feathers came from the sky!

Arrows flew up to the top of the city, and the volleys of five thousand archers were not comparable to those of four hundred archers.

The dark arrows came from the sky like locusts, constantly shooting on battlements. Some fell on the top of the city, some fell downwards, and more they whizzed through the gaps in the city tower and shot into the sky.

There was a whizzing sound in my ears.

"Tubo's various tactical structures cannot be underestimated and taken lightly." Pei Min thought about the method of cracking, and was also glad that he called in time, otherwise the casualties would have been large, and at the same time it also shocked the accuracy of the Tubo archers. He thought to himself: It is definitely not a coincidence that Tubo can become a strong enemy of the Tang Dynasty. They are both the strengths of farming and nomadic peoples, but they have unique features.

Pei Min had no time to sigh, thinking of the cracking method of suppressing this firepower, he sent a command: "Blade and shield hand, prepare for throwing the hand. The knife and shield hand stretched the shield out of the city and received the arrow! The throwing hand took the opportunity to go to the city and dump the sand and soil!"

Shields stretched out their daughter's wall, blocking the flying arrows, and threw their hands to pour the sand and soil down the city.

The dust in the sky then swept towards the Tubo archers a hundred steps away. No matter how elite the Tubo archers were, they would be difficult to shoot again without opening their eyes.
