0578 The corpses are all over the place, and the thief chief is terrified

On the battlefield, the fierce fighting continued. The fierce battle between the thousands of wolf cavalry and the Tang army's Qibu team was just the beginning, and the subsequent battle intensity continued to increase, becoming more and more cruel and bloody.

In fact, this battlefield near Maling is not ideal for both parties involved in the war.

For the Turkic army, the cavalry field advantage cannot be fully utilized between the river and valley ridges that are bound on the plateau. They can only carry out certain clutches and formation transformations on this small-scale battlefield. They do not have the conditions for open and horizontal combat, and their combat effectiveness will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.

Special forces are often consumed. Once a high-intensity battle cannot be achieved quickly, its combat effectiveness will decline rapidly. For example, if the Thousand Wolf Cavalry who participated in the battle at the beginning, if they fight on a vast plain, the battle results will be completely different. Even if the Turkic horsepower does not continue, it can at least ensure that they can escape from the battle.

For the Tang army, they had given up a greater advantage. They had already arrived at Maling Fort first, and could defend the fort, waiting for the effort to block the Turks at a slight cost.

Now he has attacked in the field and has given up the advantage of the castle. Although he still has an advantage on the battlefield, casualties have also increased.

Especially the soldiers of the Qiezi army who fought in the first battle, although they chased and annihilated many elite wolf cavalrymen, they also suffered heavy casualties. When the chapati was in charge, nearly 300 troops died in battle, and most of the remaining ones were injured. After reinforcements from both sides entered the battlefield, the situation on the battlefield became more complicated. They fought against various variables and directly chased the wolf cavalry, and then they withdrew from the battlefield.

But for both sides of the war, this battle is necessary to continue. After all, war is not a simple deduction. Excellent generals can take advantage of the situation as much as possible and create conditions for the army that are more conducive to combat.

But often it is difficult for many wars to create an absolutely ideal combat environment. In this case, what is being competed is whether each of their fighting spirit can withstand the constraints of unfavorable conditions.

For Mochuo, the Kushui River Bay in Maling is not the intended ideal camp. Once it is restrained by the Tang army, the longer the time is delayed, the greater the loss of its combat power. Therefore, it is necessary to break through the Tang army's blockade of this territory. Otherwise, it will be the end of the destruction of the entire army!

As for Qi Biming, the idea is more complicated.

One is pressure from King Yong. King Yong ordered that no prisoners were left in this battle, which means that as much of the Turkic invaders should be eliminated as much as possible. This requires the Tang army to gain absolute control on the battlefield. Although the city is stable, once the Turkic power is defeated and dispersed, there is no time to encircle, annihilate and eliminate it.

The second is to shock the Hequ states. Although the Turks came south this time, although they wanted to take advantage of the internal turmoil of the Tang Dynasty and rob, their troops could go straight in. The Hu tribes along the way did not effectively restrain the Hu tribes in the Hequ states, which also exposed that the Hu tribes in Hequ states were in harmony and were no longer respectful to the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Qibi Ming will take this grand momentum this time, fight in the field of the city, and simply defeat and even encircle and suppress these invading thieves, thus creating a shock to the Hequ states, clearing up the Hu chiefs who have all had strange plots, and reorganizing the order between Hequ.

Although Qi Bi Ming was born in Tiele, his father Qi Bi He Li led his troops to the Tang Dynasty when he was young. Since then, he has followed Emperor Taizong and achieved his lifelong achievements in the Tang Dynasty. The same is true for Qi Bi Ming.

The Tiel tribes were originally a loose alliance. It can be seen from the ease of abandonment of the previous generation leader Xue Yantuo. They were just a marriage of friendship. How enchanting can such an alliance have?

Whether it is for various reasons, the Qizi and his son were honored and honored in the Tang Dynasty, which was much better than being a Hu chief on the Heshuo border. Therefore, when considering the Hequ issue, Qiziming was completely out of the position of a Tang general. Those who disrespect needed to be deterred, and those who chaotic laws needed to be killed!

With the support of his comrades, Qi Zizhang successfully withdrew from the battlefield. His robe was stained with blood but he couldn't take off his armor. He walked under the head coach's flag and crossed his hands and said, "I'm lucky that the general will not be humiliated. He will lead his troops to fight, kill more than half of the enemy, and return to report!"

Qi Ziming lowered his eyes and looked at his son. He found that his left shoulder was slightly collapsed and blood was pouring through his robe and clothes. He wanted to ask how he was injured, but since he was in front of the military formation, he only suppressed this little pity, but nodded slightly and said, "The tactics are quite appropriate. Retreat and rest for a while. If there is no major problem, go back and standby!"

After saying that, Qi Biming no longer paid attention to his son and continued to observe the situation on the battlefield.

At this time, both sides invested thousands of people, and the entire battlefield could no longer tolerate the previous tactics of cavalry galloping and changing formations. In the core area of ​​the battle, the soldiers on both sides had already abandoned their horses and fought in the field. Once the war horses were pulled down, the combat effectiveness of the Turkic soldiers would be weakened by at least 30%.

Although these Turkic elites are also equipped with hard armor, sharp spears, and even other equipment choices such as bows and swords. However, when it comes to the complexity of the ordnance and the coordination and changes of various tactics, they are no match for the Tang army at all.

A standard Tang army main soldiers have as many as a dozen weapon choices in addition to basic armored swords, bows and crossbows. Although the weight is limited, these weapons cannot be carried on the battlefield, as long as the officers are deliberately allocated and various types of soldiers are matched with different arms, they can greatly enrich the tactical choices in various combat environments.

In the infantry battle of the Tang army, the most classic tactics were the forest of refusing horses and spears. When Su Dingfang went to the Western Turks, he set up a formation beside the river, and set up a spear to form a forest, accompanied by a powerful crossbow. Although there were 100,000 Western Turks, they could not break it. There was also a battle formation that entered the wall and advanced to kill powerful enemies.

The situation on the battlefield today is more complicated. Although both sides fought with cavalry, as the battle became more intense, they gradually increased their troops. The space left on the battlefield was already very small, and they could not accommodate cavalry again and again, and the war horses became a drag.

After the two sides abandoned their horse-school battles, during the short handover, the weapon of long spear was not conducive to killing the enemy. Both sides were well-armed. Once the armor could not be broken and the enemy was bullied, the spear was not conducive to returning to defense.

Although the gun has a long tip and has the effect of breaking armor, it is difficult to effectively break armor and kill enemies with great inertia, if the arm strength is swinging alone. Therefore, after the dismounting of the horse, most of the Turkic soldiers chose a battle knife, which is also one of their few backup weapons.

But in contrast, the Tang army had more choices, among which Modao formed a formation and advanced along the wall, as the main force in the battle formation, constantly approaching forward. The battle swords used in the Turkic army were far less powerful than Modao, and the blockers were invincible, and the front line was compressed step by step.

If it is just Modao, it is not enough to completely lock in the advantage. After all, Modao has extremely high requirements for users and is expensive. The Tang army has only 200 Modao players who have been put into the battlefield. In order to throw these 200 people into the killing of the enemy, more than 2,000 people were used to cooperate. In order to ensure that the Modao formation is not dispersed, a large number of jumping soldiers must be arranged on both wings.

As for the jumping soldiers guarding the Mo Dao Formation, they are not traditional sword and shield warriors. Although the horizontal sword also has a certain armor-breaking effect, it is not ideal overall.

Because they knew that the Turkic armors in this battle were good, the Tang army carried many armor-breaking weapons, such as hammers, and even iron pickaxes used to marching and camping and digging wells, in order to shake and kill the enemy. Many Turkic soldiers were hit and their armor was sunken. On the surface, there might not be any obvious injuries, but the internal organs were shaken so that their internal organs were out of their position and they vomited blood and died.

What shocked the Turkic soldiers the most was that the reason why these Tang soldiers fought so bravely seemed to be blessed by some evil magic. Because every time the Tang army killed one person, they shouted "Ten Shi" loudly. Most Turkic soldiers did not know the intention, but they obviously felt that whenever the Tang army shouted like this, their momentum grew a little.

So on the battlefield, some Turkic soldiers were also trying to scream, and suddenly imitated the Tang army. However, while they were still waiting to feel the blessing of the alien power, they were knocked to the ground by the Tang army beside them with a hammer.

"I was so scared that I thought I was hurt by mistake... Ten thousand comrades!"

After the roaring, the Tang army soldiers continued to fight forward to fight the enemy bravely.

"No retreat! No..."

In the Turkic camp, when he saw his troops on the battlefield being forced backwards, he was anxious for a while, and even wanted to go out to the camp to supervise the battle.

The loss of troops on the battlefield was heavy, and Mochuo naturally took it in his eyes, but at the same time he also realized that in terms of military strength, it seemed that the Tang army on the opposite side was less than their Turkic troops, because some Tang army soldiers retreated briefly and took a rest, and then continued to fight. It was obvious that they did not have enough reserve force.

However, this discovery was not very effective, because on the front battlefield, after the defeat in the first battle, the Tang army had been suppressing their Turkic troops' crazy output. As the casualties increased, the fighting will of the troops also declined rapidly.

Although there has not been a serious defeat, the Tang army advanced forward faster and faster. In particular, the Tang army's tactics were far superior to the Turks. On the battlefield, the cavalry not only guarded the infantry and rushed, but also replaced each other internally and externally. The cavalry replaced the infantry to attack the Turks on the front, while the infantry stood up like a forest to block the Turks' approach.

Although the Turkic soldiers on the battlefield are also mixed with infantry and cavalry, more people are forced to get off the horse and fight against the enemy due to the battlefield environment, but there is no corresponding tactics.

Seeing that this continues, the troops on the battlefield may be forced back to Hewan directly. It will be much more difficult to rush out by then.

So Mochu ordered again: "Continue to increase the army, and you must break through the blockade of the Tang army! The Tang army has not many troops, and after several fierce battles, you will definitely be exhausted!"

However, after he finished the order, he found that there were few responses around him. When he turned around, he found that several tribal chiefs were reluctant to reveal it.

"Khan, the Tang army surrounded the road ahead, and it is very killing. Even if all tribal warriors are left here, they may not be able to kill them! The sons and men are all young and strong in the tribe. Do they really have to be sent out and let the Tang army massacre?"

A young chief said with courage: "There are more than a thousand Tang prisoners and thousands of miscellaneous Hus in the camp. We can use it as a threat to let the Tang Kingdom stop the troops and let them go! Even if they don't cherish their lives, we can still give up some treasures. If they continue to kill, the Tang people will suffer heavy losses. Now return the people and wealth to them and let them go..."

After hearing this, Mochu's face suddenly became extremely gloomy, but after a moment of silence, he still acted like a good person and pointed to the young chief who spoke and said, "It makes sense to say this, so you can go to see the general of the Tang army."
