Located between a peak and valley dozens of miles southwest of Wang Xiaojiemizha, a team of more than 500 Tang Jun Youyi was resting and eating.

The peaks and ridges stretch out, and the rocks are abrupt. Occasionally, some high-altitude snow melts along the mountain, but they can't flow at all. They only nourish a little green color at the halfway point.

Some people in the team climbed the mountain to get water, some fed war horses, and some picked up firewood branches. Of course, people who were watching the patrol were also indispensable.

Some of this team are old soldiers in Heyuan who have been guarding for many years, and some are elite soldiers who have entered Long. They are running on the horses for half a day. After stopping, some people can't help but get hungry and take off the rice from the skin on their waists and eat.

"Wait a minute, take the water before eating! The sea wind is dry and there is no drinking water to eat. The grain food enters the abdomen and is afraid that it will damage the skin! "

An old man from Heyuan said to stop him after seeing this. Seeing that the new man was still hungry, he said again: "In the past, he had a strong belly bloating and thought it was a suffocation of abdominal air. After death, he took a caesarean section and saw that the rice was all accumulated in the stomach and intestines and swelling into a lump. If he didn't pay attention to the taste, he could still catch it and continue eating."

When the new servant heard this, he felt a dry retching. The food of the food quickly retreated, but he couldn't help but complain about the poor military rations in the Longbian border. He heard that he was the elite inside the pass who had just entered Long.

"Satisfied, how can Longyou be with Longbian? That is, His Highness Yong climbed Long this year and gathered grains to nourish the army. If it were in previous years, even such meals would not be available day and night."

Hearing the old soldiers say this, the new soldiers are also energetic, and at the same time they can't help but talk about the many benefits of His Highness Yong: "Your Highness knows that the soldiers love soldiers, and his deeds are more than one or two. Rewards and rewards have not been seen in recent years, so both internal and external armored soldiers are happy to die for His Highness Yong. In the early days, His Highness led hundreds of armored soldiers, and then he shook the palace defense and corrected the deed..."

The old soldiers in Heyuan were also quite curious about the heroic deeds of His Highness Yong. When the soldiers in the pass talked about this topic, they couldn't help but come over to ask for details.

"Everyone's closed!"

At this time, the commander Guo Zhiyun, who was setting up a whistle around, returned to the temporary camp. When he heard the soldiers discussing, he immediately pulled his face and said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness Yong is the venerable of the Tian family. It is a power or kindness. Our camp soldiers can be respectfully led. How can we use it to shake our tongue to relieve boredom!"

Guo Zhiyun was brave and powerful, and was extremely prestigious among the troops. When he heard his reprimand, everyone hurriedly stopped talking, but some people couldn't help laughing and said, "The people in the camp said that Your Highness Yong appreciated Captain Guo. In this battle, our soldiers and troops will do their best to help Captain win great merits. After the war, the governor and the governor can bear it!"

Guo Zhiyun is rigorous in character and does not like to discuss these topics. However, the scholars and others said this, which was also admiration for him. After hearing this, a smile appeared on their faces: "Only by being able to control a great thief, we can achieve great achievements. We use our lives in the formation, not for others, but we can feel our kindness. We will take advantage of the great army's life and live up to our ambitions and future."

While speaking, the people who climbed the mountain to collect water had returned, and set up simple stoves on the spot to make fire to cook. In the early summer, the sky and the earth were full of moisture, and the firewood branches and smoke picked up were quite large, so they soared into the sky.

You Yi is different from a simple scout. Scouts are secret operations of a small number of elite soldiers, mainly focusing on spying on military aircraft. You Yi also undertakes many combat tasks, so you don’t have to hide your whereabouts carefully. Sometimes you don’t see the enemy’s traces for a long time, and you even have to take the initiative to reveal traces to attract the enemy, destroy the You army that is active in the enemy’s troops in the area, thereby suppressing the overall initiative of its army.

After the stove fire rose, the soldiers quickly entered the restaurant and stopped chatting. Soon after, the soldiers watching the left whistle issued a warning voice.

Guo Zhiyun signaled the soldiers to speed up their meals, and he looked at the direction of the warning. He climbed a tall and smooth rock on the hillside and saw smoke and dust flying behind the slopes several miles away, and there were eagles and harriers hovering in the sky above.

Seeing this, Guo Zhiyun made a gesture to the rear, and the soldiers behind quickly finished their meals and checked their saddles, bridles, armor and weapons.

The enemy's journey was getting closer and closer, and it seemed that it was not passing by, but came for them. After judging this, Guo Zhiyun closed his troops and shouted: "Transfer the position and prepare for battle."

The Youyi teams boarded their horses one after another and evacuated to the rear along the gentle slope. At the same time, the appearance of the Tubo army chasing the rear was completely exposed. It was a team of more than 700 people, but there were as many as 2,000 war horses, and they ran high speed in the wilderness, with a huge momentum.

The mobility of Tubo’s gamblers is stronger. The most intuitive thing is that the number of war horses assigned to its troops is larger, and one soldier and two cavalry is the basic configuration, and sometimes even more.

Although the Tang army You Yi was also an elite and high-end team, it was still much inferior to Tubo in this regard. For example, Guo Zhiyun's team had more than 800 horses, but there were 200 of them just pack horses carrying military supplies and equipment, and they could not fight.

Therefore, Guo Zhiyun's team belongs to the second-tier team in Youyi. Its main responsibility is to discover and fight with the enemy Youyi, attract the enemy's military strength, and thus create opportunities for other first-tier Youyi to siege and kill the elite Tubo.

After all, the high mobility of Tubo itself has the advantage of home court. If you just escape and avoid battle, it will be difficult for the Tang army to catch up with the enemy and cause effective damage.

There was a mountain pass ten miles away from the rear that was suitable for the Tang army to fight, but during the process of transferring positions, the distance between the two sides was quickly narrowed. The Tubo army chasing the front even began to waving its arms and scattering the flying stones to attack the Tang army.

Tubo's armor is excellent, but he is not good at making crossbow equipment, which is a great disadvantage in long-range strikes in field battles. However, the Tubo army also has its own unique offensive method, which is to use a rope bag to throw stones to attack.

This seems a bit joking, but during the high speed running, the pebbles themselves are blessed by the horse. Once thrown out, they can even kill the war horses in a short distance, which is very lethal.

Hearing the screams of people and horses being hit by stone bullets from behind, Guo Zhiyun frowned and shouted: "The big archer left the army and sniped the thief army!"

As soon as he finished speaking, nearly a hundred Tang soldiers on the left and right wings of the running team left and right and left and right and left the brigade, and they left the mountainside on both sides. They turned over and got off the horse and shot.

The Tubo army's armor and weapons were as strong as the armor, but in this high-speed pursuit, of course, it was impossible to wear neatly. Even if the horses were replaced, the manpower could not withstand the long-distance negative armor.

Therefore, when the Tang army's strong archer led the bow to reflex, most of the Tubo army chasing the front were killed by arrows, and the rear army did not dare to chase them too close, and slowed down their speed, causing the pursuit to stop.

The elite troops in the wild fight for each other, and if the Tang army did not have a large archer with strong arm strength and a very long range, they might be exhausted by the Tubo to death. But now that the Tang army is equipped, the Tubo army can only allow the Tang army to transfer to favorable terrain after losing several lives.

Seeing that the archers had successfully stopped the Tubo army from chasing, they rode on horseback and joined the large troops in front.

Soon, the team moved to a spare battlefield that they had chosen before, which was a valley with a small mouth and a large belly. After dismounting, Guo Zhiyun was not as good as the one who had lost his armor and led a hundred large archers to line up on the periphery to wait for the enemy.

As for the other soldiers, they drove their war horses to the center of their hometown, then dismounted and quickly armed with armor. At this time, the Tubo army also stopped around the corner and began to prepare to fight in armor.

The two sides had no communication with each other, but were just fighting against time to arm each other. Time passed quickly. When the Tang army's rear formation was equipped with a hundred long spear and shield hands and took over the position of the archers in front, the Tubo army also completed the initial installation, and some of them left the headquarters and rode their horses in front to invade the Tang army's formation defense.

Compared with the neat crossbows of the Tang army, the long-range attacks of the Tubo attacked the formation seemed to be diverse, with various objects, flying stones, throwing cones, and captured and homemade crossbows.

Although such a blow also has a certain lethality, the overall coordination is not high enough, so the formation defense pressure caused to the Tang army is not great.

However, when he saw that the Tubo army in the rear was still armed and had already started to wear war horses, Guo Zhiyun's face changed suddenly. There were not many heavy cavalry in the Tubo army, but once it appeared, it would definitely be a nightmare for light-mounted soldiers like You Yi.

"Retreat the formation, withdraw the formation! Go to the Modao Team!"

In fact, the Modao Team has a limited lethality to equipped heavy cavalry, but in this kind of wild encounter, except for the Modao Team, the other military formations are as fragile as paper when facing equipped heavy cavalry.

The Tang army in the valley kept shooting and counterattacking while shrinking the battle formation backwards. The terrain at the entrance of the valley was too flat, and once the enemy heavy cavalry charged, it would be even more difficult to stop.

There are quite a few arcs of ditches in the valley, which can offset the rush of the heavy cavalry to a certain extent. However, once it completely retreats into the valley, it will create a favorable situation for Tubo to catch turtles in a jar. The Tang army in the valley can only fight to the death.

But under such circumstances, there was no better choice. The Tubo army used more than a dozen lives to test the Tang army's archers. Now that Tubo has set up an unconventional army such as heavy cavalry, the Tang army of course has to pay some price.

When most of the Tang army retreated into the valley to re-arrange their formations, some archers stayed at the entrance of the valley in order to snipe the Tubo Light Cavalry and prevent them from rushing into the valley too early to sweep the battle formation.

A quarter of an hour later, the Tubo heavy cavalry was armed. Although there were only fifty armored groups, they were almost unsolvable in this small battlefield. At this time, the Tubo light cavalry that was hitting the valley entrance was even more ferocious. The lethality of the Tang army's crossbows was already limited, and now they could not even be able to prevent them from being able to prevent them.

So dozens of people at the entrance of the valley abandoned their bows and changed their guns, and arranged a thin but firm rifle array at the entrance of the valley. Most of the Tubo light cavalry that were hitting the front were penetrated by long spears. However, when the heavy cavalry advanced forward, the spear array was fragile and unrestrained.

"The moon-black geese fly high, Qinling escapes at night... I'm not lucky, so take the lead. If you survive, don't forget to give me a sacrifice when you step on the shore of the city..."

After the Tang army soldiers stayed at Gukou roared, they rushed up with their guns. Soon, the thin battle formation was rushed by Tubo's heavy cavalry, and the battlefield at Gukou suddenly turned bloody.

Seeing that the robe was going to die, the Tang soldiers in the valley were also red in their eyes and roared to vent their grief and anger. Guo Zhiyun led thirty Mo Dao's hands to set up formations on the flanks of the valley. Their faces were covered with armor, and they could no longer see their faces, but the knuckles holding the knife were faintly white.

The Tang army in the valley formed a formation according to its momentum. The charge of the Tubo heavy cavalry was like an iron hammer and hit the ground one by one. It was the first to rush towards the Tang army's war horses, which was to disperse the Tang army's motive power in order to completely wipe out the Tang army. The Tang army's war horses were disturbed by this and immediately fled to the surrounding slopes.

The valley is not small, and more than 400 Tang army soldiers did not gather together, of which 200 were guarding the slightly rugged slopes with swords and shields and spears. Guo Zhiyun led the sword hands alone and stood on the left side of the slope.

There were also hundreds of big archers who led all the arrows of the Tang army along the way to break into the valley at various locations. There was no difference between offense and defense in this encounter, and only killing the enemy first and never stop until death!

The Tubo heavy cavalry who rushed into the valley had their own dominance on the battlefield, and took the lead in dispersing the Tang army's horses, and then stared at the sword and shield hands on the slope and the Modao Formation under the slope.

After hesitating for a moment, the Tubo heavy cavalry did not immediately attack Poling, but instead handed over the direction and let the light cavalry take a first step.

Nearly a hundred Tubo light riders came on horseback, and their target was Mo Daozhe down the slope.

Guo Zhiyun led Mo Daoshi to retreat flexibly to the left wing, causing the side of the Tubo army to be completely exposed to the sight of the battle formation on the slope. Then fifty spearmen rushed down and instantly reaped more than a dozen lives on their flanks. The spearmen of the Tang army also died in this rush.

But with this flanking disturbance, the Tubo rush became scattered. Guo Zhiyun seized the short-lived fighter, and his tongue thunderstorm shouted: "Kill!"

Thirty Mo Dao hand approached the front, and when the sword fell, it was flying with flesh and blood. Although the Tubo army had good armor, it was also vulnerable to the invincible Mo Dao. In an instant, one or twenty people died on the spot.

Guo Zhiyun was strong and killed a thief with one knife. Then he slashed the abdomen of a war horse. Blood and organs flowed down. The Tubo sergeant on the horse's back also fell down. As soon as he struggled to get up, Guo Zhiyun stepped on the face. The spurs directly stepped on the barbarian's bloody and broken his face!

"Retreat, withdraw! The Tang army's Modao is too cruel..."

The Tubo soldiers on the road saw that they suffered heavy losses as soon as they contacted them, and their fighting spirit disappeared for a moment, and they were ready to retreat. However, the sword was out immediately, and there was no way to advance or retreat. The sword shadows and blood lights reflected each other, nearly half of the Tubo light cavalry were killed, and only dozens of people fled back in the back were fleeing.

In just one round of contact, people fell to the ground on the slope. Seeing that the Tang army was trapped in a tragic place, they were still very motivated. The Tubo army in the valley was also a little scared, and for a moment, a strange calm fell into the battlefield.

It was not completely calm, because the Tang army archers distributed among the slopes were still shooting the Tubo army in the valley. They would definitely die when they were shot by the war horses, and the people in the armor were also mixed, which caused the Tubo army to suffer this and had to shrink their formation again and again.

After a brief stalemate, the Tubo heavy cavalry again crossed the crowd and prepared to launch an attack on the slope. Although this terrain was really not conducive to the charge of the heavy cavalry, they really had no other better way to kill the enemy except the heavy cavalry.

Moreover, the Youyi Army of the two countries in this realm are numerous. Although they have forced the Tang army into a desperate situation, if they cannot kill the enemy quickly, once the Tang army in other countries comes with reinforcements, variables will arise.

The heavy armor rushes, and the momentum is naturally extraordinary. The iron hooves dig the ground, which makes the Tang soldiers above the slope feel that the ground is shaken, making people almost think of pulling their feet and flying. Only by the constraints of the battle formation and the left and right comrades relying on each other, can they feel a little more at ease.

"Mo Dao is here, and the thieves have never crossed this realm!"

Guo Zhiyun roared again, and stood on the slope under the powerful pressure of the Tubo heavy cavalry. In front of the heavy cavalry with both men and horses, even if Mo Dao hand was directly at his edge, it was no different from killing his life. However, if the enemy heavy cavalry cannot be restrained, once it attacks the battle formation intact, the battle formation will collapse and will fall into the siege of the Tubo army.

Thirty Mo Dao's hands were ordered to do so. They no longer slashed the sword, but instead slashed the sword straight in front of them, and used their flesh and blood to set up a blood barrier with the steel knife in their hands. They stepped out in one step, without asking about life and death. Only with this heroic spirit, they would inspire the comrades on the slope to fight bravely and death!

Bang!

When the front Tubo heavy cavalry hit a Mo Dao Hand, the Mo Dao Hand, who was carrying heavy armor, was knocked away directly, and he had no idea of ​​life and death.

The Tubo heavy cavalry with a soldier and armor continued to rush forward according to inertia, but the sharp Mo knife was deeply embedded in the soldier and vest. After rushing out a distance of nearly two meters, it suddenly fell to the ground and dragged out nearly half a meter of deep marks on the ground against the mountain, which shows how fast the rush is!

Facts have proved that even the Mo Dao Hand, who was carrying a sperm armor and holding a sharp blade, was also fragile when the heavy cavalry charged forward. As the Tubo heavy cavalry rushed past, no one of the thirty Mo Dao Hands, including Guo Zhiyun, stood up, and the great force directly knocked the person away. The armor was covered with blood foam after the armor fell to the ground.

The Tubo heavy cavalry also paid a heavy price for this. More than 20 heavy cavalrymen, including men and horses, lost their combat effectiveness, and almost half of them.

This is not the most serious. Seeing that the generals personally resisted the enemy, they were not aware of their life and death, the Tang soldiers on the slope were also full of eyes, and they all roared and swooped down the slope, directly entering the Tubo heavy cavalry battle formation.

Without enough rushing, the heavy cavalry was just iron cans on the battlefield. The remaining thirty Tubo heavy cavalry were stopped and could not evacuate the battlefield in time. They could only be forced to tremble with the Tang army soldiers who were fearless.

Although the Tubo heavy cavalry still had the advantage of being armed with horses and almost as brave as one to ten, the Tang army's armor was equally excellent. When the two sides fought here, more than 30 Tubo heavy cavalry could not be used at all. Moreover, the man and vests were too heavy, and the consumption was doubled in time. Although they each killed many Tang army's armored soldiers, they gradually suffered casualties.

"Regain your armor and you must not be plundered by the Tang army!"

Seeing this scene, the foreign generals who commanded this foreign army were also panicked. Tang Jun You Yi was braver than he imagined. He was still fighting to death at this point.

At present, what he was most concerned about was not the life and death of heavy cavalry, but once those men and horse armor were destroyed by the Tang army, even if the Tang army was wiped out in this battle, it would be more than worth the loss. Therefore, he quickly ordered the troops to charge, not distinguish between the enemy and us, and give priority to regaining those men and horse armor.

However, at this moment, a sharp horn sounded again outside the valley, which meant that Tang Jun Youyi had discovered that the battle here was fighting and was quickly supporting this.

"Here, reinforcements are coming! Leave this bandit army, seize the armor and the war horses, if we don't make any contributions in this battle, how can we make a contribution?"

Guo Zhiyun, who was knocked away, was in a state of worry at this moment. His breastplate had even been hit so hard that he could penetrate his ribs and abdomen. His mind was even more drowsy. He just lie down and waited to die. But after hearing the horn of reinforcements, his thoughts suddenly became clear and he shouted loudly regardless of his injuries.

"The captain is still alive! Kill the enemy, kill the enemy!"

When he heard Guo Zhiyun's orders again, many Tang soldiers cried with joy, and reinforcements were about to arrive, and their fighting spirit was even more intense, and they showed more courage in fighting and killing.

At this time, the Tubo generals were in a dilemma. Strictly speaking, their troops suffered not much losses, but the most important heavy cavalry completely lost their combat effectiveness in the Tang army's fearless refusal to kill. The Tang army's supporters on the periphery were unknown. If they continued to fight and wipe out the Tang army along this way, they would be the ones who were surrounded next.
To be continued...
