Qin Lang was in charge of the central army. He heard the light cavalry of the vanguard You Yi's army coming to report that the Tubo people were logging wood, pushing stones, digging trenches and blocking the valley roads. It was difficult for the Tang army to advance. He immediately asked someone to take a map to watch. After seeing it clearly, he couldn't help but ask who the foreign general was on the opposite side.

"This monk Guomiqin is cruel. Look at the blocking position he chose, which is exactly where the three soldiers of our Jiannan Army gathered. Whether it is the Ningyuan Army and Jingbian Army on the left, the Baoning Army on the right, the Pingqiang Army and Tianbao Army on the right, the Youyi Army on the middle, the two vanguards of the Bai Army, plus the Zhongwu Army and the Beiwei Army on the central army, our nine armies will eventually gather at the valley entrance on the banks of the Maiwa River."

Only 30,000 people blocked this entrance, but they guarded the places where the Tang army must pass. If they did not open up here, they could not continue to pursue the Tubo army, and they could not rush to Hequ to encircle and annihilate the Tubo army with the Qiang tribe.

"It seems that the Qiang's figure has been leaked."

"These Qiang people are really not successful enough, but have enough failure." The Zhongwu Army envoy Cun said filially.

"Actually, it's nothing. It's unlikely that 100,000 cavalry will completely hide it. After all, Tubo has already gone here, so he must send a scout to open the way. It's impossible to hide it. It's already very good to hide it until now. After all, no matter what strategy is used, he will always meet in the end."

Qin Lang was more open-minded. In fact, even if Tubo discovered it now, it would be too late.

Although this monk Guomiqin is skilled in using military force and fast speed, how can he stop the Tang army with only about 30,000 troops?

You should know that this time, the Nine Army that left Songzhou, plus the Unite Camp and the foreign troops, apart from the left-behind guards, were still 80,000. One warrior and two foreign soldiers were used to calculate, and the regular elite Tang army was more than 25,000. With so many elite troops, let alone a temporary field camp, even a strong city, Qin Lang was sure to take it.

"Three days are too long, at most one day, you have to open it."

"The order is sent to each army to speed up and rush to the Maiwa River Valley. After each unit arrives, there is no need to rest. It immediately launches an attack on the blocking army behind the Tubo Palace, making it difficult for them to catch up. They will fight until they collapse and have not been broken for more than a day. Only the generals will ask!"

So, Qin Lang's personal soldiers and knights came out, galloping and rushing to pass on the commander of the Jiedu to the army. The generals of the army did not care about rest or even the formation. They advanced at full speed and fought for the first time when they robbed the cavalry first, infantry followed by baggage, etc.

First come first fight, there is no need to wait for the one behind, and there is no need to maintain formation on the road. Anyway, you are not afraid of attacks, and the enemy situation is already clear.

The nine armies and eighty thousand troops were divided into three groups and advanced in unison toward the Quwa River Valley.

The two armies of You Yi and Tabai had already rested for a night, so after receiving the order, they naturally launched an offensive immediately. Qiu Xinggong, who had always been cruel, even ordered the attack without regard to death and injury. Xishan Qiang was good at the mountains, so they were the front drive, and Tang army soldiers held crossbows and then provided long-range fire support.

The valley was narrow, and there were also fallen trees, leaves, rocks and trenches everywhere. However, when the Tang army began to advance desperately, it still relied on its powerful firepower advantage to quickly retreat the crossbowmen in Tubo.

The Tang army kept pushing forward, and then the people behind stopped cleaning the valley road and followed.

In the valley, bows and arrows flew randomly, shouting and killing the sky. When both sides began to fight in a short-term battle and fighting in the valley, it was obvious that the weakness of the Tubo people was completely revealed. First, the troops were insufficient, and second, the equipment was not strong. Moreover, the Tang army far surpassed the Tubo army in terms of momentum. So after only half a day, Qiu Xinggong and Yu Guni did not even wait for the troops to arrive later, they opened up the valley that was originally planned to be slowly advanced and cleared directly to the entrance of the valley.

Outside the valley, on the vast Quwa River Valley Beach, Monk Guomiqin urged the Tubo army and civilians to dig out three trenches and erected two walls. They were still deepening and widening the trenches, strengthening and raising the village walls, and even the horse-rejecting walls became more and more.

The defeated Tubo soldiers who retreated from the valley retreated into the camp along the plank roads on the trench.

The Tubo defenders pulled the pallet on the trench, which made the pursuing You Yitabai army helpless.

Qiu Xinggong arrived and saw the fortifications of the Tubo people. He just sneered a few times, then called the crossbowman to put down the crossbow arrows along the trench to stabilize the entrance of the valley. All the Tubo soldiers approaching were shot and killed, and the troops behind him came out of the valley, leaving some behind to start to let go of their hands and feet to clear the valley road.

"Log, dig the soil!"

It is not only the Tubo people who can cut wood and dig soil. The wood is ready-made. There are trees in the valley that were cut down and blocked the road by the Tubo people. This time, the branches were cut off and transported out. This time, it could not only clear the valley, but also use these trees to simply process them into pallets for trenches.

Monk Guomiqin looked here quietly in the camp, but did not send troops to fight. Instead, he just ordered to continue digging a new trench in the camp and establishing a wall of the grid. He obviously planned to defend the ground to defend against the attack.

By dusk, You Yitabai's two vanguard troops had basically cleared the valley road, and under the cover of crossbowmen, they took down the first trench outside the Tubo camp, approaching the second trench and the horse-repellent wall.

The two sides began to shoot bows and arrows, and fought fiercely.

At this time, the five armies from both sides, tens of thousands of troops, began to arrive first, and the Tubo people suddenly faced attacks from both sides, making it even more difficult to defend.

The temporary camp was so big, with not much trenches, wooden fences, and horse-receiving horses. It was better to only face You Yitabai’s two vanguards, Light Cavalry, but they were better than maneuvering, and they were weaker in attacking.

But when the troops from both sides arrived from both sides, the situation began to be different.

The number of Tang troops continued to increase, and the Tubo people soon lost all the fortifications outside the camp. They were still barely supporting them by relying on the wall to resist horses, but the Tang army had already begun to gather the infantry that had just arrived.

Those large crossbow beds were also being assembled, and even small catapults were available.

Not to mention that the heavy infantrymen were wearing heavy iron armor with the help of the light infantrymen, arming their teeth. Those huge long cards, the long iron spear, the stair spear, the cold sword, and the heavy axe all showed their extremely ferocious attack ability.

Those simple Tubo village walls are obviously difficult to hold on under the impact of their group.

The Tubo people looked desperately at the Tang army gathered from three sides like ants, and many Qiang soldiers following the Tang army, and the local brave men united.

"Why did the Tangren come so quickly?"

Monk Guo Miqin tried his best. He thought he could block the Tang people for more than three days, or even seven or eight days, but who would have thought that it would be just one day, and even this day had not passed yet.

As the horn whirred, the Tang army's crossbowmen took the lead in showing their power.

Countless crossbows shot towards the camp, and the rain of arrows blocked the light of the sky. The sky above the camp was darkened, and then there was an extremely sharp roar.

The rain of arrows and crossbows did not stop, and the arrows were pouring down like money. Then, with the sound of war drums, the infantry of the Tang army began to advance neatly.

They held large shields, wore iron armor, and even shouted battle rosters to advance.

The Tubo village wall seemed extremely fragile and thin in their battle roster. The Tubo soldiers could not even stand up on the village wall and could not stand up. Under the dense rain of arrows, they could only squat on the ground with their shields and curled up into a ball.

Once they stand up and try to block the approaching infantry, they will often be shot and killed by the Tang people's crossbow before they can shoot two arrows.

When blocking roads and building villages, 20,000 mediocre people still have a lot of effect, but in this kind of situation, they have no effect.

They only have simple spears and Uduo in their hands.

Uduo is originally something that ordinary people use to drive away cattle and sheep when they grazed. They twisted yaks into thick lines and braided them into hair braids. Then make a ring on the upper end of the braid. When using it, put the ring on your fingers and braid a palm-sized black ladder on the other end to place stones or soil blocks. When trying to drive cattle and sheep, pinch the ends of the Uduo with your hands, put stones or soil blocks in the black ladder, lift a whip and swing it, and then aim at the target and release one end, which can hit a hundred steps away.

When ordinary people use Udou for a long time when grazing, they can often hit every shot. Even if they are used on the battlefield, it is a cheap, convenient and effective weapon. If you put hard stones on the enemy, you will be injured at the least and die at the worst.

But the problem is that these mediocre people who lack armor and helmets can't even get up the village walls. Under the cover of such dense and sharp crossbows, they just give it up.

Under the cover of archers, the Tang army infantry held large shields and spears, paved trenches with wooden boards, cut down a wall of blocking horses, and finally arrived in front of the camp.

He threw out the hook rope and hooked the wooden fence to pull it, swung the big knife and axe and slashed it hard, and even carried the wood to hit it.

At this time, the Tubo army did not care about casualties, and tried hard to defend and shot arrows at the infantry in front of the village wall. However, the Tang army had a stronger fighting will, and their defenses were good, so the casualties were not too large.

In less than half an hour, the simple wooden fence of the Tubo people was pulled down for several consecutive periods, and infantrymen flocked in, like chopping melons and vegetables.

The cavalry who had gathered on standby in the back were like fishy cats. Under the guidance of the military flag, their iron hooves were like thunder, and they rushed towards the collapsed gap.

Monk Guomiqin held a long sword, his eyes were red and his hair was crazy, and he led his subordinates to block the left and right, but in the end he could not support him. More and more Tubo soldiers were cut down by the Tang army, and there were more and more gaps in the camp, which eventually lost their function because there were too many Tang army entering.

On the battlefield for several miles, they were killed into a group.

At this time, the Tang army was still driving from the three valley roads continuously. As soon as they left the valley, they immediately rushed to the battlefield.

It's like Mount Tai is pressing down on the top.

The Tubo people were completely desperate. Under the leadership of the powerful general Monk Guomiqin, they fought tenaciously until dusk, and were completely defeated.

Next, it was the time for the Tang army to kill. The Tubo army had already begun to flee in all directions. The Tang army lit a torch to chase the Tubo army.

The moon was dark, the wind was high, and the stars were sparse, but it was hidden. The Tang army was red in its eyes and did not yell at all to withdraw its troops. They chased them all the way, chasing them relentlessly.

The moon was in the sky, and Qin Lang, the commander of the entire army, rushed to the battlefield under the escort of Beiwei and Zhongwu. At this time, the battlefield was broken and bloody, but Tubo had already been defeated and fled, and the Tang army was still pursuing.

Qin Lang conquered the army behind the Tubo Palace within one day, and the generals did it.
