Chapter 609 Iron Harrier

Chai Shao drew his sword and issued an order to attack the entire army. His slogan was very domineering, and he destroyed the food in the court.

Kill these 60,000 Tuyuhun Army and have breakfast.

50,000 to 60,000, the number is still slightly weak. It should be said that there is no advantage to fight a Tuyuhun camp, but for the famous Tang generals like Chai Shao, fighting five one is a bit difficult. One is a fight of three one is called evenly matched. If it is one to two, it is called bullying the barbarians.

Now it is almost one-on-one. This is already a strong bully of the weak and cannot win. So, go home and take your children. Are you still worthy of leading troops to fight?

Even though the army was not all Guanlong Mansion soldiers at this time, but were filled with a large number of vassals, these vassals had strong combat power, and they were completely adapted to the command and combat system of the Tang army.

In Chai Shao's view, although the Qiang and Barbarians commanded by the Tang army are still Qiang and Barbarians, their combat effectiveness has been greatly improved exponentially.

Countless soldiers surrounded the camp of Tianzhu King from all directions, and used the most powerful move of the Tang army, covering the attack with saturated firepower, and attacking the enemy camp with dense cluster shooting, making the Tuyuhun people in the camp unable to raise their heads at all. Then the light cavalry rushed and rushed under the cover of firepower.

More infantrymen also rode horses behind to charge, keeping the distance as close as possible and not giving enemy archers a chance to counterattack.

Fight close combat, fight hand-to-hand combat.

As the sky became brighter, the Tang army's offensive became more and more fierce.

Tuyuhun was surrounded by all sides at this time, but he had to withstand the violent impact of seven thousand Tang troops like tigers going down the mountain. Lao Cheng was fighting hard at this time. No matter what fences or archers you are, the cavalry and horses in front were all covered with armor, and the knights were even wearing two armors, the armed ones were like iron men, and then they had to hang a shield on their arms and a pole with their right hand.

Lao Cheng even took the lead and tied himself and his mount together with an iron chain belt to ensure that even if he was shot to death during the impact, he would not be dismissed. He would be allowed to carry the war horses and continue to rush down the mountain to open the road.

Eight hundred such knights were armed.

Then there were 1,200 temporary modified heavy-armored infantry wearing double-layer armor and holding large shields behind them, and then among the remaining people, 1,000 light cavalry and 5,000 archers.

"rush!"

Lao Cheng took the lead, and on the narrow path, two horses were running together, and the iron armor was connected.

With countless feather arrows, they rushed forward regardless of the consequences.

Behind, five thousand archers kept firing their bows and shooting arrows, moving forward while shooting.

Facing the pinnacles, fences, trenches, and eight hundred temporary heavy-armed cavalry rushed over, and war horses kept falling down, and the knights locked the war horses, and the horses would die.

If a person dies and a horse does not die, the war horse will continue to rush forward with his companions.

The horse spear was broken, and Cheng Yaojin changed to a steel whip and smashed it. He didn't know how many Tianling covers were smashed. The steel whip was also taken away. Old Cheng immediately grabbed a long-handled axe from a Qiang man. The man used this axe to chop Lao Cheng and chopped him with an axe. Fortunately, the horse was also tied with thick armor.

He snatched the long-handled heavy axe and roared left and right. The rough long-handled iron axe was quite good. With an axe, the Tuyuhun man who had taken the axe was over and went to heaven. With another axe, he stabbed him in the butt and opened the head.

The war horses were wearing thick armor and rushing forward with bows and arrows and spears under inertia, but the trench fences in front of them resisted horses. There were more and more spears and axes, and the temporary heavy riders ran slower and slower, and more and more fell.

Lao Cheng had his own soldiers who fought to protect him, but he was also covered in scars. Fortunately, his body was thick and he had not yet suffered fatal injuries. However, blood was flowing and his whole body was red. He couldn't tell whether it was his own or the enemy's.

The eight hundred iron cavalry soon disappeared from the wild horses. They used their lives to kill a hole. After 1,200 temporary heavy infantrymen in thick armor filled in, and struggled to tear out a bigger hole.

The light cavalry finally went down the mountain and rushed into the enemy camp.

Many of the five thousand people behind had already contributed their armor to add defense to the soldiers in front. They only put on an iron helmet, then pulled the bow and pulled the arrow, shooting one arrow at a time.

Outside, under the command of Chai Shao, 50,000 Tang troops and their vassals were also constantly advancing inward, tearing apart one defense after another, and the Tianzhu tribe had to draw more troops to strengthen defense.

Cheng Yaojin finally felt that the pressure had been reduced a lot.

Step by step, every step forward, there will be corpses covered with blood flowing all over the ground.

The seven thousand Tang troops on the mountain were filled with hundreds of casualties every moment.

Finally, the front was empty, and Lao Cheng was confused and found that there was no enemy in front of him.

They rushed through the defense line at the foot of the mountain and looked forward. Not far away, the Tang flag was flying, and countless Tang troops and vassal Qiang cavalry attacked all the way.

After nearly half of the casualties, Lao Cheng could finally breathe a breath. The Tianzhu tribe was not that strong, and they still didn't hold on for too long.

One hour after the war started, the old brothers, Lao Cheng and Liu Lancheng, finally met again in the camp of the Tianzhu tribe. When the old brothers met, they felt like they were different from each other.

"Old Liu, are you still alive?"

Liu Lancheng patted Lao Cheng, "You are not dead yet. How could I die? Why are you so many arrows inserted into your body? Are you pretending to be a hedgehog?"

"Pretending to be your mother, I'm being shot."

"Can you still fight?" Old Liu asked.

"Can you still fight?" Lao Cheng was dissatisfied.

"Then we two will continue to go side by side and chop them." Old Liu swung the sword in his hand, revealing a cold light. Old Cheng shook the axe in his hand, feeling his hands trembling, but he pretended to be calm and refused to show his timidity.

"kill."

Both brothers were covered in blood and covered in scars, but they both laughed hard while slashing wildly with swords and axes, like two madmen.

On the other hand, Xue Wanchen's brothers led the light cavalry with only about 500 left, and began to accelerate and rush. The two brothers gritted their teeth and shot while urging, venting their suppressed dissatisfaction.

At noon, after more than two hours of fierce battle, the 60,000 Tianzhu Wangjun completely collapsed under the Tang army's encirclement and the center of the flowering attack. They had not waited for reinforcements at the foot of Tianzhu Wangshan. At the foot of the mountain, which was only about twenty miles away, the 40,000 Tianzhu troops in Xidatan and Fu Yun's 130,000 newly defeated soldiers were never revealed.

The Tianzhu Army, which was fighting alone, became more and more desperate as the battle fought. However, the Tang army always deliberately shouted various slogans. Sometimes Fu Yun was captured, and sometimes Tianzhu King ran away.

Waiting around, everyone collapsed in the end. The Tang army fought harder and fiercer, while the more they fought, the more they became more and more panicked.

He wanted to retreat to the mountain, but found that Chai Shao was sitting at the intersection and actually set up several camp bars, putting on many horses and digging many pits. Many of the camp bars and horses were obviously dragged over after breaking through the camp bars of Tuyuhun people.

Many of the people who dug the pit were even captured Tianzhu soldiers on the battlefield who were driven here and threatened to dig trenches with bows and arrows.

The sky was filled with arrows, and the Tianzhu Army, who was trying to rush under the stage again and again, fell to the trenches and fences. The Tianzhu Army finally despaired and no longer thought about suddenly going down the beach platform to join the other two armies. Instead, they began to flee in all directions, hoping to find a chance to escape, by then they had completely failed.

The Tang cavalry began to divide and encircle and annihilate them.

More Tang army infantry and some vassals formed dense military formations on the beach platform, intercepted them with spears and shot them with crossbows, driving them to the side near the Yellow River, and eventually they were forced to the dead corner.

It is hard to fly if you have wings.

After rows of Tianzhu tribes were shot down, Chai Shaocai finally rode his horse to surrender.

Give up your arms and kneel down to avoid death.

The desperate Tianzhu troops began to surrender together.

Seeing that tens of thousands of Tianzhu soldiers finally began to surrender one after another, gave up resistance and broke through, Chai Shao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Quickly, transfer Wang Xiaojie, Liu Shenli, Xue Wanche, Xue Wanjun, Cheng Yaojin, Liu Lancheng and other generals, immediately lead the army down the mountain and tell them that the mountain will soon be unable to defend."

The King of Tianzhu at the foot of the mountain had thought of saving the mountain, but they were blocked in Xidatan and could not get through.

When camping, the Xidatan area was wide and wide, and it was close to the river. It was easy to camp and feed horses and drink water. As a result, when the Tang army attacked, they were divided into two halves. The most fatal thing was that the intersection on the mountain was narrow and the width was only a few dozen feet.

Gao Zhensheng led 2,000 cavalry to block the intersection at the first time. The 40,000 soldiers of the King of Tianzhu were unable to go up the mountain to reinforce the 60,000 troops in the headquarters, nor could they cross the bridge to Dongdatan to meet with Fu Yun.

Although the King of Tianzhu immediately sent troops to fight over and tried to seize this important passage, Gao Zhensheng fought back to death, using a spear, shield and a horse to block the intersection dozens of feet, and used a strong bow and crossbow to kill the waves of cavalry.

After Liu Rengui rushed down from the mountain to reinforce, Gao Zhensheng was already under much pressure.

The army archer on the right side of the Three Thousand Long stood in the back row and outputted with all his strength. Relying on the addition of the narrow terrain, the Tianzhu King was in great pain.

There is a high-slope platform to the north and the Yellow River to the right. It is just a narrow passage dozens of feet wide. It was blocked by the Tang army. Although the light cavalry of the Tianzhu tribe is amazing, it cannot fly over.

No matter how powerful the light cavalry is, he will die if he rushes to such a hole.

One wave of rushing, one wave of rushing.

Both sides fought for a whole morning.

The final result was that more than half of Gao Zhensheng and Liu Rengui's five thousand troops died, and King Tianzhu even left five or six thousand corpses there, a real battlefield meat grinder.

The King of Tianzhu must save the mountain and break through this hole. Gao Zhensheng and Liu Rengui also understood the importance of this hole and defended it without retreating.

When the sound was getting weaker and weaker when it hit the mountain, the King of Tianzhu was desperate.

The king in his camp was also desperate.

They all knew that the 60,000 Tianzhu troops on the mountain were probably in danger, and once these 60,000 people were gone, the tens of thousands of Tang troops on the mountain would be killed.
