Chapter 52: Avalanche (Part 2)
Asan Gu and Zheyan soon learned more than what they said about important things.
"Shiduo is more than the general. Are you talking about raiding the Tang army in the valley at night?"
Zheyan's face changed slightly.
"The mountain road is narrow and only a few people can pass side by side. Where our army is afraid it will be difficult to unfold."
"It's not difficult for us to unfold, so is it not difficult for the enemy? Are those Tang people all gods?"
Siddouyu's face was cold: "Yes, they were blocked by us in the snow valley, but do you know how much food and supplies they have? Do you know how long they can last? I don't know, maybe you can tell me."
"this……"
"Before I came, I received the latest military newspaper. The reinforcements from the Tang Dynasty were almost at Wuwei. Do you know what this means?"
Xi Duoyu glanced at the generals in the account: "It means that if we cannot end the battle here as soon as possible, General Qinling will not only face the original more than 100,000 Datang troops, but also face more than 100,000 Tang reinforcements.
By that time, even the General Lun Qinling would face great pressure.
Now we can siege the main force of the Tang army without any scruples because the general is defending the defense line for us."
His words came to an abrupt end here, but all the generals in the tent could hear an anxiety and anger in his voice.
As a general in the field, the information they possess is not something that middle-level generals like Zheyan and Asan Gu can know.
This means that the pressure he will bear will be even more terrifying.
"There are more than the generals. How long will the Tang reinforcements arrive?"
"According to military information, there are still twenty days left."
Asan Gu's expression relaxed: "Then we have two more..."
"No."
Zheyan interrupted him in one go.
His brows were twisted tightly, as if a knot that could not be untied: "The information shows that twenty days are displayed, but it will take seven or eight days to come from Wuwei. We lead our army to reinforce us, and there are at least ten days on the way. By this calculation, we have no time anymore."
After this sentence, the temperature in the tent suddenly became cold again.
Everyone feels their hearts sinking.
I feel something is wrong.
It clearly took the initiative and surrounded the main force of the Tang army in Xuegu, but according to the latest information, Tubo was more passive.
Xi Duoyu looked around and said in a deep voice: "Tonight, we will have a battle with the Tang army. There are three goals. The first is to find out how much strength this Tang army has and how much food and grass this group of Tang army has, so that we can judge their potential, how many manpowers and how many time will it take to completely eliminate them."
"Not bad!" Zhe Yan was excited and said, "If the Tang army no longer had the strength, we don't need to leave all the troops here. We only use one to stare at the valley entrance. The rest can start immediately to reinforce the General Lun Qinling."
Xiduoyu nodded slightly, stretched out two fingers and said, "Second, Gong Ren's revenge must be avenged... My brother Lu Qinling, only such a son... I, including you, must avenge Gong Ren to give him an explanation."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the tent sank down again.
Lun Qinling originally had two sons, the eldest son Mo Lunzun, and the second son Gong Ren.
But when his eldest son followed him to fight against Xiangxiong in his early years, he was attacked by strange people around the king of Xiangxiong.
At that time, the Yiren was going to assassinate Lun Qinling, but Mo Lunzun stepped forward to block a fatal blow for his father.
He died from this.
In grief, after Lun Qinling defeated Xiangxiong, he ordered the city to be massacred for three days without a knife seal.
To this day, no one dares to mention this past event in front of Lun Qinling.
It is precisely because Lun Qinling only has Gong Ren, one son.
He attaches great importance to it, and has been tempering all kinds of skills, always with his soldiers, starting from a small soldier, and gradually becoming a general.
It can be said that I hope to have high hopes.
It can also be said that it is the only successor of the Lunqinling branch.
Some people even say that after Lu Dongzan retired, the next prime minister must be Lu Qinling.
After Qinling, it was Gong Ren.
But now, it's all gone.
As for Qinling himself, although he is middle-aged, he...
A few years ago, when attacking Tuyuhun and passing through the Snow Peak of Bayankala Mountain, something strange happened there.
The upper class nobles kept silent about this matter, but all kinds of bizarre rumors spread.
One of the most shocking ones is that when he was captured in the Daxue Mountains, he was shot from the mountain on the way to capture the holy land of our religion.
At that time, the great prime minister Lu Dongzan and Lun Qinling were under the banner. After that arrow, Daxun was seriously injured, while Lun Qinling was injured in his thigh.
Although the two of them remained silent afterwards, since then, Da Xiang's body has been getting worse.
And Qinling never accepted any women again...
I only dare to spread this kind of thing quietly in private, and no one dares to make a statement.
But looking at Qinling's condition in recent years, he is indeed far from women.
I'm afraid that after Gong Ren, he will not accept women again.
The offspring will naturally be gone.
It's the last.
There were even generals in the account who couldn't help but think of another message.
It is said that the archers used a giant bow.
The Tang general who shot Gong Ren today also used a giant bow.
Is there any connection between this?
If so.
The Gar family's hatred with this person is afraid that they will not be able to clean up all the snow in Bayankala and the water in Wuhai.
“As for the third point.”
Xi Duoyu glanced at the people in the account and pulled everyone's attention back to him.
"That is that we cannot let these Tang people rest."
Xiduoyu said: "After all, we have a lot of people, we can afford to fight in turn, so that the Tang people in the snow valley cannot rest, and it is best to be exhausted to death. If one more Tang people die, we can also free up our hands as soon as possible to help Lun Qinling defend the defense line."
"The general is right, I'll accept it."
"We are willing to obey Xidu than the general's order."
Everyone whispered loudly.
"Since no one has any objections, let's discuss how to use troops, which one will lead, and how to take turns to fight."
Xi Duoyu looked around and said, "I'm going to hide it from you, on the other side of the Snow Valley, our troops will continue to fight tonight to harass the Tang army."
After hearing more words, everyone was excited and said happily: "It's better, it's better than the general's foresight."
...
Snowy valley mouth.
Ashi's real look at the wall that sealed the valley entrance.
His eyes were cold and dark.
His eyes had no focal length, and he passed the low wall that was half-man high that had been piled up with stones and bones, and he looked nowhere.
The Turkic guards beside him said to him with some concern: "General, the general manager will let you have a good rest tonight."
"Can I sleep?"
Ashin's voice was really hoarse.
The guard swallowed his saliva and did not dare to answer.
He heard an extremely suppressed anger from Ashin's real voice.
The angry object must not be the personal guard.
But if the personal guards are not tactful, they may not be sure.
Ashin has really been talking about it on his own.
His voice was low and full of pain.
"I can't sleep. As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw Zhao Hu'er in front of me. In addition to Zhao Hu'er, there were also Ashinaqin, Mo Yun, Zhao Yiru and others' faces."
What he said was the soldiers from the scout camp and the brothers of the Turkic tribe.
In order to steal Zhao Hu'er's body, in today's battle, Ashinaqin and the others have fallen on the road forever.
I can never go back to Chang'an.
I can't go back to the grassland.
Ashina was really down and silent. After a long time, she reached out and hit her heart a few times.
"In addition to the Turkic brothers, there are also my cavalry battalion, more than 200 brothers, they are all staying in this strange land, and... Now more than 10,000 people in the army are trapped in this desperate situation in the Snow Valley, all because of my fault."
"General..."
The personal guards searched their stomachs and couldn't find any words to persuade them.
He could only smile bitterly and said, "We are in the army, and there will always be one day when we miss the dead brothers. If one day we die, I wonder who will remember it."
"Your mother, please say less."
A bearded rider next to him pushed him and scolded, "Can you speak?"
"Well……"
The guard covered his mouth with an embarrassment.
This is his last expression in the world.
call out!
A cold arrow suddenly came out of the darkness and hit his neck with an arrow.
The expression of the guard instantly solidified, and his body fell heavily with the torch in his hand.
puff!
"Enemy attack!!"
In the darkness, a harsh roar came.
The originally calm Tang army camp was instantly alarmed.
There was chaos.
The Tubo people outside the valley roared muffled, as if they were wondering that the man who used arrows had left a living mouth.
Taking advantage of the chaos of the Tang army in the valley, the Tubo people hid in the darkness, like a tide coming.
This night is destined to be unable to sleep.
It was dawn.
The eagle flies in the sky.
The wind is cold.
There is a mess on both sides of the snow valley.
Looking down from a high place, you can see that there are traces of the war at both ends of the Snow Valley.
There are corpses, broken arrows, and scattered weapons.
There are dead war horses.
There are also near-death and wounded people, and the wail of despair.
Last night, there were several consecutive competitions at the entrances of the valley on both sides.
The Tubo people once attacked the valley.
Finally, Cui Qi led Mo Dao Camp and slashed over in an array.
Only then did the Tubo people be killed and retreated.
Before Modao was dispatched, the Tang army organized several counterattacks, but were all defeated by the Tubo people.
It can be seen that the fierceness of the Tubo people last night.
But in the end, under the Modao, these fierce Tubo people were also killed to the point of being scared.
After all, the Tubo people's armor could not stop the Tang Dynasty's sword.
Su Dawei took An Wensheng and Xue Rengui to inspect the two valley entrances.
The generals' faces were very ugly.
"A lot of people lost their hands last night."
"It seems that we will not give up if we don't kill these evil thieves."
"Ami, today I'm afraid I'll be out of food."
"Last night, I saw that all battalions had roasted jerky with beef and horse meat, so they should be able to support it."
"People can support it, but our war horses can't hold on."
Xue Rengui sighed and reached out to pat the snow-white war horse under him.
I only ate very little beans last night.
Chapter completed!
