Chapter 295

Just as the spring ploughing in Lanzhou was in full swing, there were many successful reports in the south of Tang Dynasty. Hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of official affairs and the general manager of dangmidao March, led the troops to retreat to Songzhou. It's not easy to kill the Tubo people by the way of cunning war. The front of the army was frustrated, and songganzanbu withdrew in a hurry, and Songzhou recovered. Hou Junji waved his troops to cover up the dead, and Songzan Ganbu was defeated, leaving thousands of corpses to return to the plateau.

Since a few years ago, the Tang Dynasty has not launched a foreign war. The victory of the battle of Songzhou inspired the whole Tang Dynasty.

However, when Songzanganbu led 200000 troops to invade, the plundered territory of Tuyuhun and the Qiang tribe who surrendered in fear did not return. It seems that it has not achieved the expected goal just to recover a pine state.

Most of the lost territory of Tuyuhun was near dafichuan and Shancheng.

The news of Songzhou victory came, and the soldiers at the front line were boiling with enthusiasm and could not sit still. Qin mubai's pressure is coming again.

At this time, spring ploughing was at a critical juncture, and all kinds of seeds, farm tools and cattle were in place one after another. But the front-line officers and men are really holding back too much. Seeing the brothers' troops make contributions, they have to stare at each other. They have to pretend to be blind when they watch the Tibetan riders in dafichuan wandering around every day. It's like letting a group of wolves vegetarian in the vegetable garden. But I was looking at a fat sheep outside the vegetable garden.

Not surprisingly, Xue Wanjun came to fight!

This time, he was more polite. Instead of gathering a group of generals as he did last time, he went directly to the governor's office to force the palace. Instead, he wrote a letter of invitation and sent people to worship Qin Shubao.

Qin mubai was in the governor's mansion when he received the invitation, and his father and son summed it up. Qin Shubao thinks. It's not the best way to suppress the morale of the soldiers. Xue Wanjun and others were obviously envious of Hou Junji's achievements. It's better to let them attack properly, activate their muscles, and have a few small battles with the Tubo enemy forces in dafichuan.

Qin mubai thought about it and agreed.

Qin Shubao issued a military order, allowing Xue Wanjun to "fight against Tubo three times". But there are three restrictions: first, the number of troops to be dispatched at a time should not exceed 3000, the ration should not exceed 10 days, and the depth should not exceed 100 li. It's like limiting the scale of the fight.

Xue Wanjun was a little upset when he received the military order, but he made do with it, which was better than the one who could not keep it strictly.

At the moment, he reorganized his troops and mobilized 3000 elite cavalry out of the city to make a quick attack on the nearest Tibetan army. For several months, the Tubo people saw that the Tang army was closed to farming and was unprepared. Faced with the sudden attack of Xue Wanjun, the vanguard of the fierce general, they lost hundreds of corpses and fled back in a hurry.

Xue Wanjun won the first world war with high morale and fighting spirit. Without stopping, he pursued dafichuan for tens of miles while winning. Along the way, he encountered several groups of Tubo riders, big and small, and annihilated them.

At this point, the loss of 3000 iron cavalry was very small. Every time they killed and broke the army, they would take food from the enemy, and the supply was still sufficient. After the successive victories, Xue Wanjun had forgotten Qin Shubao's military orders, and seemed to dream of repeating Huo Qubing's feat of attacking the enemy and capturing the chieftain. So, he led the three thousand cavalry to the Bank of Qinghai Lake, the hinterland of dafichuan!

Here is the heavy military town with tens of thousands of Tibetan troops!

To say, Xue Wanjun is really a fierce tiger in the battlefield. He is invincible all the way. At this time, in the face of ten times the enemy, he was also fearless and went up. The Tubo people didn't expect that Xue Wanjun was so bold and reckless that he would dare to come "away" with 3000 riders. At first, they still suspected that Xue Wanjun was just an outpost bait, and there was an army ambush behind. After hesitating for a while, the Tubo people were basically only defending themselves, and they didn't fight with them formally.

Later, the Tubo people found out the news. Xue Wanjun really died alone!

This irritates the Tubo people. Their plateau cavalry are not vegetarians!

After repeated challenges, the enemy's barracks were too big to enter. Xue Wanjun was also preparing to withdraw. On that night, the Tubo people suddenly launched a big counterattack. Ten thousand riders came out to kill!

Xue Wanjun is worthy of being a full war general. He does not panic in the night, and does not panic in the attack. He has a neat military appearance and stands up to resist. But after all, they are outnumbered, and they are also tired of their teachers and soldiers, and they are losing. They fought and retreated, retreated. Tubo people also have a stomach of anger, how willing to give up? On the one hand, they besieged Xue Wanjun, and on the other hand, they sent another light cavalry to intercept Xue Wanjun's back road. The situation of encirclement had become a situation, and Xue Wanjun was trapped in a tight encirclement, which became a situation of bitter battle.

It's easy to see that three thousand iron cavalry will be destroyed. Xue Wanjun regretted, so he was on the verge of committing suicide. The left and right lieutenants advised him to fight for his life, and led more than 100 riders to break through the siege and flee back to Shancheng.

Of the 3000 elite cavalry, only a hundred are left, and most of them are injured. The chief General Xue Wanjun had more than ten sores in his body and lost blood. In a coma, dying.

The Tubo people took advantage of the victory to fight back, and the soldiers went straight to Shancheng. Without the chief general, Shancheng was in chaos for a while. Several deputy generals hastily organized troops to defend the city, and the military and civilian people who went out for farming also withdrew in a hurry. Half of them fled into Shancheng, and the other half had to flee into other counties. The Tubo people did nothing but build an iron bucket around Shancheng. They also sent people to plunder, burn, kill, rob, trample on farmland and destroy canals.For a moment, Shancheng is in danger!

When the news reached the governor's office, Qin Shubao broke into a rage: "Xue wanche, it's time to kill!"

"Father Shuai, calm down!" Qin mubai quickly advised, "Xue wanche disobeyed the military order and made a good stand, which resulted in the defeat of the division and the loss of the city. It's really unforgivable. However, the urgent task at the moment is to solve the danger of Shancheng! "

"I'll lead the team to break the thief!" Qin Shubao's eyes narrowed slightly and his murderous spirit burst out, so he ordered his deputy general to take his tiger head and carve a golden spear.

"Father Shuai, wait a minute!" Qin mubai quickly dissuaded him and said, "father Shuai is the leader of the three armies, and can he despise the enemy? At this special time, Lanzhou can not be a day without a master, father Shuai or sitting in the governor's office, right? Let the child go out on behalf of his father and lead the army to put an end to the chaos! "

"You? You've never been in battle, you just talk on paper, that's not right Qin Shubao quickly waved his hand, "you'd better stay in the governor's office to take care of these government affairs and people's livelihood! I'm old, but I'm old. I haven't paid attention to those Tibetan children yet! "

"Father Shuai, think twice!" Qin mubai said bitterly, "Lanzhou lost the first battle. Under the rule of the state and county, there must be a shock, and the morale of the three armed forces will fluctuate. At the moment, father Shuai's first task should be to pacify the army and the people, and put the overall situation first. If father Shuai goes out in person at the moment, even if he wins, he will not be able to revive his military power by striking small with a big blow; if he wins, he will be able to inspire the three armed forces by fighting big with a small one

"There is some truth..." Qin Shubao seems to have been moved. Stroking his long beard, he nodded and said to himself, "if I send an unknown rising star to repel the Tubo people and solve the danger of Shancheng, maybe it's better than if I go out in person - OK! Sanlang, I'll order you to lead Yifu's cavalry. I'll give you another 3000 yuan to Yueqi, which is 5000 yuan in total. Attack in the starry night, gallop to Shancheng, retreat from the enemy

"Yes Qin mubai answered the promise in a loud voice and was about to leave when he received the talisman.

"Wait!" Qin Shubao suddenly stopped him, came forward and said in a low voice: "the battlefield is not a child's play. Be careful with everything!"

"Father Shuai, don't worry." Qin mubai said with a smile, "didn't you come here for the first time? The child inherits his father's golden spear. I haven't seen blood since I started. Only today! "

Qin Shubao gave a happy smile and patted Qin mubai on the shoulder: "it's my son! ——Go

Lanzhou Bingma, half of the cavalry, is the elite of the Tang Dynasty. The army and Yueqi in Yifu are the best among the elite. Five thousand men and horses quickly assembled. Qin mubai put on his horse in full dress. He didn't have to make any vows to boost his morale. He waved his golden spear toward the northwest. Five thousand cavalry galloped out, wrapped up in smoke and dust, and looked at Shancheng.

The war situation is critical. Every minute is a fighter. Shancheng is also a hundred miles away from Lanzhou. There is no problem for the cavalry to rush away. However, the elite cavalry will become the end of the crossbow after the full attack. So Qin mubai pressed down his army horse in the middle of the stream for a little rest. People eat dry food, horses chew grass and drink some water to supplement their physical strength. At the same time, scouts from all walks of life were sent to inquire about the military situation.

Xue Rengui and Yuwen Hongtai come together while chewing the dry wheat cake and reading the map around Shancheng. Squatting beside Qin mubai.

"You two, what's your opinion?" Qin mubai pointed to the map and said.

"I don't understand that. All I know is that I'll fight for a while, and I have to be in the front Yuwen Hongtai said in a straight line.

Qin mubai and Xue Rengui laughed at each other, and they focused on the terrain around Shancheng. Then Xue Rengui said, "young general, the army is very important. Finish this wheat cake. It's time to start. In fact, the Tubo people who took advantage of the victory to besiege the city and make trouble also committed the same military taboo as Xue Wanjun! However, if it is delayed for a long time, it will be quite disadvantageous for our army to let them take Shancheng City, or occupy some villages, hills, valleys and dangerous passes! "

"It makes sense." Qin Mu Bai nodded, "that's why I march so fast and attack in the starry night. At the same time, let Tubo stay in Shancheng for another moment. We also have more losses. Those herdsmen and people who have been burned, killed, looted and abused, as well as farmland and water conservancy that have been trampled and destroyed, it will be difficult for us to rebuild and clean up again. "

"Son of a bitch, these Tibetan vomit people are just like locusts!" Yuwen Hongtai scolded, "fight, fight, fire, step on any field! What a nuisance

"It's their usual trick." Qin Mu Bai frowned and said, "plunder is one of the main purposes of their war. But even if they capture the city, they have no intention of keeping it. The city and farmland can't be moved. As a result, the destruction had to be carried out. They won't let us get what they can't take away. The purpose of destroying these things is nothing more than to fear that we will grow stronger and threaten them. "

"Dog, son of a bitch, insidious!" Yuwen Hongtai spat, "when we go to the plateau, we will tear down their Chuang Tzu, kill their yaks and destroy their fields! Even women, Tubo women are so ugly, they all look like men! "

"Ha ha! Qin mubai and Xue Rengui laughed.

"Rengui, I think so." Qin mubai pondered for a while and said, "although the enemy troops have thousands of cavalry, they have come from a long distance and besieged the city to plunder, and their forces are scattered. Our army is rushing to kill until it is powerful. They will not love fighting. With their usual tactics and the situation in front of them. Most of them will swarm back, not fight to death. Therefore, our military must work hard to win the first battle and kill them! ——Therefore, I decided to let you personally lead the guard of Baiqi and the elite of Yifu to be the vanguard, and let go of your horsepower to rush in. No matter what group of enemies you meet, you just go inside and don't look back. Hong Tai and I are responsible for covering up behind you. Take care of the aftermath for you"Yes! I'll take orders! " Xue Rengui's face was quiet and his fighting spirit rose in his eyes.

"Ah, why don't you let me take the lead?" Yuwen Hongtai is not happy.

"Forget it." Qin Mu Bai said with a smile, "you are a Leng son. If you only care about your own killing ability, you may lose the suizuo behind you. It's one thing to be a kind pioneer and a brave warrior. He knows how to save time

"Well! After all, I don't think I can beat him! " Yuwen Hongtai scolded, "Xue, why do you come to Lanzhou with nothing? If you don't come, it must be mine

"Ha ha!" Xue Rengui laughed, "general Yuwen doesn't have to be angry. Xue will give you the vanguard next time!"

"Don't break your promise Yuwen Hongtai like a child, wide eyed seriously said.

"No more. Go back and get ready. We'll start right away! " Qin Mu white up, put away the map.

The second general answered the promise, went back to straighten up the troops immediately, and immediately marched forward to Shancheng.

Soon after his departure, he met the scouts who would repay his military intelligence. It is said that there is a large group of Tibetan cavalry in the front, who has just plundered a piece of pasture and farmland, and a large number of cattle, sheep and livestock are slowly retreating towards Shancheng.

However, less than 20 miles away from Shancheng, we can almost hear the sound of trumpets and war drums coming from Shancheng.

"Xue Rengui!" Qin mubai gave a big drink.

"The end will be here!" Xue Rengui, who painted halberd on the white horse and silver robe, came out to answer the promise.

"Attack immediately - kill the enemy and make contributions!"

"Yes

Fighting spirit is high!

Xue Rengui leaped over his horse and drank: "all the soldiers, follow me

"Roar!" The elite of the Chinese Army rode more and more. They practiced with Xue Rengui for a long time. They knew that Xue Rengui was invincible. Having him is like having the backbone. Two thousand elite riders let out a deep roar, the horse's hooves soared rapidly, the land trembled, and ran forward angrily.

"Yuwen Hongtai!"

"Yes Yuwen Hongtai roared and flashed out like thunder.

"I'll tell you to lead your troops and follow Xue Rengui to cover up. I will lead the rest of the people, and you around. Each of the three armed forces has its own horn. They should help each other and kill the enemy together. They are only allowed to advance, but not to retreat! Those who disobey the order will be killed! "

"Yes

When Yuwen Hongtai thunders. I like to be in shape. He drove his horse to the front of his cavalry and asked him to hold up the flag of "Yuwen". Then he raised his Phoenix wings and gold-plated bell and yelled: "it's a man, come with me! Cut off your head

"Kill --" a group of iron riders follow Yuwen Hongtai, the black iron Warcraft, and follow Xue Rengui to kill.

"All officers and men - Attack!" Qin mubai gave a deep drink, lifted up the Iron Tiger's head, carved the golden spear, and moved.

The cavalry soldiers behind them let out a deep roar, the people and horses galloped, and the smoke suddenly rose. We're going forward.

On the vast Yellow sand Gobi, three groups of cavalry, finished in the shape of a cone, galloped forward to kill. Five thousand horses, shaking the ground, flying clouds.

At this time, thousands of Tibetan cavalry in the front were obviously aware of the changes in the rear. A whimper of horn fighting started, and the Tibetan cavalry turned around and abandoned the captured cattle and sheep to fight against the Tang army!
