Battles always come quietly. After all, the enemy is not kind enough to wait for you to prepare everything before attacking.
The "Wild Alliance" launched several night attacks in succession, causing certain losses to the Tang Army. The most important thing was that such harassment made it difficult for the Tang Army soldiers to have a complete time to rest, which would inevitably greatly reduce their combat effectiveness!
The Tang army has already taken action, and Nanman and Xihuang will naturally counterattack. This is one of them!
There is never a shortage of smart people in this world, or characters who think they are smart, so Tang Jun's alienation methods cannot deceive Murong Ke and He Lianxiong, let alone wise men like Mo Yukan and Gong Liangce.
However, if it is said to be completely useless, it is not necessarily true. At least the letters circulated among the small and medium-sized generals have planted seeds in their hearts. It will take time to see whether they can sprout.
However, what is relatively uniform is that only a small number of these people report the matter, while most choose to destroy the letters, but the contents are buried deep in their hearts.
The delivery of letters is extremely targeted, and spreading rumors is naturally a part of it, but there is also a coercion and inducement approach. All kinds of true or false news are mixed one after another, gradually converging into an invisible torrent, coercing Moving forward with everyone.
When the senior leaders of the Wilderness Alliance learned of this, a huge change had already occurred within the army. Although it still looked calm on the surface, there was actually an undercurrent surging.
Those who chose to stand up have already stood up immediately, while the remaining people who chose to hide have no matter whether there is a problem or not, their choices have caused cracks in the army to appear and continue to expand.
The Wilderness Alliance Army was originally a team that was put together temporarily. Unlike the Tang Army, the Southern Barbarians and the Western Wilderness were not very friendly. They were in a relationship of competing interests. Their cooperation is only temporary. Once the Tang State is eliminated, there will definitely be a war between them. Now they are just holding back due to the situation.
Mo Yukan and Gong Liangce met. The wise men on both sides understood each other's thoughts in a few words. At the same time, their frowns also showed the worries in their hearts.
The moves Tang Jun used this time were a bit off-the-wall, but I have to say they were extremely effective! In such a short period of time, the coalition forces were panicked, but it was difficult to find an effective way to solve it. This was the most difficult part!
Sometimes, conspiracy is the most difficult thing to crack!
The Tang Army has actually put the problem squarely on the surface. Naturally, they cannot stop the cooperation of the Wild Alliance. However, the problems existing in the coalition itself cannot be ignored, and what they do is to use various means to expand these problems. That’s all.
Once doubt arises, it can never be restored to its original state!
On the battlefield, if you are always wary of your companions, it will be difficult for such a team to exert much combat effectiveness! As long as the pressure from the outside world increases, the army's defeat or even mutiny is expected.
The top leaders of both sides have naturally thought about making amends, but even they themselves find it difficult to trust each other from the bottom of their hearts. How easy is it to convince the underground generals and soldiers?
Hidden dangers have been laid, and if left unchecked, they may detonate on the battlefield; and if a large-scale screening is carried out, they may detonate in advance, which is a dilemma!
Mo Yukan said: "For the current plan, it is meaningless to worry about the contents of the letters sent out. We can only let the generals restrain their subordinates step by step, fight quickly, and solve the battle before the problem completely breaks out! The longer it is delayed, the more problems will arise later. It will get worse!"
In fact, they had not thought of waiting for the Xuantian Sect to enter. At that time, the pressure faced by the Tang State increased, and they could obtain greater benefits at a smaller cost.
But looking at it now, their time has become more urgent than that of the Tang Dynasty. If it continues to be delayed, I am afraid that their team will disintegrate from within without officially starting the war!
The others' eyes met and they agreed with Mo Yukan's opinion. After all, there is no better way now!
"Lin Ye, Xue Potian, and the generals of the Tang State are not all deadliest people. The methods of these two are really amazing!" He Lianxiong said in a deep voice.
The rest of the people nodded silently in agreement. As the saying goes, "attacking the city is the bottom priority, attacking the heart is the top priority." As leaders, they naturally understand this truth. I just didn't expect that one day someone would use it on myself.
Murong Ke narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "The Tang army wants to fight, so let's give them a good fight! It's just the tip of a needle against the awn of wheat, so what do we have to fear!"
Although his words were full of domineering, but combined with the current situation, it was inevitable that he was forced to do so out of desperation.
The time should be sooner rather than later. In order to prevent another change, Murong Ke and He Lianxiong immediately issued orders and the entire army launched an attack on the Tang Army.
There are many reasons for the Tang State's decline from strength to this point, among which the corruption of the army is an extremely important part. And Lin Ye now leads the most elite army that the Tang State can assemble!
The fighting power of Nanman and Xihuang is extremely strong. If they encounter each other head-on, even this elite Tang army will have difficulty gaining an advantage. Fortunately, with the support of the heavy armored cavalry and the most elite "Iron Buddha", the role that the Southern Barbarians' light cavalry could play became extremely limited, and the Tang army's advance became more logical.
After the war began, the existence of the "Iron Buddha" became a serious problem for the Savage Alliance. Such an invulnerable heavy armored cavalry was an unrivaled killer weapon on the battlefield!
In fact, there is generally no good way to deal with heavy armored cavalry. If it is in an open area, the flexible maneuverability of light cavalry is usually used to drag them down alive. In such a large-scale battle, this method is obviously not advisable, because there is no room for the light cavalry to move around.
The remaining common methods are to use strong bows and powerful crossbows to suppress, and then use swords to attack the horse's legs. After all, even if the war horses and cavalry are fully armed, it is difficult to cover the horse's legs. This is the only weakness of the heavy cavalry!
Unfortunately, although the Southern Barbarians were good at riding and archery, the Tang army was good at using powerful crossbows and swords. It was difficult for them to find a team that could effectively restrain the heavy armored cavalry in a short period of time.
Fortunately, they still had strong bows. The southern barbarians suppressed the heavy armored cavalry, but it was difficult to block their charge. They could only watch the opponent rush forward, as if they were entering an uninhabited land!
At this moment, something unexpected happened. Some of the horses in front gave way, knocking the cavalry down, while others began to spin around, some staggered, and some neighed...
In just a short moment, the formation of the charging heavy armored cavalry was disrupted, and such a sudden change really made people confused.
Until a cavalryman shouted: "It's poison! This area is poisonous!"
Before this, there were many soldiers here, but no one showed signs of poisoning. There are only two possibilities. One is that the opponent's soldiers took the antidote pill in advance, and the other is that the poison here is arranged for the horses. The opponent had this idea from the beginning!
It is obviously impossible to prepare such a large amount of antidote pills, so the answer is obvious. The entry of the heavy armored cavalry was deliberately done by the opponent!
The cavalry commander began to roar loudly, ordering the cavalry to retreat, but how could the enemy miss such a God-given opportunity?
Teams of Xihuang warriors holding giant axes suddenly appeared on the battlefield, roaring and charging towards the heavy armored cavalry who were in chaos.
These battle axes are extremely heavy. When wielded by these Xihuang warriors with good cultivation, one strike of the ax will kill both men and horses!
If they were charged by heavy armored cavalry, these people would only be swallowed up by this torrent of steel! But now the situation is reversed, the heavily armored cavalry whose horses were poisoned have become meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered!
Xue Potian's eyes were cold. Although the most elite "Iron Buddha" had not yet been dispatched, the heavy armored cavalry that was in a deadlock was built by the Tang State with countless financial resources and efforts. Watching them being slaughtered, this veteran The general who had fought hundreds of battles was also ignited with anger!
"Are you from the Bone Erosion Sect? It seems that Xuantian Sect has already sent people to enter the venue in advance!" Lin Ye said solemnly from the side.
The Southern Barbarians did not have such a method before, and the most critical part of this strategy is poison! If you want to lay down such a poisonous formation without anyone noticing, it will be difficult to find other forces except the Bone Corrosion Sect, which is known as the "Poison Sect"!
"Pass my order, Yintang will go out, find these poisonous insects that hide their heads and show their tails, and kill them!" Xue Potian said angrily.
Nowadays, a large part of the Momen's power is assisting in the battle here. Under the orders of Juzi Lin Yan, these disciples will naturally cooperate and obey Xue Potian's military orders.
The heavy armored cavalry that was in a deadlock now had most of its casualties. Even if the "Iron Buddha" was sent in, it would be difficult to reverse the situation and would only increase casualties.
Since the cavalry is restricted, infantry will be used to advance. When it comes to fighting on the battlefield, Xue Potian's soldiers are not inferior to the barbarians!
Moreover, the poison array has a limited range and cannot cover the entire battlefield, so the heavy armored cavalry can still attack the wild coalition forces in other directions!
"Iron Buddha, go around here and go straight to the opponent's Chinese army camp!" Xue Potian gave the order, and "Iron Buddha" was like a black torrent running towards the center of the wild army, unstoppable!
During such an advance, there was no doubt that the "Iron Buddha" directly broke through the Chinese camp of the Savage Alliance, but there were no traces of senior officials such as Murong Ke and He Lianxiong among them.
Lin Ye, who was watching the battle, felt a shiver in his heart, and a bad thought slowly emerged from his heart...
