A fast horse rushed from the front at great speed, followed closely by a Qianniu Guard who had already rushed into the ancient city of Qugou.
Liu Rengui stood on the wall of Qugou Ancient City, looking at the Lunqin Mausoleum with a red lion and elephant flag ten miles away, with a faint look in his eyes.
Qianniuwei quickly came up from the city wall, and a battle report was handed into Liu Rengui's hand.
Liu Rengui was a little surprised. He opened the battle report directly, took a look, and his eyes couldn't help but jump.
At this time, a slightly hoarse voice sounded from behind: "Commander, what happened?"
"General!" Liu Rengui turned around and handed the battle report in his hand to the middle-aged Turkic nobleman with a beard and a felt hat behind him.
The Turkic noble received the battle report, opened it and read softly: "The cavalry of the King of Nanchang encountered two thousand cavalry of the Tibetan Tiger Division in the middle reaches of the Seri River. They defeated one thousand of the enemy in a quarter of an hour, and another thousand in two quarters of an hour. , half an hour later, another thousand enemies were defeated, and less than a hundred were injured; three thousand Tibetan Tiger Divisions crossed the lower reaches of the Seri River, and the King of Nanchang led his cavalry into them and broke the formation..."
The Turkic noble suddenly looked at Liu Rengui with disbelief on his face: "Commander, is the King of Nanchang crazy... is he so cruel?"
"Haha!" Liu Rengui laughed, couldn't help but shook his head, and said: "He has an epiphany on the cavalry fighting method. Unexpectedly, besides Wang Xiaojie, Dalang also suddenly enlightened on the combat method. It seems that that matter is good for him. His influence was huge.”
"That thing?" the Turkic noble asked curiously.
Liu Rengui took out an official document from his arms and handed it to the Turkic nobles.
The Turkic noble took it, opened it, took a look, his eyes were extremely surprised, and then he seriously raised his hands to Liu Rengui and said: "Congratulations, Marshal, Congratulations to the King of Nanchang."
Liu Rengui shook his head, put his hands behind his back, looked at the battlefield in the distance, and said softly: "This matter has been reported to the army the day before yesterday, and I deliberately intercepted it. In the entire army, I am the only one who knows about it. Lang knows that something happened in Chang'an, but he still doesn't know the details. Who would have thought that what happened today would happen."
"Commander, you must have done this on purpose." The Turkic noble looked at Liu Rengui with a wry smile.
"Not really." Liu Rengui sighed, waved his hand and said, "I thought he would be more cautious, but I didn't expect that he actually understood the cavalry tactics."
Liu Rengui had never worried about Li Xuan's safety. With Li Xuan's caution and the presence of thousands of cavalry, nothing would happen easily.
But Liu Rengui was extremely surprised by the continuous attack of three thousand and three thousand Tubo cavalry by one thousand.
In the entire battlefield, only Hei Te Changzhi and Wang Xiaojie had done this kind of thing.
Now, there is another Li Xuan.
"In this way, the battlefield situation has changed." Liu Rengui took a breath, turned sideways and asked: "Where is Wang Xiaojie?"
A Qianniu guard took half a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to the commander, half an hour ago, Wang Xiaojie's troops were twenty miles away from Chaka."
Liu Rengui nodded silently, lowered his head and thought. After a moment, he said directly: "Send the order, Sun Ren's division, cross the river and build a bridge, and move forward quickly."
"Here!" Qian Niuwei turned around and gave the order.
Liu Rengui turned to look at the Turkic nobles and said in a deep voice: "General, now everything depends on the general."
"Don't worry, Commander." There was a trace of desire on the face of the Turkic nobleman, he cupped his hands, and then immediately got off the tower.
Soon, the Turkic nobles had led a group of Turkic cavalry towards Qinghai Nanshan.
Half an hour later, he had rushed into the mountains and forests in the north.
There were countless Turkic cavalry lurking in the vast mountains and forests.
In the ancient city of Quchi, Liu Rengui turned around and looked at the Tubo flag in the distance. He wondered what the expression of the Lun Qin Mausoleum under the lion elephant was now.
At this moment, Lun Qinling seemed to sense something and suddenly turned his head to look at the ancient city of Qugou.
But in the ancient city of Qugou, except for the two thousand infantry, there was nothing unusual.
Lun Qinling wrinkled and looked towards the ten miles northwest of Qugou Ancient City, where the black scroll was slowly moving forward.
…
The black cavalry divided into two torrents, one on the left and one on the right, passing directly on both sides of the main infantry on the right guard.
Before the Tubo cavalry who were chasing after them could see clearly, countless arrows rained down directly on their heads like black clouds.
"Bang bang bang!"
Countless crossbow arrows passed through the thin body of the Tubo cavalry, and then were nailed to the ground.
Hundreds of Tibetan cavalry all fell down in an instant, and their blood instantly accumulated into a small puddle.
With a "buzz" sound, ten one-foot-long Fuyuan crossbow arrows passed through the sky at high speed.
A young Tubo cavalryman didn't react at all. The Fuyuan crossbow arrow had penetrated his chest.
A blood hole the size of a fist appeared in the middle of the chest of the Tubo cavalry. Looking from front to back, five or six such blood holes appeared in a row.
Ten far-reaching crossbow arrows and fifty or sixty Tibetan cavalrymen with bleeding holes in their chests sat silently on their horses.
It looks particularly penetrating.
He tilted his head, and with a snap, these Tubo soldiers fell to the ground one after another.
The Fuyuan Crossbow, a weapon for defending the city, is also a weapon for tens of thousands of soldiers to carry with them for killing.
When the Tubo cavalry in the distance saw this scene, they subconsciously slowed down their horses and swallowed their saliva. At this moment, dozens of rolling stones appeared high in the sky and rolled down with a harsh scream. Come down and hit the army hard.
In an instant, more than a dozen bloody roads were smashed out among the Tubo cavalry.
Li Xuan looked back and saw that the Zuowei army was advancing steadily step by step under the command of Xiao Siye.
The soldiers at the front opened their shields one by one, forming a circular formation. Countless long spears were placed between the shields, and then they moved forward step by step.
Each team formed a circular formation, separated by three feet from each other, and then like hedgehogs, they directly killed the Tibetan cavalry.
In the middle formation, cavalry, crossbowmen, and catapults were also moving forward slowly.
After taking a look at the big flag in the center, Li Xuan immediately turned his head. The next moment, he had already led thousands of cavalry under his command and rushed towards the middle reaches of the Seri River again.
The few hundred cavalry remaining in the original middle reaches had just finally arranged themselves into formation under the command of the hammer-wielding general, preparing to support the lower reaches.
At this time, Li Xuan had already rushed straight from below.
This time, Li Xuan's cavalry no longer had the same speed as before.
When the hammer-wielding general saw this scene, his expression was suddenly shocked.
Without the speed of the cavalry, the combat effectiveness is reduced by at least half.
Immediately afterwards, with a shout, the hammer-wielding general rushed towards Li Xuan with his cavalry.
He looked at Li Xuan, who had a square face, with a ferocious face, and raised the hammer in his hand high, as if he was about to smash Li Xuan, who was holding two long swords, flat with the hammer.
At this moment, Li Xuan's right wrist on the opposite side shook violently.
The long sword was turned upside down and put directly into the sheath.
Li Xuan grabbed the eight-foot long spear behind him. The long spear with the black cloak suddenly passed through a distance of ten feet and hit the chest of the hammer-wielding general.
The hammer-wielding general was suddenly startled, and the hammer in his hand hit Chang Li in front of him.
There was a loud "dang" sound, and Changsha was smashed and spun upside down.
The black cloak suddenly swept across the eyes of the hammer-wielding general, and the hammer-wielding general's eyes instantly turned black.
It was at this time that he suddenly felt a cold feeling sweep across his throat.
The next moment, the light reappeared and the sun appeared in front of us.
High in the sky.
At the last moment of his life, the hammer-wielding general glanced at Li Xuan who rushed past him.
In front of Li Xuan, hundreds of Tibetans had already huddled together, and some even turned their horses and rushed towards the other side of the Sairi River.
But the black torrent has crushed him away.
…
The black cloak was draped behind him again. Li Xuan held a spear eight feet long, with the tail pressed on the horse hook. He moved his right hand lightly from left to right, tearing the throats of the Tibetan cavalry in front of him in an instant. The next moment, in front of Li Xuan, It's completely empty.
Without looking back, Li Xuan also knew that the Tubo cavalry behind him had been directly destroyed by the thousands of cavalry under his command.
Behind me, there were countless corpses of Tibetan soldiers floating on the Seri River.
But more right-guard cavalry had followed Li Xuan to the west bank of the Seri River.
Li Xuan continued to urge the horses forward. To the southwest and on the north bank of the Shazhuyu River, three thousand Tubo cavalry were rapidly approaching the battlefield to the east.
The three thousand Tubo cavalry there were being chased by Xiao Siye's main force of the left guard, and the situation was very unfavorable.
After Li Xuan led thousands of cavalry to the west bank of the Seri River, the three thousand Tibetan cavalry immediately slowed down their advance.
A thousand cavalrymen even slowly pushed towards this side.
Li Xuan sneered, and the horse in front of him suddenly jumped forward. The Tubo cavalry in the distance suddenly stopped.
On the black battle armor, the left side was completely blood red, while the right side was as black as ink. Li Xu looked like a devil killed out of hell.
From a distance, it looks particularly penetrating and terrifying.
Even the equally ferocious Tubo cavalry felt their breathing stagnant.
"Hahahaha..." Li Xuan couldn't help laughing wildly. He didn't want to laugh, but he still couldn't help laughing.
The Tubo cavalry in the distance subconsciously tightened their horses. For a moment, the horses neighed, and countless Tubo cavalry couldn't help but retreat.
Li Xuan waved his hand back, and a whole team of fifty cavalry had already lined up diagonally, and then slowly pressed forward with Li Xuan.
More Tang cavalry lined up behind and pressed forward slowly, but the Tibetan cavalry on the opposite side did not dare to take a step forward.
…
Under the cover of the cavalry in front, a thousand infantrymen from behind had quickly caught up, and then rushed to build a dam on the Sere River behind Li Xuan.
There is not much time left before Tubo opens the dam and releases water.
Nan Ju followed Li Xuan and looked at the fearful appearance of the Tubo cavalry in the distance. He couldn't help but shake his head. At this time, he came slightly closer and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, in this situation, will the Tubo people still do this?" Attack with water?"
"Yes." Li Xuan led a group of cavalry and continued to press forward slowly. His eyes fell on the Lun Qin Ling under the banner of the Lion Elephant on the other side, and he said solemnly: "Don't you think that in Lun Qin Ling's plan? , is there a huge loophole?”
"Is there any?" Nan Ju was stunned for a moment, then raised his hands and asked, "Please give me more details, Your Majesty."
Li Xuan sighed softly, pointed to the Tubo cavalry in front, and said in a deep voice: "Under the flood, the water is muddy, our army is trapped, so how can the Tubo cavalry be better? How can we talk about Qinling?" Do we really expect those cavalry to attack us under the flood?"
"No, definitely not. Qin Ling has other trump cards." Li Xuan's voice was decisive.
