Chapter 1003 Kaiyuan Border General Shows His Style (Third Update)
Some of the Tibetan soldiers were blown up by explosives bags and gunpowder from the monkeys, mainly because their skin was scorched and there were blisters.
Such an injury, if it is changed to the Tang army, will pick up the blister, and then apply medicine, not bandage, unless the area is too large.
Then drink anti-inflammatory and anti-fire medicine to target burns.
If the skin is badly damaged, it can only be removed for debridement, smeared with powder and wrapped in gauze.
Alcohol is normally not used, but is rinsed with saline, and when alcohol is applied to large wounds, a thick scab will appear.
At that time, the scab will have to be uncovered again and again, and after a long time, there will be a pit left in that part.
The best thing is actually iodophor, oh, now it's oil, badger oil.
Li Yi can't make iodine, and the foundation of the requirements is too high.
Tashi Kure didn't know these things at all, this was something that only people had in the Tang Dynasty.
In fact, for some superficial burns, horse oil is also good to use.
Tashi Kure now discovered something even more difficult, arrows, arrows used by Tang soldiers.
What kind of arrow is this, why does it not have a tail, it pierces directly into the body, and if you want to take it out, you must cut it.
I can't pull it out after piercing it, it's only been two days, and pus and blood are constantly flowing in that place, Datang still has such a weapon? It's too lacking in morality.
Tashi Kure felt powerless and tired, he didn't know what the arrow was called, but he knew that there were no feathers.
Yes, Guo Zhiyun's team used wooden feather arrows, and Li Yi took them out.
And there is rust on the arrow, if you change it to Li Yi's side, you will be blamed by others for using such a weapon.
For example, poison gas bombs, white phosphorus bombs, but accusations are actually useless, those who should use them still use them, and they do everything for victory.
When Li Yi gave the manufacturing drawings and said how to use them, Li Chengqi decided to operate according to that method.
The rusty wooden feather arrow pierced into the body, and if the wound was not taken out in time to clean up, the probability of infection was very high.
The deeper the piercing, the higher the probability.
Now there are people who have a fever because of the infection of the wound, and the arrow is not easy to take, and when the surrounding is squeezed, pus and blood come out along the edges.
When the Tibetan soldiers saw the change of color, they were afraid that they would be hit by the same arrow.
Barbed arrows are normal, and Tubo will also use them, but this kind of shooting the pole behind the person is gone, and it is the first time I encountered it.
"It's really not possible, let's make peace!" Tashi Kure had already helped Zampu come up with a solution.
Isn't there still Princess Jincheng, let Princess Jincheng write a letter to Li Longji, and then Zan Pu's posture lowered a little, and asked for peace in the tone of a junior.
Otherwise, this battle really can't go on, and the other unit sent out to fight Big Rock City has no news back, and the messenger must have been intercepted and killed.
……
Tashi Kure was right, the Tibetan army, which was already less than 40,000 people, confronted Ashina Xian's two divisions, and the supplies never arrived.
They have sent out at least six groups of people, more than thirty to ride, less than ten to ride, one to see the situation, the other to go back to report the news.
Either way, it didn't come back.
Then, as Zhang Xiaosong said and guessed, Tubo sent out a large number of cavalry to reconnoiter around.
The difference is that less than a thousand people were sent, only five hundred.
More cavalry are fighting with Ashina Xian, and there are not many cavalry from Ashina Xian and the Qarluq Division.
The Tibetan generals did not dare to reduce their cavalry ranks, and once they gave the other side a chance, the other side would inevitably take the opportunity to storm the cavalry.
On the battlefield, both sides will fight bravely, including infantry, and some strong archers will rush over to lure the enemy.
The strong archer has a long range, and a rain of arrows falls, no matter how the shield soldier blocks it, to ensure that there are missed arrows.
After the shield soldier blocks, he has to counter-charge, and if he doesn't charge, his morale will be gone.
Resisting passively all the time will make the resisting side afraid to fight.
As long as the enemy's arrows are sufficient, each time a little bit of vital strength is consumed, a few more times, and the attacked side will get used to not charging.
So the two sides came and went, but they couldn't take advantage of anything, and the cavalry played in circles with each other.
The difference is that there are many supplies from Ashina Xian and the Qarlu Division, and there are people to transport them later.
At the same time, the troops of the Anxi Jiedu envoy came up, and once the strength was too bad, a strong attack in any direction would cause a crisis for the entire army.
There is Tibetan grass, which grows on the ground and can be eaten by horses.
There are not enough rations, there are not enough arrows, only arrows fired by the enemy.
When eating, the non-combat units are reduced in number, consume less without exercise, and will not be hungry.
When the battle came to this, the commander of Tubo knew that he should withdraw, and he couldn't hold on.
He guessed that the grain road was intercepted, and what was even more terrifying was that no one came to report the news, how many soldiers did the other party dispatch?
With each additional day, the soldiers' physical strength decreased.
Just when he hesitated whether to give up some of the people and withdraw the large army, he finally waited for the key information.
Five hundred men went out, met a surprise attack of five thousand, chased all the way, and four horses exchanged back and forth.
Five hundred people are riding in pairs, and they can still run at first, and they continue to chase and escape, and the horses can't bear it.
Some of them gave up their horses to their comrades, and let their comrades run back to deliver the news, while they turned around and fought hard.
After a rain of arrows, the people who wanted to fight fell.
Some of the people who have more horses don't care about anything, they just urge the horses to run.
Run down one and change another.
It is impossible for a person to chase all the time, and even if a horse does not ride a person, it cannot always run.
Stopping, the horses ate the grass themselves, and the soldiers fed the horses barley for human consumption, as well as extra water.
Rest for an hour and keep chasing.
In the early afternoon, the remaining dozens of Tibetans finally joined up with the large army.
The Tubo side sent a large number of cavalry to block it, and the cavalry of Zhang Xiaosong's department adjusted their direction and shouted while running: "The two baggage teams of Tubo have been robbed by us, and Tubo has no ......supplies."
Boom, boom, the team of 20,000 horses ran away and rushed to Ashina's dedication.
As soon as they arrived, the troops of the Anxi Jiedu envoy arrived closely, and the cavalry went out and circled the rear of the Tibetan army to prevent the other side from sending cavalry back to report the news.
The generals on the battlefield cooperate with each other tacitly, and they don't need to pass orders, and they will follow up when they see the situation.
In the early days of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, the border generals of the Tang Dynasty were so powerful, they knew how to fight any one of them.
The most unlucky general in the history of this period was Zhang Zhiyun, and it was he who received his weapons, which was originally very good.
As a result, Jiang Hui in the imperial history pretended to be forced in the past, showing the kindness of the Tang Dynasty, and gave the weapon to the demoteer.
Then they mutinied each other, and Zhang Zhiyun was arrested without beating anyone.
Guo Zhiyun, who was in Shuofang at the time, led the troops to beat these demotes again and rescued Zhang Zhiyun.
Li Longji felt that Zhang Zhiyun had lost his teacher and humiliated the country, so he was beheaded.
Zhang Zhiyun is wronged, I will collect the weapons here, and your court will send someone to return the weapons, and then ......
Of course, there is no such thing now, Li Yi will not take it downgrading, and Zhang Zhiyun is still in front of his deputy capital, and he is very stable there.
And Jiang Hui didn't become a border patrol, and his brother Jiang Jiao joined the group.
