771 The Collapse of Faith
The Tang army occupied the high ground, set up trebuchets in advance, and took the lead, and hit the Tibetan reinforcements by surprise on the spot, not only the formation was chaotic, but also caused a large number of casualties on the spot.
I can't beat it head-on, let alone hit the ambush, anyway, I came to support, and others can't say anything, the situation is critical, I can't manage so much, and it's important to preserve my strength.
Seeing that the enemy was about to flee, Cui Xiyi, who had been prepared for a long time, waved his hand, and the right army of Zhengxi suddenly came out from both sides, and carried out a second surprise attack when the three Tibetan tribes were in chaos, first throwing a wave of grenades, and then waving the weapons in his hand to harvest wantonly, killing the people of the Ba tribe, the Dalu tribe and the Khor Tibetan tribe crying for their fathers and mothers, and fled in embarrassment.
The right army of Zhengxi has been chasing and killing more than three miles, and Zheng Peng has only then accepted Mingjin to withdraw his troops.
While chasing and killing, the others also quickly cleaned up the battlefield, and as soon as Cui Xiyi's people returned to the team, Zheng Peng immediately ordered to rush to the next destination.
Cui Xiyi twisted his neck, and said with some unfinished words: "This battle is enjoyable, just like finding a rabbit's nest while hunting, and saying that the Tubo people are so light on life and death, one by one they run faster than rabbits, and now they are not tired of killing people, but they are tired of chasing people." β
"It was the collapse of their faith, the blessed place of their hearts, and we came with swagger; They regard the north camp of Zhenbei as one of the four iron guards, and let us all end up overnight, they think that the indestructible city of Luo, we say that it will be broken, even they regard the incarnation of the gods Zampu, but also say that death is death, after the patriarch of the Qi clan Di Ba'ao was trampled to death by a chaotic horse, more than ten people and horses, more than ten times the strength of the city surrounded, and it was impossible to cross the pond half a step, but our army frequently appeared to attack and provoke, and the faith and pride in their hearts were grinded to the ground, where would this be a light life and death, forget what they call us, devil! Zheng Peng said proudly.
Faith is accumulated bit by bit, it is easy to gather, and it collapses faster, and since the time when the Tubo people called the Tang army the devil, the seeds of timidity have been planted in their hearts.
No one is really afraid of death, and the cowering of Ku Dating, Xinuo Luo Gonglu and others greatly suppressed the enthusiasm of the Tibetan soldiers, so that the belief that the Tibetan Empire relied on for survival collapsed.
is a very simple example, when watching war movies, the more casualties, the happier the audience will be, but when watching thrillers, especially when watching horror movies, even individual deaths are terrifying, many people dare to sleep at night with the lights on at night after watching them, Zheng Peng also has many ghost movies and is so scared that he buried his head in the quilt to sleep, and later watched the expert explain, only to know that it was the fear of unknown death.
Cui Xiyi nodded thoughtfully, and said with admiration: "I have been taught." β
While riding a horse, Lan Duo asked curiously: "Strange, the fight is all over here, why is there no movement on General Guo's side at all?" β
"It's not strange" Zheng Peng said: "Ku Dating has always been cautious, he will not be as aggressive as these people, he must be careful and careful, he likes to play psychological warfare on the battlefield, and he just happens to meet my eldest brother in chess, it is not strange to be slow, well, it is estimated that it is also fast." β
As soon as the words fell, the explosion of a fire bomb suddenly sounded in the distance, and soon there was a shout of killing, and it was obvious that Guo Ziyi was fighting with Kun Dayan, who was supported by the other way.
"Zheng Peng, I didn't expect you to be able to pinch and calculate, which also makes you right." Lando said with a look of surprise.
It was rare for Lan Duo to praise him, Zheng Peng just laughed and didn't answer, but discussed the next move with Cui Xiyi.
The battlefield is changing rapidly, how can you expect to be able to pinch and calculate, you are from the intelligence you collected, according to the enemy's travel habits, horsepower and distance, about the estimated time they will need, Lan Duo only saw his majestic scene, did not realize how much sweat he had put in behind his back.
The Tang Dynasty began to study the old rival Tubo more than 100 years ago, although the relationship is good and bad, but has not stopped the pace of secretly collecting intelligence, about the intelligence of Tubo, the secret treasury of the military department is piled up, Zheng Peng plans to annex Tubo, the relevant intelligence collection work not only did not slow down, on the contrary, it was unprecedentedly active, from the allocation of troops, to how to go on the country road, what are the interests and hobbies of important targets, advantages and disadvantages, etc., in order to destroy the Tibetan sacrifice festival, Zheng Peng and Guo Ziyi, Cui Xiyi made several plans and a large number of emergency measures, some important geographical locations, and even made a simple sand table to study.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zheng Peng led his troops out, even if he didn't bring any grain and grass, and he was not afraid in a short time, because Zheng Peng had a top-secret map in his hand, in which more than a dozen secret granaries where Datang was secretly storing grain were placed in very hidden places.
This time the army sent to Tibet, the surface of the Western Army is infinite, firearms are the number one hero, but in fact, there are countless Tang Dynasty efforts and contributions behind it.
Guo Ziyi's tactics are the same as Zheng Peng's, they are all quick and fast-attacking, causing a large number of casualties in a short period of time and then quickly withdrawing, and retreating in less than two quarters of an hour after an ambush battle, leaving a battlefield full of corpses, most of which are the corpses of Tibetan soldiers.
"General, the Don Army ran away, we... Chasing or not pursuing? A commander wiped the blood from his face and asked cautiously.
I don't understand, the Tang army obviously has the upper hand, but the Tang army only chased for a while, and after causing a certain amount of damage, he turned around and left, making the general's arrangement fall through.
Kun Dayan gritted his teeth and said: "Poor Kou Mo chase, just send a team of clever scouts to follow from afar, anyway, they are out of the city, you can play with them slowly, count the losses first, by the way, Uze and their way have also been ambushed, send people to see their losses." β
In addition to being brave on the battlefield, there must also be a plan, Ku Dating guessed that the Tang army would not be so simple, he kept an eye on it when he came, set up an ambush in a hidden place, retreated when it was attacked by the Tang army, and lured the Tang army to chase and kill, as long as the Tang army was introduced into his own ambush, and then he rushed up to eat it, it can be said that Ku Dayan was deliberately sent up, and when he met the Tang army, he had the intention to escape, exposing his back to the Tang army, but he didn't expect the Tang army to just chase and kill a section and take the initiative to give up.
You must know that at that time, the Tang army was less than a mile away from the ambush circle, but the Tang army withdrew its troops in time, and Kun Dating was so angry that his face turned blue.
It's just that you can't give up your child and can't trap the wolf, and you lose your wife and soldiers,
As soon as the commander of the thousand commanders received the order, Ma Sangkui, the patriarch of the Ge clan, walked over with a gloomy face, and said with a painful face: "These Tang soldiers have simply become essences, they are really angry." β
In this rescue, although Ku Dating also personally went out to act as a bait, in terms of division of labor, Ku Dayan's people were mainly responsible for ambushing, while Ma Sankui's people were responsible for luring the enemy, and the Tang army did not enter the ambush circle, which meant that the casualties of the Ge clan were far higher than those of Ku Dating.
I can't be happy to change anyone, Ku Dating is powerful, and promised to divide the spoils equally with Ma Sangkui, Ma Sankui agreed to act as a bait, but I didn't expect to miscalculate, and the Tang army took the initiative to retreat with all the advantages.
Ku Dating smiled bitterly: "If they don't have some ability, they can still take some cities?" β
The more Ma Sankui thought about it, the more unwilling he became, and said indignantly: "There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty that is good, the monk can't run the temple if he can run, most of the Tang army has run, but the scouts said that they didn't take prisoners, some people saw that after the Tang army appeared, the Tang princess also appeared in the gatehouse of Luo City, and Luo Some City still has Tang soldiers guarding, there are not many Tang troops who came this time, most of them have already left the city, that is to say, Luo Some City is very empty, general, it is better for us to take Luo Some City, first recapture the capital, take the slut of Princess Jincheng, and look at the surname Zheng will not be compliant." β
There were so many dead and wounded, and there was no benefit, and now he didn't even dare to chase, this battle was fought so badly, it was not good to breathe, Ma Sankui was really afraid that he would not sleep well at night.
"Very well, Patriarch Ma would like to be the striker?"
"Thisβ" Masankui immediately recoiled.
Ku Dating appeased him and said: "Some city walls are high and solid, it is difficult to capture by ordinary means, Zheng Peng dares to leave the Tang princess in some cities, there must be a back, some cities can be taken, the loss must be great, the patriarch is right, the monk can run, the temple can't run, it is better to find a way to eat the large army of the Tang army first, leaving an isolated and helpless Luo city, it is much easier to take it, most of the Tang army left the city, most of the city is our own people, maybe we don't have to attack, the people inside look for an opportunity, in the city to solve the Tang army, How nice. β
After a pause, Ku Dating continued to analyze: "What if you spend a lot of money to take Luocheng City and catch the princess of Jincheng?" Zheng Peng attacked Luo Qi City that day, if he was afraid of Princess Jincheng, would he still fight? At this time, not to mention a princess on the sidelines, even if they caught the prince of the Tang Dynasty as a hostage, it was probably useless, why did the Tang army dare to give up Luoqi City, that is, they had the confidence that they could recapture it. β
Kun Dating appeased Ma Sankui in his mouth, and he also had a fire in his heart, and he had fought dozens of battles, but he had never fought such a wretch.
