Chapter 1070 A Strange Sight
Yang Yue made up his mind and did not take Attila's suggestion.
Persist in leading the army and hurry to Talas City to find Clark to fight.
Tang Jun!
defeated all kinds of strong enemies one after another, and killed them on their backs.
Either move westward or surrender!
This time he led the army to the west, how could he be afraid of the mountain bandits, and he blocked the pace of the campaign, if it was spread out, it would not be laughed at.
What is the emperor's face?
Where is the prestige of the Tang Army?
In this way, why did the Tang army have to trek through mountains and rivers and mobilize troops to go on an expedition?
Attila failed to dissuade Yang Yue, and secretly ordered his cronies to be more vigilant along the way to beware of sudden mutations.
The Tang army marched westward, and Yang Yue sent a messenger to send an order, informing the king of Shu and the generals of the left and right armies to gather troops in Julan City, and after eradicating the defenders and city lords in the city, the army merged in Talas City.
Hundreds of miles away, the Tang army traveled non-stop for two days, and at dusk on the third day, it was almost arrived at Talas City.
However, as Attila said, the closer you get to Talas, the more bones there are in the yellow grass along the way.
Some have been gnawed into white bones by wolves, and some have not yet dried their bodies after they died.
The strange scene seems to verify Attila's words, this group of mountain bandits entrenched outside the city of Talas is very powerful.
However, Yang Yue still insisted on his opinion, and ordered the army to camp thirty miles east of Talas City.
The heralds bravely built camps, plus patrols, and left 10,000 iron horsemen to maintain a fighting state at any time.
If you encounter an enemy attack, immediately chase and kill.
Joke!
The tiger and wolf rode to chase him to fight in the north and south, would he be afraid of a group of mountain bandits?
......
Fifty miles from the city of Talas, in a valley surrounded by mountains, bonfires are lit up after dusk.
If you stand on the top of the mountain and look down, it looks like a huge basin.
Surrounded by mountains on all sides, the central lake is dotted with large and small lakes.
Around the lake, tents are set up, men are sharpening their knives, packing up scimitars and longbows, children are preparing food, and children are running around the campfire.
A happy look.
However, this is the place where the mountain bandits in Attila's mouth live.
At night, men and women, young and old, all gathered around the huge bonfire in the tent to sing and dance.
The peaceful life seems to be unaffected by the war outside, like an isolated paradise.
At this moment, a sturdy young man with an eagle feather on his head walked quickly through a dense forest and walked straight to a woman sitting by the campfire.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he said in a low voice: "Adele, Emperor Tang led the elite cavalry and appeared thirty miles outside Talas City!" ”
"What, Ager, do you want to trick the leader into robbing the Tang Army?" The blonde woman by the campfire was silent, and an older woman next to her questioned in surprise.
When Emperor Tang's army set foot on the land of the Western Regions, they had already received the news.
This elite cavalry wiped out the Tibetans, except for the Turks, how dare they go to touch the mold.
Hearing this, Adele's crystal clear eyes glanced at the injured clansmen from the bonfire, and her eyes were frowning, quite displeased.
At this time, Ager said angrily: "Ah Ai, of course I don't dare to rob the Tang Emperor's army, but the clansmen have been killed a lot by Clark's army, and a lot of food and girls have been robbed, if you don't manage to get food, the clansmen will all starve to death."
The army that provoked the Tang Emperor was to die, sit back and die, so I still recommend trying to grab food from the Tang army! ”
Adele grabbed the dagger, cut a piece of meat from the cooked meat on the campfire, and stuffed it into her mouth, chewing and thinking.
Seeing this, Na Ager said anxiously: "I heard from a merchant passing by that the Tang Emperor led hundreds of thousands of Tang troops to appear in the Western Regions, and it seems that he is preparing to march west to destroy the Sassanids in the West. ”
Adele ate cooked meat, sapphire-like eyes, looked at the young man and girl who were singing and dancing on all sides, and said in a low voice: "Concentrate all the food in the clan, first distribute it to the elderly, women and children, and tonight I will try to go to the Tang Army camp and strive to get some food!" ”
"Adele, is that okay?" Ah Ai hurriedly said: "My clan was chased and killed by the Turks, hiding here, the Turks were exterminated by the Tang Emperor led the army, you provoke the Tang Army, if you provoke the Tang Emperor, I am afraid that it will bring ruin to the clansmen." ”
"Eji, the clansmen must have something to eat!"
Adele got up, grabbed the scimitar stabbed in the dirt, turned to Ager and said, "Lead more than 100 athletes, bring the guys who eat, and follow me!" ”
"Old guys, take the guy who eats, and go with the leader to grab food!" Ager stood up and shouted to his dancing people.
Soon, a hundred men gathered around him!
When I was old, when I was young, my eyes were gloomy, and I looked at them, which made people quite frightened.
......
Inside the camp of the Don Army.
At night, the weather is getting colder and colder.
The soldiers of the three armies were brave, and they had already set up tents and lit piles of bonfires.
On all sides of the camp, the rear horse fence and the deer fence have been placed, and the half-person-high wall has been built with stone blocks, and the earth-shaking thunder has been buried in many places.
The entire barracks are heavily defended, and needles cannot be inserted or water can be splashed.
There are many open posts and secret posts on all sides, and if the enemy army attacks, the identity will be revealed in an instant.
In the center of the barracks, in Yang Yue's tent, a bonfire was also set up, and He Qinxin was roasting meat for Lin Miaoyin, Yue Nujiao and the three princes.
This is the skill she specially asked Yang Yue for advice when she accompanied Yang Yue to conquer the Turks.
After nightfall, Yang Yue deliberately went to patrol the camp everywhere, and after investigation, he returned to the military tent to accompany the three princes and concubines.
The army arrived outside the city of Talas, and in a few days, the Tang army would launch an attack on the city.
War is on the verge of breaking out!
At this time, Yan Yuefeng hurriedly walked into the tent, and after saluting, his face was cautious, and he hurriedly said to Yang Yue: "Your Majesty, the situation on all sides of the military camp is a little wrong tonight!" ”
Hearing this, Yang Yue asked excitedly: "What's the matter, in the city of Talas, the Sassanians stationed in the city have left the city?" ”
led the army all the way deep, and rarely encountered a large army, including him, all the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army had long been suffocated.
One by one, they are eager to fight, and it is good that the other party does not come, but if they dare to come, they will not be wiped out.
Yan Yuefeng didn't have time to answer, Attila also walked in quickly, as if he had something to report, glanced at the other party, Yan Yuefeng said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, listen, what is the sound in the night wind?" ”
Sounds in the night wind?
Why does it sound so mysterious?
Yang Yue frowned slightly and listened with his ears pricked up.
Clarke's Sassanid army did not come, and what sound could there be in the wind?
Yang Yue muttered, when he was young, his face gradually became cautious, and he walked out of the tent quickly.
Raising his eyes and looking around, he asked in astonishment: "What's the matter, why is the wolf howling so dense tonight, and there seems to be the chirping of mountain eagles in the night sky, which is a bit abnormal!" ”
During the march of the Tang army, they often stayed overnight in the wilderness, and occasionally heard the howl of wolves.
However, the Tang army was huge and murderous, and the wolves entrenched outside did not dare to approach at all.
Tonight, the wolf howled, but it was very close to the barracks.
