Chapter 1097: Destroy the enemy
In his previous life, Talas was defeated.
It is inseparable from the temporary defection of the various departments of the Western Regions during the war.
Having learned from the past, Yang Yue naturally did not make the same mistake, lest the Tang army fight, surrender his troops to the battle, and put the Tang army in a dangerous situation.
What's more, the Tang Army's labor division went on an expedition, and the grain and grass carried were only enough for the Tang Army to eat.
If the prisoners are captured, there will be a shortage of food and grass, which will affect the momentum of the three armies.
No matter how brave the Sassanid cavalry in front of them was, except for Arnold, Sims, and Nizam a few important generals, everyone else had to be killed.
At this time, Yang Yue reprimanded the halberd, invincible all the way, killing Arnold, wanting to capture him.
Arnold heard Yang Yue's wild shouting, and saw him kill all the way, and the well-armed Sassanid Iron Cavalry couldn't stop it.
Thick blood, billowing heads, scattered on the ground.
Arnold's angry muscles skyrocketed, and he shouted: "Yang Yue, Ben will kill you!" ”
Even though they didn't know what each other was saying, they could know each other's attitudes from each other's expressions and momentum.
Arnold grabbed the short sword and spurred his horse to rush wildly, forcing Yang Yue like the wind.
Roar, wield a short sword, and look for melee opportunities.
One inch long, one inch strong, one inch short, one inch smart.
Compared to Yang Yue's Heavenly Halberd, Arnold's short sword is too short.
Fighting on horseback, there is no advantage at all, and if you fight in close quarters, Yang Yue's halberd advantage is gone.
Yang Yue learned of Arnold's intentions and rode his horse to fight, not giving Arnold a chance.
After more than ten rounds of fierce fighting, Arnold not only did not gain the slightest advantage, but was also stabbed by a halberd all over his body, and blood flowed in his shoulders, arms, and calves, and if it were not for the iron armor to protect him, his injuries would have been more serious.
"This bastard."
During the battle, Arnold's pressure doubled, and his eyes paid attention to Yang Yue, who was a little panicked.
This person is strong in martial arts, and he fights single-handedly, and he never gets any benefits.
Looking around, he saw Sims commanding the iron cavalry to fight and retreat, leaning towards his position, and a smile could not help but appear on his face.
All the iron cavalry assembled, moved closer, and charged Yang Yue with all his might, even if Yang Yue was brave and good at fighting, could he still stop the hordes of iron horses?
When Arnold turned around and shouted urgently, he was shocked to find that behind the iron cavalry led by Sims, a large force of Tang troops was frantically chasing and killing, chasing and killing the iron cavalry with earth-shattering thunder and an impenetrable rain of arrows.
Like a giant python, it devours its prey little by little.
The Iron Cavalry was forced to evacuate and did not dare to fight.
He didn't dare to come in the direction he was, lest he be intercepted and killed by the Tang army in the center.
Along the way, there were piles of corpses.
The ownerless war horse neighed and fled.
"Damn!"
Arnold scolded severely.
"Suffer death!"
Yang Yue's cold voice sounded in his ears, Arnold had no choice but to raise his sword to save his life, and when Sims led the troops closer, he shouted in panic: "Arnold, evacuate quickly, this Tang army is too strong, we are not their opponents." ”
When attacked, Sims considered leading his army to form a formation to meet the Tang army, but the trap outside the barracks broke his plan.
finally led the troops to withdraw, but the Tang army also chased them out.
At this time, the iron cavalry had already formed a formation, and when he was about to lead the army to counterattack, the earth-shattering thunder that landed on the ground, the oncoming arrows, like a life-reaping curved sickle, and the elite of the iron cavalry forward, died almost instantly.
In the center of the cavalry, many soldiers were implicated and died tragically in the rain of arrows.
The iron cavalry cannot be deployed in formation, and the power of the iron cavalry cannot be exerted, and when the swarming Tang army comes, it is like a chicken and a dog.
Sims led his army to force the block several times, but as a result, he inflicted more casualties on the Iron Cavalry, at this time, the Iron Cavalry suffered more than half of the casualties.
If you love to fight again, you will be wiped out.
Hearing this, Arnold no longer loves to fight, wants to save the elite, waits for the opportunity to fight again, the sword is blocked, Yang Yue's halberd is flying, and the horse escapes.
If you get rid of the pursuit of the Tang army and lead the army to break out of the encirclement, there may be a glimmer of hope.
Otherwise, they will all be buried in the wilderness.
Unfortunately, Arnold didn't have time to evacuate, Yang Yue's halberd had already stabbed over, slashed across Arnold's blade, and the blade's halberd pierced into Arnold's shoulder.
Ha!
Yang Yue shouted, grabbed the halberd, and threw Arnold into the Tang army.
With a pop, Arnold was slammed to the ground, and he got up in a hurry while rolling, and the Tang army rushed with a knife, and the blade stabbed into his thigh.
"Ahh
Arnold threw his head back and screamed, his voice creepy.
In the midst of great pain, several Tang soldiers pounced on him, captured him alive, tied his limbs, and tied him to four war horses, beware of his temporary escape.
Sims led the Iron Cavalry and witnessed Arnold's tragic situation, his face full of shock.
The commander was captured by the Tang army, and he and the infantry led by Nizam were at both ends of the Tang army, and they could not take care of each other.
If you love to fight again, it is easy for the Tang Army to break through one by one.
Sims didn't care about Arnold's safety, and waved his sword and shouted, "Evacuate, evacuate!" ”
"I want to run, I want to be delusional!"
Like a wolf, Attila led his army to catch up, and when he found Sims fleeing in a panic, he said coldly: "The whole army pounces on it, and the enemy cannot be allowed to flee." ”
He grabbed the repeater from his horse's back and fired at Simus continuously, and the sharp arrows flew like locusts, and Simus, who was well protected by his armor, escaped Attila's arrows and fled into the distance.
"It's so tenacious, it's a pity to die!"
Attila carried a repeater and rode his horse in pursuit, Sims was already dead in his eyes.
As the horses chased and got closer and closer, Attila glared at Sims in front of him, picked up his repeater, aimed at Sims' neck, and fired the repeater continuously.
A few arrows flew out, and a hundred paces away, there was a scream, and Sims, who was galloping wildly, suddenly raised his hand to cover his neck, and fell from his horse to the ground with a miserable wail.
"Kill!"
Attila grabbed the scimitar and shouted again, quickly catching up.
Gradually, as the Tang army approached from all directions, the infantry led by Nizam and Sims was gradually surrounded by the Tang army.
Without the general's command, the Sassanid infantry cavalry, at this time, was like a lost dog, and its combat effectiveness declined rapidly, and it could no longer stop the fierce attack of the Tang army.
Quite a few people, in a panic, threw away their armor and surrendered to the Tang army.
A small number of people led the army to hold on, but the mantis arm blocked the car and did not measure their strength, except for the death of their bodies, there was no better end.
From dawn to noon, the Tang army, with its powerful offensive, not only inflicted heavy losses on the Sassanid army, but also captured Arnold, Nizam, and Sims died tragically in Attila's chaotic arrows.
In this battle, the Tang army basically won a complete victory, completely eradicated the threat of Sasanid in the Western Regions, and laid the foundation for coming to the West in the future.
To put it bluntly, this battle was beyond Yang Yue's expectations, and even more beyond the expectations of many generals.
Next, he should wait for the rear generals and discuss with them the question of continuing to advance westward or returning to the court.
