In three days, break the city of Talas?

How is that possible?

Adele was full of disbelief.

She is not a lady who is not in the boudoir, and her ten fingers do not touch the spring water.

On the contrary, since childhood, he has been mixed in the mountain bandits, thirteen or fourteen years old, and he robbed the soldiers and caravans who passed by with his father, and he did not dare to say that he was proficient in marching and fighting, and he probably knew some simple truths.

The Tang army crossed the mountains and mountains, came from a long journey, and the tired division was also.

When I first arrived, I was unfamiliar with the place and did not understand the nearby terrain and the trend of mountains and rivers.

On the other hand, the defenders of Talas were at ease, with a strong city to rely on, and they had a clear understanding of the nearby terrain as soon as possible.

If you can't hold out with the help of a high wall, deliberately delay time, consume the grain and grass of the Tang army, and the grain and grass of the Tang army are not enough.

The defenders in the city poured out of the nest, which was enough for the Tang army to drink a pot.

She couldn't believe that Yang Yue had the confidence to break the city within three days.

Do you think of her as an ignorant child, an idiot?

On the side, Ager and other young people, hearing the voice, were also quite suspicious.

One by one, they walked to Yang Yue's side, gathered around the bonfire, Ager grabbed the wine bag and drank it bitterly, muttering: "Your Majesty, tell everyone, what method do you have to break the city?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, tell me how the Tang Army exterminated the Turks, Tibetans, and Khitans?" Another young man named Yang Wan chimed in.

The rest of the people looked up and stared, full of anticipation.

They have lived in the Western Regions all year round, and they have seen many generals of the Western Regions, but they have never seen anything more powerful than the Turks.

In recent years, the Turkic people and Tubo who fled from the east have been robbed one after another, and they learned from their mouths that the Tang Dynasty rose in the east.

Elite cavalry galloping, the eastern battlefield, there is no one who can be matched.

Over the years, they also know the Turks and Tibetans, and the elders in the clan often tell them not to provoke the Turks and Tibet.

In the area near Talas City, Mo said that they did not dare to provoke, and the menacing Sassanids of the Western Regions did not dare to provoke the Turks and Tibetans.

Who knows, the two major forces are not in the Tang Army's blade.

Without waiting for Yang Yue to speak, Adele said contemptuously: "Ager, Yang Wan, don't listen to his wild words, whether the Tang army can capture Talas City is still unpredictable, he claims to break the city in three days, and he is clearly talking nonsense." ”

Yang Yue heard this, smiled and said nothing.

After a long time, he sneered: "Hehe, the hair is long, and the knowledge is short!" ”

After that, Yang Yue pondered with his cheeks.

Adele was sarcastically and became angry.

She didn't want to offend Yang Yue, she stared coldly, and found that the other party's demeanor was serious, not like she was lying.

When I think about it less, I seem to understand.

She didn't know how powerful the Tang Emperor was, but according to her guess, it should be almost the same as the Turkic Khan King.

The other party commanded tens of thousands of Tang troops, if he lied, did he ignore the safety of the Tang army?

For a while, I was also curious, and asked: "If you have a good plan, you might as well say it directly, maybe we can help you!" ”

Yang Yue sneered, Long Yan said contemptuously with a little disdain: "In the grassland, a lonely city, it is extremely difficult for reinforcements to rush, no matter how strong it is, it has already exposed its weakness. Moreover, the climate here is arid, and the Tang army broke the city like a bag. ”

When everyone heard this, they became more and more curious.

Alone Adele became more and more contemptuous, feeling that Yang Yue did not understand the art of war, and said sarcastically: "You want to burn the city, I said, Talas City is made of huge stones, and very little wood is used, your method can be done elsewhere, but it won't work here." ”

"Yes, the city of Talas is indeed made of stones, and it is almost impossible to burn it." Ager chimed in.

Yang Yue spread out the map, put it on the ground, pointed to the river leading to Talas City, and said coldly: "Dare to ask, what if the river leading to the city is dug up?" ”

"In this way, the defenders of the city will hold out for three days!" Ager said firmly.

He has lived in the Western Regions all the year round, and knows the importance of water sources, which are not fatal if they are lacking in the short term, and after three days, they are terrible if there is no water source.

Moreover, if the river leading to Talas City was cut off, Clark would inevitably send an army to attack it.

We must not allow the loss of water to let Tang Jun cut his throat.

"That's right, you're underestimating the Sassanids!" Adele said angrily: "I even doubt that you really commanded the Tang army and defeated the Turks, Tibetans, and Khitans. ”

Scold!

Yang Yue snorted, not caring at all.

Glancing at Ager, he asked, "Your wolves are very powerful, can you assist the Tang Army in the battle?" ”

The wolves controlled by Ager are large in number and extremely ferocious, and they are crucially familiar with the nearby terrain.

Even if you can't fight the Sassanid infantry phalanx, it is absolutely easy to hunt down the spies and kill the lone cavalry.

Yang Yue intends to win over Ager, hoping to use the wolves to eradicate the Sassanid spies, cut off Clark's connection with Anthony, and eliminate the spies lurking outside the barracks.

Without the spies from all walks of life, Clark is like a blind man, and he will be left to the Tang Army.

Hearing the sound, Ager, Yang Wan, and Adele glanced at each other.

Not long ago, the Tang army killed several of their clansmen!

At this time, they helped the Tang army to help how to be worthy of the tragic death of the clansmen.

The old man in the Nai tribe claims to be a veteran of the Tang Dynasty Western Regions and a remnant of the Tang Dynasty.

It is only natural that they assisted the emperor in the war.

When thinking about it for a while, Adele said: "Uncle Yu, Uncle Li, if you are the emperor, we will naturally ignore the past suspicions, but you should bury the clansmen killed by the Tang Army." ”

"Naturally!" Yang Yue nodded and said.

"Since Uncle Yu believes in you and lets us follow you to fight, we will definitely not refuse, not to mention, Clark killed our people, this revenge must be avenged." Ager Road.

"That's right, this revenge must be avenged!" Yang Wan echoed with several young people next to him.

Yang Yue raised his head and glanced around, and asked in a low voice: "At present, how many people are there in the tribe, and how many can fight?" ”

He found that in the tribe, the elderly, children, women, young people, middle-aged men, but the number was scarce.

The number of people who could assist the Tang army in the battle was probably insufficient.

"In the tribe, for a long time, there are about 1,000 people living in it, except for women and children, young people, middle-aged less than 200 people!" Ager Road.

Yang Yue paused, stared sideways at Adele, and asked curiously: "Before coming, the generals in the army reported that there were 10,000 mountain bandits gathered here, and in the tribe, only two hundred young people, middle-aged, were the casualties so large?" ”

"Mountain bandits, they are all outlaws taken in by their fathers, but there are more than a thousand people, and the number is more than 10,000, so as not to attack our idea of thieves, among whom there are very few clansmen!" Adele Dao.

"That's right, fathers, in order to cover the safety of the clansmen, robbed the food, so they robbed the houses and killed the soldiers who approached, so that the passers-by only knew about the nearby mountain bandits, and did not know the existence of the clansmen."

Hearing this, Yang Yue suddenly realized, and had to sigh Uncle Yu's people, taking a good way to hide from the world, nodded and said, "Take me to the veteran's tomb and take a look!" ”
