Section 807 On the Legend of Gong Ren
Arriving in Damascus, Lun Gongren immediately sent a thousand cavalry to the north and another thousand to the south, bringing back horses, and each completed the glorious task of circumnavigating the city. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Don't fight with the enemy, hurry along the avenue, kill pedestrians when you see them on the road, shoot when you see enemy troops, burn what you see that is easy to ignite, run when you hit, go and go back quickly!
At the same time, shouting slogans along the way: "Isfahan is broken, our Bodhisattva has defeated your gods, and your destruction is not far away!" ”
As for his main forces, they seized the time to destroy.
On the main road east of Damascus, all the trees there were cut down.
In order to survive the famine, the big cannibals planted date palm trees everywhere and the date palm trees planted before, what the Tang people saw, cut them down!
A large field of newly planted wheat will be eaten by horses!
There is a small temple located three miles outside the city, because of the haste of the incident, the Tang army surrounded the temple and took out the killing tools of swords and hoes, axes, shovels and other tools for demolishing houses......
An even bigger tragedy was in a bazaar (bazaar) outside the city, where there was an area of nearly 100,000 square meters, although it was far less than the big bazaar in the city, the goods were also dazzling, very down-to-earth, with all kinds of spices, carpets, tapestries, ceramics, fruits, food, etc.
On Gongren looked at the detailed map of the bazaar in his hand, where the main stalls were indicated!
Worried that the prince's intelligence system was really terrifying, he sent an order: "Captain Sun, you immediately attack the southern area and rob the fruits there!" ”
"Fruit robbery?" Sun Duwei, who received the order, was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he was a very sturdy Turk, who was good at killing, and he was good at archery, but his head was not bright.
His merits have been rising, and he has become a commander of the military government, and if it weren't for the staff officers who followed him and reminded him all the time, the commanders above would not dare to promote him.
"Grab it and eat it! If you can't eat it, you'll be ruined! On Gongren commanded him.
"What's the ruin? Set it on fire? Sun Duwei asked excitedly, he set fire to his hands.
"Stomp on it, smash it with a weapon, and eat it on a horse!" On Gongren taught him the Tao, and assigned his subordinates Niu and Xu Liangdu to go to the Eastern District to destroy the grain depot there, and he told the three captains and their fellow staff officers: "The time is initially set at an hourglass (about half an hour), and our military horns are together, and we will retreat immediately!" ”
He did not emphasize that the military order was issued anyway and must be carried out.
“GO! GO! GO! As soon as he waved his hand, his subordinates immediately went out to clean up the bazaar.
The most important thing is to destroy the granary there!
They brought oil and entered the grain depot area, went to the stone house where the grain was stored, found combustibles, poured fuel oil on them, and set fire to the grain.
Black smoke rose quickly.
……
The Tang cavalry unexpectedly appeared, the whole city of Damascus shook, the alarm bell rang non-stop, the city gate was closed, and the people went to the army to report according to the previous drills, received equipment and weapons, or prepared to go out, or did not go to the city for defense.
The whole city was in turmoil like a wave of water, and the smoke rising from the direction of the city was ominous.
After decades of peace, war is on the heavens of Damascus!
I have to say that the Tang people chose a good time, which was a surprise attack launched when the old soldiers had gone and the new soldiers had not arrived, which made the big cannibals panic.
Before, the main force of the Great Food Cavalry was stationed in Damascus, because of the rescue of the city of Lubat, the main force went east, and at the same time the local cavalry was recruited to come to be lacking, I don't want the local cavalry to arrive, but the Tang cavalry rushed first!
They shook the sky with their drums, shouted and set fires everywhere, and they didn't know how many people came.
The defenders of the eastern city looked at the city with fire in their eyes, and about 4,000 horsemen were there to show off their might.
"Hahaha! Great cannibals, there is a kind of come out to fight us! ”
"No cowardice!"
"Your god can't beat our Bodhisattva!"
……
The Tang people learned Arabic and insulted the big cannibals loudly and loudly, slapped them in the face, and the big cannibals in the city were hot and hot, and the humiliation was written
"Don't we still have 20,000 Praetorian cavalry? They are only a few thousand people, why not send them out to fight them! "Someone doesn't know why.
"Twenty thousand cavalry!" The officer in the know had a look of disapproval on his face.
There were 20,000 well-equipped cavalry in the city, but only 10,000 cavalry could fight, and they were responsible for defending the caliphate, the last force, and could not go to war.
The other 10,000 cavalry were noble young master soldiers.
They have the best equipment, the fastest horses, but the least able to fight.
The Wawang Ya Dynasty (white clothes and food) has gone through five generations, and there are many lords who have been sealed, and the children and grandchildren of the princes and ministers and generals also need to go out and need to advance, so they jointly formed a team of ten thousand horsemen and raised them, as long as they participate in the war, the credit will not be small.
The problem is that it is useless to go into battle and fight!
Thinking of their own young master soldiers, the defenders at the head of the city were speechless.
As for sending infantry, forget it, they all know that the Tang people like to fight infantry the most, and they shoot arrows from afar, and the infantry is only beaten, and there is no possibility of catching up.
Some people couldn't get angry with the foul language of the Tang people in the city, so they scolded the Tang people.
The next moment, I saw the leader of the Tang cavalry slapping his horse and rushing forward, shooting an arrow at the head of the city at a gallop!
A hundred steps through the Yang, as fast as a meteor!
The one who scolded the Tang people subconsciously shrank his head to avoid the bad luck of the headshot, but he heard a local sound, and the arrow was sandwiched with a strong wind, knocking his iron helmet through and shooting down, making him distracted and embarrassed!
The big cannibal was in a panic, and no matter how many arrows he threw into the city, the leading brother of the Tang dynasty retreated calmly, and the arrows were stuck behind him.
When he returned to the battle, his subordinates unanimously complimented: "The generals and soldiers surround Damascus, the enemy does not dare to come out, and then shoot an arrow to the helmet of the defenders at the head of the city, which is enough to chill the enemy's courage!" ”
On Gongren laughed and said: "That's still the prince's leadership, everyone work hard!" ”
He was very satisfied, the arrow just now was enough to make him famous, he became a legend, and his name will be recited by all dynasties and generations!
"On the general!" Three horsemen came from behind, two of them were his own cavalrymen, and the other was a junior student, who looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old.
When they arrived in front of Lun Gongren, the cavalry said, "Let's go and set fire to the bazaar, and this little young man came running over and said in Chinese that he was from the Tang Dynasty!" He's an agent! ”
"Oh?!"
Under the sharp gaze of Gong Ren, he realized that the descendant was a mixed race, with both the high nose and deep eyes of the West Asians, and the soft contours of the East Asians.
"My name is Liu Xiangdong!" Hou Sheng said shyly: "My father's name is Liu Gensheng!" ”
Surprisingly, he is fluent in Chinese and tells the story of father and son.
Liu Gensheng was a businessman who arrived in Damascus very early, opened a Chinese restaurant, and married a Persian woman.
Ostensibly a restaurateur, in reality he is an agent for the Military Intelligence Agency, sending a steady stream of intelligence back home and being loyal to his country.
When the war broke out, he was persecuted and caught to death by the Great Cannibal.
However, he handed over the information he had collected and failed to send to his son, telling him that he was a Tang man, and that he would give them the information once the Tang people called! (Wu Zhou Dynasty Tang Dynasty, but the Tang people outside did not recognize Wu Zhou)
Facing the blood feud of his father's tragic death, Liu Xiangdong lived like a year, and finally looked forward to the arrival of the Tang Army!
Hearing the words of the Tang people, Liu Xiangdong couldn't wait to run out to greet him and hand over the information, and at the same time
When Gongren opened the information, there was a map of the location of the granaries in Egypt, the furnaces in the Golan Heights, and the distribution of horse pastures in the Apoll region! The latest Damascus defense map!
Very important information! On Gongren said to Liu Xiangdong cordially: "Your father has made outstanding achievements, and his blood will not be shed in vain!" I will report the matter of your father and son to the prince, and he will reward you heavily!" ”
