Chapter 280 Great Victory
Aken stood on the high ground, smiling at the heavy cavalry who gradually came out of the valley after dismounting, and said to himself: "It's true that they are the elites of the Arab Empire! The quality of this combat is different. Fortunately, you were wiped out here, otherwise I don't know what kind of damage to cause in the future!"
The archers on the mountains on both sides of the valley saw the heavy cavalry dismounting and heading out of the valley, but did not stop them, but continued to shoot at the other cavalry in the chaotic valley.
Finally, a few Tang army flags waved, and the shooting soldiers immediately stopped shooting arrows, took off their backs, and shouted angrily: "Kill! The Tang Dynasty will win!" They rushed down the mountain together.
There was also a group of Mo Dao soldiers who rushed into the valley first!...
…………
Those who escaped the Tang army's archers under the leadership of the commander of the thousand men, oh, are now heavy infantrymen. They all breathed a sigh of relief after quitting from the valley.
I saw from a distance that his follow-up troops came to the depression on the high ground in front of me. But suddenly I saw the infantry turning back in a hurry, trying to climb up the high slope and retreat.
The heavy infantry shouted and moved closer to their team, but the iron armor on their bodies was too heavy, which was too hindering and affected their speed. So someone threw away the big shield and started to unload the armor...
…………
The woman in white looked at the soldiers of the Abbasid Empire who had begun to retreat upward from the depression, and felt a little angry. The abominable wise man of the Tang army, he had already known my existence and made arrangements in advance. This guy's intelligence is no less than mine...
"Boss, it seems that there is no movement?" The gloomy man asked softly. The infantry team behind him had retreated and had just arrived at the troops in the depression first.
Before the woman in white answered, she saw a group of embarrassed iron-armored infantry retreating in the distance. Oh, it should be iron-armored cavalry, but where are their war horses?
"That's what you said there is no ambush!" The woman in white looked at the elite imperial elites who were abandoned and sighed.
The man's eyes shrank, and he was secretly shocked, "They retreated, why not go to pick them up?"
"It's too late..."
…………
"Huh? Why did you retreat back? Can't you come down to take the support?" Akan looked from a distance, and the heavy cavalry of the Dashi Country who had no horses retreated from the valley entrance and came to the depression. "Did they see that something was wrong?"
…………
On another high ground, a handsome general with a tall figure and handsome appearance looked at the Arab infantry phalanx that had arrived at the edge of the depression and slowly retreated. He sighed and ordered: "Their chief general saw through the ambush and ordered the ambush cavalry to attack!"
A gentle and kind general next to him is Duan Xiushi.
Duan Xiushi immediately bowed to take the order, pointed to the depression, and waved his hand. The flag bearer who had his own orders passed down the flag-word order.
The soldiers of the Great Food Kingdom who were shouting forward in the depression broke their throats and failed to call their troops back to help them. They saw the light infantry who were descending into the depression climbing to the high ground.
At this time, the heavy cavalry of the Great Shiguo who had just rushed out of the valley entrance and threw away his armor suddenly heard a dull sound of striking. It was like a giant beating a terrifying drum, and the vibrating ground was trembling. Even his heartbeat pulsated!
These experienced elites from the Great Food Kingdom were shocked and suddenly shook their souls! They could hear that this was the sound made by the cavalry troops when they attacked! Once upon a time, this sound was made by their own war horse iron hooves, destroying the will of many opponents!
And now it's my turn to fall into this despair!
Thousands of Tang cavalry appeared from the high ground on one side of the depression. First, there was a black line, and in a blink of an eye, a dark cloud poured downwards into the depression!
Just as the generals and officials were celebrating each other in public, they saw several soldiers breaking into the central army camp, all of whom were throwing their arms and armor, and their faces were covered in scorch.
He rushed to Gao Xianzhi's tent and shouted: "Report! General's big business is not good! Our army's baggage was sneak attacked by the cavalry of the Great Food Kingdom!"
With a sound of "Clang!", the cups in the hands of several generals slid down. Gao Xianzhi's face looked even more ugly.
The light infantry of the Dashiguo on the edge of the depression on the other side, when they saw the ambushing cavalry of the Tang army rushed out, they were so scared that they were so scared that they crawled up with their hands and feet. How could their four legs pass through their four legs quickly?!
The remaining soldiers of the Great Food Kingdom who had just taken off their armor and threw away their shields were quickly submerged by the Tang cavalry. The sharp horizontal sword could easily cut them into two pieces with the impact of the war horses!
The commander of the thousand-man looked back at his subordinates, and his bodies and heads separated, fell into a pool of blood, and his eyes were bleeding. He shouted loudly, raised his beloved Damascus sword, pushed away the personal guards' block, and turned around and rushed towards the Tang cavalry!
The personal guards sacrificed their lives to escort the guards and chopped down several Tang cavalry rushing over, but died one by one under the impact of more cavalry.
The commander of the thousand-man looked at the personal guards who had been following him for many years and died one by one, but his heart calmed down. He stabbed an enemy to death, stood with a sword, and looked back at the cavalry troops of the Abbasid Empire who had once dominated the West Asia, sighing in his heart.
At this time, a war horse whistled past him. His neck felt cold, and he felt that he suddenly flew into the air without control, spinning and seeing the vast scenery on all sides. He swung back and forth, and in the dizzy sky, a kind of inexplicable melancholy lingered in his heart, and he died in the battlefield. Isn’t this the most beautiful destination I once expected?…
…………
The remaining soldiers attacking the valley entrance of the Dashiguo Kingdom, the Tang army knights did not stop and rushed towards the Dashiguo light infantry who were retreating from the depression! Just as they were about to rush behind the Dashiguo soldiers who were retreating in a hurry.
A rain of arrows fell from the high place, blocking the final attack of the Tang army! At this time, the order to retreat sounded, and the Tang cavalry looked at the retreating soldiers of the Great Shiguo who were still unsatisfied, retreating like the wind!
…………
"It seems that wise man should have come too..." Akan turned his telescope and looked at the retreating army of the Great Food Kingdom, hoping to find his opponent.
A woman in white clothes and white horse stood among the group of soldiers in black clothes in the Great Food Kingdom, looking particularly abrupt.
"So confident!" Aken smiled at the corner of his mouth and looked at the Hu woman with interest, "Haha, this image is quite compatible with me."
Just as she was thinking about it, the woman in white looked over here, Akan was shocked! Can she feel it?
…………
"How can a wise man in the Tang army know your existence, boss?" the gloomy man asked in confusion.
The woman in white did not answer him, and quietly looked at the mountains in the distance, and calculated in her heart that Gao Xianzhi actually arrived at the battlefield in advance. According to previous information, he should be still a hundred miles away. How could he come so quickly?
Ha! Gao Xianzhi threw down the baggage! He must have let Gelulu and Bahan protect the baggage and march slowly behind, using a plan to escape from the cicada, confusing our scouts, and making our army's information mistakenly think that he is still moving slowly behind!
Unexpectedly, he had already taken the main force to assault lightly! The Tang army's infantry also had war horses maneuvering! What a Gao Xianzhi, who is worthy of being the "King of Mountains"!
So, the Tang army's food and supplies are still in the rear, hehe...
"Hurry to send a message to General Ziad, and ask him to launch the 5,000 ambushed cavalry, quickly detour the east and sneak attack Gao Xianzhi's baggage troops!" The woman in white said to the man beside her, "The other party only has tens of thousands of light infantry from Geluo and Bahan's tribe. She is not strong in combat. If you rob the camp at night, you will definitely be able to destroy Gao Xianzhi's food and supplies! Hurry!"
"That surprise soldiers..." The man wanted to say something, but the woman in white stared at her eyes and was so scared that she stopped talking and went to do business.
The woman in white looked at a mountain in the distance and murmured: "This is considered a tie..."
…………
Aken looked at the woman in white who was muttering to himself and broke out in a cold sweat for no reason.
The two of them met through the mountains for more than ten miles, and they negotiated an invisible edge...
…………
After killing this battle for half a day, the Tang army seized nearly two thousand war horses, thousands of sharp Damascus swords, spears, armor, and shields. It was enough to arm a cavalry legion of two or three thousand people.
Gao Xianzhi gathered his troops to station on the spot, rescued the wounded, helped the deaths, and counted the spoils. The second night, the banquet was held to reward the three armies. He also rewarded the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions. He even praised the personnel who joined the military headquarters.
At this time, the precious spoils seized from the front line were presented. Gao Xianzhi waved his hand and signaled to take them down and let the soldiers divide them.
Duan Xiushi walked over, "Slow!" He picked out a Damascus knife from many precious knives, put it in his hand and weighed it, waved it a few times, feeling the sound of the sharp blade cutting through the air, and was very satisfied.
Gao Xianzhi frowned. Duan Xiushi never covet these spoils, and he let his subordinates share it. Why did he feel sorry for seeing this best Damascus knife today?
The Tang Army Captain who presented the spoils, saw Duan Xiushi liked this knife, so he naturally didn't dare to have any ideas. The sword was a sword of a commander, and it was the best of all spoils! Well, only heroes like General Duan deserve it!
Duan Xiushi smiled and greeted Akan and handed him the knife, "You can take this knife around. In this ambush battle, the two of you designed to join the military should be the first contribution!"
Only then did Gao Xianzhi understand Duan Xiushi's intentions and nodded with satisfaction.
Aken looked a little flattered and said in fear: "How dare I take credit for my subordinates? It's all the generals who have good command and the soldiers who are brave enough to be invincible!"
"Hey! You don't have to be humble. Without your plans and surveys, how could the victory be so smooth! Come on, take it! Is it necessary for General Gao to issue a military order?" Duan Xiushi stuffed a knife to Aken and said furiously.
Gao Xianzhi was overjoyed: "Come on! All the soldiers, drink this cup together, and toast to the heroes who defeated the Hulu in our army!"
Chapter completed!
