"Do you want to ignite the wolf fire to fight?" Mi Yuan asked for instructions.

Gao Yue nodded, "Our army came on a long distance, but wanted to fight with the main force of the rebel Qiang, otherwise the dry food and forage would be exhausted and food could not be sought in the wild, so the situation would be dangerous."

"Do you have to wait for reinforcements from the North and West Roads?" asked another Yu Hou.

"No need, we must not let this group of rebel cavalry pass through Qiwu Mountain, otherwise they will scatter into the desert and plagiarize our army's food routes again, which will cause a big mistake. As long as we can seize the territory between Qiwu Mountain and Baichengzi, the enemy's doors will be lost and the advantages will be in our hands. Rebel Qiang can only sit in the trap and die and go to fight!" Gao Yue made a quick decision.

At this time, Sibo Daye, who was standing behind the temple pillar, with his head bare and only a braid, held the Xi sword in his hand, and was thinking: "When will I be as powerful as the tall mountain of the Tang family? No, I can't live in the Tang family camp for a long time. I have to see the secret of the divine thunder and gunpowder as soon as possible, and then go far away to the desert and revive the glory of my Yao Si family sooner or later..."

Soon, more than 10,000 Tang cavalry, who were on the back of the mountains and setting up formations in black water, heard the sound of dongdong drums coming from Helian Bobo Temple. When they looked back, the black and white Pixiu flag had risen on the top of the mountain.

This is a signal of going to fight.

The one who served as the scouts of the cavalry at the front were 200 soldiers of the Dingwu Army's cavalry camp. Their horses were scattered wide, led by cavalry generals Zhu Bo and Sha Tong, and they were the front-line eyes of the entire team.

In the vast wilderness, the group of cavalry quickly saw endless teams of rebel and Qiang cavalry, with apricot yellow flags and many cattle, sheep and camels in the middle, rushing towards the Qiwu Mountain they occupied.

Of course, the people who were called "rebel against Qiang" were the Xia cavalry. They were led by Prince Nixiang, and there were two young "princes" Yuan Long and Yuan Sheng.

Prince Nixiang didn't expect that after they walked less than 60 miles out of the city, countless Tang family cavalry appeared at the foot of Qiwu Mountain.

In the wind, the wolf fire on Qiwu Mountain flew, shining on the forest, and the smoke stormed over the black water.

Then the smoke flew faster and faster, like a black ribbon, and was pulled up and down, and was torn into countless silk threads. The dark clouds on Qiwu Mountain began to roll and gather together, the wind became stronger and stronger, and in the sound of drums, the Tang army cavalry in various armored bodies, one by one, layer by layer, densely next to each other, horses trotted, and began to constantly push towards their own formations.

This is a battle without warning!

"Let the two princes return to Wancheng as soon as possible." Prince Nixiang was still clear before the battle and immediately shouted to the guards beside him.

"If you rebel against Qiang Ruo, you will go forward to fight; if you rebel against Qiang Ruo, you will chase you quickly." Gao Yue, who climbed up to supervise the battle, made such an order at the Helian Temple.

The Moe next to him also widened his eyes nervously.

Just as the Xia people escorted the two princes' vehicles and began to leave Prince Nixiang's main cavalry in the opposite direction, Yuan Hui climbed on it at the corner tower of Tongwancheng, and was asking the teams in the city to open the "Pingshuo Gate" to the north and rushed to rescue Prince Nixiang.

When the Tang cavalry crossed the Black Water, they were retiring and lined up with their backs to Qiwu Mountain, so they were more prepared for combat:

The general of the Yining Army, Fu Yuhuai, commanded the cavalry, the Qing cavalry, and the three battalions of war cavalry, and were on the left wing; the general of the Dingwu Army, Ming Huaiyi, commanded the cavalry, the thrust cavalry, and the three battalions of the cavalry were on the right wing; the two wings formed a horn-shaped horn, and the four thousand Qiang Yishou cavalry were in the middle, and the four thousand Qiang Yishou cavalry were divided by Pochao Yimo and Siba Dayo.

At the same time, Gao Yue ordered Ye Shiliangbi to lead the remaining 2,000 Qiang Yi to set up an ambush in the forest area of ​​the southwest corner of Qiwu Mountain.

Therefore, in the Helian Temple, there were only more than 23 yamen personnel below Gao Yue, who were commanding with drums, horns, battle flags.

"Bang", a crisp sound of cannon sounded.

Then there was constant sound of cannons.

When the Tang army's cavalry was about 200 steps away from Prince Nixiang, they took the lead in carrying out artillery attacks.

The cannon is a light tiger-crow cannon weighing one stone, with a total of twelve gates. It was carried by camels in the Tang army and brought along the way.

At this moment, groups of camels obediently lay horizontally on the grass, and the cannons were placed between two hump peaks. The gunners stayed behind the camels to control them. They put the sub-gun into the belly of the female cannon, pressed it tightly with wooden support, stuffed the projectiles and medicine cannons, and then lit the twists. So the muzzle quickly shook, and a stream of blue smoke jumped out. With the flash of fire, the projectiles dragged the smoke and flew into the front of the Xia cavalry in turn. Immediately, many Xia cavalry were overturned to the ground, and the war horses that lost their masters kept running around in the smoke.

As soon as the firing was completed, the hot and smoke-producing sub-gun was taken out, thrown aside, and then stuffed another one into it and continued to fire.

I saw the camel surrounded by the fire, the artillery fire was fierce and fierce, and the fire balls kept flashing, and the smoke was rising.

The troops under Gao Yue, whether they are cavalry or infantry, have extremely serious firepower deficiency, so even if the cavalry rushes for hundreds of miles, they must carry light artillery and prepare for firepower when starting a war.

It happened to be the direction of the wind. Amid the overwhelming shouts and horse hooves, the Qiang cavalry in the center of the Tang army pulled the bowstrings first, or raised the scimitar in their hands, and after the shelling was temporarily stopped, they launched an assault on the Xia cavalry in front of them.

Dangxiang's local dialect was full of shouts and scolding, and the Xia people angrily scolded them in person. These so-called Qiangyi followers who were the forefront of the Tang army were still on par with them a year ago. Dangxiang, Lishi, but now they turned their horses and killed the same brothers and feet.

However, when Shu Qiang killed Xia people, it was even more cruel than Tang people.

Countless cavalry shuttled past, arrows and sword lights intertwined densely, and the bodies fell from the saddle, making dull sounds, which quickly covered the sound of hoofs that shook the sky and the earth.

The central fronts of both sides are violently engaging in and out.

The two wings of the Tang cavalry were now like stretching cow horns or geese wings, rushing, wanting to double-team the Xia people.

The Xia cavalry also moved their wings and stepped forward to fight.

However, as soon as it came into contact, the Xia people realized that the battle cavalry camp headed by the Yining army and the cavalry camp headed by the Dingwu army were one of the men and horses, people were wearing marble armor, horses were wearing uniform vests, knights were iron helmets, silk robes on their heads, and cotton coats were lined with only a pair of eyes. They were invincible. Although the Xia people's arrows flew over, they could not hurt them at all.

Within ten steps, the Battle Cavalry and the Caval Cavalry camp began to draw bows and fire arrows. The arrowheads were sharp and thick needles. The Xia cavalry had no armor. Those who were shot were often penetrated by a single blow or penetrated their backs and died immediately. The cavalry of the other two battalions took the opportunity to kill with horse lances, mobs, and papa to block the cavalry, disperse the two wings of the Xia people, and began to close and encircle the core.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Prince Nixiang put down the apricot yellow flag in the formation and asked all the Xia people to break through in all directions and give full play to their light cavalry's advantages.

The Xia people began to flee, while the Tang cavalry followed him, shooting left and right, shooting the Xia people one by one.
