Chapter 1474 Ambush
I was about to return to Tubo, but I was safe, and I was just one last step away from the ambush of the Tang army?
However, they did not find any signs of the Tang army along the way. How could the Tang army enter here to set up an ambush?
Not only were the personal guards confused, but even Songzan Gampo himself was confused. He did check carefully and confirmed that before entering this valley, he had already confirmed that there was no ambush in the Tang army.
But now I am encountering an ambush. Where did the ambushing Tang army come from?
Could it be that it fell from the sky?
After realizing that there was an ambush, Songtsen Gampo's first reaction was to retreat quickly.
But now the road behind has been blocked by the falling rocks, and there is no way out at all, so I can only move forward.
"Warriors, we have no way out. Tubo is ahead. As long as we rush over, it will be safe!"
"The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road!"
"Roll!" Songtsen Gampo shouted.
In fact, Songtsen Gampo doesn't need to remind these guards to understand what the situation is now.
There is no way out afterwards, so you can only move forward!
Only by rushing over can you survive!
"Run!"
"Run!"
The guards who were pushing me and turning around were pushing their horses forward again, preparing to launch a charge.
At this time, there was suddenly another movement on the mountain. Songtsen Gampo looked up and couldn't help but take a breath.
There were archers ambushing the mountain top. No wonder the mountain eagle kept hovering and chirping in the sky!
"Run! Go quickly!" Songtsen Gampo didn't care about tidying up the formation and immediately urged the horse to rush forward. All the personal guards beside him were rushing to gallop in panic.
However, it was too late. After all, nearly a thousand cavalrymen were crowded together, and they didn't run so fast.
Buzz...
The rain of arrows shot down from the mountain.
Although Songtsen Gampo's personal guards were wearing armor and constantly waving their swords to resist the arrows, many of them still screamed and fell to the ground, and some were not killed by the horse...
This wave of arrow rain has caused Songtsen Gampo's personal guards to suffer heavy losses.
Songtsen Gampo looked back and couldn't help crying. There were only a few personal guards left beside him, and he experienced another wave of arrows, which was even worse.
There is a mountain pass in front, and there is hope in front. As long as you rush out, it means safety.
However, Songtsen Gampo understood that it was not that easy to rush out. Since there were ambushing archers on the mountain, there was no reason to just ambush the archers. There would definitely be a large army ahead to block the way.
Sure enough, a soldier appeared in front of him and blocked the mountain pass.
But Songtsen Gampo was soon stunned because he suddenly discovered that the soldiers and horses appearing in front were not the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, but the cavalry of the Tubo!
What appeared in front of them was the Tubo cavalry!
For a moment, Songtsen Gampo was filled with ecstasy. Could it be that Lu Dongzan sent cavalry to support him? Could it be that this Tubo cavalry defeated the Tang cavalry that was ambushing here?
No, not right!
Songtsen Gampo suddenly strangled the war horse because he suddenly realized a problem.
If this Tubo cavalry really solved the Tang Dynasty cavalry ambushed at the mountain pass, and there was still rain of arrows shooting down on the mountain, it means that the Tubo cavalry had just finished fighting the Tang Dynasty cavalry and had not had time to solve the Tang Dynasty archers ambushed on the mountain.
However, he found that this Tubo cavalry did not seem to have fought just now!
Songtsen Gampo suddenly stopped the war horse, and the guards beside him and behind him also stopped quickly.
At this time, they also discovered that the cavalry that appeared at the mountain pass were their Tubo cavalry.
For a moment, they were ecstatic.
They had already met their Tubo cavalry in front of them. Are they still afraid of the pursuit of the Tang army? Are they afraid of the ambush of the Tang army?
How could the Tang Army ambush? I'm afraid it has been solved long ago?
"Zanpu, Zanpu, is his own person, our Tubo cavalry! He is the Tubo cavalry!" said the personal guard next to him.
However, Songtsen Gampo's face did not look any surprise, but instead he was surprised and suspicious.
"But they were the Tubo cavalry, but why did the arrows rain on the hill?" Songtsen Gampo asked.
"Maybe they haven't had time to clear the Tang army on the mountain!" the personal guard replied.
"If there is a Tang army ambush on the mountain, there is no reason why there are no Tang cavalry ambushing at the mountain pass. However, this Tubo cavalry showed no sign of fighting!" Songtsen Gampo said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, the guards couldn't help but observe carefully. They suddenly found that the cavalry was really not as good as they had just fought.
The surprise in their hearts suddenly disappeared a lot and became a little surprised.
"Can it be the ambush on the mountain and our Tubo archers, but they are afraid that we will mistakenly think they are the Tang cavalry?" Some personal guards hesitated.
It would be better if it was a mistake. Although it was a very serious mistake to admit it, Songtsen Gampo hoped that his subordinates had made such a serious mistake.
Songtsen Gampo pondered: "Although there is also a possibility, the possibility is too low!"
"There is another possibility, that is, someone wants to rebel! Now there are people who are treasoning against Tubo and can send troops here to intercept me. Only one person can do it, that is Lu Dongzan!"
"However, Lu Dongzan cannot cover the sky with one hand! So, no matter whether the ambushed in front of us are the Tang Dynasty cavalry or the Tubo rebels, as long as we rush over, we will definitely achieve the final victory!"
The guards couldn't help but calm down. They knew that there would be ambushers ahead, and whether it was the rebels of Tubo or the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, they were actually the same, and they all needed to rush over.
As long as you rush over, you can easily gather a large army to quell the rebellion with Zamp's reputation.
But they understand that it is not that easy to rush over.
The enemy's troops are far stronger than them, and they are waiting for their hard work.
They escaped all the way, and they were trapped and hungry, how much combat power could they have?
Therefore, they sincerely hoped that the Tubo cavalry ahead would not be rebels.
What should be faced eventually has to face. Songtsen Gampo slowly controlled himself and immediately stepped forward, and the guards also stepped forward, all of them ready to charge at any time.
As the distance continued to shorten, Songtsen Gampo finally saw the person opposite clearly.
The cavalry on the opposite side are really Tubo people!
Moreover, he was also familiar with the general who led the troops. He was Lu Dongzan's eldest son Geerqinling.
If Lu Dongzan sent someone to greet him, it shouldn’t be Gerqinling! Because Gerqinling is not qualified!
He also discovered that this army was completely the private army of the Geer family!
Geerqinling led the private army of the Geer family, and when he thought of the broken stones and arrow rain on the hill just now, everything seemed to be clear.
After seeing who was the general who led the troops, Songtsen Gampo's heart was slowly sinking.
"Qinling, why are you here?" Songtsen Gample asked in a deep voice by stopping his war horse.
