Chapter 3277 Turks Attack
Fang Jun asked anxiously: "Are they Turks or Arabs?"
If the Turks came first and the Arabs arrived later, the plan would be considered successful, and Wei Ying would be credited with a great contribution when he turned back. If the Arabs came first and the Turks arrived later, then the Turks would have been cunning enough to realize that something was not right. , it is very likely that he will escape immediately, then wait for Wei Ying to come back and skin him!
The scout shook his head and said: "The distance is too far. We dare not get close to avoid being noticed by the enemy, so we can't see clearly."
Fang Jun nodded and said: "It's okay, let's explore again and report back!"
"Here!"
The scout stood up and left quickly.
Fang Jun turned around and said to Pei Xingjian and others: "Gather the soldiers and prepare for battle!"
"Here!"
The left and right generals quickly dispersed with their respective troops and went to organize soldiers in their respective armies to prepare for battle. For a moment, the entire hillside was filled with snow and shadows, and murderous intent was filled with silence!
Twenty thousand people were squatting in the snow and almost freezing, hoping extremely fervently that the enemy troops would arrive quickly so that they could fight a passionate battle. Even if they died on the battlefield, it would be much better than freezing to death here...
< br>
Therefore, after hearing that he was ready to fight, his morale immediately increased.
When the preparations were completed, all 20,000 people were hiding on the hillside, using the cover of trees, rocks, and snow to silently watch the camps in the ravines below the mountain.
Several wind lanterns hung on the flagpole of the camp, swaying in the cold wind and heavy snow, with a little orange glow.
The world was desolate.
*****
Outside Alagou, five thousand Turkic cavalry arrived in the wind and snow. When they arrived at the mouth of the ditch, the entire army temporarily stopped. Ashina Helu sat on the horseback, letting the wind and snow hit his face, and listened carefully to the scouts' continuous transmission. message back.
"The army of the Tang Dynasty was stationed in the ditch, with military camps in a row."
"There are Tang Army scouts appearing around, and they may have discovered traces of our army!"
"There was no sound inside the Tang Army camp, with only the guards patrolling and guarding."
……
News came back one after another, and the situation in the ditch was already under Ashina Helu's control.
Ashina Helu stroked the beard on his chin, squinting a little suspiciously.
It seemed that the Youtun Guards had no idea about the arrival of the Turks, and they actually put the camp in Alagou to avoid the wind and snow. But why does this situation where everything goes smoothly always make him feel frightened, thinking that things that go too smoothly are often not a good thing?
If it were another army, that would be fine. Ashina Helu wouldn't take it seriously, but this is the Youtun Guard! The soldiers came out of Baidao to overthrow Xue Yantuo, the great battle of pulling out the valley defeated Tuyuhun, and the feats were so impressive that they shocked the world. In the face of such a powerful army in this world, who dares to say that he will win easily?
Don't even dare to be careless in the slightest.
Tumidul, who was beside him, stepped forward and said: "It seems that the Youtun Guards have no idea that we have come, but the soldiers are very fast. If we delay, the Youtun Guards scouts will definitely notice. If the Youtun Guards are prepared, with the power of their firearms, even if the general can annihilate them, he will have to pay a huge price. It will be difficult to explain to the Khan after he returns..."
This sentence immediately struck Ashina Helu's heart, causing his eyebrows to suddenly rise.
Although he is a Turkic general, he is a direct descendant of the previous Khan Yugushe. Yibi Shekui contacted various Turkic ministries to depose Yugushe and established himself as the Turkic Khan, hoping to kill Yugushe. Yugushe fled all the way to Tocharo, and only after receiving the support of the Anxi army did he stand up.
Ashinahelu fell into the hands of Yibi Shekui Khan and wanted to kill him. Later, thanks to the joint guarantees of many tribal leaders, he was able to save his life and was appointed as a Turkic general to take charge of the army.
He naturally knew that Yibishekui's wariness against him had never been eliminated, and because he took refuge in Yibishekui Khan, Yugushe regarded him as a traitor and wanted to kill him.
It makes you no longer human inside and outside...
If he really lost his troops in Alagou, how could Yibishegui Khan, who had been eager to catch him and put him to death, let go of such a crime?
You know, his men are all the most elite warriors in the Turks today!
Tu Midu's words immediately woke him up.
Although he intended to use this battle to consume the power of the Yibi Shegui Khan, he did not dare to seriously lose too much, otherwise he would definitely be killed...
He looked at Tumidu with gratitude and said: "It's me who is indecisive! Thank you Khan for your kindness. I accept it in my heart, and it will be rewarded in the future. This time, Khan will guard the mouth of the ditch as the rear of my palace, and watch me lead Erlang rushed in and made an unparalleled achievement!"
Tu Midu patted his chest vigorously on horseback, with a generous look on his face: "General, don't worry, as long as there is still a Huihe man here, we will ensure that the rear line is safe!"
Ashina Helu laughed loudly, full of ambition, raised his scimitar high, and said loudly: "My sons, the time has come to make contributions! In front of us is the Tang Army's famous Youtun Guard, and we only need to defeat it with one blow. , the honor of being the strongest army in the world belongs to us! I just ask you, do you dare to charge into battle with me, will you die?"
Turks may not be so fearless of death, but they are easily agitated and their blood boils. They don't think too much about it when they are impulsive, because their brains are obviously not strong enough.
After hearing Ashina Helu's highly inflammatory words, one or two of the Turkic cavalry behind them were so excited that their faces were red and their blood was surging. They shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The sound shook the world.
Ashina Helu yelled: "Charge!"
With a pinch on the horse's belly, the horse neighed loudly, hooves tumbling, and rushed towards the Alagou ahead.
Thousands of Turkic cavalry roared and screamed, their horns whined, and they charged after Ashina Helu. For a moment, thousands of horses galloped, the color of the sky and the earth changed, and the north wind swept the snowflakes, which were stirred up by this momentum. The ground shook slightly.
Tumidu watched the thousands of troops in front of him charging unstoppably into Alagou. He raised his hands with a cold face and ordered: "Listen to the Uighurs, immediately dismount and join the formation, with spears outside, swords and shields in the middle, and archers inside. ! ”
The order was issued, but the two thousand Huihe people around him looked confused.
This type of infantry phalanx can only be effective when facing cavalry. Although the Tang army has cavalry, they are in the Alagou at the moment. How can they break out in the face of the Turks' surprise attack?
But after being stunned for a moment, he quickly dismounted and took over the battle, not daring to disobey the Khan's order.
When Tumidu saw his tribesmen arrayed on horseback, his face suddenly darkened. He waved the whip in his hand and shouted: "Rebellion! Rebel!"
There was a sudden chaos on the Huihe battlefield, and everyone was at a loss.
Shouldn't the array be facing away from the mouth of the ditch to prevent the Tang army from attacking from the rear? There were thousands of Turkic cavalry charging and attacking in the ditch. How could there be Tang troops rushing out?
Tumidu was very angry and shouted: "A bunch of idiots! Just listen to what I say. Arrange quickly and point your spearhead at the mouth of the ditch. If anyone rushes out of the ditch, kill them without mercy. No one is allowed to be killed." Rush through my Huihe position!”
"Ah!"
Only then did the tribesmen suddenly realize.
How is this helping the Turks to fight against the Tang people? It was clear that the Khan secretly joined forces with the Tang people to trick the Turks!
This is great to hear!
Although ordinary Uighurs cannot understand the benefits and losses of which side they stand on, the Uighurs are deeply enslaved by the Turks and yearn for the civilized, wealthy and powerful Han people. They are naturally close to the Han people, so they are attracted to Tumidu. Not only did he not resist the order, but he was even more interested!
Mother!
There was an ambush by the Tang people in the front, and we Uighurs cut off the retreat in the back. The Turks were like turtles in a urn... Brutal and rampant Turks, how are you today? !
We have been bullied by the Turks for decades. They have always treated us Uighurs like livestock and killed them at every turn. Today I want you to have a taste of the power of our Uighurs!
Every Uighur felt the same hatred of the enemy, and the array was quickly formed. Everyone stared at the Alagou, clenching the swords and guns in their hands, waiting for the Turks to fall into the ambush of the Tang people and then escape in embarrassment, giving the Turks Someone be tough!
……
Ashina Helu charged forward when he entered the ditch, but soon after being surrounded by his own soldiers, he gradually fell behind. Countless Turkic warriors around them stared with anger and excitement, desperately urging their horses to rush along the narrow valley in the ditch.
Horse hooves trampled the snow, and the charging troops were like a dragon emerging from the ground, rushing forward under the rising snowflakes and ice foam, and the rumbling cry shook the entire ravine, as dull as thunder.
Not far ahead, the guards in front of the Tang army's camp saw the Turkic cavalry charging like a tide in the dark. They didn't even have time to enter the camp, so they dropped their weapons and ran towards the mountains on both sides, trying to avoid the unstoppable Turks. charge.
Naturally, the Turks didn't care about this. They only saw the few wind lanterns hanging on the flagpole. According to the custom of the Tang army, under the flagpole, the Chinese army was located!
"Kill, kill, kill!"
In an instant, the Turkic cavalry rushed into the Tang army's camp like a tide, becoming unstoppable. (End of chapter)
