Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 1393: Get help from the gods and chase after the poor! (Thanks to the black and red Meifang’s Wan…
"Report~!"
"General, the Turkic wolves have reached twenty miles from the east gate! There are about 20,000 people!"
Three miles to the east of Shuofang City, in the bushes next to the official road, a cavalry galloped towards this side, and then quickly dismounted and hugged Chai Shao who was hiding in it.
Chai Shao's spirit was shocked, and he was a little excited when he heard the words: "Okay! Jie Li did not disappoint the general! Can you recognize who the leader is?"
"Going back to the general, the enemy general is Ashina Sheergui. A few years ago, the Turks invaded the border of Datang, and his subordinates went north with General Qin to fight the enemy. I have seen him!"
The soldier replied with a fist.
Ashnasheer, also known as Ashinasheer, a Turkic noble, was originally the second son of Chuluo Khan. At the age of eleven, he was known for his wisdom and bravery, and his archery skills. Tuoshe (tribal leader), set up a Yaqi (a flag decorated with ivory as a flag for the general or leader) in Mobei, and Jieli Khan’s son Yugushe ruled Tiele, Huihe, and Tongluo respectively. Waiting for the tribe. Ashina Sheeryi used a loose policy to retreat and support the people. He was an official for ten years without levying taxes. There was a saying: "The tribe is rich, and it is enough for me."
"It turned out to be Ashina Sheergui? Good! Today, the general avenged Shubao's revenge of the year! You, go and explore again and report again!"
After hearing that Jie Li had sent a heavyweight general like Ashina Sheerhui to rescue Liang Shidu, Chai Shao was not afraid, but became more excited, and he quickly ordered the scout.
In the 6th year of Wude, the Turks invaded the border of the Tang Dynasty. Qin Qiong accompanied the Qin King Li Shimin at the time and led his army north to resist the Turks. In one battle, Qin Qiong accidentally got into a siege, and the Turkic general at the time was wise and brave. The famous Turkic general, Ashina Sheergui, is known for his unparalleled archery skills.
Although he was caught in a heavy siege, it was naturally impossible for Qin Qiong to dismount and accept surrender. In the melee between the two sides, Ashina Sheer looked at the timing and shot Qin Qiong's heart with one arrow. Had it not been for Han Tianhu to give up his life to rescue, Qin Qiong might have died in the battle in the six years of Wude! But even so, one of Han Tianhu's leg was disabled because of an arrow injury!
So, Chai Shao is now saying that he is helping Qin Qiong to avenge his revenge, rather than helping Han Tianhu to avenge him!
"Yes! General!"
The sergeant led away immediately.
Chai Shao ordered left and right: "Turkic reinforcements are here, order the three armies to prepare for battle!"
"Here~!"
Left and right officials led the orders.
It has been six days since the army arrived outside Shuofang City. In these six days, many things have happened.
First of all, the crops in the farmland outside Shuofang city have all been trampled by the cavalry led by Xue Wanjun. The Liang division is all overwhelmed and exhausted, so send troops to clean them, fearing that there will be a large army of Tang army behind. , But don't send troops, you can only watch the crops being destroyed in a mess.
At the end of the day, the people in the city were panicked. After all, the city of Shuofang today has become a "dead city". The city gates are closed by Master Liang, and all the crops outside the city are trampled on and trapped inside the city, which means Sooner or later they will be starved to death, and Tang's army is lurking outside the city. Although this incident has not been confirmed, it is already a fact that everyone knows and tacitly accepts!
Seeing that the people in the city are getting more and more fierce, they have to send people in the city to announce the news that the reinforcements of the Liang Kingdom will arrive soon, and send soldiers to go out of the city and ask for help from Jie Li Khan on the grassland. .
Although Li Xiaogong's troops noticed the soldiers sent by Liang Shidu to ask for help, they did not stop it, because one of the purposes of the imperial court this time was to seduce the Turks and send troops!
On the afternoon when the Liangshidu sent troops to ask for help, Li Xiaogong led the main force to surround Shuofang City. Seeing Tang army besieged the city on all sides, the people, gentry, and officials in the city were even more panicked.
At the same time, if Liu Min, the governor of Xiazhou, had sent hundreds of spies into the city before, suddenly they "struck force" together, and all kinds of rumors arose in the city, such as: How many rumors were robbed by Liang Shidu's son After drinking, Minnyu and Liang Shi all occupied ten court ladies in the palace, and afterwards all those court ladies were thrown into the snake pond to feed snakes by the queen. Liang Shi all took refuge in the Turks for their own glory, and Liang Shi all took the wives of officials.
All kinds of rumors, whether they are true or false, are all spread in a pattern, just like the truth! As a result, Master Liang’s public reputation in the Liang Kingdom fell again and again. Master Liang also wanted to spot those Tang spies who spread rumors, but he didn’t have that energy at all, because now many people have appeared in the city. The violent incident against the government is more serious. There are no soldiers mutiny in the army. Although all those mutinies have been ruthlessly suppressed, the military spirit has been shaken. At this time, if you are careless, you will lose everything.
So Master Liang didn't dare to act lightly. He could only win over some high-ranking generals. Xu Zhiyi used high-ranking officials and wealthy beauties. But if this kind of win-win is true, only God knows. !

"Drive~!"
"Boom boom boom!"
After waiting for about an hour, at the place where Chai Shao's army was lurking, I finally heard the sound of horseshoes coming from a distance.
Chai Shao's expression was extremely tense, he instructed the left and right to say: "The order goes on, after the Turkic army enters our pockets, prepare for tripping! Next is the archer preparation! Finally the cavalry charge!"
"Yes! General!"
The left and right generals led away.
"Boom boom boom!"
The sound of horseshoes is getting closer, and the Tang generals lying in the bushes on both sides of the official road can already faintly feel that the earth is shaking!
Twenty feet, fifteen feet, ten feet, five feet, three feet, the Turkic wolf riders didn’t realize anything was wrong, the whole team was still running at a super high speed because they were coming The news that Shuofang city was surrounded by the Tang army had been learned on the road. They must rush to Shuofang city before Shuofang city was breached, so they had to use the fastest speed!
"Get up!"
"Swish swish!"
I don't know who yelled loudly, and dozens of tripping horses were suddenly pulled up on both sides of the road. The Turkic army was caught off guard, and the front one-third of the vanguard was suddenly tripped and turned over!
When the cavalry behind was running at such a high speed, it was impossible to slow down and avoid them. They were all placed like dumplings one by one, and they were carried in the pile of meat in front of them!
"There is an ambush! There is an ambush! Order the cavalry behind to slow down immediately!"
The Turkic general, Ashina Sheer, flew off his horse and jumped off his horse at a critical time. At this moment, he stood still and quickly shouted.
But in this state, the Turkic wolf rider wants to slow down completely at once. How easy is it to say? The powerful inertia caused batches of cavalry to fall on the soldiers who were tripped to the ground before. After all the four thousand leading troops of Ashina Sherri fell, the army finally stopped!
Ashna Sheergui looked at the mountain of corpses of Turkic cavalry in front of him. Although he felt distressed, he knew that it was not the time to be sentimental. He quickly commanded the army and set up a new formation!
At this moment, the bushes on the right side of the road suddenly stood up from thousands of Tang Jun archers and crossbowmen. They bent their bows and set up their arrows, all in one go, and then aimed directly in the direction of the Turkic army!
"Not good! Disperse the formation! Everyone is on the horse! Go!"
Ashna Sheer's complexion changed, and he quickly ordered.
His command is supposed to be okay, but it was a little late, Chai Shao waved his hand, and suddenly a rain of arrows struck toward the Turkic army!
"Hoooooo~! Pooh~!"
The sound of the rain of arrows, the sound of arrows entering the flesh, are endless, and the wailing of countless Turkic soldiers resounded in the Turkic camp!
"Flush! Get rid of their archers!"
Ashina Sheergui swung a knife away from the arrows flying towards him, and led the cavalry around him, biting his head and charging towards Tang Jun’s crossbowmen!
Because he knew that at this distance, Tang Jun would definitely have to be shot from behind by Tang Jun. He could only bite the bullet and crush Tang Jun’s archer team before he could face Tang Jun in a decisive battle and have a ray of life!
At this time, the "relentlessness" in the Turkic people's bones is manifested. Although many Turkic soldiers still have feather arrows in their bodies, they still follow Ashina Sheer sternly and rush towards the Tang army. , Even if the blood stained their clothes, they still didn't care!
The Turkic wolf cavalry is indeed a well-known elite cavalry, well-deserved!
Chai Shao's gaze sinks slightly, even as an opponent, he still has to admire the cavalry opposite!
He stretched out his right hand, just about to give orders to the left and right, ordering the cavalry behind Tang Jun to charge, a strange scene that everyone hadn't expected appeared!
I saw that the sun was shining and the sky was clear the moment before. At this moment, the sky suddenly became darker and darker, and soon I could not see my fingers!
Faced with the weird scene, not only the Turkic cavalry was greatly panicked, but even Tang Jun also appeared in a commotion!
At the first moment, everyone was at a loss!
The Turkic offensive paused for a while, and the military order Chai Shao wanted to pass down also paused!
"Don’t panic, this is God helping us Datang! The archer obeyed the order and gave me a fierce shot in the direction of the Turkic people! The rest of the soldiers, tripping the horse to prepare, let all the Turkic people carry to the generals. Dismount!"
Although the celestial phenomenon is weird, but at the critical moment, Chai Shao quickly settled down. He had an idea, and suddenly he had a plan. So luckily, he shouted loudly.
Not only did Tang Jun hear his shouting, but also the Turks on the opposite official road!
Chai Shao's idea is very simple, that is, now that the sky is suddenly completely dark and your army can't see it, then your Turkic cavalry can't see it either! He shouted that in the dark environment, the Turkic people could not see the surroundings. They must be afraid of the stumbling horses on the ground. They would not dare to charge here any more. The archer could take the opportunity to move towards the original Turkic at this time. There will be more volleys in the direction where the people are coming!
Otherwise, if Tang Jun’s cavalry went to rush into the battle in this dark environment, they would most likely injure themselves by mistake, and the outcome would be difficult to predict! The gain is not worth the loss!
Sure enough, in this kind of invisible environment, when Chai Shao said that there were still horses on the ground, the Turkic wolf rider immediately threw the rodents, and involuntarily slowed the speed of the horse. After all, the horses just now have caused the Turkic army to lose three or four thousand. People!
The Turkic side slowed down the horse speed, but the Tang Jun archer side did not stop at all. Although they didn’t understand when Chai Shao had hidden the horse sling beside the official road, at this time, they just obeyed the order and faced. The Turkic cavalry fired in the original direction!
(Actually, all of Tang Jun’s stumbling horses are in ambush on the official road. There is no one on either side of the official road. Chai Shao is completely deliberately fooling the Turkic people)
Although they can't see people, they still remember the general direction. They only need to shoot in that direction. Anyway, there are many Turks, and they can definitely shoot!
"咻咻咻~!"
In the dark night, countless rain of arrows rushed towards the Turkic army. At this time, the Turkic people had stumbling horses in front of them, which made them afraid to sprint at full speed, but if they turned to escape, in this dark environment, He must hit his comrades in arms, and Tang Jun is likely to shoot him into a hornet's nest!
A dilemma!
At this time, the Turkic army is really in a dilemma!
"Retreat~! The whole army retreats~! The rear army becomes the former army, the former army becomes the rear army, all retreat!"
Tang Jun "closed his eyes", and after several rounds of volleys, the Turkic army suffered heavy casualties. Why did he close his eyes? Because you can't see your fingers right now, aren't those archers shooting arrows with their eyes closed?
Ashna Sheergui knew that in this state, the Turkic army was completely unable to fight against the Tang army. He didn’t know what "demon trick" Tang army used to make the sky suddenly turn black, but even this It was dawn again, and he could not beat Tang Jun with these remnants of defeated generals! It's better to act decisively and decisively order to retreat, so as to save some vitality, and make a comeback after returning!
Naturally, there was a messenger who conveyed the order of Ashina Sheergui, and the Turkic army immediately changed its formation, leaving behind a corpse in one place, and then fleeing toward the official road far away, feeling the dark and relying on memory!
Hearing that the Turks are about to flee, Chai Shao is in a hurry. Bows and arrows have a range. If the Turks escape the range, then he will be completely lost! But in this dark environment, if he rashly lets the cavalry chase him, not only will he not be able to chase him, but it is very likely that the cavalry will stumble themselves because they can't see the road!
At this moment, a magical scene appeared!
A corner of the sun suddenly appeared above the sky~IndoMTL.com~ Then, the exposed part of the sun grew bigger and bigger, and soon the sky was bright again!
From night to dawn, the strong sunlight made everyone uncomfortable. Chai Shao blindfolded his eyes and slowly, after adapting to the strong sunlight outside, he shouted: "The soldiers of the three armies listen to orders! Get on the horse! Chase!"
"Here~!"
Tang Jun's generals all promised loudly. After a while, Chai Shao led thirty thousand elites and chased them towards Ashina Sheer!
It is said that the poor will not chase after them, but he must chase these defeated Turkic soldiers today!
