Chapter 384

No matter what conspiracies Ye Chang has, he has no time to perform at present.

Ziad did not want Yuan'en's stupidity to ruin his plan. He needed to observe the real combat effectiveness of the Tang army under Ye Chang's command in a real fierce battle, rather than watching the Shi Guoren and the Ge Luolu people deal with themselves with little thoughts in a farce.

The troops in the river were pushing forward noisy, and the Grolu people were blocked by him. When they retreated halfway, they had to be carried away and rushed towards the Tang army again.

"ha"

Seeing this scene, Li Siye smiled hoarsely, and turned to his subordinates: "Are you afraid, are you afraid?"

"What's the terrible thing about the mob?"

"Then kill them all and avenge the brothers who fell outside Talas"

"Revenge, revenge, revenge"

The Tang army roared, and the weapons in their hands were trembling, and the heads of each team came out with a sword.

"It's still the same, the Six Flower Formation, the Six Flower Formation... The Tang people did not learn from the lessons outside the city of Talas," Ziad thought with satisfaction.

Although the Tang people set up the Six Flower Formation and killed the mobs of the countries in the river to the point of falling flowers and flowing water, in Chiad's eyes, this Six Flower Formation is much worse than the battle formation they learned from Byzantine. If that is the case, then he would still have full confidence in the decisive battle with the Tang army tomorrow.

For the soldiers of the Hezhong countries, the Six Flower Formation was an extremely terrifying impact formation. Under the leadership of the leaders of each team, the Tang army penetrated into the army of the Hezhong countries like a meat grinder. After dozens of steps forward, the coalition forces of the Hezhong countries blocked the Tang army with their advantage in numbers.

The bows and arrows on the top of the city were like rain, and blood blades were everywhere under the city. Li Siye was the first to come. The Mo sword in his hand was specially made, heavier than the ordinary Mo sword. Only a person with such great strength could be able to operate like the wind. People from all over the world, whether ordinary soldiers or generals wearing armor, could not stop his long sword alone, either being chopped to death or being smashed to death.

"Call him, shoot him to death, shoot them to death." Yuan En shouted wildly. He didn't dare to go forward, but just whistled behind him.

His voice came into Li Siye's ears. Li Siye looked up and vaguely recognized the person's appearance. He immediately shouted and rushed towards him with a knife. The guards bent their bows and shot randomly without distinguishing between enemies and us. The soldiers around Li Siye raised their shields to protect him and covered his body. Even so, a few arrows were hung on his armor.

Fortunately, the armor was protected by it, and the silk clothes were lined with it. The barbs on the arrow did not penetrate deep into the body, which did not affect Li Siye's battle very much.

"There are fewer troops..." Li Siye was also a little tired at this time, and he thought to himself.

But this is also impossible. The place outside the city of Tsai Jiancheng is not too spacious. The military formation of 5,000 people is already a bit narrow.

"Order, cavalry attack." On the city wall, Ye Chang found that the charge of the Tang army seemed to decline, and immediately ordered.

This is already a stalemate. He must use the cavalry as a reserve team first, because this is not a decisive battle, so he can take advantage of the more he can get.

The drums suddenly stopped at the top of the city, replaced by the sound of a horn. With this horn, about five hundred cavalry appeared on the flank of the coalition forces of the various countries in the river, opposite a stream outside the city.

Ziad immediately noticed this small cavalry, because of the equipment of this cavalry, which made him alert.

The horses riding by these cavalry were slightly different from the horses he had seen before. They were taller and stronger, and looked like the good horses of the Pahan. It is said that in the legend of the Tang Dynasty, the horses of the Pahan were called "Dayuan Liang Horses", and there were even sweat-blooded BMWs. These Dayuan horses were tall and strong, and were not inferior to the war horses riding by the Byzantine knights.

Moreover, these five hundred horsemen now look a bit like the Byzantine knights.

Their bodies were covered with heavy armor, and even their war horses were covered with iron armor. They had many weapons in their hands, and now they were mechanical crossbows. Ziard had seen such weapons. Although the range of this short crossbow that was fired in his hands was not far, they could also carry out long-range strikes.

In addition to the short crossbow, their horses were hung with a long spear called the horse lance by the Tang people, which was the main assault weapon of the Tang cavalry.

In addition, each knight had two crescent-shaped scimitars around his waist, and a small round shield was tied to their left arm.

The cost of such a heavily armed heavy cavalry is definitely not a small number. Perhaps only the wealthy Tang Dynasty can easily prepare for such a force.

"It's about five hundred cavalry, and it looks a little different. The cavalry was not placed behind their military formation, but outside the formation. During the battle, Ye Chang, who was circling around our flank, learned some lessons after learning 丨Assince it was a little harder to deal with than Gao Xianzhi. However, this can only be useful for the troops of the countries in the river. If our army was replaced, there would be no need for the elite Huluoshan, which was the army in my hands, and he would be able to hit his heavy armored knights and burst into blood."

"Let them retreat, rest for a night, and see us tomorrow." Ziad said: "Summon Yuanen, he has no effect here. Let him go back and organize food and grass for me - the battle with the Tang people. It seems that it will last for a while. Ye Chang is more difficult to deal with than Gao Xianzhi."

Only then did Ziyad truly firmly decide to drive Ye Chang out of the Hezhong area.

The Tang army showed its combat effectiveness in fighting with him. If they did not drive the Tang army out completely when they were in the upper hand, once he retreated, Ye Chang would inevitably seize Talas. Therefore, the Tang Anxi Legion must be severely damaged so that they will never dare to look west again.

Ziad's order was very timely. The five hundred cavalry had just begun to cross the river and set up their formation on the riverside. When they were preparing to charge, the Dashi Alliance began to shrink backwards. Originally, the five hundred cavalry were facing the side of the army of the various countries in the river, and as they contracted, they became sideways.

The heavy cavalry began to charge. When they were forty steps away from the enemy, they shot out the crossbow in their hands, then left the crossbow machine, grabbed the horse spear, and clamped it tightly under their arms. In almost a blink of an eye, they had already rushed into the army formations in the river.

Ziad looked at the place where they rushed into. The coalition forces of the various countries in the river seemed to have been stabbed obliquely, and a large gap appeared.

The heavy cavalry of the Tang people did not use the horse lances in their hands for too long. Soon they threw the horse lances and used a more convenient slash to slash. After cutting off a large piece of them from the coalition forces of the various countries in the river, they used the scimitar to kill them slanted.

If he had given the order to retreat later, he would have lost more troops. Although all the people who died were pagans in the river, Ziad did not feel sorry for him at all, but he was not willing to make the Tang people too arrogant.

"Carry a formation and fight." He ordered to the headquarters of Dashi.

Amid the shouts, the headquarters of the Dashi Army began to advance, and the retreating coalition forces of the various countries in the river separated from the two wings. Ziard glanced at the city of Shu Jiancheng. At this time, the young general of the Tang Kingdom should have stopped when he saw the opportunity, right?

The real war will only begin tomorrow. Of course, if the young Tang army general didn't know what to stop when he saw it, he would give him a painful and unforgettable lesson

"The enemy has retreated, we have the advantage. Zhongcheng, should we rush out?" At this time, someone in the city asked Ye Chang.

"Ming Jin, withdraw the troops and let Li Siye come back, so there is no need to chase after him." Ye Chang said: "Today's battle will even end here... Next, let's see that it's evening."

"night?"

"Yes, at night" Ye Chang narrowed his eyes and smiled.

When Li Siye heard the sound of the gongs withdrawing the troops in the city, he was still unwilling to do so, but he did not dare to disobey the order, so he had to come back with depression. The two armies broke off contact, and the Tang army took away all their casualties. Li Siye hurried to see Ye Chang.

"Zhongcheng, why don't you let the villain chase after him? The villain will definitely defeat the Dashi Army and avenge the previous shame"

"You have done a very good job, look over there." Ye Chang pointed outside the city.

Standing on the top of the city, he could see further. Li Siye followed Ye Chang's expectation and saw that the Great Cannibal had already arranged a military formation several miles away. In the vast land, if the Tang army chased him, he would have to fight the Great Cannibal. He had suffered such a struggle outside the city of Talas. Of course, he knew that if this was the case, even if he could win, the Tang army would suffer a lot.

"The great cannibals are prepared, but it is useless to pursue them. We have other plans. You can lead your troops to rest first. It won't take long to use you again."

Li Siye didn't dare to say anything, so he could only retreat slouch. If Ye Chang had treated him like this when Anxi first came, he would definitely ignore Ye Chang, but now it is different. His and Gao Xianzhi's defeat fell into Ye Chang's eyes, especially after the defeat, abandoning the army and absconding and hurting friendly forces, which made him unable to raise his head in front of Ye Chang.

You know, when they killed friendly forces and fled, Ye Chang led the army to go against the trend, blocking the tide of attacks of the Dashi Alliance, and even broke through the siege to rescue nearly 30,000 trapped soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

He got off the city and passed by the street, the street was noisy, and many craftsmen and soldiers were piled up wood. Li Siye took a look and felt something strange, so he looked for someone and asked, "What are you doing?"

"The Chief Secretary has an order to tie the wood into a fence and send it to the city tomorrow to serve as a baffle female wall to prevent the big cannibals from using stone throwing machines."

"This thing is used to block the stone throwing machine?" Li Siye thought about it for a moment. It might be useful, but judging from the density of those wooden fences, it is better to say it is wooden raft than a fence.

He shook his head. It was really unpredictable for Ye Zhongcheng to act.

"It seems like a hard fight..."

Li Siye had just left, and someone came over there with a flag. Judging from his appearance, he should be a big cannibal. He was single and slowly approached. The Tang army cavalry left outside quickly passed by and surrounded him. After a while, someone rushed back to the city and shouted under the city: "Zhongcheng, the envoy of the big cannibal army is here."

"How dare you send an envoy now?" Ye Chang was a little curious. He cut off two big food messengers who pretended to be a Shi people. Logically speaking, the big food messengers should know that he is not verbal, so why would he send an envoy to die?

"Let him talk under the city." Ye Chang said.

After a while, the envoy was taken to the city. He dismounted his horse, placed his hand in front of his chest, and bowed to Ye Chang on the city.

"Osama has seen the general of the Tang Dynasty." This guy could speak very fluent Chinese.

"What are you here for?" Ye Chang said: "Be simpler."

"I came on the order of General Ziyad. General Ziyad asked me to tell you that although the positions of both sides are different, Dashi and Datang have at least one thing in common, which is their respect for the warriors. On the battlefield of Talas, the bodies left by the Datang warriors were decently buried, and the injured were properly treated. I hope that Dashi can give Dashi equal treatment. If you can agree to this under the enlightenment of the True God, we will send a team of 200 people, without weapons, to come outside the Tak City to treat the wounded and transport the dead."

Ye Chang raised his eyebrows in surprise. Not only him, but also the Tang generals around him, also had the same expression.

General Dashi made this request, which was completely beyond their expectations.

Ye Chang pondered for a while, and he wanted to train the military doctors with these casualties from the coalition forces of various countries. However, there are still such materials, this time, let's agree to the other party.

"Go back and tell General Ziad that the Tang Dynasty is a country of benevolent and righteousness, and China is a country of etiquette. Since he treats him with courtesy, we will respond equally. He can send 300 people and our soldiers will protect their safety." Ye Chang said loudly: "But we will not return the prisoners."

"My master will definitely thank you for your kindness." Osama bowed again and saluted Ye Chang: "My master also said that it is his honor to be able to see your command skills and the warriors under his command today. He is looking forward to tomorrow to be able to confront you on the frontline."

This is an open battle, but Ziad's meaning is, of course, not a one-on-one fight between the two generals of the army, but rather a full-scale attack tomorrow. This is to some extent, it is also a demonstration to Ye Chang and put pressure on him.

These big cannibals can also play psychological warfare, but this trick is useless to Ye Chang. Ye Chang smiled slightly: "Does General Ziad really say that? You tell him, we will meet soon.

Osama bowed for the third time, then turned around and rode away. Ye Chang watched him go away. When he became a small dot, he raised his telescope.

In the telescope, Osama came to a small hill, led his horse up the mountain, and then saluted in front of a group of big bearded cannibals. One of them was asking him what he answered and pointed at him.

The bearded man also looked here, and Ye Chang could see clearly the expression on his face and was a little surprised.

The bearded man was Ziyad. He was surprised that Ye Chang agreed naturally. Another reason was that he saw the head of the city wall of Tsai Jian, and he didn't know what it was. He reflected the sunlight over, making him look a little dazzling.
