At such a critical time, of course Li Ye would not be absent. He and Shangguan Qingcheng looked westward with deep eyes.
Right now, the situation in the west of the Black Khanate is chaotic, and the Dashi army is retreating in an all-round way. Their blockade and control of various cities and places have either been completely lost, or they are no longer as tight as before. After being suppressed for a period of time, they were finally able to show up on a large scale.
They seized this opportunity, quickly got in touch with the Datang army, and sent back the latest information from various places in time. Many people even mixed in with the refugee team and went west with the Dashi army. The purpose was to observe the other party's details. See if you can get any useful information.
Therefore, when Li Ye and Shangguan Qingcheng were still discussing how to attack Nasepo City, they learned that there were a large number of Guards soldiers gathered there, and they were well-disciplined and orderly, and there was no panic that a rout should have. elephant.
On the contrary, it seemed to be preparing for a battle, with a strong momentum.
"The Dashi Guards are indeed the real elite. After experiencing the disastrous defeat of Hulun City and the defeat of Axu City, they have lost so much combat power, but they have not completely lost their energy. It’s really rare to cheer up.”
Li Ye smiled softly, and he was not stingy with his appreciation. He has fought in the battlefield for many years, and he also respects the real strong army.
Nearly 100,000 Spike Army marched westward from Taros, trying to cut off the way for the Guards to retreat. With the True God of the Crescent Sect, it was impossible to hide this action from Mullen. The Spike Army's raid this time was not a conspiracy from the very beginning, but an upright battle, relying on real combat power.
Now that Mullen saw that the guards were about to be bitten by the Spikes and could not retreat safely, he simply asked the Guards to stop and prepare for a battle with the Spikes, which was a logical decision. It was beyond Li Ye's and Shangguan Qingcheng's expectations.
The only question is, how the opponent intends to fight.
"Being passive is worse than taking the initiative to attack. If you can grasp the initiative on the battlefield, you can advance or retreat. As long as you leave room, even if the battle goes wrong, you can still avoid a big defeat." Shangguan Qingcheng said sharply.
If it was an ordinary war, the Spike Army would not hesitate in the slightest. Even if the enemy army resisted, they would charge straight to it and use their combat power to directly crush the opponent's morale and achieve their strategic goals.

But the Dashi Guards were different. In the first battle of the city, the Tiger Guards exhausted their means and relied on the convenience of the defenders to finally defeat the opponent. Even if the Spike Army is more powerful, it can't be careless.
This is not to say that the Spike Army will suffer a serious defeat when they attack, but that if they do not take various factors into consideration and make comprehensive arrangements, even if they win, the casualties of soldiers will not be small.
In the battle of Talas, the Spike Army suffered enough losses. Neither Li Ye nor Shangguan Qingcheng wanted this elite team to lose too much combat power before Dashi was completely captured.
Li Ye nodded slightly and said: "Generally speaking, Ma Lun's tactics are nothing more than three types: block, counter attack, and ambush.
If you rely on Nasepo City to stop the attack, you just want to hold back the Spike Army so that other troops can withdraw safely;
"If it's a counter attack, it's trying to beat back the Spike Army by surprise, so as to win the battlefield and facilitate the follow-up operations; if it's an ambush, it's thinking of destroying the Spike Army, and we must concentrate all the elites to completely eliminate the most elite of the Tang Dynasty. teacher."
Speaking of this, Li Ye pondered for a while.
No matter what the opponent's plan is, the Spike Army
It is necessary to attack, and it will be detrimental to future wars if the guards do not swallow more of their combat power before they return to the big food.
Moreover, the offensive could not be delayed. If the Spike Army did not attack, time would pass and many Dashi troops would retreat safely, including some guards.
And once the opponent figured it out, the Spike Army wanted to wait for the Tiger Guard Army and Habayashi Army to follow up before attacking together, and the Seba City army would immediately retreat. At that time, the effect of blocking will be achieved before the blocking war takes place.
"One hour, I'll give you one hour to investigate the situation around Nasepo City, find out the opponent's military deployment, and see if there is any ambush." Li Ye issued an order to the big monks, "In addition, fight our A secret signal, so that all the monks in the western region trading houses who are active in the vicinity will come to report their information."
This order is no different from asking the big monks to go out to fight the big monk head-on. Moreover, they are required to detect the enemy's military situation during the battle. The task can be described as onerous.
The war situation has developed to the present, and Datang has achieved a comprehensive victory in the Black Khanate. Not only the scouts, but also many big monks are chasing forward. After all, they have high cultivation bases and strong feet. .
In this situation, the major cultivators often contribute one force, which can achieve the damage of three forces in the past. Li Ye has no reason to let go of such a good opportunity. So now there are a lot of big Tang monks in the vicinity, and their combat power is very strong.
The monks took orders to go.
The Spike Army took advantage of this hour to rest and prepare before the battle. Not to mention their armor and robes, they needed to eat what they needed to eat and drink what they needed to drink. It's time to take it.
"In fact, no matter how many guards are in front of us, what kind of arrangements and goals they have, for the Spike Army, there is only one way to attack." Li Ye said to Shangguan Qingcheng, "However, to know yourself and the enemy, you must made."
Attacks also have different purposes and tactics.
Shangguan Qingcheng said: "The Spike Army can not only march forward bravely, but also adapt to various tactics. Your Majesty can rest assured that even if there are two hundred thousand Dashi guards in front of you, I can advance and retreat freely."
When she said this, the setting sun in the afternoon hit her armor, shining brightly, and the autumn wind blew her cloak, making her look stunning.
Li Ye laughed silently and happily, with such a general and army, no matter what kind of battle situation he faced, he didn't have to worry about it.
An hour later, the Spike Army launched an attack on Nasipau City.
During this hour, the great monk of Tang Dynasty and the great monk of Dashi engaged in a fierce battle over Nasebo City. Because the former attacked fiercely, both sides suffered a lot of casualties.
Correspondingly, the big monks of the Tang Dynasty also went to the area that they had not explored before, but the big monks on the other side were determined to fight and blocked tenaciously.
As for the monks in the Western Regions around here, because one hour is too short, only three groups of people appeared, and they did not give very valuable information.
However, there are so many big food monks here, which has already made Li Ye and Shangguan Qingcheng care about it.
After the Spike Army ran outside Nasebo City, they saw that the Guards had already left the city, and formed a formation across Dumoshui. At a glance, the opponent's army formation is fortified, no matter whether it is width or thickness, there is no end in sight. It seems that what is on the other side of Dumo water is not some soldiers, but the black ocean.
The Battle of Talas, let the Dashi army know about Spike
The power of the crossbow in the army, so facing them now, the Dashi army does not want to hide in the city and be covered by arrow rain, which is extremely bad for morale, they would rather go out of the city to fight.
But Dumoshui is much wider than the Taros River. With this favorable location, the Spike Army must pay a price if they want to rush over.
On the left and right, there are Dashi troops who are constantly retreating and fleeing to Nasepo City, like migrating sheep or frightened birds. Everyone bypassed this place far away, lest they would be drawn into the battlefield by the Spike Army and the Guards and lose their lives.
Dumoshui is wider than the Taros River, with an average of one or two hundred steps, and the depth can easily submerge people and horses, and there is no beach for forced crossing.
However, when the Tang army confronts the Dashi army, the first method must be a strong bow and crossbow. This is the advantage that Datang has always had.
The Spike Army lined up on the east bank of Dumoshui, after calculating the distance, the soldiers dismounted, tens of thousands of strong crossbows began to flash, and shot the arrows like meteor showers into the opposing army's formation.
They are still some distance away from the river surface, ensuring that they will not be shot by the crossbows of the Dashi army. Using the range advantage of their bows and crossbows, they unilaterally attack the Dashi Guards. The soldiers of the Dashi Guards raised their round shields , Protecting the whole body with a light shield.
However, the shields in the world can block a single blow from a spear, but there is no reason why they cannot block a thousand blows from a spear, and they will be damaged sooner or later. The Chang'an Imperial Army has sufficient crossbow arrows, which is another advantage for them.
After the crossbow arrows continued to cover the battle formation of the Guards for an hour, due to the difference in cultivation level, many of the light shields in the Guards were broken. Vacancies, large and small, appeared in the array.
Although the Spike Army's crossbows are convenient to launch, they also consume the strength of the monks. It is impossible to keep shooting for a few days. Now it depends on whether the Guards can survive before the strength of the Wolf Fang Army monks is exhausted. exist.
Li Ye looked at this boring scene in mid-air, and couldn't help feeling a little itchy. If he could, he would really like to go forward with a gun, single-handedly overthrow a large group of Guards soldiers, kill a bloody path in the battle, and open up a way for the Spike Army to advance.
He has this strength. Even if there are many great monks on the other side, there is no shortage of real people behind him. But right now he really can't do that, and he is not afraid of Mullen. In the sudden battle in the city, the other party was injured and it is not so easy to heal, and even if the other party comes, it may not be able to stop him.
What he has to take into account now is the battle situation in the Immortal Realm, to prevent the True God of the New Moon Sect from attacking him at any time, so all his cultivation is in the Immortal Realm, and the mortal body is the cultivation of an ordinary real person, and there is no strength that can be exploited by one person .
The unilateral bow and crossbow suppression of the Spike Army did not last long, and the Dashi Guards soon dispatched a force that could threaten the Spike Army.
What moved was not the battle formation of the Guards by the Dumoshui River.
The big monk reported that a large number of Guards soldiers rushed out of the mountains on the left flank, tens of thousands of them at most, judging from their course of action, they planned to encircle the Spike Army in a detour!
As for the Guards soldiers on the other side of the Dumoshui River, flying carpets began to appear under their feet.
With the flying carpet, the river can't hinder them.
Obviously, the opponent is relying on the advantages of water and land, and then using the advantage of numbers, to trap the Spike Army here! Once the fine cavalry can't gallop and the combat power is greatly reduced, the Guards will have a chance to gather and annihilate the Spike Army.
Faced with such a change, Li Ye and Shangguan Qingcheng both looked as usual. If they dared to appear in Dumoshui to fight against the guards, they would not have no countermeasures for this situation.
