Thousand Miles of Bright Moonlight

Chapter 137: Sam Valley (repair)

Views:

The wind was raging, the sand was flying, and the birds almost disappeared. Only a few well-trained goshawks were not afraid of the strong wind and hovered over the valley for a long time.

Several Beirong soldiers hid behind the boulders on the mountain and looked into the distance. They were wearing gray leather jackets, and their bows and sabres, which might reflect light, were all tied with cloth strips, and they were almost integrated with the surrounding rocks. High-altitude goshawks also have difficulty finding them.

Beneath the mountains, a herd of bison drank water on the banks of a sheltered canyon.

The soldiers have been ambushing in the mountains for many days, and they can see the herd of wild bulls almost every day. One of the soldiers was so hungry that he took out a piece of dry milk and took two bites. The soldier beside him suddenly moved and said in a low voice: "The enemy army !"

Everyone immediately held their breath and looked towards the valley, only to see blurred outlines floating in the sand and dust in the vast sky. The tall sand and dust approached them. It was a cavalry in black armor. In the queue, black flags were hunting and flying.

The soldiers rushed down the mountain, flew on their horses, and reported the military situation to the camp.

Bei Rong didn't expect Wang Ting's army to come so quickly, but they were well prepared and did not rush. After a while, the horn sounded in the camp, and then there was a loud scream, and the eldest prince brought hundreds of them. A vanguard of cavalry archers who were good at raiding and riding and shooting rushed out of the camp in a mighty manner.

On a vast plain scoured by several rivers in the south of the Sam Valley, two cavalrymen quickly collided. The Beirong people recharged their energy and had plenty of horsepower. They launched a high-speed impact directly. The number was more than that of the Beirong cavalry, and without fear, they led the tribal warriors to meet them and fought fiercely.

The blade reflects the cold light in the dim yellow sky.

Facing the rushing formation of the Beirong cavalry, Mobido did not retreat, but whenever the soldiers were cowardly, he immediately roared to the soldiers to hold the formation. The Beirong cavalry attacked several times, but failed to tear their defenses and began to retreat. The left and right wings were separated from the two sides, and they wanted to encircle Mobido. Mobido led his personal guards to charge with a knife, allowing the team to close and shrink, avoiding several rounds of arrow rain from Beirong, and the whole team stretched, like a team. The nails were driven straight into the center of the Beirong battle formation.

After several rounds of fighting, the Beirong cavalry quickly retreated.

In the face-to-face confrontation between the two armies, retreating often affects morale and collapses across the board, which is extremely unwise.

Moviduo ordered his subordinates to form a formation again, his brown eyes glanced around, observed the surrounding terrain, gritted his teeth, and ordered the soldiers to pursue.

On a hill in the distance, a goshawk swooped down and stopped on Thamaroka's shoulder, its beak pecking at its wings.

Beside him, Bi Suo drove his horse a few steps forward, in order to take a closer look at the situation on the battlefield. Seeing that Mobido really led his soldiers to pursue the Beirong cavalry, his expression was solemn.

fifty steps... one hundred steps...

With the sound of his nervous breathing, there was a strange whistle in front of him. The retreating Beirong cavalry had already skillfully changed their horses, turned their heads in unison, and rushed towards Mobido who was chasing after him. Hundreds of people quickly divided into small teams, cooperated tacitly with each other, and quickly divided the battlefield into pieces. Mobido's war horses were already a little weak, and the neat battle formation was instantly cut, and both sides struggled to strangle.

Bi Su on the hill sighed, "The Beirong people really feigned retreat."

After watching for a while, his palms were sweaty, and he asked Tamara, "Would you like to send reinforcements?"

Tamara shook his head, under the mask, a pair of deep blue eyes were neither sad nor happy.

Bi Su no longer asked for instructions.

On the plain, Moviduo gradually fell to the wind. Every time the team tried to form a new formation, they would be cut off by the Beirong cavalry. Led the subordinates who were following closely to rush out of the Beirong people's siege.

"withdraw!"

The soldiers blew the horn to withdraw, and the group retreated in embarrassment. The Beirong people chased after them, killing them all the way to the narrow valley, and the Beirong people stopped their troops.

Moviduo rushed back to the camp hidden at the other end of the canyon, covered in blood, kneeling down to plead guilty, his face full of shame.

Before setting off, the regent told him that this battle was just to test Beirong, and he didn't need to go deep into the enemy's line. He should act cautiously after defeating Beirong for the first time, instead of being hot-headed and continuing to advance, even thousands of people were like a herd of cattle and sheep. Chased by Beirong cavalry archers.

Tamaroka motioned for him to get up and said slowly, "In an army, there are brave people and cowards. No matter whether they are brave or cowardly, they are all soldiers who are loyal to the royal court."

He raised his eyes and looked around, his eyes swept across the faces of every general in the tent.

"Faced with the Beirong cavalry, the brave will bravely charge forward, and the charge will be in danger of falling into the siege. As for the cowardly, they will lose morale and retreat."

Needles can be heard in the tent.

Tan Moraga said slowly: "To command the formation, arrange tactics, let the brave and cowardly cooperate with each other, the brave will charge without falling into a siege, and the cowardly will stand firm without dragging down the entire army's battle formation. It is the general's responsibility. ."

His eyes turned back to Maubido's face.

"The brave is where the morale lies, and the prince is the brave."

After listening to his words, the generals were silent for a while, as if they had realized something. Moviduo frowned and thought, wiped the blood from his cheeks, and his brown eyes rekindled his fighting spirit.

On the first day, Beirong won a small victory, and the noble leaders invited to fight one after another, urging Wakhan Khan to directly lead the army to go straight in.

Wakhan Khan firmly rejected everyone's suggestion. The noble leaders complained one after another. Someone made up a song, making fun of him because he was afraid of the Buddha's son and did not dare to step into the royal court. Soldiers sang it one after another.

Several princes were furious, killed a few rappers who sang the rumors, and asked the Wakhan Khan to concentrate his troops to attack the royal court.

The Wakhan Khan was unmoved, and the next day, still only a small force was sent.

In the face of Beirong's repeated provocations, Wang Ting sent several tribal cavalry troops to meet them. You can go directly to the city.

"What exactly is Khan afraid of? How can Shenlang stop moving forward because he is afraid of Wang Ting's son?"

Wakhan Khan was repeatedly contradicted by the noble leaders and his sons, slashed over the book table in front of him, and said angrily: "The royal court is good at defending the city, we are not good at attacking the city, their city has strong walls, weapons, and food and grass, and we have come from a long way. , If the city is besieged for a long time, it will only last for a few months like the last time, because of lack of drinking water and food and grass, we will retreat sadly, we must lead the main force of the royal court to Sam Valley!"

The eldest prince asked suspiciously: "The Buddha will really concentrate his forces to attack Sam Valley?"

Wakhan Khan put away the knife and took a few breaths, "He will."

Like him, the Buddha was faced with internal pressures and had to deal with external aggressions. Moreover, when Buddha was thirteen years old, he had the courage to lead an army against him. Since he had gathered military power, he would definitely want to take advantage of the situation to fight Beirong. The two faced off. For many years, the Buddha's son understood him, and he also understood the Buddha's son.

The eldest son thought for a moment, clapped his palms and smiled, his eyes lit up: "Father Khan, it turns out that you have taken great care and foresight! Haidu Aling has gone to ask for help, when all the main forces of the royal court are attracted to Samu Valley, will he make a sneak attack? Wang Ting? He is the best at sneak attack. If he can go straight into the holy city and kill the Buddha's son, no matter how many troops the Buddha's son sends, without the Buddha's son, they are just a flock of sheep, slaughtered with us!"

Wakhan Khan remained silent.

The sons looked at each other in dismay. Their father and Haidu Aling conspired to make such a big battle, and they didn't disclose any news to them

"Father Khan, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The sons' complaints were filled with grievances.

Wakhan Khan glanced at his sons: "I said earlier, the royal army will come so quickly?"

The sons did not dare to refute and asked, "Then Ah Ling has already led his troops to attack the Holy City?"

"No." Wakhan Khan shook his head. "It's too early. A-Ling has already set up an ambush. He will not attack until all the main force of the royal court is thrown into Sam Valley."

At that time, the main army of the royal court was trapped in the battlefield of Sam Valley and could not help the Holy City at all.

The Holy City was besieged, and the Royal Court army was bound to panic. That was the best time to destroy them.

Next, Wang Ting and Bei Rong sent tribal cavalry to test each other. Bei Rong found out where Wang Ting's camp was and began to increase troops.

The two armies were very patient and tried to set up their formations. They fought steadily and calmly. Not long after, Bi Suo personally led a sneak attack on a camp in Beirong. Ten thousand Chinese knights in blue shirts and white robes galloped across the valley. , the sound of horses' hooves is like a landslide, and the snow-white flags are flying all over the sky.

Standing on the high hill, Wakhan Khan saw the majestic Bi Sa in front of the battle, and his sharp eyes flashed a gleam of light.

Ashina is here, he is the right-hand man of the Buddha, and the main force of the royal court's army is in Samu Valley.

This will be their burial place.

Wakhan Khan called Yingnu: "Send a letter to Aling, he can do it now."

He called a few more sons and instructed: "You take 2,000 people to quietly withdraw from the Sam Valley, there are a few troops a hundred miles away, you go to join them, and let them guard the passages outside the canyon. "

The sons were very excited: Father Khan really made preparations and set up an ambush, and now the Royal Court's army can't escape!

The rumbling drums of war sounded, and a great battle kicked off.

At the same time, at the foot of the mountains and peaks thousands of miles away, Haidu Aling wrapped in a thick leather jacket and led 5,000 elite soldiers to climb the steep slope of the cliff. Hundreds of soldiers slid from the ropes and fell into meat sauce, and hundreds died of starvation.

At the end of this month, they finally conquered the snow-capped cliffs and ravines that no one had ever set foot on, bypassing the strict defensive line of the royal court and quietly approaching the royal court.

Haidu Aling Cema stood on the cliff, overlooking the towering cliff in the distance. Under the blue sky, he seemed to be able to see the solemn Buddhist pagodas in the holy city.

A letter eagle passed through the stratus, screeched a few times, and landed on his arm.

Haidu Aling untied the copper tube, and after reading Wakhan Khan's handwritten letter, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his golden eyes flashed darkly, like a wolf about to hunt. Direction: Sultan Gu is dead, the army of Buddha's son is far away in Sam Valley, this time, no one can stop him from killing.

With a gesture, the elite soldiers behind him gently climbed onto the horse's back, tightened the reins, and prepared to follow their leader to level the holy city.

In Sam Valley, the flag of Beirong and the snow-white flag of the royal court danced in the sand and dust. The two armies were strangled in one place like a surging torrent. The earth trembled and the valley screamed.

After the confrontation and testing, the two armies opened their battles and sent their main teams.

The Northern Rong allied army was 70,000 people, and the Wang Ting army was 50,000 people. The two sides were divided into the middle army, the left and right cavalry, and the rear army. The spears are like a forest, the blades are sharp, the archers are densely packed, and the iron armor is flickering.

Bi Su, dressed in silver armor, led the soldiers to fight. Behind him, the infantry was scattered and divided into neat battle formations, followed by cavalry on horses. The arrows were fired in unison, forcing the Royal Court army to shrink its formation.

The two armies have been fighting hard for several days, and they both know each other's strength. They consume each other's fighting strength little by little, and their flesh and blood are flying, dyeing the ground under their feet red.

As twilight sank, the vanguards of the two armies cautiously retreated to their respective lines.

After days of tense fighting, the soldiers on both sides were exhausted.

A war report arrived at the tooth tent, and Wakhan Khan clapped his palms together and laughed, sweeping away the gloom of the past few days: "Aling has begun to attack the holy city!"

The princes were overjoyed, and immediately sent an order to the soldiers in the camp to sing the news.

"The soldiers of the royal court respect the Buddha child as a god, and they have to recite his Dharma name when they go out to battle, and they say that the Buddha child is dead, completely defeating their will!"

One after another came out of the camp, and soon resounded throughout the camp.

Hundreds of Beirong cavalry roared in unison on the hill near the Royal Court Camp all night.

"The holy city has fallen, and the Buddha is dead!"

The soldiers of the royal court heard the shouts of the Beirong cavalry clearly, their souls were scattered, and the soldiers were running around in the camp, crying loudly, and the screams echoed in the night sky for a long time.

The next day, the Wakhan Khan did not attack recklessly, but fought in a deadlock with the Royal Court's army as the previous day. That night, the Beirong cavalry repeated their old tricks, standing on the hill and shouting that the Buddha was dead. , sing the Buddhist scriptures for the transcendence of the Buddha.

The next day, the scout reported that the Royal Court Camp almost exploded last night. The soldiers asked to return to the holy city as soon as possible. They wanted to protect the Buddha's son.

On the third day, the Wakhan Khan sent the captives of the tribe that were attached to the royal court that he had captured earlier, and ordered them to spread the news that the Buddha's son had died.

The Wang Ting camp was in a panic, and the murderous aura and the military appearance were no longer the same as before.

During this period, scouts continued to set off from the main camp and rushed to the direction of Shacheng. A few days later, several scouts from the Royal Court flew in, bringing bad news: Haidu Aling attacked the Holy City, and Beirong attacked the Royal Court before. The vassal tribes of each tribe were too busy to take care of themselves and were unable to rush to help. The holy city was in danger, and the army must immediately rush to help.

The news was sent back to the Beirong camp, and the noble leaders were gearing up: "Khan, the time has come!"

After reading the battle report sent back by Xinying, Wakhan Khan was covered in sweat. The Royal Court's troops were limited. They blocked their main force in the Sam Valley and slowly exhausted them. Even if they failed, the Royal Court would never fight back against Beirong. Ability.

He put on the armor, picked up the long sword, and strode out of the tooth tent.

The mournful horn resounded through the valley, Bei Rong gathered all his troops and launched an attack at dawn. The cavalry that supported him frantically charged into the battle formation of the royal court. The hyperbolic bow shot out a round of arrows, and the soldiers slashed and shouted loudly. Buddha's son was dead, Wang Ting's army was distracted, unable to resist the surging cavalry onslaught, and the defense line was weakened layer by layer.

When the red sun climbed into the air, a gap was torn between Wang Ting’s army and the left flank by the cavalry, and the Bei Rong army immediately advanced, like a sharp steel knife, straight into the gap, attacking the left flank of Wang Ting’s army, forcing Wang Ting’s army in In the arranged pocket formation, Bi Suo noticed something was wrong, boosted his morale, and led the soldiers to rush out of the pocket formation and retreated from the direction of the canyon.

When half of the royal court's soldiers escaped from the canyon, the Beirong soldiers who had been in ambush for a long time came out in full force. The arrow pierced through the air with a sharp sound.

As expected by Wakhan Khan, the soldiers of the royal court collapsed and rushed out of the canyon screaming.

The army of Beirong approached step by step, blocking the army of Wang Ting in the depths of the canyon. The swords and guns were like forests, and blood splashed. The sons of Wakhan Khan rushed forward excitedly and slashed. Mobido and Bi Su were covered in blood. I can't stand it anymore.

The wind was blowing, the sand and dust were flying all over the sky, and the battlefield was a mess. Wakhan Khan stared intently at the battlefield, trying to identify the two sides from the dust.

There was also sand and dust on the ridge.

Wakhan Khan's heart tightened, and he called his son: "There are still our soldiers in ambush on the mountain?"

The son said: "Father Khan, all the ambush soldiers have come out to intercept the royal army..."

Before he finished speaking, Wakhan Khan suddenly widened his eyes.

I saw a flag with a snow-white gold pattern slowly fluttering out from the other side of the ridge. Then, more flags sprang up like mushrooms after a rain. A team composed of royal cavalry in iron armor, they quietly poured out from all directions and surrounded the entire battlefield.

With their appearance, the generals Bi Suo and Mobiduo signaled their own soldiers to wave the flag and command the soldiers. The main army of the Royal Court, which had fled in a panic, quickly assembled and retreated backwards, neat and orderly, with strict discipline.

On the ridge, layers of iron-clad cavalry emerged, and archers stood on top of each other, standing in rows.

The horn sounded, and a war general in a black robe appeared more and more in the crowd of knights, galloped to a high place, stopped the horse, slowly lifted the mask on his face, revealing a Ugly face.

Among the thousands of troops, he immediately swung his sword across the canyon, looking down at the canyon with his deep and cold blue eyes.

The battlefield suddenly fell silent.

A pressure that made people nervous and suffocated dissipated, and tens of thousands of Wang Ting sergeants looked up at the figure of the general with ecstasy on their faces.

"Regent!"

The Regent is still alive!

Sultan is not dead!

Sergeant Wang Ting was ecstatic as if he had been given a new life, but the generals of Bei Rong were all dumbfounded, as if a thunderbolt exploded from the blue sky, and his soul was blown away.

In an instant, the situation of the two armies turned sharply, the morale of Wang Ting's army was greatly boosted, and the Beirong army was completely at a loss.

Wakhan Khan trembled all over and couldn't believe it: Sultangu was still alive!

Not only is he alive, but he has endured until this very moment to appear! Previously, the royal court camp was almost destroyed by Beirong, was he always there? Where did the royal court army on the ridge come from

The scouts have been investigating the movements of Wang Ting's army, but they have not found that Sultan has hidden 20,000 horses...

A series of conjectures came to mind. Wakhan Khan was raining down with sweat. From the death of Sultan Gu, everything was the layout of Tammaraka. He thought that he was dealing with Tamaraka and successfully introduced the main army of the royal court. Sam Valley is actually stepping into this game step by step.

Deliberately leaking out the flaws to lure Haidu Aling to attack the holy city, is it also Tamara's plan

Did he expect the Holy City to be besieged

A tired look appeared on Wakhan Khan's old face, and he once again strongly felt his old age and tiredness.

Could it be that what the clan witch said was true, that Tamara was destined to be his nemesis in this life

Sultan took out the long knife, "The Buddha is safe."

The cavalry next to him roared, and the royal court soldiers in the valley roared in response, their eyes frantic: "The Buddha is safe!"

The son of Wakhan Khan recovered from the shock and ran to the Khan.

"Father Khan, I'm going to block Sultan Gu!"

Wakhan Khan shook his head with a wry smile: "We lost."

Sultan Gu, as the protector of the Buddha's son, "resurrected from the dead", fell from the sky, and the morale of the Royal Court's army was unprecedentedly high. At this moment, the army they faced was invincible.

The battle was fierce, and the canyon was almost filled with corpses. The Beirong personal soldiers held their shields and escorted the Wakhan Khan away.

One by one, his subordinates fell off their horses, and Wakhan Khan's face was ashen. Thousands of royal cavalry blocked their way. His son and his guards rushed left and right, trying to break out of the siege.

"Shahai Road! Jinbo is guarding Shahai Road!"

Wakhan Khan shouted, and he didn't know if his sons could hear him. He raised his arms and closed the remnants.

The Beirong elite cavalry quickly assembled again, forcibly tore a small gap, surrounded the Wakhan Khan and rushed out of the encirclement. After a simple rectification, they rushed towards the other exit.

Taniguchi also had a royal army in ambush. Wakhan Khan had just passed through the camp and was ready to order the soldiers to drive the slaves forward.

The civilian slaves kidnapped from various tribes cried and did not dare to go forward. The Beirong cavalry rushed forward, mercilessly slashed at the crowd with long knives. Before running away, rushed to Taniguchi.

The Wang Ting ambush guards at Taniguchi looked at each other, the longbow in his hand was taut, and the tip of the arrow was aimed at the crowd, but he did not dare to release the arrow.

Several light cavalry horses galloped down the hillside, just in time to meet Bi Su, who was chasing after him, and hurriedly reported the military situation: "The last general does not dare to give an order, and he must ask the Prince Regent for instructions on whether to release the arrows."

Bi Su's eyelids jumped.

If the arrow is released, the regent will undoubtedly be charged with killing civilians indiscriminately, and he will feel guilty for the rest of his life.

The purpose of this battle is to weaken the North Rong, consume the main force of the North Rong, and make them unable to attack the royal court. Several sons of the Wakhan Khan have died in the canyon. Only the Wakhan Khan escaped, and the North Rong will be torn apart. …

Bi Suo's thoughts turned, "Wait for the civilians to pass before firing arrows!"

He came to make this decision for Loga, and he was responsible for letting go of Wakhan Khan.

However, when they arrived at Taniguchi, they found that some soldiers were shooting arrows in a panic. Under the arrow rain, more than a dozen slaves running at the front fell down. Bi Su shouted and ordered the soldiers to stop shooting arrows.

There was a commotion in Taniguchi, and the Beirong cavalry found that the soldiers had stopped shooting arrows and hid behind the slaves.

The slaves were defenseless and powerless to resist.

Bi Suo trembled, and led the soldiers to instruct the slaves to slow down and exit the Taniguchi, but the slaves were so frightened that they did not dare to stop, and rushed forward in a swarm. People can no longer get up, and they are almost a purgatory in the world.

Cries were heard throughout the valley.

When the Beirong cavalry escaped in the chaos, Taniguchi was full of corpses.

Bi Suo closed his eyes and called in his own soldiers to clean up the battlefield: "Don't let the regent see..."

As soon as the voice fell, the dust was flying, and the stern and thin figure of Tanmaraga appeared not far away.

Bi Su let out a long sigh.

Slaves captured most of the civilians captured by the northern army from various tribes, and they should not be involved in the war.

Tamaroka looked around, ordered some soldiers to stay behind to rescue the injured civilians, and continued to chase the remnants of Wakhan Khan.

Bi Su followed him.

Tamara said softly: "Only by ending the war as soon as possible can the people avoid the fate of being a mermaid."

Killing to kill was the way he chose in a chaotic world. Only by calming down the chaotic world can we prevent this tragic scene from happening again.

Bi Su should be.

Tan Moraga in front suddenly swayed, groaned, and frowned.

"Regent?"

Bi Su was startled and looked at him nervously.

Tamara shook his hand, indicating that he was fine.

Bi Su didn't dare to make a sound, but his palms were faintly sweating.

There was a faint red in the center of Tan Moraga's brows, and the eyes darkened.

In the battle of Sam Valley, the royal court defeated Beirong and captured more than 20,000 Beirong soldiers. The three sons of Wakhan Khan died in the valley. Under the protection of the remnants, Wakhan Khan himself rushed out of the valley and fled to the sand. Kaido. The leaders of the Beirong nobles fled in a hurry, running all the way, not even Oruduo dared to return, and fled directly to the east of Yizhou.

After this battle, although Wakhan Khan was still alive, it was a foregone conclusion that Beirong was torn apart.

After the war, Bi Suo led the soldiers to clean the battlefield, and the messenger handed him a letter from Shacheng.

"General, a letter from the general of Shacheng... Princess Wen Zhao is not in Shacheng."

Bi Suo was taken aback and opened the letter.

"Where has the princess gone?"

After reading the letter, his heart skipped a beat.

Li Yaoying was missing, and the guard of Shacheng didn't know where she was.

"General, Yuanjue got the letter first. He doesn't know if he should tell the Prince Regent the news."

Bi Suo clutched the letter tightly, and for a while there was no master.

In the season of chaos and chaos, it is normal to occasionally cut off news and lose track, but Li Yaoying is clearly with the Shacheng defenders, Shacheng is very safe, and she will not disappear for no reason.

He hesitated again and again, put a good letter.

"I'm going to see the Regent."

The author has something to say: Recommend a friend, a green tree, an ancient text "The system forced me to flirt with Han" (original name: I want to be a widow at a young age)
