From the very beginning of the lightning-fast surprise attack plan, Zhou Chengye had no intention of letting only the unit led by Ge Shuhan take the limelight. Otherwise, he would not have left only two hundred regular troops to look after the house and dispatched all the rest of the troops. go out. From the very beginning, what the Suirong Army launched was a full-scale war against the Tubo Kingdom, not a small fight! When Ge Shuhan led his cavalry to the Mabuha River, one hundred guardsmen who crossed the water and were led by Zhou Chengye personally arrived at Longju Island in the center of Qinghai Lake in five black-shell wooden boats. Zhou Chengye's small team was the last to leave the city, but it was able to arrive at the battlefield almost at the same time as his brother Shu Han. It was not a coincidence, but a rigorous calculation in advance. Longju Island is about a hundred miles away from the shore where Zhou Chengye's team entered the water, and it is ninety miles from Suirong City to the lake. When Zhou Chengye and others drove the ox cart and the huge wooden boat towards Qinghai Lake, the Tubo reconnaissance rangers in this area had already been completely cleaned up by the four teams that had set out before, so they could continue to patrol the area day and night. march. After the wooden boat is launched, the team members can be divided into two groups. While one group is rowing, the other group can take the opportunity to rest and recover. When the boat was moving forward in the wide lake, Zhou Chengye used a high-precision compass and also used the angle and height of the rising sun to estimate the length of day and night, so he headed almost all the way to the location of the island in the middle of the lake in the due west direction. Come on, this is equivalent to taking a straight route, which not only saves time but also saves energy. Based on the speed of a wooden boat traveling ten to fifteen miles in one hour in the water, it would take about eight hours for them to arrive at Longju Island. According to the laws of the body's biological clock, dawn is the time when people are most likely to fall asleep and when their alertness is lowest. What Tubo is best at is playing tricks on horseback, and his combat effectiveness has been reduced a lot when dismounted. As for being in the water, it is even worse. What a bunch of scum! When did troops capable of performing tricks in the water appear in the territory of Tubo? Longju Island is about five miles long from east to west and three miles wide from north to south. It covers an area of ??more than 1,700 acres. The entire island is shaped like a conch shell. The highest mountain top on the island is about 70 meters above the lake. When Zhou Chengye quietly landed on Longju Island with a hundred brothers and Lei Wan, he did not make a sound, and naturally did not alert the unsuspecting Tibetan defenders. Therefore, this night camp attack took place in the dark. The "throat wiping" drill. The team members started massacring from four directions according to the five action groups that had been organized, while Zhou Chengye led a small team and went straight to the big tent of the leader of the Tibetan garrison on Longju Island. The tent of the leader of the Tubo garrison is located in an ancient temple on Longju Island. According to legend, this temple was first built by monks in the Han Dynasty. When Tubo became a believer in Buddhism, they were naturally willing to build a large tent near the ancient temple. However, this group of uninvited guests who just landed on Longju Island are not good men and women. Their goal is very clear, that is, to wipe out all the Tibetan soldiers on the island, and then completely control Longju Island! The five hundred Tibetan garrison troops are distributed in an area of ??1,700 acres. It is destined that there will not be too many internal fights at each garrison point, which makes it convenient for each action team to calmly attack and kill those who are still sleeping. of Tibetan soldiers. The weapons Zhou Chengye equipped for the team members mainly include daggers, short crossbows and short knives for hand-to-hand combat. These weapons can easily kill Tibetan soldiers who have no weapons in their hands without making too much noise. By the time the sun was about to rise, the four teams on the periphery had completed their tasks, and they headed towards the ancient temple in the middle together. Zhou Chengye waited until everyone arrived in the capital, and whispered to Liu Mingchang: "Now you can say hello to the Tubo people inside!" Liu Mingchang nodded, and immediately led a dozen team members to quietly approach the residence of the leader of the Tubo garrison. Then he quickly placed a "small baggage" on the relatively sturdy courtyard, and then pulled out black leads from it. "Erlang, everything is ready!" "Brothers, withdraw a hundred steps outward and all lie down!" Zhou Chengye gave the order and everyone retreated. "Light the fire!" A moment later, the lit match rope chirped and burned forward. After dozens of breaths, a huge roar exploded on Longju Island. After the violent explosion ended, the last batch of nearly a hundred Tibetan soldiers on Longju Island were all sent to hell in their sleep. They did not realize that death was coming before they died. The ancient temple not far from the residence of the Tibetan leader collapsed not long after it could not withstand the huge earthquake. Several Tubo monks living in the temple finally achieved consummation at this moment and went to Xiyao to meet the Buddha. "Lei Wan, count the numbers immediately!" Zhou Chengye gave the order. "Report to the general, the count has been completed. There are ninety-seven people here, and five more are currently hidden in the boat in the lake. Eighteen of the ninety-seven were injured, including five seriously injured and thirteen lightly injured. Enter, no one will be killed!¡± ¡°Immediately send a signal to the lake to let the wooden boat approach, we will evacuate here immediately and head west!¡± Soon, Zhou Chengye led his team members to evacuate from Longju Island, and the five seriously injured team members had been rescued. After bandaging and stopping the bleeding, his life was temporarily safe. After Zhou Chengye left Ban Yao, the Tuyuhun fishermen who were fishing in boats in the lake docked their boats at Longju Island as usual. They brought some fresh fish and shrimp to the Tibetan soldiers, hoping to exchange for some food and salt. Qinghai Lake is rich in a kind of yellow fish with delicious meat. It is the favorite of the leader of the Tibetan garrison on the island. However, when these fishermen walked into the garrison and saw the bloody scene, some were frightened and fainted to death on the spot, while others lost their minds and rushed into the lake crazily and drowned alive. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Not a single one of the 500 Tibetan garrison survived. In addition to being killed by having their throats cut, they were bombarded to ashes, not even a single person alive! The fishermen in the lake who were not frightened out of their wits fled the island in panic. For a long time to come, they quietly told their fellow tribesmen the horrific scene they had witnessed. The reason why Zhou Chengye took the risk to wipe out the Tibetan garrison on Longju Island was because in the subsequent war, he no longer had to worry about the five hundred Tibetan soldiers on the island moving, disrupting a series of plans he had made. Although the 500 Tibetan garrison troops on Longju Island are few in number, if they obtain information and find a breakthrough in any direction, it will cause an unfavorable situation for the troops responsible for blocking the attack in a certain direction. As for this first attack since joining the army on Tuesday, after the entire combat operation was completely completed, it was finally reported to the Ministry of War by the Suirong Army. When Li Yi, the Minister of the Ministry of War of the Tang Dynasty, and Du Hope, the minister of the Ministry of War, came to see it, everyone unanimously sent it to the Ministry of War. Zhou Chengye¡¯s nickname is ¡°Butcher Zhou¡±! Five hundreds of entry into one hundred, your own side can retreat, and do not die, while the other party does not leave in. What is the difference between this? Isn't Zhou Chengye, who personally directed this operation, just a butcher who kills pigs? Of course, after His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty learned the origin of the nickname "Butcher Zhou", he felt that it was not elegant enough, so with a stroke of his pen, he personally gave Zhou Chengye a plaque with the title "General Ten Thousand Tu"! It can be seen from this that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is actually not a good bird. Didn¡¯t he encourage Butcher Zhou to chop off tens of thousands of heads in his lifetime? Of course, these are all things that will happen a few months later, but what is now facing the various units of the Suirong Army is an unavoidable tough and vicious battle! (To be continued)
