Originally, in the darkness and chaos, the Tang armies were scattered and separated from each other, unable to respond to each other at all. Although the soldiers of the Tang army were brave, facing this situation, they fought on their own and naturally could not resist. Some of them also called for their companions, but every time someone made a sound, a group of enemy troops surrounded them. Scattered shouts and shouts, no matter how brave they are, have no meaning. But it¡¯s different now. Thousands of people are now speaking out. While the Dashi Allied Forces are fighting towards the place where the voice is coming from, the Tang Army is also rushing towards the place where the voice is coming from. They realized that reinforcements were coming, so they mobilized their last strength and tried every means to gather them together. When the Tang army gathered together, brave and brave warriors stood at the head of the team, forming a small wedge-shaped assault camp, and the cannibal's encirclement was in danger. The crazy attacks and slashings from behind also made the Dashi Department suffer from enemies from both sides. Even if those religious fanatics were not afraid of death, when they were almost killed, they would break the siege. When Yuan En saw this scene, he was really filled with anger: he saw that complete victory was imminent, and the revenge of his family and country would be avenged, but the sudden attack of the Tang army from behind made most of the results he expected to be lost. "Kill, chase them," he yelled at the top of his lungs, but the surrounding coalition forces from the river countries did not listen to him. Everyone began to gather their troops. The sky was getting darker and darker, and it seemed that it was going to rain. At this time, we should wait The commander-in-chief of the Dashi Army issued an order. Ziad ibn Sali¡¯s tent was on a hill, where he could overlook the battlefield. As the battle progressed, he moved his tent position three times in order to bring himself closer to the front of the battlefield. Although it was dark, he could still grasp the situation on the battlefield by relying on the bright shadows reflected by the torches. From the moment the Ge Luo Lu people started to attack the Tang army according to the secret agreement, he had a smile on his face, because he knew that he would win a complete victory in this difficult battle. Thank God for giving my warriors the courage and strength to defeat those Kalefi prophets who taught us that all Kalefi must go to hell. It is good to kill them and seize their property. If it were placed at the time of the Fathers of Kings, Khajjaj ibn Yusuf had promised his two generals that whoever conquered China first would be the governor of China. This time, I defeated the Chinese. Will Abu Abbas Caliph appoint me as the governor of China? "What's going on?" Just when Ziad was thinking wildly in the face of the imminent victory, suddenly, in the darkness in the distance, a group of Tang troops singing war songs and rushing into the battle group attracted his attention. He found that the area where the Tang army was attacking was exactly where the allied forces of the river states combined with the Dashi headquarters, and he immediately stood up from his horse. "The Tang people's reinforcements The Tang people actually have such an army." He saw the shadow made of fire rushing into his army, nailing a hole in the originally tight encirclement, and then more figures rushed towards the hole. When they gathered together, the smile on Ziad's face disappeared. "Muttalib, take the Khorasan people to block the gap," he ordered to the general beside him. General "Yes" led the Khorasan cavalry and began to rush towards the gap. However, the scale of the battlefield was too large, and Ziad quickly judged that even if Muttalib arrived, it would not be able to make any difference. He was getting more and more anxious. Failure to block the retreat of the Tang army meant that most of the Tang army would break out of the siege. His plan to decide the ownership of the Hezhong area in this battle may not be realized. Du Huan was not dead. After breaking out of the siege, he sat down on the ground and laughed wildly. "Who is it? Who sent the reinforcements?" someone asked. Du Huan heard the voice. It was Duan Xiushi's voice. The general beside Li Siye also broke through the siege and came out. "I am Bai Xiaode. Ye Gong, the Great Protector of Anxi and the General Manager of the Rear Army, sent me to help. Do you still have the strength to fight again? If so, follow me and fight back to save more brothers." A voice sounded not far away from Du Huan. Du Huan was stunned: Bai Xiaode. He knew that Bai Xiaode was always famous for his bravery in the Anxi Army, but for some reason, he was never appreciated by Gao Xianzhi, so he went on this expedition. , Bai Xiaode was not taken along by Gao Xianzhi. But now he is here. "Ye Gong has sent reinforcements." Duan Xiushi knew more things than Du Huan, who was just an ordinary school guard in the army. He was overjoyed when he heard this: "He actually sent reinforcements." "That's right." "Yes, don't panic, just follow me and kill the enemy." Bai Xiaode shouted again, and then he rode towards the enemy's formation again. Duan Xiushi followed him and rushed out together. Ye Chang sent reinforcements, which was really beyond Duan Xiushi's expectation. He was very clear about Ye Chang's opposition to the Western Expedition before. Now it seems that Ye Chang not only expected that the Geluolu people would rebel, but also had great ambitions. Regardless of previous suspicions, reinforcements were dispatched in advance. At that time, Gao Xianzhi was in front of tens of thousands of soldiers and did not give him any face, so that he could not step down. Moreover, Duan Xiushi knew that before this, Ye Chang had repeatedly reminded Gao Xianzhi through the court and other means to be careful.?Zhongfanhu betrayed. All these good intentions were abandoned by Gao Xianzhi and trampled on them. But when the Western Expeditionary Army led by Gao Xianzhi faced a dilemma, and Gao Xianzhi himself disappeared, it was Ye Chang who sent reinforcements to come to the rescue. Such a figure was only dozens of times better than Gao Xianzhi. Duan Xiushi led Ye Chang and Gao Xianzhi's eyesight and judgment were compared together, and he suddenly felt that Ye Chang was much smarter than Gao Xianzhi. "Mr. Bai, I will kill you." Duan Xiushi said with emotion as he thought: "Everyone, although we are temporarily safe, there are still Baoze's friends trapped in the enemy's formation. How can we abandon them?" "Exactly, I am. I am also willing to fight with Duke Bai." Du Huan also stood up with his sword in hand and said with emotion. "You're not bad, I thought you were a waste at first, but now it seems you still have some backbone." The veteran who had been fighting alongside Du Huan chuckled. Du Huan blushed. At the critical moment, he had abandoned his sword and wanted to surrender. Now that he thought about it, it was really a shame and a great humiliation. He didn't even hesitate to "kill" him. He looked at Bai Xiaode's back and rushed over. More and more Tang troops gathered from the surroundings, and they repeatedly charged and killed. Although they could not change the entire battle situation, they eventually rescued most of the besieged Tang troops. After a fierce battle for a long time, they fought and retreated, returning along the original route. The fruit of victory that the Dashi Army was willing to take was lost. Moreover, although the Dashi Army won this battle, it did not completely eliminate the Tang Army's combat capability. If the Tang Army was given a chance to rest, it might come back again. Therefore, the livid Ziad did not hesitate and directly ordered: "Pursue" "General, there is thunder in the sky, and there will be heavy rain soon. In this case, the soldiers are hungry and tired. It is not suitable to fight anymore. It is better to go back first." Let's take a rest?" someone next to me advised. "We are tired, and the enemies of the true God are even more tired. Now we have the advantage. If we can't follow closely, the Tang army retreats into the mountains and guards the dangerous mountain roads. It will be difficult for us to defeat them again. Listen, the Caliph said, whoever conquers China first, Whoever can become the general manager there, that is the land promised to us by the true God. Our allies are now fighting the Chinese in the south. This is our best chance." Ziad drew out his scimitar angrily: "If you are timid If you don¡¯t dare to step forward, then let me pursue it alone. The True God is Great.¡± The ¡°True God is Great¡± was inspired by his words. All the generals made up their minds and decided to continue the pursuit. But the heavy rain came harder than they expected. It was about to rain, and soon the rainstorm was heavy. Whether it was the Dashi Army or the Tang Army, it was difficult to even open their eyes in the rain, let alone fight. Both sides had to stop fighting, but Ziad didn't know that the rain had saved him from being ambushed. After occupying the Tang army's camp, he withdrew his troops to rest. However, after the Tang army got rid of the pursuit, they suffered from hunger and withdrew more than ten miles and could no longer move. "This is not the solution. If it continues like this, all the wounded soldiers will be dead and they must rest and recuperate." Duan Xiushi looked around. After the excitement of breaking through the siege, the Tang army was now depressed. Although most of the Tang army successfully broke through and returned, they have to admit that this was a disastrous defeat. Not to mention the betrayed Ge Luolu, the Tang Army and the coalition forces of Bukhan, at least more than 20,000 people were killed or captured in this battle, and the rest were all injured. If they cannot receive timely rescue, I am afraid there will be more Many could not last more than a few days. Moreover, all the baggage, food and grass of the Tang army were abandoned, and it was impossible to set up a tent to protect them from the rain. "It's frustrating," Bai Xiaode sighed and murmured. Although he made great achievements today, such a disastrous defeat made him extremely unhappy. "Mr. Bai, you should think of some ways to see if you can still get the account together" Duan Xiushi looked for him and was about to persuade him to set up camp. Suddenly, he saw a firelight in front of him. Under the heavy rain, most of the torches were extinguished. The fire was obviously under some kind of rain shelter. Duan Xiushi raised his eyes and looked east: "That's Baishi Ridgeis it one of our own?" "Li Sheng from the Tianwei Army is here." Bai Xiaode said, "Ye Zhongcheng originally arranged for him to prepare an ambush for the pursuers. Now it's raining heavily. The cannibals have not come after us, and there is no use in ambush. I think he came to meet us." When we got closer, we saw that as Bai Xiaode expected, hundreds of tents were set up in the leeward area, and there were large iron pots cooking delicious food. of broth. These hungry and cold soldiers of the Tang Army couldn't help but cheered when they saw this, and they all praised the Tianwei Army for their thoughtfulness. Duan Xiushi did not expect that in such an embarrassing situation, he would still be able to eat and drink. He was a little surprised, and then he saw Ye Chang striding over under a torch. "How come Mr. Ye is here?" He was shocked. I originally thought that Ye Chang just sent Bai Xiaode, Li Sheng and others, and that he was still in Suiye City. At most, he would only reach Ashbulai City, but he never thought that Ye Chang himself would also arrive at Baishiling. "It's raining." Unfortunately, if it hadn't been for the rain, there would have been a killing spree." Ye Chang said, "Xiao De, you did a great job. If it hadn't been for you, we wouldn't have known."How many soldiers will be lost?" Bai Xiaode grinned and said: "It is obvious that Ye Zhongcheng managed it well and he just did his duty despite his humble position. Ye Chang patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be polite to me, good is good. If you don't do well, I won't show mercy when I scold you." " After he finished speaking, he looked solemn: "I know how hard you have worked, but now I have to persist. First gather the wounded soldiers and put them in place. If you can save one more, it will be one. I wonder who is the leader of the army? " "A certain Duan Xiushi is willing to serve Zhongcheng," Duan Xiushi said in response. Ye Chang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard him introduce his name. This guy is a very famous person. How could he not know that compared to the previous Bai Xiaode and Wei Uncle? Yu, Duan Xiushi is much more talented. If Bai Xiaode and Wei Boyu are generals, then Duan Xiushi is a handsome talent. "Okay, if you are willing to help me, I will be even more powerful." Ye Chang glanced at him and realized that he was just a partial person at this time. Young General Pi suddenly had the idea of ??poaching it for his own use: "At this time, he is still calm and calm, and he has the air of a general. He is willing to help me rescue the wounded because of his kindness Duan Gong has a word, a word "Chang Ran, I can call you by the name of "Mr." Duan Xiushi heard that he spoke so highly of herself after just saying a few words to her. She felt like a confidant and immediately prostrated herself: "You can call me by the name of Ming. I don't dare to be praised by the Prime Minister. , Only act with sincerity and be used by the Prime Minister If Ye Chang were an ordinary person, it would certainly be impossible to convince a talented and courageous person like Duan Xiushi with just one word, but Ye Chang is now well-known and powerful, and more importantly, he In this battle, he formed a sharp contrast with Gao Xianzhi. To a certain extent, he saved Duan Xiushi's life, so Duan Xiushi was so impressed. "I am also willing to serve as a driving force for Zhongcheng," Bai Xiaode shouted next to him. Like Duan Xiushi, although Bai Xiaode was appreciated by Li Siye, Gao Xianzhi did not look at him differently and always regarded him as a brave soldier. Ye Chang entrusted him with an important task, and his predictions were accurate. He had this experience, and Duan Xiu was the first, so he was sincerely convinced. Not only Duan and Bai, but also the rescued Tang troops expressed their loyalty to Ye Chang. There are not many real fools in this world. Gao Xianzhi does not know whether he is alive or dead. Ye Chang is the highest officer in Anxi. If they do not express their allegiance, can they still fight Ye Chang? It is naturally good for everyone to return to their hearts, but Ye Chang's mind is not here at this time. He said seriously: "It's not for me, but for my Tang Dynasty. For my Chinese generals, it can be changed, but China cannot change These words cannot be changed. He said, let's gather the wounded soldiers first. I brought fifty doctors, but the manpower is definitely insufficient. You are familiar with the situation in the army, so call in all the people in the army who have received first aid training as a backup Li Sheng, you Set up fortifications at the entrance of the valley in front to guard against a surprise attack by the cannibals. Xiaode, please work harder and send reconnaissance cavalry to investigate. If there are any casualties among our stragglers, gather them back. If the cannibals continue to pursue, there is no need to fight them. , Come back and repay me quickly. The rest of the people are waiting. Rest when you need to, eat and drink when you need to, and keep your spirits up. After the rain stops, we will take revenge." "Obey the order." All the troops responded in unison, and the sound rumbled in the valley. ring.
