Chapter 507 Difficult to Attack
An army that came out of the city was far from what Tea Candle Fever had imagined. There were only a few hundred troops in the city.

This is also due to Wang Hua's death order, sending a large number of scouts and patrols to search the territory, and the People's War Haiyang launched because the people were inspired.It may not play an important role in the war, but under the surveillance of countless people, it is almost impossible for any stranger in the territory to escape.This led to the eight states, killing countless scouts from various forces at one time.Tubo now has no detailed information on the layout of the eight states.

In fact, there are two thousand troops deployed in the city. Although the number is small, they are all warriors selected from thousands of miles.

In order to get off to a good start and for the entire campaign, Wang Junchuo and Guo Zhiyun came to Dingrong City in person.

There are also some people in the city who mainly shop, because it is on the ancient road of Tang and Tibet, and Tubo did not cut off the trade road, and the blood camp also did not cut off the trade road.Even after the war between the two sides last year, the business and trade between the two sides have continued to communicate.Although Dingrong City is small, it is still very prosperous.

After Guo Zhiyun and Wang Junchuo came here, they quietly transferred the various businesses.Because of the coming of the war, the commercial roads have already been blocked at the same time.At this time, Tubo knew that it was not a big problem.Mainly from the rear, two thousand elite soldiers were secretly transferred in from the rear. The soldiers were easy to hide, mainly war horses.This is the benefit of having a city. Tubo has a city, but it doesn't pay much attention to the city.

Then something new was prepared.

The first is chili noodles.Not procured from Tang Dynasty.After the war last year, Wang Hua knew that Tubo would not let this humiliation go.It was not lost to the Tang Dynasty, but to a minister who escaped from the Tang Dynasty and only had hundreds of thousands of people in the eight states.

In the eyes of the arrogant Tibetans, such humiliation is unbearable.

Therefore, some small things are prepared, which may or may not come in handy.But it is much more cost-effective than exchanging the lives of soldiers.

Chili noodles is just one of them, it was what Wang Hua remembered when he was eating chili.In addition to giving the seeds to Shibajia, Wang Hua also planted a large number of peppers and other spices in Oceania.This year's harvest was bumper, but at this time Wang Hua betrayed the Tang Dynasty and could not be sold publicly. The second was handed over to [-] companies to let them control sales and not confuse the market.

So Wang Hua transferred a large number of dried chili peppers, some of which were given to the people to eat.There is also a part of it that is ground into chili noodles, which are still very fine. They are exposed to the sun without any moisture at all. They are packed in bags, sealed, and some quicklime is added to the interlayer to absorb moisture.

Transport the chili noodles to Dingrong City, and wait until the Tubo people are about to arrive before notifying the people and letting them evacuate as soon as possible.To further confuse the other party, it happens that these people are reluctant to part with their property and carry a lot of luggage, but the effect of deception is strengthened.

Then there are hot air balloons.

The hot air balloon is not small, it just rises high in the sky, and it looks like that.No one was placed underneath, but the balloon was specially made. The cowhide was peeled very thin to make a balloon, and the outside was coated with flammable materials. There were many chili noodles in the balloon.When high in the air, shoot the rocket with the crossbow to set it ablaze.The southeast wind happened to be blowing, and the enemy stood in the downwind.When the wind blows, chili noodles are floating all over the sky.And with balloons, the distance is increasing, coupled with the height, the range of radiation is wider.Near the top of the city, there are soldiers raising chili noodles.As for this thing, because it is very expensive, it almost sold for such a terrifying price of five hundred Wen a catty.So most Tubo soldiers don't know what it is.Even if I know it, I have never seen it used in war like this.So nine out of ten Tubo soldiers were hit.

Even Wang Hua couldn't take it when this thing got into his eyes, and they covered their eyes and howled.

Guo Zhiyun and Wang Junchuo had already made preparations, and they didn't have glasses. They had an iron frame with a piece of glass in it, and a cloth strip tied to their ears outside the iron frame.The gap was also blocked by the cloth strips.Mouth and nose are covered with a big mask.

That's it, when 2000 people got into the red mist, there were still soldiers coughing hotly.

Wang Junchuo yelled: "His aunt's, it cost so much money for Yingdu, brothers, kill it."

It cost a lot of money. These chili noodles are now on the market and may sell for thousands of dollars.But if a few thousand dollars cost [-] troops out of combat effectiveness, it is estimated that there will be no one who does not invest this money.

So after hearing Wang Junchuo's words, almost all the soldiers laughed and rushed out of the city.

This is almost the same as Xue Song's massacre in Xipebble River.

Let alone [-] elite soldiers, even [-] militiamen can achieve a great victory.

Some Tubo soldiers were lucky enough not to be recruited by the chili noodles. Seeing that the situation was not good, there was no way to fight this battle. Can they fight with their eyes closed?One by one immediately closed their eyes and got on the horse, but when they closed their eyes, people continued to be tricked one after another.Others held back their tears and fumbled to get on their horses and escape for their lives.Most of them can't even touch the horses.

Wang Junchuo and Guo Zhiyun ignored the others, one left and one right surrounded Chazhure.

Not to kill him, but to capture him alive.This is more significant than killing.

The reaction to the tea candle fever was not slow. Although the chili powder choked in his eyes, he still found the horse and rode on it. It didn't matter whether the horse belonged to him or not.But because of the line of sight, and now that the line of sight is good, there is chaos everywhere, some horses are colliding with each other, and some of their own people are cutting their own people.He couldn't run as fast as he wanted to.

Both Wang Junchuo and Guo Zhiyun wanted to make this first effort, so they rushed to Chazhure's side by coincidence, one on the left and one on the right, the strength of the two tiger generals was not small, they almost tore Chazhure in two, but they pulled him from the horse stand up.

Who should be credited for this credit?
The two looked at each other through the glass mirror, and had no choice but to order their subordinates to tie up the tea candle hot.Half of the family.It's still important to kill the enemy.

The tea candle heat became a prisoner, and the others did not have such a good thing.Time is tight now, and Kezan's army is right behind.After hearing the news, they will immediately send troops to support them. Although the morale is high under the great victory, the number of people is too small.Therefore, it is necessary to end the battle in a short time, collect the spoils of war, and at the same time help the people, and withdraw from Dingrong City together.

The battle went on for about an hour, and the red mist gradually spread and finally disappeared.

Many Tubo soldiers also escaped.Guo Zhiyun and Wang Junchuo did not chase after him.But this battle was fruitful, including countless weapons and supplies, thousands of horses, and more than 7000 Tubo soldiers were killed.Wang Junchuo stayed to clean up the battlefield, and Guo Zhiyun arranged for the people to evacuate immediately, especially many people who had not had time to evacuate from Dingrong City, and when they saw the battle started, they ran faster.These people have been in this short period of time, and it is impossible to get them back.

Ke Zanre was leading an army to the foot of Chiling, and when he heard the news of Chazhure's defeat, he almost fell off his horse.

Another 1 people!

How many 1 people do you have?

Immediately, the general Sidhuzhi and [-] troops were sent to respond, and he repeatedly asked how many people could be rescued, and he should not be greedy for credit.

Siduzhi led the army to the city of Dingrong, and the battlefield had already been cleaned up.The bodies of Tubo people are everywhere on the ground, but all the armor has been stripped off.In fact, this time Tubo expanded its army so much that it was impossible to use armor for all of them. More than half of the soldiers only wore leather armor.This kind of leather armor is really despised by the blood camp now.

But it has to be stripped off, and left to the enemy to arm the enemy. Bring it back and distribute it to the militia and the people to wear it, which can increase some combat effectiveness.

Even most of the clothes were stripped off and set on fire.The rest of the luggage and the people were escorted to Shancheng.There is still a long way to go, 120 miles from Dingrong City to Shancheng.Therefore, [-] soldiers were left to continue guarding Dingrong City.

The scenery outside Dingrong City in March is very beautiful, the small rivers are like jade belts, but these corpses have seriously damaged this beautiful scenery.Because of the smell of blood, some vultures were attracted, pecking at the corpse on the ground, and making ugly scratching noises.

There are really many Tibetans who are not disgusted with letting eagles eat corpses.There is no need to be disgusted, and more than a dozen weird spheres floated in the sky.

Siddulje did not see the situation on the battlefield, but he heard the deserters who had fled from the defeat talk about the defeat.Seeing the sphere rising, he was startled, and quickly ordered the soldiers to retreat seven or eight hundred steps, and then set up camp. The situation was a bit weird, so let's wait for Kezanre to arrive.

Guo Zhiyun looked at the top of the wall and smiled, and said to Wang Junchuo: "I said Xiao Wang, these Tubo people are really stupid, thinking that we will do it again. But this thing is really easy to use."

The dark veins on Wang Junchuo's face were throbbing, we are now a well-known general, and we are still the type of fierce general, how can we call me Xiao Wang?

This is because Guo Zhiyun gave him face, otherwise Wang Junchuo would not be able to bear calling him Xiao Chuuchuo as before.

It was because of the friendship between them that Wang Hua intentionally arranged them together.In addition to Guo Zhiyun who came to Shancheng, he also brought over 9000 militiamen from the Dizi Division he trained.However, the main force is not placed in Dingrong City, but in Shancheng.In addition to Dizi Division and Tianxuan Army, there are also Gongsun Yun's Qinglong Brigade and Wang Jun's Xuanwu Brigade. The regular army alone has invested [-] people.

But the real main battlefield is not here.

Wang Junchuo didn't answer, just like Sidulchi stood at the foot of the wall, his face was livid.

It's not that you're not brave, if you really work hard, everyone will raise their elbows and copy the guy.But this weird way of playing made him feel very uncomfortable.

Ordered to attack, God knows how much the chili noodles will spread, so we have to find a way to deal with this kind of chili noodles.

The generals were called together and came up with various methods, such as covering their noses with a towel. After hearing this, Sidhuzhi shook his head repeatedly and covered his nose. It would be better to sew a mask like the blood camp.Guan Jian is the eyes.What if you can't see the other party?
So another idea came out, wait for the wind direction to change, and attack when the southwest or northwest wind blows.

Sidhuji kicked the general on the ass, and even scolded the pig's brain. Now that the spring is strong, the only wind blowing is from the southeast, and there is no northwest wind blowing anywhere.

In the end, a Tuyuhun general said in a muffled voice, "Let's make a detour."

Only a detour from the south, cutting off Dingrong City and Xurong City, not only gained the upper hand, but also made thousands of soldiers in Dingrong City nowhere to go.

But the reason why Dingrong City was built here is precisely because there are many mountains on both sides and the terrain is dangerous.This detour is not a plain, I don't know if it has been detoured for dozens of miles, and there are many mountains and rivers. Will the monster on the other side take advantage of this terrain and set up a vicious ambush again?What's more, for such a big move, Ke Zanger had to be notified.

In this way, after discussing for a long time, it means that there is nothing and no discussion.

In desperation, they had no choice but to send out scouts again to inform them.

Ke Zanre also had a headache when he heard it, but fortunately, he was not far away. After crossing the Chiling Mountains and arriving at the foot of Dingrong City, it was already dark.

Ke Zanre also convened the generals to discuss countermeasures, but this time there were more people.Regarding the detour, Ke Zanger immediately objected.Regardless of the dispatch of the army this time, the first detour will undoubtedly aggravate the difficulty of supply.The second pair of Wang Hua has deep fear in his heart.When this big stick came down, more than 7000 of his soldiers were killed, why didn't he feel terrified.Finally, after some discussion, I still covered my nose with a towel, and at the same time made a brimmed hat with the towel supported by strips of strips. When sprinkling chili noodles in the blood camp, put down the brimmed hat to reduce the invasion of some chili noodles, although most of them were blocked. It's better to lose sight than to let chili powder fly into the eyes and be blind.

In addition, send someone to notify Xin Nuoluo, my side has been marked, why don't you do it?
After hearing the news, Xinuoluo said well: "I will launch an attack on Hezhou right now."

After the envoy of Siduzhi left, he cursed: "What a pig. I didn't send troops for you, but to seduce the Tang Dynasty. Don't you know how to save some strength for Tubo!"

In fact, logically speaking, he should remind Ke Zanre, but Tubo's appointment this time made him feel a little chilled, and he happened to see Ke Zanre's jokes.But in order to deal with Ke Zangre, he moved his army forward for thirty miles, which was already very close to Kelan Pass.But it is also not far from the counties of Kuozhou. In fact, it has already cut in from the territory of Dahua County and Michuan.

The people in the two counties have been evacuated to the rear of Hezhou, but there are still some crops planted in the fields, which glow green under the warm sun in late spring.There are also some wheat ears that have begun to bend into heavy ears, but unfortunately they are blue ears, and it is at least a month before the harvest time.This made Xin Nuoluo feel a little regretful.

But at this time, the marching speed slowed down again, like a snail crawling.Finally arrived at Kelan Pass, Xinuoluo found a safe place to camp.There is no research, just training in the field every day.

When Ke Zan hot heard the news, he was so angry that he scolded his mother.

At this time, he was attacking Shancheng County.On the second morning in Dingrong City, he prepared the army to attack the city, and he was also ready to sacrifice.But I was very depressed, how many soldiers had to be prepared to die if they attacked all the way to Lingzhou like this.

He thought it was very beautiful.

Wang Hua could let him be placed in Lingzhou, that is, under the city of Shanzhou. This space made Wang Hua feel heartache.How much production and harvest has been delayed by this release?

And it's not this one that's being released, it's also being released in several other places.

But the soldiers carefully carried their shields and ladders to the bottom of the city wall, and the city was very quiet.But the more this is the case, the more careful the soldiers are. If things are abnormal, there must be demons.Set up the ladder, climbed up the ladder very carefully, and slowly climbed to the top of the city.Everyone was dumb, there was no one in the city, only empty houses remained.Some soldiers shouted from the top of the city, and some walked down from the wall and opened the gate.

Withdrew overnight?

Now that we have withdrawn, let's attack.The army moved west again, and when they came to Suirong City, sixty miles away, it was still an empty city.So he opened again and came to Linfan City, which was still an empty city.At this time, Kezan made a mistake, because of Dayan's disastrous defeat, and then to himself, the forward was defeated again, and the army did not dare to disperse.Otherwise, send a rapid march and catch up with the retreating people.

Then he made a mistake again, because Wang Hua liked to fight at night, so seeing that it was getting late, he set up camp under Linfan City to rest.

The next day he led the army to Shancheng.

Here, at last, he met resistance.Because of the terrain, this time we can turn to the south gate and attack Shancheng.Even if the other party puts chili noodles, the harm is not very great.At the beginning, it was still a regular attack and defense, and the two sides fought fiercely. From time to time, Tubo soldiers climbed to the top of the city, but they were quickly killed by the fierce soldiers of the other side.

Ke Zanre came to a hilltop outside the south gate, just in time to see the situation in the city.There are many soldiers in the city, as well as many civilians, who are evacuating to the north bank of Huangshui.Because of carrying a lot of luggage, the scene was very chaotic, and many soldiers were sent out from the blood camp to maintain order.

Seeing this situation, Ke Zanre can only say that it is good to have money.Did you see that, just because of the money, Wang Hua supported so many people by himself.Not only did a commoner not let go, but the houses in the city were also refurbished.The new white thatch roof, the walls are also made of thick trees as pillars, lined with bamboo, and painted with yellow mud, which looks very eye-catching.There are also many who simply use wooden boards for the walls and paint them with red and green lacquer, just like those beautiful houses in the big inland cities of the Tang Dynasty.

After looking at it, he found no suspicious doubts, so he walked down the mountain.

With a wave of his hand, he strengthened his attack.

But this time, the soldiers of the Scarlet Battalion on the top of the city were even more harmful. They boiled a pot of boiling oil in the city and poured it from the top of the city.

It may not be fatal, but the screams of pain and the miserable appearance of black and bruised faces caused the morale of the Tubo soldiers to drop suddenly.

Ke Zan was so angry that he scolded his mother again, and then asked the soldiers to hold up their shields and came under the city wall again.This time, things were still pouring on the top of the city, but it wasn't boiling oil.It was the excrement and excrement collected from the city, and it stinks for a while.Although the Tubo soldiers are not hygienic, they must not be interested in this thing.

It's the shield blocking it, but I have to walk, but there's defecation everywhere, how can I walk?With this hesitation, stones and trees fell from the top of the city like rain.An attack was foiled again.

Ke Zan hot snorted, but this thing is really disgusting.

Wang Hua praised him for a reason, and he had a sudden change of ideas, didn't you get these dirty things down.So let the soldiers dig the mud, and each person will bring some mud, and sprinkle it on the ground along the way, to see whether there is more small stool in your city or more mud outside the city.

Sure enough, there was still a lot of mud, and finally there were no soldiers in the city.But the trick came out again, throwing thatch outside, and the Tubo soldiers didn't pay attention at first.One by one, they rushed to the bottom of the city wall, because this time the defense on the city was a little looser, and many soldiers rushed to the bottom of the city.

Ke Zanre knew that the other party was not aimless, and he was thinking about what new tricks the other party would use, shooting many rockets from the top of the city.Rockets may not be more lethal than crossbows.But it was not for the purpose of killing, but to ignite the thatch under the city, not only thatch, but also a lot of vegetable oil that was boiled in a hot pot, [-]% without any moisture.All of a sudden, there was a sea of ​​fire under the city wall.It would be better if it was iron armor. Many Tubo soldiers in Guan Jian wore leather armor.After the fire, they turned into people of fire, howling like wolves in the city.

There is no way to attack anymore.

There is also a way to burn the fire. At worst, the soldiers bring water and pour it on the thatch.Even if rockets are fired on the top of the city, the fire is not big, but they are not holding shields, mud, water, weapons, and siege equipment. The soldiers are really Avalokitesvara.

Just when it was getting late, Ke Zanre ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

Hearing the withdrawal of troops, the Tubo soldiers cheered thunderously.This made Ke Zan hot worried. The war has not officially started yet, and the 1 regular troops in the eight states are not vegetarians.Looking from the top of the mountain today, there are only [-] people in the city, or even less.If tens of thousands of regular blood battalion soldiers were dispatched, how would this battle be fought?
