At dusk, the sun slowly went down and the sky began to darken.
Wisps of green smoke rose from the Tang Army camp.
According to one stove for every 100 people, there were a total of thirty stoves in the entire camp, and the smoke penetrated deep into the sky.
At this moment, a Tang Army scout came rushing out of the camp.
The camp door was immediately opened by soldiers in the camp.
The scout turned out to be Xuan Wu, one of the Eighteen Tornado Cavalry.
This time he was the scout captain of the entire army.
Xuan Wu rushed down and came to Zhao Ziliang, clasping his fists and saluting: "General, the enemy has indeed sent out a large number of scouts to clear out the sentries.
Our army's sentries deployed outside the south city gate suffered heavy losses.
After receiving the general's order, the general Return quickly to report, so it is impossible to know the specific number and type of enemy troops."
Zhao Ziliang pondered for a moment and said: "It doesn't matter.
Our camp is only thirty miles away from Sehelan City.
If you wait until the enemy army is dispatched, it will be too late for you to come back to report.
As long as you make sure that the enemy army has dispatched a large number of scouts to detect and suppress me, Military scouts can confirm that they are sure today They are about to send out troops.
As soon as their reconnaissance sentry detects the location of our army, their army will leave the city and come straight here.
Your mission has been completed.
Go to the hillside behind the camp, Pugu Huaien and Li Sheng is ambushing there, you act with them, go ahead."
"General Nuo, please be careful."
Xuan Wu saluted with clasped fists, then turned around and mounted his horse.
On the hillside, Pugu Huaien and Li Sheng were sitting on a big rock in the grass, chatting in a low voice.
"I'm hungry when I see smoke rising from the camp at the foot of the mountain," Pugu Huaien said one after another.
Li Sheng reached out and took out a cloth bag from his boots.
He opened the bag and took out a piece of bread.
He smiled and said, "Fortunately, I prepared dry food."
Seeing that Li Sheng was enjoying the meal, Pugu Huaien couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and asked, "Can you share half of it with me?"
Li Sheng glanced at Pugu Huaien, broke the noodle cake in half, gave half to Pugu Huaien, and asked: "Aren't you prairie people used to eating meat?
Are you eating this noodle cake?"
Pugu Huaien spat and said with disdain: "How can we eat meat every day and every meal?
If we follow this way of eating, no matter how many cattle and sheep there are on the grassland, they will be eaten up.
Most of us still eat grain, Those who drink milk eat meat only part of the time.”
The two were eating noodles and talking.
At this time, Xuan Wu came over with his horse.
The two stood up, looked at each other, and then asked at the same time: "Why are you here?"
Xuanwu didn't answer, but asked: "What do you think?"
Pugu Huaien said: "Could it be that the enemy troops are really out?"
"I don't know whether the enemy army really sent out.
I only know that they sent a large number of scouts to eliminate us.
Several of my brothers were killed.
I was the only one who escaped quietly.
I believe there should be some losses elsewhere."
Li Sheng said solemnly: "It seems that the general's speculation is correct.
This must be a precursor to the enemy's large-scale dispatch.
I believe they will come over soon.
General Pugu, it seems that we need to be more vigilant and concentrate." " "That's right."
Pugu Huai'en nodded and shouted: "Come here, pass on the order.

From now on, no one is allowed to make any noise.
Tie up the horses' mouths so that they don't make any noise.
Wait for the enemy to attack." camp" "promise" As soon as the order was conveyed, a soldier was heard shouting: "Look, what is that?"
Pugu Huai'en was about to have a seizure when he saw a group of blue fireworks rising in the sky in the distance.
Several generals were shocked.
Pugu Huai'en and Li Sheng looked at each other and at the same time looked at Xuan Wu and asked: " Brother Xuan Wu, are your people warning the camp?"
Xuan Wu said solemnly: "Yes, the north of the city is too far away from here, and it is too slow to ride over to report the news.
Therefore, I asked them to light fireworks to warn if they find enemy troops dispatched.
It seems that the enemy troops are not only dispatched from the south city gate.
With troops and horses, Moreover, troops and horses were dispatched from the North City Gate.
They want to attack us from two directions and annihilate us.
I will immediately report to the general and let him be prepared."
After saying this, he didn't care about the reactions of Pu Gu Huaien and Li Sheng and got on his horse.
Run down the hillside towards the camp.
It only took a few minutes to arrive at the camp.
When Xuan Wu saw Zhao Ziliang, he reported the situation truthfully.
Zhao Ziliang frowned and said, "It seems that Bingbo Xilin wants to annihilate us all in one fell swoop, from the north to the south."
Sending a troop of troops in each direction at the same time can attack us from the east and west.
We are surrounded by mountains to the south and a small river to the north.
There is no place to run when under attack, but they don’t know that the river is not deep in this section, and we have deployed a thousand horse archers on the other side of the river.
Now I give you a task.
You ride across the river and tell Bai Xiaode, if we The front of the camp was attacked by the enemy.
His thousand horse archers were temporarily immobile.
If an enemy attacked the camp from behind, He immediately led his cavalry out.
There was no need to cross the river.
He directly launched the cavalry tactics on the other side of the river to shoot back and forth.
With the width of the river, the range of our cavalry's cavalry bows could just cover the area from the river to the hill. area, but the enemy's bows and arrows cannot shoot so far, and we have dug a lot of holes behind our camp in advance.
We have also pulled a lot of stumbling ropes into the horse trap.
It is getting dark now and the light is not very good.
If the enemy attacks from behind, they may not necessarily find these traps.
They will not know that they have been fooled until they come over.
At that time, they will be in front of them.
They were trapped in a horse pit and blocked by horse ropes, and there were a lot of arrows on the opposite side to kill them.
They didn't pose much of a threat to our camp."
After hearing what Zhao Ziliang said, Xuan Wu immediately clasped his fists and said, "I understand, I will tell General Bai immediately."
Since it was a temporary camp, Zhao Ziliang did not ask the soldiers to build any strong defense facilities.
He only built a wooden fence around the camp.
This kind of wooden fence was easy to build and did not take much effort.
He only needed to cut some thicker branches and insert them.
On the ground, just use crossbars to tie them horizontally.
This is mainly to prevent enemy cavalry from suddenly coming in, and it has no effect on infantry.
After the sun went down, it was not dark yet.
It was dusk now, and the meals were already prepared.
Except for the patrolling cavalry, everyone else gathered around to eat as arranged in advance.
They were tied up in a tent not far from them.

There are some war horses and weapons too.
In the tent, if the enemy came to make a surprise attack, they could rush into the tent as quickly as possible, take their weapons, mount their horses, and then come out of the camp.
Zhao Ziliang ordered the fire to be lit to get rid of the cold air in the desert at night.
Some patrol cavalry rode Horses patrolled the camp.
Ziad came very slowly with three thousand cavalry.
After all, it was a surprise attack.
During the march, they could not run wildly.
If there was too much noise, it would not be effective as a surprise attack.
Therefore, they all arrived at the Tang Army camp cautiously.
Stopped after three miles.
Ziad listened to the report of the detective sentry, "At this time, the Tang Army was eating in the camp, but the patrols were very strict, and the Tang Army's military discipline was strict.
Even the soldiers outside the camp were sitting together, and no one moved around at will. " After listening to the scout's report, Ziad looked up and looked at the sky.
At this time, the sun had completely set and the sky was dark, but it was not completely dark yet.
It would definitely be dark if it had another half hour.
He said to the general beside him: "Our army has never fought when it is dark, and fighting after dark is easy to accidentally injure our own people.
Therefore, we must take advantage of the fact that it is not yet dark to launch an attack and strive to end the battle before dark.
Send the order, and the whole army will follow us immediately.
Rush to the Tang army camp and kill them all."
The order was passed on, and all the cavalry of the Dashi rebels silently took out their scimitars, and some people took out their bows and arrows.
Not all light cavalry in the Dashi army or the Dashi rebels were equipped with cavalry bows.
Unlike the Tang Army, every light cavalry member of the Tang Army was equipped with a riding bow in addition to long and short weapons.
The bows used by Asians were basically recurve bows.
This was completely different from Europeans, who could use a bow.
Tough It takes a very short time to make a bow out of ordinary wooden sticks, but the range and power of this bow are nothing compared to the recurve bows used by Asians.
It takes a long time to make a qualified recurve bow. , there are many processes, so every military bow is precious, and the Cannibals are not a nation that is good at using crossbows.
In terms of crossbow technology, both in terms of production speed and quality, the crossbows of the Tang Dynasty at this time The technology is ranked first in the world.
"For the glory of Allah to illuminate the entire world, warriors, raise your scimitars and charge at the enemy.
Long live Allah."
"Long live Allah" When the rebels heard Ziyad's roar, they all felt as if they had been given blood.
The power of faith is so powerful that it can instantly turn a person into a murderer without any thought or fear.
The mad demons and the three thousand rebel cavalry all followed Ziad with scimitars in their hands and rushed towards the Tang army camp.
The violent ground shaking was quickly noticed by Zhao Ziliang and others.
At his signal, the two hundred Tang Army soldiers who stayed in the camp began to panic and run around in the camp in a planned way.
Ziad, who had already rushed to the camp, saw this situation and doubted that he was there.
He waved his machete and shouted: "Long live Allah, kill."
He took the lead in breaking open the camp door and rushed into the Tang army camp.
The Dashi rebel cavalry behind them followed closely.
Followed by.
The soldiers of the Tang Army who stayed in the camp moved very quickly.
They ran into the camp, picked up their weapons, got on their horses, and then rushed out of the camp to come to Zhao Ziliang.
At this time, Zhao Ziliang was already standing in the middle of the camp holding the golden nail Zaoyang. , and soon, more than half of the Tang army soldiers gathered around him.
"Soldiers, follow me and kill."
Zhao Ziliang rode his horse to meet Ziad who was rushing over.
When Ziad saw Zhao Ziliang, he shouted: "Go to hell" and slashed at Zhao Ziliang with a knife.
The golden spiked Zaoyang spear in Zhao Ziliang's hand thrust forward and pierced Ziad's throat.

The scimitar in Ziad's hand was a short weapon, while the golden spiked Zaoyang spear in Zhao Ziliang's hand was a long weapon of 1.6 feet.
Ziad's scimitar was a long distance away.
Zhao Ziliang was still far away, but the golden nail Zaoyang in Zhao Ziliang's hand had already pierced him.
Ziad was shocked.
It was too late to dodge at this time, so he could only change his attack midway, withdraw his scimitar and block the direction of Ma Shan's thrust.
With a "ding" sound, Ziad consciously felt a huge force rushing toward him.
He was knocked backwards and flew away, knocking away five or six rebel cavalry behind him before sitting on a horse.
On the war horse.
Ziad was filled with fear.
Zhao Ziliang's blow just now almost made him walk away from the gate of hell.
He looked at Zhao Ziliang with fear in his heart, but he could no longer retreat.
He immediately pointed at Zhao Ziliang and shouted: "Kill Get him, kill him quickly”:
