Chapter 364: The Battle of Talas (Part II)


Under the city of Talas, after Li Liangzuo saw his grandson Li Xiang, Li Liangzuo immediately sealed the entire Qarlu Department, and crowned the commander of the Qarlu Ministry, Ye Huyao Livas, as the title of prince, and named him the Qarlu Khan, and his son Timur was crowned as the prince.

The camp of the Xia army, in Li Liangzuo's large tent, the generals of the Xia army and the generals of the Qarluq department were lined up on both sides, Li Liangzuo pointed to the map and said to everyone: "Now the Turgish people have all withdrawn into the city of Talas, and the tribe of the Turgish tribe outside the city has been swept by our army, so the next plan is to recapture the city of Talas, and the Aiqing do not know what they think of this battle."

None of the generals of the Xia army stood up to speak, and now these generals who are following Li Liangzuo are some juniors, these generals basically have not fought a few battles, and they used to obey the command of their superiors, and now Li Liangzuo let them say what they think, these generals didn't know what to do for a while, which made Li Liangzuo very annoyed, as a general, if he didn't even have basic judgment, then what was the use of these generals The general on the Xia army's side did not speak, but Timur stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the last general thinks that this siege of the city should want to surround it, and then send heavy troops to attack it a little to attract all the Turkey troops defending the city to the side, and then send a small force composed of elite troops to raid from the flank, and the number of the raiding troops does not need to be too much; The place of attack must be the enemy's vital point, that is, the city gate; At the same time, a large number of light cavalry dead soldiers were ambushed outside the city gate, and once the city gate was opened, the cavalry was immediately used to capture the city gate, and as long as it broke the city of Talas, it was equivalent to breaking through. ” "That's a good point."

Li Liangzuo praised Temur Dao; "I didn't expect that there would be such a talent in the Qarlu Department, Yaoli Aiqing is really a royal family."

"Your Majesty praised it falsely, the dog's tactics of war were also learned from Your Majesty, and in front of Your Majesty, he is just a class with an axe."

"Oh, how do you say that?"

"Your Majesty, since you learned from His Royal Highness the King of Qin that His Majesty's art of war is like a god, he has always worshiped His Majesty as a god, and the dog once followed His Royal Highness the King of Qin to learn the art of war, and was admitted to the Royal Academy established by His Majesty himself, and now he has just graduated back."

"There is such a thing, so Aiqing's beloved son is also my apprentice."

"Your Majesty can take the dog as an apprentice, that is the honor of our entire Qarluq department."

"Everyone loves Qing Zhen or the same sentence, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will really be for me and for the Great Xia Kingdom; I can't give you anything except my wife, I can give you the rest, in the future, my Great Xia Kingdom will dominate the world, and all the places where the sun can shine are the territory of my Great Xia Kingdom, and at that time, even if the earth is torn and the king is sealed, it is not impossible. ” "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live" "Today's army will be repaired for one day, tomorrow the third watch will cook, and the fifth watch will set off; The Qarluq army and our Xia army joined forces, the Xia army attacked the east gate and the south gate, and the Qarluq soldiers and horses attacked from the west gate and the north gate, and those who attacked the city first by the two armies were rewarded. ” "Respectfully obey Your Majesty Shengyu."

After Yaorivas led the generals of the Qarluq tribe back to his camp, Temur asked Yaorivas: "Father Khan, what will our army do tomorrow, whether it is a real attack or a false thing?"

” "To attack, you must launch the most fierce attack, and you must attack the city before the Xia army at all costs."

Yao Rivas said firmly.

Timur was very puzzled and said, "Why did Father Khan's attitude change so quickly?"

Yao Rivas said to Timur: "It's not that the attitude of this Khan changes quickly, but that you have to choose the right object of allegiance, you can be loyal to the King of Qin, but your father Khan can't, you only represent the future of the Qarlu Ministry, and Father Khan and I represent the entire Qarlu Ministry, if you are loyal to the King of Qin for your father, it will inevitably cause Your Majesty's suspicion of the King of Qin, and then our Qarlu Department and the King of Qin will not have a good end; Temur, you have to remember that our Qarlu Department is not loyal to the King of Qin, but to the emperor of the current Great Xia Empire, and we can say that we belong to the line of the King of Qin at most, understand?"

"The child understands, thank you for the teachings of Father Khan" "In the past, my father even thought about competing with Emperor Xia, but since I saw Emperor Xia, this idea of being a father has completely changed, and Emperor Xia's talent is probably not comparable to a small person like us at all, our Gelulu Department from our ancestors to the present, the only idea is to live in the grassland of the Western Regions, and the most idea is just to dominate the Western Regions, but the Xia Emperor does not put the Western Regions in his eyes at all, in the eyes of the Xia Emperor, the Western Regions is just a fulcrum for his westward southward expansion."

"Father Khan, do you think such a huge empire can really exist?"

"I don't know for my father, Temur, you have to remember that from now on, our Qarlu tribe will swear allegiance to the Great Xia Kingdom, even if the Great Xia Kingdom eats meat and we only drink soup, it will be a piece of fat meat for our Qarlu tribe; The army under the command of Emperor Xia is the elite of the elite of the Xia army, compared to them, we can't even talk about a rabble, just with these 100,000 soldiers and horses, the Xia army can destroy our Qarluq department three times" In the early morning of the next day, with the sound of war drums of dong, dong, and dong, the Xia army and the Qarlu soldiers drove to the preset position one after another, and Xiao Zhuozi came to Li Liangzuo's side and said: "Your Majesty's army is ready, please give your Majesty's order." ” Li Liangzuo personally went into battle and commanded: "The whole army listens to the order, and the crossbowmen and catapults are ready for me to aim at the turks on the city wall."

"Shoot the Arrow" With Li Liangzuo's order, tens of thousands of arrow feathers formed a rain of arrows to gallop towards the city of Talas, the arrow feathers pierced the air poof, poof, the sound is faintly visible, although Li Liangzuo is very eager to attack the city, but there is no blind onslaught, Li Liangzuo's purpose in doing this, on the one hand, is to prevent large-scale unnecessary casualties in the army, on the other hand, to exercise the ability of the Xia army to siege the city.

The Xia army's bows and crossbows and catapults were full of firepower, but the Xia army did not launch a fierce charge, but hid in the rushing car, the nest car, the shield car, etc., and steadily advanced step by step, among which Li Liangzuo used an unprecedented weapon in this siege battle, which Li Liangzuo called the siege car; The entire wallcar was assembled in front of the battle, the wallcar was about fifty meters long and ten meters wide, and above the wallcar was a semi-enclosed defensive room, in which a large number of crossbowmen and sword and shield soldiers were hidden, and once they were close to the enemy's wall, these sword and shield soldiers would swarm out.

Such a large siege machine is easy to be attacked by the siege equipment, in order to ensure the solidity of the siege equipment, Li Liangzuo ordered to put on iron armor in all important key parts, in time is not particularly important place, Li Liangzuo also used the skin to wrap it, the siege wall is more of an experiment, due to the huge size of the siege city wall is very slow to advance to catch up with the snail.
