    The Tibetan army was so powerful that the sound of hooves was like thunder, which shook the ground and stirred up smoke and dust into the sky.  If viewed from the air, the Tubo army was overwhelming, rushing towards the Tang army like a tide.

    Contrary to the Tibetan army, the Tang army still made no sound and watched quietly as the Tibetan army rushed over with scimitars and howling.  For the Tang army, the Tubo army seemed to not exist.

    When the Tubo army entered the firing range of the Tang army, the Tang army, which had been silent for a long time, finally moved. The Fuyuan crossbow fired its power, and raindrop-like arrows shot towards the Tubo army with a sharp whistling sound. Many of those who were hit by the arrows fell off their horses.

    The most powerful crossbow in Chinese history is of course the Qin Dynasty's large-scale repeating crossbow. The Qin Dynasty's large-scale repeating crossbow was expensive to make, but its power was also extremely powerful. The arrows were as thick as an arm and nearly ten feet long, not to mention flesh and blood.  His body, even stones will break when encountering such crossbow arrows.

    Although the power of the Fuyuan Crossbow is not as powerful as the large-scale repeating crossbows of the Qin State, its power is not small. It is beyond the endurance of the Tubo army wearing leather armor. Many people were shot through, and some Tubo soldiers were very surprised.  He found a transparent hole in his body, then he fell off his horse, his eyes went dark, and he died.

    With just one round of shooting, the Tibetan soldiers suffered heavy casualties.  However, they were not afraid, and no one flinched. They howled and continued to charge, and they were still greeted by dense crossbow arrows.

    When the Tubo soldiers rushed into the shooting range of Zhang Zhang's crossbow, the Tang army's arrows became more dense, and more Tubo soldiers were injured.  Later, horned crossbows and single-bowed crossbows were used together. The arrows were raining as densely as raindrops. It was impossible for flies, let alone people, to escape from the arrows. More and more Tibetan soldiers were hit by arrows.  Pieces fell down in pieces.

    The ones in front fell down, and the Tibetan soldiers behind them rushed forward without hesitation. They stepped on the corpses of their companions, and a small blood flower was splashed with every step they took. However, no one was afraid and they moved forward indomitably.

    When they entered the range of the Tang Army's bows and arrows, the Tang Army began to fire arrows.  After firing the arrows, the heavy infantry emerged, waving the Mo Dao in their hands, and gave the Tibetan army a head-on attack.  One after another, the sword flashes flashed, and the surviving Tubo soldiers were chopped into pieces. Not a single Tubo soldier could breathe.

    In this way, the first round of the Tubo army's offensive was completely wiped out. In addition to thousands of corpses, there was endless blood on the ground.

    On the other hand, the casualties of the Tang army were pitifully small, less than a hundred people.  It was a miracle that less than twenty people were killed.

    In the Battle of Doma, Cheng Xiaotian used light cavalry with a single type of troops. Although he inflicted heavy casualties on the Tibetan army with his flexible tactics, after all, the troops were single type and did not have good coordination.  When Fei Junxing and Guo Qianguan arrived later, they rushed into the battlefield in a hurry and could not be called cooperative at all.

    In the battle to capture the Nu River, Ge Shuhan led the heavy infantry to come to the rescue. The same problem was that the troops were single and there was no cooperation, so Chide Zuzan was asked to withdraw.

    It¡¯s different now. The Tang army has multiple arms fighting together. If they cooperate well, the power will be great, much greater.  Therefore, the casualties of the Tubo army were extremely high, while the cost of the Tang army was pitifully small.

    Although the first wave of the Tubo army's offensive collapsed, they fought very bravely. Facing the dense rain of arrows from the Tang army, no one was afraid and no one flinched. This made the Tang army's generals admire them very much.

    ¡°That¡¯s pretty much it, he looks like a man!¡± Fei Junxing nodded in approval.

    Cheng Xiaotian commented with a smile: "Compared to those weaklings yesterday, they are much stronger! This is what we call the army! Even if we die, we must die in a decent manner and with a heroic spirit!"

    "Commander, it's our turn to attack!" Ge Shuhan asked for orders.

    Guo Qiangguan waved his hand and said: "General Geshu, it's not time yet. The Tibetans will still attack. We have to wait until their morale is exhausted before launching an attack!"

    According to common sense, Guo Qianguan is right.  Although the Tibetan army's first attack collapsed, their morale was still there and they would attack immediately.  Using the Tang army's powerful crossbows to effectively kill them and then counterattack would be much more effective.

    Ge Shuhan had another opinion: "Commander, the general thinks it's time for us to attack now! This is a battle of morale, we can't lose to them. Commander, you see, although the first wave of Tibetan attacks suffered heavy casualties,  But they are not afraid. On the contrary, those soldiers are full of energy and momentum. We have to knock them out of their energy and let them know that our Tang Army is not only good at defense, but also good at attack!"

    "Commander, what General Ge Shu said makes sense!" Zhang said and immediately agreed.

    Chen Wanrong took note of the reaction of the Tibetan army. As Ge Shuhan said, after the first round of defeat, the Tibetan army became more powerful than Shicai. It was time to send themThe most protective parts of the Mingguang Armor are the heart and vest. If a heart guard is added here, the Tubo Forbidden Army actually stabs the heart, which is a problem for itself.

    "Don't he know that it's impossible to pierce the breast mirror?" Chen Wanrong muttered secretly, picked up the horse's spear, jumped on his horse, pulled out his saber, and started to kill.

    Chen Wanrong's fall from his horse had already alarmed his brother Shu Han, who was not far from him. He was relieved when he saw him remounting his horse.

    Not only are the artillery's horses better than the Forbidden Army's spears, but they are also better at slashing and killing.  As the swords flew horizontally, the Forbidden Army fell off their horses one after another. Wherever the artillery went, the Forbidden Army was bound to be emptied, and it was difficult for anyone to be an enemy of them.

    Chi De Zuzan saw all this and couldn't help but frown.  The Tubo generals around him looked at the artillery in surprise. One general said quickly: "This is the Longwu Army! It's the Longwu Army of the Tang Dynasty!"

    "That's right! This is the Longwu Army!" Chi De Zuzan nodded in agreement with him: "Only the Longwu Army of the Tang Dynasty has such combat power! Not to mention they are tall, they are very skilled, and they are all equipped with precious Mingguang Armor.  Only the Longwu Army has such conditions!"

    Mingguang armor is very useful, but because it is difficult to make, only very special armies will equip it.  In addition, only officers and generals can have Mingguang Armor.  When Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty conquered Korea, two of the four cavalry units were equipped with Mingguang armor, which caused the Koreans to suffer a lot.

    "Zanpu, the Longwu Army of the Tang Army are very precious, they should be eaten!" A general suggested.

    Although the number of artillery troops is small, their combat power is extraordinary. The Tubo Forbidden Army is already the most elite army in Tubo, but they are still unable to fight back when encountering artillery. Wherever the artillery goes, the Forbidden Army is killed and injured.

    The protective ability of iron armor is very good, but it is not without its weak points. The neck, arms, legs and horses are all its weak points.  The artillerymen are all warriors chosen from thousands of places. They are even better than the Longwu Army controlled by Ge Fushun. If they specifically target these weaknesses, how can the Tubo army resist them?

    Although the artillery's horses have no protective capabilities, because the artillery is clever and specializes in finding the weaknesses of the Forbidden Army, it is simply impossible for the Forbidden Army to "shoot the man first and the horse".

    By the way, by the Tang Dynasty, heavy cavalry no longer existed.  Heavy cavalry was once glorious in Chinese history. Starting from the Tang Dynasty, heavy cavalry was no longer formed. They were all light cavalry. The reason will not be explained here.

    If the artillery was eaten, it would be a big blow to the morale of the Tang army. Chide Zuzan agreed with this proposal. Before he could speak, he was surprised to find a familiar figure riding a green horse.  Rushing to kill.  I couldn't help but feel very excited: "Send the order: Send 10,000 more forbidden troops up! Capture the man on the green horse alive! He must be alive!"

    Although the generals did not know what his intentions were, they still carried out his orders. Ten thousand Tibetan imperial troops marched out of the barracks and faced Chen Wanrong's artillery.

    Artillery vs. Forbidden Forces, a peak showdown between tit-for-tat and wheat-mang begins!  (To be continued. If you want to know about the funeral, please log on to www.qidian.com.
