Chapter 229: The decision of the Zamp, the general is bound to die in battle

"All the mistakes are my fault. Please punish me."

Mojie Sangdongzebu apologized to Chidai Zhudan in public.

He looked extremely terrified, thinking that it was his own strategy that had completely worn out his side's fighting spirit.

"Please ask Zanpu Lianchen to punish them together. I fully support the Grand Theory Dongzebu..."

Seeing Chidai Zhudan's face changing from gloomy to bright, Meiluqiongsang Woermang also stood up and bowed to Chidai Zhudan.

"You two great scholars, please return to your seats! Ministers offer advice and the monarch adopts it. Man proposes, God disposes. I will not pursue this matter."

Chidai Zhudan was able to serve as the Zamp for more than 40 years, so he has some emotional intelligence.

If he blames everyone for this kind of thing, the army's morale will be shaken.

What's more, at first Chidai Zhudan also thought that Mojie Sangdongzebu's plan was perfect.

"Thank you, Zanpu!"

After Mojie Sangdongzebu and Moluqiong Sangwoermang bowed to Chidaizhudan, they returned to their seats.

"Alas! I am now considering whether to fight the Tang army to the death in Dafeichuan or retreat back to the snowy plateau."

"We just got intelligence that Li Xuan is not only the governor of Hexi and Longyou, but also the governor of Shuofang and Hedong. He can dispatch troops from Shuofang and Hedong to provide support. The Huihe people have become spineless and dare not threaten Li Xuan anymore."

Chidai Zhudan was wavering.

When Tubo was in internal instability, he led the army in person to try to turn the situation around, to prove that Tubo had the strength to challenge the Tang Dynasty and to prove his great talent and strategy.

While the glory of victory has not yet faded, Dafeichuanwai seems to be shrouded in fog, with an unknown future.

"Zamp, in the battle of Dafeichuan, Xue Rengui went deep into Dafeichuan and first attacked our army by surprise in Duoma, and then took the opportunity to occupy Wuhai City (now Doucuo Lake), with the momentum of advancing directly to Luoshui. But in the end, we still turned the defeat into victory. Today's small setback is insignificant compared to the big setback decades ago. It is still Dafeichuan, which is the blessed land of our Tubo. We will definitely defeat the Tang army and take back Jiuqu. Even if the Tang army has troops from Heshuo joining, they are not as strong as our army."

When Meiluqiongsang and Woermang saw that Chidaizhudan had lost confidence in the battle, he immediately came out to cheer him up.

Finally, he gave Chidai Zhudan a hint: "You are determined to become a great king. How will the world view you if you retreat?"

Chidai Zhudan wanted to become a monarch with unparalleled achievements like Songtsen Gampo, so he formulated ambitious expansion plans and repeatedly provoked the Tang Dynasty.

If we flee without a fight this time, forty years of hard work will be defeated in one day.

Because Chidai Zhudan was young when he first succeeded to the throne, the political power was controlled by his grandmother, Molu.

At that time, the ministers Dairen Banonangzha and Kaigui Duonang rebelled in Nara Mountain, and the vassal states of Nipola and Xili in the southwest also rebelled. It was the Molu clan that put down the rebellion and consolidated the regime.

Jiuqu was also acquired when the Lu family was in power.

The land of Qinghai, the former lands of Dangxiang, Tuyuhun and Bailang Qiang, is also the result of the efforts of our ancestors.

The ruler and beads split the Boluo into large and small Boluo.

But Xiao Bolü had just been lost, which greatly reduced the merits of Chidai Zhudan.

Other developments in Hehuang had long been wasted because of Li Xuan.

It is conceivable that if Chidai Zhudan had withdrawn from Qinghai, there would be no place for Chidai Zhudan as a wise ruler in the history of Tubo.

In fact, Chidai Zhudan's achievements in domestic affairs are a link between the past and the future, and are very good.

Meiluqiongsang Woermang is the prime minister assisting Chidai Zhudan and has served as prime minister for twenty years. He does not want to see Chidai Zhudan's achievements destroyed.

He devoted a lot of effort to the Chidai Zhudan.

Even though he had gray hair and could not ride a horse alone, he still hoped that Chidai Zhudan could become a great leader.

Meiluqiongsang Woermang's words made many nobles and tribal kings feel dissatisfied.

In this case, it is more in their interest to withdraw directly.

Otherwise, if a war breaks out, even if we win, there will be heavy casualties.

Of course, people like the Dangxiang King and the Tuyuhun King hoped to fight to the end.

Their territory is around Qinghai.

If they lose Qinghai, they will have to live under the protection of others. Will the Suobei and Tongjia people be able to accommodate them?
Chidai Zhudan was also extremely melancholy. In the 29th year of Kaiyuan, he led the army in person, captured Tieren City, conquered Dahua, and penetrated deep into the Tang army's Longyou area.

How high-spirited and ambitious he was when he stood on Tieren City and pointed out the scenery of Hehuang.

The scene where all things are competing and full of vitality is still before our eyes.

He believed that Tubo's national strength was far greater than during the time of Songtsen Gampo, and in fact it was true!
He once thought that he would occupy Helong and completely swallow up the Western Regions.

Now, just a few years have passed, and it seems like a dream!
"Your Excellency, Zamp, we are ready to fight and cannot retreat. Looking at the Tang army's deployment, we can attack or defend. If we retreat rashly, we will need to leave 50,000 warriors behind and bring 50,000 slaves to cover our retreat!"

"Will ceding Qinghai satisfy Li Xuan's appetite? Will burying 100,000 warriors in the Dafei River and the blood stop the Tang army?"

"When the Tang army crosses the Dafei River and enters Wuhai City, Wuhai City will also collapse. Will the eleven Dongdai in Tongjia and the eleven Dongdai in Subi still be intact?"

"With Baihai gone, can Songtsen Gampo rest in peace in heaven?"

"Is the Bayankala Mountains really a natural barrier? A bridge with Li Xuan's name engraved on it will be built over the Tongtian River. When the Tang army enters the basin, our grain-growing land will be gone..."

"What will be left of Luoshui City by then?"

"We will even lose the chance to look south to Tianzhu!"

"Zanpu, please forgive my rudeness, please think carefully."

Just then, Nlanda Zalukong stood up and said.

He was filled with righteous indignation, not only facing Chidai Zhudan, but also facing people like the King of Subi, the King of Tongjia, the King of Zhangzhung, as well as the nobles and generals.

Why must the warriors be the rear guard?
Because everyone knows that being the last one to be killed is a dead end.

By letting Tongjia, Tuyuhun, Dangxiang and Subi cover the rear, Enlanda Zhalugong believed that they would surrender directly.

Slaves are even more impossible!

Because they are slaves in life and slaves in death. Without the Tubo to drive them away, it would be better to expect a ram to give birth than to expect a group of slaves to fight to the death for the country.

Therefore, there must be enough warriors and enough slaves to set up battle lines on the wide Dafei River to cover the withdrawal of the main force of Tubo.

Even if we lose 100,000 men, it would be enough if we can preserve Tubo for ten years.

But Enlanda Zhalugong, Moluqiongsang Woermang and Mojiesang Dongzebu believed that Li Xuan would not give up.

The main reason is that they can't see into Li Xuan's heart.

Li Xuan's aggressiveness gave them the illusion that Li Xuan wanted to destroy Tubo.

This illusion did not arise without reason. When Xue Rengui led his troops, he "used Lhasa (Lāshīyya City) as the pretext for the expedition."

From his deep penetration into Tubo, the surprise attack on Duma, and the occupation of Wuhai City, it can be seen that Xue Rengui was clearly planning to attack Huanglong directly.

Under such circumstances, the two prime ministers and Nlanda Zalukung insisted on fighting.

Nlanda Zhalugong had always been supported by Meiluqiongsang Woermang. Due to Meiluqiongsang Woermang's strength, all the nobles and kings held back their words and dared not refute him.

The entire tent suddenly became silent, except for the breathing sounds, you could hear a pin drop.

Chidai Zhudan grabbed his beard, and veins on his hands bulged.

His ministers were right. Compromise would only make Li Xuan worse. He did not want to be regarded as an incompetent monarch by future generations.

He obviously works so hard!
"Fight! Fight! If we retreat, the Tang army will definitely invade Dongdai in Subi. Please ask the Zamp to transfer my troops from Dafei Mountain. I will fight to the death with the Tang army in Dafei River."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mei Lingzan's eyes rolled and he immediately stood up to express his loyalty.

"King Subi is loyal and brave! We will allow you to bring your troops back and fight alongside us."

Seeing that King Subi actually took the initiative to seek a fight, Chidai Zhudan was very pleased.

A friend in need is a friend indeed. It seems that Dalon Jiongsang also has a wrong vision. Meilingzan is more suitable for the position of King Subi than Meiluzan!

The ruler and beads also expressed the determination to fight against the Tang army.

After weighing the pros and cons, he no longer backed down!
"In the second battle of Dafeichuan, my Tubo will still win. Let the story of Li Xuan end here. The generals above the rank of a thousand men will take Li Xuan's head and be appointed as the next Dalun; the warriors who kill Li Xuan will be granted a title of Dayu, and I will marry my daughter to him and reward him with a thousand slaves; the slaves who kill Li Xuan will be granted a title of Dayu, be made nobles, and be given fiefdoms..."

Since the survival of Tubo was at stake, Chidai Zhudan offered the greatest possible reward in an attempt to restore the morale of the soldiers.

"Zanpu, you brought us together so that we could kill Li Xuan, didn't you? We have always been courageous. Please wait and see. I will definitely tear off Li Xuan's head and present it to Zanpu."

Chenbale couldn't bear it any longer, he stood up and shouted in a loud voice.

The Eighteen Fierce Generals were the eighteen most powerful men in Tubo.

Although Tongyahu was known as the most powerful general in Ye Ru at that time, he was still far behind Chenbale and Shangduoer.

They also specifically studied Li Xuan from the surviving soldiers.

As long as Chenbaler and Shang Duojieer rushed forward together, Li Xuan would be beheaded.

What's more, there are three fierce generals who are no worse than Tongya Hu, and each of the other fierce generals can fight against dozens of people.

"Your Majesty, I am confident. I have found a way to deal with Li Xuan. If he dares to stand up and fight, I will use my iron spear to carry him to see the Majesty."

Chandorger also made harsh remarks.

The two of them spoke more arrogantly than each other, almost making the ministers and kings present think that Li Xuan was like a lamb to be slaughtered.

The sense of awe has been greatly reduced!

"Good! You two are both brave warriors of the country and must be the reincarnation of gods. I believe you can kill Li Xuan."

Chidai Zhudan stood up and seeing Shang Duojieer and Chenbale looking confident, he suddenly felt that everything was fine again.

He has changed his mind and decides not to put Li Xuan's head on the altar. Instead, he plans to make a wine vessel with Li Xuan's head to relieve his hatred.

"Should our army attack or defend? Tell me what you think!"

Now, Chidai Zhudan wants to discuss the most important issue.

"If our army defends, Li Xuan will definitely confront us again due to his treachery and cunningness. Now we have lost the food and grass in Fuqi City, and the road for transporting food and supplies on the ancient road of Fuqi City. Our food and grass pressure is huge. Even if food is transported to the Dafeichuan Ancient Road, it will be difficult to sustain for two months. So our army cannot defend!"

Meiluqiongsangwoermang said this in a decisive tone.

Li Xuan is definitely not a reckless man. He likes to use his brain and has great self-control.

"That's attack!"

Chidai Zhudan believes that it is either defense or attack.

"Hundreds of thousands of people fighting together will be extremely chaotic. The Tang army has too many powerful crossbows, no armored soldiers, and more cavalry than us. We will be at a disadvantage."

Meiluqiongsangwoermang said again.

"No defense, no attack, what's the logic behind this?"

Chidai Zhudan frowned.

Although he felt that what Meiluqiongsang and Woermang said made sense, he was now in a difficult situation and had to make a choice.

"The Han Chinese's "Sun Tzu" says: "There is no constant state of war, and there is no constant shape of water." There is also a saying that surprise is the key to victory. Our army is close to the Tang army. I think our infantry will hold the ground, and the main cavalry will contain the Tang cavalry. We will send elite cavalry to raid the Tang army's edge camp at night, and then quickly return. Or we can use other small battles to annihilate the Tang army's forces and make them panic."

Mo Luqiongsangwoerman suggested to take Zhudan as an example.

The Tang army camps were arranged on three sides of the Dafei River, stretching for a hundred miles.

Taking into account factors such as fire attack, the camps will not be very densely packed.

While holding back the main cavalry, they broke through a camp and quickly evacuated before the Tang army's reinforcements arrived.

Even if it is difficult to kill a large number of Tang troops at once, we must give them a psychological shock and boost their morale.

"The grand plan is feasible!"

When Chidai Zhudan looked at the other generals, the generals spoke one after another.

"Okay! Let's follow Dalun Jiongsang's plan. Tonight, the Lion and Tiger Guards will attack the outermost camp of the Tang Army, and the other cavalry will cooperate."

Chidai Zhudan also agreed with Moluqiongsang Woermang's strategy.

"The Zanpu needs to go among the soldiers in person to boost morale and let the soldiers see the Zanpu's determination."

Mojie Sangdongzebu stood up and reminded Chidai Zhudan.

"The country unified by Songtsen Gampo should not collapse here. Let's work hard. Come with me to comfort the soldiers."

"Give orders that from today on, when warriors eat beef and mutton, slaves will eat with them."

After saying this, Chidai Zhudan led the ministers and kings of various tribes out of the tent.

When Chidai Zhudan told the warriors and slaves the news that he would kill Li Xuan and receive the highest reward, it was not greeted with much enthusiasm.

Because a long time ago, there was a promise to kill Li Xuan and grant him a jade seal.

But you have to be able to kill!
On that occasion, Li Xuan, carrying women and children, detoured through Qinghai for thousands of miles and was surrounded and intercepted by tens of thousands of cavalrymen. However, they killed all the cavalrymen and beheaded the famous general Mo Lu Xie Qu.

Immediately afterwards, Chidai Zhudan promised a generous reward for meritorious service.

For example, if a knight made meritorious service, the Zamp would personally reward him with a tiger-skin horse mat to show his honor.

You can become a nobleman through military merit and marry the daughter of a nobleman.

The six kinds of official certificates, namely jade, gold, prajna (gold-coated silver), silver, copper and iron, as well as the granted land and slaves included in the official certificates, were easier to obtain than before.

As long as you kill a Tang army general, you can get a bronze certificate; if you kill the Tang army's deputy envoy or the guard envoy, you will be granted a silver certificate; if you kill the Tang army's main general, you will be granted a Polami certificate; if you kill the Tang army's deputy envoy, the governor's judge, or the military envoy, you will be granted a gold certificate.

In addition, as long as five Tang army soldiers are killed, you will be rewarded with an iron certificate.

This promise is much more reliable than killing Li Xuan.

Finally restored some morale.

Tubo also began to send roaming cavalry to hunt down the Tang army's scouts who were densely distributed in Dafeichuan and Dafeiling.

Since Tubo had a large number of roving troops, the Tang army's scouts did not dare to confront them head-on.

But the Tang army certainly could not let the soldiers of Dayechuan out of their sight.

After a while, a large number of Tang army light cavalry poured out from the camps to compete with the Tubo mobile army in riding and archery.

In a small space, you chase me and I chase you.

Tubo deliberately controlled the scale of the battle, and even though the cavalry and archery were at a disadvantage, they did not send more cavalry to join in. The battle lasted until late at night, and the Tubo cavalry was not good at cavalry and archery, and ended in a miserable defeat.

They just found the right gap and drove away the Tang army scouts in front of the Lion and Tiger Guards.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the eighteen fierce generals of Tibet personally led two thousand iron cavalry of the Lion and Tiger Guards and one thousand heavy cavalry wearing chain mail, and under the cover of another seven thousand Tibetan light cavalry, they took advantage of the cover of night to raid a camp more than thirty miles away in the northeast direction.

This camp is the Ningkou Army of the Tang Dynasty.

After losing the Chishui Army in Hexi, the Ningkou Army was stationed in Juyan Lake to defend against the Uighurs. It was the largest military force in Hexi.

Before this battle, Ning Kou's army brought 3,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry.

The reason why Tubo raided this camp was that this camp was close to Dafei Mountain, was the westernmost camp of the Tang army, and was the slowest to provide support from the Tang army.

Although the time to act was short, Tubo used its most elite troops and its bravest generals to try to save face.

Although the Tang army's scouts were driven away, there were dense sentries around them.

"Woo...Woo..."

When the sentry noticed that the Tibetan cavalry was charging, he blew the horn to indicate an enemy attack.

Other sentries followed suit and blew their horns.

Soon, the sound of horns echoed throughout the camp on all sides.

Li Xuan had not arrived yet, so An Sishun and Gao Xiuyan ordered the cavalry in the rear to mount their horses while letting all the military camps respond with all their strength.

In fact, Li Xuan had already ordered at least one third of the cavalry to sleep with their horses.

There were also one-third infantrymen to guard the camps.

"It looks like the camp of the Ningkou army. Cavalry should go to support them immediately!"

Hearing the horns and drums from the Ningkou army, An Sishun ordered the cavalry to provide assistance.

The Tang army's camps were staggered, with the infantry camp in the front and the cavalry camp in the rear.

This is a standard attack formation. Li Xuan was worried that Tubo would escape from Dayuechuan, so he requested to set up this kind of formation.

In this way, within a short period of time, a large number of cavalry could rush out from behind and pursue and block the Tibetan fleeing soldiers.

The disadvantage is that the defense of such a camp is not as good as that of a normal camp.

When the Tang army's horn sounded, Tubo also blew the horn of attack.

Another 90,000 cavalrymen appeared at the same time and pressed towards the Tang army together.

When the Tang army's light cavalry learned of this situation, they dared not to fight.

Quickly inform An Sishun and Gao Xiuyan of the news.

An Sishun and Gao Xiuyan had to order the Chishui, Hexi Hu cavalry, and Bailang Qiang cavalry to withdraw to resist the Tubo cavalry.

At the same time, a fast horse sent a message to Li Xuan who was approaching Dafeiling.

If Tubo insists on fighting, this may be an opportunity for the Tang army.

In terms of the number of cavalry, the Tang army had the advantage.

There is also the Modao Army that can restrain the cavalry, with tens of thousands of powerful crossbows!
The Modao Army under Zhang Xing put on inner and outer armor and stood in front of several large camps of the Chishui Army, waiting for the arrival of the Tibetan cavalry.

Ningsai Army.

The Tang army's chevaux de frise were placed in front of the camp, and bags of caltrops were thrown on the open field in front of the camp.

In the rear camp, the cavalry was in position.

The Ningkou cavalry were all light cavalry. They bypassed the caltrops and went to the wilderness, ready to shoot at the Tibetan cavalry.

Next to the Ningkou Army was the combined camp of the Doulu and Moli Armies.

Their cavalry came out first to support Ning Kou's army.

A little further away is the camp formed by the Jiankang Army and the Yumen Army.

The Tang cavalry provided support very quickly.

But there were not many cavalrymen in these camps, and they were light cavalry.

The light cavalry of the Tibetan Tiger and Lion Imperial Guards arrived first and blocked the cavalry of the Hexi Army.

In addition to iron armor, the warriors of the Tibetan Imperial Guards all wore leather armor, and their archery skills were better than those of the Tibetan cavalry.

The seven thousand Tiger and Lion Light Cavalry, when the elite cavalry of the Tang army was unable to provide support, chased and fought with the Hexi Light Cavalry.

Their real purpose was to cover their own armored cavalry and iron cavalry to attack the Ningkou army camp of the Tang army.

Not long after the Tiger-Lion Light Cavalry appeared, the Tibetan armored cavalry arrived with full equipment.

Both the men and the horses were wearing chain mail, and the Tibetan cavalry was well-equipped and powerful.

"Boom!"

Along with the earth-shaking sound, the Tibetan armored cavalry roared and shouted.

Shang Duore was worried that the Tang army would set up caltrops, so he ordered the armored cavalry to be divided into two teams, to make a detour to the left and right and attack the Tang army camp together.

The flank of a camp is always the weakest.

"Damn it! Tubo didn't attack from the front!"

Ningkou Army Commander Dugu Dan slapped his thigh in great anger.

Not only caltrops, he also placed triple antlers in front of him, and now there was no time to adjust the position.

Although the Tang army had many caltrops, it was impossible for them to be placed in all directions.

"General, General An ordered you to hold on. Our crossbowmen and armored soldiers are heading this way!"

The messenger entered the camp from the rear and reported to Dugu Dan.

The cavalry of the various armies was pinned down by the Tibetan cavalry, so An Sishun could only send infantry to support them.

The cavalry of the Doulu and Moli armies nearby were already helping the Ningkou army, but the infantry had to guard their own camps.

"Strong crossbows and archers, gather on both sides and hold them with spears!"

Although Dugu Dan placed the caltrops in the wrong place, he immediately organized the soldiers in the camp to form a tight defense.

The Ningkou army has five hundred crossbows, which can penetrate iron armor within fifty steps.

He placed two hundred strong crossbowmen on each side of the camp, and just in case, he also placed a hundred strong crossbowmen at the rear of the camp.

Although there are no enemies ahead, we still need 500 infantrymen to defend.

"Clang clang clang!"

The Tang army archers shot arrows from a distance, but all the arrows were blocked by the Tibetan armored cavalry.

"emission!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Seeing that the armored cavalry had rushed to within fifty steps from the left and right wings, Dugu Dan ordered the crossbows to fire.

It was dark and it was difficult for the crossbowmen to aim.

A round of crossbow arrows only hit dozens of cavalrymen, and some powerful crossbows even failed to penetrate the Tibetan cavalry's armor and equipment.

Because chain mail is linked together ring by ring, it can effectively prevent arrows from penetrating the flesh.

At such a close distance, after the Tang army fired a powerful crossbow and just drew the bowstring, the Tibetan cavalry had already rushed to the front of the chevaux de frise.

"Crack!"

The Tibetan cavalry were well-armored and fearless, and they steered their horses to crash into the barricades.

The chevaux de frise was shattered into pieces by the impact.

The war horses also screamed and fell to the ground, and the armored cavalry on those horses were either dead or injured.

Tubo selected its death squad and, at the cost of sacrificing its armor and equipment, had already planned to ram the Tang army's barricades.

Tubo only needs one victory!
Behind the chevaux de frise were the Tang army’s large shields and long spears.

Tubo is still rampant.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

Although the Tubo fought with a desperate attitude, they failed to disperse the Tang army's armored spear teams.

At least there were hundreds of elite Tang troops guarding each side.

However, at this time, the fierce Tibetan general Shang Duore'er led two thousand armored cavalry and went around to the rear of the Ningsai Army's infantry camp.

At Shang Duojie'er's command, two thousand cavalrymen dismounted in unison.

Spear, sword, charge forward.

"Shhhhhh!"

When the Tang army's crossbowmen were shooting with their crossbows, hundreds of Tibetan soldiers swung their slings together and fought against the Tang army's crossbowmen.

"Bang bang bang..."

Faced with the flying stones, the crossbowmen can hide behind the large shield in time.

Some Tibetan soldiers fell, but after all, there were too many of them, and a hundred crossbowmen could not shoot them all.

"Clang!"

The lion-tiger armored soldiers removed the chevaux de frise and immediately engaged in battle with the Tang army.

Spears clashed with lances, the sound of metal clanging was endless, and roars and shouts were constant.

However, the deployment of the Ningkou army in the rear was relatively weak compared to the two wings.

Faced with the fierce attack of the Tibetan soldiers, they were at a disadvantage in an instant.

Upon learning that the entire battle line was showing signs of collapse, Dugu Dan had to dispatch troops to reinforce the rear of the camp.

"Crack!"

The fierce Tibetan general Chenbale took a long-handled hammer and smashed the shield of the Tang army, breaking the shield into pieces.

The Tang soldier holding the shield was also smashed to death by Chen Bale.

Before the support of the Tang army arrived, Chenbale led several fierce generals and rushed into the Tang army's defense line.

"Oh!"

Even if the Tang army was wearing armor, they would be killed by Chenbale's hammer and die a tragic death.

Wherever he went, he hammered, and no Tang army soldier could match him.

The other powerful generals of Tubo were also not to be underestimated. Although the Tang army's border troops were elite, they were still not as good as the powerful generals selected from all over the country by Tubo.

After a hole was torn open, all the powerful generals of Tubo rushed in.

Like a flood bursting a dam.

Many crossbowmen were killed before they had a chance to resist.

Shang Duojie was even more ferocious. He stabbed a Ya general to death with his iron spear and even picked up the body of a Tang general.

Although he couldn't throw people away like Li Xuan, it was shocking enough.

When Dugu Dan saw the Tubo army breaking into the camp, he rushed forward with his personal guards without hesitation, trying to hold off the defeated front.

But he was facing Shang Duore'er, the most powerful general of Tubo.

The two men clashed, and the personal guards fought against each other.

Shang Duojie stabbed Dugudan with a spear.

"clang!"

Dugu Dan was also a fierce general, and he was promoted based on his military achievements. But his military strength was far inferior to that of Shang Duore.

His spear collided with the iron spear and was broken instantly.

"Pfft!"

Shang Duojieer swiftly returned the spear and, taking advantage of the situation, stabbed Dugu Dan to death with one spear.

Then he attacked Dugu Dan's personal guards, killing them one by one with his spear.

The Tang army was defeated and retreated step by step.

Under the butterfly effect, the two wings of the Tang army, which could have defended against the Tibetan armored cavalry, now collapsed because of the rush of Tibetan armored soldiers.

"Quickly evacuate this camp!"

The deputy envoy of the Ningkou army sounded the horn and decisively retreated to the camps of Doulu and Moli.

Their reinforcements will arrive soon, so they need to rely on the next door camp to continue to hold on, otherwise they will be killed by the armored cavalry and armored soldiers...

"Woo...Woo..."

The infantry and crossbowmen of the Ningsai army suffered heavy casualties. Shang Duojie was not satisfied with killing a main general and wanted to continue the pursuit when he heard the horn of his own cavalry.

These were a thousand Tang army heavy-armored infantrymen who rushed over from the camps of Yumen and Jiankang armies.

Their formation was dense, with their spears pointing outward.

There are more Tang army reinforcements in the rear!

"withdraw!"

Chandorger did not linger in the battle. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, he immediately ordered his soldiers to mount their horses and retreat...

(End of this chapter)
