The next day, before dawn, the Tang army soldiers got up and made a meal and ate it. Then, after about two hours of march, they arrived near Heisha City, just in time to be full or hungry. This was a good time to fight.
The 10,000 Tang troops were divided into five governments (departments) by five middle-level generals, and set up formations in groups two miles south of Heisha City.
The Turks were also prepared, and from a distance, you could vaguely see that all their cavalry were arranged on both sides of the city.
The two sides were ready to fight again.
After observing the enemy's arrangement, Du Xian told his generals: The purpose of the Turkic cavalry is to support the defenders and will not fight our army to death. It may be difficult to eat them first and then attack the city; the troops in besieged the city are insufficient.Only by seizing the fortifications of Heisha City and leaving its cavalry with nothing to rely on is the right way.
The staff reminded: It is reported that the Xianbei people also used the general's current strategy, but they failed to make up for it in the face of three pressures.
Du Xian smiled and said: The Xianbei people are not good at siegeing cities. Even our Tang army can still give the Turks a sense of knowledge.
The tactical plan agreed that Du Xian would not delay and immediately ordered the preparation for the siege.He is white-skinned and fat, and he has a very elegant style, but he is quick and neat in orders, which is no different from the style of a military general, and all the generals are convinced.
Then Du Xian made an agreement with the generals of various departments to command signals, and matched them with three instruments: drum, horn and gold, with different rhythms corresponding to different horse teams.
Although it can only serve as a short-distance advance and retreat signal, the advantage is that it is more rapid and timely.
Of course, if it is a relatively complicated military order, you can only send someone to notify the generals.
The two sides faced each other on the battlefield, but like the darkness before dawn, the noise seemed extra tranquility.
When the camp saw someone running back and forth, the horses were neighing mixed with the shouts of the generals, just like the school ground where daily training was conducted, there was no blood or fire.
Du Xian finished explaining some details to the generals below, and after a moment of silence, he said: There are not many opportunities to attack the grassland from afar. I hope you will cherish the fighter opportunity and fight bravely on the blood debts of the people in the border areas!
He did not speak generously with all hissings, but said this lightly, which ignited the emotions of the generals. Suddenly, the generals were in an uproar and patted their chests and arms to show the Turks.
Seeing this, a civil servant took the opportunity to stir up the flames: Since the Wuzhou Dynasty, Mochu Khan plundered Hebei and other places for the first time to 90,000 people were killed and injured. Since then, from the west to the border of Longyou Road to Hebei Road, the east of Longyou Road, the east of Hebei Road, many times were ravaged by Turkic cavalry, and the family was destroyed and the number of people killed was 100,000. The husband watched his wife and daughter being humiliated, and the filial son was slaughtered by his parents. The Turks regarded our people of the Tang Dynasty as a lamb. Now our iron cavalry of the Tang Dynasty went abroad, so how could the soldiers be bloodless?
In the midst of the noise, some people shouted to kill the enemy and serve the country, and everyone was full of morale with hatred.Du Xian drew his sword and shouted: Wherever the light goes, eliminate barbarians and darkness.Set off!
The entire army then advanced forward across the Wujia River. Du Xian was brave in his general Fan Shuhu, so he ordered him to be the foreman to kill the troops at the city, winning the opportunity for the siege troops behind him.
The Tang army vanguard rode his horse and rushed straight to the south gate, which also prevented the Turkic cavalry from luring the enemy. The Turkic soldiers attacked the Tang army vanguard from the east and west sides according to law. At this time, Du Xianzhong's army drums and whistles played together, and the cavalry on both wings charged forward to fight.
The crossbows and stone throwers on the city also began to fire burning fireballs and rockets, and for a moment, the flames and smoke rose everywhere.
The cavalry rushed together and the swords danced together, and blood splattered.
The Heisha City was once again in the torment of blood and fire.
With the barrier of left and right cavalry, Fan Shuhu's army rushed to the city, charged back and forth and rode on his back and forth. The rockets on the city were like rain of fire. The vanguards were not killed or injured, but the horses suffered a lot. Even Fan Shuhu's mount was hit by an arrow and threw him down and fell down.
As soon as he got up from the ground, he jingled a few times on his helmet, but fortunately the arrow failed to shoot through the iron helmet.
Fan Shuhu was furious and drew his sword and waved it a few times. Unfortunately, the Turkic soldiers whipped it up on the city wall. He opened his temper and said, "He took the knife and slashed it hard on the earth wall." The sand and soil splashed.
Obviously, the cavalry siege without siege equipment was tragic. The Turks saw the Tang cavalry blocking the city and thought they wanted to use iron shovels to poach the corners.
If you really want to give up the cost and time, this method is also feasible. Sometimes nomadic cavalry such as the Turks are determined to break through the Han people's cities.
At this moment, another Tang soldiers came up behind Fan Shuhu's Hu family. Those people were sword and shield infantry composed of abandoned horses. The people and horses were wearing cavalry armor and holding iron shields to march towards the city. Arrows could not pose a threat to them at all. The accuracy of the crossbows and catapults was completely insufficient and they could only fight randomly. In particular, the Turks were not good at using these things, and they did not use them much after learning to make them from Tang Dynasty craftsmen, so they could only let the infantry attack under the city wall calmly.
Occasionally, a fireball was thrown into the Tang army's infantry crowd, and the soldiers who were on fire all over the body would yell and roll on the ground. The horse soldiers between the regiment camps hurriedly took the wet quilt and went to rescue each other, and the attacking queue did not stop for a moment.
There were also small cars in the middle of the sword and shield soldiers, which were probably temporarily assembled, which was very different from the commonly used chariots of the Tang people. The Turkic soldiers on the city did not understand what they were used for. The small cars were obviously not ladders or siege cars.
The car was surrounded by heavy armored swords, shields and infantry soldiers. Only the stone throwing car could hit those cars. Unfortunately, the stone throwing car had a long range but could not hit it accurately. A fireball was thrown from the wall one after another. Only a blind cat hit the dead mouse and happened to land on the Tang army's chariot, but it was immediately bounced away.
It turned out that the roof of the car was covered with hard cowhide, which was not good at defending against sharp weapons, but was very elastic against things like stone fireballs and bounced away as soon as they touched them.
At this time, the Heisha City was really lively. Arrows and fireballs were flying in the air, horse soldiers were running, drums hit the iron man's swords, shields, infantry and military troops seemed to be training queues, yelling and killing sounds were heard, and fireworks rose only on the grassland.
On the top of Heisha City, the Turkic Left King Shiyugu couldn't help but ask Li Shizhi: What are the cars in the middle of the infantry?
Li Shizhi had been observing for a long time before, but he didn't understand what he was for. It was too small to attack the city.
Li Shizhi avoided talking about the thing and said: This team is an elite force. When I was in the border three cities, I never saw soldiers with such good armor.Looking at the left and right wings, the Turkic cavalry was twice theirs, and they actually took less than half a advantage. If the Tang army on the middle road continues like this, they can attack the city calmly without pressure... With defenses like Heisha City, even a state government in the Tang Dynasty, it is obviously not easy to block the Tang army from siegeing the city. No matter what the car is used for, if they allow the middle road to continue like this, they can dig a gap in the wall even if they use shovels!
Shinyugu nodded and said to the little Khan Toshi: The key is the cavalry on the left and right wings. If there is no progress, it is impossible for us to rely on a wall to defend the city.
Toxi suddenly remembered that the grandson of Tsuyugu had a reputation as a Turkic warrior and was very brave, so he said: Why not let Qi Trell lead his troops to fight for a while? There are few soldiers in Tang, as long as he can break through the formation once, there will be hope.
They discussed for a moment and ordered Qi Teller, the grandson of Zuoxian King Tsun, to lead a group of elite cavalry from the north of the city to reinforce the left wing.
Qi Teller happily received the order and led the elite soldiers and hundreds of cavalry from the tribe out of the city. When he looked back at the city wall with excitement, he did not find Princess Ashinazhuo. She should not run to the top of the city when there was such a chaos, but Qi Teller still couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
Qi Tel'er's troops rushed to the east wall of the Turkic left wing. Seeing that the two armies were fighting back and forth on the battlefield without any progress, the Turkic soldiers launched a fierce charge from time to time, but the Tang cavalry did not move and directly defeated them. When they chased them up, arrows were all on the city, and there were many Turkic troops under the city. The Tang army also retreated.
Qi Teller found the Turkic general present and said: In a while, the warriors of our Sakura Valley tribe broke through the Tang army camp from the middle. You can follow and tear the cracks and disrupt the formation. The Tang people will retreat.
The Turkic general received the order from the little Khan again, so he reorganized an attack according to Qi Tel's plan.
As soon as the horn sounded, Qi Teller bravely rode his horse and rushed to the front with a group of warriors like wolves and tigers. The Turkic cavalry rushed up in a row, and the scimitar shone in the air.
The Tang army on the opposite side did not retreat but advanced, and rushed forward.
The horses on both sides ran at the speed of charge, and the lightning was connected in close combat.
Qi Teller was facing him, a cavalry full of iron armor stabbed over with a long horse spear. He was experienced in this tactics and easily avoided the attack with his skillful horse skills. The moment the two horses approached, he slashed with one knife. With a loud bang, only sparks were seen in front of him. Qi Teller felt that the tiger's mouth was numb, no different from slashing on a stone. I don't know if the blade was rolled up. Qi Teller was stunned. At first, his confidence had dissipated most of his feelings: Can this Niniang armor be so hard?
The knight who passed Qi Telle could no longer turn around and stabbed directly at the second Turkic warrior who rushed over. The hard leather armor on the Turkic people could not stop the assassination of the horse spear with the impact of the war horse. The long soldier immediately penetrated the Turkic soldiers' chest, and the ice blade was exposed from the back, and blood was splattered.
The horse spear was too long and could not be pulled out for a while. The Tang army knights immediately gave up the horse spear and pulled out their horizontal swords to rush into the Turkic crowd to fight.
The soldiers of the two armies around quickly became stalemate and roared and slashed and stabbed.
The expectation of directly piercing the Tang army camp was completely unrealized, and the battle was revealed at the moment, and it was still like that, and the troops were fighting together.
The elite tribe soldiers around Qi Teller were brave and good at fighting, and the battle was pretty good. They fought so that both sides had casualties and no winners. Other places were not optimistic. The Turkic soldiers fought to the death and suffered heavy casualties. A general shouted in Turkic language: Let's retreat, and retreat to the city to help with crossbows and arrows!
The 10,000 Tang troops were divided into five governments (departments) by five middle-level generals, and set up formations in groups two miles south of Heisha City.
The Turks were also prepared, and from a distance, you could vaguely see that all their cavalry were arranged on both sides of the city.
