On the blue sky, there was no cloud. The sunlight came from the east, like a glacier hanging upside down, flowing among the white snow peaks.

I don’t know if it’s because the plateau is higher than the sky, and the dawn here comes earlier than Chang’an.

The calm foot of Dafei River was broken by the noisy sound of horse hooves.

That was the front army of a thousand cavalry led by General Xue Rengui of the Tang Dynasty.

This time, Su Dawei led not many people, with a total of more than 3,000 cavalry. If the logistics and supplies were added, the number would be about 5,800.

But the real warriors are only these three thousand.

Xue Rengui took away a thousand people at once.

The central and rear troops left for Su Dawei, there were only two thousand combat soldiers left.

With Xue Rengui's identity, leading a thousand people is already an extremely low configuration. According to his past record, he must lead at least ten thousand people and use a tactic of drilling through the knives to form an invincible momentum.

However, when attacking Tubo, speed and efficiency are the first priority, and you can only ride lightly.

From a logistical consideration, dispatching such people is the result of a comprehensive trade-off.

Xue Rengui himself did not feel any frustrated about this.

He rode on the snow-white war horse, and his body was covered with bright light armor shining under the sunlight.

The snow-white cloak behind him flew with the war horses.

Xue Rengui had a big bow hanging on his back, a horse spear hanging beside his saddle, a knife hanging on his waist, and his eyes were filled with a sharp light like an eagle and a falcon.

There is an indescribable charm from him.

This charm is an invincible belief and a courage to move forward.

Just like in the Liaodong battlefield, he dared to rush towards tens of thousands of Goguryeo cavalry when he rode alone.

Just like he entered the enemy again and again, leading the Tang general behind him to tear through and tear the enemy in front of him again and again.

He is an unparalleled general.

Among all the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, in terms of the strong impact of the cavalry, they can definitely rank in the forefront.

On the entire Tubo battlefield, except for the seriously ill Su Dingfang, no one could surpass Xue Rengui's right in terms of a positive breakthrough.

The commander of the Zhechong Mansion, along with the Thousand Cavalry who were following Xue Rengui, seemed to be infected by the strong confidence emitted by him.

A confident smile appeared on his face.

Rumble ~

Suddenly smoke and dust rose in front of him.

Xue Rengui raised his right fist while fighting.

The commander who followed him quickly pulled out a flag and waved it.

Several light cavalry rushed out of the team and galloped towards the smoke and dust rising in front of them.

This is a scout in the army, with only leather armor, horizontal swords and crossbows, so as to be light. If there is any enemy situation, they will reconnaissance first.

When the flag fights again, the cavalry slows down.

The entire army began to wear armor and then replaced with spare war horses.

This is preparing for the next encounter.

The smoke and dust in front of them was definitely not the Tang army. At this time, there were only two types of people they encountered, one was the herdsmen on the plateau, and the other possibility was the Tubo soldiers.

The second one is more likely.

When the cavalry is rushing, they will wear armor before the attack is launched unless they know the enemy's traces in advance.

Otherwise, the clothes and armor will be placed on the backup battle horse to save people and horse strength.

Otherwise, if you can charge in armor weighing dozens of kilograms, you will not be able to run for dozens of miles, and your troops will lose strength.

A scout in front rushed back, raised his right hand high, and made a hand knife move, which meant that it was the enemy.

Then the gesture changed again and gestured for a while.

The face of Wei Daxiao, the commander who followed him closely, changed slightly: "General, ten thousand enemy troops."

"Ten thousand?"

A glimmer flashed in Xue Rengui's eyes. He made a gesture, signaling the cavalry behind him to stop with him and make a final rest before the war.

It was also his last mobilization before the war.

"Wei Dalang, you are the eldest son in your family. Are you afraid of this battle?"

Xue Rengui turned his face and asked the deputy general beside him.

Wei Daxiao stretched out his right fist, punched his chest, and shouted: "General, in the first year of Longshuo, you and General Zheng Rentai conquered the surname Tiele. I will be under your command. I will see the general shooting three arrows to death and defeat the surname Tiele Jiule.

General, I'm not afraid!"

“Good!”

Xue Rengui shouted loudly, praising his courage.

He turned his horse's head and turned around to the thousand Tang cavalry behind him and shouted: "I, Xue Rengui, fight, and I cannot guarantee that my brothers will not be killed or injured, but I must be rushing to the front of the team, leading by example, and fighting bravely."

"General is mighty!"

There was a shout in the herd of war horses.

He was a veteran who had followed Xue Rengui to fight in Tianshan Mountains.

Xue Rengui took off his horse's lance, raised it high, and said sternly: "Su Dingfang Grand Chief, once in Wuhai, defeated 80,000 Tubo deputy prime ministers with one thousand cavalry. I dare not compare with the Grand Chief Chief, but I can do it with a thousand cavalry. I ask myself that I can do it."

The strong wind blew up the military flag, murderous aura spread, and the white horse neighed.

Xue Rengui raised his long spear hard and shouted: "In today's battle, I will do three things: killing the generals, snatching the flag, and drilling through the enemy's formation. Please prove it."

"I hope to follow the general to defeat the enemy!"

"I hope to follow the general to defeat the enemy!!"

With the shouts, dozens, hundreds, and even the entire army sang loudly: "The general was able to control the Tianshan Mountains with three arrows, and the hero sang to the Han Pass~"

"The bow is on the string and the spear is in hand. The whole army will follow me to defeat the enemy!"

"Here!"

The shouts of nearly a thousand people mixed together seemed to tremble even the world.

Xue Rengui tied the border rope, and the snow-white war horse man stood up and neighed at the sky.

The next moment, the snow-white cloak shook straight, Xue Rengui took the lead, and Qianqi followed, heading towards the direction where smoke and dust came.

There, there was a 10,000 Tubo people.

This is a head-on battle.

...

Xi Duoyu looked up at the sky, and a tiny black dot circled in the sky.

It was a domesticated condor.

"Tang Army, right ahead."

“There are not many people.”

He let out a puff, spit out the grass roots biting in his mouth, looked back, and followed him slowly forward.

It seems to be falling into a moment of contemplation.

"general?"

The deputy general Lun Kongre next to him said to him: "Do you fight?"

"Want, why not?"

Xiduoyu laughed: "Aren't we here just to eliminate the Tang army? Let's take Pei Xingjian from Anxi and Su Dingfang from Hexi, but these Tang people shouldn't come to our territory. The miasma on the plateau is enough for them to suffer, let alone we have other 'weapons'."

Siddouyu's voice turned to treacherous and gloomy.

"Although there were not many Tang troops invading, only a few thousand people, if we eat this, it would be a small victory. We can take it out and boast..."

This sentence seemed to convince himself.

Facing the Tang army, the Tubo people really need to convince themselves.

Past experience tells them that the Tang army is worthy of being the most powerful force in the world.

The Battle of Songzhou, the Battle of Wuhai, and the recent competition from the four towns of Anxi to the Hexi Corridor.

Tubo gathered hundreds of thousands of troops, like a violent hammer, but the Tang army's defense line remained stable.

This feeling was like a giant waving a big hammer to smash the egg on the iron ingot, but the egg was fine and the hammer broke.

Tubo needs a victory in great need.

Come and wash away the shame of defeat before.
