Chapter 499 Night Attack
"Don't scare yourself here, Tubo may not want to fight!" Fang Yu's voice came from the other side.
"Do you think it's possible?" Qin Mo got up from the bed. His altitude rebellion has improved a lot now, at least he is not so dizzy. "Everyone knows that war is inevitable. With Tubo fighting against the Central Plains dynasty many times, there is no reason they don't know about the altitude rebellion!"
"There are no scouts outside, why are you anxious?" Fang Yu turned over, "I'm sorry for myself!"
"You little guard, you have nothing to do, stop interrupting!" Gao Yao scolded.
"You little eunuch, it's not your turn to interrupt!" Fang Yu said unwillingly.
"Okay, stop arguing with you two!"
Qin Mo took a deep breath and dug a ditch outside Xining City to effectively resist the cavalry and also lead the razor wire (barbed wire).
The appearance of this thing was initially to limit the movement of the cavalry, and it specifically hindered the cavalry and even prevented the infantry from attacking fiercely.
Only Qinzhuang can make this kind of thing, and it is expensive. Many people don’t understand why Qin Mo brings these barbed wire mesh.
But only Qin Mo understands its power.
At this moment, drums sounded in Xining City.
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"
The rapid drum sounded, breaking the tranquility of Xining City.
At this time, it was already the beginning of Hai Shi in the evening, and it was only after nine o'clock in the evening that Xining City gradually became dark.
There are stars in the sky, but at this time, the solemn and murderous aura fills the military camp.
"No, the enemy attack!" The drums were chaotic, and this was the enemy attack.
I am really worried about what I am afraid of.
Qin Mo quickly put on his silver armor and rushed out of the military tent. Gao Yao and Fang Yu hurriedly followed him out.
"Marson, what's going on?" Qin Mo quickly came to Li Cungong's military tent. At the same time, Zhang Xi and others also came here.
"The scout came to report that the Tubo attacked at night, and the cavalry was no less than 30,000!" Li Cungong took a deep breath, "In another quarter of an hour, it's time to arrive!"
Although the others were also very uncomfortable, they all got up.
Among them, the Thunder Army members are the fastest to consolidate the army!
"Hurry up, push the thunder cannon above the city wall and defend the city!" Li Yue said hurriedly.
Tubo caught them off guard, but Li Cungong was not too panicked. As early as the daytime, Qin Mo reminded him to prepare in advance.
The Nine-Curve Army patrols alone are obviously not enough, and they also require a lot of traps.
Look, just after setting up a trap during the day, Tubo attacked at night, and he felt a little scared.
But how much effect a trap can play can only be seen!
Countless torches lit up, Xining City is just a small town with a population of tens of thousands, and people hid at home uneasy.
The civilians who were collecting corvee labor endured their discomfort and moved the materials guarding the city.
Li Cungong and everyone stood on the city wall, and the sound of horses trampling came from the front, from far to near, with a huge momentum.
Qinling Zanzhuo shouted: "Charge!"
Their speed is very fast, and they can definitely catch them off guard!
Moreover, Xining City is not a majestic city gate, which also makes Qinling Zanzhuo very confident.
A large group of people attacked.
Their speed was very fast and they ran towards Xining City where the fire was soaring into the sky.
However, when they approached Xining City more than 300 feet, they saw a large number of horse-rejecting refusals.
The Tubo soldiers dismounted quickly and moved away.
Above the Xining city wall, Zhang Xidao: "Fire a cannon, what a great opportunity!"
"Can't drive, it's too far, let them walk in!"
Li Yue said: "When they reach the trench position, we will fire again!"
Qin Mo leaned against the battlements and resisting horses would make them careless. There were no trenches in this era, let alone razor lines.
Moreover, the razor thread is in the dark night and is not conspicuous at all.
Whether it is war horses or infantry, it is a huge obstacle.
The most important thing is that a lot of poison is applied to these razor lines. Once scratched, you will be waiting for infection to die!
Li Cungong said: "Arrow on the crossbow!"
The so-called crossbow chariot can also be called a crossbow cannon. This thing is a large cross. The crossbow can shoot at most three hundred feet away.
It was only when Qin Mo saw this thing that he denied the use of hot air balloons.
"Trailing car!"
"put!"
The flag bearer waved the flag, but it was not obvious in the darkness, so the sound of drums replaced the flag!
"Dong!"
Whoosh swish swish swish!
Hundreds of long arrows pierced the sky and threw themselves into the darkness.
The stone weighing more than 20 kilograms also flew three hundred meters away.
These efforts are mostly accomplished by the garrisons of the Nine Curves.
"Take out the shield and charge!"
Since Princess Jing'an married into Tubo, Tubo's iron smelting technology has made great progress. Although it is not as good as Dakan, it is already the most powerful country in addition to Dakan.
Even the Huns had to buy iron for them.
But they don’t have enough of them, so how can they be sold?
In Qinling Zanzhuo's eyes, they can't beat more people and have better weapons. If they are equipped with the same equipment and weapons, they may not be worse than the big fight!
The cavalry approached, and they crossed the horse and quickly headed towards the city gate.
When they were gone, they stepped into the ditches that had been dug in advance.
It is covered with wooden boards and a layer of soil is covered, which is difficult to distinguish in the darkness.
The cavalry rushing in the front fell into a big fright, including his men and horses.
The strong inertia caused them to fall from the horse's back into the ground.
Even if he didn't die, he would still have half his life.
What's even more terrible is that the war horses pressed on them, the horse's hooves trampled on their faces, the armor was stomped, and a big hole was smoldering their faces.
Some people crossed over, and the sudden razor thread appeared in front of them cut the horse's legs.
Even because of the huge inertia, the horse's belly was directly broken!
Plop, plop!
One after another, people fell to the ground, screaming everywhere!
Who would have thought that Gan Jun would dig out so many traps on the road?
How could they have thought of a small thing like a razor thread that spans more than a thousand years.
"Maben, there are several long pits in front of Xining City, and countless thin lines on both sides, so it is difficult to cross the crowd!" Yi Dai reported, "There have already been dozens of casualties!"
Qinling Zanzhuo said angrily: "Why is this happening? Why didn't the scout report before? "
He rushed to Xining City with more than 30,000 people. Now that he retreated, wouldn’t that reduce his aura?
This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that he can't lose!
The other party is in the worst condition now, and if they get used to it, it will be really troublesome.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Continue to charge. Even if you use people to fill it, you will have to fill it with the ravines for me. I will definitely break through Xining City tonight!"
"Yes, Maben!"
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
The Tubo war drums also started to beat the drums, and the soldiers were advanced, and the Jin Dynasty was called to withdraw. When the drums were heard, the Tubo cavalry rushed forward and one after another as if they were injected with chicken blood!
At this moment, Qin Mo made a gesture to Li Yue.
Li Yue held the battlements with both hands and shouted loudly: "Light!"
Chapter completed!
