Chapter 100 Night Raider
Chapter 100 Night Attacker
The battles these days are a fatal torture for Tashir. He and another general Dawan are responsible for the battle situation on one side, while McClell runs from both sides, mainly staying in the south during the day, and at night, thinking about what the enemy in the south is doing!
As for Tashir himself, he did not agree with passive defense of the city. He prefers field battles - even if the opponent's troops can suppress him, he also believes that he should go out of the city to fight to relieve the pressure of the siegemen. When holding a high-level military meeting, Dawan sneered that he had never seen the fanatical form of those "crazy" in the south. "If you see it, you will be glad that you can defend the city, and you will also leave the city!"
But Tashir blamed Dawan's cringe for being passively trapped in the south.
"We are not a nation that is known for defending the city!" he said.
Tashir was a serious Uighur, and the Uighurs started as a nomadic people. After hundreds of years of evolution, its national situation has become very complicated and cannot be simply used as "nomadic peoples". As for the Karakhan Dynasty, the nomadic characteristics retained by the Arslan family should be stronger. They have been entrenched in Shule for a long time. The deputy Khans in the Talas area have been more skillful in the use of infantry forces, mountain power and commercial forces. Erjis are rarely located between Shule and Talas, but they are an important chess piece when Arslan is placed here. McClley himself is also a master of city defense in the Western Regions, but Tashir and the soldiers he trained in the battle against the city are not considered first-class.
Every day, I watched the earthen city built by the Tang army approaching step by step like something that I could move. Every day, I endured nothing to do but had to get up with twelve points of mental irritability. Tashir is enough!
On this day, at his request, McClley finally agreed to let him lead his troops out of the city. At dusk, he had gathered troops and hid in a place that could not be seen on the high slope in the northwest. Tashir had known about the Tang generals' high and low spy.
At night, a reward feast was held quietly. Tahir, who was good at raids, knew how to maintain the greatest tranquility before the attack, while at the same time, it maximized the morale of soldiers in the silence!
There were 2,200 soldiers selected, accounting for one-third of the combat troops in the city. Considering that Dawan has not only lost more than 100 soldiers in the past few days, but also not injured, they have been shaken by the terrible fanatical impact of the Kuba jihadists, the new force under Tashir is actually the strongest combat force in Ejihan City.
"I asked the city lord to order, saying that we would go out to harass tonight, but tonight we would go out not just harass! Tonight, we would completely defeat the morale accumulated by the enemy outside the city in the past few days! We would like to call Dawan and others to know how big the mistake he made these days! No matter where these Tang Kou came from! Whether it is Satuk's people or Satuk's people, no matter who they are - he will never have the courage to attack the city after tonight!"
Of course, this is only the most conservative result in Tashir's heart. The ideal thing is to directly defeat the army outside the city! Burning all the battalions overnight! Tashir's judgment is not arrogant, but because there have been countless examples of night attacks on the battalions to decide the outcome of the battalions since ancient times! Tashir also believes that he has such strength!
"The army in the northwest does not seem to have much courage!"
There is no more nonsense.
"Let's go!"
The northeast city gate was opened.
There are no lights inside and outside the city!
Tashir has ordered the horse's hooves to be tied with soft objects, and the horse is held with things, so as to eliminate the sound without affecting the Mercedes-Benz.
The Tang army had already built the earth wall closer. Before the night attack cavalry guard stepped out of the city gate, the vanguard had quietly covered the wall!
What made Tashir happy was that there was no reaction in the camp of "Tang Kou" - "It seems that they are tired, or we have not made any moves these days, so they are all lazy." Tashir thought.
At this time, all the generals and soldiers leaving the city were ready.
"Do it!"
When you come, it is as quiet as a phantom, and when you move, it is as fierce as thunder!
"ah!"
There were more than 200 people resting in the gully of Tucheng, and the sudden appearance of the night attack cavalry seemed to surprise them!
"Night attack! There is a night attack!"
More than 200 people made very panic shouts. Tashir was overjoyed when he heard the shouts. The panic of the shouts made him judge that his inference was correct!
"Hahahaha..." Tashir laughed wildly: "The enemy is in chaos! Unfortunately, it's too late to shout for warning now!"
The front army rushed in and rushed behind the wall!
"Advance quickly!" Tashir urged the rear army, and at the same time, the front army was divided into three parts, one to smash the earth walls and the other to destroy the siege equipment that was about to be formed! Another part was to attack the night watchmen who jumped out of the gully!
These three parts of the troops do not act separately, but use the unique maneuverability of the light cavalry to shuttle back and forth, impact, smash with a sledgehammer, mace when encountering earth walls, and kick back and forth with horse hooves! When encountering siege equipment, they will be chopped down with a knife! Then they will be trampled and stomped on! As for those night watchmen, in Tashir's eyes, these people are simply the strongest weapons to deal with the enemy!
Defeat these night watchmen, become defeated soldiers, and then drive them to attack the enemy's camp!
All the defeated soldiers who are defeated will become new defeated soldiers! All the camps that are defeated by the defeated soldiers will become seas of fire without exception!
This is the basic common sense of cavalry breaking tactics! It is also a battlefield weapon that can be used without any delay!
"Run!" He urged the troops to advance and pressed towards the two hundred night watchmen!
The iron hooves were thumping, and the strong impact of the horse's hooves and the ground stomped through the soft object that bound the iron hooves!
The freedom of the horse's hooves was relieved, and the war horse, which had been afflicted for several days, also had a subtle improvement in speed!
Several camps began to appear lights in a few spots!
Tashir was sneering.
That's right, everything was as expected!
These "Tang Kou" should have heard the exclamation of the night watchman, and should have begun to turn over, search for armor and weapons, but except for the small number of troops on duty, others have absolutely no time to complete the queue!
Before they complete the formation, Tashir's cavalry will rush to them!
All of this was calculated before leaving the city.
McClair, you coward, just wait, wait for me to enter the city with Tang Kou's head, and tell you that the powerful generals from Balashaguen are not comparable to those of you, a chief like you.
puff--
Crazy-
That was the sound of siege equipment being smashed!
Kala—
Bang--
That was the sound of the earthen wall falling!
Everything went smoothly, even more smoothly than expected!
suddenly!
Some cavalry began to light the torches! Some night watchmen who were unable to escape screamed!
The overall situation was smooth, but there were still some flaws that made Tashir slightly unhappy.
First of all, the earth wall collapsed too smoothly, as if this earth wall was not as strong as the appearance showed.
Secondly, the sound of the siege equipment when it was destroyed was also a bit suspicious. When his subordinates smashed the unformed siege equipment with a big knife and mace, Tashir glanced at it a few times and felt that the things that were hit were a pile of shreds!
In the end, the resistance of the more than 200 vigils seemed to be stronger than expected. Although their screams seemed panicked, their pace was not very messy! Moreover, each of them was equipped with a solid shield, so that some people saved their lives even if they were trampled by horse hooves!
"Is it an illusion?"
Night attack is a lightning-style battle that determines the outcome in a moment!
Even Tashir, even a long-standing rival, cannot complete the overall grasp and judgment of the situation in such a short time!
What's more, the galloping night cavalry often moves faster than thinking, and even to break free from the brink of the command of the general! Fighters on the battlefield often rely on instinct, experience, and indifference to fight, rather than reason!
The remaining night watchmen finally rushed to the vicinity of the gate, and behind them were the rare night attack cavalry - there was no distance of more than one foot between the two!
suddenly--
The torch lighted up again, but this time it was not the cavalry that lit up the torch, but the Tang army!
The torches were not lit up one by one, but were lit up in one step as agreed!
The rhythm that lights up at the same time has a terrifying momentum.
Outside the gate, two teams of infantry were waiting there in an orderly battle!
When the torch lights up, it illuminates the formation of the two infantry teams - it is a curve that is almost straight but slightly curved! It is not a convex arc, but a concave arc - at first glance it looks like a cloth bag mouth.
When the torches shine, it is also when two teams of infantry appear.
"Oh no, it seems like he was trapped!" Tashir felt nervous, but he was not desperate yet!
If we follow the "usual" situation, the first thing these two teams of infantry must deal with is not the cavalry themselves, but the defeated soldiers rushing towards us!
If these two teams of infantry receive their comrades who have fled back quickly, their queues will be scattered, and then the night-raid cavalry led by Tashir can continue to rush forward and repel these two teams of cavalry, making them new defeats!
If these two teams of infantry use blades to deal with their comrades who are fleeing back quickly, then they must first kill all their friendly troops before they can point their blades at the cavalry team attacking at night, so that Tashir can win a few seconds - although very short, it is enough to decide the victory or defeat of life and death!
So Tashir has not ordered a retreat yet because he feels he has a chance!
But at this moment, more than a hundred fleeing night watchmen suddenly disappeared, like ghosts hiding in the darkness!
It turned out that there was a very narrow gully outside the gate, so narrow that the shield was stuck when placed horizontally, but the escaped night watchman could hide on his side! The action of hiding was obviously trained. In less than a second, they all cated, as if they had disappeared from the ground. At the same time, the shield in their hands was placed on the gully and became pedals, so the gully seemed to have disappeared.
All the night attack knights changed their faces! Because of this change, they faced the infantrymen with the intact enemy array in an instant! There was no buffering anymore!
One side is the night-attacked iron hooves, and what about the other side?
The Tang army under Xi Sheng raised their swords - Mo Dao!
