Chapter 871 Taros, the Last Step!
Chapter eight hundred and seventy first
In order to find out the details of the big cannibals, only they themselves knew how much they had paid for it in the past period of time. Eleven members of the vulture team died in the area east of Talas, twenty or thirty vultures died in battle, and even Xiao Sha was seriously injured, but Zhang Que also managed to understand some of the laws of the big cannibal.
The big cannibal has a unique combat style. The hawks in the air are often far away from the scouts on the ground, and the reconnaissance of the falcon can reach dozens of miles away. Once these large sakers encounter enemy empty birds, one of them will return immediately to notify the scouts behind.
In order to avoid being discovered by the big cannibals, all scouting hawks can only be brought back to the ground in advance. At this time, if the opponent in the air is not visible, the Saker will continue to move forward, making a circle in the air, and will further collect the number of enemies before leaving.
If you want to avoid being discovered by the big cannibals in advance and make preparations, you must wipe out all these huge big cannibal falcons that are extremely good at air combat within a circle. As long as one lets go, all previous efforts will be wasted. With hundreds of thousands of reinforcements rushing thousands of miles to the west, it is meaningless to restrain the breath.
"One lap, only one lap, no matter what, we must succeed!"
Zhang Que looked at the sky, feeling extremely nervous.
The cannibal army is now distributed in all directions, and the west is only a part of it. For everyone, this is the best opportunity. The entire Eagle Vulture Squad has already been mobilized, and this battle will affect the success or failure of the entire army, including Qixi and Anxi!
These thoughts flitted through his mind, and in just a split second, the densely packed Datang vultures had already come into contact with the big man-eating falcons.
"Hey!—"
A long and shrill cry resounded through the sky, without any contact or temptation, the hawks from both sides began to pounce into it in an instant, brutally killing each other. Feathers fluttered and blood splattered everywhere, not scattered, but all over the sky from the very beginning.
boom!
A black shadow flashed, and a large saker falcon fell straight from the air like a rock, hitting the hard, gravel ground, smashing into a ball, falling to pieces, bloody and bloody. Immediately behind it, two or three Great Tang's vultures slammed down on the ground like raindrops.
Five, six, seven, eight...
The situation of the war was much more intense than everyone imagined. The man-eating falcons are much more vicious than everyone imagined. Their sharp beaks are like steel chisels, and their sharp claws are like iron hooks. Every time they pounce, they tear out large pieces of flesh and feathers. Every big-eating falcon can block two, three, and four with one. Zhang Que's Eagle King Xiaosha was injured under such a fierce attack by the big-eating falcon.
But this time, Zhang Que and the entire eagle and vulture team adopted completely different tactics. Huh, thirty or forty hawks and vultures swarmed up like a pack of wolves, pounced on a big-eating falcon, pecked at it, and tore their claws. Just one encounter, a huge and extremely fierce big-eating falcon was besieged to death , the corpse fell straight from the sky.
During this process, the eagles and birds of the entire eagle and vulture team were fully focused, completely ignoring the attacks of other falcons. No matter how they attacked, none of the eagles and vultures looked back, let alone escaped. Enduring the pain, they besieged one falcon, and immediately went on to besiege the next one.
Under such circumstances, the loss of the eagle and vulture team was particularly great. All the eagles and vultures were covered with scars, and the bones were deeply visible, falling down like raindrops. Seeing this scene, the eyes of the entire Eagle Squad members turned red.
It took them a lot of time to train each eagle. This is not just simple training, but also contains deep emotions. Every time an eagle fell down, it was as if everyone's heart was torn apart, but everyone could only keep all this deep in their hearts.
One head, two heads, three heads... Zhang Que's tactics are working, and in just one breath, a large number of sakers fall from the sky. No matter how fierce the falcon is, it can't stop the attacks of so many vultures.
However, Zhang Que's heart was still tense.
"You can't let them escape, you can't let them escape..."
Zhang Que looked at the sky and clenched his fists fiercely. No matter how many sakers he killed in this battle, it was meaningless. The most important thing was to wipe out all the sakers. As long as one of them runs back, the operation will be a complete failure. In the air, the man-eating falcons were constantly decreasing. Facing the desperate attack of hordes of vultures, these falcons were finally afraid and timid. Several falcons were trembling and wanted to turn around and run away.
Seeing this scene, everyone's hearts rose to their throats, and Zhang Que's face paled a lot.
At this moment, a black shadow flashed, and a rock eagle rushed up, like lightning, tearing the back of a large hunting falcon with one claw, and throwing it down from the air. Then came the second, the third, and the last falcon wanted to turn around and pounce, but was quickly killed by the cooperation of other eagles and vultures.
"boom!"
When the last big saker fell heavily to the ground, the entire falcon team suddenly cheered today.
"Xiaosha!"
"Xiaosha!"
"Xiaosha!"
...
The last rock eagle that jumped up to finish off the three big sakers was none other than Zhang Que's eagle king, Xiaosha.
"Successful!"
Zhang Que let out a long sigh of relief. The big cannibals will not remain unnoticed, but the elimination of these big cannibal falcons can at least win a buffer period for Lord Hou and the army, and speed up their actions:
"Next, it's up to Huang Botian and the others!"
If you want to get close to Dashi without being discovered by them in advance, there are at least two hurdles. The first level is the falcons scattered by the big cannibals at the outermost edge of the army, and then there are the scouts on the ground. Each falcon corresponds to a scout on the ground. Although this air battle was victorious, it is far from being taken lightly.
The opponent's scouts on the ground will come to check if the Saker is out of contact, but these are not within the scope of Zhang Que's ability.
"Prepare!"
A burst of loud shouts suddenly came from the front, and Zhang Que turned his head to take a look, only to see Huang Botian riding a big reddish brown horse, calling the elite scouts around, ready to set off.
The distance to Talas is getting closer, and the marching speed is getting faster and faster. Everyone knows that the time left for the army is running out, and everyone's nerves are tense.
Thirty miles away, all the outermost scouts of the cannibals were wiped out, which bought Wang Chong and the hundreds of thousands of troops the last marching time——
Twenty miles!
Fifteen miles!
Thirteen miles!
...
The army will be discovered at any time, and everyone is racing against time, and everyone understands that every meter that the army advances, the hope of winning will increase by one point. Everyone remained silent, with serious expressions, and there were only the sound of uniform footsteps and the rolling of wheels on the ground.
"Only the last step is left!"
Behind the army, banners and flags were everywhere. Wang Chong was riding a white-hoofed crow, surrounded by many masters and generals. His eyes were sharp, and he kept looking into the distance. Whether it's Zhang Que's Eagle Vulture Squad or Huang Botian's Scout Squad, everything is under his control.
With an army of 100,000, it is impossible for the big cannibals not to find out, but they can push their troops to the nearest place to win the greatest opportunity.
Wang Chong once used a sand table to carefully study the terrain around Talas. Although there is a flat river and a wilderness around the city of Talas, there are continuous low hills in the northeast. If you can succeed before the big cannibals discover Arriving at that hill, then it can play a role of surprise.
The boat is small and easy to turn around. If it is only a team of a dozen people, it is easy to change its strategy, but when the army of hundreds of thousands of cannibals is attacking the city of Talas with all its strength, it is not so easy to change the direction of attack. thing. This is also the opportunity for Wang Chong and the hundreds of thousands of Qixi reinforcements.
"Boom!"
At this moment, suddenly, the earth shook and the sky shook, and a violent sound of horseshoes came from the opposite side of the army. At the same time, a rush of horseshoes came from his ears.
"Report!"
"Suddenly an army of 7,000 or 8,000 people appeared in front of us, and they are coming towards us! May I ask what should be done, Lord Protector?"
The scout got off his horse and knelt on the ground with a very nervous expression.
Wang Chong just smiled indifferently and looked towards the front. Behind the continuous hills in front, a burst of smoke rose into the sky, and in the smoke, a torrent of black steel composed of seven or eight thousand cannibals suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain.
"Finally found it!"
Wang Chong smiled and didn't take it seriously. After all, the big cannibal is not a weak person. Although he tried his best to hide it and covered up the sound of war, the big cannibal still sensed the abnormality and sent troops to sweep it up:
"However, only seven or eight thousand people are still far from enough!"
The previous strategy worked. Wang Chong covered the horses and livestock with nets, and wrapped the hooves with cloth. All the troops were silent, weakening the sound to the extreme. There is no way to cover up the sound of the carriage, but the road Wang Chong is traveling on is already a busy Silk Road, and there are all kinds of business travelers from the East and the West. The scouts did not return, and it is not easy to arouse suspicion.
All of this, Wang Chong has long considered very thoughtfully. And the final result is already in front of you:
——Although the big cannibal heard the sound, he obviously thought that there were not many people coming, so he only sent seven or eight thousand cavalry to check.
"Clang!"
A clear sword chant resounded through the sky, and Wang Chong pulled out the sword he was carrying with him. The four-foot long Wuzi steel sword seemed to block even the sunlight from the sky, and the sharp blade shone coldly:
"The army obeys the order! Advance at full speed!"
Before the voice fell, the long sword in Wang Chong's hand pointed obliquely, pointing at the hilly area in the distance.
And following Wang Chong's order, the army of more than 100,000 soldiers rushed forward like a rabbit, setting off a vast cloud of smoke and dust. Although there were seven or eight thousand big food cavalry on the opposite side, and Wang Chong had already been spotted, but it was too late at this time. Whether they found it or not, it had no effect on the overall situation.
