Chapter eight hundred and ninety-two

"Oops!"

Seeing the sparrow leaving quickly, Daqin Ruozan only had this thought in his mind.

Although sparrows are common in the Western Regions, they are rare in the desolate, barren, rocky areas west of Congling, because there is nothing for sparrows to feed on. And now that the weather is getting colder, sparrows will never appear in this kind of place in this season.

"collapse!"

In the blink of an eye, there was a loud noise, the bowstring trembled, and a long arrow shot out from behind, and the arrow shot through the sparrow, and the sparrow's body fell to the ground with great force. But Daqin Ruozan's expression didn't change at all because the sparrow fell to the ground. As far as he could see, at the end of his line of sight, a small black shadow had disappeared into the distance like lightning.

—It was a taupe kite.

When the vulture group was hunting five rock eagles in the air, everyone's eyes were focused on the sky. At this moment, the gray-brown kite soared into the air from a branch in the distance, and quickly burst out. Its speed was extremely fast, and in just a short while, it had already flown out of sight, beyond the reach of even the archers, let alone the flock of vultures in the sky.

"Miscalculated!"

Daqin Ruozan closed his eyes, sighed deeply, and the palms in his sleeves trembled slightly.

Between him and Wang Chong, this invisible contest has been winning from the beginning until now. Thousands of Uz-Tibetan soldiers and horses had already approached eighteen miles outside Talas City. Wang Chong didn't react at all, but he didn't expect that at the moment when he was closest to success, he fell into the ground where Wang Chong was hiding. On a kite in a tree.

When the army patrols, all the empty birds are basically in the air. The higher the flight, the wider the viewing range, so basically no one will put the hawks for reconnaissance on the ground or on the branches. Daqin Ruozan accurately judged Wang Chong's defense point, but he didn't expect to lose here completely.

"Prince, what should we do?"

All around, everyone felt something, their eyes all focused on Daqin Ruozan, even Huoshu Guizang and Dusong Mangbuzhi changed their expressions. Turning into an elbow and armpit, a kite completely disrupted everyone's plans.

It was too late to stop it. Whether Wang Chong was prepared or not was a completely different situation for everyone. There is no doubt that when the kite flew out, everyone was exposed.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

"Prime Minister, has the plan changed? Are we going to move on?"

Huoshu Guizang probed.

Daqin Ruozan didn't speak, his eyes fluctuated, and no one knew what he was thinking.

As if only for a moment, and as if countless long centuries had passed, when the atmosphere was so strong that it was almost suffocating, Daqin Ruozan suddenly smiled and shook his head:

"Sure enough, he is indeed the person I know. If he really doesn't know anything, and we touch him all the way to the city of Talas, I will feel a little uneasy. Now is the real confrontation between us. Now that he has been He found out, we don't need to hide it anymore, open the banner, remove the cloth wrapping the horse's hooves, and we march into Talas openly!"

"Yes! Prime Minister!"

Rumbling, earth shaking, this time the Uzbek army no longer concealed, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses raised billowing smoke and went straight to the city of Talas.

...

"Master Hou! It's not good!"

At the same time, outside Talas City far away, it was early morning, Zhang Que looked panic-stricken, and went straight to where Wang Chong was.

"What's wrong?"

Wang Chong, his father Wang Yan, his elder brother Wang Fu, Li Siye, and the king of Gang Ke were looking at the movement of the cannibal in the distance. Seeing Zhang Que's expression, he turned his head and frowned slightly.

"Master Hou, something serious happened! Behind us, an army of tens of thousands of people appeared. They were extremely fast. All the sentries I set up along the way, as well as the hawks patrolling in the sky, were all removed by them.

Now they have advanced all the way to the vicinity of Talas City, less than ten miles away from us! "

Zhang Que knelt on the ground and said, his face extremely pale.

"What!"

Hearing Zhang Que's words, the bodies of Wang Yan, Wang Fu, Li Siye, and the King of Gangke and others beside Wang Chong shook violently, and everyone's expression changed abruptly. Everyone was still discussing the strategy to deal with the big cannibal, but suddenly there was a dead silence at this moment.

To the east of the city of Talas, across a plain, more than 200,000 elite soldiers and horses of Dashi and the eastern governor of Dashi, Abu Muslim/Lin, are staring at each other. The sudden appearance of a soldier and horse of tens of thousands in the rear is extremely deadly.

Datang is invisibly caught in the situation of being attacked by the enemy, this is a taboo in the army!

Needle drops could be heard all around, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.

Zhang Que knelt on the ground, with bead-sized beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. The cold sweat came one after another, like beads scurrying, and even his robes were soaked. This is Zhang Que's duty in the army. But tens of thousands of hostile soldiers and horses rushed all the way, and he didn't realize it at all, and was even touched by the opponent at such a close distance, which was simply a huge dereliction of duty.

These are tens of thousands of enemy soldiers!

The opponent approached quietly, and attacked their own detectives and empty birds, their hostility had been clearly revealed. If the army was injured or attacked by the enemy due to his own reasons, Zhang Que would never be able to forgive himself.

"What's going on here? Where did the enemy come from? How could there be so many soldiers in the entire Western Region?"

It was Wang Yan who spoke first. After receiving Zhang Que's news, Wang Yan's first feeling was that it was impossible.

Wang Chong had just arrived at the city of Talas, just a day away, how could it be possible that a soldier of tens of thousands of people appeared behind him? And without any warning beforehand? This is so sudden!

"... Zhang Que, are you sure?"

Wang Yan stared at Zhang Que on the ground and said. Seeing Zhang Que nod his head, Wang Yan's face suddenly became serious.

The faces of other generals in the army also became ugly.

"How is this possible? Could it be that the big cannibal bribed other countries in the Western Regions?"

Wang Fu murmured, his expression became extremely dignified.

If it was a one-on-one frontal battle, Wang Fu wouldn't care at all. But now there are wolves in the front and tigers in the back, and the situation of Qixi Yuanqi has suddenly become more passive and unfavorable than ever before. The battle of Talas is very important. The victory or defeat of this battle is directly related to Anxi, Longxi, and Anxi in the capital behind him. Datang simply cannot afford to lose.

"impossible!"

As soon as Wang Fu's voice fell, he was overruled by the King of Gangke:

"The Western Regions are all small countries, and they can't gather tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Moreover, in the war between Datang and Dashi, there is no definite number of who will win and who will win. The countries in the Western Regions will not and have no courage to intervene at this time. The war between elephants and lions is not something they can get involved in."

"Elephants and lions", this is the impression of all the countries in the Western Regions on the war between Datang and Dashi. Whoever gets involved in this war will be crushed to pieces. The most sensible way is to stay out of it and stay far away Far, this is what the countries in the Western Regions are doing.

The King of Gunke never believed that any small country in the Western Regions would seek their own death at this time!

"But the soldiers and horses in the northern border of Uzbekistan have been wiped out by us. There are no soldiers at all. The blue wolf Yehu Agudulan was also killed by Lord Hou. All the soldiers and horses on the border have been cleaned up. If it wasn't for The countries of the Western Regions, who else will be there at this time? Which other force can gather tens of thousands of troops at this time?"

Li Siye also spoke, with an equally solemn expression.

In the vicinity of the entire Western Regions, there are now two largest forces, one is Dashi and the other is Datang. It is impossible to conjure up a third force out of thin air. The most strange thing now is that the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the opponent have already approached about ten miles away from Talas, and they may arrive at any time, but until this time, everyone still has no idea who the opponent is, even the origin of this force. Do not know at all.

This has never happened before!

"Don't think about it, it must be Uzbek and the Western Turkic Khanate!"

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears. Wang Chong looked at the sea-like Dashi army on the opposite side and said calmly:

"...the only ones in the Western Regions that are worth waiting for Abu Muslim/Lin and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are Uz-Tibet and the Western Turkic Khanate!"

Wang Chong's voice was not high, and his deep eyes revealed a strong convincing power. In an instant, there was a dead silence all around. Everyone stared blankly at Wang Chong, unable to speak.

"But Lord Hou, didn't we just sign an armistice agreement with the Western Turks?"

Li Siye said in a deep voice.

"Agreement is meant to be torn up. We have signed so many agreements with Uzbek, so the Uzbek people still tore them up?"

Wang Chong said calmly, in such a critical time, he is the only one who can maintain his composure:

"In the Battle of Talas, Datang and Dashi came out in full force, and the entire strength of Qixi and Anxi was emptied. It would be really strange if there was no movement between Uzang and Western Turks. The agreement signed by Sabolo Khan earlier That paper agreement is used to paralyze us. Zhang Que, check again!"

"Yes, Lord Hou!"

Without saying a word, Zhang Que immediately took the order and left.

Zhang Que left quickly and came back even faster, only to report again after a while.

"Back to Lord Marquis, there are more than 70,000 soldiers and horses in the rear, all of which are Wu Sizang's iron cavalry, and the opponent has no cover at all, fighting under the banner of Wu Sizang, and..."

Zhang Que hesitated for a moment, raised his head, looked at Wang Chong secretly, and continued:

"And besides the battle flag of Uzbek, we also found a Uzang flag with a white yak and a black background inside!"

"Buzz!"

Hearing this sentence, the King of Gunke didn't react, but the expressions of Wang Yan, Wang Fu, Li Siye and others all changed. Even Wang Chong couldn't help but twitch his brows. The Uzbek battle flag with white yak and black background is used by only one faction in the entire plateau:

King Ali!
