Chapter 1776: The Pigeon-Carrying Letter Strategy Is Useless

"Fire!"

'Pah, pah, pah! '

"Fire!"

The original team of 3,000 people, now less than 2,000, some of them died when fighting with the Xi tribe, and were chased and killed by the Heavenly Soldiers.

Every time a gunshot was fired, someone was guaranteed to fall off the horse.

They hated this noise, why could they hit someone from several arrow ranges away?

The Heavenly Soldiers became more and more excited as they fought, finally having a real battle, hunting prey was boring, it was fun to hit the enemy.

You don't have to shoot accurately, just fire in the general direction, there will always be someone who can hit, there are many enemies.

Li Xiaotang stood on the gate tower of the village and looked through the telescope, focusing on the Heavenly Soldiers. When a puff of smoke rose, the Turkic team lost more than a dozen people, sometimes twenty or thirty.

"This weapon is good, what a pity!" Li Xiaotang envied, and shook his head, the Tang Dynasty would never give it to them.

The bows and arrows given now were once unattainable, fighting with the Turks, his own people were not afraid.

On the chaotic battlefield, everyone turned around, and the two Turkic troops finally merged.

"Retreat, retreat!" The commander completely gave up the idea of ​​crossing the river.

The Turkic troops ran, and the Xi tribe chased. Even if they could block the front, they still didn't block it. If they blocked the Turkic troops, they could only fight, and their own side would suffer too much loss.

Leave a gap for the Turkic people to run, and attack from three directions.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way on the left and front, they are being rushed." Shi Yue's team shouted together, they wanted this position.

The Xi tribe slowed down on the left, then accelerated, leaving a gap of several hundred meters in front.

The Tianbing Army opened fire for a while, and the Turkic people fell off their horses one after another.

The sky was dark, and after half an hour of fighting, the Turkic troops were less than two thousand people, and many horses were lost.

When another round of gunfire sounded, someone on the Turkic side suddenly shouted: "The commander is dead, the commander is dead."

The whole team was instantly panicked, and then someone shouted: "Surrender, surrender!"

"Stop fighting, you can't run away, surrender."

"We surrender, don't shoot arrows."

The Turkic troops slowed down and finally stopped.

Some of the Xi people shot another arrow, but felt it was boring, so they stood by.

The Turks dismounted, and the wounded were helped out of the horse team by others.

The Tianbing army also dismounted and wiped their guns, obviously unable to shoot again.

"How far did they run? My dog." Shi Yue didn't know the distance, and he had been shooting just now.

"Battalion commander, these Turks." The Tianbing army next to him pointed at the captured enemies.

"Ours, send them back and exchange them for money." Shi Yue said naturally.

Prisoners are valuable, but it's useless for the Xi people to have prisoners. They always worry that the prisoners will run away when they are asked to work.

"Can we get promoted?" another person asked.

"Yes! Where will we get promoted? Give honors? No land, only money. Then everyone will be promoted one level, and each will bring a few people?"

Shi Yue had a headache when he thought of promotion. He was not a battalion commander, and if he was promoted one level, his brothers would also be promoted, and there would be no soldiers below.

The Tianbing army had only these people, and everyone was a battalion commander. What was the difference between a battalion commander and a soldier?

He didn't want to go to another army, he was not familiar with it, so he retired and his own words didn't count.

"If you can give me a reward of 100 strings of cash, a medal, more military pay every month, my family's life..." The person who asked just now said what he was thinking.

"It's good to always fight like this, firing from a long distance, safe!"

"The horses are ours, right? The Xi people have a lot of horses, and the Xi people don't need horses in the rear, they have enough for the front line."

"There are also horse meat and horse skins from dead horses, give one third to the Xi people?"

"If we don't report the news, the Xi people will suffer heavy losses."

"I'm not worried that the Xi people will suddenly rebel, today they saw how powerful our muskets are!"

"Take a rest, and we have to go back to report the news."

"Drink water, don't want to eat."

The people of the Tianbing Army felt that all the spoils belonged to them, and the Tang Dynasty gave the Xi people a lot of benefits, and the Xi people should be sensible.

The Xi people were sweeping the battlefield, and they carried away the dead soldiers of both sides.

The Turks dug a big pit to bury them, and their own people had to report to their families and ask their families to take them back.

The Xi people were happy but also sad. The brothers who boasted together yesterday were gone today.

"Let's see how Li Dongzhu arranges it." Shi Yue looked at the Xi people and couldn't bear to grab the spoils.

The families of the dead soldiers would be very sad. How would they live in the future?

They probably hoped to get compensation, so they took the spoils themselves...

"Hurry up and treat them, battalion commander, we have to save people, we have things." A man who had just packed up his gun ran over.

"Yes, see who is injured. Hurry, the losses will be greater after the war. The injured Turks will be rescued later."

Shi Yue reacted and realized that his team had medicine and surgical tools.

Everyone was in high spirits, stopped chatting, and got down to business.

They shouted and dispersed, and most of them ran back. There were many injured people in the camp, and the Xi people suffered less losses on the way to the chase.

...

The pigeons flew back to Li's manor.

The pigeon breeder took off the bamboo tube and looked for Song De.

Song De hesitated for a moment and went to the government hall of the manor.

"Pigeons, pigeons, carrier pigeons. Prime Minister Bi, the carrier pigeons are back."

No one stopped Song De from entering the government hall. There were no guards at the entrance of the government hall. Zhuangzi's government hall was absolutely safe.

"Where are the pigeons?" The four prime ministers arrived.

"From Japan." Song De took out two bamboo tubes.

"Send them to your boss. He insisted on going to Lantian County, delaying things."

Song Jing refused to take it. What's the point of telling him and others about the pigeons from Japan?

"Manager Song, pigeons, there are pigeons back again." The voice of the pigeon breeder came from outside.

Song De ran out and entered the hall again within half a minute, holding two red bamboo tubes in his hands: "The pigeons of the Heavenly Soldiers."

"Quick, take it out and translate it." Once Song Jing saw the color of the bamboo tube, he didn't care about anything else.

Open one, find the code book of Tianbingjun, and look up the words.

"One battalion of soldiers marched three hundred miles north, and five thousand Turkic cavalry were sent to attack the Turks. They reported news from both ends and followed. Twenty thousand of our own troops went north to block the return route." The translator read out.

"Farming and farming, you know how to farm. Quick, send the other bamboo tube, Li Yi is causing trouble." Su Ting stamped his feet anxiously.

"The ministers and assistants can't decide?" Song De was unhappy. You, Minister of the Ministry of War, didn't say anything. Why do you blame my boss for doing this?

The four Bi Gou looked at each other and looked at each other.

"Sending troops to fight the Turks? Is there any fighting situation among the five thousand Turkic soldiers? UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Is there internal chaos in the Turks?"

Zhang Jiuling was worried and his eyes darkened.

'uh-huh! ’ Bi Gou coughed and said: “For border matters, the guarding general is the most important. Jiazhen is in charge and has good command. We should ask him what he should do.”

"Send people to bring more pigeons." Song Jing could only do this.

The Tang Dynasty did not want to fight anyone, but how to fight. The court delegated power to local generals.

The court can only arrange for people who can rest assured. The court will not issue any specific orders for troop mobilization.

The fighter planes flew by in an instant, sending news back and forth, and the battle over there was over.

"I'll send it to the proprietor." Song De took a red bamboo tube and two Japanese bamboo tubes and ran out to arrange the fast horses.

"Xiaoyi gave the Xi people a lot of good things, half sold and half given away, and allowed credit. I think this battle will be won. The Turks..."

Bi Gou said soothing words and could not guess the internal situation of the Turks.
