Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 586 Rout
Chapter 600 Rout
"Quickly go to the front to inquire!" During the break, the king of Tubo ordered the horse to inquire.

An hour later, the explorer who had run away came back, got off his horse, and hurriedly reported: "Report to the king! A checkpoint is found 35 miles ahead!"

"The checkpoint? You mean, the checkpoint in Youzhou?" The Tubo king was drinking in his leather bag. Hearing this, he stopped drinking and asked with a frown.

Tan Ma lowered his head and replied, "Return to Your Majesty, that's exactly the case!"

"The checkpoint... It seems that Qin Yang is somewhat prepared! This king wants to see what kind of checkpoint can be built in a short period of time!"

He directly gave the order, break out the camp, and set off!

As the camp was uprooted and we moved forward again, we will soon arrive at a distance of thirty miles.

When the distance was about five miles, he sent someone to investigate again.

This time, the inquiring person looked very carefully, and he didn't just go back and forth in a hurry like before, so when he came back and talked to him, he also explained it in detail.

"You mean, that checkpoint is not a city rising from the ground, but a small town?"

Hearing this, the Tubo king became even more curious.

How could such a place be called a checkpoint?
That's right, Tan Ma came back and said that outside the small town, there was a long barbed wire fence.

Are the Youzhou people planning to block his [-] troops with a piece of barbed wire?

How ridiculous!

The king of Tubo couldn't help laughing. He led 1000 people, rode closer, stood on a slightly higher slope, and looked into the distance.

A few miles away, a house can be clearly seen.

Some of the houses are very high, some are very low, and they are stacked on top of each other, which looks a little weird.

But if it is said that this is a small town, the King of Tubo also thinks it is true.

Generally speaking, setting up checkpoints on the border means building a city!

Even if it is a small city, high walls must be built and a moat dug out!
Once a foreign enemy invades, the suspension bridge needs to be lowered and hoisted!
But generally speaking, there are some geographical requirements for building such a city.

It cannot be built on too vast land. If there are detours around it, what is the point of building such a city?
Generally, after it is built, although there are small roads to bypass, the army can only pass through the city gate!

If you can't beat the city, you can't pass through it. Only such a place can be regarded as a checkpoint.

The place in front of the king of Tubo is actually quite suitable for the geographical card, and it is indeed suitable for building a checkpoint.

But in this piece of housing construction, neither a high city wall was built nor a moat was dug out to make a suspension bridge. Under such circumstances, who can be defended?
"The Vanguard will obey orders!"

The Tubo king said suddenly.

One of the generals who followed him immediately came out, knelt down, and said, "Your servant listens to the order!"

"This king orders you to immediately lead 5000 people to break through this so-called checkpoint! Kill all the people inside, and leave no one behind!"

"Yes!"

Following the order of the Tubo king, the vanguard will immediately go back to order troops, and the [-] vanguard army will rush forward immediately, and rush towards the front checkpoint.

In the expectation of the Tubo king, these 5000 people will surely be able to directly smash through this checkpoint like a big river that has released the flood!

The Datang people inside will also be easily killed like cattle and sheep!
After all, 5000 people is already a huge area, and how big is this so-called small town?

What is the obstruction of the barbed wire? You only need to use a little tricks to tear the barbed wire apart. These are not things that can stop Tubo's iron hooves!
Therefore, when the [-] vanguards went to charge, the king of Tubo looked very comfortable, standing on the high slope, looking over there, with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, waiting to see The moment when this level that he didn't like was broken.

But who knew, at the moment when the 5000 people rushed over, there was a strange rumbling sound that made all the Tubo people who heard it tremble subconsciously, and it rang directly!

"what!"

Some of the hundreds of people rushing to the front were blown up, and some fell down screaming.

In the miasma, the situation over there suddenly disappeared.

In the thick smoke, the sound of da da da da sounded suddenly, and it continued continuously!

"It's the sky thunder! The sky thunder of the Youzhou people!" Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

The Tubo king turned around abruptly, looked at the man viciously, and said angrily, "Draw him down and kill him!"

"Yes!" Immediately, someone rushed up and dragged the person who slipped his words down.

"This is just a grenade developed by the people of Youzhou. It is made of something called gunpowder. It is not a thunderbolt! It is not a punishment from heaven! If someone deceives people with false rumors, they will be killed!"

The Tubo king's words barely stabilized the situation.

But it is not known how many of these Tibetans who have been stabilized for the time believed his words, and how many were panicked.

The Tubo king's mood became very bad!
The reason why he dared to send people to carry out this war was because he was sure that he had obtained real information from Youzhou!

Although the military intelligence obtained through military exercises still makes him a little worried, this kind of worry is not boundless, but controllable!
He felt that he was already mentally prepared!
But reality gave him a head-on blow!

Only now did he know that Youzhou possessed such a powerful weapon without his knowledge!
"Damn it!" The Tubo king's eyes were on fire, and after the dust finally cleared, he finally saw the situation there clearly. Miserable is just one word!

With 5000 people, it seemed that a large part of them had been cleared out in an instant!
The rest of the people have already fled down!

Morale plummeted!
I thought that this charge would boost the morale of the Tubo army he brought, but it turned out to be counterproductive!
"Retreat first!" The king of Tubo is not a reckless man who rampages on the battlefield. When he realized that there was no advantage to take advantage of this charge, and the previous checkpoint did not give him a good feeling, the king of Tubo endured it. Holding his breath, he waved his hand and announced the temporary withdrawal of troops!
With this withdrawal, they retreated thirty miles back from the temporary campsite!

It is equivalent to saying that he has returned to the place where he camped at the beginning!
"Send someone to investigate again! Make sure to find out what is going on at that checkpoint!" In the large tent of the Chinese army, the Tubo king walked back and forth, his face livid, and he said angrily.

The people he sent out not only went for that checkpoint, but also went to other places!
The reason why the king of Tubo dared to send troops this time was because he had made a lot of preparations!
Not to mention anything else, there are some of his spies operating in the Beidi counties near Youzhou.

He was also coerced and lured by his people, and some local officials were instigated.

Although these people are not from Youzhou, they can also provide great help during the war.

A group of pigeons flew towards the sky, and then flew everywhere.
