Chapter One Thousand and Fifty-Three Hexi Recovers

"Longevity God!...Buddha!...Da Ming Zun!...The God of Light!..." The servants from different tribes completely forgot to attack at this moment, and got off their horses and knelt on the ground to pray to the gods they believed in .

But at the top of the city, the Tubo people are still in dizziness and have not recovered. The Tubo guards in the city have long been stunned by the shock wave of the explosion; only the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty under Shen Long are motionless. They have already seen it in training. The power of the explosion restrained the horses under their crotches, and quickly prepared to attack.

"Attack!" Shen Long gave the order without hesitation, and rushed to the front, followed by Yun Erlang and others with soldiers and horses, rushed to the gap in an instant, and entered the city of Suzhou.

The ferocious Tubo soldiers suddenly suffered such drastic changes, and they couldn’t recover completely. Most of them knelt on the ground and prayed for the blessing of the Buddha. Soon the gates of the city were occupied by soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty, and they attacked the top of the city.

Under Guo Xin's urging, Prince Bahana, Gu Dulu, Kang Guangde and others also woke up, and hurriedly took part in the battle with their own soldiers and horses. The Tubo soldiers and horses were defeated in the chaos. Most of the people were wiped out in the city, only a small number of people escaped from the east gate and went to Ganzhou in the east.

Suzhou fell into the hands of Datang with such ease, and hardly lost many soldiers and horses. The people of Datang who were liberated wept with joy, while those servants were still immersed in the panic of the explosion. Could it be that Datang had obtained the power of the gods? Bless you, has Mr. Jinglue obtained the magic weapon bestowed by the gods?

Shen Long didn't explain, let them think about this kind of thing. Fear often comes from the unknown, and it is a good thing for Shen Long to make them fear Datang. He doesn't need to alleviate the fear of these people.

Rescued the people of Datang, left some soldiers and horses to guard Suzhou City, and asked them to escort the Tubo captives to build the city wall. They used to escort the people of Datang to do these things, but now it is just the other way around, let them also Get a taste of being squeezed.

After the matter in Suzhou City was settled, Shen Long and Guo Xin continued to lead the army to attack eastward, defeating several groups of soldiers and horses that blocked the road, and walked along the foot of Qilian Mountain to the outside of Ganzhou City. According to the notice of the army, the guards of Ganzhou City did not stand guard in the city, but led the army to wait outside the city for the arrival of the Datang Allied Forces.

This suits Shen Long's appetite. You have to dig tunnels and bury gunpowder under the city wall while guarding the city, but now you just need to defeat them in the wild.

Maybe they felt that they were blessed by the gods, or they felt that they were too ashamed in the battle of Suzhou. The servants from the Uighurs, Bahana, Shatuo Turks and other tribes broke out with strong fighting spirit and attacked under the command of Shen Long. Through the formation of the Tubo people, tens of thousands were captured in the first battle, and the Tubo army was defeated.

Field wins,

The defeated army didn't dare to enter the city, and walked around the city directly, and the few remaining defenders in the city also fled from the city quickly. Therefore, Ganzhou City became an empty city, and it easily fell into the hands of Datang.

"Now only Liangzhou is left in the hands of the Tubo people among the seven states in Hexi!" Sitting in the government office in the city, Guo Xin beamed happily; the seven states in Hexi are Liangzhou, Ganzhou, Suzhou, Guazhou, and Shazhou , Yizhou, and Xizhou, and now the other six cities have returned to Datang. If Liangzhou is broken again, Hexi will all belong to Datang.

"I'm sure I won't keep Dadu Hu waiting for long!" Shen Long said with a smile. The previous two wars caused heavy losses in the Tubo people's troops in Hexi and Longyou, and made them full of fear of Datang. Compared with Liangzhou, they would not Is it too difficult to fight?

Just like before, the first thing Shen Long did when he took Ganzhou was to rescue the citizens of the Tang Dynasty who were captured by the Tubo people. The citizens of the Tang Dynasty who regained their freedom wept with joy. Shen Long took this opportunity to select many young and strong people to join the army , Maybe they can't go directly to the battlefield now, but they can learn a lot by marching with the army.

They first try to be responsible for transporting supplies, guarding prisoners and other chores, and at the same time learning military discipline and martial arts. After one or two battles, they can try to chase the enemy with the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. After re-cutting the Silk Road, they will be Qualified fighters can become an effective supplementary force for the Protectorate.

Now the number of soldiers and horses in the Duhu Mansion is really too small, and Shen Long has arranged many people to guard the newly conquered city along the way, so the troops have to be constantly replenished.

Go east along the road you walked with Master Wukong last time to reach Liangzhou. The guards of Liangzhou are completely in a dilemma at this time. Did you mention the city and field battle? I'm afraid they won't be able to defeat Datang's army, but if they defend the city to consume the Tang army and wait for reinforcements to arrive, the city wall may not be safe, right?

Who can guarantee that the methods used by the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty in Suzhou will not be used again? If so, who would dare to go up to the city wall to defend? After thinking about it for a while, the guard simply went out and led his troops out of the city to find the Tang coalition army for a field battle.

At this time, Tubo was still extremely fierce. Even if he failed, he had to fight a battle first. Even if he lost, it was much better than dying suffocated in the city.

The morale of the Tang coalition forces is getting higher and higher, while the Tubo soldiers and horses are in a panic. Under such circumstances, how can they win? So the Allied Forces of the Tang Dynasty won the battle again, gained a lot of gains, and there was an undefended Liangzhou City.

Don't look forward to Li Qingche, my soldiers and horses from the Tang Dynasty are back again, Shen Long murmured in his heart, and then led the army into Liangzhou to rescue those citizens of the Tang Dynasty who had been captured for a long time.

Since then, all the seven prefectures in Hexi have returned to Datang. Now as long as they penetrate Guangwu, Lanzhou and Weizhou, they can enter the territory of Datang Fengxiang Mansion. When they arrive at Fengxiang Mansion, they are only a short distance away from Chang'an City.

It is thousands of miles away from Tingzhou to Liangzhou, and only about a thousand miles from Liangzhou to Fengxiang Mansion. Thousands of miles may seem very far to others, but for those who fought in Suiye City, which was thousands of miles away last year, For the soldiers, it seems that they are close at hand, and their hearts are full of longing for Chang'an.

"I can finally see Chang'an, what a great city it will be?" Prince Bahana, Kang Guangde and others were fascinated by it.

The white-haired soldiers under Shen Long were already teary-eyed. When they left Chang'an City, they were only seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys, but now they have white hair and wrinkled faces. This time I can finally go home.
