Kapitel 8: Chapter 8: The Advance Army of the Tibetan Forces
Xiao Fan: ((((;ﾟДﾟ)))))))
The Tibetans had indeed arrived!
Xiao Fan watched as the little figures of Shule Town scrambled around, feeling nervous himself.
"Mount up! Prepare to face the enemy!" Lu Yang, the valiant captain of the Tang's Anxi Army, immediately ordered his soldiers to get ready for battle.
At this moment, on the western edge of the ecological box, amidst the swirling yellow sand, soldiers on small horses emerged one after another. These soldiers were dressed in exotic attire, wearing felt hats. The lead horsemen carried a flag with the symbol of a snow-capped mountain and the sun—the emblem of the Tibetan Empire.
Xiao Fan surveyed the rows of Tibetan cavalry, counting them quickly. Surprisingly, there were a thousand horsemen in formation.
In contrast, the Tang's Anxi Army led by Lu Yang had only fifteen riders. Even if all the villagers of Shule Town were taken into account, they wouldn't amount to even a tenth of the opposing force.
Xiao Fan: Σ（・□・;）
Damn, what kind of battle is this? The disparity is just outrageous! Xiao Fan thought to himself.
However, the little figures in Shule Town couldn't hear Xiao Fan's thoughts. Lu Yang had already led the Anxi Army to form up outside the earthen city walls, and the little figures inside Shule Town were nervous, with the elderly, women, and children having sought refuge in thatched houses. The male figures, armed with rudimentary farm tools, guarded the mud walls.
"Lord God, we implore you to help us." Yao Xi looked toward the sky, praying to Xiao Fan, the Lord God.
I know, I know, but how can I help you? Xiao Fan, now anxiously overlooking the entire ecological box, felt like ants on a hot pot.
Within the ecological box, the Tibetan cavalry had quickly assembled, lining up in two rows. They appeared relaxed, having recently conquered the Tang's Beiting Prefecture and being in high spirits, not giving the opposing Tang cavalry and Anxi troops a second thought.
Among the Tibetan cavalry, a little figure rode forward from the formation, challenging Lu Yang, "Listen, abandoned people of the Great Tang! I am Duoji, the son of Chisong Dezhan, under the command of the Tibetan Prince Mu Di Ru Zan. I now order you to disarm and surrender immediately! You may keep your lives! Men can become slaves, as for the women..." Duoji said, revealing a lewd and sinister expression, prompting laughter from the surrounding Tibetan cavalry.
"Shut up! You mere barbarians dare to negotiate with the soldiers of the Great Tang? We, the citizens of the Great Tang, the warriors of Huaxia, cannot allow your barbaric horde to trample on us. Anxi soldiers, charge with me!" Lu Yang loudly rebuked the Tibetan cavalry. He gripped the reins with his left hand, drew his Tang sword with his right, and charged toward the Tibetan army.
The dozen or so Tang cavalry behind Lu Yang also charged with him. Although the Tang's Anxi Army was at a severe numerical disadvantage, each soldier faced the situation with a determination to die. Their majestic momentum and resolute courage created a tragic sense of heroism above the yellow sand.
"Kill!"
This suicidal move stunned the Tibetan cavalry on the opposite side. They had a thousand riders, while the Tang forces had only a dozen.
"Seeking death! Kill! Slaughter all the Tang people in Shule!" Duoji shouted, rallying the somewhat wavering Tibetan cavalry and leading his army to charge.
This scene frustrated Xiao Fan, who cursed Lu Yang as a courageous but tactless fool.
There was no other choice; desperate times called for desperate measures. Xiao Fan's brain worked at lightning speed. If spraying water into the ecological box could simulate rainfall, it meant he could directly influence the environment inside the ecological box.
With this in mind, Xiao Fan took a deep breath and then blew as hard as he could toward the ecological box.
At this moment, above the battlefield in the ecological box, the clear sky with no clouds suddenly transformed into a hurricane, stirring up yellow sand and creating a scene that blocked out the sky, as if the wrath of a divine being.
The fierce wind blew from behind Lu Yang toward the Tibetan army. Facing the hurricane, the Tibetan cavalry, witnessing this astonishing celestial phenomenon, were momentarily stunned, and their charging formation fell into disarray.
"Good opportunity! Soldiers, the Divine Being has shown favor! Charge!" Lu Yang had not placed his hopes on the elusive divine being, but at this moment, he had to admit that the divine being was indeed protecting them, sheltering the people of Shule.
"Oh my, the Divine Being has manifested! Charge!"
"Charge! With the protection of the Divine Being, Shule will not fall!"
The morale of the Tang's Anxi Army soared!
Xiao Fan: (^◇^;)
Seeing the reversal on the battlefield in the ecological box, Xiao Fan felt immense joy. It seemed his actions were indeed correct.
The two armies clashed, and the Tang's Anxi Army, like a sharp dagger, cut through the Tibetan formation from the middle.
Leading the charge, Lu Yang swung his Tang sword, slashing left and right, and killed three Tibetan cavalry in one go.
It was Xiao Fan's first time witnessing a war scene. He saw red liquid spurting from the necks of the little figures, staining the yellow sand below, turning it into a brownish color in the next moment.
"Don't panic! Reassemble! Kill these damn Tang people!" Duoji was caught off guard by Lu Yang but did his best to command, considering the Tibetan cavalry's absolute numerical advantage.
Cavalry charges rely heavily on reassembling for another assault. Duoji immediately directed the scattered Tibetan cavalry to regroup and charge again against Lu Yang and the Tang's Anxi Army.
Both sides regrouped and clashed again!
This time, Lu Yang wasn't as fortunate. A Tibetan warrior's scimitar directly cut open Lu Yang's right arm. However, relying on his martial skills, Lu Yang still managed to kill two enemies.
However, other Tang's Anxi soldiers were not as fortunate. One Tang soldier was chopped off his horse by Tibetan cavalry and immediately surrounded, falling victim to a chaotic onslaught.
Xiao Fan: (⊙_⊙)
Xiao Fan watched with a pounding heart. What else could he do? He had to do something!
However, at this moment, as the Tang's Anxi Army and Tibetan cavalry clashed and swapped positions during the charge, Duoji turned his gaze back towards Shule Town, hatching a sinister plan.
"Form up! Charge towards Shule Town!" Duoji immediately commanded.
Oh no!
Sacking the city! A sense of fear rose in Xiao Fan's heart. The Tibetan cavalry intended to sack the city!
Although Shule Town was considered a city, it was merely a city built from mud. The city walls were only as high as the waist of the little figures, approximately one meter tall, and some parts were entirely incomplete. The Tibetan cavalry could easily cross these walls.
If these Tibetan cavalrymen entered the city, the villagers of Shule Town would have no way to escape.
"Not good! Charge! Defend Shule Town!" Lu Yang also realized this and immediately ordered the Tang soldiers to fall back.
However, Lu Yang and his men were only ten, while the Tibetan cavalry still numbered at least nine hundred. They divided into two groups, with two hundred blocking the Tang's Anxi Army, and the other main force charging towards Shule Town.
"Oh no! We're finished! We're going to die!" A male villager from Shule Town, seeing the Tibetan cavalry rushing towards them like fierce tigers, let out a desperate scream.
Other villagers fell into despair.
"We mustn't panic! I believe in the Divine Being! The Divine Being will save us!" At this moment, behind the city walls of Shule Town, a young girl spoke.
Her voice wasn't loud amidst the clamor of the battlefield, but it comforted the panicked villagers of Shule Town.
This young girl was Yao Xi, and at this moment, she looked up at the sky, gazing at the young and handsome Divine Being.
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo!
Suddenly, an invisible force swept across the battlefield. Dozens, even hundreds of Tibetan soldiers were lifted into the air!
In the next instant, these Tibetan soldiers and their horses fell from high above!
Screams, the neighing of horses, accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of bones breaking, echoed invisibly on the battlefield!
