Chapter 873: Defeat

Muradin attacked the Zhou camp at night, and although it was not a victory, the gain was not small.

Looking at the Zhou camp that was still burning in the distance, Mu Radin knew that this time it was just ruining some corners, and there was no damage to the enemy's overall strength, but he was pleasantly surprised to find that the Zhou people were not as strong as he thought.

The terrain outside the Jinniu Pass is open, and it is basically impossible to hide his night attack, and in the case of the preparation of the Zhou people, his results will not be too much. But the loss is less than I thought.

These Zhou soldiers advanced and retreated well-founded, encircled in an orderly manner, and obviously had been trained, but the degree of tacit understanding and individual combat strength were insufficient, so that the original command did not achieve the maximum effect.

In the past few days, the other side has taken turns attacking the city, and with the cooperation of firearms, the shortcomings of the battle are not obvious. It wasn't until after the two sides faced each other that Muradin had a rough estimate of the strength of the two sides.

On the second day, someone came to report that the Zhou people had retreated fifteen miles, and Muradin immediately asked people to step up the repair of the city defenses, it seems that passive defense is still the best policy, his troops are elite enough to defeat the opponent head-on, but if the city is defended, the enemy's firearms can offset their advantage.

Although I didn't get a heavy blow to the enemy last night, I guess the other party was aware of it, so I distanced myself. It is not easy for them to attack the city during the day, but it is not easy to attack at night.

What should I do? Do I continue to wait for the Great Khan to win the victory, or do I take the risk and take the initiative? If I can win, maybe I can still respond to the Great Khan's offensive from the north.

While Muladin was thinking about the battle situation, Chun Yu Wuji and Huangfu Yan, who had retreated fifteen miles to camp, also settled down.

Chun Yu Wuji said: "It should be almost here yet, this group of recruits still haven't been able to adapt to the battlefield." ”

Huangfu Yan said: "After this battle, it has been a lot better, after all, it has only been training for half a year, although there have been several battles since the Southern Expedition, and I have seen a little blood. But most of them are also fighting more and less, and fighting the weak with the strong. It is unrealistic to expect them to become the elite of a hundred battles right away. ”

"What is Muradin's strength? A few days ago, I watched the duel between you in the city and under the city, after all, there was a deviation, this time it was a narrow road encounter, with your archery skills, such a distance can't keep him?"

"Muradine does have the means to shoot on horseback, the key is that he has the pride of a marksman, but also the consciousness of a commander. ”

Mu Latin and Huangfu Yan shot at each other, both of them are masters of this way, and their hearts are inevitably boiling with blood and want to see a real chapter, Huangfu Yan is okay, as the commander of the guard side, just fight hard. On the contrary, Muradin, although he was excited, still remembered his responsibility, so he did not choose to lead the team to leave. Seeing this, Huangfu Yan felt regretful in his heart, but also a little appreciation.

"Don't be busy praising him, there is such a person in Taurus Pass, we want to go over, I'm afraid it's not easy. Chun Yu Wuji said.

Huangfu Yan said: "Don't worry, although Mu Ladin is powerful, it is a pity that he is alone and helpless, and the Golden Bull Pass is not without flaws." ”

Chun Yu Wuji was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you going to fly across the Gazi Cliff!?

There is a mountain range here to block the north and south, Jinniuguan is located in the mountain pass, the front and back are open places, the left and right mountain walls are towering, the narrow mountain road ordinary foot traders, medicine pickers can do it alone, but the larger caravan can not go.

Legend has it that the original mountain range traversed the north and south, blocking the traffic, the people could only go over the mountains and mountains, and then there was a golden sacred cow that crashed through the mountain pass, forming a passage. Later, there were people in power who built a pass here, named Jinniu Pass, and used it as a war fortress while collecting taxes from each other.

Huang Fu Yan's more than a year of the West Queen Mother Pass general army is not in vain, he has figured out that there is a mountain peak not far from Jinniu Pass named Gazi Cliff, the terrain under the mountain is acceptable, enough to send a small group of soldiers and horses around.

Chun Yu Wuji also knows this, but the other side of Gazi Cliff is not easy to descend, so it is not too much to use the word Feidu.

"If I could, I'd rather take Hedara first. Huang Fu Yan replied.

Chun Yu Wuji asked, "Is that the third largest city in the Ganman Alliance, is it only a small group of people?"

"It's a bit exciting, but I've already sent people to explore in the past two days. ”

Originally, he wanted to use force to conquer the Golden Bull Pass, but after two days of defeat, Huangfu Yan naturally had a new idea, and was ready to send a few capable subordinates to investigate one or two.

......

On the southern battlefield, Xiumier City has been crumbling under the repeated attacks.

Ruan Yu and Chang Xiu didn't dare to be careless when they reached this step, and suddenly a cavalry sentry came to report, and there were about thousands of cavalry coming quickly not far away, although there were sentry sentinels, but I was afraid it was too late to intercept.

Ruan Yu frowned: "Where did this cavalry come from? Only Xiu Mi'er City has this strength nearby, but now they are surrounded by us." ”

Huang Ping on the other side was puzzled: "Could it be reinforcements from Dadun Pass?"

Chang Xiu denied: "It's impossible, I have to send them early." We have also heard of the situation in Datun Pass, where the Charles, in order to seize the tariffs for their own profit, used their relatives and excluded other tribes. How could the private soldiers of the Charles, who had already been in Datun Pass, do such a corrupt thing. ”

Ruan Yu said: "Now is not the time to find the reason, you continue to attack the city, and I will lead the cavalry troops to stop it." With that, he led the team to attack.

"Siege?" Chang Xiu suddenly looked at Xiu Mi'er City: "Could it be the troops of Xiu Mi'er City!?"

Huang Ping beside him was also puzzled: "I felt the same way just now, but these days they have resisted very fiercely, the city is only a few thousand defenders, if the main force really goes out of the city, then these days can only be the people of the city." ”

Chang Xiu nodded: "Yes, it seems that we all underestimate the loyalty of the people here to the Ganman Alliance." ”

Ruan Yu led people to the side, the cavalry in the distance had already seen the battle, Ruan Yu waved his spear without hesitation: "Destroy them for me!"

The leader came with the golden-faced god of war's granddaughter, Parida, who now wears her grandfather's golden mask and holds two spears in her hands, leading the Xiu Mi Ear cavalry to charge and kill.

Seeing from afar that Ruan Yu had already intercepted and killed head-on, Parida ordered: "Don't fight, rush all the way!"

There was a herald beside him who raised the signal flag and waved a flag, which was a tactic that Parida had set up early on, using the technique of piercing and chiseling, killing from one side to the other. Don't stay, don't fight.

Ruan Yu saw that the leader was wearing a golden mask, and he had already heard of the name of the golden-faced god of war here, and knew the meaning of his existence, so he was the first to kill him.

Parida and Ruan Yu collided, two guns touched spears, and they didn't see much from each other, but they saw that they were also women at close range. After a few rounds of hurriedly fighting, Ruan Yu secretly said that the other party was also a master, but it was by no means the golden-faced god of war who had been in the cold for decades. And the other party is not in love with war, and tries his best to get out of the war.

Palida had just staggered and was about to leave, how could Ruan Yu let her run away like this, after the spear was pierced, she saw her wrist twisted, and the entire body of the spear also rotated, sliding and stabbing at Palida, "Electric light piercing the heart drill!!" With a snort, Ruan Yu wanted to pick Palida off the horse.

Just as she turned sideways, Parida held her spears in both hands, but with a pick at her feet, she stepped on the longbow on the side of her horse.

Ruan Yu's electric light pierced through the wind, Parida's body twisted, broke out of the saddle and dodged a stab, her body hung on the side of the horse, her foot stepped on the bow, one hand retracted the two spears and pulled the reins, and the other hand quickly drew the arrow, and the hands and feet used to pull the longbow together.

Angry and arrowed straight at Ruan Yu, Ruan Yu had a lot of experience in fighting, and hurriedly turned sideways to dodge. Although the flying bow dodged, it still removed a large piece of armor and flesh from Ruan Yu's shoulder and arm. It was at this moment that Ruan Yu saw the opponent's extraordinary archery and equestrian skills. In terms of the power of this arrow, I am afraid that it is no less than Huangfu Yan, of course, it is also Huangfu Yan who did not launch the Qixia Divine Arrow, and the usual state of Huangfu Yan.

The Humier cavalry had no appetite for battle, but only rushed quickly to try to get out of the battle. But in this way, he has been in a situation where he has been chased and fought back, and it is easy to be put down from behind. After more than 3,000 people rushed out to intercept it, it was already nearly 20% less.

However, it can be regarded as breaking out of the encirclement network, and Ruan Yu's military order has changed from 'stop them' to 'chase quickly'!

Under the leadership of Parida, the Xiu Mier cavalry rushed to the position of the Zhou army, and Chang Xiu and Huang Ping immediately organized an encirclement and suppression.

The soldiers and civilians of Xiumier City, who could barely hold out on to the city, saw their cavalry attacking the enemy camp and knew that they had not wasted the past few days. In particular, Parida wears a golden mask, as if the god of war was reborn decades ago. The morale of the soldiers and civilians in the city was greatly boosted, raising their weapons and shouting in the Ganliang dialect, and singing the praises of the golden-faced god of war.

Chang Xiu held a phoenix mouth knife and rushed directly towards Palida, Palida staggered her two spears to resist the attacking blade, and then resisted with one shot, and stabbed Chang Xiu with one shot. Chang Xiu evaded, and Parida took the opportunity to pass by by mistake.

And the cavalry of Xiumier City not only rushed to kill, but also ran to the artillery position, some set fire to the ammunition, some killed experienced artillerymen, and some even tied the artillery with a lasso and pulled it down with horsepower.

After a scourge, the Xiu Mi Er cavalry cut through the Zhou army's position and walked away, and at this time, Ruan Yu also led the team to chase and kill, Chang Xiu shouted from afar: "Ruan Yu, this ranger must be eliminated." ”

Ruan Yu chased and killed all the way, the opponent ran all the way, Parida couldn't get rid of Ruan Yu at all, and seeing that another hundred and ten people fell off their horses while pursuing, it was only a matter of time before this Xiu Mi Er cavalry was eliminated.

At this time, Parida lured Ruan Yu to lead the team into a place called Huifeng Valley, where the wind passes through the valley all the year round, hence the name, Ruan Yu just chased in and found that something was wrong, the valley is not narrow but not spacious, but on both sides is covered with linoleum with firewood carts.

Ruan Yu immediately said: "Quick, exit this valley!" The cavalry troops stopped so easily, and they had gone a lot deeper as they spoke.

As soon as the words fell, several burning rockets fell into the valley, and they burned instantly with the help of the wind, but fortunately, the combustibles were limited, and Ruan Yu saw the opportunity quickly, although there was damage, it was not too big. It's just that this fire has closed the road, and it is impossible to pursue it again.
