Chapter 1181: The Great War is Imminent

Zhang Yuanzuo clenched his teeth and immediately made the decision to retreat, he suddenly smelled danger. The big cannibal first had the trick of luring the enemy, and then launched another attack, which should be to annihilate his thousands of cavalry and then quickly.

Obviously, he didn't have the strength to go head-to-head with the Great Eater Cavalry, so speeding up the evacuation naturally became the best choice.

"Report! A large force of unknown cavalry swooped down from the northwest!"

Zhang Yuanzuo was taken aback, the action of the big cannibal was so fast, if it was a little slower, he might be completely bitten and annihilated.

"The whole army retreats, quickly, quickly......"

He is no longer a fledgling calf, and of course he knows that now is not the time for him to fight hard, and it is possible to make a comeback by dodging the ferocious attacks of the big cannibals.

The Persian general Abu was also frightened, he had never seen Yusuf attack so swift and ferocious, and all the triumph of the success of his small plan had been thrown out of the clouds, and if he was captured alive, Yusuf's means of punishing the betrayer were chilling.

Thinking of this, Abu wanted to run away with his legs, but seeing that Zhang Yuanzuo could command the army at a critical moment, he secretly admired in his heart, and he had no such psychological quality.

However, where is the time to take care of who admires whom, and it is too late to escape!

Just when Zhang Yuanzuo and hundreds of followers personally stayed behind to delay the pursuers and cover the withdrawal of the brigade from the battlefield, Abu galloped away desperately, in his consciousness, only the farther he fled to the east, the safer he was.

Many of Abu's subordinates stayed behind to fight alongside the Tang soldiers, but as the commander of the first army, he abandoned his subordinates and fled eastward with only one hundred and ten followers.

The instinct on the battlefield was like this, Abu was not a brave man, so he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty without any resistance after Hasim's deception. In the end, it's all about the fear of death.

But just when Abu thought that he was free from the threat of the Great Cannibal Blade, he suddenly found that the east was actually raising smoke and dust, and he was frightened, and muttered to himself in a daze:

"Yusuf, Yousuf is so powerful, it seems that he is going to die here today!"

Abu looked desperately to the east, his way back was stopped by the cannibals, and he was afraid that unless he had wings, he would never be able to escape.

"Yes, it's the Tang ......"

Suddenly, Abu rubbed his eyes, and only then did he clearly see that under the smoke and dust that covered the sky and the sun, it was the Tang Army battle flag that was hunting in the wind!

In an instant, Abu felt as if his whole body had lost his strength, and he almost fell off his horse.

It was the main force of the Western Expeditionary Army under the personal command of Qin Jin who rushed over.

Yousuf looked at his masterpiece proudly, the Tang Dynasty cavalry was really fooled, he first used relatively weak troops to lure and stimulate the Tang Dynasty cavalry's desire to fight, and then launched an attack with the elite Persian guards around him, so that those people would be difficult to get out of the sky.

But his pride didn't last long, and soon the news of Tang Bing's large-scale killing was sent back by Tanma.

At this time, Yusuf could no longer stand on the city wall safely, and he had to personally go to the front of the enemy to direct the battle. But he immediately dispelled this idea again, now he is the commander of thousands of troops, and he is no longer the commander who leads the charge of the army, this impulse is unacceptable.

"Order, the big * sharp is on standby, waiting for the prey to collide with itself!"

The Persian guards were known for their ferocity, and they destroyed the morale of the Tang forward cavalry almost instantly, but the arrival of Tang reinforcements also made them realize that total annihilation was impossible.

However, Yusuf did not give them the order to retreat, so they could only continue to pursue and kill for a long time.

In fact, after the Tang cavalry found out that the reinforcements had arrived, their morale and will to fight immediately rebounded, and even organized a counterattack, and the losses of the Persian guards were not light.

However, the gap in combat effectiveness was still obvious, and the counterattack of the Tang Dynasty's forward soldiers was finally suppressed.

Zhang Yuanzuo was hit by several arrows in his body, and his body hurt as if it was not his own, he had not been so seriously injured since he joined the army. Even the injuries he suffered outside Zhangye City were only flesh wounds, and they did not hurt his muscles and bones.

But this time, his right arm could no longer be raised, and he could only barely control the horse with his left hand to prevent him from falling off his horse.

"Fight to the death, fight to the death!"

Since joining the Shenwu Army, this is the third time he has faced a life-and-death choice, or the threat of death, and there is no second way to choose in front of him, so he can only face death bravely.

The difference is only that the first time was the rebellion of the Tibetan people, and there was no danger. The second time was Yusuf's encirclement and annihilation, and there was still no danger.

This time, Zhang Yuanzuo smiled bitterly, even if reinforcements are imminent, the same distant water is difficult to quench the thirst of the near. He hated in his heart, if it weren't for Zhang Ye's loss in the first battle, with the strength of the cavalry under his command, at least he would have fought a tie with the enemy he faced today.

It's a pity that there are no ifs in this world, and the reality he faces is so cruel.

Fight to the death! Fight to the death!

With Zhang Yuanzuo taking the lead, the rest of the cavalry were shouting excitedly in despair.

They have all been determined to die, if once people get rid of the scruples of death, then what is there to fear?

At the same time, the Persian cavalry also began to gather and encircle, and slaughtered the Tang Dynasty cavalry with absolute superiority.

Since Yusuf did not order them to withdraw their troops, they could only withdraw from the battlefield after the military order to completely annihilate the Tang forward cavalry, so as to avoid the reinforcements of the Tang brigade.

Yusuf was a harsh commander and a mean to his subordinates who were unable to fulfill their orders.

As for the task of eating the main reinforcements of the Tang Dynasty head-on, it is a matter of Da * Rui, who has always been careful to preserve his strength.

The commander of the Persian cavalry guards urged the soldiers to step up their offensive, and with a little more effort, they could calmly leave the battlefield before the Tang reinforcements arrived.

Now it's up to whom!

When the Persian general Abu saw the reinforcements arrive, he immediately dispelled the idea of fleeing for his life, although there were only one hundred and ten followers around him, but the psychological momentum of the dog fighting man could not be underestimated, and it seemed that there were not only one hundred and ten people around him, but thousands of people, and he turned around and rushed back to the west.

"After the war, you will be rewarded with beheading, and you will be killed with me!"

Abu has always been good at speculation and taking advantage of the situation, but now with the power of most of the Tang Dynasty's reinforcements, he asked himself if he could gamble, otherwise he would flee like this, and he would have no place in the Tang Dynasty army at all.
