363. Gear up and urge the horse, and beat him to his stomach
The sky is cloudy, the smoke of gunpowder in a small town on the border of Wusu is still filling, the fog has not dissipated, a few women and children can be heard crying from time to time, some of the strong men in the town spontaneously formed a militia to resist the big cannibals with the Jokhang army, and there was no news as soon as they went, and some dragged their families to flee in the direction of the capital, but died in the war.
Feng Zhao's army set up camp in this town, first, to protect the people of Wusu, and second, to quickly learn the news of Dashi.
I heard that civil strife has started within the Great Eclipse recently, not long ago, people who don't believe in the gods spontaneously formed a team to drive out the Holy Maiden faction led by Caroqi, although they don't believe in the gods, but they didn't feel disgusted when they knew the existence of the Holy Maiden, until Sinsa announced that the Holy Maiden said that this time period was suitable for declaring war on Feng Zhao, and those who hated war rose up.
I thought that the Great Food Civil Strife, Caroqi had no mind to put it on Wusu's side, but he didn't want Xinsa to seem to have a very good means to deal with them, I don't know what to say in front of those people, and the people who had never even seen the face of the saint put down the weapons in their hands and decided whether they won or lost and did not get involved in this matter.
On the steps of the altar, Bei Luo closed her eyes and meditated in the center, the sun and moon-like patterns carved in white jade bloomed under her, and a few red lights lit up around her from time to time.
Sinsa under the steps, with one hand on his cane, squinted at her, "My Holy Maiden, it is a critical moment in the battle between Da Shi and Feng Zhao, and neither God nor I want you to disappear again, do you understand?"
"That's why you're imprisoning me here?" Bei Luo still closed her eyes and put her hands on her knees, feeling a strange force pouring into her body, and for a long time, her forehead slowly showed a golden pattern like a flower.
Sinsa moved his shoulders and smiled slightly, "How dare I do such a thing, the gods will punish me." ”
"Even if the gods don't punish you and provoke a war between the two countries without permission, you will not end well after all. Feeling a pinprick pain in her forehead, she couldn't help but ooze a thin layer of fine sweat, but Bei Luo still gritted her teeth and insisted.
At that time, when she first arrived at Dashi, a wind and sand almost buried her, and when she woke up again, she had completely forgotten the past, and it was this person who said in surprise in front of her: "Holy daughter of my country, welcome back." ”
He said that she was the holy daughter of the Great Food, and that she was living among the people, and now that she could be found by him, it was a gift from the gods, and the Great Food would surely usher in the most prosperous era. So, without saying anything to himself, Sinsa performed some mysterious ritual in front of those who believed in the gods, like a great god, and the arrow on the stone pointed to the east, saying that the east would be subject to the great food.
And Feng Zhao is in the east.
Since she met the Central Plains man, she felt that her memory was slowly regressing, although she still couldn't remember the memories of the past, but she was sure that part of what Xinsa said was false, and she was like those who didn't believe in gods, she didn't want to see the war happen, and wanted to persuade Xinsa, but she didn't want him to go his own way, so she simply listened to her own persuasion.
Beiluo, who couldn't bear it, wanted to explain it to those who had been deceived, but she didn't expect Sinsa to trap herself in the altar and couldn't move.
A ruthless color flashed in Xinsa's eyes, and after thinking for a while, she still didn't refute her, turned around, her robe dragged to the ground, and slowly walked away along the steps: "Holy daughter, you still care about yourself." ”
Before the words fell, Beiluo, who was sitting in the center of the altar, could no longer support it and fainted on the ground.
At the foot of the steps, the fire disciples stood in two rows, and Xin Sa turned his head to the nearest fire disciple standing and said, "Chuan Xin and General Caroqi, the holy woman has a word, attack Wusu tonight, this battle will be won." ”
*
The twilight is like an invisible net covering the land of Wusu, the sunset dyes the whole sky red, the flags are waving in the air, and the faces of the people who have not yet been extinguished are scorched.
When the stars hung in the sky, the soldiers guarding the fence could not help but yawn, but they did not dare to relax at all, and after wiping away the tears left by yawning, they shook their heads, and carefully observed the movements around them with wide eyes.
The breeze blew some of the withered yellow grass, and the soldier who couldn't support it finally waited for the person who came to replace him, waved his hand and turned around to rest, and at this moment, a feather arrow slashed through the sky, with a little red light, and seemed to leave a long mark in the dim sky, and the complete canopy was divided into two halves by the feathered arrow.
The soldier who looked up and stared at the feather arrow hurriedly took two steps back, and before he could react and report it to Yun Ciyang in the camp tent, then the dense feather arrows shot towards the camp tent like raindrops, and the soldiers guarding the periphery hurriedly raised their guns to resist, while informing the people beside him: "Quick, go and inform the young general!"
The sparks carried by the feather arrows jumped in the dry grass, and soon spread to all directions, burning into a sea of fire like fireflies, and the soldiers who rushed to the inside of the barracks had not yet shouted the word "report", but the curtain of the camp tent had already been lifted, led by Yun Ciyang, and the people behind were wearing red armor, as if they had already known about tonight's battle, and walked out with their guns.
Standing on top of the towering mound, the horse beside Yun Juncheng snorted and neighed, the husky with a pheasant tail feather tied to his head looked up to the sky and roared, and the spear in his hand was placed on the ground by him, Yun Ciyang said loudly: "Zhao's sons, in the past, the country gave you well-being, and now, the country needs you to protect her health, the Great Food Army is approaching, the reinforcements have not arrived, we must not retreat on the battlefield, do not fight to the last moment, never give up!"
"Never give up!" shouted the soldiers standing below, their voices like a storm blowing through a wheat field, striking waves of wheat.
"Gear up and urge the horse, with the spear in your hand, protect my Dazhao and be healthy!" Yun Juncheng tightened the reins, flew on the horse, the horse's hooves rolled up dust, and the lieutenant generals beside him also got on their horses and attacked in the direction of Da Shi.
With Caroqi's temperament, it is not surprising that he chose to sneak attack them at night, on the contrary, if they fight in the morning, it will make Yun Ciyang feel that there is a problem.
A loud horn sounded on the city wall, and then, the drums shook the sky, the sound of fighting, and the sound of horses' hooves all came out in unison, but I saw that the Jokhang army in military uniforms moved quickly towards Da Shi like a vermilion banner, and the big cannibals in blue clothes over there were not used to fighting immediately, not to mention, Da Shi did not have many horses, and the riding tool was camels.
Camels, on the other hand, are their main means of transportation and cannot be used for warfare. As a result, the movement speed is much slower.
However, fighting immediately also has the disadvantage of fighting immediately, rushing to the front of the cannibal body lowered, sideways deliberately stuck in the place where the Jokhang soldiers could not see, and then stabbed the horse's leg with the scimitar in his hand, which could easily cause the soldiers on the horse to roll to the ground.
