Chapter 359: The sky is getting brighter

Between the lightning and flint, Utopon, fell to the ground unconscious.

Li De's men and horses immediately continued to charge forward, and the Turkic soldiers chasing behind learned that their general had been killed, and they had no intention of fighting.

Coupled with their physical condition, it was difficult to support, and the pursuit was not fierce.

When the heavily armored tiger guards returned to Shakou Pass on both sides, the heavy armor was covered with scratches, and the horses had multiple knife wounds on their bodies, and they were able to keep coming back, thanks to the armor on the horses.

"The enemy's main commander is killed, and it is necessary to prevent them from retaliating against him."

Li De ordered that several lieutenants around him should respond and immediately bring them all back to their respective defensive positions and wait for the arrival of the enemy.

In the Turkic camp, there was chaos at this time, the general Utomon was killed, and the remaining commanders were a little overwhelmed, but the panic was only temporary.

If they don't get anything out of this sortie, it will be difficult to explain to the general of the deacon, and they can't just retreat, they must destroy the enemy.

So their remaining commanders reorganized their soldiers and led their men and horses to go out at night, and there were dismount pits outside the stone mountains outside Shakou Pass.

Due to the problem of time, they did not use much thought, mainly digging a lot of pits, so that the Turkic cavalry would not easily charge before they came close, otherwise it would be easy to mix the horse's legs.

"Governor, the enemy is coming."

"Prepare for battle!"

The Turkic soldiers and horses had just arrived, and they did not notice that there was a trap at night when the night was dark and windy, and when they were charged down, they were thrown down one after another, and after falling to the ground, they would be attacked by archers.

"Charge the whole army!" A few thousand-commanders, now at all costs.

More than 20,000 people were imposing, and they seemed to have forgotten that eighty percent of them were not in good shape, but after the battle order, they would definitely not be able to leave their horses even if they had a stomach.

Not to mention how heavy it tastes.

No one will pay attention to this at the moment, they want to avenge the general.

"Charge, attack!"

When the Turkic cavalry approached, they found that they could no longer charge, and the horses were reluctant to go forward, and they all needed to be forcibly pulled.

Whoosh!

They entered the range of the bow and arrow, and the archers of the vanguard had already practiced it, and they were familiar with the effects of the bow and arrow.

In this way, the accuracy of the head was improved a lot, and when the rain of arrows came, the Turkic soldiers really panicked.

The night was too dark for them to judge the direction of the arrows.

Instinctive retaliation, there is no need to talk about hitting without a target.

Li Dejia picked up the bow and arrow, the arrow hit, the vanguard was rehearsed, and they chose the target with their memory in the invisible night, and the arrows rained down, and they didn't have to think about whether they would hit or not.

And Li De relies on his golden fingers, not only can he see everyone on the other side clearly at the visual distance, but his eyesight at night has long exceeded ordinary people.

Whoosh!

Three arrows in a row, all of them hit the opponent's centurion, and then he didn't stop, the arrows flew fast, and more than a dozen centurions were already hit in a few breaths.

The Turks seemed to be in a hurry, and after suffering a loss, they built a fire directly in the distance and ordered the people in front to retreat.

The fire was so bright that for a moment the heads of people could be faintly seen shaking on the stone mountain, but because the fire was too far away and not too clear, for the archers, they didn't have to think about it at all.

Then the Turks began to attack in a parabolic way, but it seems that this method of warfare is somewhat difficult for them, and the application effect is not very good.

"Shield!"

The vanguard had already been prepared, and the big shields and small shields were all propped up, and the extra armor came in handy at this time.

Li De's carriage was tightly wrapped in armor all around, and even then dozens of bows and arrows could be seen firmly staring at the carriage.

Li De continued, the arrows kept devouring the enemy's life, centurion, captain, his target was the enemy's leader, if it weren't for the distance of the commander beyond the range of the bow and arrow, maybe the battle would have been over long ago.

None of the archers of the vanguard stopped, and after the archers of the opposing side stopped, they began to attack in an orderly manner.

When the Turkic leaders saw that the results were not very good, they directly asked them to retreat, dodging the range of the opponent's bows and arrows.

Several commanders saw that there were more than 1,000 casualties in the attack just now, and now they were all fighting for their tribes, and although the people of the original Utomont tribe had lost their main general, they did not become pioneers.

It's not that they don't want to, but because the Lord General has been killed, and they have to go back to their tribes and wait for a new general to lead them into battle.

Several commanders personally gave the order to attack, and naturally it was their men who acted as the vanguard, because the credit was already theirs, if defeated.

This is where the hidden dangers of the tribal faction lie, plus being drugged, the combat effectiveness of 10,000 people is really not as good as before, and it is even more passive at this time.

At this time, when the Turks were struggling to make a choice, they suddenly saw a man in the darkness in the distance beating a horse, and the fire shone on the other side, and then saw the other party shoot a bow and arrow.

After the Turkic archers attacked, they shot at the same time, and an arrow directly hit the arm of a commander, and all the guards who followed them were shocked, and immediately protected their general in the crowd.

Li De returned from his horse, dodged the enemy's arrows again, lay on his back on his horse, and fired his bow with three arrows.

The arrow broke through the air, and in an instant, the three centurions next to the commander who were hit by the arrow were hit.

"Retreat!"

When Li De returned, he saw that the Turks had retreated.

"Governor, good archery!" Situ En praised.

"Well, it's just to scare them." Li De said lightly.

Li De displayed his superior martial arts, and at this time he was like a hero in the hearts of several lieutenants and vanguards, and he was able to hit the enemy at such a distance that they simply couldn't do it.

"Dudu, the enemy is defeated, why don't we pursue and strive for the greatest results." Situ En reminded.

Li De knew what he meant, and although their rods were quite successful, and there were even more unexpected accidents, they had nothing to gain and did not get the enemy's supplies.

"Poor Kou Mo chase, not to mention that they use too many troops, let's pursue, the other party may turn around and charge to the death, it is impossible to get out when the time comes, we can't risk the lives of the soldiers, now what we have to do is to hold the advantage and wait for the news of He Bida and Shi Huaiyi." Li Dedao.

"Yes."

Situ En's heart was hot, thinking about it, they couldn't pursue, they knew their own details, the enemy temporarily retreated, but I don't know if they would wait for the day to attack.

"Count the number of casualties, count the number of arrows." Situ En's side also got busy, and he also sent people out to replenish swords and collect arrows for the enemy on the battlefield, and quickly cleaned up the battlefield.

The busy sky is getting brighter.
