Chapter 358: Yuan Tanjun is close to collapse

What's even more infuriating is that these unassuming routs. didn't stop at all, and the courage to reflexively kill the enemy made the scene extremely funny.

Jiang Yiqu was furious and shouted, "Are you all still men!" ”

Many of the routs still ignored it and continued to run away.

Jiang Yiqu sighed: "Sad! I don't want my Yuan Jun elite to be like a lost dog! Heavens, please look at me and help me! ”

After speaking, he led a hundred heavy cavalry of the personal guard, and reflexively charged to kill the pursuing group of Tuntian troops.

Those Yuan troops who fled did not know where they got the courage at this time, and most of them stopped in place to see how effective their generals were in counterattacking.

Jiang Yiqu and the others drove the tired war horses and slowly rushed towards the Tuntian army.

The terrain is slightly uphill, making them even slower,

The Tuntian army led and shouted, "Do you see it? The target is approaching us! ”

"Remember the essentials, they are not cavalry, they are just slow big targets! Look at my command banner in a moment, shoot the enemy horses in a volley, and then kill the enemy line! ”

"Roar!"

The archers of the Tuntian Army stopped, took a few breaths, pulled the bowstrings, arranged their swords and armor, and made their final preparations.

Seeing that the cavalry of the Yuan army was clustered and approaching a distance of seventy paces, the team still gritted their teeth and did not move.

The archers, knowing that it was not the best time, kept their bows open, staring intently at the unprotected horses.

The leader held the command banner high until the tired heavy cavalry slowly approached thirty paces uphill.

He suddenly threw the flag into the air, and the banner flashed in the afterglow of the crowd, and with a loud roar, the bowstrings rang out in unison, and fifty arrows sped out in unison.

The archers, as they were trained, took a second arrow and shot at the horses that had slipped through the net.

At what time, a large number of Yuan's slow cavalry overturned, and the men and horses in front hindered the cavalry in the rear, causing huge chaos.

Some of the wounded horses neighed, struggled, jumped and fell like crazy. More than a dozen riders were not only overturned, but also trampled and squeezed by the war horses, and the mountain road instantly turned into a purgatory of flesh and blood.

Some of the horses were wounded and frightened, and they turned and ran, and ran headlong into the horses behind, where they rushed left and right, exacerbating the people turning on their backs.

"Roar! Kill! ”

The team leader raised his saber high, took the lead, and rushed towards the Yuan army, who was ten steps away, stumbling and crawling.

The rest of the archers no longer had to use their arms to charge.

They were no match for the heavy cavalry, but only if the other side was still a heavy cavalry, not a cavalry that could not stand up if they fell.

Most of these heavy cavalrymen were wounded when they fell off their horses, and the people in the back row were unable to advance or retreat because of their limited vision and obstruction of the road. In a stationary state, besieged by infantry.

The archers of the Tuntian Army also have a set of two-gear armor per person, and they usually have melee training.

Now, they pierced their swords with precision beyond the enemy's armor protection zone, and the narrow mountain path put the enemy in front of them one by one, and let them slash them one by one.

Dozens of Yuan Jun's people were easily killed, trampled down, and devoured by the chaos.

In only half a pillar of incense, more than a dozen Yuan cavalry behind saw that there was no hope of reinforcements and immediately fled.

They were followed by the Yuan infantry who were watching from a direct distance, and these people did not dare to stop any longer, and fled as if flying.

Jiang Yiqu was not among those who fled. No one knows if he was shot, or if he was thrown to death, trampled to death, or beheaded.

After the wounded team counted the losses and arranged for someone to take care of the wounded soldiers, they arranged for their men to clean up the corpses and trophies.

Eventually, Jiang Yiqu's body was stripped of its armor and identified by its captives and clothing. His leg had been broken, and he had sword wounds on his abdomen and neck, apparently from a fall that he had been killed by a fight.

The soldier who killed him was also found, and it turned out to be Wang Ke, who was no more ordinary than a Tuntian soldier.

The war is so cruel, the sword is even more ruthless without eyes, and Jiang Yiqu died here like this.

The fall of night intensified the chaos of the rout of Yuan's army, and even the defeated army impulsively attacked Yuan Tan's camp.

Yuan Tan and Guo Tu still had the right judgment at this time, and they decisively formed a firing squad to stop and kill the routs who dared to attack the army.

They brutally offered to kill a deserter and give five stones of grain and grass as an incentive. As a result, it was estimated that the cost of three or four thousand stone of grain would be paid for the time of one stick of incense, and the rout army was successfully dispersed.

This night, the battle finally stopped amid the smell of blood and screams and wails. I don't know if the next day will be completely annihilated, or if a miracle will be born.

Late at night, the various units of the Xinxi Liang Army were resting quietly, preparing to completely solve Yuan Tan tomorrow.

Tong Yuan lit torches at night and patrolled the camp.

Some soldiers had to patrol in the cold wind because of the vigil, and some secret posts worked even harder, and they had to squat in a certain place, shivering from the cold and unable to bake the fire.

As for the scouts, it is also even harder, this kind of cold night always has to ambush and investigate, even if there is a standard coat and fur of the New Western Liang Army, it can't stop the heart-piercing cold in the middle of the winter night.

Only a fiery heart can resist the evil cold, so that the soldiers are meticulous, and no matter how cold and tired they are, they must force the enemy to cross first.

Tong Yuan gave them cordial encouragement when he saw the soldiers. When the soldiers saw that the lord was patrolling late at night, they felt the warmth of home in their hearts.

It's really a home, there is no lord where to come from such a tuntian, without such a tuntian, of course there will be no home.

Although many of them are Tuntian soldiers who have not been out of production, and their combat effectiveness and status are indeed lower than those of the dreadnought, who can say that they are not the beneficiaries and masters of this force?

The scouts of the Xinxi Liang Army also showed their enthusiasm in actual actions.

With the help of the local Black Mountain Army, they had a clear understanding of the terrain, and they actively ran out and took advantage of everything.

In the Taihang Mountains, sometimes the Yuan army watched them approach to two hundred paces and wantonly probed the layout of the Yuan army's position. But if you want to pursue, because of the ravines and ravines and winding mountain roads, it will take half an hour to get there.

At night it is even more one-sided. At this time, it was already winter, and the temperature difference between day and night in the mountainous area was extremely large, and Yuan Jun could not see it at night, so he was completely passively beaten.

And the scouts of the Xinxi Liang Army, who had excellent winter clothes and were active in combat, always probed and attacked at night, so that Yuan Jun was used to reducing dozens of people every night.

To make matters worse, Yuan Jun had a tendency to collapse just by enduring the cold winter after losing his baggage.

More than 10,000 people under Yuan Tan's department camped outside the city, sitting south and facing north, facing the northwest wind. Even half of the soldiers who had winter clothes in their tents were shivering in the long night.

Fighting a war was too much for them. If you win, the generals have merit, but it is better for the related households to have capture, and the county soldiers have nothing.

Not to mention losing the battle, some fellow villagers and neighbors didn't know what was going on, so they were treated as outcasts, and they were in a different place in an instant.

Will tomorrow be a battle or a surrender? Half of Yuan Jun was thinking about this.
