In war, the advantage of having a large number of people is that you can carry out crowd tactics to continuously attack and defeat the enemy! Just like the all-army attack launched by Gao Changgong just now, Qi soldiers continued to rush over, so that the artillery battalion had no time to open fire, resulting in almost being broken through the defense line, if Xiao Yao hadn't arrived in time to break through the encirclement, so that the artillery battalion could break through, I am afraid that the entire artillery battalion would have been completely annihilated by Gao Changgong!

But there are also the disadvantages of a large number of people, that is, the command is a bit chaotic, and the information transmission is too slow, and the friendly forces and friendly forces are fighting separately and not cooperating with each other! From Xiao Yao's sudden attack to the successful breakthrough of the artillery battalion, less than half a time before and after, Xiao Yao killed a gap from the flank and repelled the Qi soldiers in charge of this area, but the Qi soldiers in charge of other areas still continued to charge forward, densely packed with people, so that Gao Changgong couldn't find that the encirclement was opened a gap for a while, when Gao Changgong reacted and immediately mobilized troops and horses to chase Xiao Yao and them, it was already a matter of time, at this time, even the musket battalion in charge of the broken rear had already thrown off the entanglement of Qi soldiers, evacuated from the battlefield!

"Rubbish, you're just a bunch of shit! More than 9,000 cavalry troops couldn't stop the artillery battalion that had already been killed by us! And Xiao Yao! Didn't you ambush Xiao Yao on the other side of the valley? Why did he suddenly appear here, and tear a hole in our encirclement, so that all the artillery battalions rushed out of the encirclement! Where is your ruler? Tell him to come and confess! Gao Changgong asked angrily.

"Lord, the ruler has already been martyred! At that time, the commander led us to pursue Xiao Yao, and when he ran all the way here, he found that there was a big melee here, but Xiao Yao suddenly turned around with his men and horses, charged back at us, and suddenly moved those artillery pieces to the front to bombard us. We didn't know at the time that the artillery battalion had been defeated by the prince, and we thought they were Xiao Yao's reinforcements, and we saw that they were pushing more than a dozen artillery pieces to open the way in front, so we dodged in all directions, and as a result, they rushed over. The deputy commander of the cavalry explained.

Gao Changgong heard that the cavalry commander had been martyred, and he didn't know anything for a while, because the situation came too suddenly, and Xiao Yao suddenly appeared here with a musket battalion, which he didn't expect!

Xiao Yao suddenly killed from the flank, making these attacked Qi soldiers think that they were reinforcements from the artillery battalion, and everyone was in a mess at that time, and they couldn't see how many men and horses Xiao Yao had brought, only to see that the cavalry behind Xiao Yao was all murderous, and they were using those muskets that killed Rao in the air, and they were immediately frightened and hurriedly retreated, allowing the artillery battalion to catch the gap and take the opportunity to break out of the encirclement! Even the musket battalion in charge of the broken rear raised their muskets to frighten them, so that they did not dare to pursue forward, and finally fled the battlefield easily!

And the cavalry team that had been chasing Xiao Yao behind didn't know that the artillery battalion here was about to be wiped out by Gao Changgong's regiment, only to see Xiao Yao, who had been running away, suddenly led a group of soldiers and horses to suddenly charge towards him, thinking that they were Xiao Yao's reinforcements! And they used artillery that made the Qi army frightened, and even killed their own commander on the spot, where was the mind and morale to fight with it, everyone was immediately frightened and fled in all directions, leaving a passage for Xiao Yao to rush over with them.

That's it, both troops were concentrating on dealing with their opponents, but because the opponents suddenly met, and then they didn't know the specific situation, Xiao Yao took advantage of a loophole, and let him take everyone to rush out of this encirclement battle carefully planned and carefully arranged by Gao Changgong!

"Then why did Xiao Yao suddenly appear here? They didn't go into the valley? He's not going to save his stepfather, Xiao Moke? Annoyed Gao Changgong asked.

"We have already laid an ambush in the valley, but this Xiao Yao is too cunning, he only sent a team of people into the valley, and threw some iron balls that will suddenly explode at us, and as a result, we were exposed! Because they were using those aerial muskets, we couldn't attack forward, but they didn't dare to rush into the valley either, and then we confronted each other at the mouth of the valley! Later, Xiao Yao suddenly fled with the whole army, so the commander chased us out, and then saw Xiao Yao and their troops, and some of the men and horses bypassed us and returned to the valley, which should have been to save Xiao Moke, and Xiao Yao continued to flee forward with this cavalry, so we have been chasing after them, and finally we were brought here by him! The deputy commander gave a rough overview of the matter.

"It seems that this Xiao Yao still cares about his father-in-law, and he actually used himself as bait to lure you out and let others save Xiao Moke! is so brave and resourceful, and attaches great importance to love and righteousness, I really admire him! If it weren't for the fact that we were each our own masters and enemies, I would have loved him! It's a pity, this time I will kill him at all costs, and get rid of a big trouble for us! Gao Changgong said with a little regret.

"Pass our order, immediately gather the troops, regroup, and go all out to hunt down Xiao Yao and them!" Gao Changgong ordered loudly, and then pointed to the deputy commander of the cavalry team and said: "You are now the commander of the cavalry team, I will send you as the vanguard to immediately pursue Xiao Yao, he is still with the remnants of the artillery battalion, the speed is not fast, before sunset, you must catch up with Xiao Yao, even if you can't win them, you have to drag them down, I will arrive soon with the main force to reinforce you!" ”

Seeing that the god of war in his heart still trusted him and promoted himself to commander, the deputy commander immediately said excitedly: "My subordinates obeyed the order, and immediately led the troops to continue to pursue Xiao Yao and ensure that the task was completed!" This time, even if they attack us with a hundred cannons, we will never back down a step and swear to take Xiao Yao's head down! ”

。。。。。。

Xiao Yao took the artillery battalion that successfully broke through, and ran wildly for more than ten miles all the way, and the speed had already slowed down! Because there are more than 2,000 officers and men in the artillery battalion, except for those pack horses used to haul artillery and ammunition materials, only a few officers are equipped with war horses, and most of the others are infantrymen, so now they are fleeing for their lives, and both legs are about to break, and they can no longer run after only running for more than ten miles.

The musket battalion in charge of the broken rear has also caught up, so Xiao Yao took these two battalions, less than 3,000 Rao soldiers, and continued to run forward to Linying County, as long as he joined Huang Wenyuan and Xiao Moke's men and horses in Linying County, the strength would be greatly increased, then there was no need to be afraid of the pursuit of Gao Changgong's 30,000 army, even if he couldn't win at that time, he could support Wu Mingche to send reinforcements to come!

Looking at the soldiers of the artillery battalion behind him who were running so much that they couldn't lift their feet and were full of fatigue, Li Nong, who looked worried, persuaded Xiao Yao: "Commander, the soldiers can't run, you don't have to worry about us, before the enemy catches up, you can run away!" ”

Just now, when Xiao Yao led the soldiers of the firearms battalion suddenly appeared, he was indeed very excited and moved, thinking that the commander was really clever, knowing that his artillery battalion was in trouble, he rushed back to the rescue! But now he found out that Xiao Yao was also in trouble, and was chased by 10,000 cavalry, which made him feel that the situation was really dangerous this time, so he wanted Xiao Yao to escape first!

"What are you talking about! Since you call me Commander, it's my duty to get you out alive! You let me leave you alone and run away first, am I such a selfish and heartless person? And this time it is a well-planned trap of Gao Changgong, and now we are not out of danger, maybe there will be ambushes somewhere, hurry, keep running! Xiao Yao refused.

"That's right, commander, you have to go first, the enemy will definitely catch up, it is impossible for us infantry to outrun the cavalry of the Qi army, why don't I take them to take charge of the rear and buy time for you!" Li Nong continued to persuade.

"Stop talking nonsense! If you still have the strength, you might as well run two more steps! Xiao Yao stopped Li Nong from going down, and then shouted at the tired soldiers behind him: "Now you know why I usually train you to run long distances!" Now we have only run more than ten miles, which is not half of our usual training! Quick, run! As long as everyone survives this hurdle, we will go back and settle accounts with Gao Changgong! Torture them to death in every way! ”

At this time, there was a sudden sound of hurried horses' hooves behind Xiao Yao, and then I saw that the road was already full of dust and smoke, and the cavalry of the Qi army had caught up, or the cavalry team that chased and killed Xiao Yao!
