The night was deep.

Starry.

Screams and shouts resounded across the field.

"Whew...... Whew......" Xu Huang breathed heavily behind the mask.

Although the mask can protect against the arrows, it also has a disadvantage, that is, it is very stuffy.

Coupled with the thick smell of blood around it, it seemed that all the gaps on the mask were blocked, and between breathing and breathing, it was like sucking in blood and spitting out blood plasma alive.

"More people...... A little more......" Xu Huang squinted, and the cold light on the sword and spear raised by the Qiang people shone in his pupils, like a little starlight in the sky.

"Buzz!"

Xu Huang silently took a step back, making a little space, and then took out the axe.

That terrifying axe almost squeezed and cut off the space in front of him, and the wind brought by the axe could crush the leather robes on the surrounding Qiang people!

"Kara!"

"Poof!"

The Qiang people in front of him were swept away in an instant!

However, there are more and more Qiang people, as if they have overturned the nest of Xuanxi, and they are pouring up densely.

Countless knives and guns, like flying sand and stones coming from the desert, couldn't be covered at all, so Xu Huang simply stopped blocking them, and let these sharp stones hit his body.

The sound of tooth aching rubbing sounded, and some of the outermost layers of iron armor had been deformed, and some had broken silk, swaying, and fluttering.

Ma Chao's shrill shout lingered in his ears, and the angry voice came from one side, and Xu Huang was unmoved.

If Ma Chao is a soft-footed shrimp, Xu Huang doesn't mind sending Ma Chao directly on the road with three or two clicks, but the problem is that Ma Chao is not.

Although killing Ma Chao will definitely deal a heavy blow to the Qiang people, Xu Huang knows that he can't do it.

Heavy armor strengthens defenses, but it also slows things down.

If Ma Chao retreats, it will be difficult for Xu Huang to wear a heavy armor and chase after him with a battle axe?

Ma Chaoren is powerful, and it is cost-effective to exchange his life for his life, so he can't wait to drag Xu Huang, on the contrary, although Xu Huang has heavy armor to protect himself, but after all, he is not as smart as Ma Chao, if he is dragged into a bitter battle, he will inevitably fall.

Therefore, they can only be isolated from Ma Chao and fight their own.

Ma Chao pierced a shield with one shot, killing Xu Huang's soldiers behind the shield, but more shield soldiers rushed up against Ma Chao layer upon layer, mixed with some pikemen, specifically from the gap in the shield Ma Chao, all of them were life-for-life tricks, and for a while Ma Chao was also trapped, unable to move, so he could only shout angrily at Xu Huang: "Gutless rats!" Come to war, come to war! ”

"Shameless thief! Shameless thief! Ma Chao yelled angrily, gritting his teeth and attacking Xu Huang's soldiers, and yelled, "You have to resist stubbornly, quickly tie your hands and arrest you, and spare your life!" ”

Xu Huang didn't say anything, just fought hard, axe by axe, just slashed at the Qiang people who came in. In front of Xu Huang, the Qiang people were cut down one by one as if they had been cut down by Zhuang He, but after all, there were a large number of Qiang people, although the Qiang people who faced Xu Huang were terrified, but there were still many Qiang people with unknown circumstances rushing forward.

Seeing that Xu Huang's soldiers fell, the front continued to shrink, and the Qiang people gradually gained the upper hand, Ma Chao couldn't hide his happiness, laughed, and his marksmanship became more and more powerful.

Today's victory is still his super!

"If you don't surrender, you die!" Ma Chao shouted a little proudly, "Press it down and kill them!" ”

Xu Huang silently took a step back again and took out the axe again, but this time, the axe was stuck in the waist of a Qiang man.

Xu Huang gritted his teeth, regardless of the protest of his sore arm, he once again struggled to pull out the battle axe in reverse, and then put the handle of the axe on his waist, and borrowed his strength to pull it out!

This will reduce the range of the attack, but it will save some effort.

Armor is made of iron, but men are not.

The further he goes, the faster the reduction of his strength becomes, and in order to stop Ma Chao, many sword and shield hands have been damaged, and there is no room for Xu Huang to recover his strength.

Xu Huang silently took a step back.

The night breeze blew from the Qingni River, carrying moist water vapor, blowing away the smell of blood on the mask, and also blowing Xu Huang's heart, which had already withdrawn from the water gate!

Thirty steps back, there is the Qingni River!

There is no way back!

Several Qiang people were dazed and rushed forward with swords and guns, and suddenly their eyes were empty, and there was no one in front of them!

These Qiang people looked at each other in a daze, and then turned their heads to look back, only to see that there was still a tragic battle behind them, the two sides were entangled in one place, and the sound of blade clashing and screaming was endless.

That's coming?

Several Qiang people were in disbelief.

"Young Commander! Few...... Uh......"

Before the Qiang man was waving his war knife at Ma Chao and shouting loudly to express his joy at running out of the array, he heard a terrifying scream from the air, and then an arrow flew in, piercing his back with a "poof" sound, piercing half a bloody arrow from his chest, strangling all his sound between his chest and abdomen, carrying his body and falling to the ground.

The Qiang people who rushed out of the Xu Huang array were horrified to find that they didn't know when, the archers who had evacuated to the opposite bank had already lined the shore, stood on the tidal flats, and even stood at the water's edge, listing a small "V" array, and the sharp arrows were shining with cold light!

Xu Yu stood on the shore, bent his bow and arrows, and soon shot several Qiang people who rushed out of the array one by one. Xu Yu pulled out an arrow with white tail feathers from the quiver on one side, and then bent his bow and shot at the water gate, shouting: "Water gate! Wind! Gale! ”

"Wind! Gale! ”

Across the Qingni River, the archers of the Shooting Battalion repeated in unison, bending their bows diagonally towards the junction of the Water Gate, towards the most congested place of the Qiang people in front of Xu Huang's army array, shooting a rain of covered arrows!

The snow-white tail feathers of the arrows cut a beautiful arc in the night sky, and they were followed by ordinary arrows with a motley tail feathers, screaming and swooping down!

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

The Qiang people who were crowded in one place were like cowhide water bladders filled with blood, pierced by arrows one after another, and a large area was suddenly shot down in the scream!

Ma Chaozheng assassinated a Xu Huang soldier, and was about to rush forward, but suddenly heard the sound of arrows whistling in the air, trembling all over, and immediately turned short, grabbed a shield in front of him, and leaned on the pillar at the water gate on the side. After all, the shadow of Ma Chao's encounter with the strong crossbow of Zhengxi has not been completely eliminated when he was in battle last time......

Arrows rained down, and the Qiang people who were crowded at the water gate were like grass, falling down in the rain of arrows one by one, and the Qiang people who came from behind couldn't see what was going on in front of them, but just blindly crowded forward, and when they found that something was wrong, a new round of arrow rain fell in the sky......

The Qiang people in the camp were immediately separated by the rain of arrows, and Ma Chao couldn't help but hesitate when he looked at the neatly aligned archers on the other side of the river.

Looking at Xu Huang's seductive figure in front of him, Ma Chao was a little moved, but once he rushed out, after all, the shield could only cover one side, what if these archers changed the direction of shooting and concentrated on shooting themselves?

Ma Chao hesitated for a moment, and then lost the best time.

"All! Retreat! Crossing! ”

Xu Huang shouted, and immediately swept away a quick space, and slowly retreated to the bank of the river, and some arrows fell from the sky on his armor, but they couldn't break the defense at all, either bounced to the side, or hung on the armor, adding a bit of power.

Killing some red-eyed Qiang people, watching Xu Huang retreat, braving the rain of arrows is biting Xu Huang is not letting go, chasing and slashing with his teeth and claws, if it weren't for Xu Huang's heavy armor, I'm afraid he would have been injured a lot at this time.

"Cover the captain!" Xu Yu shouted loudly, dropped his bow, drew his sword and rushed forward, with a few soldiers, stopped the chasing Qiang people, protected Xu Huang, and slowly retreated.

The boats on the shore were lined up one by one, and the retreating sword, shield, and spearmen hurriedly boarded the boats, and some even broke away from the battle suddenly, and when they came to the side of the boat in one breath, they were unable to climb, but fortunately, several soldiers on the side of the boat worked together to push them onto the boat......

Two hundred sword and shield men and one hundred and fifty pikemen, in the short period of time in the handover process, has now lost nearly half, if it weren't for these soldiers are either Xu Huang's personal guards, or the elite of the army, plus Xu Huang, as the commander of the Chinese army, insisted on being on the front line, I am afraid that the morale would have collapsed and collapsed.

Ma Chao saw Xu Huang retreating, jumped to his feet in a hurry, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, so he shouted: "Throw a gun!" Shoot him! Kill him! ”

Because I know that Xu Huang is heavily armored, because ordinary bows and arrows are not a big threat to Xu Huang, but if it is a throwing gun, it is different, even if the spear with full weight cannot completely break the defense, it is enough for Xu Huang to drink a pot!

Immediately, many Qiang people picked up the spears scattered on the ground and threw them at Xu Huang under the rain of arrows!

"Lieutenant be careful!"

Seeing that the situation was wrong, Xu Yu immediately took a step forward, blocked in front of Xu Huang, raised his war knife and smashed the two or three spears that came from the burst, but he was unable to smash the spears that followed, and was immediately pierced through the abdomen by a spear!

"Xu Yu!"

Seeing this, Xu Huang took off his mask and roared, his heart like a knife.

Xu Yu turned his head with difficulty, as if he wanted to take another look at Xu Huang, his head turned halfway, but he couldn't hold on anymore and fell to the ground.

“…… Oil! Raise the fire! Xu Huang boarded the boat, gritted his teeth and shouted, turning his head to look at Xu Yu's body on the shore, his eyes were a little blurred.

Taking advantage of the night, the rope of the simple trebuchet boom that had been erected on the shore long ago was cut off in Xu Huang's command, and the squeaky and crude boom, under the action of the counterweight, threw the clay pot into the air, crossed an arc, and smashed into the camp!

Grease splashes inside the crockpot!

Although it is not the kind of fierce fire oil that Zhengxi blended in the north, the general mixture of animal fat and pine oil is also a rather terrible combustible.

The sound of the crockpot bursting was like the grim smile of the Grim Reaper, which made Ma Chao's face turn pale with a brush!

"Be careful......

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a starry rocket, streaked across the night sky, like the stars in the sky falling, falling in the camp, falling on the splashes of grease!

At that moment, everything around seemed to be still for a moment, and then a trace of blue light suddenly appeared on the flowing grease, and in the next moment, the flames that suddenly burst out swallowed everything around them!

Inside the camp, the light is magnificent, reflecting half of the sky!

The firelight is like a blood lotus, blooming in the camp, blooming wantonly!

The wagons and wooden horses that remained in the camp were constant fuels, and once ignited, the flames would not stop dancing until they were burned to ashes. The insistence on the water gate, step by step, is to let more Qiang people rush into the camp, all for the fire in front of them!

Please put it in the urn and add another fire!

By the way, close the lid of the urn again......

It's a pity that Xu Yu ......

Xu Huang looked at the steaming flames, and suddenly remembered what Fei Qian, the general of the expedition to the west, had said before: "...... Today you won, but you also lost. When you lose, it's not because you lose to your opponent, but because you lose to yourself......"

In order to lure more Ma Chao's soldiers into the camp and achieve the goal of defeating Ma Chao's army in one fell swoop as much as possible, Xu Huang did not hesitate to use himself as bait, but Ma Chao was indeed lured close to the camp, but Xu Huang also lost a lot of money here, and accidentally lost his brother Xu Yu......

Is this account cost-effective or not?

"This time, the prince ......" Xu Huang looked at the water gate, looked at Ma Chao's figure in the flickering firelight, looked at Xu Yu's body lying on the shore, and muttered softly, "...... Did you win or lose......"

"No matter what, a certain person is going to Fu Bo Ma Clan, and today he will be on the bank of the Qingni River, under the waves!" Xu Huang gritted his teeth and said, and immediately shouted in a deep voice, "Bow and arrow block the water gate!" The rest of the people, etc., sweep the river with a certain person! No matter what you kill, you won't be surrendered! ”

The Qiang people, who were burned by the flames, rushed to the water gate with their heads crying and howling, trying to rush into the water to extinguish the flames contaminated with their bodies, but they were greeted not by life-saving rivers, but by deadly arrows!

One by one, clay pots filled with oil fell from the sky, continuously refueling the already burning campfire. The exploding grease made the Qiang soldiers in the camp have nowhere to hide, and if they are not careful, they will be contaminated with grease, and they will immediately catch fire!

One by one, the Qiang soldiers who braved the flames and struggled to pounce on the Qingni River, like the brightest target, across the Qingni River of forty or fifty, happened to be within the shooting range of the greatest lethality of the bow and arrow, no longer worrying about the archers who were injured by mistake, almost directly flat, sometimes rushing out of the Qiang people were shot by several archers together, and they were shot back into the camp.

With the flames of the camp soaring to the sky, the sky was red, and in the distance in the direction of the next debate, rows of torches were suddenly lit, and the stars seemed to stretch to the sky!

It's over, it's over!

Many Qiang people couldn't help but think the same thing......

The rumbling war drums shook the earth, shocked the hearts of the panicked Qiang soldiers, Ma Chao was trapped in the camp and life and death were uncertain, and the army from afar was so majestic, those who were still outside the camp were already tired for a day and did not get a good rest of the Qiang soldiers, suddenly at a loss, even more panicked, some rushed into the camp to rescue their compatriots, but more, but seeing that the situation was not right, a war horse fled in the direction without torches......
