One by one, the front door is broken!

When this terrible howl of despair came, it was the time for the army to eat supper at the end of the month, and the camp was full of smoke, and the insolence of the desert rose and spread around the great meadow, drifting and sinking with the wind. Six stoves were also poked in the middle of the temporary assembly point, and large iron pots were set up to cook soup. The white steam in the iron pot was churning, the brown pickles, the black meat and the dried green wild vegetables were mixed in a pot and boiled, and the soldiers and civilians took the soup and vegetables as a unit, and sat silently around the meeting points at the east and west ends to eat and drink, and suddenly heard the news, and they all looked at others with a confused and stupid face. In an instant, they all jumped up in shock, threw the bowl and went to the knife and gun next to it.

Shang Chengzheng was talking to Sun Zhongshan and Qian Laosan, who knew that the words had just begun, and they heard this earth-shattering scream. For a moment, he was in a trance with the soup bowl, and there were tens of thousands of soldiers tied to this camp, how could he say that it would be broken? Even if the grain depot is burned down, the army's morale is fluctuating, and the army is surrounded on three sides, and the army is killed, it is impossible to hold out for even a day, right? He took a deep breath and tried to stabilize his mind, and he heard the thunderous sound of horses' hooves rolling in the front camp behind the meadow, and even the screams of the weapons colliding with each other were mixed one after another, and the war drums urging the battle could not distinguish the nodes, and the horns of assembly and deployment were not in order. In the blink of an eye, the west side was also full of murderous sounds...... His heart was tightly knit one by one, no matter what happened to the front camp and how it was attacked by the Tuqi people, the front camp was lost, and the big camp was broken, and there was no doubt that the front camp was broken!

Sun Zhongshan Qian Laosan and the others had already finished their armor belts and leggings, and looked at Shang Cheng with a dignified expression, waiting for him to give an order. Deputy Lieutenant Zhu Daichun looked flustered, and muttered in circles: "What should I do?" What can I do? ”

Shang Cheng stared at his deputy: "What are you panicking about!" He threw away the soup bowl in his hand, stood up and ordered: "All sentinels, whole the line!" Check out the gear! Wait for the order! ”

"Yes!" Several sentinels were given the order to go.

By this time, there was a mess in the back camp. There are many people who are responsible for transporting heavy baggage here, most of them have not been on the battlefield with real swords and guns, and the news of the broken camp has exploded the camp in an instant, some people have drilled into the camp tent when they see it, some people are crying on the ground and howling, some people are running around like flies without a head, some people are running aimlessly behind others, and some people seem to be looking for something to take advantage of to defend themselves. Shang Cheng's soldiers were also chaotic for a while, and they were barely restrained by the officers' shouting orders, but at this time, they were rushed by the chaotic people, and they followed the chaos, and many soldiers involuntarily got into the fleeing team. The scolding and scolding of several team officers and sentry commanders did not work at all, and even a few deserters and civilians could not be suppressed.

Shang Cheng was also extremely nervous. He stood in front of the team and looked around, only to see soldiers and civilians scurrying everywhere, but he could not see the military flag with a single command, and he wanted to listen to the horn order of the regrouping of the army. The defeat is like a mountain, the army is already in chaos, at this time it is useless to say anything, the first thing is to find a favorable terrain to stabilize the team, and then talk about other ......

He stared at the watchtower at the top of the meadow, and without looking back, he asked, "What time is it?" ”

Bao Kan looked at the sunset dragging the red glow and said, "It's past the end of the day." ”

Shang Cheng pointed to the watchtower and said, "Let's go there!" ”

When they rushed to the top of the meadow against the crowd of routs, Shang Cheng clutched his straight knife and only had time to shout, "Formation!" A group of horses from the opposite side collided......

The camp was already on fire everywhere, and smoke was rising from all sides. Dozens and hundreds of cavalry of the Turks roamed the camp, cutting down and burning the tents when they saw people, and trampling wildly and wantonly. The Great Zhao soldiers had no orders and could not rely on each other to support each other, so they could only fight separately in the east and west, and when they were rushed by the enemy's horsemen, they fell like cutting wheat, with broken arms and legs, and flesh and blood flying sideways, and their heads and stumps kicked by human legs and horses' hooves rolled all over the ground. There are also Zhao soldiers who are not afraid of death and rush up against the cavalry, dragging the enemy off the horse even if they don't want to fight for their lives, holding the enemy and rolling down the horse's hooves without weapons, even if they die, they have to drag the legs of the horse and the legs without letting go......

The meadow roof is surrounded by a watchtower, and people have been killed on their backs. More than 200 Zhao soldiers formed a double-layer circle formation centered on the wooden building, and fought the enemy in a circle. The outer layer is covered with shields and spears and straight knives, and the enemy raises his shield when he shoots with arrows, and if he dares to approach, he will be slashed with a knife and a spear, and if he is wounded, he will retreat into the inner circle, and someone inside will naturally stand up to pick him up. More than a dozen archers had climbed to the top of the watchtower, and their bows and crossbows were aimed at the enemies who were spinning in all directions.

The cavalry didn't get any advantage after fighting for a long time, and several cluster charges didn't tear up the formation of Zhao Bing, but they killed and injured twenty or thirty people, so they knew that this bone was not easy to gnaw, and they all turned their horses and withdrew with a whistle.

As soon as this group of enemies retreated, before the Zhao army had time to breathe, another group of cavalry climbed up from the east with the rout, and Zhu Daichun, who was in front of the formation, had time to shout, "Go around the rear of the formation!" With a muffled snort, he threw away the spear in his hand and knelt down. The soldiers in the inner circle immediately dragged him into the circle by the legs, and one of the soldiers picked up the iron spear and took his place...... This group of enemies came and went quickly, and rushed back and forth twice to see if they could not rush, and the leading officer swung his scimitar, and a group of soldiers turned down with a scream.

From the beginning of the hour until the sun set, the sky was dark, and the battle around the building almost never stopped. Sometimes a group of cavalry came up to harass and probe it, sometimes a group of enemy infantry came over to ping-pong and fight twice, and sometimes two or three groups of Turks came over at the same time to do it together, and several times the situation was extremely critical, and the battle was broken and killed only in an instant. Fortunately, there are more and more Zhao soldiers gathered here, and there is no need for officers to issue orders at the moment of life and death, and they pick up the bows, arrows, knives and guns on the ground to make up for the gap. By the time it was dark, there were already a lot of people around the watchtower, some of them were Zhao Bing and some of them were of Tu Duci, some were hacked to death by the enemy, some were "helped" by their own people who couldn't bear to see them suffer, some were all corpses, some were missing arms and legs, and half of their bodies were trampled by horses' hooves and their flesh and blood were blurred, all like wheat falling in a field with a strong wind in summer. Several horses staggered in the pile of dead men, their cold noses stretched out to wake their masters......

Seeing that there were no longer a large number of enemies near the meadow, and occasionally someone showed their heads in the distance, and they also looked around a few times and turned their heads away, Shang Cheng knew that the current catastrophe was temporarily over. As soon as my heart was relieved, and as soon as the breath I held in my chest was released, I felt that my whole body was so sore that my two arms were as heavy as lead, and I could no longer lift the heavy straight knife in my hand. He slowly sat down on the ground with the shaft of his sword, his mouth wide open and gasping for breath. There was a clattering sound of weapons falling to the ground all around, and there was heavy panting everywhere.

He took a few breaths, felt that the person had eased up a little, and his arms were not so trembling, so he looked to the left and right. I don't know when, the people who covered him left and right have been replaced by Suza and Tian Xiaowu. Both of them were covered in blood, and the bladed iron knives pressed against the inverted shields, and they sat on their legs in the barley and gasped.

Shang Cheng grabbed a handful of his sticky face, rubbed the grass with his hand, and asked Tian Xiaowu with a raised chin: "Are you hurt?" ”

Tian Xiaowu wanted to speak, but he couldn't speak, and it took a long time to swallow his saliva and shake his head.

Shang Cheng turned his face and asked Suza again: "What about you?" Is it hurt? ”

Suza was pulling the collar to wipe his eyes, listening to his question, his hands were on the ground and he probably wanted to stand up, but he really didn't have the strength, he smacked his chapped lips and said loudly: "I'm not hurt!" After a pause, he seemed to remember something, and added, "Tell your lord!" ”

Shang Cheng was amused by the sentence he made up, gently patted Su Za's broad shoulder, and said with a sigh: "How many have you killed?" ”

"Two!" Suza's eyes were smiling. "Tell your lordship!"

Shang Cheng thought for a moment and asked, "You already have two merits in front of you, right?" ”

"Yes. Greetings to your lordship! ”

"Keep it up! Kill one more enemy and you'll be a righteous warrior! ”

Su Zha said with a bitter face: "I don't have a head, and I don't know if I can remember it." "He is a foreigner, and no matter what he does, he will suffer, especially when he records merit and evaluates merit, he needs three heads to be worth one of others. If it weren't for this, he would have cut down seven enemies in the first few battles fought by the grain team, and he would have been promoted to loyal and brave man a long time ago.

Shang Cheng knew about this. There are a lot of things like Suza in the border army, and Suza is not the only special case in his team, the old Yazi who died in Mogan in front is the same situation, in terms of seniority and merit, the old Yazi's official will not be smaller than Baokan, and after the battle, his family should receive the pension of the eight-rank officer, but because he is a naturalized border soldier, he can only receive the money of the small soldier when he dies...... But this is the usual practice in Zhao Junzhong, and he can't do anything about it. He said to Suza, "I will write down your affairs in a report and hand it in, and I will always give you an explanation." It's okay if you don't have a head this time, I'll give you circumstantial evidence. Turning his head to Tian Xiaowu, who didn't look very good, he said, "The credit for your tainted work last year, I also let the documents be listed in the official document when the army was sent out in April, and I heard that I will soon have eyebrows." But don't tell anyone about it just yet. ”

Tian Xiaowu hurriedly didn't react to what Shang Cheng said, he only blinked and stared at him, and it took a long time before he nodded vigorously: "I know." I'm sorry for you, Brother Monk. ”

Shang Cheng stood up with Tian Xiaowu's shoulders, kicked his sore legs, and said, "Don't get up." Pay attention to your surroundings and report any situation immediately. I'll go over there and see the wounded. ”

Looking at the wounded soldiers lying on the ground downstairs, there were painful ** sounds everywhere. The slight wound that cuts the flesh is better, and if you don't have a clean raw cloth, you can just find a piece to wrap the wound and finish it, and if you die, it's your life, and if you live, no one cares. The worst thing is that those who are missing arms and legs, half of their bodies are soaked in blood, rolling on the ground and wailing in pain and begging for death, even if Shang Cheng is a person who crawled out of the pile of dead people, he can't help but tremble when he sees such a situation.

In the midst of desolation, he saw Bao Kan and the little stone leaning side by side against a wooden post. One of Bao Kan's arms was wrapped in a thick cloth, and the sleeves could not be torn off; The small stone half of the armor is also black and mushy. Baukan saw him and nodded at him.

He walked over, crouched down and asked, "Is it badly hurt?" ”

Bao Kan shook his head and said, "It's not bad, it's a small injury." As he spoke, he raised his arm and flexed it twice.

"Little stone, you ......" Shang Cheng suddenly froze his words. Only then did he see clearly that Xiao Shi's eyes were closed, and his face was already blue-gray.

Bao Kan said lightly: "He was stabbed in the stomach, and his intestines flowed out......" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and handed something to Shang Cheng. "Little Stone said, this is what you asked him to put away, so that I must remember to give it to you."

Shang Cheng took the blindfold, was silent for a long time before taking off the hood and putting it on, and said to Bao Kan: "You go and gather the officers of the sentry team and come over for a meeting." In addition to our own people, the officers of other teams also shouted. Bao Kan seemed to be afraid of waking up the little stone, so he crept to his feet, but he didn't leave immediately, watching Shang Cheng hold the little stone and put his still soft body on the grass, before pointing to the side and saying, "Captain Wen is over there." ”

"Captain Wen? Which one? Wen Mu? ”

Shang Cheng followed the direction pointed by Bao Kan, and sure enough, he found Wen Mu. Wen Mu's injuries were not serious, but he was only hit by a few arrows in his arm and thigh. When Wen Mu saw him, he didn't bother to greet him, and asked, "What should I do next?" ”

"We can't stick here. The cavalry of the Turquoise brigade has driven our rout, and there are only a few people here who are cleaning the battlefield, so we will take this opportunity to rush out. Otherwise, when they react, we won't be able to hold it. ”

"Which way are you going?"

"There are few of us, and we are not familiar with the surrounding situation, so we can't break in! You can't go to the north. The south side can't go one by one, and the people must prevent the army from breaking through to the south, and there must be arrangements on the road, and we will be sent to death if we go. If you want to meet the heavy army of Tuqi to the east, you can't go, so there is only one way to go. Let's collect the remnants of the soldiers and horses here, and go west, to copy the feather tents of the Tengliang Department on the left and right! ”

Wen Mu and several officers who had gathered were all taken aback by Shang Cheng's unbelievable bold idea. The captain of the guard army, who had met Shang Cheng in the baggage camp the first night, opened his mouth and said, "Shang, captain Shang, this is ...... Will this work? It's someone else's lair......"

Sun Zhongshan was also among the officers, and before Shang Cheng could speak, he said, "I think this is a good idea." When the two sides confront, the Turquoise will definitely send heavy troops to guard against our sneak attack, since we are defeated, then they must guard against us, and the soldiers who stay at home will also be drawn out to chase our people, and by the way, clean up the battlefield one by one, we just caught them off guard! Burn Tengliangbu to the ground, don't be afraid that they won't look back! ”

Several other officers also understood the reason, and they all talked about it, and they all thought that this method was good, as long as they could find a horse, they would definitely be able to kill him!
