Chapter 119: Counterattack (2)
"Lord, the Xijon army is attacking again."
"Brothers, re-establish the line of defense, with the sword and shield men in front and the crossbowmen in the back." Guo Qi ordered.
After watching the Xirong army on the opposite side attack, Guo Qi immediately ordered: "Crossbowmen release arrows." ”
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......"
The crossbowmen released arrows round by round, but the Xirong army was not a fool, they had already taken out their shields to defend, and the Xirong army also had crossbowmen, there were casualties on both sides, and the distance was getting closer and closer.
"Stubble, melee." Guo Qi brandished his sword and ordered.
The hand-to-hand combat between the two sides began, in order to be able to achieve the final victory, the two sides even used the strength to eat, and after fighting for an hour, the Xirong army finally couldn't hold it anymore, and then began to retreat gradually.
"Lord, we can't chase it." Xiao Xiao asked Guo Qi.
"The order was ordered, ordering Tang Bi to lead the hussar guards, and Hu Qiong to lead the Nancheng army to attack the Xirong army camp." Guo Qi gave a military order very decisively.
"No! Order the flag bearer, go to the roof to give the order. ”
Huangyang Guannan City.
Unlike the northern city, the southern city is still in the hands of the Yongjun army; Moreover, due to the lack of strength of the Xirong army, the attack on Nancheng had been stopped at this time, and only a garrison was left outside Nancheng.
"Two generals, the lord has an order; The hussars and the Nancheng army were ordered to raid the camp of the Xirong army outside the city. "Order the flag soldiers to report to Hu Qiong and Tang Biyu.
"Brother Hu, I will first lead the hussar guards to attack and contain the bearded sword knights who are guarding outside the Xirong army," Tang Bi said first.
"Okay, you go first; I then led my army to attack the camp of the Xijon Army. Hu Qiong also said.
"Open the gates."
"Rumble, Rumble, Boom......"
After the 6,000 hussars went out of the city, with the heavy cavalry in front and the light cavalry in the rear, they took the initiative to attack the vigilant troops arranged outside the city by Murong Chui, which was the first time since the Battle of Huangyang that the Yong army took the initiative to go out of the city to fight against the Xirong army.
"The heavy cavalry is flat, and the light cavalry is arrows." Tang Bi ordered loudly.
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves had already covered Tang Bi's military order, and only a few people around Tang Bi heard it, and these people also shouted: "The heavy cavalry is flat, and the light cavalry is arrows." ”
Seeing the cavalry of the Yongjun army out of the city, the Xirong army outside the city was overjoyed and immediately prepared to fight; The garrison unit arranged by Murong Trai is not a good stubble, but an elite bearded knight under Murong Trai.
"Knights of the Sword, it's finally our turn to show off your skills, pull out your sabers and kill me." The commander of the three thousand men rode on his war horse and pointed to the Yongjun Road that was rushing over.
A cavalry battle unfolded in the south of Huangshui, 6,000 hussars against 3,000 Hudao knights, although the hussars were twice as strong as the Husse Knights, but they did not have an absolute advantage, and the cavalry and archery skills of the Hudao Knights were much higher than the hussars.
Both sides charged at each other with arrows, and there was a fierce collision, "Poof! "The sharp lance pierced directly through the leather armor of the Bearded Knight; The heavy cavalry of the hussar guards, with their strong armor and sharp lance, stabbed the hedged bearded knights under their horses, and the swords of the bearded knights could not hurt the heavy armor of the heavy armored cavalry at all.
"Turn to battle, turn to ......" The three thousand commanders saw that close combat was not good, and immediately disengaged from the heavy armored cavalry of the Yong army.
"General, the Xijon cavalry is going to run." Ma Ying reminded Tang Bidao.
"Order the third and fourth cavalry mansions to outflank from both flanks, and the remaining three mansions to pursue head-on." Tang Bi resolutely ordered.
When the cavalry of both sides fought fiercely on the south bank of Huangshui, Hu Qiong led the 5,000 Yongjun foot soldiers to kill out of Nancheng, but they did not come to reinforce Tang Bi, but killed the Chinese army camp of the Xirong army.
"The Yongjun is here, the Yongjun is here......" the Xirong sergeant guarding the camp shouted loudly.
Since the elites were all taken away by Murong Chui, at this time, all that was left in the camp were some old, weak, sick and disabled, and there were not many people, only a thousand people, and they were not the opponents of the five thousand Yongjun army at all; Hu Qiong entered the camp of the Chinese army by surprise, and after the Yongjun army entered the camp, they immediately set fire everywhere, and soon the entire camp was on fire.
"Dashuai, it's not good; You see there's a fire in the camp. The centurion pointed to the west and said aloud.
Seeing the billowing smoke burning in the direction, Murong Chui's heart sank and said, "It's over." ”
The camp was on fire, which made the Xirong soldiers attacking in the city panic, and Guo Qi was naturally happy when he saw this smoke, Guo Qi knew that it must be Hu Qiong and Tang Bi who copied Murong Chui's back road.
"Brothers, Murong Chui's back road has been copied by us, and this king will be killed!" Guo Qi took the lead and killed the Xirong army.
The back road was copied, and in the face of the fierce attack of the Yong army, the morale of the Xirong army fell to the valley all of a sudden, and the Yong army led by Guo Qi was caught off guard, and could only step by step to the west city gate.
The camp was lost, and Murong Trai did not have the confidence to compete with the Yongjun army for Huangyang Pass, and the heart of retreat sprouted in Murong Trai's heart.
"Don't say goodbye, you lead the headquarters to hold the city gate, and the commander leads the rest of the soldiers to recapture the camp first." Murong Chui didn't say anything about speed.
"No! Subordinates receive orders. "Don't take the order.
Murong Chui led more than 20,000 Xirong elite soldiers to withdraw from Wangyang Pass, leaving only 3,000 people to guard the city gate; Murong Chui retreated in a hurry, and there was no time to reorganize the troops and horses, and the elite soldiers of Xirong at this time had become the defeated soldiers of Xirong.
"Marshal, do we want to recapture the Chinese army camp." Captain Wan asked Murong Chui.
"Our army has been completely defeated, and the herald ordered the army to pass through the camp and withdraw to the west." Murong Chui resolutely ordered.
When Murong Trai was about to bypass the camp, Hu Qiong led 5,000 Yong troops to block the way for Murong Trai to retreat westward, and Murong Trai personally led a thousand Hu Dao knights to launch a fierce attack on Hu Qiong's department, and then the Xirong infantry who caught up also joined the battle.
"General, the attack of the Xirong army is too fierce, and the brothers are almost unable to withstand it." A small school reporter reports.
"If you can't stand it, you have to hold on for a while; The main force led by the lord has arrived. Hu Qiong, covered in blood, roared angrily: "Brothers, kill ......"
In the evening, the battle outside the city finally ended, and Hu Qiong was finally unable to stop the Xirong rout led by Murong Trai, allowing Murong Trai to lead 20,000 remnants of the army to break through; On the other side, Tang Bi was not able to keep the three thousand bearded sword knights, allowing them to run more than half.
The west gate tower of the north city of Huangyang Pass.
The battle continued, and Su Bubei led more than 100 remnants of the army to retreat to the West Gate Tower, and the rest of the city wall was full of corpses, and the entire city wall was covered with blood and stumps.
"Fifth son, send someone to call inside, and this king wants to see their leader."
"No! This is arranged. ”
"Listen to the Xirong army in the city tower, let your leaders come out, my lord has an invitation." Li Wu personally shouted.
When the Xirong troops in the city tower heard this, they all persuaded them to say goodbye: "General, can you go!" Maybe it's their conspiracy. ”
"Yes, yes, yes...... It must be their conspiracy, general, you can't go! ”
"It's okay, I'm going to see what kind of character this Yongwang Guo Qi is, and he actually beat us so badly." Don't do it quickly, and finally decide.
