Chapter 1278: Bloody Battle

1278. Bloody Battle

is the so-called general is the courage of soldiers, in such a predicament, the Xue brothers did not panic, and the Tang army under their hands was also extremely brave, Gu all ignored the oncoming arrows, desperately charged forward, and there were crossbowmen who continued to shoot arrows to fight back.

And the arrows of the Tuyuhun soldiers and horses did not seem to be violent, sparse and sparse, and did not form an overwhelming and effective arrow rain like the Tang army, after all, they did not have the strong bows and crossbows of the Central Plains.

After a few rounds of shooting, although the Tang army also suffered a lot of casualties, but the armor on their bodies played a great role, Tuyuhun's horse bow was not strong, even if the distance was so close, except for the warriors with strong arms, it was impossible to shoot through the armor of the Tang army, and the Tang army that was shot did not lose its combat effectiveness if it was not for the fatal arrows in the face and neck.

But there is a saying that shoots people first and shoots horses, Tuyuhun people are natural horse warriors, and they understand this truth, many Tang army horses were shot dead and wounded, war horses were injured and went crazy, many Tang troops were also thrown off their horses, and unfortunately they were trampled to death.

After the sparse rain of arrows, I saw that the Tuyuhun soldiers seemed to have received orders, they all abandoned their bows, and in the sound of horns, raised their scimitars to fight with the Tang army.

Xue Wanche looked like crazy, a long lance in his hand stabbed left and right, invincible, I don't know how many Tuyuhun soldiers died under his lance, and his own soldiers around him were also covered in blood, loyally guarding their generals.

It's just that the manpower and machine are exhausted, no matter how brave the Tang army is, there are also times when the strength is weak, when facing the black oppressive enemy army, killing back wave after wave, the Tang army is also facing fear and despair in his heart.

Xue Wanjun was the first to notice this situation, looked left and right, and saw that thousands of people had been firmly trapped, and the Tuyuhun soldiers and horses who were originally flanking had formed a flanking attack on them.

"The fourth brother is going to fight in love, break through quickly", Xue Wanjun hissed.

"General be careful", when Xue Wanjun shouted distractedly, a nearby Tuyuhun soldier raised his knife and stabbed it diagonally, with the shouting of a pro-soldier Xue Wanjun looked back, only to see that the Tuyuhun soldier's scimitar had pierced into the stomach of the pro-soldier.

"General, ...... go". The pro-soldier's mouth gushed out of the foam, and he grabbed the scimitar that was pierced into his stomach with both hands, and said in pain, so he pulled the scimitar hard, and the scimitar pierced through the stomach, but the Tuyuhun soldier who held the scimitar tightly was also unstable and was pulled off the horse by the dying pro-soldier.

"Ahh Looking for death", Xue Wanjun's eyes were red, he roared angrily, and waved the horse lance in his hand, and the Tuyuhun soldier who was about to struggle to get up saw his headless body gushing blood.

The battle is ongoing, there are casualties all the time, at this time, only a heaven-shattering roar was heard, Xue Wanjun looked at it, and was immediately shocked, only to see that the fourth brother Xue Wanche's war horse was stabbed into the neck by a Tuyuhun soldier with a scimitar, and fell to the ground with a scream, Xue Wanche turned over and dismounted, and stabbed the Tuyuhun soldier with a spear.

Seeing that the fourth brother fell off the horse, holding the lance to fight, Xue Wanjun was also in a hurry, you must know that Xue Wanche is a cavalry general, and all his abilities are on the horse, and the horse lance is eight feet long, how to make the foot battle open.

"The fourth brother abandoned the lance and fought on foot".

Seeing that after Xue Wanche stabbed an enemy to death with a lance, the tail of the horse lance was pestled on the ground, and it was difficult to use it for a while, but several Tuyuhun soldiers on the opposite side forced forward, Xue Wanjun couldn't help but anxiously remind.

"How can you kill me as a thief."

A good Xue Wanche, worthy of being the first general under Li Jiancheng of the East Palace in the past, a well-known enemy of 10,000 people, immediately took a pestle on the horse, jumped up with both arms supporting the lance, kicked over a Tuyuhun cavalry, and seized the horse.

"Third brother, this is not a rout" Xue Wanche waved his long lance, and came to Xue Wanjun's side with a bloody way to shout, "How can such a thief have such combat power, it is definitely not a remnant."

Xue Wanjun also had a solemn face, pursed his mouth, and shot a violent gaze seriously, looking at the Tuyuhun soldiers around him, as well as the sound of the horn sounding in the distance, he gritted his teeth and said: "This is the reassembled men and horses of the Tianzhu King, we are too light on the enemy."

"Light fart, no matter how powerful I am, I'm going to kill him all", Xue Wanche highlighted a mouthful of thick phlegm and scolded, and his backhand was stabbed through by a Tuyuhun soldier in front of him.

"No, you can't fight, you break through quickly, I'll cover."

Xue Wanjun didn't let his younger brother come this time, and shouted categorically.

Xue Wanche glanced at the corners of his mouth, and regardless of the fact that he rushed to kill a few Tuyuhun soldiers in front of him, and only after killing two or three did he turn around and shout: "When did the third brother see me fighting cowardly, I can't do such a thing as running away."

Saying that, Xue Wanche looked up to the sky and laughed, arrogant, the more he killed, the more courageous he became, waving the long lance in his hand, blood splashing straight up, drenching all over his face, like a Rakshasa ghost, really courageous.

The surrounding Tang army was also demoralized when they saw that their generals were so heroic, and they roared lowly, and they all mustered up their strength to fight.

After a while, the war horse under the seat of the two brothers fell down again, and one of the war horses died and went to snatch another, the voice was hoarse, the strength was weakened, and the only thing that remained unchanged was the murderous aura and fearless momentum.

The long lance in his hand seems to be as heavy as ten thousand pounds, every swing is a gritted tooth with all his strength, Xue Wanjun has already abandoned the horse lance, grabbed two scimitars, and does not need any discipline, slashing left and right, attacking but not defending, death and life.

In the face of the Tuyuhun soldiers who occupied the advantage of the Jedi in numbers, the Tang army had suffered heavy casualties so far, and it was all the way to the Chihai Sea where the Congku Mountain was burned and looted, and the feet occupied very little land along the way, and the five thousand men and horses had been killed and wounded nearly a thousand people near the Chihai Sea, and only more than 4,000 people remained.

The Tuyuhun soldiers and horses were waiting for work again, resting here for a few days, opening their "arms" to welcome the Tang army, the number of people was as many as 20,000, the situation had become one-sided, the Tang army only struggled to form a war group, relying on each other to fight, and until now, everyone has been wounded, physically and mentally exhausted.

The Tuyuhun soldiers and horses also seemed to be shocked by the tenacity and unyielding of the Tang army, and the offensive was blocked for a while, and the two sides were at the gate of the small camp, on the side of the high slope.

On the high slope, looking at those Tang Jun who were covered in blood and had fierce eyes, the blades in their hands were dripping with blood, and the Tianzhu King only felt that his mood was heavy, and his face was also moved.

Then he also drew his sword and shouted: "Kill, kill this king, and die to the cowardly."

The soldiers around him acted as overseers, desperately urging the soldiers of various tribes to rush and kill, and for a while, the pressure on the Xue Wanche brothers increased sharply.
