Chapter Ninety-Four: Breakout
Lan Ziyi shouted:
"Thief Boss!"
Tao Zhuhu had already seen the thief under the handsome banner, and when he heard the words, he cut off the head of the thief next to him with a knife, and then put the knife into the sheath, raised the longbow he had just snatched with his left hand, and put the only arrow on his right hand, stood up high in the saddle, stared at the thief and handsome, and made a low voice in the blink of an eye
"Medium!"
Then he put the string in his right hand, and the arrow threw a straight line towards the thief boss on the horse.
The thief's handsome guards really didn't cover it, so they immediately lined up as a wall and shielded in front of the boss, and opened the arrow feathers.
Tao Zhuhu missed the blow, but smiled:
"Good block!"
It turned out that Tao Zhulu beside Lan Ziyi also snatched the bow and arrow when he charged just now, and kept hiding next to the horse.
At this time, Tao Zhuhu took the lead and attracted the attention of the other party.
Tao Zhulu took out his bow and arrow, and stood on the back of the horse to aim at the thief.
The charging knights had already rushed to the center of the thief formation at an extremely high speed, and the thief commander was beside him, but the thief had no time to reorganize his personnel to defend Tao Zhulu.
At the moment when Tao Zhulu released the arrow, the thief and the armored warrior who rushed out of nowhere raised his gun and stabbed it into the armpit on the right side of Tao Zhulu.
Momo had no choice but to turn sideways, and although the tip of the spear failed to stab him, it still scratched his unarmored right rib.
Tao Zhulu endured the pain and threw away the bow and arrow, drew the saber, and slashed down in the last time before leaving the thief.
The blade cut through the gap between the thief's helmet and armor, slicing blood.
The arrows were released at the last moment, and they pounced on the thief.
The thief reacted quickly enough, dodged sideways, and the arrow grazed his neck and cut through the skin.
Lan Ziyi could see the thief shuai stroking his neck with his hand, with a sneer on his face for the rest of his life.
Tao Cha Rabbit shouted after a thief next to him:
"Second brother!"
桃扵鹿 says:
"I'm fine!"
Peach chased the tiger and scolded:
"What a pity!"
Then Peach Chase Rabbit suddenly shouted:
"Young Master, be careful!"
I don't know when a warrior in armor beside the thief is already full of bows and arrows, and he raises it high.
The thief archer wanted to aim at the peach chase tiger, but was shouted by the thief handsome, and then turned his head to Lan Ziyi and let go of the bow.
The arrow feathers galloped in the air, coming straight to Lanzi's Yimian Gate.
Lan Ziyi didn't have time to react at all, and there was only one thought left in his mind
"It's over."
The next second, there was an arm in front of him.
It turned out that the peach rabbit on the side stretched out his right arm in time to file an arrow for Lan Ziyi.
The arrow was poured in from the inside of the right arm, directly piercing the outer arm guard, and almost hitting the nose of Lan Ziyi.
Peach Chai Rabbit screamed in pain, withdrew his arm, gritted his teeth and broke the arrow.
Lan Ziyi took a breath, and when the shock was first settled, he looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, it turned out that he was alive so well, and then Lan Ziyi shouted:
"There's no way the thief boss can kill him! Let's go! ”
At this time, the soldiers of the army encountered the pro-army guards in armor and injured each other.
But there are a large number of thieves, and if they love to fight, the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion will inevitably die here.
So the soldiers slashed and killed all the way to break through the last layer of thieves.
Not far in front of me are the besieged soldiers who are guarding in the grove.
The besieged soldiers saw Lan Ziyi leading the team to rush in, and the soldiers facing the northern hillside hurriedly opened the gap.
The soldiers of the Jihu Battalion in infantry scattered to both sides and stepped forward to fight the pursuing thieves with their lances.
The commander of the thieves was raided, and he could not command the whole army for a while, and the soldiers of this formation were fighting or staying, and they were at a loss, and many people chased the knights of the Jihu battalion into the woods, and they were greeted by a dense long lance of cold light, and a round of charging down did not catch up with the soldiers of the Jihu battalion, but many of their own people were stabbed to death by spears.
There were five squares of thieves, and when besieging the remnants of Wei Qionglou, the northwest slope of the hill was in the limelight under fire, and retreated to the southwest before the siege began, and did not enter the siege;
The two bandit phalanxes besieging in the east were turned upside down by the knights of the Jihu Battalion who had just fought all the way, although there were still many people involved in the attack, but there was no organization, just a group of people rushed up, and there was no threat at all;
As for the phalanx to the south, it attacked with all its might, but after only a short fight, it was separated by fire and could not fight again.
Therefore, although the besieged soldiers were in a crisis, they did not have much pressure for the time being, and they still had the strength to meet them after Lan Ziyi and them rushed down the hillside.
Lan Ziyi led a group of cavalry to rush into the circle formation of the besieged soldiers and slowly slowed down.
Lan Ziyi asked Tao Zhutu first:
"How's it going, are you alright?"
The right arm of the peach rabbit has been dyed red, although it is covered with his hand, but it is still trickling out of the blood,
Holding back the pain, he replied:
"Wei Hou don't worry, skin trauma."
Momo Rabbit wanted to smile, but because of the pain, his grinning expression became extremely hideous.
Lan Ziyi saw the pain in his eyes and heart, this is a skin injury, the arrow passed through the entire forearm, and it is estimated that it hurt the bones, how can that pain be endured.
Peach Chase Rabbit removed the right sleeve, Peach Chase Tiger and Peach Chase Deer also drove over to bandage Peach Chase Rabbit,
Tao Zhuhu looked at the wound and said:
"Luckily, the arrow didn't stay in the meat, waiting for it to break out, and I pulled out the arrow at night and put some medicine."
Tao Zhutu's lips turned white, and when he heard his eldest brother say this, he smiled as an answer.
Tao Zhuhu said that although it was easy, his situation was worse.
The thigh was already injured before, and both calves were cut down after this round of charge, and the abdomen was poked by a gun, although it was blocked by the armor and did not hurt the organs, but the stomach was still scratched, and in addition, there was an arrow that hit the collarbone of the peach tiger through the gap in the armor, which can really be said to be scarred.
In addition to being scratched in the ribs on the right side, he was shot in the left arm and stabbed in the right buttocks.
The other soldiers of the Jihu Battalion also hung colors everywhere, and the battle was fierce, and many of them lost their helmets, arm guards, and neck armor in the charge just now.
At this time, Wei Qionglou came to Lan Ziyi's side and helped the person off the horse, and said ashamedly:
"Why did Wei Hou come to die!
Qionglou was reckless and did not listen to good advice, so that he suffered this defeat, and more than 2,000 brothers were broken in half.
His Majesty has no way, and the deputy general I saw just now charged without authorization and killed a group of brothers,
Now I still let the three Langjun of the Weihou and Tao families fall into a deep siege, I really ......"
Wei Qionglou said that he was sad, grabbed Lan Ziyi's arm and cried bitterly.
The soldiers of the Tiger Battalion on the side were all sad and indignant when they heard this, thinking that the brothers who got along with them day and night died in a foreign land, and now they may follow in the footsteps of you, and they all cried with their generals.
Lan Ziyi was distressed when he heard this, and saw that Wei Qionglou's armor was scattered with scales, his helmet was gone, and only the bun that was about to fall apart was even more heartbroken, so he hurriedly helped the person up and said:
"General don't cry, now the thieves are in full swing and are besieging us from all sides. At this time, the general should cheer up and command all the brothers to rush out! “
Wei Qionglou nodded when he listened, wiped away his tears, and stopped crying.
Fortunately, at this moment, a sharp cymbal sounded in the bandits' main formation, and the thieves who were attacking indiscriminately all retreated when they heard the order.
The heavy rain poured down, and the approaching flames were extinguished, and the uncomfortable soldiers who had been smoked could finally rest.
The Tao brothers helped each other to dismount, and Tao Zhuhu said:
"The thieves just went back and reorganized, and it won't take long."
Wei Qionglou cried just now and poured the blocks in his heart, and then finally recovered his spirit and said:
"Didn't the thieves capture Xiangfan? Why are there so many people here? Isn't Yiling a suspicious soldier? “
兰子义 says:
"When you were in a hurry to set off, I wanted to say that according to the Yiling Army report, there will be no shortage of thieves, and it doesn't look like a suspicious soldier. It's just that it's too late to say that now. “
Then Lan Ziyi saw that the soldiers who were surrounded were taking advantage of this gap to catch the rain with helmets or leaves, and shook his head in distress.
With the help of his brother, Tao Zhulu had already bandaged his wounds and said:
"We must break through as soon as possible, the thieves wait until the next attack of the thieves is tens of thousands of bows and crossbows, and crush me with a dignified array, and then I will not survive if I can fight."
Wei Qionglou nodded and asked:
"How many cavalry are there?"
One rider with a less injured injury said:
"Back to the general, there are only five hundred left!"
Wei Qionglou gritted his teeth when he listened,
At this time, Peach Rabbit said:
"Either the two of us will run away."
Tao Zhuhu shook his head and said:
"After two battles in a row, the horses are tired, and if you really want to ride two people, you won't be faster than people, let alone intercept in advance, and there will be chasing soldiers later."
兰子义 says:
"The general's cavalry assaulted first, managed to break through the gap, and the infantry followed behind, and that's all."
A rider on the side came to Wei Qionglou's side, and after giving up his horse, he said:
"General, please get on board!"
Wei Qionglou laughed out loud when he heard this, and said:
"Your horse, you ride it yourself! I'm going to charge later, so I'm not going back to charge for you. I, Wei Qionglou, miscalculated overnight and broke half a battalion of brothers, how can I ride a horse and leave others behind?!
Wei Hou, you didn't have to come here to die, since I ventured in, how could I drag you down in such a place? Daigong only has you as a son, and he can't let a white-haired person send a black-haired person. You take the remaining five hundred horsemen to rush first, and I will take the brothers here to fight the queen of the palace! “
Wei Qionglou's words were desolate and sad, and the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion knew that their generals had the idea of death, and they all cried sadly when they heard it.
兰子义 says:
"No one will die, I brought people in just to get you out, so no one will die."
When Wei Qionglou heard Lan Ziyi's words, he just grabbed his hand tightly and couldn't say a word.
On the side, Tao Zhulu asked:
"In which direction are we going to break through?"
桃追兔 says:
"The northwest slope is unguarded, so you can walk from that side."
魏qiong楼 says:
"It was uphill, and the horses couldn't do anything, and when the thieves withdrew, they dug a trap in the woods, and the cavalry couldn't get through it. If you want to get there, you have to get off your horse and walk, and you can't go fast when you pass the trap. ”
Tao Zhuhu continued:
"Our army is outnumbered, and we are engaged in continuous battles, and these soldiers inside can't even drink water these days, and if they get off their horses and climb the mountain, the tens of thousands of people behind them can't get rid of them. What's more, the thieves have bows and crossbows, and we don't have them. ”
兰子义 says:
"There are only two exits in this canyon, and after just now, the thief Kou Formation and the other two phalanxes are blocked in the northeast direction, and there are also armored guards in the Thief Kou Formation, which is very capable of fighting, and it is not a way to survive over there.
Although there is an unscathed phalanx of thieves at the exit in the southwest, after all, there are few people, as long as we fight fast and fierce enough, there is still a chance. “
Everyone nodded.
At this moment, there was the sound of conch blowing in the thief's main formation, followed by footsteps from all directions.
Wei Qionglou glanced at Lan Ziyi and said:
"Take care."
Then he shouted:
"All the troops obey the order and go all out to break through!"
