Chapter 239: Run

The attack unfolded throughout the camp where Zuo Yiwei was stationed.

In each place, the overwhelming assault of the Turks maintained at least five rounds of charge.

These five rounds of charging were enough to kill a fifth of Zuo Yiwei and cause them great confusion.

Thus ensuring that the Turks who had passed through the camp would return for a second round of sweeps.

Zuo Yiwei was still unable to form an effective counterattack.

Zuo Yiwei fell into absolute chaos.

The horizontal knife in Li Xingzhou's hand had already been cut to the point of curl.

Now he used a long Turkic knife that he had snatched from his hand.

He ran all the way back, and he didn't know how many people had been hacked to death.

He was stained with blood, and he had the blood of his enemies.

There is also his own blood, as well as the blood of his comrades, and there are fewer and fewer soldiers who follow him.

But there was still a boundless, desperate Turkic cavalry ahead.

Thanks to the mix of enemies and enemies here, you can only fight hand-to-hand and can't fire arrows.

Otherwise, Li Xingzhou would have already been killed on the spot, and it would have been impossible to rush to the present.

When Li Xingzhou was leading the team forward, he faintly heard a horn sound, turned his head and looked again, the forest was silent, but there was no sound.

Li Xingzhou thought it was his hallucination, but several soldiers also said that they heard it.

"Shanhou, let's go!"

Park Kyung-tae screamed in panic.

"Can't go, kill back!"

Li Xingzhou pulled out his knife from the sheath, and a fierce gaze burst out of his eyes.

Now that the robe is bathing in blood, how can he retreat?

Li Xingzhou raised his long knife and rushed towards the enemy formation without hesitation.

Like a tiger that chooses people to devour, it shouts and screams.

In the neighing of the war horse, he rushed forward fiercely!

But now that he has been killed, there are fewer and fewer people around him.

There is not a single one in the encircled robe, but there are more and more Turkic people around.

"Hou Shan, let's retreat! At the very least, someone has to go back and report the news! ”

With a broken arm, Wang Xingyan just said.

was stabbed in the heart by a spear of the Turks.

"Let's go!"

Just died because of a war horse.

Li Xingzhou, who snatched a horse from the enemy, knew that it was pointless to rush and kill again.

had to lead the remnants of less than twenty people to rush back with hatred.

……

The spears and swords stuck in the corpses were more vigorous than the wild grasses in the field.

Ownerless horses scurried across the blood-stained steppe.

The corpses are piling up.

Occasionally, a bloodied warrior would rise up and stagger to his feet.

Either the intestines are pierced or the stumps are missing legs, struggling slowly, like a zombie.

......

It was an unmiserable fiasco.

Wang Xingyan's younger brother Wang Xingyan was killed.

This cowardly son of the Wang family grew up quickly in the flames of war.

and the horse leather shrouded the body.

Wang is rare, and Ma Sui is nowhere to be found.

Li Xingzhou and Park Jingtai didn't even dare to look back, gritting their teeth and being ruthless.

Each led a horse into the dense forest.

With the fleeing people, they hurriedly withdrew into the dense forests in the south.

Running for your life is running for your life, which can only be described as crawling with a rolling belt.

The mountains, numbering about four or five hundred people, were wandering through the dense jungle without sunlight.

Li Xingzhou also had to shout loudly from time to time to gather these people, so as not to get scattered and lost in the jungle.

Or be eaten by wild beasts alone.

The cavalry of the Turks easily did not dare to break into the dense woods.

Coupled with the fact that Wang Rare and others swore to stop them, it seemed that there was no chasing soldiers into the woods for a while, and Li Xingzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

In my heart, it is even heavier.

After escaping for an hour or two, he found a small stream.

Li Xingzhou beckoned the people to rest by the stream.

If you have dry food, eat some dry food, and if you don't have dry food, it's good to add a little water.

Lee Hang-ju and Park Kyung-tae were surprisingly silent along the way.

Now they are sitting back to back, and they can only take care of gasping for air.

Long.

The people who were resting in front of them suddenly let out an exclamation and commotion.

"Don't be afraid!!"

Li Xingzhou drew his sword out of the sheath and rushed over with one arrow step.

Park Kyung-tae roared loudly and grabbed his Da Mo knife and jumped up like a black bear.

"The Tang soldiers are here, who dares to hurt the people, chop them into meat puree to make buns!!"

......

Twenty or thirty men came out of the woods, all ragged and shaped like savages.

But everyone has a weapon in their hands.

"Brother, slow down, we are also Tang Army!!"

Someone on the other side shouted.

Li Xingzhou stood still with the horizontal knife in one step, "Which part?" ”

"Shuozhou guards, under the command of Gao Cheng, the head of the Shuofang Road march!"

The other party said loudly.

"What part are you from?"

Li Xingzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

Listening to the accent, looking at the armor and weapons, it is indeed the Tang Army.

"We are the king of the Northern Expedition, under the command of Hei Zhi Chang, the general manager of the Shan Yu Dao Marching Army!"

Li Xingzhou said loudly.

"Master Wang is here? General Blacktooth is here?! ”

The opposing sergeant let out a thunderous cheer.

"Master Wang is here! The royal master of the imperial court is here! ”

Li Xingzhou strode forward.

"How many of you are there?"

"There were about two hundred, mostly wounded, scattered in the jungle."

A man who looked like a small school on the other side replied.

"I vaguely heard the sound of a trumpet in the distance in the north, and we came to investigate...... What's going on here? ”

"More than two hundred brothers? Wow! ”

Park Kyung-tae came to his senses as soon as he heard it and said loudly.

"Hurry up and kill me back......"

Li Xing kicked him in the ass on Monday and gave him a stumble.

Kill your uncle, these people are about to lose their footing.

Didn't it be clear to the Turkic cavalry to send them to death?

Besides, it's hard to say whether these people are friends or foes!

"Brother, what's going on?"

Those soldiers gathered around and looked at Li Xingzhou together.

Li Xingzhou said.

"Following the fall of Shuozhou, Daizhou also fell. We are the scouts of the main army, and we have unfortunately encountered most of the Turks. In order to rescue these fleeing people, my brothers put up a desperate resistance at the front, buying time for us to cover the evacuation of the people. ”

"Daiju has also fallen?!"

The sergeants were taken aback.

Li Xingzhou nodded.

"Now, you should join me in escorting the people to the south and to the camp of the king of Bingzhou."

The sergeants fell silent for a moment, and several of them had suspicious expressions on their faces.

There were also people who stared at the people with bad intentions, staring at their burdens, and the hunger on their faces was undisguised.

"Why don't you keep quiet?"

Park Kyung-tae was annoyed and shouted.

"Could it be that you have become a deserter, and you don't want to be guilty of meritorious service? What a bastard! ”

"Shut up!"

Li Xingzhou shouted, crying bitterly in his heart.

Park Kyung-tae is an idiot.

In times of war, there is only a paper separation between "soldiers and bandits", and these defeated soldiers can be our comrades in life and death, or they may be mountain bandits who kill people and overstep goods.

If you really want to condemn them as "deserters", they will definitely break the jars and ropes to kill us, take food and goods, hide them and run to the grass to fall into the grass!

"We are not deserters!"

The men were suddenly hostile, and they took a step back with a wary and neat look.

"I know!"

Li Xingzhou hurriedly said loudly.

"I know the situation of the first battle in Shuozhou very well. Gao Cheng was too eager to make meritorious service to atone for his crimes, and he was greedy for merit and raided Heisha, but he fell into the siege of Ashina Gu Dulu, and fled back to Shuozhou after a crushing defeat. ”

"Ashina Gu Dulu did not keep the covenant and covered up all the way and took Shuozhou, resulting in the fall of the city and the destruction of the army."

"This crime is all on Gao Cheng alone, and he has nothing to do with his brothers! When I go back to see the coach, I will explain the reasons for the brothers, clear up and clarify the brothers, and give you justice! ”

As soon as Li Xingzhou said this, all the sergeants breathed a sigh of relief and restrained some of their hostility.

"I heard that your words are good and insightful, dare to ask what the official position is?"

Someone asked.

"Yes, what is your official position? Who are you qualified to meet the manager to intercede for us? ”

"Uh......"

Park Jingtai was dumbfounded, Li Xingzhou was the deputy general of logistics, the general of Zuo Yiwei, and the marquis of Shan, who was sealed by the imperial court.

Speaking out can naturally suppress these people.

However, if these people have bad intentions, then they are a big fish.

Li Xingzhou frowned, at the time of the funeral, life and death were on the verge of death, people were very suspicious and angry, and the constraints of ordinary laws and morals would be left behind.

Right now, if I impersonate anyone or any position, I have the possibility of being a goof.

Once I goof, these people will think that I am cheating them and trying to frame them.

These people can instantly become robbers who kill people and oversell goods, and the situation is bound to be out of control!

Thinking of this, Li Xingzhou took off his helmet and said.

"I can't hide it, I am the deputy general of the rear army, General Zuo Yiwei, and Li Xingzhou, the male marquis of Kaiguo County!"

"Huh?"

The crowd was taken aback.

"Since you don't know you when you say it, why ask?"

Li Xingzhou smiled indifferently.

"Brothers, trust me. As long as you are still loyal Datang soldiers, I will try my best to ensure that you will not be questioned. ”

"As long as you help me protect these people when they arrive in Bingzhou, I will also play the role of General Blacktooth and make a credit for you!"

The sergeants did not answer with suspicious expressions on their faces, and they began to discuss with each other.

A cold sweat flowed from Park Kyung-tae's forehead, and his neck was cold.

He's not really stupid, and now he's aware of the danger here.

If they can't convince these rebels, they may kill people and rob them of food and property, and then flee!

Defeated soldiers and deserters returning to the barracks are subject to military law.

At the worst penalty was confiscation and enslavement, and at worst exile and beheading.

Even if they are not punished, they have no status or dignity in the barracks.

Therefore, when the war is in chaos, you can see many defeated soldiers who are broken and broken, and they have already sentenced themselves to death in their hearts.

At present, one more day of life is to earn one day, so it completely destroys humanity and becomes unscrupulous!

Such people gathered together, far more vicious and cruel than ordinary mountain bandits and robbers!

The sergeants whispered and deliberated, and some went into the woods to call for help.

A few moments later, a dozen more people came.

"Who said that no one knows Li Xingzhou!"

Out of the crowd came a man who looked like their leader, tall and unarmoured.

But he wears a bright light armor and a scarf.

Li Xingzhou looked at this person, but he hadn't seen it.

He can afford to wear bright light armor, and he is either a high-ranking officer or a member of the royal family.

He wore this hood, presumably to assert his leadership among the crowd.

"Where's your armor?"

Li Xingzhou took the lead and asked loudly.

The man was slightly stunned and replied forcefully.

"Don't worry about it!"

"Okay, I'll leave it at that."

Li Xingzhou nodded.

"You said you knew Li Xingzhou, so who are you?"

"I'm a thousand cows under the command of Quan Shancai, the general of Yingwuwei, Fang Peng!"

The man looked Li Xingzhou up and down and narrowed his eyes.

"I believe you!"

Park Kyung-tae felt that his underwear was all soaked with sweat, it was so dangerous, I really didn't expect that there would be such a danger in the face of his own people!

Fang Peng was still very vigilant and hostile to look at Li Xingzhou and said.

"The Turks rebelled, and General Quan led Yingwuwei to ask for permission to quell the rebellion. Our 800-step crossbow was assigned to Gao Cheng as a personal guard, and we were the first to set off with him to guard Shuozhou. ”

"Now, presumably General Quan must have led most of the Yingwuwei and the main army of General Heizhi to walk together."

"Why, you keep saying that you are a student of General Blacktooth, but you don't even know this?"

"I really don't know. I set off first with Huan Yanfan, the head of the march of the rear army, escorting the grain and grass. ”

Li Xingzhou said.

"When I heard that Shuozhou had fallen, I personally led the scout rangers to reconnoitre...... Now, the 30,000 horses and horses of the front army of Huan Yanfan's department have arrived in Bingzhou, and General Heizhi led an army of 100,000 to quell the rebellion, and most of the follow-up main forces are about to arrive. ”

"Brothers, don't doubt it, hurry up and work with me to protect these people and return to the state. I vouch for the innocence of all of you, and credit for one! ”

After all, they are all Tang people, and they are all dragging their mouths in the rear, and some people are leaning on the door to look forward to each other.

If you don't want to be classified as a deserter, you can go home and reunite with your family, and you can still get a credit?

......

Li Xingzhou asked Fang Peng to gather all the remnants of the army and escort these people back to the state.

More than ninety percent of them looked like savages, more than half of them were wounded, and many of them were seriously injured.

It seems that these people don't want to escape, but they really can't escape before they nest in this mountain forest.

Food and medicine have become a big problem!

Li Xingzhou took some sturdy remnants of soldiers and people to hunt wild beasts, pick mushrooms, and wild vegetables in the woods, and dig up a lot of herbs to treat people's injuries and diseases.

Although it could not completely cure them, it could alleviate their temporary pain.

More importantly, Li Xingzhou gave them the confidence to live, clear their names, return to the barracks and live a normal life!

People are in a desperate situation, and they can only be supported by a spirit and perseverance.

After sunset, the mountains and forests were dark and cold.

I vaguely heard the cry of a wild wolf in the distance.

Someone wanted to start a fire, and Li Xingzhou asked them to extinguish it.

Attract wild wolves, but they are not afraid.

Attracting Turkic soldiers, that's really miserable!

Of the two hundred remnants, about thirty or forty can barely come in handy.

Li Xingzhou organized them into three fires and elected the fire chief to take the lead.

It is divided into three shifts and night shifts to guard and take precautions.

Late at night, Lee Hang-ju called Park Kyung-tae to a secret place.

"You ride your horse at night and hurry to Bingzhou, and hand over this letter to Huan Yanfan in person!"

Lee Hang-ju put a written letter in a bamboo tube and sealed it with mud and handed it to Park Kyung-tae.

"Shanhou, I'm leaving, what are you going to do?"

Park Kyung-tae was in a hurry.

"These people are ostensibly convinced of you, but they may not be sincere! If there is a mess, won't it be over? ”
