Chapter 568: Risking Your Life

In Ganzhou City, a round of siege battles has ended.

Because of the existence of the outpost, the Xia army did not dare to attack the city on a large scale. But in a short period of time, the outpost, which was defended like a turtle's shell, was not so easy to overcome. Therefore, the strength of the Xia army was contained, and the threat to Ganzhou City was greatly weakened.

At this moment, the Zhangjiawo outpost in the southeast of Ganzhou City, Ali. Hillred was standing on a high platform in the courtyard. There were more than 2,000 soldiers and horses below, standing in twenty columns, crowding the courtyard with a large area.

After taking refuge in Khorasan, he and Ali. The Syl-Ude brothers dismissed their subordinates and served as idle posts in the United Front Work Department.

I thought it would be impossible to go to the battlefield again, but I didn't want to get the opportunity to lead an army alone again this year. It's just that he doesn't have the luck of his younger brother Ali Shirwud, and before he captured Ganzhou, he made great achievements by conquering Suzhou City.

This makes him a brother who not only has face, but also has a lot of pressure.

Now he was ordered to garrison the outpost in order to cooperate with the Khorasan army's counterattack in the coming day, which can be regarded as an opportunity for meritorious service. But the Xia army was like a dark cloud crushing the city, besieging the southeast two sides. Five or six outposts with garrisons were staggered between the Xia army camps, basically cutting off the retreat route back to the city.

Therefore, some of the soldiers who stayed behind couldn't help but be afraid. The generals below were also somewhat uneasy. Ali Hirrid summoned them together with the intention of encouraging and improving morale.

"Yesterday I heard a complaint that the Great Diwan had left us outside the city to die!" As soon as he said this, the people below looked at me and I looked at you, with different faces.

Ali Hilred observed the performance of the people below him, and continued, "I'm here today to make it clear to you!" The Great Diwan let us stay outside the city because he looked up to us, treated us well, and deliberately promoted us. ”。

Seeing that the soldiers on the field had regained their composure, Ali Hirrid continued: "Since the establishment of the Khorasan army, you have never heard of Khorasan being defeated. This time, there is also the lord of the country, what else do we have to worry about!

Whoever is our enemy, we can just fight!

Don't look at our retreat now, I tell you, this is an illusion made up by the Great Diwan. ”。

Speaking of this, the soldiers below were puzzled.

Ali Hilrid pressed his hand down, and the bustle quickly faded away.

"You think! What kind of virtue is Xia Jun! Let's attack the four states of Shagua and Gansu, and the Xia people will lose their armor all the way, and they will only be the turtle with a shrunken head. Now that I've finally recovered some of my spirits, I want to fight to the death with us.

You say, if you beat them so that their parents don't know each other, then the land of Xia Kingdom and several states will be captured! ”。

As soon as he said this, the soldiers' expressions really improved a lot. Even if there are still doubts in people's hearts, they are infected by the positive attitude of most soldiers. The morale of such a low level has also risen a lot.

But Ali Hilrid was not as optimistic as everyone else!

Because he knew that this time Khorasan stopped in Ganzhou and withdrew his troops back to the city, which was really helpless. Leaving them here is also a risk.

If it weren't for the war horse's illness, Xia Jun would have been arrogant now. Now the deliberate gesture of retreating is nothing more than a smoke bomb released by Khorasan. So that the Xia army outside the city could not see the details of Khorasan, so they were suspicious and did not dare to attack the city on a large scale.

The Zhangjiawo outpost is located on a small hill, surrounded by woods and muddy land, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it has become one of the smoke bombs released by Khorasan.

Before retreating, Ali Hilrid also received orders from the Great Diwan. After holding out for six days, he withdrew to the city while the Khorasan army was out of the city to kill the enemy.

In this case, it is definitely risky.

Because Xia Jun also kept a close eye on the outpost, even if he was negligent due to chaos at that time, he would react quickly. What's more, the war horses under them were all taken back to Ganzhou City a few days ago. It was also at that time that the war horse showed signs of illness, so in order to avoid the soldiers from detecting the impact on morale, this decision was made.

This made the soldiers only use their legs to rush back to the city, which was not as fast as the cavalry of the Xia army. If there is a pursuit, then the soldiers will be more than lucky.

Ali Hilred knew the dangers, so he didn't care much about retreating.

At the same time, two miles northwest of Zhangjiawo, a group of Xia soldiers were escorting a group of prisoners.

"Vice, isn't it too risky for us to do this?" , a Khorasan captive said to Dospa, who was dressed in the armor of the Xia army.

"Risking what? The captain and his brothers put themselves in danger in order to save us, and we, as brothers, naturally want to rescue them back. Dosbah's face that deliberately wiped the ashes of the pot could not be seen from the original appearance, and responded.

"But can we get in like this?" , Although he changed into Xia Ren's clothes, his face was also covered. But at the thought of being exposed, they couldn't help but be afraid.

"Afraid of what? I didn't listen to the instructor! The soldiers of the Xia people were not all party items and Han people, as well as young people such as Huihe and Tubo. Tubo didn't mention it, let's just say that the crane, although there is a difference between the appearance and ours, it is not much different. We can also talk about Huihe, and when the time comes, we will be sure that we are Huihe people. Dosbah reassured.

Now that the war is imminent, I think that the Xia army's thoughts are all on Ganzhou City. I don't look so carefully at the soldiers and horses below. As long as they are careful, it is still easy for them to get in.

Of course, Dosba also knows the danger, but don't the army say that wealth and wealth are sought in danger! Today, he will also block it, and he will admit whether he is dead or alive!

Outside the camp of the Xia army, Dosba reported the name of the troops and his own name in jerky Chinese.

"Huh?" , the defenders immediately became suspicious of Dospa.

"I fled from Huihe, not long after I joined the army, this Han dialect is not good." , Dospar explained with a smile. There were also other teenagers who spoke well in Chinese to help them speak, which made the defenders' suspicions dissipate a lot.

After dealing with the identity credentials they got from the Xia people, there were no mistakes before letting them into the camp. Dosba secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and under the leadership of Xia Jun, he sent the captives to the prisoner camp.

The treatment of the captives in this era was not as good as that of later generations, and the prisoner camp where Dospa and the others went was a horse farm with a large area. Many horses ate fodder there, and the captives wore shackles, combing and feeding the horses as if they were serving their masters.

The number is not large, only two or three hundred. All the Khorasan soldiers who did not evacuate in time during the retreat were captured and sent here. Dospah and the other teenagers looked around, looking for familiar figures.
