Chapter 69: The Battle of Yanmen

The soldiers led by him were even more bloody, and they took a step forward and threw a head with a head piercing through the nose towards the nervous Xianbei man. That face was full of horror and reluctance.

"Even Dugu Diao is dead...... "Tanshi Huai's personal guard recognized the owner of the head and muttered incredulously.

Dugu Diao is a general under Su Li, who dominates various tribes in the east, and defeats the strongest warriors of many tribes such as Fuyu, Hao, and Qian one after another, and is quite brave and famous in Xianbei.

And today, he is a puddle of rotten meat and dies here.

"Humph! This can only be said that Su Li has no one under his command, and he can't even kill a cavalry of less than a thousand people, and I think he has nothing worth commanding the eastern Xianbei tribes. ”

"Spit mud, what do you say! Where is your share here! A strong man on the right angrily scolded the short, thick-legged general on the left.

Tanshi Huai glanced at the two leaders of the East and West who were standing in front of him and were silent.

The subordinates fought, but they didn't say a word, they were all leaders elected by the Xianbei side branch, and they were all masters of the moment, and they all had their own strengths.

At this time, their attitude seemed to have a tacit understanding, and Tanshi Huai had to be vigilant. x

Ding Yuan on the mountain also saw the group of knights, and could see that their horses had begun to gasp, and some of the swords in their hands had been damaged, and they had replaced them with inferior things from the enemy.

But they're back! In order to boost the morale of the Han army, which was already a little desperate!

Ding Yuan sighed with emotion: "I regret that I shouldn't have listened to Wen Yuan's advice......"

When they arrived near Yanmen County, Sima Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan in Ding Yuan's army admonished him: "Lord Assassin Shi, our army has been marching for nearly a day, and Tanma and others have set off from Hanoi County, and they have found traces of Xianbei's small army one after another, but so far we have not had a big battle with Xianbei, my lord, the front is dangerous and unpredictable, our army is still looking for a dangerous place to station and rest, and then rush to Yanmen tomorrow......"

Ding Yuan shook his head and refused: "Yanmen County guards three times a day messengers urgently report for help, Xianbei people attack again and again, now our army is only two hours away from Yanmen, grit your teeth, first rush to Yanmen for reinforcements!"

Zhang Liao persuaded bitterly: "Lord Assassin Shi, the Xianbei soldiers are besieging Yanmen, there are many doubts, not to mention whether they can capture Yanmen, why are most of the Yanmen messengers running dozens of miles to Hanoi for help intact?" The earliest scouts to come back were already half an hour ago. ”

Ding Yuan thought for a moment, or stubbornly chose to move forward, he had no choice, the distress letters from Yanmen crying blood were written more seriously than the other, if it really fell into a county, the court would definitely be furious.

Because although the Han Dynasty rebelled in all directions, but so far no county has been captured, if Ding Yuan lost Yanmen, but a "good start", waiting for Ding Yuan's lightest is also degraded to a concubine, the whole family is exiled.

Only by rushing to the city of Yanmen can he feel at ease.

After Zhang Liao persuaded Ding Yuan, who insisted on marching, to no avail, he sighed and arched his hand: "The last general is still uneasy in his heart, since Lord Assassin Shi still insists on marching, Wen Yuan invited himself to lead a thousand cavalry to hang the rear army far away, if the Xianbei people have a conspiracy as a whole, this plan may have a surprise effect!"

Ding Yuan actually thinks that Zhang Liao's analysis has some truth, and a thousand cavalry on the two wings doesn't seem to have any effect, and Zhang Liao's method can be regarded as a layer of insurance for the army of tens of thousands of people.

Ding Yuan patted the military Sima who was promoted to the county officials less than three months ago: "The old man knows that Wen Yuan's considerations are more old and seek the country, but he can't help himself in the rivers and lakes, go ahead, I hope nothing happens......"

Zhang Liao also replied: "Liao doesn't want to have an accident either......

Ding Yuan watched Zhang Liao go away with the herald to mobilize cavalry, was silent for a while, and then turned around and ordered: "Tell the whole army, you can see Yanmen in another hour, cheer up, don't relax, the current Xianbei is not what it used to be......"

"No!"

Yanmen County is located in the northwest of Dai County, Shanxi, and has always belonged to the frontier area of northwest wind and sand.

Although it is not as big as the wind and sand in the future, its temperate continental climate also makes the temperature difference between summer and winter, day and night in Yanmen large.

The soldiers walked on the road that was getting colder and colder, their hands and feet were cold, and the air was foggy, and the sweat from the previous rapid march was extremely cold, and the speed of the army was slowly slowing down.

The wind, sand, and cold made everyone's attention begin to loosen, and the defenses began to loosen.

"Put! The eyes of the Han soldiers in the front row of the collapsed ...... tightened, and the monstrous rain of arrows shot towards the Han army from the forest in front.

"Enemy attack!" The experienced veterans hurriedly lay down, and crawled under the grain cart with their shields on their backs, and shouted warnings, while the inexperienced recruits were all in a mess, some were shot into a hornet's nest, and some were rolling on the ground and wailing.

The Xianbei cavalry rushed in from all directions, cheering on their horses as they shot their bows and arrows at the Han army, which was still in chaos.

It is not seeking to inflict greater casualties, in order to delay the speed of the Han army's resistance.

"Don't mess up, don't mess up, form a formation! Push the grain cart to the front! Hold off their cavalry! ”

Ding Yuan's orders in the Chinese army are extremely correct, but the land of the former army has long become the hell of Shura, even if someone is willing to get up and push the grain cart, they are immediately shot dead on the spot!

"Chinese army! Shield soldiers fill in, hurry up and close the gap! ”

Ding Yuan's elite headquarters didn't say a word, and rushed forward against the rain of arrows. Pushing the grain cart one after another.

The veteran under the car also shook his teeth and rushed out of the car, holding his shield to resist the rain of arrows for those cart wrestlers.

Some people were shot through the neck by an arrow without saying a word, and fell down with a thud, and the people behind silently took the errand in his hand and continued to fall...... There will continue to be a replacement......

Blood stained this hard yellow earth.

The Xianbei cavalry rushed forward in a few breaths, and he rushed over with the frightened eyes of the Han soldiers.

Manpower was so small in front of the galloping animal power, the car was knocked away, and all the soldiers were knocked away.

The horse also broke its leg bone with a wail, fell to its knees, and the knight on the horse broke his neck.

The iron hooves galloped past again, and the wounded horse was trampled to death.

Rush, rush! The Xianbei people stepped on the front army, and went straight into the thin formation of the Chinese army, the unarmed archers who were still assembling bows and crossbows, and Ding Yuan under the handsome banner with an iron face.

"Kill!" A cavalry suddenly appeared from the right over the hillside, and rushed directly to kill, led by the general to pick a few Xianbei generals, but none of them had a combined enemy, like a drop of cold water from the side straight into this boiling oil pot, intercepting the Xianbei people's offensive!
