Chapter 64: The elite of the Gongsun family

Gongsun Du gave an order, and the three hundred cavalry guards behind him rushed out like wolves and tigers, and then in their eyes, the thieves in front of them were just the end of the strong crossbow, and the city was defeated and retreated and was pursued all the way to this point, and it would collapse with a slight blow, so they all took the lead bravely, and they were bound to take the head of the leader of the thieves.

However, they just use their own ideas to measure these foreigners, unlike the Han army, the foreigners have no concept of defending the city, they live on the grassland all the year round, the strongest buildings are just some fences or something, which one of the fights has what effect, they are all slashing and killing, and it has become their daily routine to flee if they can't fight, and the city is broken for them.

The two thousand foot thieves saw that there were only three hundred people on the other side and dared to confront them head-on, their hearts were full of contempt, the number of people has always been the measure of strength, in the face of an enemy ten times less than their own, in their eyes they were not even sheep, the rabbits who could be slaughtered, one by one howled and danced with their scimitars and rushed to the front of the cavalry guards.

Gongsun Yan's three hundred cavalry guards, if anyone sees them as ordinary sergeants, I am afraid it is a big mistake, in that era, the duty of the guards is to protect the safety of the commander, their combat effectiveness is definitely the first of the whole army, and the determination to serve the death must not have any hesitation at all, as long as they rush to kill, it is the two sides swear to death.

Both sides have a major miscalculation of the enemy's estimates, this battle suddenly became tragic, to compare the absolute strength of the two sides must be stronger foreigners, itself is to wait for work, more superior and powerful, under normal circumstances, there is no reason for defeat, but when it comes to personal strength, it is not on the same level.

Gongsun Yan's cavalry guards are all composed of elite people from one out of ten, more years of cooperation, skilled martial arts, everyone can take charge of their own affairs, to talk about one-on-one, a cavalry guard to deal with a foreign thief should be effortless.

The frontal collision was particularly tragic, the cavalry guard just made the thief pay a heavy price with just a charge, only to see everyone with a knife in their hands, cutting wheat and harvesting the thief's head, the bright red blood column continued to rise, followed by frightened eyes, weak legs, this is the elite of the Great Khan? He was ten times the enemy, and he was killed without the slightest power to fight back.

However, the numerical advantage still made them hold up the courage to continue fighting, because they knew that the big leader was behind them, unlike other tribes, the big leader was no worse than the big Han in governing the army, and if there was no order, those who dared to flee from the battle would die, so no one dared to retreat if they were not really forced to do so.

Batuo suddenly stood behind the formation and watched the two sides fight, his brows couldn't help frowning, he didn't expect the soldiers brought by the enemy general to be so brave, he set up an ambush earlier just to catch him off guard, or was rushed to pieces, if he hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid he would be the first to escape at this time.

Helplessly, he shook his head and knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and if he waited any longer, his foot soldiers collapsed before the killer weapon was used, and he waved his hand and shouted, "The cavalry outflanked me left and right, and it is bound to break the enemy's formation for me, otherwise you and I will all die here, rush me."

"Pull the ~~~~~", "pull the ~~~~~~~~ and drag" a thousand people shouted loudly, shouted the slogan of the charge, and the whole thousand cavalry rushed out of the old Huanglin on the left and right, and went straight to the left and right wings of the Gongsun cavalry guard to kill it.

Gongsun Du was watching his soldiers harvest the lives of the enemy in a relaxed manner, and thought to himself, "Such remnants dare to set up an ambush for me, and in the face of absolute strength, such an ambush can only be broken by a slight attack."

When he was complacent, he suddenly saw the shouting of killing in the stone forest behind, although he couldn't hear what they were shouting, but from the enemy who rushed out, it could be seen that they were really moving this time, the two teams of cavalry seemed to be loose, but everyone was brave and no one was left behind, and the two torrents rushed towards the side of their cavalry guards.

"It's not good, if the formation is disrupted, no matter how brave the sergeant is, he will be annihilated in the sea of people" Gongsun Du is not stupid, he is a good general, and his grasp of the front of the battle is still relatively in place, and he hurriedly shouted in his heart, "Give me an order, quickly withdraw and wait for the battle."

The order was passed on, but it was not so easy to withdraw, the three hundred cavalry guards were dragged by the two thousand foot soldiers, not to say that they could turn around and leave if they wanted to, plus the two wings were even more chaotic, and no matter how elite the sergeant could not help but panic in his heart.

"Kill, kill the enemy today, it is necessary to protect the general to evacuate" This is a hundred people will shout, absolute loyalty enables him to allow defeat, but he must not tolerate any threat to the head of the family, and he does not turn around when he gives an order, and the three hundred cavalry guards are neatly aligned and burst out from the front.

In an instant, stumps and broken arms came one after another, blood splattered ** sideways, a battle paved with life was unfolding, and the three hundred cavalry guards were no longer as injured as they were at the beginning, and they had to choose whether to sacrifice their arms or thighs or even their lives at the necessary moments, so that their comrades could rush out of this encirclement.

Gongsun Du's eyes were full of anger, the elite cultivated by these fathers was the foundation of his Gongsun family, and many of them were his uncles, in such a battle that seemed to him to be not difficult at all, he suffered such heavy losses, which he could never accept, screaming and wanting to rush up to fight, but the family next to him grabbed him desperately and shouted, "Major General, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, you should withdraw quickly, we will cut off the queen for you."

Gongsun Du glanced at the person who spoke, this was Liu Yi, one of his three generals, who was not much different in age from him, and his martial arts were not below him, so saying this was tantamount to sacrificing his own plans.

"No, now the soldiers are fighting bravely to kill the enemy, I must not leave them, give me the horn, I will blow the battle horn" stretched out his hand and took the battle horn from the hand of the sergeant next to him, which is only used to convey some orders in the battle, and it can also boost morale in critical moments.

Gongsun Du blew the horn, this rhythm is to say that the general and the soldiers are together, life and death are inseparable, as soon as the horn sounded, the cavalry guards in front of them were suddenly shocked, and the fatigue of fighting for a long time was swept away, and one by one they immediately roared energetically.

"Rush, the young general didn't leave us, we can't disappoint him, rush out for me, for the sake of Gongsun" The hundred people will shout, the three hundred cavalry guards are like a wounded tiger, and the hundred horsemen who rushed in front are like an arrow that broke through the enemy's encirclement in an instant, and circled around the enemy's position, and made a detour towards Gongsun Du.

"Rushed out of the young general, we can go and pick them up," another general, Yang Yi, was overjoyed and hurriedly shouted.

"Follow me, this battle is over, the whole army will return to the city" Gongsun Du ordered the next horse to rush out first, and the hundred and ten guards around him followed closely.

The men and horses on both sides converged in an instant, and the order reached the crowd, and under the arrow of Gongsun Du, they ran towards Chiwan Pass, leaving countless corpses and stumps on the ground, and the blood had already dyed the vicinity bright red.

Batuotu stood in front of the stone wall and looked at the low wreckage, his heart was shocked and angry, he ambushed in the old yellow forest with three thousand people, in the case of forming an encirclement, he still asked the enemy to break through the encirclement and flee, and the grassland has not fought such a defeat for many years, even if it is the battle of Chi Wanguan, it is just a rout under the scattering of the army's heart, and the real number of casualties after the consolidation is not much, but this time he is really defeated and has nothing to say, for a moment he really has the idea of rushing out to take the head of the enemy general, But the long-term calmness still made him suppress this thought.

"Big Boss, shall we go back?" The general next to him asked cautiously, in anyone's opinion, this is not a victory, and I don't know what the big boss thinks now, so don't anger him.

Batuotu sighed and asked slowly, "How is it?" ”。

"Back to the big leader, the infantry has lost 800 dead and wounded, and the cavalry has also wounded more than 200," replied cautiously while looking at Batuotu's face.

"One-third, such a loss is the first time since I became a big leader, which tells me to go back and how to face my clansmen... Ba Tutu didn't dare to imagine, when he set out on the expedition, he was full of ambition, thinking about occupying Chi Wan, uniting with Zang Ba, with his cavalry across the grassland, plus Zang Ba's elite foot soldiers, it would not be difficult to seize a state and county at that time, and when his own people moved to the mainland, they could live a good life, but they didn't expect that only 300 people could defeat themselves, didn't they think about it before?

"Big boss, don't the Han people have a saying about victory or defeat, this time we can still come back after three or five years of cultivation," the general comforted.

Ba Tutu looked at him, "Is victory and defeat a common thing in soldiers?" Yes, that's right, as long as the foundation is still in place sooner or later, we will go back to rectify the people."

Everyone cleaned up the stumps and dead corpses everywhere, since the blood stains will dissipate over time, Batuotu slowly retreated to the depths of the grassland with a group of remnants, this dispatch can only be said to have ended in a fiasco, which also told him that the city of the Han Dynasty is not to be taken away, and the soldiers of the Han Dynasty are not weak and deceitful, and they can only reap the consequences of their whims, it seems that what they have learned is still far from enough, and the training of the soldiers is still too far away, not to mention that there are still a few clans in the depths of the grassland that are staring at themselves, The slightest negligence will be annihilated.

He really thought well, at this time, a large tribe has been eyeing him, and when he goes back, I am afraid that it will be another vicious battle, but this is no longer the business of Bai Cang and others, at this time, Bai Cang and others got the news that Gongsun Du was defeated in pursuit of the thieves, and he was bowing his head in the city lord's mansion to apologize.
