When Cheng Boxian led the army to the foot of a lonely mountain, he felt something in his heart and looked towards the lonely mountain.
This is a hill no more than 90 zhang high, abruptly towering on the flat wasteland within a radius of hundreds of miles, the warm spring breeze blows, and the earth is already green, so that Cheng Boxian can't see whether there are enemies hidden in the weeds and trees.
"Big brother, is there anything special about this mountain in front of you?"
Cheng Boli came on horseback and wondered why the eldest brother was staring at the hill in front of him, although this was the second hill they had seen since they set out on the expedition in the five days they had marched on this uninhabited wasteland.
Cheng Boxian retracted his gaze and said in a deep voice: "Maybe we should wait until winter arrives and everything withers, and it is more advantageous for our army to come to conquer the Funi people again." ”
"The area around Blackwater is not Middle-earth, and in winter, heavy snow falls, and the snow can reach knees, and it is difficult for even horses to walk, let alone a large army that goes out on an expedition?"
When Cui Yi passed by, he said quietly.
"Have we forgotten the sleigh invented by His Highness?"
Cheng Boheng on the side laughed, "The soldiers of the whole army are wearing sleds, do they still care how deep the snow is?" Maybe it's faster than we can walk. ”
"It's still the second brother thinks of Zhou ......"
"Whoosh......"
Before Cheng Boli finished speaking, he heard the sound of the arrow shooting, and the phantom flashed, and a guard next to him covered his throat that had been pierced by the arrow, and blood gushed out of his mouth, and he watched Cheng Boli unwillingly fall from the horse in horror.
"Enemy Attack ......"
Cui Yi pulled out his horizontal knife and roared at the marching army.
The arrows flew at the Tang army from the jungle and grass with a whooshing sound like locusts in flight, and more than 20 soldiers were killed by the unprotected necks and faces of the current court.
Cheng Boxian, who had been in battle for a long time, knew at a glance that the other party had arranged dozens of condor archers to hide in the shadows and kill them with one arrow.
"Quickly form a battle formation......"
Cheng Boxian roared again and again, usually after two or three rounds of arrows, the enemy will launch a charge, Nuo does not take two or three breaths to gather the marching army long snake formation into a rectangular battle formation to meet the enemy, by the enemy's impact, the army can be directly cut into several sections of mutual support.
"Second brother, you take the cavalry to protect the right flank, and the third brother stabilizes the left flank, and must not be broken through the formation by the enemy. The striker was handed over to Cui Yi. ”
"......"
Cheng Boheng and Cheng Boli led their horses away and gathered the army, and when Cui Yi heard the arrows fired, he galloped to the front and reorganized his infantry to meet the battle.
After the second round of arrows of the enemy army was fired, the soldiers and horses of the Funi who were ambushed in the jungle couldn't wait to kill them, and braved the arrows fired by the crossbowmen of the Tang army to counterattack, and launched a desperate charge against the Tang army that had not yet been collected.
"Meet the ......"
Cui Yi abandoned his war horse and roared with a horizontal knife, only to see that there were countless soldiers in front of him, wearing all kinds of animal skins and wearing fur hats, holding long knives and spears, and roaring like beasts, and rushing towards the Tang army's spear array without fear of death.
"Puff ......"
The two armies were close to each other, and the spears of the Tang army pierced one after another the Funi people who did not know what life and death were. The pikemen of the Tang army could not draw their spears in a hurry, and they were slashed by the swords of the Funi people who rushed up from behind, and some of them were bleeding like pillars, while some of them had their heads cut off.
In the face of more and more people rushing up, the Tang Army's forward gradually couldn't resist and retreated step by step.
Since the expedition, the Tang army has been on the road, and has not had a good rest, and today it has walked for nearly three hours, and lunch has not been eaten, and the breakfast eaten before dawn has long been digested in the stomach.
At this time, the Tang army can be said to be hungry and fighting hard with the Funi people, and it will inevitably be exhausted for a long time, and it will be difficult to support it.
The blood had already stained Cui Yi's battle armor red, and he waved the horizontal knife in his hand to slash and kill wantonly among the Funi people, and used his bravery to boost the morale of the declining army.
"Big brother, we are surrounded on all sides, and the enemy is all over the mountains."
The three hundred cavalry leading the Phoenix Guard rushed a few times among the Funies, but were driven back by the thousand cavalry Funie cavalry who rushed out of the hill not far away.
Cheng Boheng was slashed on his left arm, and ran to Cheng Boxian with his injured arm to complain.
Cheng Boxian, who was in the army, always led the sniper of the opponent's condor archers, almost dodged a few arrows, and then relied on the excellent Mingguang Mountain armor to resist the opponent's arrows.
With his chest and back, Cheng Boxian was shot with nine arrows stuck on the armor, not counting those who did not pierce the armor and fell to the ground, which surprised Cheng Boheng, who was running.
"Our army is surrounded by the Vanes?"
Cheng Boxian was stunned, "Could it be that all the soldiers and horses have come to us?" Sekigahara's Xuanwu Wei didn't play a bit of a diversion role? ”
"Big brother, we don't know what the situation of Xuanwuwei is, let's take advantage of the fact that the soldiers haven't exhausted their strength to break through quickly, otherwise the whole army will be wiped out here."
Cheng Boheng's face turned pale due to excessive blood loss, and he persuaded with a heavy heart.
"Okay, break out."
Cheng Boxian was extremely frustrated and ordered the whole army to break through to the south, so that the deputy of the second brother Cheng Boheng led the cavalry to match the rear Cui Yi after the army was broken, and the third brother Cheng Boli organized the sergeants to kill from the south.
After receiving the order, the various units of the Tang army in the battle turned in turn, approaching Cheng Boli, and the whole army pressed to the south, which greatly increased the pressure on the Funi people in the south, and gradually could not support it, and the gap was opened by the Tang army within a quarter of an hour.
At the top of the hill, Nuo Gejiao and his party, who were paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, saw that the Tang army was attacking southward, and gradually had the tendency to break out of the encirclement, and everyone changed.
Shangmuro Chengding shouted: "It's not good, the Tang army is going to flee to the south, and the distance to the south from the Heishui Governor's Mansion is shorter than the original way back, and it is extremely disadvantageous for us to not be able to completely annihilate us." I led the remaining 100 cavalry to intercept it. ”
Seeing that the Tang army was about to break through, Nuo Gejiao was very anxious, and when he heard that the upper room was determined to ask for direct consent, "Brother Shang, this battle must be successful." ”
Kamimuro nodded and mounted his horse to lead the remaining hundred cavalry guards towards the south of the battlefield.
Looking at the two armies that were tragically torn apart on the battlefield, the blood of the beast in the body of the horn was boiling, and after the upper room Chengding left, he could no longer sit still, and leading the battlefield in person was more pleasant than the words of the upper room Chengding, and the commander could not personally lead the battlefield adventure.

Tea is a kind of plant, which can be edible, detoxify, long and easy to be healthy, and have a long life.
Legend is that when Shennong boiled water in a kettle pot in the wild, there were just a few leaves floating into the pot, the boiled water, its color was slightly yellow, and it was found to drink Shengjin in the mouth to quench thirst and refresh the mind.
When he tasted the tea, he found that the tea flowed everywhere in the stomach, checked and checked, and washed the stomach and intestines cleanly, so Shennong called this plant "check", and then turned into the word "tea", and became the origin of tea.
