Chapter 302: Battle Huaibei Eleven

The silver-edged knife of fine makeup lightly wiped the opponent's neck, and a large ball of blood splattered into a fan-shaped surface, and the last enemy soldier who rushed into the queue was settled.

Xin Jiaxuan's expression was a little stiff, and he touched the blood on his face, only to feel that his mouth and nose were full of salty smell, and his breathing became heavy.

This is what it feels like to kill the enemy with your own hands, and it has been a long time since the last time in order to protect Ah Ni and cooperate with that kidnapper to kill those kidnappers who entered the Dragon Bird Garden.

His body trembled slightly, but he felt as if the blood in his body was about to boil. He didn't know it, of course, it was just an adrenaline rush.

A regiment of guncorps and a semi-auxiliary brigade were gathered together, and when the enemy's situation was unknown, they naturally formed a large hollow formation of long soldiers in front and short troops in front and behind them, with firearms bows and crossbows in the center, to resist the surging enemy to the death, and then use one volley after another to weaken and kill them layer by layer like peeling an onion.

Then the stragglers did the same, forming several small battle formations around the large array that covered each other, and finally stabilized their positions.

But the next wave of the enemy's offensive is already on the horizon,

These soldiers, dressed in brown cloth robes and black patent leather armor, almost one after another, crashed into the outer jungle of spears like cannon stones, and they rubbed sideways past the tips of their spears with shoulder-high cards, and immediately pushed the dense array and tore several gaps.

Angle Formation?. I saw the enemy soldiers with broad-bladed heavy swords, swarming in with the weather, slashing out patches of blood and stumps head-on, and then the white soldiers who were bowing down under the anchors slashed forward in pieces, slashing at their ankles and waists that lacked protection.

Some of the spearmen who had had their tips cut off also gave up their long poles, drew their long swords back, and jumped up and stabbed the enemy soldiers head-on and throat with the long poles pressed diagonally against their bodies, matching the attacks of the white soldiers from the top of the road.

When the other enemy soldiers with short spears on their backs approached, they threw a blanket almost at the same time, and the upright clump of spears was suddenly lowered, and many of the leading soldiers and spearmen were nailed to the ground, groaning in pain and unable to get up again.

The rest of the spearmen retreated a few steps in the order before they regrouped into a group and moved forward again, covering the outstanding remnants of the white soldiers, and retreated back into the formation.

Then they also paid the price, in the sweep of the projectile, covered their chests and fell to the ground, threw spears without strength, and even stuck on their own people at close range, bringing a lot of accidental injuries.

After repelling the incoming enemy again, Xin Jiaxuan also used the nearby mirror to see clearly the flag of the incoming enemy, which was a uniquely shaped horn flag and a black yak tail flag.

"Qingtang Yicong? , Wu Wu Tibetan Soldiers"

A description popped up in his head.

As one of the seasonings in the troubled times of a hundred years, it is undoubtedly these mercenaries of all races, among which there are many more famous, with Qingtang Yicong, the most representative.

They mainly come from the short-lived hometown of the Tubo Dynasty hundreds of years ago, between Qinghai and Tibet, when the plateau was majestic, at its peak it had five Ru and sixteen domains, and the Tubo Dynasty of sixty-one Dongdai, under the iron hooves of the sage Liang Gong's commander to counterattack the army, disintegrated the interest, poured like a Fei powder,

The Tang people occupied the most fertile and beautiful place in the Qiangtang-Xihai Valley, and after setting up the Qingtang Metropolitan Protectorate, they also supported a number of pro-vassal local governments on the ruins of the Tubo homeland.

Then there is the land of Tibet, the descendants of the various ethnic groups who were conquered by Tubo in the past, the front of the mountain, take the opportunity to stand on their own, please be a vassal vassal of the above table, and there are the eight countries of Xishan and Lushui Qiang that were once vassals of Tubo and turned to the Tang Dynasty, so the land of Qingtang has been inherited to this day with the large and small surnames of the vassals.

As the saying goes, the most active in cutting the grass and eradicating the roots are these traitors and lackeys, who have fled to the birthplace of Yalong through their efforts for generations, and the Tubo royal family, the Sibuye clan, who survived for a long time, were not spared, and were almost exterminated under the siege of their generations.

Except for a mud bhara concubine who was close to the country of Ni Bo and was shaded by it, claiming to be the last Zampu, who left a posthumous child and founded the small dynasty of Guge, all kinds of relics and traces of the Tubo homeland have disappeared.

It's just that Qingtang is located on the plateau, most of the areas have a bitter cold climate and barren land, and there are many disasters all year round, and there are not many outstanding products, and only a few big clans can rely on the transit from the Eastern Tianzhu or the Western Regions trade routes, and make huge profits.

The people who can survive in this environment are extremely tenacious and strong, and these tribes also fight and kill each other for survival resources, so as long as the men who can survive to adulthood have the ability to bow and sabre guns.

Therefore, under the difficult rule of daily livelihood, middle-aged men went out in groups to sell themselves into the army, which became a big way out for the local Tu people, on the one hand, it can reduce the pressure of population growth, and on the other hand, it can bring a lot of benefits to those large and small chiefs, chiefs, and leaders.

Among them, it is also the land of the four great warriors, the most famous, known for hard-working, perseverance, and forgetting death, and it is also one of the first choices for the feudal soldiers recruited from all the feudal towns in the Central Plains.

One of them is this Aliqudi, which is said to have been one of the sources of the Tibetan Praetorian Guard "Xue Nuo Kib" hundreds of years ago. But after so many years, there is only a group of battlefield hyenas left who are running for their lives for the war.

As a typical highland disciple, he once fought with the Dangxiang people in Jingbian Town, Qilian Mountain, and also competed with the Huangtou Uighurs in the Jiuyuan of Hequ,......

In the end, his clan corps came to Guannei, as a part of the Western Army's borrowed troops to help the war, and participated in the battle for the towns in the Guannei, which was seven or eight years, and then in the Tongguan Capture War, his department took the lead in ascending the city to make the first contribution, and Menghe Dongyan made Jun valued, and promoted him as a Yaqian official, a tooth general, a front general, and a soldier. The deputy guard captured all the way up, and finally led the "Tuojie" army mixed by the Han and Han warriors, and became one of the famous "five beasts" among the generals of Hedong Yanbian.

Now, the vanguard general of Hedong to aid the Huaibei battlefield can be called a vassal general who has experienced a hundred battles and has rich experience.

It's just that he was a little dissatisfied that he led the Han soldiers along the border who rode eight thousand steps, but they were actually blocked on the border of this millistate, and the other party was still fighting and retreating, trying to turn into a preset victory and defense terrain.

He turned his head with a calm face and explained, and then the flag officer who followed him waved a flag, and a full infantry brigade behind him, under the leadership of the Qianhu officer, slowly moved forward past his own team, and included those enemies who blocked the road in the field into the firing range.

I saw countless white feathers flying away, and they covered the top of the enemy and me as thin as rain, and in the piled up human array, the splashes of each other were densely bloody, and after three rounds of warp shots, several battle formations gathered on the outer side and on both wings were unbearable and dispersed.

But the large array in the center, although it had become much thinner, was still only guarding its feet, as if those comrades who had fallen from the arrows and died and were wounded and groaned, did not have much impact on them, and even shrunk their formations at the same time, they launched a round of reverse assault.

With a stride forward and several rounds of alternating thrusts, the enemy who has been killed by friendly forces and fallen into confusion and frustration will be pushed and stabbed in all directions.

"Don't mess around,"

"It's right to hold your foot......"

"There is no way to survive by leaving the enemy behind......"

"It's the master who is going to die against the enemy's sword and gun......"

All kinds of mutually encouraging voices are staggered and undulating in the shrinking circular array. Then the soldiers who still had some strength left were exchanged to the front and continued to stride forward, covering the guns to bring the infantry teams that were gradually exposed in front of the formation into the scope of the firearms.

And these archers, who were carrying large bows for a short pause, barely saw where the enemy was coming from, and were caught off guard by a group of swarms of bullets, and let out some kind of terrible screams.

"Shoot ...... on your own" "Give me ...... to overwhelm them"

The Qianhu official, who didn't expect to be attacked unexpectedly, almost roared angrily with a leather whip and a knife handle, slapping and driving the people around him, so that they could quickly counterattack.

Then with a thud, his head suddenly shattered, and his body was still under the inertia of movement, and after a few convulsions, he fell straight into the dust.

With the fall of the commander, those archers who were not good for close combat also lost their fighting spirit, and immediately dragged their bows and scattered and fled in the direction of their own team. "Damn ......"

Dong Huting shouted angrily, this broke the horsewhip.

Three successive attacks have been beaten back, and those reorganized troops have lost some of their sharpness, after all, the headquarters has come from a long journey, and fatigue and sluggishness have appeared on their faces.

"Pro-cavalry, follow me to break away from the enemy's ......"

With Dong Huting's shouting and shouting.

Hundreds of guards cavalry in scale armor or half-body armor sprinted at a short trot, and those hollow rings that had been somewhat deformed from front to back were raised high and diagonally downwards with thick-backed machetes and stubby mounted spears.

In the opponent's array, there was once again a burst of fire and smoke, and those humbling invisible deaths flew in front of these cavalrymen again, but the effect was really not very good.

Only a few riders and horses tumbled to the ground with blood splashing on their chests, and were trampled and leaped by, only a little ripple in the rush of the sprint.

Suddenly, some black objects, across the parabola, were thrown on the ground where they were galloping, and after being dodged lightly, they couldn't help but let out a mocking roar.

Then there was a few bangs and splashes of earth like rain, and they were galloping in the rush, as if the middle section had been opened, and suddenly many figures were startled off their horses, or kicked and neighed in place, so that the following cavalry also appeared a little confused. They had to instinctively divert the two ends of the road, trying to get past the dangerous area where the convulsions were taking place.

And by this time, the front end of the cavalry, which had already rushed past, had rushed to the much sparse jungle of spear tips in front of the formation, and they were almost delicately holding the reins, and the terrified mounts of the manipulators were compared to the stabs, and the fierce slamming and trampling on their bodies, knocking and kicking the stubbornly resisting spearmen from close quarters.

This is also their best tactic, like the tip of a knife stirring in a wound, the cavalry that breaks into the crowd in three or five, condescendingly brandishing their weapons, and disturbing the scattered and scattered formations that have struggled to maintain them.

Directly exposed to the long-barreled soldiers behind them, they had already loaded their bayonets with almost resolute expressions, and then struck the flint at the enemy cavalry with obvious targets, and swept them off their horses like dead leaves with a thudding sound.

At this time, the interrupted second wave of cavalry also rushed in front of them, and then they collided with bayonets like this, and after being poked down by dozens of horsemen by the oncoming stabbing air, these gunners also had to fall into desperate hand-to-hand combat, and from time to time someone knocked down, and then trampled under their feet.

The spearmen had already been lost, and the remnants of the men, with bayonets and a small circle of white soldiers, were slowly reduced by the slashing and stabbing of the cavalry who rushed on them, and the enemy cavalry even began to slow down their offensive and run around them, slowly dragging them down and trying to capture them with close quarters tactics and occasional surprise movements.

And in the rolling dust, the enemy's infantry brigade had already caught up again, and slowly put down the guards who were already stiff in front of them, and the blood stains were solidified on the corners of their mouths, this time even Xin Jiaxuan, whose face was blackened, couldn't help but show a hopeless expression......

"Military deputy and peace of mind ......"

The third brigade of auxiliary soldiers with a hoarse voice said in a low voice.

"I'll take someone to wait for the opportunity to rush......"

"Cover your way out of the chaos from the other side......"

"If you can run a few out, it's a few."

Xin Jiaxuan smiled bitterly, under the eyes of these many enemy horses, how could they talk about running out, but he couldn't help but didn't open his mouth to refute.

"...... Ani"

He tried to touch the texture of the piece of paper in his arms with his aching and convulsing hands, and although it was already soaked in blood, it was slippery, but at least I fulfilled my vow to be shrouded in horse leather.

Suddenly, a roar exploded in the enemy's infantry, raising several large clouds of black smoke and debris, turning their bombers on their backs, and even the cavalry that was surrounding the wandering horses could not help but be surprised that their horses raised their hooves high or scurried forward, and suddenly dispersed a lot.

Then they found out that the blow was from a few projectiles on the Xiaoshan bag not far away, and those figures who were operating sent out several black projectiles again, scattered among the infantry teams who were in a hurry to avoid, and once again lifted a few unlucky ghosts.

Then Dong Huting, who didn't need to press the formation at all, gave another order, and a few of those pro-cavalry teams were divided and rushed towards the mountain bag, and then there were a few more shocks, and these cavalry suddenly seemed to be overturned by an invisible wave of qi, and they were planted head-on under the hillside covered in blood.

At this time, Dong Huting found that from the mountain bag to the edge of the main road, there had been a long line of troops marching in formation, they were like a torrent flooding the hillside, and the black pressure of the soldiers spread over, and then a large area of gray smoke suddenly appeared among them, and some of them gathered into a thin mist shrouded in the sky.

It was like the echo of some kind of electric light, and the dense screams and wails quickly spread in Dong Huting's infantry with the blooming blood flowers.
