Chapter 100: Fierce Battle in the Narrow Valley

Tuoba Jiefen finally transferred the Xianbei army formation and led the front and middle troops to withdraw outside the valley. However, the price paid was huge, and only by colliding and trampling on each other, six or seven hundred soldiers were lost, and many people were directly turned into meat under the hooves of war horses. In addition, the Huns on both sides kept attacking, and arrows and rolling stones were smashed frantically. In just two quarters of an hour, the Xianbei sergeants suffered thousands of casualties.

After retreating to the middle of the mountain road, Tuoba Jiefen found that the Xianbei army behind him was still in chaos, and instead of following his order to withdraw outside the valley, he still rushed towards the valley, completely blocking Tuoba Jiefen's retreat.

With anger in his eyes, he twitched the leader of a small tribe in front of him, and asked, "Why don't you retreat yet!" ”

Enduring the severe pain on his face, the little leader pointed to the front and replied: "My lord, there is a Hun cavalry outside the pass that is attacking, blocking the way out of our army, the attack is fierce, the warriors can't resist it at all, and it has been dispersed!" ”

Attention was placed on the side of the pass, not far away, the sound of killing was in full swing, the screams were continuous, and from a distance, the Xianbei cavalry was constantly fluctuating in formation, obviously, the offensive of the Huns was very strong.

After carefully observing the situation at the front, the Xianbei people of the rear army had become a routed army, and they had no effect on counterattacking the outstanding passes. Thinking wildly, Tuoba Jiefen decisively ordered: "Order, let the people in front disperse on the path on both sides, give me a way out, we must fight back and rush out!" ”

On both sides of the narrow road, there are some narrower paths that lead somewhere! Some of the Xianbei Hou sergeants who were nearby were ordered to start pouring to the sides, immediately leaving some space for Tuoba Jiefen.

But more soldiers in front still rushed to Tuoba Jiefen's side, squeezing together, blocking Tuoba Jiefen again. These people, all from small tribes, only wanted to find a place where they thought they were safe, and turned a blind eye to Tuoba Jiefen's orders.

A fierce color flashed in the depths of his pupils, and Tuoba Jiefen immediately ordered the leader of Daxi beside him: "Charge me to lead the army, and remove all the obstacles in front of me!" ”

The leader of Daxi was a little surprised when he heard this, but in the face of Tuoba Jiefen's gaze that he wanted to eat people, he swallowed his saliva, and resolutely led people to attack forward, and all the Xianbei soldiers who were blocked along the way were killed.

After the attack of the Huns, and in the face of the ruthless slaughter of Tuoba Jiefen in front, the hot-headed Xianbei rebel army finally sobered up a little and obediently ran to the trails on both sides. The trail was narrow, and there was a crowded stampede, with many dead and wounded, and wailing incessantly.

Cleaning up all the way, a road was opened up by killing, and Tuoba Jiefen led the cavalry army dominated by the soldiers of the headquarters to follow and attack outward, approaching the pass.

Wan Qianjian's side is leading the guards to attack inward, all the way from the outside of the pass. With those Xianbei rear army who were almost a rabble, they couldn't resist the impact of the guards at all.

Under the leadership of Wan Qianjian, the guards ruthlessly stabbed the Xianbei people with a sharp knife, setting off a wave of attack, leaving a river of blood all the way.

The iron knife in his hand swung rapidly, and a Xianbei soldier who was blocking in front was immediately killed. Wan Qi's strength sank, a line of blood splattered, and the soldier's head flew up, turning a few times and landing on the ground. The same is true of the guards around him, stepping on the stirrups with their legs, wielding their swords with ease, and reaping their lives. In response to these Xianbei soldiers, the guards were completely slaughtered, and they went deep into it for a long time, and the impact was still undiminished.

Soon, Wan Qian Jin saw the movement of Tuoba Jiefen who suddenly came outward, and the two sides were only a dozen zhang apart, and there were more than 100 Xianbei rebels who were at a loss to follow in between. At this time, it was already possible to organize them together to attack the Huns. But Tuoba Jiefen was already crazy about killing, and his desire to kill was high, so he directly ordered to continue to solve the "obstacles" in front of him and rush towards the Huns.

Seeing Tuoba Jiefen's ruthlessness to "his own people", Wan Qijin was a little surprised in his heart, but then a little cruel smile hung on the corner of his mouth, when it came to ruthless killing, he was not weak. Leng Sheng said to the guards who had reorganized the assault formation: "Release the arrows!" ”

The work of the guards and soldiers was very fast, very uniform, and more than 200 people in front of them quickly put away their swords, held bows, mounted arrows, and controlled strings. After a "whoosh" sound of breaking the air, the Xianbei people in front of him instantly poured a large piece. After three rounds of shooting, there was no barrier between him and the soldiers of the Tuoba Division.

Ordered the soldiers to put away their strong bows, and with a clear sound, Wan Qijin rushed forward first. Tuoba Jiefen was a little stunned here, the speed of the Huns' movements frightened him, and the three rounds of arrow rain caused many casualties to the Tuoba warriors in front of him, and even his own arm was shot by stray arrows.

Enduring the severe pain, he wanted to order a counterattack with an arrow, but the guards in front of him had already rushed up. Somewhat helplessly, he ordered his subordinates to urge the horses to attack and launch an attack. But compared to the efficiency and speed of the guards, these Xianbei people were more than a step weaker, and they stabbed straight to meet the thunderous rush of the guards, like hitting a stone with an egg, and they were killed on their backs.

Tuoba Jiefen finally felt the pressure on the Xianbei rear army before. At a glance, there were not many Huns on the opposite side, but the combat power and equipment were so good that he couldn't help but gasp. The scimitars of the Xianbei people struck with their skulls, and many soldiers were directly killed by swords. What is reflected in Tuoba Jiefen's eyes is that the tribal warriors under his command need to pay three or four lives to injure a guard, and the direct battle loss ratio can reach one for seven.

urged the soldiers to attack with their lives, but the gap in hard power was too great, and the guards just steadily pressed and attacked, mechanically dancing their swords to kill and injure the Xianbei army.

Quietly, Tuoba Jiefen stepped back some distance and commanded in the rear. The strong combat effectiveness of this Hun made him jealous, and he did not dare to stand in front like before.

There were not many soldiers in direct confrontation between the two sides, compared to the rigor and stability of the guards, but the command of the Xianbei people was chaotic and the combat efficiency was extremely low. After holding on for a while, the guards were still attacking like a tide, as fierce as before, while the Xianbei people couldn't bear it, and the front line kept moving backwards.

After another period of time, the Xianbei people fighting in front could no longer withstand the huge pressure, and they broke backwards regardless of it, and once again dispersed the Xianbei army in the rear, and the Xianbei people fell into chaos once.

This collapse is the soldiers of Tuoba headquarters, many of whom are "elites" who have gone through a harsh winter killing, but in the face of the Huns, there is not much room for resistance, Tuoba Jiefen is very unwilling, and after unwillingness, it is fear.

In the face of the advance of the guards, pressing step by step, the Xianbei army was driven into the depths of the canyon without sheltering. Tuoba Jiefen was very helpless, and the crowd turned back, so he had to lead people to retreat towards the valley behind. There was another chaotic stampede, with many needless casualties.

Seeing that the Xianbei people retreated, the Huns pressed and kept up unhurriedly, in order to buy time for Tuoba Jiefen, the leader of Daxi was very decisive to lead people to counterattack the Huns. Wan Qian killed happily, seeing Da Xi's scimitar pointing directly at him, he smiled contemptuously, waved his knife to meet it, and with a roar of knife and iron, the scimitar in Da Xi's hand was directly knocked away, and the person was also forcefully taken off the horse. Seeing that he also had some courage, Wan Qijin said casually: "Tie up!" ”

Then the leader continued to chase after the Tuoba Jiefen army that Empress Cang had withdrawn.
