Eighty-three White Horse Village
As soon as Li Jingye's scouts entered the periphery of the White Horse Village, they found the scouts released by the Maitreya rebels, Li Jingye's scouts were by no means comparable to the miscellaneous cards of the Maitreya Sect in terms of equipment and battle formation skills, as soon as they saw each other's scouts, they immediately took off the short crossbow they were carrying behind them, and activated the crossbow arrows while advancing rapidly. As a result, the Maitreya scouts were shot dead on the spot, and one escaped with an arrow.
Li Jingye received the news from the scout, and immediately concluded that the prisoners of war were not lying, and the leader of the Maitreya Sect must be hiding in Baima Village, and he ordered the whole army to march quickly, and surrounded the main intersection leading to the outside of Baima Village at the first time.
Li Jingye is not as soft-hearted as Di Feng, after the archer's test firing, Li Jingye ordered the archer to fire a volley of rockets, as for whether there is really a Maitreya rebellion in the White Horse Village, he doesn't think about it at all.
The arrows were dipped in fire oil, burning and flying to the White Horse Village, the barbarian houses in the White Horse Village were all built of bamboo, and when they encountered the rocket, they suddenly caught fire, and the barbarian women and children in the village rushed out of the house crying and shouting, and crowded together in the village.
There was originally a lot of open space in the village, but after living in Jicheng's more than 400 people, it became crowded, and now the fire, coupled with the chaos of the Baima Zhai people, let the chaotic army and the barbarians in the village mix together for a while, and it is difficult for people to form a battle formation and implement effective defense.
After the second wave of armor-piercing arrows, there were already dead and wounded in the White Horse Village, and Ji Cheng saw that his soldiers and horses were blocked by the panicked barbarians, women and children and could not assemble, and he was impatient and ordered to his own soldiers, "Cut down these barbarians who are in the way!" ”
After receiving the order, the soldiers rushed to the crowded crowd without hesitation. The sword fell in hand, and several barbarian women and children were cut down to the ground in an instant.
Xie Sanmu came out and was beckoning his clansmen to go up to the gate to cooperate with Ji Cheng's defense, when he heard the shouting, he turned around and saw several women and children in the clan who had been ordered by Ji Cheng to cut off their heads, including his niece. He suddenly burst into tears, and yelled, "I'm a **** ancestor!" ", and then took the door of the village and stopped guarding, and reflexively killed Ji Cheng's personal soldiers.
Seeing his own people fighting together, Ji Cheng was stunned, he was also experienced in battle for a long time, and he knew that he had to be ruthless on the battlefield. To deal with chaos, it is natural to use bloody means to deter them, but he ignores the particularity of the difference between the barbarians and the Han people in the Central Plains, and the residents in Baima Village are all surnamed Xie. A village is a family, and there is no one who is not related to each other.
If you are in a town outside the mountain, killing a person will have a deterrent effect, but killing one in Baima Village will attract a siege by barbarians. Not to mention that Ji Cheng ordered his own soldiers to cut down several women and children in a row.
Barbarians are already fierce. Now with red eyes and brandishing a hook knife, he rushed into the ranks of the rebels desperately, although there were only eighty or ninety people, but they were also killed, and the Ji Cheng tribes scattered and fled.
After Ji Cheng, who was distracted for a moment, reacted, he hurriedly shouted, "Brother Miki, stop it, this is a misunderstanding, stop it!" ”
"**** mother's misunderstanding! Lao Tzu already knew that you didn't have a good heart! Xie Sanmu didn't stop Ji Cheng to explain at all, the facts were right in front of him, and there was nothing to explain. He replied, and with a single sword, he knocked down a Maitreya rebel in front of him.
Ji Cheng's shouts failed to stop Xie Sanmu's revenge. attracted Li Jingye's attention.
Li Jingye was immediately watching the layout of the White Horse Village and the distribution of the chaotic army, hearing Ji Cheng's shout, he looked around, only to see a middle-aged man wearing plate armor and missing his left arm was greeting the leader of the barbarians, this person was too conspicuous compared to those rebels with only simple armor, so that Li Jingye couldn't help but think of the leader Ji Cheng that the prisoners of war said, and secretly said in his heart, "I'd rather kill the wrong one than let it go, since you are the leader who shoots it first."
Thinking of this, Li Jingye pointed at Ji Cheng and said to the archer: "Aim at this person, two arrows in a volley."
Ji Cheng was about to explain to Xie Sanmu, after all, the intersection outside the stockade was blocked by the border guards, and if he wanted to escape, he had to rely on Xie Sanmu to lead the way into the depths of the mountains behind the stockade. But before he could shout his words, he instinctively felt the danger coming, which was an instinct that had been practiced after a long battle.
He hurriedly dodged behind a personal soldier, and at the same time glanced at it from the corner of his eye, only to see a "dark cloud" covering him, "This is a rain of arrows!" Ji Cheng's heart is not good, but it is too late to find cover and hide.
Nearly a hundred archers fired a volley at one person, how could it be resisted by manpower, after the buzzing strings, Ji Cheng and the soldiers in front of him were shot into "hedgehogs", the two were full of arrows, the person was dead, but the body was still standing.
The fire in Baima Village brought up billowing smoke, in Zhaojiazhai in West Baima, Zhao Ashi saw the smoke, estimated the distance and concluded that Xie Jiazhai was in trouble, and now Maitreya has received a notice from Di Feng to send people, and he had the intention to take people to Xinning to help Di Feng, plus he was not in agreement with the Xie family, Zhao Ashi saw that there was smoke rising in East Baima and immediately organized manpower, and went straight to Xie Jiazhai in East Baima.
The battle of Baimazhai was nearing the end, Ji Cheng was killed, and the people of the Maitreya Sect were suddenly in chaos, and then they were chased by Xie Sanmu and fled into the mountains.
This made Li Jingye take advantage of it in vain, he is now just taking his subordinates to easily enter Xie's village, mending the knives to those who are injured but not dead, and then arresting those stragglers and barbarian women and children who fled in all directions.
Each of the border guards had a cowhide rope on his body, and when he saw the living, he tied it up, and when he saw the dead, he cut off his head and hung it around his waist.
Xie Sanmu is now full of remorse, Xie Jiazhai is finished, he can't tell who to deal with, the border guards of the imperial court are arresting their own people, and the rebellious army of Maitreya will resist from time to time, now he and the remnants of Maitreya are surrounded by the border guards of the imperial court in a small mountain col, surrounded by cliffs, inside is a dead end, Xie Sanmu looked at the dozens of clansmen who followed him, and looked at the one hundred and ten Maitreya rebels who were confronting him on the opposite side.
He sighed, threw away the hook knife in his hand, and said to Li Jingye, who rushed behind him: "Xie is willing to give the head, and please let the general let my clansmen go!" ”
When Zhao Ashi arrived at Baima Village, Li Jingye had already returned to Tianfuyi with a long list of prisoners of war, leaving Zhao Ashi with a burned and tattered empty village.
Zhao Ashi asked someone to go back and inform his father Zhao Pufang of the situation in Xiejiazhai, and then hurried to Xinning City with his men.
When he arrived in Xinning, he was just in time for Di Feng to experiment with his new invention in the gods............ (To be continued.) )
