Chapter 340: Dead End

Yu Wenxiong quickly rode to the front of the team, and the feather arrows in front of him whizzed, and several feather arrows flew past Yu Wenxiong's ears. Shouts and screams also came from the front, and in the smoke and dust, the horses and neighing people in front of them were in chaos.

Yu Wenxiong raised his scimitar and rushed over, in the chaos, he saw his own cavalry and the opponent's cavalry entangled, swords and halberds one after another, the sparks from the impact of weapons were clearly visible, the popping sound of the blade into the flesh was clearly audible, and the friction of the armor was extremely harsh. A Xi warrior with his back to him in front of him was slashing at his blocked opponent with his scimitar held high, but Yu Wenxiong could clearly see the tip of a blood-dripping spear protruding from the back of the Xi warrior's fur armor. As the warrior fell off his horse, Yu Wenxiong saw the face of a Tang cavalryman who was carrying a blood-dripping spear.

Unable to contain the anger in his heart, Yu Wenxiong roared and rushed forward, the long scimitar in his hand slashing at the other party in a shining arc. The soldier raised his spear to block, and the fine iron scimitar sharpened iron like mud, not to mention the barrel of a gun made of ash hardwood, and with a click, the barrel of the gun broke, and the Tang Army soldier was cut into two pieces alive with a gun.

A smell of hot blood splashed on Yu Wenxiong's face, Yu Wenxiong stretched out his tongue and licked the blood on the side of his mouth, glared and yelled: "Kill all these Tang dogs, and leave no one behind." ”

Seeing that the main general was mighty, the surrounding Xi soldiers were in high spirits, and they shouted and shouted in their mouths, and rushed forward one by one. The Tang soldiers on the opposite side resisted to the death, but after a while, several people were killed, and their momentum was weakened.

"Huh." A whistling of feather arrows sounded from the front, and Yu Wenxiong, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, watched and listened to all directions, and subconsciously dodged sideways, but a feather arrow slashed past his shoulder, shooting away the blades of the upturned shoulder armor, and pulling his left shoulder open with a bloody gap.

Yu Wenxiong scolded repeatedly, and looked up despite the bleeding from his shoulder, but saw that not far ahead, a young man in exquisite armor was riding on a white horse, holding a bow and arrow in his hand and looking at him, his face full of remorse.

"Son of a bitch, dare to plot against your Grandpa Yuwen, who are you? Wang Yuan? Yu Wenxiong scolded.

"Yuwen old dog, Wang Yuan is my teacher, the master is your grandfather Liu Jun, and my mother is the lady of Qin Guo in the Tang Dynasty today. Liu Jun held a bow and arrow and scolded sharply, the child's voice was relatively shrill and thin, although it was on the noisy battlefield, it was still heard clearly in the life and death struggle.

Yu Wenxiong was overjoyed in his heart, forgetting that he was scolded by the young man in front of him, and thought in his heart: Picking up the grass and beating the rabbit by the way, it turns out that this kid is the son of Mrs. Qin Guo of the Tang Dynasty, and his identity is more noble than Wang Yuan, but he has encountered a good thing. If you can slaughter this kid, the value is greater than killing Wang Yuan.

"Boy, your grandfather Yuwen is coming to arrest you." Yu Wenxiong laughed, the scimitar in his hand kept rising and falling, and he cut off the two Tang soldiers who were stopped in front of him off his horse, and rode his horse non-stop, with the assistance of the surrounding Xi cavalry, he killed Liu Jun more than a dozen steps away.

Liu Jun's face showed a look of fear, and he bent his bow and shot two arrows in a row, Yu Wenxiong easily used his scimitar to pull it away, and approached with a wild laugh. Liu Jun threw down his bow and arrows and turned his horse's head and ran back, and the Tang cavalry also turned their horse's head and fled backwards.

Yu Wenxiong laughed and shouted: "Little rabbit master, pee your pants in fear, I will catch your little rabbit cub today, and ask your mother Mrs. Qin Guo to lick the finch for Lao Tzu, otherwise Lao Tzu will slaughter his baby son." ”

The Tang army had no fighting spirit, turned the horse's head and galloped away, and the Xi cavalry chased after Yu Wenxiong under the leadership of Yu Wenxiong, Yu Wenxiong's eyes were always staring at the figure of the young man riding a white horse among the Tang soldiers, and his legs urged the horse to chase fiercely. chased and fled, and after a while, he had already escaped the protection range of his own archers, and came straight to the ambush circle set up by Wang Yuan.

Hu Erhai, who was riding a horse and following closely behind Yu Wenxiong, rushed up and shouted beside Yu Wenxiong: "General Yuwen, it's not good to chase like this, it's better to wait for the brigade behind to come and chase together." Besides, you have to be careful of the Tang army's ambush, anyway, they can't fly to the sky, didn't you say that there are soldiers and horses from An Lushan in Nanshan Pass? ”

Yu Wenxiong spat at the mouth and roared, "What do you know? Taking this kid is worth more than anything, the Yang family is rich and rivals the country, let's get promoted to the official and get rich. ”

Hu Erhai raised his eyebrows and said, "Really? ”

Yu Wenxiong scolded: "Nonsense, don't be long-winded, chase quickly, chase quickly." ”

The Xi cavalry galloped to catch up, and their war horses were better than the Tang army's war horses with better staying power and explosive power, and the distance between the two sides was constantly narrowing. The Tang soldiers who fell behind were constantly caught up and died under the sharp blades of the Xi soldiers and horses, and dozens of Tang soldiers died under the rolling iron hooves.

Turning right in the canyon ahead, more than a dozen Tang army war horses turned too quickly and stumbled under their feet, and even the people and horses slid smoothly, hitting the mountain wall on the left, and the Xi cavalry of the brigade swept by like a whirlwind, trampling them into meat sauce with people and horses.

"These gray grandsons, my three-year-old children of the Xi tribe are also better at riding than theirs. After chasing for a few miles, they didn't need to use a single knife or shot, and they all fell to their deaths. Yu Wenxiong laughed.

"General Yuwen, something seems to be wrong ahead." Hu Erhai laughed for a while, and suddenly pointed forward with a scimitar.

Yu Wenxiong squinted his eyes in the flying yellow dust and squinted forward, in a blurred dust, he seemed to see a barrier in front of him, a gust of wind whistled through the canyon, the dust in front of him was quickly blown away, and then all the Xi cavalry saw the barrier in front of him.

It was a barricade of dozens of carts, piled with many things piled up on them, covered with pine branches and leaves, and as the fleeing Tang army approached the barrier, the two large carts in the middle of the barrier were slowly being pushed away, revealing a passage about a foot wide. Yu Wenxiong watched as the white-horse boy rushed into the passage first, and then hundreds of Tang Army soldiers also rushed into the passage. The horses of more than 30 Xi cavalry who chased the fastest had not yet stepped into the passage, and countless heads emerged from the barrier, bending bows and arrows to shoot a round of arrows, and more than 30 horsemen fell to the ground in response, and the men and horses rolled forward, plowing out bloody traces, and slammed into the wall of the carriage in front.

"Shoot the arrows." A Don soldier jumped on top of the cart and shouted.

Countless feathered arrows were shot from the big cart fortifications, and the Xi soldiers and horses running in front seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water on their heads, and more than a dozen cavalry were full of arrows, rolling in the sand and rubble with smoke and dust.

"Shoot the arrows."

"Shoot the arrows."

The officers of the Tang Army in front were ruthlessly giving orders, and a rain of arrows was like poisonous snakes biting the oncoming Xi soldiers and horses. Each round of arrow rain took dozens of lives, and these Xi soldiers and horses seemed to be lining up to die.

"General Yuwen, there is an ambush, let's withdraw quickly." Hu Erhai shouted loudly, swung his blade to protect his body, and flew the arrows that came at him.

Yuwen scolded and yelled: "You can't retreat, rush over." Suddenly, the sea immediately rushed and destroyed the opponent's fortifications. ”

Hu Erhai scolded his mother, I don't know whether to scold Yu Wenxiong or himself, he yelled and raised his knife and shouted: "Brothers, they don't have many soldiers and horses, follow me and rush over, kill." ”

Hu Erhai urged the chaotic war horses, bent down and rushed forward, and the Xi cavalry actually couldn't turn back, because there was a steady stream of cavalry rushing from behind. It is impossible to turn around and evacuate at this time, just like a train rushing forward, the sharp braking of the front of the car does not work at all, and the rear of the car will fly out of the front of the car, causing serious consequences.

"Kill." With no way to retreat, the Xi cavalry broke out with great ferocity, and suddenly Erhai took the lead, and dozens of cavalry quickly followed, and after the road was clear, more Xi cavalry joined the ranks of the charge.

The arrows of the Tang army were ruthlessly fired round after round, and the Xi cavalry continued to roll and fall off their horses, and then were trampled into pulp by the cavalry behind. The charge of the Xi people is truly terrifying, once they decide to charge, there is nothing to stop them, even if there are raindrops of arrows in front of them mercilessly.

Wang Yuan stood in the vehicle fortifications, watching the Xi people rush over without fear of death, with countless casualties at a distance of dozens of steps, but he never flinched, and he was also in awe in his heart. According to this method of charging, this fortification cannot be saved, although the other party may pay the price of two or three hundred lives, but once they approach, the consequences are unimaginable.

"The archers evacuate immediately." Wang Yuan ordered in a deep voice.

Liu Dehai, who was standing at the top of the carriage, repeated his order loudly: "The last round, shoot." Evacuate immediately. ”

More than 200 archers fired a final round of dense feathered arrows, taking the lives of more than 20 Xi warriors, and at the same time got up and ran up the rear passage.

"Ignition." Wang Yuan quietly issued an order, and more than a dozen soldiers held burning torches to ignite the piles of dead leaf pine needles piled up on the inside of the cart. Almost in a matter of breaths, the entire fortification formed a huge wall of fire.

Wang Yuan quickly retreated with his men and horses, and when they retreated into the second barrier twenty paces away, dozens of Xi cavalry could no longer hold back and broke through the first barrier with flames all over their bodies. They fell off their horses and rolled on the ground screaming and howling.

"Ignition." Wang Yuan ordered again.

The pine needles and firewood piled up by the second barrier were also ignited, and the second wall of fire also rose, and the first wall of fire that was broken away was still burning fiercely, and dozens of horsemen who were not afraid of death rushed through the wall of fire, but in front of the second wall of fire, the war horses that lost their impact no longer had the courage to break through the sea of fire. Manpower hissed loudly.

The arrows shot out again from behind the second wall of fire, like locusts crossing the sea of fire, nailing the body of the Xi cavalry with the blue flames on the shaft of the arrows. This sound was accompanied by the screams of the fallen knights, which was extremely eerie.
