Chang Yi, the word Yunqu, thirty-five years old, is the leading captain of the forward battalion of the Broken Army, and an authentic young Zhuang faction. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The Young Zhuang faction is a group of capable, ambitious, and high-status guys, who are not satisfied with the status quo and hope to expand their territory, establish greater achievements, and achieve greater achievements.

In their hearts, there is no greater feats and achievements in the world than the unification of Shenzhou, so they are generally tired of internal fighting and eager to fight externally. Especially after personally experiencing the bloody battle for the forbidden army six years ago, Chang Yi and these young officers are more eager to hope that a strong man can stand up, end this kind of meaningless infighting in their eyes, lead them to fight in all directions, and establish eternal meritorious deeds.

Seventeen years ago, he only rubbed the bloody storm to the side, so unlike some old generals, he had a lot of resentment against the royal family. But this is by no means to say that he has a good impression of the royal family, on the contrary, if Li Hun can defeat the royal family with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai and monopolize the power, he will also welcome it tightly.

This is also a common sentiment in the army, they long for the strong, the strong who can bring them victory, as for the identity of the strong, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, it's either the Li family or the Qin family.

Under the influence of this emotion, although he smelled the strong smell of conspiracy in this operation, he didn't bother to pay attention to it, anyway, the orders of the Taiwei Mansion were fully stamped and signed, and he couldn't fake it. Besides, there is also a general who is responsible, and he can't bear any responsibility, so he just does things according to the rules.

So unlike Qin Lei thought, his pursuit was very resolute, and there was no discount in speed, and finally caught up with the enemy when it was dark.

"Report, the enemy camp has been found ahead!" After listening to the scout's report, the lieutenant under the torch commanded several lieutenants around him in a deep voice: "Each belt and bend to smash the Yellow Dragon!" ”

"Whoa!" The generals rushed away, and soon a vanguard of more than a dozen cavalry took the lead in the direction of the enemy camp. Sixty breaths after they set out, the large army also rumbled after them.

The enemy who had been chasing for two days was in front of them, which made the soldiers of the Broken Army excited, and the night road of more than ten miles seemed to be instantaneous, and they could already see the little bonfires in the enemy camp from afar.

The five hundred pioneers did not hesitate to increase the speed to the fastest, and the soldiers tightened their halberds in their hands, ready to meet the expected resistance. But they were disappointed, and roared through the empty enemy camp, except to knock over three cauldrons and break a few jugs, and had no chance to make any move until they broke out of the camp.

'Phew! The soldiers took hold of the reins, and when they turned back to look at the enemy camp, there was not half a living thing except a mess.

The news soon reached the Chinese army, and Captain Chang rode into the camp abandoned by the enemy. Looking at the still burning bonfire, he pointed to the jugs and iron pots scattered on the ground with his horsewhip. The soldiers around him turned over and dismounted, picked up a water jug, tested the temperature of the water in it with their hands, and reported in a loud voice: "It's still warm." ”

It seems that the enemy's scouts are not vegetarians either, Chang Yi said in his heart. But you're too fast.

"Chase!" With his order, the eight thousand light horsemen hit the road again vigorously. The attack power of the Broken Army is not as good as that of the Long Xiang Army, and the defensive power is not as good as the Iron Armor Army, and it can rank in the middle of the eighth rank of the Forbidden Army, relying on the second mobile ability in the world. Therefore, the Broken Army made marching training in various situations a daily subject. Even at night, they can maintain a relatively high speed. Half an hour later, the vanguard found the enemy's fleeing rear army in confusion, although it was dark at night, and the number of the enemy could not be seen, but these experienced veterans could still hear from the density of horses' hooves, this was two thousand horsemen.

Having identified the enemy's main force, they pounced on it without hesitation, and at the same time the enemy spotted them, and desperately urged the horses under their seats to flee forward. For a while, the speed was forced to go up again, and it was on par with the Broken Army.

The vanguard team's captives were not surprised when they saw the enemy's sudden speed, but they were not surprised, but the enemy's behavior of relying on overdraft horses to obtain acceleration told the captives that they had panicked and could no longer think about what to do when the horses were tired. You must know that even if it is a good Xiliang horse, running at full speed for half an hour will be physically exhausted, and the war horse can not be inspired by the spirit.

Therefore, the Broken Army did not follow the speed, and surrounded the enemy from afar, waiting for the moment when their crossbow was at the end. The end of the strong crossbow cannot be worn by Lu Min. That's the prime time to attack.

With this kind of cat-to-mouse mentality, the Broken Army marched for half an hour. Sure enough, the enemy forces in front of them slowed down significantly.

It's our turn, thought every striker. With a fierce clamp on the horse's belly, more than five hundred riders frantically raised their speed, and in a blink of an eye, they approached about 100 paces.

At this moment, a "whoosh, whoosh......" A scalp-tinging sound of breaking the air came from the enemy's rear army.

"Crossbow!" These veterans naturally knew the goods, and when they heard the sound of breaking the air, they curled up one after another and lay on the broad back of the war horse. The light is blind, and the trajectory of the enemy's crossbow arrows cannot be seen at all, so they can only ask for more blessings while trying to reduce the exposed area as much as possible.

With the sound of sharp weapons entering the flesh, there was a neighing of horses, and more than 20 war horses and more than a dozen knights were shot and fell. Fortunately, they were not recruits, they did not charge in a dense formation, and the distance between the horses was very wide, so that there was no collision and squeezing, causing self-harm.

Just as the soldiers of the forward team thought that they had escaped a catastrophe and raised their heads to breathe a sigh of relief, another wave of arrows roared, and more soldiers were caught off guard, and the attack could not help but be stagnant.

The rain of arrows shot almost non-stop, beating the soldiers so that they couldn't lift their heads. From time to time, there were screams of comrades falling from their horses, and it was impossible to see how many people had been hit by arrows in the darkness, but it was this invisibility that invisibly magnified the fear in the hearts of the soldiers, and they involuntarily slowed down slightly, falling far beyond the range of the enemy's crossbow arrows.

The news soon reached the Chinese army and was reported to Chang Yi. Lieutenant Chang under the torch suddenly pulled down his face, and whipped his hand on the face of the herald who came to report the news, and the herald snorted, but he did not dare to scream.

"Flank each of you with your headquarters and leave me with their crossbow teams." Chang Yi ordered to the two lieutenants beside him. He didn't have the luxury of expecting the black light to be able to completely annihilate the enemy, as long as he could be afraid, scattered, and wounded, he would be very satisfied, and dawn was the time to annihilate everything, Chang Yi comforted himself, somehow, the closer he was to the moment of annihilating the enemy, the more hesitant he was, and subconsciously wanted to drag it back.

Therefore, when he called the herald, it was not so much that he was dissatisfied with the forward team, but that it was more accurate to say that he was hesitant and irritable.

The two cavalry armies quickly broke away from their positions and struck forward from the left and right flanks, respectively, and in less than a quarter of an hour overtook the forward team. Even in the dark, the soldiers of the vanguard team could clearly feel the occasional glance from the side over their robes, full of disdain.

As if he had been greatly insulted, the leader of the vanguard team, Captain Wolf, howled: "Rush with Lao Tzu." So saying, he grabbed the horse's belly and ran out frantically. When the soldiers behind saw their officers behaving like this, they immediately stopped thinking twice, and desperately urged their horses to follow their lieutenants closely.

In the blink of an eye, the forward team in the middle overtook the left and right wings, and the reinforcements on the two wings naturally did not make them too proud, and they also raised full speed to try to overtake again.

When you chase me, the speed is not only a tenth, but after a while, you will be within a hundred paces of the enemy. The rain of arrows came as scheduled, but this time no one flinched, but because the falling horse on the side of the robe was even more ferocious, shouting and urging the war horse to go faster. As long as that little caution was resolved, the sergeants were restored to their original appearance of not fearing death.

Eighty steps, seventy steps, sixty steps, although there are more and more knights of the broken army who have fallen from their horses, the distance between the two sides is still irreversibly shortened, and it is inevitable that they will meet each other in close combat.

The enemy in front of him apparently had this realization. The more than 200 horsemen who were dragging at the back of the team turned around in a dashing manner, and then launched a counter-charge without hesitation.

This was a group of black-armored cavalry, who, after firing the last rain of arrows at their gallop, hung their crossbows back in their saddles, and at the same time removed their iron lances and raised them in a standard cavalry charge.

Seeing that the enemy dared to turn around to meet the attack, the charging army on the opposite side also raised the halberd in his hand and hedged without fear.

In the blink of an eye, the head-on charge duel began. The halberds of the Broken Cavalry are one and four feet long, while the iron lances of the black-armored cavalry are one and six feet long, which is two feet longer than that of the Broken Cavalry. One inch long and one inch strong, so it is also a thorn, and the first to hit is naturally the broken army.

With its furious force, the lance slammed into the chest of the Broken Soldier in leather armor alone. Between the blood gushing, the sharp tip of the lance drilled out from behind, if it weren't for a four-inch branch eight inches from the head of the lance, blocking the way of the lance, I am afraid that the whole iron lance would have been submerged by the roots.

In a single charge, more than 100 soldiers of the Broken Soldiers died tragically, almost equal to the number of people who had been folded under the arrows from the beginning to the end.

But the black-armored cavalry didn't have a good time. After all, the Broken Cavalry was outnumbered, and even if the black-armored cavalry won a move and had the advantage in one-on-one, the halberds on the left and right sides stabbed them in the chest almost at the same time as the black-armored cavalry succeeded. There was no imaginary popping sound into the flesh, but a sonorous sound of gold and iron, and the halberd of the Broken Army did not pierce the cavalry armor on the black-armored cavalry.

But the powerful double impact was enough to knock the black-armored cavalry off his horse, and he fell to the ground hard, unable to get up again.

The collision of the charging cavalry separated in the next moment, and this short and splendid impact caused each side to lose more than 100 people. More lethal than any other attack.

The broken army that broke through the defense line did not stop, leaving the remaining more than 100 enemy troops to the Chinese army behind. Their mission is to raid and raid until they have chased the enemy to the end of their rope or even collapse. As for the task of annihilating the enemy army, it was handed over to the main forces of the Chinese army that followed unhurriedly behind. This is also the standard pursuit tactics of the Broken Army.

Blocked by the two hundred black-armored cavalry just now, the distance between the vanguard of the Broken Army and the enemy's main force was widened again. The three leading lieutenants were already anxious, and they rushed back to the team in desperation.

The 100 remnants of the soldiers, who had been left behind by them, did not flee for their lives, but seized the precious time before the enemy's central army came up, rode back to the place where they had just fought, and helped their comrades who were still breathing to their horses, and then left the battlefield and went west.

They didn't go far before Chang Yi's Chinese army arrived. Captain Chang also knew what had just happened through the scouts who were secretly observing all this.

"The last general is willing to lead a team of men and horses to take down these thieves. Thank you for your permission. It was a young man in the costume of a lieutenant next to Chang Yi who spoke.

Chang Yi glanced at him coldly and did not speak.

The lieutenant was bored, and retreated. Naturally, he remembered the small account in his heart, he was Li Kejian's grandson, and he naturally had a different flavor when he remembered his hatred.

Chang Yi didn't send anyone to chase the remnants of the army in the end, and after chasing along the way, through some clues, he could already judge that the opponent was an army with strict military discipline, well-trained, and even full of friendship. He never believed that the rabble of the Maitreya Sect could have such an army, or it would not have been wiped out by the prince and the Zhennan army like chopping melons and vegetables.

In this night's pursuit, even if he didn't think about it, he already knew who the person he was going to chase and kill, so he naturally lost the ruthlessness of killing them all, and let those respectable but innocuous remnants leave. It's not about loyalty and conscientiousness, it's just the respect that a soldier has for a soldier.

The vanguard of the Broken Army approached the enemy's rear less than eighty paces, as if the scene had just reappeared, first a dense rain of arrows, and then more than 200 horsemen counterattacked, fighting like lightning, and the two sides separated after breaking a hundred men each. The captives held their nerve and continued their pursuit. And the hundred surviving black-armored cavalry still did not flee alone, like the previous wave of knights, turned around to collect the surviving robes, helped them to mount their horses, and rode away.

And Changyi Changyun Canal still did not stop it......

By the time the Breakers caught up with the enemy for the third time, it was already half an hour later. Fortunately, no one rushed over again this time, and what made them a little unaccustomed was that the seemingly endless rain of arrows actually stopped. But it's always good to stop, and not being afraid of death doesn't mean you're tired of living.

Before they had time to think about it, the lieutenants brought out the last bit of passion, urged their exhausted men to pounce on them, bite the enemy for the last time, and then their mission was over. The two-and-a-half-hour pursuit had already pushed the forward team to the limit, and even the later reinforcements could not bear it.

Knowing that this was the last sortie, the sergeants cheered up and beat the horse's buttocks to a bruise, and finally regained high speed. Of course, there are also accidents where horses stumble.

The two sides are getting closer and closer, and there is no reaction until twenty steps to the other side, and the mind is sensitive and has begun to feel that something is wrong. When they reached about ten paces, even if the light was dark, the soldiers in the front row were shocked to find that there was no one on the opposite side! Looking further afield, there is none!

In other words, they have been running with a group of stupid horses for more than half an hour.

In other words, the two battalions of 8,000 people of the Broken Army were driven by 400 people and led by more than 1,000 horses for a night.

When the sergeants overtook the front of the horse team, controlled the head horse with a lasso, and 'captured' all the more than 1,000 war horses, Chang Yi's Chinese army also arrived.

At this time, the sky is lit up with a morning star, and it is no longer as dark as it was just now. It didn't take the three unfortunate captains to report, he had already seen the herd of war horses in front of him.

Raised the horsewhip and ordered the three unappetizing guys, he surprisingly didn't pump them out, and scolded without being salty or light: "***, running away all night, it's really fucking unlucky." ”

"My lord, how can you be considered poor? Didn't we capture more than a thousand horses? It's worth 100,000 taels, right? Seeing his aggrieved face, several lieutenants who were secretly glad that they had escaped hurriedly comforted. Although Captain Chang likes to beat people, he is usually very good to everyone.

I don't know if it's okay not to say it, but when I say it, it causes Chang Yi to jump like thunder, and the horsewhip in his hand falls on his head and face, making the three of them dizzy. They are officers, and they are Chang Yi's close subordinates, so Chang Yi is not really fighting, and the three of them stopped after a few words of forgiveness.

After being beaten, they also had to ask for clarification, and the three of them asked a small question: "My lord, did we say something wrong?" Didn't we earn it? ”

Chang Yi put away the horsewhip and said with a wry smile: "Not only did I not earn it, but I also had to raise horses for others, and I don't know if I can get the forage money back." Although the Taiwei Mansion had laid a net, he believed that the man would be able to escape.

"What if they can't escape this?" One of the lieutenants asked.

Chang Yi scratched his head and bared his teeth and said, "Then we will really make money." ”

So the four generals of the Broken Army prayed sincerely.
