709th Raid 3

In the rear of the Turkic army, the joy on his face suddenly disappeared because of the successful counterattack and repelled the heavy cavalry of the Zhao army.

Seeing that the heavy armored cavalry of the Zhao army retreated, and seeing that the morale of the soldiers was restored, he was able to gather the soldiers and counterattack, but in the blink of an eye, he changed hands. Xue Khan's heart suddenly became cold, and he no longer had the intention of fighting back.

In the darkness, a bloodied Turkic cavalry rushed over and replied loudly in front of Xue Jian, "Great Khan, the situation is not good, the rear camp of our army has been occupied by the Zhao army, and most of the livestock and war horses carried by the army have been robbed by the Zhao army!" Now, the army of the Zhao army is coming towards the Chinese army. ”

Hearing this, Xue Jian's face was even more colorful, and he thought that all the food of the army had been robbed, and the war horses had also been captured by the Zhao army. Immediately, I felt like my heart was dead, and I understood that this battle was already a big defeat and loss, and it was difficult to have the power to return to heaven.

Before and after this battle, it was originally a lot of battles and few battles, and the army pressed the border, and there was a tendency to break the city. But no one thought that Zhao Jun would have a weapon like the Heaven-Shaking Thunder in reserve here, and it would suddenly appear at a critical moment. Let the already exhausted army no longer have the fighting spirit. What was even more unbearable was that the Zhao army actually raided overnight and attacked the camp. Once again, the terrifying Heaven-Shattering Thunder works wonders at night, showing an unparalleled effect. Thousands of casualties were killed and injured at once, and the casualties were still trivial, and the key was that the morale of the entire army that had just been assembled and regained its fighting spirit was all hit to the extreme.

"Great Khan, let's immediately retreat to the left battalion, first use the left battalion as the base, and reorganize the army for battle!" At this moment, Beduyan, who was beside Xue Jiankhan, saw that Xue Jiankhan's face was not right, and his whole body trembled, so he hurriedly said.

"Retreat!" After a while, Xue Jian Khan roared sharply, immediately turned the horse's head, and quietly left with some of the soldiers around him. At the same time, he also asked 10,000 to continue to command the soldiers to delay the Zhao army here.

Compared to the rear battalion, the front battalion is the camp where the Turkic army is stationed. Most of the rear battalions were stocked with the grain and grass of the army, that is, the livestock that accompanied the army. In addition, there are war horses, herdsmen who raise war horses and livestock. The main army of the Turkic army was stationed in the front, left and right battalions, of which the former battalion was the most important.

Therefore, the Zhao army entered from the right flank, and the troops were divided into three routes, killing towards the middle, rear camp and front camp. Among them, the front battalion is the most important, and the middle and rear battalions are mainly set on fire, supplemented by earth-shaking thunder, disrupting the whole battalion, and the small kitchen has the heart to resist and counterattack. Of course, there were many soldiers in the rear camp who were responsible for collecting the herdsmen, horses, and livestock.

The former battalion commander was the former general of the Turkic army, Li Qiguang, a childhood companion of Xue Jian Khan, and a veteran.

Since the Zhao army used the earth-shattering thunder last night and the army was defeated and retreated, Li Qiguang, who withdrew his troops and returned to the camp, had a bad conjecture about this battle. The Zhao army used the earth-shattering thunder at this moment, not to say that the Zhao army had reached a critical juncture, but to show that the Zhao army had enough weapons and methods to counterattack its own siege.

Therefore, after returning to the camp, Li Qiguang has been a little uneasy, this is a battlefield veteran, and he has an intuition about the impending danger. But the officers and men of the whole army fought hard repeatedly, and they were indeed extremely tired, and all of them, in the large camp, soon fell into tranquility.

For some reason, Li Qiguang couldn't sleep peacefully, and there was always that uneasy feeling flashing in his heart. When he finally couldn't resist his exhaustion and was about to go back to sleep, he suddenly felt the earth tremble.

"What's going on?" Li Qiguang was startled, and then he heard some experienced veterans outside the tent exclaiming: "The enemy has attacked the camp!" Li Qiguang also reacted immediately, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly, and a feeling of anxiety and unhappiness rose in his heart.

For many days, the army fought hard day and night, and the soldiers of the army were exhausted to death. Nowadays, the defense of the battalion is the same, and the enemy came out to attack at this time, and the timing was so exquisite. And judging from the tremors of this land, there are definitely quite a few enemies who have come to attack the camp.

It seems that the Zhao army is going to take advantage of the fatigue of the army and the defenselessness at night to come to the sneak attack! Thinking of this, Li Qiguang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and there were only two words lingering in his heart - it's over.

At this moment, the situation in the camp is well known. And since the Zhao army has long been prepared for a surprise attack at this time, it is natural to recuperate and recuperate, and the elite will be exhausted, how can these soldiers who are still sleeping soundly in the army resist?

Li Qiguang took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and ordered loudly: "Someone come, immediately report the situation to the Great Khan, and immediately convey the news of this place to the rest of the battalions." In addition, blow the horn and let the soldiers get up. ”

"Pass the order, let the soldiers at the forefront immediately bring their shields, go to the front camp, and set up a defensive formation! Tell them that the incoming army of the Zhao army will definitely take the Qi army as the vanguard, and if it cannot block the enemy's advance, the entire battalion will definitely collapse. Therefore, even if it is death, it must be said that Zhao Jun will be stopped by General Ben! ”

"Yes, sir!" The guards who were summoned back immediately responded, and hurriedly arranged for people to do it, and after a while, the whole camp began to boil, and the soldiers had just been woken up, and they were not asleep yet.

According to Li Qiguang's orders, the overall situation immediately began to deploy in the south of the camp, preparing to intercept the incoming Zhao army. Although most of the horses of the front battalion army were stored in the rear camp, some were also located in the front camp. Therefore, Li Qiguang also asked some of the soldiers to find their horses and prepare to meet the enemy.

However, the direction of the Zhao army's attack was not from the blue capital city in the south, but from the right flank, and from the right rear to the front camp. In other words, the Zhao army entered from the rear of the Liqiguang camp. Therefore, Li Qiguang's defense was completely useless, but instead put his rear under the surprise attack of the Zhao army.

"Damn, they actually broke through the right battalion! How so? What did all those people in the right camp do? A bunch of bastards! That's it! After seeing the direction of Zhao Jun's attack clearly, Li Qiguang suddenly exclaimed sadly.

The commander beside Li Qiguang asked urgently: "My lord, do you want to immediately let the army turn around and prepare for battle?" Since the Zhao army is attacking from the right, there must be nothing to do ahead. ”

Li Qiguang shook his head, his face was miserable: "Let's not talk about whether there are enemy troops in front of us, even if we turn the direction, it's too late at this moment!" Besides, in front of the camp is the headquarters of the Zhao army, which is the Blue Capital City, do you think they will not send troops to attack? This simply does not make sense. Damn it! ”

As Li Qiguang said, now, it's too late. How fast the cavalry of the Zhao army charged, and whether the rear of the Turkic army was defenseless. Zhao Jun completely came out of the camp, but it was only a dozen breaths of time, and he had already come to the place of the front camp.

Without any protection, some military tents were also destroyed by the cavalry of the Zhao army one by one. The Da Zhao cavalry didn't need to stop at all, and directly broke through the tents and some low fences, and scattered those tents and fences that had no protective effect. With the heavy armored cavalry as the vanguard, the five thousand heavy armored cavalry were like a sharp and heavy giant axe, smashing into the former camp of Li Qiguang.

The battle that followed was more of a massacre than a battle. Similar to the right battalion and the middle battalion, the heavy cavalry of the Zhao army rushed over the tent, and the Turkic army that had just been awakened inside had not yet eased up, and saw the cold light flickering with their hazy sleepy eyes, and a spear stabbed at it.

And the Turkic soldiers, most of them were still shirtless, and they had just been shouted from the bed by the heralds who begged for light, and it was most appropriate to describe them as defenseless, instinctively raising their arms to resist, but their arms were shattered and smashed, and then they were pierced through their bodies by spears, and then they were provoked by the cavalry of the Zhao army with spears, still on the side. Subsequently, he was trampled on by the heavy cavalry behind him......

"Boom, boom, ......boom" Zhao Jun threw out the earth-shattering thunder again, and immediately blasted the hundreds of Turkic cavalry who had just been fully prepared on the flank in front of them to smithereens. At that moment, the Turkic army, which was preparing to meet the front battalion, lost all fighting spirit. I have to say that the effect of the earth-shattering thunder is too powerful. Even, even several heavily armored cavalry were hit by the iron balls that ejected from the sky-shattering thunder. If it weren't for the distance, if it weren't for the heavy armor cavalry wearing heavy armor, I am afraid that the dozen or so heavy armored cavalry who were lagging behind would be injured by their own weapons.

The front battalion of the Turkic army is all elite, and they are the main force participating in the attack on the blue capital city in the past few days. But at this moment, these poor elite soldiers were slaughtered by the Zhao cavalry like slaughtering pigs and sheep.

The role of the heavy cavalry was more to charge and tear than to kill, they tore apart the enemy's array, and in the battle of the cold weapon era that relied on the number of tens of thousands of people to win, the soldiers who lost the array formation were lambs to the slaughter. Therefore, these heavy cavalry killed people only by hand, and they roared like a violent gust of wind, washing away one tent after another, and rushing out hundreds of meters in an instant.

But they were followed by tens of thousands of light cavalry. Countless Turkic soldiers were not killed, but were swept to the ground, trampled alive by hooves the size of a bowl wrapped in horseshoes. The rest, in a panic, became the target of the subsequent light cavalry, and were either shot by arrows, or beheaded by spears and horizontal knives.

The charge of the cavalry of the Zhao army continued. At this time, if you can look down from the sky, you can find that in the camp of the Turkic army, among these tents, tens of thousands of Zhao cavalry are divided into several strands, each of which is like an extremely sharp pitch-black spear, viciously plunged into its deepest part. And the earth-shattering thunder in Zhao Jun's hand is to smash any chisel hammer that dares to stand in the way. Anyone who intercepts or counterattacks is shattered by a single blow......

At this time, the entire Turkic army camp was completely chaotic, and after being extremely tired, it was easy for people to fall into a deep sleep, and after being awakened in their sleep, there was a considerable period of confusion. Some of the Turkic soldiers thought they were dreaming after being woken up, while others put on their clothes indiscriminately and ran out with the swords in hand, and countless Turkic soldiers scurried around like headless flies.

The thirty or forty thousand light cavalry led by Li Chenfeng fought all the way along the road where the heavy cavalry rushed out. Li Chenfeng constantly made corresponding arrangements and issued corresponding military orders according to the information transmitted by the cavalry, and these light cavalry continued to draw their bows and arrows on their horses, shooting at the left and right sides. They didn't pay attention to precision at all, they just pursued speed, and when they drew an arrow from their back quiver, they shot it out, and then they drew and shot again, and their arms were like clockwork. In addition, they threw out sheepskin bags filled with fire oil in their hands, and then released rockets......

The Turkic army of more than 100,000 people gathered in one camp, the density was outrageous, and the cavalry of the Zhao army did not worry about missing anyone at all, as long as they shot out, they would definitely be captured, as evidenced by the continuous screams from both sides.

And there are also a large number of rockets mixed in, and the tents, fences, etc. in the camp are all flammable, plus the fire oil thrown, which really adds fuel to the fire. A rocket shot out, and immediately set the tent on fire, and suddenly a burst of fire rose.61 Like a huge torch, the camp was lit up. The soldiers in the tent didn't have time to escape, but they were burned to death inside, and let out terrible screams.

The sound of shouting and killing, the sound of horses' hooves, the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air, the sound of burning and plucking, the screams of countless people before they died, coupled with the explosion of earth-shattering thunder, weave into a tragic symphony, which constantly reverberates in this land.

After countless Turkic soldiers got up, all they saw was blood and fire, and all they heard in their ears were such sounds, and their ignorant brains could no longer bear such stimulation.

As soon as a Turkic soldier got up, he was nailed through his shoulder by a stray arrow from nowhere, and he let out a terrible scream, his head was in chaos, and he suddenly drew the scimitar next to his pillow and slashed at the robe beside him viciously. The soldier had one of his arms cut off, and then he screamed and slashed with his sword......

The chaotic killing soon spread to the entire tent, and the people in each tent were slashing at each other, and they no longer had these former sibling robes in their eyes, and there was only one thought in their minds - kill! Kill! Kill!

The killing continued to spread to the periphery, and countless soldiers joined in, I don't know how many soldiers, hundreds, or thousands, were killing each other. The most terrible thing in the barracks, and the most feared thing for the commander, the camp roar, finally happened.

Ying Xiao has always been worried by all those who lead the army, and its danger is too great to express. Not only did there be a lot of deaths, but it was also extremely demoralizing, and if it was used by people in silence, it would be even more terrible. Therefore, in all dynasties, strict military discipline is the primary method to prevent camp roaring.

And this time, due to extreme exhaustion, the surprise attack of the cavalry of the Zhao army, coupled with the use of earth-shattering thunder, finally triggered a large-scale camp roar in the front camp of the Turkic army. Countless Turkic soldiers let out a heart-rending roar, this kind of cry is not like a human can make, but like the crazy roar of a beast before it dies, quickly infected, at this moment I don't know how many people roared loudly, crazy slashing and slashing.

Even the leader who came was shocked, you know, there are forty or fifty thousand Turkic troops here. However, Li Chenfeng was well-informed, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed to see that his own sneak attack had caused the camp roar of the Turkic army. Shouted loudly: "Don't care, don't care, keep shooting the enemy, don't stop!" ”

With his order, another round of arrows rained down. Blood flowed everywhere, severed arms and stumps flying everywhere, fires soaring into the sky, soldiers killing frantically, feathered arrows raining down. Li Qiguang, who had just turned back from the front, saw such a purgatory scene like the sky was collapsing.

Originally, in order to keep the soldiers from panicking, and to prepare the soldiers behind. Li Qiguang only ordered the soldiers in the front tent to prepare for battle immediately, and the latter continued to prepare completely. Who would have thought that Zhao Jun would be killed from behind?

"What to do? What to do? Is the front camp really finished? Damn, why did Zhao Jun kill directly from the right battalion? Li Qiguang looked at the camp that had been reduced to a sea of fire and his subordinates were killing each other, and his heart suddenly felt like ashes.

"Report ...... General Qiyu, in front of the camp, the Zhao army was killed, and in the blue capital city, no less than forty or fifty thousand soldiers came straight to our camp. It's hard to resist ahead, so I'm here for help! At this moment, there was also news from the front that made Li Qiguang feel chills.

"It's finally here!" Li Qiguang sighed in silence. Although he knew from the beginning that in front of the camp, it was impossible for the Zhao army to attack. It's just that he has always held out hope, hoping that Zhao Jun will not kill from the front. But now, his hope is only hope after all. He understood that by now, his former battalion was completely finished.

"It's over, the front camp is over! No, it should be the end of the whole camp! Li Qiguang cried out in a sad voice.

"The army is over, but my Turkic army has no seeds. Warriors, kill with me! Even if it is death, it will die in the path of the charge. Li Qiguang snorted, and swung his knife to kill the Zhao army who rushed to kill.

"General...... The general ...... "Seeing that Li Qiguang completely ignored the report of his subordinates, he did not command the soldiers to fight, but rushed out directly. The generals who were originally located next to Li Qiguang were stunned. Immediately, they understood that they were afraid that Li Qiguang would also see that the army was finished. Immediately, more than a dozen generals rushed forward to kill, and some left quietly......

"General, look, that's the commander of the enemy's former battalion!" Among the light cavalry of the Zhao army, a lieutenant general pointed to the distance and said loudly to Li Chenfeng, Li Chenfeng looked in the direction he pointed and saw a knight holding a golden sword, under the escort of dozens of cavalry, from the side to the front to kill his side.

"Shoot the ......," Li Chenfeng shouted coldly.

The former general of the Turkic army, Li Qiguang, did not die in a head-on battle with the Zhao army, but died under the rain of arrows. Also because of the death of Li Qiguang, the front battalion no longer had an effective command......
