Chapter 47: Victory and Death
"Ready to strike." Bai Qi ordered with a calm face. He didn't know if he would be alive after this battle, because there were two knives waiting for him now, one was the knife of the Donghu cavalry, and the other was the knife of the Han saber axe to execute those who disobeyed the generals in battle.
"General Bai Shen, there is a military order!" A small capital rushed up in a hurry and handed a piece of paper to Bai Qi.
Bai Qi frowned: "What about the herald?" How do you deliver it? ”
"Dead." Xiao Dutong replied very simply, "He struggled to run to the city and fell to the ground and died, and he only had time to hand over this letter to the last general, saying that it was a military order for General Bai Shen." ”
Bai Qi unfolded the military order with some doubts. You must know that the situation on the battlefield is urgent, and the heralds rarely use official documents, and they are basically conveyed orally. He looked at the letter, the expression on his face was a little confused, and handed the letter to Wei Changfeng.
Wei Changfeng took it and only glanced at it, then immediately raised his head: "The last general thinks that he should respect the order." ”
Bai Qi thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, anyway, we don't have to take responsibility." After saying that, he turned his head and ordered: "Leave a thousand people to defend the city, and the others are ready to go out of the city and intercept the Donghu cavalry!" ”
Wei Changfeng suddenly took a step forward and asked softly: "General Bai Shen, can our two thousand people stop the Donghu cavalry?" ”
Bai Qi glanced outside the city, and saw that the cavalry of the Han army could no longer support it, and they scattered one after another, and in a few moments, the Donghu army was about to march straight to the city. "If you can't stop it, you have to block it", Bai Qi replied, "In any case, we can't let them attack behind the main force of our army!" ”
Wei Changfeng shook his head: "Why can't we stop it?" General Bai Shen, I think, we shouldn't stop it, let's run away! ”
Outside the city, the flanking cavalry of the Donghu army finally broke through the barrier of the Han cavalry. With a single sword, Mowur cut down a Han soldier who was standing in front of him, shouted, took the lead, and continued to rush forward.
This time, his ability to participate in this crucial assault force was the result of his efforts.
Urian looked down on him and Ag's defeat at Xingcheng, and according to Urian's intention, he wanted to put them in the back line and let them stay there to eat. But the sudden retreat of the Han army played Urian again, and although Urian pursued the whole army, he was also deceived anyway - according to the results of the interrogation of the prisoners of war, this idea was actually the head of the guard!
Ag was justified this time, and two of the three sentences sarcastically mocked Urian, and the meaning was obvious: Didn't you Urian look down on us for being deceived by a chief? Now how did you get cheated by him too?
Ullian knew that he was at a loss, so he could only pretend that he didn't hear it, but he secretly swore in his heart that he must win back this game. Therefore, it may be said that the Donghu Army's surprise attack this time is actually inextricably linked to Wei Changfeng, and if Urian hadn't been stimulated by this, he might not have been able to come up with the idea of crossing the dense forest valley to raid Shanhaiguan.
As soon as the idea came out, Ag called him sick. Because he knew that this idea was indeed a good idea, Urian had saved face, he didn't want to be insulted by Urian again, not to mention, he had other things to do, and this matter could not be done in front of Urian, so he simply called himself sick.
Urian was out of sight and out of mind with Ag, and Ag said that the illness was just what he wanted, so he led the whole army to cross the dense forest, planning to make a surprise attack on Shanhaiguan and complete the immortal feat. It's just that he didn't expect this dense forest valley to be so difficult to walk, the time to cross far exceeded his expectations, the action of the 50,000 army, it is impossible to be unaware, this raid, the success depends on the speed, but the difficulty of the dense forest valley is underestimated, resulting in the Donghu army's marching speed greatly lagging behind Ji Lu's plan, and was finally blocked by the Han army in Jianchang.
The situation that Urian is facing now is very dangerous: if they are blocked by the Han army and cannot successfully break through, they can only retreat into the dense forest, let them follow the pursuit of the Han army behind their backs and lead their horses back to the dense forest valley, it is better to simply commit suicide on the spot. So now, he either succeeds or dies, there are only two options. However, although he repeatedly urged the whole army to attack, he has not been able to completely defeat the Han army, and the most important thing is that the Han army actually made a central breakthrough, seeing that his "clever plan" this time was about to bury the entire army of Donghu. Just when he had no choice, Moyer proposed a flank breakthrough and asked him to personally command the breakthrough.
Urian rushed to the hospital for a sudden illness, and seeing that there was no other way, he had no choice but to obey Moygur once, gathered all the elites, led by Mouer, and launched an attack on the flank of the Han army.
"Keep up!" Moyer shouted again with his sword. Now, he has broken through the encirclement of the Han army, as long as he crosses Jianchang, he will break through to the rear of the Han army, at that time, he will be a butcher, and he will slaughter the Han people like stupid deer on the great plain!
"Commander, enemy, enemy!" A centurion suddenly shouted behind him.
Mowuer immediately looked up and saw that the gate of Jianchang was wide open, and about 2,000 Han soldiers rushed out.
"Let's fight again!" Mowur shouted, and the knife swung in the air with a ring of cold light. He wants to break through the barrier of these two thousand Han troops in one go, and now, nothing can stop him!
