Chapter 824: A Wave of Death

Pei Xingyan didn't have a trace of expression on his face, coldly put his hand into the leather bag on the saddle, took out a human head, and threw it at Kuzhen Tutun, Kuzhen Tutun took it and took a look, isn't it Yibi He Li?! He suddenly burst into tears and cried: "Military advisor, military advisor! It's because I don't listen to your kind words and persuasion, and I am stubborn and self-serving, which will lead to this defeat and kill you. ”

Pei Xingyan said coldly: "Kuzhen Tutun, it was not us who killed your military division, but the captain of your military division, Ba Bald Heili!" ”

Kuzhen Tutun's face changed greatly: "No, it's impossible, how could Ba Bald Heili betray the Yibi military division?" Pei Xingyan, why do you lie to a dying man? ”

Pei Xingyan sighed: "Kuzhen Tutun, I wonder why you are so confident in your subordinates. On your steppe, the strong have always been kings, once you have strong strength, it will naturally be a response, but if you are at the end of the road, those minions who are usually as docile as a dog will also take your head to repay the merits. Even your Western Turkic Datou Khan, who had nowhere to escape after the defeat, chose to go to a place that no one knew about and cut himself off. ”

Kuzhen Tutun was speechless for a long time, and then said viciously: "Don't be too proud, although I, Ashina Kuzhen, was careless for a while, and fell for your tricks, but my younger brother General Mo He is experienced in a hundred battles, and he now has 100,000 iron horsemen from our crossbow tribe, and has attacked the West Gate, if you know each other." Put me out now. I can also say a few kind words to General Mo He. Let him let your father go! If you want to refuse, discipline you Sui people and don't go back to Yumen Pass! ”

Pei Xingyan laughed: "Kuzhen Tutun, do you usually rule your subordinates by lying and deceiving like this?" Your brother has only 30,000 cavalry, not 100,000, and now, I'm afraid that it will be the same as you, and he will be captured by us! ”

Kuzhen Tutun's lips trembled slightly. looked at Pei Xingyan, but he couldn't say a word.

At the west gate of Yiwu City, the battle has come to an end, on the vast battlefield within a radius of more than ten miles, corpses are everywhere, the sun is setting, there are human and horse corpses rolling on the ground everywhere, and the wounded war horses, carrying more than a dozen arrows on their backs, densely packed like hedgehog-like corpses of the owner. Running aimlessly, until the strength is exhausted. Foaming at the mouth, his hooves were weak, he fell to the ground, and could no longer stand up.

The corpses of the Turkic cavalry, accounting for seventy percent of the ten corpses, the best nomadic knights, in terms of organization and discipline, are still no match for these armored cavalry, like a wall of the Sui heavy cavalry, Ashina Mohe although with the forward troops several assaults, but can not break through the Sui army's line of advancing cavalry line, after entering the white-knuckle battle, the Sui army's lance and mace, compared with the Turkic cavalry's accustomed sabers and spears, is more advantageous, every round, will fall a large number of Turkic cavalry, and the Sui knights, relying on the protection and weapons far superior to the Turkic soldiers, the losses were much smaller.

When the fierce battle between the two sides was in full swing, the Turkic guard troops were raided by Dou Jiande, these Sui knights, mostly like Dou Jiande, were bullies and hooligans rampant in the countryside in Hebei, good at horsemanship, brave and abnormal, and there were warriors like Dou Jiande to lead the charge, just like a torrent of steel, and like a steel sword out of the sheath, directly cut through the rear of those Turkic knights, and went straight to the golden wolf banner of Ashina Mohe.

If it was replaced by ordinary cavalry, even if there were thousands, it would have been dispersed by Dou Jiande's desperate assault style, but the Turkic cavalry can be described as the best rangers on the grassland, even if it is a cavalry team that wears heavy armor and is mainly engaged in hand-to-hand combat, Ashina Mohe himself rushed left and right in the Sui army formation, relying on the escort of the three thousand generals' guards, like an earthy yellow torrent, rolling back and forth in a sea of people composed of shiny white armor of the Sui army, which made Dou Jiande unlucky and rushed around, The distance from the golden wolf banner is close and far, often after the battle, to open a vacancy, but to find that the golden wolf banner has changed direction, but it is farther.

The cavalry of the two sides rushed back and forth for more than an hour, the Turkic cavalry lost more than 7,000 people, nearly half, and almost all the teams suffered heavy casualties, while the Sui cavalry lost more than 3,000 people, nearly half of the casualties came from Dou Jiande's department, Dou Jiande himself was covered in blood, with more than ten feather arrows inserted in his body, and even there were at least twenty arrow shafts on the mount.

Dou Jiande slammed a spear and stabbed a Turkic warrior who had fought with him in front of him for more than 40 rounds off his horse, and before he died, the Turkic warrior also flew up a stick and smashed it heavily on Dou Jiande's left arm, a piece of arm armor was broken into three pieces, and they fell down one after another, and Dou Jiande's left arm felt as if it had been hit by a mountain, and a strange sound sounded between the bones, and then he lost consciousness, but he couldn't even lift it.

Dou Jiande endured the severe pain in his left arm, laughed, pulled the reins of the horse with his right hand, and the front two hooves of the war horse were raised high, like a human being, and smashed down heavily, and stepped on the chest of the Turkic warrior who fell off the horse.

Sun Anzu, who was full of beard, came to Dou Jiande's side, and saw that Dou Jiande was pulling the long lance out of the Turkic warrior's corpse on the ground with one hand, and sighed: "Boss, you are not lightly injured, do you want to go down for treatment?" ”

Dou Jiande looked up to the sky and laughed: "Anzu, what are you talking about, it's been a long time since I've killed like today, we're 1,500 people, but it's disrupted the formation of the entire Turkic army, the golden wolf banner is in front of us, as long as we work harder, we can rush over!" ”

Sun Anzu wiped the blood and sweat marks on his face and said, "Boss, our brother, you have broken a lot. Of the fifteen hundred, only five or six hundred remained. Two hundred old brothers we brought from Hebei. More than half of them were also lost. If I continue to fight, I'm afraid that the old book will be broken! ”

Dou Jiande was so angry just now, he didn't care about the people around him, he was slightly stunned when he heard this, and looked around, but he saw that the cavalry behind him was less than six hundred, almost all of them were covered in blood, and they were as far as his eyes could see. Everywhere there were the corpses of soldiers and horses on both sides, the blood on the ground had been shed into small pools, and the wails of the dying and wounded almost drowned out the sound of horses' hooves that had thundered at the beginning, and penetrated into the ears of every soldier.

The infantry of the Sui army was also put into battle, and after the cavalry charge greatly reduced the sprint speed of the Turkic cavalry, there was almost no cavalry on this battlefield that could assault at full speed as at the beginning, almost all of them were based on hundred-man cavalry units, and the cavalry fought between them, without worrying about the Sui infantry rushing back and forth for the cavalry. They also scattered into teams of 50 to 100 people and formed a phalanx. The periphery was protected by shields, and the long-lance men on the periphery stared at the lone Turkic cavalry to stab, and they were even more merciless to the Turkic wounded soldiers who fell off their horses, all of them were stabbed to death, and then cut off their heads and tied them around their waists for reward.

Xue Wanshu's cavalry also joined the battle at this time, and the Turkic rearguard troops fought with Dou Jiande's department for more than an hour, and they had already suffered heavy losses and had no sharp spirit.

Dou Jiande gritted his teeth: "Grandma is a bear, she fought for a long time, but she made a wedding dress for others, no wonder the surname Xue was so kind, and handed over 1,500 cavalry to me as the commander of the brigade, it turned out to be for me to consume the sharp spirit of the Turks, Anzu, don't be abrupt, start collecting people's heads, you can't die so much, but the credit is given to that little child!" ”

Sun Anzu hesitated for a moment: "Boss, are you really not rushing at the wolf flag of the Turkic general?" ”

Dou Jiande spat on the ground hatefully: "The three sons surnamed Xue are all blocked there, and in my opinion, almost two thousand people have died, and he will give us this credit?" Now is not the time to grab the merits, just collect the heads of the people we killed, don't worry about anything else, let them toss it! ”

Ashina Mohe has already rushed back and forth for seven times, and the soldiers around him are fighting less and less, but the Sui army in front of him is fighting more and more, and he can no longer care about the movement of the rear army, the screams in Turkic language, and the shouts of killing that are getting closer and closer have already explained a qiē.

Now the remnants of Ashina Mohe's guards and the former army, adding up to more than 3,000 people, have been surrounded by the iron cavalry of the Sui army on all sides, pressing this last bit of living space smaller and smaller, and the formation is getting flatter and flatter, squeezed into the remaining space in the square radius, the rear row of the Sui army's cavalry keeps shooting bursts of arrows into the sky, no need to aim, every arrow down, almost will hit the target fiercely.

The arrows that flew more than ten zhang into the air and then fell high, with huge kinetic energy and armor-piercing power, shot through the iron armor and bronze helmets of these Turkic cavalry, making them fall like raindrops, and in contrast, the blind and desperate bows and arrows of the Turkic knights fought back, but they were so pale and powerless, if the bows and arrows of the Sui army on the opposite side were a storm, and at this time, the counterattack of the Turkic knights could only be regarded as a burst of drizzle that came and went at most.

On the sand dunes in the north, a big banner with the word "Xue" was set up, and Xue Shixiong, dressed in bright light armor and red robes, was already under the protection of his three sons who had killed blood-stained robes, and stood at the top of the sand dunes leisurely, with dense infantry cavalry behind him. According to Turkic customs, only the commander of the headquarters, that is, the general, is qualified to wear such a helmet, even judging from the records of these three people, most of the troops under Ashina Mohe have been completely wiped out along with their leader.

The soldier with the golden wolf banner beside Ashina Mohe was shot through the iron helmet by an arrow, screamed, and fell down from the horse, and the golden wolf banner had already been shot by arrows, and at this time, with the death of this soldier, it slowly fell down.

Ashina Mohe roared angrily, and copied this banner, this is already the seventeenth flag guard soldier he died in battle today, but two guards who have been inserted with a lot of arrows have been drilled out of the back, rushing to continue to carry the banner, the Turkic crossbow loses the customs of the tribe, lives hard, and regards the battlefield death as the supreme honor, and the old man who dies on the bed will become a laughing stock that everyone looks down on, which is also the reason why the 15,000 people under Ashina Mohe's department have not collapsed in battle until now, and no one has fled!

Ashina Mohe firmly grasped the golden wolf banner in his hand, and shouted: "All of them will step back for me!" Pass on my order, all the living warriors, attack the Sui army commander above the sand dunes ahead! Even if you die the last person left, you have to take off the head of the enemy general! Take off the head! ”

All the Turkic soldiers who were still able to move let out a burst of wolf wails before death, both tragic and high-pitched, like the last angry cry of a trapped beast in a desperate situation! The golden wolf banner began to move forward, and more than 2,000 Turkic cavalrymen, who were covered in wounds, once again braved the rain of arrows like dark clouds in the air, and launched the final assault on the dense Sui cavalry array in front!

The Sui cavalry in the north also began to reverse the impact, the iron flow of the two cavalry collided fiercely, a sound of people turning over on their backs, Ashina Mohe's left hand broadsword, right hand mace swinged, more than ten Sui cavalry who wanted to get close to him fell like fallen leaves, and the Turkic knights who followed him saw that the commander was so brave, all of them shook their spirits, and rushed wildly, there were actually more than 1,000 people, who broke out of the battlefield of this melee, and went straight to Xue Shixiong under the banner of Xue Zi three miles away!

Less than a mile away from this cavalry array, there is a cavalry line lined up, there are more than 1,000 people, Xue Wanjun, who was still counting the heads just now, has already stood in front, with a wave of the long lance, the cavalry line slowly moved forward, and went straight to the opposite Turkic cavalry, and Xue Wanjun himself was patting his horse and raising his lance, and went straight to Ashina Mohe who was rushing to the front!

The two horses staggered by, the war horse galloping at full speed, raised two clouds of smoke and dust, and crossed the entire sky, followed by two waves of cavalry lines that were surging like a tide, under the camouflage painted on Xue Wanjun's face, the horizontal flesh on his face was beating, and a long lance danced like a windmill, sometimes hovering overhead, sometimes echoing on the side, and the constantly beating lance was like the head of a poisonous snake raised up, spitting letters, and never leaving the key point of the main general who was wearing bright silver armor and wearing a demon face on the opposite side!
