Chapter 355: The Avengers
"Kill!"
As if to confirm Zhan Lingyun's words, the Tang army, which had already been ambushed at the other end of the valley, rushed out like a tiger opening the gate.
Although they were ragged and held the most dilapidated weapons, the momentum of going forward and dying with the enemy made the Xia army, who had just escaped to death, have their hearts and souls broken.
After a stone rain, the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom suffered heavy casualties, and the narrow valley was full of corpses, and blood flowed out of the stone crevices, looking like purgatory on earth. Even the bearded man who escaped had already messed up his formation, and he had no fighting spirit at all, and at this time, listening to the roar in the sky, one by one was even more shocked.
"Kill me!" Horrell roared.
It's a pity that the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom have suddenly encountered a great change, and they have long lost their will to fight. On the one hand, he was tired and frightened, and on the other hand, he came prepared, and the result can be imagined.
"Peng!"
As the first Datang general to rush into the enemy camp cut off the head of the bearded man with a desperate face with a knife, the Datang soldiers marched forward and rushed into the enemy formation in an instant.
When the narrow road meets, the brave wins. In normal times, it would be the best choice for Horel to withdraw his troops, but at present, the people of the Xia Kingdom have no way to retreat, and their only hope is to rush out.
Horel's eyes were red, and he hissed at the soldier who was scurrying with his head like a madman: "Kill! Kill me! Array! Hurry up! ”
Tang An stared intently at Xia Jun, who was like a trapped beast, and his eyes kept searching, and suddenly saw that Horel, who was riding on a horse, was hastily directing the beard to organize a counterattack, and his eyes lit up and said, "Sister fairy!" ”
Mu Rong leaned over, his eyes like a knife: "Who to kill?" ”
Tang An pointed at Horrear: "Did you see that guy in red?" That's him! Hmph, on the battlefield, he actually wrapped himself like a red envelope, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was the boss, and sure enough, he was laying on the floor next to the dung pit - looking for! ”
Horel, who was on the cusp of the storm, felt that he was about to collapse, with rocks flying over his head from time to time, and in front of him was the Tang Army, which was like a flood, and defeat seemed to be a foregone conclusion. He regretted that he had not listened to Hazy's admonition, but to this day, no matter how much he regretted it, there was only one way to survive.
"Kill!"
As soon as the word "kill" was shouted, Horrell suddenly felt a piercing chill, as if death had silently descended on him, whispering in his ear.
He turned his head suddenly, his pupils suddenly constricted.
In the reflection of his eyes, a white robe fluttered in. A woman who fell from the sky was like a fairy in the heavenly palace, so beautiful that it was breathtaking.
Horrell didn't have time to wonder how such a stunning woman could appear on the battlefield, no time to appreciate her beautiful beauty, no time to give orders. He could only watch the white figure moving with the wind getting closer and clearer.
When the two of them were close at hand, Horel realized that although the woman was staring at her, her eyes seemed to be unfocused, and she looked down indifferently at the beings, as if she was already a dead person in her eyes.
Holland only felt that his mind was blank, and only a beautiful face like a peach blossom kept magnifying in front of him. When the face was so close, he heard the woman say two words to him.
Good bye.
He doesn't understand the Datang language, and he doesn't need to understand it anymore. For he suddenly noticed that the woman had ghostly swept out her right hand, and then, the long knife that had followed him in the north and south appeared in her hand.
"Whew!"
The cold light flashed, and Horrell only felt that his throat was hot, and the whole person seemed to fly. Looking down, I saw that my body was still sitting on the back of the horse, but there was a flat red incision on my neck.
Others, on the other hand, saw a head flying into the air.
The chaotic battlefield, the beautiful woman, the red blood, the commander who died. This poignant picture made some of the beards around him stunned, and only one voice remained in his mind.
Holland is dead, we're finished!
When the generals of the Great Tang Dynasty saw that the enemy's main general was killed, they were immediately greatly encouraged, and according to the plan that Tang An had told them in advance, they all shouted loudly in Xia Chinese: "The main general is dead, and he must not surrender quickly!" ”
The overwhelming persuasion made the beard's psychological defense completely collapse. Facing the Tang Army, who was full of murderous intent, and looking at the companions who couldn't stop falling, some people closed their eyes in despair and slowly threw their weapons to the ground.
"Boom!"
As the first knife landed, the second, the third, one by one gave up resistance.
They naively thought that as long as they surrendered, they could at least exchange for a chance to live. However, when a Tang Dynasty man slashed at a Xia Guoren who had already raised his hands, they panicked again.
The soldiers who surrendered did not escape the bad luck of death, and the butcher knives of those Tang people had no intention of stopping, and every time the knife went down, a life was taken away. It wasn't until more and more people fell that they understood a truth: these Tang people had no intention of letting them leave alive, they wanted to kill them all!
"Don dog who doesn't keep his word! You said you would surrender and not kill! A Xia native roared angrily.
Li Dazhuang, who was in the enemy formation, smiled cruelly: "Lao Tzu only said that he would let you surrender, but he didn't say that he would not kill!" ”
As soon as the words fell, there was another knife, and the man who spoke before fell forever with humiliation and unwillingness in his eyes.
In the valley, dust and nitrate are everywhere, and even the yellow sand is dyed red. The voice of resistance grew weaker and weaker, until the last man uttered the last scream of his life, which put an end to this war without suspense.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty cheered indulgently, as if the mountains were not corpses, but trophies symbolizing honor.
After experiencing countless pains and tribulations, they finally swept away the depression in their hearts today and ushered in a hearty victory!
How long has it been since they felt this exhilarating feeling?
After Chen Buping glanced around, he said with a happy face: "Congratulations to the general, our army completely annihilated the enemy in this battle, but it is a pity that thirty-six brothers were broken, and more than a hundred people were injured. ”
With 3,000 against 4,000, at the cost of 36 lives in exchange for the annihilation of the opponent, I am afraid that it is difficult for anyone to believe this kind of record.
Zhan Lingyun nodded and led everyone down the hill. The grizzled soldiers in the valley were still high-fives, but when they saw the old general coming, everyone stopped making noise and looked at the latter with a look of hope.
"Bunnies." Looking at the soldiers supporting each other in the valley, Zhan Lingyun was silent for a moment, and suddenly said loudly: "Well done!" ”
"Oh-"
Cheers rang out in the sky, and everyone waved their fists with great pride and joy. With their own actions, they proved that they deserved the reputation of being the iron-blooded division of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty.
Zhan Lingyun waved his hand, and waited until the surroundings were quiet before saying, "Although we won this battle, we have a long way to go, and we still have a long way to go." But Lao Tzu believes that we will definitely be able to go out, fight out, and kill out! ”
All the soldiers' faces were resolute, and this battle completely broke their confidence. What if you can't hit it? It's nothing more than a life.
"This battle can be exchanged for the greatest victory at the smallest cost, and Lord Tang and Fairy Mu have made great contributions! If it weren't for Lord Tang's plan, taking advantage of the terrain to launch an ambush, and Mu Xianzi attacking and killing the enemy boss, we would never have won so easily. Zhan Lingyun said again, "Here, the old man apologizes for his previous contempt. You two - indeed our reinforcements! ”
"Tang An! Tang An! Tang An! Tang An! ”
The cries of the soldiers came and went, if they had only a slight impression of Tang An's willingness to be punished for Ji Chen before, then at this time, this feeling had become a complete acceptance.
If it weren't for his plan, with the defeat of these remnants of the army who hated the people of the Xia Kingdom incomparably, they would definitely risk their lives to fight with them. But now the ending is that the Tang army paid the smallest price, in exchange for the brilliant record of annihilating the opponent. Could there be a better ending than this?
Zhan Lingyun waved his hand, signaled the soldiers to stop the hustle and bustle, turned his head and nodded encouraged: "Tang An, you have the most credit for this battle, let's say a few words to the soldiers!" ”
Hey, this old guy seems to have a lot of value for Lao Tzu!
Seeing everyone staring at him with burning eyes, Tang An took a step forward and said loudly: "In fact, Tang An is just a strategist who is making suggestions behind the scenes, and it is you who really go into battle to kill the enemy and fight bloodily!" Tang An would like to offer his highest respect to all the soldiers who defend the country, and I will say to you on behalf of the tens of millions of people in the Tang Dynasty - thank you! ”
No one spoke, but the pride on everyone's face could not be hidden. What did they forsake their homes and careers to fight against the fiercest of enemies in this barren land? What do these soldiers who regard honor as everything need most?
Just like the common people want to live a prosperous life, in fact, what they need is the recognition and praise of the common people. Perhaps a lifetime of heartfelt gratitude can make them feel worth more than real money.
"But -- the battle is not over yet, and now we have a very important thing to do." Tang An said loudly.
Everyone was a little confused: the opponent has been completely wiped out, what else is there to do?
Tang An smiled slightly and said, "Grab something!" The armor on those Xia Guo's beards, the dry food in the baggage, the water in the pot, the money in the pocket, and the horses on the horse all had to be robbed! Fuck, why are they only allowed to rob us? Starting today, we're going to grab them! robbed them without clothes, hungry, worried, crying dad and calling mother! ”
"Haha!" The soldiers laughed, this Lord Tang was full of arrogance when he spoke, it was really happy!
"Rob them all! Grab them all! ”
Children can be taught. Tang An nodded with satisfaction, and said to Ling Yun: "Old general, this is not only the place where the beard of the Xia Kingdom is buried, but also the treasure land where we won the first battle, why don't you just give this nameless place a name, called 'Broken Soul Valley'?" ”
"Broken Soul Valley?" Zhan Lingyun chanted twice, and said with a smile: "Good name!" There were 4,000 troops, but they were annihilated by 3,000 remnants of the army without blood, and from now on, this place will become an eternal shame for the people of the Xia Kingdom. ”
Seeing that he agreed with his statement, Tang An was overjoyed and said, "Everyone, our scattered army does not have a name yet. Thinking that we are warriors fighting for revenge, Tang An dared to give our troops a name, called - The Avengers! ”
Zhan Lingyun obviously liked the name very much, and said: "Okay, live for revenge, die for revenge, from now on, we will be called the Avengers!" ”
(How regrettable life has been since ancient times, when can the red ticket exceed 10,000?) )
