Ten miles west of Sushana City, the capital of Dongcao, a large number of people with the surname Zhaowu were sweating like rain digging trenches and building camps. A team of Anxi troops was neatly tied up and ready to be on standby, and scouts outside the camp were sent out from time to time. Several Sogdian-speaking Anxi soldiers shouted to tell them not to be lazy and to speed up their progress.

Yesterday's frenzied looting and slaughter inspired the hatred and blood of these Zhaowu Nine Kingdoms. In the dead of night, these people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu, who followed the Anxi army during the day, looked for the big cannibals who oppressed them to take revenge, and killed people who were more ruthless than the Anxi army, suddenly began to be afraid again. I couldn't hold back for a while, and followed the Tang people to kill the big cannibal, which was tantamount to a complete break with the big cannibal. In the future, even if they want to surrender to the big cannibals and continue to be their slaves, they will not accept it.

It seems that at this time, they can only follow the Anxi army and the big cannibals to fight to the death, I only hope that the Anxi army is strong enough to really break through the city of Samad all the way as they said, and fight until they catch and drink. If not, the Anxi army will be defeated, and the big cannibals will kill them, and all the people surnamed Zhaowu in the Eastern Cao Kingdom will only be dead.

"Let's work hard, and get the fortifications repaired quickly. Yesterday we killed so many big cannibals, and today they will definitely come to take revenge. As soon as the high school arrives with the army, we will be able to fight all the way to Samad Jian, and then capture that and Posilin alive, and let all the big cannibals who oppress you turn around as your slaves. The big cannibals forcibly occupy your house, and you can take back all the land, and our Anxi army doesn't want any of you. ”

The people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu, who were working, cheered, and when they thought of being able to turn the big cannibal who had been oppressing them into their slaves, they felt a burst of joy in their hearts, and they couldn't say anything about it. As for the house mentioned later, they don't want all the land Anxi, they don't believe it. The Sogdians' fathers and sons calculated profits, and their own fathers and sons were still like this, and they lived by themselves, so how could the Anxi army come to help them without trying to do anything? I just hope that the Anxi Army will not think that the big cannibals are so brutal.

They worked so hard that they didn't need the Anthy soldiers to agitate on the sidelines. Out of instinctive fear of the big cannibal, as soon as he heard that the big cannibal was coming, he just wanted to dig the trench and set up the camp as soon as possible, so that he could feel at ease.

A civilian surnamed Zhaowu Jiu raised his head while digging the soil and asked, "Tang noble, when will Gao Gao Cheng bring the army here?" If the Great Food Army comes now, can we survive it? ”

The Anxi army was looking at him with slanted eyes, and said as a matter of course: "Gao Gao Cheng is in Hushu City now, and he must settle down there before he can come, right?" As for the Great Food Army, to be honest, I'm really afraid that they won't come, and we will kill as many as they come. ”

He said confidently, but he inevitably muttered in his heart, Zhongcheng, when will you bring a large army? We only have 1,000 cavalry here, and Duan Bei will sweep north with 2,000 cavalry. There are seven or eight thousand soldiers in the Eastern Cao Kingdom, but they are all afraid of eating like tigers, and if they really want to fight, not only can they not be used, but they must allocate a part of their forces to guard against them.

I hope the big dog will come later.

The person surnamed Zhaowu Jiu was a little relieved and lowered his head to dig the soil. The Anxi army was about to say something when they saw two sentry spies speeding towards them in the distance. He didn't bother to talk to them, and ran to the camp gate.

“…… Bai Xiaode's brigade commander reported urgently and won a big victory...... Five hundred to six hundred, annihilating the enemy! Before the team could get there, they heard two sentries shouting loudly from a distance.

As the team approached, one of the sentries was covered in blood and his face was covered with sweat and dust, but he couldn't hide the excitement on his face.

"A big win? Five hundred, six hundred? You tell me carefully. The lieutenant who stayed behind in the camp (the lieutenant here is an official lieutenant, the lieutenant of Anxi Mansion, Gu Xiaojun's position is a personal guard, the rank of Wusanguan is Xuanjie lieutenant, and the brigade commander is also a position, under the lieutenant) held back his joy and asked anxiously.

"Back to Captain Li, we intercepted the fleeing Great Cannibal on the road, and we were bumping into the six hundred elite cavalry that the Great Eclipse came to help...... If we didn't know that the White Brigade Marshal deliberately left those eight live mouths and asked them to go back to report the news, we would have annihilated the 600 cannibal cavalry. Now the white brigade marshal is building a Beijing temple in situ, and he sent me to report the news first. ”

"Bai Xiaode did a good job, Anxi Army! Wansheng! By the time he finished speaking, hundreds of Anxi troops in almost the entire camp had gathered around at this time. The captain of the Xifu Mansion named Li An Ping'an couldn't help but clapped his hands heavily and shouted loudly.

"Anxi Army! Wansheng! All the Anzai soldiers around him also responded excitedly and loudly. The people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu, who was digging a trench and setting up camp, kept looking at this side, but they didn't know what was going on. However, it should be a good thing to see that all the Anxi soldiers are excited and impassioned! Could it be that the high school marshal arrived with the army? No, if it's the news of the high school, the rumor should be from the east.

About half an hour later, when Bai Xiaode and the others came back with a bloodstain and more than 300 Arab war horses, all the people surnamed Zhaowu were stunned. The 500 cavalry of the Anxi Army fought against the 600 cavalry of Dashi, and completely annihilated the opponent at the cost of 105 killed and 68 seriously wounded. They did not doubt the veracity of this feat, as evidenced by the capture of more than 300 majestic Arab horses and more than 400 Damascus scimitars. Looking at the proud faces of these Anxi soldiers, you can see how beautiful they fought this battle.

When did the big food become so indifferent? Or is the Anxi army too strong? In this way, is it right to follow the Anxi army to fight big food?

All of a sudden, almost all the people with the surname Zhaowu were full of confidence in defeating the Great Cannibal. Here, Li Anping arranged for the wounded Anxi army to go into the city to heal his wounds, and the other soldiers went into the camp to rest. The Eastern Cao warriors who had already been here had entered the city to report the news to their king, Sheahu.

At this time, Bai Xiaode stayed near Jingguan and the sentinels sent by Li Anping also exchanged hands with the sentinels sent by Asim, the commander of the four thousand Khorasan religious warriors and the pioneer of the Great Food.

Perhaps due to the news of the defeat, coupled with the deterrent effect of Jingguan, or due to the superiority of the Anxi army's bow and arrow, they had the upper hand in the small-scale cavalry battle. The Sentinels of the Anxi Army chased and killed half of them for several miles, until they encountered more and more large food sentinels who received them, and then they had to stop the pursuit. At the beginning, more than a dozen Anxi sentinels actually firmly suppressed more than thirty big food sentinels.

It wasn't until the Great Eclipse Sentinel had an absolute numerical advantage that it began to press the Sentinels of the Anxi Army to the east. The two sides roughly kept a distance of about one or two hundred paces, and you chased after me. On the highway twenty or thirty miles away from the city of Sushana, or on the wasteland on both sides of the avenue, galloping across the road and delaying time.

"Boss, there are more and more big food sentinels, what should we do, do you want to withdraw first?"

"Withdraw your mother's withdrawal! We've already sent someone back to deliver the message, and now our mission is to find out how many people have come this time. There is no sentinel to detect useful military information, how can you say it when you go back? If we are going to be overtaken, we will run to the gravel ground, afraid of what will happen to him! ”

The Anxi sentry was about to speak, when he felt the earth begin to shake violently, and even the broken stones on the ground shook and jumped slightly. When I looked back, I saw countless cavalry rolling eastward, overwhelming the sky, and I couldn't see the edge at a glance. More than half of the sentinels had been scouts for several years, and they were accustomed to watching the number of enemy horses. After only a cursory glance, he already knew in his heart that this might would not be less than three thousand cavalry.

The Great Food Pioneer has finally arrived.

"Boss, what do you say?"

"You two hurry back and report, and say that the vanguard of the Great Eclipse, at least three or four thousand cavalry has arrived, and tell them to prepare to meet the enemy. Go quickly, and don't spare your horsepower! ”

When the two of them heard this, they immediately clamped the horse's belly, and the whole person stuck to the horse, holding the reins with one hand, and flicking the whip desperately with the other, and the four horses spread their hooves and ran out.

"Brothers, it's up to us now, hold off these pursuing sentry riders!"

The news that the Great Food Pioneer had arrived made Li Anping and Bai Xiaode's hearts rise, and the people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu who got the news were even more nervous. Fortunately, by this time the trench had been dug and the camp was sturdy and strong, and as soon as the fortifications were completed, and in another hour it would be dark.

Just in case, Li Anping immediately handed over the command of the front line to Bai Xiaode, flew to Su Xiangshana City, and asked the king of Dongcao to send troops to help defend the two military villages on the front line. What he didn't expect was that Shea Hu was very cooperative, and without saying a word, he immediately divided three thousand Dongcao soldiers under his command.

It's easy to think about Ahu, helping Anxi Jun at this time is helping himself. What's more, in another time and space, Ah Hu also made a table to Tang Xuanzong several times, asking for a big meal. And now that Anxi Jun is here, and his performance is so perfect, what reason does he have not to help?

Just when the Dongcao coalition army in Anxi was facing a great enemy, the knife was unsheathed, the bow was wound, and they were ready to fight, but the more than ten sentinels left behind by the team brought new news. The four thousand forwards of the Great Eclipse did not dare to attack immediately while it was still dark, but they set up camp ten miles away from the big camp and were busy digging trenches.

Li Anping and Bai Xiaode glanced at each other and laughed knowingly. The Great Food Army had already lost its courage in the first battle, and its spirit had been lost, and it unconsciously took a defensive position.

In this case, it is not difficult to break.

You must know that when the two armies compete, many times, it is morale, or a psychological advantage, that is the fight. It's like why the people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu can't win when they fight big cannibals, and they can't beat several times the number of people. The strength of the Great Food Army is naturally stronger than that of the Zhaowu Nine surnamed people, the weapons are also sharper, and the war horses are better. But if the people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu fought to the death with the big cannibal to the end, it would be difficult for the big food army to curry favor. The actual situation is that as long as the Great Food Army charges, the Zhaowu Nine ** team will unconsciously rout and flee.

And the armies of Shi Guo and Ning Yuanguo are actually similar to the armies of Kangguo, Anguo, and Mi Kingdom, why can they fight with the army of Dashi? To put it bluntly, the armies of these two countries are not afraid of the Great Food Eater in their hearts, especially since Ning Yuanguo has defeated the Great Food Army many times before. According to the soldiers of the Eastern Cao Kingdom, in the past, the Great Food Army in this situation rushed directly through it, but now they actually chose to camp first, and they also began to dig trenches.

This shows that the psychological advantage of the Great Food Army against the Zhaowu Jiu** team in the past no longer exists in front of the Anxi Army, and even subconsciously there is a faint fear of the other party.

Bai Xiaode's battle in the morning has already severely damaged the spirit of the Great Food Army!

The good news was not limited to this, shortly after nightfall, the follow-up troops of Hushu City arrived in Suzhenshana City, and Xiao Qubing and Amir Jiang arrived with three thousand Gelulu cavalry.
