Chapter 51: Night Attack (5)

Xiao Quzhi stood in the saddle and looked at the Dashi military camp from a distance, the two camps in the north were almost disabled at this time, and there were no more than forty percent of the combat capacity. The big food lord was giving a lecture at this time to boost morale, although he couldn't understand what he was saying, but looking at the posture, it seemed that he wanted to give up the two camps and go to the two camps in the south to organize the forces to fight again.

But it's really tenacious, so it's not a roar, and it even wants to organize a counterattack, such an army can be called a strong army. However, since you're going to fight, let's fight, and I'll see how many teams you can pull up to fight me!

Xiao Qubing sat down from the saddle, turned his horse's head and faced the five hundred Anxi cavalry who were on standby behind him, and the one hundred and fifty patrol cavalry who came to receive the order, and at this time there was no longer a patrol.

Xiao Qubing glanced at them and shouted loudly: "Brothers, our two attacks have already caused the Great Food Army to lose more than a thousand combat strength. Of the four camps, two to the north have been completely destroyed, and the other two have also been in great disarray. But this army of the Great Food has not collapsed, has not been defeated, and they are still preparing to come out of the camp to fight us. Such an opponent deserves our respect! They are now reorganizing their army, and they are definitely not convinced now, they must have thought that we would only attack by sneak! They thought that they would be able to defeat us in battle, and they wanted to use this to regain confidence and boost morale. ”

Xiao Qubing suddenly pulled the reins with his left hand, and the little red horse stood up, Xiao Qubing held the big gun in his right hand and raised it high, and the front hooves of the little red horse fell to the ground heavily, digging up two big pieces of dirt on the ground, Xiao Qubing raised his arms and shouted: "They are dreaming, and now, we are going to defeat them again in the battle formation, completely crush their confidence, and completely wear out their morale!" Let these big dogs turn around and run away in fright when they see the figure of our Anxi Army in the future, and let them be scared and tremble when they hear the name of our Anxi Army!

Now, we are facing such a group of enemies, and their morale is low; They were skeptical; They mustered the last courage to fight us. If we give them one more head-on blow, they'll be completely defeated! Victory is at hand, and now, it's up to you to see if you dare to follow me and kill them all! Do you dare or don't dare? ”

Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou raised the horse lance in their hands and yelled loudly: "Why don't you dare!" ”

Bai Xiaode and Amir Jiang also immediately roared excitedly: "Why don't you dare! ”

Behind them, 650 officers and men of the Anxi Army shouted in unison: "Why don't you dare! ”

The blood warriors of the Anxi Army, who were not lacking, were suddenly mobilized to the top by Xiao Quai, and they were full of confidence in defeating the Great Cannibal at the moment. Even if Xiao Qubing took them to attack the cannibal camp at this time, they would not hesitate to follow. The army is a monster cultivated with honor and victory, and as long as you can lead them to victory, the soldiers will naturally trust and obey you. Otherwise, no matter how nice it is, they won't believe you.

Xiao Quzhi looked up at the sky, called Amir Jiang to his side and gave a few orders, and then turned his head to look at the big food camp: "Brothers, the big food army is almost ready, let's go and say hello to them!" ”

Compared with the confidence and high morale of the Anxi army, at this moment, the Dashi military camp is gloomy. The scene of fire and rain falling from the sky just now has frightened these religious warriors who sincerely believe in Hu Da. Immediately after that, the frightened horses galloped wildly, crashed and killed, and injured hundreds of food soldiers, and the whole camp was filled with a miserable wail.

The Great Cannibal had completed the army at this time, and there were 1,800 war horses in the two camps in the south. The soldiers plus those from the northern camp were still more than 2,400 people who could fight, but they were all frightened and their morale was extremely low.

Asimu was in a dilemma, although he had already discovered that the number of Anxi troops who had attacked this group was not very large. But when you fight at night, the other party is prepared, and it is easy to be ambushed. But if you don't fight, the morale is so low now, in case the other party goes around to the south camp and comes back to the rocket, I am afraid that the whole army will collapse immediately.

The most important thing is that this night attack by the Anxi army has made the entire army frightened, and he sees deep fear in everyone's eyes. If you can't defeat your opponent now, the team will be ruined.

After hesitating for a moment, Asimu still decided to leave the camp and fight to the death!

He shouted to his soldiers: "Great Khorasan warriors, noble Mawaris! Who overthrew the apostate Umayyad and defeated the armies of the Umayyad caliphate many times? ”

More than 2,000 Khorasan religious warriors were stunned for a moment and shouted in unison: "It's us!" ”

"Then who is it that crisscrosses the river, countless times with fewer enemies, killing the Zhaowu Nine ** team and fleeing?"

The shouts were louder: "It's still us!" ”

"Then who is favored by Hu Da, since the formation of the army, he has won a hundred battles, and he can always turn danger into a disaster every time?"

The shouts reached their climax: "It's still us!" ”

Asimu was about to say something, but at this moment, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the camp, and the soldiers standing on the lookout also raised the alarm. He immediately shouted: "Get ready for battle, pay attention to crossbow arrows, raise your shield!" ”

The big cannibal, who had already suffered a loss, had learned a lot this time and had already taken precautions, and this attack by the Anxi army did not cause much damage to the big cannibal. Most of the feathered arrows were fended off by the iron round shield, and after a "ding, ding, ding......ding" sound of metal colliding, the casualties were counted, and only more than twenty people were killed and more than forty were injured. But compared with the previous time of more than 200 casualties, this time it was much better.

"See, the Anxi dog thief is also capable of this, nothing to be afraid of! They will only sneak attack, fight head-on, they will never be our opponents! Asim let out a long breath and shouted.

Asimu knew very well that the Anxi army did not use a cavalry bow this time, but a single-bow crossbow used by the infantry. This strong crossbow has the strength of two stones, and ordinary people cannot wind it with their hands, they can only step on it with one foot and buckle the string with both hands. This crossbow has an effective range of 160 paces, and can pierce armor within 120 steps, which is amazingly powerful. The only drawback is that the winding speed is slow, which is difficult on flat ground and even slower on horseback. If the Anxi army used this kind of crossbow in a head-on battle, Asimu was very sure that he would be able to win.

"Hu Da bless, you will win!"

"Hu Da bless, you will win!"

Somewhat self-defeatingly, after this blow, the morale of the Great Food Army was even higher......

The 1,600 cavalry of the Great Food Army had already left the camp and lined up, and nearly 800 people were guarding the camp to take care of the wounded. The Anxi army slowly retreated and stopped about two miles from the east wall of Dashi, and Asimu saw that there were few soldiers in Anxi, so he led a thousand cavalry to slowly press up.

When the two armies were five hundred paces apart, Xiao Qubing ordered loudly: "Two wings of sentinels, meet the enemy!" ”

A horn sounded, Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou took the order, and each led more than seventy sentinels to speed up from the two wings. Asimu immediately divided twice the number of Great Eclipse cavalry to drive forward, Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou immediately dispersed the team, forming a huge scimitar cavalry curtain on both wings, and the Great Eclipse cavalry accelerated with all their might, preparing to break through.

When the two sides approached seventy paces, Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou shouted: "Shoot!" Each of them shot his bow and arrow, and the one hundred and fifty sentinels who followed them, one of them, and together they detained the teeth of the crossbow. One hundred and fifty crossbow arrows whistled and fired at the pursuing Great Eater cavalry from three directions, clanging, the sound of fluttering sounded, blood splashed, and the screams of men and the neighing of war horses resounded together.

At least more than half of the crossbow arrows hit the target, and at this distance, a single bow crossbow that can break through armor at one hundred and twenty paces, and hit the big food soldiers or Arab war horses without armor, most of them died on the spot, and a few lucky ones were also seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness.

Asimu gritted his teeth when he saw it, if the Anxi army did not disperse and only fired crossbow arrows from the front, the casualties would definitely not be so serious. However, although the casualties were a bit high, the Anxi army had already shot crossbow arrows, and he didn't believe that under the pursuit of the Khorasan cavalry, they could still wind up on the horse! He couldn't help but shout: "They can't get on the string, rush up and kill them all!" ”

Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou shouted, and one hundred and fifty sentry horses rushed out towards the rear of the big cannibal army formation, scattering more and more along the way.

After the surviving two hundred cannibal cavalry chased out a few hundred paces, they were a little dazed and didn't know which direction to chase.

At this time, the Anxi army also began to rush towards the large array of the Great Food Chinese Army, and the two sides were three hundred and fifty steps apart. Xiao Qubing ordered loudly again, and the left and right wings were divided into one hundred and fifty horses, led by Bai Xiaode and another brigade commander named Song Xiaoshan, to accelerate the charge towards the two wings.

Unlike last time, Asim this time divided three times as many Khorasan cavalry in pursuit. The Anxi army's side was also different from last time, this time it did not disperse, nor did it fire crossbow arrows, but just sprinted with all its strength to compete with the speed of the Great Eclipse Cavalry.

At this time, there were still 400 cavalry left in the Great Food Central Army's array, and there were only 200 cavalry around Xiao Quai. The two sides were only more than 200 steps apart, and because of the opposite, each side only needed to run more than 100 steps. At this time, the horse's speed was about to reach its highest, and the distance of more than 100 steps only took seven or eight seconds.

Xiao Qu was sick and pulled out three carved arrows, and the arrows were fired. The Nine Stones' Heaven-Shaking Bow was instantly drawn three times, and a sharp sound of breaking the air sounded, and before the sound came, the arrow arrived first. Before everyone could react, three carved arrows accurately shot at Asimu in the middle of the Great Food Army Array. The first two arrows killed the three guards in front of Asim, and the third arrow pierced the throat of the guards in front of Asim, and the castration was unabated, and it was inserted into Asim's mouth, and the arrow pierced through the back of the head.
