Chapter 67: Battle and Battle (4)
He Qi's face changed greatly, he often fought with the Cao army of the north, and he knew the style of the northland cavalry, these cavalrymen of the Jingnan army were actually well versed in the tactics of the northland cavalry, and even in some places, they were much better than the northland cavalry, they seemed to be very accustomed to galloping horses near these slippery tidal flats, and even temporarily changing direction was so smooth.
He Qi knew what these cavalrymen were going to do, but there was no way to stop it, so he could only say coldly: "Release!" ”
The crossbowmen pulled the crossbow machine one after another, and the arrows were fired at the fast-moving cavalry, but it had little effect, and the temporary change of direction still affected the accuracy of the crossbow machine.
The corners of Wang Chong's mouth curved an arc, and he said coldly: "Chong! ”
The cavalry cruising to the flank immediately rushed towards these foot soldiers, He Qi helplessly watched these cavalry rush towards his own soldiers, and closed his eyes helplessly, he had already seen the elite level of these cavalry, and naturally knew the consequences of these cavalry rushing to his own people from a weak place.
The screams, the sound of the horse's hooves hitting the shield, and the sound of broken bones were mixed with the sound of the Jingnan cavalry rushing to the back of the shield and the stunned crossbowman.
Without a shield to protect them, the crossbowmen who were still close to them were undoubtedly the most tragic class in the world, as if the ice and snow were melting, and He Qi watched as the crossbowmen under his command were cut and killed.
Looking at the empty lot on the west side, He Qi gave an order that he was afraid he would regret for the rest of his life: "West! Rush! ”
There were only two thousand cavalry, and in the end they still couldn't stop the thousands of foot soldiers of He Qi and Gan Ning, but at the wrong time, He Qi's troops rushed past Wang Chong's cavalry, which had not yet turned around and had not formed a formation.
Wang Chong was not in a hurry, he knew that the foot soldiers who fled in a panic were easier to deal with than the foot soldiers who stood still in place, and it was only a matter of time before they took care of these foot soldiers, and even the casualties were smaller.
Wang Chong reorganized the team, and Wang Ping's foot soldiers also arrived at the same time.
Gan Ning was behind He Qi's people, but he was extremely angry in his heart at the moment. If he stayed where he was, He Qi and himself would still have thousands of troops, and they could still fight, but at this moment, when he gave the order, he was extremely passive. There is already a way to live in the dead. The people will not stop and fight to the death.
And these cavalry will definitely chase and kill and slowly eat. These thousands of people, like this, still have nowhere to escape.
And it just so happened that his own people fell behind, and Gan Ning couldn't believe that He Qi didn't mean it. In Jiangdong, the subordinates are the capital of their own livelihood, and the level of your status depends on the number of your subordinates, Gan Ning looked angrily at the figure of He Qi who was running hard in front of him.
It turned out that what I saw was an illusion, so it was no wonder that I came here together. He wants to let himself take the lead in attacking the city, but it is just a ploy to preserve his strength.
As soon as Wang Chong's cavalry team sorted out the formation, Wang Chong immediately commanded the military horses to rush forward, but Wang Ping led the foot soldiers to follow slowly.
He Qi only had the open space on the west side in his eyes at this moment, where he clearly knew that Huang Gai and Pan Zhang's men and horses were cruising on the river. Once you reach the river, you have a very good chance of being saved.
But just as he thought, Huang Gai and Pan Zhang got Lu Meng's general order and were slowly approaching the middle.
Wang Chong's men caught up with He Qi and Gan Ning's men for the second time, but Gan Ning was extremely bitter. The troops in the rear are being eaten away by the Jingnan cavalry, and countless of their own troops are being devoured. or was shot down by arrows, or knocked down by spears, or even trampled to death by horses because they could not escape.
Gan Ning tried not to look at his own tragically killed subordinates, but was escorted by his personal guards to evacuate to the west.
On the surface of the river, dozens of Jiang sails appeared in the eyes of He Qi and other Jiangdong soldiers. It seems that they have found the Jiangdong soldiers who are fleeing, and the boats are turning around and coming by the river.
Wang Chong also saw these ships, and his heart was a little anxious, he knew that this was the case, and he should have decided quickly.
Gan Ning is in a different mood, no salvation, but he is extremely indignant, up to now, most of his men and horses have been lost, three thousand people, and now they are still on his side, looking at it, there are less than a thousand people.
He Qi led his subordinates desperately to the west side of the riverbank, just when he was about to rejoice, a group of men and horses from a dense forest to kill, led by a young general soap armor black gun, crotch a white horse, very powerful.
He Qi glanced at the big banner behind the young general, his handsome face was dark, and it was written 'General of the Han Zhen Army, Jingnan Dudu Huo'.
Huo Yi came in a very timely manner, and the three thousand men and horses could stop the place where He Qi and the other military horses went. Huo Yi looked at He Qi in front of him coldly, and sneered: "A certain is Huo Yi, the governor of Jingnan, and the thief will not be awarded?" ”
He Qi gasped, looking at Huo Yi angrily and timidly, but the long knife in his hand was not stable to hold, once a person was timid in the battle array, it would probably be difficult for him to pick up his courage.
Huo Yi didn't answer when he saw the enemy general, but he controlled the war horse and rushed straight to the scene.
The three thousand sergeants were even more silent, and they came straight to He Qi's people with Huo Yi.
He Qi said coldly: "Brothers, rushing over is the way to live!" Kill! ”
Huo Yi saw He Qi with gorgeous armor at a glance, and with a spear, he went straight to He Qi to kill.
He Qi barely gasped and rushed with a knife.
Huo Yi let out a long roar: "The power of ants also dares to regret the tree!" Death! ”
Huo Yi is extremely confident in his spear skills at the moment, and he also has a horsepower bonus, as long as he doesn't meet a first-class general, he will not be vain.
He Qi's long knife hit Huo Yi's gun, but it was a person with a knife and was knocked to the ground, He Qi rolled to the ground, with a force under his feet, and raised his knife to kill.
Huo Yi left the war horse and fought with a gun, He Qi was already frightened at the moment, and it was extremely laborious to escape, and the knife in his hand was already in vain, only three or two rounds, he was wrenched by Huo Yi with a shot, and the spear did not stop, penetrating He Qi's throat.
He Qi clutched his throat and slowly fell to the ground. The eyes are full of unwillingness.
When Heqi's subordinates saw that the Lord was about to die in battle, and wherever there was still a will to fight, they all threw away their armor and surrendered, or sent their lives to flee.
Gan Ning saw all this, but he was not in the mood to gloat, but his situation was also extremely embarrassing, Wang Chong's cavalry was chasing behind, Huo Yi's military horses were blocking in front, and there was no way to go to the sky, and there was no way to enter the ground.
Gan Ning was originally an outlaw, and at this moment he also knew that only a battle could get out, but the remaining foot soldiers under his command had already lost the morale of the army, and his old subordinates only had dozens of people, most of whom were lost in the earlier siege battle.
Under the First World War, he didn't believe that with these personal horses he could survive in the hands of the world-famous Huo Yi, and he was also injured. It's just to kill a few people, so that they don't die too ugly.
Gan Ning knew that he couldn't escape, so he simply stopped, and the small half of his subordinates on his side also followed him to stop in place, spontaneously gathering together and protecting Gan Ning in the middle.
Huo Yi discovered this resolute-looking and explosive man early, and Huo Yi commanded the military horses to surround these people.
Wang Chong also caught up with him on horseback, and said coldly: "Who is you from Jiangdong?" ”
At this moment, the Heqi tribe was in chaos, with Wang Ping's foot soldiers and Wang Chong's cavalry cleaning up.
And everyone's vision was surrounded by this group of more than 100 people who were defeated but seemed to be fighting to the death.
Gan Ning pushed away the guards who were protecting him, walked out, put the knife in his hand still on the ground, and said coldly: "Release my subordinates, I can go back with you!" ”
Huo Yi snorted coldly: "It seems that you don't have anything to say about this situation, right?" I won't let these people go, and you will die and become a captive!" ”
Gan Ning's eyelids blinked twice, and he seemed to see that Huo Yi was not easy to mess with.
Wang Chong pointed at these subordinates, and said coldly: "If you don't put down your blade and surrender, you will be dead!" ”
Gan Ning nodded helplessly, and these subordinates slowly put their blades on the ground and stood with their hands tied.
"It's all tied!" Wang Ping said coldly, and his own troops stepped forward and tied up these soldiers.
Huo Yi looked at Gan Ning, his eyes were full of playfulness: "If my guess is right, you are Gan Xingba of Eastern Wu?" ”
Gan Ning's eyes froze, but he lowered his head helplessly.
Huo Yi smiled: "Tie up, return to the army!" ”
Huang Gai in the river was still directing the warship to approach the riverbank, but he saw all this, but the situation was irreparable. Although there were nearly 100 escaped soldiers calling for help by the riverside, Huang Gai had no choice but to order the withdrawal of the army.
