Chapter 19: Life After Death

The Turks dug through the nearby frozen creek and soaked dozens of large trees in the water, including the attacking soldiers, who poured water over their heads, and in front of the wet tree wall, the rockets of the Don army failed.

Du Luo Xian threw nearly a thousand men into the attack, and he personally commanded it, behind dozens of big trees, followed by a dense crowd of Turgish people, who ran in small steps, shouting slogans one after another.

"The gods protect us!"

......

"Kill all enemies!"

The slogan was mixed with the howling of the Dura Immortal Wolf: "Rush in, wealth and women are up to you!" ”

The Turgish people shouted wildly, accelerating towards the valley mouth, the Tang army's arrows were still strong and dense, but the arrows were hindered by the branches and leaves, which greatly reduced the lethality, and the Tang army's attack began to be weak.

The Turgish people are getting closer and closer, the people in front are holding the trunks, and the people behind are holding the saddle high, resisting the rain of arrows from the Tang army's parabola, they seem to be a large group of Gobi wolves, approaching the valley mouth in black pressure, and the Turgish people are constantly dying of arrows, but immediately someone takes his place.

'Ahh With a scream, a short Tang soldier was shot through the throat by an arrow and fell to the ground and died on the spot, and with another scream, a Tang soldier on the stone wall was hit by an arrow and rolled down from the stone wall.

The Turgishes had already jumped over the trench, less than fifty paces from the Tang army's bunker, and in the moonlight, they were overwhelming, and they were densely lined down from the gourd-shaped valley mouth, at least a thousand people.

Li Qing'an bit his lip tightly, his arrows were like meteors, one arrow after another, each arrow would have a person screaming and falling to the ground, in a moment, more than twenty people were killed, but there were too many enemies, they had rushed to twenty steps away, under the moonlight, each of them was clothed, soaked, hideous and vicious.

Li Qing'an's gaze became very serious, the enemy was too close, and the crossbow arrows were useless, and he suddenly ordered loudly: "The first team gets on the horse and uses cavalry to attack them!" ”

He turned over his horse and shouted to the Tang army: "Brothers, let the Tuqi Shi people taste the power of the Tang cavalry." ”

...........

Li Qing'an danced the lance, jumped out of the bunker on the horse, and went straight to the Tuqi Shi people to kill, more than 50 Tang soldiers also got on their horses, brandished the horse lance and rushed up with him, the front of the Tuqi Shi people were frightened by the sudden Tang army, they threw down the tree trunk, rushed to meet the battle, how could the Tang army rush up was extremely violent, a company was stabbed over dozens of people, but the Tuqi Shi people behind were like a wave to come, and the Tang army fought together.

Li Qing'an was covered in blood, the Tang army around him kept falling off his horse and was killed, in the face of the crazy siege of dozens of enemies, Li Qing'an was not afraid, the knife split, the lance, the corpse was already lying in wait beside him, the blood flowed like a river, he suddenly caught a glimpse of He Yanming behind him had led the army on the horse, ready to come to respond, and couldn't help shouting angrily: "He Yanming, you dare to leave your post without permission!" ”

He Yanming took a step back in fright, and Li Qing'an's order came from his ears, "If I die in battle, He Yanming will take over as the commander." ”

He Yanming looked at Li Qing'an blankly, looking at his face that had been blurred by blood, tears flowed out of He Yanming's eyes, no! He can't die, at least not so lonely, suddenly, the courage of the Han nation hidden in the bottom of his heart was slowly stimulated, he drew his horizontal knife, and roared wildly, "Brothers, the time has come to be loyal to the country." ”

He rushed up on horseback, grabbed the helmet of a Tuqi Shi, and cut his neck with a knife, more than 50 Tang soldiers rushed up with a roar, the monstrous murderous aura forced their eyes red, the Tang army's morale was suddenly boosted, nearly 100 people wantonly killed in the dense enemy army, the Tuqi Shi people finally became timid, turned around and fled, leaving hundreds of corpses in the pursuit of the Tang army, and fled in embarrassment.

......

The battlefield calmed down temporarily, Li Qing'an sat on a big rock, a soldier bandaged his wounds with gauze, he was hit by two knives and an arrow, but neither of them hurt the vital point, one of which was more serious in the face, cutting a deep and long wound.

He Yanming knelt in front of him and pleaded guilty, "The subordinates left their posts without permission, please send the general." ”

Li Qingan stared at him and said in a deep voice: "Disobeying military orders is a capital crime, but I remember that you have a meritorious service in killing the enemy, so as to save you from death, from now on, you will be convinced by demoting you to the commander of the gang?" ”

"The subordinates are convinced, and General Xie is not killed."

At this time, Han Jinping limped over, he followed Li Qingan to kill together, and his leg was also cut.

"The general, together with those who were shot, twenty-one brothers were killed and thirty-five wounded."

Li Qing'an sighed, "Write down their names, collect the relics, and send them home with the ashes in the future." ”

He looked at the sky again, and it was already four watches, so he stood up and said: "This is not the way to go, after dawn it will be beneficial to the enemy, if they launch another similar attack, we may be completely annihilated, we must adopt another way?" ”

"Does the general have any good ideas?"

Li Qing'an nodded slowly, "I have just discovered that most of these turks are not regular troops, it is estimated that they are ordinary herdsmen, and they will retreat after the slightest casualties, according to my experience, as long as they kill their leaders, they will be disheartened and withdraw to the broken leaves." ”

"I saw their leader, about thirty years old, and he was hiding behind him." He Yanming interjected.

"That's right! It's that person, Du Luoxian, our old friend. Li Qing'an picked up his bow and arrow, he looked at the cliff, and said with a slight smile: "I didn't shoot him last time, this time I want to shoot this person with an arrow!" ”

He Yanming and Han Jinping were taken aback at the same time, and He Yanming hurriedly stopped him, "How can you let the general take the risk, let me go." ”

Li Qingan glared at them, "This is my military order, who dares to disobey the order!" ”

"Burn trees and enemy corpses with fire oil to keep them from attacking for a while, and buy me time."

Li Qing'an cleaned up a little, put a bow and a pot of arrows on his back, pinned the horizontal knife to his waist, and walked quickly to the cliff, the cliff is about a dozen zhang high, straight and steep, there is no place to climb, but because there are two sentries hidden on the top of the mountain, a long rope was thrown from the cliff, you can climb the rope, Li Qingan tied the rope around his waist.

He was just about to give a signal to the top when a slender figure suddenly appeared beside him, "General Li, where are you going?" ”

It was Shi Julan, she saw Li Qingan when he was bandaging the wound, but Li Qingan was naked, she was embarrassed to step forward, she saw Li Qingan walking towards the cliff alone, so she quietly followed.

Under the moonlight, she suddenly saw Li Qing'an's face, and couldn't help exclaiming, "General Li, your face..."

"I've got a little injury, don't get in the way, you can go back to your place quickly!"

"Nope! Let me see. ”

Shi Julan stubbornly stepped forward, she stroked the long wound distressedly, "Does it hurt?" ”

"It hurts a little."

Li Qingan grabbed her waist, pointed to the wound and smiled: "If you kiss it, it won't hurt." ”

Shi Julan's towering chest rose and fell violently, a trace of brilliance flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she slowly stretched out her arm to wrap her arms around Li Qing'an's neck, but her soft red lips kissed his lips at once, and she dedicated the girl's precious first kiss to the hero in her heart.

Li Qing'an was drunk, he hugged the beautiful girl tightly, and drank her fragrance, suddenly Li Qing'an pushed her away, looked up to the sky and laughed: "I'm going, I want to use Du Luoxian's head as a wine vessel, and drink the celebration wine with you!"
