Chapter 808: A Sharp Turn
The spear scimitar stabbed at the vulture's body together, but it could not penetrate the flesh in the slightest.
The vultures were furious, staring at the surrounding Wusun Army with blood-red eyes, even the Wusun Army who was not afraid of death was slightly startled, and then saw the metal light of the big axe in the firelight.
The axe rotated 360 degrees, and more than 20 soldiers around it were cut off their heads and waists and legs, and all of them were cut into several pieces in an instant, and the corpses were broken all over the ground.
Relying on the suicidal charge, the Wusun army actually rushed away from the already chaotic vine armor army, and many Wusun soldiers rushed out, but there were really a lot of people killed by the vine armor army, and there were only more than 1,000 Wusun soldiers who rushed out.
"Shoot the arrows." Wang Xu ordered in a deep voice.
A row of arrows rained out of the Wusun soldiers shot over, the Dongzhou soldiers' platoon shooting was specially trained by Zhang Ren, not to seek complete accuracy, only to seek comprehensive coverage, those arrows in the air lined up in a neat line, to cover the Wusun soldiers.
There were 300 arrows in a wave, the first wave was shot, the second followed, and then the third was followed by a third wave of arrows.
The first wave overthrew the Wusun soldiers in front, the second wave overturned the Wusun soldiers in the middle, and the third wave overturned the Wusun soldiers who rushed out behind.
After three waves of arrow rain, less than 500 of the more than 1,000 Wusun soldiers who rushed out were left.
At the same time, the two teams of archers commanded by Su Lan shot down with a rain of arrows, and a thousand arrows smashed down, five hundred Wusun soldiers were crucified to death, and the remaining dozens of Wusun soldiers charged to the Dongzhou soldiers' main formation alone.
There was no need to touch the shield array at all, the Dongzhou soldiers who were shooting arrows in the front row collected their bows and arrows, raised their spears and killed them, and dozens of Wusun soldiers who had been killing for a long time were quickly killed by the Dongzhou soldiers who were waiting for a lot of people.
Liu Zhang's brows furrowed, although Wusun Bing didn't shake him. But with a mere infantry. He actually rushed past the cavalry composed of Dawan horses. Evaded the archers, rushed away from the vine armor army, and killed his own formation, such combat power is really surprising.
And Mi Tian was even more shocked and angry than Liu Zhang, he originally thought that the Sichuan army was invincible and elite only the vine armor army, but now he found out that he was completely wrong.
He knew about the Shache cavalry, but Su Lan's archers. The powerful penetration of the compound bow, Yamaguchi didn't see it clearly at all,
To Mitian's great surprise, if it weren't for the containment of this archer cavalry, there would have been more than 1,000 Wusun soldiers rushing out of the vine armor army formation.
And the soldiers in Liu Zhang's own formation in the back, Mi Tian could see how sophisticated this army was from the shooting of bows and arrows, not to mention that there was a tight shield array behind.
Although the Han army is only 10,000 people, how many people will it cost to rush through? If it weren't for their own soldiers, all fearless of death. Even if there are more than 100,000 people, they may not be able to kill Liu Zhang.
The Wusun soldiers are still rushing to kill. But Mitian was already desperate, and the desperate Mitian did not flinch, nor committed suicide, and Mitian drew his sword.
Manpower is sometimes poor, no matter how heroic the Wusun soldiers are, how fearless they are of death, when the vine armor army is scattered and formed, the Dawan cavalry organizes a second charge, and the Wusun soldiers usher in the end.
Under the fire of the archers, the blockage of the Tengjia army, and the impact of the Shache cavalry, the Wusun army was finally annihilated.
At this time, Liu Zhang saw that Mi Tian led his few dozen personal soldiers and rushed towards the Sichuan army.
"What is this?" Liu Zhang frowned, and suddenly vaguely understood, now that Mitian wants to lead his own soldiers to escape, it is basically impossible to be pursued by the Dawan horse cavalry, even if he escapes? Mi Tian escaped, can God still give him a second chance to Zhongxing Wusun?
If you lost the battle in Guanzhong at the beginning, can you do it again?
And now Mitian may be even worse than the battle he lost in Guanzhong, because he lost this army, and he lost everything, so returning to Wusun will inevitably be attacked by all sides, which is undoubtedly the biggest humiliation for people like Mitian.
Moreover, if you run away like this, how can you face the soldiers who have been lost? All the soldiers were killed under the leadership of Mitian, if Mitian escaped like this, then Mitian really had the same heart and mind as those soldiers who died in battle?
The real traitor does not miss a chance, and he will definitely run away at this time, but Mitian does not, Liu Zhang's suppressed chest exhales, it seems that Mitian is still different from other heroes, he has the ability to be a hero, but he is also a true patriot.
Dozens of Mitian's own soldiers were instantly submerged in the cavalry flow of Dawan Ma, Liu Zhang didn't mind leaving Mitian's whole corpse, but it was impossible to let his soldiers be tied, which would cause more casualties among his soldiers.
Mi Tian and dozens of pro-soldiers were inevitably trampled into meat sauce.
The Wusun army was completely annihilated, Liu Zhang led the Sichuan army to occupy the palace, Lathia couldn't wait to know the situation of Yeke, and Liu Zhang immediately sent people to search.
"Thank you to the Han Heavenly Army for saving the country." The Exquisite Queen returned to the palace, looked at the familiar palace, and bowed to Liu Zhang with joy.
"Your Majesty, you'd better go and change your clothes first."
Liu Zhang took a cup of tea and drank it, and the Exquisite Queen found that she was still wrapped in Liu Zhang's dirty coat, her face was flushed, and she immediately ran to the side hall.
Liu Zhang watched the Exquisite Queen go out, smiled, and said to Wang Xu on the side: "When will Zhao Yun and Pang Tong arrive?" ”
Wang Xu thought for a moment: "It's been more than a month since the sandstorm season in Bailongdui, if it's a cavalry, it should be these days." ”
Liu Zhang nodded, Mitian was wiped out, and there were also Wusun's own army and the Guishan army, which were able to eliminate Mitian before the arrival of the Wusun reinforcements, saving a lot of trouble, but if the Wusun reinforcements and Guishan were not eliminated, the Western Regions would never be stable, especially the Guishan army, which was an imperial army, and Guishan would never be allowed to touch the Western Regions.
There is also a Latia, Liu Zhang glanced at Latia who was standing anxiously on the side, now that he has eliminated Mitian with her, her use value has been greatly reduced, what should I do?
The 5,000 cavalry is in the hands of Latiea, if he kills Lathia directly, the 5,000 cavalry will also be burned, 5,000 troops, 5,000 horses, 5,000 pairs of armor, Liu Zhang is really reluctant.
At this moment, Liu Zhang suddenly caught the afterglow of Latia looking at him from the corner of his eye, Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized: "The tension on the girl's face is faked." Deliberately pretending to be anxious brother. Actually, you're looking at your own reactions? ”
And no wonder. Elatiah's intelligence would not have been unexpected, now that Mitian has been destroyed, her life is completely in Liu Zhang's hands, of course, she has to worry about her life.
Liu Zhang was already inclined to kill Latiea, this girl was pure and kind on the face, but her heart was dark, and she didn't know when she was killed.
At this moment, the Absolute Queen has come out. There was also a group of elite civil and military officers in the back, these people were all locked up in the dungeon, Liu Zhang noticed that Latia's eyes looked at the rear of these civil and military forces, and when he found that there was no Yeke, his brows furrowed, Liu Zhang felt that her worries were real this time.
"Thank you to the Han Heavenly Army for saving the country." The Exquisite Queen took all the civil and military forces to worship together.
"Don't be polite, Jingjue is a vassal of my Han Dynasty, as long as I don't rebel against the Han Dynasty, my Han has the responsibility to ensure the safety of any subject country, but." Liu Zhang paused and said, "Your Majesty." The Elite people must have sacrificed a lot this time, right? This is a pity, and I would like to ask the Queen's Day to mourn. Please also mourn the people's day. ”
Liu Zhang's words made the Exquisite Queen and all the civil and military expressions gloomy, this time the Exquisite City was taken by Mitian to kill tens of thousands of people, and the total population of the Exquisite City was less than 20,000, and the small Exquisite City has now lost more than half of the population, which is called how the Exquisite Queen and other Exquisite people are not sad.
At the same time, they are even more hostile to the Wusun people.
After a while, the Queen of Jingjue reluctantly raised her head: "Wusun invasion, this is a hundred-year catastrophe of Jingjue, but thanks to His Royal Highness the King of Shu who saved the country, as long as we Jingjue still have people, Jingjue will not die." ”
Liu Zhang nodded, and the Queen of Jingjue said: "His Royal Highness the King of Shu, it will enter the winter immediately, because of the dry climate, Jingjue is even more dehydrated in winter, and it is easy to breed diseases. ”
Like Loulan, Jingjue is also a country that is gradually desertified, and over the past hundred years, the climate has become drier and drier, and there are fewer and fewer places to cultivate, and even Jingjue has also set many laws to protect the environment, such as cutting down a tree, fining a cow, etc.
However, it still can't stop desertification, and now not only the climatic conditions are harsh, the food is insufficient, and there is a serious shortage of water, but also many diseases due to the dry climate and lack of water.
Jingjue people live here all the year round, of course, there are prescriptions to prevent these diseases, the queen of Jingjue reported to Liu Zhang one by one, although Liu Zhang does not know much about medical skills, but it sounds like some drugs for digestive retardation and saline precipitation after water shortage, no big deal, these Sichuan troops have brought some, in order to cross the arid areas of the Western Regions.
On the march to the end of the march, many drugs were used, otherwise there would have been a large number of casualties due to diseases derived from dryness and dehydration.
After the queen finished speaking, she was about to retreat, and the two Dongzhou soldiers brought out a man, it was Latea's brother Yeke, when Yeke appeared, Latea's anxiety finally disappeared, Liu Zhang saw that there was also a little joy, thinking that this girl is not a little inhuman.
But he was afraid that Latia was still acting, and Liu Zhang didn't dare to take her expression too seriously.
"Your Highness." Latia suddenly walked out, her expression was flat, and she said to Liu Zhang: "In addition to these medicines that the Queen of Essence said, His Royal Highness should also prepare licorice, white grass root, centella asiatica, and a large number of ordinary three snow cordyceps. ”
"Three snow cordyceps?" Liu Zhang is a little sensitive to this, but he knows that there are still a lot of Sanxue Cordyceps in the Western Regions, but the Sanxue Cordyceps that treated Huang Yueying at the beginning had special requirements, so it was more difficult to find, and it was much easier to find ordinary Sanxue Cordyceps.
But even if it is easy to find, it is also a very valuable medicinal material, didn't you see that Huan Yao climbed such a high cliff for that three snow cordyceps? And a lot of three snow cordyceps, is it that easy?
"Do you need any of these?" Liu Zhang asked the Absolute Queen.
The Absolute Queen frowned, she didn't have a good impression of the Shache Kingdom that occupied the Exquisite Shache Country, and of course she didn't have a good impression of Latiea, but she didn't dare to be careless in front of Liu Zhang.
But after carefully searching around in his mind, he still replied, "These, I don't think I need them." ”
Liu Zhang looked at Latia, and Latia said casually: "I didn't need it, but if I want to live in a place crawled by a large number of snakes and scorpions, I need it." ”
"Do you need it?" Liu Zhang turned around and asked King Mulu again, King Mulu touched his head, this is embarrassing for him, that's right, King Mulu has raised many snakes and scorpions, as well as centipedes, spiders, leopards, jackals, and eagles.
But even if the number of these is combined, it is not more than one percent of the snake scorpion that Latia used at one time, "A large number of snake scorpions have crawled? "King Mulu had never seen so many snakes and scorpions before, how could he know where a large number of snakes and scorpions crawled and how to prevent poisoning.
"I don't know." King Mulu held back for a long time and said.
Liu Zhang looked at Latia again: "Tell me why." ”
"Don't believe it." Lathia strode straight out.
"His Royal Highness the King of Shu is angry." Ye Ke was shocked when he saw that his sister had such a big temper in front of Liu Zhang, and hurriedly confessed to Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang waved his hand and said that it was okay, he was still thinking about whether to kill Latea, mainly because he valued the five thousand cavalry, and whether Latia was still useful.
Three days later, news came from the Northern Exploration News, a large number of Wusun soldiers were close to refinement, Liu Zhang said in his heart, sure enough, he still came, it seems that no matter how corrupt the people of Wusun are, they are still afraid that Mitian will offend the big Han, so they can only break the jar and break it, and win this battle first.
It's just that those Wusun people don't know that the big mistake has been cast, but I am dead, the Elite City is in the hands of the Sichuan army, the Wusun army is no longer threatening, and the city is in hand, even if it is the original Mitian army?
Liu Zhang was about to order the whole army to defend, and almost at the same time, Dongfang Express reported that Zhao Yun arrived with 10,000 Xiliang cavalry, and the rest of the army was helping Loulan to restore the country.
When Zhao Yun led the army to arrive, Liu Zhang no longer had any scruples, and immediately ordered the vulture to lead 5,000 people to join forces with Zhao Yun, set up an ambush in the north of Jingjue, and prepare to completely annihilate the Wusun army.
At this time, Liu Zhang felt that it was time to talk to Latia.
"Go and call Latea." Liu Zhang said to the pro-soldiers, and the pro-soldiers took the order to go, at this moment, Liu Zhang suddenly felt dizzy, his hand propped up the table, and a slight tingling pain came from his head, Liu Zhang was taken aback, could it be that the disease recurred?
Xiao Furong on the side was startled, she has been taking care of Liu Zhang, since the half-year period, as long as she is not fighting, she will not leave an inch, and she always pays attention to Liu Zhang's situation.
Liu Zhang's spirit was very good in the first ten days, and even in the last few days, his complexion was still a little ruddy, which was a rare good complexion in the past year, Xiao Furong had an illusion that Liu Zhang's illness was about to recover, but since winning the refinement, Liu Zhang's complexion has taken a sharp turn for the worse.
