Chapter 158: First Defeat

Ashina entered Huaiyuan, and sent all the captives to the city tower, and it was also full of Tang Army flags.

The captives did not dare to disobey, for there were countless arrows against their backbones below. They didn't know what the Turks meant or what the point of doing so was, so they had to do it in order to survive.

However, when they saw the sudden reinforcements on the plain, some wise people suddenly understood.

Trap, this Huaiyuan City is a big trap for the dead. It was a trap that he used to deal with reinforcements.

Shi Danai and Meng Yifei didn't know that one of their feet had already stepped into the ghost gate. They were just excited, and they finally arrived in Huaiyuan City, and they could finally stop this painful trek.

The smell of blood in the air had become more and more solemn, and Yifei even smelled the smell of the conspiracy hidden behind it. The moment he stepped into the Huaiyuan Plain, he was vigilant. Let the Yaoguang army be arranged into a reverse arrow, once the situation is not right, then it can quickly break through without being in a hurry. It was less than eight hundred meters away from the city gate.

He wanted Shi Danai to be more vigilant, but Shi Danai's attention was obviously not enough, because when he saw the fluttering flags and solemn sentries on the city, he thought he was solemnly greeting them. I didn't even think about why there were no people out of the city to greet them.

"General, be careful, didn't you find that the gate of Huaiyuan City is very suspicious?" Meng Yifei stopped Shi Danai.

And just when Shi Danai was a little suspicious, suddenly Huaiyuan's city gate slowly opened.

"Eh, look, didn't he open it?" Just when Shi Danai was happy, he saw that in the slowly opening city gate, a group of troops that had never seen before suddenly rushed out. They didn't wear armor, just cloth clothes, they rushed out like a group of monkeys, including cavalry riding wolf warriors, and swift hungry wolves, until the Tang soldiers above the city tower suddenly fell, and a group of archers appeared behind them, and the Tang banner was replaced by the golden wolf head flag.

Meng Yifei reacted violently, and shouted almost hoarsely, "Withdraw!" ”

Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw, withdraw.

At that moment, even a fool saw that this was a trap, the wolf warrior, the military banner, the bloodthirsty Turks, they rushed out of the city gate like a swarm.

Instead of immediately ramming Shi Danai's army, tens of thousands of Turkic soldiers were led by a hundred Nether Wolves to try to surround and kill them in the familiar situation of the Glaive Formation.

"The spear is the edge, the heavy shield is the shield, rush out."

Meng Yifei's Blade Array had already been prepared, and all the Yaoguang troops turned around and rushed out with a magnificent momentum.

On the horizon a few hundred meters away, those extremely fast wolf warriors slowly surrounded them.

"General Shi, 50,000 soldiers and horses, a large array of fish scales." While Meng Yifei wanted to protect his Yaoguang army, he also had to consider Shi Danai's 50,000 military horses.

And Shi Danai was stunned for a moment, a little unclear, but then he also reacted, and the order of the fish scale array, the 50,000 military horses began to automatically separate, divided into 500 small phalanxes, like fish scales.

He wants to cast a big net and catch a big fish, but Meng Yifei naturally won't let him succeed.

"The Yaoguang army has become a cavalry charge." Meng Yifei was on horseback, and he was still shouting, he had to follow his army at all times, otherwise no one would be able to hear his orders.

Gradually, he broke away from Stanai's army, and their broken army was almost out of the enemy's encirclement. And at this moment, suddenly a hundred war wolves on each side had already run in front of them, and they were preparing for the round. At this moment, Meng Yifei shouted, and the cavalry abandoned their horses.

More than 600 cavalrymen, almost without hesitation, drew their daggers one after another, stabbed them into the horse's buttocks, and then jumped together. The frightened horse, the horse that took off the reins, returned to his most primitive ambition and began to run wildly. And Meng Yifei took advantage of the only moment to slam his eyes.

"Die." The brilliance on his forehead shone, and the knights on the back of the wolf cavalry group on the opposite side were almost subconsciously stunned for a moment, the wolf was uncontrollable, but the person received the influence of Meng Yifei, almost at that moment, due to inertia, at the moment when the left and right wolf turned around, all the knights fell off the wolf's back.

And at this moment, Meng Yifei's six hundred abandoned horses had already stepped on the iron horse, crashing into those knights, three thousand, six hundred horses hitting two hundred people, two hundred wolves, it was really a living collision, and there was no tactics and strategies, because the wolf did not have the control of the knights, although he knew how to dodge, but he escaped the trampling of the war horse, but he couldn't avoid the spear that followed after the war horse.

Confusion, blood, stampede, collision, without stopping, the two sides staggered.

Dead, wounded, corpses everywhere, in an instant, and Meng Yifei spat out a mouthful of blood, the control just now made him extremely traumatized, and the blood stains between his mouths were permeated.

"Happy." Meng Yifei raised his head to the sky and roared, and the two sides staggered, and no force could return to the sky.

"Are you alright?" Linglong was anxious for a while, and Sang Zi in the warlock camp also frowned.

"It's okay, run, run to the opposite hill." Meng Yifei didn't have time to measure the battle losses, and the Yaoguang army must have suffered heavy losses, but what is certain is that the knights of those wolf cavalry regiments were all trampled to death, and even trampled into slag, stepping into the loess land, and they didn't even have to dig their tombs.

The chasing soldiers behind were gone, and those war wolves had no knights, and they were also chaotic for a while, only to hear a wolf howl above the city tower of Huaiyuan City, and the remaining nearly one hundred and fifty war wolves ran back one after another.

The other party is obviously purposeful, their purpose is to surround the army, as for Meng Yifei's army of a few thousand people, just run away.

And after seeing Meng Yifei and them escape, Shi Danai, who was deeply trapped in the formation, breathed a sigh of relief, he ran if he could, he didn't blame Meng Yifei.

"Guys, get ready to fight, and die a good death." Shi Danai shouted and drew the hammer, even if his shoulders were injured, he was in a rage.

And just as he was about to fight on his back, he suddenly heard the familiar military horn and the dazzling red flag on the hill behind him.

"This order is a breakthrough on the east side!" Shi Danai saw it, not only him, but every leader in the fish scale array saw it. Because the sound of the trumpet is quite loud.

"Aren't you resting?" Linglong looked at Meng Yifei, whose lips were pale, and couldn't help but say worriedly, and Yifei was standing at the top of the mountain at the moment, observing the battle on the entire plain. Even if he was injured, he didn't dare to rest. He abandoned Shi Danai and broke through in order to get himself out of the battle and command the battle line.

"No, you don't." Listening to Linglong's words, he gritted his teeth and endured it, "The east side is weak, let them put forward the arrow." The shield soldiers formed a round formation. ”

Meng Yifei said again, and then there was a burst of horns.

"The front arrow formation is in front, the round sun formation is in the back, and the east side breaks through. Kill! Shi Danai roared, and the mighty military horses began to gather eastward.

"Let the Yuansun Array form a goose marching array, and after the first round of the Arrow Formation, it will become a serpentine formation." When Meng Yifei gave this order, he couldn't help but feel his throat and vomit blood again.

The horn sounded, and the formations on the battlefield were ever-changing. And at this moment, on the top of the tower of Huaiyuan City, a tall man flashed a trace of surprise in his eyes, and then returned to his cold face.

Then with a command of the warrant, the two wolf cavalry began to rush towards the opposite hill.

The wild goose marching array formed by the heavy shield soldiers looked unorganized, but in fact, when it was formed, all the doubts were clear, the huge wild goose marching array completely separated the Turkic encirclement, and the serpentine formation formed by the rest of the troops quickly ate away at the other part of the Turkic soldiers.

As for those shield soldiers, they were regarded as outcasts by Meng Yifei. Meng Yifei is not a ruthless person, and he has never thought of using anyone as an outcast, or even a pawn.

But this time, he gave up the shield soldiers, the nearly eight thousand men. He Meng Yifei only felt that he was a failure, so at that moment, he was angry and bloody, and spat blood in his mouth.

"Don't be pushy." Linglong was very anxious.

After Meng Yifei heard this, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's go, this place is not suitable for a long time." ”

Meng Yifei ordered again, and this time the whole army of Yaoguang began to retreat, retreating to the next city, Yongning. Before leaving, Meng Yifei glanced at Shi Danai, who had already broken through, in their direction, the east was the way back, and then, he couldn't help.

In the end, under the timely retreat after Meng Yifei's order, they escaped the pursuit of the two wolf cavalry regiments that followed. After being safe, Meng Yifei still did not stop to rest, but immediately asked Linglong to report the loss.

Linglong held the damage report she recorded, and couldn't help but be a little scared and a little hesitant.

"Say, How many of my soldiers have died?" Meng Yifei roared violently, and after Linglong heard it, he sobbed a little and read the number of people lost.

"Report, heavy cavalry battalion, six hundred and fifty soldiers, six hundred and fifty war horses, all killed!"

"Report, sharpshooter battalion, one hundred and twenty soldiers, dead!"

"Report, sharpshooter battalion, two hundred and fifty-three soldiers, dead!"

"Report, Modao Battalion, forty-seven soldiers, dead!"

"Report, Warlock Battalion, five people, dead!"

"Report, a total of one thousand and seventy-five soldiers, six hundred and fifty war horses, killed!"

After listening to Linglong's report of loss that was already crying, Meng Yifei's heart suddenly clenched together, and he had already gritted his teeth in his mouth, and even blood was raw and oozing out!

He never imagined that before he was ready for a big fight, his Yaoguang 3,000 army would lose nearly half, 1,075 men, and 650 war horses.

"Two hundred people, fifty wolves, I lost one thousand and seventy-five people, six hundred and fifty war horses, good, very good, very good!"

Not only that, because of his abandonment, Shi Danai's 8,000 shield soldiers were completely wiped out.

"Ashinahao, Lao Tzu remembers you, Lao Tzu wants revenge!" Meng Yi violently pounded the loess earth, and the back of his hand was already oozing blood, which was the first defeat since he led the army to fight. He will take it to heart. (To be continued.) )
