Chapter 514: Coming Through the Formation
Chapter 514 came through the formation
Li Huining walked slowly up to the city tower, loudly encouraging the morale of the soldiers of the Women's Army, knowing that the reinforcements had arrived behind the Turks, the soldiers of the Women's Army guarding the pass suddenly burst into cheers. The last 500 reserves in the city had already entered the city, and all the wounded soldiers who could still draw their bows had been mobilized.
Li Huining deliberately hid the worries in her heart, and she also had the same excited smile on her face as the soldiers.
The Turkic offensive was finally suppressed, before the next wave of the enemy's offensive pressed up, Li Huining sat down by the pillar of the city gate tower, she pulled the plug of the water bag and took a sip, the cold water flowed down her jaw and diluted the blood stains on the breastplate.
Before, she had seen with clairvoyance that there were indeed people attacking behind the Turkic army, and she had also seen the color of the banner that shook her heart. That's why she has deep worry in her heart, and deep anger.
Li Shun squatted down beside her, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and whispered: "Although the Turks have been suppressed for the time being, I am afraid that the next attack will be more fierce." Miss, although the feather arrows in our hands are still enough, counting the wounded soldiers, there are at most 1,300 people on the city wall, I'm afraid ...... If you really can't hold it, I'll let Li Chunnian escort you first, and I'll take someone to break off. ”
"I'm not afraid."
Li Huining waved his hand and said softly: "I won't go down to the city, the soldiers fought on the city wall and fled, I can't do such a thing." From Chang'an to Weize Pass, none of them abandoned me, how could I leave them alone? ”
"Miss!"
Li Shun sighed and said, "Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood." Our women's army still has 50,000 or 60,000 troops in Yanmen and Mayi, as long as you say hello, the brothers will rush over, we died in battle, you can take the brothers to avenge us, if you have a little accident, what face do we have to live? ”
"Then die here!"
Li Huining clenched her fists, and the anger in her eyes became more and more intense.
"Miss, you can also see that there are not many reinforcements."
Li Shun sat down and gasped and said, "If a large group of people and horses come over, Ashina Eliver will not be able to free up manpower to attack the city so fiercely!" Since he was able to divide his troops and block the reinforcements behind while besieging the city, it showed that the number of reinforcements was simply not enough to make Ashina Elivier fear. In my opinion, there will be no more than 10,000 people. ”
"It won't be more than five thousand."
Li Huining shook his head and said, "And it's all cavalry." ”
"It's all cavalry?"
Li Shun's heart was shocked, and then his face turned pale: "Is it the second son's person?" The best cavalry in our Li family's army is the elite cavalry of the Qin Zi Battalion in the hands of the second son, but even if the cavalry is elite, what use can 5,000 people have? Ashina Eliver is the most important thing in his hands is the cavalry, even if the cavalry of the second prince is elite, at most it is only entangled in the rear team of the Turks, not to mention that the thickness of the Turkic army's formation is too large to kill at all, even if it kills five thousand elite cavalry, how many people are left? ”
He didn't say a word, but he knew that Li Huining had thought of it a long time ago.
Five thousand cavalry, this is just to disturb the enemy. It is estimated that even if it is sent by the second son, it is just a show. 5,000 people want to kill 1670,000 Turkic wolf riders, this is tantamount to a fool's dream, and the second son just doesn't want to be caught and killed. Sending 5,000 cavalry to harass the rear of the Turks would not help Wei Zeguan at all. Li Shun is the general of the Li family, and when Li Huining was young, he had already gone out with Li Yuan. Now it seems that the most unlike the Li family is the stubborn woman in front of her.
He turned his head to look at the excited soldiers not far away, sighed, and said in his heart, if the soldiers of the Lady Army knew the truth, he was afraid that their morale would collapse completely. That's why he was frightened by what he thought of, if this is really the case, it can only mean that Wei Zeguan has been given up by the Li family, and at the same time, they have been given up by these women's soldiers who have fought for five days.
"Not a man of the world."
Li Huining shook her head and said lightly: "It's Yan Yunjing." ”
These four words made Li Shun's eyes widen suddenly.
"He wanted me to know he was coming, to tell me not to give up."
Li Huining didn't say this because she knew that Li Shun couldn't understand it. When Li Huining thought of this, she suddenly couldn't help but smile, and said in her heart that she finally had a reliable younger brother. But even she didn't realize how bitter and bitter the smile on the corner of her mouth was.
……
……
As Li Huining expected, the second offensive of the Turks was unusually fierce. The Turks, who seemed to smell the smell of the apocalypse, climbed up the walls in a frenzy, not caring at all about the feathered arrows pouring down from the walls like a torrential rain, and everyone seemed to fall into a state of madness, screaming like hungry wolves that smelled blood.
Li Huining cut down the Turkic wolf rider who had just emerged from the side of the city wall with a knife, and the knife cut off half of the head of the wolf knight, and blood and brains spurted out at once, splashing Li Huining's face. Just as she raised her hand to wipe her eyes, the second wolf knight who climbed the city wall took off the knife in his mouth and stabbed Li Huining in the heart!
Poof!
The sharp knife sliced through the leather armor on the chest as easily as it cut through tofu, and then sliced through the heart, and the sharp tip of the knife stabbed out in the back......
The Turkic soldier who had just climbed the city wall fell down with a wail, and the blood in his heart was still spurting out like a waterfall as he fell. Li Huining, who had escaped death, glanced back and saw Deputy Marshal Ji Chunlei standing behind her with a pale face, and blood was still dripping from the horizontal knife in Ji Chunlei's hand.
"How did you get up! Get back! ”
Li Huining shouted loudly, and stabbed the wolf knights who climbed up to death with a knife. She and several soldiers worked together to push the ladder to it, and the ladder that fell diagonally smashed on another ladder next to it, and the two ladders collided together and slowly fell, and the wolf knights on the ladder screamed and jumped down in fright, and many of them broke their legs.
Ji Chunlei looked at his left shoulder, and then shook his head: "Everyone is coming up, how can I sit down below?" ”
His left arm was gone, broken in his shoulder.
The left shoulder was wrapped in a white cloth, and the blood was still oozing out, looking scarlet. His left arm had been slashed off by a Turkic leaf protector two days earlier, and he had been slashed off from the shoulder. Ye Hu is the title of the Turkic official position, with a very high status, leading more than 10,000 troops, which is similar to the general of the Central Plains. The brothers of the Turkic Khan are generally called She, the special service, and under the special service is Ye Hu, Ai Jin, and the names of the officials are a little confused, even the merchants who go to the north all the year round are not clear.
Ye Hu, who slashed Ji Chunlei, is a Turkic commander with extraordinary martial arts, if it weren't for Ji Chunlei's quick enough reaction, it would not be his left arm, but his neck. Although Ji Chunlei is a big fat man, his martial arts are not unusual. When he was in Huaiyuan Town, Liaodong, he joined the army under Li Yuan's Mingdian, because he was good enough and ruthless enough, and later followed Li Huining and made outstanding achievements, and was named a general by Li Yuan.
"Miss, the situation is not right!"
Ji Chunlei was still bleeding from the broken left arm, his face was as white as paper, and he was panting and moaning when he spoke: "Why is the Turkic offensive suddenly so fierce." Are our reinforcements arriving? ”
Li Huining nodded and shook his head, Ji Chunlei didn't understand what he meant and was not easy to ask, Li Huining helped him sit down on the stone pier first, and then explained the matter. Ji Chunlei frowned slightly after hearing this, and couldn't help complaining: "General Li of the Yanyun Army is also a man with affection, our Li family from all walks of life has not arrived, but let outsiders arrive first, but he is a little reckless, if he does not attack rashly, the Turks will not attack Weize Pass so ruthlessly." ”
"Even if An Zhi doesn't come, the Turks' offensive will not be weaker."
Li Huining sighed and said, "If you are Ashina Elliptan, can you still hold your breath?" ”
Ji Chunlei was stunned, nodded and stopped talking.
"Miss, if you really can't bear it for a while, I will take someone to break off, and let Li Shun and Li Chunnian, the two of them, escort you out with the veterans of a hundred battles who came over with Li Fu, and if you can't break through the Guannei, go outside the Guan, and go around the Guanwai to Yanmen when you enter the grassland. If you're lucky, you might be able to meet the Tiger Ben cavalry sweeping the grassland! ”
"You forgot Lu Thirteen?"
Li Huining shook his head and said, "Encountering Luo Yi's soldiers is no different from encountering the Turkic wolf riders. ”
"That can't sit still!"
Ji Chunlei stood up, grabbed the horizontal knife and said, "As long as you are here, the Women's Army is here!" ”
As soon as he finished saying this, the soldiers of the Women's Army guarding the city in front suddenly burst into a burst of cheers, the cheers were so loud that they resounded through the clouds, Li Huining was just about to send his own soldiers to ask what was going on, and he saw Li Chunnian stumbling over with a wolf's tooth arrow on his shoulder, and the blood on his shoulder was flowing down while running, but there was no pain on his face, on the contrary, he was excited and excited: "Miss! The reinforcements have penetrated the Turkic army formation, and they are almost under the city! ”
"I'll go and see!"
Li Huining was startled and immediately ran to the side of the city wall.
"Miss! Don't open the door easily! ”
Li Shun suddenly ran over and stopped in front of Li Huining and said: "There are too few reinforcements, only a few thousand, if you rashly open the city gate, maybe the Turkic cavalry will follow!" Just let the Turks get on the war horses, no one is faster than them! ”
Li Huining nodded and ran to the edge of the city wall, and the scene that caught her eyes was suddenly so shocked that she couldn't speak. Outside the city, about four or five thousand black elite cavalry closely followed behind a fiery red banner, wedged into the huge army formation of the Turks like an awl, and the black armored general led by the tip of the knife, only a few thousand elite cavalry actually cut off a gap in the middle of the hundreds of thousands of Turkic troops.
"Yan Yun Jing Ride!"
"Onward!"
The neat and cold shouts resounded through the clouds, shaking people's ears for a while. The cone-shaped cavalry attack array ruthlessly tore through the Turkic formation, and all the wolf knights who were close to the conical formation fell down one by one. Where the black rider passed, blood swung in both directions like a wave of water.
"Open the door!"
Li Huining ran down to the city while giving the order, where to pay attention to Li Shun's reminder just now.
"Those who can draw the bow are all for Lao Tzu to stand up, and after a while, the reinforcements will shoot behind them when they enter the city, and they must not let a Turk follow up to hear it! Give Lao Tzu all the strength of breastfeeding, who wants to say that he has never eaten milk, and Lao Tzu will let him take two bites! ”
The one-armed Ji Chunlei stood on the edge of the city wall and shouted, the horizontal knife in his right hand was raised high, and a light that made people dare not look at it in the evening afterglow.
The soldiers of the Women's Army on the city wall burst into laughter, and then grabbed the hard bow in their hands.
"Whoa!"
The defenders of a thousand men answered, their eyes full of desire for survival and victory.
Li Shun sighed, greeted him, and ran down the city with all the veterans of the Li family. Li Huining went down the city along the horse road in one breath, and shouted to the soldiers who were facing the gate to open the city gate. The soldiers below also knew that reinforcements had arrived, and immediately more than a dozen people came up to block the heavy door, and the soldiers swarmed up and slowly opened the city gate.
The Turks outside the city gate took the opportunity to rush in, but they were killed by Yan Yunjing's cavalry that had been killed outside the city gate, and most of them were cut down, and the rest were forced into the city gate, and the soldiers of the women's army were all shot to the ground after a rain of arrows, followed by a black dragon-like Yanyun spirit cavalry rushed in, and they couldn't feel the murderous aura on their bodies far away, and the soldiers of the women's army who entered the city gate were startled, and subconsciously avoided and didn't dare to look at those cavalry.
Less than five thousand spirits rode into the city, and they all looked as if they had been splashed with blood. Because the weather was too cold, the blood sprinkled on them was still steaming.
But even so, the cold and biting murderous aura on their bodies still made people feel much colder than the weather in this wax moon.
No one knows how many people they killed along the way. The blood-soaked red flag of Yanyun Village looked even more vivid, and the soldiers holding the flag stood tall and proud, with a proud and cold face.
