Volume 1: Who Breaks Through the Void by the Stars Chapter 352 The Chieftain and the Thief Leader Wants to Escape
"I'm coming" Hong Guangcheng's eyes were split, looking at the half-bloodstained Lun Qiliyu, and without waiting for the other party to speak, he called out.
"Let's go together" on Qili Yu also said.
They fought a real fire, but they all understood that if they couldn't break through here and cut down Ye Chang's banner today, then it would be difficult for them to get out.
This time it can be said that he tried his best, even if he was restrained by the left flank, he couldn't stop them, if it weren't for Ye Ying's side taking the opportunity to attack and drag most of the enemy troops, Ye Chang's military flag would have to retreat.
Rao is like this, Hong Guangcheng has also arrived in front of Ye Chang, the two look at each other, Hong Guangcheng roared: "Ye Chang child, dare to fight with me?" ”
This barbarian general was covered in blood, his body was majestic, he roared and invited battle, and his momentum was compelling. Ye Chang smiled, looked at the stone thrower soldiers who had just come to the aid beside him, and then ordered the drummer: "Beat the drum"
The time has come, and now the dogs and brutes have been stretched to the limit, as long as they are lightly cut, all their courage and fighting spirit will be in vain.
Seeing that Ye Chang ignored himself, Hong Chengguang knew that something was wrong, and shouted in despair: "Guts rats, dare to fight with me"
"If you have the ability, you will kill me." Ye Changyao exhaled.
Hong Chengguang roared and rushed, he was only twenty steps away from Ye Chang, but these twenty steps were like thousands of miles
He rushed out two steps, and the drum had already sounded, and Wang Yang'er in the distance, who was already impatient with the sound of the drum, cheered when he heard it, and then five hundred cavalry rushed out diagonally, like a dagger, and stabbed into the enemy's vital point.
Everywhere they went, whether it was a dog or a barbarian, it collapsed in an instant, and Wang Yang'er took the lead, as if entering a no-man's land
His bravery is slightly inferior to that of good and straight, and with Wang Zhonghei in the frontier for many years, his equestrian skills are far better than good and straight, so he is a natural general who breaks the formation. The dogs and barbarians had already reached their limit, and Wang Yang'er's assault became the last straw that crushed the camel.
Hong Guangcheng rushed no more than ten steps away from Ye Chang at this time, but if he moved forward, it was the Tang Army with a shield and a sword, and it was difficult for him to advance an inch. His own soldiers, seeing that things were not good, pulled him back, hugged him and went back down the mountain.
"Chasing," Ye Chang shouted.
Let the other party attack for an hour, and finally when the Tang army counterattacked, he gave an order, the earth-shattering war drums sounded, and the Tang army began to counterattack no matter where it was.
The barbarians and the dogs resisted, but the resistance did not last even three breaths, and the whole army collapsed. Hong Guangcheng fled to the hillside at this time, seeing a group of Tang cavalry galloping across his troops, seeing his own army panicked like a chicken, seeing that none of his orders could be effectively issued, and even the dog Rong people who had shown extremely high fighting spirit and perseverance had fled, he only felt that his eyes were dark, his blood was surging, and the whole person fell down.
The guards beside him set him up and called out again and again with a crying voice, and Hong Guangcheng woke up immediately, and was about to give the order to flee west, when suddenly he heard the sound of swishing around him.
But it was the Tang army that began to shoot with crossbows again, Hong Guangcheng's personal soldiers around him fell down one after another, if they were not hit by the arrow, they also scattered to find a place to dodge, Hong Guangcheng also hit a stray arrow in his calf, and the two personal soldiers ran wildly with him, but he heard an angry shout: "Where to go, this road is not passing"
It turned out that they did not choose a way to flee west, but ran north towards Erhai Lake, but they happened to meet Ye Yingbu, who had completed the blocking task and entered the counteroffensive
In front of them, dozens of Tang soldiers swarmed up, and the two pro-soldiers fled a few steps, seeing that they could not get out, they immediately threw their blades and knelt down to surrender.
Hong Guangcheng didn't want to surrender, but he had a wound on his foot, turned a few steps, those Tang soldiers saw his clothes, knew that he was a barbarian nobleman, and rushed up one after another, one of them was agile, pounced from the side back, hugged his waist, he hit back elbow, and hit the Tang army with blood spurting from his mouth, but then the other two Tang soldiers pressed on it again, and held down his hands and feet.
"Who is this?" He was still struggling, but he felt a weight in his vest and a foot on his back.
But it was Ye Ying, seeing that he was brave, Ye Chang put a knife on his neck while asking the two barbarians who had just knelt down and surrendered.
The soldier who had his own barbarian language asked, and the two looked at each other, in such a situation, it was important to save their lives, and they couldn't take care of much, so they immediately confessed: "This is the general of the army, Hong Guangcheng, is the commander of our team."
"It turned out to be a big fish" Ye Ying was overjoyed, and asked Hong Guangcheng to be tied up and escorted to Ye Chang's side, but he himself was still unsatisfied, seeing Wang Yang'er leading the cavalry to rush back and forth in the enemy army, he was very envious in his heart, and immediately led the troops to chase and kill the past.
Hong Guangcheng was escorted back to the hill, and when he saw that the hill was full of barbarian and dog corpses from the bottom to his waist, and the blood soaked the mountain road into mud, he couldn't help but cry out loud.
Kunchuan was defeated, the barbarians lost 6,000, this defeat, if the 20,000 soldiers and horses he led were lost, it means that nearly half of the Nanzhao troops were gone, and it was almost impossible to rely on the remaining troops to hold Cangshan and Erhai.
When they arrived on the mountain, they saw that the corpses of the Tang army had also increased, and the Tang army, which had just blocked their counterattack at the top of the mountain, was cleaning up the battlefield, finding out every fallen soldier of the Tang army, and treating the seriously wounded at the same time
Hong Guangcheng was dragged in front of Ye Chang, and then pressed to the ground, and the soldiers who escorted him said happily: "Ambassador, this person is captured by us, and he is the commander of the barbarian army, Hong Guangcheng."
"Okay, good" Ye Chang looked back and called the camp in the army: "Write down their names and merits, and reward them when the battle is over"
Hong Guangcheng saw that Ye Chang didn't pay attention to him at all, although he was pressed to the ground, he still raised his head and glared at Ye Chang angrily: "You dog thief, you guts rat, why don't you dare to fight me alone"
He is the leader of the barbarians, he can speak a good Chinese language, and he scolds Ye Chang very smoothly. Ye Chang said with a smile: "The general of the defeated army, he is still brave, I have less than 30,000 Tang troops, first break 50,000 dogs, and then break 20,000 Nanzhao, do I have the guts, how can I be a reckless man like you...... Take him down first."
After taking Hong Guangcheng away, Ye Chang looked at the battlefield again, and the sound of killing had gradually faded away, only hundreds of Tang troops were still patrolling the position, treating their own wounded, and at the same time mending knives to the barbarians and dogs who were pretending to be dead. Because of the fire, black smoke and embers were everywhere, adding a bit of slaughter to the battlefield.
"After all, there are fewer troops, but if there are more troops, the dog Rong and the Nanban may not dare to come out to fight with me." Ye Chang thought to himself.
Hong Guangcheng was arrested, but he was lucky to get out, he grabbed a war horse, there were only more than 100 people around him, and fled in a hurry to the west. They were also exhausted at this time, but for the sake of their lives, they did not dare to delay in the slightest, and they fled to the mouth of the Xi'er River before the time of Chen.
A few miles later, is the Black Dragon Bridge, seeing the city wall of Longwei Pass on the other side of the Xi'er River, on Qili Yu couldn't help but feel sad from the heart, crying loudly.
In this battle, he can be said to have lost miserably.
First of all, he was defeated by Ye Chang's fire, the casualties are not known, he finally met the barbarian reinforcements, originally expected the reinforcements to rescue his own army trapped in the fire, but the reinforcements were also killed. He knew very well that Ye Chang really used the forces to block them, at most not 8,000 to 10,000 people, and what the remaining nearly 20,000 people were doing, that was something that could be imagined.
Ye Chang was able to divide and wipe out the 70,000 troops they had invested before and after with only 30,000 troops. In this defeat, he estimated that even if the escaped dog Rong soldiers and horses could return to the north of Erhai Lake, he was afraid that nearly half of them would be lost, which could be described as a blow to the dog Rong whose original population was far inferior to that of the Tang Dynasty.
Not only did he cry, but the dog Rong people who followed him also cried bitterly, and this battle was so depressing, which made them extremely unwilling.
While crying, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and when he looked back, it was hundreds of horsemen who were killing from behind.
"These Tang dogs, they still want to kill them all" Lun Qili Yu was so frightened that he suddenly stopped crying, urged the horse with all his strength, and galloped towards the Black Dragon Bridge.
He only had dozens of horsemen by his side, how could he dare to turn around and fight, just begging that there were barbarians guarding the Black Dragon Bridge and being able to take them across the river.
The one who brought the pursuit was Wang Yang'er.
He was in the middle of the fight, but he heard the Tang army say that Ye Yingsheng captured Hong Guangcheng, the general of the barbarian army, which made him very jealous and unconvinced, and he was bent on capturing a weighty prisoner. happened to capture a barbarian general, and when he learned that the dog Rong soldiers and horses had made the Lun Qili Yu flee westward, he immediately ignored reporting to Ye Chang and chased after him with his cavalry. Although he was very tired in the middle of the night, the dog Rong ran for dozens of miles and suffered a great defeat, and he was even more tired than him, so he actually chased after him.
"On Qiliyu, leave your head and go," he shouted as he chased.
On Qili Yu looked back, and saw that the Tang army was chasing closer and closer, and he was the first person, dressed in a black and red robe, with a fierce face, a pair of long knives in his hand with purple blades, and several other knives hanging on his body, knowing that this person was a brave general in the Tang army. He didn't dare to return to greet him, just desperately urging the horse, the war horse he rode was very majestic, although he was tired for a day, but he still had the strength to spare, but his subordinates' war horses were close to exhaustion, the more they ran, the slower and slower, and after a while, they were caught up by the Tang army to the last person.
The dog at the end was heartbroken, and turned back while urging the horse, but was chopped off by Wang Yang'er with a knife, and the first performance flew out. Immediately after the penultimate dog Rong crotch was exhausted, he fell down with a sad neigh, and threw the dog Rong on his body out, and the dog Rong hit the ground first, and the neck bone snapped and broke.
Wang Yang'er killed one and scared another, but because of a slight delay, he saw that the most powerful horse had pulled some distance. He was immediately furious, and he didn't care about the rest of the dogs, just urged the horse, connecting more than a few dogs, and was so shocked that those dogs fled to both sides, and one of them did not take the reins of the horse, and the war horse flew into the Xi'er River, and was swallowed by the waves in an instant without waiting for help.
On Qili Yu turned back again while fleeing, and saw that the distance between Wang Yang'er and himself was close again, and his heart was even more anxious, and he was in a hurry, and he heard his subordinates shouting: "Bridge, bridge"
When he looked up, he saw that the Black Dragon Bridge was in front of him.
But he was running from west to east, and the bridge was communicating between the north and the south, so he could only let the horse retreat, and then turn around, and in just such a moment, Wang Yang'er had caught up, and cut it down with a knife, but only cut off the mane on the horse's tail in the non Qili.
Seeing more than 100 brutes on the other side of the bridge, he shouted while kicking the horse's belly to force out the horse's strength: "Block him, stop him"
Although there were people among the barbarians who understood the dog Rong language, they did not know his identity and did not understand the current situation, so only more than ten people came forward to respond.
Wang Yang'er was able to kill at this time, and saw that the barbarians on the other side of the bridge were disturbed by Qili Yu, and because the two sides were mixed together, the barbarians on the other side of the bridge did not shoot arrows, so he shouted angrily, and he immediately rushed with all his strength under his crotch, and then rushed across the Black Dragon Bridge with Qi Liyu.
At this time, Qi Liyu had already hid in the barbarian army, Wang Yang'er danced wildly with both swords, and the whirlwind generally cut down several people, and the barbarians who forced up dodged one after another, and at the north end of the Black Dragon Bridge, there was a clearing.
"Kill him, he's only one person," shouted Lu Liyu.
Although he couldn't understand what he was calling, the barbarian also realized that Wang Yang'er was just one person here, and behind Wang Yang'er, there were seven or eight riding dogs rushing here. They immediately felt bold, and some of them bent their bows and arrows, and shot at Wang Yang'er, who hid behind his horse, rushed forward, and killed two more people, but the war horse under his seat neighed sadly, and was hit by several arrows, and fell to the ground
Wang Yang'er turned over and jumped off the horse, and threw the long knife in his hand at Lun Qiliyu. He had great strength, and although he was twenty paces apart, the knife still smashed on the head of Non Qi Li Yu, but unfortunately the knife flipped in the air, so it was the handle of the knife that hit the helmet of Non Qi Li Yu. Although it smashed the stars in Qili's eyes, it failed to kill him.
After freeing one hand, Wang Yang'er casually captured a brute, put him in front of him as a shield, and slashed with the other hand, and after cutting down two more bruteers, the blade was curled. He threw the broken knife away, pulled another one out of the knife hanging from his waist, and roared and slashed down one of the dogs that were chasing after him.
His retinue also embraced at this time, and Wang Yang'er snatched the dog Rong's horse and killed him directly among the barbarians, and everywhere he went, the barbarians avoided one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the barbarians scattered for him. He immediately slashed his sword, and then looked at the target he was chasing all the way, but he was already far away, and he had already reached the Longwei Pass.
"Rats, let you escape" Wang Yang'er scolded angrily, threw the knife in his hand again, the knife penetrated into the heart of a barbarian general who was running, the barbarian screamed and fell off the horse, Wang Yang'er still felt unrelieved of hatred, and then pulled out a knife from his waist to chase and kill those fleeing barbarians.
Although he failed to kill Lun Qiliyu, it was also an unexpected gain to capture the Black Dragon Bridge. He is brave and warlike, but looking at the Longwei Pass in front of him, he also knows that Lu Dao is not something that he can capture with more than 100 horsemen, and after killing the remaining barbarians, he can only hate and give up, gather his troops, and send people to report to Ye Chang while guarding the north end of the Black Dragon Bridge.
