Chapter 30: The Battle of the White Horse (6)
All around, it was pitch black, only the torches lit by the soldiers were making a sizzling sound, this was the generals of the coalition army strangling the divided Qin soldiers overnight.
Liu Bang staggered, holding the wheel of the chariot, laboriously opening his drunken hazy eyes, looking for a sound to look into the distance.
"Ah Shen, Ah Ying, give me a few more Qin dogs to come back, Lao Tzu will carry the night pot!" Liu Bang scolded and scolded, after many years of alcoholism, his spirit began to be paralyzed and controlled by alcohol, although it was nothing when he was sober, but in the case of drunkenness, Liu Bang could no longer control his words and deeds.
Fortunately, at this time by his side, Xiao He and Zhou Bo are people who can be trusted, and Li Shiqi himself is an alcoholic, and he naturally does not feel any strange for Liu Bang, in fact, the reason why Li Shiqi chose Liu Bang to take refuge is that his most fundamental purpose is to find a drinking friend, of course, this drinking friend later developed, and Li Shiqi as a part-time worker, it is difficult to have the opportunity to drink foot-to-foot with someone Liu.
Cao Shen, Guan Ying and other Liu army generals each led their own troops to clean up the battlefield, although Li Yuan broke through, but the skirmishes everywhere have not ended, and they broke through under the siege of three times the enemy army, except for a part of the gap that Li Yuan opened smoothly, the rest of the scattered troops scattered around the battlefield can only rely on luck, however, the Qin army's strict military discipline has been implemented very thoroughly in the middle and lower level officers, even if the contact with the main force is lost, the Qin soldiers of Yitun, Yishi, and Yiwu are still insisting on fighting.
Xiahou Ying was very irritable, he had a rare opportunity to lead the troops to fight independently, he did not expect that the Qin army would take advantage of the night to break away from the main battlefield, and was accustomed to using the chariot as a car, and the limitations of the chariot were particularly obvious in the face of the war horse that was more adapted to the complex environment of the battlefield.
What made Xiahou Ying even more aggrieved was that the heavy infantry under his command was blocked by the high slope, and the Qin army in front of him was like dying, seeing that it was about to break through, and suddenly more than a dozen desperate ones appeared, and the inflexibility of action made the heavy infantry suffer a lot of losses in this kind of attrition war of one life for one life.
It's finally over!
When there was no more shouting on the blood-soaked dark purple soil slope, Xiahou Ying finally let out a long breath.
"Yu Taifu, a total of more than 370 corpses of enemy soldiers were found here, and two enemy soldiers were killed, and dozens of people were killed in Tun and Shichang, but no enemy general at the level of Du Lieutenant was found." The military Sima in charge of the inventory came down from the high slope with palpitations and reported the battle situation to Xiahou Ying.
"Aren't there any enemy generals? How is this possible? Summons to expand the search area and find hidden enemies. Xiahou Ying shouted the order, the resistance of the Qin army in this place was the most fierce, if there was no strong figure to sit in the battle, Xiahou Ying did not think that two low-level officers at the level of military marquis could have such ability.
――。
Li Yuan has not given up, although he also knows that the possibility of the soldiers of Gan and Zhou breaking through is very small, some things, some people and things, often have to be lost to feel precious, at the beginning of the adaptation of the Great Liang, Li Yuan's attitude towards Wang Shang, Gan Houbo, and Zhou Xing was different. Wang Shangbu was cultivated by Li Yuan as a seed elite unit, while the Gan and Zhou troops were general troops, which was similar to the traditional division of the red and blue armies in the people's army.
After the Gan and Zhou divisions were automatically left behind, it was precisely because of their desperate resistance in the area of the high slope of the important place that the pursuing coalition army had to give up the fastest straight road and instead make a detour to chase and kill, which gave the Qin army time to break through. And more importantly, Liu Bang's most powerful Liliang heavy infantry on the battlefield had to give up the pursuit of the Qin army and strangle the other besieged Qin troops because of the obstruction of the Qin army of Gan and Zhou.
The success or failure of a battle, not only to see the arrows of the attack, but also to guard the shield, the smoke of the battle of the white horse finally began to dissipate, Li Yuan and Liu Bang, this meeting in the white horse is about to end, two people, one is persistently looking for the lost pawn, the other is to insist on revenge, no matter who it is, there is no intention to lay down the weapon and become a Buddha.
Gu Yun didn't know how long she had been running, she only felt that her legs were so heavy that she couldn't take a step, but a woman's strength was not as good as that of a man, and the continuous fighting for most of the day made her consume a lot of energy, and now, if she encountered less than one enemy soldier, she could barely deal with it, if she had a little more, she would only be helpless.
"It's not easy to run out, and I have to hand over this flag to Li Nerd, how can I agree to this drudger." Gu Yun bent over and walked quickly, and at the same time scolded Li Yuan in his heart many times.
"Who? It turned out to be a little lady. A shout sounded near the left, this was a search team of more than thirty Liu Jun, and the faint sound brought by Gu Yun as he marched made the Liu Jun soldiers with sharp ears discover the abnormality.
Gu Yun fell into a bitter battle, with one enemy thirty, such a disparity in strength, she wanted to lay down her arms, even if it was a prisoner, but when she saw the soldier Liu Jun throwing a towering gaze towards the exposed part of the torn armor, Gu Yun could only choose to continue fighting.
Fortunately, just when Gu Yun was about to be tired and lay down, Li Yuan also searched for this place, and one person and one rode down from the sky like a whirlwind and clouds.
"Plum nerd-!" Gu Yun muttered in a daze, and couldn't help blurting out the thoughts in his heart.
"Li thief is here, run!" The surrounding Liu army generals each let out a scream, almost no resistance and scattered, the leader of this Liu army was killed by Li Yuan not long ago, at this time zaijian killed the god where there is still the courage to resist, seeing the rout of the Liu army, Luo Jia with more than 100 horsemen like a dark cloud to chase and kill the past.
How can two legs run over four legs, and after a while, Luo Jia will annihilate all the small troops of Liu Jun, who are more than 30 people.
When he returned, he saw that Li Yuan had already dismounted, talking to the soldiers who had just been rescued, and in Li Yuan's hand, there was a badly damaged Qin army flag, and in the corner of the border, Luo Jia faintly saw traces embroidered with the word "Zhou".
Gan Houbo and Zhou Xingju died in battle, the discipline and courage shown by these two Qin soldiers in the battle shocked and relieved Li Yuan, in just two months, from ordinary county soldiers to the bravest soldiers of Great Qin, Gan Houbo and Zhou Xing led their subordinates to make progress day by day, but unfortunately, Li Yuan did not notice them before.
The general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned in ten years.
Perhaps, many years later, the names of these loyal and brave soldiers will be like piles of bones drowning in the wilderness, no one knows or cares. Only this battle flag, which danced and was soaked in the blood of a strong man, was still flying. Perhaps, for Zhou Xing and Gan Houbo, the grassland of this big river beach is the most haode home.
Looking up to the sky, you can witness the changes of the sun and the moon, and looking down to the ground, you can see the changes of mountains and rivers.
