Running away is also a university question. There are real escapes, fake escapes, desperate escapes, and fights and escapes.

Zhang Mai's original plan was to fight and flee, weakening the strength of the Hui army while escaping, but when the real confrontation came, he found that things were far from being as simple as he imagined.

And fight and escape, you must ensure that your own action is above the opponent, otherwise once you stop fighting, you can't escape, and if you are bitten by the enemy, you don't want to get out!

Moreover, if you are facing a well-organized pursuer, then if you want to achieve the goal of fighting and fleeing, you must have a powerful class of troops - mounted archery.

Hoping for the enemy to run closer, returning to the horse and firing arrows, weakening the momentum of the enemy's forward and then continuing to run, eating the enemy little by little, weakening the enemy little by little, this is one of the most powerful applications of the cavalry class.

But Sekan led 7,000 cavalry to rush out, if there was thunder in early summer, if there was a fierce beast out of the cage, the momentum was extremely amazing! Seven thousand cavalry, in a team of hundreds, swept over like a whirlwind, and the sound of horses' hooves shook the earth!

Unlike the last time Mansur went out of the city in doubt, Sekan went out of the city this time with the momentum of annihilating the enemy army, so thousands of horses' hooves let go, unstoppable!

And what about the Tang Army? Although the morale of the soldiers of the Eagle Yang Battalion and the Long Xiang Battalion was also high, their combat skills still needed to be honed, and if they were caught up in hand-to-hand combat, they could still play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, but most of them could not do mounted archery - archery is not a skill that can be mastered in a month or two, let alone aim at a bumpy horse!

"Let's go!" Guo Luo was one step ahead of Zhang Mai and realized that the enemy rushing in front of him was not easy to match, and while he had not yet taken over, he immediately ordered the whole army to turn around and flee.

From the beginning of the escape, the Tang army was divided into two parts, the left and the right were the Longxiang battalion, and the right was the Yingyang battalion.

"Envoy, follow me! All teams are right, remember to keep the fire under your command and don't get separated! Guo Luo shouted in front.

In the past few months, although Zhang Mai has become more and more integrated into the atmosphere of war, but the reaction on the battlefield needs to be precipitated for many years, at this moment the enemy army is behind, it is possible to catch up at any time, encounter changes, misdirection, there is no time to stop and think, must rely on the judgment of experience to make a choice in an instant!

In this regard, Zhang Mai is still inferior to Guo Luo. Therefore, the specific command work of marching operations was often carried out by Guo Luo on behalf of Zhang Mai.

The Eagle Yang Battalion and the Long Xiang Battalion gradually pulled apart, still on the run, but the angle was a little off, there were a hundred soldiers in the Eagle Yang Battalion who could do it immediately and shoot on horseback, these people were a little behind, the war horses were galloping forward, the feather arrows were shot after the front was against the trend, and the front shot was homeopathic, but the Tang Army shot back, the accuracy was poor, and the front shot was better, and the two families shot at each other across an arrow, and they did not get any benefits. The speed of each other also decreased slightly as a result.

At this time, the Long Xiang battalion had already rushed to a high ground under the cover of the Yingyang battalion, and three hundred bows were condescendingly aiming, Yang Yi didn't think about it, so he bypassed the high ground and continued to run.

"General, beware of an ambush on high ground!"

The subordinate general Mi reminded.

Secan reined in his horse, but the advance of the seven thousand cavalry could not hold back and rushed under the high ground.

"Shoot!"

Feathered arrows rain down!

The forward cavalry raised their shields on their horses, but seven or eight people were still hit by arrows and landed, more than a dozen horses fell with arrows in the middle, and more than 200 forward people either turned around or left the team, and the impact was a setback.

The troops that followed behind were also blocked, and the sharp spirit when they just left the city was suppressed!

But Secan found a situation: "These bows and arrows are not strong enough, and the accuracy is very poor!" He judged: This batch of Tang Kou lacks training!

"Hmph, it's just a gang of robbers!" The jealousy in his heart went three points again.

"Queue up and keep the pursuit!" Secan ordered: "Don't let them escape!" ”

"Change horses!" Guo Luo shouted!

This action of changing horses, he trained 600 Longxiang battalion soldiers I don't know how many times, these Longxiang battalion soldiers, archery skills are not good, but riding skills are good, many people are already familiar with horse nature before joining the Tang Army, at this time hundreds of people jumped off the saddle together, followed by a vertical overturned on another horse or camel, the action was done in one go, almost in two or three seconds to change horses!

This kind of collective horse exchange action is the most obvious, and Sekan can't help but be stunned when he sees it from a distance: "This gang of Tang Kou is well trained-what is going on?" "For a while, I didn't expect that the abilities of the Longxiang battalion were very uneven, the riding skills were good, the swordsmanship was not good, the morale was very high, and the combat skills needed further training.

"Let's go!"

Zhang Mai also turned over the camel, this is a turtle camel, the body is larger than Lian Jie, and the foot distance is almost comparable to Lian Jie, especially suitable for walking in the wind and sand, just sitting on the hump, more shaky than in the saddle. After several months of training, Zhang Mai's body has been able to spontaneously adjust the frequency of the up and down sloshing to synchronize with the frequency of the camel's sloshing, so as to reduce the damage to the body caused by the bumps, while also maintaining the body.

The Tang army is fleeing, Hui Hui is chasing, the fleeing party can be at will, east, west, north and south, is active, but the pursuing party has to follow the footsteps of the fleeing party, is passive, the Long Xiang battalion rushed down from the high ground, and just changed horses, with the inertia of the momentum to throw Hui Hui away a long way, Hui Hui had to adjust the direction and chase again, but the rear of the Tang Army still could not escape the vision of the Hui forward.

It is difficult for the troops to keep the same pace for a long time when they are advancing at full speed, due to the uneven speed, the 7,000 Hui Hui are gradually divided into three parts: the front, the middle, and the rear, with only a few hundred people in the forward, and the tail of the Tang army, the number of the Chinese army is the largest, and the rear army also has more than 1,000 people, and this part of the people and horses can no longer see the trace of the Tang army.

After two hours of escape, the party reached the Talas River, Guo Luo ordered the horses to be drunk, and at the same time the troops made arcs and stretched bows and shields, and after a meal, the five hundred or so vanguard light horsemen of the Hui Hui were forced to a distance of two hundred paces, but they did not dare to come forward - if they rushed up, they might be defeated by the Tang army.

After the confrontation, there was another meal, and hundreds of times the cavalry caught up, and then the combined troops approached, and at this moment, the Tang army's horse drinking ended.

"Change horses!" With Guo Luo's order, Zhang Mai also stepped on Lianjie, set off again, along the Talas River, and stepped into the desert, because the horsepower was more powerful after the rest of the horse, which threw the Hui army away for several miles, but this distance was still too dangerous.

"Don't we have to sleep tonight? Got to run overnight? That must not be exhausted. ”

Of course, the Hui army was also very tired, and maybe even more tired than the Tang army, but the Tang army did not dare to stop. At this time, if there is a melee with the enemy's front, if the enemy cannot be completely annihilated before the arrival of the Hui Hui's follow-up army, then the Tang army will be finished.

Ding Hanshan suddenly pointed to a chain of sheep's horn-shaped sand in the distanceβ€”it was obviously a tiny piece of sand that was swept up into the sky by a whirlwind, but judging by the size of the sand and gravel chain, the power of this whirlwind did not seem to be great.

"We are saved!"

"Saved?"

"That's right! Just rely on this gust of wind! We should be able to get a good night's rest. ”

Under the leadership of Ding Hanshan, the Tang army found a place, where camels were surrounded by rings, horses were in the center, and people were in the innermost. Every time it approached Lixu, the chain of sand and gravel became clear several times, and by the time the Tang army had arranged the camel array, the whirlwind had already forced several miles away! And at this time, the sand and gravel chain is no longer nothing, but dancing with the wind, connecting the clouds and rolling yellow sand below! It was as if a huge ploughshare was about to come down from heaven, and everywhere it went, it rolled up the sand like the waves of the angry sea, and swooped down in the direction of the two armies!

At this time, the pursuers who returned to Hui also noticed the horn-shaped whirlwind, and each stopped his horse to find a place to hide, no matter how eager Sekan was, he did not dare to be arrogant in front of Tianwei.

Zhang Mai was still observing the movements of the Hui army among the camels and horses, but he was also shocked when the whirlwind hit.

"Be careful!" The big stone and the small stone grabbed him at the same time, burrowing under the camel!

A piece of sand and dust immediately covered his head, and at that moment Zhang Mai thought of: "I'm going to be buried alive!" ”

But after a second or two, he felt as if his whole body was going to be weightlessβ€”the force of the wind's winds not only lifted the dust from his body, but also dragged his clothes and even his whole person from the ground by this spiral force!

"Hold on, hold on! It's gone by quickly! Guo Luo and Ding Hanshan were still cheering everyone at first, but after only two words, Zhang Mai couldn't hear the sound, and the voices of both of them had been blown away by the whirring sheep's horn wind, and at the same time, as soon as they opened their mouths, they would be stuffed with a mouthful of sand and dust by this desert Feilian!

The sand and dust on his body came and went, covered and lifted, only the wind refused to stop! It seems to be blowing until the earth is desolate.

Several times Zhang Mai almost had to let go of the camel chain in his palm, even if he had the protection of the camel array, and sometimes he couldn't control his body in the fierce wind, but fortunately, as Ding Hanshan expected, this gust of wind came and went quickly, and before he lost control, the sheep's horn wind had already rushed towards the Hui pursuers.

"Wow! Boy! "Hundreds of people jumped up from the sand together, in their ears, in their necks, in their clothes - all the places where the wind could invade were filled with sand!

The kneeling camel stood up under the escort of the sergeant, looking at the sheep horn wind that was gradually moving away, and Zhang Mai's awe of nature deepened in his heart.

"What is our Longxiang battalion, even if it is a Hui army with ten times more troops than us, in front of the power of heaven and earth, what is it!"

Six hundred, six thousand, or even sixty thousand - in this treacherous desert, if one is unlucky, they will be wiped out!

"Get on the horse! Let's go! ”

After a few hours of running, coupled with the confrontation between Fang Cai and the sheep's horn wind, the soldiers of the Longxiang battalion were already very tired, but the Tang army was tired, and the pursuers would also be tired, at this time, Lian Jie, who was carrying Zhang Mai, had already rushed out, seeing that the envoy Zhang under the mask of dragon scales had already acted, everyone gritted their teeth and cheered up, motivated themselves with a roar, turned over and immediately humped, and followed closely.
