Section XXIII

The voice came from the left, and Xilie couldn't help but follow the voice. At this time, the sky is already bright, and in the vast prairie, it is natural to see farther. Looking from afar, he saw dust and smoke billowing in the distance, and vaguely I don't know how many people were killed, Xilie was taken aback, and couldn't help scolding: "What a treacherous Wu Ming." ”

Although he was in a hurry to send scouts forward, he was always cautious, and he still ordered the scouts to use snake carvings to probe the enemy. But there was no trace of the other party, and now he saw that the enemy was menacing, and he almost killed him at the junction of the grassland and the mountains. It must have been hidden in the mountains and forests in advance, and when the team passed through the valley, they attacked half-crossing, and attacked themselves by surprise and were caught off guard.

In this way, no matter how high the snake eagle flies, it can't find half an abnormality. Sendagan's face changed, and he said in a panic: "Uncle, what should I do?" ”

What to do? This is also a question that is difficult for Xilie to decide. In just such a short time, more than 200 people have come out of the valley, and it is naturally not enough to use more than 200 people to resist the incoming enemy army, but it is even more delusional to turn around and retreat. Now that the valley has already been crowded by its own soldiers, with the width of the mountain road in the valley, even if it retreats, it will not be a matter of time and a half. If the enemy is lightly mounted and killed, it will only be defeated faster. His mind was spinning fast, but after a while, he could find a way to deal with it. Zalun said suddenly: "Marshal, there don't seem to be many enemies. ”

The sound of horses' hooves became more and more intense, and in a short time, the attacking enemy army rushed out of the boss for some distance. Xi Lie looked again, only to find that although the smoke and dust were billowing behind the enemy army, the enemy army in front of him was sparsely packed, and there were only a few hundred people when the battle was full, which was very different from the momentum that came out of the table.

His heart moved, and he couldn't help shouting: "Quick, the brothers who have left the valley mouth, form a formation on the spot to defend." The brothers in the back go out of the valley in order, if there is another robber, behead! ”

In recent years, Nanban and Persia have fought a small fight in three days and a big fight in five days, although the loss is extremely heavy, but it is undeniable. However, the quality of its soldiers has been significantly improved, and it is no longer as unorganized as before. Although the Pegasus Legion is not as refined as the Mountain Dog Army, the Nanban is such a cavalry team, and there have been many sorties in recent years. Hearing Here's order, more than 200 people began to line up under the shouts of Zaryn. And the soldiers of Taniguchi also knew the realm of life and death, and they no longer had the previous laughter, and under the rectification of Uteli, they lined up tremblingly and rushed out of the valley.

They move quickly. After a short while, more than 100 people came out of the valley, and with the addition of more than 200 people, the number increased to more than 300 at once. The incoming enemy is faster, and is now two miles away. Two miles away, for a galloping horse, is a distance of one night.

It was too late, Xilie looked at the enemy who was getting closer and closer, and couldn't help shouting: "Form a defensive formation on the spot, be sure to protect the valley mouth, the brothers who have not left the valley, and speed up the action." ”

Once the valley mouth is lost, Wu Ming will definitely lead people to kill all the way from the valley mouth, and then the army will be defeated like a mountain, and there will definitely be heavy casualties. But if he persists, in the face of the surging enemy horses, Xilie has no bottom in his heart. Zaren suddenly pulled Lahilie: "Marshal, there is a boulder next to the valley mouth, you go up to supervise the battle." ”

Going up to supervise the war is naturally a pretext, and Zaron's main purpose is to feel that this place is too dangerous, so let him go to Dashi to take refuge temporarily. Xilie shook his head and shouted categorically: "When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins, now is the time to retreat, sons, kill the enemy!" ”

Although his beard was a little gray, but when he drank it, he still had some awe-inspiring power, and the soldiers around him were inspired by him, and they suddenly lifted their spirits and shouted in unison: "Kill the enemy." ”

The momentum has also rebounded a lot.

The sound of hooves was like a shower, and the two sides were five hundred paces apart. The enemy horsemen who rushed one after another untied the branches hanging from the horse's stock, and it dawned on Xilie that they had made such a big noise, but they had been helped by this thing. The enemy is taking such pains to disturb the morale of our troops. But his side is not chaotic, and he has not lost the strength to fight. Seeing that the soldiers who were lining up to defend were already showing fear, Xilie shouted: "Don't panic, see it before you release the arrow." , there are not many of them. ”

The first horse came like lightning, and the knight immediately had a burly body, it was Wu Ming. Seeing Xilie shouting in the team, Wu Ming's heart was overjoyed. As expected, Xilie Lao'er charged forward and was blocked by himself. In this way, the beheading plan has been successful fifty percent, and the rest depends on how you take the other party. Thinking of this, he was very proud, and he grew up on the horse, and shouted: "Marshal Xilie, the shame of the front, the boy does not dare to forget, and often wants to return the gift to the marshal." Now that the marshal has come to me as a guest in China and the West, I, Wu Ming, have been waiting for a long time, and I have come to greet you. ”

Xilie laughed and responded: "Wu Mingxiao'er, it's a shame that you are still the governor of China and the West, and you actually said such childish words. You want me to put my head on the head, even if you come to get it, what are you doing wordy? ”

His voice was so bold that Wu Ming couldn't help but be heartbroken. Five years ago, the Southern Expeditionary Army was defeated, and it can be said that Xilie single-handedly planned it. I thought that I should be full of hatred when I saw him, but at this time, I saw that he was arrogant and dry, and I admired him very much.

The marshal of a country, how can it be easy to deal with, even in the face of a desperate situation, but still stubborn and calm, even if he sometimes miscalculates, but that kind of bearing is lacking in ordinary people. He replied: "Well, today I will become a marshal." "After that, he clamped the horse, and the horse was in pain, and rushed faster.

The horse was very fast, only a short time to rush close to two hundred steps, at this time the southern barbarians shot the first round of arrows, but they panicked in line, foot shooting is not good, this round of arrow rain caused by the effect is limited, rushing to the forefront, is Wu Ming more than 100 personal guards, most of them are the guards battalion soldiers transformed, since the elite of the elite. When the arrow struck, they pulled it away with their spears, and only one of the unlucky men was hit by an arrow, and then fell off his horse and was trampled into a meatloaf by the cavalry that followed.

It was too fast, and it was too late to release the second round of arrows, and the knights of the Han army, led by Wu Ming, crashed headlong into the temporary phalanx formed by the southern barbarians. Wu Ming jumped on the horse, and the horse was in pain, screaming violently, like a cannonball shot out. The faces of the current enemies turned pale with fright, but there were still three people with spears in their hands, and they stabbed at him with a loud shout. He snorted softly, and the spear reversed, and it volleyed down, and the shot was aimed at one of them, and the man's body trembled, as if struck by lightning. A bloody hole appeared in the soldier's chest, and the blood spurted up like an arrow. He screamed and fell to the ground. Wu Ming's spear was hurriedly retracted, turned into a stick, and went towards the other person's shoulder.

This scream was extremely poignant, and the other soldier was so frightened that his hand moved slowly, but at this moment, Wu Ming shot him in the shoulder, and he only felt a strong surge, and his body involuntarily flew backwards. Being in the air, severe pain followed, and he couldn't help but scream miserably, and a large group of people flew away in a row.

After getting the two of them, the attack of the third person, Wu Ming couldn't dodge it. I had to pull the reins of the horse, hoping to flash the vital point. But although this horse was carefully selected by Jian Feiyang, it could be compared with Nanwang. The shot was from the bottom up, right in the horse's neck. The horse neighed miserably and rushed forward, knocking over several Nanban soldiers who had come to the rescue.

As soon as Wu Ming pressed the horse's back, the person had already floated out diagonally. At the same time, he was nostalgic for the good of Nanwang, and without the help of the horse king, he was forced to dismount as soon as he clashed, which was not good.

But the reality didn't allow him to sigh more, and a large group of southern barbarians saw him fall off their horses, and they had already roared around him. The first person was Xi Lie, and he also knew that Wu Ming was very good, if he was an ordinary person, he would not be able to stop him without a dozen of them, so he rushed quickly. He rushed to Wu Ming, didn't say much, shouted, made a mistake with both feet, and slashed towards the door in front of him.

Although Wu Ming has never fought with Xi Lie, he is a master of the ninth stage, and there are very few people in the world who can not see the real and the false. At a glance, I knew that Xilie was a master of the seventh stage, and if it was about fighting alone, it would not be easy for Wu Ming to win. But now there are a lot of people around, who is still fighting alone with you?

In desperation, he had to roll on a lazy donkey, giving the other party a life-saving blow. Naturally, Xilie's sword failed, and along with him, there were three spears, two broadswords, and a palm. That palm was slapped by Zalun with a cold slap, although he didn't really do anything to Wu Ming, but it also made him break out in a cold sweat.

It's too reckless, he is annoyed. At this moment, a rumbling sound was heard, mixed with the screams of the southern barbarians. He was overjoyed, it was the follow-up cavalry rushing in, right?

Rushing ahead were more than a hundred guards, all of whom were not weak. In just a short time, more than 100 Nanbarians rushed out from the valley mouth, adding up to nearly 500 people. Although these southern barbarians suffered heavy losses under the charge of the cavalry and suffered heavy casualties, they also knew that life and death were at stake, and they would not retreat from the battle. The Han cavalry was worried about Wu Ming's safety, but it was inconvenient to turn around and accelerate again, so he had to dismount and fight with them, and for a while, the two sides couldn't hold each other.

Wu Ming rolled, just happened to reach the junction of the two sides, he got up dizzily, and was a little confused, at this time, a fair-skinned slender hand held him, the fragrant wind was blowing on his face, and Esther's voice was suitable for sounding: "Brother Amin, are you okay?" ”

She was supposed to be with Wu Ming, but the latter rushed too quickly and lost contact. Seeing Wu Ming besieged, Esther was so frightened that she rushed desperately to protect her. Wu Ming settled down and said with a smile: "It's okay." As soon as he finished speaking, his face changed: "Be careful." He pulled Esther to the right and pulled out the red night to block it.

only listened to the sound of "dang", and Chixiao happened to block Xilie's sharp knife.

A large group of southern barbarians followed and killed.

In this raid, Wu Ming divided the team into three queues. Rushing to the forefront is Wu Ming and his more than 100 personal guards, although their number is small, but their kung fu is good, which can be called elite. The second is the more than 300 cavalry that Jian Feiyang stationed in Fenglingdu, which is not only a cavalry, but although the bow and horse are not as good as the personal guards, they are not too bad. The last 300 or so were Persian sailors. These sailors have been sailing for a long time, and many of them can't even ride horses, so how can they charge and kill the enemy? The task given to them by Wu Ming was to follow the back of the team and use branches to raise more dust and confuse the hearts of the enemy. When wrenched in wartime, improvise.

More than 100 guards are warriors, and along the way, naval warfare and horse warfare are not their forte, and they have not seen much power. But the melee made them find their feelings. The Southern Barbarians were five times their own, but they were killed by ghosts and wolves, and suffered heavy casualties. Although there is still a steady stream of enemy troops rushing out, the speed of coming out is somewhat unable to keep up with the speed of casualties.

Xilie also knew that Wu Ming had set up a game for him, and it was almost a fatal game to attack halfway. To break this game, the only chance is to hit Wu Ming hard, once Wu Ming has a good deal, all his arrangements will disappear, and it will be difficult to pose an actual threat, so he is also desperate.
