The ten-man commander who escaped was not a waste material, and he basically figured out the combat effectiveness of these Kirgiz. After reporting the situation to his hundred-man leader, he followed the hundred-man leader's team and set off towards Kayi.

Kayi was already empty.

The search for these Kyrgyz pregnant women is the first task of all Kungur Khan's troops. Therefore, the leader of the hundred dared to take action without reporting. Now that the operation could not be completed in a short time, the Centennial had to send a herald to report the operation and explain that the enemy had fled to the mountains. "Although the enemy has undergone formal military training, but there are not many of them, and we can complete the task. It's just that no one can guarantee that it will take us a few days to find these goat-like Kyrgyz. So you have to explain these situations to Commander Jumasi and tell him that the mission may take more than ten days! The identity of the enemy may be the concubine of a certain Khan king, or the wife of a small tribal chieftain. This is yet to be determined. Go ahead. ”

The herald is gone. The Captain of the Hundred called out to a native Calmak: "I have heard that the robbers have ransacked your house. Is your loss big? If you want to get back those losses, you have to take us to find those Kyrgyz! ”

The man sighed twice before he said, "My lord, the small one has lost nearly ten gold coins!" As long as you can help me recover my losses, the little one is willing to take the risk of going into the mountains with you and show you the way! ”

"Ten gold coins?" The chief of the hundred people sighed: "I saw several Kalemaks who had been robbed. The combined properties of these people are probably not worth ten gold coins. How did you lose so much? ”

The man didn't dare to hide it: "It's all used by the Kyrgyz to buy villains." The villains didn't know what they were doing at first, but after seeing so many gold coins, they realized that their identities were not ordinary! ”

"Humph! These fools actually used ten gold coins to buy a poor ghost with a net worth of only a few silver coins! I don't care about your stupidity, but if you can't help us find them, you won't be compensated for your losses! ”

The team was divided into two teams of fifty men and drove along two mountain roads towards the mountain, noticing a majestic golden eagle hovering in the sky.

Baron Twilight and Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens, Ajibayi, and Kunshan Stone have converged. Seeing the appearance of an NPC army of 100 people in Kayi, he knew that the princess had been exposed. The three of them were feeling a headache, and in a blink of an eye they found that the hundred-man team began to divide their troops. Also, a team of thirty or so regular troops cannot be an opponent of five ten-man teams. Soldiers can find these people more quickly by dividing them into two ways.

Kunshan Shi: "I discussed with the princess that if they could only enter the mountain, they would always follow the road on the right hand. This road leads faster into the depths of the forest. ”

A team of fifty people, if the princess's guards can design a beautiful ambush battle, it is completely possible to win, but I don't know if these soldiers with a low degree of intelligence have the courage and wisdom. With the addition of the four men on Baron Twilight's side, the chances of the plan succeeding will be multiplied.

"Kunshan Shi, can you take a detour to the front of this team, contact the princess's guards to set up an ambush, and we will attack back and forth!"

"Absolutely. Don't forget, I grew up in Brulertaus! Just then your safety is not guaranteed! "Kunshan Shi's allegiance is not to the Princess, he is only responsible for the safety of Baron Twilight.

The baron smiled, "Thank you for your concern. But I'm stronger than you, right? If I can't protect myself, there's only so much you can do. Go ahead, this is your best chance to exercise your strength! ”

Watching the Kunshan Stone pass through the forest and valley like an ape, Boss Su was also very envious, and sighed that even if his strength was higher than that of Kunshan Stone, he could not move in the mountains like an NPC.

Su Cheng and Feng Wu Jiutian followed the team of the Calmak people for a long time, and finally saw the princess's team from Jin Jiu's perspective. Both let out a heavy sigh from the depths of their hearts. The princess's bodyguards accepted Kunshanshi's suggestion: they chose a relatively open valley, except for a large soothing hillside, and a mountain bag tens of meters high in the middle of the slope. The guards dismantled several wagons, and together with the white pines cut from nearby, they built a makeshift barrier over the mountain. The shape of this mountain bag resembles a sea bowl hanging upside down in the valley, and it is indeed a place that can be held with simple defenses. Su Cheng felt that this kind of defense was no problem to deal with the attack of fifty or sixty people, if he encountered a team of hundreds of people, there would be no second way out except to be trapped to death by the other party!

He had a scout pet, and so did the Calmaks, but he was a low-ranking white-tailed eagle. These people only discovered their target after Boss Su observed the Kyrgyz defenses for a while. The ten-man leader of the team put away the white-tailed eagle, and one of the people next to him raised his hand to release a carrier pigeon.

It was a close battle.

The attacking Kalmak soldiers were slightly inferior in number to the Kyrgyz, but all were battle-hardened warriors, and if there was any weakness compared to the defenders, it was that the cavalry itself was not good at storming cities.

The Kirghiz had thirty elite warriors and twelve herdsmen who could only fight to fight, and as for the princess and several servants, they did not have the slightest combat effectiveness on the battlefield. At this moment, except for the sentinels who were on alert, the others were still reinforcing their simple fortifications: behind the fence they made up for the gaps in the fence with a low wall half a man high. The wall could neither be high nor low - too high to shoot with a bow and arrow, and too low to defend. Twelve shepherds who had followed them from Kayi village used dismantled ox carts and tents to build a shelter in the middle of the camp to defend against stray arrows for the princess and her maids.

The 100-man commander of Calmak was not here, and the leader of the team was a 10-man leader assigned by the 100-person leader. Of course, he couldn't see the tension inside the walls, but he could tell from the composure of the defensive posture of a few sentries that this was a capable team. This person is also shrewd, and immediately summoned several other ten-man commanders to discuss the battle: "Everyone also saw that the number of people on the other side is not too much. But the fact that they were able to build such an effective defense in such a short period of time was enough to prove that these people were not ordinary wolves. ”

Another ten-man interjected: "Twenty to thirty people, a barracks built against the mountains. If we had attacked directly, even if we had won, there would have been many dead and wounded brothers. I would like to ask for reinforcements. He also knew that the carrier pigeon just now was only to report the discovery of the enemy.

The ten team leaders patted their thighs: "That's what I mean!" But just now I was worried that everyone would laugh at me for being timid, so I wanted to ask everyone what they thought first. However, you can't do it without trying the opponent's combat power! I have already sent for the release of carrier pigeons, and if Master Jumas arrives and sees that we have not yet started a war, he will not be happy. ”

The elite soldier who released the carrier pigeon was also close to the left, and suddenly interjected: "Boss, my carrier pigeon is dead!" Eaten by a golden eagle! ”

The new situation is uncertain: no one knows whether the golden eagle that eats the carrier pigeon was bred by the enemy. The carrier pigeon flew far away, and the owner could not sense more than its life and death. The leader of the ten people didn't feel very good, and he didn't speak very politely: "Mark, let's release the Saker together later, and ask for reinforcements at the same time." Each team of 10 draws two people to form the first siege team to test the strength of the opponent! ”

In this kind of battle, either the whole army will be pressed with a thunderous blow, or each team will draw people to try to attack. Everyone is ten people long, and you can't let my people risk total annihilation if you lead the team!

Seeing two falcons flying out of the ranks of the Calmak people, Su Cheng knew that it was not good. His Golden Nine had already soared for nine days waiting for blood to eat, but the speed of the falcon was faster than that of an ordinary golden eagle. Even if Jin Jiu is the king of the golden eagles, he can only hunt one of them at most, not because he can't beat them, but because he can't catch up with two falcons with different directions. Su Cheng hesitated slightly, and the two falcons had already flown out of sight.

Feng Wu Jiutian also saw clearly: "It seems that the other party wants to meet the other fifty people." If the Kyrgyz can't defeat the more than 50 people in front of them in one fell swoop, when this hundred-man team gathers, they will definitely lose! ”

Boss Su was indifferent: "Then fight." The three of us are in a 45-degree flank, and you two are on one side. Adopt the fire collection method. If you can find an opportunity to kill about ten Kalemak cavalry, you can let Kunshan Shi lead the people in the camp to rush down the hard bar—the sooner the better! ”

The opportunity is coming right away.

The Calmaks finally sent a team of ten men to attack. The ten men rode down the hill to the foot of the hill, jumped off their horses, and began to climb the mountain with swords and shields.

The Kirgiz sentry looked at him coldly. It wasn't until the ten men climbed halfway up the hill that they put their fingers into their lips and gave a loud whistle. Fifteen or sixteen longbows immediately stretched out from within the low wall, and a sparse array of arrows were shot at the climbers.

Both sides of the attack and defense were sergeants of rank 45, but the men behind the camp fence had a condescending advantage, and after a round of bow and arrows, one of the Kalemak soldiers was so lucky that he was killed on the spot with four arrows in a row; A soldier was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and with an 'oops' sound in his mouth, he rolled more than a dozen times in a row, and fell halfway up the mountain to the bottom of the mountain.

The two cavalrymen with shields saw their fellow arrows rolling down from their side, looked at each other, and both guessed each other's thoughts, and at the same time the soles of their feet slipped, and "oops" and "oops" rolled down the mountainside together. It's a pity that one of them was unlucky, and he actually hit his head on a stone halfway through, and kicked his leg on the spot a few times before he stopped.

Two dead and three wounded. The first charge of the Calmaks failed.

The five ten-man leaders looked at each other, and finally everyone looked at one of them. The man only felt that his face was hot, and he ran to the soldier who 'stumbled' and rolled down the hill and raised his hand with a whip: "Can't climb the mountain?" Why didn't you fall to death Jesek? Wait and rush again, you rush to the front for Lao Tzu! ”

"Can't rush it, Captain!" The cavalry cried: "My foot and neck are broken! ”

"You roll me to the back team! Bart, look at this guy's foot and neck - if he doesn't, you'll slash his hoof! ”

With the casualties, the ten commanders felt that they could give an explanation to the hundred commanders of Jumas, that is, they ordered each army to leave sentries, and the others rested on the spot, eating and drinking a little to replenish their strength.

Kunshan Shi also saw that the other party had sent a falcon for help, and knew that the battle in front of him must be fought quickly. Seeing that the Kalmaks were beginning to rest, he also shouted and rushed down the hill with a dozen men himself—but only halfway up the mountain, fixed the horses, and eleven drew their bows and gathered fire, and shot four close Karmak cavalrymen in succession, and then immediately withdrew to the camp.

Where are the people of Calmak willing? Thirty or forty longbows fired a volley, but only a few people were wounded. If they wanted to shoot arrows at the Kirghiz people in the middle of the mountain, they could only shoot them from their backs, and the power, range, and hit of the bow and arrow were much worse than those of the condescending Kyrgyz.

Seeing the Kirghiz retreat into the camp, the Kalmaks retreated without waiting to reach the foot of the hill, and then found that the three wounded who had remained in the rear to 'watch the house' had been shot dead.

Nine people were killed in the battle, but they didn't even get a single head of the other party. The faces of the five ten-man chiefs were even more ugly.

The team leader spoke: "It looks like there are bandits in ambush under the mountain!" ”

"Bandit fart!" Mark spat out a mouthful of spit angrily, and said angrily: "These people can only be the personal followers of a certain Khan king or the elite of a certain tribe!" Brigand...... They're not that good! ”

Another said: "You can't attack the mountain until you find out the enemy hiding at the foot of the mountain!" ”

More than forty people had just put on a posture of turning around and searching the mountain, when Kunshan Shi led people to rush down again, and still took the life of a soldier even though the Kalemak people were already on guard.

"Death to the sac! This battle can't be fought! The leader of the ten people took a whip and whipped off a basil grass: "Establish a defense on the spot!" If reinforcements don't come, we won't fight! ”

The decision was the right one.

Seeing that the Kalmaks began to defend in place, the Kirghiz, who were about to rush down for the third time, stopped halfway up the mountain.

A Kalemak soldier with a bleeding face patted his chest and shouted: "Come on! Let's fight on the ground and see who has the fastest knife! ”

Of course, a dozen or so people could not charge into battle. The fence on the camp opened, and all the Kyrgyz who could take up arms walked out in silence, some on horseback, some on foot, and more than thirty people stood behind Kunshan Stone with those who came out in front. Kunshan Shi opened his voice and sang: "The clouds gather and disperse, the smoke falls, looking at the sea of eternity, who do you say is a hero, who is a hero's sons and daughters......"

A Calmak soldier exclaimed, "Isn't this the stone of the Chicken Feather Centurion?" When did he become a bard? ”

The corners of the ten-man long mouth twitched: "This guy betrayed the Khan King!" With the Warsong bonus, the overall combat effectiveness of these people is by no means below us! Therefore, everyone must hold their positions and hold out until Master Jumas arrives. Victory, it will definitely be ours! ”

With the singing of Kunshan stone, the Kirgiz people in the middle of the mountain became more and more imposing, some people hit their weapons with the beat, and some people stepped on the beat.

"You and I hold hands and look at the red dust and tears in the vast world,

Fly the whip and walk thousands of miles,

Only the loyal liver and righteous courage,

Oh righteous courage and loyal liver,

He was moved ......"

A song that does not burn blood, and the ironclad longbow proves the loyal soul. The Kyrgyz did not wait for Kunshanshi's order, and had already gathered their troubadours to step down the mountain. More than 40 people, the cavalry was in the center of the convex front, and more than 10 people scattered into two wings on foot, more and more happily, rushing straight to the enemy formation under the mountain.

The Kalmak cavalry was not weak, knowing that the opponent was carrying the tiger down the mountain, even if the cavalry could not be used as a hedge, they could only stick to the position: the first row of people gathered the long soldiers, supported the handle on the ground, and tried to give the opponent enough damage when they met the enemy, and the others opened their bows and arrows, and the strings opened the full moon, and only waited for the long knives of ten people to cut down, and they would shoot immediately.

He led a team of ten people with a long scimitar pointing obliquely at the sky, silently counting in his heart, estimating the distance of the enemy, and wanting to give the Kyrgyz the heaviest blow at the distance where the bow and arrow were the most powerful: "Five, four、......"

"Boom!"

"Who's firing the arrows?" His heart was shocked, knowing that such a huge sound of strings could not be made by any one of his own team—it was someone sniping him with a giant crossbow—and his eyes flashed, and he slashed straight behind him, but he heard a soft 'poof' sound in his ears, and the war horse under his crotch neighed wildly, almost knocking him off the horse. The forefoot of the war horse hit the ground, and he rushed to the side without hesitating the ten-man man's tight chews, knocking over several cavalrymen with bows and about to shoot before they fell to the ground. The ten-man leader smashed the left camp of thirty archers, and the right side was also attacked at the same time, but it was a magic archer skill burst shot, which turned the seven or eight archers' bombers on their backs. A penetrating shot wounded two people. Of the thirty archers, only a few persisted in a charged shot, and the rest didn't know where their arrows had hit.

The ten men stood up in ignorance, covered with dust, and did not observe the enemy's situation, but first looked at their war horses, only to see a crossbow bolt with the thickness of a thumb stuck under the tail of the war horse, leaving only three inches of arrows outside. This arrow is both ruthless and poisonous, and the life of the war horse continues to fall, if there is no sacrifice to cast a spell, the war horse will not live for ten breaths! In a trance, a scimitar slashed down, and the ten people subconsciously waved the knife to block, but forgot that their scimitar had been lost at the moment of falling off the horse, and was slashed in the arm.

The person who came was the Kunshan Stone that had broken through into the enemy formation. He slashed the enemy with a single sword, and tried to slash again, but was attacked by another ten-man commander. The ten-man chief was none other than Mark: "Curry! Watch your back! The ten-man man turned around, and Boss Su's Frost City Guardian roared again, and an arrow exploded his head. He received three heavy blows in a row, such as a fall, a broken arm, and a strong nu, and he couldn't hold on anymore and fell headlong.

Kunshan Shi broke into the enemy formation alone, and before the cavalry behind him arrived, a sudden gust of wind struck the sand and dust raised by the horse team on the faces of the Kalemak people. Kunshan Shi shouted: "Immortal Heaven is helping us!" Kill all these jackals! ”

The leader was dead, the defensive formation was broken by the Kirghiz with the momentum of the tiger descending the mountain, and the formation of the Kalemak cavalry was in disarray. Mark automatically took on the responsibility of leading the team: "Shrink the formation, each team huddles, and let out the flaws and let their cavalry rush over!" Wait for them to slow down and fight again......"

This group of Kirgiz people is not a rookie on the battlefield, knowing that once their arrows penetrate the enemy position, they will be weakened in the future, and they will lose their current favorable terrain when they turn around and fight again. After their horse team broke into the enemy's formation, they divided to both sides, almost dividing the more than forty people of Calmak into three places, and only then did they stabilize their horses and begin to fight with each other. Twenty Kalemak soldiers had fallen behind the Kirghiz cavalry, but they could not take advantage of the higher terrain to attack, because twelve herdsmen's warriors on foot had already arrived at the battlefield and joined forces with the cavalry in the middle of the battlefield to encircle them. These shepherds, who had just turned into 'bandits', although their combat effectiveness was not very strong, but after the addition of Kunshan Stone Battle Song and the use of the momentum of diving, they actually scattered the Calmak people who had just been grouped again. Blood bloomed like flowers, shouts of killing echoed through the valley, and occasionally thunderbolts rang out.

Baron Twilight, Nine Heavens of the Phoenix Dance, and Agibayi were still entrenched on the periphery of the battlefield, and the three of them gathered fire, forced, explosive, and penetrating shots, and greeted the ten elders in the middle of the Calmaks. For each person they killed, the morale of the Kalemak people dropped by three points, and compared to the Kyrgyz people with high morale, there were only fifty percent of the combat strength left at most, and they were all the last courage to save their lives.

In this battle, fifty-five Kalmaks were completely annihilated. The Kirghiz sacrificed eight cavalry and ten herdsmen who had just joined. Blood soaked the entire mountain bag.

Su Cheng, Fengwu Jiutian, Ajibayi, and Kunshan Shi were upgraded again.

Ignoring the celebration, Kunshan Shi immediately arranged for someone to inform the princess to prepare to evacuate: "The others will clean up the battlefield immediately." Nothing but horses, food, and weapons are to be touched! Separate the corpses of the Kalemaks from those of the Kyrgyz - they should be neatly arranged and leave the last dignity of the dead! I repeat: except horses, food, and weapons, nothing else of the dead must be moved! Violators will be killed! ”

The baron walked up to Kunshan Shi: "Shanshi, many soldiers who equip us can also use it." Why not? ”

Kunshan Shi hurriedly stroked his chest and saluted: "My lord is not in the army, I don't know." The remains of enemy fighters were laid out as a sign of respect among the soldiers. In this way, the opposing reinforcements will also treat the remains of our soldiers kindly. As you can see, we don't have time to place the remains of our comrades! ”

The baron was appreciative of this: "It is a very valuable tradition for soldiers to maintain this basic respect even when they are hostile to each other. However, the soldiers are fast, which will delay the time for the princess to evacuate. In this way, you take the princess first. I'll deal with the remnants of the battlefield. ”

Kunshan Shi went on to explain: "There are still such traditions. Even if we can only leave the battlefield one step earlier, the enemy must first clean up the battlefield and collect the remains of our comrades. My lord, this is the last little bit of respect a soldier has for the dead in battle! If their commander fails to do this, it will arouse the disgust of the soldiers under his command, not only will the morale of the whole army drop and the combat strength will be damaged, but the next battle, the soldiers may even disobey orders and avoid fighting. For the commander, the gains really outweigh the losses. You can rest assured! ”

Kunshan Shi was born in the army, and Boss Su couldn't believe in the tradition he said: "Then what should we do with the bones of our comrades?" ”

"If we treat their brothers' bones well, they have no reason to let our brothers run into the wilderness. What do you think, what are the big-headed soldiers most afraid of? First, there was a fire in the backyard and the family house changed; The second is to die on the battlefield but have no burial! Rest assured, the bones of the brothers will be buried in the most basic way! ”
