Chapter 331: The Decisive Battle (5)

The black smoke from the burning oil slowly rose, making the already gloomy sky even more oppressive, and the ground that had been burned and trampled back and forth was like cinders in the stove, black and broken.

On top of this land, there was a layer of strangely shaped corpses, some with hideous faces, some with dead faces, still maintaining the posture of stabbing knives into the bodies of their enemies.

The corpses were left back and forth, and the bodies of the first group of dead people had not yet been collected, and the latter group of dead people fell in the same place, and in just a few hours, the corpses were spread several layers on the hillside.

The crows kept circling in the sky, making an excited "quacking" sound, and it was definitely a feast for them that had never been seen before, but their appearance added a touch of desolation to the battlefield.

"Dashuai, Dashuai!"

Zhang Xiaoqi, the commander of the personal guard, took the few remaining personal soldiers to dig Chi Shengwei out of the corpse.

Ji Shengwei let out a long breath, and the violent movement made him cover his lower abdomen.

He had a long wound in his lower abdomen, which was caused by a long axe cutting through his breastplate, but fortunately the wound was not too deep, and it was now scabbed, so it was okay for the time being.

"How long has Ben Shuai been in a coma?"

Ji Shengwei asked in a muttered manner.

Zhang Xiaoqi said: "It's only about half a moment. ”

"Half a ......"

Chi Shengwei's face changed: "The enemy should immediately organize manpower to recapture the position, quickly, let the brothers cheer up, it is not easy to take this hill, and the barbarians of the Southern Dynasty must not be easily recaptured." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaoqi shook his head and said, "Chi Shuai, there are only a few of our brothers left in the guard battalion, we have to withdraw quickly, otherwise the enemy will be finished as soon as they come up." ”

Chi Shengwei looked at Zhang Xiaoqi, and saw that there were only a dozen people sitting on the pile of corpses, all of them injured, looking at him pleadingly.

He was slightly stunned: "What about the forward battalion, didn't it join them?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqi's face darkened: "There is no forward battalion left, the forward battalion commander Zhang Qian died in battle, and the deputy generals Li Zhen and Wang Tinglu have also been martyred, when we received the forward battalion, there were only thirty people left, and they all died in the first battle." ”

"All Dead......

Chi Shengwei's face stiffened, and he muttered: "The forward battalion of five thousand people is all folded here......

As he spoke, he suddenly grabbed Zhang Xiaoqi's wrist and said, "What about the other people?" ”

Zhang Xiaoqi had tears in his eyes, and said sadly: "The last general doesn't know, the personal soldiers responsible for delivering the news are all dead, and the command has long been paralyzed. ”

As he spoke, two lines of bean-sized tears flowed down the eyes of this iron-clad man.

"What are you crying about!"

Chi Shengwei said angrily: "We have suffered heavy casualties, can the enemy be better?" You see, the enemy will organize a counterattack immediately after losing their position, and now a moment has passed, and their return artillery has not yet sounded, which means that they, like us, have reached the limit!

Get up! Now is the most critical time, if you don't want to die here, you must not give up, once you give up on the battlefield, it is equivalent to suicide, quickly! ”

Zhang Xiaoqi nodded, wiped away his tears, got up from the ground, and beckoned the remaining dozen or so guards, ready to deal with the enemy who might rush up at any time.

Chi Shengwei's gaze swept over the bleak battlefield, silently calculating the out-of-control battle situation in his heart, and muttered: "If you want to win this battle, you must take down the valley defense line in front of you, but the Tiger Ben Right Guard, who undertook the main attack task, has basically lost its combat effectiveness.

Xiao Shuai, where are the reinforcements you are talking about? If there are no more reinforcements, this battle will be completely lost, and the centuries-old foundation of my northern kingdom will be buried here! ”

"How did the Forward Battalion get down? Let them keep on the offensive, they must rush to the top of this mountain! ”

On the battlefield on the southern front, Liang Tongfang raised the long sword in his hand, looked angrily at the battle situation a hundred meters away, and kept shouting.

The adjutant general beside him said: "General Qiyu, the forward battalion has rushed three times in a row, and the enemy's defense is too tenacious, and they are about to lose their breath!" ”

"If you can't hold it, you have to stretch it!"

Liang Tongfang grabbed the lieutenant general's collar and reprimanded angrily: "We must maintain pressure on the battle line, otherwise the entire front will not be able to hold on, and then it will be a big rout!" ”

The adjutant general said with a bitter face: "The last general also knows that this battle cannot be lost, but we have been fighting for three hours in a row, and the soldiers are already very tired. ”

"Fuck you!"

Liang Tongfang kicked the deputy general in the chest, kicked him to the ground, and said loudly: "When soldiers eat food, the court supports us, so we have to suffer what others can't bear, and retreat when we encounter some difficulties, what does the court want us cowards to do?" ”

The deputy general Liang Tongfang was embarrassed, and he pulled out the waist knife that had already rolled the blade, and a fierce light shot out of his scarlet eyes.

Liang Tongfang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered: "What are you going to do?" ”

The adjutant general said in a deep voice: "The last general is not a coward, since the commander wants us to do everything, then the last general will lead people to rush again!" ”

Liang Tongfang didn't expect the deputy general to say this, and was slightly stunned.

The adjutant general gritted his teeth and continued: "The last general is willing to make a military order, if he can't take the mountain in front of him this time, the last general will go to accompany the brothers who fell on the hillside, never live alone, but the battle situation is complicated, at the moment our army is already very passive, I hope the marshal will make plans early, don't blindly attack again!" ”

"You ......"

Liang Tongfang was stunned for a while when he heard this, but the deputy general didn't wait for him to react, so he hugged his fist slightly: "Take care, the last general!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Liang Tongfang standing in the middle of a group of pro-soldiers, his face pale.

Looking at the deputy-general in the distance, Liang Tongfang came back to his senses for a long time, stomped his feet violently, swept his eyes to the valley behind, and muttered in his mouth: "Little Marquis, reinforcements, where are your reinforcements?" ”

"Have the reinforcements arrived?"

In the camp of the Chinese army, Xiao Jinwu, who has always been the most calm, was also anxious, and he couldn't sit still anymore, he kept pacing back and forth, and every once in a while he would ask Yuan Shiyuan beside him if there was any movement of reinforcements.

Like countless previous answers, Yuan Shiyuan kept a calm face and shook his head helplessly.

Xiao Jinwu felt irritable in his heart, and casually lifted a cup of tea that he didn't know who it was and drank it dry, forcing himself to calm down.

At this time, the tent was much deserted, all the generals were ordered to go out of battle, and even the 30,000 border troops who guarded the Chinese army had been out for a long time, and the entire Chinese army had completely become an empty city.

This battle has been fought to the point of exhaustion, Xiao Jinwu has already played every card in his hand, at this time it is completely gambling, as long as there is a gap in the tight front, it is a situation of losing the whole game.

That's why he's so desperate to see reinforcements.

"Handsome ......"

Yuan Shiyuan opened his mouth, he wanted to persuade Xiao Jinwu to prepare for the other hand, but his eyes swept over the battlefield dynamic map, and when he saw the chaotic battle front, he understood that the army had already made the final bet, and it was too late to withdraw at this time.

He sighed to himself and clenched his sword, ready for the worst.

Isn't it just death, he Yuan Shiyuan is willing to rest with the country, how can he spare a life?

At this moment, a pro-soldier suddenly opened the curtain and rushed in: "Dashuai, here, here, reinforcements are coming!" ”

"What?!"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Jinwu and Yuan Shiyuan were suddenly shocked.

"You said that the reinforcements arrived, where are they, who led the troops, and how many are there?"

Without waiting for Yuan Shiyuan to speak, Xiao Jinwu rushed to his own soldiers and asked eagerly.

The pro-soldier finally took a breath and said hurriedly: "Scout, the scout found a large number of people and horses thirty miles away in the northwest, lighting wolf smoke as a signal, and I don't know who led the troops and how many people and horses there are." ”

"What ......"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinwu and Yuan Shiyuan hurriedly looked at the dynamic map of the battlefield, and the soldiers had already marked the location on the map according to the latest news.

However, after only a few glances, Yuan Shiyuan's face suddenly changed.

"No, the northwest is the rear of the battlefield, how can reinforcements appear in this position?"

Xiao Jinwu said with a calm face: "That's not our reinforcements, it's the Black Flag Army that has gone and returned!" ”

"What?!"

Yuan Shiyuan's face suddenly turned pale, his legs were weak, and he sat on the ground.
