Chapter 257
Chapter 257
The combat power of the cavalry is well known, once it rushes into the camp of the Snow Army to separate the Snow Army, the original situation is that the Night Army is deeply encircled, but now it has become the Snow Army deep into the encirclement, and the original hope of victory disappeared in an instant, Xu Tianyi watched the cavalry of the Night Kingdom rush into the melee area from both sides, and rushed into the formation of the Snow Army without any resistance.
There were too many cavalry in the Night Country, and those Night Army, who didn't know anything about the situation in front of them, faced the charge of the cavalry, and the entire formation was directly rushed away, and no amount of spears could stop the cavalry's charge.
Under the leadership of Zhao Xu and others, the cavalry on both sides could easily separate the front and rear of the Snow Army and change the formation of the battlefield. It was only at this time that the snow army, which was surrounded by the night army, gradually realized their situation, and one by one they couldn't help but turn to look at the cavalry that was rushing towards them.
It was the army of the night army, the originally powerful snow army was panicked from top to bottom, the unstoppable momentum just now was fleeting, and all the snow troops surrounded by cavalry were thinking about retreating.
Those snow troops who were not surrounded, whether they had participated in the war a long time ago or had just joined the battle, were now in a state of confusion, and they only wanted to flee for their lives quickly. The commander of the Snow Army stood on the chariot and watched these cavalry rush away from the formation of the Snow Army with great difficulty, and suddenly aged a few years.
The general trend has gone, and a feeling of frustration arises spontaneously, Marshal Xu no longer has any will to fight to the death with the night army, and at the same time, Qingyuan next to him asked Xu Tianyi in a panic what to do.
"Ahh......h
The night troops who were deeply encircled and constantly suppressed by the Snow Army before were now fighting back one by one, although the weapons in their hands were short, but their courage was long. On the other side, the panicked snow army gradually understood their situation, like their siege soldiers that night, the snow army in the middle knew that they had been isolated.
Recalling the performance of the snow army trapped on the other side of the river bank that night, the snow army became panicked one by one, and the fear spread quickly among the army, even the snow army generals were affected.
In the absence of a correct command, the morale of the snow army was already extremely low in a moment, and the defeat was like a mountain, and in an instant, all the surrounded snow army turned around like a tide and wanted to run to the rear. It's a pity that the Night Nation cavalry behind them is waiting for them, and when the morale of the Snow Army collapses, a massacre intensifies,
Unexpectedly, the Snow Army was defeated so neatly, and Lin Xuanzhong, who was still worried about the safety of the three of them, gradually found that the enemy army had all lost their fighting spirit, and kept retreating to the rear one by one.
I don't know when, the two Da Niu brothers took advantage of the chaos to pick up two long weapons from the ground and rushed towards the fleeing Snow Army. For a while, the Snow Army was killed by the Night Army screaming again and again, and the end was miserable one by one. Without morale, the Snow Army behaved like a group of ordinary people without force.
The current Snow Army can't stop the night army at all, and the commander of the Snow Army, who is still thinking about how to be good, has no choice but to find that he doesn't need to think about it at this moment, and the battle line can no longer be maintained.
"Withdraw," an order was given, and a rapid gong sound came from the rear of the snow army. It was the signal to retreat, and when the generals of the Snow Army who were struggling to support heard the evacuation signal, they immediately shouted to the soldiers near them: "Withdraw." ”
In a blink of an eye, tens of thousands of Snow Army lost their fighting spirit, and they only thought about escaping. At the same time, Xu Tianyi's chariot ran to the rear at great speed, and the snow army that was not surrounded quickly withdrew behind the chariot, and the snow army that was encircled quickly fell into a situation where the sky should not be called the earth, and almost no one could break through the battle line of the night cavalry.
Seeing that the Snow Army wanted to escape, more than 20,000 Night Country cavalry immediately divided into a gallop and chased after them, and under the leadership of several generals, they rushed and killed non-stop.
Under the pursuit of the Night Cavalry, the Snow Army was even more embarrassed, and the soldiers who were originally injured were easily hit by others, and then they never got up. In the chaos, as long as someone falls, there is only one end of being trampled to death.
No matter how fast the snow army runs, it still can't outrun the cavalry galloping on the horses, and the slaughter continues, and the snow army that only cares about fleeing has no power to resist in the face of the fierce night army. On the contrary, the cavalry of the Night Kingdom showed great bravery one by one, as if they were very keen on killing, killing the defenseless Snow Army without leaving a single piece of armor.
In a blink of an eye, those snow soldiers have been chased and killed a mile away, and the snow army on the battlefield saw that their commander had taken the lead in escaping with other soldiers, and shouted in despair, but unfortunately this could not stop the killing of the night army, and finally many generals committed suicide in shame, and some generals simply surrendered to the night army.
Led by those generals, the ordinary soldiers of the Snow Army followed suit, laid down their arms one by one, and then raised their hands and shouted in horror to the Night Army: "We surrender." ”
It was the first time that the Night Army had encountered such a situation, and one by one the ordinary soldiers stopped their movements, and then looked at their generals in surprise.
The generals of the night army looked at the other generals, a general with the same strength as himself actually threw away his weapon in front of him like this, bowed his head, how humble and unbearable, even if the generals of the night country had the intention to cut them off their horses, it was difficult to attack.
Of course, there are some Night Kingdom generals who have suffered losses in the previous confrontation with the Snow Army, and when they saw the other party surrender, they did not hesitate to wave their weapons and cut off the opponent's head, which can be regarded as a bad breath.
Seeing that there was still a possibility of surviving the surrender, the Snow Army, from generals to ordinary soldiers, put down their weapons one after another and surrendered to the Night Army.
Zhao Wu on the chariot found the special situation on the battlefield, but did not expect the snow army to take the initiative to surrender, although the snow army still loses if the fight continues, but this can always reduce the casualties of his own sergeants, Zhao Wu does not object to the surrender of the enemy.
"Marshal, the Snow Army has surrendered to us, what should we do?" Zhao Xu and a cadre of generals came over to report the situation to Zhao Wuyu because they couldn't make up their minds.
"Disarm them, don't kill them again," too many people have died in this battle, although the night army has won a great victory, there is no need to annihilate the snow army, Zhao Wu, with a little mercy, made a decision in a blink of an eye, leaving the snow army on the battlefield alive, "and then escort them to the open area." ”
"Yes," Zhao Wu's order was the highest military order, although Zhao Xu and the other generals didn't understand why Zhao Wu decided like this, and they all thought that it would be the easiest to kill those snow troops, but they didn't question Zhao Wu's decision, because Zhao Wu's face at this time was no different from the face when he made decisions in the past.
"Zhao Xu, you take a few people on fast horses to chase the camp master and generalize them, and let them lead the troops back immediately. "Calculating that the time is almost the same, the troops fleeing from the Snow Army should have suffered a lot of casualties, and there is no need for the night army over there to chase any further, let alone continue to pursue.
"Marshal, the Snow Army has collapsed, why don't we keep chasing and killing to the end?" The soldiers on the side originally felt that it was not suitable for Zhao Wu to kill the Snow Army that surrendered, and now he couldn't figure out why Zhao Wu wanted to withdraw his troops. In this person's opinion, wouldn't it be better to chase down the snow army all the way.
The problem of the night country joining the army is also the problem of the other generals, and Zhao Xu and the generals who have not left all want to hear Zhao Wu's explanation.
"There are still more than tens of thousands of snow troops who fled with the commander of the snow army, although the strength is weak, but our army must be limited in number," after a pause, Zhao Wu explained indifferently: "The commander of the snow army is still there, and the army's spirit still has a foothold, and I am worried that in the end, the snow army may follow the orders of their commander and rise up to resist, which is not good for our army." ”
Zhao Wu's explanation was not detailed, and there were still some things that the Night Kingdom was puzzled about, but this person did not ask any further. "It's Lin who is talkative, and everything is up to the marshal," on the other hand, Ye Guo joined the army and saw a trace of impatience in Zhao Wu's eyes.
"Don't go quickly," Zhao Wu's mind was on the cavalry that pursued the enemy, the role of cavalry on the battlefield was obvious, it was definitely a sharp weapon among the three armies, and it could not be missed.
"Yes," Zhao Xu and the same general immediately received the order.
"Pass on my military order, if they are greedy for merit, do not listen to the general's order, and do not immediately collect the troops, they will be dealt with by military law after they come back," Zhao Xu Before they left, Zhao Wu specially explained.
"Yes," Zhao Xu and the others took the order again, and then galloped away one by one, chasing straight in the direction where the snow army had left.
The generals still didn't understand Zhao Wu's intentions, and in their opinion, it was very puzzling that the night army was obviously having enough advantages to retreat now. However, when they thought that the outcome of this battle was under Zhao Wu's control from the beginning, they did not dare to have any objections to Zhao Wu's decision.
"Marshal, what should I do here now?" After a few people left, the few generals left behind asked Zhao Wu for instructions.
"Act according to the previous instructions of the commander," retracting his gaze from Zhao Xu and his party, Zhao Wu looked at the generals in front of him with a calm expression and said: "General Li, you immediately go back to the city to bring back the news of the victory, and send some soldiers over to clean up the battlefield, and everyone else goes to the battlefield." ”
"Yes," the generals all took the order, except for General Na Li who returned to the city, the other generals returned to their original positions and ordered the night army to carry out Zhao Wu's orders. The battle on the battlefield in front of him was all over, and the only thing Zhao Wu was worried about on the chariot was those cavalry.
Originally, Huangyanguan's direct subordinates could say that there would be some problems on the side of the reinforcements that could be transferred, and Zhao Wu was worried that his military orders could not be carried out immediately.
