Chapter Ninety-Six: Breakout
The indefatigability of the team members made Liu Ping feel very moved, but he would never agree to everyone's approach.
"Hehe, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to do it, but because I think it's actually the best choice if I stay alone. Your mind, I understand it, but the current situation is different from before, before, you were needed here, without you, the logistics would be a mess, but now, the logistics can be completely ignored, strength is the most important. After all, you don't have any combat power, and if you stay here now, you won't be able to help me much, and if I'm the only one, when the situation is critical, I can make a temporary decision on whether to fight or stay, and I don't have any scruples. ”
Wang Dahai grinned: "This reason is not suitable for me." ”
Liu Ping walked over and slapped Wang Dahai's chest: "Okay, I know that you are righteous, but you really can't stay here." ”
"Why?"
Liu Ping pointed at Jun Ningxiang with his finger, and then pointed at Wu Yun: "Look at her, look at her again, without you, do you think the two of them can break through the siege and escape from the pursuit of the Persians?" ”
He patted Wang Dahai on the shoulder with his hand: "The entire reincarnation team, now only you and I are able to confront the Persian army head-on. You're good at attacking, I'm good at defending, so it's a good distribution. I stayed here to guard the hot spring pass, to prevent everyone from being wiped out by the main god because the task was not completed; You left to lead everyone out of the siege so that they could escape safely. ”
Everyone couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, what Liu Ping said was indeed reasonable, leaving everyone speechless.
Liu Ping turned his head and looked around: "Don't think that if I stay, I will be more dangerous than you." In fact, the most dangerous thing is you, after all, there are too many of you, and there are wounded people, Wang Dahai is alone, in fact, it is difficult to take care of so many people. ”
Although Liu Ping said so, everyone is not stupid, and naturally everyone knows that Liu Ping, who chooses to stay, is the real danger.
After all, according to the plan, Liu Ping needed to defend the hot spring pass, and he had to stay until the evening before retreating.
Because only at that time can the reincarnation team really hold the hot spring pass for seven days.
And once the Persians will be surrounded by the hot springs, Liu Ping will only be trapped in the Zhongmen Canyon, and at that time, he will inevitably have to face attacks from all sides all the time, and want to keep the hot springs until night, the danger of this is terrifying for anyone who thinks about it.
John suddenly looked at Wei Xuan: "Is there really no other way?" ”
After hearing John's words, everyone couldn't help but look at Wei Xuan, hoping that he could give him some other good way.
But in the face of John's inquiry and everyone's expectant eyes, Wei Xuan could only smile bitterly and shake his head, speechless.
Seeing this, Liu Ping couldn't help but sigh secretly, it seemed that Wei Xuan had been frightened by this sudden situation, and he hadn't seen any useful ideas for so long.
Shaking his head, Liu Ping took a deep breath, straightened his chest, and looked serious: "Now that time is pressing, I still need to discuss the defense with Leonidas immediately, I don't have time to discuss it with you here slowly, I am the captain, everyone must listen to me!" I have already decided, everyone, immediately under the leadership of Wang Dahai, to break through to the south! ”
Wu Yun didn't sell Liu Ping's account at all, and at this moment, she still strongly asked to stay and not leave, and her reason was also very good: "My left leg is broken, and I can only drag everyone down with everyone if I break through with everyone, so it's better to stay with you." ”
Liu Ping was immediately angry and yelled at her: "Nonsense! You're just broken in your lower leg, and it's not that you can't walk, it's just that you walk a little slower! And this breakout, but let you break through on horseback, don't say that only one leg is broken, or both are broken, I can still tie you to the horse! ”
was yelled at by Liu Ping like this, and glared at her fiercely, Wu Yun finally stopped talking, she knew that Liu Ping's mind had been decided, so she had to be obedient and do whatever she was told to do. Just as she was ready to go, her tears never stopped.
At this time, there was nothing to clean up, and under Liu Ping's order, in addition to taking some water and food, each of them brought a knife and a shield with their weapons.
Climbing on their horses, everyone gathered in the open space south of the camp.
Except for the Spartans, all the militia soldiers, laborers, and believers had come here at this moment.
Five hundred militia soldiers will rush to the forefront with Wang Dahai, and they are also a powerful help for the reincarnation team to successfully break through.
As for the almost tens of thousands of migrant workers and believers, they will break through with Wang Dahai together with other members of the reincarnation team, and if they can successfully break through, they are the key to whether the reincarnation team can get rid of the Persians.
Although they don't have much combat power, after all, the number is there, and as long as so many people disperse in a hurry, the Persians must have a headache, and they don't know who to hunt down.
Before leaving, Liu Ping couldn't help but tell them again: "Remember! The shepherd's trail was only thirty kilometers away, and there must have been quite a few Persian soldiers there. Before they go north, you must rush all the way south without stopping! Ten kilometers from here, to the east, there is a primeval forest, and when you get there, you immediately break away from the army, hide in the woods, and go all the way east until you find the main road. ”
Wang Dahai smiled: "I know, you have said it N times, with me here, you can rest assured." ”
"Hehe, it's me who is verbose, okay, hurry up and go!"
Wang Dahai nodded at him, shouted loudly, and rushed out with five hundred militia soldiers.
After Wang Dahai rushed out more than 100 meters, Liu Ping waved his hand, and the rest of the reincarnation team, tens of thousands of migrant workers and believers also rushed out together.
It was only at this moment that Wu Yun suddenly remembered something, hurriedly pulled the reins, stopped the horse under him, turned his head and shouted to Liu Pingyuan: "After we break through, where are we waiting for you?!" ”
Liu Ping thought for a moment, and then shouted: "Go to Sparta City!" ”
Wu Yun nodded from afar, signaling that he already knew, and chased after John and the others with his feet between the horse's belly......
To the south of the camp is a small jungle, with high mountains on both sides of the jungle, steep and difficult, and a road through the forest.
Hundreds of Persian cavalry were now on the road, not only armed with spears, but also carrying longbows, and they were the only Persian soldiers in the vicinity who showed their whereabouts.
Wang Dahai rode his horse and rushed forward, and five hundred militia soldiers followed closely behind, and soon came within range of the Persian bows and arrows.
A Persian cavalryman dressed slightly differently from the others, who seemed to be the captain of this group, saw him slowly raise his right hand high, and all the Persian cavalry immediately put down the spears in their hands, but took off the longbow behind them, and then pulled the bow and arrows, and aimed them at Wang Dahai and them.
With the Persian captain's hand swinging heavily, the hundreds of Persian cavalry shot arrows in their hands together.
At the same time, in the jungle on both sides of the road, countless arrows suddenly flew out without warning, and together with the arrows shot by the hundreds of cavalry, they flew towards Wang Dahai and the militia soldiers.
There were so many Persian archers hidden in the jungle, which greatly surprised everyone, and Wang Dahai, who bore the brunt of the attack, was even more shocked.
However, there was no turning back from the bow, although the enemy's strength far exceeded everyone's previous expectations, but at this moment, all those who needed to break through had already rushed out of the camp, and they couldn't stop if they wanted to, after all, they were not regular soldiers, and they couldn't do the order.
Wang Dahai desperately brandished the Qinglong Yanyue Knife on his horse, knocking countless arrows towards him, but he knew that under such a dense rain of arrows, he could only protect himself at most, and the horse he sat on must not be able to save it.
The first wave of arrow rain of Persian archers caused not very many casualties, except for the killing of Wang Dahai's mount, the five hundred militia soldiers only lost more than fifty people.
However, as the distance between the militia soldiers and the Persian archers gradually narrowed, the second wave of arrows fired by the Persian archers also rose in a straight line, causing hundreds of casualties among the militia soldiers at once.
At this time, according to the speed of the militia soldiers, if they want to rush to the jungle, they will have to endure at least two more baptisms of arrows.
If the Persian archers were really allowed to shoot two more rounds of arrows so unscrupulously, these militia soldiers probably wouldn't have survived by then.
Wang Dahai, as the main force of the charge, naturally would not let this happen.
Since his mount was killed by the first round of arrows, Wang Dahai immediately transformed into a werewolf, and then rushed towards the jungle on all fours.
At this moment, he was advancing even faster than the fastest warhorse, but when the second wave of arrows fell, he had already rushed into the jungle on the east side of the road.
The jungle was originally the world of wolves, and after transforming into a werewolf, Wang Dahai naturally also liked to fight in the jungle, so as soon as he entered the jungle, the Persian archers hiding inside immediately fell into bad luck.
At this time, he was like a ghost, setting off a bloody wind in the jungle, and countless miserable screams and screams had been ringing in the depths of the jungle without stopping since he entered the jungle.
Wang Dahai's terrifying killing speed and brutal methods caused the Persian archers in the eastern jungle to be in chaos, some tried to stop Wang Dahai's killing, some people still insisted on shooting arrows at the militia soldiers, and some people had turned around and tried to escape from this terrifying jungle.
Wang Dahai did not chase those enemies who planned to flee, and even the archers who attacked him, as long as they were not on his way, he also ignored them, and at this moment, he only killed those archers who still insisted on shooting arrows at the militia soldiers.
Although there were a lot of archers in the jungle in the east, after Wang Dahai rushed back and forth like this, there was no one who could shoot an arrow at the charging militia soldiers, and they were either lying on the ground as corpses, or desperately fleeing into the depths of the jungle.
After killing the Persian archers in the eastern jungle, Wang Dahai immediately slaughtered into the western jungle, and as for the Persian cavalry, they had already left their place at this time, and were fighting with the militia soldiers who rushed over.
The captain of the Persian cavalry, who has a lot of combat experience, has known since he saw Wang Dahai transform into a werewolf, and then rush into the eastern jungle at an extremely terrifying speed, he already knows that these people can no longer rely on archery alone to stop this wave of attacks.
As the captain of the Persian cavalry, he knew very well that the cavalry, only when they charged, had speed and impact, could they have the greatest lethality, since in a short time, they could not shoot all the enemies who came with bows and arrows, then it was a waste for this group of cavalry to stay here, it was better to rush out, even if they could not disperse the enemy, but it was still no problem to entangle them, and in doing so, it could also create opportunities for other archers to kill the enemy.
So he ordered all the horsemen to put away their longbows, take up the spears that were placed on their saddles, and then followed him and rushed towards the militia soldiers.
Although because of the distance, the Persian cavalry failed to increase the speed of the horse charge to the fastest, but the cavalry is the cavalry, and there are only less than half of the militia soldiers left, so naturally it is impossible to be the opponent of these hundreds of cavalry, and the whole team was quickly rushed to pieces.
