Chapter 129: Fight Again
Wei Xiao was carried back to Zitong Pass.
Before he had reached the city, he fell from his horse, and the soldiers who answered him hurriedly brought a stretcher, lifted him up, and carried him back to the city.
Of the 8,000 iron horsemen who went out, there were still more than 7,500 people left when they returned, and only nearly 400 people were lost, but the enemy army was killed by 5,000 or 6,000 people, which is said to be a very good record.
Although every elite iron rider who returned to the city suffered a lot of injuries, everyone seemed to have been fished out of the blood.
When Bai Qianyu removed the iron armor from Wei Xiao's body, he didn't take it off, but peeled it off hard, Wei Xiao suffered forty or fifty injuries of all sizes, some were heavy and some were light, some were deep and visible, and some were more than a foot long, and the blood that flowed out of his body was through the gaps in the iron armor, and when the blood dried up, he almost stuck his skin with his clothes and iron armor.
Bai Qianyu changed five or six buckets of water in a row, and the water wrung out of the soft cloth that wiped Wei Xiao's body gradually became clear instead of blood.
The first time she saw a man's bare upper body, she was shy and nervous in her heart, and her fingers trembled when she wiped it for Wei Xiao.
However, seeing so many wounds on his body, the distress drove her to overcome all shyness, cleaned the wound for him, applied the golden medicine, and then changed into clean cotton and linen underwear and helped him lie down.
She didn't even dare to cover him with a heavy quilt, just because those large and small wounds, as soon as they touched it, Wei Xiao was so painful that even her muscles were trembling.
Clover knew some rudimentary healing spells, squatted at the head of the bed, sprayed some recovery nectar for Wei Xiao, restored purple qi or something, and then kept asking: "Wei Xiao, do you hurt?"
At this moment, a man with a gloomy face strode in without saying a word.
Now even Bai Qianyu is familiar with it, and it is the general Lou Fu who is unhappy all day long, and he is shouting every day, "It's annoying to fight without a war!" and "When can I go to war?", which really matches his name.
He hit his head in front of Wei Xiao's bed and knelt on one knee: "General Wei, please fight!"
Wei Xiao barely stood up and said two words: "No." ”
"What?!" Lou Fu suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart, as if he was about to explode in his chest, and pointed out with his hand: "That group of enemy troops is outside the city gate, injuring you like this, Murong Chui's kid also sent people to fight under the city gate all day long, and you still don't let me fight?"
His eyes seemed to be on fire, glaring at Wei Xiao.
Wei Xiao also looked at him without flinching, and his tone was sharp: "Have you forgotten the three conditions that you promised me before you set out on the expedition?"
Two people, like two fierce tigers, face each other.
In the middle of the night, Lou Fufang punched on the bed board, shattered the corner, and roared from his throat: "I haven't forgotten!"
Then he got up and strode out.
When he walked out of the door, Wei Xiaofang stroked the wound on his body with one hand and frowned slightly.
The shock just now shook the wound and cracked it open again, and there were faint traces of blood on the bandage that wrapped around the wound.
Bai Qianyu hurriedly helped Wei Xiao to lie down: "General Lou is really, seeing that you are so seriously injured, he came to quarrel with you." ”
Wei Xiao gritted his teeth and bitter face, but suddenly showed a smile: "He just doesn't want to see me like this, so he can't wait to fight for me...... But I just don't let him fight, the so-called tiger is to raise more and sharpen the minions, so that when the cage is released, it will be more hurtful!"
Bai Qianyu sighed with a heavy heart: "You, you are so seriously injured, it is not easy to rest, but you still have to worry about so many things, it turns out that this general is not so easy to be!"
Clover also raised his head, looked at Wei Xiao, and sighed: "I thought that being a general was to sit in the big tent all day long, and command a few generals under him to fight, how majestic and majestic it should be, but now it seems that it is better to do nothing like me!"
Wei Xiao looked at the two of them, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth: "As long as you two are here, I, the general, will neither feel bitter nor tired...... Oh yes," he raised his head and looked at Bai Qianyu, with a hint of begging in his eyes: "Qianyu, the 'osmanthus glutinous rice cake' you made yesterday, I think it's very delicious, I don't know why at this time, I just want to eat this bite." ”
"Then I'll do it for you quickly," Bai Qianyu couldn't help but be happy when he heard that he was so worried about his craft, and hurriedly stood up from the head of the bed and said: "That process is complicated, when it is done, I am afraid that it will take an hour or two, you can bear with it first." ”
As he spoke, he hurried to the back kitchen.
Clover hurriedly followed her, jumping and shouting, "What did you steal to eat yesterday while I was sleeping?" You didn't even call me, I want to go to the kitchen and eat the freshest bake, huh!"
Wei Xiao looked at the backs of the two of them leaving, the smile in his eyes gradually disappeared, and he changed to a calm and cold expression, he gritted his teeth and got up, slowly put on the dragon scale armor, fastened his belt, and when he walked to the door, his steps stopped slightly, looked in the direction of the back kitchen, and said silently in his heart: "Qianyu, Shamrock, I'm sorry! I have no choice but to do this, I don't want to worry about you." ”
Then he turned his head, grabbed the plain silver spear leaning against the corner, and walked out.
This time, he still ordered 8,000 iron horsemen, after last night's battle, although more than 400 Phantom warriors sacrificed their lives, but the blow to the enemy army greatly boosted morale, everyone asked to fight, eager to join this heroic team.
In addition to those who were too seriously injured to go to the battlefield last night, Wei Xiao left nearly half of the number, and replaced three or four thousand brave and warlike cavalry, supplemented into the team, and formed a "Tongguan Iron Cavalry", which was strong and strong, and stayed until midnight, and quietly opened the city as yesterday, and marched to the army outside the city.
This time, he still didn't avoid the pair of eyes that had been watching his every move in the dark.
Lou Fu's eyes looked almost a little desperate, and the dignified eight-foot man's words were a little complaining: "It's fighting again......!
Wei Xiao was ruthless, ignored him, and led the crowd out of the city.
The night was deep, and the starlit earth was so quiet that you could hear the wind flowing on the earth.
The grass on the ground began to frost and looked white, and the horses' hooves were wet on it.
The weather is getting colder day by day.
Wei Xiao looked at the direction of the North Star, tightened his armor, and thought silently in his heart: "No matter how lonely I walk in the night, no matter how far I have to go, but as long as I know that you are the star, and have been silently illuminating my direction, I will have the courage to go on, and I will ...... it."
Then, with a flash of his silver spear, he urged the night lion horse to speed up and gallop towards the enemy camp.
The 8,000 iron cavalry behind them accelerated the pace of the march in an orderly manner.
After a long journey, the army of the 170,000 Moon Clan was attacked by Wei Xiao last night after a long journey, and it was unprepared by Wei Xiao last night, and it was only at dawn that it was time to rest, and the entire army was sleepy and tired, even Murong Chui did not expect Wei Xiao to repeat his old tricks, and it was exactly the same night attack.
This time, the soldiers of the Moon Clan were even more tired, and they were rushed in by the Tongguan Iron Cavalry, and after a desperate fight, this time nearly 20,000 people were injured, and many people were still tired when they were stabbed in the chest by the gun.
Murong Chui didn't expect Wei Xiao to be so seriously injured, so he didn't give himself a chance to rest and went out to fight with the injury. The commander is still like this, and his subordinates naturally fight bravely to be the first, bravely kill the enemy, and fight bloodily, this time, the number of enemy troops killed has more than doubled compared to last night.
Wei Xiao led the Tongguan Iron Cavalry, breaking through the encirclement of the Moon Clan soldiers several times, seven in and seven out, no matter how Murong Chui formed a formation, it was useless, the formation could be broken out by Wei Xiao's eight thousand iron cavalry, until the formation was disrupted and could not form a formation.
More than 100,000 people were trapped in thousands of people, and this "Tongguan Iron Cavalry" was almost to the extent of making the enemy army fearful.
Murong Chui is also a hero of the world, this time inspired the infinite battle intent in his heart, and suddenly called his subordinates to take out his iron gall bow, took out an oolong iron spine arrow from the quiver, opened the bow under the flagpole, and shot an arrow towards Wei Xiao who was a few zhang away!
His bow is made of black stones, the horns of the ox, the end of the horns, and the glue of the fish, weighing several stones, and it takes five stones to open the bow, and an arrow is sent out, the speed is so fast, the power is so great, it is like a black lightning, breaking through the heavy darkness, and shooting towards Wei Xiao!
He knew very well that if he didn't kill Wei Xiao, no one would be able to break this Tongguan Iron Horse!
And he also knows that his unique "iron courage archery" can kill Wei Xiao with one blow!
The general draws the bow, the tiger is afraid of the wolf cold, the wind is thundering, and the big moon is iron!
The handsome flag flew fiercely over his head, just a move, faster than a blink of an eye, and the arrow was already imminent for Wei Xiao!
Even at night, his accuracy will not be the same!
The night lion horse under Wei Xiao's seat has already felt the threat, and the person stands up!
A figure pounced in the air and blocked Wei Xiao!
That arrow, with a "pounce", shot into the man's vest, and the sound of the iron arrow piercing the flesh sounded, and the blood splashed everywhere!
The front hooves of the lion horse fell down in the night, and Wei Xiao stretched out his arms and took the man down-
It was an ordinary sergeant with an extremely ordinary face.
Wei Xiao didn't even remember that there was such a person in his army of tens of thousands.
"Will ...... General!" The sergeant lay in Wei Xiao's arms, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, although his life was about to pass away, his face was glorious and content, and the dying man's face gave a strange light: "Can you block this for the general...... I feel so honored by this arrow...... The general took the lead and suffered the most ...... injuries The heaviest, I followed twice...... The general goes to war and dies...... No regrets!"
Then he tilted his head and died in Wei Xiao's arms, on horseback.
Wei Xiao closed her eyes and tried her best to hold back the hot tears at the corners of her eyes.
The entire earth fell silent, and at this moment, even the army of the Moon Clan, which was tens of thousands, remained silent.
I don't know who was the first to shout: "Long live General Wei!" We are willing to follow General Wei to the death!"
The entire 8,000 cavalry immediately became a sensation, and the soldiers raised their arms and shouted: "Long live General Wei!"
"Long live General Wei! We are willing to follow General Wei to the death!"
On every bleeding and wounded face is a resolute and unyielding face.
The shouts resounded throughout the land, as if even the darkness had been dispelled, and a glimmer of light appeared in the sky.
It was as if even the soldiers inside the city gate had heard it, and more and more soldiers were climbing the city gate to watch.
The yellow "hanging" character handsome flag fluttered quietly.
Under the banner, the adjutant general stepped forward and said in a low voice: "General Murong, do you want to launch an attack at this moment, and kill them by surprise?"
Murong Chui waved his hand: "No! This kind of morale can't be killed no matter how many people we kill!"
He looked at Wei Xiao, and the eyes of the battle-hardened generals showed a thoughtful look: "I'm afraid that with such a general, our siege battle will become more and more difficult!"
