Chapter 399: Slaughtered
No matter how well trained the Harrier Eagle is, it is only a brute, it can't speak, it can only point out the location of the enemy army, and it can't tell you what they are doing.
An adjutant pointed forward, "General, they seem to be cooking." ”
Looking closely, there was indeed curling smoke rising, and the general softened his face, "It turned out that I was eating, as long as I didn't find our ambush." ”
"General." Another lieutenant said, "Why don't we go over and sneak attack?" If they are delayed, the soldiers behind the other side will gather with them, and they will be in trouble, and they will be surrounded.
Now Li Xingchen only has 5,000 vanguard troops around him, so there is nothing to fear. We have 10,000 brave warriors, not to mention that the grassland is our world. ”
The general laughed and raised his scimitar in his hand, "Yes, this general thinks so too." ”
"Warriors, listen to the order and kill all the Wei dogs who invaded the country."
"Kill! Kill! "The 10,000 Iron Wolf Army followed the example of a general, holding high their scimitars, and the mountains roared with a tsunami.
After shouting, he stepped on the war horse, walked out of the hideout, and galloped towards Li Xingchen's base.
For a time, the horse's hooves trampled, shaking the earth, rolling dust, and confusing the sky.
On the mountain!
The military department is still old, full of spring, imagining what he should do after becoming a pouncer.
But as the minutes passed, so did his worries.
"Your Majesty, could it be a mistake of judgment? What if there are no Turks in front of you, or if the Turks don't come to raid? ”
This is about his future promotion, and he is anxious, and he is desperate for the Turks to come.
"Why do you have so many questions?" Li Xingchen squinted, his face was calm, and he suddenly frowned and looked high into the sky, "The harrier eagle is here again, eat quickly, it's too late if you don't eat again." ”
The military department Shangshu also looked up and found Yao Ying hovering in the sky, his heart was relieved, and he almost cried with joy.
"Your Majesty, the old minister will shoot this beast down and eat it."
Li Xingchen shook his head, "Save some strength, the Harrier Eagle is extremely cautious, few people can shoot it."
Except in the face of people it trusts, it will always hover at high altitude and will not reduce its altitude at all.
If you want to look at the sky and shoot down the small black dot, it is almost impossible, you can't see clearly without staring carefully, and you still want to shoot? ”
The military department Shangshu smiled, grabbed the freshly cooked fatty meat, and ate it in a big gulp.
Li Xingchen looked at it with a wave of disgust, the old guy, he usually didn't find out that he had this side in the court, this time he brought him to the border, I don't know if it's right or wrong, I learned to swear and pat on the back, it's quite slippery...
I don't know if my nature is like this, I have been suppressed for a long time in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty before I release my nature, or I have learned...
It wasn't long before a black head appeared on the grass plane in the distance.
Immediately afterwards, a large amount of dust slowly filled over, and the rumbling sound was getting closer and closer, and at the same time, there were bursts of shouts and killings, faintly heard.
"Shield ready!" Li Xingchen ordered in a deep voice.
The next moment, Wei Jun, who was still eating, threw away the food, picked up the shield, and did a good job of protection.
The entire front section of the hillside suddenly became a copper wall and an iron arm.
The military department Shangshu shouted, "Archer, prepare!" ”
The archer, dressed in battle armor, quickly grabbed the guy, entered the passage left by the shieldman, crouched down, and drew his bow to prepare for battle.
The Iron Cavalry Wolf Army came quickly, from the appearance to the hillside where Li Xingchen was, it was only a matter of an instant.
Just seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but be stunned, and urgently stopped the horse, the war horse neighed loudly, and the originally neat formation became messy.
The Iron Cavalry Wolf Army thought that Wei Jun was cooking on a fire, so he wanted to kill the other party by surprise, but this was the result?
The opponent not only occupied the powerful terrain, but also defended the hill with a shield into an impregnable wall, and the archers were ready, if they rushed forward, they would be a target for others and sent to death.
Fortunately, the steppe erlang had superb riding skills and urgently reined in his horse a hundred meters away from the vanguard army.
All the Iron Wolf Army looked at the Turkic generals, as if asking about the current situation, whether to annihilate the other side, and how to fight.
The Turkic general's face sank like water, and he didn't know which link went wrong, was the other party naturally alert, or was there a traitor who informed him in advance?
Now a strong attack, even if it is captured, it will hurt the enemy by 1,000 and lose 800.
If you don't attack, you won't be able to swallow this breath, let alone miss this opportunity, and if you want to kill the Great Wei Emperor again, it will be difficult to climb to the sky.
The deputy general sighed, "General, retreat!" ”
The general looked unwilling, and he couldn't wait to rush up and break Li Xingchen and the 5,000 vanguard army into pieces.
But he knew that the deputy general was right, the hill occupied by the other side was easy to defend and difficult to attack, although he had 10,000 iron cavalry wolf troops, all elites, but a hard attack, first, to delay the time, and secondly, to delay, the rest of the Wei army could hardly guarantee that they would not come from other places.
At that time, 50,000 horses surrounded them, and not a single one of them could go.
Seeing that the general did not give the order for a long time, an iron wolf army beside him said angrily: "General, rush, we are all good sons, and the Han people are two-legged sheep." The legend about Li Xingchen is just a rumor.
The Turpan people can't beat them, but the grassland is our world, as long as we break through the shield, we will slaughter them. ”
The deputy general said calmly: "General, the surprise attack failed, the other party is obviously prepared, I'm afraid that 50,000 horses have already arrived here, just ambushed around, deliberately trying to attract us."
Even if it doesn't, what about forcing a break through their defenses now? How much does the Iron Cavalry Wolf Army lose? Have you counted? ”
Each has its own reason, retreating without firing an arrow, the general is really unwilling, waved his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Send out a team to test it." ”
"Yes." The Iron Cavalry who had just spoken whistled. In an instant, nine Iron Cavalry Wolf Army followed him and rushed towards the hillside. However, it is not a stupid straight line impact, but with superb riding skills, wandering and snakewalking.
There are only ten people, but they also show the momentum of thousands of troops.
On the mountain, the vanguard stared at the ten people, calculating the range.
To tell the truth, after coming to the border from the capital, although their vanguard took the lead and made the most meritorious contributions, they had hardly experienced a major battle, so they were excited about the surprise attack of the 10,000 Iron Wolf Army.
With Li Xingchen here, it is their best time.
But seeing those ten people swimming like spirit snakes, it is not difficult to see that they are the elite of the elite. Some timid soldiers, hands clenching bows and arrows, were covered with sweat.
Finally, the enemy entered the firing range, and the archers in the front row let go, and hundreds of sharp arrows were like a torrential rain, attacking ten people.
When the arrows were about to shoot ten people into a sieve, they twisted their horses' heads, and all the arrows fell to the ground.
In the next moment, the ten iron cavalry wolf soldiers took off the longbow on their backs, let go of the hand that controlled the reins, controlled the war horse with only their legs, and bent their bows and arrows to shoot at the vanguard.
The shield-bearers raised their shields in unison to protect the archers.
