Chapter 17 The Rescue of the Driver

Retreat, in fact, is much more difficult in war than attacking. As long as we start to retreat, whether it is a general, a captain, or an ordinary soldier, it is inevitable that the hearts of ordinary soldiers will rise, are we defeated?

Second, all kinds of weapons, grain and grass are carried backwards, and they are not lost at critical moments. Do not lose, travel slowly, easy to be caught up by enemy troops. If you lose it, how to lose it. How much to lose?

Lost grain and grass, lost a lot. If you don't walk for a few days, you will be hungry and your physical strength will plummet. If you lose less, it won't have much effect, and it's still burdensome.

This is especially true of armored weapons, you must know that there are heavy cavalry infantry in the middle protection army. Their armor spears are not light. If you don't lose it, the burden is serious, it affects the speed of travel, and if you lose it, how to deal with the enemy in time? Without these heavyweight weapons, the impact on combat effectiveness. That's not a star.

Of course, Xiao Yi would not think so much about it at this time. The construction of the Zhonghu Army cost him a lot of money, and he was reluctant to lose these treasures, although he had money, but it did not affect his stinginess.

Therefore, after a night's action, he still did not see Yang County, which was a distance of dozens of miles because he had to transport many honor guards and living utensils. The pace of travel was extremely slow, and there were many injured and sick women accompanying them this time. According to Hua Ming's estimates, it may have traveled half the distance.

Your Highness, why don't we ride to Yangjun first? Your safety is at stake.

Hua Ming opened his mouth and asked, the mission of the Dragon Guard Army is to protect Xiao Yi. As long as Xiao Yi is well, his mission will be completed. It wouldn't take an hour or two to get back quickly, and he really didn't want to delay.

These many soldiers are the future of my criminal state, abandon them, how can you bear to let the widow feel guilty? Don't talk about it again.

Xiao Yi replied perfunctorily, but in his heart he secretly said, if he moved forward lightly, with many female dependents, wouldn't the honor guard care? If you look at it as if there are deserters, if you leave, won't these people immediately scatter as birds and beasts?

Be.

Hua Ming felt a little embarrassed in his heart, and suddenly looked at the smoke and dust floating in the west. Suddenly shouted,

Everyone stopped marching, and there was an enemy attack on the west. The pikemen, sword and shield men immediately took fifty steps forward, set up an iron turtle formation, and the archers formed a phalanx along the rear line, and released their arrows when the enemy killed the iron turtle. Iron Sword Army, Iron Cavalry Guards His Highness.

Hearing Hua Ming's military order, only the Iron Sword Army quickly assembled around. The others did not respond, but after he reminded them, many people saw the cavalry getting closer and closer to the west, and began to flee in all directions.

Major General, you are not high enough to command the whole army now, please let King Liang give the order immediately. In charge, our Iron Sword Army alone won't last long.

A captain of the Iron Sword Army advised, after all, he is a veteran in the army, and he is naturally well aware of the interests at this moment.

Good.

His Royal Highness King Liang, please give an order quickly. Let the army form a formation against the enemy, and it will be too late.

But at this moment, Xiao Yi was paralyzed on the frame in fright, his lips trembling uncontrollably, how could he have the strength to order loudly? With great difficulty, he endured the fear in the Lord's heart and asked:

General Hua, you just said that you led the elite to escort the widow back to the city lightly. Let's go back to the city first, the enemy army is menacing. I don't know if it's invincible.

Xiao Yi said this, but in his heart, he was thinking, is Huadingshan already defeated? Why is the Yan army's combat power so strong? You can't put on wings so quickly, right?

Your Highness, it is precisely because the situation is unclear at the moment that you can't move lightly. The Yan army's war cavalry is strong, and if we escape, we will all be captured. There is still a chance to survive in the fight for life.

Okay, General Hua. This is a talisman, now the middle guard, all the soldiers and horses in the state of Xingzhou listen to your orders. It's up to you to survive.

Xiao Yi finally handed over the talisman, but at this moment it sounded again:

Hwajeongsan has been defeated by me!

Yangjun City has been taken by us!

Surrender quickly.

Those who descend do not kill.

A series of rumors spread among the Central Protectors, as well as countless sharp arrows.

And Hua Ming's prestige is far from enough, a new general, even if he has a military talisman in hand, may not be able to command the Zhonghu army, which is already full of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. What's more, at this time, it is a defeated and fleeing army. It is even more combat-powerless, and the gathering power can be spoken.

With the Yan army on the opposite side attacking and releasing arrows wave after wave, only a small number of Dragon Guard Army and Iron Sword Army were still listening to Hua Ming's orders to meet the enemy.

At this time, the leading general of the Yan army that rushed to kill was He Chun. Although he is reckless and murderous, he is also a veteran of the battlefield.

Looking at the soldiers in front of him, who were only two or three thousand, he quickly saw it. Although this army lacks combat experience, it is all soldiers who have served Xiao Yi to the death. Much more difficult to deal with than other armies that are scattered in one blow.

As for how he saw Xiao Yi, it was naturally the frame and the gorgeous guard of honor and cover. This kind of conspicuous goal is to directly tell others that there is a big person sitting in this car. Come and catch it.

Shield, hold steady, do not shake. Fold tightly, don't leave so many gaps. God, the enemy cavalry is coming. Pikemen ready, hooked sickles ready, archers ready.

However, when the Yan cavalry who had been killed was only a dozen paces, they suddenly threw their spears, and suddenly there was a wail among the iron turtles and pikemen. Then, the cavalry of the Yan army immediately turned around and gathered.

A general in black armor came over with a heavy mace in both hands. Seeing his charging posture, Long Weijun suddenly felt a chill, and his hands were constantly trembling.

But the Iron Sword Army never wavered in the slightest.

Seeing the war situation like this, Hua Ming knew that the time had come to serve the country in a bloody war.

The Iron Sword Army charges with me!

And Hua Ming, holding the horse lance in his hand, rushed straight to the leading general. Hua Ming knew that the leader would have at least fifteen levels of strength. I rushed up like this and sent to death.

However, he is the son of the Hua family.

The length of the horse lance was extremely high, and He Chun didn't expect that at this time, there would be people who dared to charge at him. Immediately, he had to flip the wolf's tooth hammer up, block it in his chest, and then swing it out.

between the electric light and flint.

Because He Chun was stressed with one hand, and the impact of the war horse was not as good as Huaming's mount, the two suffered some losses. The war horses all looked up to the sky and neighed.

And the iron sword army that caught up with him turned over the long sword behind his back, slashed people up, and occupied horses down. Suddenly, due to He Chun's momentum, the level of the Iron Sword Army and the Iron Sword were above the Yan Army, and He Chun's army actually looked like it was defeated.

Fall back.

The steppe cavalry retreated easily, and the Iron Sword Army, although strong in battle, could not pursue. Yes, He Chun was able to stop the loss in time.

He retreated two or three miles.

Good boy, I didn't expect to see the world-famous Iron Sword Army here.

General, just after the first battle, our army lost more than 300 people.

It doesn't matter, this is the loss of manpower.

Report to the general, iron cavalry appeared in the rear, and our army suffered heavy losses.

What?

Retreat, fast.

This came to the rescue of the Moon Wolf Army led by Tu Hejin, originally he wanted to chase and kill, but he never thought that after the Yan Army was in chaos for a while, he would be able to release arrows backwards when he was fleeing for his life.

After dozens of horses, he also had to stop the pursuit. Come check out this friendly army.

The gorgeous Lu Gai also helped the gang to quickly find the location of Xiao Yi here.

Seeing the desperate rescue of this pair of young generals, Xiao Yi was immediately moved. hurriedly said that he would reward the two of them heavily for their military exploits.
