Chapter 453: Siege (3)

In a fit of rage, Yang Yan gave a massacre order to the remnants of most of the Turkic warriors, and the three armies pressed together.

The two armies hedged against each other, and the men and horses wrapped in iron armor collided together like chariots, setting off waves of blood. Screams erupted in the battlefield, horses neighed and fell, one by one the Turkic cavalry was picked and killed by the lance, and the neat cavalry of the Turkic warriors was immediately in chaos, and before the Turks could rectify it a little, the Qi army over there still blew the final horn of charge, and a large number of armor soldiers came towards the Turks!

"The governor has an order, and no prisoners will be kept!"

Because the Chinese army and the rear army had all been put into the battlefield, Yang Yan ordered his personal troops to take the initiative to attack, to defeat the last bit of morale of the Turks again before the Turks had taken a breath...... After sensing the plot of the Qi people, he immediately ordered the army to shrink and dismount, and formed an infantry formation against the cavalry after rejecting the horses.

In the first row, the warriors who looked like herdsmen held simple spears with poles and rods, and pierced out the horses, and the whole camp instantly resembled a hedgehog with a thorn; The second, third, fourth, and fifth platoons were almost all Turkic archers, and the Turks were good at shooting, and they could fiddle with heavy long bows on horses, and concentrate firepower, which could weaken the impact of the cavalry to the greatest extent.

Due to the desperate resistance of these Turks, the Qi army stormed this camp for more than half an hour and failed to take it, until a sergeant pushed the bed crossbow to break the stalemate. The iron cones shot from the bed crossbow could tear apart the Turkic defensive formations like tearing paper, and the densely packed Turkic warriors fell in pieces, blood and flesh splattered.

However, at this extraordinary moment, the Turks also realized that if this line of defense really collapsed, no one could survive. Even if the bed crossbow is in front of you, you can't take a step back, you can only stubbornly continue to organize the defense line. General Qi took advantage of this vacancy, loudly clamored, asked the cavalry to step forward, the obstructive horse to move away, more than a dozen horsemen dragged the hemp rope up, the rejection horse was trapped, tied to the horse's neck, and then turned around and ran, the Turks did not have time to react, the horse and the fence in the front were pulled clean.

The Turks who lost their cover and hid behind the fence changed their expressions drastically, and now they really have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground, so they can only be reduced to lambs to the slaughter!

Qi Jun naturally would not be polite, and the first time he rushed into the chaotic crowd with a shield and a knife, he slashed with a knife and slashed, and ploughed a bloody road...... A small number of Turkic cavalry patrolling around intended to come to the rescue, but when they saw such a terrifying scene, they didn't dare to step forward, and could only watch as the golden wolf cavalry of the Chinese army in the tree was cut down, and then they fled for their lives.

"โ€”Newspaper! The cavalry led by General Han was surrounded by remnants of the Turks on the way to pursue the Turks, suffered heavy casualties, and was killed and dispersed by General Wei's troops. Several generals asked the governor for advice on whether they wanted to continue the pursuit. โ€

"Report! The right flank of our army is short of manpower, the enemy army uses the numerical advantage to repeatedly attack the position of our army, the situation is critical, and if we do not send more troops and horses, I am afraid that the enemy army will rout, please send troops to support! โ€

"Report! When Shogun Oga pursued the remnants of the enemy, he encountered stubborn resistance from the remnants of the Turkic enemy, and I am afraid that he would not be able to defeat the enemy quickly in a short time......"

Meteors galloped back and forth, bringing Yang Yan the latest battle situation, more than 10,000 people scattered across the vast grassland, and what they could do was extremely limited. Not to mention that there are thousands of Turks in front of you, even if there are thousands of pigs standing in front of you, it is enough for the Qi army to catch it for a while. After venting his emotions, Yang Yan also calmed down, realizing that it was not appropriate to divide his troops to chase after him now, so he said with a dark face:

"No need to chase any further, tell them not to pursue killing too much, we just need to crush the enemy troops in front of us and make them all retreat!"

He paused for a moment, then said:

"The Turks are so orderly from fighting to withdrawing, I'm afraid that they have been arranged a long time ago, and they have thought of all the ways to retreat, and it will only be in vain to chase after them...... Pick a few random troops and horses, send someone to follow quietly, and see where they are going. As for these captives, see if there are any big fish in them, and if they don't, they will all be slashed and killed! โ€

"Obey!"

After the war, the meadows were scorched and black, weapons were scattered, and corpses were piled up.

Yang Yan originally wanted to kill several of the scouts in one go, but considering that without these scouts, the army would be like a blind man without eyes, and he couldn't figure out the enemy's location at all. So he ordered each of them to be whipped twenty lashes, and let them drag their whip-scarred bodies and continue to spy on the enemy. It's the most fortunate thing to run behind enemy lines for a long time, and I don't know how many people will be alive next time we meet?

Yang Yan was not in the mood to think about these life and death partings at all now, and he said to everyone in a heavy tone: "We have been tricked...... Daxi Changru seems to have attacked the nest of the Turks, and the most fatal thing is that Ashina actually got the news one step ahead of us, and he was afraid that we would entangle him, so he set up a bureau and quietly left here with the main force. โ€

"And before that, I didn't even get any news...... "Yang Yan's brows furrowed slowly, "I don't think it's a good sign." If you chase down, the weather may change dramatically, one is not careful, our army will be cut off on the Monan grassland, but if you don't pursue, Daxi Changru's side has now become a lone army, they run the farthest, the supply line is the longest, there are no reinforcements, and there are many auspicious ...... You say, 'Should we go after it?' โ€

This question is enough to make everyone present want to break their heads.

Yang Yan has long made it clear that the goal is to work hard to do things, make the noise as loud as possible, attract all the main forces of the picture, and let Da Xi Changru complete a beautiful backstab. But now things are done, and the fish is also hooked, but at the critical moment when it is about to be caught, the fish realizes that something is wrong, unhooks and runs away, leaving a few small shrimps.

Who knows the grievances that have fallen short?

A wave of disappointment and loss flowed out of Yang Yan's heart, gradually extending to his limbs, making him feel tired and pressed down like a mountain. This is not only the physical exhaustion of running for months, but also the psychological frustration and depression exhausted, sometimes he can't help but think: Is he going to die? How did you become more and more indecisive?

This feeling was also felt when he was captured by Lou Rui, and he will never forget the humiliation and shame that day brought him!

So after being silent for a long time, Yang Yan said:

"Those who are willing to pursue with the old man stand on the left, and those who want to go back to Yanzhou stand on the right!"
