Chapter 989, will be counted
Yan Ji didn't expect her eldest brother to say this, and she couldn't help but be stunned. Yang Peng held Yan Ji's slender hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry too much. There is a road before the car reaches the mountain! Yan Ji couldn't help but sigh, and said with some complaints: "At this time, the husband can still be so relaxed!" Yang Peng pulled Yan Ji to sit down on the mound, looked at the enemy's camp in the distance, and said with a smile: "If you can't think of a way to solve it, then don't solve it." Yan Ji looked at Yang Peng puzzled.
Li Xu rushed up, hugged his fists and said, "Big brother, three thousand elite cavalry and one thousand infantry troops have been prepared." Yang Peng nodded and stood up. Yan Ji hurriedly stood up and asked urgently, "Is the eldest brother going to raid the enemy camp?" Chen Xiao nodded. Yan Ji immediately objected: "No! That Lambert and Frank had suffered more than once from our night raids, and they were both famous Byzantine generals, how could they still be fooled! They must be prepared, this time there will be more than one bad luck! ”
Yang Peng smiled: "Don't worry, I have my own plans." Then he ran down with Li Xu. Yan Ji looked at her lover's back, and she was extremely worried.
Soon after, Yang Peng personally led a thousand infantry troops to quietly enter the enemy camp. At the same time, countless enemy troops appeared on the front, left and right, and as far as the eye could see, I saw a figure of longing, and the Byzantine army was really prepared!
Frank looked at the Ming army, which had been surrounded on three sides outside the camp, laughed, and scolded: "If you still come to this set, you don't know whether you are alive or dead!" ”
At this moment, the Ming army, which had almost been surrounded on three sides, suddenly turned around and fled along the way they came. Lambert hurriedly ordered: "Chase quickly, don't let them run!" This time we will completely annihilate this Ming army! "The sound of war drums and trumpets began to sound, and the Byzantine armies roared and chased after them.
The Ming army fled straight towards Bal City, but Bal City was eight or nine miles away from here, and it couldn't run at all for a while and a half, while the enemy's infantry was getting closer and closer!
Frank himself led a large army in pursuit, and it was about to catch up with the enemy. All the soldiers below Frank were excited, and they just wanted to catch up with the enemy and kill them.
Suddenly, there was a loud rumbling sound nearby, like a sudden thunderclap. Frank and the others couldn't help but turn their heads to look. It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, you are startled when you see it, and you can see the yellow sand in the darkness, as if the infinite cavalry is surging like the tide! Before the Byzantine army could react, the cavalry that seemed to suddenly turn out of the ground collided fiercely, only to see the horse's hooves trampling the sword flashing, and the war horse swept through the middle of the Byzantine army like a wolf and a tiger, the Byzantine cavalry turned on their backs, and the Byzantine infantry army also fell one after another, and the screams resounded one after another! The Byzantine army was suddenly attacked by such a fierce attack, and in the dark night, I only saw the yellow sand and the figures longing, and I couldn't help but tremble!
At this moment, Yang Peng, who had originally led the army to flee for his life, suddenly turned around and killed, thousands of soldiers, thousands of tigers, slammed into the enemy army, slashed with knives and axes, and bravely moved forward! Yang Peng opened a bloody path and rushed straight to Frank, stabbing straight at him! Frank was startled and swung his sword to block. Yang Peng didn't wait for the two sides to collide, and suddenly changed his moves, and the horse lance in his hand turned into a straight stab, hitting Frank's arm, Frank felt his wrists about to break, and couldn't help but let go of the big sword in his hand with a scream. Yang Peng followed the movement of both hands and stabbed Frank's chest straight away, seeing that Frank was about to die under the horse lance! After all, Frank is a veteran of the battlefield, and his strength is extraordinary, and when this is the last moment, he struggles to dodge sideways! Between the lightning and flint, Yang Peng's horse lance had already been stabbed, and with a pop, the horse lance pierced the armor on Frank's shoulder and stabbed into his body! Frank was terrified and hurried to run away! Yang Peng pursued all the way, but was hindered by the enemy officers and soldiers who kept rushing up to intercept him, and soon lost his trace of Frank.
The Ming infantry cavalry rushed and killed, the flesh and blood of the soldiers flew sideways, the roar was like thunder, and the offensive was like a tide, and the Byzantine army was terrified and retreated!
Seeing that the Byzantine army was about to collapse, at this moment, Marshal Lambert personally led a large army to join the battlefield and fiercely counterattack the Ming army. The Ming army fought for a while, and seeing that there was no chance to take advantage of it, they immediately turned their horses and retreated to Bal City. On the Byzantine side, they were worried that they would be ambushed by the other side again, so they did not dare to pursue and collected their troops and returned to the camp.
In the big tent, the Byzantines were silent, and they all looked very depressed. It's no wonder that the original design was to ambush the enemy army, but I didn't expect to fall into the opponent's trick, tens of thousands of front teams were killed in pieces, if it wasn't for the critical time, Marshal Lambert led the army to catch up and counterattack, but I was afraid that the result of the front army would be even more miserable.
The figure at the door swayed, and everyone couldn't help but look up, only to see Frank, who was shirtless and hanging his arms with a thick bandage, entered. Everyone looked at him and didn't know what to say.
Frank walked under the tent, saluted Lambert, and sat down on his left hand.
Lambert asked Frank, "Frank, is it okay with your injury?" Frank shook his head, "It's nothing, you can't die." Then he couldn't help but sigh: "That Ming Emperor's cunning is really beyond imagination!" Who would have thought that he would lay such an ingenious trap! He saw through our actions! ”
Everyone couldn't help frowning and feeling depressed. Enzo exclaimed, "No matter how cunning he is, it's useless!" Now trapped in the city of Baal, sooner or later you will die! ”
Lambert frowned and pondered: "We are completely inferior to the fighting spirit of the Ming Emperor, and we can't fight with him anymore." He raised his head and glanced at the generals, and said, "From now on, we will hold the camp and trap him, and wait for His Majesty to come before acting at His Majesty's will!" The generals felt that this was the only way to do it.
Yang Peng and Li Xu led thousands of men back to Baal City. Yan Ji hurriedly caught Yang Peng and said excitedly: "Fujun actually defeated the enemy again!" There is only one husband in the world who can do this! Yang Peng turned over and dismounted, smiled, and said: "Although it has frustrated the enemy's spirit, it is far from defeating the enemy!" Then he instructed Li Xu: "All armies take turns to rest and recuperate, don't be careless." Li Xu promised and ran down.
Yang Peng walked into the big tent and sat down. Yan Ji hurriedly made tea for Yang Peng. Yang Peng took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and said: "Although we have won two tactical victories so far, the overall situation has not changed in the slightest. If we want to truly and completely reverse the current situation, we must have a strategic move in our favor. Yan Ji asked, "Is the husband talking about reinforcements?" Yang Peng nodded and thought: "What we have to do now is not to defeat the enemy in front of us, it is almost impossible in the current situation. What we need to do now is to delay as much time as possible. As long as we delay until reinforcements arrive, victory will be ours. ”
Yan Ji felt that her lover was reasonable, so she couldn't help but nodded, and then said worriedly: "But it's only difficult to hold on until the reinforcements arrive!" Husband, I have already counted the grain and grass, and the grain and grass in our hands is only enough for the army for five days, and after five days, even if the enemy army does not attack, we ourselves will die of hunger. In addition, drinking water is even more stressful, only enough for three days. ”
Yang Peng pondered: "The grain can be compressed and halved, so that it can support ten days." Drinking water is a real headache. I have already sent Huyan Chijin to take people to try to dig a well to get water, I don't know what the situation is? ”
As he was talking, Huyan Chijin opened the curtain and walked in, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I'm back." ”
Yang Peng smiled and said to Yan Ji: "This really means that Cao Cao Cao has arrived." Then he saw Huyan Chijin's depressed face, and immediately guessed the result and asked, "Did you not hit the water?" ”
Huyan Chijin couldn't help but scold: "There's a fart!" In all directions, I ordered people to dig several wells, but apart from sand and sand, I didn't even see the shadow of water! I don't see any water here! ”
Yang Peng frowned and said: "Dozens of miles north of here is the West Sea, and the terrain is relatively low, so it stands to reason that there should be groundwater." Then he said to Huyan Chijin: "You go and look for it." Find a place where the plants are growing, then dig down and dig deeper. Huyan Chijin clenched his fists and promised, and ran down.
Yan Ji asked worriedly, "Husband, if they still can't dig water in Huyan Chijin, what should they do?" ”
Yang Peng smiled: "Don't worry, I think God won't want to play with us!" Yan Ji heard her lover say this, and her worried heart couldn't help but calm down a little. In fact, don't look at Yang Peng's lightheartedness, in fact, Yang Peng is very anxious. It is not so easy to draw water from the desert, and if you can draw water casually, the people will not be forced to move by the desert. In this wind-eroded city of Baal, I am afraid that it is unlikely to produce water. A man can last a week without food, but if he has no water, he will die of thirst in three days. Judging from the current situation, Yang Peng's situation is really very sinister.
At this moment, Li Lang rushed in and reported: "Your Majesty, the scout is back." ”
"Called."
Li Lang answered and ran out of the big tent, and then, the scouts entered the big tent and bowed to Yang Peng; "Meet Your Majesty! Not long ago, his subordinates found that a large army of soldiers and horses in the east was heading towards this side, so they hurried back to report to His Majesty. ”
Yang Peng said: "The brigade of soldiers and horses from the east. Then there is no need to ask, it must be the army led by the Byzantine Empress Cynthia. ”
A moment later, Yang Peng and the others climbed a high mound near the big tent and looked west. I saw a fire dragon winding from afar in the drowsy night, and it was naturally the army led by Cynthia.
Cynthia led a large army to the east of Baal and set up camp eight or nine miles east of the city of Baal, and then sent men with imperial orders to summon Lambert and Frank.
When Lambert and Frank received the Empress's summons, they did not dare to delay in the slightest, and hurried with the herald to Cynthia's tent to greet their Empress.
Cynthia couldn't help but be surprised when she saw Frank's injuries, and asked, "Is Frank injured?" ”
Frank didn't dare to hide it, and immediately said a brief account of tonight's battle, and then hung his head, waiting for Cynthia's punishment, and Lambert also looked like he was waiting for punishment.
Cynthia frowned slightly, and muttered: "I have long heard that the Ming Emperor is cunning, but now after listening to your narration, I know that he really deserves his reputation!" Then he said to Frank and Lambert: "Although you two have been frustrated, you have done your best, and you are not to blame for this." I won't punish you this time. The boulder that the two of them had been hanging in their hearts finally let go, and hurriedly thanked them.
Cynthia picked up a pigeon biography, raised it, and said, "You told you about the great battle when you first arrived in the pigeon biography not long ago. I was shocked, the Ming Emperor was really so brave that he actually killed me thirteen fierce generals in a row!? ”
Lambert said, "That's true. Alas! Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that the Ming Emperor is really an awe-inspiring invincible warrior, no wonder he is rumored to be the reincarnation of a demon dragon! I don't think anyone in the world can beat him! ”
Before Lambert's words fell, a rough and fierce voice said unpleasantly: "Your Excellency Marshal's words make me very angry! I don't believe that Emperor Ming is as powerful as you say! Lambert and Frank followed the prestige, and saw four fierce generals in heavy armor standing like iron towers on the side, with a fierce momentum like lions and tigers, and it was the one who stood in the second position who spoke just now. The two knew these four men, and the four of them were Buffon, Resandro, Antonio and David. These four people are the four famous generals of the Byzantine Empire, and they are also the four great generals of the royal army. Among them, Buffon, who has already appeared above, is the head of the four major generals of the pro-army, and is named the general of the bear and tiger, and is known as the first fierce general of Byzantium. And what he said just now is the second-ranked Resandro, and his temper is the hottest.
Lambert said to Raysandro: "I'm not lying, but the Ming Emperor is very powerful!" Although the four generals are the strongest generals in our Byzantine Empire, if they face the Ming Emperor, I am afraid that they can only end in defeat! The four of them have always been conceited, but now they heard Lambert say such words, how not to burst into a rage, Lei Sandro shouted: "What is the Ming Emperor, I will kill him tomorrow!" Buffon bowed to Cynthia and said, "Your Majesty, please let us fight tomorrow!" If we can't kill the Ming Emperor, please ask Your Majesty to kill us!" ”
Cynthia said: "I believe that the four generals can definitely defeat the Ming Emperor, and we will challenge it tomorrow." The four generals were overjoyed, and they all looked gearing up, as if they were impatient to find the Ming Emperor desperately. Cynthia glanced at Lambert reproachfully, and Lambert smiled and hung his head.
The next morning, the sky was just dawning, and the early morning breeze kicked up wisps of dust. Suddenly, a tide rose over the desert, and two Byzantine armies approached the city of Baal from the east and west.
Cynthia's army halted when it approached three hundred paces to the city of Baal. Immediately, the fierce general Raysandro carried a heavy battle axe, urged the majestic horse to gallop out of the military formation, came between the two sides, and shouted, and the huge sound spread in all directions like a tiger's roar. The Byzantine soldiers couldn't help but boil their blood and shouted one after another.
Yang Peng and the others stood on a high place and watched, Yang Peng turned his head and asked his generals: "Which of you dares to fight?" Meng Hu hugged his fists first and said: "The last general will go and behead that barbarian dog!" Yang Peng nodded. Meng Hu immediately ran down, stepped on the war horse and galloped out.
Seeing a sickly-looking enemy general galloping out with a long knife, Lei Sandro couldn't help but be surprised, pointed at him with a battle axe and asked loudly, "You are the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?" He said Byzantine language, where did Meng Hu understand, he thought it was not a good word, scolded loudly, and rushed forward with a long-handled long knife. Lei Sandro didn't understand the other party's words, but when the other party admitted it, seeing the other party rushing towards him with a long knife, he immediately became excited, urging the war horse to rush forward with a battle axe and screaming. The war drums of both sides rang out, and the shouts of the soldiers on both sides went straight to Xiaohan.
In the blink of an eye, the two met, one wielded an axe, the other swung a long knife, and slashed at each other fiercely! Between the lightning and flint, only a loud bang was heard, and the weapons collided in mid-air! Then the two sides staggered past, each ran not far away, and turned their horses to look at each other. Both of them were a little surprised in their hearts, they didn't expect the other party's strength to be so weak. Several fierce generals gathered around Cynthia also looked surprised, and Buffon couldn't help but say: "I really didn't expect that the Ming Emperor couldn't look good, but the force was so strong!" ”
Frank said angrily: "Who told you that this is the Ming Emperor?" ”
Buffon asked in surprise: "He is not the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?" ”
Frank said: "He is not the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. His name is Meng Hu, and he is a famous general in the Ming Army. Then he frowned, "I want several generals to die at his hands!" Don't look at him like a sick man, but the force is very strong! ”
Seeing that the opponent's force was extraordinary, Lei Sandro became even more excited, and immediately urged the war horse to rush forward again. Meng Hu was also very excited, seeing that the other party was urging the horse to rush over, he also urged the war horse to meet him. The two sides are fighting endlessly, killing inseparable, and killing thrilling! It's like two fierce tigers fighting viciously on the edge of a cliff, and it's like two dragons fighting to the death over the river and the sea! More than 20 rounds have passed in the blink of an eye, and the two sides are still evenly matched! At this time, the soldiers on both sides were already boiling with blood, shouting wave after wave, and the roar of war drums seemed to collapse the sky! However, while the soldiers were excited, they were also sweating for their own generals.
Naresandro suddenly turned his horse and rode towards his own army, as if he had fled in a weak heart. Meng Hu was killing sexually, seeing that the other party was running away, where could he let him go, he immediately urged the war horse to chase after him, and shouted loudly: "Where to run!" Leave me the dog's head! ”
Yang Peng, who was watching the battle, frowned, and hurriedly said to Li Xu: "Hurry up and pick up Meng Hu!" Li Xu promised, ran down, stepped on the war horse and galloped out.
At this moment, Meng Hu was about to catch up with Lei Sandro. Suddenly, Resandro reined in his horse suddenly, put the big axe across the saddle, pulled out the short-handled axe in the saddle bag, and threw it at Meng Hu, who was rushing up! Meng Hu didn't expect the other party to come to this trick at all, and when he was caught off guard, where did he have time to dodge, and he was hit in the chest by the short-handled axe, and Meng Hu screamed and fell off the horse!
Seeing that the blow was successful, Lei Sandro couldn't help but feel a burst of joy, and even wanted to step forward and cut off Meng Hu's head.
"Barbarian, Hugh is rampant, Li Xu is here!" The sound of roaring and hurried horses' hooves was heard. Resandro couldn't help but look up, only to see a handsome enemy general in silver armor rushing towards him. Immediately raised the tomahawk and prepared for battle. However, at this moment, I only heard a loud sound, as if I saw a black shadow flying into the sky. Before Resandro could react, he only felt that the black shadow had flown to his chest, and he hurriedly wanted to dodge in a panic, but in a hurry, he didn't have time, only heard a pop, and the wolf's tooth arrow was heavily nailed to Resandro's chest! Rexandro screamed and fell off his horse!
The Byzantine soldiers, who were excited, were shocked when they saw the situation suddenly reversed, and the fierce general Buffon hurriedly rushed out.
Li Xu saw another enemy rush out, and immediately bent his bow and aimed an arrow at Buffon's vital point, which was an arrow. The arrow went like the wind, and a black shadow flew over the distance between the two sides in an instant, and saw that Buffon was about to be shot off his horse! Just between the lightning and flint, I saw Buffon suddenly raise an iron shield, and almost at the same time, the whistling wolf's tooth arrow hit the iron shield heavily, and with a snap, the general actually shot into the iron shield!
Li Xu saw that the other party actually caught one of his arrows, and couldn't help frowning, and immediately the arrows continued to shoot at the other party, and Buffon was really not simple, waving an iron shield to catch all the powerful arrows shot by Hua Rong. Li Xu saw that the archery was ineffective, so he simply put down his bow and arrows, picked up the steel gun, and rode his horse straight forward; Buffon also hung his iron shield on the side of his saddle and raised his cross-sword and rushed fiercely. The two fierce generals, one like a wolf and the other like a tiger, galloped and charged, and they were about to fight!
In the blink of an eye, the two sides fought together, and the knives and guns were inseparable. At the same time, several cavalry rushed out of the armies on both sides and rescued the generals of all parties who fell to the ground and whose fate was unknown.
Li Xu and Buffon fought more than 20 times, and Li Xu gradually revealed his incompetence. But Buffon is becoming more and more courageous, and the cross sword in his hand tears the air and is mighty! One sword after another slashed at Li Xu, Li Xu shook his whole body with every move, and the opponent's strength was obviously far superior to him! Li Xu gritted his teeth and insisted, the situation is getting worse and worse! The war drums and shouts of the Byzantine army were earth-shattering!
The Ming army was very anxious, and Shi Ping said urgently: "I'll help Li Xu!" Yang Peng held down Shi Ping and said, "I'll go!" When he ran down, stepped on the black dragon, grabbed the iron horse lance and rushed out. At this time, Li Xu's situation was even more dangerous, and Yang Peng shouted loudly while galloping over: "Li Xu, retreat!" ”
After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
