206 [Winning a Thousand Miles]
He didn't know that the clay pots that fell from the sky were filled with water - Lu Shen really wanted to entertain Jing Jun with a modified version of Greek fire, but after all, there were no inexhaustible raw materials, and the raw materials that Ran Xuanzhi used all his connections to find were only enough for the Yan Army vanguard to taste the taste of barbecue.
Even so, the invincible Xia Shan army had become a frightened bird, as if this canyon was full of deadly traps, and no one had to check whether the clay pots had been splashed with water or fire oil after they had exploded.
For the Xia Shan Army, who are known for their fierceness and bravery, they have never fought such a humiliating battle in their lives, and they just want to stay away from here as soon as possible at this moment.
The remnants of the Xia Shan Army retreated to the entrance of the canyon in a hurry, while the Seven Star Army beat the water dogs under the command of Lu Shen, chasing the ass of the Xia Mountain Army to expand the results of the battle crazily.
One after another Jinglian warriors fell, the tail of the Xia Shan Army and the forward of the Seven Star Army staggered, and the number of casualties continued to rise.
On the mountain walls on both sides, the high-level deacons of the Seven Star Gang led by Lin Jie jumped down one after another and joined the pursuit of the Xia Shan Army.
It wasn't that he didn't know the consequences of such a retreat, but now even if he wanted his subordinates to stop, it was something he couldn't do.
The so-called defeat is like a mountain, and no one can turn the tide against the sky.
At present, the only hope for the servant is that after withdrawing from the canyon, the Yan army outside will be able to respond well, and the Seven Star Army should not dare to chase it out.
However, he overestimated the morale of the Yan army.
After experiencing the ambush of the left army, the counter-killing of the right army, and the night attack of the rear army, the overall morale of the Yan army has been depressed to a rather terrifying level, and the Yan army is not unaware of this, but the Yan army is originally a servant army that fills the battle line in his eyes, even if it is dead, it doesn't matter - as long as they can eliminate the foreseen danger for the Xia Mountain Army and create a battlefield for the Xia Mountain Army to face each other.
After having already made too many mistakes, it is undoubtedly an extremely stupid idea for Fusan Sien to still pin his hopes on Yan Jun.
If the vanguard of the Yan army led by Du Min was still there, maybe they could still stabilize the morale of the army, but a fire in the canyon burned Du Min and the six hundred tiger ben to waste, so that the Yan army, whose morale was already at a low point, came to the brink of collapse.
If the Xia Shan army can successfully break through the canyon defense line today, it will not be difficult for the Yan army behind to do some things to clean up the battlefield and do piecemeal, and it is undoubtedly whimsical to expect them to turn the situation around.
Pushing the time forward a little, there was a continuous explosion sound from the depths of the canyon, and the Yan army outside the valley could even feel the earth trembling, and for a moment, most of the ordinary soldiers had a frightened look.
Xu Cun's face was gloomy, his eyes looked at Gu Nei coldly, his right hand was clenched unconsciously hard, and his nails almost entered the flesh.
The generals and commanders next to him looked at him in amazement, and someone couldn't help but say: "Chief, could it be that the Xiashan army has been defeated......
He stopped talking, subconsciously swallowing his saliva, and the faces of the others were also ugly.
Xu Cun was silent, and he was quickly calculating in his heart how he could protect the eight thousand Yan army around him if the Xia Mountain Army was really defeated.
At this moment, the messenger of Fusan Sien hurriedly arrived and conveyed to Xu Cun the order that the Xia Shan army was about to engage the enemy in the valley and let the Yan army enter the valley in batches to support.
The messenger didn't give Xu Cun a chance to refuse at all, and immediately turned around and hurried back to the canyon after finishing speaking, leaving a group of Yan army generals staring at Xu Cun with different expressions.
"Boss, this scene doesn't take you seriously!"
"That's it, at most, he is only at the same level as the chief manager, why is he so arrogant to the chief manager!"
"First the front army hid behind, let us charge in front, and now they are in danger, and they want us to come to the rescue, how can they be shameless to this extent!"
"Chief, the situation in the valley is unknown, and our army must not rush in easily."
"That's right, our army might as well retreat some now, in case the Jing army is defeated, lest they break up our army's formation."
"Please, Chief, give the order!"
The crowd around him was excited, Xu Cun's face was gloomy, in fact, he knew why these generals were suddenly so angry.
In short, these people already had the heart of war, and they didn't dare to take the slightest risk, if they weren't worried that they would be held accountable afterwards, they would even like to immediately abandon the Xia Shan army that went deep into the canyon and flee all the way south to the territory of Dongyang Road.
Xu Cun looked over one by one, only to see the faces with solemn expressions and pleading, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "Have you ever thought about what the consequences will be in the future if we abandon the Jing army and retreat at this time, even if we just don't save it?" ”
Everyone couldn't help but be silent when they heard this.
Xu Cun said quietly: "Now it seems that every step of our decision is expected by Lu Shen, and every action has been calculated to death by him, no wonder our army has suffered setbacks one after another since entering the mountain." Nanqi not only has famous generals like Xiao Wangzhi and Li Tianrun, but now there is a genius like Lu Shen who is young but uses soldiers like a god, no wonder some people are not optimistic about our battle against bandits this time. ”
The generals looked at him blankly, although there was indeed a big gap between the performance of the two army commanders, but General Manager Xu seemed to have something to say, and who did the "someone" in the last sentence refer to?
Xu Cun didn't explain, and continued: "I understand your thoughts, and I won't blame you for having such thoughts, but I want you to understand that from the beginning of leaving Fengqiu City and going north, our army and Jingjun have shared weal and woe, and if they are all wiped out in the mountains, we will not end well even if we can go back." ”
"Alas, Chief, it's not that we're afraid of death, it's really that the morale of the soldiers below is low."
A military general said with a complicated expression.
Xu Cun bowed slightly, and said lightly: "Even so, you can't leave the Jing army, pass the order, and the three thousand people in the front are ready to enter the valley to support." ”
The generals could only receive orders, but before they could leave, the sound of majestic and neat horses' hooves suddenly came from the southeast.
Several scouts rode their horses and galloped over, and said in a hurry: "Chief, the enemy cavalry is coming, and there are a lot of them!" ”
There was a sudden commotion in the Yan army's array.
Xu Cun frowned, raised his eyes, and saw a cavalry rushing towards the southeast, a tall horse in the process of galloping showing a streamlined beauty, the knights on the horse were all holding long weapons, although they did not deliberately shout, but they showed a momentum as majestic as a mountain.
In the bright sunshine, Lin Xi was holding a horse chopping knife in one hand, his body was slightly on the back of the horse, and his cold eyes locked on the handsome flag of the Yan Army in the distance.
Wei Chigui rode his horse to her right, and the middle-aged man used his weapon for the first time, which was a horse lance about two feet long.
Behind them, five hundred horsemen galloped wildly, and a murderous spirit rose into the sky.
This cavalry had just appeared on the edge of the battlefield, and the wolf smoke was rising in the rear, and it seemed that there were countless fresh troops coming from behind.
Even though Xu Cun immediately ordered the troops on one side to turn to the formation to meet the enemy, a panic still spread among the Yan army.
The cavalry, which had been recuperating for many days, was like a tiger descending from the mountain, and under the leadership of Lin Xi and Wei Chigui, they rushed towards the northeast corner of the Yan army.
When the two armies met, it was like rolling soup and pouring snow, and the Yan army fell in an instant.
At the same time, the shouts and killings in the canyon came from far and near, and the Yan army turned their heads to look, only to see the self-proclaimed invincible Xia Shan Army escaping from the valley like a lost dog, and the appearance of throwing away his armor made Yan Jun's heart instantly cold.
Seeing this, Lin Xi shouted: "Kill!" ”
The five hundred masters are like dragons, and they are almost invincible to those who resist the Yan army.
Under the high-pressure situation for more than ten consecutive days, the Yan army was already unstable, and at this moment, seeing the defeat of the Xia Shan army, even someone shouted with a crying voice: "Escape!" ”
Xu Cun shouted orders repeatedly, but after those two words appeared, more and more similar voices appeared, and the generals couldn't stop them at all, and the Yan army fled for their lives like a mass of scattered sand, and the formation immediately collapsed!
Xia Shanjun, who escaped from the canyon, looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, and his eyes couldn't help but straighten.
The Yan army has become a mess, and was slaughtered by the cavalry of the Seven Star Army like chopping melons and vegetables, but at this moment, seeing the dust flying on the battlefield, the Yan soldiers cried and shouted that their mother fled wildly, and they only hated that their father and mother had two legs.
When the remnants of the Xiashan Army all withdrew from the canyon, there was no one who could reverse the defeat.
The Seven Star Army followed, this time not only the three thousand soldiers trained by Lu Shen, but also the elders of the gang led by Lin Jie, and even all the old and young masters living in the mountains, but everyone who had learned a few kung fu skills, or had a lot of strength, all held all kinds of strange weapons, followed the Seven Star Army out of the canyon, and rushed towards the Xia Mountain Army and the Yan Army.
It is like the waves of a big river, and the waves roll for nine days.
On the tide, Lu Shen took the lead, personally leading hundreds of sharp soldiers to bite the banner of the Xiashan Army.
In another area of the battlefield, Lin Xi had already separated from Wei Chigui, and the two of them each led half of the cavalry, constantly strangling the already frightened Yan army.
After slashing a Yan general to death, she noticed the situation in the north and turned her horse's head and led her brothers towards it.
He was still thinking of relying on the Yan army to stabilize the formation, but he didn't expect to see that the Yan army had broken up first, how could he not understand that the general trend had gone, Wu Leha and Sang Mai and others shouted next to him: "General, I will escort you away!" ”
Before the words fell, the sound of horses' hooves in front was like thunder.
Lin Xi led the army to rush to the scene!
Lu Shen in the rear also led his troops to kill, and the two groups of elites surrounded the more than 100 Jing troops who protected the servant San's grace in the middle.
He watched as his entourage dwindled, until Ureha and Sanmai were killed, and he let out a wolf-like cry of rage and pain.
He looked at the young man and woman in front of him with red eyes.
"Ahhh
He roared and rushed forward, swinging his sword at Lu Shen, who had a cold look in his eyes.
"Bang!"
Lu Shen raised his knife to block, and the weapons struck each other with a piercing sound, and at the same moment, Lin Xi twisted forward, and waved the horse chopping knife that had accompanied her for many years and traveled with her all over the north and south of the river, like a whirlwind rolling up countless flying dust.
The last style of the Lin family's knife technique, the wind and clouds!
A head rises into the sky.
The girl's knife used all the internal strength of her body, her slightly pale face was covered with blood and sweat, and after the blade landed, her body staggered, and the next moment she was supported by Lu Shen to her waist.
The two looked at each other, not a word, but it was worth a thousand words.
As if to echo their tacit understanding, the victory and defeat on the battlefield were divided, and the remnants of the Yanjing coalition army fled towards the south.
The Seven Star Army took advantage of the Huanghuang victory and pursued all the way to the south, winning countless victories.
The cheers are undulating, and the mountains and rivers between heaven and earth are picturesque!
