Chapter 456: The brave wins
readx;
Jiang Xia and they chased all the way, and after chasing for about three miles, Jiang Xia began to slow down. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info And the funny thing is that once he slowed down, the other Tatar soldiers slowed down.
If such an obvious temptation Jiang Xia would also be tricked, then Jiang Xia would not be Jiang Xia.
He laughed and yelled, "Fools, we'll see you later!"
After speaking, Jiang Xia ordered: "The rear team becomes the front team, retreat!"
Everyone immediately turned their horses' heads, turned around and ran towards the gate of the Ningxia Zhongwei City.
The expression on the face of every soldier who went out of the city to fight was very excited, since the war with Turpan, the Ming soldiers and horses were the first time to try the taste of victory.
Although the victory was not too great, and the loss of troops did not take much advantage, it was enough to boost morale.
Gan Yong rode his horse forward and said, "My lord, I killed five people just now. Kill five more and I'll be able to save this little life, hahaha......"
"Still nonsense, run, those fools are catching up. Jiang Xia laughed and roared loudly, and with a flick of the horse's reins, the horse immediately accelerated.
The Turpan cavalry, who wanted to lure Jiang Xia and them deep, turned around when they saw Jiang Xia and they were about to reach the ambush point, and they suffered a lot of losses, where were they willing to let Jiang Xia and them leave.
So the Turpan cavalry blew the horn, and then turned around and chased back.
Jiang Xia naturally couldn't let them catch up, so he let go of his horsepower after roaring and rushed towards the city gate.
Gradually getting closer to the city gate, Jiang Xia was shocked that the city gate was closed.
He looked up at the city gate and shouted, "Whoever closes the city gate, open it quickly!"
On the city tower, Yan Song stretched out a head and glanced at Jiang Xia, and said with a smile: "Lord Jiang, aren't you very majestic, very powerful, and amazing? Then please Lord Jiang defeat the enemy, let us appreciate your demeanor." ”
"Yan Song?" Jiang Xia's eyes widened, it stands to reason that he has already put Yan Song in prison, and no one should dare to let him out.
In the end, Jiang Xia secretly scolded himself for being careless, he had already reacted to who was the person who let Yan Song out.
Liu Xiangfeng!
Jiang Xia didn't say anything more to Yan Song, because he knew that Yan Song must have made up his mind to put himself to death, no matter what he said or scolded him, he would not open the city gate, and it was just in vain.
Jiang Xia turned the horse's head and returned to the team that followed behind, and after stopping the horses under his crotch, Jiang Xia glanced at everyone and said, "The traitor Yan Song closed the city gate and wanted to kill me. We now have 27,000 men and horses, and the enemy has no more than 24,000 men and horses.
Now that the city gate has been closed and the back road has been cut off, we are fighting to the death with the enemy today, what do you think, brothers?"
"Yan Song, that bastard!" "If you let Lao Tzu enter the city alive, Lao Tzu will have to dismantle him into eight pieces!" "Holy shit, curse him for giving birth to a son without an asshole!"
The soldiers scolded Yan Song with a word, and then Gan Yong yelled: "Okay, okay, now the matter has come to this." Let's listen to Master Jiang and fight to the death with the other party!
I am willing to be brave in this life, and I can get a glimpse of your demeanor and be able to fight side by side with you. It's worth it, it's worth dying!"
Gan Yong's words were true, and Jiang Xia was also greatly moved when he heard it.
Jiang Xia patted Gan Yong's shoulder, nodded and said, "I Jiang Xia also feel honored to be able to meet you." ”
After speaking, Jiang Xia dismounted and picked up a big knife on the ground. He gently wiped the broadsword in his hand with the sleeve of his coat
He looked ahead with his eyes and said, "Brothers, the general will inevitably die in a hundred battles, and the man's horse leather shroud will be returned." Today, we are facing a strong enemy, and I hope you will not be afraid. As soldiers, it is our destiny to die on the battlefield. Today, let me fight a bloody road together, meet on a narrow road, and win!"
"When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!" First the students of the martial arts hall shouted in unison, and then the soldiers of the Beijing camp also shouted loudly.
The Ming soldiers on the city tower were stunned, except for Yan Song's personal guards, the rest of the soldiers turned around and knelt down to Yan Song and saluted: "My lord, please open the city gate and let Lord Jiang and them enter the city." They are all fighting for the Ming Dynasty, and we can't harm them like this. ”
"Click!" Liu Xiangfeng snatched a steel knife from the hand of one of Yan Song's guards, put away the knife and slashed the soldier's throat.
Liu Xiangfeng shouted loudly: "Whoever dares to say such a thing again, this is the end!"
After Liu Xiangfeng was shocked by such iron-blooded methods, all the soldiers did not dare to speak anymore. They all looked at the city tower in unison, concerned about Jiang Xia's battle situation.
Seeing that all the Turpan cavalry were converging together, more than 20,000 cavalry were approaching this side.
Gao Jia raised the long knife in his hand that was still dripping blood and shouted: "The horse leather shroud has no regrets, and there is no fear of blood splashing on the battlefield!"
"The horse leather shroud has no regrets, and there is no fear of blood splashing on the battlefield!"
All the soldiers shouted in unison, and a fierce meaning of not fearing death suddenly emanated.
Perhaps as a sign of respect for his opponent, the leader in front of the Turpan cavalry on the opposite side raised his right hand slightly, and all the Turpan cavalry lined up, and the long knives in their hands were all pointed diagonally to the ground.
The leader himself pulled out a long knife from his waist, and the tip of the knife pointed at Jiang Xia.
Jiang Xia remembered that person, and in the current battle, he had fought with that person for dozens of rounds, and he had never been able to distinguish between superior and inferior. It shows that the man is also a master.
Jiang Xia also raised the big knife, and the tip of the knife was pointed at him.
Qiu Wenshi and Gao Jia commanded their own cavalry, also lined up. However, it can be seen from the array that the gap between the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty and the cavalry of Turpan in horse control technology is not half a star.
The opponent's formation was neatly aligned, while Jiang Xia's side was a little crooked.
Yan Song, who was on the tower of the city, immediately smiled proudly when he saw this situation, and whispered to himself: "Jiang Xia, don't you want to kill me? ”
The leader of the Turpan soldiers, with a long knife in his hand, pointed at it, and at the same time roared in Mongolian: "Kill!"
Jiang Xia also shouted loudly at the same time: "Kill!"
The two iron horsemen each rushed violently with the sound of earth-shattering killing. The person who led the troops on the other side rushed straight towards Jiang Xia, Xiao Kill and Qian Juexing originally wanted to replace Jiang Xia to meet that person, but Jiang Xia shouted: "You guys dodge, I will fight with him alone!"
On the battlefield, it is obviously a matter of putting the cart before the horse when the generals do not command, but go alone.
But now it's not fighting, it's desperate. It's a battle to the death with a similar number of people. As a man, a duel must have the appearance of a duel, so that whether he dies under the other party's knife or the other party dies under his own knife, it can be said that he died with dignity.
The Turpan cavalry grew up on horseback since childhood, and all of them were born cavalry seedlings with excellent equestrian skills.
As people who live by nomadic hunting on the grassland, they kill wolves and hunt bears are just idle things, so the fierce ordinary people of the Turpan cavalry are difficult to compare, and they can chase the Ming 110,000 soldiers and horses with 30,000 soldiers and horses, which is not entirely because the Ming soldiers and horses are incompetent.
Even if the lecture hall is well-trained and all of them are elite soldiers, it is still a little far to follow these Turpan cavalry alone, not to mention that the number of Turpan cavalry is far more than the number of lecture hall students.
As for the soldiers and horses of the other Beijing camps, they didn't even have half of the elite level of the students in the lecture hall, so the difference in strength between the two sides was indeed very large.
However, for Jiang Xia's side, they still have two advantages.
The first is that the Ming soldiers are well-armoured, and the second is that they have not retreated now, and they are not afraid of death.
A Turpan cavalryman stabbed a knife into the lower abdomen of a Ming soldier, and the Ming soldier threw the Turpan cavalry off his horse without thinking, and without a knife in his hand, he bit off the throat of the Turpan cavalry with his teeth, and finally bit him to death.
However, at the same time that this Ming soldier bit the Turpan cavalry to death, the Ming soldier had already inserted four spears, and the whole person was still staring at him before he died.
Xiao Kill suspected that the sword could not exert its power on the battlefield, so he also picked up a long sword.
I saw him sweep out a three-member Turpan cavalry with a single shot, and then drove his horse to Jiang Xia's side.
Jiang Xia collided with the leader of the Turpan cavalry, and the war horses under the crotches of the two took a few steps back.
Jiang Xia took advantage of the situation and cut off the head of a Turpan cavalry with a backhand, Xiao Shu stretched out his hand to grab Jiang Xia and said: "Brother Jiang, we can't fight hard with these Turpan cavalry anymore, the casualties are too great." ”
Jiang Xia glanced around, and saw that his own soldiers and horses had lost at least 6,000 people in this short period of time.
He glanced back at the city tower indignantly, and then after slashing off two heads with a swing of his big knife, he shouted loudly: "Retreat! All the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty retreat!"
Once Jiang Xia's orders were issued, they were passed down one after another.
Zhang Meng and Qian Juexing were originally inseparable from a wave of Turpan cavalry, but now when they heard the retreat, Zhang Meng hammered away several Turpan cavalry, then turned over and jumped onto his horse, and retreated with Jiangxia with a hard grip on the horse's belly.
Jiang Xia took the lead and led the Ming soldiers to evacuate to the south.
The man who led the troops in Turpan pointed at the long knife in his hand and shouted in Mongolia: "Chase!"
Previously, it was the Ming soldiers who were chasing and killing these Turpan cavalry, but now the role is reversed instantly, and the Turpan cavalry has become aggressive, and now they are chasing the Ming soldiers, and they are chasing after them relentlessly.
Jiang Xia was unfamiliar with the terrain, and ran into a narrow path after running wildly. On either side of the path were upright cliffs, and the gap in the middle seemed to have been cut by a great axe, and the width was only large enough for two horses to walk side by head.
Although the terrain was dangerous, there were chasing soldiers behind him, and Jiang Xia didn't have time to think more, so he took the lead and rushed directly into the trail.
The Turpan cavalry who were pursuing from the rear immediately laughed when they saw Jiang Xia leading people to gallop into the trail on horseback, and he shouted in Mongolian: "Release the arrow!" r1058
