Chapter 135: Bloody Battle

Nearly 200 miles west of Humaguan, it is deserted, and there is only yellow sand as far as the eye can see.

Two days ago, Hu Maguan received news that Chu Yujia, who had now gone to the depths of the desert to conquer the desert tribes, had returned with his team.

In fact, even if he didn't follow Chu Yujia to conquer the desert tribes, just because Yang Renqi had been by Chu Qianwen's side before, he knew the temperament of these desert tribes.

Knowing that Chu Yujia was hurting the other party now, those desert tribes would definitely not be able to give up so easily, so after receiving the news, he immediately ordered the whole army to go to the depths of the desert to meet Chu Yujia and others.

20,000 men pulled out the armor soldiers directly on the desert, 5,000 light tops were at the forefront, and 15,000 foot soldiers also formed a battle formation in the rear, ready to meet the desert tribes rushing at any time.

After Chu Qianwen's death, Ye Wang Zhao Yan did not cancel the title of the Northwest Army, but appointed Yang Renqi as the new commander of the Northwest Army, but after Chu Qianwen's death, the Northwest Army was transferred away, and the retired soldiers were discharged, leaving only an empty shelf, and Yang Renqi did not have the prestige of Chu Qianwen, so he couldn't suppress those old soldiers at all.

Later, Yang Renqi could only do nothing, and all the old soldiers in the generals were dismissed, leaving only some of his henchmen, and the rest were all newly recruited recruits.

After waiting here for half a day, until noon, the front door began to kick up billowing smoke.

Yang Renqi put up a pergola and looked forward, even if his identity was thrown away, he was also a veteran in the army, seeing such a scene at this time, how could he not know what was happening?

Yang Renqi raised his hand and ordered: "Pass the order, the whole army will be ready for battle, and when our army passes, immediately set up a horse rejection pit to dig a horse trap." ”

After fighting with the cavalry for a long time, it is natural to have a set of methods for fighting the cavalry.

The distance of five miles, and in the case of high-speed running, it was almost in the blink of an eye.

The first thing that caught their eye was the Northwest Light Horse, after this day and a night of wild running, they were already exhausted, and now they have reached the limit.

After passing through their own crowd, many people were no longer able to get off the horses, lying on the back of the horses and gasping for breath, and even the people and horses fell to the ground together, both strands were grinding and bleeding, and the horse's mouth was already foaming at the mouth, and it was impossible to see it.

Chu Yujia turned his horse's head, came to Yang Renqi's approach, and said, "I have brought people back, and it is up to you next." ”

Yang Renqi picked the corners of his mouth and said, "Don't worry, General, although my new Northwest Army is not as good as your Northwest Light Cavalry, I am not a vegetarian." ”

When the words fell, Yang Renqi began to convey the military orders in an orderly manner, first of all, to set up a horse rejection in front of the military formation and dig a horse pit.

It is not nonsense to say that the speed of the enemy army is coming in a blink of an eye, they only have less than a quarter of an hour to carry out these things, but fortunately, Yang Renqi was well prepared before, when the enemy army entered in front of him, five thousand light horsemen shouted and killed in unison, and then rushed forward against the opponent's iron cavalry torrent.

At this moment, looking down from the sky, you can see two torrents of iron horses, and the hooves of the horses almost break through the earth and rush to the head with the momentum of thunder.

The distance between the two sides continued to narrow as the ground continued to tremble, but before the battle could be engaged, people began to fall one after another on the side of the desert cavalry array.

As Chu Yujia expected, they were tired, how could these desert cavalry who were chasing behind be okay?

forcibly marched for more than 200 miles, even Chu Yujia, more than 1,000 people, were veterans of the Northwest Army, and they couldn't stand it anymore if they rode two war horses, let alone them.

No matter how brave and good the desert tribes are, no matter how skilled they are, they are not iron bodies, and the desert cavalry is already sleepy and lacking horses.

In such a military duel, the consequences of falling can already be imagined, and in the blink of an eye, they will be trampled into pieces by the torrent that rushes by.

The two torrents were head-on, and the moment they collided together, they turned over on their backs, and the horsemen on both sides kept falling off their horses, and for a time nearly a thousand horsemen did not get up after falling.

In such a melee, as the war contact surface became larger and larger, the New Northwest Army, which was waiting for battle, showed its advantages.

After all, the desert tribe has been running wild for a day and a night, and they are waiting here, their physical strength is at their peak, although the other party has a large number of people, but in the face of five thousand horsemen, they still can't show their advantage in numbers, and there are desert horsemen who can't bear it one after another, and they fall off their horses.

Chu Yujia, Qi Zhong and others, who had taken a breath, no longer hesitated and rushed into the battlefield one after another.

In the war of 1,000 people, the role played by a master like Chu Yujia should not be underestimated, but in this kind of war of 10,000 people, the role he can play is very small.

After all, no matter how powerful he is, he is just one person, and many times he still has to rely on his own soldiers to decide the final victory.

But it is worth mentioning that seeing their own generals rushing into the battlefield will naturally play an uplifting role.

As the old saying goes, there will be a heart to die, and a soldier has no greed for life, and a general dares to fight like this, so won't the corporal be there?

What's more, who can feel good after being chased for nearly 200 miles?

Whether it was Chu Yujia or Qi Chong, they both felt that this was a shame, and they both held back their strength, and almost all of them had been killed into a vacuum around the two, no matter whether they were soldiers or generals, they all ended each other's lives with one move.

At this time, as the cavalry on both sides fought, the infantry soldiers also began to gradually surround this side, and it seemed that the encirclement was about to be completed.

Some of the Northwest Light Horsemen who were lying on the ground gasping for breath also got up from the ground one after another, rode the war horses that had been relieved, and rushed into the enemy's military formation again.

Fifteen thousand foot soldiers, under the command of a dozen commanders, methodically extended outward, and finally entered the war group.

Although the horse has a disadvantage over the horse, the current situation is that the desert tribe has nearly 20,000 horsemen but has never been able to take the 5,000 horsemen of the New Northwest Army, but has been pulled into the quagmire by these 5,000 horsemen and cannot get out, so when these foot soldiers enter the battlefield, under the command of Yang Renqi, they have begun to encircle the 20,000 horsemen.

The Ye people are brave, the Ye army is even more fearless of death, and if you want to say who is the best among the Ye army, it must be the Northwest Army.

Whether it is a new soldier of the Northwest Army or a veteran of the Northwest Army, there is a glory written in their hearts, a glory belonging to the Northwest Army.

Even if he is also a soldier, when he sees the Northwest Army, others have to take a look at it.

This is not because the Northwest Army earns a lot of military salaries, let alone because the Northwest Army's combat strength is much stronger than theirs, the reason is nothing more than that this army has been fighting against foreign enemies all the time.

They are guarding not only the border of Ye State, but also the border of the entire Mingwu Empire.

Every soldier of the Northwest Army is not afraid of death, even the men of the Huotou Army dare to carry a kitchen knife into battle to kill the enemy.

On weekdays, although many of the soldiers in the Northwest Army are like ruffians and scoundrels, as long as they go to the battlefield, no matter who they are, they don't have to fight with their lives.

As long as they go to the battlefield, they have nothing in their hearts, they can only kill the enemy, or be killed by the enemy.

Ye is the latest vassal state among the princes, and after the founding of the country, it will face the struggle with the princes and other countries, and the external competition with the Gumo country and the desert tribes, and the confrontation with the environment, but the Ye people have gained a foothold in the northwest by virtue of this tenacious stubbornness that never admits defeat.

They are poor, but they are loyal, they are loyal to the country, and they can give everything for the country.

Ye people do not take the initiative to provoke, but they are not afraid of others to provoke.

As long as the enemy dares to provoke, the only thing waiting for the enemy is steel knives, only spears, only fists, and only teeth.

As long as it is a means to kill the enemy, they will do whatever it takes, which is why they are called savagery, but they don't care.

As long as it is a means to kill the enemy, they do not hesitate to tear the enemy apart and eat it in one bite, and they are fearless, because they are Ye people.

At this time, a soldier had been cut through the abdomen by the spear in the opponent's hand, and his intestines were flowing all over the ground along the gap.

But the soldier dragged the desert rider off his horse under such circumstances, and without a weapon in his hand, he directly opened his mouth to bite the opponent's neck, tearing the skin on the opponent's neck, and piercing the enemy's trachea with two fingers.

In the eyes of the desert riders, they are no longer human, they are inhuman beasts and terrible devils.

Under the offensive of these Northwest Army, these desert cavalry soldiers gradually collapsed, and the front was pressed again and again, and they had retreated more than a hundred paces.

But at this time, the encirclement had been completed, and the 20,000 Northwest Army had already surrounded them.

Seeing this, the leader of the enemy's leading army hurriedly ordered: "Break out, break out." ”

But at this time, is it still useful to break through, and is it still going out?

The biggest advantage of the cavalry is speed, but they have now been dragged into positional warfare by the Ye army, and many places have been dug out of the traps by the Northwest Army that came up close behind and put them on the horse rejection.

The desert cavalry rode a war horse and constantly hit the rejection horse, smashing the rejection horse at the same time, the war horse was also pierced through the chest and abdomen by the sharp end of the rejection horse.

After the desert cavalry fell from their horses, what awaited them was the spears and short knives of the Northwest Sergeants, who stabbed them into a hornet's nest and then chopped them into pulp.

The desert rider who fell into the horse pit was even more miserable, the war horse broke its neck on the spot, and the desert above was crushed to death by the own desert rider who fell into the horse pit next before he could recover from his senses.

In the end, the horses were crushed, and the pits were filled, but there were not many desert horsemen left.

The Northwest Army also launched an encirclement and suppression massacre of these desert cavalry soldiers under the leadership of generals such as Chu Yujia and Yang Renqi.

In this battle, except for a few desert cavalry who broke through the defense line and fled back to the depths of the grassland, they were all killed, and those who surrendered were no exception, and not all of them were beheaded......
