Desert Journey 11

Thousands of wolf infantry retreated like a tide, leaving behind a large battalion full of disarrays.

Seeing that the enemy army was retreating, Xie Tong breathed a sigh of relief and also went limp. In this fight, he had seriously overdrawn his physical strength, and at this time, he found that his whole body was extremely sore, and there were seven or eight small injuries all over his body, although it was not a big problem, but it was also extremely painful, and he had to rest immediately.

Hong Shan and Cai Wei were also tired enough, they walked up to Xie Tong covered in blood, didn't care about anything else, sat on the ground, panting heavily.

At this time, Guan Yong came to report, "General Xie, the brothers have probably lost more than 2,000 people and more than 500 dead and wounded, but we have probably destroyed more than 7,000 enemies, which is a rare victory!"

Xie Tong didn't want to discourage him, but the fact was right in front of him, the wolf army lost 7,000 people, but it didn't hurt its muscles and bones, and their more than 2,000 people were very deadly.

Xie Tong sat on the ground weakly and said, "Guan Yong, tell me to go down, rest and eat immediately, and prepare to deal with the next charge of the enemy army!

Guan Yong hurriedly went down to deliver the news.

Cai Wei smiled, "Is it necessary to be so nervous? According to this girl, the Turkic wolf army is nothing more than that!"

Xie Tong was speechless, and said, "We seem to be a big victory, but in fact the enemy did not use all his strength! The enemy's crushing defeat is actually traceable, first, the long journey, the men and horses are tired, second, the cavalry on the two wings is in a wait-and-see state, and did not participate in the battle, and the cavalry is not good at attacking the camp, if all dismounted and changed to infantry, the effect will be much more amazing!"

Hong Shan said, "It turns out that there are so many big truths in it, I don't know if Chongli can see these problems!"

Xie Tong said, "It's hard to guess, but he is the national teacher of the ******, and there should be two hits, and the cavalry on both wings is inevitable to participate in the battle, it is difficult to survive this afternoon, but as long as it is supported until dusk and night, we will be equivalent to a big victory."

Cai Wei frowned and didn't make a sound.

Except for the soldiers who were on guard, everyone rested in place.

Xie Tong sat on the ground, circulating all the Huang Tian True Qi in his body, nine hundred and eighty-one weeks later, he felt that the True Qi in his body was surging, and there was a feeling of endless life, Huang Tian Dafa really lived up to his reputation, he recovered his strength in the shortest possible time, as if there was no loss before, if it weren't for more than a dozen small wounds, even he couldn't believe his eyes.

At this moment, the trumpets of the Turks sounded again.

The sound of the whining horn sounded in an instant on the Eguna Plain, and the soldiers of the Tang Army woke up directly in a sweet dream, and they hurriedly picked up their weapons and prepared to meet this zhang.

Xie Tong stood up, he was really lucky, and he ran directly to the dilapidated sentry tower and looked around.

As expected, Chongli learned a lesson this time, and instead of blindly and arrogantly despising the Tang army, he chose to advance in three ways, striving to annihilate the Tang army.

However, Xie Tong was still very relieved, maybe the grassland was pursuing hard power! Instead, he ignored many details, Chongli did not change the cavalry into infantry, watching the iron cavalry of those wolf armies rushing over, Xie Tong suddenly felt that they were very stupid and pitiful.

But Xie Tong was not in the mood to pity them, these people were all his enemies.

Xie Tong retracted his mind and commanded, "Guan Yong, bring me the two thousand brothers of the reserve, one thousand brothers to hold the direction of Mobei, and one thousand brothers to join the camp of the guards, remember, don't blindly fight, maintain physical strength, our goal is to preserve the living force, and we can't let people break through the camp."

Guan Yong looked at Xie Tong blankly, such a request was too difficult, and he didn't know how to implement it.

But he didn't dare to disobey Xie Tong's order, and hurriedly organized the army to assemble.

Since the arrows of the Tang army had already been fired, there was no means to stop the cavalry charge, and the enemy soon broke through the fences on both flanks, forming a situation of encirclement on three sides.

Xie Tong suddenly felt his scalp tingle, but he suddenly found that the two wings of the camp did not know when to pile up a defensive fence built of carriages, corpses and waste, which was half a person high, just enough to block the enemy's unstoppable offensive, leaving only an exit in the direction of the Turkic Chinese army, thinking that Guan Yong took advantage of the Turkic people to rest, the temporary defense was built by Guan Yong, although it looked dirty and disgusting, but it was very effective, in this battlefield where life has become a luxury, who would take care of this!

Xie Tong said in his heart Guan Yong is really a wise general, if he can get out of here alive, he will have a bright future in the future.

The enemy's attack was directly delayed, and he had to attack from the front, so that the superiority in forces would not be so obvious for a while.

The cavalry on both flanks of the enemy and the infantry of the Chinese army were mixed together and rushed in swarm.

Xie Tong secretly scolded Chongli for being stupid, such a commandless battle, so that the cavalry and infantry restrained each other, there was no room to play at all, but it greatly restricted the advantages of the troops.

The cavalry and infantry were crowded together, and the horses could not move an inch.

Xie Tong was overjoyed and shouted, "Brothers, kill!"

He jumped down from the tower, inserted the green steel sword into its scabbard, and instead picked up a spear and walked towards the front of the confrontation between the two armies.

In such crowded places, the longer the weapon, the more advantageous it is.

Xie Tong's spear directly pierced a cavalryman, and the head of the spear entered the chest and rushed out, revealing the tip of the spear more than a foot.

The enemy who was hit by the arrow stared at Xie Tong deadly, but his fate was already in Xie Tong's hands, and his body was hanging on the spear, unable to do anything.

I saw him clenching his saber and slashing towards the barrel of the gun, with a ding, the spear sparked, but it was not broken, Xie Tong felt for a while holding the spear, you can imagine how painful this enemy should be.

Xie Tong clenched the spear tightly, and with a round horizontally, he directly knocked down several enemies, and the enemies on the spear also flew out sideways, not knowing where they fell.

The enemy and the enemy are fighting in this small space, and neither side has the advantage.

Xie Tong's spear made the tiger angry, although he had never used such a long weapon, but it was more than wrong to deal with these ordinary soldiers, in just half an hour, there were at least twenty enemies who died on the head of his spear.

Chongli saw it really, if it went on like this, even if the wolf army was dead, it would be difficult to break through this space, and he scolded angrily in Turkic language, "It's all a bunch of waste, you know how to fight hard, and if you remove the barriers of the two pennies, you can form a circle."

Xie Tong couldn't understand Turkic language, so it was good that Shi Jianing was here.

But when he saw that many of the enemy were withdrawing to the two flanks, he had already guessed seven or eight points.

Sure enough, the enemy began to unload the wagons and corpses, and the obstacle that was more than half a man tall was instantly shortened, and if it continued like this, within the time of the two pillars of incense, the obstacle to the two withdrawals would be gone.

He had to stop it.

Thinking of this, he said in a loud voice, "Brother with good skills, rush out with me, and I can't let the enemy remove the obstacles." ”

With that, he dropped his spear, drew his green steel sword, which had drunk the blood of his enemies, and turned over to overcome the obstacles.

The Turks had known Xie Tong for a long time, and his bravery had left a great impression on the wolf army. But I didn't expect him to rush out at the risk of death.

Before Xie Tong could hit the ground, several spears stabbed straight at him.

Xie Tong didn't wait for the landing to land, he hurriedly used the green steel sword, a little on the spear, and with the help of the power of this blow, his body soared into the air, passing the sharp stabs of several spears, and landed on the back of an enemy soldier's horse.

This enemy is also very skilled, he handed over the horse chopping knife to the left and right, leaned forward, took out a dagger in the deerskin boot with his right hand, and slashed towards Xie Tong with his backhand.

This person's movements are coherent and agile, and some of the columns of the party are completed in an instant.

Xie Tong had just jumped on the horse, and although he couldn't see his movements clearly, he had guessed seven or eight points, and he hurriedly handed his right arm forward, just hitting the enemy's wrist, blocking the mysterious blow.

The man in black was obviously also a famous martial artist, and when he saw that his wrist was restrained, he did not panic, but instead leaned towards Xie Tong and leaned directly into Xie Tong's arms, and at the same time, his feet kicked towards Xie Tong's Tianling Gai from top to bottom, this move was very exquisite, and even Xie Tong did not expect it.

At the same time, two cavalrymen roared in, and two swords were plunged straight into Xie Tong's back.

Xie Tong had already sensed the strangeness behind him, and in the face of the enemy's front and back attacks, he had to change his moves. He followed the example of the enemy on horseback, and his body fell backwards, causing the enemy to kick into the air, and the two swords of the horse were also inserted.

Xie Tong leaned back with great strength, and the two fell off the horse at the same time, Xie Tong carried his true qi, and at the moment he landed, his left palm was supported on the ground, and with the power of this support, his body rose sharply and landed in front of the obstacle.

The enemy on horseback fell heavily to the ground.

The enemy Hu Lai suddenly surrounded him, forming a semi-encircled circle.

Xie Tong had to sigh that the wolf army's individual combat ability was indeed much higher than that of the Tang army, but unfortunately, the weapons were backward and there was a lack of excellent commanders and generals, otherwise it would be easy for such a large army to sweep the Central Plains.

The soldiers of the Tang Army saw Xie Tong jump out, and some sturdy soldiers also followed Xie Tong's example and jumped out.

But there were too many enemies, and under the siege, they were killed by the enemy in a few rounds.

But no one dared to jump out, and could only watch the enemy dismantle the obstacles little by little.

Xie Tong looked very anxious, but there was nothing he could do, in front of him was a battle against the water, if he won the battle, he would become famous in the desert and resolve the crisis, and if he lost, he would be in a different place. Now is the truest portrayal of Xie Tong and the Tang Army.

Xie Tong leaned against the obstacle with his back, and saw several spears stabbing from the top, middle and bottom directions at the same time, not giving him any room to dodge at all.

He swept the green steel sword violently, cutting off the tips of several spears in succession, but the enemy was very persistent, and after the tip of the spear broke, it turned into an iron rod, still stabbing straight and straight.

The attack range of the spear was far greater than that of the Qinggang sword, even if Xie Tong cut off the tip of the spear, it was still useless, he suddenly handed the sword back to his left hand, secretly raised his true qi, and slapped a palm two feet in front of him.

Palm Jin carried Gangfeng and rushed forward directly, knocking down several enemies at once, slightly easing the offensive of this round.

However, the enemy's follow-up troops followed, and several spears stabbed at them.

Xie Tong complained bitterly in his heart, if he continues like this, he is afraid that he will be exhausted to death if he is not killed. Seeing the spear stabbing at him, he didn't fight hard, but used the whirlwind footwork to skillfully avoid these spears, and at the moment when the spears retreated, Xie Tong's figure rose up and rushed over with the spear. Reach the enemy in the blink of an eye.

With a wave of the green steel sword, it directly broke the throat of a person, and blood splattered everywhere.

Seeing Xie Tong break through the encirclement of the spear array, several people pulled out steel knives and slashed at Xie Tong.

Xie Tong's feet were not straight, he squatted down slightly, avoided the steel knife that came from the rapid chopping, and immediately got up, kicked the enemy's lower abdomen, and the enemy flew out with blood wildly, directly loading into the crowd of people who were about to rush over.

Xie Tong secretly shouted that it was dangerous, and he glanced at it with his peripheral vision, the enemy had already dismantled most of the obstacles, and the cavalry also easily jumped in, and the Tang army finally fell into a bitter battle of three bread sandwiches.

And he, almost surrounded by the enemy.

Xie Tong didn't dare to stay here, he was busy lifting his true qi, running wildly, and slashing at the opposite side, Xie Tong landed on both feet, his figure rose into the air, and jumped into the camp of the Tang Army.

At this moment, the shouts of killing shook the sky, and more than 30,000 Turkic wolf troops launched a siege on these thousands of men and horses, and the soldiers fell one by one.

Xie Tong knew that he had to withdraw from the camp at this moment, and he would be surrounded by the enemy in a late manner, and he would not even have a chance to escape to the desert.

He hurriedly said in a loud voice, "The whole army is close to retreat, withdraw from the battalion, Guan Yong, and order the rear army to come to respond."

The soldiers consciously moved closer to Xie Tong, and Cai Wei and Hong Shan had already stuck to Xie Tong's side, next to him inch by inch.

Xie Tong shouted in a low voice, "When you break through for a while, you must not leave me two feet away." ”

The second daughter nodded.

The Tang army automatically formed a circle, with Xie Tong as the center, and retreated in the direction of the desert while fighting.

The Turkic wolf army finally stormed the camp.

The addition of this thousand life forces, after all, also changed the situation, the two armies merged in one place, slowly retreating towards Mobei, Xie Tong took the second daughter, personally came to the rear of the camp, commanded the soldiers, **** westward, and never gave the enemy a chance to encircle.

However, there were too many enemy cavalry, and from time to time they outflanked from both wings, Xie Tong picked up the moon bow and shot out the remaining bamboo arrows one by one, and the outflanked enemy troops fell one by one.

The Turkic wolf army was obviously very jealous of Xie Tong's precise swordsmanship, and no one dared to outflank him.

After the Tang army withdrew from the camp, the entire camp was occupied by the Turkic wolf army.

Dusk is approaching.

Xie Tong looked at the bamboo arrow left in his hand, and said, "Whoever has a fire fold, who still has an arrow!"

Everyone shook their heads indifferently, and Cai Wei said, "There are fire folds, but there are no bamboo arrows."

Everyone was disappointed, they all knew that there was black oil and gunpowder buried in the camp, but the only remaining arrow could accurately ignite the explosives?

The number of the Tang army was sharply reduced, from the initial 8,000 men, to less than 2,000 remained, and the strength was greatly reduced, while the Turkic cavalry was still constantly pursuing.

Xie Tong took the fire fold, lit a rocket, and said, "Brothers, success or failure is here!"

With that, the moon bow will be full. (To be continued.) )
