King Baishan realized that it was not easy to completely eat up the guard camp. He lost nearly one-fifth of his men in a single charge. It seemed that he had to change his strategy. Everyone would press forward. The focus was on the King of Huns and the As long as his two sons and daughters kill these three people, the mission will be successfully completed.
"Send an order to the generals to guard the four directions!" King Baishan ordered: "Let them be prepared to attack. I will wave my flag and rush over immediately! Tie the shield to the long ladder, put it on the pit and rush forward. , and also tell everyone that whoever takes the head of the Huns King will receive a reward of 3,000 taels and an official promotion of two levels!"
"yes!"
…
Rou Yue stood calmly behind Ji Jie and said softly: "Thank you!"
Ji Jie had no need to keep pretending. He took off his hat and said with a smile: "Your soldiers are very brave. I feel honored to fight with them!"
Rou Yue said sincerely: "I am very touched that you can help me regardless of the past. I solemnly apologize to you for what happened before!"
"No need!" Ji Jie said with a smile: "I've caught up with you too. It would be unjustifiable if I don't help!"
"Haha, I still don't know your name?"
"Ji Jie!"
"Ji Jie!" Rou Yue repeated and asked: "The surname Ji is the surname of the Zhou royal family. Are you a member of the royal family?"
Now that everyone has revealed his identity, there is no need to hide anything. He smiled and said: "I, Zhao Wenjun, have just become the governor of Zhou Dynasty a while ago, and signed an alliance with Yan State to help them train new troops and resist. The harassment by the Rongdi people, of course, includes you Huns!"
Rou Yue blushed. She had also personally participated in the plundering of the border between Great Zhou and Yan. Compared with Ji Jie's help regardless of past suspicions, what they did was really unkind.
"After this battle, I will tell my father not to be an enemy of your great Zhou Dynasty!" Rou Yue's expression was very sincere.
"Thank you!" Ji Jie's answer was brief.
"Woo...Woo..."
The horn sounded, and the White Mountain King's team launched a charge from four directions at the same time. The joints of the four parts were also handled properly, and the joints were not empty due to rapid movement.
The King of the Huns waved his hand, and his guards stood ready.
The Baishan tribe soldiers who were at the front dismounted one after another, holding up their shields to explore the way forward. When they encountered a pit, they smashed it open with a hammer, and then set up a long ladder with their shields tied to it. The cavalry behind them immediately passed by and headed towards the camp. .
Arrows rained down like rain, and soldiers from both sides began to shoot at each other. The overwhelming advantage of the Guards Battalion no longer existed. The enemy advanced very quickly and had already reached the front of the horse.
The horses slowed down the enemy's progress, and many of them were exposed to the sight of the crossbowmen. They were shot by several arrows at the same time and died miserably.
After Rou Yue learned Ji Jie's identity, she refused to leave his side. The two fired their bows and arrows together, but there was a big difference in their accuracy.
Ji Jie saw that Rou Yue's arrow skills were weak, so he took out a fine steel crossbow and handed it over, saying, "Use this one, it's more accurate!"
Rouyue was not polite to him, she took aim at an enemy and pulled the trigger. The crossbow flew faster than she expected, accurately shooting the enemy through the chest. The man spurted out a rain of blood and fell from his horse.
So fast, so powerful!
Although several lines of resistance were deployed, the enemy still rushed in and broke through the obstacles.
The Hun king shot an enemy to death with one arrow and shouted: "Spear!"
The guards immediately threw away the crossbows in their hands and bent down to pick up the spears lying on the ground. These spears were nearly two feet long. They only needed to hold the spear poles and punch the tails on the ground without exerting force. Aiming at the enemy, the force of the enemy's charge is enough to pierce oneself, or even penetrate the bodies of several people. From a distance, it looks like a candied haws.
King Baishan began to move forward with the remaining people. He wanted to see the Hun King die in front of his own eyes. He had endured him for so many years and finally waited for the day when he would come forward.
Many spears were hung on the enemy's corpses, and the Hun king shouted: "Back off, stab!"
The spearman took three steps back holding the barrel of his gun. The corpse hanging in front fell down. Everyone took a step forward in unison and thrust out their spears at the same time. Hundreds of lives were ruthlessly reaped.
With the guard camp as the center point, three circles radiated outward. The innermost one was the guard holding a spear, then there was a circle of dead bodies piled half a man high, and finally there was a circle of White Mountain King's men.
The White Mountain King's side suffered more than half of its casualties, and although the Guards Battalion only suffered one-third of its casualties, the disparity between the two sides was still huge. If they continued to fight like this, sooner or later they would all be exhausted.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the King of the Huns followed Rou Yue and shouted: "Rou'er, you go find Achi, and then take away five hundred people. You must break out of the siege. I will come to the rear!"
"No, King Baishan's goal is his father. It's better for you to break out with A'chi, and your daughter will be the queen!" Rouyue said stubbornly.
"The daughter listens to her father..."
"No, if you die, King Baishan's conspiracy will succeed. No matter what, you can leave here safely..."
Ji Jie thought that the relationship between the two father and daughter was quite deep, but the situation at hand was not optimistic. Let alone bringing half of the people together, they might not be able to rush out. The more than 2,000 people on the other side were not vegetarians.
And once you leave the camp, there will be no barrier to hold on to, and a few hundred people are simply not enough to fill the gap between your teeth!
If you can't fight hard, the final result of the defense will be to be slaughtered. The Hun King is as anxious as Rou Yue.
Ji Jie looked up and saw the White Mountain King coming, and he had a plan in his mind. As the saying goes, to catch the thief first, capture the king. As long as you can catch the old boy like the White Mountain King, it's no use no matter how many people he has!
Yes, just do it!
Ji Jie abandoned the quarreling father and daughter, turned around and went to the stable to take out Rou Yue's mount, got on the horse, clamped his legs together, and ran towards the direction of King Baishan.
"Ji Jie, what are you doing?" Rou Yue shouted, "Come back quickly, it's dangerous!"
The Hun King hurriedly asked: "Is he that Central Plains man?"
"Yes, he is Lord Zhou Zhaowen Ji Jie!" Rou Yue nodded and said.
"Ah, Lord Zhaowen Ji Jie!" The Hun King opened his mouth wide, and it was obvious that he had heard about Ji Jie.
Rou Yue was very dissatisfied and said: "Father, why don't you tell me many things you know? It was Xue Chan before, but now it's Ji Jie!"
The King of the Huns shook his head. He watched Ji Jie on horseback firing his bow repeatedly, each time with a barrage of arrows. Countless enemies died under his arrows, and no one could stop him.
King Baishan also saw Ji Jie blending into the deserted land, and shouted hysterically: "Quick, stop him and kill him!"
Dozens of arrows shot at Ji Jie at the same time. He was seen dodging left and right on the horse, jumping up and down. None of the arrows could hit him. However, as time went by, the white horse was hit by several arrows, and the blood It was stained red in many places, his running speed was obviously affected, and he was breathing heavily!
