In the past, we had never seen these old soldiers in Fengmenguan look so miserable.
One by one, the Black Sand Army took off the water bags from their waists and handed them to the old soldier Fengmenguan. The corners of his mouth were pursed unconsciously.
Even the generals in the Black Sand Army looked at Fan Sheng and others with intriguing looks. Although, their faces were full of regret.
"Commander Fan, drink some water."
Fan Sheng may not have been ignorant of what these people were thinking at this time. He took the water bag handed over by the general, drank a few sips, and only snorted softly, "I'll leave it to you to support these people under my command."
How can a defeated general speak bravely?
Even in front of his colleagues, he could no longer hold his head high. All the military achievements and reputation he had accumulated in his life were completely lost in this battle at Fengmenguan.
He also did not intend to let the Black Sand Army cooperate with him and let him take the lead in the subsequent matters as Xu Shidao said. He, Fan Sheng, is not so thick-skinned.
After just saying this, Fan Sheng ignored the generals of the Black Sand Army and continued walking forward with his men.
The generals of the Black Sand Army looked back at him, then looked at each other, all raising their eyebrows with intriguing expressions.
Then someone waved, "Give the water and dry food to the brothers in Fengmenguan! Then take them back! Those holding the horses, ask the brothers in Fengmenguan to mount their horses!"
The veterans at Fengmen Pass did not feel comfortable hearing this.
As the defeated army, why couldn't they hear the teasing in these words?
That horse is not easy to sit on, it will burn your buttocks!
Suddenly, the desert became lively.
Following the shouts of the officers and soldiers of the Black Sand Army, the defeated troops at Fengmen Pass who were lagging behind quickly gathered around. However, no one noticed that there was a pair of eyes nearly a kilometer away from the defeated troops at Fengmen Pass.
Staring at the scattered torches in the team.
At this time, seeing the defeated army and the Black Sand Army merge, these eyes disappeared behind the sand slope.
After some time.
The defeated army at Fengmenguan was finally half full and drank enough water, so they followed the cavalry of the Black Sand Army towards Xiping.
Fengmen Pass has been lost. No one thinks that the Black Sand Army's only 5,000 people can hope to take Fengmen Pass back. Not to mention that only 2,000 cavalry and the remaining 3,000 infantry are coming.
We are still setting up camp to rest and don’t know when we will arrive.
The atmosphere on the road was very dull.
The soldiers at Fengmenguan were just minding their own business, and this was obviously not just because of the strong wind and sand.
The battle of Fengmenguan is ahead. If they don't pick a tough battle and end it brilliantly, they won't be able to look up and look directly at the Dayu soldiers elsewhere for a long time.
I don’t know how far away we are from Xiping, but after walking for about half an hour, someone in the team suddenly changed their color and turned around to look behind them.
"The Liao dog is catching up!"
Immediately afterwards, there was a scream with deep fear.
Many soldiers who were left behind were so frightened that they rolled and crawled up the sandy slope.
When facing cavalry, the best way is to run to a place with obstacles. And if there is no such place, running up a slope is the best choice.
Because the slope can effectively alleviate the impact of the cavalry.
Although, in fact, at this time, the soldiers who heard the movement behind were very confused as to how these Liao troops caught up. And listening to the movement, it seemed that they were not slow.
Can they still run wildly at night like this?
"Run quickly!"
"The Liao army is chasing us!"
"Run!"
Soon, panic spread.
The movement behind came very quickly, and gradually you could feel the vibration coming from the yellow sand ground.
In the desert, only cavalry could cause such a movement.
The old soldiers at Fengmen Pass were really in a panic for a moment, and they all ran towards the sandy slope next to them in a hurry.
Let alone an ordinary martial artist, even a fourth-grade martial artist would be extremely unwise to confront the charging cavalry.
"Hush!"
The surrounding Black Sand Army cavalry also heard the movement behind them.
They reined in their horses one after another and shouted to the people in front of them.
As cavalrymen, they were very familiar with the movements behind them. But the more they were like this, the more doubts they had in their eyes.
Because they really couldn't understand why the cavalry behind them could run at such a fast speed in such an environment. In their understanding, this was unreasonable.
"Line up to meet the enemy!"
"quick!"
"Array up!"
Some generals in the Black Sand Army hurriedly called on their soldiers to form formations and prepare for battle.
No matter what the movement behind them is, it is obvious that they cannot sit here and wait for death.
…
"kill!"
"Yo yo!"
Soon, the things catching up behind revealed their true appearance.
Looking at the cavalry running at extremely fast speeds in the hazy yellow sand, the faces of the Heisha sergeants who had just been full of confusion and confusion just now changed in a hurry.
The same goes for the generals in the Black Sand Army, as well as Fan Sheng and other Fengmenguan soldiers.
"Run!"
Fan Sheng still couldn't stop shouting at the Black Sand Army who were arrayed on the ancient road to meet the enemy.
Two thousand Black Sand Army cavalry.
One thousand heavy cavalry, one thousand light cavalry, the heavy cavalry is placed in front of the light cavalry.
But what's the point!
The cavalry that has not charged is completely different from the cavalry that has already charged.
A thousand cavalry charging out can easily destroy cavalry several times their size.
But unfortunately, it was too late.
Fan Sheng didn't need to shout. Those Black Sand Army soldiers on the ancient road also understood that continuing to block the road like this was no different from seeking death. However, they had no chance to escape.
Those Liao army cavalry in the yellow sand were so fast, it was like a sandstorm.
They soon arrived.
The momentum alone has already caused the formation of the Black Sand Army to panic.
It was not until recently that the soldiers of the Black Sand Army suddenly understood why these Liao Army cavalry were able to charge in such a harsh environment.
They even covered the horses' eyes with cloth.
In other words, they are purely using their own equestrian skills to control the horses.
In this way, they can still maintain a tight formation!
This Liao army is so extraordinary.
Each of these soldiers on horseback can be called a master of equestrian skills, or they have been specially trained for such situations.
This has never happened before in the Chongqing Army.
Because the cavalry does not go out at night, this is almost a normal thing.
"ah!"
"boom!"
"..."
Two iron cavalry.
The Black Sand Army is like a poplar forest rooted in the ground, while the Liao Army's cavalry is like a whirlwind.
I saw a whirlwind passing through the poplar forest, instantly rolling up fallen leaves.
Those are heads or arms.
Blood is flying.
The screams were endless.
The Black Sand Army cavalry stuck on the ancient road turned out to be like wheat, being harvested in patches by the Liao Army's cavalry.
The Fengmenguan soldiers on the sand slope could see that the Black Sand Army formation was being swallowed up quickly, and their faces began to turn pale.
