Chapter 77 Food and Money Crisis

Wu Bo turned his head and stared at the Xirong cavalry who were getting closer and closer.?

A hundred steps away, Mu Tianlang had fired three rounds of arrow rain with his heavy crossbow, which slightly slowed down the Xirong cavalry. However, the heavy crossbow was inconvenient to carry. He did not bring much money and food in total during the escort. The number of Xirong cavalry shot down was limited.

No harm to the overall situation.

In the blink of an eye, the Xirong cavalry had advanced a hundred steps, and the Dagan soldiers could clearly see the excited faces of the Xirong cavalry, as well as the arms that were bending their bows and setting arrows.

A round of light bows and sharp arrows crisscrossed in the air. Shepherd Tianlang had a carriage hiding, and there were not many casualties. On the contrary, many Xirong cavalry were shot down.

The spurring horse formation finally worked and trapped the Xirong cavalry. However, the number of Mu Tianlang was only 5,000, while the Xirong cavalry exceeded 20,000. When the two armies first connected, Mu Tianlang suffered heavy casualties.

Upon seeing this, Mu Tianlang's generals shouted: "Disrupt the carriages and all battalions retreat to the mountains!"

In the horse stabbing formation just now, nearly half of the carriages had not been unloaded, and the mules and horses were all covered with black cloth. Except for those who were hit by arrows and ran away in pain, most of them were still in place. At this time, when the black cloth was taken off, suddenly appeared in front of them.

There were over ten thousand horses, and all the mules and horses were frightened and panicked.

Coupled with the soldiers of Mu Tianlang driving behind them, these mules, horses and carts all ran towards the Xirong cavalry, blocking the Xirong cavalry. For a moment, they fell on their backs, and Mu Tianlang hurriedly retreated towards the mountain in panic.

As soon as the two armies met, one of Wu Bo's soldiers was already dead and one wounded. The remaining seven people, taking the wounded and a frightened Xiao Liu, hurriedly ran towards the mountains and forests.

Xiao Liu looked back and saw that hundreds of patrolmen were desperately resisting the enemy and rescuing some lone soldiers. A patrolman shouted while resisting: "Soldiers of each battalion, please do not leave alone and go to the mountains and into the woods.

.....”

Before the words were finished, they stopped abruptly. Xiao Liu looked quickly and saw that the patrolman had fallen off his horse and was motionless. Xiao Liu suddenly felt a sore nose and couldn't help but shed tears.

Wu Bo's deep voice came from next to him: "Xiao Liu, remember, we soldiers are patrolling in uniform, not because they are riding horses and yelling at us.

If you want to be a patrol rider in the future, you have to follow their example."

Xiao Liu nodded heavily and clenched the long knife in his hand.

In this blink of an eye, not many of the hundreds of patrols were left. Blocked by the patrols and mule carts, these lone soldiers had retreated to the edge of the forest. They were now forming formations, hurriedly seeking protection from large rocks and dense forests.

.

Suddenly, a loud shout was heard from the Xirong army on the opposite side: "Kill!" It was like thunder on the ground, which shocked the ears of Mu Tianlang soldiers.

As soon as the crowd was divided, an eight-foot-long man walked out carrying a giant axe. With a wave of his right arm, the giant ax swept across and knocked a frightened horse away. He quickly reached out with his left hand and pinched another horse.

He yelled loudly and used one arm to crush the mule and horse's neck. He clenched his fingers fiercely and the mule and horse twitched and collapsed to the ground. It was obvious that the neck bone had been broken.

There was a burst of cheers from the Xirong army. With the momentum of the big men, they finally broke through the horse-spur formation. All the mule carts in the Xingfeng Valley had fallen into the hands of the Xirong cavalry. Some anxious cavalry pushed away the large horses on the carts.

He opened the box, revealing the yellow and white stuff inside, and then he took a breath of air and let out a sound of exclamation.

The Mu Tianlang soldiers who were escorting the money and grains fought and retreated, but the money and grains were lost. The matter was so important that they should be killed according to the law. The leading general had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight with the Xirong cavalry, hoping that reinforcements from outside the valley would arrive in time.

It happened that the box containing money and food was broken open, which temporarily attracted the attention of the Xirong cavalry. This gave Mu Tianlang soldiers a chance to breathe, and used the terrain to cover and fight back against the Xirong cavalry.

"Warriors of Xirong, everyone has a share of these treasures and food. Let's sweep away the flies from these big Gans first, then bring them back and we will share them slowly."

A mighty voice came out, it was Ning Erfeng, who was sitting on a snow-white war horse, which looked like a divine horse.

Ning'erfeng didn't even glance at the money and grain, but looked at Mu Tianlang who was retreating towards the hillside, nodded and said: "The soldiers use their lives to defeat without chaos. It seems that there are a few talented generals in the Dagan army.

"

A deputy general next to him replied: "What the commander-in-chief said is true. Liu Ce and Huchajing are well-known in Dagan, and they really have a good way of training troops. But when they encounter this domineering prince commander, they can't do anything with their strength."

"This Li Luo is young and energetic, but there is no guarantee that he will not be another Li Chengye in a few years. We must not take it lightly."

"Yes." The deputy general responded, but his expression was quite unconcerned.

As he spoke, the Xirong cavalry shouted loudly, put down their belongings, and rode towards the remaining Shepherd Sirius soldiers.

on the hill.

Wu Bo and his party were leaning on the boulder, firing arrows at the Xi Rong cavalry who were rushing up. These cavalry were vigorous and their horsemanship was good. They waved their sabers to deflect the sharp arrows, and stepped towards the Mu Tianlang soldiers step by step.

go.

Xiao Liu looked at the enemy soldiers getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but turn to Wu Bo and said: "Wu Tou, there are so many enemies, let's run."

Wu Bo shouted: "Shut up, why are you panicking? Remember, you can only survive if you remain calm in the face of danger on the battlefield. If you panic like this, you will be the first to die."

Xiao Liu was so frightened that he shrank and lowered his head, not daring to speak.

Mu Tianlang relied on the advantage of the terrain to barely resist the attack of the Xirong cavalry. When the Xirong cavalry retreated slightly, Mu Tianlang stepped forward and entangled the enemy, preventing the Xirong tribe from having time to pull away the carriage carrying money and grain.

, but Xirong has a large number of people, and within a moment, most of these carriages have entered the Xirong camp.

During the tug of war, nearly half of Wu Bo's troops were lost. Xiao Liu no longer hid behind people, picked up a long knife, and slashed at the advancing Xirong enemy soldiers.

Suddenly, a horn sounded from the Xirong army, and the army turned around and began to retreat out of the valley. All the chariots and horses in the valley fell into the hands of the Xirong. The front army was cut off, and the troops rushed out of the valley in confusion.

A sad cry came from Mu Tianlang's army: "Soldiers, you are also a hero in life, and you are a hero in death. You must not let food and grass fall into the hands of Xirong. Kill me!" After saying this, he shouted wildly and rushed forward first.

After going out, the remaining soldiers followed closely and went to kill the Xirong tribe.

Wu Bo marches in the army.

The man who joked about Wu Bo before raised his long knife, glanced at the remaining six people, laughed and said: "Those who survive will collect their bodies for the brothers. When we meet again at Twin Peaks Camp in eighteen years, I will treat you to a drink!"

After saying that, he turned around and jumped out of the boulder. The remaining people shouted wildly: "We will see you again in the Twin Peaks Camp in eighteen years!" Several groups of people nearby also shouted loudly: "In eighteen years, the Twin Peaks Camp will meet again!"

Goodbye!"

For a moment, this voice infected the surviving soldiers of Mu Tianlang. They all shouted in unison, and the heroic and desolate voice actually overshadowed the sounds of fighting on the battlefield.
