The horses of both opposing sides were extremely fast, and the distance between them was quickly shortened to less than forty steps. Just when the food army was preparing for a hard attack, Su Yan saw Su Yan raise his arms and use his energy.
He yelled loudly.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Su Yan's general gave the order, and the eight thousand Tang cavalry who had been waiting for a long time all fired their crossbows. The front row fired directly and the rear row ejected. However, there was a loud sound of the machine spring, and more than 80,000 steel arrows exploded.
came out, overwhelmingly covering the Great Food Cavalry Formation.
Chaos, unstoppable chaos! The Dashi Cavalry had originally attacked in a hurry. It is hard to describe how rigorous the charging formation was. But when they were ransacked by such a dense rain of arrows from the Tang army, they were completely in chaos. The more than a thousand soldiers at the front were in complete chaos.
The howler rolled off his horse, and those who came after him couldn't avoid it, and were tripped over a large area. The men and horses trampled each other, and the casualties were heavy. What's more serious is that the momentum of the entire charge was almost lost. This was
This gave the Tang army a great opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
"Raise your sword and kill in!"
Su Yan was a veteran on the battlefield, so naturally he would not let go of such an opportunity to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. He roared violently, raised the horizontal sword in his hand, and rushed into the rebel army, slashing left and right.
All the enemies they encountered were killed off their horses. Upon seeing this, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were following behind them were greatly boosted in morale. Everyone rushed to be the first and worked bravely. They killed Esmir Weah Ba in an instant.
Yan's troops were defeated.
"Follow me, turn left, and grab the mountain!"
As soon as he saw that something was wrong, Esmil Weah Bayan knew that his side was destined to be defeated. At this moment, he no longer cared about desperately covering his own back line, which was destined to be defeated, and roared wildly.
, led the guards to leave the battlefield, and rushed towards a small rocky mountain on the left side of the battlefield. Along the way, many defeated troops saw the flag of their general, and they also rode in. After a while, it was like a snowball.
The number generally increased to more than 3,000 cavalry, but compared to the chaotic battlefield, this cavalry was not too conspicuous.
"interesting!"
Although the movements of Esmil Weah Bayan's troops were hidden, they were not very hidden to Lin Chengbin who was perched high on the mountain. He could clearly see them at a glance, but Lin Chengbin did not send any preparations.
The team went to try to stop him, but they just smiled and let him go.
"Charge into the enemy formation and cut down the flag!"
When Esmil Weah Bayan's troops fled in such a rout, the chaotic backside of the food army was completely exposed to the Tang army. This made Su Yan, who had just fought out of the rebel army, feel inspired by it.
Abnormal, he roared, and led his troops towards the enemy formation like thunder. Although there were a few Taishi archers who reacted and hurriedly shot some feather arrows, killing more than a dozen Tang Cavalry, but for
For the 8,000-strong Tang Army, such a little resistance was really not a big deal. The Tang Army did not make any tactical evasive moves and broke into the rear formation of the Food Army without any scruples.
The horizontal knives were swung in unison, instantly killing the food army like cutting rice, leaving corpses scattered all over the field.
"It's over, it's all over..."
With the rear formation of the Great Food Army collapsing, the two cavalry troops sent by it naturally lost their fighting spirit. When they were attacked by Li He and Wang Yu, they collapsed in an instant like a landslide. Everyone in the entire basin
It was the Dashi officers and soldiers running around. When he saw this, the commander of the Dashi Army, Muhan Ali Kenyon, felt his heart sink to the bottom. He completely gave up command and did not run for his life. He just rode his horse in a daze.
Standing at the center of the army, his eyes were blank but full of suffering and pain!
"Fight in and capture the flag!"
"Speed up, speed up, whoever cuts the flag first will be heavily rewarded!"
"Come, follow me, kill!"
…
Although the three Tang armies had no contact with each other, the three generals had exactly the same purpose. They did not pay attention to the scattered soldiers, and they all concentrated their main forces to rush and kill the Central Army of Dashi. There were three powerful forces.
Like a sword, it stirred up the food army and turned it into a pot of porridge.
"Father, come on!"
The food army had lost its fighting spirit, and the commander had given up command. Although there were still many troops, they could not withstand the Tang army's fierce attack like wolves and tigers. They could not even sustain a single confrontation.
The situation was completely shattered. Just as the three Tang armies were about to kill the central army, they saw Mutuso leading more than a thousand personal guards to rush out from the rebel army and grabbed Mu Tu.
Han Ali Kenyon pulled the reins of his horse, shouted loudly, and regardless of his father's reaction, he pulled it and rushed towards the left wing.
"Follow me and turn left!"
When Muhammad Ali Kenyon made such a move, the flag of the Chinese Army naturally rushed towards the left wing. This made Li He, who was staring at the flag of the Chinese Army in Dashi, so happy that he faced him and sent it to his door.
He had no intention of being modest about his military exploits. With a shout, he led his troops in a left turn and charged towards the fleeing enemy troops with diagonal thrusts like flying.
"Protect my father up the mountain, and I will stop the Tang bandits!"
Seeing Li He charging towards him like hell, Mutusuo panicked, but due to his bravery, he did not intend to give way. He roared, led the guards to break away from the fleeing group, and screamed again and again.
The ground greeted Li He's troops.
"court death!"
As soon as Mutuso dared to come to fight, Li Heke became angry. When the two horses were about to meet, he roared, waved his arm, and executed the most powerful killing move - Bajue Tianxia was already attacking quickly.
After killing him, he saw that the bright sword had broken through the distance in the space in a flash, and struck like a thunder to less than a foot away from Mutuso's chest.
"oops!"
Mutusuo never expected that Li He's sword would come so fast. He had just raised his sword above his head and was about to strike. At this moment, when he tried to parry with his sword, it was already too late. He was so frightened that he exclaimed.
With a sound, he tried his best to use an iron bridge and fell backwards.
"Die!"
Mutuso dodged very quickly, but unfortunately his reaction had already been expected by Li He. Before he could make another move, Li He roared again and kicked the horse in the belly.
The speed of the horse immediately increased a few points. In an instant, he rushed to the position parallel to Mutuso. His arm shook and he slashed out again like lightning. However, he heard a muffled sound of "Puff" and the blood was shining.
It flew up in all directions, and poor Mutuso didn't even have time to scream, before his head was chopped off by Li He with a knife. His headless body bounced a few times on the horse's back and fell into the dust.
As soon as Mutusuo died, his troops were immediately in disarray. In addition, the strength of the Tang army was far inferior to that of the pursuing Tang army. They collided with each other and dispersed. Even so, they could barely stop him.
After a brief moment of the Tang Army's pursuit, after Li He's troops dispersed the rebel army, Muhan Ali Kenyon and his party had already fled to a place not far away from the small hill occupied by Esmir Weah Bayan.
A hundred paces away.
"Protect the Great Emir, kill!"
After Esmil Weah Bayan seized a small hill, he did not rush to defend the mountain with his entire army. Instead, he divided several small troops to gather up the defeated army. This time he saw Li He raising his troops to pursue Muhan Ali.
? Kenyon and his party immediately led the gathered defeated army to charge forward, desperately blocking Li He's troops. The two armies were instantly killed. Although the Tang army gained a lot, it only took a stick of incense to defeat them.
They killed and dispersed the large food army that came to stop them, but they could no longer pursue Muhammad Ali Kenyon and others. At this time, the large food army gathered on the hill had formed a bow and arrow formation. If they wanted to blindly
A random charge would only result in the loss of troops. In desperation, Li He had no choice but to give up the idea of capturing the enemy's commander, and instead divided his troops to kill the scattered troops.
This is no longer a battle, but a massacre! Without a command and without fighting spirit, the defeated army could not withstand the back-and-forth strangulation of the Tang army. After a bloody massacre, more than 20,000 food troops died tragically on the spot, and counting the battle at the beginning
Nearly 10,000 people were killed or wounded. The number of dead among the 100,000-strong food army alone reached 30,000. Only about 10,000 remnants fled to the hills. Among the remaining, more than 20,000 people knelt down and surrendered, and more than 30,000 people
After escaping from the entrance of the basin into the vast desert, without any supplies, how many of them could really escape back to Xiye City?
"withdraw troops!"
When the battle was approaching, there was no organized food army on the entire battlefield. There were only corpses on the ground and scattered soldiers. In view of this, Lin Chengbin, who had no intention of attacking the mountain, would not do it again.
Duan Zhan, looked up at the setting sun, waved his hand, and gave the order to withdraw his troops.
"Ohh Ohh ohh……"
The commander had given the order, and the soldiers who were waiting on the side did not dare to neglect it, and hurriedly blew the call to retreat. When the Tang army officers and soldiers who were scattered around to kill the rebels heard this, they all rode back, but they did not
The entire army withdrew, but a small force was divided to move the prisoners back. Most of the troops were stationed under the hill where the Dashi Army was, completely blocking all hope of the Dashi Army's escape.
"It's over, it's all over, it's all over..."
Although he had been picked up to a safe place on the top of the mountain, Muhammad Ali Kenyon still could not wake up from the nightmare. He sat slumped on the stone with his eyes blank, muttering incessantly, his face expressionless.
Gray and pale.
"Great Emir, as long as our army can hold this mountain until the Crown Prince's army arrives, victory will still be with me!"
Muhammad Ali Kenyon was almost collapsed. Although Esmir Weah Bayan was very tired, he could only hold on and fight around, finally reorganizing the defeated army, and then dragged on
Walking back to the top of the mountain, I saw Muhammad Ali Kenyon still there in a daze. I couldn't stand it any longer, but I couldn't express my anger, so I could only suppress my dissatisfaction and get in touch with others.
Beside him, someone whispered comforting words.
"Crown Prince? Yes! When His Highness the Crown Prince arrives, our army will win, we will win!"
Mohan Ali Kenyon first looked up at Esmir Weah Bayan in confusion, and then suddenly jumped up as if he had been beaten to death, waving his hands and letting out a fanatical roar.
No matter how you look at it, it sounds like an idiot is talking in his sleep...
