Chapter 800 Chapter 797 Vegetable chicken: I am really wiped out this time(2/2)
"Then as King Khan wishes, we will take those divine warriors from the Tianfang Sect as the vanguard and defeat the Tang army in one fell swoop!"
The general sent by the Creek tribe compromised. Although the Tang army on the opposite side was powerful, there was nothing to be afraid of because they had few cavalry.
Hu Guang stood in the formation, stroking his beard and couldn't help but smile. He didn't have 1,500 crossbows now, but 4,500 crossbows.
This configuration, let alone defeating these miscreants, was enough for the Southern Song Dynasty to shoot the Jin Kingdom's cavalry.
The thieves rolled up smoke and dust and rushed from three directions. They looked huge, but what they faced was an average height of 5 feet 6 inches, which is more than 1.7 meters. They were wearing heavy armor and holding crossbows.
The elite heavenly soldiers of the Central Plains armed with Mo Dao.
The arrows are like locusts, and the swords are like trained horses.
These thieves didn't have the slightest chance, and they turned from howling to howling. Not to mention penetrating the Zhou army formation, there were only a few who could even get close enough to attack Mo Dao.
Li Ji's eyes were red with anxiety, and the soldiers under his command also rushed to his side, causing his head to explode with pain.
"Marquis Yu, we are the ones appointed by the saint to accompany the general in the Western Expedition! You are the most powerful general in the army. You usually hold your head high in the sky, thinking that you are brave.
The whole army has made a great contribution today, but we are here to eat the wind and drink the sand. We haven't accomplished an inch of merit, and we haven't killed a single enemy. How can we stand in front of others in the future?"
As he spoke, this irritable guy even threw his iron helmet to the ground, panting like a bellows, hating that Li Jixie had not been able to seize the opportunity to go to the battlefield.
Li Ji was furious and went up to him, punching and kicking him, "If you think I don't want to fuck your mother-in-law, but Mr. Tiger doesn't allow it, what can you do?"
"Who said you are not allowed to get in?" Hu Guang walked to the back seriously at this time and glared at Li Jixie and the warriors under his command.
Then he said to the military judge beside him: "Li Jixi beat his colleague, remember, he will be fined half a month's salary."
Half a month's salary? Who cares?
Li Jixie quickly stepped forward and crossed his arms to Hu Guang, "The general manager has no objection to punishing the servant for a month. I just ask the general manager to let a certain young man go into battle to kill the enemy."
As soon as Hu Guang saw the atmosphere, he put his arm around Li Jixi's shoulders and pointed to him where the banner stood in the distance.
"Look at the big banner in the distance, it must be where the Guo thief is. Can someone kill him?"
Li Jixie was overjoyed. It turned out that the manager wanted to use his good steel on the blade!
"Here! Don't worry, manager, I will take the head of the Guo thief with two hundred cavalry!"
"If I don't have two hundred horses, I'll give you a hundred and fifty horses at most. The others are still useful." Hu Guang shook his head and shook his finger.
"Okay! But I have to choose the people myself." Li Jixie agreed, and then quickly went down to select the people.
The competition immediately became fierce, and everyone tried their best to be chosen.
Hu Guang smiled again, it's not that they can't give two hundred riders, but if they give two hundred riders, they won't have the fighting spirit that is about to explode now.
Li Jihe put on his cloth-covered armor, put on his iron helmet, and held a round shield and saber in his hand. As a uneducated man, two lines of Li Taibai's poems suddenly flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but chant them.
‘Zhao Ke is wearing a tassel, and Wu is covered with frost and snow. The silver saddle shines on the white horse, rustling like a shooting star.’
The athletes behind them all sang, "Kill one in ten steps, kill one in ten steps!" The fighting spirit was high.
Li Jixie shouted, "Accelerate as fast as you can at one hundred and fifty steps, don't care about anything else, just kill the general and capture the flag!"
In response to the roar, the hundred and fifty elite cavalry walked around the side of the battlefield in a very low-key manner. It was not until they were almost two hundred steps away from Guo Guangyi's banner that the Hu cavalry discovered them, and then roared towards them.
.
Arrows rained down like rain, and Li Jixie held up his round shield high. The sound of clanging could be heard endlessly. Pain felt like being beaten all over his body, and his whole body was like a hedgehog.
Li Jixie didn't care at all, and his speed increased instead of decreasing, until he rushed to more than a hundred paces. He threw down his buckler with a loud shout and took out the big bow on the side of his horse.
The soldiers behind him also drew their bows together with him, and suddenly the arrows were like locusts, and they fell in response to the string, cutting a bloody path through the enemy cavalry.
After firing five arrows in a row, Li Jixie threw away the hard bow in his hand, pulled out a pair of cooked copper maces, lifted up his face armor, and headed towards the big banner to kill. Along the way, he knocked down many horsemen and smashed them with hammers.
Horse head.
But Guo Guangyi was able to rise up in the chaos, and he did still have a group of loyal subordinates. Although the White Wolf Army wearing chain armor had average combat effectiveness, and the chain armor was completely unable to defend against the attacks of cooked copper maces, they still fought one after another.
It's blocked.
Seeing a man wearing black chainmail and a red cape being surrounded by a group of armored soldiers and leaving, Li Jixie let out a thunderous roar, danced wildly with his maces, and beat the enemy cavalry with howls in agony.
Unfortunately, there were too many people on the opposite side, and there were probably no hundreds of riders. Li Jixie only had twenty or thirty riders around him at this time. Although he tried his best to charge, he still couldn't get close.
Seeing this, Li Jixie took out another spare bow and shot three arrows at the man. He heard screams repeatedly and hit him in the back, but he did not fall off the horse.
This was God's will. Li Jixie immediately turned around and stopped chasing. He and the twenty cavalry around him went to kill the big banner on the hillside. Then he ordered his own men to accompany him and overthrew the banner. It was too thick and he chopped it down.
If so, it would probably take half a day to cut.
As the great banner collapsed, Hu Qi, who had been unable to hold on, was completely defeated.
Hu Guang personally wore armor and held a spear. The battle had reached this point. The situation was settled and there was no need for many guards. He patted his brother Hu Qilang Hu Zun on the shoulder and said.
"I thought that Li Jixie might not be able to catch the Guo thief, and it turned out to be the case today. If you bring thirty cavalry, you must bite the Guo thief, leave a mark along the way, and be sure to capture this person alive!"
Hu Zun was the son of the Hu family who returned eastward with Hu Guang, and was Hu Guang's most trustworthy brother. He immediately nodded his head, took the thirty cavalry that Hu Guang deliberately left behind, and rode lightly in pursuit.
Guo Guangyi led his remaining two hundred cavalry followers and rode hard. The warmth behind him was shot by the fierce general just now. Fortunately, he had a fine chainmail and was far away from him. He was not seriously injured.
, it just scratched the skin.
And he was able to choose to retreat so quickly because he had already thought about it. He had already thought about how to escape if he couldn't defeat him, and now he actually used it.
It's just that the feeling of using this is quite bad!
Because although we can escape now, the foundation built over more than ten years has been completely destroyed.
Now he only has one or two hundred men left, but the mercenaries he tricked and the Creek tribe who suffered great losses will not let him go.
Even the two hundred white wolf army guards around him would become unreliable.
Thinking of this, Guo Guangyi ordered his people to throw away their armor to facilitate their escape, and shouted to everyone.
"Let's go to Talas. Although the city cannot be defended, the treasures in the city's treasury are still there. Each of you will take five hundred dinars of silver.
If you are willing to follow me from now on, let's go to Saman Persia together. The Tang army is so powerful that it will definitely covet the territory of Saman Persia. His Highness Hajib Salah of the Saman Kingdom will definitely be of use to us.
If you don't want to go with me, these five hundred silver dinars can be regarded as severance pay, and it will not be in vain for our master and servant."
This was said beautifully, and it immediately stabilized the military's morale, which was already a little shaken. The guards around him expressed that they would continue to follow King Khan.
After successfully crossing a mountain ridge, Guo Guangyi finally felt better, because after passing this mountain ridge and then passing through a canyon, he could reach Talas City.
Although there were twenty or thirty riders behind them all the time, Guo Guangyi was not impatient.
There are nearly 50,000 people to the east of Hu Shuicheng. Those Tang'er only have 7,000 or 8,000 people. Let alone killing them, it would take a long time to catch them. As long as there is no army to chase them now, he can escape.
But just when he was about to escape, Guo Guangyi suddenly felt the ground shaking, and the sound of horse hooves came from the front. The ambitious man felt like he was struck by lightning, and he screamed and almost fell off his horse.
I saw groups of cavalry appearing in the canyon in the distance. They were like a swarm of bees leaving their nest, and soon they were everywhere.
The leading cavalrymen all had small golden sun and moon flags on a silver-white background on their backs, making them look like the original army.
Lu Sanlang's younger brother Lu Dingbang rode at the front. This army was Bai Congxin's 40,000 elite cavalry.
They arrived at Talas City two days ago and quickly captured it. After that, they learned about Guo Guangyi's army in Hu Shuicheng, so they came all night again.
Seeing a small cavalry team of one or two hundred people in front of him, Lu Dingbang thought it was Guo's scouting team, and immediately ordered his subordinate Yiqi to surround and kill them.
Hu Zun saw it in the distance, quickly threw away his weapon, and ran forward with a silver-white gold sun and moon flag, shouting at the top of his lungs: "Don't hurt your life! Don't hurt your life!"
