Chapter 540: The Battle of the Northern Desert (6)

Qi Xinwen was taken aback when he arrived at the battlefield, the three thousand light cavalry were divided into several pieces and besieged by the desert cavalry, and they could not break out of the encirclement by rushing left and right. On the hillside a little farther away, the wolf head was exposed on the fluttering flag, Qi Xinwen's heart sank, it was actually the blue wolf army of the Badu Ministry, no wonder the combat power was amazing. How did the Blue Wolf Army end up here? The news of the attack on Ba Dai and other departments has leaked, where is the army of the Northern Desert Royal Court? I have to meet unexpectedly on the banks of the Wuena River for a decisive battle, and at this moment the Chinese army is still a hundred miles away, and the situation is not favorable to me.

Holding back the doubt in his heart, Qi Xinwen looked at the front intently, and said in a deep voice: "It's the blue wolf army of the Badu Department who came, everyone be careful." Jia Qingyuan, Zhu Yifeng, and Fang Zhizhong, the three of you each led 2,000 people to bring back the trapped robes. ”

Jia Qingyuan and others were ordered to kill the desert cavalry, and the trapped Zheng army saw the arrival of reinforcements, and their courage increased greatly. Li Man ordered people to blow the horn, Mo Cai slowly retreated, the trapped Zheng Cai was rescued, and the two armies faced each other in the north and south, with a distance of 100 steps in between.

The sun had already set, the evening breeze brought the calm before the decisive battle, Li Man stood under the banner of the blue wolf, the dim light traced his figure into a black outline, the surrounding wolf riders waited quietly, there was no anxiety before the battle, the black shadows condensed together, like mountains, such as mountains, such as mountains, inseparable, unbreakable.

Looking at the dark and condensed blue wolf army, the sound of horses neighing and kicking the grass sounded beside him, Qi Xinwen felt uneasy in his heart, the night was coming, and it was extremely unfavorable to his side. Thinking of this, Qi Xinwen ordered in a low voice: "Wu Xiong, Jin Changshui, the two of you each take a thousand people to feint from the left and right, try to drag the desert horse, and withdraw to the camp after a pillar of incense." ”

Knowing that it was a ferocious task to feint an attack on the blue wolf army with 2,000 people, Wu Xiong and Jin Changshui still did not hesitate to promise loudly, they were both captains of Zhiguo, each with a thousand subordinates, the sound of horses' hooves, and the two thousand light horsemen turned into two daggers and plunged towards the blue wolf army in the north.

The night was dark, and it was difficult to see the figure twenty steps away, Li Man heard the sound of horses' hooves, and his heart was cold, Zheng Qi actually wanted to compete with the blue wolf army at night, it was like an egg hitting a stone. Drawing his waist knife, a flash of light flashed in the night, and Li Man slowly urged the mount forward, followed closely by the blue wolf flag behind him, and then the tide of blue wolf army, rushing forward.

Qi Xinwen returned to the camp with the rest of the light horses, and simply dug a trench and a horse pit outside the camp, sprinkled iron thistles on the ground, and the knife cart stopped at the intersection of the entrance and exit. The torches were lit in the camp, Qi Xinwen stood on the high platform and looked, the shouts in the distance gradually became inaudible, the time of the three pillars of incense had passed, and Wu Xiong and Jin Changshui had not yet returned with people.

Holding the pillar on the wooden platform with his hand, Qi Xinwen's heart throbbed, Wu Xiong and Jin Changshui were both from his personal guards, and they had been fighting with him for more than ten years, but he didn't expect to fall here. There was a faint sound of horses' hooves approaching, and Qi Xinwen shouted loudly: "Open the knife array, the crossbow archers are on guard, let them in." ”

More than 100 horsemen broke into the camp, Qi Xinwen stepped off the high platform in a few steps, and saw Wu Xiong covered in blood, standing staggering with the support of two soldiers.

"Wu Xiong, where are you injured? What about Jin Changshui, what about the others, they are all trapped? Qi Xinwen asked repeatedly.

"Dashuai", Wu Xiong took a few breaths and said: "There are only these people left under me, Jin Changshui, he, he is afraid that he will be more than lucky." When he tried his best to break out of the encirclement, Wu Xiong could no longer hear the roar.

Qi Xinwen's heart was like a knife, and he waved his hand to let the soldiers help Wu Xiong is bandage and rest, and returned to the wooden platform again with heavy steps, looking in the direction of the northeast. The night wind was howling, there was a faint mournful sound of horses, but other than that, there was silence.

When the morning fog on the grassland dissipated, three Jingguan built of human heads appeared outside the Zheng military camp, Qi Xinwen dismounted in front of the Jingguan, speechless, his face seemed to have been whipped with an insoles, and he was in hot pain, and he had never been humiliated in more than 20 years in the army.

The shame of blood can only be washed away with blood, Qi Xinwen knelt heavily on the ground, gritted his teeth and said: "The hatred of the brothers Qi has been recorded, and the heads of the blue wolf army will be used to build a Jingguan, and the brothers will be seen off on the Huangquan Road." ”

The morning breeze whimpered, the green smoke swirled, and the three armies wept.

The Blue Wolf Army was stationed fifteen miles away. Although there was a small victory last night, the situation was unclear, and Li Man did not dare to launch an attack overnight, so he sent scouts to inquire about the news, and the blue wolf rode to rest. Early the next morning, the scout brought the news of Luya from the bottom of the ditch where the servants were trapped, and the Luya branch promised that as long as Li Man could rescue him, the servants would serve him as the lord of the Khan.

Li Man was overjoyed, the master's analysis was correct, this was really a good opportunity given by God, if he could defeat Zheng Jun and save the Naifu and other tribes, these tribes would naturally be grateful to Dai De for serving him as the master, with more than 300,000 troops and 100,000 soldiers joining, his strength would surpass Kunbo. Ti Zhu promised to repel Zheng Jun as the king of Khan, with the Golden Wolf Army in hand, even if Kun Bo wanted to regret himself, he was not afraid, Li Man secretly gritted his teeth, if Kun Bo wanted to regret it, he simply killed him.

"Nearly 50,000 people in the Naiservant Department are trapped at the bottom of the ditch, and there are 15,000 people in control of the strings." The scout continued to report on the incoming military information.

"How many Zheng Jun are there?"

"The number is unknown, but it is known that the light cavalry is about 30,000, judging from the banner of the Zheng army, the infantry is about 50,000 or 60,000, and there are an unknown number of auxiliaries."

Li Man frowned, the enemy is outnumbered, even if the blue wolf is brave, he will suffer in the face of so many Zheng troops.

"Where are the Badai and Saman tribes, why don't you come here for help? Will the scouts sent out to make contact be rewarded? Li Man asked.

In the grassland, sixty miles away from the Naifu Tribe, the Badai Department and the Saman Department had already learned the news of the Zheng army's attack, and all the tribes scattered in the grassland were urgently gathered together to deal with the situation. In the tent of the Khan of the Badai Tribe, Suluman and the Great Khan Jitu of the Saman Department sat in the center, and the leaders of the other dozen or so small tribes sat on both sides, and everyone discussed how to deal with the attack of the Zheng army.

Ji Tu sighed: "At the beginning, everyone decided not to make it clear when they didn't want to go to He Gaoshan, if the Zheng army attacked, they would help each other, but now that the servants are trapped, should we go to the rescue." ”

Kang Chong, the leader of the Luoba Division, sneered: "Lu Yazhi is to let ambition swallow up reason, everyone is grazing near Heluo Mountain, he took the Naifu Department to run more than a hundred miles away, who doesn't understand his mind, is to grab a bite of food from the fight of the wolves, and as a result, he has become food in the wolf's mouth, why should such a person save him." ”

Everyone nodded one after another, who can become the leader of the tribe is not shrewd, in order to preserve their own strength, most people do not agree to save the servants.

Su Lu said in a deep voice: "Prince Liman sent a letter, he brought the blue wolf army to fight against the Zheng army, last night the blue wolf rode to kill more than 3,000 Zheng light horses, and built a Beijing view on the grassland, he let us go to Huihe, together to rescue the servants." ”

Although the royal court of the Khan had not yet been established in the steppe, with the support of the Dharma King, everyone understood that the Khan would only be produced between the two brothers, Kumpo and Liman. Prince Liman came to the aid thousands of miles, which made many small tribal leaders grateful, who didn't want the future Khan Lord to be a loving and righteous person.

"Since it was Prince Liman who asked us to go, it would be better for everyone to obey orders." There was a leader of a small tribe.

The leader of another tribe said, "I want to go to you, and I have decided to lead my people over the Hegao Mountain to the west to graze their cattle." "This tribe has less than 10,000 people, only tens of thousands of cattle and sheep, and the boat is small and easy to turn around, and it only takes three days to cross the Hegao Mountain. However, large tribes like Badai and Saman could not cross the Hegao Mountain in a month.

Su Luman and Ji Tu glanced at each other, at this time, the hearts of the people could not be dispersed, otherwise Zheng Jun would not have been torn apart first. Su Luman stood up and said categorically: "The words spoken by the grassland Erlang are as unchanged as a snow-capped mountain for thousands of years, since we said that we should help each other, but the servants are trapped, we should go to the rescue, otherwise in the future, if something happens to one of us, who will keep the promise." Everyone go back and prepare, when the sun is three poles high, half of the warriors from each tribe gather in front of the big tent, let's go and meet the prince of Liman, and rescue the servants. ”

Qi Xinwen camp.

Miao Tieshan arrived in a hurry with 10,000 infantry, and when he walked into the big tent, he saw Qi Xinwen sitting behind the handsome case with a blank expression, a bowl full of millet porridge on the table, and four steamed buns next to him, and it seemed that he hadn't eaten a bite of breakfast.

Waving away the guards behind him, Miao Tieshan stepped forward and grabbed a steamed bun, took a bite of half of it, chewed it twice, took a few sips of the porridge bowl, and said with a smile: "Lao Qi, the cook in your camp is good, the steamed buns you make are chewy, borrow me for two days." ”

Qi Xinwen glanced at Miao Tieshan and said: "There are only one hundred and thirty-six people left in the two thousand light cavalry, and one thousand eight hundred and sixty-four human heads are built into three Jingguan, which makes me breathless, you come with me to make steamed buns." ”

Miao Tieshan threw the remaining half of the steamed bun in his hand on the table and scolded: "Qi Xinwen, when you and I competed, your bad teeth were knocked out by me with a punch, and your kid held back for half a year, and finally broke my two ribs." Now you are not old, you can't swing your fists, the people of the Northern Desert can use human heads to build a Beijing view, don't we, do you want me to teach you? ”

Qi Xinwen subconsciously touched his cheek, with a ruthless look on his face, stretched out his hand to grab the half of the steamed bun, and scolded in his mouth: "Miao Heizi, you knocked out my teeth, and you still want Lao Tzu to give you a cook, dream." When Lao Tzu is full, he will go to build a Beijing view with the heads of those people in the Northern Desert, and the Beijing view built by 18,000 human heads must be very spectacular. ”

Seeing Qi Xinwen eating heavily, Miao Tieshan scolded with a smile: "Beware of choking you to death." Lao Tzu brought you 10,000 infantry to strengthen the defense, the blue wolf army is coming, I am afraid that the reinforcements of the Northern Desert Royal Court will come soon, and there are also more than 100,000 people from the tribes of Badai and Saman, our combat power is insufficient, we must quickly swallow the servants, and then shrink and wait for the arrival of the Chinese army, and then fight to the death with the Northern Desert people. ”
