Chapter 249: Trampling on Ourselves
Although Lan Ziyi said that the relieved Tao Zhuhu still raised his head to the sky and sighed.
Lan Ziyi knew that Tao Zhuhu was whipped in public by Zhang Wang last night, which was too embarrassing, and Zhang Wang also asked Tao Zhuhu to make meritorious service today, Tao Zhuhu wanted to use this battle to kill Lei Youde today to prove to the whole camp that he was not whipped last night because of cowardice. As a result, the peach chased the tiger all the way, the horsepower ran out, and finally robbed Lei Youde Guangai, but he pounced, how should he explain to the captain after today's battle?
Lan Ziyi originally wanted Tao Zhuhu not to worry, after the war today, Lan Ziyi would definitely intercede for Tao Zhuhu in Zhangwang, Zhang Wang didn't necessarily have to ask for Tao Zhuhu's life. But Tao Zhuhu has been fighting in Beizhen with Lan Qianzhen for a long time, known as the fierce general of Beizhen, and his reputation is outside, how can he let Lan Ziyi go out to fight for him?
Lan Ziyi thought about it and sighed, but didn't speak, so that Tao Zhuhu could be quiet alone.
At this time, Zhang Yanwu, who had been lining up next to Lan Ziyi, took off his helmet, turned his head and said to Lan Ziyi:
"We must get out of here, there are hundreds of thousands of demon thieves behind us who are attacking in this direction, if we don't go, we will be trampled to death!"
Lan Ziyi heard Zhang Yanwu's words, turned around and looked back.
Zhang Yanwu is right, the place where Lan Ziyi and the others just broke through the crown is already very dangerous.
When Lan Ziyi and they launched the charge just now, it was already the time when the attack of the demon thief recruits reached the limit, these newly attached to the demon thieves lacked training, had no armor, and it was impossible to use any reincarnation path to deceive people after Lei Youde went down, these recruits only had one advantage left in addition to the number of people. After their offensive was frustrated, and their morale and formation collapsed at the same time, even their last advantage became a disadvantage.
As the saying goes, one husband hides in the wild, and a thousand husbands are chestnut. Although the main force of the officers and troops chasing and attacking the demon thieves was only more than 30,000 people, which was simply not enough compared to the demon thieves, the more than 30,000 were well-trained, handsome and high-spirited, and they were bravely moving forward under the same order, and the combat effectiveness they could exert was definitely not something that the hundreds of thousands of rabble running around in front of them could resist. In front of the officers and soldiers who formed a formation, the hundreds of thousands of demon thief recruits were hundreds of thousands of individual people, and there was no threat at all.
After the queue, the officers and soldiers who marched into the wall were a line of life and death composed of knives, guns, swords and halberds, as long as the thieves who left their butts to the officers and soldiers did not escape in time, the lances and spears behind them would pierce them, and the demon thieves who were lucky enough to escape the long-handled attack would be slashed by the waist knife and saber that caught up.
Qi Rongxun, who had been besieged by demon thieves before, and the mixed troops under his command also regrouped under Zhang Wang's order to join the attack line of the official army. Those red-eyed long knife hands and long lance hands who had just fought with the demon thieves finally managed to bet on the crazy attack of the demon thieves, and finally could slash the enemy just now, how could they not work hard at this time, this group of desperate guys relied on their wings to be covered by officers and army allies, desperately slashing in the middle of the front, and the long knives of the Royal Forest Army were amazingly powerful, which made them everywhere they passed were stumps and broken arms, and there were corpses everywhere.
Looking at today's formation, with the advantage of terrain and the limited strength of the official army to block the horn mouth, it is impossible for the demon thief to escape from both sides, only there is a gap there for the demon thief who can escape from there, and as the official army advances, the exit over there is about to be blocked by the official army.
Hundreds of thousands of fleeing demon thieves converged into a torrent, at first it was only moving backwards, but after a while, the crowd lost control under the killing of the official army, when the fear spread to all the bandits, the individuals in the crowd lost the ability to judge, they could only instinctively drive to the direction of the crowd with the surrounding crowd, as if the crowd had a unified consciousness, and everyone in the crowd lost their minds. While those in the middle of the crowd could not see the carnage around them, they were more frightened than those who faced the carnage directly because their surroundings were closed off and could not receive information. They are numerous, they are powerful and blind, they become the core driving force of the crowd and they don't know what they are doing.
Originally, those veterans of Lei Youde were a group of elites who had survived a hundred battles, and after many years of life and death, they had high morale, were well-trained, and were fierce opponents of the officers and soldiers, and they also had the ability to resist the pressure caused by the retreat of their recruits, and they were all outnumbered, and their advantages were very obvious.
But the problem is that this group of elites failed to organize a complete defensive front before their cannon fodder collapsed, and what is even worse is that when this group of guys wanted to make up for their mistakes, Lan Ziyi and the Tiefutu led by him crushed up, trampling on the defense line they had painstakingly supported.
Although Lan Ziyi and the soldiers around him did not stop the horses' hooves, their speed slowed down significantly after breaking the crown cover, which of course had the reason why Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhuhu exchanged military information, but more importantly, the soldiers' horses were tired after a round of charges.
If these deserters have any combat power to hurt Lan Ziyi and his Tiefutu, it is impossible, but with the arrival of the flow of people, the narrow place here will only become more and more crowded, and there has already been a stampede behind Lan Ziyi, if it is completely blocked here, then Lan Ziyi and his thousand iron horsemen will become a living target.
Lan Ziyi looked at the chaotic scene behind him and nodded in agreement with Zhang Yanwudao:
"What Zhang Senjun said is true, we must get out of here. Where does Zhang think it's good to go? ”
When Zhang Yanwu heard this, he wanted to reach out and point, but because he only had one hand left, he had no choice but to raise his chin and point to the woods and say:
"Let's go that way, take a detour west from the woods, and return to the brigade."
Lan Ziyi followed Zhang Yanwu's direction and glanced into the forest to the south, where a large number of demon thieves were also fleeing.
Lan Ziyi only glanced at it, then turned back to Zhang Yanwu and nodded:
"Just do what Zhang Senjun said."
Tao Zhuhu, who returned to the team from the front, heard Lan Ziyi say that he was going to leave, his face was full of unwillingness, and he hurriedly said to Lan Ziyi:
"Young master, the captain asked us to destroy the demon thief, but now that the demon thief has not been destroyed, how can we leave?"
Lan Ziyi and Zhang Yanwu had already begun to give orders to the surrounding sergeants to turn around at this time, and after hearing Tao Zhuhu's words, he replied:
"There are only a thousand of us, and it is impossible to destroy the demon thieves, and the remaining demon thieves will kill each other to death, so there is no need for us to wade into this troubled water."
Tao Zhuhu looked at the demon thieves who had trampled on the ground around him, and knew that Lan Ziyi was right, but he still insisted:
"But young master, Lei Youde has not been destroyed, there are still two crowns of Lei Youde on the battlefield, and there is one after the demon thief crowd, if we are Lei Youde is there, then wouldn't we miss the opportunity if we go like this? Let's go and rob it again. ”
Lan Ziyi shook his head and said:
"The first time we fought with Lei Youde after we left Beijing, we used the tactic of cavalry decapitation, how could Lei Youde be smart and fall twice in the same pit? In Shouchun, Lei Youde has already seen through our tactics, and specially set up a fake crown, this time Lei Youde is even more flowering on the tree, and the flag is everywhere, in my opinion, Lei Youde is not under the crown at all, he must be hiding very secretly, and he is also rushing in vain, let's go. ”
Tao Zhuhu was still unwilling, he said in a serious tone:
"Wei Hou, the entrance of the demon thief is narrow, with our troops, we can completely block the retreat of the demon thief, we can kill it now and block the demon thief there, and we can be annihilated here."
Lan Ziyi looked at Tao Zhuhu and sighed, and said:
"Big brother! Lei Youde said that there are hundreds of thousands of demon thieves, if there is no comparable strength we will not be able to wipe them out, Taiwei used skillful strength to defeat the demon thief today, this is already the biggest victory that our army can achieve, if we talk to the heart to seal the way back of the demon thief there, once the demon thief has no way to retreat, then we will fight to the death today. Today's terrain surrounds us on both sides of the demon thief, and our army itself plugs one side, which is the gap in the encirclement of the three ques, which cannot be plugged. ”
Saying that, Lan Ziyi shouted loudly and ordered the troops to pull out, and he himself patted Tao Zhuhu's arm and said:
"Big brother, I know that you are eager to make meritorious contributions today, but the situation is compelling, even if you are unwilling, you can't take risks, if you let your anger overwhelm your head, how can you lead troops to be a general?"
Tao Zhuhu himself actually knew where to go now, he just couldn't accept that he would return in vain, and after hearing Lan Ziyi's words, he had to sigh and urge the horse to go with Lan Ziyi. 桃淚虎 says:
"It's all up to the young master."
Zhang Yanwu laughed when he saw Lan Ziyi and Tao Zhuhu urging the horse back to the team, and he said:
"Wei Hou has a deep relationship with his brother with a different surname, and he doesn't get angry for a long time after saying it so bitterly. If you delay us like this, we will all be blocked by the demon thieves. “
Lan Ziyi also felt that there were many people next to him, he and the soldiers brandished their swords and began to kill the thieves who stood in the way along the road, and heard Zhang Yanwu tease Lan Ziyi and said:
"I advise you to wear a helmet when you join the army, you can use it with one hand, and stop playing with your life."
Zhang Yanwu laughed again, put on his helmet and said:
"Then I really thank Wei Hou for his care."
Then the group rushed to the edge of the woods before they were blocked by the thieves, and the soldiers threw away all the lances they were holding before entering the forest, because if they entered the forest with the lance, they would definitely be blocked by branches.
As soon as Lan Ziyi and the soldiers entered the woods, the flow of people behind them became more dense, and if they retreated a little later, they would definitely be blocked.
