There is no problem with the loyalty of these Kunlun slaves, this is their good quality. Another thing to train is their fierce style, to abandon the innate cowardice of their character. For this reason, Liu Jun once did a very outrageous thing, that is, after a large number of Kunlun slaves were transported to Jiannan, Liu Jun once detained them in a sealed place in a group of several people, told them that only one of them could live, and forced them to kill each other. The originally cowardly Kunlun slaves were forced to kill each other, and the winner was naturally the strongest among them.

At that time, only 800 of the more than 3,000 Kunlun slaves survived, and each of these 800 people had one or more lives at hand, and there was no turning back. And this method gets not only brave people, but also many guys with good IQs, who are not as strong as they are, but still survive, which is also the quality of a good soldier.

Of course, this method was later learned by Wang Yuan and immediately stopped. That time, Wang Yuan also taught Liu Jun a hard lesson, and beat Liu Jun's body with rattan. That was also the only time Wang Yuan punished Liu Jun like this. But I have to say that the Kunlun slaves selected by Liu Jun in that way do have high quality, which is very different from ordinary Kunlun slaves.

Under the ferocious onslaught of the Kunlun Nu Corps, the number of casualties of the Hui cavalry was huge. In a way, Kunlun Nu is even more difficult than the elephant cavalry just now. These guys don't make any sense at all, and their fierce way of sending the Hui cavalry has never seen it at all. But fortunately, the Hui cavalry has a large number, and at this moment, only the advantage of numbers can resist this fierce soldier and horse.

Countless Hui cavalry rushed forward one after another, using the tactics of ants gnawing elephants and the tactics of exchanging several people for one person and launched a bloody battle with the Kunlun Nu cavalry. For every Kunlun Nu cavalry killed, the Hui cavalry paid a price of more than four people. While the Kunlun Nu cavalry continued to fall off their horses, more Hui cavalry fell in a pool of blood.

On the battlefield, which was just dozens of steps long and about two miles wide between the two sides, the corpses of men and horses were piled up, and it was simply a sea of corpses and blood. At the beginning of the war, the bloody battle of just a few hours was as bloody as almost any battle that anyone had ever experienced. The number of dead and wounded on both sides was also extremely high. The Hui army was particularly miserable, with nearly forty percent of the 100,000 cavalry being killed along the way. It's not easy for the Shence Army to do so. The infantry lost nearly 5,000 men, the light and heavy cavalry suffered more than 10,000 casualties, the precious elephant cavalry lost dozens of heads, and the Shenwei artillery tiger squat cannon also lost 50 or 60 guns.

But both sides obviously have no intention of admitting defeat and have no intention of retreating. Everyone understands that this war can only be won and not defeated, and no one wants to take a step back until the last moment.

The east is white, and the sky is gradually brightening. Before you know it, the fighting has been going on all night. Under the hazy moonlit night, there was no intuitive sense of the severity of the battle, but after dawn, the situation on the entire battlefield was fully visible, and everyone knew what kind of scene they were in.

The battlefield in front of me has become a red plain. The flesh and mud on the ground were mixed together, and the hooves of the horses were stirred and trampled to and fro, forming piles of red flesh and mud wrapped in corpses. Countless mutilated corpses were trampled by the war horses of both sides, unconsciously kicked around, wrapped in wet blood and mud like rice dumplings. Above the sky, the black shadows of countless vultures hovered in the air, attracted by the smell of blood, waiting for an opportunity to feast. In the distance, in the wilderness, a large herd of Gobi jackals, also attracted by the smell of blood, roamed and howled in the distance, salivating and waiting for the opportunity to enjoy flesh and blood.

The whole scene, even Wang Yuan, who has experienced a hundred battles and has seen countless tragic scenes, feels disgusting. And Cui Ruoyu, who was standing on the mountain bag in the south with Wang Yuan, had already vomited so much that she even vomited bile.

"Marshal, the Kunlun Nu cavalry has all been exhausted, and the light cavalry is afraid that it will be difficult to stop the onslaught of the Hui people, should we use the last resort." Zhao Qing's eyes were blood-red, and he asked with his fists.

Wang Yuan nodded slightly. His brow furrowed slightly. He didn't expect his opponent to be so difficult, and he didn't expect the Hui people to be so brave. Under normal circumstances, after experiencing several blocks that he has carefully prepared, and with such heavy casualties, the opponent should have already developed cowardice. But apparently, the Uighurs did not do so. Instead, they traded their superiority in strength for their lives. They knew that they had twice as many cavalry as they were, so they had to take advantage of that to achieve victory.

"It seems that the last resort is the only way to go, otherwise they don't know what despair is. The order was given, the pro-guard battalion was assembled, and the passage below was assembled. ”

"Yes." Zhao Qing and Tan Ping excitedly agreed, and the two of them rushed down the gravel hillside. A moment later, the cavalry of the 3,000 Guards Battalion in the passage below quickly assembled.

Wang Yuan turned his head to look at Gongsun Lan, who had a cold face beside him, and said in a deep voice, "Cousin, are you ready?" It's time for us to play. ”

Gongsun Lan didn't speak, only reached out and grabbed the hilt of the sword at his waist. There was no need to answer, Wang Yuan also knew that she was ready to kill the enemy.

Wang Yuan looked at Cui Ruoyu beside him, who was pale and covering his nose with tears in his eyes, retching, and said with a smile: "Ruoyu, you better go back to the camp, go back to the big tent, light the incense, maybe you can't smell these smells." ”

Cui Ruoyu shook her head stubbornly and said weakly: "No, I'm just standing here, I'm going to watch you kill the enemy." I can't help, but I can cheer me on. ”

Wang Yuan smiled: "Don't shout, the bigger your mouth opens, the more stinky your breath will be, and the more you will vomit." Quietly watch, see how we kill the enemy. By the way, remember to cover your ears, I'm afraid there will be a lot of movement for a while. ”

Cui Ruoyu didn't know what he meant, and when he was hesitating, Wang Yuan had already walked along the hillside with Gongsun Lan's hand.

At the bottom of the hillside, the guard battalion had all been assembled. Zhao Qing Tan Ping, who came from the countermeasures, commanded: "You two lead 1,500 people to the western passage, and I will personally command here." ”

Zhao Qing Tan Ping responded in a deep voice, and in the midst of shouting, he galloped away with 1,500 personal guard cavalry. Wang Yuan and Gongsun Lan took the reins of their horses from the hands of their guards, pulled out the sword at their waists, waved their hands forward, and said, "Wait for you to charge with this commander and teach them to taste the great killing weapon of my divine army." Kill! ”

"Kill!" The guards shouted in unison, followed the mounts of Wang Yuan and Gongsun Lan, and rushed forward to the battlefield.

……

Under the city of Pizhou, after dawn, a siege battle also kicked off. Although Li Pu and Li Jian secretly fled in the middle of the night, Li Hui was angry and frightened at the same time. But the facts are in front of him, and Li Heng understands that he has no way out, so he can only fight hard.

However, last night, King Heng killed his wife and son and hung himself to death, and then the news that King Yi and King Ying secretly fled has spread throughout the army, and the more than 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city have long been panicked and have no morale. When Li Guangbi led his troops and horses to officially launch the siege of the city within half an hour, the defenders of Pizhou were already difficult to support.

Li Heng ran on the city wall with a hoarse voice, threatening and pleading to let the soldiers defend the city wall to the death, and even killed several ineffective generals, and personally killed dozens of ordinary people to set an example, but still failed to prevent the fate of Pizhou from being broken.

At three o'clock in the siege, the southeast corner of the southern wall was breached. After the meal, the gates of the city were opened by the car hole. Just after tea time, news came from Beicheng. The defenders of the North City Gate opened the door to meet the enemy, and introduced another group of imperial soldiers and horses outside the North City who were also attacking into the city.

Li Heng stood on the city tower with a pale face, looking at the imperial soldiers and horses who flocked into the city, looking at the soldiers who were constantly killing on both sides of the city wall, watching the soldiers under his command throw down their weapons and surrender, and watching the people turn against each other and kill in the direction of the city tower with the other party's soldiers and horses, Li Heng cried.

It wasn't until this moment that the dream in Li Heng's heart was truly shattered into pieces of rubble. He had a beautiful vision, but now, he realized that it was just a dream. In my dreams, I dreamed countless times that I was sitting on the splendid hall and sitting on the scene of the Tang Dynasty. He also confidently believed that he would lead the army to fight a hundred responses, and Li Mao would be finished soon. But everything is the opposite of what was imagined, and the reality is so cruel.

At this time, Li Heng also faintly realized that Wang Yuan's support for him may be harboring evil intentions. I may be too incompetent to see the situation unfolding. But Wang Yuan definitely wouldn't be unaware of the evolution of the situation, maybe he already knew that he would have today, but he didn't stop himself, but instead instigated and supported himself, and let the huge dream in his heart swell and swell until it burst.

"Wang Yuan, you traitor, are you really as they say, are you instigating my Li family's heirs to kill each other? Do you really have ulterior motives? Li Heng sighed softly.

But now, these things are meaningless, and all I should think about is how to get out and how to escape. There are soldiers and horses of the imperial court on all sides, and if they fall into the hands of Li Mao, the end must be miserable.

"Lord Feng, run away, if you don't escape, it's too late. Take off your armor, disguise yourself as a civilian, and maybe get out of the mix. Deputy General Qiao Shanyang's words woke Li Heng from his confusion, he looked around and found that only Qiao Shanyang and a dozen guards were left beside him, and the rest of the guards and horses didn't know where they went.

"Yes, yes, take off my armor and change my clothes quickly, let's escape. Where are we going to run? Li Heng said in a trembling voice.

Qiao Shanyang pointed to the chaotic crowd under the city and said, "Let's go down to the city tower and blend in with the crowd, so that we can have a chance to escape." ”

"Good, good. I'll listen to you. Li Heng shook his body, took off his armor, and discarded his blade. With the support of Qiao Shanyang, the two of them climbed down the stairs on the inside of the city tower, blended into the chaotic crowd of people running under the city, and headed towards the streets of the city.

The gates of the city opened, and a group of soldiers and horses in bright armor surrounded a handsome general galloping into the city. Li Heng glanced at the general, and was so frightened that he hurriedly buried his head and hid by Qiao Shanyang's side with a hunched body. That general was none other than Li Guangbi. Li Guangbi knows himself, and he must not let Li Guangbi discover himself.

Li Guangbi rode his horse in high spirits and stood inside the city gate, and shouted loudly with full of anger: "Where is Li Heng? Did you catch it? The order went down, and whoever caught Li Heng was rewarded with 200,000 yuan and promoted to three levels. ”

Li Heng listened to it sincerely, pressed his body lower, and ran to the street corner with the people. Suddenly, a voice beside him rang out at the top of his lungs.

"Li Heng is here, I caught him. I will atone for my sins and ask for forgiveness. ”

Li Heng was so frightened that he almost fell, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Qiao Shanyang holding his arm tightly with one hand, waving his arm loudly, waving it towards Li Guangbi and his personal guards.

"Qiao Shanyang, why are you like this?" Li Heng shouted in a trembling voice.

"Lord Feng, this posture, you can't escape anyway. Left and right is death, why not be merciful, let me Qiao Shanyang get some benefits, and it will not be in vain for me to be born and die with you. ”

"You ...... thief!" Li Heng almost spurted blood, scolding and tearing his arm apart, but Qiao Shanyang wrapped around his arm like an octopus, so that he couldn't get out at all.

The horse's hooves are hurrying, and the shadows block out the sun. Li Heng raised his head and saw Li Guangbi's smiling face.

……

When the city of Pizhou was broken, on the Gobi Desert of Fengzhou, the bloody battle that had lasted for nearly seven hours had just arrived.

Wang Yuan led more than 3,000 cavalry from his personal guard battalion to the bloody Shura Field in front from the rear. Originally, in a big war of this scale, it was not yet the turn to mobilize the pro-guard battalion. Although Wang Yuan likes to personally go into battle to kill the enemy, in a big battle of this scale, Wang Yuan also understands that if he rushes into danger, once he loses, it will lead to a complete collapse.

However, this battle has been going on for so long since last night, and all the means previously arranged have failed to deter the opponent, and the large number of casualties has not made the opponent give up the battle. This made the whole war evolve in the direction of non-stop. It seems that Guli Peiluo is determined to split a victory, and for this reason he no longer cares about the losses he suffers. But for Wang Yuan, a large amount of battle damage was unacceptable. The casualties of soldiers and horses have approached more than 20,000 people, which is already the limit that Wang Yuan can bear. Wang Yuan could not tolerate this situation to continue. The entire army of the Shence Army is elite, and almost every soldier is a veteran of a hundred battles, Wang Yuan never wants these elite soldiers and horses to exchange their lives with the Hui people here. After this battle, there are even greater troubles waiting for you, and there is too much loss of soldiers and horses, which is also a fatal consequence.

In view of this, Wang Yuan could have continued to let the cavalry and infantry continue to wear down the opponent on the mountain road between the two mountain packs, and find the best time to attack. But now, he decided to sacrifice the big killer weapon in his hand in advance. He must settle the fight as quickly as possible and force his opponent to collapse.

There are more than 3,000 cavalry in the personal guard battalion, and the equipment is naturally the most sophisticated, and they are the only ones who are equipped with the latest developed weapons of mass destruction. That's what the guards call the big turnip.**. That was Wang Yuan's last hand. As a last resort, Wang Yuan is unwilling to sacrifice his hole cards. It's not that Wang Yuan is reluctant to use the thousands of precious grenades in the army. bullets, but because although these things have been tested many times, they are still the first time they have been used on the battlefield, and they are also the first time they have been used in actual combat, and the effect is unknown. Its instability can cause many unexpected variables. The second is because this is the thousands of ** that took months of work to be produced, and if you run out easily, you will lose this hole card that can change the tide of the battle. After this battle, the army will probably immediately move south, and perhaps another major battle will soon be encountered, and there will be no replenishment of supplies. In the case that the tiger squat cannon will be scrapped after this battle, Wang Yuan still thinks that he can leave the grenade. Play this hole card to deal with the next difficult situation.

But now, all these concerns and ideas are unrealistic. At this moment, if you don't do your best, I'm afraid that even the opponent in front of you will not be able to defeat. Wang Yuan admits that he underestimated the toughness and ferocity of his opponent. Although he repeatedly warned others that the 100,000 cavalry of Guli Peiluo was not easy to deal with, in his bones, Wang Yuan had more confidence in the Shence Army, which gave rise to some feelings of underestimating the enemy. At this point in the war, this feeling has long been thrown out of the clouds, and there is only respect for the opponent.

The cavalry of the personal guard battalion rushed to the rear of the battlefield at a very fast speed, facing the soldiers and horses of the retreating elephant cavalry, and further forward, they met the Kunlun Nu cavalry who retreated after the bloodbath. When encountering elephant cavalry, there was nothing particularly shocking about these elephant horsemen except that they were tired. But at this moment, when encountering the Kunlun Nu cavalry who returned from the bloody battle, the scene was worrying. More than 3,000 Kunlun Nu cavalry soldiers met their opponents in two passages in two ways, and there were more than 1,500 people on one side. But now, the retreating Kunlun Nu Corps on the east side that Wang Yuan and the others encountered was only a maximum of 400 people left. In other words, the Kunlun Nu cavalry on the eastern side of the passage lost more than a thousand people in the battle just now. This is a tragic situation here, and the situation on the west side must not be too good. The entire Kunlun Nu cavalry battalion, which was painstakingly managed by more than 3,000 people, will lose more than sixty percent of its manpower in this battle.

There is an unwritten rule in the Shence Army, each soldier and horse must not fight all the soldiers and horses, and always leave some seeds to continue the construction of this soldier and horse. It is precisely because of this that the more than 400 horsemen in front of them were able to retreat. But in fact, these black slaves were all wounded, some had a few arrows stuck in their bodies, some had broken arms, and some had big holes in their bodies. It can be seen that the previous battle was fierce.

Wang Yuan only glanced at the Kunlun slaves who were slowly retreating, the expression on his face became more serious, and his teeth bit his lower lip tightly. This kind of expression has rarely been seen on Wang Yuan's face, and those who are familiar with Wang Yuan know that Dashuai is already on the verge of outburst, and Dashuai at this time is the most terrifying
