Chapter Seventy-One: A Turning Point
A Donghu sergeant climbed into the carriage and jumped down and landed behind Yun Yue. Holding a long sword and about to stab Yun Yue, a white figure pounced on him with a roar. The sharp fangs grabbed his throat in one bite, and Xiaobai instinctively shook his head from side to side. A pair of leopard claws were still scratching at the man's body, and it only took a few sharp claws to cut the man's belly open. The claws, which were still gouging, stirred up the intestines of the Donghu soldiers.
No sooner had the other guy jumped off than he was shot through the head with a crossbow arrow. Yun Yue turned around in shock, it turned out that Princess Zhang Jia was holding a crossbow arrow. The two maids next to him were working together to wind another crossbow arrow.
When I looked up, the Qin sergeant who was standing on the carriage and guarding was gone. The carriage was shaking, and it was clear that many people were shaking desperately in an attempt to overturn the carriage.
"Kill it, get rid of the scraps." Yun Yue waved his hand, drew out his battle knife, and was about to rush out. But he was dragged by Shao Si Ming, "It's useless for you to go." Although Shao Si Ming's words hurt Yun Yue's self-esteem, the reality is that Shao Si Ming is much more useful than Yun Yue.
Yuji also rushed out with his glittering bronze sword, his body as light as a ghost. A long sword kept slashing through the necks of the Donghu people. In the light of the fire, splattered blood flew everywhere.
Not to be outdone, Shao Si Ming slashed horizontally and vertically with a war knife. It was as if a ball of light was running over among the Donghu people, and the stumps and severed arms flew together with the blood and water, and the sound of the "clanging bell" blade being cut kept coming, which looked ten times more spectacular than Yuji's handwriting.
The more than 30 Donghu soldiers who rushed up to besiege the carriage were crushed by the two masters. There were heavy casualties, and those who were not killed ran like rabbits. On the grassland, I have never seen such a fierce man.
Seeing the retreat of the enemy, the two did not dare to delay. Under the cover of the sword and shield hands, they quickly retreated. Just a moment. There were many arrows stuck in the shields.
A miserable scream rang out, and it turned out to be another carriage, and a Qin sergeant was caught in a rope. Before he could cut the rope, he was torn off the carriage by more than a dozen big men, and his body had just touched the ground. The sword slashed at his body, and almost instantly he was chopped into meat sauce. Yun Yue's scalp tingled when she saw this scene. The Donghu people live as nomads. Mixed on the grassland all year round, the horse is familiar with this hand. If this continues, there will not be enough hundreds of people to fill the wagon.
"Come down, get out of the carriage. Prepare your crossbow! Yun Yue hurriedly gave a loud order. It was just a matter of talking, and more than a dozen Qin soldiers were dragged down and hacked to death.
Although surprised by Yun Yue's order, the Qin sergeant still jumped out of the carriage. Ceded the entire front to the Donghu people, who had just climbed into the carriage. was shot down by a rain of arrows, and the Donghu people did not hesitate to use bows and arrows to shoot at the Qin army.
Although bows and arrows have a higher rate of fire than crossbow arrows, after all, bows and arrows are less powerful than crossbow arrows. The Qin army also has the tenacious Yun family armor to protect themselves. Under the shooting, the Donghu people suffered a lot of losses.
The carriage in front of the battle kept shaking, and the first carriage of "boom" was overturned to the ground. Then another carriage was flipped to the ground, almost at the same time as it hit the ground. Rows of crossbow arrows were fired at the Donghu people who were celebrating, and the sound of dense crossbow strings rang out. Before the Donghu people could react, a large piece fell.
A jar of Tanyun family spirits was smashed on the carriage, and the mellow aroma of wine filled the nostrils with the pungent smell of blood. Rockets were fired on it, and the wagons became flaming torches.
This is a posture that can't be smashed, and at this time, Yun Yue is also out of the way. Horse-drawn carriages were generally tall. I can burn it for a long time. Now the delay is a while, and the soldiers are exhausted after the fierce battle. Although the Qin army killed and wounded many Donghu people. But there were also heavy casualties. Something like white-knuckle fighting has always been to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. Outside, there were dark shadows, and the eyes of the Donghu people reflected the firelight, looking like hungry wolves in the darkness, ready to rush in at any time and tear the Qin army to pieces.
The fire prevented the hand-to-hand combat. But it can't block the two sides from firing. Without the cover of the carriage, the Qin army could only carry the shield behind them, wind the crossbow arrows with their backs, and then turn around and shoot.
Yun Yue hurriedly counted the number of people, but it was only half an hour of fighting. More than half of the Qin army suffered casualties, and now they can take up arms to fight. Less than half. On the top of the high slope, the cries of women and children and the restless roars of cows and horses resounded. Obviously, what's going on here can be seen over there.
You can't imagine the scene after those carriages are finished, the three hundred Qin troops are simply not enough for a single charge. So many people poured up, and stepping on it could also trample the Qin army to death.
The Donghu people and the Qin army stopped firing at each other, because the smoke from the fire could not see the target on the opposite side at all. The tired Qin army can finally take a rest. Many people sat on the ground, gasping for air. More people began to sob, and today was probably the last night of their lives. Many people here will not be able to see the rising sun tomorrow.
No! Morale is so low, and there is no one to fight this battle. Although Yun Yue knew that resistance was futile, she couldn't just be caught.
"Master Hou, we tied a wooden raft. You're on the raft! Walked up to Yun Yue and whispered.
Yun Yue looked at Zheng Bin with wide eyes, she didn't expect this kid to be so thoughtful. When it was done, Yun Yue didn't know. Looking down curiously, sure enough, there was a wooden raft by the river. It was made of wood from oxen and was swinging with the river.
No wonder Yun Yue was the only one to go on the wooden raft, this wooden raft was not much bigger than a table. Yun Yue estimated that she would have to lie on it to barely wade into the water.
"Do you mean that Ben Hou fled alone, leaving you here to be slaughtered by the Donghu people?" Yun Yue looked at Zheng Bin's eyes and said.
"Master Hou, the battle has been fought like this. The Donghu people rushed up, and it was our end. It's not a pity for the villain to die, but tens of thousands of Pingliang people have to rely on you to take care of it. As long as you live, you will naturally one day avenge the villain. Master Hou, while no one is paying attention, you should go. Zheng Bin was in a hurry, don't look at those carriages burning. It won't be long before it will go out and turn into a pile of black coke.
"Are you telling me to abandon you and become a coward who escapes, leaving his subordinates, old men, and children to be slaughtered by aliens? If I do this, how will I lead the army in the future, and how will I stand in the world. Midnight dreams of how I will face the weeping spirits of the dead underground. ”
"Master Hou......!"
"Don't say it, today I, Yun Yuesheng, was born with everyone. Die, everyone will also die together. Even if the Donghu people have the ability, if they want to kill Lao Tzu, they have to pay the price. Let's earn one by killing two today, and killing one is enough! Yun Yue patted Zheng Bin's shoulder.
"Old Qin, restore my rivers and mountains, blood will not be drained, and death will not be truce. Old Qin, restore my rivers and mountains, blood will not be drained, and death will not be truce. There is Daqin in the west, such as the Japanese side is born, the country hates for a hundred years, and the sea is difficult to peace. The world is in turmoil, how to get Kangning, Qin has a sharp man, who competes with him. Yun Yue suddenly chanted loudly.
Sergeant Qin was still listening at first, after listening to it once. They also began to sing along, and at first it was just a few people chanting quietly. Later, it gradually developed into a majestic and magnificent movement, and these Qin troops were all three Qin soldiers. The blood of the old Qin people is burning in their bodies at this moment, and the Qin people are suffering. I was not afraid to fight against Rong Di, and I was not afraid to fight against the Huns. I still have no fear of fighting with the six countries of the East, although today the enemy is several times more than my own. But how can the old Qin people be greedy for life and afraid of death.
The soldiers began to prepare their armor and blades, and replaced their crossbows with new strings, preparing for the final battle to the death. Even if you die on the battlefield, you can't disgrace the glory of your ancestors.
The fire in the carriage gradually weakened, and the Donghu people on the opposite side made a noise again. The moon had climbed into the middle of the sky, and the night was already halfway over. The later you kill these Qin troops, the less time you have left for yourself to loot.
Yun Yue and the Qin soldiers also stood up, forming a military formation to prepare to resist the final impact.
"Master Hou, you ...... listen!" Zheng Bin's eyes suddenly lit up. Prick up your ears and listen carefully, the Donghu people are very noisy. It didn't look like he was going to attack, but it looked like his own people were making trouble. In the dark, no matter what Donghu language could not understand, it was heard. I asked Wusun Ji Chang, but I didn't understand this product.
"Master Hou! It seems that they are messing up on their own! Zheng Bin pointed to the shadowy crowd in the dark, the moonlight was not bright. But he can still see the situation in the distance clearly through the moonlight. A black-armored cavalry rushed into the Donghu army's formation, rushing from the back to the end. The wielded sabers slashed horizontally and vertically, and even the most fierce Donghu people were rarely the sum of the first battle.
"It's General Ao, it's General Ao who is back." I don't know which soldier has sharp eyes, but I immediately recognized that this was my own cavalry. The soldiers of Qin, who had just been preparing to die heroically, were jubilant, but it was only an hour. They are really at the threshold of life and death, and they have gone for a while.
Ao Canghai secretly screamed in his heart that it was dangerous, but fortunately, the scout he sent out to give the order found the large puff of smoke. Otherwise, he stupidly searched the grassland for Zhao Ren's bad luck. The old nest was served by someone!
hurriedly hurried back, and saw Yun Yue trapped on the dirt bag. Shocked in his heart, Ao Canghai and Qi Guoyuan discussed it slightly. The knights with the bearded swords entered the military formation of the Donghu people, and those Donghu people never imagined that someone behind them would rush over to kill. For a while, he was chopped and turned on his back, and the screams and howls were loud.
When he tried to counterattack, he found that the cavalry had already come out of the formation. Rushed straight behind the Donghu people who were ready to attack Yun Yue. (To be continued.) )
