Chapter Eighty-Eight: Retreat
The captain's eyes looked at the cavalry in front of him in a daze, as if there were no cavalry here except them. The alcohol made him very excited, but it also slowed his reactions.
"Hun ......" Captain looked at a feathered arrow stuck in his chest, and the last human character spurted blood from his throat.
Xia Xuanyue splashed the cold moonlight on the earth, and a terrible scream echoed in the empty valley. In the empty moonlight, the scream spread far away. As far away as the clouds whose eyes were as red as rabbits, they heard it in their ears.
"What sound?" Yun Xiao lifted the curtain and asked the guards.
There was a scream, as if it came from the valley. It can't be that the Huns are killing people again. The Iron Guard looked at the Hun tent in the shadows, and from time to time there was a slight sound of drums. The Huns believed in very cruel gods, and each time the priests would kill many people. Could it be that the Huns were priests? Yun Xiao's mind conjured up the cruel scene of human sacrifice.
Wei Qing was a little dizzy drunk, and at the age of fourteen, he had not yet practiced a thousand glasses of alcohol without getting drunk. Wine is a good thing, at least it will warm you up on a cold night.
When a handful of arrows rained down, the people around him were hit by arrows one after another. The armor of the Yun family saved Wei Qing's life, and a feather arrow hit him in the back of the heart. However, the rounded nail leaves were covered with wax, and the bone arrowhead was successfully slid away.
If this is an iron arrowhead, it might have pierced through the armor to leave him a souvenir. Wei Qing, who was unharmed, felt a chill down his entire spine. He hurriedly grabbed his helmet and buckled it on his head, and shouted loudly: "Enemy attack." Array array. ”
It was as if a scoop of water had been poured into the hot oil, and the entire camp exploded almost instantly. The chaotic soldiers pushed each other, and the rack of roast sheep was squeezed over. The campfires were also crushed, and the soldiers frantically searched for their blades and horses.
The whole camp was filled with shouting and shouting. There were also the reprimands of the captains and, of course, the screams of those who were hit by the arrows. Not everyone has the Yun family's armor and body, and there is no one else to equip except Wei Qing.
These Da Dan Yu guards are all selected from various tribes and have good cavalry and marksmanship. Fifty or sixty paces away from them, not to mention a person, not even a sparrow can escape.
There were not many Hun guards who rushed to the cliff, only more than a hundred. If Wei Qing can organize an effective counterattack at this time. He had a ten-percent chance of driving the Huns down.
But these hairy children have only fought a few tailwind battles. Once attacked by the Huns. They were so flustered that they didn't know what to do. From the sergeant to the captain, to Wei Qing, he doesn't know what to do now.
Until the camp was littered with wailing wounded and the bodies of the dead. Wei Qing reacted in the initial shock. He quickly found his horse. He shouted at the nearby soldiers. Pick up a bow and arrow and shoot back.
Under his leadership, more than 100 soldiers. Pick up your bow and arrows and start firing back. As soon as he saw that the Han army began to organize a counterattack, the head of the guard of Da Shan Yu protected the round shield in front of him. Holding a big sword in his hand, he led the soldiers to rush forward with a shout.
The trail is too narrow. It is simply not enough to let the brigade pass guò. So at this time, the path was crowded with people, and these Han people could not be allowed to organize a counterattack. Otherwise, even if these 100 people are three heads and six arms, they will not be able to withstand the counterattack of more than 1,000 people.
It must be pasted to give the enemy's formation a chance to come up behind them.
From time to time, someone was hit by an arrow and fell off his horse, but the Huns' cavalry still rushed towards the enemy ten times their size without hesitation. They proved their bravery with their actions, and also let these fledgling little guys see what the real Huns are.
Broadswords, spears, and maces. Their blades are varied, but their strong physique and brave style are incomparable to these hairy children.
Da Danyu's guards rushed into the wolves like tigers descending from the mountains, revealing sharp claws and powerful fangs. They frantically gnawed at moving objects as they could see, and the skinny wolves were torn apart in front of them like puppies.
The fangs of these little wolf cubs are not strong enough, and their claws are not sharp enough. They are not really jackals yet, although they are brave. However, the disparity in strength made them the target of slaughter, and an arrow knocked over a nearby Hun who was fighting against Yulin.
The qiē in front of him made Wei Qing feel confused, is this still the Huns I saw a few days ago? How could they be so powerful, just two nights ago. In the same moonlight, these Huns were hunted down like sheep by themselves, but now they looked like sheep.
Casualties are increasing dramatically, and many of the young Yulin are not at all the best of these fierce Hun warriors. The number of corpses on the ground quickly increased, and most of them were wearing the red armor of Yulin. There were only a few Huns in yellow robes.
"General, withdraw. We can't stand it, they're too powerful. ”
A lieutenant beside him had a trembling voice, and pulled the reins of Wei Qing's horse with a crying voice.
There were constantly Huns rushing up on the trail, almost in the blink of an eye. Dozens of people came up from the sheep intestine path, and they also rushed towards Wei Qing and them with the same wild shouts. One or two hundred people beat more than a thousand people, and they actually had the advantage.
A feather arrow swooped into Wei Qing's shoulder, and at the same time, several feather arrows were set on his chest and arm.
The armor of the Yun family protected Wei Qing very well, but at such a close distance, the iron arrow still penetrated the iron armor. Deeply rooted in Wei Qing's flesh, Wei Qing screamed and turned over and fell off the horse.
Yulin next to him hurriedly scooped up Wei Qing, and he didn't have time to issue an order to flee like a lost dog.
The rest of the Yulin immediately fell apart, and in the darkness, all I saw was feather forests in red armor scurrying between the hills.
It came too suddenly, and suddenly Wei Qing didn't even have time to ignite the Drill Sky Monkey.
The clash of blades from a distance of more than a dozen miles sounded so faint that only the occasional scream would ripple through the silent valley. But no one in Taniguchi knew that these were those Yulin boys being hunted down.
The little ones of the wolf bèi ran around the hill for two hours before returning to Yun Xiao's camp, and Yun Xiao, who had just fallen asleep, was immediately called. When he saw the wolf bèi's feather forest boy, he knew that something big was not good. But at this time he couldn't do anything, it was too late.
At this time, even if the Yun family's guards were sent to help, it was useless. The Huns must have gained a foothold on the hills, and it is possible to count 10,000 according to time.
The triangular nails and traps everywhere not only blocked the footsteps of the Huns, but also blocked the footsteps of their own attacks. The Huns on the opposite side could escape calmly, and they could only watch and there was no way at all.
"Send a signal, and let the Lewn come here quickly to converge. The Huns had already circled behind him, and if they didn't retreat, they would be wiped out.
The exit of the sheep intestine trail was only five or six miles away from the valley mouth that the Legion defended. For cavalry, this distance is not a distance at all. ”
The goshawk hurriedly sent three second kicks in a row, and the sound of the two kicks being domineering and spreading could be transmitted far away.
Those who heard the signal to retreat were very confused, and today they were only attacked sporadically and tentatively. A total of 18 Huns were killed, and most of them were killed by the Qiang. How will the retreat be arranged at night?
But before leaving, Yun Xiao had already told him to retreat no matter how he heard the sound of three and two kicks. In order to let Zhi Le know what the sound of two kicks was, Yun Xiao also specially put two for him to listen to.
He was hesitating, and three more kicks sounded in the sky. It seemed that Yun Xiao was urging him to retreat, something big must have happened. He no longer hesitated, and quickly led his men to retreat the way they came.
There is still a long way to go around the canyon, and the Qiang people on the hill have already run away after hearing the sound of the first second kick.
The sound of the second kick kept ringing, and the overbearing and dispersed sound was like a mother's call. The soldiers scattered on the hill concentrated on the large camp of Yunxiao, but fortunately, the cavalry moved quickly. If it was an infantry, then Yun Xiao could only ignore them and retreat on their own.
He sent a team of Donghu soldiers to greet him and ask him not to return here to join him. Directly detour back to Wuwei, and he had to retreat to Wuwei in a hurry.
The sniper plan has failed, and now it can only be defended by relying on the fortified city of Wuwei. At the same time, he sent people to ask Liu Che for help, only hoping that the reinforcements would arrive before they arrived. It's too ugly to die yourself.
The veterans of Yulin and the Northern Army quickly set up the car, and the whole process was not used for an hour. When the sky is white, and the moon in the sky turns silvery white. The entire valley mouth has been completely evacuated, and the new Ding of the Yun family has even picked up a large number of triangular nails.
The next section will have to be a tough siege, and this thing may have some effect. Even if you don't use it, it's good to melt it down and make arrowheads.
Yun Xiao retreated towards Wuwei with the wind of the team, saying that it was retreating was actually more like escaping. The Donghu people were left behind to break the queen, and then behind were the guards of the Yun family, and these guards were not so much broken as the warlords. As long as these more than 10,000 Donghu people dare to run, Yun Xiao will immediately come to kill.
The carriage shook very much, and Wei Qing in the carriage was stripped away. He was hit by eight arrow wounds on his body, and even with the protection of the Yun family's armor, three of them were shot into the chest. If he didn't have a sturdy fish scale armor, I'm afraid his chest would have been pierced several times.
Bloody arrows were taken out of Wei Qing's body, looking at Wei Qing, who was unconscious with a high fever, Yun Xiao was speechless for a while. (To be continued......)
