Chapter 785: Whose Twilight
Chapter 785 Who's Twilight
Geng Yi personally commanded the supervising team, everyone was holding shining steel swords, their eyes were hideous, Li Bao's remnants withdrew, Geng Yi raised his sword and shouted, "The supervising team is forward, who dares to throw away their weapons and go backwards privately, there is no mercy." ”
"Shield, kill" several Dingguo military captains immediately pulled out their steel knives and shouted loudly, the front rows of the array are all orthodox Dingguo troops, they heard the order, immediately put up the shields, tightly connected together, at the same time the spearmen clenched their guns and hit the heavy shields one by one, and the battlefield immediately remembered the sound of the collision, "Ho ho ho ho"
The formation pressed forward, and the soldiers of the Dingguo Army told those recruits not to be afraid with a brave and fearless attitude, their majestic posture and the infinite confidence of the people behind them, watching the soldiers of the Dingguo Army listen to the shield and slowly move forward, the uniform roar in their mouths was like thunder, they gradually became calm, and their eyes became more and more hideous. This time, the spearman's gun was very peculiar, not to mention the length of the gun, and there were many iron bars in the front half of the gun, like a fork of the trunk of a tree, and a bit like a hook, but there were too many hooks.
Jin Xilang's main army arrived, looking at the Dingguo Army array, he had no time to think about it, because at this time you have to fight if you don't fight, although the Yuanshan Ridge is open, it is not vast, the distance between the two sides is only a dozen zhang, if you don't fight others, you have to fight you. Jin Xilang would not retreat, and there was almost no need for him to order, and those Tianwangzhai precipitation had already formed a formation and rushed towards the Dingguo army. The two torrents collided together, the Dingguo army foot soldiers were wearing black chain mail, and the soldiers of Tianwangzhai were wrapped in blue belts and wore red robes, which was a collision between red and black.
The two formations collided together. The generals of the Dingguo Army immediately moved forward to command. "Points. Spear collected! ”
With the order, the two shields immediately leaned inward, directly giving way to a gap, the strange spear hooked a Tianwangzhai soldier, the two pikemen grabbed the spearman and pulled hard, the Tianwangzhai soldier was dragged into the formation, and then the shield was immediately closed. Before the soldiers of Tianwangzhai who were dragged into the formation could stand up, several steel knives were cut down. The shields are divided and combined. The spearmen kept hooking people and dragging them into the formation, so they had practiced countless times with the Dingguo Army, and the cooperation was quite tacit, but for those people in Tianwangzhai, this was tantamount to a nightmare, their people were constantly decreasing, but they couldn't break through the shield array at the front. The shield of the Dingguo Army is different from the usual shield, not to mention that the thickness is a lot more, there are two handles on it, and the shield of more than one person is held by two people together. Therefore, the stability has been strengthened a lot, and at least it is impossible to knock down the shield with individual ability. Unless you have a weapon in your hand. The shield is too high, the soldiers of Tianwangzhai are close to the shield, they can't see the situation behind the shield at all, they can only look at it randomly, for the spearmen on the other side, they don't have so many worries at all, as long as they go out with many forked guns, as long as they feel that they are hooking something, they will drag them into the formation hard, and they don't need to think about the accuracy of the hook at all, so many people on the other side get together, even if they close their eyes, they can get an unlucky egg, and sometimes they will hook in two people at once.
As the battle progressed, the Dingguo army moved forward step by step, and the Tianwangzhai army was forced to retreat step by step, they had never seen such a strange formation, where did they know how to resist. This kind of spear was also thought of by Niu Gao from the use of the hook sickle, since the hook and sickle can break the horse's legs, then why not improve the hook and sickle for not fighting, so there is this kind of strange spear with the upper half like a tree branch.
"Ah" a Tianwangzhai soldier was hooked on the shoulder, he wanted to escape, but a fierce pull pulled him to the shield, seeing that the shield separated, the soldier was about to be dragged into the formation, his companions hurriedly hugged his body, under the pull of both sides, the person's shoulder was directly withdrawn, blood gushed, the whole shoulder as if it was cut. Screaming, crying, scolding, the main army of Tianwangzhai suffered heavy losses, but did not see the slightest dawn of victory, the battle came to this point, everyone understood, Tianwangzhai has lost, the only question is how much can escape.
"King, you can't fight anymore, withdraw quickly, if you don't leave, the brothers will have to fold here" A commander ran out covered in blood, with tears in his eyes, hatred and unwillingness in his eyes.
Jin Xilang gritted his teeth and yelled in pain, "Withdraw." Retreat, what a humiliating term, just now I was chasing the ass of the Dingguo Army, but now the situation is reversed, and God's face has become too fast. As soon as the order to retreat was issued, the people of Tianwangzhai flocked to escape, after all, they had not experienced a large battle formation, and they had not undergone strict training, so they could not retreat in a proper way, without a sense of hierarchy, anyway, they were fleeing in a swarm.
Tianwangzhai was defeated, Li Bao also killed it again, and the Dingguo army also began the final counterattack, but at this time there was a situation in the standing formation, it turned out that those prisoners saw the Goryeo people fleeing for their lives, so they fought and beat the idea of the water dogs, these people were hot-headed, and they wanted to cross the big array and run to the front to kill the enemy. You must know that the reason why the Dingguo army can win more with less depends on the strict formation, tacit cooperation, there is shield protection in front, and spear killing in the back, if someone crosses to the front of the big formation, then the whole formation is not chaotic, at this time, if the people of Tianwangzhai kill a horse gun, they have to be messed up into a pot of porridge. Geng Yi's face was dark, his brows jumped wildly, and he pointed to some of the people who were making the most trouble, and he said loudly, "Where is the overseer, drag those people out and cut them down." ”
The soldiers of the battle team acted according to the order, found those who made trouble and dragged them out directly, and then the knife fell in hand, and the head fell to the ground, and after killing nearly 100 people in this way, the formation was too re-ordered.
The speed of the Dingguo army's pursuit is not fast, but it does not mean that Jin Xilang's retreat will be very smooth, when he returned to the canyon area, he found that there were many more situations and rolling logs on the road, which caused a lot of trouble to the retreat of the army, and at the same time, there were constantly tiger-headed soldiers from the valley road, these people were stalked, and Tianwangzhai could not sit idly by, so that the entire army retreated like a snail climbing a mountain.
Now, Jin Xilang knows that he has been fooled even if he has a pig's head, but when he arrives, the sky is dark, and in this complex canyon area, he wants to escape back unharmed, unless he grows wings and flies. Cui Tianfang was also uncomfortable. He knew what he was doing. But he did not immediately retreat to Tianwangzhai. He had to find a way to get as many people out as possible, so he urgently ordered all the remaining soldiers and horses to enter the canyon area to clear the roads, block those valley roads, and prevent the thieves from suddenly killing out. Cui Tianfang did not make a mistake, there is no other choice at this moment more appropriate than this choice. But it was Cui Tianfang's decision that completely sent Tianwangzhai into the abyss.
At midnight, the canyon was dark. At this moment, there is a group of demons hidden on the top of Wenshan Mountain. Yue Ziqi had been estimating the time, and when the last group of the main forces of Tianwangzhai galloped from the main village, he finally gave the order to attack. Taking advantage of the night, set off fifty people quietly entered the treasure village under the mountain by means of ropes, now it is the time of Hai, the time of Hai in the middle of winter, except for special circumstances, it is a person who has drilled the quilt to rest, so the whole treasure village except for the light on the lookout, the rest of the place is dark. It's quiet. As a place where materials gather, Baozhai is naturally well defended. It's just that because Baozhai has not been invaded for a long time, the garrison has been lax. There should have been sixteen people guarding eight sentry posts, but in fact there were only six people, four of these six people guarded the gate of Baozhai, and the other two guarded the library gate and beacon tower in the north, which means that as long as these four people were eliminated, the entire Baozhai would immediately become blind. The soldiers of the Dingguo Army in black clothes bent down and touched the door, the four gatekeepers were sitting by the fire and chatting, in the middle of winter, the weather was unbearable, if you didn't bake the fire, how could you live?
Suddenly, several black shadows rushed up, and the four Tianwangzhai soldiers who were responsible for guarding the gate of the village were covered with their mouths and cut their throats, followed by two people at the door of the warehouse under the beacon tower and at the door of the warehouse. Yue Ziqi was born in the Ruifeng Battalion, followed Yang Zaixing in the early years, although he was young, but inherited Yang Zaixing's rigor, although the current situation is very good, but he did not relax at all, "Divide fifty people to guard the gate and beacon tower, and the rest of the people are looking for their own targets, and none of the thieves in the village are left, and after half an hour, all gather in the northern inventory." ”
With Yue Ziqi's order, Baozhai began to fall into a tragedy, many Tianwangzhai soldiers were still sleeping, they never dreamed that a knife would cut their heads, so many people died in their dreams, some people woke up, but they also failed to rush out of the house to light the beacon for communication. As for the walled gate, it is heavily guarded, and one or two people can't rush out at all. Half an hour, the people who stayed in Baozhai were killed, and then Yue Ziqi led everyone to the inventory, and after looking for many things that caused fire, all of them went to the top of the house, and there were some dry grass and coal stored at the southeast foot of Baozhai, which were used to feed horses and keep warm, and all of them were transferred, and after everything was settled, they made a gesture, and the soldiers came to the foot of the mountain and climbed up again along the rope. Why not set fire first and then retreat? The fire together, the main village and the left and right two villages can be seen, as if the beacon tower was lit, when the three villages of soldiers and horses all poured over, how to deal with hundreds of people in their hands? Although there are very few soldiers in Sanzhai now, as long as there are 2,000 people, it is enough to drink a pot of their own. When he came to the top of the mountain, he lit hundreds of torches and threw them down, and Baozhai immediately fell into a sea of fire. The moon is dark and the wind is high, the winter is dry, the fire is burning, and you can't save it. The fire engulfed Baozhai, when the Sanzhai soldiers reacted it was too late, they couldn't rush in at all, the fire was too big, it was not humanly able to save at all, just like that, nearly 3,000 people in Sanzhai watched the Baozhai where the materials were stored burned into a white ground, at this time there was a big question mark in everyone's hearts, Baozhai was burned, what to eat in the future, can't you drink cold water every day?
If Baozhai was burned to the ground and the situation became only desperate, then the fiasco of the main army of Tianwangzhai directly made the last road impossible. The next day, the morning sun had just risen, and Jin Xilang, who had finally escaped with his life, looked at the smoke that had not yet dispersed in Baozhai, and the whole person trembled, and fell backwards with a loud roar. Jin Xilang knew that he King Jin was finished, and it would be impossible for him to compete with Kim Tae-hee for Goryeo, but why did this happen, how did the Han people kill them, how could they bypass the defense of Wenshan and Sanzhai and set fire to the most stable treasure village?
Jin Xilang vomited blood and fell ill, the entire Tianwang Village immediately became dead and silent, Baozhai was burned, and less than 2,000 people fled back, counting all the people who stayed in the three villages, there were more than 5,000 people. Five thousand mouths, how long can you last without food, the answer is that it is impossible for seven days. This is winter, the cold winter wax moon, the grass and trees are dry, if it is summer, everyone can still rely on picking wild fruits to eat leaves and digging wild vegetables to survive, but in the winter, how can there be wild vegetables for you to dig, all to gnaw dry bark? It is also Tianwangzhai who believes in Baozhai too much, and always feels that Baozhai is the most stable, so almost all the heavy grain and grass are concentrated in Baozhai, and the three villages are only enough for one day's stock on weekdays, and there will be someone to go to Baozhai every day to lead, now it's okay, Baozhai is gone, and everyone doesn't know who to find to eat.
Cui Tianfang came to Baozhai with a gloomy face, although the fire had been extinguished at this time, but the smoke everywhere was still showing how fierce the fire was, and the corpses roasted into jerky were carried out, looking at the tragic situation of Baozhai, it was really shocking, "Mr. Cui, what to do with the corpses of the brothers, all buried in Baitang Valley?" ”
If someone dies in Tianwangzhai, they will be buried in Baitang Valley, but this time there are too many people who died, and more than 300 people were burned to death at once. Of course, there were more people who died in the Wonsan Ridge and Canyon area, but those corpses could not be brought back. Cui Tianfang looked at the corpses all over the ground, not knowing what he was thinking, there was pain in his eyes, there was cruelty, and hesitation. When anyone thinks of this idea, their hearts can't help but tremble, Baozhai has been burned, and all the grain and grass have been destroyed, but people always have to live, so what to eat next? Cui Tianfang clenched his fists, his eyes only closed, "All the corpses were carried to the flat room, the sinews were cut off, and the bones were buried in Baitang Valley. ”
Hum, there are still many people cleaning up the mess in Baozhai, when they heard Cui Tianfang's words, they were all stunned, and when they looked at Cui Tianfang again, they only felt that this person wanted to be like a ghost. Yes, although Cui Tianfang didn't say anything, everyone understands that these dead brothers, they will become a bunch of barbecue meat and become the staple food of Tianwangzhai in the future. Eating human flesh, what a distant and terrible thing, but now it has befallen the people of Tianwangzhai.
On the twelfth day of the twelfth month, the Dingguo army and the tiger head army surrounded the Tianwang Village, and the army was stationed in the place where the Tianwang Village was less than two miles, so far the Tianwang Village became a dead village completely. Stepping on the continuous patches of dry grass, feeling the cold wind from Wenshan, Zhao Yougong looked at the Tianwang Village in front of him, the palace was towering, such as straight into the sky, the stone lion was separated left and right, and he looked at the rivers and mountains. Someone once said that by looking at the residence, you can tell who the owner is. Everything here is like Kim Xi Lang, who is ambitious and wants to unify Goryeo and reproduce the Goryeo dynasty of the Sui dynasty. Therefore, although Tianwangzhai is a cottage, it is magnificent, majestic and broad, and the architectural style has a momentum that looks down on the world. (To be continued.) )
