Chapter 802: Home Ahead
Because the interceptors fled in embarrassment, this battle of return was fought crisply. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In fact, when they saw the eight thousand men blocking the way, the people of Middle-earth thought that they would face a fierce battle, and no one thought that it would go so smoothly.
Even after breaking through the obstacles, the Middle-earthites still left a large number of elites to come to the palace.
That's right, the elite combat power on both sides of the guard began, and then it shrank, and most of it was concentrated in the position behind the palace.
There is no way, the sleigh carriages used by the people of Middle-earth are much slower than those of horses.
There are also cultivators who were injured in battle, and they also need to be retrieved - once they are abandoned, they will say goodbye to Middle-earth once and for all.
Even if you are lucky enough to escape the other party's captivity, you will freeze and starve to death in this ice and snow.
Therefore, the people of Middle-earth said that they would advance eighty miles and go back to their hometown, but in the last twenty miles, the speed of the real passage was quite slow, especially for rescuing wounded comrades, and the speed was basically equivalent to cleaning the battlefield.
Therefore, the elite of Middle-earth is placed on the back of the palace, which is also everyone's choice, and they have to do it.
But the Rouran people were really scared by the people of Middle-earth, and the moment they crossed the border, this can be deeply interpreted.
On the border, there are border troops.
In fact, half of the four Rouran 10,000 troops who intercepted the Middle-earthers came from the border army, and their combat effectiveness was very strong.
But this side of the army was drawn out in a hurry, and even if it was a Rouran person, it was not particularly accustomed to fighting in the ice and snow.
Among the 40,000 people, two more 10,000 people did not dare to move because the supplies could not keep up.
When the Middle-earth rangers decided to break through, the Rouran people still wanted to intercept, but the combat intention was not clear, and the action was relatively slow, so they had to use the method of desperate blocking to mobilize the army to encircle.
This transfer also takes time, and as a result, they intercept it relatively hastily.
All of this makes this battle ...... It's not ideal, at least Rouran people don't think it's ideal.
Their border troops were exhausted and did not exert their full combat effectiveness.
But...... No matter how many reasons there are, a loss is a loss.
In short, the border should have been intercepted by border troops - in fact, there were at least two heavily armed patrols of 100 men who witnessed the battle.
Their numbers were too small, and they didn't belong to the sequence of the two 10,000 people, and the key was to keep an eye on the Middle-earthers on the opposite side and supervise their possible transgressions, so the two captains didn't recruit them.
The two captains thought that these two hundred people might be able to intercept a few more when a few of the fish escaped from the border.
But seeing thousands of Middle-earth rangers rushing over, the two hundred-man patrols didn't think about it, they just ran away.
At this moment, they are already full of heart and gall - they can't stop it at all, and rushing forward is to send them to death.
However, there was a ten-man squad that withdrew a little more slowly, and when he saw the Middle-earthers rushing directly across the border, he ordered arrows to be fired on the side - at this time, the other party was thinking of going home with all his might, why not take advantage of it?
It's not wrong for people to think this way, leave it to anyone, once they can step into the border, their lives are equivalent to being guaranteed, and a line of life and death is in front of them, who cares if someone next to them sneaks attack?
And this chief is also sure that the large number of fleeing in front of him are really the rangers of Middle-earth, which can be recognized from the clothes and weapons, the rangers are only, and the most lacking is organization and discipline.
However, what he didn't expect was that the rangers didn't waste too much physical strength in the rush just now, and when they saw that someone dared to make a move at the door of the house, someone shouted, "Brothers, kill these guys!"
If someone had proposed this half a month ago, it would have been hard to say what the response would have been.
After all, they are all rangers, everyone is not related to each other, and if they can not rob others of their spoils in battle, it is already for the sake of fighting in a foreign land.
And what was the state of the ranger half a month ago? Being chased and killed like a lost dog, hungry and cold, hiding in Tibet, and panicking all day long.
In this situation, it is basically impossible to maintain a high morale, and if the border line is in sight, most of them will not hesitate to choose to rush forward.
It's just that this Rouran didn't expect that in the past half a month, the Middle-earth Ranger has changed a lot.
There is a backbone and there is no backbone, it is absolutely different, Li Yongsheng and their return have brought a large number of real people and cultivators, and what is even more rare is that these high-end combat forces are very willing to shelter their compatriots.
The rangers will be raised for a few days, and most of their combat strength has recovered, and on the way straight to the border, they easily killed nearly 2,000 elite soldiers of the Rouran army who were not able to stop the attack.
And the eight thousand troops on the border also collapsed in one rush, and this victory greatly boosted the morale of the rangers.
Thinking that their own elite is still behind the palace, these rangers are really fearless, and when they see that the other party dares to sneak attack at this moment, they can't help but be furious - this Nima is looking for death, right?
With a coax, more than 100 people rushed over directly, and rushed to the ten-person team.
Shi Chang wasn't too worried at first, only the cultivators rushed over, and we could deal with such a rabble.
As long as there is no absolute suppression of the rangers in the army, and there is no pressure to fight less and more, even if we can't defeat them, we can still strive for a steady retreat.
However, immediately afterward, Shi Chang found that more and more rangers rushed over, and there were also Si Xiu inside.
This Nima ...... It's not what I thought! He was so frightened that he turned his horse's head and ran, shouting, "Get out of here!"
But how can he control this situation?
Some people in Middle-earth shouted, "Brothers, kill them all, cut off their heads!"
"That's right, avenge the dead heroes!"
Most of the rangers have clear grievances, and they hate the behavior of the Rouran military to hang their heads on the border after killing their compatriots.
Of course, at this time, they will not think about what those compatriots have done in the territory of Rouran - in fact, there is no need to think, there is no right or wrong in the war, only positions.
In short, they hated the Rouran Frontier Army quite much, which is why most of the two thousand-strong teams had no heads on their corpses after the failure to block them - nothing more than beheading, as if no one would.
At this moment, someone once again set off the old account, and the anger of the rangers was suddenly stimulated, and some people even entered the border of Middle-earth, and when they heard the rumors, they rode their horses across the border again and chased and killed the Rouran border army.
As a result, none of the ten-person squad could run away, not only did they not run away, but even the two hundred-man teams were also implicated, and they were chased by the Middle-earth rangers for more than ten miles, and only eleven survived in the end.
This is thanks to the real people of Middle-earth who have spoken, asking everyone to cross the border quickly and remember to clean up the battlefield.
Otherwise, with the attitude of this group of Middle-earth people chasing after each other, they may be able to chase a hundred miles away.
The eleven sergeants who escaped death really hated that Shi Chang - everyone had already given way, and if you want to die, you shouldn't bother your brothers.
In the end, the team of Middle-earth finally succeeded in returning to their hometown, and behind them, the remaining men and horses of the 20,000-strong team were still slowly coming.
However, these 20,000 teams, excluding the 2,000 teams that blocked to the death, and the 8,000 teams that intercepted in the end, there were only 10,000 teams left.
What's especially bad is that the combat power of these ten thousand teams is far inferior to those ten thousand teams......
Li Yongsheng and their return were warmly welcomed.
Kun Shuai has already gotten the news, and Li Yongsheng and the others, who disappeared, have reappeared on the land of Rouran.
These days, the morale of the Middle-earth side is extremely low, every once in a while, there will be more people on the border, and no one is happy, the rangers grit their teeth with hatred, and the sergeants can only look at the border and sigh.
There were even some hot-tempered rangers who wanted to re-enter Rouran, but were persuaded by others - it was too unrealistic.
In such a cold and snowy place, re-entering Rouran, it is not to save people, but to send lives.
Speaking of which, the attack of the Rouran army was too unexpected for everyone, and what surprised everyone even more was the two heavy snowfalls.
In the face of such a great force of heaven and earth, no matter how much unwillingness you have, you can only endure it.
What everyone can do is to increase patrols along the border, and if they can find a Middle-earth cultivator who has escaped, they will respond immediately.
To be fair, the damage inflicted by the Middle-earth Ranger on Rouran was far greater than the killing of Middle-earth cultivators by Rouran's army - even if Li Yongsheng did not count the blow they inflicted on the anti-hunting team, it was Middle-earth that took advantage.
But the people of Middle-earth don't think so: no matter how many of your Rouran herdsmen die, they can't catch up with the loss of my Middle-earth heroes!
Therefore, the atmosphere on the border has been very depressing recently, and while everyone is stepping up patrols, they can see the heads of people hanging on the other side of the border from time to time, and the mood can be imagined.
It wasn't until Rouran's side that the secret agents of the Military Intelligence Department came with news that our real team was on the scene again, and they fought Tianmapo for the second time, that the atmosphere on the border became active again.
The Military Intelligence Department has indeed spared no effort to investigate the enemy's information, but in this kind of weather when heavy snow is blocking the road, the information transmitted back is also intermittent, and the news is not much and very fragmentary.
When Kun Shuai heard the news that the lost Middle-earth rangers had been gathered together and might break through to the south, he scattered the troops that responded to him on the border of three hundred miles.
The border line between Middle-earth and Rouran is more than 20,000 miles, but according to intelligence analysis, the place where Li Yongsheng and them are most likely to break through is these 300 miles.
20,000 troops, can't take care of the 300 miles of border, patrols are enough, and the response is much worse, so Kun Shuai informed the Middle-earth rangers that the large army may return in the near future.
At this moment, the rangers are on the border of Rouran, and there are more than 10,000 people, and they have not left because of the wind and snow.
And at the moment, the people in charge of this section are the rangers and a team of 1,000 people.
They imagined the scene of the return of the heroes of Middle-earth, but no one expected that the return they witnessed with their own eyes would be so amazing, shocking and unstoppable!
