Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-One: Eternal Spirit (Part 2)
Chapter 191: The great spirit lasts forever (Chinese)
As soon as Wang Zhuang's team moved, a stream of Meng cavalry immediately cut into them and the second battalion. As the infantry was moving, the queue would inevitably loosen. The gap between the queues was the key to the enemy cavalry breaking the infantry phalanx. Seeing the enemy cavalry cutting towards his own formation, Wang Zhuang had to stop, rectify the queue, and prepare to face the enemy. In the middle formation, Yao Meng's first battalion advanced forward in the rumbling drums, Jamuha's central commander flag also began to shake, and the two cavalry attacked, one left and one right.
At this moment, except for Qiao Zifang's second battalion, the other units were trapped in confrontation, and the Mengqi kept shooting around the infantry formation, adjusting the countermeasures accordingly according to the movement of the Lucheng border army. Jamukha wanted to eat the weaker second battalion as soon as possible and open the left wing of the Lucheng border army.
How great would it be if he could have his own Ranger at this time? Yao Meng looked at the soldiers of Qiao Zifang's second battalion in the distance and kept falling down. If there was a cavalry, under the cover of infantry and cavalry, his 10,000 infantry could attack the opponent's cavalry. But now, he had no second way out except defending to the death. Attacking would cause him to collapse faster. Although the defense would delay for a longer time, the ending would be a failure.
Yao Meng encountered a battle with no hope of winning for the first time, but he had to keep fighting in despair. Looking back at the direction of Tanzhou, his heart was filled with resentment. Sima Ren, I hope our Lucheng border army will die valuable. I hope you can kill more Mongolian troops in the future, even if you let you step on the bones of our Lucheng border army, I will admit it.
Qiao Zifang rushed to the front line. For many years, he had never been so brave and never been so mighty. He flew with a long spear and picked up the Mongolian soldiers who rushed forward. In a trance, he seemed to have returned to when he had just joined the army and had a high look on his face. When did he change himself? He subconsciously recalled the past.
"General, be careful!" A soldier rushed up from one side and blocked him. Almost at the same time, a slashed the soldier almost halved, and blood splattered all over Qiao Zifang's body. The blood woke Qiao Zifang up, looking at the Meng Jun riding on the war horse in front of him, showing a grim smile on his face, and was raising his sabre again, Qiao Zifang roared and rushed forward. The spear in his hand was swung horizontally and hit the horse's head. The horse's body tilted and fell to the ground. The knight immediately jumped down quickly, and the sabre in his hand was still chopped down. Qiao Zifang's spear was too long and he was hit horizontally. He was anxious and could not take it back. The white light flashed in front of him, and the knife had reached its peak.
When Qianjun was together, Qiao Zifang suddenly dropped his spear, kicked his feet on the ground, and rushed into the arms of the Mongolian army. He put his hands around the other party's waist, as intimate as a girl holding a brothel, but the force on his hands was too strong. When he pulled hard, the Mongolian army's waist made a quartz sound. With a roar, the man's sabre in his hand turned and pierced Qiao Zifang's back. He reacted very quickly. Judging from his skills, he should be in the Mongolian army. Seeing that the sabre was about to pierce into Qiao Zifang's back, Qiao Zifang lowered his head, opened his white teeth, and bit him hard. He was shorter than the other party, and wherever his mouth reached was the other party's throat.
With a click, the two rows of teeth closed, and the pain on his back ended abruptly. The Mengjun dropped his saber and grabbed Qiao Zifang's head with both hands, trying to pull his head away. Qiao Zifang screamed in his throat and bit it tightly. A stream of blood poured in from his mouth. A fishy smell made his intestines go over and over. The force on his opponent's hands became weaker and weaker. Finally, he drooped his head weaker and waved his head. Qiao Zifang raised his head, but there was still a piece of bloody flesh in his mouth, hanging under his mouth in strands.
The soldiers on both sides of the battle screamed. Now Qiao Zifang is like a devil crawling out of hell, covered in blood and a piece of enemy flesh and blood in his mouth. He screamed horriblely, picked up a long sword from the ground and rushed forward. Wherever he went, the Mongolian army retreated one after another.
"It turns out that on the battlefield, those who are afraid of death will die first, and those who want to die may not die! Old General, I finally understand what you said now!" Qiao Zifang took off a leg of Meng Jun, who was unable to retreat, and watched the man scream and fell down. His military boots were stomping on the man's face. With the sound of jacking, his head was already stepping into a piece of cake.
The fierce hatred that Qiao Zifang burst out in an instant greatly stimulated the fighting spirit of the Second Battalion. Their formation was gradually shrinking, but the smaller the force, the greater the resistance. With Qiao Zifang as the center, they formed a tight square formation. Although there were only more than a thousand people left, the damage caused to the other party was greater than before.
Tuhai retreated helplessly. His soldiers were exhausted at this time and the horses were already unable to charge again. They could only retreat and rest for a while in order to revive their momentum.
Jamuha's face was a little gloomy, Tuhai, with a shameful face, walked up to him, "General, I..."
Jamuha waved his hand, "The Lucheng border army is indeed very good at fighting. It's nothing. Take a break and go up again. The one in front of you is the weakest of the Lucheng border army. I hope to see you can defeat them in a devastating way next time."
Seeing the Mongolian army retreat, Qiao Zifang suddenly felt his whole body sore. The sabre, which had been dancing like a windmill, fell to the ground with a sound, and his legs were weak, and he sat on the ground.
"General, are you okay?" Several personal soldiers rushed up.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Shaking his hand, Qiao Zifang touched his erect belly and sighed: "If I had known today, I would have worked harder, ***, Sima Rui, ** your grandma."
In Tanzhou City, Sima Ren's hands and feet were cold. Several probings had discovered traces of the Mongolian army. It has been days since Yazikou lost contact. All of this shows that Yazikou has been lost and the Mongolian army has entered the hinterland of Tanzhou.
"Go, send more sentry detectives, and we must clearly find out how many Mongolian troops have passed through Yazikou and entered Tanzhou?" Sima Ren shouted angrily.
"Brother, I will lead the troops to attack immediately. We must block this Mongolian army and cover the retreat of most of Tanzhou." Sima Zhi said.
Sima Ren nodded, "Fourth brother, you bring 10,000 people out of the city. There are too many things in Tanzhou that need to be transported to Lu Ning. It will take us at least ten days. You must find this Mongolian army to block them and get us enough time."
"I understand!" Sima Zhi nodded.
"Ari!" Sima Ren shouted.
Sima Rui walked over, "Uncle."
"If you bring five thousand people to Huining County, you must firmly control Huining County. If the Mongolian army occupy it, we will be cut off from the road to Luning and will have to retreat to Pingyang Prefecture. Pingyang has nothing except a rich mineral deposit, and it is impossible to feed the Tanzhou military and civilians who retreated there on a large scale. What's more, Pingyang Prefecture is definitely the place that the Mongolian army will try its best to capture next."
"I see!"
"Don't make any mistakes. Huining is our throat when we retreat to Luning. Once we lose it, you know what it means." Sima Ren said with concern: "You take Shi Gandang's troops, with you as the main one, Shi Gandang as the deputy. He is experienced and you can listen to his opinions more."
"Nephew, obey the order." Sima Rui quickly left.
"Brother, I'm going too!" Sima Zhi said: "In Tanzhou, we need to speed up. If Yazikou is lost, a large number of Mongolian troops will soon pour in. The opponent is mainly cavalry, and the speed must be extremely fast. There are some unnecessary things you don't need to bring."
"I understand what you mean!" Sima Ren nodded. The unnecessary ones are naturally the weak and weak who are unable to walk fast.
"Report!" There were shouts from outside, and a blood-stained captain officer rushed in quickly under the support of two Tanzhou soldiers.
"Fu Zheng, the captain of the First Battalion of the Lucheng Border Army, has an urgent military information reported to Lord Sima Ren!" The blood-stained captain looked at the crowd in the hall. He did not know Sima Ren.
"I am Sima Ren. Aren's border troops in Lucheng at Yumen Pass? Why did you get here?" Sima Ren's face was gloomy. Could it be that Yumen Pass was also lost?
Fu Zheng knelt down on the ground with a loud voice, "Sir, please save the border army in Lucheng!"
"The border troops in Lucheng guard Yumen Pass. With the Xiong City as the basis, can't they be able to defend so quickly?" Sima Ren said sternly.
Fu Zheng burst into tears, "Sir, General Yao learned that Yazikou was lost, and the Mongolian army had already broken into Tanzhou through Yazikou. He immediately ordered General Qu Lu to guard Yumen Pass, and Lord Yao led the main force to Fengkou, blocking the main force of the Mongolian army there. Now he is fighting to the death. There are only five or six thousand Mongolian army that have entered Tanzhou. General Yao asked Lord Sima Ren to send troops immediately to support Fengkou."
Sima Zhi's eyes flashed and he stepped forward, "You said there were only five or six thousand Mongolian troops entering Tanzhou?"
"Yes, there are only five or six thousand people. The main force was blocked by General Yao in Fengkou. Please send troops to support immediately." Fu Zheng nodded vigorously.
"How many enemies are there in Fengkou, General Yao?"
"When I set out, the enemy had only reached more than 10,000 cavalry, and their main force was still outside Yumen Pass."
Sima Zhi turned his head excitedly, "Brother, what a good opportunity! Since there are only five or six thousand people coming in, we can eat them in one bite, and then the main force rushed to Fengkou and wiped out the more than 10,000 Mongolian troops."
Sima Ren's face looked gloomy and sunny. Sima Zhi said it was right. This was indeed a good opportunity. Eating these two Mongolian troops would be a great contribution. However,... in the midst of his thoughts, he waved his hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work in the lieutenant Fu, let's go down and rest first to treat the wounds. I will deal with the major military affairs immediately."
"Thank you, thank you!" Fu Zheng listened to Sima Zhi's tone and thought the reinforcements were looking at him, so he couldn't help but be overjoyed. He kowtowed repeatedly and walked out of the hall with the support of two Tanzhou soldiers.
"Brother?" Looking at Sima Ren's face, Sima Zhi felt something was wrong.
"Eating it is a great achievement, but it cannot be eaten? Or are we stuck to the enemy? At this time, there is only Qu Lu, the battalion of Yumen Pass. Once the Mongolian army reacts, they can go down in one go."
"Brother, there is a clear chance of war, but now, we have a steady advantage. Yao Meng's move is very wonderful and has created an excellent opportunity for us. As long as we command properly and act quickly, we can move forward and retreat freely." Sima Zhili fought.
"Send someone to tell Yao Meng that reinforcements will arrive soon!" Sima Ren said: "Fourth brother, your mission is still to find the Mongolian army that has entered Tanzhou."
"Then Fengkou?" Sima Zhi said in confusion.
"You don't have to worry about it." Sima Ren waved his hand, "Go to do things!"
