Main text 2098 The Empire Strikes Back (Thirteen)
When the shouts of fighting from the direction of the Hungarian Western Army's main camp sounded from a distance, Duo Weiyan knew something was wrong. He almost jumped off his horse and looked at the sky in the distance with black smoke like a straight road. His face was gloomy. The situation took a sharp turn, and he was a little anxious. Three million gold coins flew away just like that. Who wouldn't be anxious and feel as if it were burning? This time, he ran for more than 40 miles of mountain roads in one breath. Along the way, he also encountered many Hungarian cavalrymen who were rushing to the left wing. Although the number of each unit was not large, he kept encountering 1,000 or 2,000 cavalrymen. After walking for dozens of miles on the mountain road, he also broke up the scale of 30,000 to 40,000 people. He couldn't run all the way. Although the Western Cavalrymen finally defeated the obstruction, they still delayed time.
And no one expected that the main force of the empire would directly take the way of a straight-line breakthrough and advance with overwhelming force all the way.
No matter what, press forward with all your strength! The entire Xiting cavalry group, thinking that the bounty of 3 million gold coins that was about to be in hand was about to fly away from their mouths, all looked unhappy. They desperately moved forward. Although the 90,000 Xiting cavalry took a long way and went around behind the Xiongya camp, they could still see the black smoke columns rushing straight into the sky and pressing forward. He and all the Xiting generals were moved and surprised by the speed. In just two or three hours, they dragged from the distant 30-mile diplomatic front to the Xiongya camp. At this time, the Xiting cavalry broke through four obstacles in a row. The fastest one would take about an hour. This was the result of trying their best. They continued to move forward with all their strength, hoping that the smoke in front would burn slower and the Xiongya people would not be too soft. At least they could hold out for some time. The Xiting army, starting from Duo Weiyan, no longer cared about the horsepower and ran. The spurs made blood grooves on the horses' bellies, but they were less than ten miles away from the Xiongya camp. =In front of the 90,000 cavalrymen of Xiting, a large number of defeated troops roared like a mountain torrent.
These defeated troops included the Huns who were scattered by the impact in front, the legions retreating from the two sides of the front, and the remnants of the camp that were almost collapsed. They gathered together at once, with a number of more than 100,000 people. Rumble, they were crowded with the eyes of the Xiting people who were rushing forward. There were endless heads.
"Ni Ma..." The eyes of the Xiting cavalrymen were red. The target was in front of them. Ten miles away, it would take half an hour to run fast. It was not a victory in sight, but they could get a little bit of leftovers. How could they run into it? At the beginning, the opposite side fired a rain of arrows. The Xiting cavalry and light cavalry could not help but retreat, hoping to get close to the main camp to scare away the Huns who were blocking the road in front, but there were too many Huns. There were so many that they could not be let go. The Huns were eager to escape, but they did not expect to encounter such a large number of enemy cavalry here, and they were scared by the cavalry in black armor in front. They only dared to shoot arrows randomly and then evaded and fled. The arrows were not accurate and powerful enough. At that time, only a dozen Xiting sentinels fell off their horses. But more Xiting cavalrymen had arrows hanging on their armor. However, these Xiting cavalrymen did not stop the fleeing army. They just headed for the front of the Xiongya main camp. Occasionally, a few teams of cavalrymen flashed cold blades and fiercely crashed into the already chaotic Xiongya fleeing army. People shouted and horses neighed, and screams were heard. The sound of bodies being knocked away and the sound of hacking and killing, hoping to clear a path for the rear brigade
"I can't catch up! I can't catch up no matter what! This time it's over!"
A sturdy Xiting general looked at the endless Xiongya fleeing army in front of him, his eyes revealed a trace of bitterness, and he gasped for breath. After bumping on the mountain road for several hours and constantly fighting with the Xiongya people, even the Xiting cavalry began to feel a little powerless. At this time, because of the collapse of the direction of the base camp, more batches of Xiongya fleeing troops hit head-on, which made the speed of the 90,000 Xiting cavalry stagnate to the slowest. Although they swept through the rear of the Xiongya base camp like a raging wave, they were only one step away from the base camp, but their energy and physical strength had been exhausted. Now they felt that it was hopeless to attack the base camp, and the courage of the Xiting cavalry suddenly fell!
"What should we do?"
The generals of Xiting looked at each other, all of them were at a loss. Their fingers holding the reins of their war horses turned white. The expressions of dissatisfaction and helplessness on their faces said it all. They were frustrated. These generals of various ethnic groups in Xiting would naturally unite and fight to the death if there were benefits in front of them. Now that they saw that the benefits were gone, who would have the motivation? There were too many Huns in front of them. Unless they killed them all, it would be impossible to break through.
"We know that there will be casualties in war. Since we have thrown ourselves into the battlefield in one breath, why don't we just kill them straight? Anyway, everyone is here to fight. Are we afraid that we can't afford to die? Why do we have to go through so much trouble! Now it's good. After half a day's journey, the battle is still not less fought. There are also four or five thousand injured soldiers. The imperial army has burned from the border to the Huns' base camp. We are still dawdling here. When we get to the Huns' base camp, let alone chewing bones, I'm afraid there won't be even a mouthful of soup left." The sturdy Xiting general complained in a low voice.
"Who says it's not the case? This time, who didn't pat their chests and promise to their relatives in the clan that they would at least go back with a golden riding whip hanging on it! Now let alone a riding whip strung with a thousand empire gold coins, it is a riding whip strung with a thousand silver coins. All the tassels are gone, and some copper coins can be scraped together, but what's the point? Use it! The Duowei tribe has the empire to rely on and the princess's private care. It will not suffer any loss. It's just pity for us that so many young men from all tribes on the grassland were pulled out in one go. First, they stayed in the northern half of Gangfei. Yue, we finally had a big battle, and now it’s over! “Another Xiting general lowered his head!
Duo Weiyan's face was ashen and silent, as if he didn't hear the voice behind him. He looked deeply at the black smoke in the distance rising up to the bottom of the sky. That should be the Hungarian headquarters. It was so close, but yet... Being so far away, the smell of blood, the fierce sound of fighting, and the sound of wind blowing his hair all made his back feel a biting chill.
What a mockery, I thought I was really the number one person in the West Courtyard, but I was just deceiving myself! This time I came with the 90,000 Xiting army, and I couldn't help but feel a little arrogant in my heart. When the Xiting was in its heyday, this was the amount of elite combat power that could be produced in one go. But today, everything is pale and powerless. With everything placed in front of him, the tribes did not hesitate to pull out such a large cavalry army and came on the emperor's order. There may not be some intention to show it to the empire,
But at this moment, he realized how foolish it was for him and the tribes of Xiting to have no idea of the so-called pride. When the tribes obeyed his orders, they were actually selling the face of King Falcon Khan and sparing no effort to drive the army. Come, what you are doing is the rich rewards from the empire, if the tribes of Xiting are eagles. Then the eagle's anklet is tied to the arm of a falcon called Vecchia. From the beginning to the end, Xiting has been this person's eagle dog, coming and going at a call. As for himself, the so-called number one in Xiting If you really have the slightest intention to fight against this person, I'm afraid that all the tribes in Xiting will work together to flatten your Duowei tribe!
Is this battle really over like this? Duo Weiyan shook his head to dispel the distracting thoughts in his mind. The Vecchia Falcon will not just serve as a flanker when it throws such powerful Xiting cavalry into the battlefield. So, what is the real purpose of the Vecchia Falcon?
Just when he was confused. A Xiting cavalryman with a green eagle on his shoulder rode up from behind. His loud voice finally mobilized the morale of the Xiting army. "My lord, an order came from the base camp! Use all your strength to intercept the defeated Hungarian army. King Khan agreed. No matter how many you kill, one head and two gold coins! Please go back, Lord Khan!"
Two gold coins per head!
The cavalry of the Xiting Army realized that the three million bounty was hopeless. The body shook slightly. This bounty may not be very attractive to the large tribe of Ruduowei, but for the small and medium-sized tribes who have put together some cavalry for the first time in this battle, it is a difficult task in a hundred years. When an opportunity came across, everyone worked hard to make a fortune. In the past, only big The opportunity that only the tribe had had, this time it fell to them. Naturally, no one was willing to leave like this, otherwise they would be the laughing stock on the grassland. To hunt down the defeated Hungarian army in exchange for some cost of sending troops was better than nothing. With so many Hungarian troops defeated in front of them, how many gold coins did they get? The most important thing is that the Xiting cavalry has been spared behind the Hungarian headquarters, which is really the best place to hunt down these defeated Hungarian troops.
"Since it is the order of King Khan, please carry it out!" Duo Weiyan turned around, waved his hand to the generals in the West Courtyard behind him, and looked at the sky in the distance with flashing eyes. There was no black smoke there, but But there is a sky that can never be broken through. Even the most soaring goshawk on the grassland cannot break through the highest cloud layer. Just like the battle in front of us, in fact, What he saw was just a part of the battle, which had already exceeded the scope of his control. The eagle dog in Xiting, under this sky, was afraid of how to fly, how high to fly, and even how much food to feed. , has long been under the control of that person, and he has reached such a position step by step. The idea of dominating the West Courtyard has not been unheard of, but it has become so ridiculous,
The empire has such a powerful army, such a rich and vast land, and how many elite soldiers and generals there are. Even if the grassland tribes include men, women, old and weak, can they stand in front of such a powerful empire and the man who controls the sky and the earth with one hand? In front of you, a little wave comes out?
Duo Weiyan looked around blankly, seeing the smoke and dust rising from the earth.
In the smoke and dust, the 90,000 Xiting cavalrymen were saying nothing, just urging their horses desperately, and with the momentum of the iron flow, they desperately wanted to join this battlefield! This is a warning to me, and it wants to tell me that the empire will not let the second king of Xiting appear, right? My brother-in-law!
Countless clusters of sharp arrows came from the opposite side and landed on the humans and horses, splattering with blood and causing screams of humans and horses neighing! The arrow array formed by the Xiting cavalry was pressing on the retreating path of the Hungarians. The desperate fight between the two armies had now begun. In order to escape, both sides opened all their strong bows and threw out a large rain of arrows. ! Duo Weiyan even led his bodyguards to stand on the front line, the strong bow in his hand making a buzzing sound and the string trembling violently. The sound of piercing the air was sharp and loud, and arrows shot out like sharp arrows tearing through the air. They trembled violently and pointed directly at a Hungarian clan leader opposite.
This clan leader was wearing a standard heavy armor and was shouting commands. He also looked like he had experienced battles and seemed to feel the danger. As soon as he turned around, he saw a flash of cold light in front of him, and a huge force tore the leather surface of the riding shield in his hand like a piece of leather, knocking the wooden shield into pieces all over the sky.
"Pah!" The front end of the arrow cluster sank into his shoulder without stopping, then tilted up, and passed out from the other end. With the last remaining force, it opened a big hole in his neck! The Xiongya clan leader turned over and fell to the ground with blood raining from the sky without even making a sound. Under the intensive rain of arrows, the Hungarians who rushed towards them finally collapsed and scattered. People and horses fell over one after another, cries were heard, and some people bumped around in a heap. He lost all the courage to attack and just wanted to escape from the large and fearful Western cavalry formation in front of him.
Facing such an arrow formation, fighting is a life-threatening situation! Duo Weiyan shot an arrow, but he no longer drew the arrow. He stepped on the stirrups and his crotch sank. The horse under the pressure made it neigh low, its front hooves could not scratch the ground, and it breathed heavily. With many years of equestrian skills and skill, the horse was unable to move forward under the pressure.
"The whole army is ready for close combat!" Duo Weiyan shouted, and the three arrow formations beside him, together with the cavalry in protective armor, immediately pressed down the strong bows in their hands, took a breather, and took the opportunity to recover from the numbness in his arms. The body also stood up slightly on the saddle, bent forward, and a pair of bright eyes had turned blood red, staring at the chaotic Hungarian brigade in front of them. Kenma felt the pressure on his back disappear from his crotch. Suddenly he roared angrily,
Everyone in the Duowei Department, follow me! "The depression in Duo Weiyan's heart dissipated a little, and he pulled out his sword, Prairie Blue Moon. He shouted behind him, raised his head and hooves, and rushed out like an arrow! Xiting didn't get the three hundred because of himself. 10,000 bounty. Then you can get this bounty yourself.
"Kill!" The armor rushed,
At this time, it was time for these defeated troops to collapse with all their strength. Thousands of Duowei cavalry were guarding Duo Weiyan, urging their horses to advance quickly. Tens of thousands of cavalry were following behind. The most elite Duowei cavalry at the front was gone. Without hesitation, he collided with the remnants of the Hungarian army that had collapsed.
The weapons flew, blood spattered, and the horses neighed miserably. The sparks that were splashed by the swords on the armor of both sides danced in the thick yellow dust and smoke splashed by the horses' hooves. This countercurrent shattered the Hungarian teeth. Although the Xiting cavalry was almost exhausted, they were equestrian masters after all. Familiar, fighting bravely,
The Huns had long lost their will to fight, and had been defeated by the imperial cavalry head-on. Now, both the officers and soldiers were only thinking about escaping, and how could they still have the heart to fight, when they suddenly encountered a large-scale counterattack of 90,000 Xiting cavalry. Intercept and kill, you don’t know it in an instant How many people were killed by stabbing and beheading, 300,000 Hungarian troops. In just one day, the main camp was defeated, and the main force was scattered with casualties. Corpses were piled up everywhere on the muddy meadow soaked with blood, and some looked like faces. Looking at the sky above my head unwillingly,
The Xiting cavalry didn't care whether the opponent was dead or not. They just cut off the Hungarian's head with a knife and hung it on his saddle. In the eyes of the Xiting cavalry, all this was money and they couldn't get three million gold coins. It doesn't matter if you can get more than ten or twenty gold coins, and these Hungarian war horses are also quite good. For the Xiting cavalry who regard horses as their private property, if they can get one or two good horses, this battle will be worth it. Okay, in front of this completely anxious Xiting cavalry, The Hungarians encountered a near-total massacre. They screamed in agony, some knelt on the ground and surrendered, and some simply lay in the pile of corpses to hold the corpses. Hours of fighting had exhausted their physical strength, and they also All their willpower and fighting spirit have collapsed. This is a massacre. The Huns who once roamed across Central Europe have always enjoyed driving away and massacring other people. They did not expect that they would also experience this. A day of mass murder
Standing on the battlefield with endless corpses, Duo Weiyan looked to the west.
On the western skyline, dozens of columns of black cavalry were released towards this side and began to stop. Behind these black cavalry, a human wave of cavalry had appeared, opening up the front. The golden falcon battle flag danced above the heads of the cavalry. The person who looked like an imperial general at the head slowly lowered the stabbing gun in his hand. Then tens of thousands of stabbing spears were also flattened, flashing a cold light!
The setting sun in the distant sky is casting a ray of red afterglow,
In the area where the Xiting cavalry counterattacked and intercepted, hundreds of thousands of corpses were shocking. A huge ring was formed around the interception area. Broken limbs and remains were everywhere, and bright red blood seeped into the soil.
The dense blood-colored potholes, large and small, make this place as terrifying as the legendary hell. The terrifying battlefield with no end in sight,
There were piles of corpses, broken spears and spears stuck on the battlefield, broken spears and heavy swords everywhere, and human and horse corpses piled up like mountains. There are also hands and feet protruding from the mountain of corpses, and flags are placed diagonally on them. The red earth, red people, and red rivers
"This guy..."
Looking at the almost hellish pile of corpses on the battlefield, looking at the stream of human blood all over the ground, looking at the smoke and dust that almost turned red, Salon took a deep breath and glanced back at the black cavalry behind him. Instead of speaking, he stepped on the stirrups fiercely, urged the war horse, and headed towards the mountain of corpses and sea of blood in front of him.
It seems that the red land in front of you does not exist at all, the empire! empire! That battle wasn't such a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature. The novels will be better and updated faster!
