Wei Kui woke up leisurely, opened his dazed eyes and found that he was actually in a tent.
Lying on his left were Wei Cheng and Wei Xing. These two were not seriously injured thanks to Wei Kui's protection, but their physiques were incomparable to Wei Kui's. They were still resting at this time.
I don't know whether he was in a coma or asleep.
"Hey, you're awake?" Wei Kui struggled to twist his neck to the right, and found that the person speaking was Brother Du. Du Rong was leaning to the side, holding a pamphlet in his hand and not knowing what he was studying. Seeing Wei Kui wake up,
Du Rong put the pamphlet away in his arms and walked to Wei Kui to talk to him.
"How long have I been sleeping?" Wei Kui lay on his back with his eyes empty.
"Not much, just one day." Du Rong replied. "The Haogao people withdrew before dawn. Later, a senior official came forward and asked us to pack up and evacuate the camp. We retreated a full fifty miles.
.”
"Fifty miles..." Wei Gui murmured, not knowing what he was thinking.
"We at this level definitely don't know the specific battle situation, but the eight infantry battalions were compiled into six, and the men and horses of the Wansu Battalion were dispersed into various battalions..." Du Rong analyzed Wei Kui in a serious manner,
"A conservative estimate is that a thousand people were killed in the battle. The main reason is that the damage to equipment and materials was a bit too serious."
"The Haogao people are not good at fire attacks because their foundry industry is not developed and they are short of arrows. This time they have spent a lot of money." Du Rong was still explaining to Wei Kui.
"Then why don't we attack them with fire?" Wei Kui asked. He had seen the horror of fire. He would rather fight with a dozen people than be surrounded by fire.
"Sigh... The Xiegao people have lived in the desert for a long time and are very familiar with the terrain. It is difficult for us to find the opponent's camp, and using rockets against their guerrilla forces has little effect. It is too extravagant and wasteful. Not to mention that the opponent's camps are mostly made of leather.
"It's not as easy to ignite as our linen tents..." Du Rong sighed, "In the desert, people are just rabbits and we are bastards...it's so easy to tease us."
Seeing Du Rong's sighing expression, Wei Kui was unwilling to continue talking, so he changed the subject and said: "Last night...were you the ones who saved us in the end?"
When he mentioned this, Du Rongke got excited, and his expression of regret just now turned into a proud one in an instant: "Your brother, I showed off my power yesterday. I single-handedly challenged a dozen of them without losing, and finally cut them down."
I lost half of them, and the other half fled in despair on their horses..."
Uh... Wei Kui couldn't help but be dumbfounded. This big brother who can only tell wisecracks, usually slack off when he can in training, and the only thing he cares about is eating, can he be so powerful?
"Don't listen to his bragging." Li Dayong walked into the camp carrying a basin of water. He originally wanted to wait outside for Du Rong and Wei Kui to finish talking before coming in, but Du Rong gave in.
He really couldn't bear it anymore.
"Let me tell you what happened at that time..." Li Dayong was relatively reliable. He put the basin next to Wei Kui and wiped his face while talking. Du Rong was
He didn't get angry even after being refuted. He sat aside and took out the pamphlet in his arms and read it carefully.
Last night, it was indeed Du Rong who shouted to the Haogao people, "It's better to fight alone or together." He was also majestic when he was caught in the formation with an iron halberd and flew to the rescue.
Du Rong was still thinking about what kind of opening remarks he should use to calm the opponent, but in the end he copied the words of the Hao Gao cavalry who was beaten by them. It was quite impressive to think about it.
As expected, the words "should we fight alone or together" really shocked the Haogao people. In addition, Du Rong first flew his halberd to kill people, and then pulled out the iron halberd and blocked it in front of Wei Kui and others with ease and without any sloppiness.
This made these Haomo cavalry believe that the black-faced man in front of them was a master.
The cavalrymen hesitated for a while, and one of them muttered something. Then they saw three or four cavalrymen suddenly charging out with their scimitars in their hands, approaching Du Rong.
The explosive power of the Hao Gao cavalry troops was fully revealed at this moment. Several scimitars left a trail of cold light in the air, and the afterimages fell on Du Rong like a strong wind.
Du Rong was not afraid at all, and he was not at all like his usual sneaky and sneaky demeanor. Instead, he shouted: "Well done!" He immediately raised the iron halberd in his hand to face the blade.
The iron halberd in Du Rong's hand rotated rapidly, blocking the top of his body like a shield. The swords carrying the high-speed impact of the horse were all knocked away by the iron halberd.
After the first sword missed, the four Niegao people turned their horses and slashed around Du Rong like a revolving lantern. They saw a black dragon rising and falling in the air, and three or four tiger claws flying in the sky. Even the Niegao people who were watching around were silent in their hearts.
Praise that this person is truly a hero.
What a good Du Rong, he actually used foot against cavalry, one against four, and fought evenly with his opponent, without losing the upper hand.
"Stop." The leader of the Haogao team suddenly said, and the four cavalrymen retreated after hearing this. The team leader turned over and dismounted, holding a horse-killing sword that was as long as a person and half a foot wide in his right hand.
Walk towards Du Rong.
The squad leader raised his fingers towards Du Rong and said with interest, "Come on, let's challenge him to a duel."
Du Rong didn't seem to hear what the other party said, but his eyes were fixed on the weapon in the other party's hand. The horse-killing sword looked like a very heavy thing, but how did it compare to Wei Kui's iron halberd?
"That gadget of yours looks good, can you lend it to me?" At this time, Du Rong actually still had time to worry about the other party wanting to practice weapons.
Weapons are the soul of a warrior. How can there be any reason for two armies to care about what their opponents want in front of them? Du Rong's words are undoubtedly inciting the anger of the squad leader, but the squad leader is not afraid of Du Rong: "I'll send you to the underworld first."
King of Hell, let me burn another one for you."
The religious gods that the Xiegao people believe in are different from those of the Shengguo. The Xiegao people believe in shamanism, and the underworld and King Yama are the gods of the Shengguo. This team leader is quite generous, knowing that he wants to send Du Rong to the underworld of their Shengguo.
——It can be regarded as the fallen leaves returning to their roots.
The two men were about to duel, and the onlookers of the Haogao cavalry took off a waist drum each from their saddles, and beat the drums one after another to create a strange rhythm - various countries and civilizations have customs and traditions about beating drums to support battles on the battlefield.
, but what the Haogao people are doing now is more like a ritual. This drumming ceremony is also a kind of their religious customs. It is used in sacrifices, celebrations, expeditions, weddings and funerals, and life and death fights, and according to
The rhythm of the drums varies depending on the situation. The Xiegao people are also interesting. In this battlefield, when life and death are at stake, they still have time to watch the duel, put down their weapons and beat the drums - at this time, most of their tasks have been completed, and the Shengguo army has already
It is understandable that I am unable to resist.
The moment the strange drum beat sounded, the squad leader also rushed forward dragging his horse-killing sword.
The swords and halberds intersect, making a dull sound of metal collision. Both weapons are considered giant long-handled weapons, and naturally they are not as flexible as short swords and spears. In this kind of confrontation, the requirement for strength is even greater than skill -
-Whoever gives up his strength first will be close to death.
The drumming in the squad leader's ears suddenly stopped, and was replaced by bursts of screams.
Li Dayong and others came together with Du Rong. They first fought in a group and eliminated the Haogao man who shouted "single fight or together", and then encountered other small teams responsible for the cleanup. After experiencing a
After a hard fight, they finally forced the opponent back, and rushed to Wei Kui's place without stopping.
Before approaching this team, Du Rong laid out a strategy to Li Dayong and others - the dozen or so people at hand were obviously no match for a direct confrontation, and they could only wait for the opportunity to launch a sneak attack to rescue Wei Kui and the others.
He first acted as a bait to attract the opponent's attention, while Li Dayong and others took advantage of the natural cover of night and fire to approach quietly. When the opponent's attention was all on him, they attacked with all their strength, like a thunderous strike.
Try to use your energy to destroy the opponent.
"Isn't it too risky?" asked Ma Liuzi, who was also one of Du Rong's group. Judging from Du Rong's usual situation, he would probably be killed instantly if he attacked alone.
Du Rong did not speak, but glanced at Li Dayong, who also happened to look at him. As soon as their eyes met in the air, Li Dayong nodded, "Don't worry, Brother Du can do it
of."
Others may not be able to see it, but Li Dayong, as a trainer, knows it very well - Du Rong's muscles and bones are all hard-tempered, and he has been hiding his strength - and his true ability, even
Far above yourself.
The tactics were set, and everyone performed their duties. Du Rong was perfect as a bait. Not only did he attract the attention of the Xiegao people, but he even got an unexpected reward - the captain of the Xiegao people wanted to challenge the cavalry in a one-on-one duel.
He put down his weapons while beating drums to cheer...
At this time, the sneak attack by Li Dayong and others was also very successful. More than ten people used spears and other weapons from behind the cavalry who formed a circle to get straight to the rear!
The cavalrymen were still concentrating on admiring the duel and beating drums to cheer for their own people. How could they expect such a group of people to appear behind them? In an instant, several people were thrown off their horses. The horses were frightened and ran wildly.
When he got up, the scene suddenly became chaotic.
The squad leader suddenly felt bad when he heard the screams. When he turned around to look, he felt a chill in his chest - the iron halberd in Du Rong's hand actually pierced him. He slowly turned his head back to look at Du Rong.
, blood kept pouring out of his mouth, and his expression was very angry: "You... deceived us?"
Du Rong sneered with disdain, pulled out the iron halberd and let the team leader fall down: "Who said I lied to you? It's obvious that you chose to fight alone, and I chose to go together."
He leaned down and closed the squad leader's eyes, then picked up the horse-killing sword lying on the ground, "Hey, it's really heavy..."
The captain of the team was killed, and everyone was attacked in a hurry. The rest of the people were naturally unwilling to fight. The one who was still riding the horse didn't care whether his companions were dead or alive, so he rushed his horse and fled. But Du Rong
The others also brought their fainted companions one by one to the first camp to rest.
"Although it's not as outrageous as the one he boasted about killing more than a dozen, he really managed to defeat more than a dozen..." Li Dayong said to Wei Kui with a smile.
Wei Kui struggled and turned his head towards Du Rong, "Brother Du...why didn't I know you were so fierce?"
Du Rong stood up and walked to Wei Kui with a smile: "There are still many things you don't know!"
Just when everyone in the coma slowly woke up and discussed yesterday's crisis, several shouts suddenly came from outside the camp: "Pack your bags and prepare to withdraw!"
