Chapter 430 Besieged on all sides

Author: Gongsun Wujiu

"Impossible! Impossible! How could there be such an elaborate ambush here!"

“How did the Han people do it under our noses?”

"Are all our scouts blind?"

"Raise your shield, raise your shield!"

Ma Jiandong shouted angrily. He had discovered the Han army's crossbowmen hiding behind the trench.

The well-trained Western Tianzhu cavalry tried their best to wake up from the panic and tried to reorganize. Unfortunately, Wu Zheng did not give them a chance.

Wu Zheng drew an arrow and stood up suddenly from the grass!

"wind!"

Following his order, more than 300 Han army crossbowmen fired their crossbows at the same time.

A dense rain of arrows enveloped the attacking Western Tianzhu cavalry formation.

The sharp arrows whizzed through the air, and the dull sound of arrows was heard again from the Xitianzhu team fifty steps away.

"Mount your horse and come in!"

The war horse that had been lying on its side in the grass was pulled up by the soldiers. Wu Zheng lifted the reins of the war horse and raised the horse's bridle:

"Second and third sons, come in!"

Two hundred Han cavalry roared to kill the Tianzhu cavalry in the west.

The distance of fifty steps was approaching in an instant, and the chaotic Western Tianzhu cavalry had no time to react.

"Han Cavalry! Fight! Fight!"

It was finally time to fight with open swords and guns! The furious Western Tianzhu cavalry screamed wildly and brandished their swords to face the enemy, and the orderly formations became chaotic again.

"Ping gun!"

Wu Zheng shouted loudly, and two hundred Han cavalry rushed into the enemy's formation like the wind.

In an instant, more than sixty enemy soldiers were knocked off their horses.

What's more important is that after this rush, the Western Tianzhu cavalry was in chaos.

Ma Jiandong found that the attacking enemy troops were not many, only about two hundred horses. This discovery made him even more angry.

"Despicable Han dog!"

He roared loudly,

"Warriors, charge...kill the Han dogs!"

Ma Jiandong roared and personally led his troops towards this desperate Han army.

Facing the charging Han cavalry, he was extremely confident.

As soon as the front group of the Western Tianzhu cavalry came into contact with the Han army, chaos broke out in the rear group.

The Han military officer who was lurking aside suddenly appeared like a ghost.

They boldly cut into the rear of the Western Tianzhu army and cut apart the enemy before they could react.

Then he used a long knife and slashed at the Western Tianzhu cavalry indiscriminately.

How can a cavalry that has lost its horse speed be an opponent of elite infantry in close combat? The Western Tianzhu cavalry was in chaos again.

Nehru on the right found that the Western Tianzhu cavalry on the left was about to collapse and immediately led troops to rescue them.

Unfortunately, due to the terrain, his cavalry could not move quickly at all.

"Warriors, dismount and charge!"

Nehru quickly issued new orders.

"wind!"

But at this time, another Han army under the command of Yu Chilin had also blocked the way.

The powerful arrow array of the Han army blocked the path forward of Nehru's army.

Amir saw this scene from a distance and suddenly felt uneasy. The number of Han troops was obviously inconsistent with what was shown in the intelligence.

"What's going on in Surle? Why did the Han army suddenly have so many more soldiers!"

Surle heard this and said bravely: "General, the Han army should have incorporated the young men from the transport team into the army!"

Amir heard the words and looked at the battlefield ahead with doubt.

He naturally knew that the Han men he used had to undergo two months of training every year starting from the age of seven or eight.

But it was still unbelievable to him that ordinary young men could have such strong fighting power.

"Surle, immediately check whether there are any Han troops within twenty miles of the battlefield!"

Amir quickly issued new orders, and he felt as if he had fallen into the trap of the Han army.



On the battlefield, Wu Zheng took the lead in charging into the enemy's ranks with a horse in his hand, and knocked away two enemy cavalry in one glance.

With a backhand blow, he stabbed a cavalryman who was about to carry out a sneak attack to death. The three enemy corpses fell off their horses almost at the same time. The horses that had lost their master's control screamed in panic and scattered in all directions.

The morale-boosted Han cavalry roared close behind them, and followed Wu Zheng into the charging ranks of the Tibetan army.

"Draw the sword!"

Wu Zheng roared, and the Han cavalry behind him almost simultaneously abandoned their lances and pulled out the Huanshou sword from their waists.

The Han cavalry were like wolves charging into a herd of sheep, swooping and biting in all directions. Wherever the long sword touched, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the huge impact swept away the Western Tianzhu people who hadtily resisted.

The clanking of swords, the neighing of horses, the shouts of soldiers on both sides fighting for life and death, the sickening muffled sound of swords cutting through armor and cutting into human bodies... all mixed together, like playing a symphony

.

Nearly a thousand Western Tianzhu cavalry were killed by 200 Han cavalry and 200 Han military officers.

Ma Jiandong couldn't believe his eyes. Before a quarter of an hour, his troops collapsed inexplicably!

Dozens of cavalry around him desperately resisted the impact of the surrounding Han troops. The other subordinates were completely killed and scattered, and they ran away to no one knows where!

Many Western Tianzhu soldiers who lost their horses ran desperately to the rear where Amir's battle flag was.

But the Han army's crossbowmen had already advanced at this time. The Han army's bows and arrows shot them down mercilessly on the plateau.

Ah~~~~~~~ah~~~~~~~~~~~`

Ma Jiandong absolutely could not accept such a defeat. He threw away his helmet, screamed and waved his sword, and rushed towards the Han army crazily, regardless of the guards' dissuasion.

The dull military bugle sound of the people of Western Tianzhu sounded again.

It was impossible for Amir to watch his soldiers fall under the swords and arrows of the Han army.

The crazy Ma Jiandong could no longer hear the bugle call at this time. His anger and humiliation made him just want to fight these Han dogs to the death.

Wuwuwu, the horns of the Han army sounded, and the Han soldiers who were killing suddenly turned their horses' heads and began to retreat!

"The Han dogs are running away... Warriors attack! Kill all the Han dogs!"

Ma Jiandong clamped his legs together and urged his horse to pursue the Han army that was leaving Juechen. "Kill... kill all the Han troops..."

At this moment, a sharp arrow suddenly hit Ma Jiandong's throat, and the powerful impact almost pulled him off his horse.

The muscles in the neck contracted violently, and a stiff feeling spread from the throat to the whole body.

Ma Jiandong stubbornly opened his mouth and shouted again, but unfortunately what spewed out was not a high-pitched shout, but a stream of sticky blood!

He looked down in horror and saw a trembling arrow!

The soldiers around Ma Jiandong were stunned for a moment.

Their leader's neck was completely penetrated by a sharp arrow at some point!

The guards looked at each other in confusion. No one knew what to do. They just stared stupidly with their mouths open as their general lowered his head numbly. There was a strange gurgling sound in his throat, and blood gurgled out from his mouth and nose like a fountain.

Ma Jiandong slowly raised his hand in a vain attempt to pull it out. Just as his hand grabbed the arrow shaft, his body suddenly fell off the horse.

The war horses in a circle were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly. Finally, someone screamed strangely as if they had lost their soul:

"The general is dead...General Ma Jiandong is dead!"

The sudden death of Ma Jiandong caused the Western Tianzhu army to become confused for a while.

When Amir led the soldiers to the battlefield, the Han army had already calmly retreated into the car formation...
