“Urgent gathering!”

The white moonlight fell like mercury in the ice castle. Liu Meng, the head of the first battalion of the first battalion, stepped on the moonlight and returned to the ice tower where Bendu was temporarily on standby. His eyes swept coldly over his subordinates who were lying or lying, and suddenly he shouted like a tiger's roar. "Emergency gather!" The personal soldiers next to him blew the whistle on the side. The harsh whistle made the hundreds of people in the ice castle stand up quickly like conditioned reflexes and start line up.

Yuchi Gong stood up quickly with his sword in his hand, his eyes full of hope.

Liu Meng announced the reason for the sudden assembly. Tonight, the four temporary cavalry battalions will be out of seclusion and launch a night attack. In order to cooperate with the operation of the cavalry battalion, the infantry battalion, the combat chariot battalion and the artillery battalion will cooperate to support the battle tonight.

"All crossbowmen immediately followed me to the top of the city to prepare for long-range support, heavy infantry, sword and shield soldiers, and spearmen continued to stand by on the spot."

The excitement on Yuchi Gong's face faded away like a tide. He was stunned, his heart full of loss. Cheng Mingzhen, Li Wenxiang, Wu Wenguang and the other three had excited expressions. They were all crossbowmen in the Chariot Battalion. Hearing the order to disband, Yuchi Gong said unwillingly: "Du Tou, we are all equipped with bows, and we can also provide long-range support to the cavalry."

Liu Meng looked at Yuchi Gong and said with a dark face: "Yi Shi, obey the order."

"Dutao, I'm very accurate in shooting archery, really." Yuchi Gong was still fighting for it, and Cheng Yaojin quickly said, "My archery skills are also very good, please count me as one."

"Have you forgotten Yi Shuai's words? The soldiers' duty is to obey! The above order is to have crossbowmen in the chariot battalion, no heavy infantry or spearmen. Stay here and don't make trouble. We have three thousand longbowmen and four thousand crossbowmen to provide support to the cavalry tonight, which is completely enough. No matter how many there are, there is no place to stand in the city." After saying that, Liu Meng ignored these two first-class soldiers who have been very troublesome since joining the chariot battalion.

Yuchi Gong and Cheng Yaojin retreated helplessly. Cheng Mingzhen squeezed at the two of them with some pride. Then, while the two of them gritted their teeth, they happily followed Liu Meng out of the tower with their own crossbow machine. They all had a total of forty crossbowmen. All of them went to fight.

The moonlight tonight was very bright, which made the Tongluo people under the city helpless. While filling the moat in a crazily, they had to bear more casualties. However, seeing that only the last trench was left, the Tongluo people's attack became more fierce tonight, and more troops were invested. In addition to leaving a reserve cavalry, Udir had sent most of the troops to fill the trench. At this time, he no longer cared about the main army or the auxiliary soldiers.

The horn is melodious and the drums are like thunder.

Listening to the sound of drums and horns on the opposite side, Cheng Mingzhen's heart also jumped wildly. All the crossbowmen in the east camp had already arrived at the city and the two ice castles on both sides. Under the moonlight, the ice castles emitted a faint light. In order to cooperate with the cavalry's raid, there were only a few torches on the city, which seemed a little deserted, but teams of crossbowmen were constantly coming to the city. Not only were there a series of crossbowmen in front of the battlements, but behind them. The longbowmen were also lined up into dense square formations, waiting for the formation. In addition, the gunmen of the artillery regiment had already stood in front of the crossbows and catapults, and prepared for the attack.

Cheng Mingzhen and his two righteous brothers Li Wenxiang and Wu Wenguang were lined up three feet high and more than a thousand steps wide on the wall of the ice castle, near the left side, standing behind the battlements that were over chest high. He poked his head slightly, and his vision was very good under the moonlight. Tong Luoren was filling the trenches madly under the city, and bursts of excitement howls from time to time, as if they had opened the gate of the ice castle. Thousands of people were crowding under the city, frantically transporting soil to fill the trenches. The scene was very shocking when they watched it at close range. He swallowed hard, and calmed his heart that was jumping faster and faster. Li Wenxiang and Black Otter beside him also breathed heavily. It was the first time that the two teenagers really participated in such a front-line battle. Before, they were just passing military orders by following Yi Shuai.

Liu Meng walked over with a pair of Fuyuan crossbows that normally require two people to fire. He whispered to the forty crossbowmen in Bendu: "Be careful to obey the orders. No arrows are allowed to be fired without orders. Have you heard?"

Cheng Mingzhen nodded vigorously, his eyes crossed the helmets above the crossbowmen on his side, and looked at the top of the ice tower next to him. This ice tower was not only where the soldiers were waiting to rest, but also where the stone-catted cannon cars were installed on the top of the tower. At the same time, it was also where the flags were directed to the battle.

Without waiting for a long time, as the sound of drums sounded, high poles stood up on the ice towers. Not only were there lanterns hanging on them, but there were also two flag bearers on them.

The lanterns lit up, one, two, three, and seven lanterns lit up, and at the same time the trumpeter blew the trumpet of attack.

The attack began, and Liu Meng and other front-line command officers blew the iron whistle in their mouths.

"Prepare!"

The sound of horns, drums, whistles, shouts, and various sounds sounded almost at the same time. Cheng Mingzhen felt the blood in his body boiling. He almost reflexively began to wind the strings and fit a crossbow according to the previous training steps, and then aimed.

"put!"

With a command, the arrows fell like rain. In fact, there was no need to aim at it at all, but a distance of dozens of steps, and the enemy stood so densely, so many of their crossbowmen shot at the same time, and the crossbow arrows fell like rain. Tongluo people did not expect that the Han crossbowmen's crossbowmen had been weak for three days, and suddenly rose up again in the middle of the night. A large number of crossbow branches were fired, and a wave of crossbows took away countless people under the rain of crossbows.

At this time, there were another drum sound in the city, but the longbowers on the main fort and the sides of the fort were ordered to shoot arrows.

A louder sound came from the front, left and right sides, and the whole sky became much brighter. The longbowers of the arrow formation launched rockets, with three thousand rockets being shot into the sky at the same time, and then roaring over the Tongluo people who were desperately filling the trenches in front of the pass.

After three days of rest, the archers on the city were finally showing off their power again. Under the dense shooting of crossbowmen who didn't have enough capital, the Tongluo people who were filling the trench were shot and cried and shouted at their parents, and ran away with their heads in their arms.

The fierce attack of the crossbowmen was just an appetizer tonight. Yi Feng never thought that the crossbowmen on the city could directly annihilate an elite and fierce cavalry.

The crossbowmen were pouring out arrows, and the artillery soldiers of the artillery regiment finally completed the preparation for loading the crossbow and began to fire. Heavy rocks, ice bombs, and even fuel-filled fireballs, as well as large crossbow guns, hit the Tongluo people under the city.

Just after this terrifying and strong attack, the gate of the ice castle finally opened slowly, the suspension bridge was lowered, and returned to the deep trench.

The Tongluo people, who were covered with crossbowmen and artillery, felt the land under them constantly shaking.

Many experienced Tongluo cavalry showed unbelievable expressions on their faces. Such shock was definitely a sign that a large number of cavalry were galloping. If the Han people dared to send cavalry to attack them at night on the plains, they would only want to ask for it. But at this time, they were caught off guard under the rain of bows and crossbows that were suddenly covered by the Han people's storm, and their formation was completely dispersed. At this time, the Han people's cavalry suddenly came out again, which was really a nightmare.

Many Tongluo people who were holding big wooden shields and struggling to resist the bow and arrow finally screamed in terror: "Escape!"

The wooden shield can block the shooting of the crossbow, but it cannot block the impact of the cavalry's iron hooves.

Just like a pack of wolves suddenly appeared in the dark, a torrent of cavalry composed of 11,000 Xi warriors was rushing out of the ice fortress and rushed towards them like a flood breaking through the dike. The first battalion of elite temporary cavalry composed of personal guards of the leaders of the Xi tribes, three large and small, large and small, rushed in front, and the third and fourth cavalry battalions of the three newly recruited Xi people, followed closely.

The dull and harsh sound of horse hooves rolled in like thunder. These Xi warriors who were once looked down upon by the Tongluo people are now supported by the Sui army's crossbowmen, and are now sending a momentum like a storm coming. Under the raid of this lightning-thrust cavalry, the Tongluo people, who had just been stunned by the Sui army's crossbowmen, were destroyed like a native chicken and a tile dog. The Tongluo people who fled in all directions finally made a scream of horror and despair in front of their opponents who had once despised and disdained.

The 11,000 Xi cavalry led by Su Zhi personally launched a complex counterattack on the Tongluo people. In the middle of the night, the 11,000 cavalry suddenly broke out, breaking the Tongluo people who had been beaten into a formation by the Sui army's crossbows and cannons. In the battle under the city, although the Xi cavalry supported by the crossbowmen were not as strong as the Tongluo people, the Tongluo people were exhausted during this period and were exhausted. On the contrary, the Xi people were replenishing their energy and resting for a long time. Moreover, whenever the Tongluo people tried to sort out the formation, they would always be attacked by the Sui people's long bows and crossbows and cannon cars coming to the front and left and right sides. Under such circumstances, the Tongluo people could only retreat again and again, missing the best opportunity to stabilize the situation, and were killed by the Xi people, killing countless tribal warriors.

At the critical moment, Udir personally led 3,000 reserve teams to rescue the formation, and finally blocked the charge of the Xi people, responded to the retreating Tongluo cavalry, and then retreated five miles westward, leaving the longbow crossbow on the Sui army city, and then stabilized the formation.

After finally avoiding the crossbow of the Sui people, facing the Xi people who still dared to chase them, Udir was so angry that he ordered the Leopard Cavalry to fight back. Udir believed that in the cavalry battle, ten Xi people would not be their opponents.

The anger made Udir forget one very important thing, that is, they were not only enemies in the east, but also a Sui army dozens of miles behind them.

When Udir and the angry Tongluo cavalry began to fight back against the Xi cavalry and the two sides fought in the valley under the moonlight, Shan Xiongxin and Qin Qiong had already brought more than 2,000 cavalry to the west side of the battlefield.

"General, we will come in time, attack!" Su Zhi's son stayed in the west and followed the Shan Xiongxin Cavalry Battalion to see that the two sides were fighting fiercely, so he quickly suggested.

Shan Xiongxin stood on the hillside, looking at the battlefield from afar, but shook his head slowly: "Don't be anxious, the Tongluo people have not put all their troops in yet. It is not the best time to fight out now."

Qin Qiong looked at Kedu's anxious look and suggested to Shan Xiongxin: "I think the young general Kedu can go to the Xi army, let them defeat the defeat and retreat, and lead the Tongluo people to pursue us, and then we will take advantage of the chaos and fight behind our backs."

"Is this a solution? Can the young general be willing to go?"

"I'll go right away."

Kedu took a small team of cavalry to venture into the battlefield, passed through the Tongluo cavalry, and finally arrived at the Xi people formation and found Su Zhi. Under the Jin Sanlu, Su Zhi looked a little ugly. They raided more than 7,000 Xi cavalry tonight, and there were also powerful support from the Sui army's previous crossbows. However, after the initial momentum at the city, the Tongluo people are now at a loss, and they are already at a disadvantage.

When Man Yue, the daughter of the blood-stained robe, appeared in front of her with her son Kedu, Su Zhi showed a look of joy: "Have the Sui Army Cavalry Battalion arrived? Where are they now?" Before the war, Yi Feng had already told him that in this battle tonight, the Xi brothers were the protagonists. Not only would the crossbowmen start the show and provide support, but the Sui Army Cavalry Battalion will also be transferred to the battlefield to support.

"The cavalry battalion is behind the Tongluo people. General Shan and General Qin asked me to tell my father..."

Su Zhi looked into the battlefield in the distance, pondered for a moment, and finally slapped his thigh, "Okay, let's do what the two generals said."

The sound of gold sounded, and the Xi people began to retreat. Wudier, who had been staring at the battlefield, showed a ferocious look on his face: "It's so easy to run away. Deer is just a leopard's food. He dares to mess with leopards at any time. After being messed with, he still wants to run away. He sends orders and blows his horns. Don't let these deer escape into the ice castle and kill them all."

"Kill them all!" The angry Tongluo people shouted, and the soldiers chased after Udir, and all the reserve cavalry that had just been retained by Udir finally broke out.

The Xi cavalry desperately retreated eastward, and the Tongluo cavalry chased after him with one chasing and the other running. Soon the Tongluo formation had become increasingly wider and the back was finally unprepared.

Everything was going smoothly as expected, Shan Xiongxin and Qin Qiong laughed loudly.

"It's time for us to play, kill!"

The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

More than 2,000 soldiers from Huaihuang Cavalry Battalion and hundreds of Xi people's cavalry suddenly emerged from behind the Tongluo people, giving a severe blow that Tongluo people did not expect.

Shan Xiongxin waved the Zaoyang spear and a horse Guangxian, leading the cavalry to attack the left side of the back of the Tongluo people, while Qin Qiong held a long spear and jumped up the spear, leading a cavalry to attack the right side of the back of the Tongluo people. The two cavalry were like two powerful iron pliers, clamping the back team of the Tongluo people. The powerful iron pliers easily crushed the rear wings of the Tongluo people. The two cavalry began to join together and penetrated directly into the leopard flag of Wudier.

Su Zhi had also discovered the sudden change behind the Tongluo people. Su Zhi had almost passed away from the defeated Su Zhi, who was chased and was defeated. He quickly ordered a turn around to fight back. The Xi army sounded the horn of attack, and teams of Xi cavalry turned around and turned around and rushed into the Tongluo army formation.
