Ten breaths are enough for the Turkic Rangers to form a momentum. Once the momentum is formed, the speed will be as fast as an arrow leaving the string.
If you try to escape then, you will be taking a lot of risks, but since Li Yuanji has made the decision, the brigade commander can't say anything more and can only follow Li Yuanji and continue to charge.
After taking ten breaths, rushing out twenty feet, and sending away more people, Li Yuanji turned his horse's head sideways and rushed to the right where the people were least, without saying a word.
The reason why we didn't turn the horse's head and run back was because it would take a lot of time to turn the horse's head once, and it would take another while to charge again.
This was enough time for the Turkic rangers to catch up behind them.
In addition, handing your back to the enemy is the same as handing your life to the enemy. If the enemy's dense arrows are not covered, even if they miss the person, they can still hit the horse.
Once the horse is injured and falls down, the man on the horse will naturally fall to the ground as well, making it easy for the enemy to catch up and harvest.
So we can only charge and retreat from both sides.
"Array up!"
After rushing out about fifty feet, the face of the Turkic Ranger appeared in front of everyone.
Li Yuanji didn't need any orders, the captain in charge of the Long Sword Army was the first to shout.
The long-sword soldiers quickly pinned their long swords diagonally on their saddles and drew out their horizontal swords from their waists.
The long knives were pinned diagonally in a row, shiny and bright. The Turkic rangers who rushed at the front cursed at them, and some even became timid and wanted to run away.
After all, the long sword soldier held his long sword at an angle, and the blade was just level with the Turkic Ranger's neck. After this round of hedging, the long sword soldier did not need to do anything, and the long sword he held could chop off countless heads.
It was the Turkic Rangers who took the initiative to deliver it to my door.
The most important thing is that the long knives are very dense. Even if the Turkic Rangers duck down to avoid one row of long knives, they cannot avoid the dozen or so rows behind them.
They were fighting cavalry, not infantry, so they couldn't stay lying down forever.
If you lie down and can't get up, you will become a lamb.
The horizontal sword in the hands of the long-sword army will easily kill them.
"Puff! Puff!"
Tuli's Buicks, who were supervising the battle, killed hundreds of panicked rangers in one go, and then barely managed to maintain the charging lineup.
The right wing and center troops also quickly surrounded them under Tu Li's command.
"kill!"
At the moment when the soldiers were in close combat, Li Yuanji had forgotten who he was. The sword in his hand cracked and slashed again and again without hearing it. The arrow missed and the scimitar fell on his armor and stomach, making a crackling sound. He seemed to hear
not see.
As for the situation of the long sword army behind him, he had forgotten it.
I don’t know how long it took, how many knives were struck, and how many people were killed. Li Yuanji finally came back to his senses amidst the heavy roars.
"Your Highness! Your Highness!"
"..."
Li Yuanji looked back and found that nearly 60% of the long-sword army behind him had been reduced. The remaining people were stained red with blood and could not see their faces clearly. Some people still had arrows and scimitars stuck in their bodies, and some people had scimitars stuck in their bodies.
Broken arm, injured leg.
Behind them is a bloody road hundreds of feet long.
Broken limbs and broken arms abounded on the bloody road. Horses and men who had been cut in half and whose heads had been cut off were also everywhere.
The blood was gathering at a very fast speed, gradually gathering into one piece, and slowly spreading out in all directions.
Some of the Turks continued to pursue, some were frightened and ran around, and some were afraid of fighting and did not dare to move forward.
"Continue to the right! Go around Lu's Township and return to camp!"
Li Yuanji tightened the reins of his horse and said as he ran.
You can't stop at this time.
No one from the Long Sword Army made a sound, so they followed silently, running and running until they reached the position of Lushi Township, where there were still Turks chasing after them.
During this period, some soldiers of the Long Sword Army fell off their horses due to excessive blood loss, and some died silently but were still lying on their horses. No one looked back, and no one dared to stop.
Because any time you look back, you may see your comrade dead, and any time you stop, it will give the Turks an opportunity.
"Yuanji's bravery is unparalleled in the world!"
Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Shentong, Li Deliang, Changsun Shunde, Yu Wenshiji, Cai Yungong, Yu Wenbao and others had been standing on the observation deck watching the changes on the battlefield.
Li Deliang sighed deeply after seeing Li Yuanji leading hundreds of people to kill the Turks' military formation of tens of thousands of people, leaving behind a road covered with corpses.
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin looked solemn as never before.
If Li Yuanji conquered the hearts of all the soldiers in his previous battle at Baijiapu, then this battle on the edge of the Baima River conquered the hearts of all the princes and ministers.
Li Yuanji is like a reincarnated overlord, even braver than the overlord. He is almost invincible without a powerful enemy appearing and without losing people's hearts.
This made Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin feel that their hope of making a comeback was even slimmer.
After all, in the past, when the overlord had not lost the hearts of the people, he was really invincible. Even Liu Bang, who had many outstanding people, had to give in when facing the overlord.
Li Yuanji was more brave than the Overlord, but he did not have the arrogance of the Overlord, nor was he inferior to the heroes of the world. Instead, he treated his veterans politely and led his talents generously, even in the face of Cai Yungong, Wei Zheng and other newly recruited Zhan Shifu and others.
Former ministers of Tiance Mansion can also be entrusted with important responsibilities.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Li Yuanji to follow the footsteps of the Overlord, so anyone who is an enemy of Li Yuanji and anyone who wants to take back power from Li Yuanji will have a hard time defeating him.
Changsun Shunde and Yu Wenshi had complicated expressions. They also saw that Li Shimin's hope of making a comeback was slim, so they were confused about what they would do in the future.
Should he continue to wait for Li Shimin to make a comeback, or should he simply prostrate himself as a minister under Li Yuanji like Cai Yungong, Wei Zheng and others?
Cai Yungong didn't have so many thoughts. He was just worried about Li Yuanji, worried that Li Yuanji would be injured, and worried that Li Yuanji would encounter danger later and risk his life.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So I kept persuading Li Shentong to quickly send someone to deal with Li Yuanji.
Li Shentong followed his instructions and immediately asked Yu Wenbao to lead a group of elite cavalry from the right side of the military camp to meet Li Yuanji.
Yu Wenbao rode his horse and ran as fast as he could, wishing he could give the horse a pair of wings and fly to Li Yuanji's side.
When Li Yuanji led the long sword army into the formation just now, the blood all over his body was burning. He wished he could replace the long sword army and follow Li Yuanji to charge into the Turkic formation.
…
When the moon is at its zenith.
Li Yuanji and his long-sword army finally bypassed Lushi Township, but the Turks behind them were still chasing after them, so they could not stop.
After passing nearly two miles through Lushi Township, I heard the rapid sound of horse hooves coming from ahead.
Li Yuanji clenched his sword almost subconsciously, and the long-sword soldiers behind him also became alert.
Everyone's heart felt heavy. The closer the sound of horse hooves came from ahead, the lower the heart sank.
"Your Highness! Yu Wenbao is here! Yu Wenbao is here!"
Yu Wenbao shouted anxiously from a distance on the horse's back, and kept kicking the horse's back in an attempt to make the horse go faster.
Li Yuanji breathed a long sigh of relief when he heard that his own people had arrived. The soldiers of the Long Sword Army also relaxed their vigilance, and then heard the sound of popping popping.
Li Yuanji looked back and saw that the soldiers of the Long Sword Army fell off their horses like dumplings. By the time Yu Wenbao and others arrived, there were less than twenty people still straddling the horses.
.
"Your Highness! Are you not injured?"
Yu Wenbao rushed to Li Yuanji and asked nervously.
Li Yuanji said quickly: "I'm fine. Let your people quickly pick up the brothers who fell off their horses and keep running!"
Yu Wenbao immediately opened his eyes and roared: "Straight bitch! How dare a bunch of bastards push His Highness to this point, I will kill them later!"
Li Yuanji said coldly: "This is an order!"
Yu Wenbao then gave up his plan to kill the pursuing Turks, and reluctantly led the men to pick up the long-sword soldiers who had dismounted their horses, and gave the long-sword soldiers who were still sitting on the horses
The military officer changed his horse.
At this time, the Turks just happened to catch up. Yu Wenbao became angry for a moment and shouted: "Your Highness, I found a low hill on the way here. Let's lead the Turks there and teach them a lesson there."
them!"
Li Yuanji originally wanted to refuse, because the soldiers of the Long Sword Army had already lost their strength, and some of them had fainted due to bleeding a lot. However, seeing that Yu Wenbao also brought many soldiers and horses, he immediately nodded and agreed.
, "Okay! Let's go there and ambush!"
Yu Wenbao happily greeted all the soldiers under his command, and led the soldiers of the Long Sword Army to the short hill as quickly as possible.
】
It is said to be a low hill, but in fact it is not a low hill, it is more like a small hill.
After Yu Wenbao arrived at the place, he called on the people to run up the mountain, hoping to give the Turks a dive.
Li Yuanji had previously used the same method to deal with the Turkic envoys in Xiaoguan, so he decisively adopted Yu Wenbao's suggestion.
However, after the Turks arrived, Yu Wenbao did not dare to mention the dive again, and Li Yuanji did not dare to let Yu Wenbao lead his men to charge down.
Because there were so many Turks chasing them, it made people’s scalp numb to watch them.
"You guys are really crazy. They are just chasing, and they actually sent nearly ten thousand people..."
Yu Wenbao didn't fight with the Turks, so he felt very unhappy. As he ran away behind the hill, he kept cursing.
Li Yuanji understood Yu Wenbao's mood, but was too lazy to talk to him.
Now was the time to run away, and he had no time to comfort Yu Wenbao.
The group of people ran all night, and it was not until dawn that they completely got rid of the Turks.
The Turks were originally prepared to continue the pursuit, but for some unknown reason, they suddenly retreated.
At noon, the group returned to the military camp.
After returning to the military camp, Li Yuanji was treated like a hero. Everyone cheered and shouted Wansheng of the Tang Dynasty.
However, Li Yuanji was exhausted and had no energy to deal with such a scene. After riding a horse around the camp and letting all the soldiers see his heroic appearance, he immediately returned to the Chinese army's tent and fell asleep.
