Chapter Five: The Way Back

Chapter 5 Return (Part 2) After it was completely light, the Sui soldiers repulsed a sneak attack by the rebels. Yang Xuangan's men traveled all night, effectively evading the scouts sent by Yuwen Shu to patrol the wild, but they did not escape.

After the morning sun in early autumn, the night attack turned into a skirmish. Just after getting up, the sleepy-eyed officers and soldiers rushed out of the tiger prison and fought in confusion with the exhausted rebels for half an hour. After half an hour, the enemy and our generals found out who had less.

It’s cheap, so we all withdraw our troops

There were more than 60,000 rebels who came to wipe out the tiger's beard, but the Sui army gathered at Hulao Pass at this moment was as high as 350,000. Since the number of soldiers under his command was five times that of the attacking enemy, Yu Wenshu naturally would not shrink back.

After waiting for the enemy to attack in the pass, after eating the first meal, he once again mobilized his troops and generals, with the navy commander to protect his son, Wu Benlang and Chen Leng's troops on the left wing, and the imperial guard general Zhang Jin on the right

, You Wuhou General Zhao Xiaocai's troops were the right wing, and he personally led the central army, with Yu Wenshi and his Xiongwu Camp as the rear guard, and went out to invite the battle.

The rebels faced the enemy with the most traditional infantry phalanx. Except for the thousands of warriors standing at the front, most of them did not have armor. However, the morale of this team was obviously slightly higher than that of the troops led by Li Mi and Han Shihe.

The army was also very neat. Thousands of war flags of various colors were fluttering in the morning wind, and they seemed to have a decisive momentum. The farmers holding bamboo sticks and wooden sticks could defeat the enemy troops several times their own.

Standing tall in front of me, showing no sign of shrinking.

"The enemy general who led the army this time is a guy who really knows how to use troops!" Yu Wenshiji heard someone behind him whispering that this sentence was very insightful. He turned around and tried to chat with the other party.

But I saw a few pairs of slightly frightened eyes

Cui Qian, Murong Luo, and Li Mengchang, these guys who once patted him on the shoulder and laughed at him for looking like a pretty boy, immediately closed their mouths and held their heads high when the supervisors turned around. They were trying to express respect for their superiors.

, but the respect shown by several people at this moment was as cold as the Bingyu scribe and felt a bitter taste in his mouth, but he didn't know what to say to ease the atmosphere. He, who was always known for his sharp tongue, was silent for a rare moment.

He replied, smiled, slowly turned his head away, and looked at Xuzi, who was standing side by side with him. What he saw on the other person's face was a different kind of concentration and calmness. "He was observing the enemy troops! He was not disturbed by yesterday's

The influence of the dinner party!" Yuwen Shiji breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his body was exhausted after a night of not sleeping, and his legs were so weak that he could hardly hold the saddle of the war horse.

The low horn sounded, and the sad and sad arrows streaked across the clear sky, casting a thick shadow on the ground. After a moment, the shadow dissipated, and thousands of red flowers bloomed in the morning sun. Some "flowers"

There is still a faint green mist on the sky, as if the souls who are attached to life are dancing gracefully

The sound of wind, shouts, war drums, and cries intertwined together to play a tragic hymn. Yuwenshi mustered up his energy and ordered himself to listen to the tragedy demonstrated by countless lives. He did not dare to lower his head. This was just the beginning. The real

The climax is yet to come. God does not provide for the number of people. The side with superior weapons and armor will definitely win. A slight negligence of the commander, a general's carelessness, or even a sudden wind or rain may change the entire situation of the battle.

After three tentative shots at each other, the enemy and we each stabilized their positions 250 steps apart. This is almost the limit distance that ordinary walking bows can reach. At this point, the arrow has already reached the end of its powerful crossbow, even if one of the two sides is capable of holding back four.

Even though Shi Gong is a super powerful character, he can't guarantee that he will hit the target even at such a long distance.

The sound of war drums and curses followed in the military formations of both sides, deafening. It is said that doing so can increase the morale of one's own side and undermine the confidence of the enemy. But Yuwen Shiji never thought so. Except for the bandits, no one

The general will tell his men that the battle everyone is engaged in is an evil deed that should be despised. Both sides will think that they are righteous. As for who is right, it will not be clear until one of them falls.

Sure enough, in the noisy shouting and cursing, Yu Wenshiji differentiated sentences such as "Aiding Zhou to do harm!" "Working for tigers!" On his side, he responded with "Traitor!" "Scoundrel!"

"As the curses grew louder, the drum beat became more and more intense, like an invisible knife tip, coming and going in mid-air.

The quietest place at the moment was that the two generals under the banners of both sides and the core staff of both sides did not participate in the scolding. They just sat astride their horses and listened calmly to the other's innovations in rhetoric.

"Dad is looking for each other's flaws. The enemy generals obviously have the same idea!" Yu Wenshiji suddenly realized the true purpose of the generals on both sides. He immediately turned his head habitually and tried to share this discovery with Xuzi, even though he had already fought side by side.

After winning several battles, neither of them mastered much of the essence of formation and battle. However, Yuwen Shiji jumped into Kong Xuzi and was no longer in his original position. The only general in the Xiongwu camp was Zhang Xiubao.

Holding a pile of command flags, he stood there in a daze with sleepy eyes.

Seeing that Yu Wenshiji was looking over, Zhang Xiu quickly cheered up and gently looked towards the front of his army. Yu Wenshiji followed Zhang Xiu's instructions and found that Li Xu was riding Heifeng, slowly surrounding him.

When his brothers inspected Wang Qijin, Li Anyuan, Wu Dong, Qin Gang, Qin Xingshi, these core generals of the Xiongwu Camp at different levels, he called them out one by one, whispered a few words in his ear, and quickly ran back to his team.

"What is this silly boy going to do? Is he going to take the initiative to ask for a fight?" Yu Wenshiji thought in surprise.

Due to too many injuries, Xu Zi's body was covered with medical cloth by Sun Jin, the army doctor. He could no longer put on the black armor in a short time, so today he only wore a large soft leather armor, arms,

Her thighs, back, chest, etc. are all bulging, and she looks very funny in this outfit. If Asahi takes the lead in charging, it will obviously be like providing a target for the opponent's archers. Yuwen Shiji will definitely be very happy if he knows that his father

He agreed to Xu Zi's request for a fight and quietly removed this stumbling block for the Yuwen family. He galvanized his horse to catch up, preparing to stop Xu Zi's reckless behavior. After running a few steps, he suddenly saw Li Xu holding the black knife high.

rise and then fall heavily

"Only pursue the mastermind, never ask for help!" the core generals of the Xiongwu Camp shouted in unison.

"Only pursue the mastermind, never ask questions about the alliance!" The 30,000 soldiers of the Xiongwu Camp shouted in the same rhythm.

"Only pursue the mastermind, and the association will never ask!" "Only pursue the mastermind, and the association will never ask!" The shouts centered on the Xiongwu Camp and spread outward in waves. There was no pattern or change. It was always a simple but.

This simple sentence is worth thousands of words, covering up the noise between the two armies, suppressing the sound of drums, and breaking the eardrums of the rebel soldiers without missing a word.

This was a trick invented by Yu Wenshiji during the Battle of Liyang Guards. Li Xu followed it and moved it down to Hulao Pass to attack the enemy. It still worked. The rebels' shouts quickly softened, and even the drums lost their strength.

The veteran general Yu Wenshu was very good at seizing opportunities and gave a few instructions to the ordering soldiers. Soon, the war drums of the Chinese army began to actively cooperate with the shouts of the heroic brothers. Accompanied by the thunderous drums, more than 300,000 soldiers

Shouting out the same promise in unison

"Only pursue the mastermind, never ask for help!" The sound of landslides and tsunamis struck the rebels, making many people's faces turn pale, and their hands holding weapons continued to tremble.

According to the laws of the past dynasties, rebellion is a crime of confiscating the family and annihilating the clan. Whether the rebel soldiers join voluntarily or under coercion, except for a few whose families are extremely powerful, everyone else will fight from the first day they pick up the sword.

They all understood that they were on a road of no return. Yang Xuangan and Li Mi repeatedly emphasized this to everyone in their daily training. Either establish a new court, be granted a title of general, or die in battle. They want to go home and live with their wives and children.

Peaceful days, but there are no doors

But today, someone told them that there was still a way to survive after defeat. Although this promise was probably temporary, it still allowed the rebel soldiers who were gradually despairing of their future to see a way out.

Although, there is no glory in this way out

"Don't listen to them, they are lying!" The rebel general couldn't bear the risk of his troops being shaken, so he had to rush outside the battle in person to boost the morale of his troops. This man was at least fifty years old, with a wisp of hair floating on his chest.

The snow-white beard rode his horse back and forth in front of his brothers, and shouted angrily, "Don't believe them, they lie! Today we will either win or die in battle. We will die at our own doorstep, so we can go to Liaodong and die!"

"Either win or die in Henan and not go to Liaodong!" The old general's soldiers surrounded him and used their weak voices to counter the shouts of 300,000 people.

The calls made by dozens of people were very weak, but they were like a ray of sunshine that penetrated the clouds and fog. The hope of survival was once again shattered in the eyes of the rebel soldiers. They once again clenched their weapons, angry at Tianying Liaodong. It was a hellish place, although

There are many scoundrels in the market who are willing to go there to gain fame, but for ordinary people, it means that they will never look back.

"Die in Henan, don't go to Liaodong!" Someone held a wooden stick high, and as the old general shouted, gradually more and more people joined, thousands, tens of thousands, raising their hands high.

At this moment of kitchen knives, iron forks, and wooden sticks, they are not traitors, they are just a group of adventurous survivors. Everything they do is to survive, to live humbly on the land that their grandfathers and fathers opened up and cultivated.

If you die, you will die next to your ancestors, and your soul can look at your homeland at night.
