At about midnight the next day, Sha Qianli and Huang Wanshan summoned two hundred veterans and three hundred horse thieves who had just surrendered, and swaggered away to the racecourse northwest of Zhezhe City.
The armors worn by all the soldiers under their command were all temporarily taken out by Wang Xun from his direct lineage, and were only enough for the veterans to wear. The horse thieves who were recruited were still dressed in their original clothes. For fear of not having a deterrent effect, after drinking yesterday,
Sha Qianli and Huang Wanshan borrowed hundreds of sets of armor from Yu Wenzhi, Fang Ziling and others overnight, and dressed the horse thieves as well.
There is a saying that "people are in clothes and horses are in saddles". The horse thieves also put on the same armor as the regular army, and their momentum immediately tripled. Sha Qianli and Huang Wanshan ordered all the brothers to pull down their masks, first
They walked in a half circle two arrows away from Zhezhe City before heading towards their destination. When Juchebishi, Baishar, Gayasi, Zabier and others saw it, they all beat their chests angrily. But
Thinking about the painful experience of being beaten by the Anxi Army and fleeing, I finally didn't have the courage to go out of the city to intercept them, so I had to watch the scarlet flags waving northward.
The Tang Army's team was still two or three miles away from its destination, and the defenders in the racecourse had received the warning. Immediately, all the soldiers were in chaos. The general in charge of garrisoning the racecourse was named Mi Mok, because he was a devout Zoroastrian.
, so he has never been well-received by Ju Chebishi Khan. He managed to get a title of Burke just by relying on his seniority in the military. However, this man is quite knowledgeable in military affairs, and all the officers around him have pale faces.
, pulled out his knife and cut off a piece of wood, and yelled loudly: "What are you afraid of! Are you afraid that the enemy will not come to kill you? When did our nine surnames Zhaowu become so cowardly? Tang Jun also has a nose.
Two eyes, take out a knife and fight with him, I don’t believe that I can’t fight them!”
"General Mi, everyone, everyone feels so uncomfortable -------!" All the soldiers covered their faces and cried bitterly, with a hint of sadness and anger in their shame. There is nothing terrible about death, but the terrible thing is that it is meaningless. Today, everyone
If we fight hard, we may be able to fight off the invading Tang army. But tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, how long can we all fight when we are isolated and helpless? Besides, we have no grudges against the Tang people. It was Prime Minister Bai Shaer who believed in Tianfang.
Human teachings have to act as lackeys for the Tianfang people, which is why they drag Zhezhe City to the edge of destruction time and time again. Now disaster is coming again. The culprit is hiding behind the city wall like a sheep, but innocent people come out to block it for him.
Knife, this is too unfair. (Note 1)
"It is true that we are not the cause of the disaster, but our home is here!" Hearing the grievances and unwillingness in everyone's cries, Mi Mok sighed, lowered his voice, and continued to encourage, "Baisharna
The old thief can escape, but we can't. If it's a man, just raise your head! Let's not defend today and go out to meet the enemy together. Even if we die, let people see that there are men among the nine surnames of Zhaowu.
!”
"General!" All the soldiers burst into tears, but most of them jumped on their mounts. Centurion An Yanjiu and Shi Shennu both followed Mi Mok's old ways and quickly began to rectify their troops. The other two centurions
Fedil and Farhad, however, were "upstarts" from Prime Minister Baishar's lineage. They were dissatisfied with Mimok shifting the responsibility to their benefactors. They walked up to them and shouted loudly, "Lord Burke will
If the brothers are taken out to fight in the field, who will guard the racecourse? Besides, the morale of the Tang army is at its peak right now, how can you be their opponent?!"
"Ben Burke is indeed not sure of victory, but he is determined to die!" Mimok glared at the two lagging guys and responded in a deep voice, "You two can escape back to the city if you are afraid of death.
Don't block my way. Otherwise, don't blame the scimitar in my hand for being rude!"
"If you die in battle, what will happen to the horses in the camp?" With Baishar's support, Federer is not afraid of Mimok's threat. "The task given to you by the Great Khan is to save these five thousand horses no matter what."
!”
Farhad has no skills in fighting, but he is first-class in understanding people's hearts. When he saw the henchman behind Mimok touching the handle of the knife, he immediately threatened the lives of the other's family members, "Yes, it doesn't matter if Lord Burke himself dies in the battle. Brother
Their families are all in Zhezhe City. If the Great Khan investigates the responsibility for the missing war horse, who will come forward to speak for them!"
Hearing this, the soldiers who had been prepared to die for their country were like millets beaten by frost, and they withered instantly. Mimok was furious, pointed the tip of his knife at Fedir's nose and cursed, "You, you are so stupid
You are a villain reincarnated from a fox. The war is about to begin, but you still have the intention to hold back Ben Burke. How can you hold on if you stick to this place? You also heard about the battle at the granary yesterday, Brother Five Hundred
, I didn’t even last half an hour!”
"Then at least he didn't disobey the Great Khan's order!" Fedil pushed the tip of the knife away with his hand and spoke plausibly. "The Great Khan will also know that the brothers died for him, and the brothers did not go against his wishes until they died.
."
"Yes, kill us if you can. The Great Khan will naturally seek justice for us!" Fahad and Fedil stood side by side, seven of them refused, and eight refused.
"You, you..." Old General Mi Mok was so angry that he trembled, but finally cut down the scimitar. He bit half of his teeth and spit blood on the ground, and asked sternly, "Then according to the two of you,
What should we do! Unless the Great Khan is willing to send troops to help, it is impossible for us to defend the racecourse."
"You can always go out to meet the enemy with some of your brothers. The two of us will lead our troops and defend to the death!" Fediler answered happily without thinking, "The Great Khan did not send reinforcements yesterday, so he may not send them today. As long as
If we persevere to the end, maybe we can make the Tang people retreat in spite of the difficulties!"
"You, you..." Mi Mok looked at the two cowards in front of him, and then at the confused brothers around him. He suddenly became worried and shouted loudly, "Okay, it's up to you. Brothers, if you are willing to follow
I will go and fight with all my strength and mount my horse to meet the enemy. If you don't want to fight with all your strength, just hide in the camp. I want to see how long you can hide!"
"If you don't want to die, stay and wait for help!" Faladi was waiting for these words, jumped a few steps away, and shouted at the top of his voice.
The soldiers looked around, and for a moment, no one knew what to choose. Seeing this, Mi Mok sighed softly, activated his mount, and walked straight out of the camp gate. Centurion An Yanjiu and Shi Shennu Er
The people looked at each other and followed closely. Inspired by the loyalty of the three people, more than forty soldiers followed them on horseback. The rest looked forward and backward, but in the end the desire for survival prevailed.
He lowered his head, not daring to look at the back of the person who was leaving.
After waiting for a while at the gate of the camp, making sure that no more brothers would follow, Mimok smiled and whispered an order. Forty light riders drew their swords in their hands and gathered into a small square beside him.
Formation. Mi Mok smiled again, turned around and shouted, "There's no point in forming this kind of formation. Formation of sharp arrows, charge with me!"
"Follow Mr. Burke!" Centurion An Yanjiu and Shi Shennu shouted loudly, urging their mounts to protect Mi Mok's wings. Forty or so people were like moths, heading towards the morning sun.
The yellow smoke in the distance flew away. The wind whistled in my ears, and the blood stirred in my heart.
Because it was often trampled by war horses, the ground was very solid. Mimok knocked on the belly of his mount and slowly accelerated, slowly adjusting his breathing to the best rhythm. These battle skills were all taught to him by Juchebishi himself.
, A long time ago, Juche Bishi had the same passion and proud heart as him. But now, they are all old, so old that they can’t remember what they were like back then.
The Tang family on the opposite side didn't seem to expect that someone would dare to come out to fight, and the marching formation paused for a moment. Mimok wanted this opportunity, and urged his horse hard, running towards the handsome flag in the center of the Tang formation.
A famous Tang sergeant hurriedly came to intercept them, but he slashed them one by one, killing two of them under their horses. The brothers behind him quickly followed up and swallowed up several other Tang generals.
"Go straight in, don't be reluctant to fight!" Mimok was overjoyed and quickly adjusted his tactics. The brothers under his command were all risking their lives and had no idea what fear was. Hearing the general's cry, he immediately dropped his opponent and followed suit.
He drove straight into the gap opened by Mimok.
The Tang army's ranks became more and more chaotic. In an instant, a huge gap was opened by the attackers. Mi Mok slashed left and right, like a crazy tiger. More than forty other brothers also risked their lives and bravely moved forward.
The Tang army was so killed that they ran away with their heads covered. Many people even turned their horses and fled before coming into contact with them, directly exposing their backbones. Mi Mok was overjoyed and slashed several times, killing two Tang army soldiers from behind. Then he pointed the scimitar again.
The enemy general who had avoided the flag shouted loudly, "That's all, rush over and chop it over!"
"Capture the flag, capture the flag!" An Yanjiu, Shi Shennu and others were also inexplicably surprised and shouted at the top of their lungs. They followed Mimok, quickly turned a corner, opened a bloody hole in the Tang formation, and pounced again
To the opponent's general.
The surrounding Tang troops dodged one after another, revealing a huge void in the formation. Two brigade flags passed by the attackers, but did not make any move, as if the life and death of the general had nothing to do with them. Another flag of the captain was far away.
He avoided it like a plague. The ecstasy in Mimok's heart came one after another, and the surprise also came one after another.
"Is this really the Tang Army?" he asked himself with a frown. In his memory, the Tang Army was not so easy to deal with. While he was confused, the war horse had already rushed under the eyes of the opponent's general. A wooden stick came towards him and stabbed him.
His chest. Mi Mok only used one move to chop the wooden tree into two pieces. He waved his hand and slashed at the opponent's head with another knife. On the way, he was pushed away by another horizontal wooden sword.
"Is it you?" A familiar feeling came to his mind. He widened his eyes and asked General Tang opposite.
"It's me!" Sha Qianli threw away half of the stick and pushed away his visor, "General Mi, Sha knew you would take the initiative to attack!"
