After staying in the army for a long time, Chen Mu now doesn't need to count in detail. He can roughly know the number of people at a glance.
Around... I'm afraid there are at least a thousand people!
"Climb quickly!"
At this time, how could Chen Mu still have the energy to carry this food?
When the mountain was exploded, the sound was indeed louder, but even if it attracted the attention of the Tatars, they knew that their camp was stationed a few miles away, and they rushed over so quickly. This was something Chen Mu never expected.
At this time, most of the soldiers had only climbed halfway. Chen Mu was ready to climb together, but he saw the group of Tatar soldiers on horseback only a hundred feet away from here, and they arrived here in the blink of an eye.
If everyone climbs up and no one is left behind, those barbarians have bows and arrows in their hands, and they are afraid that they will all be shot to death before they can climb up.
If everyone is allowed to come down to meet the enemy, based on the previous casualty ratio, these one thousand cavalry can replace at least two thousand Shu troops. At such a close distance, it is already too late to use firecrackers to defend the enemy, and there is no guarantee that there will be reinforcements behind.
Extremely uneconomical.
Lin Qiye on the side saw Chen Mu constantly in a daze, and hurriedly shouted: "General, let's go!"
Chen Mu stared at the charging Tatar cavalry, and then slowly pulled out the Tang Hengdao from his waist!
But I saw this thin figure standing alone with a sword, and shouted angrily: "Five hundred soldiers below the mountain obey the order!"
Chen Mu's voice was not very loud, even a little delicate, and his figure was not majestic, and he was even very thin, but at that time, his natural heroic spirit made everyone feel numb all over their bodies.
Although Chen Mu had not finished speaking, the soldiers who were about to climb up at the foot of the mountain suddenly understood what they were going to do next.
After being slightly startled, they all jumped down with a will to die and drew their swords brazenly.
"Fight to the death!"
There was no horse trap this time, and there was no iron caltrop. If you wanted to stop these cavalry, you could only use your lives to delay time as in the past.
"Brother Mu, come up quickly!"
"Old Chen! Come the fuck up here!"
He could clearly hear two voices screaming at him from the top of the mountain. They must be Xia Hou and Qi Zeguang, but for now he just pretended not to hear anything.
Are you afraid of death? Afraid of death.
But in Chen Mu's heart, morality is always higher than death. In many cases, he is a pedantic person. What the world considers outdated loyalty, but Chen Mu regards it as a treasure.
Now that this group of Shu soldiers were willing to die, how could it be possible for him to retreat alone?
Even if he died under the hoof of a horse today, Chen Mu would still interpret the principles and justice in his heart!
These two things have been engraved in our bones a long time ago.
"General, if you die, who will take command?"
"With Xia Hou and the others, people will die in war after all. I am not surprised. I am one of those dead people."
Chen Mu looked at Lin Qiye with a smile, and then looked again at the prairie cavalry who were still fifty feet away.
"But you are different!"
"You and I are both made of flesh and blood, so if you ask me to retreat, I can't do it. Besides, the green tombs and purple smoke beside the ancient road are a good destination for me."
If I just run away today, I might be able to survive, but what will follow is a lifetime of guilt and debt.
Either live upright or die upright, that's what men are like.
"Bang!"
But before Chen Mu had time to react, he felt something suddenly hit him on the back of his head.
For a moment, I felt as if the whole world was dizzy. I turned around and saw that Lin Qiye was holding a solid wooden stick.
"You...what are you doing?" Chen Mu said in a trembling voice, covering the back of his head.
"Bang!"
Seeing that Chen Mu was still unconscious, he hit Chen Mu on the back of the head again, and this time he finally fell straight to the ground.
"Come here, kid."
Lin Qiye picked up Chen Mu and handed him into the hands of a Shu army soldier who was 16 or 17 years old next to him.
"This man is the hope of our Shu Army and the hope of our Longxia Kingdom. Take him and climb up!"
How could this young Shu soldier not know that the first great victory of his Shu army was brought about by this man?
Perhaps he felt humiliated by leaving his teammates alone, but when he saw all the sergeants smiling affirmatively at him and encouraging him to escort this gentleman, he felt relieved, but because of this, he cried even harder.
"Everyone... don't worry, we will fulfill our mission! Farewell... see you in the next life!"
Five hundred men faced off against a thousand cavalry. It was a war without any suspense. Death was certain, but no one showed any fear.
How can I be so timid for the sake of my family, my country, and my country?
After Xiao Bing carried Chen Mu away, this time it was Lin Qiye who drew his sword boldly, staring intently at the prairie cavalry approaching in front of him.
"If the dark night falls, I will stand in front of tens of thousands of people, slash my sword into the abyss, and stain the sky with blood! Although I, Lin Qiye, live in a humble family, I dare to say today: It is forbidden for foreigners to travel within Longxia territory!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qiye told everyone to disperse, and then went straight to kill the Tatar cavalry.
The iron hooves leaped and trampled them, and the two sides only fought for one round, and more than a dozen people were trampled to death by the horses' hooves.
Reality is always cruel. No matter how much you cherish justice and the safety of your home and country, you will still be inferior to others when fighting.
The numbers of both armies were constantly being depleted. Corpses of Tatar soldiers fell off their horses, and a Shu soldier had his head removed with a long knife.
“It’s so refreshing!”
Lin Qiye shuttled through the battlefield with his sword. At that time, he had already chopped off the heads of more than a dozen enemy soldiers in a row.
But if someone could observe carefully, they would find that his lower back had been stabbed with a knife, which was very wide and deep.
What's more, that pair of eyes was also scratched by a knife, and everything in this world was now in his mind.
Now I'm afraid I'm just trying to hold on.
Finally, after he killed another cavalryman, blood continued to seep from his waist. He couldn't help but kneel down, but he still kept his knife on the ground to avoid making the barbarians laugh.
At that time, all five hundred Shu troops were buried in the valley. On the battlefield, human life is always so worthless.
"These Central Plains dogs! They have caused us to lose more than a hundred brothers again!"
The cavalryman rode up to Lin Qiye, who was still breathing.
He was about to behead him with a knife at that moment, but he didn't expect that the next moment he would fall straight under the horse.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
For a moment, the sound of cannons resounded above the stone ruins.
Hundreds of Shenji Battalion soldiers were scattered around the mountains. As they continued to light fires, fire snakes shot out from them.
Among them, the iron fragments hit more than a hundred prairie cavalry in a row, and they all fell to the ground.
"withdraw!"
"Go back to camp!"
The remaining several hundred cavalrymen knew that they were in a condescending position and found it difficult to fight against the enemy. Under the leadership of the cavalry commander, they hurried towards the main camp.
As the sound of horse hooves faded away, the valley became quiet again.
Although the morning glow and warm sun have just begun to rise, looking at the corpses of these Shu soldiers and thousands of Shu soldiers under the stone ruins, I can only feel the hardship and chill.
They are not afraid of death, so it is difficult for these rough men to shed a drop of cat urine, but right now, there is no one who is not crying.
Even Xia Hou and Qi Zeguang clenched their fists and cried silently when they saw Lin Qiye kneeling alone with a knife in his hand.
Thousands of people stood on the rocky cliffs, staring blankly at this dying man at the foot of the mountain. But now that everyone had a mission, they wanted to go down and hug their brother, but they couldn't. They felt extremely tormented.
Blood was still flowing out from the wound. Lin Qiye wiped his sleeves and wiped his eyes with trembling hands.
Why should a man act like a woman when he is bleeding?
What I wiped was tears.
He slowly turned around, but this time he used his last bit of strength to stand up. Even though he was blind, he still pressed his eyes and looked into the distance with all his strength.
One hand was still grabbing and stroking in front of me, as if...there was someone in front of me.
"Haha...Qingchuan...should be in this direction, right? Eight years...eight years, silly boy, what should you look like? It's too late, who would have thought that these years are so fast, I really...want to see it
Look at you kid! As a human being... you will always have regrets in your life..."
A drop of blood and tears gave up, but who could have expected that the next moment he would straighten his body and raise the three-foot blade in the sky!
"Longxia territory! Foreign races are prohibited from entering!"
Like a tiger roaring against the sun, this sound will remain in the Ten Thousand Layers Gorge forever.
At this point, this tragic song has become history.
