The first thousand two hundred and eighty-two chapters embarrassed
Chapter 1,282 Embarrassment
Seeing Tai Shici leading his troops to leave, Hariwan did not hesitate. As a general, if he could not seize this opportunity, he would not be able to control hundreds of thousands of troops in the entire Kushan Empire.
The armored cavalry rode on the rumbling hoofs and ran wildly again, heading towards the tiger army in the doorway.
"Tiger Army, fight to the death."
Yuan Che roared loudly, and the two thousand soldiers of the Tiger Army under his command also roared at the same time.
They knew that they would definitely die if they stayed, so they didn't think about surviving, as long as they could buy enough time for Taishi Ci to escape with his army.
Shields were planted on the ground, and the tiger soldiers were half-crouched, with their jade swords in their hands ready to slash the legs of the enemy cavalry, provided they would not be killed.
A brutal battle broke out again in the doorway. The Tiger Army used their own flesh and blood to firmly block the heavy armored cavalry from outside. As the number of corpses continued to increase, the remaining soldiers formed a barrier with the enemy's corpses.
Together, they become a wall of corpses to resist the enemy's attack.
After Taishi Ci left the north gate, he ran directly towards the north. He wanted to catch up with the soldiers in the front row as quickly as possible to prepare them for the enemy's arrival.
Enter's cavalry arrived faster than Taishi Ci expected. He knew that since the opponent retreated from the north gate, they would definitely flee north. After all, there were Jia Xu's hundreds of thousands of troops there.
"General, you keep moving forward, I'll stop them."
Captain Yuan Bing heard the sound of horse hooves and knew that the enemy must be chasing him, so he directly asked Tai Shici to lead his troops to continue northward, and he would block the enemy's cavalry.
"If you can't stop it, order the Tiger Army to disperse temporarily and let the enemy pass. Then if you want to retreat to Star City, I will ride north alone to organize the militia."
Although I don’t know how many light cavalry the opponent has, they must have at least several thousand cavalry. I only have 5,000 tiger troops at my disposal now. Even if they all stay to resist the enemy, they may not be able to succeed.
Rather than wasting our troops to resist the enemy's cavalry, it would be better to disperse on the spot and go north to meet Jia Xu.
"But?"
Upon hearing Tai Shici's order, Yuan Bing was also stunned, with a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.
"No but, your mission is not to question me, but to bring the scattered soldiers and horses safely to Zhongxing City for me to have a round with Mr. Jia Xu. Do it right away."
Taishi Ci glared at Yuan Bing, what time of day was it now, why are you talking nonsense to yourself here, you should seize the time to implement it.
"promise."
After being glared at by Tai Shici, Yuan Bing felt a chill in his body. After shuddering, he immediately clasped his fists and promised, leading the army to scatter in all directions and head north towards Zhongxing City.
Taishi Ci rode north alone, speeding towards the collapsed militia.
"Continue to pursue north."
Enter led his men to kill, and did not care about the scattered and retreating Tiger Army soldiers. He could not tell which of the Chinese Empire's elite groups was, so he could only kill the large number of militia out of his own heart.
"who?"
The militiamen running wildly in the front row did not give up their vigilance and set up soldiers and horses to guard the back.
"It's me, where is Chen Ye, where is he?"
Taishi Ci finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the vigilance arranged by the militia. Now he could know where the main force of the militia was.
"Colonel Chen Ye set up an ambush two miles ahead."
Seeing that the opponent turned out to be Taishi Ci, the team leader directly clasped his fists and saluted him.
"There is no need to stay here. The enemy's cavalry is coming. Come north with me immediately to fight Chen Ye."
When he heard that Chen Ye was actually setting up an ambush, Taishi Ci was overjoyed and asked the security personnel to go north with him to return.
"promise."
Taishi Ci hurried all the way and came directly to the place where Chen Ye had arranged an ambush.
"Chen Ye, get out of here."
Taishi Ci saw that there was work going on in the front, and there were quite a lot of people, as many as 20,000 people. He went to gather the militia groups one by one, which showed that Chen Ye still had two skills.
"General, it's great that you escaped."
Hearing Taishi Ci's voice, a tall man came directly to Taishi Ci.
"What are you doing? The enemy's cavalry is about to kill you."
Taishi Ci glanced at Chen Ye and couldn't help but frown.
"General, I know you will be able to withdraw in the end. I have set up an ambush here just to help you stop the opponent's cavalry and cover your withdrawal when you retreat."
Chen Ye glanced at Taishi Ci and directly expressed his thoughts. The fundamental reason why he set up the ambush was to buy time for Taishi Ci to escape.
"The enemy still has thousands of cavalry chasing them. You have no time to complete the ambush. I have ordered the Tiger Army to divide its troops and evacuate to the north. Now I order you to break the militia into pieces immediately and disperse towards Zhongxing City."
Taishi Ci glanced at the defense line that had just been deployed, and couldn't help but feel depressed. The idea was good and insightful, but it was deployed too late. The enemy's cavalry was about to rush over, and there was no time to complete it.
"promise."
After hearing Tai Shici's order, Chen Ye realized the seriousness of the matter, so he went directly to arrange for the militia to disperse and evacuate without hesitation.
"Rumble."
The troops have just been divided here, but Enter has already led his men to fight nearby, and one can even hear the unique snort of war horses.
"It's too late, immediately organize 10,000 troops and find a way to stop the opponent."
Taishi Ci couldn't help but frown. The enemy had come so quickly. Now it was impossible for the army to retreat unscathed. They had to give up their small self to complete their big self. Let's take what we can get away with.
"promise."
Chen Ye also knew that he wasted time. If he hadn't been good at making decisions and leading people to set up an ambush, they wouldn't have been caught up by the enemy's cavalry so easily.
"Okay, once the troops and horses are assembled, you can get out of here quickly and take the remaining 10,000 people with you."
Taishi Ci looked at the soldiers gathered around him and scolded Chen Ye directly, asking him to take the people away immediately.
"General, let me resist here, and you can take the people away."
When Chen Ye heard that Tai Shici wanted to leave by himself, he immediately quit. He took responsibility for himself and there was no reason for Tai Shici to stay here to block the gun.
"This is a military order. Your current task is to bring the remaining people to Zhongxing City safely and have a round with Lord Jia Xu. Do you understand?"
Taishi Ci glared at Chen Ye, with a trace of anger flashing in his eyes. What kind of brotherly love was going on now? What he wanted was to take the person away quickly.
"Chen Ye obeys the order."
Chen Ye had nothing more to say, so he just clasped his fists and accepted the order and left with the remaining soldiers. The troops were divided into four groups and retreated towards Zhongxing City.
"Shield."
Seeing Chen Ye leave, Taishi Ci also breathed a sigh of relief. Now it depends on how long he can block the opponent.
"drink."
After hearing Tai Shici's order, the remaining militia knew that they were the ones who had been cut off from the rear.
But they are also soldiers and horses of China. They receive salary from China and enjoy preferential military status. Now is the time to be loyal to China.
Besides, there is a general like Tai Shici accompanying them here, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
The military formations were lined up one after another, with 500 men in each column, and a total of twenty columns were lined up on the road to welcome the arrival of the Kushan Empire cavalry.
Looking at the neat military ranks in front of him, Enter couldn't help but feel depressed. Why did the soldiers of the Chinese Empire react so quickly? What kind of kung fu did they have? The other party was actually well prepared. With the obstruction of these enemies, he wanted to kill them.
But it’s too difficult.
"Fire the arrow."
The light armored cavalry is no better than Harivan's armored cavalry. Now he can only use bows and arrows to clear the way and try to defeat the enemy again.
"Shield, defense."
Seeing the rain of arrows coming, Taishi Ci immediately ordered his soldiers to raise their shields to defend themselves.
Although the militia can be considered a regular army, it does not have the elite of the front-line regiment. Although the shield is erected, it cannot completely cover all the soldiers.
The rain of arrows fell, instantly causing a rain of blood among the militia, and the military formation was also somewhat chaotic.
"Take up position, archers return fire."
Taishi Ci was protected by the soldiers with shields and avoided the rain of arrows. He immediately ordered the soldiers to fire arrows to fight back.
For a moment, a hail of arrows flew towards Enter's cavalry, but they were accelerated by one of them. After avoiding the hail of arrows, they continued to charge forward.
"Short spear, throw."
Seeing the enemy cavalry speeding up and rushing towards them in the blink of an eye, Taishi Ci directly ordered the soldiers to throw short spears.
Thousands of short spears flew instantly, like pear blossoms falling from the sky during a rainstorm, causing a shower of blood among the enemy cavalry.
"Charge the formation."
Bows and arrows are easy to dodge, but short spears are difficult to defend against, but Enter was already prepared. After surviving the short spears, he directly ordered the cavalry to charge into the formation.
"Shield."
Taishi Ci saw the enemy cavalry approaching fiercely and knew that they were determined to break through his army formation while his soldiers had just been defeated and their morale was unstable.
Shields were erected on the ground, ready to withstand the enemy's impact.
"Peng."
"boom."
"boom,"
A series of collision sounds were heard. Faced with the charge of the enemy cavalry, the militia soldiers were unable to resist. They were rushed into the formation by the enemy. The sharp blades cut off the heads of the militia soldiers one by one.
After all, the militia is a militia, no better than a first-class army. Facing such fierce enemy cavalry, it is impossible to withstand it.
"Stop them. If you can't stop them, everyone will die. Whether you want to be humiliated and killed by the enemy, or whether you want to die in a dignified manner, whether you want to be a coward or a hero, it depends on you."
Taishi Ci saw that the morale of the militia was a little low, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. If the enemy continued to break through like this, his militia would probably collapse directly.
