Chapter 660 Escape

Xu Shengnu's horizontal knife couldn't stop Pei Xingyan's copper hammer, and the hammer had already reached the top of his head before the horizontal knife could be lifted up, and the copper hammer hit the back of the horizontal knife, and slammed the horizontal knife into Xu Shengyan's head with a bang. In the furious iron helmet, almost at the same time, the copper hammer followed by the horizontal knife smashed on his head.

The iron helmet was directly smashed in, and a large head scattered like a shattered watermelon.The skull shattered, and the red blood and white brain mixed together and rushed out.Because the distance was too close, a few pieces of meat stuck to Pei Xingyan's face.He took a step back, raised his hand to wipe off the flesh and blood on his face, and without taking another look at Xu Shengnu who was slowly falling, he strode towards the trapped Tang cavalry.

"The general has an order, you will surrender without killing!"

Pei Xingyan's soldiers shouted loudly, and then the soldiers of the Yanyun Army who surrounded the cavalry of the Tang Army shouted in unison.

"Surrender without killing!"

"Surrender without killing!"

Trapped in the gun formation, the cavalrymen of the Tang army were still fighting to the death. As the shouts sounded, the soldiers of the Yanyun army stepped back to leave an open space. There were more than half of the cavalry, and almost all of the remaining people were wounded. Less than 300% of them were still riding horses, and not even [-] were still standing.There is no doubt that if the soldiers of the Yanyun Army do not retreat, they will be slaughtered for at most one more stick of incense.

Pei Xingyan strode to the front of the formation, looked at the blood-soaked cavalry of the Tang army in front of him, and said loudly: "His Royal Highness Yan, you are also sons of the Han family, and I have ordinary backgrounds with my brothers in the Yanyun army. The emperor in the city rose up, and the king of Yan had no choice but to do so. If you are willing to surrender, the king of Yan will treat you just like he treats my brothers in the Yanyun army."

"surrender?"

A lieutenant of the Tang Army wiped the blood from his forehead, shook his head with a wry smile and walked in front of everyone.He first saluted Pei Xingyan by cupping his fists, and said solemnly: "Thank you for not killing the general, but..."

He looked back at those comrades, and said in a hoarse and sad voice: "The brothers who have been selected to fight this time all live in Chang'an City. This is the emperor's personal order, and everyone understands why. If we surrender, our wife, children, and parents may not end well. From the day we were elected out of the city to fight, we have no way out."

"We surrender and bring disaster to our family."

He looked at Pei Xingyan and said with a slightly trembling voice: "So I thank the General for your kindness, and the King of Yan for your kindness, but I can't follow orders!"

"We don't want to die!"

A soldier of the Tang Army who was only sixteen or seventeen years old wailed and fell to the ground. He looked at the captain and cried, "I don't want to die... I haven't lived enough, I haven't married a wife and had children, and I still don't want to die." Didn't carry on the family line for my Liu family! I don't want to die..."

"Who wants to die?"

The captain smiled bitterly and asked, "Ask the brothers, who wants to die?"

"But we don't die, what about the parents at home?"

He looked at the soldiers under him and said loudly: "I don't force you. Those who are willing to surrender can drop their weapons. The King of Yan will definitely not deceive us. You also know that today is mortal. There is no need for the Yanyun army to let us live If you still care about your relatives at home, stand with me, and don't bother the brothers of Yan Yunjun, we will end it ourselves!"

Hearing these words, some of the cavalry of the Tang army couldn't help throwing down the horizontal knife, squatting on the ground and crying loudly.Someone walked up to the captain with a dull expression, and there was no trace of expression in his eyes.

"idiot!"

Pei Xingyan cursed and said: "If you don't die, join my Yanyun army, and tell the truth when you call outside the city tomorrow morning, does Li Yuan dare to order the killing of your family members? If he does so, he You will lose the hearts of the people!"

"Yup!"

Someone's eyes lit up, as if they saw a way out: "As long as we tell this before the battle, the emperor will definitely not dare to order the killing!"

The captain was startled, then threw the horizontal knife on the ground dejectedly, couldn't help sighing, and couldn't help thinking in his heart, as long as we people tell the story, the emperor may have no choice but to treat our family members. Make a move, but the emperor's reputation will also plummet, King Yan... so calculating!

He was born in a family, so he naturally thought of things much deeper than those soldiers who came from poor families.At this time, he actually thought of the purpose of King Yan's doing so.But who can resist the temptation to survive?How can there be so many things like death as home, most of the rumors are lies, no one wants to die, even if they can live for a few more days, it is better than dying in blood and blood, and there is not even a whole body left behind.

"Dropped..."

He looked at Pei Xingyan and knelt down slowly.

……

……

The fighting in the east of the city ended quickly. It took less than half an hour from the time when Xu Shengnu led the Qingqi into the Yanyun Army company camp, to when more than [-] remnants surrendered. However, the battle in the south of the city was beyond everyone's expectations.

Wei Tianchui is a general under the command of Zhang Gongjin, the Duke of Tan. He is famous for his superb martial arts skills. Few people are his opponents in military competitions.This person has also made a lot of contributions in several fights, and there are already dozens of lives in his hands.After killing too many people, there is no reverence for life, but it does not mean that they will not cherish their own life.

From the very beginning of the battle, Wei Tianchui knew that he would never succeed today.

Different from Pei Xingyan's tactics, from the beginning Niu Jinda did not let the archers line up, but let the archers retreat. Thousands of infantry holding shields formed a concave formation, and put the cavalry of the Tang army into the formation. big camp.The cavalry of the Tang army who rushed into the camp found themselves trapped in a tight siege before they could be happy.

The infantrymen of the Yanyun Army standing next to each other, holding a huge shield for one person, and the shields are densely packed to form a city wall.The cavalry of the Tang army who rushed into the camp suddenly woke up, and it was too late to rein in their horses and plan to retreat.The surrounding shield formations began to close together, and the thick formation slowly pressed up.

The soldiers hiding behind those huge shields were completely covered, and the long spears in the hands of the cavalrymen of the Tang Army couldn't find their targets no matter how sharp they were!In front of them was a neat and continuous shield formation, and the long spears would not be able to hurt the soldiers of the Yanyun army at all!

And just after the shield formation was encircled, the soldiers of the Tang army hiding behind the giant shields began to show their power. Behind each row of giant shield hands was a row of soldiers holding spears. With an order, countless spears flew out from behind the giant shield, and slammed into the formation of the cavalry of the Tang army like a torrential rain.

For a moment, the wailing sound resounded through the sky. The soldiers of the Tang army had nowhere to hide. Their back road was blocked by their comrades and they couldn't turn around. If they rushed forward, it would also be a dead end.

"Bump them away!"

Wei Tianchui, who was in the last team, ordered loudly: "Rush forward, the only way to survive is to break the shield formation, don't stop and be a target, rush forward!"

While shouting, he secretly turned his horse and rushed back.Before Yan Yun's army counterattacked, he had time to rush outside Mingde's gate.As long as the gates of the city are opened and he returns to the city, he will not be too embarrassing if he thinks about how important Tan Guogong is to him.He didn't know that Xu Shengnu in the east of the city chose a completely opposite path, and if he knew, he wouldn't change his choice.

This is simply a trap!

Wei Tianchui cursed in his heart, the Yanyun army had already been prepared, let alone a surprise attack, even if Duke Tan mobilized tens of thousands of troops to force his way, it might not be able to break away from the Yanyun army company battalion.

So he simply chose to run for his life.

The dense spears were thrown over endlessly, and the gathered cavalry of the Tang Army were torn off the horses layer by layer by the spears.Just like a huge and dense hailstone smashed into the pond, a bloody flower splashed on the water surface.The leather armor on the light cavalry couldn't stop the heavy and sharp spears at all, and stopping was the deadliest mistake they made.

It is unimaginable to imagine such a tragedy. The densely packed spears cover the past, and the cavalry and horses cannot dodge at all. As the shield gradually closes, it seems that their last way of life is about to be cut off.

……

……

Wei Tianchui turned around and fled with a dozen of his own soldiers. Following his escape, the Tang army's cavalry rear immediately collapsed. The soldiers turned their horses and ran back behind Wei Tianchui. The crowd dispersed, and the cavalry in front also had a way out, and the rout spread out at an unstoppable speed from the very beginning.

Tang Jun ran away as soon as he rushed to kill, but even Niu Jinda didn't expect it.He originally thought that since he came to the battle, Tang Jun must be determined to die.Not many cavalry came, obviously planning to rush out for help.That being the case, there is absolutely no reason to fail at the very beginning.

But this kind of thing just happened, it was a joke, a very cold joke.

Wei Tianchui galloped all the way, relying on his steed to lead the way to the gate of Mingde.He beat his horse like crazy, telling himself that as long as he rushed to the city gate, he would survive.

In front of the Mingde Gate tower, Zhang Gongjin, the Duke of Tan, looked out while leaning on the battlements with his hand, his face was ashen. His hands were holding the city bricks, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging because of the force.

"Fire arrows!"

He squeezed out two words from the corner of his mouth, and then walked away.

The rain of arrows covered the city wall, among which were heavy crossbows as thick as calves.The cavalrymen of the Tang army who fled back did not die in the hands of Yan Yunjun, but in the hands of their fellow soldiers.Wei Tianchui was unlucky, half of his body was directly smashed by a heavy crossbow, and the corpse that fell on the ground looked disgusting like half a maggot.What is embarrassing is that his war horse was intact, and there was not a single wound on his body.
