Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 900 The Tragic White Tiger Legion
Nearly two thousand riders rushed towards the intersection chosen by Han Hu with indomitable courage in an overly thin formation.Even in the dark night, with only faint torches and starlight, people can still feel the vibration and determination of the horse stepping on the ground.

The Tubo people immediately discovered this army that wanted to break out, but they seemed a little helpless.

In that direction, Wen Zitao and his subordinates kept losing their horses, some of them were hit by cold arrows, and more people fell off their horses in the dark because they were not familiar with the terrain. They hardly received many attacks, otherwise they might have completely annihilated.

A glimmer of hope was ignited in the White Tiger Army, and groups of troops followed Wen Zitao's troops and rushed towards the gap.

The Tibetans' attack became even more frenzied.

The remaining White Tiger Legion fighters continued to die in battle, and some even died due to exhaustion, but no one flinched.

Many people shouted "Kill the Dog Day!" and died calmly.But what they defend is not only the pride of the White Tiger Legion, but also the pride and honor given to them by the country of Xiangfu.

An Duo Gou Shi and An Duo Da Bian are the two generals under the command of An Duo Xia Gao, the younger brother of An Duo Xia Ke, the second number in the Wu Sheng Army.

Each led two thousand cavalry, each with a horse title, silently lurking behind a small hillside. This place is located in the wilderness outside the intersection where the White Tiger Legion broke through. However, at the same night, it is difficult to find the situation on the slope at the bottom of the slope.

At this time, if anyone could see, they would find four thousand cavalry, deployed in battle formation in the dark night, looking from a distance, they looked like two gloomy forests.

According to An Duo Xiagao's calculation, the White Tiger Army should have suffered both defeats with his brother An Duo Xiake, and then retreated, and he would attack again.But he didn't expect the White Tiger Army to dispatch 1 people to defeat his brother's 5000 troops.He had just received the news that his brother's 1 army had been completely disabled, and only about 2 people fled back to the old lair of An Sheng's army.And he wanted to replace his elder brother and become the leader of the Anduo tribe, and he only had [-] troops in his hands.He still had to defeat the White Tiger Legion, and then with the momentum of a great victory, he could gain the support of the elders in the tribe and take the opportunity to drive his brother out of the position of leader of the Anduo tribe.Of course, he dared to ambush with [-] people because after the White Tiger Army killed his brother's [-] people, he was left with only [-] people. It was an urgent march to flee for their lives. During the twelve hours of continuous physical exercise, they basically did not rest, and everyone was exhausted. Even the remaining [-] people were less than one-third of their usual combat strength.

The reason why Anduo Xiagao chose to ambush here is because this is the place where Wu Shengjun must go to Lanzhou, and there is only this fork in this road within twenty miles.Since he ambushed heavy troops on the necessary path, he believed that after the White Tiger Legion was ambushed, they would definitely think about breaking out.So An Duo asked An Duo Gou Shi and An Duo Da Bian to lead a cavalry to wait here. The purpose was to wipe out the White Tiger Army and expand the results of the battle.

As long as the defeated White Tiger Legion can find a direction, this must be the escape route.And the task of An Duo and An Duo Gou Shi should also be very easy, that is, to clean up some broken soldiers.

Therefore, both of them are very satisfied with the general order they have received.

An Duo Gou Shi negotiated with An Duo early in the morning, no matter what, he had to capture a few senior military officers of the White Tiger Legion alive to be credited.And the best target, of course, is Han Hu, the head of the White Tiger Legion.

Faintly hearing the shouts, roars, and screams of the main battlefield, one can imagine that the battle over there is extremely fierce.Both of them couldn't help but secretly prayed in their hearts, hoping that Han Hu would not be so unlucky, and no matter what, he would escape alive and become his captive.

Not long after the battle started, sporadic cavalry or unowned horses kept rushing into the range of sight of the two in panic, but these were neither the targets of Anduo Goushi and Anduo, nor could they be given to them. What a mess.

The two are still waiting patiently.

However, the expected collapse did not occur.Over time, even sporadic routs gradually disappeared.For a quarter of an hour, An Duogoushi and An Duo almost thought that the White Tiger Army had surrendered.But the faint sound of killing clearly told them another reality.

The hearts of both of them sank, and disappointment enveloped their hearts.Could it be that I can only get nothing in the end?An Duo Gou Shi and An Duo Da Bian secretly lamented their bad luck in their hearts.

Just when the patience of the two of them was about to run out, a burst of hooves that were as fast as a storm came to their ears clearly.Immediately, the two of them cheered up, and quickly looked carefully, only to see a group of cavalry rushing out from the intersection under the starlight.

An Duogou Shi felt a burst of excitement, suppressing the excitement of rushing out, staring at this group of White Tigers.On the one hand, he still looked at An Duodao's side worriedly, although An Duo Xiagao had ordered all to be given by Anduogou when the two took orders, unless there was an accident, the troops on the side of Anduo Da had to be in Anduogou can only be dispatched after the attack.However, after lurking for such a long time, it is not without precedent for the general to act without restraint.However, there seemed to be no change in the side of An Duo, and An Duogou cast his mind at ease, and continued to observe the cavalry of the White Tiger Legion who had broken through.He has decided that this is a "breakthrough" rather than a "defeat". Although it is in the dark night, it is difficult to see the exact number and composition of the White Tiger Legion, but the cavalry of this White Tiger Legion is acting in the same way, which is really different from the rout.

An Duogou Shi couldn't help but praise in his heart that the White Tiger Legion is defeated but not chaotic, that is the real elite.

Just relying on intuition, An Duogoushi knew that this was just the vanguard of the White Tiger Legion breaking through. Sure enough, this idea was still spinning in his mind, and immediately the White Tiger Legion rushed out continuously.

"Han Hu is not dead yet!" An Duogou couldn't hide the ecstasy of his great achievement.It is inconceivable that the White Tiger Legion broke out in such an organized way when the main general was killed in battle.

An Duogoushi secretly counted the number and route of the White Tiger Army's breakthrough, and judged the best time to launch an attack.

But, suddenly, the White Tiger Legion stopped.

Did they find something?An Duogou Shi was taken aback, and before he had time to admire the general of the Xiangfu Kingdom who led the team, he decisively made a gesture: "Get on the horse!"

Wen Zitao led his troops on horseback and galloped on the plateau shrouded in darkness. The autumn night breeze was blowing on his face, making people feel a sense of restraint.The moment he returned to the wilderness, he felt a sense of joy as if the dragon had returned to the sea and the tiger had entered the forest.Here, in this vast world, the Cavalry Brigade of the White Tiger Legion is not afraid of any enemy.

But Wen Zitao did not dare to relax his vigilance at all.The battle is not over, the danger is still there, and there may be enemies lurking here.

Suddenly, he heard a "bang" behind him, and a soldier fell off the galloping horse.

"Hoo!" Wen Zitao reined in his horse abruptly, took his bow in his hand, and watched his surroundings vigilantly.Seeing this, the soldiers behind him also stopped and looked around.But after looking around, they didn't find any hostility.

"What happened?" Wen Zitao asked with a frown.

"Someone fell off the horse, as if exhausted and collapsed." A subordinate replied.

"Oh?" Only then did Wen Zitao realize that his arms and waist were also aching. After a whole day and night of marching, fighting, marching, and fighting, he was actually exhausted.When he went to see his subordinates again, they could not conceal their exhaustion.But in any case, now is not the time to rest.

"Cheer up your spirits!" Wen Zitao yelled sharply, "Don't show the Tubo dog a joke! Be ready to fight another fucking fight anytime!"

"Yes!"

"Before avenging my shame, I didn't want to enter the Martyrs' Shrine in the Martyrs' Cemetery. Now I must not take it lightly!"

"Yes!"

Wen Zitao nodded in satisfaction, reined in his horse and turned around.The moment he turned around, he saw Han Hu's army commander's flag also rushing out.At that moment, he heard the sound of horns all over the mountains and plains!The ground seemed to be trembling, and the black Tubo cavalry, like ghost buildings, rushed out from all directions, shouting loudly.

Wen Zitao held the back of his hand that fired the quick crossbow, his veins were ferocious.

"The dog in the east should be weaker!" A thought suddenly popped into his mind. Wen Zitao didn't know whether it was an intuition or a reliable judgment, but he didn't have time to ask Han Hu for instructions. last one.

"Kill the dog!" Wen Zitao roared loudly, and rushed towards the east where he looked weak.More than 1000 cavalrymen behind him followed closely, shouting "Kill the Dog Day!" like a huge black sharp arrow, piercing due east.

Wen Zitao soon knew that his instinct was correct.

When the Tubo army launched an offensive, there was a problem with the cooperation between the Anduodabian troops and the Anduogoushi troops. The military strength is slightly weak.This junction happened to be the target of the White Tiger Army's attack, and was torn to pieces by the White Tiger Army full of grief and indignation.The White Tiger Legion didn't dare to love to fight. Once they defeated the enemy in front of them, they rushed forward without stopping.

Anduo Goushi joined An Duo and quickly mobilized the other two wings to outflank them.

However, it was too late, and the more than 1000 cavalry who survived the catastrophe and the more than 1000 infantry led by Han Hu who followed behind rushed out as if with the help of a god.At this time, An Duo Gou Shi didn't bother to complain about An Duo's side, and hurriedly led his troops to chase him.

So far, a long-planned ambush by the Tibetans has turned into a pursuit.
