Chapter 1067 To burn or not to burn
In fact, the range of cavalry bows and arrows is very limited, usually in the range of 150 to 44 steps, but Wei Guomu's machine has a full [-] steps. The soldiers slowly oppressed the opponent again, which made Lulu Wen Nasha's troops panic all at once, not knowing how to deal with it.

Not only was Lulu Wen Nasha robbed, but in fact, the two Khan guards who fought successively, the Jingqi, also encountered the same dilemma as Lulu Wen Nasha.

"Xuuuuuuuuuuu!" The sound of the crossbow machine piercing the air sounded, and the cavalry wandering in front of the formation were shot to the ground from time to time.

The left forward lost, and the right forward also lost. As a result, the sneak attack did not take advantage of the rear battalion.Although the Anxi rear battalion has servants who are weak, the Wei Army Anxi Army's chariot formation and the 42nd Division protect these servants. The chariot formation composed of partial tanks is more difficult than the spear formation. After three or four trials, it was damaged. With more than two thousand cavalry, the Heda cavalry was unwilling to attack.

Seeing the successive failures of the attack, E Nagu Mengsheng wanted to retreat.In fact, this is the characteristic of all nomads. If they miss a hit, they will flee thousands of miles away.To retreat at this time, in fact, the main force of the Heda army, especially the men and horses of the Enaju headquarters, only lost four or five thousand horses before and after, and could not hurt their vitality at all.And the ones who lost the most were those young and strong people who were transferred from various ministries, and Er Nabi would not feel bad about how many deaths he had.

Just when the Heda army began to retreat, the shepherds from various countries in the Western Regions heard the order to fight, and there were more than [-] horsemen from all the tribes.

It would definitely not work to expect the servants of various countries to fight tough battles, but let them beat the dogs in the water, they are definitely good hands.More than [-] cavalry cavalry, led by the leaders of their respective tribes, began to charge frantically.

Compared with the main force of the Heda army, the mere [-] horsemen are nothing at all. Such a mob can be defeated by up to [-] cavalry of the Heda army. Confidence pierced through these more than [-] shepherds.

Seeing the cavalry of the state of Wei marching out, Ahemai, the commander of the Khan's guard, smiled grimly.In his opinion, these mobs are not cavalry at all.The infantrymen of Wei State had been taught before, but when they saw that the cavalrymen of Wei State were so useless, he shouted: "Let Han'er know what cavalry is!"

Soon, however, he stopped laughing.Because although these shepherds were not very good at fighting, everyone came here with the intention of taking advantage and making a fortune. Wei Guo said that they fought with the Wei army, had no military pay, and counted meritorious service by their heads.

The price given by the State of Wei is a fat sheep with a head, or six buckets of grain, or a pot of liquor (one liter), or commodities of the same price.There is nothing more bustling than a word of profit in the world.This is true of the Han people, and so is the Liao people.When Annan conquered the Indochina Peninsula, in order to deal with the aborigines in the forest.The Annan Army offered a reward in this way. With the high reward and real incentives, those Liao people began to be used by Wei Guo.As a result, in just over a year, the Annan army received more than 46 adult men's heads, and the price they paid was only 16 bolts of silk and other materials worth more than [-] gold.As a result, in Indochina Peninsula Dading, as long as there are natives attacking the Han people or the Annan Army, the Annan Army will not immediately go into the mountains and enter the forest to pay, but offer a reward. Obtain the merit of exterminating the genocide at the lowest cost.

The successful example of the Annan Army has been used by the Anxi Army for reference, so these herders are not fighting for Wei, but for their own interests.I want to use the silk from the state of Wei in exchange for human heads.If you want to drink the fine wine of Wei State, you can exchange it with a human head.

The Heda army's attack on Stone City did not stop, but knowing that Wei's reinforcements were coming, the defenders desperately resisted, but the Heda army's momentum was not as good as before.

At this point in the battle, in fact, the Anxi army in the city had already been disabled, and it was almost impossible to find an army with a scale above a company.At this time, most companies only had dozens of people left, and some companies actually hit single digits.Roughly estimated, plus the wounded in the city, the total number of troops is less than 2.Especially the [-] to [-] employees of the Central Asia Development Company, these rabble who have not undergone strict training, are even more dead.

At this time, most of Liu Ke's personal guard battalion also died in battle, but there were only thirty or so soldiers following Liu Ke.Fortunately, the defenders are relatively determined, and the area that needs to be defended is not large, which makes the defenders not in danger at present.The continuous attack was fruitless, but was repelled by the remnants of Anxi's army. The morale of Heda's army was even more depressed at this time.

This time when they attacked Stone City, the Heda army fought so badly that the corpses of soldiers from both sides were piled up on every street in the city.Although the soldiers of the Wei army temporarily demolished the houses and took stones in the city, and piled up countless stone walls as high as people, which made it impossible for the Heda army in the city to gallop.Dismounting and fighting, the Heda army itself is the best at attacking the enemy with its own strength. At this time, Ezhanahe Yabu's headquarters lost thousands of troops, but this made Ezhanahe Yabu regret it. He hesitated, right? Still have to attack again.

With more and more casualties, the Anxi army in the city could not see the exhaustion trend, Ezhanahe Yabu had a bad feeling, he felt that the stone city seemed impossible to take today no matter what , If the fight continues, maybe the blood of the elite of the headquarters will really be shed in this stone city.Without the elite troops of the headquarters, he, the leader of the four great generals, will become a decoration, unable to deter the generals.But he boasted about Haikou, and if he didn't win Stone City, his reputation would be discredited, so no matter how badly he fought, Ezhanahe Yabu would never dare to say the order to retreat.He could only force himself to be calm, and constantly sent people to urge the various ministries to step up their attacks.

However, while attacking, Ezhanahe Yabu also cavalry confidantes scouted the field situation outside the city. Once Enagui lost the field battle, he would definitely not be trapped in the city.

As Ozanahe Yabu secretly ordered his confidants to prepare to retreat at any time, and seeing those troops carrying the captured treasures, the other Heda troops also secretly prepared to retreat.It turned out to be a good thing. Although there was a lot of shouts and shouts in Stone City, there was no real progress.

The Heda army outside Stone City began to retreat, and they were in chaos.Seeing the swarming of the servants of the Wei State, the shepherds from the Western Regions, Ahmaichi led his troops to launch a counter-charge against three times as many Wei State's shepherds.What surprised him was that these didn't engage him at all, but turned around and ran away.The level of herding and cavalry fighting in these countries in the Western Regions is indeed not very good, but in any case, these peoples who are born on horseback have impeccable horse control skills.

The [-] or so herd riders came quickly and retreated in a hurry.Naturally, Ahmaichi was unwilling to let go of this opportunity to kill the enemy's head, and led his troops to continue chasing the enemy.Seeing these shepherds from the Western Regions charging towards the Wei infantry formation, Ahemaichi almost burst into tears from laughter.They paid huge casualties and did not break through Wei's infantry formation at all. At this time, if these herdsmen broke through the Wei's infantry formation, the Heda army could turn defeat into victory.

It's just a pity that Ahemaichi didn't know that this was actually Ye Xian's cleverness.He knew that the main force of the Anxi army was too short of cavalry. The mere three and a half battalions of scout cavalry could not be used for cavalry combat at all. I was afraid that a single charge would be drowned in the enemy's formation.Therefore, these herders not only undertake the task of helping the Wei army to transport supplies, but also undertake the task of luring the enemy.Watching Muqi turn around, the infantry units of Wei Guoan's Western Army began to prepare for battle. They set up the ballista, ballista, eight-ox crossbow, and rockets to shoot at each element, waiting for the enemy to come within range.

These 3 horsemen rushed towards the Wei State infantry formation like a torrent. The momentum of more than [-] horsemen and hundreds of thousands of horseshoes is really amazing. If you are a timid person, you may be scared to pee by this formation.E Nagu, who was retreating, was relieved when he saw Ahmaichi defeating the Wei cavalry.If the more than [-] cavalry in Wei Guo'an's Western Army were really bitten up, his cavalry retreated, and it would immediately turn into a rout.But seeing this scene on the battlefield with a telescope on the watchtower, Ye Xian knew that his plan had succeeded.Although there were only tens of thousands of cavalry, no matter how small a mosquito was, Ye Xian still raised his hand and ordered the attack.

At this moment, Ahemaichi had already caught up to the back of Wei Guomu's cavalry. Ahemaichi was worthy of being a fierce general of the Heda Empire. As soon as he sent his long spear, it immediately pierced through the back of a Tie Le soldier, and the tip of the spear pierced through his chest in an instant. Then he swung the long knife in his left hand, a fountain of blood gushed out of the sky, and another Wensu soldier was directly decapitated.More than a dozen brave men who mustered up their courage could not stop Ahemaichi. His long spear and knife cut down three horsemen at once, and he killed two more with his long knife. With such bravery, the rest of the shepherds of the Western Regions didn't have the courage to resist, they only hated themselves for running too slowly.

Ahemai's red right-handed spear and left-handed long knife swept across the rear of the shepherds, cutting a way out of the shepherds' formation from the countries in the Western Regions.Seeing the bravery of the general, the demoralized Heda army was even more excited.

Just when the horsemen of the Western Regions used their buttocks as shields to face the enemy, the Heda cavalry opened their bows and shot arrows one after another. Arrows rained down one after another. , but put his feet in the stirrups, and was dragged by the horse for a while, and his head and upper body were smashed off by the ground.

However, just when Ahewanchi went mad and killed all directions, he found that the cavalry of Wei State had become thinner. With the cavalry in front of him empty, he showed a look of shock.

"Rewind! Rewind!"

However, it was obviously too late to retreat at this time.

"Xuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu[When they figured out what was going on, at least half of the more than ten thousand cavalrymen were shot and killed.At this time, the surviving Ahmai Chi's troops began to retreat in a hurry, but the red triangular flags in the Wei Guo formation were waved down one after another, and the eight-ox crossbows, crossbows and rockets smashed into the Heda cavalry formation one after another.

In just one stick of incense, at least [-] to [-] riders were killed in front of Wei's infantry. In terms of killing efficiency, Wei's well-deserved number one in the world in this era.

At this moment, the brave Ahmaichi was already dead, he rushed too fast, at least dozens of crossbow arrows hit him, and he and his horse were shot into hedgehogs in an instant. Unfortunately, Ahemaichi was hit by an eight-ox crossbow spear, tearing his upper body in half. This scene is very horrifying.

The faces of the surviving Heda cavalry were so frightened that they ran away from the Heda army when they saw they were in distress. , They roared and waved their sabers to pick up the bargain.Wei Guo did not stop them from taking advantage of it, but let it go.

After this battle, the ten thousand cavalry under Ahmai Chi's troops were almost wiped out, and less than a thousand of them survived.This situation caused the Heda army to completely dispel the idea of ​​counterattack.

[-] to [-] shepherds from various countries in the Western Regions started chasing them. They were also very careful at the beginning. Once the Heda army counterattacked, they would turn around and run without hesitation or contact. However, they did not dare to resist when they saw some Heda troops. , the courage of the herders and cavalry from these countries in the Western Regions has also become more and more courageous.After rushing and killing one after another, even hanging the severed head on the waist or on the neck of the horse, no matter how hard Wen Nasha and E Nagui tried, they couldn't stop the coming collapse.

At this time, Ye Xian did not leave behind, and sent out all the troops that could be sent out. Except for leaving a regiment of infantry to protect the equipment battalion, even the Modao Army also participated in the pursuit.There were a lot of horses left on the battlefield. The infantry who could ride horses mounted their horses and chased the enemy, and the infantry who could not cavalry also tied ropes to the horses with the help of their comrades and started chasing them.The army was defeated like a mountain, and even the auxiliary soldiers who followed the rear battalion were able to take the opportunity to chop off a few heads.

With the news of Enaju's defeat in the field battle, Ezhanahe Yabu decided not to wait any longer.He resolutely said: "Retreat, Khan has already been defeated, if we are late, we will not be able to get out!"

Seeing the Heda army receding like a tide, the remnants of Anxi's army who had been frightened shouted excitedly: "The Heda people are defeated, Heda is defeated, our reinforcements are here!"

Wen Nasha, the Eastern general who served as the striker, had a thorough understanding of what it means to be defeated and what it means to have no fighting spirit.After going out of the city to fight for an entire hour, the fierce rushing has already made the Heda army exhausted, and their mood fell from Yunxiao to the bottom. Facing the pursuit of the Anxi army, what was displayed on the faces of the Heda soldiers was not the determination to fight to the end , but fear and despair.

As the new general of the East, Wen Nasha was determined to fight to the death, so he simply turned his heart away and shouted at the remnants of the defeated generals: "The matter has come to an end, it is better to fight to the death than to be killed by the Han!"

Alzin, a warrior from the Alan tribe, also echoed Wen Nasha with a fierce face. He shouted: "Put your head out, draw your head out, today is the time for you to die. If you want to survive, you must fight to the death. Maybe there will be a chance. Otherwise, I will die without a place to bury myself!"

In fact, their Nine tribes of Alan already existed in name only. Without these young men, the old and weak women and children in the tribe would not be able to survive at all.The survival of the law of the jungle is the law of survival in nature, and there must be other tribes peeking at the children and wealth of the Alan tribe.Even if he and hundreds of remnant soldiers fled in defeat, they still couldn't escape the fate of being slaves.

It's just a pity that although the two screamed fiercely, few people agreed with them.Now that the war has been fought, the Heda people are also human beings. They have fought enough and are afraid of being beaten. There are still so many people in Wei Anxi. Nobles and generals don’t want to surrender easily. They want to keep their status and power. They want to die Fighting to fight for a way out, but people like them may not have to fight for a way out.

Maybe, we can surrender, some people think so.

Among the nomads, in fact, blood relationship is not important. If I defeat you today, your tribe will submit to me.Tomorrow you defeat me, and my tribe will surrender to you.This kind of thing is commonplace, too common.

The first to catch up were the shepherds from the Western Regions.Teams of cavalry were ordered by the leaders of their respective tribes: "Kill me, kill them all!"

The Wei people don't want their captives, they need their heads to exchange for the money and food in the hands of the Wei people, and each head, in the eyes of these Western Regions, is worthless money.

Seeing that no one responded, Alzin had no choice but to run away with the rout. However, Alzin's luck was really bad. A casual arrow from a shepherd from various countries in the Western Regions hit Alzin's horse on the buttocks, which is commonly known as **.The horse neighed and threw Arzin to the ground.This heavy fall caused Alzin to fall hard enough, staring at his eyes, his world spinning. Fortunately, the injury was not serious, only scratched some skin, and the blood flowed a little too much, but this little skin injury is nothing.

Before Arzin could breathe again, a shepherd from various countries in the Western Regions shouted excitedly: "A fat sheep!"

"What?" Arzin suddenly felt that his body became lighter. At this moment, he suddenly found a familiar headless corpse, which was Arzin's last trace of consciousness left in the world.

Originally, there was no bridge on the Syr Darya River, but in order to march eastward, Ernabi naturally built more than a dozen pontoon bridges near Xiawan.However, at this moment, the dozens of pontoon bridges and the two thousand soldiers stationed on the west bank to protect the pontoon bridges all turned into corpses.The pontoon bridge was also ablaze.

"Brother Zijie, if this pontoon bridge burns down, let's just burn it down. Why do we keep two?" Li Jingshan asked puzzled.
