Chapter 673: Snowstorm and Cold Blade (25)

The Donghu infantry's violent attack in one day resulted in the fall of more than 3,000 people under the Pioneer City, but it did not shake the Pioneer City at all. When they returned to their camp, they unexpectedly found Donghu who was supposed to be holding the line behind them. The palace guards disappeared without a trace. Not only did they disappear, they also took away the only food left in the camp. Those were the last three days that Kutu Argen left for all the soldiers in the camp before he left. of food. (Baidu search updates are the fastest and most stable). .

All the infantrymen returned to the camp scarred, tired and hungry, only to be greeted by such a cruel reality.

The entire camp collapsed.

Donghu's unique system of strict control of infantry allowed them to remain intact even after one-third of their casualties were suffered. However, at this time, their last line of defense completely collapsed.

The camp roar, what every commander fears most, happened like this. The infantry commander Ruan did not try to control it. In fact, at the moment the camp roar occurred, he had already run away with his soldiers. He is an authentic senior Donghu general. He and his soldiers have horses. After getting on the horse, he did not go in the direction of Kutu Argen. Although there were more than 20,000 Donghu cavalry, since Yan Qi did this , it can only show that Kutu Argen's direction is a dead end. His only chance of survival is to follow in Yan Qi's footsteps.

Five thousand palace guards were not a small number, and it was not difficult to track them. Shu An galloped on his horse, following the traces left by Yan Qi.

On the Pioneer City, Xu Yuan stared at the Donghu Camp in the distance with sharp eyes. There was a huge noise first, and then, the fire shot up into the sky, reflecting half of the sky red. Although he couldn't see clearly what happened there. What, but Xu Yuan knew that the camp was bombed.

"Attack!" He waved his hand and shouted towards the city.

The gates of Pioneer City are wide open. Strong troops poured out from inside and rushed towards the Donghu camp several miles away. Before Xu Yuan arrived at the city gate, the guards had already prepared the gate for him. They got on their horses and raised some steel guns. Xu Yuan shouted Laughing, "Brothers, let's catch more live animals. Spring has begun, and we need more labor to farm and open up wasteland. We can't be too quick. If the knife goes down steeply, there will be no labor tomorrow. I Let you carry the hoe."

Upstairs at the city gate, Ning Xin looked with bright eyes at the soldiers of the Eastern Conquest Army who were rushing towards the Donghu camp like a torrent. In fact, there were not many of them. After Pioneer City dispatched Ni Huazong and Tao Jiawang. There are only more than 3,000 regular troops in the entire city, and the rest are young and strong people attached to Pioneer City.

"Donghu's energy has been exhausted, ho ho!" She laughed silently, "The offensive and defensive situation changed. The Zhengdong Army stood firm in the Hetao and marched in two directions. Dong Hu was tired of dealing with it. Next, Thorpe probably asked for peace. The war will stop for a while, then it will be time for us to show our strength. "

He reached out and stroked the cold crossbow. Ning Xin looked at the turbulent battlefield below. When Gao Yuan took control of the Loop,

After controlling Liaodong, his eyes will turn to the Central Plains. Dayan will undoubtedly be his next target. Ever since she came to Jishi City and saw Gao Yuan's layout on Daijun Zilan's side, Ning Xin has been very clear about Gao Yuan. That goal in mind.

Is this your ultimate goal to compete in the world? Ha, after you have such a rich and vast territory, you have indeed met this qualification, but your enemies are not ordinary people!

The First Army of the Eastern Expeditionary Army broke into the Donghu camp with ease. Looking around, there was no organized resistance at all. The entire Donghu camp was in chaos, and the Donghu soldiers were scurrying like wolves and rats. What was even more ridiculous was that one of them Some people were even killing each other. They didn't react until the soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army came to them.

More Donghu soldiers rushed towards the outside of the camp. At this time, escaping became their first choice. As for whether they could survive the enemy's pursuit by escaping outside, that was a question they would think about later.

On the battlefield, Dong Hu's words of "surrendering without killing" are always remembered. In such a short period of time, Xu Yuan could only give them this Dong Hu's words. Anyway, now, those who throw down their weapons and squat on the ground with their heads in their hands can survive. How dare you Those who ran around and even brandished weapons were met with nothing but ruthless slaughter. (Baidu search updates are the fastest and most stable)

Mu Benglu was half leaning on a fence. This place had been scattered by the defeated troops and ravaged by the Eastern Expeditionary Army. It was already in ruins. Except for a short tree standing behind him, there were no other buildings. All of them ceased to exist and became garbage dumped in the snow and mud.

For such a guy who was half lying there, although he was still breathing but not moving at all, the soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army did not bother to give him a knife. It seemed that this man had completely lost his fighting spirit. The army commander said that he must be arrested Alive, to add labor for next spring's plowing. Since this guy is lying here alive and dead, let's wait until the battle is over before gathering these frightened guys.

Mu Gulu's luck was really good. Crowds of people passed by him from time to time, but no one looked at him twice, and no one casually killed this desperate guy with a knife.

He was once again safe and sound among the rebels. Until several of his Rouran tribesmen found him on the battlefield, and when they were supporting him and preparing to escape, they encountered a group of soldiers from the Eastern Expedition Army in bright armor, and these soldiers were closely guarding them. It was a woman riding a horse, wrapped in thick fur.

Seeing several Donghu soldiers suddenly appear in front of them, a group of guards were startled, and someone immediately rushed up with a sword.

The swords and guns clashed, and several Donghu soldiers fell down. A guard raised his sharp sword towards Mugulu who was lying on the ground without any mercy.

"No, you can't kill him!" A wounded Donghu soldier lay on the ground and shouted, "He is the leader of the Rouran clan."

"Stop!" The woman who had been watching the massacre quietly suddenly stopped the soldier who was swinging the sword. To the Donghu soldier, this was undoubtedly the sound of heaven, and what made him even more suspicious was that the woman spoke fluent Donghu language.

"He is the leader of the Rouran clan?" The woman turned her head and looked at the Donghu soldier who was lying on the ground and was obviously very old. "Why so young?"

"The old chief of Rouran is dead. We Rouran were annexed by other tribes. He is the son of our old chief and the heir of Rouran." The old Donghu soldier was afraid that the enemy soldiers would raise their knives again in the next moment, so he kept asking.

"What's his name?"

"Mugulu!"

"The chief of Rouran, Mugulu?" Ning Xin smiled. She was lucky. She just came out for a walk and felt the atmosphere of the battlefield. She could actually pick up a big man. In the eyes of the Donghu people, Mugulu, who had lost his tribe, was just a stray dog, and the history of Rouran would also come to an end. But in Ning Xin's eyes, this was a rare commodity. If she could get a Donghu chief in her hands, it would definitely be of great benefit to her next plan.

"Go and see if there are any of those people alive?" He pointed at the Donghu soldiers lying on the ground, "Take those alive back and let the military doctor treat them, especially this Mugulu, we must not let him die."

Ning Xin, who came out to feel the atmosphere of the battlefield after unexpectedly obtaining this Mugulu, immediately lost interest in other things and turned her horse's head, "Let's go back to the city."

Her decision made the guards feel relieved. At present, there was chaos outside the Vanguard City. Commander Xu Yuan led his subordinates to capture prisoners everywhere, and they had long disappeared. Although there was no fighting on the battlefield, no one could say whether a group of Donghu fleeing soldiers would suddenly appear in the next moment, just like this Mugulu. It would be safer to return to the city. Ning Xin was a big shot. If she lost a hair, I'm afraid these people would lose a layer of skin.

Xu Yuan chased and killed until dawn before returning to the city. There were more than 5,000 Donghu soldiers outside the city who became his prisoners. Although he was a little tired, he couldn't suppress his excitement.

Until dawn, many teams returned from outside. At noon, many Donghu soldiers came over to surrender to the Eastern Expedition Army. They had escaped the pursuit of the Eastern Expedition Army. After calming down, they found that they were already in a desperate situation. In such a snowy and icy place, they would either freeze to death or starve to death, and finally become the food of wild beasts. Or they would run into the scouts of the Eastern Expedition Army. These people would not talk about surrendering without killing. Killing all enemies who have seen them is the creed that the scouts have always adhered to.

Or, walking back to the Pioneer City to surrender to the Eastern Expedition Army is the only way for these people to survive.

The overall situation in the Pioneer City has been decided, but the battle in Xiaogushan is fierce.

Qu Tu Aguda's heart is cooling down little by little with the passage of time. The enemy has obviously made detailed arrangements here. He has never stopped attacking for a whole day, but he has only advanced a few miles, but the casualties have made his heart bleed.

The enemy was getting more and more numerous. As the sky gradually brightened, he finally realized that the army of the Eastern Expedition Army was gathering towards him. But didn't General Yan say that he would hold back the enemy for him? Ten thousand infantrymen and five thousand palace guards, have they lost so quickly?

A thought flashed through his mind, but he immediately denied it, with red eyes, and urged the soldiers to attack again.

In fact, when it was almost dawn, Yan Peng also felt that he was about to collapse. His five thousand men were now less than two thousand. The thin formation of the blocking formation made him feel that as long as the enemy charged again, he might be easily penetrated. As the commander of the Second Army, he had already rushed to the front line like an ordinary soldier.

Finally, at dawn, Ni Huazong and Tao Jiawang arrived, which made him almost collapse to the ground after a moment of relief. An hour later, when Luo Weiran and his subordinates appeared on the battlefield, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the overall situation was settled. (To be continued...)
