Chapter 133 Sad, Pikemen
Fang Yue did not pursue Li Wei's troops who had lost his armor and fled into the dense forest. After drilling through the enemy's battle formation and shattering the enemy's defense, his first order was to quickly blow the horn and report to Cao Ang.
Hearing the sound of horns coming from Fang Yue, Cao Ang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, his arms were as if they were covered with lead, and he couldn't lift them up at all. He shouted loudly: "Archer, retreat into the roadblock!"
Hearing his shouts, all the archers who played the infantry temporarily ran to the roadblock. It was not that they were afraid of death, but that they wanted to seize the time to collect arrows and provide support to the brothers who were behind them!
After the archers retreated into the roadblock, Cao Ang shouted loudly: "Rees and I stay with them to cut off the rear, and the spearmen retreat!"
Hearing his shouts, Liao Hua and others were anxious and quickly shouted: "Lord, you retreat first!"
Liao Hua even shouted while commanding his troops to rush forward, leaving Cao Ang without a chance to replace him.
Looking at Liao Hua who rushed into the head and fought, Cao Ang felt warm in his heart, but now is not the time to be humble. Once surrounded by the enemy, it means death!
Cao Ang gritted his teeth and walked towards the roadblock with a wounded soldier. While strode, Cao Ang shouted loudly: "Hold the injured brother and retreat!"
Hearing his orders, more than 300 sharp men helped up their brothers and rushed towards the roadblock.
Seeing the Cao army retreating one after another, Li Li, Li Xian, Li Heng and others were all red in their eyes. If Cao Ang’s troops were asked to withdraw safely, what would they have to see Li Jue again?! The three of them led their personal guards to rush up almost at the same time, set up a supervision team behind the battle formation, urging the soldiers to step forward quickly and increase the attack.
At this time, Li Jin, panicked, also woke up and looked around in shame, and found the fact that Cao's army was about to escape. Li Jin was shocked. Once Cao Ang's troops were allowed to escape smoothly, Li Jue would definitely be furious. By that time, he would not be seriously injured by him. If he wanted to atone for his sins, he would not become a laughing stock of the entire Xiliang Army, and he would have to seize this last opportunity!
Li Jin shouted loudly and tried to gather his subordinates who had been broken up. But, how could it be that simple?! Le Jin's raid had destroyed the command system of Li Jin's troops. Whether it was the flag bearer, drummer, or the middle-level officer in charge of the dispatch, they were all destroyed by Le Jin's cavalry. Li Jin worked for a long time and only gathered 300 archers, but he was exhausted and sweated!
Liao Hua did not care about Li Jin, who was like a clown. To be honest, he did not pay attention to other people's strength. As the sharpies evacuated from the front line, Liao Hua's troops felt more and more heavy pressure. More and more enemy soldiers rushed in and divided the spearmen and surrounded them!
Liao Hua shouted loudly: "Get together to me, gather together to me!"
Hearing his shouts, dozens of spearmen near him tried their best to stab the opponent in front of him and ran to Liao Hua.
Liao Hua shouted loudly: "Take me as the arrow, line up to meet the enemy! A rope comes out and follow me! The rest of the soldiers are behind me!"
Hearing his orders, four "one rope" hurriedly squeezed out of the team and ran to Liao Hua's side.
The so-called "one rope" refers to the lower-level officers of the sergeant commander in Cao Ang's army. They are not qualified to be equipped with armor separately. In order to facilitate identification of them, Cao Ang ordered each sergeant commander to tie a thin rope on his right arm as a sign. Basically, the selection criteria for sergeant commander officers is to kill the enemy bravely, and now is the time for them to take the lead.
Liao Hua glanced roughly and saw that there were about forty or fifty soldiers around him, but only these four small officers. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Grassroots officers fought bravely to the enemy, and it was easy to be noticed by the enemy. They were often greeted by more than ten enemies. In this way, the losses of grassroots officers were too great.
However, now is not the time to sigh. Liao Hua shouted loudly: "Brothers, protect my wings and follow me!"
While roaring, he rushed towards a small group of spearmen surrounded.
Four sergeant guarded his flanks, and Liao Hua was only dancing with his axe and slashing hard. The forty or fifty people around him rushed forward along the path they had taken out.
Soon, Liao Hua rescued the more than 20 people surrounded by the center. He shouted loudly: "If you still have the strength, stick to the outside; if you are injured and useless, hurry up and go to the inner circle to wrap the wound and rest. We don't have much time, so we have to hurry up and break through!"
The soldiers agreed loudly, and all the wounded people who could move followed with all their strength. After wrapping the wound, they quickly ran to the periphery to fight the enemy. No one was lazy at all.
In ancient times, wars were very cruel. The minor wounded had the possibility of becoming prisoners and being a coolie. The seriously injured were basically killed after being abused! Everyone had already killed many people from the Xiliang army in the previous charge. Once they were captured by the Xiliang army, even being a coolie was just a luxury! As long as they could move, they had to fight with them!
Liao Hua led the team to rush two or three times, and the team expanded to more than 200 people. Although there were still surrounded spear soldiers not far away, Liao Hua and the others could not rush.
Not far from them, about 30 spearmen formed a small circle and tried their best to defend. They also saw Liao Hua's troops' attempt to rescue and quickly charged here. However, Liao Hua's more than 200 people could not rush, so how could these more than 30 people be able to rush?
A circle of people exposed their flaws because of the charge, and the enemy broke through the defense circle. Whether it was a minor or a serious injury, whether you left your weapons and surrender, or you turned against each other and begged hard, all the spearmen were left with one fate, that is, they were massacred and tortured!
Liao Hua watched helplessly, but he had indeed tried his best. The battle axe in his hand was chopped to the point of curling, and the sword he picked up from the ground was also broken in the fight, and his left arm was even stabbed!
The two sergeants rushed up and replaced Liao Hua. Liao Hua quickly entered the inner circle, hurriedly wrapped the wound, sighed, tied the handle of the waist knife with his right hand with his cloth strip, and then pulled a knot with his teeth.
A seriously injured soldier next to him shouted, "Brother Liao, can we fight out, right?"
Liao Hua nodded: "Little brother, we can definitely fight out! When we attack Dong Zhuo in the future, we will be the pioneers!"
The soldier coughed violently, and blood kept pouring out from the wound on his abdomen.
Liao Hua hurriedly stepped forward to cover his wound, but the wound on his abdomen was too big, and a roll of bandage could not be blocked at all. Seeing the blood flowing more and more, the soldier's face turned pale, he smiled bitterly: "Brother Liao, I can't hold on! Remember, my name is Zhang Shun, and I will burn a piece of paper money for me during the holidays!"
After saying this, Zhang Shun took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed it into his chest.
Liao Hua did not stop him, but his eyes turned bloody, like a hungry wolf who had eaten his own flesh to fill his stomach!
Perhaps it was infected, perhaps it was because it lost hope for the future, or perhaps it was because it wanted to reduce the burden on its peers, more than 20 seriously injured people in the inner circle were punished,
"My name is Li Guang!" "My name is Zhao Guzi!" "My name is Erhu!"...
Seeing the seriously injured shouting their names and inserting the dagger into his chest with a smile, Liao Hua's heart was as if it was cut by a knife, and it was shattered and miserable. He suddenly fell to the ground and kowtowed three times: "Brothers, go!"
After saying that, Liao Hua did not look back, strode to the outer circle and shouted: "Brothers, follow me, let's go home!"
"Go home!" "Go home!" The remaining 160 or seventy people shouted loudly and followed Liao Hua at full speed toward the east!
Cao Ang also noticed Liao Hua and his party rushing over, and quickly organized archers to help. At the same time, Cao Ang, who had just bandaged the wound, ran back with more than a hundred people, preparing to help.
At this moment, looking at Liao Hua and his group who were heading east quickly, Li Jin shouted loudly: "See they don't? Archer, shoot me!"
The archers who heard the order hesitated for a moment, and a bold soldier whispered: "General, the enemy is entangled with our soldiers. At this time, it is easy to accidentally hurt the arrow!"
"Yes, General!" Many people next to him echoed: "If we accidentally hurt them, we have to come to the door to apologize again after the war. This deal is not cost-effective!"
"You know nothing!" Li Jin shouted loudly: "Now, Li Li, Li Xian, Li Heng and the three troops can't stop Liao Hua. As long as we can shoot him, we will have no merits! Anyway, Cao Ang and the others have already rushed into the barricade, and the easiest military achievements to get right now is Liao Hua's head!"
Li Jin’s words are very reasonable. It’s all because of the incompetent Li Wei. The three thousand men failed to block the raid from Cao Ang’s troops and gave them a fortification for free. It’s really incompetent! Now it seems that shooting Liao Hua is indeed the easiest credit on the battlefield at present!
Li Jin shouted loudly: "Three consecutive shots, aim, shoot!"
Hearing his order, three hundred archers immediately poured rain of arrows on Liao Hua's side. You should know that the armor in the army was limited, and only the sword and shield soldiers who were the selection of the front were equipped with full pairs of armor. The spearmen basically only wore cloth clothes and basically had no protective power for arrows.
Half of the three hundred long arrows fell on the Cao army's spearmen, causing a series of screams. Liao Hua shouted loudly: "Stick and rush forward, victory is right in front of you!"
Li Jin was like a madman, jumping and shouting loudly: "Shoot, shoot! Shoot them to death, the credit is ours!"
One after another Cao army's spearmen did not fall under the sword of the Xiliang army, but fell under the arrow of the archers. Similarly, one after another Xiliang army soldier did not fall under the gun of the Cao army, but fell under the arrow of the archers on their own.
Li Jin shouted excitedly, "Shoot quickly, don't stop! There are only a dozen people left on the other side, and victory is ours!"
Seeing that success was about to happen, the soldiers of the Xiliang Army stopped one after another without wanting to die under the arrows of their own people.
Liao Hua and his party were only more than ten people left, and they were more than ten feet away from the receiving troops sent by Cao Ang! Could it be that today is their doomsday?
