Turbulent Times Chapter 288: Fortress Falls

"Archer, archer, suppress the opponent's cavalry for me!"

After a berserk attack, the fighting spirit of the Black Horse and Red Rain tribes suddenly retreated. Not to mention taking down the Fortress, they didn't even climb up the wall of the Fortress.

Seeing the enemy receding like a tide, the centurion leader Teng Fengping let out a long breath and sat down on the ground. This is just the beginning, and there will be even bigger bitter battles to come. Looking around at the soldiers under his command, there are already a dozen of them who will never stand up again, and most of them were shot directly in the face by bows and arrows from the city and died.

"You stupid Turkic thief, your arrows are really accurate." Teng Fengping poked his head out carefully from the stack of plates, and the enemy began to gather again, this time they took the lead with their big shields, "Damn you, It came so fast!"

The Black Horse Department and the Red Rain Department were too underestimating the enemy just now, thinking that the defense fort guarded by more than a hundred people was taken down without a single charge. Construction has precautions against all means of siege, and attacking with a moment of courage like them is simply death.

Seeing that Weibao easily repelled the enemy's first attack, cheers erupted from the main side, but the two regiment leaders Ren Junshuo and Tian Ming knew that the first wave was just a tentative attack. Then comes the real struggle. But morale can be encouraged but not discouraged.

"Do you see that there are only a few hundred brothers in Weibao, and they can make the enemy unable to do anything. We have thousands of people here, and there are more than 10,000 people as backup. We want to capture Shifengzhai and let the Turks The dog will fill it with its life!" Hu Dafei shouted passionately.

…

…

Carter Bear was in trouble, he never thought that Niu Jinda would be so bold and decisive, and sent his cavalry with less than 400 men to charge back their camp.

Originally, after nightfall, he couldn't see his fingers, so he had no intention of fighting at night, if the opponent didn't run away. In such a dark night, you can hardly see your fingers. No general wants to fight at night.

In order to prevent Niu Jinda from escaping at night, he placed the sentinel very close to Niu Jinda's department. As long as the opponent moved, he would send out a signal, but he never thought that the sentinel's signal did come out, but the other party did not Run away, but make a lone throwing recoil with all the cavalry.

The more than 400 cavalry from Shifengzhai almost rushed in after the sentry sent by Carter Bear. , In the chaos, it is no longer possible to distinguish between friends and enemies. In the dark, cavalrymen waved their spears and swords, hacking and hacking. At this time, no one dared to distinguish between friends and enemies. , Everyone only knows that killing the people around them is the only way they can be safe.

In the distance, Niu Jinda saw Hu Dafei leading four hundred cavalry into the enemy line, with red eyes, he shouted: "Let's go!"

1,500 infantry broke out of the camp with tears in their eyes, and quickly set foot on their way home, while behind them, the deadly battle in the night continued.

Carter was startled and angry. At this time, the black lights were on fire, and in the midst of the melee, it was not easy to gather the troops.

When five hundred Sui army cavalry rushed into Carter Bear's camp, they were already ready to fight to the death, and they didn't want to go back alive.

Some soldiers came out of the chaotic battlefield in the dark, and they could have left there, but they galloped back without hesitation and rejoined the battlefield.

Carter Bear worked so hard that he finally regrouped his troops after an hour. The guards lit dozens of torches, even his flag, making it a giant Only then did his soldiers slowly gather around Carter Bear under the firelight.

Carter's eyes spewed fire, and his seven orifices were filled with smoke. He underestimated the courage of this general of the Sui army. Seeing the more than 600 cavalry gathered around me, my heart aches. I lost less than 200 cavalry in the fierce battle during the day, and I lost more than 200 cavalry in this one-hour scuffle. This is comparable to Qiming's The big tent cavalry of Xue Yantuo's cavalry, which was ridden by Khan Silver Wolf King! Moreover, at this time, the Sui Army still had more than two hundred cavalry standing in front of him.

The head of the regiment, Hu Dafei, raised his saber high, staring at the opposite Carter Bear, and Carter Bear was also looking at him, wishing he could eat Hu Dafei alive.

"Fight to the death!" Hu Dafei shouted, and more than 200 cavalry formed a conical charging battle formation, with Hu Dafei as the tip of the cone, and fiercely pierced the more than 600 Turkic cavalry on Carter's side.

"Kill them all!" Carter Bear roared, and he shot out at the head of the horse, and met Hu Dafei. Immediately, the head flew into the air, and a pool of hot blood poured down. The headless body was carried by the horse and ran for dozens of steps before it crashed down.

The two cavalry armies smashed together fiercely.

Half an hour passed, and there were no Sui army cavalry alive on the opposite side of Carter Xiong, only the horses that had lost their masters were left screaming on the battlefield.

"Chasing!" At noon, Carter finally caught up with Niu Jinda's troops at the mouth of a mountain, but it was only one hundred infantrymen. , a centurion stood upright in the camp, looking at Carter Bear coldly.

Carter's heart felt a little cold, Niu Jinda led the main force to leave, but left a hundred people to stop him, and this mountain pass is the shortest route to Shifengzhai, he can use the cavalry advantage to go around Pass here, but the delay may be longer than killing all these people. By that time, I'm afraid that Niu Jinda will have gone far by then, right? Carter Bear was extremely anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

"Little chief, I have already earned you a day and a half. You attacked the army stronghold guarded by more than a thousand people with 30,000 people, and you should have captured Shifeng village, right? Didn't the Han people's military books say that Overcome the besieged enemy, ten times as many will attack them, but you have thirty times as much!" Carter bear's iron armor was splattered with blood, and it turned white and white, secretly looking forward to it.

"Kill them." Carter finally gritted his teeth and ordered, no matter what, he had to chase until he got the news that the little chief had taken down Shifengzhai.

…

…

It was very different from Carter Xiong's expectations. Xue Qiluo attacked for a day, but only took down the two guard forts on the left and right of Shifengzhai.

The more than 200 Sui soldiers stationed in the guard forts have all died in battle, but the centurions of the two guard forts did the last thing before the fall of the guard forts—the bowstring of the eight-ox crossbow and some important things. The components were cut in two, so that the two eight-ox crossbows on the left and right guards could no longer threaten the main fortress.

PS: The plot of the main character has been lacking in recent updates. On the one hand, it is to properly describe the growth of the main characters around the main character. After all, historical novels are not YY cities and fantasy, and the main character has done almost everything by himself. On the other hand, it is also for the protagonist to finally appear to set off a new climax. I have racked my brains to conceive this climax these days. Finally, to tell you the truth, I stayed up late last night and saved up six more manuscripts in one breath, but whether I can upload them today depends on everyone’s encouragement to me. Hehe, don’t scold me. I'm going to play in the water park tomorrow, I'm hesitating whether to go tomorrow, if I do, I have to save a manuscript for tomorrow, hehe!
