Chapter 104: Fierce Battle
The Tartars have no horses, and it is impossible for them to escape to the northern frontier through this sea of fire. With no way to retreat, they can only fight their way out by killing.
Everyone's eyes were bloodshot and murderous, and some were on fire, just like a group of evil spirits from hell! Jin Sui turned her head to look at the Yanzhou army. Half of them had fled and disappeared. She ordered the other half: "Stand up! Pick up your weapons and kill the Tartars!"
The soldiers of the Black Feather Camp responded one after another: "Kill the Tartars! Kill the Tartars!"
Jin Sui said to Wei Zhubo again: "Take the women and leave first!"
Wei Zhubo turned around and told Chen Yunniang, "Take the women and run to the forest."
Chen Yunniang looked at Cheng Yu deeply, without any sign of holding back, and tightly grasped the anesthetic needle in her hand.
She nodded heavily: "Don't worry, sir, I will protect my sisters!"
Faced with a powerful enemy, the Yanzhou army, which is said to have experienced hundreds of battles, is actually no match for a woman from my border town.
Jinsui really wanted to drag Li Heng over to have a look, and also drag those nobles from Yanzhou over to have a look.
No matter how high your city walls are or how large your population is, if you lose the will to fight, you are nothing but chickens and dogs!
Wei Zhubo picked up a knife from a Yanzhou soldier, ran to Jinsui holding it and said:
"Your humble servant and the prince will advance and retreat together!"
Jinsui smiled at him and said, "After this battle, I will help Lord Wei return to Chang'an!"
He then shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Soldiers, did you see that? The Tartars, who were feared by the people like tigers, were burned to ashes in my border town!"
The soldiers laughed loudly, and their laughter was extremely humiliating. I believe that even if the Tartars on the other side didn't understand, they would be extremely angry.
Jin Sui shouted again: "The Tartars are not to be feared. What is feared is retreating without a fight, abandoning the battle and fleeing!"
"We, the border soldiers, want to show the Yanzhou Army that when we encounter an enemy, we should charge forward with swords drawn instead of running away in fear!"
"If you kill a Tartar, you will get a reward of ten taels!"
"Warriors of the border town, follow me and kill the Tartars!"
The blood of all the soldiers was boiling, and so was the enemy. After all, we had more soldiers, and they knew that defeat would mean death, and there was no way of retreat.
A fierce battle is about to break out! "Charge!"
"kill!"
In an instant, the two sides fought together. The background color of the battlefield was the border town with endless explosions and blazing fire.
The difference is that our army has BMWs and silver spears, while the enemy has no horses and has to tie the handles of their scimitars to their palms with cloth strips.
The Tatars are indeed a nation on horseback. They understand horses better than the Han people. Even if they are at a disadvantage at the moment, they can always hit the fatal part of the warhorse with one blow.
Kill the soldiers on horseback with two swords.
Our army's combat experience is clearly insufficient. The soldiers of the Black Feather Camp use methods they learned to deal with horse bandits and mountain bandits, while the soldiers of the Tuntian Army have only been trained but have never been on the battlefield.
They usually hunt wild boars that destroy fertile fields and wolves that steal sheep.
The Yanzhou Army, which was highly expected, was not even as good as the Tuntian Army. Those who had not fled before were now hiding at the back, fearing that the Tartars would rush towards them.
The most powerful among our troops are the 300 soldiers who had previously supported King Li, and it is Cheng Yu who is leading them to kill the enemy at this moment.
Jin Sui saw Cheng Yu killing someone, but he didn't expect that Cheng Zhubo had restrained himself before.
At the moment, Cheng Yu makes Jinsui feel like an angry physics teacher, who usually doesn’t listen to you when he talks to you reasonably, so the only way is to use force to make you listen!
He was good with sword and even better with spear. On horseback, he wielded the spear like a dragon. He could knock down a Tartar with one spear and pierce another with the other hand.
Jinsui once said that if he didn’t drink, he would just become an ordinary uncle.
Now I realize how wrong I was. An ordinary uncle doesn’t have this kind of fighting power!
The entire battlefield became a scene like this: the rear area was a sea of red, hundreds of Tatars rushed out from the red, and our army surrounded the Tatars in a semicircle.
But the Tatars' killing intent was stronger, and they were unstoppable. They became more and more courageous as they killed, and directly expanded the semicircle.
Especially the section guarded by the Yanzhou army, which is just like the city wall of a border town, is completely a decoration.
A small team led by Cheng Zhubo, like a sharp sword, stabbed out from the semicircle and pierced fiercely into the Tartar team.
The Tatars' united formation was broken up in an instant.
Once the Tartars were dispersed, their fighting power was indeed much weaker. But they were divided into several small teams, fighting everywhere, and their fighting power was still amazing.
It can be said that every Tatar at this moment is like a devil crawling out of hell or a hungry tiger walking out of the valley.
Each one requires the unity of many of our troops to subdue it.
The reason why the Tartars were like evil spirits was not only because of their murderous aura, but also because every one of them had burns. Some had burns on their faces and scalps, leaving their bodies bloody and oozing pus and yellow blood.
With angry eyes, bared teeth and scimitar in hand, he is like the evil ghost in the living picture album!
It is only a matter of time before they are all killed, but the longer we delay, the greater the losses our army will suffer.
The gap is obvious. The border soldiers have not received formal training and are not adequately equipped with weapons and armor. The Tuntian Army is just a farming army, and now they are also being recruited to serve as the main force.
As for the Yanzhou army, they probably realized the truth. If they retreated and fled, they would only leave an opening for the Tartars to pursue them. That was why they were so cautious and surrounded the Tartars, but did not dare to go forward to fight.
As for Jinsui herself, she was very self-aware. She had only just learned how to ride a horse, so how could she dare to chop someone on horseback?
Moreover, her purpose here was not to kill the enemy, but to stabilize the morale of the army.
With her around, our army is determined and will not retreat even if there are heavy casualties in the fighting.
If she turns around and retreats, she will be just like the Yanzhou Army!
Our army's defense will be broken in an instant. These hundreds of Tatars will rush into the inner city and will only vent their anger by killing. They will definitely massacre the villages and towns.
Even Wei Zhubo, who had advised her to leave whenever she encountered danger, was just protecting her side with a knife, staring at the enemy in front of her, and did not say a word to let the prince go first.
Seeing that the enemy was killing too fiercely, Jin Sui shouted loudly: "Soldiers, hold on! Reinforcements are coming!"
This was not a lie told to boost morale. Han Xing, Captain Huang and others would surely rush to help immediately upon knowing that the Tartars had broken out of the South Gate.
The Tatars who remained outside the city were not numerous and would not hold back the reinforcements.
She estimated that as long as she could hold out for half an hour, reinforcements would arrive and each man would be able to chop those Tartars into minced meat.
Our army is trying every possible way to win, and so is the enemy! The Tartars were not brainless, and they soon realized that the handsome young man protected by the Han army was their real leader.
This general who looks like a teacher but kills people like a butcher is just a general!
Although their formation was disrupted by Cheng Yu, they shouted in Tatar to each other and quickly worked out an escape strategy.
That is, the others cover the leader and lead a small team to break out and kidnap the other side's leader.
That's the young man on horseback.
The first person to see through their plan was Cheng Yu, who was fighting desperately while keeping an eye on the overall situation.
When he found that these Tatars did not attack him, but tried to stop him, and changed the direction of the breakout from the weak Yanzhou army to the prince's side.
Don’t think that Jinsui is too weak. She is not an all-rounder. She is still learning and growing in marching and fighting.
This is the first battle in our border town defense war, and everyone will grow up through iron and blood.
Thank you for your support, dears! Jinsui is grateful!
