Chapter 168 The end of the road

Seeing the arrow breaking through the air, Li Junhua quickly shook his body to one side, and at the same time pulled out his pistol and shot Xuanye at the coming, but there was no way to avoid it completely in a hurry. He only felt a chill in his neck, and immediately a burning pain came. He didn't know if the shot just now. Xuanye came on a horse, and he didn't care about changing his weapons, and swung his cavalry bow and smashed it hard at Li Junhua. Li Junhua couldn't dodge and was hit on his forehead. Fortunately, the iron helmet blocked the heavy blow, but he only felt dizzy and he didn't know what was going on.

Xuanye, who was passing by, turned his horse's head and was about to take it as a result. However, he saw that the bow string of the riding bow in his hand broke. He was about to draw his sword and go forward, but he saw that the cavalry of the guards rushed over like crazy. He didn't dare to fight anymore, so he ran away from his horse and ran to the road he was wielding.

He ran for a while, and just as the pursuers were about to catch up, a cavalry came from the slanting sect. The man was the crown prince Fuquan. He tried his best to block the pursuers and fled back to the camp with Xuanye.

When he rolled over and fell from the horse, Xuanye felt pain all over his body, especially his chest and thighs. He looked down and saw that blood had already oozed out. Then he looked at the enemy mount he pulled, and there was an arrow inserted on his right hip. Xuanye ordered: "Hurry up... pull down the arrow from this horse, call the doctor, and heal me. He quickly sent people to the front line, and said that the fake prince of the Eastern Band was executed, and the heaven blessed the Qing Dynasty!"

Fuquan pulled the doctor and allowed only one of them to enter the tent. He took action himself. When he came with hot water, Xuanye's armor had taken off, and there were several wounds on his chest and gunshot wounds on his thighs. After a closer look, his chest was injured by a shotgun. Fortunately, the lead bullet penetrated the armor and lost much power, and only injured his flesh. The injury to his thigh was a bit scary. Carefully remove the lead bullet and did not see blood spraying. The doctor was relieved and said, "Master, fortunately, it was not broken through the big blood vessel, otherwise the gods would be unable to save it."

"Okay, Fuquan, hurry up... Help the doctor wrap the wound up and take my armor." Xuanye said with difficulty.

"Your Majesty, I dare not move around at this time. If the blood vessel breaks, then..." the doctor persuaded.

"No, the Eastern thief chief is dead. I want the Qing soldiers to see that I am still alive..." Perhaps because of excessive blood loss, Xuanye looked pale at the moment, but bandaged the wound and changed into a new clothes. With Fuquan's help, he boarded the war horse and asked him to ride Li Junhua's mount to follow. Fuquan also had a spear in his hand, hanging a cloak seized from the horse, and prepared A-grade objects.

When the Qing army began to cheer for the death of the imperial prince, the Westward Advance Corps, which was still attacking, was a little panicked. Fortunately, the commanders of the two wings were experienced and the army was not in chaos, but it was impossible to continue the attack. Not to mention the unstable morale of the army, the situation was still not opened up after an afternoon of attacks. The soldiers were exhausted. Chen Ping and other generals personally pressed the formation and retreated the troops. On the battlefield, the smoke from the firearms fired and the smoke and dust stirred up by the iron hooves filled the sun, blocking most of the sun.

After a long time, a gust of wind blew, and the clouds in the sky were blown away by the spring breeze. The light cast from the setting sun illuminated the battlefield. The imperial soldiers saw a row of cavalry passing by in front of the Qing army camp in the distance. One of the extremely divine black war horses was particularly eye-catching. They immediately held the armor and cloaks that were familiar to the army. Everyone knew that the war horse was owned by the prince and the armor was also used by the prince. I just heard that the prince was killed and the morale of the army was in chaos. Not only the soldiers at the bottom, but even the generals and the generals could not hold back.

"General, I asked, the back camp and the baggage team were attacked, and the Camel City where the prince was located was also attacked. The prince was not sure of his life and death. The brothers lost their backbone. Otherwise..." A school official came to Chen Ping and said in a serious voice.

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Ping whipped his face with a whip and shouted, "What am I? Do I want to see it? Damn idiot, if I leave again, wouldn't the military formation be in chaos?"

Now no one dared to speak anymore. Chen Ping thought about it and saw the enemy's formation cheering again, and it didn't seem like he was pretending to be a fraud. At least the horses were all real. He was really uneasy. Seeing that the soldiers had no fighting spirit, he immediately ordered the army to retreat alternately and retreat into the Tuocheng in batches. When the army stabilized its position, he fought to Datucheng.

From a distance, I saw a group of people in front of the big tent, and the cavalry of the imperial guards were gathering. Wu Yifeng shouted and roared in the dark. When he got closer, he could hear it clearly.

"The prince has become like this. We are all in death. Get on the horse quickly and join me to enter the Qing army camp. We must get the head of the fake emperor!" Wu Yifeng shouted loudly. At his feet, there were corpses all over the ground, and all the Qing army captured in the area of ​​Kobdo were killed by him and vented his anger.

Chen Ping rushed over, pulled him off the horse with one hand, slapped him a few times, and cursed: "Wu Yifeng, you stupid thing, are you still not messing enough? Just take your brothers to die!"

Wu Yifeng spit out a mouthful of blood, his eyes were red, and he pointed to the tent, and argued: "Chen Ping, Prince, Prince, Prince..."

"Crown Prince is fine, who are you crying for?" Chen Ping shouted, grabbed Wu Yifeng's chest and pulled it in front of him, gritting his teeth and roaring: "Shut up the fuck, let me be fooled again, I will kill you! Are you going to kill the entire army? Are you going to harm the empire to encounter unprecedented failures?"

Chen Ping's words made Wu Yifeng calm down a little. Chen Ping pulled him into the tent, but saw several military doctors surrounding the prince, and the water he brought out was blood red.

"Crown Prince...What's wrong with the prince?" Chen Ping grabbed the military doctor and asked.

"The blood has stopped, it won't be a serious problem." The military doctor whispered.

Chen Ping felt a little relieved, but asked with a cold face: "There is no joke in the army, you have to tell the truth!"

"General, the truth is that it's okay, but if it gets inflamed, it's hard to say!" the military doctor whispered.

That's not something Chen Ping could consider. At least the prince did not die in front of the army, that's fine. But what Chen Ping walked up was a coma face. He immediately gave up the way to let the prince come forward to stabilize the morale of the army, walked out of the tent, and went to inspect the battalions.

When Li Junhua woke up, it was the next morning, but there were too many people gathering in front of him. He only saw a row of black shadows surrounding him. He smiled softly: "Am I dead, so many little guys?"

"Crown Prince, you are in good health." Wu Yifeng saw Li Junhua wake up, holding his hand, and could no longer control his emotions and tears fell like rain.

"My father once told me a joke that when a coma wakes up, his first request is to drink water. Look, I haven't asked for it yet, Wu Yifeng started to make water. I don't drink your tears, it's too salty." Li Junhua half-joking, making the atmosphere relax.

He felt his physical condition and felt that there was nothing above his shoulders that didn't hurt, his neck was burning, and his head was filled with pain. He called the military doctor and asked, "How is my condition? Tell me the truth."

"Prince, your injury is not serious, the blood has stopped. There is only a hole in the side of the neck with an arrow cut through it. Although it is very long, it is very shallow and does not hurt the arteries and trachea." The military doctor said.

"As you said, I will definitely not lose too much blood. Then why am I in a coma?" the prince asked in confusion.

The military doctor said: "You were not unconscious because of blood loss, but were knocked out."

"So that's the case, that's great, thank you for your hard work." Li Junhua was also happy when he heard that he was fine. Suddenly, he felt something was wrong. After a closer look, the generals in the army were around, and the outside of the tent was very quiet, with no sound of gunfire or shouting for killing.

"How long have I been in a coma? Why are you all here? Who is commanding the battle? Why don't you fight?" Li Junhua's heart tightened and asked immediately.

"You were unconscious all night. Now it's dawn. Yesterday, General Wu rescued His Highness, the Qing army used your war horses and armor to publicize it in front of the battlefield, and claimed that you had died in battle. When our army heard that the morale of the army was unstable, General Chen Ping took over the command and let the entire army retreat into the Camel City." A guard briefly explained, and said: "By the way, Your Highness, we have received good news. The vanguard of the Western Route Army was led by General Xu Hanfeng, the appeasement general in Yunzhong, and had passed Harawusu. He could arrive at noon. General Chen Ping said that when the reinforcements arrived, we would attack again."

"Oh, you are confused!" Li Junhua immediately became excited and was about to get up, but his whole body was disobedient. It was because the military doctor used anesthetics, so he couldn't get up several times and said, "You were deceived by the pseudo-emperor. It's true that he hurt me, and I also severely injured him. The pseudo-emperor was shot twice, and his injuries were even worse than me. In order to ensure completeness, how can we not withdraw!"

"It's true, that bitch is bluffing!"

"Damn it, I was cheated!"

There was a mess in the tent. Chen Ping came to hear the news that Li Junhua woke up. After hearing about this situation, he immediately regretted and shouted: "It was all the fault of the humble official, and he was deceived by the pseudo-emperor."

"What are you asking for? Go and attack quickly!" Li Junhua stood up and said loudly, but after thinking about it, he felt something was wrong and ordered: "Hurry up, summon all the generals and schools, Wu Yifeng, find me a clean dress and help me get on the horse, and you still have to let the whole army see that I am still alive!"

Li Junhua put on his armor and rode his horse. Wu Yifeng followed him with a flag. He circled around the battalions and immediately detonated the entire army. The sound of mountain shouting came one after another. After doing this, the entire army suppressed and attacked the Qing army camp.

But it was too late. After appearing in front of the army last night, Xuanye returned to the tent and was in a coma. The blood stained his clothes and armor. Needless to say, it was because of excessive blood loss. Sony and Fei Yanggu discussed and sent Xuanye to the other side of the river overnight. With the temporary retreat of the Imperial Army, they retreated to the other side of the river. All the cattle, sheep and animals that did not have time to retreat were slaughtered. They worked all night. Seeing that it was about to end, Sony and Fei Yanggu, who were responsible for the retreat, heard cheers from the empire from afar. Soon, the army came out of the camp and rushed like a tide.

"Sir Sony, please cross the river quickly and burn the floating bridge. Even if you lead people to cut off the rear!" Fei Yanggu said when he saw that the situation was not good.

Sony did not speak, Sabusu stood up: "Mr. Fei Yanggu, the person who left behind the rear should be me. You are Your Majesty's humerus, the pillar stone of the Qing Dynasty. The emperor cannot live without you! Come and tie Sony and Fei Yanggu up and send it across the river!"

The men of Sabusu who had not crossed the river at this moment were Sabusu's men. He heard this and tied up Sony and others. No matter how they spoke, they threw them across the river. Sabusu lit the floating bridge with a fire, summoned his subordinates to look around, and looked around for only more than four hundred. He said in a deep voice: "This last battle is not for the emperor, nor for Manchuria, but for our wives and children!"

Chen Ping led his army into the enemy camp. The camp was in a mess, with dead bodies everywhere. When he saw thick smoke coming out of the floating bridge, he immediately led his army to make a move and found that only a small army formed a round formation. The spearmen and armored soldiers were on the periphery and the archers were all in fearless eyes. Chen Ping sighed, knowing that he could not pursue it, and said to Babatul: "Send someone to surrender."

Babatuer sent a team of cavalry to persuade the surrender, but when he leaned in front of the formation, a wave of arrows shot out, and most of the people were shot down. Infantrymen ran out of the formation, and people and horses were chopped and killed on the spot. His spear was inserted into his head and shouted in front of the formation.

"General, look..." Babatuer hesitated a little.

"I have heard that Sabusu is a brave general. He wanted to give him a way out, but he chose a dead end!" Chen Ping said coldly. With a wave of his hand, the infantry of the Appeasement Brigade stepped forward and stopped a hundred meters in front of the enemy formation. Rows of flintlock rifles pointed at Sabusu's circular formation.

Sabusu knew that such a circular formation could block the cavalry and jump, but could not block the flintlock rifle. He shouted loudly: "Brothers, our soldiers would rather die standing than live on their knees, and follow me to rush over, kill Dongfan and island barbarians!"

In a round of volleys, the charge of Manchu soldiers was knocked down. When the infantry lined up calmly loaded and prepared to harvest their lives, the Mongolian soldiers who could not suppress their deep hatred of blood had already faced them from the side and immediately fought with the Qing army.

Although the Qing army was brave, there were many Mongolian soldiers, all infantry and cavalry. Infantry slaughtered spears, cavalry shot and killed them. After more than a thousand sieges, they killed them in just two quarters of an hour. Chen Ping walked into the corpse and saw Sabusu's corpse lying in the mud, with countless wounds all over his body. A circle of corpses surrounded him. He thought that he had pulled many people to cull before he died. He sighed and said, "It's a pity that such a good man is so big that he is not a battlefield, and where can he make achievements? He has to sacrifice his life for a dog that has lost his family. It's a pity."
