Chapter 270 Betrayal to the end

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom..."

Hechiwen fled north with 4,000 men, but before twenty miles had walked, the scout in front stepped on a landmine, and 200 scouts became cannon fodder...

"What's going on?" He Chiwen was shocked. He was really afraid of anything he was afraid of. He was most afraid of hearing such explosions. He didn't expect that this sound, and he was plotted against by the Xixia people on the way back.

"This is the explosion of a mine, and there must be an ambush ahead." Zhebe was already very familiar with the sound of a mine explosion, and he could hear it several miles away.

"Quick, change the way, go west immediately," Hechiwen said loudly.

"Okay." Zhebe did not object. There was a mine array ahead, and going north further would be no different from sending death. Although the Qiyan tribe was full of warriors, we could not send death for nothing.

The Qiyan army did not go north any longer, but turned to the west, which caused the mine formation set up by Du Gao to exploded only 200 scouts. This was not enough for him to get stuck in his teeth.

"Leave a hundred people to thunder, and the rest follow us to chase us." Du Gao quickly ordered.

When Du Gao's people moved, He Chiwen immediately realized it. "Shuhu, you took a thousand men and horses to break the back." At this time, He Chiwen didn't care about anything else and could only abandon his pawns to protect the car.

"Yes." Shu Hutai agreed, and there was no fear on his face. On the contrary, he was secretly happy. He also claimed to be a brave general of the Qiyan tribe. Now everyone in the tribe is afraid of the Xixia firearms as if they were like tigers. If he could defeat the Xixia army, hehe, the first brave general of the Qiyan tribe would be no one.

Although Shu Hutai wanted to defeat the Xixia army, he did not dare to underestimate it at all. After receiving the order, he divided his Thousand-Person team into 100 teams. There were many ants and he could still kill the elephant. His One Hundred Ten-Person teams were spread all over the mountains and fields. No matter how many people and firearms in Xixia were, he could not bury landmines everywhere, right?

Regarding group charges, Qiyan's army may not be as good as the Xixia army. But if you want to fight alone, Shuhutai has confidence, and the warriors of Qiyan's army are definitely capable of the soldiers of Fanxixia.

As soon as Shuhutai's order was issued, Du Gao's army arrived. From a distance, Du Gao saw the Qiyan tribe all over the mountains.

"What's wrong with him?" Du Gao frowned. The current situation was like an adult facing hundreds of children.

"Captain, if you have any considerations, just kill him directly." Zhao Shijie said disdainfully.

"Their speed is not slower than ours. If you kill me, what should I do on my back?" Du Gao asked with a smile.

"Then let's leave some people to break the back." Zhao Shijie also knew the intention of these people, and he tried his best to keep him and others behind.

"How many people are suitable to keep? If you keep less, it is like hitting a dog with meat buns. If you keep more, the pursuit will be ineffective." Du Gao said with a chuckling.

"What should I do?" Zhao Shijie was also stunned.

"Captain Zhao, look at how many meat buns they left for us?" Du Gao asked with a smile. At this moment, he had an idea in his mind. He only had a thousand people, and even if he chased him, he might not be able to do much. Now that the other party gave a big gift, he would be sorry for Qiyan's wishes if he didn't accept it.

"There are at least a thousand people." Zhao Shijie's eyes were very poisonous, but he just glanced casually and said nothing.

"Okay, we first defeated Temujin, and now a thousand soldiers from Qiyan's tribe have been sent. Although our appetite is good, it is good to be able to eat two thousand soldiers of Qiyan's tribe. The person coming and the successor sent a formation to monitor the brigade of Qiyan's tribe in front along the way, and the rest of the people are ready to eat buns." Du Gao said.

"Yes." Zhao Shijie is now planning to continue to monitor Qiyan's army or stay and eat buns. He is the battalion commander of the reconnaissance battalion of the First Division of the Guards. It is his duty to keep an eye on the enemy and monitor the enemy. However, he has been interested in killing the enemy for a long time. How refreshing would it be to cut off the enemy's head with a knife? But before he could think clearly, Du Gao had already issued an order decisively.

"Lin Rufeng, you lead a company to continue to monitor, and the rest of the people will follow me to eat buns," Du Gao said.

"Yes." Zhao Shijie saw Du Gao give the order and knew that the military order was like a mountain falling, and it was impossible to change it at this time. If he had just asked it earlier, the commander might have given him a chance and might have stayed, but now he can only continue to go north to monitor Hechiwen's large troops.

"Sir, a team of 100 people in Xixia suddenly headed north. I wonder if I would stop him?" A scout from the Qiyan tribe suddenly reported to Shuhutai.

"No need to stop, a mere hundred-man team is not worth worrying. They just want to follow Hechiwen's army all the way, and there will be no threat." Shuhutai shook his head and said. Since the opponent only sent a hundred-man team, he definitely did not want to pursue the army again. Since that is the case, in other words, these people who stayed are all determined to deal with themselves.

"Sir, what should I do now?"

"What should I do? It's easy to do? If they advance, we retreat, we attack, we run. In short, we don't attack, we just need to do it with them, just one word: drag it down." Shuhutai chuckled.

Shu Hutai's move made Du Gao feel like he was from the mouth. He watched helplessly as he saw "meat buns" everywhere, but he couldn't catch them, so he couldn't kill them.

"Captain, are we divided the troops like them?"

"No, they want to hold us back. If we divide the troops, we will fall into a trap." Du Gao shook his head and said. "Of course, the division of troops must be divided, but we cannot divide them like them. If we pass the orders, we will use the company as a unit to disperse the attack."

Du Gao's division of troops was not uncomfortable. Du Yang ordered all the companies to go west. If Shu Hu Tai's people didn't chase them, Du Gao would go directly to pursue He Chiwen's army. If Shu Hu Tai blocked, his team of ten people would not be able to stop him. Unless he also gathered his people in a hundred-man team. But in that case, if the guards had grenades and javelins, Shu Hu Tai would suffer heavy casualties.

But Shuhutai did not assemble the army in the end. He expected that Du Gao had given up on his pursuit and only wanted to leave his people behind. Therefore, when the guard broke through and went west, Shuhutai just followed slowly behind the guard, and had no intention of forcibly stopping him.

Du Gao saw through the meaning of Shuhutai at a glance. He immediately ordered to speed up and strive to pursue Hechiwen's army. His move made Shuhutai unable to see through. He chased him, for fear of falling into the trap of the guards, so he didn't chase him, and it seemed that his mission of cutting off the rear could not be completed.

When Shu Hutai hesitated for a moment, several companies of the guards were gone. "Chasing" Shu Hutai gritted his teeth and spitted out such a word.

However, the speed of the escort team had already increased. If Shu Hutai wanted to chase, he could only rush to catch up. However, after rushing twenty miles, he could not see the shadow of the escort team.

Where is the guard team? Shu Hutai became more and more panicked. When did the Xixia army be so fast?

Because I was thinking of chasing the escort team quickly, Shuhutai was originally scattered into a hundred ten-man teams, but now it is slowly gathering together. But now Shuhutai no longer intends to divide the troops. The escort team is gone and his mission has not been completed. Originally, he wanted to block the escort team, but now he doesn't even know where the escort team is. If he breaks the retreat plan of Qiyan's army because of himself?

"Chasing, keep chasing westward, and never stop until the guards are chased," Shuhutai said.

But before he could walk ten miles, a team of people suddenly appeared behind the hillside. It was the guard team that Shuhutai had not seen for a long time. But at this time, the guard team gathered together like Shuhutai. Before Shuhutai had issued an order, the guard team's javelin fell into the queue of Qiyan's troops like rain.

Now Shuhutai deeply felt the helplessness of He Chiwen when he met the guard team. The guard team was well-armed and well-known. If the longbow of Qiyan's army could not be shot at the key points of the guard team, it would basically be the effect of scratching the itch through the shoe. But if Qiyan's army hit a javelin, the wound with a thick thumb would make people panic. In addition, the guard team's grenade seemed to be worth money and was thrown over. Even if Qiyan's army's war horses were trained in assault, they could not withstand the power of the grenade.

"Go ahead and blow the trumpet for me. Only by moving forward can I survive." Shu Hutai watched the surrounding troops fall down under the horse, his eyes red, and he roared loudly. The general was incompetent and exhausted the three armies. He clearly judged that the guards were going to treat him with all their might, but he was still fooled and fooled.

Shu Hutai did not have any judgment. At this time, whether Qiyan's troops retreat or struggled, they would only destroy themselves. Only by moving forward and breaking through the front line of the guards can one escape from the heavens.

The horns of Qiyan's tribe were blown suddenly, and all the soldiers of Qiyan's tribe were excited. They suddenly seemed to be crazy. No matter how many javelins and grenades were in front, they just laid their bodies on the horse's back, and some even got under the horse's belly. They ignored the attacks of the guards, but rushed forward in a quiet voice. This move immediately showed the effect.

Because both sides were very fast, the javelin and grenades only caused less than 20% of the damage to Qiyan's army. Below Shuhutai, nearly 800 people broke through the guards. Shuhutai, who was walking in front, was overjoyed and finally broke through. Although he was defeated by the Xixia army, the losses were negligible compared to He Chiwen's entire army annihilation.

Shuhutai was there and was proud, but how could Du Gao do what he wanted? Since he had made up his mind to eat these thousand "meat buns", Du Gao obviously could not leave such a big loophole. After Qiyan's troops broke through his own queue, Du Gao did not chase him immediately, but cleaned the battlefield first to ensure that there was no fish that had missed the net before he slowly chased towards Shuhutai's escape.

At this speed, it is impossible for Shu Hutai to catch up with him. He looked back. The Xixia army might be too tired or happy. In the eyes of Shu Hutai, this speed was no different from the turtle speed. However, the pride on his face had not faded, and he was immediately stunned by the explosion from the ground.

"I am Du Gao, the commander of the Xixia Guards. You are my defeated general. If I can't despise you, who else can despise you? You said that the people of the Qiyan tribe would rather die standing and die than live on their knees. Is this what you mean by yourself or what everyone here means?" Du Gao disdained Shuhutai. He did not regard Shuhutai as his opponent. On the grassland, Du Gao had only one opponent, only the Khan Temujin of the Qiyan tribe.

"It's both my intentions and others' intentions." Shu Hutai was very angry at Du Gao's ignorance, but now people are under the stone eaves and have to bow their heads.

"This is not necessarily the case. I can understand that you are not afraid of death, but you cannot cut off the road to other people's lives." Du Gao said with a smile.

"Brothers, are you willing to die like me?" Shuhutai asked loudly to the subordinates of Qiyan's tribe around him.

Shu Hutai wanted to hear the unanimous answer, but after waiting for a long time, he did not hear anyone talking. Everyone was silent and expressed their dissatisfaction with him. If it weren't for Shu Hutai, they would not have been in a desperate situation. If it weren't for Shu Hutai, they might be treating the Xixia people as prisoners now. An incompetent general would have to hold his subordinates to die together when he was dying. Will such generals gain the morale of the army?

"You? You... are not worthy of being a warrior of the Qiyan tribe." Shu Hutai was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe a sigh of relief when he saw no one responding to him.

"Since Shuhutai says that you are not worthy of being a soldier of the Qiyan tribe, then your master's water and soil simply expel his wish and let it go for me, Xixia." Du Gao said from the side.

"You..." Shuhutai didn't expect Du Gao to dig his own walls so openly. If it spreads out, he would probably be in the Qiyan tribe for the rest of his life.

"Everyone, as long as you throw your weapons on the ground, your lives will be guaranteed. But remember that the weapons must be put down gently, otherwise it will not be my business if they touch the mine." Du Gao said slowly. He looked at Shu Hutai with contempt at this moment. Being a general to reach his level is also considered his sorrow.

Everyone started to do what they did, dismounted one after another, but they were extremely light when they landed. At the same time, they were familiar with removing the longbow, quiver, scimitar, etc. on their bodies.

"Whoever captures Shuhutai alive, immediately reward 100 taels of silver and promotes it to the commander of a thousand men." Du Gao said softly again.

Everyone was given a reward of 200 taels and promoted to the commander of thousands of men. This tempted them quite a lot. Since they had betrayed Qiyan's tribe, why should they care about betrayal of Shuhutai?

Looking at the fact that his own troops were slowly approaching him, Shu Hutai felt chills. His face was unstable and he pulled out his scimitar: "Who is going to come forward to lead the death?"

"Swoosh" A long arrow suddenly shot into the back of Shu Hutai. Shu Hutai, who was holding a scimitar, was pushed off the horse's back by this powerful force. As soon as the man landed, several people rushed up next to him and pressed him down tightly. No matter how brave Shu Hutai was, he could not move at all.
