Chapter 360 Worship Attack - Won't Do It Again
"Fight!" Although he did not understand why the Tang army was almost seeking death, the commander of the thousand-time army was overjoyed and ordered the soldiers to stop killing the Tang army soldiers lying on the ground and set up a formation to prepare for the battle. Although there were more than a thousand people under his command and there were only more than a hundred Tang army rushing over, he still would not take it lightly and would fight with all his strength.
The soldiers agreed and quickly walked over to the array. Some people had already raised their spears and poked them down before walking over.
"Arrow!" The commander of the thousand-man commander ordered when the Tang army was about to enter the range of arrows.
The archer immediately shot the arrow out. But unexpectedly, Tang Jun suddenly stopped, took a few steps back, avoided the arrow, and rushed over again.
"Will this Tang army use such cleverness?" The thousand-man commander was a little surprised.
But it just flashed by. Originally, this array of arrows did not expect to be shot to death, and injured several Tang soldiers, but only interfered with it for a little. In his opinion, forcing them to retreat was considered to be a complete interference.
"Kill!" shouted the slogan of rushing to kill, and the two armies collided fiercely. Although there were many soldiers in Dashi, the number of enemies was not more than that of the Tang army. At this moment, the number of casualties on both sides was similar. Five or six people fell down, and several others were slightly injured.
"Clash!" the commander shouted again.
But again, beyond his expectations, the Tang army suddenly retreated. The two armies were fighting, and if one of them retreated, it would become very unfavorable. The Tang army's current behavior was very abnormal.
The commander of the thousand-man had no time to think about it at this time. Seeing this, he immediately ordered the soldiers to charge forward, to catch up with the Tang army and kill a few more people.
A "buzz" sounded. When the commander looked up, he found that dozens of arrows were flying towards him. Although he was a little strange about how many arrows could make a "buzz" sound, he didn't care, and he didn't even give orders. He just let the soldiers raise their shields to defend themselves against the arrows.
"Arrow strike back!" He gave the order to counterattack again.
But at this moment, a scream suddenly came from behind, and the sound was quite loud. The commander of the thousand-man subconsciously looked back and saw many soldiers being caught in arrows, and some even fell to the ground.
‘Where did these arrows come from? The arrows fired by the Tang army could not shoot there at all; even if they could shoot there, there were too many arrows.’ This thought flashed into his mind.
He immediately knew why so many arrows appeared. He heard the centurion who commanded the archers shouted loudly: "Captain Thousand Man, another Qin army appeared behind!"
"The other team? How many people?"
"I can't see their full picture clearly, there are at least five hundred people!"
"Let's go southeast! Near the river bank!" The commander of Qianmao looked at Li Gong, who was standing halfway up the mountain and staring at the battle situation, gritted his teeth and ordered.
If the Tang army does not appear behind him, he can still try to attack the mountain; but since it appears, it is very dangerous to fall into the situation of being attacked by the Tang army on both sides; and the number of troops behind it is difficult to estimate. If it exceeds his expectations, it may even be wiped out by the entire army. He wants to make contributions and make great contributions? Can some soldiers be killed or injured? But there is no heavy casualties.
Hearing his orders, the soldiers immediately turned toward the southeast; the archers were shooting arrows in the direction of the Tang army while running? The purpose was to interfere with their pursuit, not to hurt the enemy.
I don’t know if it was his arrows playing the role? Or the Tang army that appeared behind did not want to pursue them. After seeing the Dashi Army withdraw, the Tang army walked towards the mountain where Li Gong was? Then the soldiers stopped at the foot of the mountain, and several people in armor walked towards Li Gong on the back of the mountain.
"Captain of thousands, what will we do next?" After successfully retreating to the river bank, several centurions asked again.
"I will immediately send someone to ask General Saleh? What will he do next." said the commander of the thousand-man. The previous order was to attack Li Gong? Striving to capture or kill Li Gong alive; if the surprise attack failed, besiege the mountain. But at this time, it is not only impossible to win the siege, but it also seems meaningless. He must get Saleh's next order.
Several messengers were about to leave the army and run to the place where Saleh was. But they hadn't walked away yet? Another messenger who came from afar had already come to the commander of the thousand-man and said to him: "General Saleh's order? Your thousand-man team immediately..."
...
...
"Protector!" Liu Qi said excitedly when he saw that Li Gong was safe and sound.
The Tang army that appeared behind the Dashi Army just now? It was brought by him. After seeing Li Gong almost in desperate situation, Liu Qi no longer cared about the complete line of defense? He summoned several soldiers from the group and rushed down from the mountain. Although the possibility of his rescue of Li Gong was very small? But he had to do his best. In the end, he successfully got Li Gong completely out of danger.
"You are here!" Li Gong was relieved when he saw him.
"It's really the blessing of the ancestor of Taoism, and the protection of the people is unharmed." Liu Qi said again. As he spoke, he even cried excitedly.
If Li Gong died here or was seriously injured, he could not imagine how the situation would develop. He had to lead his troops to retreat, and the Dashi Army tacitly refused to pursue, and the two countries had a ceasefire; or would the Dashi Army chase through Gukou and attack Luzhou again, and seize the city that caused them to suffer heavy casualties? Even the entire Anxi was completely occupied by the Dashi Country?
No matter what the situation was, it was not a good thing for Anxi, him, or the soldiers of the entire army. So he was so excited when he saw that Li Gong was intact.
"I'm fine, why are you crying?" Li Gong immediately said, and then persuaded him. Zhang Xingquan also persuaded him.
After the two of them persuaded each other, Liu Qi returned to his usual expression and was about to speak. But just before he spoke, dozens of Tang soldiers, in groups of two, carried the seriously injured soldiers up the mountain and carried them to a relatively flat place to put them down.
"What are these people?"
"These are just a matter of sacrificing their lives to stop the soldiers of the Dashi Army in order to make me escape." Li Gong explained in a deep voice: "Some people died in battle, but because the Dashi Army was eager to chase me, some people were not killed but threw them aside.
After I got the support from the defenders on the mountain, in order to prevent the Dashi Army from killing them for the purpose of venting anger, I hurriedly ordered the Responsible Army to attack the Dashi Army, just to make them live a few more people."
"The Protector should not do this!" Liu Qi immediately said: "The Protector's safety is more important than Mount Tai. How can he put himself in danger for the lives of his soldiers!"
"I had already gone up the mountain at that time, and the big cannibal bows and arrows could not reach me, so it was no longer dangerous..." Li Gong wanted to defend himself, but was interrupted by Liu Qi: "No matter what, you cannot send the soldiers around you out! The guardian must not be in danger at all!"
"I won't do this again next time." Although Li Gong felt that he was doing it right, he didn't want to continue to argue with Liu Qi over this matter.
