Chapter 512 Retreating to Luming Mountain

"Hold it, you can't retreat!" During the scuffle, Huang Fuyan brandished a long spear and stabbed the cavalry of the Wei army to death, shouting while fighting.

Huangfu Yan is not a first-time brother in the battlefield. He has not fought many times with the Northern Wei army, only twice, and the scale of the battle is not large, but he has fought against Kumoxi and the Khitan people many times, and he has rich experience.

Under the melee between the two armies, once one side cannot resist the rout, it will inevitably lead to a complete rout. If the enemy takes advantage of the situation to chase and kill, the rout side will inevitably suffer heavy losses. Huangfuyan is very clear about this situation, because he used to The first time he led the team to fight against Kumoxi, he was defeated and retreated, and there were very few soldiers left who could escape in the end.

Under Huangfuyan's loud shouts, the generals of the Yan army came out of the city with a mentality of revenge and hatred. Their morale was high. Under the leadership of Mulan, they formed an overwhelming advantage over the Yan army.

Although the Xianbei soldiers were arrogant and had a loose military discipline, they were extremely fierce in battle, which was unmatched by the Yan army. In terms of momentum, they firmly overwhelmed the Yan army.

Hua Mulan didn't know how many people she had killed, she was covered in blood, and the white horse she was riding was all stained red with blood. When she slashed and killed the enemy with a knife, she paid a little attention to observe the surroundings, and found that her side had stabilized. Wen took the advantage, and she was relieved.

At this time, Wu Dade finally turned around and came back with less than [-] soldiers left. The two soldiers, he and Hua Mulan, flanked each other, and the morale of the Yan army was blown away. Some people were scared on the spot, turned around and ran away. , The soldiers of the Wei army who fought with him immediately pursued and killed them.

Someone around saw his companions fleeing, and in a panic, he followed the horse and turned around and ran away. If there were two, there would be three. A chain reaction appeared, and a rout appeared in a small area of ​​the battlefield. This situation became more and more influential, and the affected Yan army There were more and more generals, coupled with the desperate pursuit of Wei Jun, no matter how Huangfu Yan shouted orders, it would not work.

The fleeing cavalry made a lot of hooves, and there was also the roar of Wei Jun's pursuit. All kinds of voices were mixed together, and Huangfuyan's orders were drowned in these noises.

"Kill me—" Hua Mulan yelled, swiped her knife and knocked over two Yan army cavalry passing by, and chased and killed the other fled Yan army.

The Yan army finally completely collapsed. The hysterical Huangfu Yan was surrounded by the chaos and fled forward. The soldiers guarded him tightly, fearing that he would be accidentally killed by the chaotic deserters.

Yan Jun fled desperately in front, and Wei Jun, led by Hua Mulan, chased desperately. Yan Jun was chased and killed continuously, and many people fell off their horses in panic and were captured by Wei Jun.

After chasing for a few miles, the Yan army suffered heavy losses. Just after being rushed out of the woods by the Wei army, they lost hundreds of people in one face-to-face encounter, and lost hundreds of people in the body, and lost defeat in the process of being chased and killed. people, less than 600 of the [-] cavalry remained.

At this moment, a louder sound of horseshoes came from the direction of Pinggang. Not only the Yan Army cavalry fleeing in front found it, but also the Wei Army cavalry chasing after it.

Hua Mulan saw billowing smoke and dust rising from the sky a few miles ahead. At this time, there were signs of a large group of cavalry. While chasing and killing the Yan army, she observed with doubts who this group of soldiers and horses were about to appear!

On the horizon, a cavalry finally appeared, with its banners unfurled and its banners clear.

That was the flag of the Yan Army, Hua Mulan's face changed when she saw it, where did the Yan Army's cavalry come from, and there were at least 4000 to [-] troops.

Hua Mulan didn't have time to think about it, and didn't have time to analyze where the Yan army cavalry came from. She immediately made a decision, raised her sword and shouted: "The enemy reinforcements have arrived, follow me!"

After yelling, she swung her horse's head, turned around and galloped to the rear, and the cavalry of the Wei Army behind them also turned their horses' heads and turned to retreat.

The team stretched too long during the pursuit. Although Hua Mulan turned around and retreated in time, more than a hundred cavalry in the rear team were scattered by the rushing Yan Army cavalry.

The escaped Huangfuyan chased up from the two wings with the remaining [-] people. He was quite smart, and did not rush to the reinforcements of Yao Zhao's army when he fled, but dispersed to the left and right at the critical moment. A passage was cleared for Yao Zhao's army to attack Wei's army.

"The last general of Pinggang, Huangfu Yan, pays his respects to General Yao!"

Yao Zhao looked at Huangfuyan and asked, "Why is General Huangfu so embarrassed? Didn't you come out of Pinggang City and defeat the Wei army? Why did you chase here and be defeated?"

Huangfuyan clasped his fists in shame and said: "The general is ashamed. They set up an ambush here, and sent a small number of troops to provoke and insult, which aroused the anger of the soldiers. Brothers, I couldn't bear it for two days. Stop it, the Lord of the Fu let the last general lead the troops to fight, who knew that this was a treacherous trick set up by Wei Jun long ago..."

Yao Zhaodao: "For this strategy, Wei Jun Hua Mulan was willing to lose hundreds of soldiers and spend two days to lure you out. I really think highly of you! From now on, this general will take over the battle, you must obey The dispatch of this general! Hua Mulan and the others have not run far, and they fought with you just now, and their combat power has been greatly lost. Bring your troops and chase with this general, and you cannot give them a chance to breathe!"

"Obey!" Huangfu Yan didn't hesitate. He was worried that he would be punished by the prefect Li Fu when he went back. After all, he was the one who proposed to go out of the city to attack the Wei army. Explain to Li Fu.

Under Yao Zhao's command, he brought his own 100 cavalry, Huangfuyan's [-] cavalry and [-] infantry, a total of more than [-] people quickly pursued and killed Hua Mulan's right wing army.

Hua Mulan knew that she could only lead the troops to retreat at this time. After the Yan army came to 4000 cavalry, the soldiers of the Wei army were exhausted after a fierce fight just now. They no longer had the courage to turn around and fight the Yan army again. You must get rid of them when the Yan army catches up.

Some things are well thought out and well planned, but they often backfire. Hu Ying, who is in charge of the rear of the palace, sent someone to report: "General, the troops of the Yan Army Brigade are catching up. Their speed is very fast. This kind of speed, at most one moment will be overtaken!"

After hearing the report, Hua Mulan's mind raced quickly. She didn't know where the Yan army's cavalry that suddenly appeared came from, but she knew that if she couldn't get rid of the Yan army's pursuit, the only way was to find a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. This is the best way. If you turn around and go back to fight the Yan army, the only result will be that the entire army will be wiped out. The soldiers will be exhausted physically and have lost their energy. Turn around again. There is no difference between fighting and dying.

When she thought of this, she immediately took out the map to check it out, and soon found the target, Luming Mountain, ten miles away from here.

"Order, tell the brothers to speed up and follow me!" Hua Mulan yelled at the orderer.

The cavalry of the Wei Army rushed wildly, and soon arrived at Luming Mountain. Under the command of Hua Mukan, the cavalry of the Wei Army dismounted and climbed up the mountain one after another.

"Hurry up, hurry up and climb up the mountain before the Yan army catches up!" Hua Mulan greeted loudly.

For the generals of the Wei army, rest is the most important thing now. They need time to recover their strength, and the same is true for war horses. As long as they have enough rest time, they can fight again after they rest. They fight for time off.

Hua Mulan called Hu Ying, the military commander, "Hu Ying, come here!"

"What orders does the general have?" Hu Ying came over and asked.

"Take people to the mountain to check the terrain quickly, send capable soldiers to control the passages and dangerous places on the mountain, and check whether there are water sources and wild fruits!"

"Obey!" Hu Ying clasped her fists in her arms and immediately climbed up the mountain at a faster speed.

Waiting for the soldiers of the Wei Army to go up the mountain, Hua Mulan, who was still at the foot of the mountain, saw that the vanguard of the Yan Army had appeared in sight, she immediately turned around with Hua Hai and other soldiers

He climbed up the mountain and climbed up the mountain before the Yan army arrived.

A general of the Yan army reined in his horse and stopped at the foot of the mountain, and told the soldiers around him: "Go and report to the general that the Wei army has retreated to Luming Mountain, and the last general has brought people to the foot of the mountain, and immediately sent people to investigate around Luming Mountain. , cut off their retreat!"

"Yes, General!" The soldier agreed to beat his horse and turn around.

General Yan Junzhu immediately sent troops to control the traffic arteries around Luming Mountain to prevent Hua Mulan and others from escaping down the mountain.

Hua Mulan came to the mountain with her own soldiers. The soldiers of the Wei army were all exhausted, especially the hundreds of Wei soldiers who had fled back with Wu Dade collapsed on the ground and gasped for breath, and many of the wounded were in disarray. Lying on the ground humming and chirping.

The officers all stood up when they saw Hua Mulan walking by, and the soldiers all stood up when they saw the officers.

Hua Mulan nodded, pressed her hand, and told the officers: "Although treat the wounds of the wounded, the weather is hot now, and it is easy to inflame and fester!"

"Yes, General!"

These days, if the wound is infected and festers, there is a high chance of death. If you are lucky, you can survive if the wound is not infected.

Especially for soldiers and generals, the wounds on the battlefield are long and deep, and it is difficult to heal. If the infection festers, there are herbal medicines that can be used in China; but in the ancient Western battlefields, once injured, they can only hold on. Under the hygienic conditions at that time, there were very few people who were not infected, and the mortality rate was almost over [-]%.

Hu Ying came up to Hua Mulan and clasped her fists and said, "General, the last general has sent people to guard all the important roads and dangerous places leading to the mountain. I only found a small puddle three feet square, with running water flowing from the cracks in the rocks. But the flow is too small, not enough for so many of us to drink!"

Chapter 513 Cold Weapon's Mountain Defensive Battle

Upon hearing this, Hua Mulan asked, "Are there any wild fruits on the mountain?"

Hu Ying shook her head and said: "No, here are some shrubs and miscellaneous trees. We are on a mountain with many people, I'm afraid it will scare away all the animals here!"

At least there is still a small water source, and the situation is a little better than Hua Mulan expected. She ordered: "Send someone to guard the water source, and no one is allowed to take water without authorization. Anyone who disobeys the order will be cut! Know when to get out of trouble, rely on this palm-sized water source to save lives!"

Hu Ying promised: "Obey!"

Hua Mulan then inspected several defensive positions, and gave Hu Ying an order: "Add more manpower to these passages up the mountain, and increase manpower to other defensive points, organize brothers to build defensive facilities, and make full use of them." The danger of the mountain will make it difficult for the Yan army to attack the mountain!

"understand!"

Hua Mulan explained to the deputy general Puzhen: "Go and organize the brothers to cut down trees for defense. Don't throw away the cut branches. The small branches can block the sun. Leave the thick branches of the spears and cut them into short spears. It can be used as a throwing weapon when the enemy attacks the mountain!"
