Chapter 809: Sunrise in the East (34)

Hun Shizhi was the eldest son of Tulu, and he was always valued by Tulu. Naturally, he was not a person in vain. Just by looking at Gao Che's expression, he knew that things were going to be bad. Before Gao Che gave the order to attack, he had already mounted his horse first. Swinging his sword to grab the high chariot, Tulu has always been a general in the Palace Guards. He has been getting along with his subordinates for a long time, and they have a good understanding of each other. As soon as he made a move here, two hundred Palace Guards have already destroyed the horses in unison, and will suo forehead. The picture is wrapped in the middle, rushing towards the high car

To capture the thief, capture the king first and capture the high cart. The opponent will definitely collapse without a fight.

Hun Shizhi's decisiveness was something Gaoche never expected. Although the palace guards only had 200 people, their actions were like thunderbolts. As soon as Hun Shizhi moved, the whole team started to move. Hun Shizhi arrived in the blink of an eye. In front of Gao Che, he waved his sword and slashed at Gao Che.

Gao Che was horrified, but luckily he was also a veteran of the battlefield. In the blink of an eye, he suddenly shrank his head and hid. The sharp blade of the scimitar passed over his head, and he slashed his helmet without knowing where to avoid this fatal blow. With a slash of the sword, Gao Che clamped down on the war horse, and the war horse rushed forward. The two of them passed each other. In the blink of an eye, Gao Che had already drawn out the scimitar from his waist.

"Kill!" He howled like a wolf

Hun Shizhi couldn't help but secretly sigh, it's a pity, the opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back. The first sudden attack failed to capture Gao Che, and it will be even more difficult to kill him again.

"Breakout!" He roared and rushed forward. The more than a thousand soldiers and horses in the high chariot had previously dispersed their formation and surrounded the two hundred palace guards. At this time, the fighting suddenly broke out, but they had not had time to gather together. , the dispersed formation gave Hun Shizhi a chance to break through, relying on the superior combat power of the palace guards, it was just a charge. Hun Shizhi led his team out, whipped his whip and hurried into the distance.

Gao Che had disheveled hair and a ferocious expression. That knife almost killed him. Seeing Hun Shizhi break out of the encirclement at this time, he was even more furious. He was so angry that he pressed his knife and roared: "Chase, catch up, I will peel off Hun Shizhi's skin!"

Both sides chased and escaped. In an instant, they crossed dozens of miles and arrived near the small village where He Lanxiong and the others were stationed. They were also detected by the scouts sent by He Lanxiong.

He Lanxiong and Bai Yucheng immediately led their troops to attack the enemy's two shareholders, the Hu soldiers. Their total number was less than 2,000, and the scouts found no trace of other Donghu soldiers in the surrounding area. It shouldn't be a trap to lure them

Even if the cavalry led by He Lanxiong fights alone, they are not afraid of the Donghu cavalry, because more of this cavalry team is composed of Huns, and the 500 special brigade soldiers brought by Bai Yucheng are even more He is the best person selected from thousands of people by the Eastern Expedition Army. He usually performs the kind of one-on-one attack. The task of operating behind enemy lines requires excellent riding skills and the ability to come and go like the wind.

Hun Shizhi ran ahead. Gao Che was chasing after him fiercely, but he didn't even notice.

A larger cavalry force was already coming from the flank, surrounding both armies.

When the bright red flag of the Zhengdong Army suddenly appeared in Hun Shizhi's field of vision, Hun Shizhi's head almost exploded with a bang. Misfortunes never come alone, and blessings never come alone. He knew that there was such a cavalry force of the Eastern Conquest Army in action around He Lin. He never expected that at this time, he would actually encounter this cavalry.

Seeing the black cavalry coming from all directions, Hun Shizhi turned his horse's head in despair and rushed towards Gao Che, "Gao Che, if you are still a Donghu man, join forces with me, fight out, and come back." He Lin, otherwise, we will die here together today!"

Hun Shizhi roared loudly

At that moment, Gao Che was also stunned. He had had a confrontation with He Lanxiong's cavalry at Jie Pu Kou, and he knew that the combat effectiveness of this cavalry was by no means inferior to his own troops. At the moment, he only had more than a thousand troops on hand. , but the opponent has thousands of them, the strength of the troops is very different, and the individual combat effectiveness of the two sides is almost the same. Gao Che has no intention to fight at all.

If Gao Che was the kind of person who dared to fight to the death, he would not have abandoned Yu Wenke and Kirgiz in the Liaoning Guard. A person who has already abandoned his companions once to preserve his strength would have no psychology if he did it a second time. Pressure, not to mention that Hun Shizhi almost killed himself just now

Gao Che just wanted to keep the troops and horses in his hands, so when he found the cavalry of the Eastern Expedition Army appearing, he immediately turned around and ran towards the road without any hesitation.

Watching the high-speed carriage drive away, Hun Shizhi cursed loudly.

But scolding could not change the facts before them. The Zhengdong Army quickly changed its formation, and one step followed Gao Chao, while the other army cut across from the flank, cutting off Hun Shizhi's retreat. In a short time, Inside, Hun Shizhi was surrounded on all sides by the Zhengdong Army.

Looking at the four attacks against the Dongzheng Army, which was several times denser than his own, Hun Shizhi sighed. If there was no Suo'etu in his army, he would definitely launch a desperate attack. Even if he couldn't kill a bloody path, then He would also get enough results, but now, he glanced at Suo'etu's little face, which was hugged tightly by the guards around him, and he couldn't help but close his eyes.

With a bang, he dropped the scimitar in his hand and reached out to grab Suo'etu from the guard beside him. He shouted loudly: "This is the son of King Donghu. We surrender. Please ensure his safety."

He Lanxiong led his army to chase Gaoche. The person in charge here was Bai Yucheng. Hearing Hun Shizhi's words, Bai Yucheng couldn't help but be overjoyed. But he never expected that this time he would harvest such a big fish.

Thorpe only has one son. If the boy in front of him is really his son, it will be an unexpected surprise.

"Insert your weapon, dismount, hold your head with your hands, and squat on the ground," Bai Yucheng shouted sharply, "If you don't want to be shot into a hedgehog, you'd better do what I say. My surname is Bai, and my name is Bai Yucheng. You should have heard of it." "My name"

Of course, Hun Shizhi had heard of Bai Yucheng's name. This man was originally a horse bandit who ran rampant in Donghu. He had arrested many times without success.

Hun Shizhi didn't make any futile resistance. He hugged Suo'etu, got off his horse, and squatted on the ground. The two hundred palace guards looked at me, and I looked at you. In the end, they all dropped the scimitars in their hands. , turned over and dismounted, squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.

Bai Yucheng waved his hand, and Hu Tou, who was beside him, led a few people to get off their horses and walked towards Hun Shizhi. He first held Hu Shizhi down and tied him up. Suo'etu was only eight years old and was lifted up by Hu Tou. , where is there any room for struggle

With their leader captured, the two hundred palace guards no longer had any will to resist and allowed the Zhengdong Army to push them to the ground and tie them up one by one.

Gao Che fled in panic like a bereaved dog. Unfortunately, the more than a thousand soldiers and horses he had just brought with him chased Hun Shi for more than ten miles. Most of their horsepower had been consumed. At this critical moment, he suddenly encountered a powerful enemy. They can only let the horse run wildly. No matter how strong the horse is, how can it last for a long time if it continues to accelerate and run wildly?

One side has been accumulating strength for a long time, but the other side is out of men and horses. The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer. Gao Che has no choice but to send troops back to intercept them in order to buy time to escape. He Lanxiong eats them three times in a row. After defeating nearly half of the cavalry, he finally got rid of the pursuers behind him. At this time, he was not far from his military camp. He Lanxiong was also worried that the palace guards in Helin City would suddenly attack. At that time, those who fled would become himself

Just accept it when you are ready

Gaoche, who fled back to the military camp in embarrassment, no longer dared to stay in Helin. The soldiers and horses of the Eastern Expeditionary Army had already arrived outside Helin, and a large number of their troops might come from the Liaoning Guard at any time. At that time, it was very likely that he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to. Returning to the military camp, without saying a word, Gao Che immediately issued an order to break out of the camp and more than 4,000 cavalrymen immediately set off and ran towards the Holy City.

While he was running away, Gaoche still sent someone back to Helin to tell Tulu that your son and the king's son have now fallen into the hands of the Eastern Expeditionary Army. My rescue has failed and there is no way I can do it now. Ke Shi, I have no choice but to leave by myself, it’s up to you!

After receiving the report from the messenger sent by Gaoche, Tulu was like a thunderbolt, and he sat down on the ground slumped.

"The Eastern Expeditionary Army did not have many troops near Helin, just a remnant of cavalry. I sent out all the palace guards and asked General Gaoche to also send out all his troops. The two of us attacked together, defeated the enemy, and rescued the little prince. "He looked at the messenger and said.

"Master Chief Assistant, General Gaoche has already led his troops to march when I arrived." The envoy felt a little embarrassed and said in a low voice.

"Gao Che, where is he going?"

"General Gaoche said that he will lead his troops back to the Holy City to strengthen the defense of the Holy City!"

After hearing the messenger's words, Tulupong spat out a mouthful of blood. Gao Che's thoughts could not be clearer. He wanted to escape back to the black mountains and white waters. He no longer had any hope in this war.

Tulu is extremely desperate, and in Ningyuan and Jingyuan, a war to determine the fate of Donghu has come to an end.

Thorpe sent Arundai and Ususuotan to contain Jingyuan's Eastern Expedition troops, while he led the main force to attack Gaoyuan. As long as he could defeat or even kill Gao Yuan, the Donghu people would win this battle, but his ideals were full. , but the reality is very harsh. Thorpe tried his best, but not only was he unable to shake Gao Yuan's main force, but Gao Yuan personally led the troops to retreat steadily, suffering heavy losses. When the palace guards were attacked by the Eastern Army in repeated brutal attacks, When the iron-clad defense and repeated counter-attacks had exhausted all their losses, the war was actually coming to an end.

Thorpe originally did not expect Arundai and Ususuotan to be able to defeat Jingyuan's Eastern Marching Army. The two of them only brought 20,000 cavalry, but Jingyuan's Eastern Marching Army had more than 15,000 cavalry. , plus the infantry, their strength was several times that of the Donghu Army. In fact, these two men did not perform miracles and were defeated after struggling for several days.

When the Jingyuan garrison arrived at the main battlefield, they declared Thorpe's complete defeat. Thorpe sadly withdrew his troops, retreated all the way to Yulin, and then to Helin. Although the Eastern Expeditionary Army won this battle, they also suffered heavy losses. Gao Yuan, after pursuing and capturing Yulin all the way, stopped to rest and reorganize his troops. The fall of Donghu was a foregone conclusion. At this time, Gao Yuan was no longer in a hurry. (To be continued)
