It's just that many of the cavalry under his command fell behind, and were immediately overtaken by the Tang cavalry led by Moredo. The light of the knife flickered, and the horizontal knife slashed down, and the backward Turkic cavalry were killed one after another.
In this pursuit, countless Turkic cavalry were killed or injured.
Jieli looked back and saw that the cavalrymen under his command were being hunted down and crying for their fathers and mothers. Countless people were running around, and they no longer followed the large team. Because if you follow the team but fall behind, you must be killed.
Rather than that, they can only flee to other places.
Xieli's retreat soon reached the position where the rear camp was stationed. There was nothing in this camp, but there were some wounded, and now Xieli was in danger, so he couldn't take care of the wounded, so he ordered to continue to retreat, and had no time to take care of the wounded.
The army continued to withdraw.
This retreat, retreating from night to late night, running all the way, has reached the border of Daizhou, and is about to enter the territory of Shuozhou. But behind Xieli, there were still shouts of killing.
Datang's pursuers continued to pursue, relentlessly biting.
The number of cavalry around Xieli has already suffered a huge loss. Although Xieli was unable to count the specific number of people for the time being, he roughly estimated that there might not even be 30,000 troops around him.
The loss is too great.
Jieli was not in despair, he shouted: "Retreat, retreat at full speed. We are about to enter the border of Shuozhou. As long as we enter Shuozhou, we can mobilize Gao Manzheng's troops to resist. At that time, we will have a new force, and we will not be afraid of the Tang army's pursuit. , and you can kill them back."
"Withdraw!"
Jieli shouted loudly.
At this time, both Xieli and the soldiers under Xieli's command were hungry.
The most important thing is that the body is not comfortable.
There was no meal in the afternoon, and many soldiers were weak and had severe stomach pains. Many people couldn't hold their breath while running, their buttocks collapsed, and the whole bottom of their buttocks was in a mess.
The whole scene is very miserable.
Fortunately, the passing of Xieli's words encouraged the soldiers in the army, so that they cheered up and retreated with all their strength for the time being, trying to avoid Moredo who was chasing after him.
Today's Mordo leads the cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, and everyone is extremely excited. Because in the process of this pursuit, they kept beheading the Turkic cavalry, and their inner joy was like drinking a glass of iced juice on a hot summer day, and the pores of their bodies were stretched, which was extremely comfortable.
You must know that these frontier troops of the Tang Dynasty, they are sitting on the border, and it is very difficult to resist the Turkic army. All along, he was beaten passively, never took the initiative to kill on the grassland, and never had a revenge.
Now, there is an opportunity.
Finally, I was able to take revenge in a fair and honest manner.
"Kill!"
In the crowd, there were shouts one after another. The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, with high morale, kept charging. The horses rattled forward, and when the Tang soldiers caught up with the Turkic cavalry, they killed them all.
This pursuit is still going on.
More than two hours passed, and the eastern sky gradually became paler.
At this time, it has entered the territory of Mayi. Xieli's heart, from the panic at the beginning, has calmed down a little now. Because after entering Mayi, Gao Manzheng's army was there, so he could escape.
Even, Xieli can use Gao Manzheng's troops to reverse the situation and counterattack.
Just as the distance from Mayi was getting closer and closer to Mayi County, the sky was already bright. Suddenly, Turkic cavalry shouted, and a large number of cavalry and infantry appeared in front of them.
This group of troops blocked their way.
"Boom! Boom!!"
The sound of war drums resounded.
The sound of war drums was rapid, and the front of the army blocking the official road ahead, Gao Manzheng cut down the saber in his hand, and shouted: "Boys, kill, kill with me!"
With an order, Gao Manzheng's cavalry rushed out first.
When Gao Manzheng's troops approached, Xie Li laughed at first. He believed that when Gao Manzheng's army came, it must be to meet them and to block the Tang army that was chasing after them.
But as the distance got closer, especially when the distance between the two sides was reduced to less than 30 steps, Xieli found that Gao Manzheng's troops did not go to both sides of the road, but went straight to kill them.
Xieli's heart skipped a beat.
not good!
Gao Manzheng's target was not the Datang army that was chasing quickly from behind, but the Turkic troops who were evacuating. In Xieli's heart, he has no way to find out when Gao Manzheng surrendered to Datang and began to serve Datang.
At this moment, Xieli only wanted to escape in his heart, so he quickly turned around with the guards around him and broke out to the left.
After Jieli led Kang Sumi, Simo, Zhi Shili and others to break through, the rest of the army also began to change directions, but when the follow-up soldiers discovered Gao Manzheng's army, they were one step too late.
They failed to avoid Gao Manzheng's cavalry.
As soon as the two sides fought, these Turkic cavalry who were unwell and exhausted from running for a whole night were suddenly given a slap in the face, and each of them had no strength to resist, and was beheaded one after another.
For a time, there were countless casualties.
By Gao Manzheng's side, counselors reminded Gao Manzheng that Jieli had fled. Gao Manzheng turned to look in the direction where Xieli was fleeing, and immediately ordered to pursue him. He didn't want Xieli to escape, but wanted to capture Xieli so that he could make great contributions.
Therefore, when the army under his command beheaded the Turkic cavalry, Gao Manzheng decisively turned around and chased in the direction where Xieli fled.
As Gao Manzheng's troops surrounded them, the Turkic cavalry could only break out of the encirclement like headless chickens. But many who were unable to escape were killed for resisting or simply surrendered.
It's not that they didn't dare to fight, it's that there was no way to fight again, so the Turkic cavalry simply surrendered.
More and more people were killed or injured.
Moledo didn't take care of some of the Turkic cavalry who were besieged and killed. He took Datang's cavalry and continued to cover up and kill the fleeing Turkic cavalry, also quarreling in the direction of Xieli.
This pursuit lasted half the morning.
Has been chased to the Mayi border.
It's just that Mo Ledo and Gao Manzheng jointly pursued, but in the end they still failed to catch up with the escaped Xieli and his party. Gao Manzheng came to Moredo's side and said, "General Moredo, let Xieli escape."
Mo Ledo said: "I'm not a general, I'm just the son's guard. This battle, the son just asked me to participate."
"Withdraw!"
Mordo failed to catch up, so he ordered to retreat.
He didn't have to win Xieli.
Gao Manzheng saw that Mo Ledo would not speak much, and he would not say much, and ordered the withdrawal of troops. During this retreat, they also began to clean up the battlefield along the way, take away the prisoners, and deal with the beheaded Turkic corpses one by one.
When Gao Manzheng, Moredo and their group retreated, Jieli Khan, who continued to run for half an hour, ordered to stop and rest when he found that there were no pursuers behind him.
"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!!"
Jieli turned over and got off the horse, and sat down on the ground, panting heavily.
The rest are the same.
Everyone was extremely exhausted. They fought from yesterday to fleeing all the way at night, until now, and finally got rid of the pursuers. When I ran fast before, because my spirit was always tense, I didn't take other things into consideration. But now, one of the tight strings was loosened, and they were lying on the ground one by one, gasping for breath.
It's just that when everyone recovered, apart from their physical exhaustion and hunger, the expressions on their faces were filled with despair and decadence, because the loss in this battle was too great.
Jieli Khan's expression became even more gloomy.
He looked around, saw that there were not many soldiers, and ordered with a cold face: "I have lost my mind, count the losses immediately."
"yes!"
Immediately go to count. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
