Chapter 253 Weighing Jin

The rising sun rose in the east, and the western suburbs of Jincheng and the north bank of the Yellow River, a large number of cavalry galloped from east to west, and went upstream, like a large group of birds, comparing the speed with the sun.

In the team, Ashina'anluo looked back and saw that there was a dusty thing in the distance behind him. He understood that the pursuers were following him like shadows, so he felt relieved.

After struggling for a long time last night, they failed to attack the headquarters and did not make any substantial progress. They also lost some people, which disappointed Anluo.

The Chu army's weapons were really powerful, and thousands of people could not attack. If it weren't for the night as cover, perhaps their casualties would have been much greater.

However, if you can lead the pursuers into the ambush circle in a while, you will gain something and you will not be busy all night.

Eat this pursuer, go upstream and follow the Huangshui River Valley to the West Sea, take a short rest, and then go back from the way.

As for whether Wu Qiu could succeed last night, he could only wait for the result.

Thinking of this, Asuna'anluo was still a little anxious.

The strength of the Chu army was too strong. His carefully planned sneak attack had already reached the extreme. If it were another target, such as the camps of other tribes, he could now start distributing spoils.

The night attacks of thousands of cavalry were enough to deal a devastating blow to a tribe, but the Chu army had to withstand it. It is conceivable that if it was a head-on confrontation, it would be even more difficult for one side to win.

Therefore, he hoped that Wu Qiu's night attack would be successful. Only by killing the Emperor of Chu and causing chaos in Chu, the Khanate would have a chance.

If it fails, it can only be said that it has tried its best. However, if the State of Chu wants to take revenge, it is impossible: if the Central Plains cavalry can run away, where can they fight after leaving Guazhou?

Can you reach Khotan the farthest?

So what if they really fight Yutian? They just need to retreat westward to avoid the attack of the Central Plains cavalry, and when the opponent is trapped and they will fight back, they will win.

The hinterland of the Khanate is far away from the Central Plains. How can these people who farm barefoot barefoot and farm in the mud win over those who ride horses on the grassland?

As he walked, the front gradually slowed down. Anluo felt strange and was about to ask someone to ask what was going on before, but a message came from the front:

On the banks of the river ahead, there were dead people everywhere, and the dead were companions who left here to set up ambush.

Anluo was shocked when he heard this. Before he could make arrangements, the sound of horns rang around him.

On both sides of the Yellow River, behind the undulating hills, a large number of flags and crowds gradually appeared, and together with the pursuers behind, surrounded Anluo and his subordinates.

The encirclement is not without any leakage. There are mostly infantrymen on the west side, which looks a bit thin. If you forcefully rush over, you will still have a chance.

Anluoce immediately stepped forward and looked ahead with a thousand-mile mirror. He found that there seemed to be a series of "nets" being pulled up on the ground in front. Those "nets" were wrapped around wooden stakes, forming long walls.

Perhaps, this is what is called "barbed wire".

Anluo recalled some things he knew, including the content about "barbed wire":

This is a net made of iron wire, extremely tough and there are many iron spikes on it. Once it is laid out (more than several channels), even if the armored war horses sprint with all their strength, they will not be able to break through.

So, he was fooled, and the Emperor of Chu knew that there were cavalrymen to attack, so he had already made preparations.

He deliberately did not live in Jincheng and ran to Tianming Temple on Gaolan Mountain, just to give him the opportunity to take advantage of it, so he attacked with all his might.

As a result, the sudden failure to go in, and the back path was cut off.

Now that I want to leave, I can’t leave anymore!

When Anluo thought of this, he felt his chest tight and a little dazed. The Emperor of Chu came to Longyou, and it seemed that he was deliberately trying to attract a fool to attack.

Now, he is that fool, concentrating his elites to attack.

But it is a sheep entering the wolf's mouth, leaving no return.

At the critical moment, Anluo quickly made a choice: surrender.

Surrender may be killed because he attacked the head of the Chu emperor, but if he did not surrender, he would definitely die!

After surrendering, perhaps Emperor Chu spared his life to decorate his storefront.

As long as you survive, you have the chance to escape and die here, and everything will be over.

Anluo knew that he could not directly order surrender now, otherwise his subordinates would feel that he was cowardly and timid, and would have to wait for the Chu army to send people to persuade him to surrender. He would summon a few more confidants to discuss matters and surrender after going through the motions.

Just then, the thunder exploded.

There are fires flashing in the north, west and south directions, and thick smoke is shattered.

The whistling sounded, and blood marks suddenly appeared among the gathering group of Turkic cavalry.

The broken limbs and arms flew around, blood splattered everywhere, frightened horses ran away in scattered, and many people fell off their horses.

Such a brutal lethal power made the Turkic soldiers frightened. Although they had fought with the Chu army last night, it was night, and both sides shot in the dark, and they couldn't see the bloody and cruelty at the scene.

Now, who can stand watching the companion breaking in front of you and watching the "human and horse split"?

Anluo's head was blank by this sudden attack, and then came to his senses: the Chu army even saved the persuasion of surrender, and directly attacked, and did not want to leave a living at all.

The thunder continued, and the Turkic cavalry scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing in all directions.

But I couldn't escape because there were Chu soldiers everywhere.

Anluo could not stop the defeat, nor did he dare to stay in place under the shooting of Chu army weapons. He subconsciously led his entourage to break through the direction of few people to the west.

But it was blocked by the barbed wire that looked "weak", and people kept falling down.

Anluo tried to cross the first barbed wire mesh by steering his mount, but was tripped by the second barbed wire mesh, and fell off the horse, making him dizzy.

After finally standing up, my clothes were hooked by a large number of iron bars on the wire mesh and I couldn't move.

Seeing the infantry behind the barbed wire, he slowly bent his bow and arrows, shooting them as living targets, and his head was bleeding. Anluo waved his hands, swayed his half-baked Chinese, and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"I am the Turkic Khan, Khan!! I can get a great reward when I capture me alive!"

I don’t know if he couldn’t speak clearly in Chinese, or if these Chu soldiers couldn’t understand his accent, and did not stop his movements and kept firing arrows.

An arrow hit the chest, and it was no big deal that he was wearing armor.

Another arrow flew and shot his knee without armor. It hurt that Anluo staggered, couldn't stand steadily, and slid down.

However, his clothes were hooked by barbed wire, so he couldn't slide down. He hung them on the barbed wire, just like a bird hanging on a net.

The arrows were falling like rain, and the Chu infantrymen really didn't plan to keep alive, and treated them as targets for live arrows.

Some people kept falling into the ground by arrows, cursing, wailing, moaning, and then the sound decreased and there was no movement.

The Turkic soldiers who failed to break through either jumped off their horses, kowtowed on the ground, or fell to the ground to pretend to be dead, but were bathed in the rain of arrows again and again.

Anluo, who was hung on the wire mesh, was hit by a few more arrows on his body and head. Fortunately, he had armor and a sling to protect his body, so he did not die on the spot. However, seeing that his subordinates around him fell to the ground one by one, the fear in his heart became stronger and stronger.

The Chu infantrymen stopped firing arrows, and many soldiers held their spears upside down and walked forward slowly, climbed over the wire, and "broken" the Turkic soldiers who fell to the ground or hung on the net.

Then cut the head.

Seeing these soldiers approaching slowly, two of them came to him and shouted, "I am the Turkic Khan, the high-ranking official!! You capture me alive, the emperor has..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a flash of cold light and his throat hurt: it turned out that a man poked his neck with a spear and directly penetrated it.

This pain made An's logic quickly and blurred his consciousness, and fell into the dark abyss with unwillingness.

"This guy looks like a big man?" Chu Bing, who held the spear and pierced the target's throat, said curiously, pulling out the spear, and then the breastplate was red by the slight blood splashed out of the wound of the deceased.

Another soldier pulled out his short knife, walked forward, cut off the lace of the pants, pulled off the pants, then pulled the deceased's hair, and then wiped the knife to his throat.

"What if he doesn't matter, just cut the head level. The boss said that no one will be left, just keep the head level. As for whether he is a big shot, he can identify it afterwards... Alas, don't watch it, can't cut it, come and help!!"

In the distance, on the mound, Huang Yuan, who was ordered to come to supervise the battle, looked at the bloody scene in front of him and sniffed.

Dare to plot against my uncle? How many lives do you have?

Then he ordered: "Let them move faster and remove their weapons and armor. After a while, the people nearby will come here to collect the bodies."

After hearing this, the left and right asked, "Doesn't it be better to leave the hard money for collecting corpses to everyone to make money? Why give it to outsiders? Besides, how can ordinary people bear this scene?"

"What do you know? Only by letting the local people collect the body can they see the power of the official army with their own eyes!" Huang Yuan finished speaking, holding the horse whip and pointing forward:

"Longyou issued an edict and many people were probably not convinced. Let them see what the consequences of confronting the government army!"

"No matter how powerful they are, are they as powerful as Turkic people?"

"Work quickly. When the people around you receive the news, they will definitely come to collect the corpse and exchange for money, or dig a hole. You must know that if you can get a corpse to the edge of the hole, you can get thirty cents!"

Someone asked again: "During the festival, how can you calculate money for those kind of rotten corpses? Their heads were cut off."

Huang Yuan laughed when he heard this: "How to calculate money? Just weigh the pound!"
