Chapter 456: The brave who meet on a narrow road wins

Jiang Xia and the others chased after him for about three miles. After Jiang Xia began to slow down. What’s funny is that once he slowed down, the Tatar soldiers on the other side slowed down.

If Jiang Xia is so obviously tempted, then Jiang Xia will not be Jiang Xia.

He smiled and shouted: "Idiots, let's see you back!"

After saying that, Jiang Xia ordered: "The back team becomes the front team and retreat!"

Everyone immediately turned their horses and turned around and ran towards the Ningxia Zhongwei City Gate.

Every soldier who went out of the city to fight was very excited. This was the first time that the Ming army had tried to win since the war with Turpan.

Although the victory was not too great and the loss of troops did not take much advantage, it was already enough to boost popularity and boost morale.

While driving the horse, Gan Yong said, "Sir, I just killed five people. Kill five more people, I can save my life, hahaha."

"I'm still talking nonsense, run away, those fools are catching up." Jiang Xia yelled loudly with a smile, and shook the horse's reins, and the horse immediately accelerated.

The Turpan cavalry who wanted to lure Jiang Xia and the others into the deep saw that Jiang Xia and the others were about to reach the ambush point and turned around. They were so much of their losses that they were willing to let Jiang Xia and the others leave.

So the Turpan cavalry sounded the horn and turned around and chased him back.

It was naturally impossible for Jiang Xia to catch them up. She roared and let go of her horsepower and ran towards the city gate.

Gradually approaching the city gate, Jiang Xia was shocked that the city gate was actually closed.

He looked up at the city gate and shouted loudly: "Who has closed the city gate, open it quickly!"

On the city tower, Yan Song stretched out his head and looked at Jiang Xia, and said with a smile: "Master Jiang, aren't you very majestic, powerful, and amazing? Then please ask Lord Jiang to defeat the enemy and let us appreciate your style."

"Yan Song?" Jiang Xia glared. Logically, he had already put Yan Song in prison, so no one should have dared to let him out.

Finally, Jiang Xia cursed himself with a general idea. He had already realized who was the one who released Yan Song.

Liu Xiangfeng!

Jiang Xia no longer said anything to Yan Song, because he knew that Yan Song must have been determined to kill him. No matter how he said or scolded him, he would not open the city gate. The slander was just futile.

Jiang Xia turned his horse and returned to the team behind him. After stopping the horse under his crotch, Jiang Xia glanced at everyone and said, "The treacherous minister Yan Song closed the city gate and wanted to kill me. We now have 27,000 soldiers and horses, and the enemy's soldiers are at most 24,000.

Since the city gate has been closed and the retreat has been eliminated, we are fighting to the death with the enemy today. What do you guys think?"

"Yan Song, that bastard!" "If I let me go to the city alive, I will take him out of trouble!" "Damn it, curse him to give birth to a son without an ass!"

The soldiers cursed Yan Song with one word and another, and then Gan Yong shouted: "Okay, okay, now that's it. Let's listen to Lord Jiang and fight to the death with the other party!

I am willing to bring you a little bit into your style in this life and be able to fight side by side with you. It’s worth it, and it’s worth it to die!”

Gan Yong said this sincerely, and Jiang Xia was very moved when he heard it.

Jiang Xia patted Gan Yong on the shoulder and nodded, "I, Jiang Xia, also feel honored to know you."

After saying that, Jiang Xia got off the horse and picked up a big knife on the ground. He gently wiped the big knife in his hand with his sleeve.

He looked ahead and said, "Brothers, the general will inevitably die in a hundred battles, and the man will be covered with a horse and a corpse. Today we face a strong enemy, I hope everyone will not be afraid. As soldiers, it is our destiny to die in the battlefield. Today, let me fight a bloody road together, meet each other on a narrow road, and the brave ones will win!"

"The brave ones win when they meet on a narrow road!" First, the students in the martial arts lecture hall shouted in unison, and then the soldiers of the Beijing camp shouted loudly.

The Ming soldiers on the city tower were stunned. Except for Yan Song's personal guards, the other soldiers turned around and knelt down to Yan Song and said, "Sir, please open the city gate and let Lord Jiang and the others enter the city. They are fighting bloody battles for the Ming Dynasty. We cannot harm them like this."

"Crack!" Liu Xiangfeng snatched a steel knife from the hand of a personal guard of Yan Song, put it away and cut off the soldier's throat.

Liu Xiangfeng shouted sternly: "Who dares to say such things again? This is the end!"

After Liu Xiangfeng's iron-blooded method was shocked, all the soldiers did not dare to speak anymore. They all looked down the city tower at the same time, caring about Jiang Xia and the others' battle situation.

Seeing that all the Turpan cavalry gathered together, more than 20,000 cavalry were moving closer to this side.

Gao Jia raised the long sword that was still dripping blood in his hand and roared: "The horse leather is wrapped in corpses, and there is no fear of blood splashing on the battlefield!"

"There is no regrets when the horse is wrapped in a corpse, and there is no fear of blood splashing on the battlefield!"

The soldiers shouted in unison, and a sense of toughness that was fearless and stubborn suddenly emanated.

Perhaps because of respect for the opponent, the leader in front of the Turpan cavalry on the opposite side raised his right hand slightly, and all the Turpan cavalry lined up in a row, and the long swords in his hands were all pointed at the ground diagonally.

The leader himself also pulled out a long knife from his waist and pointed the tip at Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia remembered that man. During the battle now, he fought with that man for dozens of rounds, but he never distinguished himself from the top. It shows that man is also a master.

Jiang Xia also raised his big knife and pointed the tip at him.

Qiu Wenshi and Gao Jia commanded their own cavalry, and they were also lined up in one line. However, from the array, it can be seen that the gap between the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty and the Turpan cavalry in horse control technology was not a small part.

The opponent's formation is neat and uniform, while Jiang Xia and the others are a little curved.

Yan Song on the city tower smiled proudly when he saw this situation and whispered to himself: "Jiang Xia, don't you want to kill me? Let's see who died first today."

The Turpanese army leader pointed at the sword in his hand and roared in Mongolian words: "Kill!"

Jiang Xia also shouted loudly: "Kill!"

The two cavalrymen rushed over with the sound of shocking killing. The other party's leader rushed straight towards Jiang Xia. Xiao Sha and Qian Juexing originally wanted to fight the man instead of Jiang Xia, but Jiang Xia shouted: "You go away, I'll fight alone with him!"

On the battlefield, it is obviously a matter of putting the cart before the horse if the general does not command, but fight alone.

But now it is not a battle, but a desperate battle. It is a decisive battle with an equal number of people. As a man, duels must look like a duel. In this way, whether you die under the other party's sword or the other party's sword, it can be said that you die with dignity.

The Turpan cavalry grew up on horseback since childhood, and their equestrian skills were all born with cavalry seedlings.

As people who make a living by hunting on the grassland by nomadic hunting, they kill wolves and bears just a trivial matter, so the tough and powerful ordinary people of the Turpan cavalry are hard to match. They can chase 110,000 troops and horses with 30,000 troops and horses of the Ming Dynasty, which is not entirely because the Ming Dynasty's soldiers are incompetent.

Even though the martial arts lecture hall is well-trained, everyone is elite soldiers, but they still have a distance to fight with these Turpan cavalry, not to mention that the number of Turpan cavalry is far greater than that of the martial arts lecture hall students.

As for the other soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp, they didn't even have half of the elite students in the lecture hall, so the gap in strength between the two sides is indeed very different.

However, for Jiang Xia and the others, they still have two advantages.

First, the Ming soldiers were well-armed, and second, they had not retreated now and were afraid of death.

A Turpan cavalry stabbed into the lower abdomen of a Ming soldier. Without thinking, the Ming soldier threw the Turpan cavalry down from the horse's back. Without a knife in his hand, he bit the Turpan cavalry's throat with his teeth, and finally bit him to death.

However, while the Ming soldier killed the Turpan cavalry, the Ming soldier had already been inserted into four spears, and his eyes widened before his death.

Xiao Sha thought that the sword could not exert its power on the battlefield, so he also picked up a long sword.

He swept out three Turpan cavalry with one shot, and then drove his horse to Jiangxia.

Jiang Xia and the leader of the Turpan cavalry fought each other, and the war horses under their crotch took a few steps back.

Jiang Xia took the opportunity to cut off the head of a Turpan cavalry with one backhand. Xiao Sha reached out and grabbed Jiang Xia and said, "Brother Jiang, we can no longer fight against these Turpan cavalry, there are too many casualties."

Jiang Xia glanced around and saw that his troops had lost at least 6,000 in this short period of time.

He looked back at the city tower indignantly, then waved his sword and slashed two heads, and shouted loudly: "Retreat! All the Ming soldiers and horses retreat!"

Once Jiang Xia's order was issued, it was passed down one by one.

Zhang Meng and Qian Juexing were originally indistinguishable from a wave of Turpan cavalry, but now they heard the retreating Zhang Meng hit several Turpan cavalry with a hammer, then turned over and jumped onto his horse's back, and squeezed the horse's belly hard to retreat with Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia took the lead and led the Ming soldiers to evacuate south.

The man in Turpan, who led the army, pointed a sword in his hand and shouted with Mongolia: "Chase!"

Previously, the Ming soldiers were chasing these Turpan cavalry, but now their roles were reversed instantly. The Turpan cavalry became righteous and aggressive, and they are chasing the Ming soldiers, and they are chasing them relentlessly and unforgivable.

Jiang Xia was not familiar with the terrain and ran all the way into a narrow path. There were upright cliffs on both sides of the path, and the gap in the middle seemed to be slashed out by a giant axe. The width was only for two horses to run in parallel.

Although the terrain was dangerous, there were pursuers later, so Jiang Xia had no time to think more and took the lead in rushing into the path.

The Turpan cavalry chasing behind laughed when they saw Jiang Xia riding his horse and galloping into the path. He yelled in Mongolian words: "Shoot the arrow!"
