Captain Asiba struggled to hold his stomach: "Brother Aji, I, I ask you to take back your life, this, this is about to counterattack, counterattack, I, I can't watch the brothers rush up, and I, and I'm going to the Central Army, please, please let me finish fighting before I leave. I, I beg you."
When he said this, he finally couldn't bear it anymore. He opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Tan Shihuai quickly stroked his back and said: "Um, that brother Asiba, you, you are injured too seriously, you are vomiting blood, you better take good care of yourself, let us help you kill the thief."
Captain Asiba glared angrily: "What a mess, I have a lot of blood and I would like to vomit more, but I can't vomit more than two mouthfuls, cough cough."
Zhu Xiuzhi on the side smiled and said: "Okay, okay, brother Axiba, you can rest here temporarily and watch the battle. When the bleeding stops and you regain your strength, you can attack again. I and Captain Luo still have more than a thousand troops here." Archers, they are good at shooting arrows anyway, so they can be used as infantry to attack, brother A Zhi, just give the order!"
Many of the surrounding generals were also furious and requested orders to attack.
Tan Zhi sighed, shook his head and said, "Didn't you realize that someone is missing?"
Everyone suddenly looked around, and finally, someone with sharp eyes discovered: "Hey, why can't you see Brother Hongzhi? Where has he gone?"
Everyone looked around and suddenly realized that Fu Hongzhi was no longer there. Tan Shihuai blinked: "Um, brother A Zhi, has brother Hongzhi been sent out to perform a mission for you?"
Tan Zhi nodded: "Exactly, before I came here just now, I realized that something was wrong, so I asked Hongzhi to arrange the escape route in advance."
Everyone was so surprised that they opened their mouths and were speechless. After a long time, Luo Shangwen finally said: "Well, the fight here was just right. We just repelled and eliminated the most ferocious wave of attacks by the demon thieves. Why do we have to withdraw?" ?”
Tan Zhi said calmly: "Are you sure we repelled the attack of the demon thieves? If the attack you are talking about is that they only used infantry and archers to attack our shield array, then they were repelled. But with the help of wooden armor, The machine man opened the formation door, and then used his slinging arm to throw the swordsmen of the general altar into the formation. With the cooperation of He Tianping and others, they attacked through the gap of the open formation door. This round of attack would be very dangerous, if it were not for the demon outside the formation. If the thieves stay still and watch the fight between tigers and tigers, but follow the whole army and charge in, then our formation will be broken."
When the generals heard this, they lowered their heads in shame. These words were like a basin of cold water, which cooled down the heads that were so excited just now. But these words were so true that it made people feel uncomfortable. Unable to refute, everyone raised their heads and looked at Tan Zhi. Liu Zhendao said: "Brother A Zhi, you saw the danger at that time and knew that we couldn't defend it. Did you arrange it like this?"
Tan Zhi sighed softly: "To be honest, I didn't know what kind of attack method the demon thieves would choose at the time, but I knew that they would definitely use an attack method that was unexpected by us to attack my front army. Instead of directly attacking the Chinese army, if the demon thieves want to concentrate their forces to attack, they will never spread out and spread out their forces like this."
"Just like this time, their attack formation abandoned five or six of our eight square formations, and concentrated the main force to attack our middle square formation. Almost all the more than two hundred swordsmen of the general altar who had taken the medicine were concentrated on In this direction, this is the consistent style of play of Xu Daofu's army, to find the weak point and break it in one fell swoop. We lost the opportunity and were sent around to the flank. Although we escaped the fire attack, we could only passively defend. ”
Speaking of this, Tan Zhi said in a deep voice: "So, I knew at that time that I was afraid that this place could not be defended, and the demon thieves were attacking us, instead of sending out surprise troops to attack our army and the Chinese army when they had already rounded our flanks. We must be cut off from each other. With Xu Daofu still having more than 10,000 troops in his hands, if he does not attack the Chinese army but cuts off our connection with the Chinese army, he can completely outflank and eat us. , but they did not do this, but attacked from the side, that is to say, they had a more insidious plan to defeat our army, and then drive us to counterattack the central army and make our central army chaotic. This is their purpose!"
Pei Fangming stomped his feet bitterly: "What a poisonous and insidious plan, we almost fell for it!"
Tan Zhi said calmly: "It's no wonder that everyone didn't expect it. The demon thief is really too cunning. I only realized this when I just heard He Tianping's words, because what we are facing today is not just the demon thief. With more than 30,000 soldiers and horses, there will also be troops in black robes. His help to these demon thieves is not just about more than 200 powerful pills. The more enemies lurk in the dark, the more dangerous they are. I must inform Brother Gui immediately of this news."
Having said this, Tan Zhi looked at Captain Asiba: "Brother, I have to trouble you to make another hard trip. You ride my horse over there. If you can't move quickly, please ask your fastest subordinate to take him with you." My token, go and explain everything to Brother Daogui, and tell him to be careful. Hei Pao is not dead yet, or a new successor Hei Pao has been elected. He is the most dangerous enemy in this battle. We must be on guard. Stop his sneak attack!"
Captain Asiba gritted his teeth: "It's okay, my body can still hold on, brother A Zhi, I'll go!"
As he spoke, he turned around and jumped onto Tan Zhi's mount. He leaned on the horse's back, slapped it hard, hugged the horse's neck, and rushed towards the Chinese army. He clung to it tightly. On the horse's back, one seems to be one with the war horse, and its superb riding skills are astonishing. And his remaining dozens of Dongman warrior subordinates also followed the horse, running wildly, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the smoke and dust.
Liu Zhendao's eyes widened when he saw it. He shook his head in disbelief and said, "I didn't expect that the riding skills of this Dongman chieftain were so powerful."
Tan Zhi nodded: "Brother Axiba also ran a caravan in Ningzhou before, walked on the Tea Horse Road, and rode horses on the mountain as if they were walking on flat ground. He was still very good. When I was in Wuling, I also rode a horse many times. I have ridden my horse. To be honest, when I first saw his riding skills, I was as surprised as you are. Although he cannot ride back and forth on horseback like barbarians, he can control the horse and move the horse. Baili, there’s still no problem.”
Having said this, Tan Zhi paused: "Okay, what we want to talk about now is to evacuate quickly. Our real enemy is not outside the formation, but here..."
As he spoke, he pointed at the nearly two hundred corpses of swordsmen from the Tianshi Dao General Altar lying on the ground, with a solemn look on their faces: "The time left for us should be running out!"
