Chapter 487 The Hero's Twilight
Fu Baoguo is a veteran in battle. Although he hoped to rescue the old marshal, he still did not use all his troops for rescue, but left half of the iron cavalry. After all, his current responsibility is to build Another iron-bone pass city, to keep blocking Dongxuan's invasion to the maximum extent!
However, the current battle situation has changed drastically, and the situation is very different. With Yun Yang's strong entry into the battle, the morale of his side has increased exponentially, especially since the Nationalist Army and half of the iron cavalry have joined the remnants of the old marshal. Go all out, otherwise it is very likely that not only the remnants of the old marshal will not be rescued, but also the Nationalist Army and half of the iron cavalry will be buried with them!
At that time, the loss outweighs the gain, and it will greatly damage the strength of the new line of defense. How can we resist Dongxuan's army for a long time!
However, judging from the current situation, the morale of the Yutang side has skyrocketed. Not only can the remnants of the old marshal be rescued, but the first half of the iron cavalry will not be damaged too much when they report to the national army. Taking the opportunity to fight against Dongxuan for a while and dampen his spirit will be of great benefit to the continuation of the subsequent battle!
In view of this, Fu Baoguo decided to go all out and launch a general attack!
Seeing Fu Baoguo's actions, Yun Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out a few bottles of pills from the ring, three pills each, and gave them to Bai Yixue and others. At the stage of exhaustion, it is only supported by one breath, and the vitality of the dry lake is just enough. Seeing the good medicine suddenly appearing, naturally, he swallowed it dryly in one gulp.
And it was obviously not the time to exchange pleasantries, and after taking a breath, everyone mustered their strength and rushed out in one go, rushing and killing all the way.
At the right time, Dongxuan's army had no commander to issue orders at this time, so they had no way of responding.
When Zhange returned to another flag fight again, intending to continue to play command flags and regroup, he saw that Yutang's army had merged into an angry dragon, rushing away all the way!
Yutang successfully broke out and left without a trace!
Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Zhan Ge came down in disgrace, and ran all the way until he arrived in front of Han Shanhe, and said with some complaints: "Teacher, why are you..."
I just uttered a few words, but felt that my tone was too heavy, and even more disrespectful. It was definitely not the attitude that should be spoken to the teacher, so I subconsciously stopped.
Han Shanhe smiled: "You want to ask me why I didn't take over the command just now, do you?"
War Song nodded.
In the battle to kill Qiu Jianhan just now, Han Shanhe didn't intervene, and handled the whole process by himself.
In fact, Han Shanhe gave up commanding the army and handed over all the power to War Singer since he broke through the iron bone pass west gate.
"Qiu Jianhan is a few years older than me..."
Han Shanhe watched the fluttering flags fluttering in the air, sighed a little bewilderedly, and said, "In terms of military career alone, especially my seniors, they are confidants who have fought with each other all their lives..."
"Earlier, I had no choice but to follow your plan, and used a sneak attack to severely injure Qiu Jianhan. At that time, I already felt very helpless... Now, I really can't bear to see this lifelong enemy, a lifelong opponent... just Died so horribly on the battlefield...especially if...with no bones left, the one who died on the battlefield with his head in a different place..."
Han Shanhe's voice contained too many sighs.
War Song was stunned when he heard the words.
Suddenly, it seemed that he understood Han Shanhe's thoughts, and his heart was shocked.
To die on the battlefield is the fate of every soldier, and it is also the highest honor of a soldier.
But... it definitely does not include, when he has no strength to fight back, his head is cut off in a daze!
That is definitely the biggest shame for the fighters, a shame that cannot be washed away!
The most suitable ending for a hero is to die in a fierce battle on the battlefield, but he should never be delirious after being attacked, lie there with his last breath left, and then be beheaded for military merit !
Today's Qiu Jianhan might not be tomorrow's Han Shanhe, or even Zhange himself at that time!
The teacher probably saw himself in Qiu Jianhan, right?
A battle song that compares your heart to your heart, thoughtful!
"Famous generals are like beauties since ancient times!" Han Shanhe sighed a little sadly: "Greyheads are not allowed in the world. Qiu Jianhan...beard and hair are all white...ah..."
The pause in the middle of this sentence made Zhan Ge's heart feel like being hit by a drum and a heavy hammer.
Yes, whether it is a generation of military gods or legendary marshals, they are bound to retreat from the long river of history; the bright time that belongs to them... At most, it will only last for a few decades!
Such as Qiu Jianhan, such as a teacher, is already an extremely lucky existence!
"In this battle, Yutang has already lost, and there is no room for change." Han Shanhe said sadly: "I believe that even if Qiu Jianhan can save his life temporarily... After all, he will not live for a few more days, Zhange, why bother?" Let a generation of heroes be decapitated? No matter how hateful he is when facing the enemy, it gives you a headache, but, in any case, it is undeniable that he is an opponent worthy of respect, and he is a hero worthy of everyone, especially soldiers. !"
Zhan Ge was ashamed, bowed and said yes, and no longer entangled in this matter.
...
there.
In the chaos, Yun Yang and others finally protected Qiu Jianhan's carriage and came to Fu Baoguo's camp.
Fu Baoguo rushed over immediately, and asked anxiously, "How is the old marshal? But is there any problem?"
Yun Yang sighed, his heart was equally heavy, not inferior to Fu Baoguo, even worse.
In fact, he was also about to ask this question, and he already wanted to ask when he just broke through.
But he dared not ask. He was afraid, really afraid, lest what he heard would be news that he could not bear!
I have lost so much!
I don't want to lose it anymore, I can't lose it anymore, I can't lose it anymore!
God!
This question that has been lingering in Yunyang's mind for a long time was asked by Fu Baoguo. He clenched his fists tightly, but his ears were pricked up, listening nervously, listening to the unavoidable answer!
"The old marshal was seriously injured at this time. He was attacked by the magic archer Jin Wudang at the beginning of the decisive battle at Ximen, and he was shot by an arrow..." Bai Yixue was full of shame, after all, Qiu Jianhan was Under his protection, he was attacked by a back arrow.
In any case, it was his ineffective protection and a great shame that could not be cleared.
"...that Jin Wudang has also been beheaded by me in the chaos army..."
Bai Yixue said something weakly, but Yun Yang greeted him with a sharp look.
The magic archer Jin Wudang has always been known as the number one arrow in the world.
Weapons such as arrows have always been used exclusively in the military. Very few people in the Jianghu also use bows and arrows as weapons;
But this magic archer Jin Wudang is different.
Because his most important and only weapon is the bow and arrow!
This is also his only means of attack, all of his skills are tied to the bow and arrow in his hand!
According to legend, this man's archery skills have been practiced to the point of perfection; the strong bows in the army are no more than six stones; That's all.
Because such a strong bow is almost the limit that the human body can bear, and it is also the limit that can be continuously activated by manpower
However, this magic archer's strong bow is made of star wood and dragon tendons as strings.
Someone has measured that it takes at least thirty stones to fully draw this bow.
This bow shoots an arrow, and the rate of fire is so fast that it is invisible and invisible, even the naked eyes of the mountain-level profound practitioners may not be able to catch it.
According to legend, only after his arrow has hit the target, and there is a pause for a moment, the sound of the sharp arrow whistling in the air will be conveyed, and the firing speed is even faster than the speed of sound!
But this Jin Wudang is not only an archer, but also an assassin.
This time, even Bai Yixue didn't expect that in order to defeat Yutang's army as soon as possible, Dongxuan's party actually invited this magic archer here, specifically targeting Qiu Jianhan, and successfully succeeded!
Even if Bai Yixue showed his supernatural power afterwards and killed the magic archer, the old general would be severely wounded by this hunter after all, the fact is established!
"How could things be like this?"
Yun Yang heard that he was just attacked by surprise, and he felt relieved: "I'll go see the old marshal. By the way, Bai Yi, come in and tell me, what's going on?"
For Yun Yang, who possesses the magic power of endless life, there are few internal injuries and external traumas that he can't deal with. Even if Lu Lu is gone and the vitality of life is gone, Yun Yang is still sure that he can turn the old marshal from danger to safety.
...
However, after the flames burned the city that day, Qiu Jianhan led the remnants of the army all the way out of the city, and then built a high ground at the west gate, and set up a battle at a position fifty feet away from the west gate!
It was a throat-locking formation, and it was also the place where the second natural barrier of Tieguguan was located.
If Dongxuan wanted to enter the hinterland of Yutang, he had to pass through the Iron Bone Pass.
And Tieguguan has only two gates, and it has been like this since the beginning of construction, one east gate and one west gate!
You broke through the east gate, but as long as I guard the exit of the west gate, you still can't do whatever you want, there is no way forward!
The facts were just as Marshal Qiu had expected. Although Dongxuan's army had settled in Tieguguan, when they rushed out from the west gate, intending to ride the horse Yutang, they were attacked by Qiu Jianhan!
Under Qiu Jianhan's strong command, the entire Ximen area became a desperate place. Dongxuan's army wanted to take advantage of the power of the new victory, and rushed forward with a single mind. Who would have thought that the outside world had changed drastically at this time. Some Dongxuan soldiers really died as many as they came out!
The circular formation led by Qiu Jianhan can be described as a killing formation, with an astonishingly lethal force. But anyone coming out of the west gate, no matter which direction they come from, cannot avoid being shot by bows and arrows!
After all, Ximen is such a big place, and there are only so many people who come out at one time.
It is absolutely impossible to form too strong combat power in a short period of time, so it really has to be slaughtered.
However, this situation only lasted for one day, and Dongxuan's extremely passive situation was broken.
Han Shanhe ordered that the west gate of Tieguguan be demolished, and even the city wall was pulled down!
The west wall is no longer there, and Dongxuan soldiers and horses rush out like a tide. Qiu Jianhan's lore formation is no longer targeted and powerful, and it will naturally be difficult to take effect. However, the old marshal Qiu would rather die than retreat, and deliberately sacrificed himself to serve the country Gain time and build another iron-bone pass defense line. With the old marshal's efforts to direct the soldiers and horses to fight fiercely day and night, for three days in a row, Dongxuan's army was actually contained!
However, after three days, the old Marshal had less than 10,000 troops left in his 50,000 troops, and it was hard to do anything.
But Qiu Jianhan seems to have made up his mind, since the Iron Guguan is gone, then I have no plan to go back alive.
He has been fighting on the front line, no matter how Shangguan Lingxiu, Bai Yixue, and Yunhou tried to persuade him, Qiu Jianhan just refused to leave!
He is Jiang Gui, old and spicy; once he has made up his mind, even a god can't make him change his mind.
Seeing that the old marshal Qiu will be buried here with his subordinates, a turning point has come!
It was at this time that Dongxuan dispatched assassins, targeting the old marshal's assassins!
Among them, the most famous one is the magic archer Jin Wudang; when the new round of fierce battle of the army is in full swing, Jin Wudang, who is wearing the uniform of a small soldier and hiding among the soldiers and horses, waits for an opportunity to approach Qiu Jianhan.
The arrow of life-saving and life-saving came at a very fast speed, finally Bai Yixue was keenly aware of the danger, and intervened with a sword at the critical moment, but it was a bit late after all. It's just that the arrow was crooked a little bit.
But fortunately there was such a slight deviation, otherwise that arrow would definitely pierce Qiu Jianhan's heart directly!
In the end, that arrow made a hole in Qiu Jianhan's body, and shot through his chest and back!
Qiu Jianhan was seriously injured and dying!
In grief and anger, Bai Yixue rushed into the Dongxuan army formation with her sword, and in the ten thousand horse army, she chased and killed the magic archer Jin Wudang, until he chopped the magic archer into minced meat, and even wanted to return a tooth for a tooth , Forcibly killing the main general of Dongxuan, and because of this, detonated Dongxuan's previous strategy of returning together, the jade broken tactic, Bai Yixue finally retreated, still hating the injustice.
Bai Yixue's strong kill made Yutang survive the fierce battle that day, but Yutang lost Qiu Jianhan's command after all, without Qiu Jianhan's command, Yutang's army was defeated like a mountain. It is doomed; even if Shangguan Lingxiu raised the banner of generals and worked hard to rectify the remnants of the army, it was only a slight improvement, and he could not deal with the Dongxuan army that kept pouring out like cold mountains and rivers!
Marquis Yun made a decisive decision and immediately ordered the whole army to break through the encirclement and retreat in the dark. Since there is nothing to be done, then he should preserve as much combat power as possible, return to Fu Baoguo, and work together to resist Dongxuan and shake Hanshanhe again!
Naturally, Dongxuan's army refused to let it go lightly. They pursued from behind, pursued it relentlessly, and quickly surrounded Qiu Jianhan's remnant. The military order to serve the country also rushed out to respond.
The two sides merged into one place, fought and retreated, and finally persisted until Yun Yang came to help; and then joined Fu Baoguo's army stationed at the bottom of Tianxuan Cliff.
Because of this, Ling Yutang and Dongxuan battle opened a new chapter!
...
Yun Yang quickly entered the tent, and at a glance, he saw Qiu Jianhan lying upright on a simple camp bed, bloodstained all over his body, and there were several wounds on his face.
Yun Yang didn't even feel the breathing of the old marshal, if it wasn't for the slow and weak rise and fall of his chest, Yun Yang would almost have doubted whether the old marshal had lost his ability to recover and lost his soul.
Under the dim light, the old marshal lay there quietly with his white beard stained with blood. Yun Yang's eyes became hot and he almost shed tears.
The old marshal who had devoted his entire life to Yutang looked so desolate and helpless at this moment.
