Dahan Pirate Air Force

Chapter 229 Conong Golden Drum

Azar himself still led the charge. Wherever his iron spear touched, there was no enemy.The Kushan cavalry followed closely behind him, constantly shooting arrows and finishing blows, and soon the barbarian riders began to collapse.

After a charge, Azar looked back at his team.There were very few empty horses, indicating that casualties were minor.

Azar was very satisfied. He turned his horse's head and led the soldiers to attack again. This time Azar and his veterans took the lead. The recruits behind them fired their bows and arrows. This time they charged down and once again penetrated the enemy formation. The barbarian riders There have been three to four hundred casualties on the front.

At this time, the North City Gate suddenly opened.

A square formation of Forbidden heavy armored infantry came out of the city, lined up on a shield wall outside the city, and waited quietly, threatening the flanks of the Kushan cavalry.Azar understood the formation as soon as he saw it, and immediately shouted an order to keep the team away from the city wall and infantry, and not to attack the Forbidden Army.

However, some of the tempered cavalry did not hear Azar's order and rushed towards the Forbidden Army.

These troops were mainly new recruits. They did not notice that the imperial army only left the city and did not leave the city wall too far.

The imperial troops on the city wall took the opportunity to shoot arrows at the cavalry attacking the shield wall. Soon some of the cavalry began to fall to the ground after being hit by arrows. By the time the remaining ones rushed to the shield wall, more than half of them were dead or injured.

After a charge, both sides suffered losses, but the bows and arrows on the city wall became increasingly dense, and the cavalry gradually retreated, leaving more than a dozen dead bodies on the road.

Azar stopped his horse, turned around and scanned the battlefield. When he saw a fallen military flag on the ground, he galloped over. When he reached the place, his horse kept running. He hooked one leg on the horse's back, retracted his whole body into the horse's belly, and leaned over to pick it up while running. He picked up the flag, then turned over and sat on the horse, straightened his body and shouted loudly: "Everyone look at the flag, don't rush, follow me!"

With a shout, Azar held the flag in his left hand and a spear in his right hand, and rushed towards the enemy cavalry troops.The Kushan cavalry saw the banner and understood the direction of the attack.Seeing the bravery of the coach again, everyone's morale was greatly boosted. They shouted in unison and followed the banner and rushed into the enemy's position again.

In less than half an hour, the nomadic riders were completely defeated.

They fled north one after another, and Azar led his army in hot pursuit, firing arrows while chasing.Although the nomadic riders failed as a whole, in terms of individual skills, these people are still quite good.Seeing that the Kushan cavalry was chasing closely, they immediately fired their arrows to return to their horses. This is the nomadic people's best horse stunt.

In this way, both sides went back and forth, arrows intertwined, each suffered damage, and they were getting farther and farther away from the north gate of Peshawar.

But no matter how far away, Azar still urged the cavalry around him to pursue with all his strength, with no intention of stopping. He knew in his heart that to the north was the Kabul River, which was not deep but wide. It was impossible for the riders to take a detour or find a bridge. They had to Straight across the river.

The cavalry entering the water is like a tiger entering a cage, and its speed and power will be lost instantly.

Attack halfway across the river, such a good opportunity must not be missed.As long as this force is defeated and its remnants are driven north of the Kabul River, the cavalry threat from the north will be completely over.

From a military perspective, without the cavalry, the remaining slow infantry of Taha's Forbidden Army actually had no offensive power. He only needed to consider siege tactics and food supply.

His determination could not be changed. He ordered his troops to spread out and outflank and pursue them, and they must drive the barbarian riders into the Kabul River.

......

To the east of the city, at the Kabuli City Gate, the city gate that had been closed slowly opened, and a cavalryman rode into the city alone.

He submitted a letter of persuasion from Azar to Nan Hua and others, but when he learned that the person who received him was actually the old god Jalama, he could no longer say the word of persuasion, and had to express the hope that both sides would unite. desire.

Nan Hua actually didn't like politics. When he launched the Yellow Turban Uprising, he was passionate on the one hand, and he followed the current situation on the other.He didn't care whether to surrender or form an alliance, and he didn't know much about Azar, so he told the envoy to go back and send a message and come back with a specific alliance plan, or send someone with the power to make the decision to negotiate.

The messenger quickly returned, still taking the road outside the city.

Daolao was on the side, looking at this scene with some worry. He reminded Nanhua: "Could the Immortal have noticed that the envoy took the road outside the city and took a long detour?"

Nanhua didn't understand what Daolao meant, so he replied: "The roads in the city are difficult, and the messenger's horse is fast. It's normal to go outside the city. What's wrong?"

"I feel that this shows that Azar's cavalry failed to control the city, and Peshawar is still ruled by the Forbidden Army."

Nan Hua suddenly understood. He nodded to Daolao, "I hope Solomon and the others will arrive soon. We cannot control Peshawar with our own hands."

......

By the Kabul River, nomadic riders are roaring and risking their way across the river amid splashing water.Azar, who was pursuing, stopped on the bank and ordered the soldiers to continuously fire arrows into the river.

The nomads were like dry ducks in the water. They could hardly even turn around and fire arrows while riding on their horses. They could only be attacked by the arrows of the Kushan cavalry. Their armor protection was poor, so they suffered numerous casualties.

The current of the Kabul River carried the corpses of people and war horses, slowly drifting downstream. Puddles of blood flowed down the river, and the river water was glowing with red.

There were only 900 riders left who had escaped to the other side. After crossing the river, they continued to speed up without even daring to look back. They just hit their horses and fled north as hard as they could.

"Victory! Azar!"

The Kushan cavalry were in jubilation, and Azar's name could be heard everywhere in the cheers.

Hazard enjoyed the thrill of victory and had a smile on his face. After all, he is a young man and likes this sense of accomplishment.However, this only happened for a while. He understood that the closed North City Gate was still in front of him, and he was still far away from defeating Taha and avenging the Sega clan.

More importantly, he is not a politician. Even if he wins this battle, he has no idea what will happen to Kushan in the future.

"The entire army will rest for half an hour, treat the wounded, and clean the battlefield. After resting, we will return to Peshawar." Azar calmly ordered.

......

Seeing the rout of the nomadic riders, Taha's face twitched on the north city gate tower.

"Is it over? Is it over like this? These bandits took money and did not work, but Azar drove them away like sheep. The barbarians are really unreliable." The guards nearby saw Emir getting angry. , I didn’t dare to speak loudly, and no one answered.

Taha stabilized his mind and ordered: "Send another messenger to the west and south to urge reinforcements."

The men went as ordered, and Taha looked at the sky worriedly. There was a spaceship floating in the sky, as if a god was inspecting the world.

"I wonder what's going on with God Kosubura? It would be better if nothing happens." Taha became more and more anxious as he thought about it.
