How many horse bandits are active in Shannan County, He Yangguang has a number in his heart, even if as Ma Li said, there are horse bandits from farther away, the number will not be very large, in such weather, it is necessary to have strong logistics support to dispatch people and horses, otherwise, in the vast snowfield, it is extremely normal to die of freezing and starvation.

Mrs. Lu and her entourage, with too much property, this may be the biggest reason for the covetousness of horse bandits, people die for money, birds die for food, those poor and hungry horse bandits are very likely to take risks for this big goal.

But in any case, the opponent will not be able to put together more than five hundred. This is He Yangon's estimate of the surrounding horse bandits, in fact, his estimate is also accurate, and the several horse bandits who were wiped out by Gao Yuan's continuous blows did not add up to 500 people.

But there were only 200 cavalry escorting Mrs. Lu, and if these horse bandits really gathered together, it was not something that these Eastern cavalry could resist. In fact, the combat effectiveness of these horse bandits should not be underestimated, and He Yangguang also knows this well.

A thousand cavalry rolled up the rolling snow dragon on the snowfield, and under the leadership of the horsepower, galloped forward.

After a quarter of an hour, the cavalry that had rested before caught up and continued to advance, while the front team stopped to rest, so that the cavalry would not lose their combat effectiveness due to overwork of the horses, and in any case, at least half of their troops would be able to immediately enter the battle at the first moment.

When Ma Li arrived at the moment of asking for help, it was just dawn, and after a night of fighting and wild running, he found He Yangon, and He Yangon led a thousand cavalry. The speed was a little faster, and when the night was about to fall, the front army arrived at its destination. And the horsepower, which has not rested, is dying at this time.

Pointing to the high place ahead, he said weakly: "It's there, General He!" ”

He Yangguang looked at the raised snowfield in the distance, indeed, where the car formation of the Eastern Army stopped, a banner of the Eastern Army was still flying high, but there. It doesn't look like a battlefield where fierce battles have taken place, calm, and what is displayed in front of He Yangon is a calm scenery.

There is no trace of a battle, and there are no horse bandits. Only the banner of the Eastern Army hunted in the wind.

He Yangguang's hand slowly grasped the hilt of the knife, and the eyeholes gradually contracted until his eyes narrowed into a slit. Behind him, the five hundred cavalry who had arrived with him all watched in amazement at this strange scene.

"It's a trap, retreat!" He Yangguang suddenly screamed loudly, "Retreat." The whole army retreated. ”

He Yangon took the reins of the horse, and the horse turned back, and his abrupt order was even for the well-trained Qin army. There was also a hint of panic at this moment.

At the same time, in the distance behind them, there was a sudden terrible sound of horns, and the rumbling of horses' hooves sounded. The ground trembled slightly.

"The rear team is attacked!" A Qin army officer shouted.

The horn of warning sounded incessantly, and then, the earth-shattering shouts of killing came from afar. He Yangguang's face was extremely ugly, looking at the horsepower lying on the saddle, he wanted to cut him with a knife, the facts are very clear, this fool has fallen into someone else's big fall, this is a trap set specifically for them.

What horse bandits, what robbed Mrs. Lu's convoy, this qiē was designed in advance, and it would not be someone else who designed them, but only the owner of the flag fluttering in the distance, the Eastern Army, Gao Yuan.

"Turn in, rescue team!" He Yangguang shouted angrily, the rear team had been running wildly for half an hour at this time, and when they were resting, they encountered a sudden attack, which greatly reduced the horsepower, and the cavalry battle, horsepower was the most important factor. The horse fell, what is the use of the cavalry's personal kung fu no matter how superb it is, dancing with a big sword, fighting on foot, no one else will slash you, and directly hit you into the sky with a horse.

He Yangon's horse's head turned halfway and stopped, because on the other side of the car formation, one by one cavalry suddenly appeared, looking at their dress, they were indeed horse bandits, but He Yangon only glanced at it, and knew that this was not a horse bandit, but a well-trained army. There were not many people, only about two hundred horsemen.

"It's him, it's him!" Ma Li's face was full of confusion, and at this time, he saw the burly man who appeared on the other side of the car formation, and immediately shouted.

He Yangon ignored him, because on their left and right sides, there was the sound of horses' hooves, and on each side there were about five hundred cavalrymen, and his hands were holding their swords tighter and tighter, and the cavalry that appeared in front of him at this moment had as many as one thousand and two hundred, and not far behind him, his rear team was under attack, and if he wanted to wrap his rear team around, he could not do it without more than a thousand cavalry.

It is easy for infantry to encircle and annihilate, but if you want to encircle and annihilate the cavalry, you must have an absolute advantage over the strength of the army and block all the directions in which the opponent may break through.

In other words, the enemy who has set a trap here has at least 3,000 cavalry.

"Backwards, rendezvous with the rear team!" He Yangon shouted loudly.

The five hundred cavalry ignored the enemy in three directions, turned their horses, and galloped in the direction of the rear.

The enemy in three directions, with a cry at the same time, crushed the war horses and chased after them.

"Zishou!" He Yangguang, who was running, turned his head to look at a partial general beside him, and shouted: "Remember, find an opportunity and break through immediately, even if you run out alone." ”

"General!" Zishou looked at He Yangon in shock.

"First go and warn our foot soldiers, let them withdraw to Shannan County immediately, and then quickly inform Lu Sima, close the city gates, and prepare for battle." He Yangguang ignored Zishou, "Do you understand, when we are about to join the rear team in a while, you immediately lead your troops to kill them from the crack while they have not yet closed the circle, don't care about the rear, don't care about other people, if you can kill a few people to report the news, it will be a victory." ”

"I see!" From He Yangon's tone, Zishou heard the severity of the matter. "Where did so many horse bandits come from?"

"What bandits?" He Yangguang laughed miserably, "This is the Eastern Army, the lofty Eastern Army, they are here to calculate us." Remember, you must go out to warn Lu Sima, close the city gates, there are still 3,000 people in the city, as long as the defense is properly, you can hold out for a while, as long as the stalemate is down, you can immediately mobilize troops to help. ”

"Lu Sima, he, can he be trusted?" Zishou can't help but suspect that the Eastern Army originally walked on this land under the banner of escorting Mrs. Lu.

"There's nothing wrong with Lusima, it's just that his mother was being taken advantage of." He Yangguang raised his knife high, "Zishou, break through, it's now!" ”

He Yangguang roared wildly, and his horse rushed towards the battlefield not far away, where the five hundred Qin troops had been surrounded by cavalry several times their Eastern Army's cavalry, cut and cut down one by one. Just as he was galloping forward, the partial general Zishou took his subordinates and rushed out to the side. The goal is precisely the gap between the two forces of the Eastern Army.

When He Yangon found out that it was the Eastern Army that surrounded him, he knew that the other party's goal was definitely not to annihilate their army, but Shannan County, and it was Shannan County that the other party wanted to take. What appeared now was a large-scale cavalry, but he had to worry about whether Zhao Guoyou had intervened in this matter.

If the other party's goal is Shannan County, then as long as Shannan County is held, it doesn't matter if the whole army is destroyed, because if Shannan County is defended, there will be a steady stream of reinforcements coming over to support, and the other party can't stand here, and in the end he can only leave in disgrace.

There is only one Shannan County, which was built by the Qin State with a lot of manpower and material resources, and a general like himself is a vehicle in the Qin State, and the Qin State can afford to lose his own general, but he can't afford to lose Shannan County.

On a high ground a little farther away, Gao Yuan saw the Qin army that had been surrounded on all sides, and also saw the Qin general Zishou who was killed from the crack at that moment, and couldn't help nodding and said: "The Qin army, it's really different, a little-known He Yangon, the opportunity to catch the fighter can be so accurate." ”

"It's vain to kill it." Behind him, Bai Yucheng said with a smile: "Helan Xiong's movements are fast enough, that Qin general only brought out more than 100 people, just leave this bit of people to me, and I won't let one go." ”

Gao Yuan glanced at the battlefield, the three thousand cavalry led by Helan Xiong, the infantry, Hengdao, Hutou and others had already encircled He Yangguang's troops within a very small range, they were already the turtles in Wengzhong, and it was impossible to escape with their wings. Here, there was no need for himself, he smiled and took off the broadsword from the saddle, "Why don't you go together?" ”

"To be able to kill the enemy side by side with the general again, Bai is lucky!" Bai Yucheng laughed, smashed the horse, sighed and neighed, and the war horse had already rushed forward.

He Yangguang didn't expect that the other party would still have reserves in such a situation, and Gao Yuan and Bai Yucheng had less than 100 people under them at this time, but these 100 people were all directly under Bai Yucheng's scout battalion, and they were the best among the cavalry.

In this battle, Gao Yuan can't let go of a person, because the annihilation of this cavalry is only the first step, and next, he has to attack the 3,000 foot soldiers brought out by He Yangguang, as for Shannan County, it will be handed over to Feng Fayong to attack.

As night fell, when Gao Yuan and Bai Yucheng slaughtered Zishou and his subordinates who had rushed out of the encirclement and returned to the main battlefield, the battle on this side had already come to an end, and under the light of countless torches, Qin general He Yangguang and the last dozens of cavalry were surrounded in a small circle, and around them, there were countless shiny sabers and sharp arrows. And these Qin people gathered together did not have much fear, on the contrary, they were singing.

"Rectify Lao Qin, the country will go to the country, the blood will not be shed, and there will be no truce to die!"

In the midst of the song, the remaining Qin army launched a final charge. (To be continued......)
