Chapter 6: The Death of the Tiger
As time passed, the situation became worse and worse for everyone in the car formation.
The pursuers will be supported one after another, and the chariot formation must be on high alert at all times, which consumes physical strength and has no reinforcements, and it is only a matter of time before they are crushed. However, as the sky darkened, the corners of Tong Yuan's mouth showed a wicked smile.
By the moonlight, Dong Jun maintained a formation in a group of ten and walked towards the sparse cavalry on the opposite side in an orderly manner.
That's right, it's used to walk, because it's easy to mess up when running, and most people in this era suffer from night blindness due to nutritional reasons, so a group of ten people walks quickly towards the enemy. No one panicked, the front row held contradictions, the back row held all kinds of weapons, and everyone was close to their comrades-in-arms and encouraged each other.
The enemy cavalry soon discovered the situation, some rushed on horseback, some shot arrows on the spot, but a few light cavalry could not shake a squad of ten men without high-quality cavalry guns. The sparse arrows themselves were only in the dark, and they were not accurate enough, and Dong Jun had a shield to protect them, so the casualties were not large.
As a result, the morale of the people was high, and after approaching the enemy's cavalry, most of the enemy fled on horseback. The few who resisted stubbornly were quickly defeated because it was a situation of one or two out of ten.
The remnants of nearly 100 cavalry retreated, trying to pull away and regroup. However, a fire suddenly broke out in the distance behind the enemy, and even the road was blocked by carts, wood, and stones, and some people shouted that the Qiang people would come to their aid and avenge Dong Gong.
Of course, this was arranged in advance by Tong Yuan and others, and when they saw three puffs of black smoke, Dong Bai first let the important baggage cross the river in advance. Tong Yuan and 150 others entangled with the enemy, and sent more than 10 people to ambush them. After the enemy passed, he took advantage of the darkness to block the road and set fire to disrupt the enemy army.
Of course, if there are too many pursuers, dozens of vehicles will be directly stuffed in the critical position of the narrow road, and the fire will be prepared in the east and north directions. Whether it was a north wind or an east wind, it was bound to be a mountain fire that would make it impossible for the enemy army to pursue, and the convoy fled quickly through the river, and once the distance was far away, the pursuers did not dare to pursue too far.
As a result, after condescendingly observing that only 200 light cavalry were in pursuit, the plan of first resisting and then disrupting the siege at night was adopted.
The first battle in the afternoon had already caused the pursuers to lose dozens of troops and horses, and at this time there was no way to concentrate on attacking the Dong army...... All that awaits them is the fate of being killed one by one.
However, it didn't stop there, Dong Jun suddenly shouted collectively: "Lu Bu is dead!" Surrender on your knees! ”
A person suddenly rushed out of the enemy's chaotic cavalry, only to see that the man was eight feet tall, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd, sitting on a fiery red horse, and shouting: "Jiuyuan "Tiger "Lu Bu is here!" The thief Hugh is talking nonsense! ”
Tong Yuan and Hu Lang'er's squad suddenly fired a volley, and immediately shot the "tiger" into a hedgehog, fell off the horse, and died immediately.
Tong Yuanjian saw that the person was only about one meter eight, far from the height of two meters and one of Lu Bu according to later generations, and under a gorgeous robe was a pair of two-grade armor worn by a soldier, which was obviously pretending to be a bluff.
But he still shouted: "Lu Bu is dead!" "Whether it's true or not, if you say you're true, it's true.
Suddenly, the enemy had no fighting spirit, and more than 20 people who had just resisted fiercely and stubbornly put down their weapons and knelt down to surrender, and the remaining few wolf horsemen rushed towards the Dong soldiers, but they rushed directly towards the northern river without fighting.
It turned out that horses could swim much faster than people, and light cavalry could escape across the river as long as they did not carry heavy cargo or wear heavy armor.
However, what they didn't expect was that the original woods were dark and dark, but when they reached the water, it was completely different. The bright moonlight shone on the sparkling river, and the position of each person was very clear. Hu Lang'er led the people to chase them to the river, set up bows and shoot arrows, and the enemies who rode into the water on horseback soon sank into the river with arrows.
There was only one enemy leader, probably with long hair and three pigtails tied at the end, probably dressed as a Huns, and it was difficult to see the explosion. When this man saw Dong Jun stretching his bow and shooting arrows, he immediately dived into the water and swam to the opposite bank. After coming ashore, due to the farther distance and poor vision, the crowd could not aim and shoot the arrows, and he was about to escape.
At this time, a team of men and horses with a large number of torches suddenly appeared on the other side of the river. The leader rushed out of one person, and a coquettish shout sounded suddenly, blue-purple gorgeous and exquisite armor, wrapped in a graceful figure, and the meteor hammer in his hand was as elegant as a breeze blowing willows. Rushing all the way into the mudflats on the riverbank, he couldn't stop shouting insults in his mouth.
It's not Dong Bai, who is it!
After Tong Yuan saw it, he couldn't help but hold his forehead and sigh, let you go for two hours first, and finally ran back when you heard the fight, this is really enough for Dong Bai.
The Huns, one of the leaders of the enemy's cavalry, were able to cross the river on horseback and swim across the river at the sight of an arrow. At this moment, Dong Bai rushed forward with a hammer, didn't he put himself in a very dangerous situation? What does Dong Wei think? Dong Bai is so reckless, isn't he also smart?
The Huns did not hesitate to draw out their straight-backed knives to face Dong Bai to kill, but Dong Bai stopped, and danced the meteor hammer in his hand into a circle in the air, the unique metallic luster was particularly eye-catching at night, and suddenly the muddy riverbank turned into the center of the entire stage, and everyone's eyes were focused on the confrontation between the two.
I saw that the leader of the Huns took the lead, although he was soaking wet, and his wet armor hindered the movement of his body, but his hand was meticulous, and at the moment when the chain ball had just crossed, he stabbed with a knife, only taking Dong Bai's throat.
Presumably, before the meteor hammer rotated around and hindered the blade, Dong Bai would be mortally injured and the winner would be decided. Of course, he has superb knife skills, and he can completely bleed and be seriously injured without dying immediately with a single knife, and then hold Dong Bai hostage, and then find the unwounded horse from the river bank to escape.
This plan is very dangerous, but he has the certainty of victory, more than ten years of battlefield crawling, training a skill, at this time no longer need to wait?
However, when the knife edge was close to Dong Bai's throat, Dong Bai suddenly let out a weird and tyrannical laugh. Her figure flashed backwards, the blade brushing her hair. Before the enemy could withdraw his sword or make a second move, he only saw the iron chain wrapping around the straight knife again and again, like a poisonous snake wrapping around.
With a sound of "bell", the end of the hammer was wound with the iron chain, and finally hit the knife, making the Hun leader feel a sharp pain in his right hand, and he couldn't hold it. Looking at it again, the sharp blade in the hand of the Huns has been entangled and taken away by the "poisonous snake", and the knife has also been bent by the chain ball, and it is being played with by Dong Bai at this time.
"It's too fragile, it's useless." The girl didn't react to the situation just now, and her voice was still like a plaything.
"Weird, weird, weird...... Monsters! "The man dared to resist where his weapon had been dropped, turned around and ran away.
Dong Bai said angrily: "I hate it when people call me that." ”
She threw away the waste knife and stooped forward, as swift as a cat. With five steps left, he threw the meteor hammer in his hand, hitting the back of the enemy's head, and immediately splashed red and white.
"Whoa, whoa!" With the last blow to kill, the whole Dong army cheered, for victory, for survival.
