Or it's compressing the space for them to fight back.

Maybe in the eyes of the Tiele cavalry, the purpose of this kind of teasing was to form an encirclement, but Li De knew more than them, just when the scattered firewood was slowly burning clean and extinguished.

Li De suddenly ordered: "Defend in formation!" ”

The five hundred vanguard soldiers had already encircled all the cattle, and at this time they were ready to defend against the counterattack, and at the sound of the order, they quickly picked up the heavy shields from the carriage and quickly connected and supported.

It didn't take long for the shield wall to enclose the convoy.

"Drop the rocket!" Li De continued to command.

Listening to the sound and distinguishing the position, many archers will be able to roughly determine the position with a high probability, and the old and spicy archers can achieve more than eighty percent of the chance of hitting.

Li De did not have the ability of an archer to hear and distinguish positions, but his eyes could detect people in the dark, and even if it was dim, they could not escape his eyes.

The positions of the Zhuge crossbows on the convoy are well hidden, and the rockets are just passing through the fixed torches at the front in the process of the arrows being fired, and the arrows are soaked in fire oil, and they will burn after passing through the flames.

If it is a bow and arrow, then the hit of the arrow will be affected by the heat flow, but the Zhuge God crossbow will not, they are all small arrows with very strong firing power, and they don't need much sniper distance.

Li De ordered, and all the Zhuge Divine crossbows installed on the carriage were displayed, and at the same time, the five hundred vanguard soldiers all drew their bows and arrows except for the people in the front row.

At a very fast speed, the arrows rushed into the darkness, and the rockets of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow quickly hit a large number of targets, and the flames illuminated the enemy's figure.

If it weren't for the fact that the enemy was all cavalry, I am afraid that more than half of this wave of bow and arrow counterattacks would have been lost.

"Avoid!" The commander immediately gave the order, and Li De and the others heard someone shouting in the dark, but he couldn't understand it.

"Grand Governor, they're giving orders to hide." Those who understood immediately spoke up.

"Defense." Li De said to Shi Huaiyi and Luo Song.

"Who are they talking about?" Li De asked the scout, and the scout could understand the other party's words and naturally knew what the other party was through language.

"They are Tieler, if you don't guess wrong, this Tiele cavalry should be a horse team of Tieler's main force." The scout explained.

At this time, the commander of the Tiele cavalry was surprised, and when they saw the heavy and delicate shields in the caravan, they knew that the person in front of them was not an ordinary caravan.

He had wanted to leave at once, and then he thought about the goods and wealth in the wagons of the convoy, and so many livestock, that if they were to be wiped out, they would be happy enough for a long time.

When he succeeds or goes back to the three tribes to grab the things, it will be regarded as this year's taxes, and when he returns to the tribe, he will probably become a general.

With this wealth, he has enough to have a 10,000-strong army.

The law of the jungle is the strong, their concept is that they are more direct in doing things, they can go ahead of others if they have the ability and wealth, and their ambition, desire and greed are their true portrayal.

Seeing that the other party's 500 men had weapons and arrows, the commander chose to continue the battle after weighing the pros and cons.

"Scatter them!"

The commander gave an order, and at this time it didn't play much role in sneaking, in his opinion, even if the other party had a shield, the Tiele cavalry was no stranger to this kind of battle formation, thinking that the horse team would be scattered after the horse team charged.

As a result, his idea failed, and the cavalry charge met the spears made by the vanguard with the defensive shield, and the pestle was an iron shield wall and a horse rejection stake on the ground.

When the Tiele cavalry charged over and stuck to the shield, before they could figure out how to break the defenses, the crossbows on the convoy and the archers of the vanguard were already attacking.

The commander's orders did not have an effect, but caused them to lose quite a few men after the attack.

"Retreat!" Seeing that the situation was not good, the commander hastened to give the order to retreat when the losses could be bearable.

"The Metropolitan Governor wants to run." Scout said.

Li De quickly thought about the situation, there was no loss if he didn't chase them, if he launched an attack in the dark of night, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to leave everyone behind, and once the enemy fled back to their plan, it would be in vain.

The next thing that awaits will be the main force of the Tiele cavalry, and if they are let out, there is also a risk of exposure.

"Shi Huaiyi defends, and when they leave to quickly clean up the battlefield, I'm afraid we won't be able to rest and have to rush overnight, leaving a cavalry to prevent the enemy from pursuing."

Li De said everything he could come up with.

The Vanguard had trained intensively, and if they didn't rest, they could continue to fight, and now just traveling overnight was nothing to them.

Shi Huaiyi's flying horse took the initiative to undertake the preparation for the postponement.

Not long after the convoy was transferred, the Tiele cavalry really came back, and they did not charge blindly after they came back, but when they came, Shi Huaiyi had already extinguished the bonfire and asked the soldiers to dig a horse pit in the ground.

Each of them carried an iron sapper shovel on his horse, which was very effective in digging, and the vanguard was particularly good at this work, and it didn't take long to create a line of defense with the trap.

Seeing this, the Tiele cavalry already knew that the convoy was leaving, and the commander ordered the pursuit to continue, but just as they were about to come to the trap, many of the horses neighed unusually and were unwilling to continue to advance.

Each tribe has a different taming technique for horses, and the Turks may have performed a variety of difficult attacks and dodging maneuvers on horseback.

The composure of the Tiele cavalry was the first impression given to the vanguard, and their horses were reluctant to advance, and the owners of the horses realized that there might be an ambush ahead.

Someone was sent to carefully light the torch, and someone also deliberately took a shield to prevent it from being attacked by dark arrows after the light, and it was really not easy to distinguish the direction of the arrows in the dark night.

However, they thought too much about it, and checked with torches and found a large number of traps.

"How did they dig so many pits in such a short time?" The commander was directly surprised.

Labor efficiency directly depends on the tools, with the sapper shovel, it is much easier to use than the wooden shovel made of wooden planks, there is no need to worry about whether there are stone particles in the ground, anyway, a few more planing can be solved.

"Commander, we have checked, there is no ambush nearby, according to the trails left, there should be a horse team that has just left, should we pursue it."

The commander pondered for a long time, and had no idea of pursuing, he found that this caravan was very strange, and the combat effectiveness was very strong, and the point was that their style was not more like an army like a merchant.

When the situation was unclear to the enemy, the commander chose to send a scout team to investigate the situation first.
