Chapter 647: The Cavalry That Appeared Behind

"Boom ......"

The Great Zhou cavalry is near!

It's closer!

The soldiers of Chu Yue Kingdom had not yet come to form an effective military formation.

Arrows from the cavalry came in a flying way.

"Woo Woo ......"

"Puff puff ......"

In a hurry, Chu Yueguo's sword and shield arrays were all skewed, and they were all sparse and chaotic.

A rain of arrows followed.

Countless soldiers of the Chu Yue Kingdom fell to the ground with arrows.

Let out a terrible howl.

The war cavalry rushed forward, the short soldiers were handed over, and the soldiers of Chu Yue Kingdom did not rush to stab out the spear and Changge.

The cavalry of the Suzaku Army rushed in.

The sword swings, slashes and slashes.

The spear stabs, stirring between.

The soldiers of Chu Yue who were standing in front of him were crushed and knocked away.

The cavalry rushed in along the official road, and went straight to the center of the army of Chu Yue.

Although there are only three or four thousand horsemen, the destructive power is amazing.

Seeing that the army of Chu Yue could not be stopped, only a few generals were resisting stubbornly, and most of them ran to the mountains or river beaches on the left and right flanks.

"General, quick, go up the mountain first, Zhou is riding strongly, be careful of being trampled by horses!"

The generals escorted Xiang Yan to the mountain.

Xiang Yan raised his arms and said angrily: "It's all out of the way, the general doesn't need your protection yet, try to maintain it for me, there won't be too many Zhou cavalry, there are no masters, stop the Zhou cavalry for me, even if you can't leave them all, you can't let them go easily!" ”

Xiang Yan himself also has force, and it is not low.

As a general of Zhenxi, he didn't want to flee in embarrassment, so as not to make the army's morale even more chaotic.

Sure enough, Zhou rode in a round, turned around and rushed north again.

Three or four thousand cavalry ravaged a handful, and there were not many casualties, only about five thousand people.

However, it brought great trauma to the army of Chu Yue Kingdom, and it also had the power of deterrence.

Zhou Cavalry cannot fight.

If you fight, you will suffer.

Xiang Yan's face was as heavy as ink, as if he was about to drip water.

The flat ground below the mountain was a mess, and the wailing continued.

These are pretty good.

After all, the main force is still there.

What Xiang Yan is most worried about now is the two groups of soldiers and horses that set off in front.

They didn't know that the Zhou cavalry was behind, and they were just guarding the front, so they probably didn't expect that there would be enemies behind them.

There is a long shot on the official road, and when it is trampled, it will die even more tragically.

"Save people immediately, integrate the army, and after half an hour, we must all organize and send reinforcements to the north!"

Xiang Yan put the sword into the sheath and made such a decision with great difficulty.

If you don't go to support, the two groups of armies that set out in front will be eaten by the Suzaku Group Army.

But reinforcements may not be able to save these two groups of Chu Yueguo's soldiers, and it is also possible to put themselves in.

The gains may outweigh the losses.

Still, he gave such an order.

Because time doesn't allow him to think too much.

Not much when given to him.

It is better to die on the way to charge than to fall under the retreating sword.

Half an hour later, the reorganized army of Chu Yue ran quickly to the north.

The fires in Hexian County are still burning.

The people of Chu Yue south of He County still can't get by.

Blocked to the south of the Fire City.

can only wait for Xiang Yan's new order.

The 4,000 cavalry of the Great Zhou Dynasty returned from three cavalry regiments.

It turned out to be a cavalry attack on Wudang, and it also turned back.

After the convergence, there were five thousand cavalry, but there were still one thousand staring at the second group of troops sent by Xiang Yan.

Until the other party didn't notice anything unusual, after the south's own men and horses turned back.

Only then did they all kick towards the buttocks of the second batch of Chu Yue Guo army.

There are also capable generals sent by Di Qing in the team, as well as Li Bai, a master of the rivers and lakes, and others.

The second batch of Chu Yue troops did not know that there were enemy cavalry behind them.

In front of the plus, there is also a group of their own people.

Therefore, the vigilance is not high, and the marching ranks are even more scattered.

"What's the voice behind you?"

"It seems to be the sound of a war horse galloping!"

"Reinforcements sent by the general? Does my Chuyue country have cavalry? ”

"Yes! Not much, it doesn't seem to be in Nanyang County, it's in the Runan area! ”

Just when the second batch of Chu Yue troops were puzzled and discussing, the cavalry behind them caught up.

There is no flag, and it is not easy to see clearly at night.

Not even many torches.

From afar, you can't see anything clearly.

Until it was closer.

The Chu Yue soldiers at the back all showed frightened expressions.

The reaction came back and shouted: "It's not good, it's ......"

"Woo Woo ......"

Arrows rained down from behind.

The soldiers of Chu Yueguo, who just wanted to speak, were shot one after another, and fell to the side.

More were killed directly on the spot.

At this time, the soldiers of Chu Yue finally knew that they were enemies.

But what you know is what you know.

The cavalry was killed.

Swords and spears.

Swing the thorn.

The soldiers of the Chu Yue people were rushed and flew.

"Puff ......"

The sound of the blade seeing the flesh is endless.

The cavalry had a strong momentum, and along the official road, they easily rushed and went all the way to the north without any obstacles.

………………

Wait for Xiang Yan and others to rush to the battlefield with the main force.

The second group of soldiers were all killed, and those who did not die fled to the mountains, and Zhou Cai really couldn't catch up.

Looking at the 8,000 soldiers lying on the official road, the entire section of the official river flowed like a river.

The blood on the corpse was still warm, and the wounded soldiers of Chu Yueguo who looked frightened in the wailing were also everywhere.

Xiang Yan asked people to treat the injured and clear up the truth.

Gather your weapons and armor.

On the one hand, he found a thousand-person lieutenant general who escaped death.

"Back to the general, there are about 5,000 cavalry in the Great Zhou, it's too fierce, we are killed from behind, we have no defense at all, and we can't hide in a hurry on the official road."

Xiang Yan's brows furrowed into Sichuan eyebrows, and he asked, "Where did the Zhou cavalry go?" But it went to the front of our army. ”

The lieutenant shook his head and said, "General, most of them went to the northwest, and they should have gone to Wudang County to defend the city."

Only a thousand cavalry continued north along the official road. ”

Divide the troops!

Why?

I felt exposed, so I didn't need the main cavalry to attack the front team.

There are still other plans.

However, there is one thing that Xiang Yan understands, that is, Wudang County has been lost.

The Zhou cavalry was in the direction of Wudang County, which was very unfavorable for him to continue to advance northward.

Because these four thousand cavalry could appear behind him again at any time.

It wasn't the front team that injured the abdomen and back.

It's the whole workhorse.

So you can't just leave it alone.

But if you want to stop these 4,000 cavalry, you can't do it without 10,000 foot soldiers.

It is necessary to set up a fortress on the official road here on the three-way road to amplify the Zhou cavalry from behind a surprise attack.

10,000 foot soldiers were divided, and the main force was weakened by one point.

You must know that the total number of soldiers and horses he brought was only 100,000, and after several battles in front of him, he lost nearly 17,000 men and horses.

The front team was divided into 15,000 people, and there were 20,000 horses in Hexian before.

Therefore, the number of soldiers and horses he carries with him now is only 48,000.

In Wanyi, the Chinese army will only be 38,000.

That's not a lot.

If Shunyang can take it, it's okay.

If you can't take it, how can you face off head-on with the 50,000 Suzaku Group Army.
