"Retreat!"

After losing more than a thousand people again, Gzhidoro gave the order to retreat with a blank face.

"Leave 10,000 men to prevent the Han army from destroying the earthen fort."

Although he was about to withdraw, Gřidoro did not intend to make Gongsun have a better time.

Then, Gongsun Du watched Geridoro withdraw, and his originally happy face suddenly collapsed. Because the 10,000 people were divided into five groups, alternating between far and near, and surrounded the earthen fort with a sense of layering, as long as Gongsun Du dared to go out of the city, he would immediately face the attack of 10,000 horsemen.

However, then Gongsun Du laughed: "Hahaha, this is like that Geridoro of the Megatron Grassland!" Sure enough, he is worthy of being the son of Tanshi Huai, and he has his cunning style. ”

"He's the son of Sandalwood?"

Huang Zhong had time to think about it in his mind, so he said, "Lord, are you going out of the city to fight?" ”

Gongsun Du did not immediately refuse, but pondered the pros and cons.

Winning, obviously, is impossible. There are 10,000 elite cavalry, and the total number of Houcheng is only 12,000, and most of them are infantry troops, and the cavalry is only 4,000.

Lose, if you can be cautious, you shouldn't lose, or you won't lose too badly.

Looking at it this way, you don't have to think about it, you should reject it.

But there's one problem, and that's morale!

This thing can't be seen or touched, but it has the greatest impact on the direction of the battle.

The Han army, in the face of Xianbei has a sense of fear, morale is naturally low, this is the past ten years, Xianbei to the Han border for a long time caused by the disease, not last year Gongsun Du defeated Xianbei once can be recovered, let alone training can be consumed.

Xianbei's brutality and bravery have been deeply imprinted in the hearts of the people in these border counties. It takes victory after victory to wash it away.

Once, it's too little!

Now, because of his grandson Du here, the morale of the soldiers is not bad. But Xianbei successfully built an earthen fort and launched an attack with them, which was a big blow to morale.

This can be seen from the listless backs of the soldiers who left because of the change of guards, and the fear in their hearts prevailed.

"Undefeated is victory!"

Gongsun Du suddenly remembered such a sentence, so he made up his mind.

"Can the light cavalry trained by Tuoba Yi have the strength to fight?"

Huang Zhong was overjoyed and said: "My lord, most of the cavalry trained by Tuoba Yiqu is composed of the original Xianbei cavalry, and now after strict training, the combat power is even better than before. I don't dare to say that I have defeated several times the enemy, but if the number of people is about the same, I can definitely win! ”

When Gongsun Du heard this, he turned his head to Yang Yi and said, "You personally bring the three hundred heavy cavalry to Han Sheng's pressure array, and let the pro-army team listen to Hou Hansheng's orders together, this battle must not be defeated." ”

Yang Yi was about to refute when he heard this, but Huang Zhong was faster and said, "Lord, don't do it!" The pro-soldier team is in danger of the main public security, how can it move lightly! ”

Yang Yi was originally dissatisfied with Huang Zhong's words, but after listening to it, he disappeared, but was full of approval, and said: "Yes, lord, if the brothers of the pro-soldier team are gone, Xu Duwei and Wei Juncheng must not scold their subordinates to death." Therefore, please raise your noble hand and let your subordinates go! ”

"Poof~" Gongsun Du looked at Yang Yi's pretended pitiful appearance and laughed directly.

Huang Zhong was also amused, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and his face turned red.

"Alright, that's it." Gongsun Du stopped laughing and said, "Just send two hundred heavy shield soldiers over, I believe that with them, no matter how many arrows are useless." ”

"Yes, my lord." Yang Yi didn't refute it anymore when he heard this, because he could say that he knew better than Gongsun Du about the strength of the heavy shield soldiers, because as long as Gongsun Du was in the Shoushan camp, the training of the heavy shield soldiers and the round shield soldiers had always been watching.

"In this way, let Tuoba Yi lead five hundred light cavalry, and Han Sheng will lead his own army out of the city to fight."

"Yes, my lord." Seeing this, Huang Zhong couldn't say anything else, he could only be.

Soon, I saw that the gate of the urn city, which could not be smaller and could only accommodate three horses at most, opened, and one by one the extremely fast cavalry galloped out, galloping towards the two thousand Xianbei cavalry closest to the left.

Another 300 black cavalry stood firmly in front of the city gate after leaving the city, blocking the entire city gate behind, as if to ensure the safety of the retreat.

For some reason, this time Huang Zhong didn't shout to boost morale, and at the same time, he reminded the other party that 1,500 arrows flew out.

Although the enemy had already raised their guard and launched an attack at the same time when they heard the sound of the horses galloping, the arrows that flew earlier and faster than them still startled them. Even though more than 100 people were hit by arrows and fell to the ground and were almost trampled into pulp, it was obvious that they would not survive.

"Good!"

Seeing this, Gongsun Du and the Han troops on the city wall were all ecstatic and their morale was greatly increased.

"The wind is blowing~"

"The clouds are flying!"

"Weijia Hai Neixi~"

"Homecoming!"

"Ande Warrior~"

"Defend the Quartet!"

Gongsun Du couldn't help but sing a song and sang the song of the great wind of the ancestor of the opening dynasty. A group of soldiers also sang along, and their morale became more and more high!

Huang Zhong and the others, who were not far away, were also enthusiastic when they heard it.

Huang Zhong originally planned to start a confrontation with the Xianbei cavalry, because most of them were Gongsun Du's guards, and he didn't want to let the pro-army team suffer too much damage, causing Gongsun Du's usual safety problems. But now, he couldn't care so much, and there was a fire burning in his heart, which drove him to raise his sword and kill the enemy, and then look at the enemy's head with one knife after another.

"Kill~"

Tuoba Yi and the other horsemen, especially the pro-soldier team, also aroused the pride in their chests, and roared and followed Huang Zhong to kill them.

Huang Zhong is not called the number one fierce general today by Gongsun Du, but he is really so fierce, a phoenix tail knife made of Xuantian iron is like a life-seeking Wu hook, and it is spread out left and right, and the Xianbei cavalry is like paper paste, and one after another is cut off the horse.

"Withdraw~"

One rushed by, and the blood in Huang Zhong's chest rose, but he was not carried away, according to the plan, he shouted, and "ran" to the left first.

It is not right to say that they have run away, because the other four Xianbei cavalry have already rushed over, and they are not far away, and if they delay any longer, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not fall into the encirclement.

Inevitably suffered heavy losses, it is important to run away, anyway, this rush just now has been earned.

Tuoba Yi rose up, and when he heard Huang Zhong's words, his eyes suddenly cleared, and he hurriedly followed. If it had been before, maybe he would not have obeyed Huang Zhong's orders, but after a whole winter, he was impressed by Huang Zhong's martial arts, and even said to his brother Tuoba Zhong - "I have never seen such a skilled warrior in martial arts, if it were in their tribe, Tanshi Huai would have been killed long ago." ”

Thanks to Huang Zhong's sanity, except for being knocked off the horse, the others followed him back to the city smoothly, but they didn't come out of the city gate.

came back to his senses, and when the Xianbei cavalry found out about the plan, they wanted to find trouble with the heavy cavalry, but they found that the person was long gone.

Their role was to immediately step forward to support Huang Zhong once he was surrounded and attract Xianbei's attention. Therefore, when they saw that Huang Zhong had successfully escaped from the battle and was only being chased and ran, they immediately returned to the city.

Killed more than 300 Xianbei cavalry, but his own losses did not exceed less than 100 cavalry, and when Huang Zhong and the others returned to the west gate of Houcheng again, all the soldiers shouted-

"Long live the lord! Win! ”

"Long live the lord! Win! ”

……

Looking at the high morale, Gongsun Du knew that his plan had succeeded.

It's just that when I saw the loss of more than 50 light cavalry, more than 10 personal soldiers, a total of more than 70 people, my heart hurt a little.

Not satisfied with a four- or five-fold gap?

Soon after, Gřidoro returned, learned of Gongsun Du's actions, and severely scolded the 10,000 men who stayed behind, and then asked them to go to the earth fort to attack Gongsun Du to wash away their shame.
