Chapter 20: The Battle of the Canyon

"Father-in-law, the scouts have already discovered the people of the Hui Division, and they are still slowly approaching, and they will not be able to arrive for a while." Li Laiheng reported.

Li Guo smiled disdainfully: "Hahaha, these idiots, we were stupid enough if we didn't fight just now, and we didn't come when we were exhausted."

At this time, our army is almost rested, the trap has been dug, and there is a way to retreat. ”

Li Yan also laughed: "Haha, they are still a tribe in the end, not a regular army, it's okay to fight in a group, but I'm afraid it's not as good as the Zhu family's guards." ”

Hao Shaoqi has no knowledge, but the chief general and military advisor don't look down on the enemy so much, and the Hui Department naturally doesn't have any great ability.

So he immediately stepped forward and recommended himself: "General, I want to be a pioneer and frustrate the spirit of returning to the department!" ”

Li Guo also nodded: "Then let Shuangxi take the cavalry out for guerrillas, and you can set up a position at the mouth of the canyon." When the return department comes, drive them into the trap, and then press them in one fell swoop, and strive to annihilate them completely! ”

"Order!" Li Laiheng and Hao Shaoqi were overjoyed and hurriedly agreed.

"Hahaha, military advisor, you said that when we capture the head of the department, how about locking him up with Luo Cao Cao? I want to see cockfighting! Li Guo pointed to Luo Ru, who was unconscious next to him, and joked.

Everyone also laughed along, even if they didn't start fighting, everyone already thought that they would win, who called back the head of the department so unbright?

At the same time, the scout, who was born as a hunter in the Hui Division, finally discovered the intruder, but Li Guo deliberately made the scout look frightened to show them.

"Chief, we found the thief's spy, and the other party is very panicked, it seems that many people have died in infighting, our chance has come!" A hundred households in the back department said excitedly.

When Mali heard this, he also felt that he had finally waited for the opportunity, and hurriedly discussed with the mentor next to him: "Do you think we are going to kill it?" ”

The mentor frowned, he was emphasizing caution all the way, and he also saw that everyone had endured it almost, even Mali was shaken, and at this time he was afraid that it would not work if he suppressed it.

So the mentor could only say, "Okay, but the leader still needs to be careful. ”

Mali's face also became excited when he heard this, as he had always adopted a conservative policy as the patriarch, and the blow to his prestige was great.

In addition, his most beloved daughter still doesn't know life and death in the hands of thieves, plus his mother's hatred, he can't wait to kill these thieves immediately, so the time has finally come!

Mari pulled out his waist knife, raised it above his head, and shouted, "Men of the Huibu! The thieves who killed your family and robbed your grain, cattle and sheep are in front, and they will take revenge with me? God is great! ”

"Revenge! Greatest! The young people in the Hui Department also shouted excitedly.

Finally, these Hui people, who had been plagued for a winter, quickly advanced towards the canyon, and even the ancestral training of cherishing horsepower was left behind, and now they only thought about revenge!

At the mouth of the canyon, Li Laiheng also saw the smoke and dust in the distance, and sneered: "The court said that we are thieves, then these backs are probably savages, how can there be such a war?" ”

"Hahaha......" The old rogues who have been fighting for years all laughed at it.

Finally, amid the laughter of the rogues, the Hui people arrived at the canyon, and as far as they could see, there was only a small handful of rogues at the mouth of the canyon, and there were only a few dozen riders outside the canyon.

"Hahaha, the thieves have suffered serious losses, chief, let's go up!" Baihu excitedly suggested it.

At this time, if the well-informed old mentor was here, he would definitely be able to detect the abnormality, but he was already behind everyone when he rode the donkey.

When Mali thought of the lives of his people and the whereabouts of his daughter, he was no longer sensible, and shouted with angry eyes: "Revenge! ”

Immediately, all the men in the Hui Department drew their swords, and they didn't care that they ran far away, and their physical strength had not fully recovered, so they rushed directly to the mouth of the canyon!

Li Laiheng saw that the other party didn't need to bring it himself and ran to the trap, he could only shake his head, and scolded in his heart: "There is no cure!" ”

When the Hui Department rushed straight to about 50 meters outside the mouth of the canyon, the first row of men and horses suddenly fell down in unison, many people fell off their horses directly, and the people behind couldn't stop it, and the entire Hui army was huddled together.

Finally stabilized the horses, and Mali, who did not fall off the horse, buzzed in his head: "Trapped in a horse pit!" ”

When he turned around again, he found that his subordinates were all "elite" and had already turned on their backs, that is, they did not have much time to break into the army, their strength was limited, the pits were relatively shallow, and there was no such thing as bamboo, otherwise they would lose one-tenth of their troops in this wave.

Mari hurriedly shouted behind him: "Don't panic, don't squeeze, slowly get up and regroup!" ”

It's a pity that the army didn't plan to give them this opportunity, Li Laiheng's "hidden" cavalry came out from the flanks one after another, and Hao Shaoqi in the canyon didn't wait for Mali to "deliver takeaways", and came with people to raid from the front!

When Mali saw this scene, his heart was already half cold, even if they still had a numerical advantage and were fighting at home, but this year's war was a morale and a preparation.

At this time, the men and horses of the invading army began to engage in battle with the Hui Division, and I have to say that the young men of the Hui Department were quite heroic, but in the face of the bandit temperament, bravery alone was not enough.

Moreover, the cavalry of the invading army was still harvesting heads, which made the morale of the Hui Department very low, resulting in the rogue who was only half of the Hui Army's men and horses being able to press them on the front......

Mali knew that something had to be done to change the situation, but he really didn't have any good ideas, so he could only go to Hao Shaoqi, who seemed to be the leader, to fight him alone, hoping to kill Hao Shaoqi to boost morale.

It's a pity that Mali misestimated again, although Hao Shaoqi did not ride a horse or use a long weapon, but he was infinitely powerful and brave. Mali, who was one-on-one with him, was quickly defeated, and could only urge the horse to retreat.

Hao Shaoqi looked at the luxurious clothes on his body and the money to buy armor, so he naturally knew that he was not an ordinary person, so he immediately chased after him, and he was like a fly in a horse riding with a pair of fleshy feet......

Mali in the crowd couldn't give full play to the mobility of the horse, and secondly, he didn't dare to turn back to deal with Hao Shaoqi, so he could only stop and go, and soon became exhausted and was surrounded by several intruders.

Mari struggled to remove the spears of the intruders in front of him, and narrowly dodged the ring-headed broadsword of the intruders on the right, he was already covered in sweat and his body was as heavy as lead.

At this time, Mali suddenly heard a shout behind him: "Turn back, where to run?" Your head, grandpa took it! ”

When Mali heard this, he was terrified, it turned out that it was the "killing god" Hao Shaoqi who chased after him, and shouted to take his head!

Mali hurriedly pulled the reins, and struggled to dodge the attacks of a few intruders, and the girl was about to run back into the large army.

But before he could run far, he was confronted by another cavalry general, and he heard the young general shouting: "Arrest, where is the old thief!" ”

Mali met Li Laiheng, who led the cavalry to charge into battle, it turned out that he also came to grab people's heads, and the head of the head of the Hui department was so valuable for the first time.

Mali hurriedly turned his horse's head and turned to the right, trying to avoid the impact of Li Laiheng, but he never expected that several more intruders appeared on his right side and directly blocked his way.

Now Mali is Li Laiheng in front, Hao Shaoqi in the back, the cavalry on the right, and the chaotic army in the fighting on the left, almost in a desperate situation!

Mali looked up to the sky and sighed: "Alas, this is the true God who wants me to die!" Mother, Ellie, I'm sorry for you! ”

After speaking, he stopped the horse and clenched his long knife, he Mali was once the most heroic warrior in the Hui Division, even if he died, he would die with dignity!

"Even if I die in battle, I can't surrender!" Mari gritted his teeth and muttered to himself. At this time, the enemies on the front and right sides also joined in......

Suddenly, a mighty war drum sounded again, and the hearts of the people who were fighting were trembling, and many young people in the Hui Department were even stunned in place.

Mali was stunned at first, and suddenly became wise in a hurry, and shouted: "It's Daqin's iron horse!" Our reinforcements have arrived! ”

As soon as he heard this name, Li Laiheng suddenly felt a little confused, even if someone came from the Ming court, what the hell is Daqin? Will the old man be afraid that he is crazy?

Although the army did not know why, the people in the Hui Department continued to shout "reinforcements, Daqin", and for a while, the morale actually rebounded, and the unfavorable situation just now was temporarily stabilized.

The battle, which could have ended immediately, fell into a stalemate again because of this drum beat......
