Chapter 122: Ambush on all sides

The other tribal leaders also heard the screams of slaughter echoing through the valley in the distance.

Now that even the king of Donghu is going to turn around and retreat, it is even more impossible for them to be stupid enough to rush forward again.

One less raid is nothing, but if the tribe's elite are all killed, that is the biggest loss, and it is only a matter of time before it is swallowed up by other tribes!

Without hesitation, he shouted: "Withdraw, withdraw!" ”

Suddenly, there was confusion in the long cavalry procession.

Those who immediately turned their horses' heads collided with those who had not had time to turn their horses' heads, and the chaotic form seriously affected the efficiency of the retreat.

Especially the team of the front army, when they were about to rush out of the valley, and then the moonlight saw the tragic battle at the mouth of the valley, and the appearance of the thousand horsemen fleeing in embarrassment, and his heart immediately tightened.

When the order to retreat came, he was even more panicked, and hurriedly turned his horse's head to retreat, but collided with the team behind.

Rumble!

At this moment, there was an earth-shattering noise at both ends of the valley, and the valley shook and the boulders fell down!

Suddenly, there was a burst of screams from the front.

A boulder bigger than a carriage fell, and it was simply injured if you rubbed it, and you died if you touched it!

Even if you are lucky not to be hit by a boulder, you will be hit by the flying debris and your head will be broken and bleeding!

Some of the cavalry who rushed to the front did not have time to retreat, but were hit by the crushed rocks and buried under the rubble.

And the cavalry of the team behind the cushion had calm faces after hearing the order.

After all, even if there is an ambush, it is the most dangerous in the front, and the rear army can easily change into the front army and escape as soon as possible!

Unexpectedly, when the horse's head was turned and was about to withdraw, a deafening loud noise was heard, as if the whole valley was about to collapse.

There was a howl from the debris splash, and the team was in chaos.

When the dust cleared, I saw that the back road had been blocked by a huge stone pile three feet high!

On the ground, there was a wail!

The three-zhang high stone mound is like a wall in front of you, and if you climb it with your bare hands, you can climb it with some effort, but the horses can't take it away.

In the vast grassland, if there are no horses, it is tantamount to suicide.

Even the most mighty warriors on the steppe do not cross the vast prairie on foot.

Even if you don't get hungry and thirsty, you will be torn apart by wolves!

In the panic, someone turned his horse's head and rushed towards the other end of the valley, wanting to leave the valley with the horse from the side next to Qin, and then venture back to the tribe!

Suddenly, those in the back rushed forward, and those in front ran backwards, and the scene became more and more chaotic.

Fusu stood on the cliff, squinting at the clusters of torches moving in the valley below, and the corners of his lips curled.

Under this violent explosion, the horses must have been frightened, scurrying like headless flies, and many frightened horses rose up and kicked the cavalry next to them with one hoof!

In addition, the Donghu people knew that they had been ambushed, and the army must be unstable, and the collapse and chaos of the team had become inevitable!

Li Jing stood aside, pondered for a moment and said: "These alien races have become turtles in the urn, if the prince wants to persuade him to surrender, the minister can arrange it." ”

"There's no need, for these aliens, a big fist is the truth! Only when they are frightened will they be obedient! Fusu shook his head, his voice was cold!

"No!"

Li Jing's face was straight, and he immediately bowed down to receive the order.

Turning around and walking to the edge of the cliff, he ordered in a deep voice: "Release the arrows and fire a salvo!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the herald standing on the hillside lit his torches, held them high in the air and waved them.

Suddenly, the officers who had been paying attention to the top of the hillside shouted in unison.

"A salvo, shoot arrows!"

Woohoo!

Suddenly, a sergeant with a light bow appeared from the steep cliff, and arrows rained down on the torches below.

In a condescending situation, the archers who lay in ambush above the valley could easily shoot the cavalry below with a light bow.

Suddenly, under the dense rain of arrows, the valley screamed again and again.

King Donghu looked at the rain of arrows and was stunned.

Fortunately, the guards next to him immediately took off the wooden shield and blocked it above, so that the king of the Donghu people was not pierced into a hedgehog under the volley!

Ding Ding Ding!

In a stone recess not far from King Donghu, a cauldron was upside down, and countless arrows shot at the cauldron with a crisp sound.

Gou Li lay motionless under the cauldron, there was a crisp sound in his ears, his heart was extremely nervous, and he was secretly grateful.

This cauldron was handed over by the overseer when it came out.

It is said that Gongzi himself ordered people to cast it in steel in the smelter, which is thicker than the armor of heavy cavalry!

When I carried this pot before, I was laughed at by the Hu people.

Carrying a cauldron that can turn an adult upside down in the vast grassland doesn't add to the burden of a long journey!

But at this moment, the role of the cauldron is revealed.

After hearing the loud noise, Gou Li clearly knew what would happen below, and hurriedly picked up the cauldron on the carriage from the chaos, found a depression in the rocks and hid, and the cauldron was directly buckled on it.

Although the rain of arrows was dense, it fell on the cauldron made of stainless steel, and only wiped off a layer of black ash from it.

At the mouth of the valley near the two ends, countless panicked Hu people threw away their horses in a panic and desperately climbed on the gravel pile, trying to escape!

Shout!

With a roar, a climbing Hu man screamed and fell.

However, there are too many people blocking the exit, and after all, some of them are still afraid to go out.

I originally thought that I would be able to escape by climbing out of the blocked valley, but I didn't expect that outside the valley mouth on both sides, there were already hundreds of Qin soldiers lined up, holding crossbow arrows in their hands!

"Shoot the arrows!"

As the officer shouted, countless arrows shot out of the repeater.

"Ahh

"There's an ambush!"

In the blink of an eye, the Hu man who had climbed over the stone pile was pierced through his body by a sharp arrow and rolled down from the high stone pile.

Seeing this, the people behind hurriedly retracted their heads, not daring to raise their heads again.

After several screams in quick succession, the people who climbed the rocks hurriedly grabbed their heads and fled into the valley.

There are arrows falling from the sky everywhere, and if you stand in a conspicuous place, you can easily become a target, and you can't even dodge with several arrows at the same time!

If you run back into the chaotic crowd, at least there will be someone standing in the way, and if you're lucky, you might even be able to pick one up!

The archers on both sides of the cliff stopped after quickly shooting out the twenty arrows in the quiver, and skillfully replaced one from their side and hung it on their backs.

As soon as the order is given, a second salvo will be fired immediately!

However, it is obviously too much abuse.

After a condescending volley, the Hu people suffered heavy casualties, and the ground was impenetrable and the wounded were constantly wailing.

And those who were not hit by the arrow were also frightened under a volley, and they didn't even have the courage to take off the bow and arrow on their backs to fight back!

Fusu looked at the frightened Hu people below, and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, the effect is good!" ”
