Chapter 303: The grass ambushes are like a slaughterhouse

Before he could finish speaking, he pulled out his waist knife, and in a flash of the knife, it slashed through Balshan's neck, and with a single knife, Balshan's head was cut off, and the headless body was still arched on the horse's back, and it shook a few times before it was planted.

He didn't return the knife into the sheath, and rubbed it directly on the saddle twice, which was considered to have wiped off the bloodstains, and he roared to the left and right: "If anyone disobeys the order, Balshan will be the end!" Order, the whole army deployed, outflank the two wings, and the central cavalry will follow me to assault and level the enemy formation! ”

In the dense forest, Lu Xun sighed: "You can't attack because of frustration, it's difficult to be a famous general after all." ”

Sun En hooked the corners of his mouth: "But after all, he is ten times the strength of Liu Yu, and now he is outflanking the soldiers and horses on both wings, so that he can give full play to his own numerical advantage to the greatest extent, this is the right way." ”

Xu Daofu said with a smile: "That's it, it should have been fought like this a long time ago, I think Liu Yu is playing tricks, his hoplites can't outrun the cavalry, so he can only fight here." Where are the reinforcements? ”

Lu Xun sighed: "Senior Brother Xu, we have been to Liu Yu's camp, didn't he have a chariot and didn't refuse a horse?" Even a recruit knows that dealing with cavalry depends on these, if Liu Yu is not completely sure, will he not bring these? ”

Xu Daofu suddenly opened his mouth and was speechless. Sun En's brows furrowed: "Yes, I've been wondering about this question all the time, could it be that Liu Yu deliberately showed weakness and lured the enemy to attack?" ”

Lu Xun nodded: "From beginning to end, Liu Yu has always been guarding between this long grass area and the plain, even if he attacks on the plain, he will stop at a shallow level, and quickly withdraw, if it is like this once, it may be that the bow and arrow are insufficient, but two or three times in a row are such routines, then there is only one explanation, that is, to lure the enemy to attack, and it is not this kind of impact of one or two thousand people at a time, but the whole army dispatches a full-line attack!" ”

Sun Enzheng said: "So, Liu Yu's ambush soldiers are in this bush?" ”

Lu Xun sighed: "It should be, a large number of cavalry cannot be ambushed in the grass, but the light infantry can play, the cavalry cannot see the enemy in the grass area, and cannot give full play to the speed advantage, if there is a light infantry here, it can take advantage of this terrain and inflict heavy losses on the cavalry." ”

Sun En's face changed, and he looked at the six or seven thousand flank cavalry in the grass on both wings, and said, "There are six or seven thousand cavalry, can you really eat it?" ”

Lu Xun's expression was solemn: "The cavalry that can't rush up, or the light cavalry like the Hun cavalry, when encountering an ambush, I'm afraid that it won't take 3,000 people to wipe it out." Moreover, the banner of difficulty is attacking Liu Yu's front, and he has no mind and energy to command the outflanking troops on both flanks, so he doesn't care if he scatters it, if he encounters an ambush, he is afraid that he will not even have time to react! ”

Before his words fell, he only heard an arrow across the sky, and Lu Xun's face changed: "Look, the ambush is about to start!" ”

I saw that the thousands of Qin cavalry who had all rushed into the grass area, suddenly there were countless people in thatched camouflage around them, these people wore grass rings on their heads, and held special long lances and machetes in their hands, different from ordinary long lances, these lances were not more than four meters long, but more than one meter, which was equivalent to ordinary spears, but behind the three-edged lance head, there were two small branches, bending inward, and the inside was a sharp blade.

As soon as these ambushes were launched, they rushed towards the Qin cavalry huddled in the grass, and the cavalry of the Qin army drew their weapons one after another, wanting to fight them, but these infantry did not stab the cavalry on the horse at all, but stretched out these short lances with small hooks and stabbed directly into the legs of the war horses.

Only the mournful neighing of the war horses was heard, and the knights on the horses, who could still be seen in the long grass that were mostly half a man high, suddenly disappeared without a trace, and almost disappeared into the grass in rows.

Sun En was dumbfounded, he had never seen such a battle, and his voice was a little abnormal: "This, what's going on?" Liu Yu, Liu Yu, does he have a demon law? Those cavalry of the Qin army, why, why are they gone?! ”

Xu Daobi gritted his teeth, his eyes have always been the best among the three brothers: "Senior brother, I can see clearly, these ambush soldiers are not ordinary weapons in their hands, it seems that they are specially made to deal with cavalry." It is not like a lance, because there is a barb, they do not stab people, but to hook the horse's legs, as long as the horse's legs are hooked on these blades, they are cut off, and the cavalry on the horse naturally falls. ”

Lu Xun's brows furrowed, and he pointed to a tall and burly figure in the grass: "How could it be him?" Liu Jingxuan?! ”

Sun En and the others looked over, only to see Liu Jingxuan, who was nearly nine feet tall, holding a hundred refining iron knives that were open on both sides, jumping around in the grass, almost every time he jumped anywhere, there was a scream, accompanied by a burst of bloody arrows, you don't need to look to know that this must be a cavalryman who fell from his horse and fell to the ground, and he rushed to his side to kill him, and the rider who fell off the horse was difficult to even get up on the ground, how could he still stop these light and sharp warriors? In the blink of an eye, Liu Jingxuan took the ambush soldiers in the grass and slashed and killed more than half of the more than 3,000 Qin cavalry who went around to the left, and the remaining more than 1,000 cavalry saw that the situation was not good, and they rushed left and right desperately, trying to escape from this grassland.

But as soon as they returned to their horses and rushed to the right, it was the only area where there were no ambushes, and it was also the only way for these panicked Qin cavalry to escape, and they didn't run much pace, only to hear a loud bang, and the whole earth seemed to have sunk down, there were six or seven hundred horsemen, just like that day's subordinates, even people and horses fell into a huge horse trap, within a radius of 100 steps, the smoke and dust were filled, with a strong smell of blood, the scene was like Shura hell, miserable.

The ambush infantry of the Jin army, shouted and rushed to the edge of this trap, they picked up the bows and arrows on their backs, and faced the trap, the enemy cavalry who were screaming and wailing on their backs, was a random arrow to fire, and then, the sergeants on the edge of the pit threw the straw bales and sandbags filled with soil that had been prepared long ago into the pit, which was like a pit killing, and in just a moment's effort, thousands of sandbags were thrown into this big pit, and soon, even the sound of those screams and wails could not be heard.

The mouth of the martyr could not be closed, and the outflanking troops on the left flank, more than 3,000 horsemen, were wiped out in less than a quarter of an hour, and there were not even a few people who escaped, which made him so shocked that he forgot to command, and suddenly, he realized the danger and shouted: "Give the order to the right army quickly, let them withdraw!" ”
