Chapter 927 Ambush after the break

The sound of hurried horses' hooves roared, and with the shaking of the ground, the cavalry composed of 10,000 men and horses of all tribes galloped forward with slaughter.

Their speed was controlled at first, but after galloping for more than twenty miles, the cavalry was not ambushed, and the knights gradually became accustomed to the night road, and the speed gradually increased, and for a time the low hills on both sides of the official road immediately swept beside them, and quickly moved backwards.

The cavalry was galloping, the torch was blown backwards, and more than 10,000 cavalry were undulating on the official road like a fire dragon.

Qing will tablecloth Tai riding on a white horse, the long-term gallop made him a little crooked, he looked at the hills on both sides, it was dark, the trees on it were very terrifying, the whip was not forbidden to straighten the helmet, and then slammed the horse's belly, caught up with the galloping in front of Aobai, and said urgently: "Ah Yan, the emperor told to be vigilant, I see that the official road is winding, and the hills on both sides are easy to ambush the soldiers, are we careful, wait for Wu Sangui!" ”

Tablecloth Tai is Aobai's younger brother, and Aobai will still listen to his words.

Hearing this, he looked to both sides, although the official road was illuminated by torches, but the sides were still relatively dark, he watched the hills pass by, his heart was indeed tight, and he slowly reined in the reins of the horse, slowing down a little.

"Then wait for Wu Sangui!" Mahler snorted as he sat down, "How far have we thrown him?" ”

Table Butai glanced back, the official road was winding, and he couldn't even see the tail of the cavalry, let alone Wu Sangui.

"It's estimated to be more than ten miles!" Tablecloth Tai looked back and said.

This made Ao Bai frown, tens of thousands of Ming troops retreated, there must be someone left, this is a matter of common sense, he is indeed prone to ambush, "Send someone to urge Wu Sangui, let him hurry up, and keep a distance of five miles from me!" ”

"I'll let someone do it right away!" Tablecloth Tai immediately exchanged for a cavalryman, and with a few words, the cavalry pulled the horse's head, turned around, and galloped backwards against the ranks.

"Fei Aying, take your people first." Seeing this, Ao Bai turned his head and ordered a member of the group around him to ask for a general, and after speaking, he waved his horsewhip and shouted loudly; "Slow down, don't fall into the ambush of the Ming army!"

As soon as his voice fell, the entire cavalry team immediately slowed down, only the Qing general named Fei Aying, who led the deployment of three hundred, did not reduce his speed, and continued to gallop forward.

These three hundred cavalry soon roared and distanced themselves from the main force.

On a relatively high hill in the distance, Li Dingguo and Wang Deren stood together, and they looked down from the top of the mountain, and the Jin army in the distance was like a silver snake walking through the hills.

"Commander Wang, the Jin army seems to be separated!" Li Dingguo pressed the handle of the knife with one hand and pointed to the bottom of the mountain with the other.

Wang Deren took a closer look, and sure enough, he saw that the fire snake seemed to have separated a small snake and continued to swim forward, while the speed of the big snake behind slowed down.

"It seems that the Jin army is very vigilant, so send the striker first, and the main force should be waiting for the men and horses behind!" Wang Deren frowned, "It's difficult for the Jin Army to enter the urn like this!" ”

The organized retreat of tens of thousands of Ming troops must go first and then go, some in the center, and some in the back, it is impossible to retreat completely, and the total withdrawal is not called retreat, it is called a rout, and even if it is a rout, sometimes it is necessary to arrange for one person to break the back.

It is common sense for the Jin army to be vigilant, but as soon as he slows down and closes the distance with the troops behind him, it is difficult for the Ming army to ambush.

Li Dingguo stared at the split tongue of fire, turned his gaze for a moment, and then said: "Commander Wang, we should change our plan, we must attract the Jin army to enter the ambush circle as soon as possible, and then inflict heavy damage, if it drags on for a long time, I am afraid that we will not be able to get out of the battlefield smoothly and withdraw to the south bank!" “

The Ming army retreated on the whole line, and the Ming army responsible for the broken back naturally could not stay for a long time, if it was entangled and the retreat was not timely, I am afraid that it would be left on the north bank.

When Wang Deren heard this, he raised his eyebrows, "Commander Li, what can you do?" ”

In terms of official positions and titles, Wang Deren surpassed Li Dingguo, so after this break, Wang Deren was the main and Li Dingguo was the auxiliary.

"Commander Wang continued to lie in wait on the mountain, leading the troops to ambush the Jin army's forward, the main force of the Jin army will rush to rescue when he hears the sound, and then he will be defeated in the lower wind, and the main force of the Jin army will not suspect that there are still people and horses on the mountain, and he will definitely chase and kill him with all his might, so that he will be able to bring all the Jin army into the ambush circle." Li Dingguo clenched the hilt of his knife and pointed at the Jin Army's forward, who had already pulled some distance from the main force.

Wang Deren looked at the main force of the Jin Army, which was getting slower and slower, groaned for a while, and finally bowed slightly, "Feasible!" ”

The Qing general Fei Aying led three hundred cavalry, and the speed did not decrease, and soon opened a distance from the main force.

When the Ming army looked at it from the mountain, it seemed that the two fire snakes were not far apart, but the fact was that after a while, they opened more than two miles.

The three hundred gold troops galloped south along the official road, constantly looking at the situation on both sides, although they could not see very clearly, they could only see the vague outline of the hills, but they could tell that the mountains on both sides were not steep, and the road that the army was about to pass by was between these low hills.

Along the way, the situation on both sides was almost like this, and Fei Aying did not stop to observe. This is mainly because the sky is like this, they just stopped, and they couldn't see clearly, so they took the simplest method, that is, they didn't advance a mile or so, stopped, and shot dozens of places on both sides where there might be ambushes.

At this time, more than ten arrows were shot on both sides, and they didn't know where they landed in the dark, and the arrows quickly shot into the woods, and one arrow hit the trunk of the tree, and the black shadow hiding behind immediately shrank its head.

Seeing that there was no reaction, Fei Aying waved his hand as usual, "Keep going!" ”

The cavalry then galloped, slowly raising its speed again, and on the official road, the horses' hooves were loud for a while, but in the dark hills on both sides, there was not a sound, not even the chirping of wild animals.

However, at this moment, suddenly a trumpet sounded, the running cavalry was startled, tightened the reins, the war horse neighed and hung in the air with its front hooves, and then fell heavily, the whole team neighed abruptly, and the Jin army looked around in fright, only to see the sudden torches on the hills on both sides.

"Not good! Withdraw it! Fei Aying grabbed the reins, stabilized the frightened warhorse, and immediately shouted.

At this moment, the whistling sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air struck like a violent wind, and two dense arrows formed a large net and were falling rapidly. Arrows pierced through their armor, pierced their armors, and struck their corpses, and the heart-rending pain turned into a terrible wail that rose to the sky.

Aobai, who was left behind, rode slowly, and suddenly heard a faint sound in front, not angry but happy, "Quick, speed up immediately, the forward has been ambushed!" ”
