Chapter 224: Ambush the Striker
The captain led his men into the dense forest, but the dense forest was not conducive to the cavalry.
chased a few hundred meters, but the other party ran farther.
Helplessly, the captain had to retreat.
When he returned to the road and saw the corpses all over the ground, the anger of the captain suddenly came out.
After some counting, they lost a total of more than 700 people.
In fact, there were not many Wuhuan cavalrymen who fell into the trap and died, just more than 100 people.
However, this caused their formation to be chaotic, and then they were killed and injured by a large number of archers led by Zhao Yun.
You know, in just a moment, the archers kept attacking, shooting a total of more than a dozen rounds of arrows.
If you weren't afraid of retreating too late and didn't attack closely, you might have killed more enemies.
"These gutsless rats, I'm going to tear you apart, tear you apart." The captain was furious.
"Kill, kill me to Xiangping, I will slaughter the city." Enraged, the captain shouted with his scimitar held high.
This time he was really angry, one moment he fantasized about attacking Xiangping City before their leader arrived, and then looting first, and he could show his skills in front of the leader, but who would have thought that the next moment he would be attacked and suffer great losses.
Wuhuan has a small population, and the loss of more than 700 people at once is also a great loss.
It can be said that they didn't lose so many people in a city before, but now they have lost so much here, the key is to let the other party run.
The captain continued to move south with the rest of the cavalry, and the corpses all over the ground were not even taken care of.
He was so proud that he didn't even send someone to inform their chief.
He didn't want their leaders to know that he was incompetent, and even removed him as a pioneer.
You must know that after he breaks through Xiangping City, the leader will not be held accountable at that time.
Zhao Yun led the people to run for a long time, and only stopped after confirming that the Wuhuan cavalry was not chasing.
"Huh~" Zhao Yun exhaled a long breath and said: "This time we will definitely be able to provoke the Wuhuan people, as long as they accelerate southward, we will have a chance." ”
Zhao Yun let people rest for half an hour, and then continued to hurry.
At a meeting point, scouts confirmed that the Wuhuan cavalry had accelerated southward.
"Okay, let's go to help."
After completing the mission of angering the enemy, Zhao Yun led the people to continue on the road.
Captain Wan led the rest of the men and horses to attack quickly, wanting to break through Xiangping as soon as possible.
A day passed, and Zhang Yu and the others were all ready. But he still had some apprehension in his heart.
Although I prepared in advance this time, the time was still too short.
Finally, Zhang Yu got the news that Zhao Yun had succeeded.
"All ready, the Wuhuan people will arrive in more than an hour." Zhao Yun sent someone to inform Zhang Yu from the path, which was more than an hour earlier than the Wuhuan people.
But that's enough, Zhang Yu and they are ready.
Thousands of men and horses lay in ambush on each side.
The trap has also been set up, just waiting for the Wuhuan people to arrive.
All the way south, these Wuhuan people were more cautious at first, but at this time they no longer cared about it.
The captain sent three hundred men in front, and if there was a trip or a pit, they could find it in advance, and they didn't care about the rest.
This place is already very close to Xiangping City, so I have relaxed my vigilance.
They move forward at speed.
Captain Wan's heart is also hot, and it is always a miracle to break through Xiangping City.
"Kill."
The Wuhuan men shouted, then raised their sabers and brandished them.
The Zhang Yu Legion hiding in the jungle could clearly see the arrogance of the Wuhuan people.
"One hundred and fifty meters."
"One hundred meters."
"Fifty meters."
Zhang Yu kept looking at the Wuhuan people, watching them approach the place where he was ambushed.
"Archer, fire."
Without waiting for these Wuhuan people to enter the trap, Zhang Yu ordered an attack.
He didn't want the hundreds of strikers of the Wuhuan people to destroy the traps ahead, which were reserved for the Wuhuan army.
As soon as Zhang Yu gave the order, the archers on both sides attacked frantically.
In the blink of an eye, three rounds of arrow rain fell obliquely, and the Wuhuan people were suddenly in chaos.
Wuhuan people and horses are concentrated, and the archers on this road are very good at attacking, and you can tilt the arrow rain to a crowded place.
"Fight back, quick, fight back." Captain Wan shouted in a hurry and hurriedly ordered a counterattack.
The Wuhuan people hurriedly counterattacked, and arrows also began to fly out, attacking and killing Zhang Yu and them.
"Concentrate the archers, attack where there are many of them, and don't let them organize, otherwise we will not be the opponent in the shooting." Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Yu's side concentrated on shooting, while Huang Zhong organized the archers to attack freely.
After a few rounds of arrow raindown, hundreds of Wuhuan people died.
Wanfu grew up to be anxious, and more than 2,000 people have been killed and wounded in this battle so far.
Their invincible bow and arrow were suppressed, and Zhang Yu concentrated their strength and hit them fiercely.
"Rush over." Manfu screamed, trying to get closer, and then attacked with a saber.
"Look for death." Zhang Yu saw that the Wuhuan people began to charge, and his face became a little hideous.
"It's not good, it's a pit."
"Ahh
"There are traps."
What horses are most afraid of is getting stuck in a pit and stumbling on a horse rope, how can Zhang Yu not be prepared.
"A thousand men continued to attack with bows and arrows, and the rest changed their weapons." Zhang Yu shouted again.
At the sound of the order, the soldier threw his bow and arrow directly on the ground, and then picked up his shield, broadsword, spear and other weapons.
After changing clothes in two seconds, Zhang Yu stared coldly at the bottom and shouted, "Kill me." ”
Except for the archers, who were still attacking, the soldiers all rushed out with Zhang Yu.
On the other side, Huang Zhong also rushed out.
"Kill."
A group of soldiers rushed out from both sides and fought into the enemy line.
Zhang Yu took the lead, jumped into the enemy, and slashed wildly.
The overlord halberd picked it up, and easily said that a Wuhuan person picked off the horse.
At this time, the Wuhuan people were still in chaos and did not form a joint force.
"Let me disrupt the enemy's ranks." Zhang Yu shouted.
He saw Huang Zhong killed, and the enemy showed signs of gathering.
You can't let the enemy gather, otherwise the enemy's combat power will increase, and it will be even more difficult to fight when the time comes.
So Zhang Yu led people to shuttle through the enemy crowd, not seeking to kill many enemies, as long as the enemies could not be gathered.
On the other side, Huang Zhong concentrated his forces and slaughtered the enemy.
After killing for a while, a large number of enemies fell under the horses.
At this time, Zhang Yu was already covered in blood, but he didn't realize it, and still rushed to kill the enemy.
"Rush out, rush out."
The captain of Wuhuan was afraid.
He tried his best to command the army, but he was unable to gather, and was divided into several pieces by Zhang Yu and them.
In addition, the previous 2,000 archers also gave up their bows and arrows and killed them from the flanks and rear.
The situation is urgent.
As a last resort, he had no choice but to flee.
The back road was blocked, and they had to go forward.
"Don't stop them, cut them off." Seeing that the Wuhuan people were about to escape, Zhang Yu ordered and said.
Blocking in front will be met with full resistance from the enemy, and there will definitely be great losses at that time, and cutting off part of them and completely destroying them is the best choice.
