Chapter 209 Fooled?
The weather in the prairie is subject to change, and it is cloudless until dark, but as soon as it gets dark, the sky becomes cloudy.
Dense dark clouds blocked the moonlight, and the wind blew on people's faces like knives, and such weather conditions were not suitable for battle.
But now there are nearly 100,000 troops, chasing after an army, and these 100,000 people are the Xianbei alliance of Kuitou and Gu Hun.
The people they were chasing were Zhao Yun under Liu Yuan and the cavalry under Liu Yuan.
After dark, Kui Tou and the others were horrified to find that they had lost the trace of Liu Yuanjun.
Most of the scouts they sent out before were killed by the Han army, and those who escaped by luck were also driven away by the Han army.
However, the leader and the others have not stopped sending scouts, one is to grasp the movements of Liu Yuanjun's army in time, and the other is to confuse Liu Yuan's judgment.
After all, such a large-scale Han army has been marching on the prairie for nearly half a month, and it is too abnormal if there are no Xianbei people noticing.
In order not to make Liu Yuan and them suspicious, even if they knew that they had sent scouts and had no return, the leader and the others still insisted.
However, he still ordered that his scouts follow Liu Yuan from a distance, and don't get too close to Liu Yuanjun because of greed!
It was this order that made their scouts, in the case of sudden weather changes, lose the trace of Liu Yuanjun, and the leader was furious for this!
Then he scattered all his scouts, but fortunately, an hour later, they bit Liu Yuanjun's tail.
Although he didn't see Liu Yuan in person, he saw the general under Liu Yuan, which made him even more convinced that Liu Yuan and the others were not far ahead.
When the other party found them, he was extremely surprised, as if he didn't expect that he and the others had been following them all along.
The performance of the other general's leader made the leader convinced of his plan, and he knew that this army was most likely the force left by Liu Yuan.
At this time, there is no need for them to hide their whereabouts, all they need is to solve the army in front of them as soon as possible, and then chase and kill the main force of Liu Yuanjun!
Although the other party tried his best to deal with them, due to the large difference in the number of people between the two sides, and the other party seemed to have problems with physical strength.
Only half an hour later, the other party had to choose to withdraw from the battle, and the leader ordered someone to bite the other party's tail.
In this way, between the two sides chasing and fleeing, they had already run out for nearly ten miles, and now there was an earth-shattering shout of killing in the ears of the head.
Listening to the voice, you can know that Liu Yuan must have fought with Gongsun Zhan, they are definitely in a mess now, and this is a good time to attack.
The leader's eyes flashed like a wolf's light, and then he ordered his troops to speed up the pursuit, and soon the Xianbei people's pursuit speed reached its peak.
At the same time, Gongsun Zhan was also constantly urging his subordinates to advance, and an hour ago, they finally waited for Liu Yuan's remnants.
The reason why they are called remnants of the army is because Liu Yuan went deep into the prairie to chase down the leader this time, and brought in a full 130,000 horses.
But now what appeared in front of Gongsun Zhan's eyes was less than 20,000 cavalry, and these cavalry soldiers all looked like they were wearing crooked armor.
Gongsun Zan knew that this was definitely related to the fact that he had cut off Liu Yuan's grain route, and when Liu Yuan and the others entered the prairie before, they didn't carry much grain and grass.
To be able to support 20,000 people from the prairie, Gongsun Zhan already felt that it was extremely difficult, if Liu Yuan took more than 100,000 people, he might turn around and flee!
But at this time, it was time to avenge the previous arrow, how could Gongsun Chan let go of such a good opportunity.
As soon as the opponent entered the ambush circle, he ordered someone to attack.
The leader of the opposing team was none other than the red-faced general who had killed Yan Gang before, and when he found that he and the others suddenly appeared on the path of their retreat, his eyes erupted with angry flames.
This red-faced general also wanted to use his own martial arts to kill himself in exchange for their glimmer of life, but he didn't expect that his physical strength would have problems.
Under the siege of several of his own sons and nephews, he chose to flee in embarrassment, and shouted loudly as he fled, telling his subordinates to temporarily retreat first and go back to join Liu Yuan's troops.
Only then did Gongsun Zan know that Liu Yuan was not among the 20,000 cavalry, and he should have followed behind with the only remaining foot soldiers under his command.
But his only hope is that the 20,000 cavalry have been beaten back by himself, and the few foot soldiers he has left will not be able to do anything at all!
Thinking of this, Gongsun Zhan immediately ordered his subordinates to charge, and tonight they must kill Liu Yuan, the horseman, on the prairie!
The most ruthless pursuit was Liu Bei and his two generals Yan and Wen, Liu Bei had been waiting for this opportunity until his hair was almost gray, and now this opportunity finally appeared.
With Yan, Wen Er will become the vanguard of Gongsun Zhan's pursuit troops, and he has been tightly attached to the tail of the red-faced general's team.
looked like he was vowing to kill the other party, and Gongsun Zhan was also the first time he had seen Liu Bei's appearance, but he was very satisfied with Liu Bei's performance.
In this way they pursued each other for a quarter of an hour, and just as they were about to catch up with each other, suddenly there was a deafening sound of horses' hooves opposite them.
Liu Bei and his subordinates Yan and Wen Er were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes shot a terrifying light.
They unexpectedly saw the cavalry army on the opposite side of them, and the leader of the other party was the general named Zhao Yun under Liu Yuan.
After a rough estimate, the cavalry behind Zhao Yun was at least more than 100,000 people, and as soon as such a large cavalry team appeared, Gongsun Chan and his men were completely stunned!
At the same time, the red-faced general, who had been hunted down by them before, also brought people to a beautiful maneuver and killed them together with the general surnamed Zhao.
At this time, Liu Bei was shocked to find that he seemed to have become the other party's first target, and he knew that with his skills, he was definitely not the opponent of the other party.
If this continues, he will definitely be the first to become the other party's sword ghost, the cunning Liu Bei hurriedly took Yan, and Wen Er rushed out towards the oblique stab.
After only a few breaths, Liu Bei let out a sigh of relief, and he luckily forced away the blade of the opposing general.
Although he didn't completely escape the opponent's attack range, his danger was much less at this time!
But because of his fleeing behavior, the other party easily tore through Gongsun Zhan's defense line, and then a full 30,000 cavalry roared away from this opening!
At this time, Liu Bei's Gongsun Zan didn't have a chance to care about those tens of thousands of people, because they were about to face the fierce attack of nearly 100,000 people again!
