A cool breeze came out, rolling up the fallen blades of grass, and there was a whirring roar in the air, like a fierce beast hiding in the grass, taking advantage of the night to come out to feed, and let out a threatening roar.
In the dark night, the Yan army moved forward quickly.
Since learning that the cavalry outside the Saiwai had mastered the whereabouts of the Yan army, the army once again changed its offensive and defensive deployment, and was ready to fight at any time.
In the front army, Lin Shi led five thousand blade soldiers, chopping horses and swords out of the sheath, holding crossbows, each with a vigilant expression, eagle eyes like eyes, staring at all parts of the dark grassland, opening the way for the army in front.
Beware of sudden encounters with cavalry outside the Saiwai, or cavalry outside the Saiwai setting up an ambush in the marching road, when the Yan army is unprepared, it is caught off guard by the other party's desire to fight.
In the rear army, Lin Hu led 10,000 blade soldiers, both with knives out of the sheath, with crossbows, vigilant rear, to protect the army to move forward safely, in case of whereabouts leaked, encountered by the tribal coalition army.
In addition, half of the 10,000 people had to set traps along the way of the Yan army's march, scattering thistles, trapping horse pits, and stumbling horses.
In front of the tripwire, a number of sharpened sticks were planted in the dense grass, and if a pursuing cavalry encountered a tripping rope and swooped down into the air and fell into the sharp sticks, it would inevitably cause casualties.
With many experiences in fighting with the Donghu cavalry, Hou Mingfeng knew what the nemesis of the cavalry outside the Saiwai was and how to destroy the enemy without a fight.
Therefore, Hou Mingfeng led his troops into the grassland and threw a word to the soldiers of the whole army, effectively annihilating the living forces of the various tribes in the grassland, and not letting go of any opportunity.
According to his explanation, the personnel of the various tribes of the grassland are scarce, and the number of cavalry will naturally not be large, and constantly weakening the number of opponents' participants will weaken the overall strength of the tribes of the grassland in disguise.
At this moment, the whereabouts of the army are detected, and the tribal alliance will definitely follow up, and before reaching Yunxia Mountain safely, they must not collide with it, only set various traps along the way.
The place where the Yan army crossed the border became a deadly bloody road!
Yunxia Mountain is in sight, the Yan army is starry and night, there is no intention of stopping to rest, before midnight, arriving at Yunxia Mountain, the army can relax.
At this time, Lin Hu, who was guarding behind the troops, suddenly noticed a hazy light in the distance, even if the two sides were more than ten miles apart, in the open grassland, it was still very clear, looking at it from afar, the other party was connected together, like a starlight floating under the night sky.
"These bastards, they're catching up so quickly!" Lin Hu shouted and scolded, and ordered the blade warriors to continue to set the trap while riding their horses towards the front army.
At this moment, the cavalry from outside the Saiwai is pursuing, which is not a good thing for the Yan army, at least, it is not a good thing for Lin Hu, otherwise the opponent's army will rush up, and the ironclad infantry will lose a lot of people in vain.
Hou Mingfeng and Zhao Hongru, who led the team in front, also noticed the bright light in the distance, and the two were surprised, the other party's marching speed did not seem to be slow, and it was very likely that the main army was nearby.
Lin Hu caught up and said depressedly: "General Hou, General Zhao, the cavalry outside the Saiwai is chasing up, what should I do." If you don't need to hold on to Yunxia Mountain, you really want to quickly set up an ambush and start a war with the other party! ”
The night is dark and the wind is high, the green grass is lush, set up an ambush on the spot, there is no support, still use the cover of the night, form an effective ambush circle, but unfortunately the sky does not fulfill people's wishes, and must arrive at Yunxia Mountain.
"This place is more than ten miles away from Yunxia Mountain, walk quickly, at most spend half an hour, pay close attention to the other party for the time being, if you arrive at Yunxia Mountain, the other party still insists on following, let's fight happily." Zhao Hongru comforted.
Zhao Hongru is also belligerent, and has a good opportunity to destroy the enemy, so he will definitely not take the initiative to let it go, but he does not dare to act easily at the moment.
After all, at present, they don't know the troops following behind at all, and if they act rashly, it may be thankless, and they will delay the time to go to Yunxia Mountain.
If the opponent's front army is just a bait, in the same way as to contain them and start a war with them, the emperor's precise deployment may be completely aborted, and the hardships paid by the legion for several days will also be in vain.
However, Hou Mingfeng waved his hand, and the thief smiled: "Lao Zhao, Lin Hu, you can't miss the opportunity, you won't come back if you lose it, dare you stay and fight with the other party once." ”
Nine days after leaving Zhenyuan Pass, the army was all on the way, and there was no cavalry outside the Saiwai, today, when he noticed that there was a trailing team behind him, Hou Mingfeng felt a little itchy in his heart, and wanted to kill him.
"Old Hou, you can't be rash, at present, we only know that there are follow-up troops behind, but we have no way of knowing who is leading the troops, how many troops there are, rash action, it is easy to suffer, we are about to go to Yunxia Mountain, we must not fall short." Zhao Hongru comforted.
Looking up at the haunting troops in the distance, Hou Mingfeng looked regretful, and said helplessly: "Continue to move forward for the time being, there is always a chance to clean them up!" Lin Hu continued to deploy traps along the way, stumbling on horses, and teaching the other party a lesson without fighting. ”
"General rest assured!" Lin Hu quickly rode away and returned to the rear army.
Borchi gave Zha Suhe an order to keep a close eye on the movements of the Yan army, and when the time was ripe, the two armies jointly defeated the Yan army.
Since catching up with the Yan army not long ago, according to Borchi's order, Zha Suhe followed closely behind the Yan army, and did not dare to act rashly, but he deliberately sent his corporal to light torches to warn the Yan army that their whereabouts were completely exposed, causing coercion to the Yan army.
Encountering the Yan army today, even if there is no order from Borchi, he will not easily start a war with the Yan army, how can he not know the combat effectiveness of the other party.
Since the battle with the Yan army, Bolchi lost his sweat position, lost the tribal people, grain and grass, and even the most elite death row troops under his command were annihilated by most of the Yan army.
What shocked him the most was the battle of Xishan, where more than 200,000 troops under the command of Borchi were chased and beaten by several legions of the Yan army, and after everyone fled from the pursuit of the Yan army, there were only more than 70,000 people left.
He personally participated in this battle, and if he hadn't acted quickly, he might have died on the battlefield.
After escaping from death, he realized that the Yan army was no longer weak, on the contrary, it was gradually becoming stronger, and it was not necessary to chase wolves and tigers.
Therefore, he is also jealous of the Yan army in his heart, and if he is not completely sure, he will definitely not easily start a war with the Yan army.
At this moment, the Yan army noticed their whereabouts, and did not turn around and kill them directly as before, but accelerated the pace of the march, Zha Suhe breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also suspicious, and did not know what the Yan army wanted.
Continue to the northwest direction, will reach Yunxia Mountain, is the Yan army ready to cross Yunxia Mountain, towards the direction of the Woma Plain? In doing so, Yan Jun will only waste time and energy in vain, and get twice the result with half the effort.
According to Yan Jun's shrewdness, he will definitely not do this for no reason!
Zasuhe is a fierce general under Borchi, and he can only be called a fierce general, without the cunning of the lunar calendar, and without the shrewdness of Borchi, so he can't guess what the Yan army's intentions are.
had no choice but to continue to chase, hoping to shorten the distance between him and the Yan army, so as to thoroughly find out the Yan army's intentions.
In the gallop, 100,000 cavalry galloped wildly, producing a daunting scene, especially many cavalrymen holding torches in their hands, and the cavalry galloped, shining fire moved in the dark night, as if the sea of fire was going to burn the entire grassland.
The momentum is mighty and majestic, and in addition, in order to shock the Yan army, during the ride, the cavalry roared from the mouth, and in the open grassland, it was particularly powerful.
Suddenly, something happened to the galloping team, and the horses galloping in front of them screamed violently, and then the horses fell to the ground, the cavalry fell to the ground, and the torches in their hands fell to the ground.
"What's going on?" Zha Suhe was a little surprised by the sudden situation, and hurriedly asked.
However, the galloping horses were still injured from time to time, thus implicating the cavalry on horseback, causing the galloping army to become chaotic.
Many cavalry in the rear did not think of the situation in front of them at all, and the other side suddenly stopped moving forward, causing the troops behind to be unprepared, and it was not necessary to avoid a stampede during the rapid march.
After a wave of out-of-control situation, more than 1,000 people were killed inexplicably, and after the war horse stabilized, Zasuhe personally dismounted, and the cavalry behind dismounted and surrounded him with torches.
The crowd examined in detail what was on the ground, and the army suffered battle damage without a fight.
"General, look!" Some of the horsemen bent down and pushed through the grass, and saw that the dense green grass was full of sprinkled thistles, sharp sticks, and potholes the size of fists and the depth of water glasses.
These things are all cavalry nemesis, and when you don't know it, the cavalry enters it, and it is no wonder that you don't suffer.
Especially the big fist, but extremely deep pothole, since the Yan army tried to annihilate the Donghu cavalry in the grassland, it has become a killer weapon for the Yan army to defeat the enemy.
As a cavalry general, how could Zasuhe not know how many casualties these things would cause to the horses and cavalry.
The two armies did not fight, and the Yan army did this completely to give him a horse.
Under the firelight, Zha Suhe's face became hideous, leaned over and picked up the iron thistle terrestris on the ground, under the light of the fire, the iron thistle terrestris emitted a faint cold light, which was particularly dazzling, and the sharp edges and corners made people shudder.
"These bastards, such fucking bastards, have secretly set a trap." Zasuhe roared.
I thought that as long as I insisted on following Yan Jun, this time, Yan Jun would definitely not have a chance to escape from under the nose of the army, but unexpectedly, he only cared about monitoring Yan Jun, and did not realize that the other party was secretly setting a trap, which made him unguardable.
Before the battle, the loss of thousands of kilometers of cavalry for no reason made him even more mad and angry, and he couldn't wait to quickly ride his horse to pursue the Yan army, devour them all alive, and vent the hatred in his heart.
But he didn't dare to act rashly and disobey Borchi's military order, so he could only suppress the anger in his heart, looked up at the vast grassland under the night, couldn't help but worry, and instructed the soldiers: "Carefully investigate, how many traps did the Yan army leave in this grassland?" ”
When the guards heard this, they hurriedly dispersed and began to probe all sides, and soon, a hundred paces away, a miserable cry came from the mouth, apparently accidentally injured.
The man stood in place, not daring to move at all, with a bitter face, and said straight towards Zha Suhe: "General, within a hundred steps around, there are all thistles left by the Yan army, trapped in horse pits, and stumbling horses, if you want to continue to move forward, you must quickly remove these things." ”
Hearing this, Zha Suhe almost howled, the Yan army left these things, making it difficult for the army to move an inch, and the Yan army was cunning, how could it simply set a trap in one place?
If all the traps along the road are cleared, the Yan army is afraid that they will flee early and disappear.
"Lie to me too much, lie to me too much!" Zasu beat his chest and feet, and roared in the sky.
The mood is calm, but he has to send people to patiently clean up these things, otherwise, passing along the way, the horses and cavalry will be damaged again in vain, resulting in the expansion of casualties.
