Chapter 22: Ambush
"Wuhuan people-" Helian Tu suddenly came to his senses: "It seems that this Liu Yu's backhand and reliance is this Wuhuan people, but after hearing about the rebellion in Youzhou, there are only 80,000 left in this Pulu Department and only 30,000 in the Qiu Liju Department - as long as they don't attack when I am in a confrontation with Gongsun Zhan and Yan Zhanshu, then there is no need to worry." (Book ^ House * Small} Said + Net)" Gripping the scepter and smiling coldly: "Liu Yu Lao'er will not let those two dogs attack in advance!" These Han people are intrigued, and they are very capable! โ
"There are still thirty miles to Lulongzhai!" Hearing the return of the horse and looking at the undulating mountains, Gongsun Fan was a little uncertain, and stepped forward with the reins of the horse: "Brother, why don't you let me go and investigate first, the terrain here is treacherous, not a good place." โ
"No need!" Gongsun Chan waved his hand, "It is impossible for Xianbei to know our marching route, in their opinion, the 400,000 army is blocked in Lulongzhai, and our reinforcements can only dare to reinforce from the Great Wall, but how can my Gongsun Chan be those who are not brave!" I prefer to defeat Xianbei in the field, so as to boost the morale of the defending army - you must know that you can only defend if you can fight, and you will lose if you defend to the death! โ
"Thank you Father!" Gongsun Xu's eyes lit up when he heard this, the art of war was originally used like this.
Guan Yu, who was not far away, heard this, and couldn't help but say to Liu Bei: "Big brother, General Gongsun is indeed insightful, and he is worthy of being a famous general who once sat in Youbeiping and blocked hundreds of thousands of rebels!" โ
"Of course, when I was studying with Master Lu, Brother Bo Gui and I were the best among them, how could ordinary barbarians be able to compete!" Liu Bei said proudly when he heard this.
"Uh, big brother! My eyelids jumped, isn't there some evil in this place? Zhang Fei looked at the increasingly gloomy mountains around him, and always felt that something was wrong.
"Huh?" Guan Yu looked around, and his face changed greatly: "Not good!" The mountain birds do not fall on the mountains, and it is obvious that there are a large number of enemy troops in ambush! Big brother, quickly remind General Gongsun! โ
"Wouldn't it?!" Liu Bei was a little unconvinced, "How can the Xianbei people know the marching route of our army?" If you say it wrong, you will be ridiculed! โ
From a distance, it seemed that Gongsun Chan smiled at him, Liu Bei's face turned red all of a sudden, and he secretly complained that Guan Yu was making a fuss.
After hesitating, the cavalry army galloped forward more than a mile away, and suddenly, "Woo woo-" The dull sound of horns resounded through the mountains, and countless Xianbei cavalry appeared from the mountains on both sides, and there were large armies in the front and rear, countless strong bows were drawn, and sharp arrows were aimed at Gongsun Zhan's army.
The 210,000 Xianbei Iron Cavalry gathered into a huge cavalry formation, dense like locusts, and the gloomy mountains were covered by a large gray-brown crowd of people in an instant. Billowing smoke and dust rose from behind the Xianbei cavalry formation, gradually rising higher and higher, threatening to cover the entire sky. In the Xianbei array, the great king Helian Tu was wearing gorgeous leather armor, holding a scepter symbolizing royal power, riding on a blood-red horse, squinting his eyes slightly, looking coldly.
"Blade Formation! Charge! "The first time Gongsun Zhan found out that he was ambushed by the Xianbei people, he didn't have time to pay attention to the reaction of Liu Bei's three people, so he quickly issued the order to charge - if he waited until the Xianbei people's 200,000 army was surrounded, and the side that lost the advantage of the war horse charge, it would inevitably only end up hateful!
Helian Tu's eyes revealed murderous intent, these humble Han people dared to charge towards the Xianbei Iron Cavalry? It won't be long. They will become the souls of the Xianbei warriors!
Suddenly, Helian raised his right arm.
"The king has an order, the whole army charges-" Dozens of horsemen galloped away from Heliantu's carriage, quickly conveying Heliantu's order, the surging Xianbei cavalry formation accelerated, looking down from the sky, countless ant-like cavalry slowly closed towards the middle, like ants surrounding and eating all the insects in the middleโ
Seeing the powerful cavalry formation of the Xianbei cavalry that could almost devour the sky and the earth, and then looking at the poor cavalry of the Han army charging ahead, Helian Tu couldn't help but be full of pride, and said sonorously: "Golden wolf cavalry - attack!" โ
"Helian Chilie!" Helian Tu let out a loud shout, looking at the commander of the Golden Wolf Rider, his other brother.
Helian Chilie rode forward with the golden wolf, and on the bumpy mountain road, he actually found a balance, and at the moment when the war horse jumped up, he pulled his bow and arrows, pointing to the sky, the five-stone strong bow opened quickly, and the sharp arrow cluster pointed to the banner of the Han army that was charging in front of him, and then his right hand was released, only to hear a buzzing sound, and the wolf's tooth arrow on the string had already swept into the air-
"Huh-" The sharp wolf's tooth arrow slashed through the sky in an instant, and flew into the Han army formation with a sharp scream, the cold light flashed, and only a sound was heard, and the rope of the banner held high by Gongsun Xu was shot in two, and the white horse banner fell suddenly.
Seeing this, Gongsun Zhan's face sank, at such a distance, there was such accuracy, this Xianbei shooter's eyesight and arm strength can be described as terrifying! Many Xianbei people are good at shooting, and this statement is true.
And the flag is falling, the omen is really bad! The more Gongsun Chan thought about it, the more angry he became, stretched out his right hand, grabbed the iron tire bow from the horse's body, and drew a feather arrow from the quiver and put it on the string, and shouted, the muscles on his arm bulged violently, and in a piercing crunch, the iron tire bow with five stone pulling force was already full.
"Hey-" Gongsun Chan exhaled, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the sharp wolf's tooth arrow came out of the string.
"Huh-" In an instant, it swept over the battlefield, shot directly into the Xianbei formation, and plunged deeply into the banner beside Heliantu. Seeing this, Helian Tu's eyes were suddenly awe-inspiring! Xianbei people are known for their martial arts and bravery, and they are famous in the world, but they didn't expect that there are such archery masters among the Han people!
Heliantu took a deep breath of cold air, and his majestic body stood up from the horse's back, and his strong right arm raised the scepter above the top and swung it forward.
"Kill them all, leave no one behind-"
The Xianbei Cavalry Formation, which was originally shocked by Gongsun Zhan's superb archery skills and slightly condensed, immediately accelerated again, and rushed over with a crazy howl-
In the Han army's formation, Gongsun Zhan's eyes were cold, and on the way to charge, he opened his mouth and shouted: "Where righteousness goes, the sky can learn from it!" All the white horse servants and even all the cavalry of the Han army responded together: "Life and death go hand in hand, and the white horse is the proof!" โ
On the way to charge, with the sound of their joint shouting, all the war horses miraculously began to run in sync, one step, two steps, three steps! Two thousand thousand white horses burst out of an extremely strong confidence and killing intent from the bodies of even the twenty thousand Han cavalry, and in the sky above the military formation, a huge white horse was conjured, with its forelimbs raised, and trampled down towards the surging Xianbei cavalry in front!
"Noโ" The panicked Xianbei cavalry shouted as they watched the huge horseshoe step downโ
"Whew-" The mount hissed in grief, and fell to the ground along with the rider under tremendous pressure.
"Boom-" Nearly a thousand cavalrymen were trampled to pieces by the hooves of the white horses!
Gongsun Chan waved his right arm forward slightly, "Kill-" Countless Han cavalry roared out of the formation, like a spiritual snake dancing wildly, sweeping towards the surging Xianbei people on both sides, at this moment, Gongsun Zhan's expression was extremely cold.
"Are you the only ones who have the Legion of Souls?" Seeing the tragic situation of the Xianbei cavalry in front of him, Helian Chilie said angrily: "Golden wolf iron horseman, the grassland is invincible!" โ
"Swallow Wusun in the west, and border Han in the south!" The three thousand golden wolf riders responded in unison, and a strong killing intent that was not inferior to the white horse's righteousness rose into the air, forming a hideous golden wolf above the Xianbei army, and rushed towards the Han army with a "woo-" sound.
The huge wolf's head poked out, and suddenly thousands of ordinary Han army war horses were frightened and hid in Tibet, and the entire charging formation was suddenly chaotic.
"Tear off the sleeves and tie the battle eyes tightly!" Gongsun Zhan's shouting and reprimand suddenly sounded, and the response was correct, but in front of the two armies that were about to clash, it was already a beat slower.
In order to gain time for the panicked war horses to relieve, the two thousand white horses had to rush forward and start hand-to-hand combat with the three thousand golden wolf riders! Heavy iron hooves trampled fiercely on the dry and icy desert, rolling up a cloud of smoke and dust, covering the dim skyโ
In front of the iron cavalry formation, Gongsun Chan urged the horse to gallop forward, the earth retreated from under his feet like a tide, and the scorching battle intent churned fiercely in his chest, and suddenly, Gongsun Chan raised his right arm, and the huge tiger body also stood upright on the horseback, witnessing the gesture of the main general, the formation of the two thousand white horses changed in an instant-the iron cavalry in front kept moving at a uniform speed, but the iron cavalry in the middle and behind began to accelerate, and slowly spread towards the two wings, and the bow and arrow in his hand began to raise towards the sky in front of him-
In less than a moment, the two thousand white horses had been fully unfolded, forming four rows in front and back, each row of five hundred horses, each riding at a dense rush of no more than one step, from the front to the surging golden wolf iron horsemen to meet upโ
