Chapter 538: Night Attack, Night Attack (5)

"Boss, why do you say that?" Chaolu asked doggedly.

"You think, there are mountains and trees in the east, it is not easy to run, it is naturally beneficial to the pursuers, but it is different in the west, it is all grassland, and there is no scruple about running fast." Bagan shook his head and said, then leaned over to Zhiwen's side, "I'm right, Childe?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another light in the horse team coming from the south, and it was Amin who lit the torches.

"That's right." Zhiwen listened to the sound of approaching horses' hooves, looked at those torches, and knew that if there was no accident, the two sides chasing and fleeing would come to their vicinity sooner or later, and they needed to prepare in advance, so that they would not be in a hurry to protect themselves or help others.

"Dingguo!"

"Yes."

"Gather the team and fight at any time."

"Yes!"

"The order of each mercenary group, the formation arrangement, arrange it for them now." Zhiwen then commanded.

After Li Dingguo responded, he yelled at the mercenary leaders, "Battle formation, hurry!" ”

When Zou Qun, Zhang Xianzhong and others heard this, they each gave orders to their opponents, and after a little hecticism, the formation that had been rehearsed several times on the road to the east stood up.

The mercenary regiment dominated by the border army has good melee combat, placed in the front army, the mercenaries from the horse bandits and herdsmen have good archery skills, as a cover for the two wings, Li Dingguo led the team members in the Chinese army, and behind the palace were Zhang Xianzhong and other mercenaries from the pass.

......

Zilharang and Huri did not ride on the horse, but grabbed the horse's belly with their legs and lifted the horse up quickly.

With these more than 300 empty horses, there is no need to care about horsepower, but to take advantage of Amin's unchanging horses, either to close the distance, or to drag him down.

"Amma, what should I do?" If they want to get out of this passive situation, they can only urge the horses in the same way, but if they do this, they will not be able to last, once the horses lose their strength, not only will they be caught up, but they will also lose their strength, even if they turn around and fight, they will also lose the upper hand.

Amin sat on his horse and muttered for a moment, then instructed Dajib, "Divide a hundred men and horses, and hold back the enemy." ”

Fortunately for Amin, these days, because the goods to be exchanged for grain have been transported here one after another, there are many more people than usual, and there are torches to point them in the direction, so it only takes a moment to escape from the cow, and three hundred soldiers have gathered around Amin one after another.

These people were all taken by him, and they were not allowed to go to meet the enemy, the terrain to the west of Niulu was open, and the other party couldn't catch up for a while, so there was no need to make senseless sacrifices.

Amin's idea is to gather more people and horses, and then reflexively deal with these guys after he has the strength to fight, or at that time, other reinforcements from Niu Lu have also arrived, and he doesn't need to do it himself, just with the extra people, he can also pile these thieves to death.

It's just that at the moment, this plan doesn't seem to work, the other party's intention is very clear, that is, to catch up with him in a short time, even if there are fewer people for this, it is Amin who has to divide some men and horses again to block the enemy, even if it is not an opponent, it can stop the other party.

Dajib whistled, followed by Amin's cavalry, more than 100 men, turned sideways to the right, and after making a circle, collided with the enemy's forward.

Taking advantage of the neighing of the horses in the rear and the fight was in full swing, Amin and the others continued to run, taking the opportunity to distance themselves.

"Poof!" After holding a sword and cutting off a human head, there was no obstacle in front of him, but in a few moments, this cavalry of more than 100 people was scattered by them with a large number of outnumbered and weak defeats.

Amin didn't escape far, and there was still a chance, but Zilharang slammed the back of his knife on the horse's buttocks, and chased after him.

He didn't follow him, but he was a little distressed, this time it was different from the situation of blocking them in Niu Lu.

At that time, there were no more than ten or twenty people at most, all small groups of men and horses, rushing towards them in the alleyway, most of the time there was no need to engage in close combat at all, and a rain of arrows passed, and it could be finished, with minimal casualties, and Bayala was not damaged at all.

This time outside of Niulu, the place is open, and although the men and horses left behind by Amin are still less than them, they are also hundreds, even if they fight head-on, it will take some work, not to mention that they are facing from the side after going around in a circle.

In the case of running at high speed, the face-to-face running is not a big problem, but against the side front, the accuracy is much worse, and the rain of arrows before the handover of the short army is not very effective, and they really rely on their own strength to defeat this cavalry.

Hand-to-hand combat in close quarters, although they were not inlaid with blue flags, but after all, they were also the elite of the Eight Banners, this time, the two yellow flags of Bayala were finally damaged, more than 20 people died, and more than 30 were slightly injured, which was the biggest loss since the night attack.

That's it, as long as you can capture Amin this time, this casualty can still be bearable, thinking of this, Hu Li did not signal the soldiers behind him not to relax, and continued to follow him gritted his teeth and chased closely.

Zilharang and the others did not hesitate to urge the horses, and soon approached Amin again, making them frown big, it was Amin who should have only 200 people left after the division of troops just now, and in just a while, it was back to more than 300 people.

It seems that there are soldiers with blue flags running out of the Niu Lu to support, and I don't know what's going on, this little Niu Lu will have a lot more soldiers than usual.

He didn't have any doubts in his heart, and completely forgot that when he came here in disguise to listen to the news, someone with the blue flag kept transporting ginseng, Dongzhu and other things here.

No, if it goes on like this, there will only be more and more soldiers gathered around Amin, and when the time comes, let alone capture him, it is difficult to say whether he and others can retreat with their whole body.

Zilharang already had other thoughts about Amin, and he was happy to see it come true, and he also slapped the horse's ass a few times.

Closer, closer, seeing Amin and the others in front of him, catching up with the hope, a man with a crotch mount suddenly lost his front hooves, this man was vigorous, just felt that something was wrong, he withdrew his feet from the stirrups, and when the horse fell forward, he had already risen into the air, and trotted forward a few steps after landing, and the whole person was not hurt at all.

I don't secretly call it lucky, fortunately, this person is in the outskirts of the horse team, otherwise, the fun will be great, and it is bound to bring the people and horses behind one after another, but Bayala has always been a good rider, how can he make such a low-level mistake at a critical moment, is it...

In just a moment, he thought of the cause of the horse's stumbling hooves, and reached out to touch the horse's neck, and the tentacles were extremely wet, and the horse's body was already stained with sweat, and the horse's nose was a heavy wheezing sound.
