Chapter 152: The Hook of the Lou Fu Cavalry

After Hua Xiong and Zhou Kai teamed up to kill eighteen centurions and centurions with good martial arts from the two tribes of Lou Fu, seeing the remnants of the six enemy generals urging the horses to flee, Hua Xiong and Zhou Kai did not chase after them, but grabbed the reins of the war horses and took the bows and arrows in their hands.

Immediately, Hua Xiong shouted: "Brother Zhou Kai, I am on the left and you are on the right!" ”

Zhou Kai shouted in response: "Okay! ”

Hua Xiong and Zhou Kai used strong bows, and the six Lou Fu generals who fled, the farthest one who fled at this time was only about a hundred steps, Hua Xiong and Zhou Kai quickly shot three arrows each, and the six Lou Fu generals who escaped were all shot off their horses, and they were all killed with one arrow.

"Wan Sheng-Wan Sheng-" Zhang Guiba and Zhang Guiben, two 3,000 infantry, couldn't help but cheer loudly again when they saw Hua Xiong and Zhou Kai kill all the more than 20 Lou Fu generals.

And the more than 57,000 cavalry of the two tribes, almost everyone showed a trace of fear on their faces, and the generals who led the troops of the two tribes looked at each other, in addition to fear, there was also some helplessness on their faces.

Twenty-four commanders and centurions with good martial arts fought more and less, and they were helpless against the two fierce generals of the Jin people in front of them, but they were all slaughtered by others, how can this fight continue?

The commander of the Cangxiong tribe, Bileg, hesitated for a moment, turned his head and said to Meng Laen, the commander of the Qingyang tribe: "The two fierce generals of the Jin people are really too powerful, and now the morale of tens of thousands of troops of our two tribes has become very low, I don't think it is suitable to launch another assault on Xishan Pass today, it is better to retreat to the camp for the time being, and talk about it tomorrow!" ”

Meng Laen, the captain of the Qingyang tribe, nodded and said, "I agree!" Our two tribes were killed a total of twenty-eight warriors today, but they didn't even kill a single Jin general, the impact on morale was too great, and it was really not suitable to launch a strong attack at this time. ”

As the commanders of the two tribes this time, since they have all decided, the generals of the other two tribes will not have any objections.

Then more than 57,000 cavalry of the Loufu Cangxiong tribe and the Qingyang tribe directly and slowly retreated backwards and retreated to the Loufu camp about eight miles north of the Xishan Pass.

Seeing the army of Lou Fu slowly retreating, Liu Ji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then Wei Xiaokuan, who was beside Liu Ji, said: "Lord, it seems that Lou Furen will not attack Xishankou today, but tomorrow Lou Furen will definitely attack directly, and there will definitely be no more fighting, Huaxiong brothers and Zhou Kai brothers, today I am too impressed by Lou Furen!" ”

Liu Ji was silent for a moment and said: "Lou Annoying people sent more than 80,000 people at once, it is impossible to easily repel them, only by gritting their teeth and fighting to the end, can they have a chance to win, pass on the military order of General Ben, this time in the big battle with Lou Annoying, there is no order to kill those who retreat!" ”

Although the Lou Fu army retreated to the camp eight miles north of Xishankou, their scout cavalry still stayed near Xishankou, monitoring the movements of the Jin army here in Xishankou, which made Liu Ji temporarily useless except for leading his troops to fight hard.

The time soon came to the next day, that is, March 16, 426 of the Great Jin Dynasty, early in the morning the main force of the Lou Fu army, and the army outside the Linxi Pass, today the strength of the Lou Fu army is more than yesterday, more than 60,000 Lou Fu cavalry, was brought out by the generals of the two tribes.

According to the agreement of the two commanders of the Cangxiong tribe and the Qingyang tribe, the Cangxiong tribe first launched a strong attack on the Xishan Pass, so the commander of the Cangxiong tribe Bilegg waved his hand, and a thousand-man team of the cavalry of the Cangxiong tribe rushed to the row of wooden walls at the entrance of the Xishan Pass.

Standing behind the wooden wall under Liu Ji were still Zhang Guiba and Zhang Guiben's two infantry, at this time the two infantry stood side by side, each infantry had 10 rows, so that there were 300 soldiers in each row behind the wooden wall, forming an infantry formation of 3,000 people.

The first row of 300 foot soldiers in the infantry formation were dressed in iron armor and held shields and steel knives in their hands, the second to seventh rows of foot soldiers, the front and back two were responsible for a long wooden spear, and the foot soldiers of the eighth to tenth rows acted as archers.

When a thousand-strong team of cavalry of the Loufu Cangxiong tribe approached, the first row of foot soldiers behind the wooden wall erected rectangular shields and put them on the upper end of the wooden wall, the second to seventh rows of foot soldiers raised the rectangular shields to form a protective wall, and the archers in the last three rows began to shoot arrows at the approaching Loufu cavalry.

Although the thousand-man team of the cavalry of the Lou Fu Cangxiong tribe also fired arrows at the Jin infantry behind the wooden wall, they were all blocked by the protective wall composed of rectangular shields, and many of the charging Lou Fu cavalry were shot down from their horses.

Liu Ji still led a large group of generals today, standing on a gentle slope not far behind the wooden wall to supervise the battle, seeing a force of more than 1,000 people of Lou Fu cavalry constantly approaching the wooden wall, Liu Ji couldn't help but wonder how the Lou Fu cavalry had to break through the wooden wall at the entrance, you must know that the diameter of the wooden stakes to build the wooden wall is more than 20 centimeters, the height is more than 1 meter 50 centimeters, and there are long wooden guns from the infantry formation above the wooden wall.

Liu Ji felt that it was difficult for the Lou Fu cavalry to break through the wooden wall at the entrance, whether it was bumped or crossed, but Liu Ji did not expect that this force of about 1,000 Lou Fu cavalry, when they were more than ten steps away from the wooden wall, suddenly turned, and many Lou Fu cavalry rode on war horses and threw ropes with iron hooks to the wooden wall.

Some of the hooks were hooked on the stakes of the wooden wall, and at least dozens of hooks were successfully hooked to the wooden wall, and the Lou Fu cavalry made a U-shaped turn in front of the wooden wall, and then urged the horses to retreat in the direction of the Lou Fu army.

Immediately after that, with a "boom-" sound, the wooden wall at the entrance of Xishan Pass was hooked down by dozens of hooks and cables, exposing Zhang Guiba and Zhang Guiben's two 3,000 infantry to more than 60,000 cavalry.

"Damn-Lou Fu cavalry will still use this trick, the wooden wall built is destroyed so easily!" When Liu Ji saw that the wooden wall was pulled down, he immediately said angrily.

At this time, Su Lie, who was beside Liu Ji, said in a deep voice: "Lord, if the infantry wants to block the Lou Fu army, this wooden wall can't play a big role, the key is to rely on our infantry array!" ”

Liu Ji knew that what Le Yi said was reasonable, but the armies of the two sides had not yet started a real fight, and his side had lost the fortification of the wooden wall, after all, it was a blow to his morale, and Liu Ji couldn't help but have a feeling in his heart that today's war would be extremely cruel.

"Let the two infantry of Cheng Pu and Huang Gai immediately line up behind Zhang Guiba and Zhang Guiben, and the two infantry of Zhang Guihou and Han Dang will line up behind Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, we must stop at all costs to block the Lou Fu army here at Xishan Pass!"
