Chapter 345: White Wave Valley

Liu Bao was relieved to let his cavalry cross the mountain path of Tongtian Mountain, but he was careful to let the cavalry of other tribes set off first, and after the cavalry of those tribes had walked half of the mountain road without any abnormality, he took his two thousand cavalry and Guo Yuan's men and horses to set foot on this Tongtian Mountain Road.

Liu Bao and Guo Yuan had just walked to the middle of the mountain road, when they suddenly felt that the originally clear sky was overcast for a moment.

Liu Bao looked up, accompanied by the sharp sound of breaking the air, and the rain of arrows covering the sky and pouring down.

Liu Bao screamed, turned over and dismounted, and hid his body in the horse's belly.

Some of the quick-witted cavalrymen also hurriedly hid their bodies under the belly of their horses.

The overwhelming rain of arrows and the cavalry and the stout horses that could not dodge were all shot into a honeycomb shape.

Guo Yuan originally came from martial arts, riding on a horse, waving a big sword, and striking a dense array of arrow feathers, but the war horse under his command was shot by a stray arrow and fell to the ground with a bang.

Guo Yuan was caught off guard and fell off the horse, and his body was also hit with two arrows in an instant, but fortunately he didn't hit the vital point.

Guo Yuan and Liu Bao wanted to fight back, but when they looked up at the mountain, they found that the archers who emerged on the slopes on both sides of the hill were all wearing grass rings on their heads, and their faces were painted grass green on their robes, hiding among the pines and cypresses, which was really difficult to distinguish.

Guo Yuan and Liu Bao looked at each other helplessly, so let's withdraw quickly.

Under the protection of the Xiongnu elite soldiers and the warriors of the Yuan army, the two relied on the horses that fell to the ground and the shrubs on both sides of the mountain road, bent over, strode forward, and fled forward along the rugged mountain road.

The archers on the slopes of the mountains on both sides were in hot pursuit, chasing and dropping arrows down, and those archers crossed the mountains and mountains as if they were walking on the ground, and their archery skills were not inferior to these Hun cavalry, firing wantonly from top to bottom.

Guo Yuan and Liu Bao kept having soldiers around them with a muffled snort, and they fell to the ground with arrows.

Guo Yuan and Liu Bao didn't dare to stop, trotted all the way, and walked through the mountain road more than five miles long.

Suddenly there was a large flat area ahead, and the jungle archers did not go down the mountain in pursuit, but turned and ran towards the other peaks.

Guo Yuan and Liu Bao looked at the backs of those jungle archers with hatred, the ambush just now caused them to lose more than 1,100 Xiongnu elite cavalry and more than 900 Yuan troops, this is because there are only more than 1,000 jungle archers, if there are more than 10,000 people, they have to explain here.

However, they could not send troops to pursue these jungle archers, because Liu Bao's Xiongnu elite cavalry and Guo Yuan's army were mostly elite cavalry, and they were heroes on horses.

Liu Bao frowned and thought for a while, and said to himself suspiciously: "The army that is running like a flight in the mountains and forests in this area of Bingzhou is none other than Zhang Yan's Montenegrin army, looking at the outfit of the group of archers just now Although the outfit is very different from the Montenegrin army in the past, their way of fighting is very similar, could it be said that Zhang Yan has taken refuge in Wei Yan?" ”

Guo Yuan was shocked when he heard this: "What, Zhang Yan took refuge in Wei Yan?!" Impossible. ”

Liu Bao shook his head: "If you can cooperate with us, then Wei Yan may also cooperate with Zhang Yan!" ”

In fact, Wei Yan did send someone to cooperate with Zhang Yan, but Zhang Yan is now cooperating with Gongsun Zan to deal with Yuan Shao, and has no spare strength to deal with Wei Yan.

Before Wei Yan came, he had asked Liao Hua to come with 10,000 mountain soldiers to participate in the ambush.

Earlier, the vicinity of Yiyang New Town was surrounded by mountains, and after more than a year of actual combat or actual combat training, the infantry became elite soldiers who were proficient in mountain warfare.

Liu Bao and Guo Yuan learned the lesson just now, when passing through a subsequent valley, they put their cronies in the middle, and the cavalry of other tribes at both ends, the front army and the army scrambled through that valley, and the Hun cavalry behind the palace were afraid of being ambushed, so they rushed forward, and the valley was huddled.

At this moment, another group of more than 1,000 archers from Liao Hua rushed out and happily threw down thousands of arrow feathers, causing the Hun cavalry to lose more than 4,000 people.

After Liao Hua's archer shot the arrow feathers in the quiver, he did not enter the mountains and forests.

On the journey of two hundred miles from Tongtian Mountain to Baibo Valley, every time they pass through a valley or a mountain forest, Liu Bao and Guo Yuan will definitely be greeted by the rain of arrows from Liaohua archers, Liu Bao and Guo Yuan finally couldn't bear it, they didn't care about anything, and let the cavalry dismount and sneak into the mountains and forests to catch up.

In this way, Liao Hua was ordered by Wei Yan to take 10,000 mountain soldiers and disperse to the continuous mountains from Tongtian Mountain to Baibo Valley, waiting for an opportunity to attack Liu Bao and Guo Yuan's men and horses.

By the time these Hun cavalry reached the periphery of the Baibo Valley, more than 14,000 had already been shot dead, and more than 7,000 were wounded and could not be immediately put into battle.

Liu Bao was able to deal with Wei Yan's Wei army with less than 50,000 men, and they were all tired divisions.

Baibo Valley, is the old river channel of Fenshui, a long, long time ago, Fenshui is westward into the Yellow River, when it flows through Linfen, through Baibo Valley, I don't know when, Fenshui suddenly diverted, has been to the south into the Yellow River, no longer flows through Baibo Valley, Baibo Valley will be abandoned.

In the past, the Fenshui was very wide, as the old river channel of the Fenshui, the Baibo Valley was also very broad, showing a gourd shape, the two ends were narrow, the middle was wide, the distance between the two ends was about more than 30 miles, the widest place in the middle was more than three miles, after tens of thousands of years of Fenshui scouring, the Baibo Valley was surrounded by cliffs with thousands of walls, it was difficult to climb up and it was difficult to climb down, only two ends could enter the people, and these two ends were extremely narrow, a little construction, it became a dangerous pass that one person could not open, and the two ends of this river valley were lush with vegetation, covering the sky and the sun, It is difficult for ordinary people to discover this hidden place.

At the beginning, Guo Tai, Han Xian, Yang Feng, Hu Cai, Li Le and others followed Zhang Jiao after the failure of the rebellion in Jizhou, they were chased and killed by the officials and soldiers, and inadvertently fled here.

The best mix of the yellow turbans is this wave, because of the strong strength, after Dong Zhuo moved west to Chang'an, he recognized their legitimacy politically and wooed them. After Dong Zhuo's defeat, Emperor Han Xian returned to the east, and the main force as the guard was the white wave thief, such as Yang Feng was one of the white wave shuai. Emperor Xian walked to the Yellow River to prepare to cross north, Yang Feng contacted Bai Boshuai Li Le, Han Xian, Hu Cai and others to come to the rescue, and they defeated Li Dao and others to save Emperor Xian. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty named the three generals of Zhengdong, Zhengxi, and Zhengbei, and ruled together with Yang Feng and Dong Cheng.

Later, Yang Feng and Han Xian were defeated by Wei Yan, and after being captured, they were handed over to Cao Cao for execution.
