Chapter 277: Confrontation

Chen Baili patrolled vigorously near Changling City, and thanks to this, no Qingguo person has crossed the defense line set up by Nanling City so far and told Liu Tingfeng everything that happened in Gaoshun City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 So much so that Liu Tingfeng didn't know everything that happened in Gao Shuncheng until now, and was kept in the dark.

This also provided Chen Baili with an opportunity to set up an ambush, and with the firm belief that Gao Shuncheng was still in his hands, Liu Tingfeng's vigilance against Nanling City would definitely not be too high.

This is a jungle, and the towering trees stand proudly.

But under the severe winter cold, the leaves have long since withered and yellowed, and the trees are full of snow at this time. From a distance, except for the shriveled bark, which is brownish-yellow, the rest is almost snow-white.

The large expanses of snow-white in the field of vision make it difficult for other colors to hide, but it also makes it easy for Liu Tingfeng's spies to ignore snow-white objects.

Chen Baili led his troops to lurk in the forest, and the soldiers were wrapped in white cloth, hiding all the whole body except for the head in the white cloth. Because of this, the spies sent by the vanguard of Qingguo were not aware of the lurking danger at all.

The large army was numerous, and the march together was slow.

Liu Tingfeng did not receive news from Gao Shuncheng for many days, and guessed in his heart that Gao Shuncheng had been surrounded by Chen Baili's troops at this time, so he couldn't even send letters out of the city.

Therefore, he sent this vanguard force, intending that this force could rush to Gaoshun City first and find out the enemy's situation.

The vanguard is still led by Tao Cheng, the vanguard general of the Qing Army.

Tao Cheng is brave, but he is also afraid of death and greed. But it is because of this that Liu Tingfeng attaches more importance to this person, only such a guy will not be hot-headed and take his soldiers to death.

In fact, as he expected, Tao Cheng has the courage to fight alone when he encounters the enemy, but he will also cherish his wings. These two contradictory personality psychology are perfectly combined in Tao Cheng's body. Inspired by high-ranking officials and Houlu, Tao Xianfeng moved forward, but when he encountered the danger that he could not cross, he also knew that he would retreat in a roundabout way.

Tao Cheng is not a qualified vanguard officer, but Liu Tingfeng uses his unqualified ability to reserve troops for himself while probing the enemy's situation.

In the light snow, Tao Cheng rode a tall horse, the horse was covered with a thick leather jacket, and the legs of the four slender and emaciated horses in front and back were also covered with cotton.

Even the horses are so "heavily guarded" in the face of the cold winter, and you can imagine how cold it is today.

A gust of cold wind blew, Tao Cheng shivered, and the cold felt through the gap in the clothes around his neck, and he slipped into it, freezing so that Tao Chenghan's hair exploded.

He is more unbearable to the cold than ordinary people.

Usually there is a stove in the camp tent to roast, Tao Cheng can bear it enough, and now facing this cold winter in the ice and snow, Tao Cheng only feels that it is useless to wrap more clothes on his body.

He scolded nonsense: "What kind of strange weather is this, it's about to freeze me to death." ”

As soon as the scolding fell, the whirring north seemed to be tighter, and the whistling wind swept around in an instant. The wind stopped, Tao Cheng rubbed his eyes, and he seemed to see something from the woodland.

He shot an arrow with his bow and shot an arrow at a place he suspected, but there was no blood on the spot as he expected.

"Could it be wild cats and wild dogs running around?" Just as Tao Cheng was thinking, there was a sudden **-like cat meow in the forest.

Not to mention the male cats, but the humans themselves are creepy.

Tao Cheng suddenly thought of something, and shouted: "No, everyone is on alert!" ”

His shouts were counterproductive, for as he had barely finished speaking, a large crowd of people suddenly appeared in the woods. Taking advantage of the fact that the Qingguo people were pulling out their weapons under Tao Cheng's reminder, the ambush soldiers led by Chen Baili had already begun to attack.

Bows and arrows rained down, breaking through the air from the forest, accompanied by the sound of arrows, flying towards the camp of the Qingguo people.

This time, the vanguard led by Tao Cheng was everyone riding horses.

Cavalry is a money-consuming class, and soldiers raise a tall horse, and they will not lose money to buy full-body armor.

Under Chen Baili's order, the target of the bow and arrow this time was not a person, but a horse under the crotch of the Qingguo soldier. Sure enough, the rain of bows and arrows reaped a lot of horse lives.

"Kill!"

With the cover of bows and arrows, Chen Baili led his troops to rush into the main camp of the Qing army. Infantry shock cavalry, it sounds like an unbelievable thing, in this world, there is only one person who has completed this task at present, and that is the Tianlin Army.

The Tianlin Army's fight against the Northern Barbarian Iron Floating Slaughter has become a good story among the people, and everyone has remembered the strong team as the victorious side.

However, compared to the Tianlin Army's hard resistance to Tiefutu, Chen Baili's opponent is not in the same order of magnitude.

Perhaps it was the evil spirit in Gaoshun City condensed on the soldiers a few days ago, and today they are unstoppable, in the case of the ambush troops being suppressed by the enemy, Chen Baili took his bloodthirsty subordinates, seven in and seven out of the enemy, and killed all directions.

The two sides looked at each other, and Qingjun was already lying down dozens of people.

Qingjun was suddenly jumped out of the forest by Chen Baili and others, and even when Tao Cheng reminded him of the command, he was still caught off guard.

In the fierce attack of Chen Guo, the Qing army could not even hold on to the neat queue, and soon the original array was unrecognizable, and the vanguard team scattered into a plate of scattered sand.

As a result, in the battle with Chen Guo, the combat effectiveness of the Qing army declined rapidly.

Plus, it's surrounded by woods on both sides. The vanguard team, who are good at riding horses, has no way to put the cavalry's biggest charging posture on the ground. The difference between cavalry and infantry is greatly reduced.

"Run, retreat." Tao Cheng can barely be classified as a cautious character, and at this moment he played a left and right, seeing that Chen Guoren ambushed a lot of soldiers, and the soldiers on his side could not withstand Chen Guoren's attack at all, Tao Cheng immediately ordered a retreat.

Even the general ordered a retreat, and the little morale of the Qing army immediately dispersed, and the army turned into scattered sand and fled backwards.

However, everyone in the vanguard team took care of the left and right front and rear when fleeing, which was similar to their instructors, who put life and death first.

Obviously, Tao Cheng's order to flee was right, otherwise Chen Baili was completely confident that he would leave all their men behind, if the enemy did not flee.

When the Qing army retreated, Chen Baili did not give the order to pursue the enemy, and he pulled his long sword out of the chest of a Qing soldier. In a hurry, he used the blade of his sword to pierce through the enemy's armor and plunge the tip of the sword into the soldier's heart.

Chen Baili glanced around, and after not seeing the Qingguo people again, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the other party doesn't know what happened in Gaoshun City, and he dares to send more than a thousand people to pass near Nanling City."
