Chapter 13: Annihilation of the Wuhuan Cavalry

The sky is getting darker and darker, but when I first entered the application, it was already blurred 100 meters away, especially in this bad snowstorm weather, which seriously affected the vision. Guo Jia looked at the sky and said worriedly: "Lord, it's getting dark." ”

"Hmm." Liu Yuan nodded heavily.

"When it's completely dark, we'll lose!" Guo Jia asserted: "The cavalry comes and goes like the wind, maneuvering and nimble, and in the dark night it is like a ghost, unpredictable. Just wait until it gets dark, and if you move, you will lose your trace. But the lord's command was full of infantry, not even archers, and he could only blindly resist in the dark night, and could not counterattack. When the time comes, Hu Lu will come as soon as he wants, and leave as soon as he wants, and under the harassment of repeated raids, the soldiers will definitely suffer heavy losses, and they will only need to go back and forth two or three times, and the team will collapse! ”

"So"

"So we must set up a surprise attack before Hu Qi moves, force them to face them head-on, and destroy them as quickly as possible!"

"Feng Xiao's words are reasonable!" As soon as Liu Yuan's mind turned, he understood what Guo Jia thought.

Indeed, with infantry against cavalry, there is simply no chance of victory, except for a frontal decisive battle. If the cavalry is bent on fighting guerrillas, they only need to harass in batches and exhaust the infantry, so back and forth will easily drag down the infantry.

"But" Liu Yuan looked at the unfinished fortifications, and wondered: "The people have not been properly settled, I can't rest assured!" What if you don't do everything under one blow, and run away from some of them to attack the camp? The speed of the foot soldiers is too slow, and by the time they return to help, I'm afraid they will already be bleeding! When the time comes, it's too late to regret it. ”

"Hehe, don't worry, lord. Jia has a shot, and he will be able to wipe out Hu Qi! Guo Jia smiled leisurely, confident.

"Oh?" Liu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Come quickly!" ”

"Don't worry, my lord, and listen to me slowly." Guo Jia was slow, which made Liu Yuan want to scratch his ears and cheeks.

"Now Hu Qi is stationed on the mountain and has not moved, although it is impossible to attack it with fire because of the wet weather, but it is advantageous for us to know his whereabouts. The lord only sent Dian Wei and other subordinates who had been bandits and hunters in the past to quietly arrange traps in the forests on both sides that could be controlled by people, and then sent Xu Huang to escort money, grain and grass from the valley road with great fanfare, luring the bandits to attack, and then ambush a team of soldiers at the exit of the valley road, and finally leave a team of soldiers to set up roadblocks everywhere at the entrance. So you can succeed! ”

When Liu Yuan heard this, although he didn't fully understand what Guo Jia meant, he couldn't refute his plan because of the name Guo Jia. At the moment, he called Dian Wei, Yan Liang and other subordinates

to start assigning tasks.

Slowly glancing at everyone, Liu Yuan immediately ordered: "Where is Yan Liang!" ”

"Lord, Yan Liang is here!"

Order, Yan Liang immediately selected the young and strong people who were good at setting traps and handed them over to Dian Wei. Then lead the five hundred strongest young men to ambush at the entrance of the valley road, wait for Hu to ride into the pot, and immediately set up a barricade! ”

"Whoa!"

"Where is Dian Wei?"

"Young master, my old man is here!"

"Order, Dian Wei immediately led the trap experts to set up man-made traps in the woods on both sides of the ancient road, and hide them, and then listen to my command, and then attack!"

"Dian Wei commands!"

"Tian Feng, you and the prince stay in the camp, pacify the people, and urge the fortifications to be built as soon as possible, just in case."

"Yes, my lord."

"Immediately send someone to Xu Huang to pass my order, order, Xu Huang and a hundred elites to come here to escort grain, grass, gold and silver, and cross the valley road with great fanfare."

"Guo Jia and Chen Qun, and follow Yan Liang's team, and act when the opportunity arises."

"I will lead three hundred young men and ambush them at the exit of the valley road."

After giving the order, Liu Yuan looked at everyone quietly for a long time, and suddenly his majestic body shook slightly, and he said in a deep voice:

"Ladies and gentlemen, let us work together to annihilate Hu Qi!"

"I will live up to the trust of the lord!" Dian Wei Yanliang yelled.

When Xu Huang led more than 100 people to return, Dian Wei and Yan Liangye had been gone for a long time. At that moment, he explained the task to Xu Huang, and Liu Yuan also led three hundred people through the dense forest on the right and ambushed at the exit.

Half an hour passed in a flash, and when I looked at the sky, it was not completely dark. The appointed time has come.

Liu Yuan led the rhubarb to hide in the forest, while softly comforting the three hundred young men who had never seen blood, and at the same time secretly cheering himself up. Regardless of his past or present life, he has only killed one person with his own hands, and that is Wen Chou, who slaughtered the village. Such a war of thousands of people has only been seen on the screen in the previous life. Although he is a little restless now, Liu Yuan believes in Guo Jia and believes in himself.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise at the entrance over there, and Xu Huang entered the valley.

In the deep forest on the mountain on the left, the Wuhuan cavalry camped.

"Report! Xiaoshuai, the prey is moving! ”

The little handsome of the Wuhuan cavalry is burly and tall, with an ordinary appearance, only a pair of eyes that are a little shining, showing his extraordinary. After listening to the report of the sentinel, this little handsome couldn't help but perk up, and hurriedly said, "What's the movement?" ”

"The Han people abandoned the old and weak, and the young and middle-aged men escorted the gold, silver, grain and grass to pass through the valley road!"

"Impossible!" Xiao Shuai pondered for a moment and said categorically: "The Han people have always regarded themselves as loyal and filial, and they will never abandon the old and weak!" There must be a scam in it! ”

"Xiao Shuai, I said that we watched from afar and found that although there were tens of thousands of prey on this road, most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled. It is a lamb that can make up thousands of young and strong, and has never seen blood. No matter how many lambs there are, they are still lambs, even if they are deceitful, how can they be the opponents of the wolves! ”

Xiao Shuai retorted with his left hand.

"Yes, the deputy marshal is right!" The people under the tent followed suit.

As soon as Xiao Shuai heard this, he remembered the simplicity of plundering Han villages in the past, so he let go of his uneasiness and said with a smile: "What you said is true, a lamb is a lamb, how can it be the opponent of the wolves?" Hahaha After this is done, we will immediately return to the grassland, hey, the taste of the Han mother-in-law at home, Tutu immediately check the bow horse and prepare for battle! ”

"Yes, yes! This time, we must slaughter more lambs, grab a few more mothers-in-law to go back, and give birth to our cubs, hahaha"

"Get on the horse, let's rob the fuck!"

The leaders of the Wuhuan suddenly agreed, and immediately ordered all the pawns under their command, crossed the sword and mounted the horse, and ran down the slope.

The Wuhuan people are worthy of being a nation on horseback, only to see them slow down their horses and walk in the mountains, but they are also walking on the ground! Horses carried the knights, dodging trees and obstacles, and headed straight for the valley roadβ€”although there were unlucky men who were not good at riding and were scraped off their horses by the branches, but they were still a minority.

"It's coming!" Dian Wei crouched on the tree, his ears moved, and he hurriedly ordered his subordinates to hold their breath and concentrate.

"It's coming!" Xu Huang shook the big axe excitedly and shouted: "Quickly surround the carriage into a circle to block the cavalry impact!" When his subordinates heard this, they immediately complied, and as soon as they were done, a Wuhuan cavalry army emerged from the edge of the forest!

"It's coming!" Liu Yuan's face tightened, and he hurriedly said to three hundred young people: "Wait a while, follow me closely, just listen to my orders, I will ask you to collect the gun, and then you will stab forward!" ”

The young men each held a sweat-soaked wooden spear, their joints were white, their lips were closed, their teeth were rattling, and the green tendons on their faces were exposed, which showed the tension in their hearts.

"It's coming!" Guo Jia listened to the rumbling horses' hooves from the valley road ahead, and hurriedly instructed Yan Liangdao: "Tell everyone to prepare to set up barricades." ”

Yan Liang's face was even more angry, and the flames in his heart were hot.

In the valley road, Wuhuan Xiaoshuai held a big knife, and led thousands of horsemen to rush into a circle surrounded by dozens of carriages!

"Kill!"

If a thousand horses broke out in a torrent, the entire yellow torrent crashed into the circle with a bang!

Suddenly, more than a dozen carriages were knocked over, grain, grass, gold and silver were scattered all over the place, Liu Yuan's soldiers behind the carriage were crushed to death and more than a dozen were injured, and the first batch of Wuhuan cavalry who attacked the carriage were thrown away forty or fifty, and they were killed by Xu Huang's soldiers when they fell to the ground.

"Dead open!"

Wuhuan Xiaoshuai slashed the soldiers who were blocking the way, and his eyes were only staring at Xu Huang, who was rampaging in the chaos with a big axe.

Xu Huang had also been paying attention to Wuhuan Xiaoshuai for a long time, and when he saw him rushing here, he immediately pulled out the horse's head, and the big axe danced like a wheel, covering Fang Yuanzhangyu, and seventy or eighty people followed him behind him, turning into an arrow, breaking through many obstacles, killing dozens of Hulu, and engaging with Xiaoshuai!

"Pong!"

Only a violent weapon crash resounded through the valley road, shaking the eyes of the soldiers in front of them with golden flowers and blood in their ears!

"Phew! Dog, eat me with an axe! Xu Huang shook away the little handsome knife with an axe, and his face was full of hideous excitement!

Xiao Shuai's wrist was numb, but he said angrily: "Han lamb, I will definitely take your head today!" ”

As soon as the two separated slightly, they were fiercely entangled, and in the blink of an eye, it was five [***]!

"Pong, Pong, Pong"

Only heard the sound of a series of weapons colliding, Liu Yuan said in his heart that it was the right time, he turned over and got on his mount at the moment, took off the spear and held it in his hand, and roared in his mouth, saying, "Everyone, kill with me!" ”

"Kill!"

The three hundred people roared with all their might, as if to vent the fear in their hearts, and one by one they lifted their long wooden guns, and with all their strength, they rushed out of the woods with Liu Yuan and rushed to the battlefield!

"There's an ambush!"

Xiao Shuai heard the shouting of killing, his heart was shocked, he was already at a disadvantage, his hands and feet were slow, revealing flaws, and he was immediately seized by Xu Huang, and with a flick of the axe, it turned into a sharp light, and he was about to split it in half.

The little marshal was so frightened that he lay on his back and dodged the fatal blow, but the horse was cut off by an axe and fell to the ground. Xiao Shuai was frightened, so he hurriedly rolled on a leper donkey, turned over and escaped from Xu Huang's attack range, pounced forward a few steps, pulled off the horse and put a Wuhuan cavalryman on his back, turned over on the horse, pulled the reins, turned around and ran.

Xu Huang wanted to pursue, but found that less than half of the 100 people under his command were left, so he hurriedly abandoned Xiaoshuai and killed the rescue soldiers everywhere.

At this moment, Liu Yuan also killed, only to see him sweep away three or four besieging Hu cavalry with one shot, and shouted violently, "Thorn!" ”

The three hundred young men behind him turned pale, lifted the wooden gun, and stabbed out in a panic, stabbing to death more than a dozen Wuhuan people, and also stabbing to death dozens of people on his own side! Liu Yuan looked at it and felt a great pain in his heart, only to blame these young men for not being trained, and the people in the back row actually stabbed to death in the front row.

Seeing that Xu Huang was surrounded under the wall, Liu Yuan was anxious, and came up with a stupid way, and shouted in his mouth: "The spear is forward, lean on the shoulder of the front row, just rush forward with me!" ”

Liu Yuan passed all the way, and the spear turned into a curtain of light, and the Wuhuan cavalry died when they touched it, and they were injured when they were next to it; Rhubarb lowered his head, his nostrils were snorting and snorting, and a pair of horns were like divine weapons, knocking the Wuhuan people on their backs!

Liu Yuan took the lead, killing countless enemies, and the morale of the young and strong behind him was greatly boosted, although he was still afraid, he also followed Liu Yuan's footsteps, killing and injuring countless people.

Along the way, the rookie of the wooden spearmen stabbed indiscriminately with Liu Yuan's onslaught, forcing the Wuhuan Iron Cavalry to retreat straight to the entrance. The Wuhuan soldiers saw Liu Yuan and Xu Huang galloping vertically and horizontally, no one could take their lead, and Xiao Shuai was gone, and the morale plummeted at the moment, and some people had even begun to flee in all directions!

"Keep it up! Keep it up! Liu Yuan saw that Wuhuan began to retreat, and the situation gradually became clearer, he couldn't help but lift his spirits, and the spear stabbed faster, only to see the cattle passing by, and the Wuhuan cavalry fell in pieces, all with a bloody hole in their throats, and they were very terrifying.

Xu Huang rushed forward and backward in the center of the formation, and a big axe directly split the person into stumps and broken arms, and blood was sprinkled all over the air!

"Demons! Demon! ”

"They're demons, everyone run, run away!"

"The devil is coming, the devil is coming"

Finally, the Wuhuan cavalry lost its leader, and was killed by Liu Yuan and Xu Huang, and immediately fled like flowing water in the woods on both sides. Suddenly, dozens of screams came from the forest, and a loud roar was heard: "Dian Wei is here, come and die!" ”

"There is an ambush in the woods, there is an ambush!" The Wuhuan people had been frightened by the ambush, and immediately turned their horses' heads and looked at the entrance to rush away, killing each other and trampling countless people in order to escape for their lives.

"Gongming, can you still kill the enemy?" Liu Yuan looked at Xu Huang, who was panting, and shouted.

"How can't you?! Look at a certain family as the precursor of the main father! At that moment, Xu Huang shouted, lifted his spirits, and led the remnants of the troops to chase and kill the fleeing cavalry at the mouth of the valley. Liu Yuan smiled happily, then his face was blank, and he said that there were more than 100 people behind him: "The camp is ahead, if the Wuhuan people flee to that place, your parents and relatives will die under the iron hooves of the Wuhuan people!" Would you like to?! ”

"I don't want to! Unwillingly! ”

"In that case, cheer up and follow me to hunt down Hu Lu!"

"Whoa!"

Hu rode more than 300 people out of the valley road in a panic, thinking that the sea and the sky were wide, but he saw that the open space in front of him was full of log branches, potholes and stone piles, the range was very wide, and the smooth road was blocked in a mess. Although I don't know why there are so many logs and potholes here, there are fierce tigers chasing after them, and the Wuhuan people can't care about that much, so they are beating the horsewhip at the moment, and they want to escape quickly.

At this moment, Guo Jia spoke.

"Yan Liang, attack!"

When Yan Liang heard Guo Jia's order, he waved his big hand at the moment, holding a large log of more than 100 catties under his armpit, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

Five hundred sturdies behind him ran out of the woods with him, each taking a wooden javelin from his waist and throwing it into the air!

"Bang la la" like the sound of rain hitting bananas, a large area of guns went down, killing and injuring more than 100 hesitant and stunned Wuhuan people! Yan Liang smiled hideously, picked up the log and rushed over to sweep thousands of troops in one go, and three or four war horses were beaten to pieces, and they fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

In this way, Yan Liang was like a mobile fortress, he led a group of young and strong, knocked all the remaining Wuhuan soldiers off their horses, killed a group, and captured a group!

By the time Xu Huang and Liu Yuan arrived, the battle was over.

Yan Liang saw this, and immediately stepped forward to report:

"Lord Qiqi, my department has killed two hundred enemies and captured one hundred and two. How to dispose of the captives is to be announced by the Lord. ”

"Kill!" Xu Huang said with a sad face: "There are more than 100 elites in our department, and now there are only more than 30 people left, all of whom were done by these bastards, and not killing them is not enough to vent the anger in a certain heart!" ”

"What does the lord think?" Guo Jia glanced at the generals covered in blood, and said Liu Yuandao.

"Hey, it's not worth killing them, it's too cheap for them!" Liu Yuan said with a cruel smile: "Reduce these beasts to slaves, and hand over all the hard work to them in the future, if you are lazy, there are still a lot of ways to rectify people!" ”

Of course, no one objected, and besides, wouldn't it be nice to have someone do the labor for you in the future?

At that moment, Liu Yuan sent people to tie more than 100 slaves hand and foot with hemp rope and connect them together, which called people to collect the corpses, search the Wuhuan camp, and collect weapons, war horses and supplies. The bodies of the Wuhuan people were buried on the spot, and the bodies of Liu Yuan's subordinates were cremated separately and packed separately, only to be returned to the camp and handed over to their fathers and elders.

Two hours later, everything was in order, and Chen Qun stepped forward to report:

"My lord, this battle has more than 500 horses, 6,000 catties of gold, 5,000 stones of grain and grass, more than 900 scimitars, and more than 800 hard bows. Among them, 4,000 gold were our bait, and 2,000 gold were found from the Wuhuan camp; Three thousand stones of grain and grass were bait, and two thousand stones were obtained from the Wuhuan camp. ”

"We have lost more than 80 elites, and more than 200 young and strong (elites, that is, Xu Huangbu, a total of more than 100, and now there are more than 30 left; Liu Yuan led 300 young people and more than 100 left; Yan Liang is 500 young and strong, and there are more than 400 left; There were no losses from the Ministry of Pawns. ), a total of more than three hundred and fifty. ”

"As for the pension, it is up to the lord to set a standard."

After listening to Chen Qun's report, Liu Yuan couldn't help but feel gloomy. With an army of more than 1,000 people, Guo Jia's clever calculation, plus four fierce generals including himself, there were losses of nearly 400 people, which shows the strength of the Wuhuan army.

Fortunately, the thirty subordinates who had drunk Liu Yuan's essence blood and had great potential followed Huang Chang to Zhuo County, otherwise it would be a loss of one person, and it would make him heartache for a long time.

"Changwen, the sacrificed young and strong family will receive two golds for each family, and in addition, after arriving in Yuyang, they will get 50 acres of land free of charge, and they will be exempt from tax for three years!"

Chen Qun's eyes widened and said, "It's too rich, right?" The rules of the imperial court were"

"Life is priceless!" Liu Yuan interrupted Chen Islands: "It's this compensation, and I owe a lot in my heart!" It's also that I don't have a foundation, otherwise it wouldn't be too much to pay 20 or 120 gold! ”

"The Lord is merciful!"

"Okay, go back and handle this matter immediately, and don't delay. Also, I'm going to hold a memorial service tonight, and you're responsible for conveying it. ”

"Yes, my lord."
