Xu Lu saw this momentum, and expected that under this banner, it should be the commander of the Lin Hu cavalry, and judging by his behavior, he probably wanted to lead his troops to join the battle group.

Xu Lu once again asked the heralds to step up their efforts and urge the troops to retreat. He himself went to the front line and shouted to his subordinates: "All the soldiers obey the order, hurry up and evacuate the battlefield, don't care about anything, you must retreat in time." ”

The soldiers of the Hezong army had already heard the sound of gold, and most of them had already broken away from contact with the Linhu people, leaving only some sergeants who were unwilling to give up, and were still entangled with the Linhu cavalry. Later, they heard Xu Lu's constant shouting, and they all made a false move, turned around and left.

When the Linhu cavalry saw that their opponents were showing weakness, they were reluctant to stop, so most of them followed closely behind the combined column army and pursued forward with victory.

However, after the battle just now, the Lin Hu cavalry also knew that the opponent could not be defeated casually, so they did not dare to rush forward with a small group of troops without authorization, for fear that they would be attacked by the sudden counterattack of the combined column army and be eaten by the vanguard in one fell swoop.

The commander of the wolf cavalry, Yi Hu, originally wanted to take advantage of the battle in the southeast direction to encircle the 10,000 combined columns from both sides, but before his people arrived, those combined columns actually withdrew first, and Yihu pounced.

He looked up at the top of the hill and found that there was no sound there, as if it had been emptied. Ihu then inquired about the cavalry who had just participated in the battle, and only then did he learn that the enemy besieged on the high post had already left the hill and fled back to his own camp in the chaotic battle just now.

Yi was so angry that his hair stood on end, and he thought to himself: "This is really two big losses, one is that the cavalry in the southeast direction has been attacked and harassed by the combined column, and the other is to let the people above the high post escape. ”

Yi Hu always thought that the crown prince of Zhao might be above Gao Gang, so he launched three consecutive rounds of attacks on Gao Gang regardless of the cost. The "bird" that I thought I had in my hands was actually flown away by it. Yi was so depressed that he regretted that he had been half a beat slower just now and did not arrive at the battlefield in time.

But it's no wonder, because Du Qing and others rushed down from the high post, condescending, of course, the progress was faster, and Du Qing's idea was very decisive and resolute, and he also seized the opportunity. Ihu was in a state of rest, temporarily responding to a sudden attack, and of course he wouldn't come so quickly.

However, how could Yi Hu be willing to suffer such two big losses, he scolded fiercely: "These cunning and treacherous Central Plains barbarians are angry with me!" ”

He resolutely gave the order to pursue, and shouted: "All the soldiers of the wolf cavalry, closely pursue the fleeing enemy, and do not give them a chance to breathe." Our Lin Hu cavalry is fast, now is the time to show your skills. ”

With Yi Hu's order, the less than 20,000 Lin Jackal cavalry urgently launched again, they were still led by the generals of their respective formations, and they were violently pursuing in the direction of the retreat of the combined column army led by Xu Lu.

In the end, it was still the horses of the Lin Hu people, the retreating army led by Xu Lu was chased by the Lin Hu army in less than half an hour, Xu Lu himself was behind the tail hall of the team, he kept looking behind, judging the distance between the Lin Hu cavalry and his army.

When he saw that the Lin Hu cavalry formation rushing in front was less than fifty feet away from him, he felt that the situation was extremely critical. This group of Linhu cavalry was different from the group in the battle just now, they were more numerous, and they came prepared.

Xu Lu knew that with the strength of the Lin Hu people, once his subordinates were caught up by them, it would be difficult for them to survive. Xu Lu couldn't help urging his subordinates to run quickly, no matter what the formation, it was a victory to be able to retreat.

When he looked forward, he found that the Panlong Plateau was also close in front of him, and the vanguard troops, under the leadership of Du Qing, had already climbed over the tall ridge. Because the beam is more than 30 zhang high, stretching for more than 20 miles, the vanguard army turned over the beam and disappeared behind the Panlong Plateau.

Xu Lu saw that the Lin Jackal cavalry was rampaging and was chasing after him, and he hurriedly shouted to the more than 1,000 sergeants who had not yet crossed the ridge: "Don't just rush forward, everyone scatters to both sides, as long as you can turn over the beam, it will be a victory!" ”

He shouted as he took the lead in bringing his horse to the right side, dodging the wolf cavalry's positive collision. At this time, the sergeants of the joint column who had not yet crossed the ridge also learned Xu Lu and scattered on the ridge, striving to turn over as soon as possible.

The pursuit formation of the wolf cavalry army was originally chasing along the official road, but under the Panlong Plateau, the target of the pursuit suddenly dispersed, and they didn't know what to do for a while, and they didn't know whether to disperse to chase the "prey" in the same way, or still maintain the formation of the formation, and continued to rush forward through the ridge.

Commander Ihu had not yet arrived at the bottom of the hill, and the general of the vanguard of the wolf cavalry deliberately waited for him for a moment to ask for instructions on how to act.

However, just as they paused for a moment, suddenly tens of thousands of soldiers appeared from behind the beams, each armed with strong bows and crossbows, and launched a crossbow attack that was more dense than raindrops towards the troops of the wolf cavalry.

The transition between attack and defense was so sudden that it was twice as fast as a bird flying through the treetops. How could the Lin Jackal cavalry expect that behind the Panlong Plateau, there would be a large number of soldiers and soldiers in full gear who were ready to attack, they were all ready to attack, and once they launched an attack, that kind of formation would be terrifying.

Tens of thousands of wolf cavalry soldiers were all under the beams of the Panlong Plateau, and the condescending crossbow arrow attacks caught them off guard, and there was nowhere to hide. The crossbow arrows of the combined column army seemed to be like a shower, and in less than a moment, they almost covered the wolf cavalry under the beam.

The wolf cavalry of the Ringhu people had been attacked with the fiercest attack they had ever received, and the attack came so suddenly, as if it were a storm.

Under the heavy blow, the wolf cavalry almost waited for the prey to be slaughtered, in the past, they generally chased and teased the opponent as prey, but now they have fallen, and the wolf cavalry has no ability to fight back.

The attack was ten times more violent than the previous one on Dongyang Slope, and the density of the crossbow bolts continued unabated for some time because of the adequate preparation. The formation of five or six thousand wolf cavalry that rushed ahead was the most unfortunate, all of them were swept to the ground by the rain of arrows, and the war horses also roared and rushed wildly.

Yi Hu was at the end of the wolf cavalry, but his position was also affected by the rain of arrows, and in his hurry, he quickly turned his horse's head and retreated out of the range of the rain of arrows.

Yi Hu also felt particularly sorry for his cavalry, and as soon as he felt safe, he turned his horse's head and shouted to the cavalry of the wolf cavalry: "Quickly retreat, find a safe place." Don't panic, everyone, hold your ground, the despicable Central Plains people only have this trick of sneak attack. As long as we hold on, we will kill again in a while to get revenge! ”

At this time, Yi Hu hated the attacking army so much that his eyes almost erupted with fire, and he thought to himself: "This rain of arrows must be dodged, wait for a while your offensive weakens, see that my Lin Wolf cavalry does not kill the past, and eats your flesh raw." ”

Thinking in his heart, he cried out with a whimper, "It's so hateful, you hate me!" ”

At this time, looking at the less than 20,000 cavalry who were pursuing, there were probably less than 10,000 left, and everyone was panicked, heartbroken, and scattered. Yi Hu cheered everyone up: "Soldiers of the Wolf Cavalry, we must take revenge!" ”

But where could the cavalry, who had just escaped from the dead position, regain their confidence in a short time, so that almost no one answered Ihu's shouting.

With the retreat of the Linhu cavalry, the rain of arrows finally thinned out, leaving a patch of corpses of the Linhu cavalry and war horses on the Panlong Plateau, and the scene was terrible.

This was an unprecedented defeat for the Lyrian cavalry, and the arrogance of the invincible was knocked out in just a quarter of an hour, like a flame on a candle, which was still burning just now, and was immediately ruthlessly extinguished.

Yi Hu just wanted to gather the team, his mind was full of thoughts of revenge at the moment, and the mood of revenge was extremely strong. He planned to redeploy the remaining troops, and after detouring back to the Beaulongyuan from both sides, he must give the most severe punishment to the despicable sneak attackers hiding behind the ridge.

Ihu summoned the two remaining heralds who had escaped from the brink of death, and prepared to send them separately to give them a roundabout mission.

However, before he could give the battle order, General Qu Xin, the commander of the joint column, launched a second round of attacks. Coincidentally, the offensive line he chose was also on the two wings.

Qu Xin expected that the Linhu cavalry had passed through the arrow array attack in front of the Panlong Plateau, and he was so frightened that he would never dare to charge from the front again, so he dispatched 10,000 troops each lying in ambush on both sides of the ridge and charged the remaining Linhu cavalry.

Yi Hu thought that his opponent was just ambushing in the front, and he thought that there were more men and horses on both sides, and before the power of the rain of arrows had completely dissipated, he rushed down from the high beam.

At this time, the snare drum of the joint column army suddenly sounded, and it beat very quickly, and the sound was very high and deafening. The soldiers were also shouting and killing.

Seeing this, Yi suddenly said in his heart: "It's not good, our army is off!" He regretted that he had not learned his lesson immediately, and after encountering a rain of arrows, he hurriedly retreated his army far away, and even thought of counterattacking in a roundabout way.

The remnants of the wolf cavalry of Ihu lost the best opportunity to evacuate, so when the combined column army rushed from both flanks, the camp of the wolf cavalry was a pot of porridge, and everyone was terrified, and only wanted to get out of this death trap as soon as possible.

However, the more anxious and flustered they are, the harder it is for them to slip away quickly. In an instant, the combined column army that rushed down from both flanks besieged most of the remnants of the wolf cavalry.
