Chapter 4: Shoot the Enemy Chieftain
The smoke and dust are rolling, the sky is dark, and it seems to be chaotic a few feet away, and it is not clear to see. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Surrounded by the guards, Yu Fuluo finally came to the front of the horse team, and before he reached the front, he was stunned by the scene in front of him, only to see that there was a horse trap area more than ten zhang wide here, and there was nothing surprising about the horse pit, but the pit was almost covered with corpses inside and outside the pit, and there were people and horses, all of which belonged to his Hun cavalry.
Yu Fuluo was stunned, how did such a simple trap make his elite cavalry suffer heavy casualties? After being reminded by his guards, he found that except for a few cavalrymen who were buried in the horse pit, most of the rest were killed by arrows. The trap only played a role in slowing down the speed of the cavalry and increased the time for the Yangzhou soldiers to shoot arrows.
"Not good!" Yuvro finally realized something, but at this time he realized the helplessness of the cavalry at the head before, it was impossible for him to retreat or even stop, and the cavalry behind him were squeezing him forward.
Yu Fuluo was in a hurry, if he continued like this, he would also become the head, and it could be imagined from the wailing sound from the front that the enemy's crossbow arrows were still harvesting the lives of the Hun cavalry. But he didn't know how far he had to go before he could rush into the Yangzhou army's military formation, and according to the current situation, he was afraid that he might not be able to approach the enemy formation if the whole army was wiped out.
"Quick, blow the trumpet and retreat!" Yuvro finally gave the right military order.
The unique horn sound of the Huns sounded, penetrating the entire battlefield, and the Hun cavalry behind finally reacted and began to slow down their horses.
Yuvro and his guards were about to turn their horses and turn back, but it was too late, and in such a short time they had already advanced a few feet further, and there was no more cover in front of them.
As the sound of "woo-woo" broke through the air, he felt his body fly away from the horse's back.
It's a crossbow, such a powerful crossbow!
Yu Furo looked down and saw several bubbling blood holes in his chest, and the crossbow arrows had already come out of his body, and his ancestral armor had not been able to leave them.
"Ahh At that moment, he seemed to see the prairie, saw the throne he had always dreamed of, and finally the bloody picture of his mount and guards struggling in the rain of arrows.
"King, King!" The Hun cavalry behind saw Yu Fuluo's arrow fall off his horse, and couldn't help shouting, and was ready to step forward to snatch Yu Fuluo's body, but the next moment he was also taken away by the crossbow arrow.
The fear of death spread rapidly, and the Hun cavalry could not afford to have a second thought except to flee for their lives.
"Lord, the Huns are beginning to retreat!"
On the high post in the rear, there were scouts who observed the battle situation and reported to Yuan Shu.
"The Hu people are really unreliable, the slaves who are greedy for life and afraid of death dare to retreat privately!" After Yuan Shu finished scolding, he ordered again, "Yang Feng, the leading department will go to see what is going on with the Huns, and by the way, take it." ”
Yang Fengyuan was a general of the Baibo Rebellion, who had attached himself to Yuan Shao together with Hanoi Zhang Yang and Yu Fuluo, fought against Dong Zhuo, and later rebelled against Yuan Shao, and attacked Cao Cao with the Black Mountain Army.
Yang Feng's department and Yu Fuluo's department were at the same time to take refuge in Yuan Shu, and now Yu Fuluo's Hun cavalry retreated on their own, and Yang Feng was sent out by Yuan Shu, which was somewhat implicated.
However, under the eaves, Yang Feng did not dare to disobey, and he rushed forward with his two thousand or so people. Don't look at him, these people are all born in thieves, but when they move to the north and south, they have experienced a lot of battles, almost all of them are eliminated elite soldiers, and nearly half of them are cavalry, so Yang Feng is not afraid of encountering vicious battles.
The smoke and dust in front of him are getting bigger and bigger, and Yang Feng is getting closer and closer to the battlefield. This is a large group of Hun cavalry out of the smoke and dust, they panicked, only to run to the rear, Yang Feng had no time to stop, so he had to let them flee to the rear.
As soon as this batch was conceded, another batch came out, and there were more than just now, and there were thousands of cavalry. Yang Feng was very surprised, he knew this Hun cavalry very well, a typical elite Hu cavalry, skilled in cavalry and archery, and strong in impact, how could they be defeated so quickly?
But at this time, Yang Feng could no longer find out the reason, because the number of defeated and fleeing cavalry was too large, and he did not choose the direction, and his troops were all wrapped in and retreated to the rear.
Yang Feng was helpless, and while restraining the troops from retreating, he was looking for acquaintances in the Xiongnu ranks. Fortunately, Yang Feng's banner was more obvious, and after a while, more than ten Hun squads of horsemen came over, and the young man Yang Feng at the head knew that it was Liu Bao, the son of Yu Fuluo.
As soon as Liu Bao approached Yang Feng, he cried and mourned: "General Yang, my father is gone, and even his body was snatched away by Yangzhou thieves!" ”
Yang Feng was shocked when he heard this, and said in his heart that it was no wonder that the Hun cavalry seemed to have lost their souls, and it turned out that the main general Yu Fuluo was killed. This Yu Fu Luo is a single Yu of the Southern Huns in exile, who originally came to the Central Plains to ask for help, but gradually became a thief and lost his life, which is really sad!
But now is not the time to sigh, Yang Feng said in a deep voice: "The little prince mourns." Now it is imperative to restrain the subordinates. ”
"But I can't help it! The herald is dead, and I can't give orders. Liu Bao replied.
The Hun soldiers all used horns to give orders, and the heralds were usually by the side of the main general, and now the heralds were killed with Yu Fuluo, and even the horns were lost, so they really couldn't give orders.
Yang Feng is helpless, there are so many people, it's messy, and it definitely won't work by shouting.
"General, the troops are too close to the main formation, and the flags on the formation are for us to bypass, and we must not rush into the main formation!" Suddenly, there was a kiss calling Yang Feng.
Yang Feng looked up and saw that this was really the case, he hurriedly called out to Liu Bao: "Quickly follow me out of the defeated army." ”
"But-" Liu Bao looked at the Hun cavalry and hesitated, Yang Feng hurriedly said: "I can't take care of them, if I get closer, the main formation will release arrows!" ”
Liu Bao had no choice but to take his squad to follow Yang Feng on a detour, and as soon as they broke away from the defeated fleeing team, countless arrows were fired at the Hun cavalry. It is also strange that these Huns could not understand the flag language of the Han people, but they were lucky, hoping to escape behind the military formation as soon as possible, but they were stopped and killed because they collided with the main formation.
The Hun cavalry had already lost most of it, and now they didn't know how much they were shot by Yuan Shujun, Liu Bao looked at his heart like a knife, this is all his wealth, his Lao Tzu is dead, he should inherit it.
At this time, Yang Feng saw the banner that Yuan Shu had unfurled, and asked Liu Bao: "Little prince, the right general ordered me to block the pursuing soldiers, are you with me?" ”
"Good!" Liu Bao looked at Yang Feng with a bitter face, "General Yang, my father and you are like brothers, you have to help me and avenge my father!" ”
"I'll stop the enemy soldiers first, and you'll find a way to gather all the old troops of the Great King, and then support me!" Yang Feng explained and returned the same way with his department.
Yang Feng soon saw the pursuers, but he couldn't cry or laugh for a while, he thought that the main force of the Yangzhou army was following behind, how did he know that there were only about five hundred cavalry, and if the thousands of Hun cavalry who fled were assembled, it would be enough to resist, right?
It was Yue Fei who was pursuing, and he commanded the Divine Arm Archers to shoot the Hun cavalry until they fled, and then followed with the five hundred cavalry in the Beiwei army.
After Yue Fei saw Yang Feng's troops, he didn't bother to pay attention to the fleeing Hun stragglers, but rushed towards Yang Feng with his troops.
"Xu Huang, go up and block this cavalry for me!" Yang Feng ordered.
