On the sixth day of September, in the afternoon, the dog head boored. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The coalition of horse thieves roared and bared their fangs, and quickly surrounded the merchant team, which quickly gathered together after the scouts called the police, and formed a dense and large defensive battle formation with livestock, wagons, and escorts.

The leaders of the horse thieves were dismissive of this behemoth battle formation. Gao Hu, Di Luo Ba's Nest and Red Bean's Iron Coats each led one and attacked from the west, north, and south at the same time, leaving only the east side unattacked. To the east, close to the swamp, if the coalition of horse thieves broke through the battle formation of the merchant army, the merchants would have to retreat in the direction of the swamp, so they would be in danger and would be desperate for their own survival.

At the same time, Huyanjian and Jingjiang Liujinfei led a group of subordinates, holding high the banner of the Turks, pretending to be the army of the Turks, and delaying and blocking the rebels in the south.

The reason why Jingjiang Liujin Fei joined the containment team was that he took the initiative to put it forward, the reason was that he was active in the Huaihuang area, and he was more or less familiar with these merchants, and most of those merchants with Han surnames had a background in the Great Wall. It just so happened that Chi Xiaodou Tieyi and others were not at ease with Hu Yanjian, worried that he would escape or stab him in the back, and now Jingjiang Liujin Fei took the initiative to take on the task of containment with Hu Yanjian, which was in the hands of Chi Xiaodou Tieyi and others. With Jingjiang Liujin Fei's monitoring of Hu Yanjian, the possibility of containing accidents along the way has been greatly reduced.

The horse thieves attacked very sharply, first of all, driving away tens of thousands of livestock deployed by the merchants in the outermost part of the battle array.

Most of the horse thieves are the descendants of Xianbei and other captives who grew up on horseback, not only are they skilled in bowing horses, they have rich experience in killing people and goods, and they are also experts in grazing, so it is easy to "squeeze" a way out of the dense livestock that cannot be seen at a glance, it is too simple, but the key to the problem is not to "squeeze" a road, but to slow down quickly because of the "squeeze" road, resulting in the horse thieves becoming the "live target" of the opponent and allowing them to be slaughtered.

However, the horse thieves were undaunted, and scoffed at the power of the merchants' guards, turning their eyes on nothing, swaggering as they drove their cattle and approached the chariots, without even raising their protective shields.

Most of the people in the desert who are superior in force are all warriors in the tribe, who have undertaken the heavy responsibility of protecting the tribe and foreign conquests, and are treated well in the tribe, and will not go to be the escort of merchants in order to survive. Although the Shangjia's guards are paid higher, they are also risky, they are hard and have no life support, they are not free, and their status is also very low, so many strong people who are exiled in the desert for various reasons would rather fall into the grass than be a guard for Shangjia. The merchants on the desert are mainly Lite people, commonly known as Hujia, and Hujia is mainly based on the nobles with the surname Zhaowu Jiu, so most of the guards of the Hujia caravan are mainly family children, family slaves and civilians with the same surname Lite, and their combat effectiveness is limited, and they can only deal with some small groups of horse thieves.

The main target of the desert horse thieves is these Huja, and they frequently fight with these Rites, and they are too familiar with each other. After all, the Turks want to maintain the stability of the desert and promote the development of the Turkic Khanate, and all kinds of tribes must also survive and develop, and they are inseparable from Huja and Huiyi, if the horse thieves are too rampant, it seriously affects the stability of the desert and the development of various tribes, and the consequences can be imagined, so both Turkic people and tribes actively protect Huja and Huiyi, and vigorously crack down on horse thieves, as long as there is a large number of horse thieves, they will inevitably be killed. And this is the reason why the desert horse thief is updated very quickly and never becomes a threat.

This time, there are many merchants and guards, but the horse thieves also gather and have a great advantage, because the Middle-earth rebels are chasing from behind, and the merchants are suffering from the enemy, once the horse thieves are the first to do it, they will run away, and the merchants will fall into chaos, and finally they will inevitably face the killing and looting of the Middle-earth rebels, so the merchants are panicked, everyone is in danger, and the morale is much weaker alone.

The horse thieves attacked smoothly and quickly broke through the first line of defense composed of tens of thousands of livestock, although the arrows on the Shangjia side were raining down, but the number of archers was limited, the level was not high, the range of the horn bow was not far, and the arrow array was not threatening, so it did not play a lethal role at all.

This greatly fueled the arrogance of the horse thieves, their confidence skyrocketed, and one by one their morale was like a rainbow, beating the horses and galloping wildly, and rushing directly to the chariot formation.

The width and length of the formation exceeded the horse thieves' expectations. There are too many merchants this time, there are too many carriages, thousands of carriages are dense? The linen is arranged vertically and horizontally, and its sturdiness and lethality are greatly increased, and it is simply unrealistic for horse thieves to try to open a passage by moving a carriage, and they must be overwhelmed by the arrows that are close at hand, and it is difficult to advance an inch.

However, what the horse thieves saw was not danger, but the property piled up in the center of the cart array, all kinds of materials were piled up, and the temptation was so great that the horse thieves directly ignored the danger, screamed excitedly, flew off their horses, or climbed over the carriage with shields, or crawled forward from under the carriage. At this moment, they only have property in their eyes, the Buddha blocks and kills the Buddha, the gods block and kills the gods, and any obstacle will be destroyed by them crazy.

In the center of the car array, on a simple wooden platform made of horse-drawn carriages, Li Fengyun stood in the wind, his white hair fluttering, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and his eyes showed a mocking color.

"It's too easy." Andriol who was standing beside Li Fengyun stroked his beard and smiled, "These thieves are so stupid that they have thrown themselves into the net, and they don't know that they are dying. ”

"If you have a mind or not, of course you can catch it." Li Fengyun said with a smile, "People die for money, birds die for food, if you don't have these things, it is more difficult to trap them and let them fall into the net." ”

Andriol glanced at him and teased, "If I had calculated you in the same way, would you have fallen into the trap like they did?" ”

"Of course, I'll fall for it, and I'll fall into the trap because I need it." Li Fengyun turned his head to look at Andriol and pursed his lips contemptuously, "But, can you calculate me?" ”

Andriol sneered, and secretly slandered himself, I am also a bad year, I met you in Huaihuang, and I fell into the net. Andriol didn't want to rush to the front line, but Li Fengyun had to pull him by his side, as well as Jian Bo and more than a dozen wealthy merchants, all of whom were forcibly "kidnapped" by Li Fengyun into the merchant army, on the grounds that they were needed to appease the panic of the horsemen, coachmen and herders, in fact, they were worried that they would run away, and he wanted to personally hold them hostage and coerce them to follow the alliance army to attack Anzhou, forcing them to fulfill their promises to provide the necessary support for this attack.

The three horse thieves all rushed into the car formation, and they were all met with strong resistance from the guards. The horse thieves rushed forward in a swarm, fighting separately, unorganized, and messy, but under the strong stimulation of the property in front of them, one by one, the blood was boiling, the killing sound was like thunder, the morale was like a rainbow, and they attacked desperately, while the guards were intensively arrayed, blocking and killing layer by layer, swearing not to retreat, and the battle situation quickly fell into a stalemate.

"How long are you going to fight?" Andriol couldn't help it, and shouted at Li Fengyun, "If you continue to fight like this, these thieves will be red-eyed, and the more they fight, the more crazy they become, don't die, your people will have casualties, and then you will lose more than you gain." ”

Li Fengyun smiled and bowed, made a gesture to the banner soldiers under the wooden platform, and issued an attack command.

The drums of war beat, the horns sound, and the tide of battle changes abruptly.

The car formation suddenly cracked, and the soldiers of the three-way alliance, who had already been ready to go, rushed out of the car formation, surrounded the three-way horse thieves from three directions, cut off the horse thieves' retreat with lightning speed, controlled the horse thieves left outside the car formation, completed the encirclement, and caught the turtle in the urn.

The three-way horse thief realized that things were in trouble, this time it was dangerous, the property in front of him was good, within reach, at his fingertips, but he also had to enjoy his life, his life was gone, what was the point of grabbing more property? So some people began to turn around and break through, but there are still some people who are greedy for profit, lose their minds under the temptation of wealth, kill red eyes, and still attack wildly. As a result, the forces were scattered, those who broke through could not be killed, and the attack was difficult to advance an inch, and the last line of escape was lost in vain.

The trapped beasts are still fighting, not to mention these horse thieves and thieves who lick blood with their knives? At this moment, they still think that their opponent is Shang Jia, and it is Shang Jia's guards who are fighting with them, and the reason why they are in the middle of the plan is just to carelessly underestimate the enemy and underestimate the opponent, and now although they are surrounded, they still have the confidence to kill out.

The sun is setting, dusk has arrived, and Li Fengyun doesn't want to waste any more time. This is a battle without suspense, the alliance thousands of tigers, Fengyun elite used the battle array to trap more than a thousand abandoned horse thieves to fight, there is no challenge at all, once the fight is out of control, the alliance soldiers face the fierce horse thieves, the killer is painful, the casualties are heavy, Li Fengyun is too late to cry.

The flag was raised again, the big horn sounded again, and the alliance soldiers finally let out an earth-shattering roar, "Disarm and don't kill!" ”

The horse thieves were shocked, and the pure sound of Middle-earth echoed in their ears, making them suddenly realize that this was a trap, a trap, and their opponent was not a merchant at all, but an army of Middle-earth.

It was only at this moment that they suddenly woke up, and only then did they realize that all their previous doubts had been answered, no wonder this merchant team was able to successfully break through with all their belongings, including tens of thousands of livestock, no wonder they could use local materials, because of the ugliness, skillfully and quickly set up a defensive battle formation, it turned out that the truth was here.

What was the result of being caught by the Middle-earthers? Beheaded, all the horse thieves and robbers caught by the Middle-earthers were beheaded, and none of them were spared, so the horse thieves will not surrender, surrender is also death, it is better to fight to the death, and pull a cushion before dying. The three-way horse thief is cornered, and there is no choice but to fight to the death.

The sunset is like blood. The battlefield was deadly silent, and the two sides were tense and on the verge of breaking out.

Gao Hu's face is not afraid, death will come sooner or later, it doesn't matter if it's a day earlier or a day later. He raised the war knife in his hand, raised his head, and breathed through the dantian, and was about to shout wildly, leading his brothers to fight to the death, when he heard a sudden shout from the opposite side, "Brother Tiger, don't come to harm!" ”

Gao Hu raised his eyes, black armor and white hair, extremely eye-catching, and then he saw a familiar face, a person he would never forget until he died.
