Chapter 117: Defeating the Cavalry
"Plop ......"
A burning tree fell down with a bang, blocking the middle of the road.
"Sigh the law ......"
The beggar on the crotch of the mount raised its head and neighed, and retreated again and again, and the beggar on the horseback was also at a loss, and suddenly looked back, only to see that the entire valley behind him had become a burning hell, and in the thick smoke and raging fire, there was a faint cavalry wearing flames, running and wailing.
The beggar screamed, bypassed the burning tree, came to the wider area at the entrance, and turned back with palpitations, only to see the valley full of smoke and flames, and the wailing and screaming of the soldiers were no longer heard. There were constantly wolf-looking soldiers running out of the billowing smoke, most of them with scorched faces and lichens and robes with fire.
The soldiers who escaped from the fire area rolled to the ground in a hurry, or threw each other at the flames, but they all had frightened expressions on their faces.
After glancing at it, there were only three or four hundred soldiers who came here, and the remaining three thousand or so were all trapped in the fire and hell.
"My lord, we have more than 3,500 soldiers trapped in the valley fire, and the way out has been blocked, what should we do?" A dark-faced centurion said in fear.
The beggar had a gloomy expression, there was no way out in front of him, and there were pursuers in the back, there was no way out, not to mention, even if he escaped, what would happen to him? Four thousand warriors perished overnight, and they themselves could not escape death.
With a gloomy sigh, the beggar pulled out his scimitar and wiped it on his neck, and the centurion beside him hurriedly stopped him, but it was too late, and the blood gushing out of the beggar's neck splashed his face.
"Your Excellen......cy," the centurion fell to his knees weakly, crying in a low voice.
"Adults are dead......
"What should we do?"
The centurion wiped his tears, stood up, and howled bitterly: "Warriors of the Yan people, we have fought with the Yan army, pick up your bows and arrows, and counterattack the Yan army on the mountain. ”
"Spelled ......"
"Spelled ......"
"Spelled ......"
The remaining 400 or so people waved the mutilated weapons in their hands and wailed bitterly.
"Are you going to fight hard?" Zhao Xunsen, who was standing on the cliff, smiled and said coldly. In the dark eyes, two cold eyes shot out, and Zhao Xun pulled out a sharp three-edged throwing gun from behind him.
"Throw the gun and prepare to ......," Zhao Xun shouted coldly.
"Kill ......"
Zhao Xun shouted, and threw the gun in his hand viciously forward, and the heavy gun trembled. With a "buzzing" trill, a strange trajectory was drawn in the air in an instant, and he went straight to the centurion who stood like a mountain under the mountain.
"Buzz ......"
In the continuous trill, nearly a thousand throwing spears swept into the air in an instant, drawing a graceful arc in the air from the mountain, and fell coldly towards the Ya people......
"Poof"
The centurion slashed out, intending to block the shot and throw the spear, but the spear was too fast, and the cold light flashed through his body, and although the knife he struggled to slash out hit the spear, it could only cut the tail of the spear, and the sharp blade of the spear pierced his body in an instant, straight through the back.
"Ah......h
The centurion looked down at his chest, his eyes showing endless desolation, and opened his mouth to say something.
"Buzz ......" another throwing gun swept into the air.
"Poof......
In a flash of cold light, the sharp spear stabbed viciously into the chest of the centurion, and the centurion's body was like hitting a galloping horse, and then it was nailed to the ground.
"Puff puff ......"
Nearly a thousand spears rained down, and before the remaining four hundred soldiers could react, they had already been pierced and nailed deep to the earth, and the red blood gushed out from the bodies of these soldiers, and it didn't take long to dye the earth red.
"Report ...... No...... Oh no, General Qimu was trapped in the valley by the Yan army, and the situation has not yet been known. "Less than ten miles away from the mountain road in the middle of the begging wood, the eldest prince Chishu and Dutong Tiele Zahe were rushing there with more than 5,000 people.
"What? What's going on? Tielezahe was taken aback when he heard this, and when he sent his troops, he repeatedly explained that he had to beg to be careful, how could he still be tricked.
Tanma replied: "My subordinates don't know, I only know that Lord Qimu is chasing after the Long Xiang army, and after entering the mountain road, the back road has been blocked, and we can't cross the ......" Before he finished speaking, he saw someone exclaiming.
"Look, what's going on over there?"
"Smoke in the sky! It must be on fire. ”
"On fire? That's amazing......"
Tielezahe also saw the black clouds rising from the ground in the western sky, and asked urgently, "Is the beggar going in which direction?" ”
Tanma turned his head to look, swallowed his saliva and replied, "Yes, it's really ...... in that direction"
Hearing this, Tielezahe's eyes darkened, and he muttered to himself: "It's over, it's over, it's over, my four thousand cavalry!" ”
Chishu had a gloomy face, his eyes were burning and staring at the place where the smoke was coming from in the west, and he said coldly for a while: "The whole army is advancing at full speed, let's go and have a look!" ”
On the top of the valley, looking at the wailing soldiers, Zhao Xun was unmoved, the people of Yan drove the people of Yan Kingdom twice to take the lead, and Zhao Xun had already had murderous intent.
"My lord, I'm afraid that this fire will take two or three days to be completely extinguished, it's a pity that there are more than 4,000 fine war horses below, if it reaches our hands, it will be great." Zhao Ning sighed.
Zhao Xun also sighed: "Yes, it's a pity for these war horses, but they can destroy four thousand cavalry, not to mention four thousand war horses, even ten thousand war horses, and it's worth giving up." ”
"Commander Zhao, this battle is really happy, thinking of a few days ago, I was aggrieved, but I didn't expect that today I would easily kill four thousand cavalry. Commander Zhao, I'm really convinced this time! Xue Lei walked over and said seriously. The next few lieutenants and adjutant generals, Zhang Meng, also looked at Zhao Xun with admiration on their faces.
Zhao Xun said lightly: "This is nothing, it's just that with the help of the people themselves, they didn't expect that only three or four thousand people would ambush them." "Actually, the people didn't expect them to have 5,000 people here, they only thought that there were less than 3,000.
Xue Lei shook his head and said: "You can't write like this, although I, Xue, have also fought for a few years, but I have almost never seen such a happy one today, and there are very few soldiers like Commander Zhao." ”
Zhao Xun said with a smile: "Those who are good at fighting have no outstanding achievements, and those who are good at doctors have no brilliant name." There are many reasons why I can win this battle, but the danger of victory is not worthy of praise. ”
"Then what should we do under Zhao's leadership? Retreat? Zhang Meng asked.
Zhao Xun said: "Of course it is not possible to go like this, we are still one hundred and thirty miles away from Yanzhou City, but half of the soldiers do not have war horses, how can we escape the pursuit of the angry Yan cavalry." ”
"Then why don't we go back to Yanzhou City for the time being? Entering the mountain, the terrain here is more familiar to us than the people of the Spirit. Someone said.
"If you don't return to Yanzhou City, then these nearly 10,000 cavalry will be killed in Yanzhou City, and Yanzhou City, which is already difficult to defend, will be completely unbearable, without Yanzhou City, how long can we stay in Yanzhou Mansion?" After the annihilation of these 4,000 people, except for more than 1,000 people, the southern battalion was basically gone, but there were still nearly 10,000 cavalry in the eastern battalion of the Ya people.
"So what are we going to do? Fight them to the death here? ”
Zhao asked: "Here, they will not fight us to the death, once they can't fight for a long time, this kind of terrain that is unfavorable to them, they will not waste time here, directly capture Yanzhou City, of course, it is more likely that we will be starved to death here." ”
Everyone was silent, yes, now they are fleeing, except for the dry food they have with them, which is only enough for a day or two, there is no food to use. Once trapped, it will be the same as the Zhumaping station, or even worse than the Zhumaping, after all, there is still a comfortable resting place there, but there is nothing here.
Zhao Xun glanced at the silent people, and laughed: "Okay, you don't have to worry, maybe there will be some changes, now, let's go to the exit to welcome these five thousand new cavalry." ”
