Chapter 12: First Encounter

The team walked for two days, the lake became the river water, the bow water is not very deep, now it is about one person deep, the river is not wide, about 20 zhang, both sides of the river are fertile grassland, excellent pasture. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Wu Kui looked at the meadows that had just returned to green on both sides, and on both sides of the river were low hills, rolling and undulating, and there was no edge in sight. The most seen in the mountains and fields is actually the cuckoo, which is fiery red, and the whole earth is like burning.

Wu Kui sighed that spring is coming, but the spring here is too short, maybe it will be summer in a few days.

Wu Kui looked at the river, the green reeds on both sides of the river were swaying in the breeze, one by one, one by one, close together, swaying with the spring breeze.

On the river in the middle of the reeds, the sailing ships moved very fast, and although they were against the current, they were not at all slower than the cavalry on the shore. Wu Kui sighed secretly in his heart, there are still more ships and supplies, how many carriages can compare to a ship. The horse is very squeamish, like a noble lady, and like a sailboat, fast and trouble-free.

Wu Kuizheng sighed, and suddenly, a black horse came from the front. Running in front of Wu Kui, the man on the horse strangled the war horse with both hands, and the front hooves of the war horse soared into the air, and with a neigh, he slowly stopped.

The person on the horse jumped down, and Wu Kui saw that it was his own spy. The spy Shi Li said: "Report to Commander Wu, there are more than 1,000 Huns in front, and they are coming to our department, about 20 miles away from here. ā€

Wu Kui immediately ordered: "The whole army stops advancing and meets the enemy on the spot." ā€

Wu Kui thought that he had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and the 1,000 Huns seemed a little strange. Is it to lure the enemy?

He is here in Lianghu City, and the main guard is the people of the Huns, although he has never fought, he still has a little understanding of the tactics of the Huns.

The best thing the Huns are at is the tactics of luring the enemy and ambushing, first hit you, and then run away, as soon as you chase, you will enter his encirclement, let him eat you whole.

Wu Kui knew his strength, thought about it, and ordered a company of cloud thunder soldiers to be lit, and put some cloud thunder on the road, so that those Huns knew that they were powerful.

The cloud thunder soldiers took the cloud thunder and rode their war horses to the west. Wu Kui also ordered the archers of the first battalion and the sabre team of the first battalion to meet behind.

Wu Kui himself rode to a nearby hillside and quietly looked at the grass in front of him.

The cloud thunder soldiers walked forward for 5 miles, each dismounted, put the cloud thunder on the ground, and arranged it in a long row, this kind of cloud thunder twist is very long.

The cloud thunder soldiers had just placed the cloud thunder, and at this time, they saw dust in the distance, and the Hun cavalry had already appeared in everyone's field of vision. The cavalry came quickly, and he could see the Huns' costume clearly. I saw that on the horses, one by one the warriors were scattered, the armor of the whole body, under the sun, it was extraordinarily dazzling, these Huns, some of them wielded scimitars, their legs tightly clamped the horse's belly, and some of them had ropes on their feet to fix themselves on the horse like a saddle, and some of them held bows and arrows in their hands, and came to the cloud and thunder soldiers in front.

The Yunlei soldiers lit the twist, beat the horses and ran back, and the Hun cavalry saw that there were several rows of cloth bags on the road in front of them, and the cloth bags were not very big, one foot square, and there were any colors. There were also gray-white ropes sparkling and snorting on it. Seeing that the rope is getting shorter and shorter, it is about to burn the cloth bag.

The Huns, who were running fast, had already run through the cloth bags, and the slower ones were still following closely. The Huns saw that they were about to catch up, and they felt that their bows and arrows should be able to shoot the fleeing cloud thunder soldiers.

At this moment, the Hun cavalry heard an earth-shattering sound under their feet, and clouds of black smoke came out, and huge fires continued to emerge from the ground. Black smoke filled the air, and the Huns could no longer see each other, only smelling a strange smell. The war horses could no longer be controlled, and they jumped up one by one, knocking the Huns to the ground one by one.

Where the clouds and thunder sounded, hundreds of Huns were in a mess. Some of them were of course killed, some of them were injured and fell off of their own, and some of them were overturned by the horses and trampled by the horses behind them.

The cavalry running in front looked back, only to see the thick smoke behind them, the cries, and the sound of horses were intertwined, and their hearts were terrified, and they were wandering and helpless. The sound of "whooshing" that I heard in my ears turned my head, and I saw a group of men and horses coming from the opposite side, each standing up straight, urging the horses, holding the bow in one hand, drawing arrows with the other, and putting the arrows on the bow, just wondering how this group of cavalry could stand up straight, and see one bow and arrow shooting at them.

Several of the Huns have fallen off their horses, although they have armor on their bodies, it is difficult to resist the fierce bows and arrows of the other party, and it is effortless to see that the bow and arrow shoot into the armor, maybe the bow and arrow are extremely sharp, or maybe the speed of the arrow is through the speed of the horse, so it is extremely powerful.

The remaining Hun cavalry saw that the opponent was so powerful, and hurriedly turned their horses' heads, preparing to escape, who knew that handing over their backs to the enemy defenselessly was probably the most wrong choice at this time.

The bows and arrows in the back shot more intensively at the Hun cavalry, and the Huns fell off their horses one by one. Only a few Hun cavalry escaped, and these few cavalry ran through the black smoke, and did not care about the wailing of their own people under the hooves, but only cared about beating their horses forward.

After the black smoke, there were many Hun cavalry, who were stopping their horses, looking forward, at a loss, seeing a few of their own people, fleeing backwards in panic, knowing that the front was not good, and now it was too late to inquire carefully, only to escape in time was the right reason.

At this time, the saber team had already run behind the Hun cavalry. These people waited for work, like a tiger descending from the mountain, holding a saber in their hands, rushing towards the Hun cavalry galloping in front, stabbing if they could, cutting if they couldn't, they couldn't reach people, and they cut at the horses of the Huns.

There were a few Hun cavalrymen wielding scimitars, listening to the wind behind them, clamping the horse's belly, turning back, and swinging their swords at the saber behind them. The two knives collided, sparks splashed everywhere, and some just touched the blade of the Pingzhou saber, and suddenly the scimitar was left with the handle in his hand. Fear spreads further, how can these people be so powerful.

No one will resist anymore, only try to run forward desperately.

After chasing for several miles, the battalion commander of the sabre team gave an order, let go of the Hun cavalry who ran away, beat the horse backwards, and solved the Huns who were still shouting on the ground one by one.

Wu Kui saw clearly on the hillside, smiled, and went down the hillside. Ordering the whole army to rest on the spot, clean up the battlefield, and send more detectives, there should be some problems ahead.

At night, the banks of the river are brightly lit, and the boats on the river are just as sparkling.
