The men and horses who came out to pursue the Houjin tribe were all wiped out. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The security forces quickly cleared the battlefield, removed the dying bales of firewood and straw in the valley, and opened the way to the valley.

Through the counting, in the battle just now, a total of more than 300 Houjin cavalry were eliminated, and all of them were young and middle-aged. With the size of this tribe of two or three thousand people, most of the warriors who can fight should be here.

Some of the security soldiers suggested rushing in now to fight quickly, anyway, the people inside have little combat effectiveness, Zhang Chu has matured a lot after so many years of battlefield tempering, he stopped the soldiers who are in a hurry, war is a matter of life and death, you must be careful at all times.

Under Zhang Chu's order, the security army regrouped and advanced into the valley in an orderly manner according to the combat regulations, preparing to attack the station of the Houjin tribe.

Today's Houjin tribe is still calm, the tribe of two or three thousand people is already a larger tribe in the Houjin, they have the confidence to deal with other people's attacks, especially the Han people who come to harass them, there is nothing to worry about, in the wars with the Ming Dynasty again and again, the Houjin people have completely established a psychological advantage, in the face of more Ming troops they have the confidence to win, although the attack of the small Han people killed two people in the tribe, but everyone believes, After a while, the warriors of Jin will be able to capture the hateful Han Chinese and break them to pieces.

When the security army lined up in a neat line and slowly advanced to the camp of the Houjin people, the Houjin people immediately became alert, the main leader was not there, and the old people in the tribe became the backbone, although they were old but still warriors, they had cut off countless heads in the battle with the Han people, and now they are old, and they can also kill them when facing the Han people. The Han people are still as stupid as ever, the team that came to attack was only two or three hundred people, the timid like a mouse gathered together, and did not see the spear of Rulin, this kind of formation as long as a few warriors rushed over to disperse the enemy formation, and then there was only slaughter, of course, it is better not to kill them all, if they are willing to surrender, they can still be spared, spring is coming and grazing will begin again, a large number of Han slaves are needed to work, in the winter the Han slaves in the tribe are frozen and starved to death, and they need to be replenished.

A white-haired old man from the Houjin tribe shouted loudly on his horse: "All the men take up arms and mount their horses, and those under the age of ten go and gather the Han slaves of each household into the horse pen, and if there is any disturbance and the opportunity to escape, they will be killed." ”

After the old man finished speaking, a small figure of more than 200 people with knives and bows quickly took action, and drove out the Han slaves from house to house, in order to speed up, they cut the slaves with a knife, and they did not cut the slaves to death with a knife, but aimed at the thick place of the slaves' flesh, not out of pity, but to make the slaves scream out of pain, and warn the other slaves to move quickly.

Watching the slave keepers leave, the old man continued: "The Han people thought they had a plan, lured the young men of our tribe away, and then came to attack the tribe, but they didn't expect that there were still us old guys, so everyone rushed over with me to teach them a lesson. After speaking, he took the lead and rode towards the Han team outside the camp.

The other men of the tribe rushed out with shouts. When the security guards, who were already moving slowly, saw that the Jin people rushed out on horseback, they actually stopped, and several carriages ran out from the side of the team, running back and forth in front of the team, and the people in the cars hurriedly threw things under the car.

The Houjin people sneered as they rushed, and as the distance approached, they had already understood that this small group of Han people had neither pikemen nor shieldmen to guard against bows and arrows, so they came out naked to fight with the Houjin cavalry, isn't this looking for death. Now just pass the front of the Han line, shoot arrows into their ranks to scatter them, and then rush over and slash them.

"Bow and arrow ready!" The old man at the head gave the order, and all the Houjin cavalry took out their bows and drew the arrows in the quiver, ready to reach the enemy's position, shoot the arrows, and then turn their horses around, so that it would not take two or three rounds for the enemy to be unable to support them.

Suddenly, the continuous gunfire in the security army rang out, which made the Houjin people more assured, they had been to the Ming Dynasty many times to "fight the grass valley", for the Ming army's tactics are very well understood, many times the Ming army is also equipped with firearms, but often because of timidity, the Houjin people have not yet entered the firing range when they shoot, the bullet does not know where to fly, only to play a role in listening to the courage. The Han people in front of them still did not make much progress compared to before, and the fact that they shot so far shows how frightened they are.

The corpses that fell from the horses shattered the dreams of the Houjin people, the Han muskets in front of him were very powerful, and the white-haired old man who led the team was very experienced, and he actually survived in such a dense rain of bullets, he immediately turned the horse's head after discovering the danger, and shouted at the same time: "Retreat!" Withdraw it! His shout saved many lives, and in the confusion, although most people could not hear his shout, the movements of several people around him served an exemplary role, and many of the Houjin cavalry behind followed them and retreated.

The Houjin ran out of the way and stopped when they were out of range of the muskets. The white-haired old man ordered to count the men and horses, but the short charge just now caused the Houjin people to lose half of their men and horses, and now there are only more than 300 people who can fight, and these people cannot break through the formation of the Han people. From a distance, the Han sent a small force to kill the Houjin people who did not escape because of their injuries, and gathered the war horses on the battlefield. When the Houjin people saw their brothers being killed like cattle and sheep, they were so heartbroken that they completely forgot that they had used the same methods to treat the wounded Ming soldiers.

The road to the depths of the valley has become very difficult, and if everyone runs together, only the able-bodied men will be able to escape, and most of the women and children will be taken prisoner by the Han Chinese.

What is good, everyone has no idea for a while, and one by one they cast anxious eyes on the white-haired old man.

"Don't worry, everyone, I have a way to defeat the Han people blocking the valley." The white-haired old man tried his best to make his tone appear calm to calm everyone's emotions.

"Is there a way to defeat the Han Chinese? What do you say? After listening to the white-haired old man's words, the Jin people came to their senses again, at this critical moment, no one would joke about this kind of thing.

"That's right! I will definitely be able to defeat the Han Chinese, as long as you prepare according to what I said. The white-haired old man looked full of confidence, and told the Houjin people in detail about his victory over the Han people. After listening to what the old man said, all the Houjin people were excited, and there was definitely no problem in winning according to this method, and the Houjin people hurriedly prepared according to the old man's instructions.
