Chapter 111: Trap to Destroy the Enemy

(Author's note: Thank you to all the book friends who supported this book!) )

Suddenly, I don't know who was the first to notice the abnormality, and a dense group of Yellow Turban troops in the distance was coming along the north bank of the riverbed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"The Yellow Turban is here! Hide, everyone! Civilians on the shore shouted.

The civilians who picked up fish in the riverbed returned to the shore one after another, leading their wives and children to quickly avoid the Yellow Turban Army, but these civilian men and women did not leave, but waited for the thousand Yellow Turban Army led by Gong Yinglian to pass, ran back into the river again, and started picking up fish again.

Along the dry river of the Kui River, all the way forward, Feng Yao, who had successfully completed the water diversion and his entourage, was sitting on the south bank of the river eating the dry food he brought with him.

Feng Yao nibbled on the dry food in his hand while looking at the water of the Kui River flowing happily along the widened ditch, and his face was filled with a satisfied smile.

The reason why the Yellow Turban Army did not dare to go out of the city to inspect was the best, even if the Yellow Turban Army could quickly understand the reason, and wait for the transfer of the army, and then spend several times more energy to redirect the river back to the original river, it would take more than a day and a night, although it was a pity that he could not bring an army to ambush nearby, but Feng Yao used the pits dug by digging the soil to make many traps around here.

When the dry food was only half eaten, the relatives who were sent out to guard suddenly had a horse galloping back, saw him jump off his horse, knelt on the ground and said urgently: "Lord! There are 1,000 Yellow Turban troops coming along the north bank of the Fish River! ā€

Xu Chu, Yang Wu and others immediately jumped up when they heard the words and escorted Feng Yao.

"My lord! Let's get out of here! It's dangerous here! Xu Chu said.

"Yes, my lord! After a busy night, the brothers are tired and unfit to fight the enemy! Yang Wu also said.

Feng Yao put away the dry rations and asked the personal attendant who reported the news: "What kind of troops are these thousand enemy troops?" Who will the Lord be? ā€

He shook his head and said, "Lord! Commander Liu is investigating, let his subordinates come back first to report it, and the specific enemy situation will not be known until Commander Liu returns! ā€

"I see! You get up first! Feng Yao said, then his face froze, and he looked around at the relatives around him, "Everyone immediately get ready!" Wait for my command! ā€

"Yes!" All the relatives responded in unison, quickly untied their horses from the trees, turned over their horses, and at the same time drew their swords from their waists, and lined up one by one.

After waiting for a while, the scout commander Liu came back by the way and said, "The enemy's commander, Gong Yinglian, led a thousand soldiers, five hundred sword and shield soldiers, and five hundred pikemen!" Ten cavalrymen, each with a shovel and other tools, look at the situation, it seems that they are preparing to dredge the river! ā€

Feng Yao's heart sank, and he said in his heart: "This Gong Yinglian is so smart!" I guessed the reason directly, and I came prepared, and I really can't underestimate it! ā€

"Lord, are you retreating?" Personally followed Yang Wu and asked again.

"Don't be in a hurry to retreat! Since the enemy army has arrived so quickly, his heart must be anxious, and we will lure the enemy across the shore and make him fall into the trap! Feng Yao's eyes flashed with a glint and he said.

Looking at the smoke and dust coming from the east, Feng Yao's face was calm with a hint of banter, "Gong Yinglian didn't bring archers this time!" Although there were 500 pikemen, in this fairly flat terrain, they could only be dragged by cavalry! ā€

Feng Yao didn't want to let the enemy rebuild the Fish River, which he had worked hard all night to break! At least not very easy to fix! Anyway, with the advantage of cavalry, you can retreat at any time, and you can abuse these poor melee troops first!

After a while, Gong Yinglian saw more than 100 enemy cavalry stationed on the south bank of the river, and then looked at the shovels brought by these cavalrymen, and immediately understood everything!

Seeing that there were no other reinforcements on the left and right, and the surrounding terrain did not look like it could hide the ambush soldiers, the anger in Gong Yinglian's heart that had been held for a whole day finally broke out, and she pointed the spear in her hand and rode leisurely to Feng Yao, who was stationed on the south bank, and shouted angrily: "Charge the pikemen and stab those cavalrymen to death!" Don't let the enemy commander go! ā€

It is rare to see a cavalry team full of 100 in the Central Plains, and it is not the princes at the state level who can have such strength, so Gong Yinglian immediately judged that Feng Yao must be hiding among the more than 100 cavalry, even if he can't hurt Feng Yao, if he can destroy this group of cavalry, it will also be a huge blow to Feng Yao's army!

"Kill ——!!" Gong Yinglian's five hundred pikemen immediately burst into a roar of rage, and the spears pointed obliquely, standing like a forest, and they quickly charged forward along the north bank, where the river channel had been cut off by a dam of earth and twigs, and the river was all cut off, and turned into a ditch to the south.

On the other side of the earthen dam, there were more than 110 cavalry cavalry such as Feng Yao, and they were lightly armed cavalry without armor! Although the earthen dam can only allow one or two people to pass, it is enough for pikemen, and with a finger of the spear, which cavalry dares to stand in the way!

"Rush! Kill the past and stab those abominable cavalrymen to death! The Yellow Turban Lancer imagined the spear stabbing through the enemy's body, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

However, just when the spear was only more than ten feet away from the earthen dam, dozens of pikemen who rushed to the front suddenly stepped into the air, and the ground in front of them suddenly sank, and suddenly a frightened scream sounded from the trap, and the pikemen who were charging behind did not react at all for a while, and could not hold their feet, and in the time between a few breaths, more than 200 pikemen fell into the trap.

This trap was actually only made by Feng Yao when he was digging and filling the river, but Feng Yao deliberately deepened the trap a lot, the width reached more than three zhang, and almost blocked all the roads on the north bank of the whole north bank, as long as you walked along the north bank of the river, you would definitely fall into the pit, the depth of the pit also reached more than three zhang high, and the bottom was full of sharpened wood, as long as a person fell into it, even if he was not stabbed to death, he would fall half to death.

Feng Yao didn't expect the pikemen to charge!!

If you don't charge, this trap can only hurt the first row or two of enemy soldiers, and the number of injured enemies will not exceed a hundred, but the scene in front of you almost made Feng Yao laugh out loud.

The 500 pikemen fell down like dumplings, and even if some enemy soldiers found that there was a pit in front of them, they would still be knocked down the pit by the pikemen who were charging behind them, and the pikemen who fell first were crushed to death by the pikemen who fell later, even if they did not die.

There were even pikemen who put up their spears in a panic, trying to stand up on the ground, but this move undoubtedly caused more Yellow Turban pikemen to die tragically, and the Yellow Turban soldiers who fell on top of the spears were stabbed through by the erected spears before they had time to scream, only to hear "Puff puff puff...... The sound of the spear piercing through the body, and the erected spear pierced several Yellow Turban soldiers one after another, and then they fell into the pit with a bang!

Five hundred elite soldiers of yellow turban spears were destroyed by Feng Yao's trap and nearly three hundred!

The Yellow Turban soldiers who escaped looked at the bloody situation in the pit with a frightened face, retreated again and again, and shouted: "There is a trap! There are traps!! ā€

Although these pikemen were trapped by the trap of nearly three hundred brothers at once, they were terrified for a while, but the main general did not give the order to withdraw the attack, and after glancing at the light cavalry on the opposite bank, his heart was furious, and those cavalrymen only wore a cloth coat and only carried a saber and a sword! Do you want to challenge a pikeman who is nearly two feet long!!

The Yellow Turban General of the Pikemen shouted, "Brothers! There will be no traps in the river!! Rush through the river!! Kill those cavalrymen and avenge your dead brothers!! ā€

In the shouts of the generals, the remaining pikemen were caught in the rage of the sky, turned their heads, and directly stepped on the mud to cross the river, the bottom of the river is not wide, less than two zhang, more than ten steps can be crossed! As long as it passes, they will vent their anger in their chests with their spears!

This series of events happened too suddenly, and it wasn't until the roar of the Yellow Turban General that Gong Yinglian understood what had happened to the pikemen who were fighting in the front, but before she could give an order, her subordinate generals led more than 200 pikemen who were furious!
