In the grasslands in the middle of the night at the end of winter, the temperature is so low that it can almost drip into ice.

Except for the Yulin Army, who patrolled back and forth with lanterns, the entire camp was pitch black.

The cold wind at the bottom of the whine sticks to the turf, making it completely cold from feet to head. In the darkness of the night, there were a few sporadic sounds like icicles falling to the ground, and occasionally there was a sharp whine like a cold wind squeezing through the crack in the door.

The whole night was extraordinarily quiet.

In the central camp, the curtain of a large camp was lifted, and the cold wind blew everyone into a spirit. After distinguishing his face by the faint light of the charcoal fire, a lieutenant said, "General, the enemy is coming from the east. ”

"What the eldest brother expected was not bad. In this case, the people from the east, west and north sides were withdrawn, and all the Yulin troops were concentrated in the south, and once the battle was engaged, Lord Gu led all the envoys to retreat to the south, and when the rockets on this side were raised, you would respond. ”

An old voice said, "Just do as Master Xie says." ”

A deep voice said, "Give the order." ”

The lieutenant immediately retreated, and then the central battalion heard the sound of armor rubbing.

The people in the large camp were naturally members of the group of the Receiving Mission.

Two night guards, one in front of the other, were patrolling the camp fenced by the carriage. A night guard suddenly shuddered, and found that the lantern carried by the person in front of him disappeared in an instant, and was about to stretch out his head to take a closer look, but found that the lantern in his hand flew into the sky all of a sudden, and soon fell in front of him, the guard's mouth opened wide, but he couldn't make any sound, at this time, he found that a foot appeared in front of him, no, two feet.

Enemy attack!

The guards couldn't scream. Because his head has been cut off entirely. One of the guards in front of him was also covered in the mouth and stabbed in the heart at the same time as his head fell.

He suddenly couldn't see the lantern that his companion was carrying because it was blocked by the man in black.

Soon, a shrill flute sounded.

In the night, a fire suddenly lit up behind a low hillside, and then a shower of fire fell from the sky on the camp where the mission was located, and the white felt tent soon burned.

As soon as the rain fell, thunder erupted on the hillside, and then, in the light of the burning felt tent, a broad black arrow shot towards the camp.

The cavalry of the horse bandits came.

A black torrent crashed into the burning camp, like a black boot bursting a bunch of balloons.

The black torrent passed through the camp in an instant.

The picture is a little weird.

In the whole process, except for the voices of the horse bandits themselves mixed with Chinese and Xianbei language, there was no scream of the Jin people. From the camp road, I didn't see a single Jin person!

The leader in black armor who rushed to the front was the first to cross the camp and was the first to notice the problem.

"There's an ambush!"

However, it was too late.

As soon as he finished speaking, a three-edged arrow pierced his helmet, and the force of the arrow was so great that it carried him off his horse. Then half of his head flew out along with his helmet.

The momentum of the horse bandits' galloping has not weakened, and the horse bandits who came after hearing the shouts of this life are still non-stop, rushing out of a long distance before they can stop.

The body of the bandit general quickly turned into a pulp of flesh under the horse's hooves, and was trampled into the dirt, making it impossible to distinguish it.

After a leader shouted "there is an ambush", the bandits found that the leader was dead. It immediately caused a commotion.

"These barbarians are still as low IQ as ever."

Xie Shence stood in the distance, watching the rain of fire rise and fall behind the hillside to the east, watching his tent engulf in flames, and then watching the black cavalry interspersed with the camp. I couldn't help but sigh.

It is rare for Xie Shenwei to lower the banner, but it is definitely not that no one has done it. With such a large mission, the color and the flag are fluttering all the way, and the identity is clearly written: Dajin Mission! With such a large mission, even the average large bandit would not dare to do it. Collecting the flag is a show of strength.

Many of the caravans that walked the grasslands and the Central Plains had a relationship with the horse bandits, and they generally handed over the money to buy the road or some goods, so they could not be disturbed. The strong caravans were equipped with a large number of guards, and most of these caravans were private caravans of the great families, and the horse bandits were not willing to be easily provoked. These caravans are absolutely confident in their own strength, not afraid of horse bandits, and also a warning to horse bandits.

Therefore, the horse bandits generally do not move when they see the huge team of flags.

But the cavalry of the section was not horse bandits. This time, the Duan Department dispatched a thousand cavalry! What kind of caravan can't be taken? What about even missions?

Such an arrogant act of collecting the flag turned into a provocation and an insult in the eyes of the Duan cavalry and even Duan Pishan.

So Duan Pishan, who originally just wanted to pretend to be a horse bandit and plunder, ordered that he must let these Central Plains people see blood!

Duan Pishan already knew the identity of the person who killed his second son - Xie Tu's own nephew!

Naturally, he would have to die.

The pro-friendly mission must also die.

As for the reaction of the Jin Kingdom after the mission was destroyed, Duan Picheng didn't care. At most, the war is.

So he ordered Duan Bunan to lead the team, led 600 cavalry to take the lead, and led 400 people to suppress the formation.

I thought it was foolproof, but I didn't expect that I was still reckless. Because the mission on the opposite side is not an ordinary caravan, let alone a simple envoy. There were brothers of the Xie family in the mission.

Xie Shence's keen instincts told everyone that this road would not be easy. Sure enough, on the third day of entering the Xianbei territory, he was attacked at night.

Since Xie Shence left Chuzhou, there have been attacks every time he travels far away, and he has been injured every time, each time more serious than the other. Therefore, Xie Shence was very worried that this time he would go to the land of tigers and wolves, and there would also be danger. In particular, it is necessary to pass through the territory of the Xianbei of the section where there is great hatred. So Xie Shence is very vigilant.

Besides, he never thought that this time it was just as simple as kissing.

In fact, it turns out that Xie Shence's vigilance is justified.

"Yulin Army! Listen to orders! Charge! ”

"Wow! Ooh! Ooh! ”

After three low roars, the formation was completely aligned. Xie Shenwei took the lead, and with a wave of the halberd, the six hundred forest cavalry slashed towards the Xianbei cavalry who had already passed through the camp.

The original night had been torn apart by the firelight, and the area of the camp occupied by the mission of more than 1,000 people was very large, and a thousand rockets could not completely cover the entire camp, so although the felt tent was on fire, it could not be burned for a while. The blazing flames dragged the figure of the black cavalry of the section to the end. At the same time, the silver-white armor of the Yulin Army also shone brightly.

Xie Shenwei took the lead, and was the first to make contact with the Xianbei cavalry, and the halberd swept away, stopping the two cavalrymen from their horses, and then crashing into the ranks of the Xianbei cavalry.

For a while, the saber was wielded, and the severed head and limbs flew sideways. When the horse is running at high speed, the man on the horseback needs only a small amount of strength to cut the enemy in front of him in two.

Blocking and intercepting pay attention to a fast and an angle. The quick is to take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold, quickly attack, and do not give the enemy time to react to the array. The angle refers to the angle of cutting into the enemy's formation, if the enemy is still running at high speed, the right-angle cut often does not cause effective damage, but will expose their flanks to the enemy, and it is easy to be cut off by the enemy, so the angle of the enemy in the cut movement is very important. It's like cutting down a tree, it's always cut diagonally. If the angle is not important, then this is the situation today: the Xianbei cavalry is not stable, and the formation is not in order.

Xie Shenwei came at the right time.

The six hundred Yulin cavalry were like knives inserted into the cream, and with only one charge, the Xianbei cavalry was poked open a big hole.

When the Xianbei cavalry hastily organized the defense, the Yulin army had already changed from the rear to the front, and the second charge arrived.

In two charges, the 600 Yulin cavalry completely crippled the 600 Duan cavalry.

Duan Pishan's face was already red on the hillside. It's not just the anger but the fire.

It's been a long time, but it's actually only a moment.

Xie Shenwei let the trap laid by Yu Lin Ride effectively detect the direction of the horse bandit's attack, which was due east. The horse bandits were naturally on horseback, and there was a gentle slope in the east, which was most suitable for cavalry to charge and kill, so Duan Pishan just chose the right option given by Xie Shenwei and attacked from the east. And Xie Shence also gathered the remaining three people in advance in a timely manner, and let the civil officials of the mission who had already gathered in the south retreat first, and he and Yulin rode behind the palace together.

The inducement and arrangement are all prepared in advance, and the real battle has to be fought to know.

So it was quickly hit, and then it was quickly known.

After Duan Pishan reacted and before making an actual response, Xie Shenwei charged twice to kill Duan Pishan's vanguard. And Duan Pishan's four hundred people were no longer able to affect the battle situation at this time.

Who told you that Yulin Cavalry is a boy soldier who has never seen blood?

The Feather Forest Cavalry of the Jin Kingdom has always been led by the prince, and all the Feather Forest Army was selected from among the veterans who had beheaded more than three people on the border!

Otherwise, how could Emperor Tian Qi of the Jin Dynasty use the Yulin army to enter the palace and launch a coup d'état?

In the era when betrayal was as normal as eating for hegemony, the emperor did not have a bunch of red sticks dyed red on his hands, how could he dare to close his eyes when he slept?

So six hundred against six hundred, the feather forest ride won simply. At a pittance of killing 200 enemies and wounding nearly 100, the Xianbei cavalry completely lost its combat effectiveness.

With a sound of the flute, the hundreds of Xianbei cavalry who had dispersed fled to the north in the darkness. Duan Pishan withdrew his troops.

Xie Shenwei took six hundred forest horsemen to join Xie Shence's two hundred and thirty people.

The Iron Guard defends Xie Shence, and unless Xie Shence personally goes into battle, the Iron Guard will not participate in the battle.

Xie Shence liked this group of silent children very much. said that it was a child, but it was really because the age of this group of iron guards was generally no more than twenty-five years old, and the youngest was the same age as Xie Shence. And the reason why Xie Shence likes them very much is that they absolutely obey orders.

Xie Shence said: "Go back, Duan Pishan's old horseman should be able to react soon." Put a signal, catch up with Lao Gu, and return to Huangsha Pass as soon as possible. ”

Xie Shenwei nodded, and a herald shot a signal arrow into the sky. Later, I saw a light rising four or five miles to the south, and Master Gu and the others received the news.

Duan Pishan looked at the light of the two signal arrows behind him, his eyes were gloomy, and he turned around and said, "Sure enough, there is a back move, Tuoba Rui!" You really want to get rid of my section as soon as possible! ”

"In that case, then don't blame me for breaking the contract! Summons to go back! 20,000 Iron Riders! Somebody is going to be before sunset tomorrow! See the head of the Xie family's child! ”

......

......

"Lord Xie, this ...... Is there anything that the mission has not returned? How can we explain to Your Majesty? ”

Lao Gu said with a wry smile. As soon as he entered the territory of Xianbei, he was attacked and forced to retreat, and it seemed that it was still an attack by Duan Xianbei. The family delegation was ambushed, once this matter came out, the dignity of the two countries would be lost, and at that time, in addition to the damn Duan Bu, the Great Jin would also launch one or two scapegoats.

Could this scapegoat still be Mrs. Xie's two grandsons?!

Lord Gu seemed to have seen the butcher's knife raised against him by the executioner.

Xie Shence looked at the squire of the Ministry of Rites who looked depressed, and comforted with a smile: "Old Gu, this matter is not simple, I have only guessed a rough idea so far, but I am not sure yet." However, I can tell you for sure that this time, you will not be condemned by Your Majesty for not receiving the princess. ”

Master Gu said angrily: "This time it's a kiss!" It's even more kissing! My Great Jin Mission was beaten back as soon as it entered the territory of Xianbei! It's a great shame! Shame! Gu Liangcai humiliated his mission and national prestige, and he was ashamed of His Majesty. ”

Xie Shence said: "Old Gu, don't howl, this time, maybe Your Majesty is ashamed of us." ”
