But it was said that Qin Dong led his troops to rush and kill all the way for a while before he saw the formed army blocking his way in front, and there were shouts of killing all over the mountains, it was a rectangular shield array that blocked the entire road, and on both sides was a thorny jungle, and he couldn't bypass this military formation, Qin Dong immediately stopped his horse: "Law-"

Seeing that Qin Dong in front of him stopped his horse, the cavalry behind him also stopped, Qin Dong observed the military formation for a while and then turned back to look at the rear, only to see the torches in the rear scattered, and there was no end in sight, countless wails came from the thorn bushes on the road and on both sides of the road, Xu is rush to kill a long distance, and then look at the war horse under his crotch, white gas kept spewing out from his nostrils, a little tired, Qin Dong smiled slightly, knowing that his task was completed, and the harvest of this pursuit was uncertain. It was not cost-effective to use light cavalry and archers to gnaw on the hard bone in front, so he immediately turned his horse's head and shouted: "The rear team becomes the front team, all turn back, let's go back and take the prisoners!" ”

The cavalrymen behind turned their horses' heads and shouted together: "Surrender or kill, everyone squats down and holds their heads in their hands!" ”

Many of the Roman soldiers who were killed and scattered in the rear were captured in the thorn bushes, whether they were injured or not, they all came out and squatted on the side of the road to wait for capture, this big night, the black lights were blinding, cold and hungry, rather than freezing to death and starving to death in the mountains, or being eaten by wild beasts, it was better to surrender and be safer, even if you were a slave, you could save your life, right? But when you die, there's nothing.

Qin Dong and his cavalry captured the prisoners together, this job was not very easy, and the prisoners were almost soft. Think about it, with three hundred people to capture a team of more than two thousand, and quite a few were wounded. This is not a lot of pressure. Fortunately, this army was all killed, otherwise it would definitely be a big trouble for these people to make trouble.

Herolius marched quickly with the remnants of the Fourteenth Legion of more than 6,000 people, and it took more than two hours to leave the section of the road that Qin Dong was chasing far behind, and it didn't take long for a soldier to quickly catch up with him on horseback and report to him: "General, the commander of the Chormesses has ordered me to report to you that our unit has successfully stopped Qin Dong's cavalry. Now that Qin Dong's cavalry has turned around, he asked me to reassure the general that he will lead the team to break the rear. to ensure the safety of the rear of the main force! ”

"Okay, let's go down!" Helorius waved the knight back, and when the knight rode away in the direction he had come, he rode to the side of the road. Let the soldiers behind him pass guò. The convoy and staff stayed with him on the side of the road.

"My first and second wings are gone!" Herolius almost cried out when he said bitterly, originally according to his plan, he used the first wing and the siege battalion as the broken troops to pretend to attack the city overnight to cover up the signs that the main force had to retreat because of the lack of food, but Qin Dong suddenly led the team to chase after him, what does this mean? There is no other reason, it can only show that his plan was seen through by Qin Dong, and Qin Dong had long expected him to arrange it like this, and at the same time, the outcome of the first wing and the siege camp can also be imagined. It must be over, otherwise it would be impossible for Qin Dong to lead the team to appear behind him to chase and kill.

And that's not all. Among the main forces retreating, the second wing was the most elite, Qin Dong just led the team to chase and kill, completely destroying the second wing, although it was blocked by the wing of Homsis, but the second wing was also completely finished, and the remaining six thousand people could not be compared with the first and second wings in terms of combat effectiveness.

Seeing Helorius like this, a staff member next to him hurriedly advised: "Your Excellency, please mourn, now is not the time to mourn, we have to leave this canyon before dawn, only when we go out of the Olympiad, we can be safe, and please ask the General to put the safety of the army first."

Helorius didn't know this, but he couldn't help crying when he thought of the fate of the first and second wings, this battle was really heartwarming, he cleaned up his mood, sorted out his feelings, and asked: "Where are you in front, how far is it from Lower Orsay?" ”

One person replied: "General, ten miles ahead is the Wild Wolf Canyon, and after the Wild Wolf Canyon, you can reach the Lower Olympiad after two hours!" ”

Herolius nodded, he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a Hun cavalry that had not appeared, that is, the Hun cavalry who raided the grain and grass warehouse of Ximi, if he encountered the Hun cavalry raid in the canyon, the consequences would be unimaginable, he was anxious in his heart, but he couldn't think of any good way, and asked for the opinions of several staff members after expressing his worries.

When the staff heard this, only one of them said: "General, this really has to be guarded against, although they are cavalry, but if they dismount and ambush in the dense forests on both sides of the canyon to attack us, our already frightened soldiers will definitely be in a mess, and with their numbers, they can definitely cause us a lot of casualties!" ”

Helorius immediately asked, "Do you have any good ideas?" ”

The man thought for a moment and said, "General, subordinates can't avoid leaving the army without the slightest damage, but if someone is really ambushed, the subordinates think of a way to minimize the casualties of the army!" ”

There was a reminder next to him: "Oh, when is this coming, can't you finish the words in one go?" Say it quickly, don't let the general be in a hurry! ”

The man said to Helorius: "General, first, we can send people to reconnoiter and explore the way ahead, and it is best if we can find an ambush, even if we can't find an ambush, it doesn't matter, and second, in order to avoid an ambush and unnecessary casualties caused by the large crowding of our men, I think it is possible to divide the army into three parts, the first part is the third and fourth wings, and this part is in front, the second part is the fifth, sixth, and seventh wings, and the third part is the eighth, ninth, and tenth wings, and the three parts are separated by a mile in between. If there is really an enemy ambush, then they can attack at most one part, and it is not necessarily successful? ”

Helorius hurriedly asked, "What do you say?" ”

"General, think about it, if the other party raids the third and fourth wings of the first part, and the second part is only one mile away from them, they can soon run over to reinforce them, as long as the reinforcements are timely, the other party will definitely not succeed, maybe they will fall here and suffer heavy casualties, if the other party attacks the fifth, sixth, and seventh wings in the middle, then the men and horses of the first and third parts of the front and rear can immediately respond to each other, as long as the opponent's main general is not stupid, he will never do this, if the other party raids the third part, Then the Homsis division in the back and the second part in the middle can be quickly reinforced, and the only one they can raid is the Homsis department, but the Homsis division is now in a strong military formation, and it is difficult for the other party to bargain! ”

After hearing this, Helorius laughed: "Okay, good, this method is good!" Just do as the gentleman wants, pass on my order, and divide the army into three parts, the third and fourth wings are the first part in the front, the interval is one mile for the second part, including the fifth, sixth, and seventh three wings, and the third part is separated by one mile, including the eighth, ninth, and thirteenth wings, and ten more cavalry will be sent out one mile forward to reconnoiter the dense forests on both sides of the canyon, and report immediately if the situation is found! ”

A herald replied: "Yes, General! ”

After the order was transmitted, the Fourteenth Army began to divide into three parts, waiting for the third and fourth wings of the first part to go first, and after going out of one mile, the fifth, sixth, and seventh wings of the second part went again, and the eighth, ninth, and tenth wings of the third part were the same, and the interval between the three parts was one mile, and the distance between the three parts was not very short, but it was not long, and in the event of a surprise attack by the enemy, the armies of the other two parts could easily rush over to support.

Tuo Long led five hundred cavalry to ambush on the left cliff of the Wild Wolf Canyon, all the horses were left on both sides of the road ahead, and dozens of people were sent to guard them. Because the cavalry troops led by him have been moving at high speed for a long time, if you want to contact Qin Dong, it is not possible to pass the book with the flying pigeon, and the flying pigeon book is only suitable for the contact between two fixed locations, and when one side is in constant movement, the only way to use the flying eagle to pass the book, and the domesticated eagle is used as a tool to transmit information, and the eagle can fly at high altitude to find the target, but the pigeon is not.

"Look, my lord, the Romans are coming, and they have fired a lot of torches!" A soldier reminded Tolon.

Sure enough, Tolong looked over and found that a large group of people and horses had come, and everyone was holding torches and counting, Tolong found that it was abnormal, "No, why are there only 1,400 people?" The news came from the adults that there were at least 6,000 remnants of the 14th Legion, why were there only 1,400 now? ”

Not long after, the 1,400 men entered the ambush circle of Toron and his army, and a soldier next to him pointed to the left side and said, "Look, my lord, there is a group of men and horses a mile behind, and then a team of men and horses!" ”

After observing, Tolong suddenly realized: "I understand, the Romans are so cunning, they divided the army into three parts, each part is not far apart, when one part is attacked, the other two parts can be quickly reinforced, they can come up with this way to deal with the ambush, to prevent us from being killed, now it is our turn to do it!" ”

A centurion next to him hurriedly said: "My lord, make a decision quickly, if we let them pass, we will have no chance!" ”

Toron thought for a while and clenched his fists and said: "Although we were ordered to lay an ambush here, but the main task given to us by the Lord is to go to the Lower Osai and join Muren, since the Romans have defense, then we can only attack its front, pass my order, raid the first part of the enemy army, everyone push the rock down as fast as possible, smash it down, and then shoot it with bows and arrows, each of them shoots ten arrows, and after shooting, we will leave, the rock can block them for a while, enough for us to go down the mountain to get the horses and leave!" ”

"Yes, sir!" (To be continued......)
