Gao Fei was very satisfied with the scout's return, and Beigong Boyu really took the bait, although he followed closely behind, he did not take any action, and always kept a distance from the Han army, neither letting go easily nor attacking easily.

For three days in a row, the Han army, under the leadership of Gao Fei, retreated only a hundred li, camping at thirty li a day, and reducing it according to five hundred stoves every day. Not only that, but even the large battalion that was set up was getting smaller and smaller one at a time, and although the flags had not decreased, the back of the camp had begun to be replaced with soldiers who were both real and scarecrow. His purpose in doing this was simple, first, to confuse the enemy, and secondly, to give the retreating people enough time to retreat to the east of Chencang.

Beigong Boyu was waiting in the woods ten miles away, and when he heard the scout's return, he seemed very happy, and in three days, the dry food they were carrying was almost finished, and it was time to take action. Whether it is the Qiang people, Huangzhong Yi Conghu or not, they all belong to the nomadic people, and they do not need to carry so many things like the Han army when marching, but everyone simply brings a little cheese and water, which is enough for them to eat, and everything else is completely supported by the Han people, and it is their most characteristic way of war to feed the war.

However, during the past three days, they passed through either empty cities or empty villages and towns, and the Han people did not know where they had gone, so they did not loot anything, which was the most intolerable to the entire rebel army. As the leader of these 10,000 people, Beigong Boyu naturally knew what his subordinates were thinking, and seeing the dissatisfaction of many subordinates, he finally made up his mind to start attacking the Han army camp today!

After resting for a while, Beigong Boyu turned over and got on his horse, according to his estimation and the return of the scouts, there were only five or six thousand people in the current Han army camp at most, and the others had already fled, and he wanted to completely destroy this army that was his enemy.

Beigong Boyu shouted a few words to his subordinates that made them excited, telling the weakness of the Han army, and also boasting that there was a large amount of gold and grain in the Han army's camp, and whoever grabbed it would be whoever. The group of rebels were all people who saw Qian's eyes, and when they heard this, their eyes flashed with golden light, and they roared away with Beigong Boyu's order.

In the Han army camp ten miles away, the Han army had already been fully prepared and refreshed in three days, and today each of them knew in their hearts that there would inevitably be a big battle.

On the periphery of the camp, there were still obstacles such as antlers and horses around the camp, which could slow down the rebel cavalry and increase the strength of the defense. The banner of the Han army in the camp is still whirring in the cold wind, and the weather is getting colder day by day, and it has entered the second half of September. Goofy, dressed in armor and with twenty guards behind him, was making one last round of the camp.

After the inspection, Gao Fei said to a few guards who followed behind: "A few of you go separately to convey the order, let all the departments be ready, let the crossbowmen shoot one person from every ten enemy soldiers, and the sword and shield soldiers, spearmen and halberd soldiers are ready to rush out at any time, and inform Zhao Yun and Li Wenhou who are outside the camp to kill when they see the red flag fluttering in the camp." ”

Several of the guards said "yes", and then ran separately in all directions of the camp, and two of them also ran out of the camp and ran into the woods on both sides.

There is no sun in the sky today, and the sky is filled with gloomy clouds, which gather more and more, and gradually form thick clouds, and the sky is overcast.

After about half an hour, everyone in the camp could feel the earth tremble, and the chaotic sound of horses' hooves shook people's hearts, and a burst of dust was rolled up from the western official road, and the majestic Qianghu cavalry continued to drive out of the dust, which was really a gallop of thousands of horses.

Gao Fei watched the galloping scene of thousands of horses through the gap in the wooden fence of the camp, but saw that Beigong Boyu took the lead, and behind him were Hu people wearing Rong Qiu, each of whom had a strong physique, compared with the Han soldiers in his camp, it was even better. But he could also see that there was a kind of disdain on the faces of each of the Qianghu cavalrymen, and even their expressions were smug, as if the things in this camp would be theirs soon after.

The Han army camp was set up on the official road to the east, and on both sides of the official road were not too high hills, and there was a not too dense forest on the hills, and the woods were quiet, which did not arouse the interest of the group of Qiang Hu cavalry at all.

Beigong Boyu galloped to a stop three miles outside the camp, first looked at the sparse Han soldiers in the camp, and then looked at the banners standing in the camp, the two scenes formed a great contrast, sneered, and said lightly: "It's just a bluff!" Give me offense! ”

With Beigong Boyu's order, hundreds of cavalry took the lead in rushing out, they took a noose from under the saddle, scattered it in a line and waved it on their heads, ready to use the lasso to remove all the antlers surrounding the walled gate.

The hidden archers of the Walled Gate released more than 100 arrows according to Gao Fei's instructions, which was simply no threat to the rebels, who were born to be strong on horseback. Hundreds of rebel cavalry quickly pulled the antlers in front of the gate with lassoes, and the slightest defense caused the rebels to let out a cry of joy.

After the antlers were disassembled, Beigong Boyu lifted them casually, and a cavalryman beside him blew a whimpering horn, as soon as the horn sounded, the cavalry behind him drew out the scimitar in their hands, and some cavalry even put the arrows on the bowstring, whining and shouting, and rode their horses to the gate of the village.

Everyone at the gate felt the ground tremble again, and all of them held their breath, they did not move, and watched as the rebel cavalry rushed towards them with arrogance.

A thousand meters, close! Eight hundred meters, it's close again! Five hundred meters, closer! 200 meters......

"Pull!" Gao Fei saw the opportunity, suddenly issued an order, the soldiers guarding in front of the gate of the village also suddenly pulled the rope in their hands, two hundred meters in front of the mound quickly a row of cone-shaped horses were pulled up, rushing in front of the rebel cavalry was caught off guard, even people and horses crashed into the hard horse rejection, blood suddenly flowed down the wooden stakes on the horses, dyeing the nearby loess into blood.

The cavalry of the rebels was taken aback, they never thought that they had just removed the antlers of the Han army, and they actually ran into the rejection of the horse, and the cavalry behind them were a little frightened when they saw the scene in front, and the riders hurriedly reined in the reins of the horses, except for the more than 100 cavalry who rushed to the front and died, the rest were intact and circled in the back.

"Don't be afraid, the Han army will use these tricks, jump over, rush into the camp, slash the gate of the village, and let them see the power of our iron hooves!" Beigong Boyu didn't care about this small casualty at all, in his eyes, the Han army was already cornered.

After many cavalry of the rebels heard the shouts of Beigong Boyu, they rode their horses backwards a few steps, and then turned the horse's head again, and shouted loudly with "driving", and then rode the horse with their superb riding skills to make the horse jump in the air, and rushed through the rejection at the fastest speed, everyone was still waving the lasso in their hands, they wanted to use this set of rope to the gate of the Han army camp, and then use the power of the horse to destroy the gate and the fence.

A hundred meters, the rebel cavalry was already indescribably close.

"Shoot the arrows!" Goofy saw the timing and immediately shouted loudly.

At the sound of an order, the crossbowmen who had been lying in ambush behind the fence of the camp shot arrows alternately, and every ten archers aimed at one of the rebel cavalry, and none of the arrows fired missed.

The sudden rain of arrows of the Han army caught the rebel cavalry off guard, and the rebel cavalry was shot into hedgehogs with men and horses, and fell on the sandy ground in front of the walled gate, forming a special chasm eighty meters away. This time, the rebel cavalry suffered heavy casualties, and more than a thousand cavalry instantly became lonely ghosts.

Beigong Boyu was not discouraged, he didn't care about this small casualty, brandished his scimitar and shouted loudly behind him: "Charge me, the Han army will be 5,000 people, and the victory belongs to us!" Come on! ”

The rebel cavalry does not seem to be afraid of death, they are all people who lick blood on the edge of their swords, all of them have been strictly trained since childhood, they are not afraid of the Han people, on the contrary, the Han people should be afraid of them. The second wave of cavalry quickly rushed forward, followed by the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh waves, and the rebel cavalry with a thousand people in echelons rushed towards the Han camp like layers of waves, only this time they all held bows and arrows in their hands, instead of lassoes and scimitars, and they wanted to shoot through the Han camp with arrows in their hands.

Six thousand rebel cavalry rushed up at once, and the crossbowmen could shoot one person with ten people at first, but when the rebel cavalry quickly rushed over and shot the arrows in their hands into the camp, the Han army's crossbowmen began to panic a little, and the thousands of crossbowmen suddenly fought separately, each choosing their own target.

Thousands of arrows rained down on the barracks, and some Han soldiers were shot through by the rebels' arrows as soon as they appeared, and the two armies engaged in a battle between crossbowmen.

"Open the gate!" Gao Fei held a square shield in his left hand and a long knife in his right hand, glanced around at the two thousand sword and shield soldiers who were waiting for the battle, and saw that the rebel cavalry had rushed to a position fifty meters away from the camp, so he shouted at the soldiers guarding the gate of the village.

The gate of the fortress suddenly opened after Gao Fei's order, Gao Fei took the lead, raised the shield in his hand and rushed out of the gate first, the rest of the shield soldiers followed, the soldiers wearing orange and red Han army uniforms hesitated under the leadership of Gao Fei A pouring torrent, rushed into the cavalry of the rebels at the fastest speed, and raised the knife is a burst of slashing.

The miserable screams suddenly continued to come out in front of the camp, and the sudden attack of two thousand sword and shield soldiers caught these rebel cavalry off guard, behind them was the cavalry that kept coming, and in front of them was the Han army sword and shield soldiers who were very close to them, and the lethality of the bow and arrow was immediately weakened, and before they had time to put on the saber, they were rushed to the front by this group of sword and shield soldiers, and when the swords fell, the arms, thighs, and heads of the people kept falling from the horses, and those war horses were also frightened, and they were all running around.

At this time, Bian Xi led two thousand pikemen to rush out of the camp, and then a bright red flag on the watchtower of the camp continued to wave, and then suddenly killed two groups of Han cavalry from both sides of the official road, Zhao Yun and Li Wenhou each led a thousand cavalry to appear in the rear of Beigong Boyu.

The rebels were shocked, only to hear orange-red troops shouting "Han army might" everywhere, and they couldn't figure out how many people there were. Morale suddenly fell, and many rebels began to flee in all directions, but they saw the Han army flag fluttering in the woods on the left side of the official road, Fu Xie led 3,000 Han troops to kill them, and in the woods on the right, Gai Xun led 3,000 Han troops to kill them, and the rebels surrounded the rebels in a small open space.

In the camp, the crossbowmen of the Han army were still shooting arrows, and they showed their figures one after another, shooting indiscriminately towards the crowded places, and suppressed the rebels with a rain of arrows.

There was a lot of screaming and neighing of horses, and blood was gushing out of the body, and the yellow earth soon turned bloody, and corpses lay on the ground.

As soon as Beigong Boyu saw this situation, he immediately gathered the cavalry behind him and tried to rush out, but the cavalry behind him was already in chaos, and the proud and complacent rebel cavalry felt the fierce blow of the Han people for the first time, and the people who suddenly appeared far exceeded their imagination, which made them fall into extreme panic psychologically.

The back rushed to kill, the front kept retreating, and soon squeezed Beigong Boyu in the center of the team, the crowded road made him unable to turn around, and he couldn't even get off the horse, only to see the Han army constantly surround them, encircling them in a narrow area, and the rebel cavalry was constantly decreasing, only in such a quarter of an hour, the rebel cavalry was already less than 5,000 people left.

The Qianghu cavalry is not afraid of death, Gao Fei knows this deeply, so he does not dare to force each other, in case the rest of the beast fights and fights with the Han army, it will be more than worth the loss. Goofy killed the last of the rebel cavalry, surrounded them all in a very crowded area, and hurriedly shouted behind him: "Change the white flag!" Change the white flag! ”

The sound was transmitted to the camp in a solitaire manner, and the soldiers on the watchtower heard it and immediately waved the white flag vigorously. As soon as the white flag was lit, Zhao Yun and Li Wenhou, who were blocking at the rear, saw it, so they gave up a little bit and deliberately pretended to be surrounded by the rebel cavalry.

As soon as the mouth opened, the rebel cavalry, who had seen that the general trend had gone, and were ready to fight to the death, suddenly did not have that meaning, but were bent on breaking out of the siege.

So the situation on the battlefield changed, Gao Fei led people to slash forward again, and Fu Xie, Gai Xun and others covered up and killed on three sides, and Zhao Yun and Li Wenhou, who gave way behind them, also smashed the fleeing people with rolling logs and stones on the side of the road.

Although the future was dangerous and arrows rained down, the rebels did not hesitate to run back along the way of way, not wanting to lose their lives without grabbing their money.

Beigong Boyu also quickly escaped along the road under the escort of his personal escort, he didn't care about anything at the moment, only escaping was the best way out.

Half an hour later, the fighting stopped completely, and Zhao Yun followed those Qianghu rebels with five hundred elite horsemen, hoping to kill a few more Qianghu.

The battlefield was filled with the smell of blood, and all the personnel involved in the battle began to clean up the post-battle site, separating the corpses of Han soldiers from those of rebels, counting the battlefield, and collecting weapons, horses, and money. After half an hour of cleaning, the results came out, the rebels lost 8,913 people, and the Han army only killed 567 people, what a staggering number. The soldiers of the Han army admired Gao Fei's command very much, and when they were excited, they couldn't help but shout the slogan "Hou Ye is mighty", which made Gao Fei establish a kind of prestige in the hearts of this group of soldiers.

"Master Hou, today can be described as a big victory, if it weren't for Master Hou's good command, we wouldn't have been able to achieve such a victory. In this way, Beigong Boyu is bound to be afraid of Hou Ye, but he is afraid that he will not chase after him again. We should hurry back to Chencang now to set up defenses, in case Zhang and Han Sui come with hundreds of thousands of troops, I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to resist. Fu Xie said happily.

Goofy nodded, and then ordered the soldiers to burn the corpses of the rebels and bury the corpses of the Han soldiers.

After everything was ready, Zhao Yun came back with a lot of five hundred cavalry, each with a human head hanging on his horse, and actually pursued and killed five hundred rebels. Then the camp was raised, and the Han army began to advance rapidly, heading towards Chencang, which was eighty miles away.

In the evening, it rained in the sky, and the wet and cold rain did not wash away the blood flowing from the bodies of the Han soldiers.

The rain became heavier and heavier, but the Han army in the mountain road did not stop advancing because of the rain, and they still ran towards Chencang at the speed of a rapid march, striving to reach Chencang at nightfall.

The night fell quietly, and every soldier's body was wet, and his clothes were wrapped around his body.

It was almost nine o'clock in the evening when they arrived at Chencang, and all the people took a long breath, and the deserted Chencang suddenly became crowded, but fortunately, Liao Hua, Lu Heng and others had already prepared to respond, and after some reasonable arrangements, the Han army lived in various small camps that temporarily stretched more than ten miles east from Chencang.

In Chencang County, the exhausted Gao Fei changed out of his wet clothes and took a hot bath. Thinking that his trip to Liangzhou in the past half a month has been fruitful, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. After drinking a bowl of hot soup, he fell asleep on the comfortable bed, which was the first time in his past half a month that he slept so soundly and so peacefully.
