Chapter 324: Wolf Smoke and Tricks (6)

All the soldiers of the riffraff got on their horses, always waiting for Ling Yi's military orders, and as long as they gave the order, they would charge into battle with Ling Yi.

Of course, this is just the expectation in his heart, Ling Yi's purpose is just to observe the battle situation here, and he will not really lead so many brothers to rush forward, really like that, just to deliver food!

Looking at the dust in the sky, Ling Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what was wrong: "Do you think that this Youzhou cavalry is a little strange!"

"Strange, what's strange, isn't it just that we arrived a little earlier than we expected?

"It's a little strange, the scout will find out the information again!" Hao Jun commanded the scout before!

After a while, the scout came back and said to Ling Yi: "Qu Chang is not bad, there is indeed a problem with this Youzhou cavalry!"

"What's the problem?" the crowd looked at the scout.

The scout hurriedly replied: "I have roughly counted this cavalry, there are only more than 10,000 knights, and it is not a large cavalry force in Youzhou!"

"Oh, what is this Han Ce's idea?" Ling Yi asked suspiciously, of course he was asking everyone, so that everyone could speak freely.

But there are very few people around him who can give advice, except for Hou Aoxuan and Hao Jun, only Zhang Cheng still has a little strategy, and the others are not good, they are all masters who only know how to fight like Sun Ze!

Hao Jun shook his head!

Hou Aoxuan shook his head!

Zhang Cheng also shook his head!

Ling Yi commanded the scout: "You continue to spy, and report as soon as there is information!"

"Yes!" the scout retreated!

Ling Yi looked left and right, there was a high ground to the east of him, although it was too far away from the mountain land, but the location was good, he could overlook the situation of the mountain land, he rode his horse and led the team, and galloped towards the dirt slope.

When he came to the dirt slope, he and a group of officers went directly to the top of the slope, and could vaguely see the situation in the mountain range.

I saw the war horses of the Youzhou cavalry stepping on the rolling dust, rushing towards the herdsmen in the mountains.

The herdsmen in the mountains had basically entered the mountains, and when they heard the cavalry chasing behind, they all abandoned their cattle and rushed desperately into the depths of the mountains.

There is still no trace of a cavalry in the Northern Wilderness there, and I don't know if there is really an ambush in the Northern Wilderness!

Although there were only 10,000 cavalry in Youzhou, this was also the largest cavalry charge that Lingyi had ever seen.

Seeing the 10,000 cavalry rushing directly into the herdsmen's livestock, Ling Yi originally thought that these cavalry would open the killing ring, but it was beyond Ling Yi's expectations.

These cavalrymen did not kill any cattle at all, nor did they pursue any herdsmen, but on the periphery of the animals, they kept driving the cattle in the direction of the mountains!

"What is this for? Is Han Ce going to graze for the herdsmen in the Northern Wilderness?" Sun Ze couldn't figure it out, if it was him, he would definitely rush to kill these cattle as soon as possible, clear a passage, and then chase the herdsmen and lure the ambush soldiers to move.

Ling Yi explained Sun Ze's confusion, but he didn't make it clear: "Han Ce's cavalry has its own intentions, you will know in a while, Han Ce still has a certain mind, and he is always a person who has tempered himself to the rank of general in the army, this strategy is not something we can think of!"

Listening to Ling Yi's half-cut words, Sun Ze was very unhappy, he was a straightforward person, he didn't like to go around and around, half of the talk and half of the hiding feeling was really uncomfortable!

"You mean!"

"Look at it slowly, it's not interesting to say it!" Ling Yi smiled mysteriously.

"Go, you don't know, and pretend to be mysterious!"

Just as the cavalry of the mountain range had driven the cattle everywhere, there was a trumpet, and the cavalry took out their longbows, drew their bows and arrows, and fired a volley at the fleeing herdsmen in the distance.

I saw that the fleeing herdsmen in front of me fell one after another, and the mountains were instantly blood-red.

Then there was another trumpet, not the previous attack trumpet, but "retreat to the position", the cavalry collected their bows, turned their horses' heads, and retreated!

"What's the situation? Han Ce's cavalry retreated before they could draw out the ambush troops, isn't this too cowardly!" Sun Ze continued to say in surprise.

Judging from the current situation, this Han Ce's cavalry has no appetite for himself at all, and does not have that kind of belligerent courage, and all actions are indifferent!

"Big brother, this Han Ce is really powerful!" Hao Jun said to Sun Ze on the side.

"Amazing? I don't see it? His cavalry didn't do anything, and killed a few herdsmen, is it powerful?"

"Big brother, don't be impatient, take your time!" Hao Jun also didn't explain clearly.

This made Sun Ze speechless, only to see him grab Hou Aoxuan, and asked angrily: "You come!"

"I, I'm ......" Hou Aoxuan was most afraid of Instructor Sun Ze, so he didn't dare to speak at all!

Sun Ze grabbed Hou Aoxuan's ears and asked, "Do you want to say it?"

"Instructor, I said, I said, you let go first!" Hou Aoxuan could only admit in front of Sun Ze!

"This is obedient, there are two people who don't fight for three days, and they go to the house to uncover the tiles!" Sun Ze patted Hou Aoxuan with a smile, which means that you still know how to count, otherwise you have to clean up, Ling Yi and Hao Jun can't run away and will be cleaned up!

Ah Hai looked energetic on the side, and said happily: "Yes, yes, yes, take care of them!"

"Hmph, you can't escape, and you won't tell me!" Sun Ze is going to take revenge on everyone!

"Eh, big brother, I really don't know!" Ah Hai regretted opening his mouth, he was originally going to fall into the well, but he didn't expect that stealing chickens would not make it a mess!

"Say it, I'll listen!" Sun Ze commanded Hou Aoxuan.

"Instructor, it's actually very simple, you also know that this mountainous place is not suitable for cavalry combat, and they shoot herdsmen to lure ambush soldiers to attack!"

"Needless to say, I know, I'm asking you, why didn't they kill those animals, and the ambush hasn't appeared yet, what are they running for?"

"The cattle are kept to hinder the footwork of the pursuers, and to retreat is to retreat!"

"It's a good idea to use cattle to hinder the pursuit of the Northern Wilderness cavalry, but what does it mean to 'retreat is to retreat'?"

"Well, it's that they really retreated!"

"Really retreat?" Sun Zezhen didn't know what the reason was!

Hou Aoxuan asked Sun Ze rhetorically: "Instructor, if you are a cavalry of the Northern Wilderness, watching the trap you set the enemy not jump in at all, and shoot your own compatriots, what will you do?"

"Me?" Sun Ze said excitedly: "Of course I led my troops to pursue it personally!"

After speaking, Sun Ze gradually understood: "It turns out that Han Ce's idea seems to be a bit interesting!"

"Yes, yes!" Hou Aoxuan hurriedly agreed!

Just when Sun Ze reacted, a cavalry really appeared in the mountains, chasing the retreating Youzhou cavalry!

The number of people is comparable to Youzhou, but the momentum is better than that of Youzhou's cavalry, watching their compatriots die tragically, they are naturally angry, and they naturally work hard to pursue the murderer!

Originally, there was still some distance between the two sides, and there were cattle hindering it, although the cavalry of the Northern Wilderness had attacked, they could not catch up with Han Ce's cavalry!

Just when the Northern Wilderness cavalry rushed out of the herd of cattle and had not yet sorted out the formation, the Youzhou cavalry who had fled was another trumpet, suddenly turned the horse's head, drew the bow and arrows, and fired another volley at the pursuing Northern Wilderness cavalry!

This made everyone secretly surprised by the ruffian Qu who could see it, and the timing of the Youzhou cavalry was really well controlled. If you shoot early, there will be a herd of livestock, and there will be a lot of arrows missing; if you shoot late, the cavalry of the Northern Wilderness will form a defensive posture, and the effect will be greatly reduced, and the timing is just right now!

"I underestimated Han Ce before, his position as a general is really not in vain, just this little lure to the enemy, you can see his profound command ability!" Ling Yi reversed his previous opinion of Han Ce, he always thought that he was a stubborn guy, but he didn't expect to be more powerful than others than he imagined, people disdained their own opinions, and others simply cracked the situation that they thought was dead.

Now that he had only lured out a small group of enemies, the situation was already in Han Ce's hands.

After a volley of arrows, the Northern Wilderness lost a lot of cavalry, and before they could hand over the front, they fell into disadvantage.

After the cavalry arrows in Youzhou were shot, there was a sound of "retreat to the position"!

Fleeing and chasing, the Youzhou cavalry never loved to fight, from the time they began to attack now, it has been half an hour, there has not been a head-to-head confrontation, and there has not been a single casualty!

The cavalry of the Northern Wilderness chased out ten miles, but did not catch up with the cavalry of Youzhou at all, and finally the horn of retreat appeared in the land of the mountains, and the chasing soldiers of the Northern Wilderness reined in the horses, stopped the pursuit, and prepared to retreat.

When the cavalry of Youzhou heard the retreat of the Northern Wilderness, they also reined in the reins of their horses and turned their horses to look at the cavalry of the Northern Wilderness.

This made the Northern Wilderness cavalry at a loss, and there was chaos, some people wanted to fight with the Youzhou cavalry, and some people wanted to follow the order to retreat quickly.

If you retreat, your side will become the pursued party, and the Youzhou cavalry will definitely chase you, and there has been a phenomenon of dying before fighting, so it will become a situation of fleeing before fighting, which will affect morale very much!

The Northern Wilderness cavalry gritted their teeth and stabbed forward with their spears, which was preparing to hedge with the Youzhou cavalry!

The real confrontation is about to begin, and at this moment, the scouts are coming!

"Report to Qu Chang, after investigation, most of the cavalry in Youzhou has rushed to the city of the extreme east!"

"What?" These words made Ling Yi and them all jump, they thought that the trap set by the Northern Ring Road here would be the burial place of the cavalry, but they didn't expect that Han Ce actually let the cavalry attack the city!

The cavalry attacked the city, this was the first time Ling Yi heard about it, and he hurriedly asked: "What is the situation in the city of the extreme east?"

The scout replied: "It is only called for war, not siege, and as long as the city of the extreme east opens the gate and prepares to meet the battle, the Youzhou cavalry will attack with arrows, and then retreat, and will not face the battle head-on at all." ”

"What is this Han Ce's idea? Originally, I thought that their cavalry was mainly dealing with this side, wanting to use 10,000 cavalry to lure ambush soldiers to appear, and then most of them attacked, first annihilating these 10,000 cavalry in the Northern Wilderness, and occupying the battlefield advantage, but I didn't expect them to run to the city of the extreme east, this Han Ce really used soldiers strangely, I don't understand!" Ling Yi shook his head and said.

Hou Aoxuan took over Ling Yi's words: "I still have no experience, it turns out that I can't even catch up with one thousandth of others, no wonder my father always says, soldiers are treacherous! I have a lot to learn, a lot!"

Just as a few people were talking, the 20,000 cavalry in front of them finally fought together, and in an instant, Ling Yi found a situation, the Youzhou cavalry in front of him was actually all martial arts strength, and there were also many warriors, including martial artists and great martial artists.

In this battle, there is no suspense, the Youzhou cavalry attacked for 400 miles, and it can be said that the first battle was successful!
