Volume I, Section 74, Bad Moves

The panic of the fleeing ant thieves quickly spread to all the armies on the riverbank, and the damage caused by the chaotic stampede in the dark night outweighed the damage caused by the enemy cavalry. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The ant thief, who lacked clothes and armor, was defenseless in the face of such a sudden cavalry onslaught, and the march across the river at night was full of fear for these inexperienced recruits, and this sudden attack was magnified to the extreme.

"Don't fight! Stay in formation and rush out!" He Qianzhang angrily scolded his subordinates around him who were a little out of control because of the bloody stimulation.

Any soldier in this situation will inevitably be swayed by fierce emotions, especially under the psychological advantage of being condescending and can control the life and death of the other party, the Ezhou cavalry and the Gwangju cavalry are stimulated to be violent and ferocious.

At this time, they just want to swing the knife, swing the knife, swing the knife again!

Kill, kill, kill!

Kill everything that dares to appear in front of you and stand in your way!

The combat effectiveness of this infantry phalanx was obviously much stronger than the first one, although it was broken through by its own cavalry, but the bravery and tenacity shown in the battle on the spot was still quite worth expecting, of course, their stubborn resistance could not change the outcome of the war.

Qin Zaidao, who served as the right wing, took the lead in launching fire arrows into the chaotic river when he broke out of the second defensive circle, and more than 100 fire arrows landed on the boats and rafts that had just had time to dock, which immediately caused another wave of chaos.

The people on the river bank shouted and neighed and the firelight in the river turned the entire south bank of Huaishui into a Shura field, and Han Bale, who had a sharp rise and fall in his chest and abdomen, watched this wave of enemies gallop away on horseback, and the anger in his heart was almost difficult to suppress.

At one point, he wanted to rush into the enemy line and kill a few enemies to vent his anger, but the remaining reason told him that it would not help the overall situation, and if the enemy had a second wave of attacks, then he would be responsible for the absence of his own vanguard commander.

The two infantry phalanxes of 5,000 people watched as they were ravaged by the other party, Liu Er Mazi was seriously injured, and Zhang Laozhi also had a deep scar on his shoulder, and half of the yellow robe was soaked with blood, and he gritted his teeth and the whole team.

The only thing that made Han Bale feel a little at ease was that Zhou Zirong's bow and crossbow team was still quite complete, and if it weren't for their powerful sniping, I was afraid that the attackers would still be involved in Xie Crooked Neck's army, which had just had time to go ashore.

Like a group of haunting and unpredictable night owls, the cavalry quickly burrowed into the darkness and disappeared into the light of the torches on the river beach.

Running out of several miles in one go, He Qianzhang was a little relieved, the first few horsemen had already raised torches to lead the way for the rear team, and the formation of the entire cavalry team had already been disrupted, and it was a great success to be able to keep up.

The valley by the river was getting narrower and narrower, and Jiang Feng rode his horse to catch up, signaling the cavalry to slow down. He Qianzhang immediately realized that something was wrong, and as long as this guy showed up, there would be absolutely no good thing.

"What's going on?"

"Lord Ho, I'm afraid we'll have to go back again. Jiang Feng said with a smile on his face.

"Go back, are you crazy?" Before He Qianzhang could answer, a member of the Hu army next to him couldn't help but shout.

"Give me a reason. He Qianzhang took the reins of the horse, but his heart couldn't help but sink, but he still struggled to grit his teeth and say word by word.

"At the front end is a semi-arc-shaped ridge, hollowed out by the rising water, and a man may be able to barely climb over it, but a horse may not. Jiang Feng said apologetically: "The terrain on this line we came over is steep and high, and it is all high ridges, and it is very difficult for horses to go up, so we have to go back." ”

"You already knew? This was designed by you, right? Jiang Feng, what is your intention?!" He Qianzhang asked sharply with fire in his eyes.

Even in the case of the enemy's unpreparedness, the five hundred horsemen to which he belonged paid the price of nearly one hundred horsemen, not including many of those who were wounded and painful.

Several Ezhou cavalrymen beside He Qianzhang had already pressed their hands on the horizontal knives at their waists, their eyes were like torches, and they glared angrily at this scheming "ally".

"Why did Lord He say this? You and I should belong to the alliance, won't I also fight with you in this battle and share it together? Aren't we the Gushi Army cavalry camp also pouring out of our pockets? In the face of the ant thieves, are we retreating and timid?" Jiang Feng said calmly: "If you think we don't do this, then what? Do you let them fight after they are ready to cross the Huai?"

"But why are you doing this?" He Qianzhang asked in a hissing voice that suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Without him, he will be born after death. Jiang Feng smiled indifferently and said: "The ant thief side was attacked, and the shock was uncertain, it was impossible to expect that our army would make a comeback, and the vigilance was slightly reduced, and we will fight back quickly, and we will definitely win a big victory!"

He Qianzhang stared at Jiang Feng stubbornly, the resentment in his heart was indescribable, but he also knew in his heart that what the other party said was correct, at this time, the enemy army was afraid that he would never expect that these hundreds of horsemen would dare to repeat the old tricks, it can be said that this second wave of raids was only afraid that the first wave of raids would be more unexpected, and the results achieved would be more brilliant.

It's just that attacking and killing this ant army doesn't have much practical significance for him, and the loss of his own cavalry is difficult to make up.

The other party is so carefully designed that he is afraid that he will make himself into trouble, forcing himself to act according to his wishes, and win the greatest results for him, which is really hateful.

"Lord He, you and I have no choice, Fang Cai's attack can't break the enemy's second army, for the ant thieves with more than 20,000 people, it will not hurt their vitality, and Gushi City may have to face a more ferocious attack from the ant thieves, so I have to take another risk, and now you have no choice, unless you are willing to let your cavalry become infantry!"

Jiang Feng could feel the resentment in the hearts of the Ezhou cavalry around him, but he didn't care, the Ezhou Du family could probably only use it once or twice, it would be a pity if he let it go, as for the future, I believe that on the basis of common interests, everything can be put aside.

"Let's go!" When this voice came out, even his voice became a little hoarse, He Qianzhang was speechless, and turned around.

At this moment, he didn't want to have any words with this guy, Du Sangongzi repeatedly warned himself to be careful of this person, and he was also cautious everywhere, but he didn't expect to fall in love with this guy.
