Chapter 407: Sharpening the Knife

"Sharpening knives?"

After hearing these two words, Li Dingguo's whole person became quite excited.

Isn't all they need to do for this newly formed cavalry team is to sharpen their knives?

If the knife is not sharpened, how can it become sharp?

"Yes, that's what your lord said!" The herald who reported the news also smiled and said to Li Dingguo.

"Tinghui, our chance has come!" Li Dingguo's injury has almost recovered, and after hearing that there is a fight, the whole person is inexplicably excited.

Huang Tinghui also smiled when he saw Li Dingguo's extremely excited expression.

He hadn't fought the barbarians head-on, and now it was a good opportunity.

"Dingguo!"

"I've got something good for me!"

"When you get to the battlefield, I'll let you know how powerful these things are!"

Huang Tinghui sold a pass, even if he had enough cavalry to rival the barbarian soldiers.

He wasn't prepared to fight these barbarian soldiers to the end.

The so-called soldiers do not tire of deception, this is the truth.

Needless to say, Li Dingguo's friendship with Huang Tinghui is self-proclaiming, although Li Dingguo boasts that he can overpower Huang Tinghui in terms of force.

But he didn't think that his talent in marching and fighting could be compared to Huang Tinghui.

After all, Li Dingguo also learned many tactics and tactics from Huang Tinghui.

After agreeing on the route of the march, Li Dingguo and Huang Tinghui led more than 2,000 cavalry to the east of Datong.

According to the informant, part of Hulu's cavalry had already infiltrated the east of Datong Town.

After leaving the barracks near Datong Town, the weather changed abruptly.

Dense black clouds covered the sky, and rain poured down from the sky like sluice gates.

It only made the soldiers in armor feel a chill all over their bodies.

It is close to the Liuhe, Chenghe and Qingjian rivers near Datong Town.

The trail chosen by Huang Tinghui and Li Dingguo was washed away by the rain and was a little muddy.

This sudden rain had a great impact on the march.

Even people who survive in harsh conditions all year round will probably be a little unbearable.

At this time, this cavalry marched across the vast field in the order of the left flank, right flank, left wait, right wait, and the middle army.

In order to better understand the dynamic situation of the entire battlefield.

The scouts sent out were scattered throughout the vast wilderness in order to get the enemy's intelligence at the first opportunity.

I don't know how long I have been traveling, but near a forest, the scout rode his horse and galloped in the direction of Huang Tinghui and Li Dingguo.

"General!"

"There is an enemy!" The scout said to Li Dingguo.

"How many?" Li Dingguo's brows furrowed, and he looked at the scout and asked.

"The subordinates didn't dare to observe for too long, but it should be more than two hundred people!"

"This group of barbarian soldiers is rampage through the wilderness, and some are unscrupulous!"

Hearing the scout say this, Li Dingguo's fists clenched tightly.

From the information of the herald, Li Dingguo already knew that the barbarians had conquered several counties of the Central Plains Dynasty when they went south.

Therefore, these barbarians were able to infiltrate their forces not far from Datong Town.

However, their posture seems to be too arrogant.

Ran rampant through the enemy's hinterland.

Isn't this just a naked slap in the face of these soldiers?

"A trick to lure the enemy!"

"Those big guys, they should also come in handy!" Huang Tinghui reminded Li Dingguo in his ear at the right time.

Although with the strength in Li Dingguo's hands, it would not be too much of a problem to eat the more than 200 barbarian cavalry in one bite.

But the number of barbarian cavalry was not just over two hundred.

Get the most out of the battle at the lowest cost.

This is the question that the generals should take into account.

Li Dingguo looked at the big guy carried by a few soldiers not far away, and he also nodded.

Since there is such a good thing, of course it is necessary to use it.

There's an old saying, isn't it called that soldiers don't get tired of cheating?

"I'm going to fetch them!" Li Dingguo immediately spoke.

"As a general, how can you easily get involved in danger?"

"You should be arranging and directing!" Huang Tinghui said to Li Dingguo.

Li Dingguo thought that his identity and position were different now, and what Huang Tinghui said made sense.

So he didn't object.

After getting a few of his trusted soldiers ready, he began to prepare for an ambush.

According to the arrangement of Huang Tinghui and Li Dingguo, those cavalry rode around the neighborhood to ensure that their figures appeared in front of these barbarian soldiers.

Sure enough, it worked.

Seeing that the cavalry of the Great Sheng Kingdom appeared, the interest of the barbarian generals suddenly rose.

The whole person also became inexplicably excited.

"There are even cavalry of the Great Sheng Kingdom!"

"This weak and incompetent Southern Dynasty actually has the spare strength to train cavalry!"

Licking his lips, the barbarian general's gaze was full of greed.

"General, this team of Han cavalry should be scouts!"

"I'm here to spy on our army!" A soldier said to the barbarian general.

"We can't let them escape, since they dare to dangle in front of our army, don't think about leaving easily!"

"Sons!"

"Kill them all!!"

"Make this group of helpless Han people our hors d'oeuvres!"

After saying that, the barbarian general instigated the war horse under his crotch and rushed towards the scouts.

"They're coming!"

"Hooked!!"

"These brutes!" Looking at the barbarian cavalry rushing to kill, a few soldiers who were used as bait not only did not have fear, but had an indescribable excitement.

"These fools!!"

"If it weren't for the general's repeated orders, Lao Tzu would really want to raise his sword and fight with these barbarian cavalry for a while!"

"Let them be so rampant!" Looking at the barbarian soldiers who rushed to kill, the cavalry of the Dasheng Kingdom with a full face of flesh said viciously.

Watching these barbarian soldiers trample on the land of Dasheng Country unscrupulously, as a soldier guarding this land, he felt an indescribable unhappiness.

However, after a period of training, they also know that military orders are like mountains, and naturally they will not do anything against military orders.

So when these barbarian soldiers rushed up, they scattered in all directions.

"Woo Woo ......"

"Woo Woo ......"

"Woo Woo ......"

Countless arrows were volleyed in the direction of the soldiers.

But because of the distance, even if the archery skills of these barbarian soldiers are quite good.

But they couldn't hurt the soldiers in the slightest.

At the same time, this group of barbarian soldiers had gradually stepped into the encirclement set up for them by Li Dingguo and Huang Tinghui.

"Ready!" Li Dingguo gestured and looked straight ahead.

At this time, several soldiers who were acting as "bait" rode horses to splash the stagnant water.

The barbarian soldiers who followed them were in the wind and rain, as if a rain of arrows were shooting over.

By the time this group of arrogant enemy horsemen rushed to a distance of about 300 paces, the sharp weapon that Huang Tinghui had prepared could finally play a role.

I saw that in ambush in the woods, the two bed crossbows with the longest range shot at these barbarian soldiers who rushed to kill first.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Bang Bang Bang Bang ......" has already been pulled to the extreme, and the bed crossbow that has accumulated its strength to the limit is activated in a short instant.

I saw two stout crossbow arrows ejected from the bed crossbow and shoot out at the barbarian cavalry who were arrogantly killing.

The extremely sharp bed crossbow directly hit the two enemy horsemen in one shot, and the powerful aftermath even passed through the body of the brute soldier in one breath, piercing through the brute behind him.

If you walk in, you can almost see the blood flowers of powerful crossbow arrows bursting on the brute's body.

In addition, the barbarian soldiers who were hit by the aftermath of the crossbow arrows were directly taken away by the crossbow.

Flew out of the warhorse.

The sabber-wielding barbarian soldiers slammed to the ground, splashing a puddle of water.

The thigh of another barbarian soldier was directly nailed to the crossbow arrow and the horse's body, and the war horse fell, and the barbarian soldier didn't have time to react at all, so he was directly crushed to death by the war horse.

The bed crossbow shot achieved such a strong result, and Huang Tinghui was also a little enthusiastic when he saw it.

However, after these brutes were prepared, the next battle was not so easy to deal with.
