When the three of them heard the news, they hurriedly climbed up the mountain bag, raised their eyes to look, and sure enough, they saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and went straight to the east.

"They're pretty cunning." The White Lotus Sect Master took a sip and said, "Knowing that we are waiting here, we have to take a detour back." ”

"We can't let them run, there will never be such a good opportunity again." Shi Chenglu hurriedly said. He needs a few heads from that brother too much to stabilize the hearts of the Mingjiao people.

"Go after it." Maitreya Sect Master also said: "Don't be brutal this time, entangle them, and wait for me to follow with the infantry." ”

"Okay." Shi Chenglu and the White Lotus Sect Leader nodded, and the former reminded again: "That brother is very cunning, to prevent them from breaking the tail of the gecko and deliberately luring us away." ”

"Hahaha, what a loss you have suffered from them, be careful like this?" The White Lotus Sect Leader smiled disdainfully: "How many soldiers and horses do they have in total, and they dare to divide their troops?" That's pure and tired! ”

"What you say makes sense, so let's take three thousand people north to see the situation." Maitreya taught the main way.

"Okay." Shi Chenglu nodded, looking at the smoke and dust in the distance, the main force of the Ming army should be to the east, even if there are those left, there will not be too many. Three thousand people are enough.

Shi Chenglu and the White Lotus Sect Leader hurriedly got on their horses and led the crowd away.

The Maitreya Sect Master also beckoned his subordinates, and with five thousand infantry, he followed behind. He himself led the remaining 3,000 men north along the road.

~~

But he said that Shi Chenglu and the White Lotus Sect Leader chased more than ten miles eastward, and they felt that something was wrong.

"How are they so fast? Not afraid to tire the horse to the ground? Shi Chenglu asked suspiciously. For war horses, running with a heavily armed cavalry is extremely physically demanding. Therefore, when the cavalry marches, they let the war horses on foot, and only when they are fighting, they are willing to let the war horses run.

"Patronizing and fleeing for your life." The White Lotus Sect Leader said, "How precious are the lives of those princes? What about running all the horses to death? As long as they're not dead. ”

"Hmm......" Shi Chenglu thought about it, gritted his teeth and twitched his hips: "Keep up!" ”

The war horse suffers and runs wildly!

In this way, he chased for twenty miles, and finally caught up.

After seeing the truth under the smoke, Shi Chenglu and the others were dumbfounded.

I saw that the number of horses was far less than they had imagined, only thirty or forty. The reason why they ran ten times the momentum of the war horses was because they had branches tied to the back of their butts......

The number of Ming troops on the horses was even smaller, only a dozen, and most of the horses were empty.

"Hahaha, I've been fooled." When the Ming army saw that it was recognized, he mocked loudly. After changing horses in front of their eyes, they were not in a hurry to run away, just watched from a distance whether they chased or not?

"Damn, I'm so angry!" The White Lotus Sect Leader exploded his lungs and said, "Kill them!" ”

"Don't waste time, go back quickly, Lao Huang's side is a bad thing!" Shi Chenglu was not interested in being angry, he only wanted to assassinate the king and kill him.

After speaking, he took his subordinates and ran back.

The White Lotus Sect Leader and his subordinates wanted to catch up with the dozen or so Ming troops, but the war horses under the opponent's crotch had been running empty before, and their physical strength was much better than their horses, and after chasing for a while, the distance was getting farther and farther. The White Lotus Sect Master returned helplessly.

~~

However, it was said that the king of Jin used a simple strategy to lure away the main force of the enemy, and his brothers took the Yulin soldiers to lurk under the mountain beam where the enemy army was hiding before.

I planned to wait until it got dark before running to Qishui at night, but soon the scouts came to report that 3,000 enemy soldiers were coming towards them.

"Hehe, you, your plan didn't work." The second brother laughed teasingly.

"It still worked." The fourth lay on the ground, listened to it for a while, got up and said in a deep voice: "The ones who came are all infantry, which means that the cavalry has been led away." ”

"That's nature." The third child smiled proudly and said without nervousness: "Three thousand infantry? Native chicken tile dog. ”

The relaxed self-confidence of the three highnesses infected the Yulin soldiers and made them relax as well.

"Follow me, brethren." His Royal Highness King Yan is neatly draped, the horizontal knife is immediate, and the cloud road is heroic.

"Kill them and go home for the New Year!" His Royal Highness the King of Jin also carried a gun on the horse, a white horse and a silver gun, and a heroic posture.

"!" His Royal Highness the King of Qin only has one word, but he is riding on a big black horse and has a mace of unknown human tissue hanging in his hand, which is the best declaration.

"Whoa!" All the soldiers also put up their weapons one after another, and followed the three highnesses out of the mountain and rode up the mountain to meet the enemy.

Seeing the oncoming more than 400 riders, the Maitreya Sect Master knew that he had been fooled, and he naturally complained in his heart. He had to say loudly: "Don't panic, the sect members, there are only three or four hundred of them, and we have three or four thousand. Four thousand against four hundred, the advantage is mine! ”

"Whoever kills one person is a bodhisattva, and whoever kills ten people is a bodhisattva who lives ten!" Then his 'Dharma Transmission Arhats' recited the verses aloud.

The three thousand followers also read along, and this is the sentence over and over again:

"Whoever kills one person is a bodhisattva, and whoever kills ten people is a bodhisattva who lives ten!"

Then in the Maitreya array, there was a magical, or rather terrifying scene, and I saw that the expressions of the disciples gradually became hideous, and their breathing became a lot heavier.

Although this Maitreya Sect has a tendency to merge with the Ming Sect and the White Lotus Sect, it also has a unique secret technique, which the other two schools do not have. For example, this method of brainwashing believers and distributing psychotropic drugs. In normal times, you can firmly control the thoughts of the believers, and at critical moments, you can also use specific methods to make the believers feel no pain in a short period of time and are not afraid of death.

At that time, Ming Yuzhen relied on this trick of Maitreya to establish the 'Great Xia' in Sichuan, ban Buddhism, build the Maitreya Buddha Hall, and set Maitreya as the state religion.

However, the side effects of this trick are also very large, and the followers will be confused and sick after that, so Maitreya does not dare to use it.

But the Maitreya Sect Master knew very well that if he didn't use this trick, hundreds of cavalry would rush over like thunder in the future, and his infantry would definitely be frightened, and they might even collapse without a fight......

~~

After the tea, the two sides were only a hundred feet apart.

The first to charge was actually the army of the Maitreya Sect. Wearing white hats and coats, and holding long and short blades, they roared and surged up like a tide.

"Charge!" Zhu Di grabbed the horse's belly and rushed out first.

Zhu Fan followed.

The Yulin soldiers also urged the war horse, gradually accelerating, and after more than a dozen steps, it was already like thunder!

"Shoot!" Zhu Zhang took the bow and arrows, and as soon as he entered the range, he released the bowstring.

The long arrow whistled and pierced through a Maitreya soldier with no armor, and the arrow was inexhaustible, and then shot into the chest of the disciple behind him.

The soldiers of the Yulin Army also shot long arrows one after another, trying to cause as much damage as possible.

Then when the two sides were about 20 zhang apart, His Royal Highness the King of Jin suddenly whistled, and the Ming army was well-trained into two teams, and swept towards the left and right wings of the enemy, and there was no meaning of short-handed combat.

Cavalry fights infantry, and fools get close.
