Gao Yeyun said: "The forwards of Zhongxuan Kingdom's army are all cavalry. The terrain of a hundred feet is not too wide, but it is not a problem for five hundred cavalry to charge collectively.

If the opponent relies on their elite cavalry to break through our ordinary defenses, there shouldn't be much of a problem, as our army will be hard to stop."

The deputy general said: "If we fight head-on, our terrain advantage will be completely gone. And no matter how powerful our cavalry is, it will not be able to completely tear apart the Zhongxuan Kingdom army, and it will probably be stopped.

When the time comes for a melee, no matter how strong our morale is, we can't fight even if we fight five thousand against one hundred thousand."

Gao Yeyun Gao said: "Our numbers are too small to confront the Zhongxuan Kingdom's army head-on."

Gao Yehua thought hard for a moment, then turned his gaze to the cliff, his eyes brightening.

"We can set up an ambush and arrange some infantry to ambush on the cliff. At that time, not only the archers can be effective, but also the rocks can be smashed down."

Gao Yeyun heard these words and said: "You finally thought of a good idea. We got here first. We should set up an ambush. It will definitely come in handy. What else is there to do?"

The lieutenant general said: "I really don't know what to do, so I would like to ask King Yun for instructions."

Gao Yeyun said: "The vanguard troops commanded by the Zhongxuan Kingdom are all cavalry. The place where the cavalry can best display its power is in the plains and open areas.

If we guard this canyon, even if we set up an ambush, it will be difficult to stop his army. Why not change the terrain here so that his cavalry cannot show its strength." "Change the terrain?" The deputy general was confused.

, don’t know what to do at all.

Gao Yeyun pointed to the canyon below the cliff, "This canyon is all flat. There is no way to stop the cavalry. Why don't we give it an extra high ground? What do you think?"

After hearing these words, the deputy general finally understood: "As expected of King Yun, he is really smart. I will do it now."

The lieutenant general left in a hurry and ordered the army to move quickly, move stones, sand and soil into the canyon, and build a high ground in the canyon.

Not only were the 5,000-strong army busy, but some people in the border areas also came to help with their families, and each of them put their best effort into building high ground.

In just one day, a plateau about three feet high and seven feet long appeared in the originally gentle canyon.

The front part was built as a hard wall about one foot thick, and the back part was piled with various materials and tamped down so that people could stand on it without any problem. The last part was made into a gentle slope for people to climb up.

The second day.

Gao Yehua and one person stood at the entrance of Linhu Gorge in person.

When the Zhongxuan Kingdom's army was only one mile away from the entrance of Linhu Gorge, the Zhongxuan Kingdom's general waved his command flag to stop the army.

He rushed up to the entrance of Linhu Gorge with only a few soldiers and stared at Gao Yeyun: "Are you Gao Yeyun, the King Yun with great military exploits?"

Gao Yeyun and the general of Zhongxuan Kingdom were only a hundred feet apart. Hearing this, he said, "Yes, I am Gao Yeyun.

Your Excellency should be a powerful general of the Zhongxuan Kingdom. It’s a real honor to meet you here. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

The general of Zhongxuan Kingdom said loudly: "You and I are enemies, so there is no need to say polite words.

I ask you, you actually

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

What do you want to do by blocking the entrance of Linhu Gorge with just one person? Do you want to persuade me to retreat with just a few words?"

"If you can stop eight thousand elite cavalry with just a few words, then the bards will be invincible. I don't have such extravagant hopes that I can make you retreat just by talking.

This king is actually here specially waiting for you, waiting for you to die!"

Gao Yeyun's previous words were all polite, but his last words exuded a tyrannical murderous aura.

Leng Sen's murderous aura made the general of Zhongxuan Kingdom unable to help but feel the pressure. He subconsciously looked around and saw that there was no big army ambushing him.

An officer next to General Zhongxuan pointed at Gao Yeyun and said loudly: "You are so loud. You know that we have eight thousand cavalry, but you still say that you are waiting for us to die!"

Don’t think that just because you have won a few battles, you can act wild in front of anyone! Do you think our Zhongxuan Kingdom is easy to deal with?

Our general has also experienced hundreds of battles, and he gained this high position with one sword and one shot!"

"I think he's just a foolhardy man!" Gao Yeyun sneered.

The leader of the Zhongxuan Kingdom was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "What on earth do you mean?"

Gao Yeyun said: "Don't be too busy getting angry, I just kindly remind you that Linhu Gorge is a dangerous place, and I have made complete preparations there.

Not only can it block your 8,000 cavalry, but it can also kill every single one of you. If you still want to survive, you must not enter the Linhu Gorge and quickly go around the end of the mountain range to be safe.

I am a very kind person, so please don’t be unappreciative.”

After Gao Yeyun's words came out, the general of Zhongxuan Kingdom was puzzled as to what the other party's purpose was.

As the coach, Gao Yeyun appeared here at this time, and said that Linhu Gorge cannot be entered, otherwise it will be a dead end. It is really confusing and makes people wonder what kind of medicine he sells in the gourd.

The general of the Zhongxuan Kingdom was suspicious by nature and thought too much. An officer next to him whispered: "I guess the reason why he showed up here is that he said that Linhu Gorge was not allowed to enter and asked our army to bypass it. It was probably him.

They have ordered the army to evacuate and come to stop us, hoping to delay our march."

The leader of the Zhongxuan Kingdom has strong confidence that with his eight thousand cavalry, he can easily break through the borders of the Fenglin Empire.

Thinking that he had defeated Gao Yeyun's plan, General Zhongxuan said: "Thank you very much for your kindness.

But I am most afraid of trouble. I must leave Linhuxia, and I must get your head!"

"Since you don't appreciate it and don't listen to my advice, then just come over here! See if you can get the head on my neck."

Gao Yeyun put down his words, called his lieutenant, turned the horse's head, and returned to Linhu Gorge.

After Gao Yeyun and his lieutenants left, General Zhongxuan ordered the army to continue moving forward with his command flag, with the vanguard going first and sending some scouts into Linhu Gorge to conduct reconnaissance.

The 8,000-strong army was divided into three square formations, the vanguard, the middle army, and the rear army, and entered the Linhu Gorge in turn. After all of them entered the Linhu Gorge, the line from beginning to end was almost several miles long.

The army kept moving forward, slowly passing through the Linhu Gorge, always prepared for an ambush that might appear at any time.

The team continued to move forward and finally reached the end

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

At the last turn, you only need to go straight south for two or three miles to exit Linhu Gorge.

The soldiers at the front of the vanguard square passed the turn and were shocked to see a high wall coming out not far from the southern entrance of Linhu Gorge. "Look, there is actually a city wall!"

The next moment, arrows rained down from both sides of the cliff, and logs and gravel were thrown down.

Many cavalry fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, or were hit by rocks or logs, causing them to fall off their horses.

The vanguard is responsible for exploring the path, so the troops are not concentrated. It is the longest of the three phalanxes at the beginning and the end. But even so, a round of arrows and falling rocks and logs caused a lot of casualties.

Before the second round of arrow rain fell, the cavalry had already launched a counterattack. The archers fired arrows at the top of the cliffs on both sides. The troops on both sides of the cliff quickly moved toward the center to avoid falling rocks and logs.

The canyon was five to six hundred meters wide. By the time the cavalry gathered in the middle, the stones and logs prepared on the cliff were no longer effective, and only bows and arrows could still work.

With the help of bows and arrows, and the advantage of attacking from above, the Fenlin Empire infantry archers ambushing above were able to continuously shoot down the cavalry of the General of Zhongxuan Kingdom below.

On the other hand, the generals and cavalry of Zhongxuan Kingdom gathered in the middle of the canyon, shooting arrows upwards, and were completely at a disadvantage.

Although it could hit the archers above, there were many casualties.

Unexpectedly, the Fenglin Empire's army actually set up an ambush here.

Looking at the battle situation ahead, the general of Zhongxuan Kingdom knew that it was absolutely impossible to waste this much time and immediately gave the order.

"The cavalry archers are suppressing the two wings, covering the army and rushing forward. Kill the city wall that appears out of nowhere for me. Break through the city wall and go up the cliff to kill the ambush soldiers!"

After the general of Zhongxuan Kingdom issued the military order, the vanguard army immediately carried out the order. The cavalry archers fired arrows from both wings to suppress the ambush, and the cavalrymen clenched their long guns and headed towards the city wall.

Gao Yeyun was waiting on the temporarily built city wall, waiting for those cavalry to come over.

One thousand meters, five hundred meters, three hundred meters, getting closer and closer, the nearest one has rushed within a hundred meters, Gao Yeyun shouted, "Shoot!"

The archers lined up neatly on the city wall had already been prepared. After receiving the order, they immediately bent their bows and fired arrows. A hail of arrows shot over them, right in the middle of the charging cavalry formation.

A round of arrows rained down, and at least two to three hundred cavalry were killed and many were injured. Among the hundreds of people who rushed over in the first place, only a few dozen people rushed to the bottom of the city wall, trying to climb up.

A round of arrows was fired, and the archers immediately bent their bows and fired again. As for the cavalry rushing below, the spearmen on the city wall immediately stepped forward and stabbed all the cavalry to death one by one with their spears.

There were two groups of archers on the city wall, one shooting arrows and the other bending bows. Two groups continued to shoot rain of arrows, but they still could not completely stop the cavalry charge.

More and more cavalry rushed under the city wall, and the spearmen took more and more shots. Gradually, a lot of mounts and cavalry corpses accumulated under the city wall.

Although the Zhongxuan Kingdom's general's army is large in number, the Linhu Gorge is only so big, and the troops are shrinking in the middle, so there are not many troops that can be deployed.

Although under his command, the forward troops attacked the city wall again and again, but each charge was blocked by the hail of guns and arrows from the Fenglin Empire, leaving behind corpses one after another.
