Three hundred and fortieth eight chapters vulnerable
The Chu soldiers did not dare to shoot at each other, so they turned around and wanted to evacuate.
The rear army rushed to attack half a stick of incense, and suddenly stopped. Xiang Guan didn't know why, and he was anxious and angry. Suddenly he heard the soldiers say that there was a strange object blocking the rear.
"Spread out! Avoid the arrows first!" Xiang Guan roared, secretly sighing that the enemy had been prepared for a long time, but when they came, they must have secretly set it up not long ago!
When the generals heard this, they hurriedly retreated to the left and right.
Only then did Xiang Guan see the blocking object from the gap. A piece of wood was placed horizontally, supported by four slanting wood. Nearly ten long iron spears passed through the horizontal wood, and their tips were pointed straight at the Chu army. They formed a group.
Dozens of groups lined up in a row blocking the back road, with no more than five floors inside and outside.
"The deployment is so fast, it should not be underestimated." Xiang Guan thought secretly, raised his halberd to deflect the poisonous arrows, and followed the soldiers to retreat left and right.
Boom——
The cavalryman, who was rushing to avoid the arrows, did not pay attention to his steps and tripped over a rope that had been set up at an unknown time. Although he fell off his horse, he found that there were no thorns on the ground and he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Watch your step!"
The cavalry in the front roared, and the cavalry in the rear understood what was happening. They grasped the reins and jumped over. They looked towards the direction from which the arrow was shot and galloped forward.
"Shameless villain! Die quickly!"
The angry soldiers stormed southward, but Ren Ni appeared in public view with his hands cut behind his back.
"Three, two, one, down!"
In an instant, the Chu cavalry's feet were completely empty, and both men and horses fell into the huge pit.
The huge pit is filled with poisonous iron caltrops!
"Despicable! Watch your step!"
The soldiers who fell into the pit did not forget to remind their comrades, but were surprised to find that as the pit in front of them sank, the solid land behind them collapsed one after another. Even if they were reminded, they would still fall into the ground.
The sound of screams could not be heard, and the front hooves of the crowned horse were flying in the air. It was too late to control it. In desperation, I had no choice but to jump off the horse and take refuge.
Dust was flying all around. Although the 30,000-strong army only lost a few hundred, the fear in their hearts was greater than reality. The surviving soldiers no longer dared to act rashly. They stared at Ren Ni waving at them and leaving.
"Commander Xiang, this place is not far from Zhongli, what should we do?" the panicked soldiers asked.
"Don't panic. Although this place is dangerous, the people who have just been here haven't been killed quickly, which shows that their successors are powerless. Be careful when you step forward, don't give Mei Yi a chance to breathe!" Xiang Guan said, taking a breath.
"Take orders!"
There were more than 20,000 cavalrymen in the Chu area who were able to defeat hundreds of thousands of troops. They had to dismount their horses to explore the road and move slowly. Their halberds beat the ground back and forth as they advanced.
It wasn't until the sky turned dark and people and horses were exhausted that we were only halfway through the journey.
"Commander Xiang, why don't we camp on the spot today? We'll do it again tomorrow..."
"No! We must fight quickly to respond to Commander Sima."
Xiang Guan interrupted, and suddenly saw the yellowing silhouettes of people moving on the horizon, and the soldiers subconsciously retreated. When the approaching people gradually came, they realized that they were Yue cavalry, so they put away their fear.
Without warning, Yu Hua's harmless troops divided into two groups and attacked from the left and right.
"Xiang Guan! If you don't want to die here, flee back to Chu!" Yao Wuyu shouted, waving his arms.
"Is it just a matter of escaping back? I thought you wanted the Chu Kingdom to be returned to the Yue Territory." Xiang Guan said with a smile.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the land of Wu and Yue was the current land of Western Chu. At that time, the Chu land was Linjiang, Henan Kingdom, Hengshan and other places in the east of Bashu. It was regarded as a land s
"If you repay it, that's not a bad idea." Hua Wuhai sneered, too lazy to restrain himself.
When the Chu cavalry heard these words, their fatigue immediately dissipated, and murderous aura enveloped their bodies, directing a direct attack on them.
The two Yue commanders knew that Xiang Guan's army was exhausted, so they treated the other side as the stronger one but the stronger one, and took advantage of their superior strength to attack them.
Not far to the south, Ren Ni led a group of knights, throwing copper coins on a piece of silk cloth, and betting on who would win the battle.
"Capture the Yue people, and mobilize the Yue people with all their strength. This battle will be won."
"The Chu army is exhausted and they must escort the Yue people."
There were mountains of copper coins to bet on the victory of the Yue people, and only Ren Ni placed the bet on the victory of the Chu people.
"Ren Lingyin's custody is too small, not enough for us to divide it up." A knight said with a smile.
Ren Ni chuckled and shook his head, "Winning while the Chu people are tired is a way to win, but it's not enough at this moment. If Hu Zhen is here, there is still a way to fight. Without further ado, Hua Wuhai is too impatient, and this battle will be lost.
.”
The knights didn't believe it at first and looked to the north with a faint smile. The vanguards of the two armies had just engaged in battle, and the Yue people ran away with only their horses. The corpses of the cavalry rolled down between their hooves and were trampled into pulp.
The Chu cavalry, who were originally tired, were like an indestructible meat grinder, pushing forward horizontally, and no one could stop them wherever they passed.
The knights didn't know that this group of cavalry was enough to drive away 560,000 people and kill more than 100,000 people. They just looked at the unbelievable scene with blank faces. Although Ren Ni was on guard, he just thought that the Chu soldiers or
It was a miserable victory, and I didn't expect it to be a one-sided situation.
Before long, Hua Wuhai boasted of his excellent riding skills. When he saw that all the soldiers had left without returning, the enemy army was still standing still, and he felt bad. After their eyes met, he came straight towards Xiangguan with a spear. On the way, he saw
The Chu cavalry stopped them, and with two against two, they were close to winning. They tried to advance again, but when they encountered four people blocking them, they were trapped and unable to take another step forward.
"Huh! These are the two commanders of the Yue people? That's all." Xiang Guan flicked his halberd and said with a bloody smile, "There is no need to stop you, let the two of you come here. I, the commander, need to learn a lesson."
The four Chu cavalrymen dispersed, but the remaining two were angry at being slighted and wanted to ride their horses to kill them.
Ren Ao felt something was wrong, so he stood up and shouted, "The two commanders led the Taihou army to fight, we must not be destroyed in a battle!"
The two men, who were about to lose their minds, calmed down, swung their spears to scatter the surrounding soldiers, ordered a retreat, and hurriedly fled south.
The knights shot poisonous arrows again, hoping to help the Vietnamese army retreat, but they saw the Chu cavalry on the right wing breaking away from the team and heading straight towards the group.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
Ren Ni secretly cursed the Yue people for being unbearable, mounted his horse and ran away, no longer caring about the copper coins on the ground.
The knight wanted to shoot an arrow to slow down the pursuers, but when he took aim, he made his horse lower down out of thin air. But he had no choice but to give up and rode his horse with all his heart just to escape.
Occasionally, a knight throws caltrops indiscriminately, inexplicably injuring friendly troops. In order to protect himself, he still bites the bullet and sprinkles all the caltrops he carries. The fallen corpses of friendly soldiers are enough to slow down the pursuit of the pursuers.
The Chu army divided into two groups, one chasing the two commanders, and the other chasing Ren Ni. The two explained that there were enemy troops "exploring the road" in front of them, so there was no need to worry about setting up an ambush, and the war horses were flying with hooves.
"Quick, run away to the Huai River and get on a boat to take refuge!"
Ren Xiao yelled, regretting not setting a big trap along the way, and even scolded Mei Yi dozens of times for being careless in responding to the enemy.
Most of the hundreds of knights have been lost. If they had not relied on their familiarity with the terrain to escape the pursuers many times, they would have been wiped out long ago.
Until Ren Ni's throat hurt like smoke, and finally he saw a piece of water with no visible shore lying in front of him.
