0430 Lost in the first battle

The horse hissed, ran like the wind, and the still bleeding knife shot wildly. Gu Xiaodao killed a civilian cavalryman in the direction of the breakthrough in an instant, and took the opportunity to take the bow and quiver from the civilian cavalry. The arrows carried by Gu Xiaodao had long been used up, otherwise he would not have to follow him like this. This large group of elite civil cavalry entangled and fought desperately to avoid causing the civilian army to shoot randomly.

Probably Gu Xiaodao's fierce and unexpected killing strategy, in the wrong circle of the rabbit, the severely damaged Shen Tugou, who was famous for his bravery in this group of civilian cavalry. His serious injury greatly shocked other people's will to fight, and finally let Gu Xiaodao break through them alone. The siege gained a temporary respite.

Gu Xiaodao took a quick walk. Gu Xiaodao checked the bow bag in his hand and couldn't help shouting unlucky. The bow was a good bow. The sinking bamboo bow used by the township soldiers was of quite good quality, and he did not know which official armory the civilian army snatched it from. However, the content of the arrow bag disappointed Gu Xiaodao. Originally His lowest expectation was to find four or five arrows in this arrowhead. Unexpectedly, he could not even do this minimum requirement, only two arrows.

After a fierce battle, Gu Xiaodao was worried about the safety of his uncle Gu Xilou and decided to change his marching route and led the crowd up the river from the Gallo River. On the way, he defeated a number of small troops of civilian troops and avoided two large civilian military forces. He rushed south along the Gallo River and marched into Galo.

However, Gu Xiaodao's wolves encountered trouble in the "river valley". The wolves rode lightly at a high speed, which made the front of the reconnaissance sentry. In the case of limited manpower and experience, the range of sentry detection can only be greatly narrowed, mainly focusing on the alert check in the direction of progress, and the alert protection of the flank cannot be done. Very strict.

In this case, when a civilian cavalry of more than 20,000 people suddenly inserted from the oblique thorn and rode between the riverbed of the "Galo River" to block Gu Xiaodao's way south of "Galo", there was no time for Gu Xiaodao to bypass the enemy, and an encounter suddenly occurred in Gu Xiaodao. A very reluctant place, a very unhappy time, inevitably broke out!

The wolves and the people's army collided head-on, and the wolves had less than 3,000 horses. No matter where you came from, the people's army was full of revenge for Shen Tugou and shouted to beat Gu Xiaodao's troops to death.

Gu Xiaodao's 3,000 wolf riders suddenly encountered 20,000 cavalry of the Ruixi Li Ganmin Army. However, in a short initial confrontation, they were scattered into two pieces and could not echo each other at the beginning and end.

Gu Xiaodao led a thousand cavalry to fight and walk in time. He fought with Li Gan's civilian army between the river valleys, suddenly east, sometimes south, suddenly west, and suddenly north. He tried to avoid confrontation with the civilian army, but from time he looked for the void from time. He rode from the flank of the civilian army, cut the flag, and left as soon as he left. If he left, this provocation attracted the people. The attack of most of the army allowed the other 2,000 horses to close their formation and get rid of the delintroopers, rush into the Ruibei Mountains to temporarily avoid the edge of the civilian army.

To be honest, Gu Xiaodao really dares not confront this army, which obviously looks like the elite army in the civilian army, because he still doesn't have much confidence in this cavalry force that has been formed for a short time. The army relies on coordination and discipline. And this is exactly the biggest weakness of this temporary assembly team.

Besides, even if these 3,000 lives have to gamble and sacrifice, they should not send sheep into the tiger's mouth and let mermaid meat like this. After all, these are all the guard wolf riders that Emperor Wu regards as a treasure. Every time he dies, it is equivalent to cutting a piece of meat on his Andongye.

Gu Xiaodao led a thousand wolf cavalry to clash left and right in the siege of the civilian army, rampaging and killing the corpses. Although Gu Xiaodao, a thousand cavalry, tried not to be entangled with the civilian army and left immediately, after all, there were fewer people, and one less died. He had to lead the team to gradually retreat to the Ruibei Mountain in the north of "Ruizhou". But he turned to war.

However, there were countless small battles on this day. After being tired after a long battle, it was first dispersed by Li Gan's large-scale civilian army in a scuffle. Gu Xiaodao temporarily lost the control of his opponent's cavalry and only took the seven-eight horses to get rid of the pursuers. Then in the chase, even these seven-eight cavalry were also scattered in continuous maneuvers, leaving only Gu Xiaodao was alone. Although he was alone, he also completely got rid of the shackles of military tactics and became more like a lone killer hunter than a general.

Turning over the horse, Gu Xiaodao, who was seriously injured, was ready to collect his surviving subordinates. I'm afraid that there are more than ten of the thousand cavalry he led.

All the way, Gu Xiaodao had just galloped up the hill. Suddenly, he heard the sound of the horse's hoofs in front of him, getting closer and closer. When Gu Xiaodao looked down, he saw a horse galloping in front of him and fleeing along the flat valley under the hills. Looking at the majestic mount and dressed as a Kanto knight, he should be one of his lost followers. Later Hundreds of people chased horses, but they were cavalry of the civilian army.

Taking off the heavy bamboo bow on his body, Gu Xiaodao pulled out a few precious feather arrows left, stringed the arrows, and coldly calculated the firing distance and angle. The first arrow must shoot the leader of the civilian cavalry rushing to the front, otherwise there would be no shock.

The bow string roars wildly and shoots the target with one arrow!

The civilian army subordinates who ran away obviously also found Gu Xiaodao, who was stationed on the hill and covered with blood, and ran to the hill instead.

Taking advantage of the ensuing time when the civilian army chased and riding, Gu Xiaodao roared the sky, shot the second feather arrow out on the slope, and then shot it. When the horse turned over, it completely disrupted the pursuit rhythm of the 100 horses of the people and took the horses to dodge one after another.

The horse was as fast as the wind, and Gu Xiaodao rushed for a distance. He flashed a few flying but poorly accurate civilian army feather arrows, grabbed two arrows, bowed back, and then shot down two riders. Now the situation is even more chaotic. The unprepared civilian army can't catch the momentum of the mount. It is busy taking the horse to avoid it, and rides twice. In the blink of an eye, he entered Gu Xiaodao's wooden arrow killing range.

Gu Xiaodao drives the mount to constantly adjust the pace of Mercedes-Benz and make a subtle change of movement, purely by intuitive reaction to dodge or pull out the arrows fired by the other party in a hurry, which is dangerous and dangerous.

The distance between the two sides is constantly shortening. After just a few breaths, when he was about to enter the distance between short soldiers, Gu Xiaodao then fired feathers and arrows with a sinking bamboo bow, like a shower. He did not shoot people to shoot horses. After shooting down more than a dozen mounts in front of him, the situation became more chaotic. People shouted horses and became a mess.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the rest of the civilian cavalry immediately shouted together. A swarm of bees of horses ran around and left without fighting, and even their companions could not take care of it.

Gu Xiaodao hated these civilian troops because his family was looted by the civilian army, and naturally he would not show mercy. After stabbing the remaining injured civilian troops one by one, he collected all the remaining bows and arrows for later use. Gu Xiaodao immediately went to the small mound and saw the wolf riding department. He fell to the ground and was still gasping. Probably, the series of bloody battles and desperate escapes in the past two days have exhausted all his energy. When the general cleaned the battlefield, he still didn't recover much.

It was not until the subordinate who called himself "Rong Black Tiger" barely recovered some physical strength that the two set out together and prepared to find an opportunity to go to the Ruibei area and collect the scattered followers by the way.

However, along the way, Gu Xiaodao only collected 70 or 80 surviving members in two days, and even a series of them could not be collected. They were still scarred and miserable.

A few days later, the night was dark.

Gu Xiaodao led dozens of wounded soldiers to quietly arrive at the "River Valley" county.

The road is relatively calm. In fact, the main force of many exiles has attacked the capital of Ruizhou, and there are not too many large civilian troops still attacking the city in the "Dingxi Army" area.

Thinking of the two major civilian armies encountered on the way, they may have gathered and marched to the "Ruizhou" capital city, but Gu Xiaodao's luck was really not very good. He hit the knife and let the main force of the two major civilian armies be intercepted. The other party relied on the crowd. It's really lucky that this temporary wolf cavalry, which has not yet formed a strong battle core, has not been destroyed.

Looking at the majestic "River Valley" county in front of us, most of the city walls have been obviously damaged. It was supposed to be the place of a solid gate, and a large section of the wall has been demolished without a brick or a stone.

There is no need to send people into the city to find out the news first. Gu Xiaodao led the crowd to urge him to go straight into the suddenly open "riage valley" county.

Ma stepped on the long street and looked up. There was a dead silence in the "River Valley" county, which was completely the situation after the war**. There were still very obvious traces of fire in the houses next to the street, but there were no bodies and no one.

This is a dead city completely empty, a dead city that is completely no longer guarded!

Some people may have fled to the mountains, some may have joined the civilian army, and some may have lost their lives in the confrontation with the civilian army.

Judging from the fact that there was no one in front of them and the bodies were also cleaned up, the "River Valley" county had been broken by the people for many days. Probably the people were afraid that the strong wall would be used by the government and destroyed the wall near the gate when they retreated.

There is no need to stay in this city. If the damaged wall is to be repaired, even if there is no shortage of Qiangu people, I'm afraid it will take ten months. What's more, now all the residents of the "River Valley" county have fled or dispersed. It seems that even a grain of food is difficult to find, and it is not suitable for a long time being.

A few sad and fierce screams came from afar, mixed with a few dog barks. Obviously, a small number of civilian troops were moving nearby.

"Someone touched it. Let's go!"

With Gu Xiaodao's order, the wolves quickly rode out of the city and disappeared into the dark night.
