Chapter 22 Battle 1
When the sun rose from the horizon, Xue Jin and Tao Zhu, two thousand guards with the right battalion, had rushed to the three forks from Yanzhou to Yunzhou. Yao Xiu also followed the army as she wished. Although she loved her children, she did not restrain her children like the mother of the earth world. Since Yao Xiu is willing to serve the country, it's up to her!
"Zhang! Don't you miss me?" Yao Xiu rushed to the front of the army first. She had to see Zhang Zhentian and Zhou Peihu far away. She turned over and got off the war horse, and then ran to Zhang Zhentian's side and said happily, "Look, am I awesome? I got rid of all the traitors in the city.
"Hehe! You are the best." Zhang Zhentian replied with a smile, and then he saw Xue Jin and Tao Zhu behind Yao Xiu. He turned his eyes back to Yao Xiu, "Xiuer, these two are..."
"Oh, they are Xue Jin and Tao Zhu, the substitute generals of the right camp of the Praetorian Guard." Yao Xiu replied. Now that the crime of Yu Peng's conspiracy against rebellion has been carried out, the position of his right general of the Guard has naturally been removed. Before the Lord of Yanyun failed to return to Yanzhou, the officers and soldiers of the right battalion of the Guard were naturally led by Xue Jin and Tao Zhu, who were meritorious in suppressing the rebellion. Same as the earth world, since the officers and soldiers of the right battalion of the Guard are suspected of rebellion, they will naturally push them to the front line when they go out for war. Otherwise, how can the royal nobles of Yanyun be willing to push them directly to the front line?
"Hir, Mr. Zhang!" Xue Jin and Tao Zhu saw Yao Xiu introduce themselves to Zhang Zhentian, and the two of them also quickly got off the horse to salute Zhang Zhentian. On the way here, Yao Xiu has told both of them not to reveal their identities. Naturally, the two of them obeyed.
"The two generals are very polite!" Zhang Zhentian also hurriedly returned the salute to Xue Jin and Tao Zhu. After that, Zhang Zhentian turned around and pointed to the simple fortifications behind him and said to Xue Jin and Tao Zhu, "Two generals, the sky is getting brighter. I'm afraid that the orc scout cavalry will come soon."
"It's not tight!" Xue Jin listened to Zhang Zhentian's words and replied, "We brought all the soldiers of the right camp of the Guards. As long as they dare to come, we will kill them."
"It's okay!" After hearing this, Zhang Zhentian nod his head and thought for a while, and then said, "I think you might as well hide on the road to Yanzhou first, and then we will send a small group of cavalry to chase their scouts and lead them into our ambush circle after we find their camp."
"So good! Everything is up to your arrangement. Xue Jin and Tao Zhu answered respectfully.
About half an hour later, smoke and dust appeared in the direction of Yunzhou. Soon, more than a dozen orc cavalry appeared on the road in the direction of Yunzhou. Tao Zhu, who was ambushed near the fork of the road, did not wait for them to approach the road, and he immediately took 50 guards to meet them.
These orc cavalry saw that today's entrance seemed to be a little abnormal from afar. They originally wanted to get close to some to see it clearly before making plans. Now a group of original cavalry suddenly came out of the crossing. Seeing this, they immediately strangled the horse and then turned to Yunzhou.
Tao Zhu saw this, and he followed closely behind the orc cavalry with his cavalry. Although the original number and equipment were superior, they did not rush to catch up with the orc cavalry to destroy them, but bit them tightly, making the orc cavalry unable to get rid of them.
The two sides walked for about half an hour and turned up thick smoke from the hill on the side of the road. General Tao, look!" After a guard cavalry who followed Tao Zhu found something abnormal, he immediately reminded Tao Zhu next to him, "Over there! It's like the orc's brigade is coming.
"Stop moving forward!" Tao Zhu listened to the cavalry's words and looked sideways. Sure enough, there was a dense sound of horseshoe and the shouting of soldiers in the smoke and dust. The guard cavalry, under the command of Tao Zhu, stopped moving forward. Tao Zhu waved the long gun in his hand and turned the horse's head, "Retreat slowly!"
"General Xubu, those original cavalry have retreated!" The orc cavalry who followed the orc general also found that Tao Zhu was slowly retreating, and he immediately reminded the leading general Xu Buzheng. Xu Buzheng and Xu Buzhi, who was lived in the hotel that day, were actually brothers, but the original people did not know it.
"Cue up!" Xu Bu could see that there were not many original cavalry on the road, and the cavalry around him was about ten times that of the enemy. If he did not destroy this small group of cavalry and open the road to the eight-sided slope, his orc soldiers would be in a difficult situation. Although the road between the two states of Yanyun is made of mountains, there is no road that can directly cross the ridge. If the original man sent troops from Yunzhou and cooperated with the soldiers and horses of Yanzhou, then Xu Buzheng and his soldiers would not escape.
In this way, Tao Zhu and Xu Buzheng, one led people to run in front and the other to chase behind, and they quickly approached the fork in the road. General! There is a roadblock of the original person ahead. Near the Daokou, the orc cavalry near Xu Buzheng reminded Xu Buzheng loudly.
Although the location of this fork is important, the terrain is not dangerous. There are 100 meters of gentle mountains on both sides of the road near the fork. Although this mountain is not suitable for the operation of car tents, horses and people can walk and fight. Therefore, although the original soldier blocked the road, it did not affect the orc cavalry to chase the original man along both sides of the road. However, Zhang Zhentian thought that this was a good ambush battlefield. Because the mountains far away from the fork are dangerous enough. As long as the original cavalry can block the orcs' road to the eight-sided slope, and then properly block the orcs in the direction of Yunzhou, the orcs will be annihilated by most of the original people even if they are not completely annihilated here. After all, both sides of the cavalry battle need to deal with the battlefield. Xue Jin and Tao Zhu brought the guards all equipped with horses, and they naturally have the ability to fight horses with the orcs.
"Kill it!" Xu Buzheng naturally didn't know Zhang Zhentian's plan. According to the law of general use of troops, the terrain near the fork is suitable for horse warfare, so orcs who are good at cavalry fighting will naturally not be afraid of the original army that is good at infantry fighting on this terrain.
After Tao Zhu arrived at the entrance, he led his cavalry to Yanzhou without hesitation. When the original soldiers who were guarding near the crossing saw the orc cavalry coming, they immediately got on the horse and retreated in the direction of the eight-sided slope.
"General! How can we chase it?" When the orc cavalry saw the original people retreating in different directions, they immediately asked Xu Buzheng for instructions. Xu Bu was looking at the two paths of the fork road. Although the original cavalry fleeing to Yanzhou was much less than the original cavalry fleeing to the eight-sided slope, if the road back to the eight-sided slope is not opened, he and his men will definitely die even if they win today. Xu Bu was thinking of this when he waved the long-handled tomahawk in his hand and "chase to the eight-sided slope!" Utu Leopard, you take a hundred soldiers to guard the entrance! Follow me for the rest!" Under his order, the orc cavalry immediately divided into two teams, and the brigade of orc cavalry followed him to the eight slopes.
Xubu and his cavalry chased forward more than 200 meters through the crossing, and the hillsides on both sides of the road gradually became steep. This was originally the place where the orc cavalry had to scout every day. They were also familiar with the surrounding terrain, but they did not think of the original man. There will be an ambush at the narrowest point of the mountains on both sides.
When Xu Buzheng and his soldiers rushed to the narrowest part of the mountain, the original soldiers ambushed behind the road and the mountain were killed together under the command of Zhang Zhentian and Xue Jin. The dense arrows immediately flew out of the hands of the original soldiers, and they flew towards the cavalry of Xubu and his men like locus.
"Ah! Not good." Xubu was immediately dancing the tomahawk in his hand to shoot down the flying arrow feathers, and he shouted, "Remove back! Backward. Rock Shield!" After that, the tomahawk in his hand was full of wind, forming a round defensive array in front of him and the orc soldiers, and half of the arrow feathers were blocked by the defensive array generated by his practice.
When the orc cavalry saw that Xu Buzheng was blocking the attack of the original people, their mood gradually calmed down. They followed Xu Buzheng, reorganized the team and prepared for battle. But at this time, a string of flying feathers flew quickly from the left back side of Xubuzheng, and they took the back of Xubuzheng's neck. Xubu was hearing the sudden sound of gold and stone behind his ear. He quickly bent down the moon and avoided the attack behind the side. However, the tomahawk in his hand also stopped working, and the rock shield immediately disappeared.
"Let's go!" Seeing this, Xue Jin danced the long-handled knife in his hand and, together with Zhang Zhentian, commanded the original cavalry to charge the orc cavalry.
After Sub was dodging the attack behind him, he immediately got up from the horse, but before he turned around to look at the direction of the attack, another cluster of arrows flew towards his back. Ah!" Xu Bu was screaming, and he quickly lowered his body. Poo! Poo!" Although the feather arrow failed to hit his key point, it hit him in the back along the crack in his armor.
Subu was holding the horse's neck, and he urged the horse to retreat. At this time, the war horse under his seat made a miserable hiss! Then, Xu Bu felt a pain in his thigh, and an arrow hit his left leg. And his ** war horse was also hit by several arrows. It shook a few times and fell directly to the ground.
