Chapter 319 The silent leader
The cavalry is located in a narrow passage between two gentle slopes. Through this narrow passage, they can enter a flat and broad road. There is no need to worry about being intercepted by the deer-chasing army. This narrow passage is not long, with more than 200 steps in front and back. Under normal circumstances,
, it wouldn’t take long for the cavalry to pass quickly, but just now the cavalry stopped at the bottom of the slope, and it would take time to speed up again, which gave the enemy an opportunity.
Seeing that some of the cavalry had passed through the narrow passage, Luo Hu decisively ordered the tribesmen to abandon their posts and use white bamboo crossbows to greet them.
The cavalry, which was shot by crossbows at close range and had not had time to pass through the narrow passage down the slope, was in bad luck.
There were endless screams and sounds of falling to the ground.
The road was narrow, and people continued to be knocked off their horses by arrows. A small number of crossbow arrows were also shot on the horses. The horses began to lose control under the pain. Some fallen cavalry were not shot to death, but died under the trampling of their own horses. Some horses that had lost the drive of the cavalry were blocked.
On the road, the cavalry desperately drove the out-of-control horses to the gentle slopes on both sides, trying to keep the road as clear as possible so that the troops could pass as quickly as possible.
The cavalry could only be beaten and did not dare to fight back, feeling extremely aggrieved.
No one dared to stop and resist.
The military discipline in the territory is strict. Even if those who disobey orders can escape from the enemy's hands, they will definitely not be able to save their lives when they return. The cavalry know the serious consequences of "undeclared war", and the lord will never tolerate such disobedience. In addition, even if they are not attacked,
Wearing the tight spell, the two armies can fight fairly. Five hundred cavalry that have lost their speed will most likely be disastrous when fighting against a garrison led by two hundred men.
Their only hope was to pass through this narrow passage before the attackers approached.
More than a hundred cavalry were shot or trampled to death. The rear cavalry finally left before the attackers approached.
On the gentle slope, there are scattered war horses that have lost their owners.
The people rushed towards the horses happily. The people who fell behind had no horses to catch, so they had to run to the narrow road. When they saw the cavalry who were still alive, they made up for it. The people were the best mercenaries and could be called the elite.
The elite among them, and elite often means a small number of people. In addition, they have the tradition of taking death in battle as good luck. They take it for granted that the enemy also likes this kind of "glory", and they do not have the habit of keeping prisoners in war.
At this time, the lord's troops behind the people caught up.
A military general saw the soldiers cleaning up the battlefield and hurriedly said: "Catch some live ones!"
Luo Hu muttered: "You want to live? You should have told me earlier!"
The lord standing on the top of the slope on the other side saw this scene and his eyes were cold.
He raised his hand, and two black shadows appeared behind him.
"What are your orders, sir?"
"You stay and make sure we are not caught alive. If anyone is still alive..."
The lord did not say anything further, but the two people behind him already understood.
"Don't worry, sir. We will ensure that all fallen soldiers die heroically. No one will live in an ignoble way, and no one will be captured. The other side will not have the opportunity to use the captives to testify about the territory and participate in the war."
"Very good, you guys..."
The conversation stopped abruptly, an arrow flew down the slope, and a white light lit up.
Two black figures quietly disappeared into the darkness.
When the cavalry retreated, the barbarian rebels' offensive against Zhulu Leader was no longer sustainable.
Wang Ping is a high-level general. The cooldown of his legion skills takes 15 minutes, which is three times that of a king-level general. However, when he moved from Baihu Town to Shanbei Town, the 15-minute cooldown time has long passed. He extracted power from more than a thousand people. Wang Ping's
As soon as the legion's skills came out, more than 300 barbarian soldiers were bombarded and killed. The barbarian soldiers who attacked Shanbei Town suffered heavy losses and were no longer able to attack Shanbei Town. Instead, they were beaten left and right by Wang Ping's new army and were in a state of disarray.
These barbarian soldiers were the main force of Zhu Ti's rebel army.
The barbarian people are brave and fight fiercely. When they are ready to kill, they often cannot pull back nine oxen.
The main force of Zhu Ti's rebel army was trained and commanded by Huang Yi, and the discipline was even stricter. Although the situation was extremely unfavorable, the Yi soldiers did not easily quit the battle. While they resisted tenaciously, they sent people to request Huang Yi, who was still attacking Caoben Town.
However, the gap in strength cannot be made up by bravery alone.
Before the messenger could bring back the order to retreat, the barbarian soldiers outside Shanbei Town had already been defeated.
Wang Ping led his troops to pursue the victory, followed the retreating direction of the defeated soldiers, and rushed straight to Caoben Town!
When the battle reached this point, Scarface Huang Yi knew that the situation was over and ordered a full retreat.
When the Wuling bandits retreated, Huang Yi was not discouraged, because he never expected the thieves group to fight to the death, even the famous Wuling bandits, so Huang Yi asked the rebel rear group to rush to Baihu Town as soon as possible, just to use this method
The method told Wuling Kou not to give up easily. The fact that the opponent could persist for so long before retreating was actually beyond Huang Yi's expectations. There was nothing to complain about.
The cavalry left the battlefield and had not been seen for a long time, but Huang Yi did not waver. From the beginning, the cavalry's mission was only to contain and interfere, not to fight. The cavalry fulfilled their promise and quit the battle at this time, which Huang Yi could understand.
There are many rebellious barbarians in Zhuti County, but because the barbarians mostly live together in ethnic groups, many people are unwilling to leave their ethnic groups. In addition, Yinan's productivity is limited and it is difficult to support too many troops for long-term campaigns. The entire Zhuti County is truly worthy of the "army"
"The two-character rebel army only has more than 10,000 people.
Huang Yi brought 8,000 people, and almost all of the most elite forces followed him to Zhulu Leader.
He originally believed that the troops he brought were enough to destroy the Zhulu Leader.
The cruel reality gave him a blow in the head.
The resistance of the Zhulu Territory seems so weak, and it seems that it will be completely destroyed in the next moment. However, no matter how many barbarian soldiers Huang Yi invests, no matter how fierce the offensive is, the resistance of the Zhulu Territory still continues. On the contrary, the attackers continue to do so.
In the struggle and strangulation, they gradually lost their strength. It was not until Zhulu Ling's counterattack approached step by step that people realized that the situation was over and there was no way back!
Still lost...
Huang Yi sighed in his heart. This operation ended in failure. The main force he had painstakingly trained also suffered heavy losses in this battle. This loss was enough to severely weaken the strength of the Zhuti County rebels, who wanted to restore their pre-war strength.
Strength, Huang Yi needs to reorganize his army.
Huang Yi was not worried about replenishing his troops, as there were many rebellious barbarians in Zhuti County.
However, reorganizing and training the troops will take time.
Counties in southern Yizhou are rebelling, and the rebels are not affiliated with each other. Whoever wants to be the leader of the southern rebels needs strong strength and impressive records. Huang Yi was originally one of the strong contenders for the leader of the rebels, but this
This failure not only severely damaged his vitality, but also inevitably affected his prestige and reputation among the rebels.
This is indeed how things unfolded.
The attack on Zhulu was defeated, which greatly damaged the strength of the rebel leader of Zhuti County and made him widely doubted.
After finally breaking through the government's defense line, the rebels from each county moved northward, hoping to control the entire territory of Yizhou in the shortest possible time. At this juncture, Huang Yi did not attack the imperial counties, but took a detour to attack a player's territory. It was really unbelievable.
Other rebels wanted Juti rebel leader to give a reason.
