Chapter 307 The encirclement of the 30,000 army
"General~"
The scout Pegasus approached the military formation. Lu Bu reined in the horse and slowly raised his right arm. Behind him, Zhou Cang and Hu Che'er were parked on his left and right like two fierce gods. Zhou Cang had his chest exposed and Hu Che'er looked like
It is ferocious, looking around, like a wild beast that chooses people to devour.
Behind the two men, flag soldiers guarded a large flag with the words "Han Wei General Lu" written on it. The flag fluttered in the wind and made a hunting sound.
Amidst the endless snoring of war horses, more than four thousand flag soldiers slowly stopped behind Lu Bu. The dark armor was like a black jungle of death, exuding a suffocating aura, and the sharp sabers faced the rising sun.
, reflecting the icy cold light.
"Speak!" Lu Bu said indifferently as he looked at the scouts rushing towards him.
"General, we found Karasuma cavalry gathering in front, approaching our army from three directions." The scout bowed.
"Which direction is the nearest one?" Lu Bu asked, stroking the red rabbit's mane.
"To the southeast, the number of people is about 8,000. According to our army, it is less than ten miles away. The other two directions..."
"Destroy this road first!" Before the scout could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lu Bu. He obviously didn't care about the specific number of enemy troops. As for the gap in numbers, under the current terrain, as long as Lu Bu's vanguard could defeat the enemy
Army, what is left is a battle of pursuit and annihilation. The grassland people's lax military discipline is destined to prevent them from fighting such a tough battle. Now in order to encircle themselves, they cleverly chose such a valley terrain.
If he were a general unfamiliar with the habits of the grassland people, he might be really frightened, but Lu Bu grew up on the border and knew very well that the grassland people's so-called wolf pack fighting method actually means that they lack the ability to attack difficulties head-on, and can only resort to guerrilla attacks and harassment.
Lu Bu is not afraid of the enemy no matter how many come in this kind of terrain.
"Lead the way!" Lu Bu squeezed the horse's belly with his legs, and the red rabbit moved forward, and the cavalry formation behind slowly followed suit.
"Here!" the scout agreed, turned his horse's head, and followed Lu Bu to lead the way.
The distance of less than ten miles was not far for the cavalry traveling in the opposite direction. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the two sides could already see each other's figures.
"kill!"
Lu Bu didn't have many inspiring words. Lu Bu just said one simple word. After the words fell, the red rabbit horse seemed to have smelled the breath of war, and excitedly pawed. Behind him, there were more than 4,000 elite cavalry, heading towards the opposite side.
The Karasuma Cavalry, whose number was twice that of their own, showed no fear at all and even howled with excitement.
The Karasuma people on the opposite side did not expect Lu Bu to react like this. According to their original calculation, after realizing that he was surrounded, Lu Bu had no choice but to retreat and be driven into death by them. Then he would slowly be consumed to death. All he had to do was watch them.
A desperate struggle before death is the right thing to do.
But now, Lu Bu led his men and horses to kill them directly. With only half their strength, the leader of Karasuma even thought that Lu Bu was crazy.
But the opponent has already launched a charge, and it is impossible for them to refuse to fight. Moreover, based on the terrain here, facing the enemy, they have only two ways to go forward or retreat. At this moment, facing Lu Bu's abnormal charge, they can only forcefully
I rushed up with my scalp.
"Ouch~"
The cavalry formation of Karasuma Cavalry began to charge forward, but in such a not-so-wide valley, the gap in command between the two sides appeared. Lu Bu's cavalry could launch a charge quickly, but the other side looked like a bloated fat man.
It started very slowly, so slowly...
The leader, General Karasuma, wanted to get out of the way of the vanguard. A ray of red light flashed out of the corner of his eyes. When he turned around to look, he saw that the general had already taken the lead and killed him. A strange weapon in his hand had come down with a scream.
General Karasuma only had time to lift himself up. A ray of cold light flashed through him. Lu Bu had already galvanized his horse and rushed past him, his head flying into the sky. In his last consciousness, he only saw that the general was like a man after passing him.
The sharp blade broke into the crowd at the rear. Wherever the strange-shaped weapon passed, the surrounding Karasuma soldiers were swept away like grass.
The world was completely plunged into darkness. The moment the head fell to the ground, it was trampled by the war horses rushing up from behind.
Before the two sides engaged with the enemy, their own general was gone. Before the people around him could react, a killer from the other side had already directly entered the crowd, chopping melons and vegetables and killing them all in a short time.
The Karasuma people can be considered a war nation, but they have never seen such ferocity. The scene of one person slashing at eight thousand people is really shocking. The gap was easily torn open by Lu Bu, and when the cavalry came rushing up,
, the morale of Karasuma's army has dropped to the bottom, and some people have begun to turn their horses and run away, but the Karasuma cavalry in the rear who don't know what happened are still continuing to charge forward.
Before the Han cavalry arrived, the Wuwan people's own soldiers and horses were entangled first, and the ensuing battle was almost a one-sided massacre.
Eight thousand Karasuma cavalry followed Lu Bu's rampage, and their initial retreat turned into a complete rout. Fang Tian's painted halberd seemed to have become a reminder, killing the Karasuma people until they cried for their fathers and mothers, and ran away in panic.
Lu Bu, on the other hand, mounted his horse and led his troops in pursuit. The pursuit was not finished until they left the valley. The corpses of the Karasuma soldiers covered the valley path for more than ten miles. The remaining Karasuma cavalry had been killed by Lu Bu and became frightened. They went crazy as soon as they came out of the valley.
Usually they flee in all directions.
"General, the other two groups of enemy troops have already arrived from the rear, and they seem to be trying to attack from both sides!" Hou Cheng rushed up from the rear and shouted loudly.
"Why are you panicking?" Lu Bu wiped Fang Tian's painted halberd on the leather of a corpse, and said coldly: "Turn the horse's head, change the rear to the front, continue to chop, and continue killing!"
After saying that, Lu Bu turned his horse's head and galloped towards the rear formation with Red Rabbit on his back.
The two Karasuma troops at the rear joined forces, and a total of 20,000 troops rushed into the valley. I originally thought that Lu Bu had already spread his wings and was unable to escape, and was ready to cooperate with the cavalry in front to completely strangle this so-called flying general here.
, was chasing vigorously, but saw the other party's troops suddenly and gradually stopped.
"They are blocked, kill them!" The leader was Tadun's confidant general, who was also the commander-in-chief of the encirclement and suppression of Lu Bu. At this moment, when he saw the Han cavalry stopped, he thought that the other party was blocked, and he was about to work together to unite with the other party.
The Karasuma cavalry on one side strangled Lu Bu completely. At this moment, the opponent had turned his horse's head and began to charge towards this side.
On the flank, Lu Bu, carrying Fang Tian's painted halberd, had already urged his horse to leap over the three armies, and charged towards Karasuma's army at the lead. The more than 4,000 Han cavalry troops under Lu Bu's leadership were like four thousand hungry wolves.
Lu Bu suddenly hung Fang Tian's painted halberd on the horse's back, took off the carved bow from his shoulder, and while the horse was galloping, he quickly bent the bow, nocked an arrow, and shot out an arrow.
The two sides were nearly two hundred steps apart at the moment. The general on the opposite side didn't even see Lu Bu's movements, but heard the sound in the air and subconsciously hid, feeling a chill in his chest. Under General Karasuma's incredible eyes, he
There is already an arrow shaft on the chest.
Even at this time, the distance between the two sides was still a hundred and fifty steps away. The general raised his head, glanced at Lu Bu in disbelief, and fell off his horse with a thud.
Lu Bu shot an arrow, put away his bow and picked up Fang Tian's painted halberd again. He would never shoot a second arrow at the same person. Almost at the moment when the other general fell off his horse, Lu Bu raised the Fang Tian's halberd high.
Tian Huaji shouted loudly: "Kill~"
Four thousand cavalry, led by Lu Bu, rolled up a torrent on the ground. Although the number was not as large as the enemy's army, the momentum they brought was like a mountain collapsing and the earth was shattering, causing the Karasuma soldiers who faced them to lose their souls.
"Block them, block them!" The other Karasuma generals looked at Lu Bu who came in like a ball of flames and shouted in panic.
Lu Bu rushed left and right, like a real fire. Wherever it went, Fang Tian's painted halberd was like the sickle of death, mercilessly devouring the lives of Karasuma people. The red rabbit horse neighed, and its iron hoofs
Trampling the ground, the Han cavalry behind them became even more excited when they saw how brave their generals were, and roared in.
Although there were many Karasuma cavalry, they were killed by Lu Bu and were so frightened that they ran away with their heads in their hands.
Lu Bu got excited to fight and roared loudly. Wei Xu and others who were following behind him heard the sound and quickly dispersed. Each led a group of men and horses to clash among the rebels, quickly destroying the Karasuma people's formation.
They cooperated with each other tacitly, and sometimes got together and sometimes separated, causing waves of bloodshed in the Karasuma Army.
The Karasuma people's already poor military formation was torn apart and divided into pieces.
At the beginning, there were still a few Karasuma generals working hard to command the army. After all, Lu Bu did not have many soldiers and horses, which could be seen, but Lu Bu specialized in killing this kind of people. Anyone with a loud voice would soon be killed.
Lu Bu set his sights, and in the end, what the Han army faced was a group of black soldiers with no subordinates, trampling on each other, and running around like headless flies.
It is almost unimaginable that 20,000 cavalrymen were chased by more than 4,000 cavalrymen, but it happened here.
Lu Bu led his men and horses to chase them all the way, and fought out from the other side of the valley. Looking at the Wuwan people fleeing in all directions, Lu Bu shouted sternly: "Continue to chase for one day, and meet at Pangong Mountain tomorrow!"
After saying that, he ignored the others and led a group of troops to pursue them in the direction with the most people.
Seeing this, the six generals Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, and Cao Xing each led a group of troops and continued to chase the Karasuma people.
This battle lasted from day to night and until dawn. Only then did Lu Bu give up the pursuit and led his troops to Pangong Mountain to join his generals.
In this battle, Tadun gathered 30,000 men and wanted to annex Lu Bu's partial army. However, the end result was that the 30,000 men were chased by Lu Bu for nearly a hundred miles. In the end, less than one of the 30,000 troops returned to Liucheng.
Ten thousand, this is not a cumulative kill, but nearly 20,000 people were killed by Lu Bu in one battle. After this battle, the name of the flying general shocked Bailang Mountain. The people of Karasuma were frightened after hearing the news, and Tadun even went to the White Wolf Mountain all night long.
