Chapter 416: Ambush in the Forest
Arrows flew across the sky in a scattered manner, and fleeing figures rode horses to the distance.
The flames burned on the ground, scarlet soil, horse hooves stomped over, and the long spears rushed over. The war horses neighed with a long wrath, and their forelimbs fell to the ground with a bang. The figure above rushed out and rolled into the fire. "Ahhh!" screamed in a shrill manner. When they struggled to get up, the infantry holding a shield rushed over and took a knife. He raised his foot and kicked his body on the burning body and pulled out the knife. The Liaodong infantry then quickly walked towards the next one. More soldiers spread around. Apart from the surrender and fleeing Xianbei cavalry, most of the remaining ones were killed. Some pretended to be dead and were discovered. Several people rushed up and worked together to kill the opponent's sword.
The field of vision extended, and the battlefield stretched for several miles, the ground lit by rockets, the corpses were clearly extinguished and burned in the setting sun, and the spots of blood spread out on the ground were densely packed with people, horse corpses, the injured and difficult to struggle to stand up, swaying necks, kicking hooves, and looking at the figures that were cleaning up and finishing the tail.
The Xianbei cavalry who jumped off the war horse and discarded the weapons were driven away in piles, looking at the Wuhuan people riding horses around them with fear. In fact, they were not afraid of the Wuhuan cavalry that was the same as them in front of them, but the Liaodong infantry approaching. Just a hundred feet away, a cavalry with a scimitar with two bows and black leather armor rushed down the hillside and crossed through this side. Some of the prisoners raised their heads boldly and watched the guard wolf cavalry of these two thousand people dispersed in an orderly manner to scatter the defeated soldiers. The other party's bowing, swordsmanship, and equestrian skills were extremely exquisite. Dozens and hundreds of people almost killed them in half a quarter of an hour. Some directly rushed the other party into the river and shot arrows. Hundreds of corpses rose and fell on the water surface, drifting downstream, and blood rolled and surged in the waves.
From the early morning when the Liaodong army started the war to Gongsun Zhi's wolf cavalry taking over the battlefield, it is now dusk and dusk. On the hillside at the foot of Wuwu Mountain, the horse's hooves tread a few restlessly. The evening breeze blows over, stroking the wolf velvet on the armor. After listening to Li Ke's report, Gongsun Zhi nodded, "Jiji is just a strong man from the outside. Since he has entered the forest, there is no need for cavalry fighting. Yu Du will deal with him, but why did Pan Feng chase him?"
"I definitely want to be a mika's head."
"Then don't care about him. The war is almost over, but the Xianbei tribe is still there. He ordered the Wuhuan cavalry, Suonu's troops to merge into one place, go deep into the Xianbei tribe in Liaodong, drive everyone out, and take them back to Shanggu County... regardless of death or injury."
The hand armor clamped the reins and made a giggle sound. The words paused for a moment. Gongsun Zhi turned his head and looked at the ending battlefield. He rode his horse and turned his direction and walked slowly towards the hillside. His voice was low: "... In addition, I sent someone to find Gongsun Du and said I want to see him."
The messenger rushed away.
On the hillside, Li Ke and Dian Wei followed behind, and Li Ke patted the mace: "Is the leader going to kill Gongsun Du later? Then I will give him a blow from behind while he is unprepared, so it will save trouble."
"You have little hands, so I'll do it!" Dian Wei glanced at him, "I'll just throw a small halberd into it later."
"What should I do if I miss it?"
"Then you stand and don't move, try it?"
"Turn, I'm your son!"
He almost yelled with words, but he didn't even want to take action. The horse hooves in front of him stepped on the ground lightly, and Gongsun Zhi waved his hand: "Who said I want to kill Gongsun Du?"
"Hmm?" The two stopped competing.
After walking down the hillside, Gongsun Zhi comforted Jueying, gently stroked its mane, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Gongsun Du's foundation in Liaodong is too deep. In Fuyu Kingdom and Goguryeo are all in awe. When he suddenly killed him, the problem behind him will be very serious. It is very likely that Goguryeo will attack Liaodong north, and Gongsun Du's confidant will be dissatisfied. At that time, we will not have much time to lose money in Liaodong, not to mention that the expected food and grass have been almost used up. Part of the cattle and sheep plundered from Wuhuan should be used for trade, and the other part will be the foundation for attacking Jizhou, and it cannot be consumed here."
The tone paused, and he looked at a corpse burning not far ahead, and the light reflected in his eyes, "... But I was not relieved that a too ambitious guy stayed behind. Li Ru happened to leave some 'wine' for me..."
The wind blew over and his eyes narrowed.
………
The red color sprinkled across the foothills, and the frightened birds flew in the forest, making panic cry and rushing out of the top of the tree and flew to the sky. Below, the fallen leaves on the ground were thick, and the horse's hooves slowly rose up dead leaves. They walked among the densely scattered trees, several riders... dozens of riders... hundreds of riders, and more cavalry were also moving in the same direction. Most of them were dismounting and holding reins, occasionally alarming unknown beasts in the grass, and they all set their bows to aim vigilantly, and their nerves were tensed to the extreme.
Behind him, fighting, the sound of horse hooves was still vaguely heard. The Xianbei cavalry who had not yet rushed into the mountains was chased by wolf cavalry from behind. Pan Feng cut off a giant axe, pressed one man's shoulder and rushed into the fleeing Xianbei cavalry. He killed several people, decisively abandoned the horse, and rushed into the forest. Zhao Yun frowned behind and raised his hand to let the other cavalry guard outside the forest to clean up the scattered enemies. He rode a horse and followed Pan Wushuang into the forest to prevent him from making any mistakes.
The fleeing teams were constantly falling behind in the forest, but for the number of tens of thousands, no one cared about the disappearance of twenty or thirty people. Some were ordered to stop the pursuers behind, and then the sound of fighting broke out and they never went back.
"Will the Han people also set up ambushes in the mountains?" Jue Ji's face trembled slightly, his eyes were looking around nervously, and occasionally fighting sounds came from behind. He looked back and then his eyes fell on Mijia, who was also nervous.
At this time, the forest was cool, and Mijia still wiped the sweat from his face, "It shouldn't be...How could Gongsun Zhi know where we will enter the mountain? Unless he is really the reincarnation of the White Wolf God as rumored."
"I also think it should be what you said..."
The words floated forward, and above the head of the fleeing team, the branches swayed gently under the breeze. Occasionally, a few fallen leaves floated down and fell to the ground by passing by people. A Xianbei soldier subconsciously raised his eyes to look at the shaking branches, and something seemed to be hidden in the gap...
The next second, the pupils suddenly shrank, and a blade magnified in sight and fell down. As the plasma gushed violently, the surrounding woods swayed wildly, one, two... dozens of... thousands of black shadows rushed out from the trees, behind the rocks, and among the weeds.
