The sky was gloomy, and the sun didn't know when to hide among the dark clouds, as if it was afraid of seeing the army rushing in the wilderness. Even the wind was mixed with a bit of coldness and chill.
On the top of the mountain on the left side of the ravine, Qin Huaidao stood on his horse and looked at the scheduled battlefield. The terrain was similar to what the prisoners described. The terrain was flat and the field of vision was wide. The horses could rush directly over. It was not suitable for an ambush, but the more impossible the place, the more opportunities there were.
The bigger.
Those who are good at fighting should turn decay into magic!
Soon, the generals from all the armies came over and surrounded Qin Huaidao. They didn't say anything. They looked at the terrain ahead and waited patiently. At the same time, they thought about how they would fight if they were themselves, facing this terrain.
After a while, Qin Huaidao pointed to the ravine below and said: "Everyone, there is a bend three hundred feet away along the ravine. The bend is not big, but it blocks the line of sight and is conducive to hiding soldiers. Brother Luo, take your people and hide in the bend.
Behind the road, wait for the enemy to fall and rush out, kill them all and leave no one alive."
"Fell off the horse?" Luo Tong was a little surprised. The ravine was flat, how could he fall off the horse?
"Time is tight, go and get ready." Qin Huaidao did not explain.
There was only one voice on the battlefield, and military orders were everything. Luo Tong suppressed his curiosity and hurried away.
Qin Huaidao looked at Cheng Chumo and Fang Yiai: "You two and your men are ambush on the ridges on both sides of the ravine. Remember, all of them lie on the ground and don't move. No talking is allowed. Drive the war horses away and find a place to hide to avoid being exposed in advance. The same
Wait for the enemy to fall and take action, then use the three-three system to fight at close quarters."
"Follow the order!" The two of them solemnly clasped their fists and hurriedly prepared.
Luo Zhang looked over, curious about his mission.
Qin Huaidao did not give orders immediately, but looked towards the wilderness ahead, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he had difficulty making a decision. Luo Zhang did not interrupt, and waited anxiously.
Not long after, Qin Huaidao seemed to have made a decision, pointing forward and said: "According to the prisoners' account, there is a valley about three miles ahead. The valley is dangerous and can hide troops, but it is also easy to attract the attention of the enemy. Send people to investigate. Once exposed,
The consequences are very serious, do you dare to take the risk?"
"What's wrong? At worst, just kill him and lure the enemy to the ravine below." Luo Zhang was full of courage and said nonchalantly. He had followed Qin Huaidao for the longest time, so he naturally understood that since Qin Huaidao said it, he had decided to do this in his heart.
.
"You still understand me."
Qin Huaidao sighed with emotion and warned: "If you are not exposed, just hide and let the enemy come over. Once the war starts, sneak up from behind and bite the enemy like a wolf. If you can beat, then fight. If you can't, then run away. There is only one purpose.
Create chaos and panic behind enemy lines and put pressure on the enemies in front. Be careful and go ahead."
Once the number of people exceeds 10,000, they are so densely packed that it is difficult to keep track of them.
Especially after the people in front enter the ravine, once the fighting starts, the morale of the troops will be messed up. If they know that there is a sneak attack from behind, and they can't see it, they will panic even if there is no threat from the sneak attack from behind, and their morale will plummet.
This is a psychological game!
As long as the enemy panics, 50% of the 100% combat effectiveness will be lost, greatly increasing your chances of winning.
Luo Zhang understood the profound meaning and left in a hurry.
"Then what do we do?" Luo Ying couldn't help but ask.
"The task of the special operations group is the most difficult. They hide the horses behind them, take out the steel wires and set up stumbling ropes underneath, and then lie in wait on both sides, covering each other with loess, camouflage, and not being exposed. After the enemy falls, they rush up and block the enemy.
Cut it off, and I will follow you." Qin Huaidao solemnly warned.
The ravine is completely covered with loess, it is severely weathered, and there is not a single blade of grass. It is not conducive to concealment at all, but for those who are good at hiding under the Nine Earths, loess is the best camouflage.
The special forces have all learned the art of concealment and lurking, and they can be revealed at a glance.
Luo Ying looked at both sides of the ravine, nodded knowingly and said, "Just leave it to me. It's better for my uncle to sit in the back and take command, strategizing."
"We all know how to fight. There is no need to give instructions. Time is tight. Go and prepare." Qin Huaidao urged.
Luo Ying was embarrassed to say anything and quickly went to make arrangements.
Soon, someone drove the war horses away, and the people from the Guards Camp also drove the war horses away and found a place to hide.
The remaining people rushed down the ravine, took out the steel wire, and laid it out under the guidance of Qin Huaidao.
Although the steel wire is tough, it will not bear force if it is stretched too long. It is divided into three sections and distributed in a three-three-three pattern. As long as the war horses come over, it will definitely not be spared. Qin Huaidao saw that the steel wire reflected light in the sun and was easily exposed in advance, allowing people to touch it with loess.
Get dirty.
If the steel wire is stained with loess, the reflection will not be obvious.
After setting up the tripping ropes, the next step was to hide the soldiers. Everyone used Mo Dao to dig the soil on both sides of the ravine, and dug out a human-shaped trench. People lay down, and their companions helped each other to spread the excavated loess and cover it, with their heads exposed.
But it was also sprinkled with loess, and Mo Dao was also covered with floating soil.
People are next to each other, and the scattered loess is bulldozed suspiciously. To disguise it, it looks like a raised long mound. It would be awkward to hide a few people like this, but with more than 1,100 people lying down at the same time, the area is long enough.
, and it is next to a gentle slope, but it looks like a natural phenomenon and is not conspicuous.
After half an hour, everyone hid and remained motionless.
The ravine was completely silent except for the whistling wind, which made a strange sound.
Waiting is a kind of torment, and it is even worse when hidden under the loess. Although it is only a thin layer, no one dares to move. Even if a certain part of the body is itchy and unbearable, they still endure it, for fear that the loess will fall off if they move, and the body will be exposed and the enemy will find it.
If I hadn't been specially trained in Chashan, I wouldn't have been able to bear it.
This fighting concept from later generations shocked those who were ambushing around. More than a thousand people were actually hidden invisibly, and the key was not moving for so long. If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you would have thought that there was no one in the ravine. This ability to hide soldiers is simply unbelievable.
, unheard of, but exciting, seeing the hope of victory.
Time passed slowly, and the wilderness became silent.
"Gah!"
A mountain eagle circled in the sky, making a sharp cry, as if asking about the person hiding below, but flew away without waiting for a response.
The white clouds are lingering and the mountain breeze is gentle.
Unknowingly, an hour passed, and still no one came. Qin Huaidao didn't care. The ambush was just like playing all day and night. The special operations group could still persist. On the contrary, the people ambush on the top of the mountain on both sides of the ravine were a little unbearable. But when they saw the ravine,
Inside, no one under the loess moved, and they didn't have the nerve to move around. They gritted their teeth and persisted.
After a while, the ground shook slightly.
Everyone looked at each other in surprise. Someone put his ear to the ground, listened carefully, and immediately said: "There are many sounds of horse hooves, at least tens of thousands."
"Shut up, I'll chop anyone who dares to touch you. We have more than ten thousand people, so we're still in ambush. We're so scared." An officer immediately scolded him.
When everyone heard that it made sense, their military morale was set.
Not long after, the roar of horse hooves came clearly, like thunder rolling from the sky and the earth shaking.
At the bottom of the ravine, Qin Huaidao saw that the small stones in front of him were shaking, and there were many people coming, but he didn't care. The trap had been laid, and even if it cost 20,000 people, he would have to fight. He shouted in a low voice: "Don't move, wait patiently."
Everyone remained silent and their eyes were firm.
Soon, a huge cavalry team appeared in the field of vision, roaring towards them. The formation was scattered and dense, and the tail of the team could not be seen. However, due to the influence of the terrain, when it got closer, the formation began to shrink and headed straight towards the ravine.
If someone rushes directly up the mountain ridge, they will definitely be exposed, which will lead to a different result.
Qin Huaidao was betting that the enemy was lazy and would leave the flat ravine and cross the mountains and cross the bridge. He also bet that the enemy was eager to come to check the situation and would march in a hurry without sending scouts. He also bet that the enemy was blindly confident and arrogant.
, thinking that the army was coming to kill and no one dared to provoke him.
The application of the art of war is based on calculations based on human nature.
Seeing the enemy heading straight towards the ravine, Qin Huaidao was convinced that he had made the right bet!
"Boom!"
Thousands of horses galloped, the heaven and earth roared, and the sound was terrifying.
On horseback, countless people looked indifferent and concentrated on their way. They rushed into the valley. They saw that the valley was flat and unobstructed, which was not conducive to an ambush. As for the mountain ridges on both sides, it was only a gentle slope of more than ten meters. This kind of terrain is everywhere, even if there is
So what if there is an ambush? The cavalry can directly charge forward and kill all enemies.
Perhaps out of concern for the three thousand men, or perhaps out of self-confidence, this team paid some attention to the front and sides, but did not pay attention to the ground. Without any hesitation, they rushed forward along the ravine at a very fast speed.
"Xilulu!"
Suddenly, the war horse rushing at the front stumbled and fell heavily, making a tragic neighing sound. The people on the horse were even thrown away. Before everyone could react, more war horses fell down and became a mess.
The steel wire is not a stumbling rope. It is extremely tough and can cut a horse's hooves as long as it is fast enough.
"ah--"
"Xilulu!"
Heart-rending screams, accompanied by the neighing of war horses, resounded throughout the world, extremely tragic.
The roaring cavalry was as powerful as a mad dragon, but at this moment it was as if someone had pressed a palm to his head and knocked him to the ground.
