The wind lends itself to the fire, and the fire helps the wind burn. The long hair that prairie people like to spread also provides the best help for the spread of the fire.
Soon, there was a fire in the valley. Even if it didn't hit the people or horses, it would ignite the sparse dry grass on the ground. Although it wouldn't burn people to death, it would be enough to scare the horses.
Accompanied by screams and screams, it was the frightened neighing of horses, and the strong burning smell smoked the human eyes so much that they could hardly see the road around them clearly.
Soon, the soldiers on the grassland fell into panic again.
"Don't panic, everyone, rush up the slope and kill them!" Luge waved his hand to block the arrows fired at him and shouted loudly.
This is just a hilly area, and the hillsides are not high. It is no problem for the horses to rush up. If the opponent is only infantry, their cavalry will be scattered as soon as they come into contact.
I have to say that Ruger's idea is correct.
Unfortunately, he miscalculated one thing - like him, Chu Tianjiao was more of a cavalryman.
After two rounds of arrow rain, Shan Rongfei immediately led his soldiers and horses with a dragon flick, turned around and fought back to the valley. At the same time, the cavalry on both sides of the valley also rushed down the slope with thunderous momentum.
At this time, only 20,000 of Luge's 30,000 troops and horses were left. Chu Tianjiao's side, together with Shan Rongfei's 25,000 cavalry, and 10,000 infantry, were far superior in number and strength.
Ruger is left alone.
The battle situation immediately became one-sided, and the balance of victory was rapidly tilting towards Chu Tianjiao's side.
In the face of the savage and fierce prairie cavalry, the Red Flame Cavalry Regiment showed incomparable arrogance and bravery. This powerful army of He Lanji is indeed tough.
The entire valley instantly turned into a Shura field.
The cavalry charges in front and the infantry sweeps behind to prevent the opponent from catching half of the fish.
The whole scene was like a fisherman retracting his big net. The encirclement gradually shrank, and the number of available soldiers around Luge also decreased rapidly. Luge was also held back by the combined efforts of Shan Rongfei and Song Huaiming.
Although both of them were lower in rank than him, it was difficult for a good man to defeat the four punches, and the combined attack of the two fourth-level generals was not something Luger could withstand.
"Your Highness, I will cover you. Run away!"
A deputy general of the bodyguard beside him rushed over desperately, trying to help Luge block Shan Rongfei, but Shan Rongfei chopped off his head in just one encounter.
Luger also knew that the situation was over, so he immediately led his men to break out of the encirclement.
Unfortunately, Shan Rongfei and others did not give him a chance to break out.
Chu Tianjiao has an order to arrest Lu Ge alive.
Seeing Lu Ge fleeing out of the valley with hundreds of guards, Song Huaiming immediately screamed.
The infantrymen who had been hiding on both sides immediately stood up from the grass and pulled up the stumbling ropes on the ground.
hiss!
The horse's legs were stabbed by sharp spikes, and the horse stood up with its head neighing. Even Luger was thrown off the horse. However, these thousand infantry were specially prepared for him, and they were all the bravest guys selected from the team.
After overpowering all the cavalry, they immediately rushed towards him with swords and swords. One of them even raised his spear, landed next to Luger like an eagle, and put the tip of his spear under his throat. But it was the veteran Tang Yi who wanted to fight for Yi Xueqian.
Shame, this old general who is over fifty years old did not hesitate to bury himself under the ground for more than an hour, waiting for now.
Coldly pointing the tip of his spear at Luge, Tang Yi's eyes turned frosty, "Your Highness Luge, do you want all your troops to be buried with you?!"
Luge looked sideways at the men around him who were being chopped down one by one, and shouted sadly, "Ruger, sit down, no more resistance, all surrender!"
