The scouting horses came to report from time to time, and the Xiliang army advanced rapidly. Three hours later, looking from a distance, one could already see the smoke and dust kicked up by the horses, covering the top like dark clouds, pressing over them.
Everyone couldn't help but become nervous. If they tried to enter the city, it would be over. Locusts would definitely cross the border and leave no chickens or dogs behind. The 100,000 civilians and more than a thousand soldiers would be wiped out.
…
It was difficult to calm down the nervous mood, and I struggled to stand by the approach of the Xiliang Army. The city was towering, and my eyes could see far, near, and even closer...
Less than ten miles away from the city wall, the Xiliang Army passed around the city as expected. Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief and gave Guo Jia a thumbs up, regardless of whether he understood what he meant.
Before he could catch his breath, Zhao Yun said anxiously: "Brother, there are hundreds of people rushing to the city gate!"
Ye Feng turned over and looked around. Sure enough, several small groups left the main group and ran towards the city gate. The number of people was not large, only four to five hundred people in total. The speed was extremely fast, and they were only about three miles away from the city gate. Ye Feng made a decision immediately.
"Let's go down to the city to ambush, we can't let any of them escape!"
He quickly walked down to the city and ordered Xun Yu and Yu Linlang to ambush around the city gate. When the enemy entered the city, they would close the city gate and defend to the death. He and Zhao Yun set up pockets two hundred steps away.
The Xiliang army that was separated was very fast. As soon as Ye Feng was ready, he shouted and rushed into the city gate. They were not armored horses, but light cavalry! Ye Feng was overjoyed, it was easy to deal with them.
The Xiliang army was unprepared. They came in just to pick up the leaks and see if they could make a little fortune. They swarmed in. Xun Yu was ordered to close the city gate. Ye Feng also put the prepared beams and other things on the street.
The Baixi Liang army suddenly became a lamb to be slaughtered.
Just as the Xiliang army was in panic and surprise, locust arrows were flying densely in the sky, whizzing incessantly. One by one, they pierced into the skin and flesh, and they shot at random regardless of people or horses!
Originally, Ye Feng tried to save horses as much as possible during the war. Now that he has the Soul Calling Tower and discovered that horse souls can be tamed, the war horses have also suffered. Of course, good horses must be kept, and Yulin Lang is a master of riding skills.
After a shower of arrows, the Xiliang army was reduced in size, and more than half of them were killed. The Overlord army then attacked from all sides. The Xiliang cavalry without iron armor had no chance, and one shot opened a transparent hole!
The battle started and ended in only a quarter of an hour, and there were no casualties, and the tragic cries of the dying soldiers could not be heard for several miles. The Xiliang army that was fighting the autumn wind was completely annihilated, hundreds of war horses were captured, and there were more soul-calling towers.
Hundreds more souls.
The Yulin Army cleaned up the battlefield and cleaned up all the corpses. Now a small group of troops came over, and there would inevitably be more later. They couldn't leave any clues. Ye Feng returned to the city and stared at the Xiliang army.
The army passed by in a hurry, and no one paid attention to these comrades who had left the team privately. After waiting for another five hours and eliminating thousands of people who were greedy for gain, the regular army finally passed by without finding the baggage troops! The army was pressing down on the border, and it was difficult for the exploration horses to move.
There is no valuable return.
But Ye Feng can't move, not even without definite news!
After waiting for three hours, Tan Ma finally brought reliable news: the Xiliang army was camped on the top of a mountain 150 miles west of Luoyang. The baggage team was about to arrive in Luoyang. It was escorted by 10,000 to 20,000 elite armored troops. The leader of the army was an extraordinary general.
!
hiss……
Everyone took a breath of cold air. Ten or twenty thousand armored troops! How to deal with it! Guo Jia also frowned. He didn’t expect that the enemy troops were so carefully protected when they fled. Do we have to give up this operation? But what if we don’t grab some food?
How can one hundred thousand civilians survive in the city!
The more difficult it was, the more trouble there was. A man came from the city with a sad face and asked to see Ye Feng. When Ye Feng saw that he was a representative of the common people, he had to see him and ordered someone to bring him over.
The visitor wept and prostrated and said, "I would like to ask Lang Cuijun to pursue the traitor Dong and avenge my father!"
Ye Feng was surprised when he heard this and frowned: "Dong's thieves are so powerful that they are difficult to eradicate. The coalition forces of more than half of the princes have not been able to injure him yet. How can I do that?"
When Cui Jun heard this, his face was full of disappointment, his eyes were dull, and he suddenly vomited out a mouthful of blood. Without wiping it, he bowed down and said: "Jun's younger brother Cui Jun is the prefect of Xihe under the general's rule. Please inform the general that my father has been killed by the Dong thief.
Avenge this blood revenge for me."
Ye Feng was shocked and asked anxiously: "Your Majesty, is this Cui Situ?"
Cui Jun looked ashamed. His father had bought the official position. His younger brother said it smelled like copper, so he remained silent.
Ye Feng understood and advised: "Your Majesty, your vengeance will definitely be avenged, but it is not advisable to rush into this matter. Let me figure it out slowly, and you can rest assured and cultivate yourself."
"Thank you, General, and all of you will retire."
Ye Feng looked at Cui Jun going away and sighed, knowing that this man's life was not long. He said that his father was also dead, but the important thing was his brother-Cui Jun!
Cui Jun, also known as Zhou Ping, is recorded as one of the Four Friends of Zhuge in the Romance. He has good relations with Zhuge Liang, Shi Guangyuan and Meng Gongwei. He does not seek fame and fame. He belongs to a reclusive master and a high scholar! At this time, he is the prefect of Xihe. He is witty and strategic, both in military and political affairs.
However, together with Yuan Shao and others, he raised an army to attack Dong Zhuo. It was precisely because of his raising an army that Dong Zhuo destroyed his entire family, and his brother Cui Jun took advantage of the chaos to escape.
If they could recruit Cui Zhouping, the trip would be in vain. They immediately dispatched capable soldiers to report Cui Jun's words to Cui Zhouping. They showed their good will first. Plus Xihe was originally a subordinate of Bingzhou Mu, so there should be no problem.
After this interruption, Guo Jiaqi's depressed mood improved a little, and he said: "It's not all a plan."
Ye Feng glared at him angrily: "The situation is so urgent, but you still have time to show off!"
Guo Jia put his hand on his forehead and said: "Ahem... I'm used to it... Ahem... The enemy's army has a lot of baggage, so it will be delayed for a long time. Even if there are ten thousand people to protect it, it will not be able to take care of both the beginning and the end. We will set off for most of Xiliang tomorrow.
After that, I will have many suspicious troops and attack the rear troops."
Ye Feng rolled his eyes directly, nn, if I have soldiers, I will create a formation of suspicious soldiers, which will directly make me stronger. With just a few people, I still have to subordinate them to become suspicious soldiers... What a fart!
At this time, Xun Yu intervened: "Feng Xiao's words are reasonable. The new troops recruited are not good at fighting. If they can be made to hold more flags and pretend to be pursuers and ambushes from various princes, the Xiliang army will definitely not dare to fight. We and others will
Cutting off the back 30% is enough!"
oh……!
"That makes sense! This is a wonderful plan!" When the fake is true, the truth is also false. The Xiliang army never expected that there were so many soldiers here, let alone that they had only trained for a day. They would definitely think that it was a light cavalry pursuit by the allied forces of the princes. How wonderful!
He also remembered the trick that Zhang Fei used on Changbanpo, and said excitedly: "Deploy fifty Yu Lin Lang, lead five new armies respectively to establish the old suspicion formation, allocate hundreds of war horses, and order many branches to be tied to the horses' tails.
Running back and forth makes the smoke and dust fly everywhere, making the enemy even more frightened!"
Guo Jia chuckled and said, "My lord is so insidious! It's not as good as Jia."
Ye Fengyu kept staring until he could no longer sit still and got up and ran away in despair. Everyone objected, and Zhao Yun personally arranged to implement the plan.
Ye Feng continued to monitor at the top of the city, but for the time being, he took turns to rest. After all, only 30% of them were left to face one or even two rounds of attacks from thousands of cavalry. The cavalry in the field was no better than in the city! The cavalry must be the most advantageous.
