Chapter 1 The big thief (Seventh Chapter) used only a hundred horse thieves to break through the defense line of more than 500 Turkic wolf riders. This was indeed a victory worth celebrating. But after counting the results, the horse thieves could no longer be happy.
In the encounter, everyone hacked to death at least more than a hundred Turkic warriors, but more than twenty of their own companions were left forever on the grassland. In addition, there were more than a dozen people in the team who suffered serious knife wounds. If not
If they find a place to resettle in time, they have no hope of returning to the Central Plains.
"This deal is not a good deal!" Liu Jizhen, the leader of the stronghold, shook his head and smiled bitterly. He was bringing with him all the elites of the stronghold. Everyone had experienced more than three years of bloody days.
More than thirty people were killed, and it would take at least two days to walk from here to the mountainous area at the junction of Sui Dynasty and the grassland. If the tribes along the way were as fierce as the pursuers in the morning, even if they could return to the Central Plains safely, the big flag of Gust Wind should be
Got down
"We can't just run away. If we continue like this, without Ashina Queyu leading a large group of people to chase us up, these little grasshoppers will eat us into bones and dregs along the way!" Wu Heitao interjected in a low voice not to argue with others.
At that time, his words were so insightful that even Liu Hongji and Zhang Liang, the two brothers, nodded at the side.
"If we fight against them during the day, our people will suffer less. But Yu is probably crazy this time. He doesn't even consider whether hundreds of horses are worth making such a big fuss!" Niu Jinda, who never likes to talk, added in a low voice.
After finishing, his eyes fell on Li Xu, his eyes looked extremely strange.
"It's the boy who dragged everyone down!" Li Xu quickly stepped forward and took the initiative to assume his responsibility. The Turkic warriors in the morning were obviously coming for him. If everyone went separately, it would be much easier for the horse thieves to escape. Instead of sitting here,
Now that we are waiting for others to rush, it is better to put forward the suggestion of traveling separately.
Before he could say his suggestion, Liu Jizhen looked at him and suddenly laughed.
"You said I tied you up and sold you to Ashina Choyu. Will he give me hundreds of good horses for free?" Liu Jizhen smiled, and the flesh on his face was shiny.
"This is a good idea. He set all the fires by himself, and killed all the people by himself!" Wu Heita walked forward and put his arm around Li Xu's shoulders. "But if we do this, we won't have to do it in the future."
Goodbye, whoever saw the world’s heroes spit in our face! We can’t wipe it yet. If we do, someone will definitely spit on it again.”
Everyone burst into laughter, and the depressing atmosphere was slightly relieved. At this moment, some people began to arrange for the horse thieves to find shallow water and use sheepskin rafts to cross the river. Others used ropes to lead the horses and led them one by one to swim to the other side. Li Xu couldn't insert it.
After getting started, he could only follow Liu Hongji and watch the fun. Watching, watching, he suddenly had a good idea.
"The Turks have black eagles to help us. No matter how fast we go, they will not lose us!" Li Xu reminded Liu Hongji in a low voice as he tugged on Liu Hongji's sleeves.
"I saw it, but if that beast doesn't fall down, we can't shoot it at all!" Liu Hongji didn't look back, his eyes were still fixed on the grassland on the river. He who has a big fist is respected. If he just runs away blindly, no matter whether the nearby tribes have
Whether you have a grudge or not, you will take the opportunity to rush over and beat up the drowned dog. If you want to prevent others from chasing you, you can only cripple the few groups of people who are chasing the most fiercely.
"I guess Ashina Queyu can't summon too many soldiers and horses at the same time, so he wants to use the herdsmen to consume our strength. When we are almost exhausted, his wolf cavalry should also appear! So, let's
We have to find a way to eat up the latest group of pursuers, so that other tribes who want to gain benefits can weigh whether they are sure to keep us!"
After hearing this, Liu Hongji's eyes suddenly lit up as he was looking at the river in deep thought. He turned around and whispered: "You mean, fight back?"
Li Xu's analysis coincided with his idea, but the number of horse thieves was too small. If any tribe's soldiers and horses caught up with them, they would be more than five times the number of horse thieves in a head-on fight. There was no possibility of victory for everyone.
"I wonder if we can set up an ambush on the other side of the river?" Li Xu nodded and tentatively suggested that in the notes left by Master Yang, there are many examples of fighting with a small number, and one of them is very similar to the current situation.
When the master craftsman analyzed this battle case with him, he was very impressed with the arrangement of Yue Gong Yang Su at that time.
"Striking halfway across the border is indeed a good way to hit more with less!" Liu Hongji looked Li Xu up and down again and praised loudly. This was also the one-move strategy he had just thought of to defeat the enemy. However, he has already done so three times this year.
Ten years old, and Li Xu is only half his age
If the two people's coincident ideas shocked Liu Hongji, Li Xu's next suggestion made him even more speechless. Pointing to the waist-deep grass on the other side of the river, Li Xu added in a low voice: "If
Let the injured who cannot go into battle hide behind the bushes and wave flags and shout, stab more straw men, place more flags, and then shoot hundreds of arrows randomly..."
"If I were Ashina Choyu, I would have chopped you off the day before yesterday!" Liu Hongji slapped Li Xu on the shoulder hard and praised in the language unique to horse thieves.
"So how can you say that the wizened man has bad ideas!" Wu Heitai, who just happened to be pulling his horse by, smiled and gave his latest evaluation of Li Xu.
After crossing the river, Liu Hongji called several leaders together and repeated Li Xu's suggestion. Everyone praised it. You said it, and I completed the plan with one word.
Among the crowd, Liu Hongji and Wu Heita were the best in martial arts. Each of them led twenty horse thieves to attack the enemy's flanks diagonally. Zhang Liang and Niu Jinda were the better archers among the crowd, leading thirty brothers to take charge.
On the front, first use feather arrows to create chaos, and then break through from the center to push the enemy into the water. The remaining twenty-odd brothers who can fight are led by Liu Jizhen. He is the leader of the Guofeng gang.
Brother Lu's mission was his unrivaled responsibility and there were more than a dozen wounded people who could not carry their swords into battle. Liu Jizhen gathered them together and handed them over to Li Xu's hands.
"You are young, and you are still wearing glory. Don't draw your knife and fight with others later. It was your idea, and you should be responsible for how to fool the enemy!" Liu Jizhen patted Li Xu on the shoulder and ordered in a low voice.
"I can go into battle! I can shoot a crow a hundred and twenty steps away. I can also..." Li Xu protested loudly. Everyone actively avoided confusing the enemy when arranging tasks. This role was not recognized for a day.
The horse thieves took such good care of him, and he was extremely touched.
"Am I the boss or are you the boss!" Liu Jizhen pretended to be angry and scolded loudly, "Go quickly and tie up the straw men and make flags. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
"Coax!" The men laughed loudly, and the bright laughter frightened the flocks of waterfowl.
