Even Yan Gang noticed something was wrong with such a coincidence, and the talented man was no exception.
But he understands one thing.
Whether true or false, the weak water barrier has been broken.
This is the biggest headache.
This is one of the most important passages for the Xiongnu to enter the Hexi Corridor. To be precise, it is the closest passage to Hexi. Once the weak water barrier is broken, the Xiongnu will pounce like a scourge.
Fortunately, the first batch of reinforcements has arrived, and there are 20,000 soldiers. If they can block Ruoshui Pass as soon as possible and recapture Ruoshui Pass.
Then the problem may not be too serious, otherwise...
We are competing for time now, so even if it may be a trap, the talented man has to fall into it.
Fortunately, he has enough cards, so the talented man can still hold his own.
"March at full speed!"
Lin Bai gave an order, and the mighty army left quickly.
The Hexi Corridor is said to be a corridor, but in fact it is extremely broad, with a total length of 1,200 kilometers. The widest part is more than 300 kilometers, and the narrowest part is several kilometers. Compared with the Qilian Mountains in the south and the Gobi in the north, This place is extremely fertile and has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.
Under the guidance of the spies, the army advanced rapidly.
Yan Gang always paid careful attention to his surroundings.
By this time, the sky was getting dark.
"Uncle, it's going to be dark soon. If we continue going forward, I'm afraid..."
Zhuiyue was obviously a little worried. She had a heavy responsibility and she didn't care what happened to other people, but nothing could happen to her uncle. It was dark and it was undoubtedly more dangerous.
However, Lin Bai smiled and said, "Isn't it better when it's dark?"
Zhuiyue was startled for a moment, and then understood instantly.
There may be some concerns about using gunpowder in broad daylight.
But it's different at night. No one can see or know what's going on.
Before coming, the talented man and his wives specially selected a team of absolutely reliable personal guards. The number was small, only about a hundred people, led by Zhui Yue. They not only protected the safety of my uncle, but also dealt with gunpowder.
Thinking of the power of gunpowder, Zhuiyue felt a lot more at ease.
"just in front!"
At this time, the sky had completely darkened, and the surroundings were completely gray. The spies led the way and rode quickly.
Yan Gang said: "That's not right, it's too quiet!"
It was indeed a little strangely quiet. If there had been an ambush nearby, there should never have been anything like this, with some movement.
Lin Bai couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
Soon, the group passed through the jungle and saw an extremely flat grassland in front of them.
Yan Gang frowned. Such an area could be seen through at a glance. It had nothing to do with an ambush.
But the reality was obviously different from what he thought. When the army marched for a certain distance, the sound of countless horses running and shouting suddenly came from the front.
"not good!"
Yan Gang's expression changed drastically, "There is indeed an ambush."
In addition to Liu Yunfeng, the army also had two generals. It was Wang Xiong who was following Lin Bai at the moment. Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but have a trace of panic on his face, and was about to order a temporary retreat into the jungle.
Unexpectedly, there was a killing cry and the sound of horse hooves coming from the jungle behind.
The army seemed to be attacked from both sides.
"Damn it!"
Wang Xiong couldn't help but curse, and was about to question the spy, but found that the spy had already disappeared into the night.
Yan Gang turned livid with anger, "Protect Your Highness."
The army was instantly ready.
Wang Xiong was also a little panicked. His vision was blocked at night and he could not determine how many enemies there were. However, the rushing and neighing sounds of countless horses, as well as the dense black shadows, were definitely several times larger than them.
And it is obvious that the other party has premeditated it.
"Your Highness, please leave first!"
The great talent is the most popular prince in the dynasty. If something unexpected happens, it will be an earthquake.
How dare Wang Xiong be negligent?
Lin Bai was unmoved, his eyes narrowed, "The whole army is on alert. Listen to this prince's order and maintain formation and retreat to the left."
While speaking, he winked at Yan Gang.
Yan Gang understood and waved his hand, and a group of soldiers moved forward quickly and threw some unknown things around the army. As the army retreated, they started throwing them away. Because it was night, they couldn't see very clearly. Some of them didn't look big. Some of them are not very small, and there are circles and circles.
Until the Hun cavalry was approaching in the distance, and the army quickly retreated under a cliff.
The soldiers were obviously a little nervous.
Zhuge Liannu was ready to go, waiting for Lin Bai's order.
But at this moment, the neighing of horses suddenly came from the Hun cavalry in the distance, and then some horses fell. As the neighing became more and more loud, more and more horses fell.
All the troops leaving the DPRK looked at each other in shock.
They haven't taken action at all. There is still some distance between the two sides and they are not within range.
But soon, they thought about what their companions had just thrown. Could it be that this was what caused these Huns cavalry to be hit?
Because at night, they couldn't see clearly what it was.
Even they couldn't see clearly, let alone the Huns.
Moreover, these cavalry were coming with great force. It was night again, and they couldn't see clearly what was going on behind them when they fell in front. They still charged forward, causing secondary damage that was far greater than the direct damage.
There was still some distance between the two sides, and an unknown number of the Huns' cavalry had already fallen.
"Damn the Dali dog thieves. If you dare to play dirty tricks, kill them!"
The Huns cavalry seemed to be irritated. If they were not aware of this situation, they might retreat first. After all, they fell in large numbers before they even encountered their opponents.
But they knew that there were only 2,000 people on the other side, and they had taken precautions beforehand, so they had no worries.
To them, a mere two thousand people were nothing more than a rush to kill.
The reason why we chose such an open place was because there would be cavalry to play.
So they didn't back down.
Still rushing up like a flood.
But more and more people fell down, more and more people were trampled, and the whole scene was in chaos and a mess.
By this time, they had also entered the shooting range.
"Fire the arrow!"
Lin Bai gave the order, and immediately, countless sharp arrows turned into a rain of arrows and attacked.
With howls of agony, countless Huns cavalry fell.
Not only was the Zhuge Liannu's lethality astonishing, but also because of his continuous fire, which greatly saved the soldiers time. Waves of arrows rained down like an overwhelming force.
The Xiongnu army suffered an unknown amount of damage in an instant.
Although it was night and I couldn't see very clearly, I could still see a series of chain reactions that were densely packed together, like tarot cards.
However, the number of the Xiongnu army was obviously beyond imagination. Many fell and many came up.
Stepping on the corpse of his companion.
This is the terrifying thing about the Hun cavalry charge.
Under such a charge, the opponent must be frightened.
Fortunately, it was night, so the psychological impact on the soldiers was not that terrifying, and the sense of oppression was not that strong. Otherwise, the combat effectiveness of Li Chao's army would have been greatly reduced.
After paying an unknown price, the Huns army finally rushed to the front.
A loud shout rang out, "Da Li Dog Thief, you have hurt so many of my brothers. This general will kill you in pieces today!"
The rolling Xiongnu army was like a flood, and it was about to rush forward.
Suddenly, a loud rumbling sound was heard.
…
"It broke out for seven days in a row, and it was exhausted!"
