Kebal led the army continuously forward. Someone in Linyi rebelled. The king of Linyi was eager to put down the rebellion, so he naturally had to transfer a large number of troops to the capital. At this time, their power in the south was naturally extremely weak.
Kebal had sent someone to ask the king for instructions, but at the same time he also made a bold decision.
Zhenwa has been eyeing Lin Yi for a long time. As a northern country that has just annexed Funan Country a few years ago, Zhenwa is somewhat ambitious now. However, the Tang Dynasty is too powerful, and Zhenwa cannot attack the surrounding countries. The country used force because the surrounding countries were all vassals of the Tang Dynasty.
If they want to use force, they can only mediate through the Tang Dynasty. No one dares to face the army of the Tang Dynasty, so they have no chance whether they want to or not, but this time it is different.
There is a rebellion in Linyi. Of course they, Zhenwa, want to help their neighboring countries, and there is another thing. If the king of Linyi puts down the rebellion soon, then he will say it is to protect Zhenwa’s princess Su Ye. Princess Li, don’t care whether Su Yeli is important or not, she is very important at this time, and she must be important!
If Su Yeli "dies", then Lin Yi must pay the price!
Kebal never thought about destroying Lin Yi, at least the eight thousand soldiers in his hands couldn't do it. Even he only brought five hundred elite war elephant troops, but he snatched a large piece of land from Lin Yi's hands. It's definitely no problem.
Along the way, Kebal also sent out many scouts to investigate the situation, but he himself was also leading the army quickly.
The news sent back by the scouts reassured Kebal. There were no enemies in front of him. It could be said that the area was flat. It was not until they arrived at Kunnan City that two scouts disappeared.
But it didn't matter if he disappeared. Kebal didn't take it to heart at all. Maybe their investigation was too aggressive and they were accidentally caught or killed by the enemy. Even if there is no rebellion, Lin Yi is not as powerful as them. Can he be stronger than usual if there is a rebellion at this time? !
Now our own army is marching rapidly, running thousands of miles, and in military terms it is as fast as the wind. How could these Linyi troops have thought of it? !
This wins him for sure!
Liu Yilong and Pei Xingjian were speechless. Are these the real wax scouts? You call this a scout? Don't embarrass the scout, okay? Just ride a horse all the way from the official road like this, and then turn around and look around. You don't look at any of the strategic places on both sides of the official road, and you don't cover up your figure. What the hell do you call this? Scout?
For those who know, you are a scout, but for those who don’t, they may think you are just visiting your own back garden.
The point is that they captured two scouts, and the enemy sent out several more scouts. However, the next few scouts behaved the same way, and went back without any problems after walking around for a while.
"Their strategic level is not good. Our requirements should not be too high. I have just asked clearly. Their main force is also marching here in a hurry. It is only a day's journey at most." Liu Yilong said.
"Okay, it seems that some of our previous strategies no longer work. Since the enemy is so careless, we can just attack directly." Pei Xingjian thought for a while.
"Your Highness asked us to test our offensive methods, what do you think?" Liu Yilong looked at him.
"Test the effect of arrow rain? This place is just right for an ambush. The scouts will definitely be back in about an hour. By then we will be ambushing on both sides of the mountain. Although they have three thousand more than us, and there are five hundred elephants. Soldiers. But with two hundred crossbows to hold down the formation, soldiers will directly send a wave of arrow rain from other directions to test it." Pei Xingjian thought for a while.
"Okay." Liu Yilong didn't pursue tactics too much. Sometimes the simpler tactics are more effective.
The ambush location chosen by the two people was the only way to go on the official road. They only needed to ambush on the peaks on both sides. And because of the terrain problem, there were only a few places where they could charge up. .
It would be difficult for people to climb up the rest of the area without harassment, so bed crossbows were placed in several important places for defense.
The weapons and equipment of the navy are very abnormal. For example, the navy has a recurve bow. It does not matter whether it is used or not, but it is there, and the total number of bows far exceeds the total number of people in the navy.
At present, Liu Yilong and his five thousand soldiers carry 5,000 recurve bows and 200 crossbows.
The two men directly ambush a thousand soldiers at the front and rear. After entering the encirclement, a thousand soldiers at the front and back blocked the enemy's way back and forth. The middle was directly covered with bows and arrows. Let's do a wave first.
When Kebal's army arrived at the ambush site of Liu Yilong and others, the threatening terrain did not make Kebal as alert as he should have been, because his scouts told him that the front was safe and there were no human settlements at all, and they were too comfortable. For a long time... or in other words, when the scale of the war is not large, how vigilant you expect them to be is empty talk.
What's more, Kebal, who came along the way, didn't even think that Lin Yi had the power to oppose him.
When he reached this relatively steep terrain, although Kebal did not feel as alert as he should have, he still issued an order that all the troops should pass quickly and wait until they passed before resting.
When Kebal followed a large number of troops to the middle section, suddenly a sharp whistling sound rose into the sky from the valleys on both sides. Before Kebal could react, there was a huge "boom" The roar echoed throughout the valley.
Then countless soldiers stood up in the mountains and forests on both sides. Before Kebar could see clearly who these soldiers were, a hail of arrows hit him.
"Pfft..." there was a dull sound of a bow and arrow penetrating into flesh, and a guard beside Kebal let out a scream. An arrow pierced his neck directly, and then he fell down screaming. On the carriage in front of Kebal.
The donated blood on his neck continued to spray along the gaps in the arrows. The key point was that the arrows that penetrated the neck and were filled with blood shone with an icy cold light!
Iron arrow? ! An idea came to Kebal's mind that frightened him!
The constant screams and wails of the soldiers around him made Kebal feel bad. No wonder he felt that the arrow was surprisingly powerful!
"Blow the trumpet, everyone will die if we go down." Liu Yilong was a little helpless, these people were too impatient to kill.
"Beep beep beep..." The terrifying charge horn suddenly resounded throughout the valley.
The soldiers on the mountain peaks on both sides put down their bows and arrows, drew out the long knives from their waists, and rushed down the hillside. At the same time, they shouted: "Surrender without killing!"
In fact, there was no need for them to yell at all. When they saw the soldiers on the mountains on both sides rushing down, the real wax soldiers who were still alive dropped their weapons without hesitation and knelt on the ground. They had long since lost the courage to resist!
