Chapter 1416: Han Banner World (One Hundred and Six) Great Detour (Part 2)

Aguhuaien did not disappoint. Gu Li appeared on the battlefield within the scheduled time. She did not attack the Chu army at the first time. Thousands of Huns cavalry rushed into the Chu army cavalry at the first time. The small number of Chu troops remaining in the camp were like a few bubbles. They melted into the tide of Xiongnu soldiers in the blink of an eye. Torches were thrown into the tent, and raging flames rose into the sky. Forage, grain and other reserves were immediately caught in fire bombs.

Under the reflection of the fire, Gu Li led his Hun independent cavalry division to rush out of the sea of ​​​​fire. The ghostly face on his face looked particularly ferocious under the reflection of the fire.

Compared with Agu Huai'en, Gu Li, the ghost-faced general, is much more famous among the Chu people. She is almost synonymous with the Han cavalry's victorious battles. Over the years, the ghost-faced general has made great achievements in the battle against Qin. Chu people have long listed him as the most dangerous [pig][pig][island] novel ww.zuhm character.

Thousands of Xiongnu cavalry surrounded them from the outside. The Chu cavalry was surrounded by both inside and outside. The two cavalry that surrounded them were the most famous cavalry units on this continent. They were far superior in terms of equipment and combat power. Above the Chu army, the Chu army's cavalry had previously dealt with Agu Huai'en's Donghu independent cavalry division alone. The Chu army's cavalry could still manage to deal with it relying on its numerical advantage. However, when the Donghu army's independent cavalry division led by Gu Li arrived, the Chu army's cavalry It collapsed in an instant.

Escape has become the main theme of this moment.

The two cavalry divisions had a tacit understanding and simultaneously opened a passage in one direction, which was leading to the Chu infantry camp. The panicked Chu cavalry had no energy left to judge why the enemy in this direction was so weak. Instead, they tried their best to escape along the gap.

Behind them, two groups of Han cavalry followed closely. At this moment, their team had spread out, and they kept driving the Chu cavalry forward behind them.

Bai Xizhong, the general of the Chu army, could hardly believe that in such a short period of time. His own 10,000 cavalry collapsed. Under the cover of night, he did not know that there were as many as 10,000 Han cavalry chasing these Chu cavalry. At this moment, he was commanding the 20,000 soldiers of the right rear camp to march slowly in formation. He was originally planning to cooperate with the cavalry, but now, he discovered that his own cavalry might kill him.

"Array up!" Bai Xizhong shouted, "Archers. Prepare."

The phalanxes stopped one by one, took up their positions, and formed a spear formation with a forest of spears. The archers unfurled their bows and nocked arrows, pointing forward in the distance.

"Shout and walk left and right." Bai Xizhong said sternly.

Thousands of Chu soldiers shouted loudly, and the shouts of walking left and right resounded throughout the world. If these Chu cavalry were allowed to be driven forward. If he attacks the infantry's main formation, he is afraid that the 20,000 Chu infantrymen he brought out of the camp will die without a burial place.

The panicked Chu cavalry heard the shouts that echoed throughout the world and saw the brightly lit infantry phalanx in front of them, and they knew it in their hearts. If you rush over like this, you will either overwhelm your own army, or you will be shot into hedgehogs by your own infantry, and the running torrent will be separated left and right. Escape to the darkness on both sides.

The Han cavalry seemed to have no intention of attacking the Chu infantry. When the Chu army divided to the left and right, they also divided to the left and right. They relentlessly pursued the Chu army's cavalry, biting each other's flesh and blood.

"Fire the arrows!" Bai Xizhong ordered loudly. Even though the shouts resounded throughout the world, there were still the terrified Chu cavalry and the chasing Han cavalry rushing towards the military formation.

An overwhelming barrage of arrows were shot forward, and both the pursued and the pursuers were hit by arrows and fell down from their horses. In front of the military formation, it suddenly became empty, leaving only a few scattered war horses, which stopped alone.

The fighting on both wings was still going on. The Han cavalry was chasing the Chu army crazily. The Chu cavalry who had bypassed the formation had their next target to escape was the infantry camp in the rear.

"Change formation, retreat." Bai Xizhong understood the opponent's purpose, but now he had nothing to do. The Chu army infantry retreated slowly, turning their formation into an inverted triangle, and retreated towards their main camp.

The defense of the infantry camp also became a nightmare for the fleeing Chu troops at this time. In the dark night, the panicked Chu troops fell one after another in front of the trenches. However, in the camp, there were still 20,000 Chu troops left behind. The army set up battle arrays in the camp, with crossbows, stone cannons and other heavy weapons constantly pouring towards the sound of horse hooves outside the camp.

They couldn't tell whether what came in the dark was friendly troops or Han cavalry.

The sky was getting brighter, and the 20,000 infantrymen led by Bai Xizhong finally slowly retreated to their main camp. The camp was safe and sound, but outside the camp was like a Shura field, with corpses of people and horses scattered everywhere, including those from the Chu army and others. They belong to the Han army, but most of them are from the Chu people. The first trench outside the camp was almost filled with corpses of men and horses.

The Han cavalry did not leave. Standing outside the camp, he could clearly see that at the end of the field of vision, the Han army's yellow dragon flag was still flying. The Han cavalry seemed to be repairing their wounds after licking their wounds. , will the next target be yourself?

Bai Xizhong returned to the camp and began to arrange the next battle. The cavalry that served as his outer protection was finished. Although the scattered Chu cavalry kept returning after dawn, and he also gathered a lot of scattered soldiers along the way, in the best case, only half of the 10,000 cavalry returned to the camp. Many people also lost their horses and weapons. More importantly, they lost the confidence to fight against the Han cavalry.

Without the protection of the cavalry, he would be nailed here. No infantry could march forward under the surveillance of the powerful enemy cavalry.

"Have you sent a rescue letter to the friendly army?" He asked the deputy general beside him.

"We have set off. If everything goes well, our cavalry will arrive at the latest this afternoon." The deputy general replied.

Another great defeat. Bai Xizhong looked at the yellow dragon flag flying high in the wind in the distance. How did the Han cavalry hide from their own scouts and lurk here?

After breakfast in the camp, the scouts sent out also returned. The Han people seemed to care nothing about these scouts. They didn't even have the most basic vigilance. They allowed these scouts to approach for reconnaissance and then returned safely.

"They are making sandbags and cutting trees?" Hearing the scout's answer, Bai Xizhong was a little confused. Could it be that these more than 10,000 cavalrymen really wanted to attack their camp with their current strength? It turned out that in Bai Xizhong's imagination, the enemy's greatest possibility was to nail him here, which was their limit. But now it seems that the enemy doesn't think so.

As if to confirm Bai Xizhong's thoughts, an hour later, the flag of the Donghu Independent Cavalry Division appeared outside the camp. With the shrill sound of the military bugle, the enemy galloped over and quickly approached the camp. When approaching the camp, they threw the earthen bags on their horses with the help of horsepower. With the sound of clapping, one sandbag after another fell into the trench.

The distance between the Han cavalry and each other was very wide, and the crossbows in the camp had a limited hit rate against them. Moreover, even if the large-scale coverage shooting hit the target at this distance, it would only tickle the opponent. Bai Xizhong could only watch the opponent recklessly filling the trenches around the camp.

Half an hour later, the attackers were replaced by the Xiongnu Independent Cavalry Division.

"Report!" Several scouts came from a distance and rode in front of Guli and Agu Huai'en. "The Chu army's left wing cavalry and the central cavalry, a total of 20,000 cavalry, are rapidly approaching us, less than ten miles away from us."

Guli laughed, "Half a day's work has not been in vain. We have finally succeeded in luring them all over. General Agu, let's do it according to the previous plan. Can your brothers withstand it?"

"What can't the Donghu men withstand? Besides, haven't they been allowed to sleep for half a day today? Now they are full and watered, just right to throw their arms and do a big fight." Agu Huai'en laughed. A successful battle last night at least killed thousands of Chu cavalry. This is already a rare victory. At this moment, they are going to launch a large detour. Even if the tactical action of the large detour is not successful in the end, it is enough to have this victory at the bottom.

"We must move quickly. Now we have to race against time with the enemy. The distance the enemy cavalry retreats is half shorter than ours, but they cannot leave the right wing quickly. They must make sure that we have gone far. In addition, the Chu cavalry dare not travel quickly at night. This is our advantage. From now on, we have to spend time on horseback. Tomorrow at noon, we have to rush to the left wing and defeat their left wing infantry. General Agu, there are 40,000 people!"

"As long as they don't hide in the camp and give them no chance to form a solid square formation, what's so scary about 40,000 people?" Agu Huai'en sneered.

"Now, even if they form a solid square formation, we have a way to deal with it. The key is to prevent them from building a defensive position." Guli laughed. Jumped on the horse: "Boys, let's go!"

Tens of thousands of cavalry, like a flood, roared in, but roared away. In a blink of an eye, they ran away without a trace, leaving the Chu army with only a mess.

As Guli expected, the two cavalry units that came to help did not dare to leave in a hurry. It would take time to make sure that the two Han cavalry units had indeed left. The cavalry on the right wing had been beaten half-crippled, and they needed to allocate some troops to strengthen the protection of the right wing. Since the Han cavalry focused on attacking Bai Xizhong's troops, they naturally had to make all preparations.

At this time, no one thought that the real target of this Han cavalry was the infantry camp on the left wing. (To be continued.)
