Chapter 1511: Han Banner World 201 Decisive Battle 15
Bai Qi finally felt something was wrong.
The Han army Hun cavalry division that appeared in front of him had no intention of fighting him. The 10,000 cavalry led by Lu Yi tried several times to find an opportunity to fight the opponent, but the opponent had no intention of fighting. Although he had tens of thousands of cavalry, Bai Qi did not think that he would have much chance of winning against the Hun cavalry division, but the opponent seemed to have always set its sights on his main force and tried every means to slow down his advance.
This was not normal. Bai Qi pondered over the map for half a day, and finally realized it. When he understood it, he couldn't help but sweat. He was falling into a huge encirclement. Behind him was the Bashu uprising army, and on the side, the Han army's first military region that had broken through Hangu Pass might come over at any time. If the front was blocked again, he would have no way to go up to the sky and no way to go down to the earth.
"Lu Yi!" he shouted. "Lead your cavalry and advance to Bin County immediately. Ignore the small-scale entanglement of the Xiongnu cavalry division unless they launch a large-scale attack on you."
"General, if I leave, what if they attack our main force? The flank will lose protection!" Lu Yi said in surprise.
Bai Qi gritted his teeth and sneered: "They are not interested in launching an attack on me. Even if they attack me, you should ignore it and keep advancing to Bin County. Seize Bin County."
"I understand, General." Lu Yi didn't really understand it, but he knew that he just had to obey, move forward, advance to Bin County and seize it.
Listening to the rapid sound of horse hooves leaving, Bai Qi felt cold. It had been three days since the Xiongnu cavalry division began to attack him. I don't know what the situation in Bin County is now. Is it too late to save everything?
His eyes returned to the map.
Lu Yi was only about 80 miles away from Bin County, and finally saw these days. He had been trying to find the opponent cavalry he wanted to fight with, and now he had to admire the judgment of General Bai Qi. Along the way, he completely ignored the harassment of the opponent's small forces. He unswervingly gathered his troops and rushed to Bin County. Finally, the opponent no longer followed him and attacked him, but gathered in front of him in a large scale.
This place is called Liulinzi. As the name suggests, there are naturally large tracts of willow trees. Looking at the Han cavalry marching out of the large tracts of willow trees in front, Lu Yi's eyes showed a fanatical look.
All the troops under Bai Qi. They were all recruited and trained in accordance with the Han army's drill after Ying Ying succeeded to the throne. They were a new army that was completely different from the past army. Whether it was equipment or combat effectiveness, they had to be greatly improved. Including the cavalry in front of them, the cavalry in leather armor were all equipped with lances and crossbows, their biggest dream.
It was a direct confrontation with the enemy's large-scale cavalry, but in the past few years, the troops led by Bai Qi have been working to eliminate the rebels. The rebels had no cavalry, not to mention horses. Facing those rebels who ran away when the army came and gathered again when the army left, Lu Yi had no chance to fight. More often, he was used as a scout by Bai Qi, which made him hold his breath.
And in front of him was the opportunity he had always dreamed of. More than ten years ago. The former emperor Ying Ying led 20,000 cavalry to track the Xiongnu royal court for thousands of miles on the prairie, and finally killed the direct troops of the Xiongnu royal court and all the royal family on the prairie. The Xiongnu fell into silence and eventually became a vassal of the Han Dynasty. And now, what Lu Yi wants to do is to replicate the glorious achievements of the former emperor.
"Prepare to attack!" Lu Yi shouted excitedly with a hoarse voice, holding the lance high in his hand.
Tens of thousands of lances were raised at the same time, and in the other hand, the cavalry crossbow with crossbow arrows already loaded was raised.
Guli stared at the Qin cavalry with cold eyes, and what flashed before her eyes was a miserable scene on the grassland more than ten years ago. Countless tribesmen were chopped off by the fierce cavalry, and the cold iron hooves trampled the fallen tribesmen into a human form. One by one, her relatives fell in a pool of blood. The shrill screams entangled her in many nights in the future, making her unable to sleep at night and unable to taste food.
Several caring tribesmen changed her clothes into ordinary people's clothes and protected her with their bodies. When the Qin soldiers cut off the heads of her father and brothers and whistled away, they forgot that there was a legitimate daughter of the royal court. She survived by chance. The vicissitudes of life, she thought she would hide her name and live an ordinary life, but the Qin people came again. The desire for revenge made her forget to hide her identity. She left her husband and two young sons, put on her armor and stepped onto the battlefield. Under that situation, she was not prepared to come back alive, and it didn't matter if her identity was exposed. But fate played a trick on her. Not only did she survive, but she also became a famous and only female general in the Han Dynasty. Of course, her identity was exposed. An ordinary Xiongnu woman could not have her knowledge and skills. She thought she would be secretly dealt with at an appropriate time, and she was afraid that her husband and children would be implicated. But to her surprise, no one mentioned her identity. But she was sure that it was impossible to hide it from the Emperor of the Han Dynasty and Cao Tianci, whose nose was as sensitive as a dog.
Her heart was full of gratitude. The blood descendants of the Xiongnu royal court would still inherit. Even if they would no longer have the glory of the past, it would be enough to pass on the incense alive. Only in the relaxed environment of the Han Empire , this was only possible because of the Han emperor’s mind, which was broader than the prairie.
She vowed to spend her life maintaining the country that had given her hope and passion again.
The follow-up troops have not yet arrived in Bin County. Now, there are only deputy commander Bai Yucheng and his 500 soldiers. If Lu Yi and the 10,000 cavalry are allowed to arrive, the previous strategic plan will inevitably come to naught. She must be there Meet your opponent head-on here. Buy time for Bin County.
Ten thousand cavalry, how many? Even if their equipment is very good, they cannot compare with the cavalry behind them. The opponent's tactics completely copied the methods of the black guards trained by He Lanyan back then. Of course, it was difficult to fight, but when two strong men meet, the brave one wins.
She slowly pulled out the scimitar from her waist and raised it high. The sun shone on the blade, and cold rays of light shone. As she raised her scimitar, the five thousand Huns cavalry raised their scimitars high into the sky in unison with a chorus of choking sounds. In the other hand, like the Qin soldiers opposite, he also held a riding crossbow.
"Destroy them!" Gu Li shouted sharply, clamping the war horse between his legs, and the war horse accelerated sharply under his crotch, and rushed forward like an arrow.
Nearly 20,000 cavalrymen were like two surging waves, fiercely colliding with each other. In the sky, countless crossbow arrows roared through the air, shuttled back and forth, tore apart armor, and plunged into the chest. The sound of heavy arrows falling to the ground was fierce. The sound of weapons clashing, the dying cries of war horses, and the dying cries of cavalry resounded throughout the willow forest in an instant.
In Bin County, Bai Yucheng sat cross-legged on the roof of the city tower, raising his eyes and staring in the direction where the Hengdao should appear. The scouts had sent the latest intelligence from the front. Bai Qi was indeed the Qin general with the sharpest sense of smell among the Qin army. He quickly discovered something was wrong. Now, he had rushed over, and in order to buy time for himself, Gu Li had to fight the enemy head-on. But Gu Li couldn't hold on for long, because once she was strangled head-on with the enemy's cavalry, Bai Qi behind Lu Yi would immediately pounce on him like a greedy cat that smelled the smell of fish. By that time, Gu Li would have to retreat, and the door to Bin County would be open. But before that, if Hengdao didn't arrive in time, he would have to run away with his tail between his legs.
This is really an unpleasant feeling! Bai Yucheng lamented in his heart that he had never fought such an uncertain battle in several years. In the past, he had not calculated all the links carefully, linking them one by one until the enemy was completely nailed.
However, this feeling is so exciting! It seems like it's back to that time, when I took Tiger Head, Hengdao and other gangs to wreak havoc in Donghu territory, and I was driven around like wild dogs many times.
Thinking back to those days, Bai Yucheng couldn't help but spit, Damn, the officials are getting bigger and bigger, but their courage is getting smaller and smaller. At that time, they had a little power and their ambitions were as high as the sky, but now they are a little bit less. Trouble, I’m just thinking about it here.
As time passed, Bai Yucheng's heart grew higher and higher. He stood up and stared at the sun in the sky. In the direction of Liulinzi, a fast horse galloped towards this side. His My heart suddenly dropped. This must be the messenger sent by Gu Li. Has Bai Qi arrived?
It seemed that he was really going to run away with his tail between his legs. He laughed to himself. Just as he was about to jump off the roof, he inadvertently raised his head and looked in the other direction. At this moment, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed. , a military flag suddenly jumped out from the horizon, followed by a dark line, and then more flags popped up. Countless people were running towards this side. Although they were out of formation and in a mess, in Bai Yucheng's view, they were the truly lovely people at this moment.
Hengdao personally carried the military flag and ran at the front of the team.
Liu Linzi and Gu Li took off their devil masks that were stained red with blood. Bai Qi's large group of infantry had already caught up. He had to retreat, otherwise he would be surrounded and the whole army would be destroyed. It had to be said that on the opposite side, The cavalry is the most powerful opponent she has ever encountered.
"Retreat!" Turning the horse's head, she walked in the other direction. "Deputy Commander Bai, I have tried my best. The rest is up to you." (To be continued.)
