Chapter 168: Big Trouble

The wound on Arenda's face was extremely terrifying. It was wiped horizontally by the knife in Gao Yuan's hand, and a big gash was cut across the entire right side of his face. In the middle, the Donghu cavalry, whose strength was greatly suppressed, escaped from the battlefield with Arenda's screams, and the army was in a state of confusion. Gao Yuan drove his horse straight into the Donghu cavalry from among them. , one-handed military stabbing, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, in an instant, the Donghu people in the car formation broke up and escaped in embarrassment

Gao Yuan, who was chasing after him, looked at the battlefield for a while, and with a whistling sound, he rode his horse straight to where He Lanyan was fighting fiercely on the left. Behind him, the cavalry led by the infantry caught up closely, while the hundred soldiers who had not mounted their horses were still on the battlefield. In the formation of chariots, using the billowing smoke and the blocking of the carts, they killed the Donghu cavalry who had no time to escape.

The Donghu cavalry who fought fiercely with He Lanyan was already at a disadvantage. The addition of Gao Yuan, a fierce tiger, immediately became the last straw that broke the camel's camel's back. The dumplings are usually planted from the horse, and the survivors see that the situation is not good, so they pull the horse and run away

Gao Yuan and He Lanyan joined forces together, ignoring the cavalry fleeing after Arenda, the two groups joined together, turned their heads and rushed towards the battlefield where Zhang Dongsheng and Huang Zhan were on the other side

By this time, the battle had turned into one-sided. The Donghu cavalry, who had suffered heavy losses, followed Arenda and fled in embarrassment, but the hundred cavalry who were fighting fiercely with Zhang Dongsheng and others were not so lucky. Gao Yuan and He Lanyan were cut off, and the remaining dozens of cavalry were surrounded by groups, with no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth

These Donghu cavalry were lucky, facing a desperate situation, but their fighting spirit was aroused, Hu Hu shouted and rushed towards Gao Yuan and his party, Gao Yuan naturally had no intention of capturing prisoners. With a cry, the troops rushed forward

The result is self-evident, after the Zhuxiang Kung Fu, all the Donghu cavalry fell on the battlefield

This was the first face-to-face battle between Gao Yuan and the Donghu elite cavalry in a real sense. In the past six months, although several small Donghu tribes had been wiped out. But Gao Yuan knew very well that those battles were either cleverly arranged in advance to fight more and less, or they were surprise attacks, and he didn't give his opponent much time to prepare. Today's battle. Although I have made full preparations and set countless small traps for my opponents, the final decisive battle can still be said to be thrilling. Just look at my team right now. He Lanyan killed more than 20 people in the first battle , and almost all the rest were wounded, these Xiongnu cavalry were not inferior to these elite Donghu cavalry. On my own side, I took advantage of the position, and more than 30 cavalrymen under the infantry still fell down. In addition, more than 20 soldiers who did not mount their horses and were killed in the formation died, and 250 soldiers from Fufeng died. Cavalry, less than half of this battle has gone. Zhang Dongsheng and Huang Zhan led nearly 400 cavalry, and only 100 Donghu Wangting cavalry fought with them. But at this time, the casualty statistics came up, and both Zhang Huang and Zhang Huang were distressed to death. They fought more and less, and in the end it was Gao Yuan and He Lanyan who joined forces to win a complete victory. , but his losses were higher than those of his opponents.

One hundred and five cavalry were killed on the spot, and the wounded were not counted

Looking at Gao Yuan and He Lanyan, Zhang Dongsheng and Huang Zhan finally figured out the difference in strength between the two sides this time, even though they were both cavalry. But He Lanyan's side was one hundred against one hundred. Although Gao Yuan's side used countless traps, he used two hundred people to face the violent attack of nearly five hundred people in Arenda. Both directions were fighting. Victory, but only on his own side, with more fights and less, he still hasn't firmly defeated his opponent, which makes the two of them extremely ashamed

He Lanyan's face was covered with blood, but she didn't bother to wipe it off. Instead, she smiled like a flower and looked at Gao Yuan, "Gao Yuan, the cavalry I trained for you is not bad, right? I didn't embarrass you!"

"Of course, who is Yanzi, the cavalry you have trained is naturally the best in the world!" Gao Yuan laughed and praised He Lanyan, making her even more overjoyed

Gao Yuan turned his head and looked at the infantry, "The bodies of the brothers who died in battle can't be brought back, so they should be burned on the spot, and the ashes should be taken back. We have to leave here quickly."

"Yes, county lieutenant, the brothers are doing it!" The infantry nodded, and the Fufeng soldiers were carrying the remains of their comrades into the grain carts that were still burning, watching the fire engulfing the brothers' remains bit by bit. These hard-bodied men finally couldn't help but shed tears

Yesterday, the brothers who were still belching, farting, and talking nonsense together, but today it is forever, and there will be no day to see each other again, why not make people sad

There is no time to clean up the battlefield. For Gao Yuan, the only thing that is useful is some horses that were lost on the battlefield. Enough war horses to wrap up, when it can buy him more time

What Gao Yuan needs now is time. After defeating Arenda, it must have hurt Thorpe. Gao Yuan does not believe that Thorpe will stay in Yulin City. For food troops, it is a deadly threat

"Rest for half an hour!" Gao Yuan jumped off his horse. Although this battle did not take long, only about an hour before and after, the physical consumption was huge, especially when facing the elite Donghu Royal Court for the first time. Cavalry, soldiers also need time to digest this victory

What Gao Yuan didn't know was that he had no time to rest at all, because Arenda had sent a message to Thorpe before going into battle, and Thorpe was not the kind of conservative person. After getting the news, he first Time brought Yulin's main force out, and he wanted to swallow this enemy in one go.

At this time, Thorpe was less than twenty miles away from this battlefield. This means that Arenda lost too quickly. If Arenda was more careful, or persisted for a longer time, Gao Yuan would not have time to escape at all. battlefield, but will be bitten by Thorpe

Twenty miles away, Thorpe watched Arenda, whose face was covered in blood, fall headlong in front of him, his face was extremely ugly. Arenda was a hero under his command, and he sent Arenda to lead thousands of royal courts. Elite, unexpectedly defeated so quickly

"Speed ​​forward, I'm going to peel and cramp these thieves one by one!" When he said these words through his teeth, the generals around Thorpe knew that the usually gentle third prince was really angry

The two thousand royal cavalry were like a black whirlwind, rushing towards Gao Yuan's direction

He Lanyan had just washed off the blood on her face and sued her on her war horse. She was holding a piece of dry beef jerky in her hand and tore it vigorously. While chewing, she looked comfortably at Gao Yuan not far away. Among the soldiers, a mouthful of meat, a mouthful of wine, and laughing loudly with the soldiers from time to time. What He Lanyan didn't expect was that Gao Yuan could speak a little Hun language. The Xiongnu language that wants to laugh, talking and laughing loudly with his subordinates, but also made He Lanyan admire, Gao Yuan is really a caring person, just this way, he and his subordinates have become one with each other without any barriers

He Lanyan glanced up at the sky inadvertently, but He Lanyan's expression suddenly changed. An eagle was hovering above her head, and would dive down for a while before flapping its wings, but it always hovered above their heads and refused to leave

This is not a painful eagle, He Lanyan yelled, "Gao Yuan, come quickly!"

Hearing He Lanyan's call, Gao Yuan strode to her side, looked at her pale face, "What's the matter, Yanzi? Are you not feeling well? Or are you too tired?"

He Lanyan stared at the eagle in the sky, "Gao Yuan, look, that eagle!"

"What's so strange about eagles? We've seen a lot of them along the way?" Gao Yuan didn't care.

"This one is different. It's a falcon. Ordinary hawks won't dive and fly low when they see such a dense crowd below, but this one has just flown down several times. This is A trained falcon, the leaders of some big tribes of our Xiongnu also have this thing, it is specially used to scout the enemy's situation." He Lanyan whispered

Gao Yuan's expression changed immediately, "You mean?"

"The enemy's main force is not far from here!" He Lanyan gritted her teeth and said, "Our previous calculation was wrong. Thorpe came out with Arenda and they have already discovered where we are."

Gao Yuan threw away the beef in his hand at once, turned around, and shouted loudly: "Everyone, get on your horse, get on your horse, and get ready to leave, the enemy's large army is coming!"

With a rumbling sound from the team, all the soldiers stood up and ran towards their horses. After a while, the remaining 500 or so cavalry had assembled. Following Gao Yuan's order, the cavalry took the captured horses and galloped into the distance. and go

They had just left, and on the distant horizon, a large group of Donghu cavalry had already appeared. After half a stick of incense, Thorpe appeared on the battlefield just now. Beside him was a man with his head wrapped like a rice dumpling. Renda

"They haven't gone far yet!" A Donghu general looked up at the eagle in the sky, "Just left!"

"Chasing!" Thorpe yelled angrily, "I'm going to catch them!"

Gao Yuan knew that it was troublesome. The Donghu cavalry behind him were like maggots attached to the bones, biting his tail tightly. Yulin, and then went to attack Yulin, but now it is better, being driven farther and farther away from Yulin by Thorpe
