Chapter 91: You Turn Left, I Turn Right
The two of them lay down in the grass silently, and the relaxed soldiers returned to the hiding place in groups. From the outside, it looked like there was nothing unusual about this hill, but in fact, one hundred and fifty The murderous and heavily armed soldiers are hiding here, like a cheetah staring at its prey, patiently waiting for their opportunity.
Gao Yuan turned his head slightly to look at He Lanyan, but unexpectedly found that He Lanyan was also watching him secretly. Seeing Gao Yuan's eyes sweeping over, He Lanyan turned his head like lightning as if he had been stung by a bee. Looking at the other party's flushed face Face, Gao Yuan secretly smiled in his heart, this daughter who looks bold and generous is actually thin-skinned.
Gao Yuan's heart tightened when there was a crackling sound on a poplar tree behind him, and when he looked back, the soldier lying on the tree watching had already rushed towards him in one swift motion.
"Bingcao, here we come, here we come!" The soldier leaped forward, and Pu fell to Gao Yuan's side, "There are so many war horses, overwhelming the sky and covering the earth."
He Lanyan was startled, "How many are there?"
Gao Yuan waved his hand at her. The soldiers of his family had never seen large-scale cavalry at all. Hundreds of cavalry were spread out, indeed occupying a huge area. Unlike infantry, four hundred people gathered together were not impressive at all. .
"Little Yanzi!" he shouted in a low voice.
The two sides of the withered grass parted, and Yan Haibo suddenly appeared in front of Gao Yuan.
"Notify all brothers, be careful, don't let the opponent find out that something is wrong, this is related to everyone's life, and it must not be ignored!"
"Forget it, Bing Cao!" Yan Haibo turned around and disappeared into the grass.
Through the gaps between the grass, a black line appeared in the line of sight, and the ground began to tremble slightly. As the black line gradually advanced, the hills and ridges were already clearly visible, and countless cavalry were rolling like waves. Quickly advance in this direction, as the soldier said, overwhelming.
Gao Yuan's eyes widened, and his heart trembled unavoidably. In fact, there were only four hundred horsemen and horses, but they were spread out and galloped. The shock was greater than that of one or two thousand infantrymen. In the battles between Yan and the Donghu people, there are always fewer victories and more losses. Dayan, which is mainly infantry, faces such a hustling army. I am afraid that most of the soldiers will be timid before fighting.
Gao Yuan heard the heavy breathing on the hills, and his soldiers really became nervous.
"Miss Yan, if you face her head-on, what are your chances of winning?" Gao Yuan asked He Lanyan in a low voice.
"We have few people, and we can barely produce more than two hundred cavalry. If we confront them head-on, we will definitely lose. But in a fight, to be honest, there is no certainty of victory, so let's go fifty-fifty!" He Lanyan said.
"All Donghu soldiers have this level?" Gao Yuan's heart became a little heavy.
"Almost!" He Lanyan said with a wry smile: "King Donghu can gather as many as 100,000 elites as soon as he ascends the heights. Otherwise, all the tribes of our Huns have been suppressed to death all these years, and they have always been subject to their control." Bullying? Fortunately, their own internal struggles are also very fierce. Except for the high prestige of Donghu King, other major tribes have constant conflicts and fights. If they were united, our Xiongnu tribe would have been wiped out by them long ago. They can't do anything to your city, but to us who are also nomads, they are the biggest and most dangerous enemy."
"As long as it is not monolithic, there is always a way!" Gao Yuan nodded thoughtfully, looking at the Hutu cavalry that was approaching rapidly. Wasn't this a large army of thousands of cavalry before, but now it has been reduced to So, otherwise, how could I have this opportunity.
Seeing behind the cavalrymen, there were actually many old and weak people closely following in their carriages, Gao Yuan couldn't help but sneered, "Sure enough, they are going to prepare to make a fortune, even the carts to tow the stolen goods are ready, but I'm afraid you will be disappointed this time, if you go, you don't have to come back."
La Trobe was indeed planning to make a fortune. This time he was not going to plunder the village, but to take down Fufeng City. Unlike the village, Fufeng City gathered almost all the rich people in the entire Fufeng County. Unlike looting, Fufeng City has never been harassed by Donghu people, and the wealth gathered inside must be an astonishing number.
If it wasn't for Huo Zhu's promise to act as an internal response, La Trobe would not have such a daydream. As a border county, Fufeng City is the first line to resist the Donghu people. The city is more than ten meters high, and Fufeng people are aggressive. Thousands of villages can be gathered to bravely go to the city to defend the city. If no one opens the city gate, he can't take it down at all.
But now, everything is in sight. It is said that the Donghu people fight fiercely, but compared with these Dayan people, they are more cunning. The Donghu people fight each other with the knives in their hands. It makes sense, but these Dayan people kill people without blood. I'm afraid that after Wu Kai, Lu Hong, and Gao Yuan died, they still can't figure out what went wrong.
Thinking of this, La Trobe couldn't help but smile, he couldn't help but pay a great price for huge gains, he liked this kind of war very much, because he really couldn't bear big losses now.
More than 400 cavalry and hundreds of carts flew past not far from the place where Gaoyuan was hiding. La Trobe never expected that Gaoyuan would dare to stay away from Juliguan and choose to ambush here. In the history of confrontation with the Dayan people, it has never happened before. If the Dayan people decide to fight a regular war with the Donghu people, they will always gather several times more people than the Donghu people on the opposite side. , and according to Huo Zhu's information, there are only more than 300 people in Juliguan, and there are only 500 regular soldiers in Fufeng. With this manpower, it is impossible to confront him head-on. In La Trobe's mind, Gao Yuan would definitely shrink back in Juliguan, watching him helplessly go straight to Fufeng.
"They passed by, shouldn't it be time for us to act?" He Lanyan asked impatiently as the Donghu cavalry disappeared from sight.
Gao Yuan shook his head, "It's not possible now, we won't be able to do anything until they pass Juliguan and go deep into Fufeng territory, and they can't turn back in time. Now, we can only stay here, Miss Yan, the opponent is cavalry, if It won't take long for them to get the news and come back."
"Then how long do we have to wait?"
"After today!" Gao Yuan looked up at the sky.
"Wouldn't it be better to stay here for another day?"
"Yes, it will take at least one day for the Hutu cavalry to go deep into Fufeng from here. When they start to plunder Fufeng, that's when we attack his camp, and then let him get the news, that's another day, he It will take half a day to come back, even if we speed up the horse and don’t spare the horsepower, with the past two days of practice, it is enough for us to set countless traps for him, so that he can have a good surprise when he returns to the old camp." Gao Yuan shook his head and said.
The Hutu cavalry had gone far away, but Gao Yuan and his men did not let down their vigilance, and still carefully concealed their whereabouts.
Sun Xiao stood at the gate of the Curie, watching the smoke and dust caused by the galloping cavalry getting closer and closer, the enemy came so fast.
"Light up the smoke and warn Fufeng City!" Sun Xiao ordered.
A puff of thick black smoke swirled straight up to the night, and more than 150 soldiers stood at Curie Gate, on the wall of the gate, preparing all kinds of defensive weapons for the enemy to attack the city. Although the Hutus attacked Curie The possibility of closing is not great, but it cannot be said that there is no possibility at all. It is always harmless to be fully prepared.
Latobelle stopped the horse and stared at Juliguan. In the past few months, Juliguan has changed a little. Since Gao Yuan took office, it is not an exaggeration to describe Juliguan as a change of heaven and earth. He did not Having seen Gao Yuan, now Sun Xiao is standing on the wall, commanding the soldiers, making him mistakenly think that Sun Xiao is the target he wants to kill.
"This man is a talent, but to the people of Yan, he is a talent, but to us, he is a disaster!" Latobe turned to look at Nafu next to him, "Look, he has been in office for four months, and the Curieguan What did it look like? When we fought here last year, it was dilapidated, but now, it looks like a dangerous city. The sooner such a person is killed, the better! Otherwise, after he gains power, , our days will be hard."
"He doesn't leave the pass, what can we do?" Nafu looked at Juli Pass, gritted his teeth, "Patriarch, we can't pass this pass."
"I hope that Huo Zhu is right. When we break through Fufeng City, Gao Yuan will come out with his troops, and we can kill him in the field!" Latrobe said.
"What if we break Fufeng City and he still doesn't come out?" Nafu asked worriedly.
La Trobe laughed, "First, if we take down Fufeng City, then our biggest goal has been achieved. We can harvest countless goods and plunder countless people. In other words, it is not that urgent. Second, after we have broken through Fufeng City and won a complete victory, maybe there is no need for us to clean up the guard of Curie who can't hide. There are people behind Huo Zhu. Is there any reason not to use this reason to take Gao Yuan down, a single fear of the enemy is enough to send him to the killing field."
"The patriarch is clever!" Nafu laughed. "Huo Zhu thought very well, but he didn't want you to only want the wealth and population of Fufeng City. As long as Fufeng City is broken, you can kill the three people he wants. What's the relationship? Could it be that he still dares to go to our place to challenge him, even King Donghu won't talk to him!"
La Trobe laughed loudly, "Nafu, send dozens of people to Juliguan to harass, to show our existence, and let them see the majesty of Donghu Erlang!" He laughed and broke his horse and left.
