Chapter 106: The Battle Will Be Won

Yan Bei's breathing became deeper and deeper, and with the turbid air, he exhaled a pair of strong and powerful palms and trembled slightly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The group of soldiers and horses was getting closer and closer, and they were already on the verge of an ambush.

Two hundred steps.

Yan Bei lowered his body with a strong crossbow with a good arrow, and took a few steps forward, crouching under the huge branches of a clump of lilac trees.

One hundred and fifty steps.

The soldiers followed Yan Bei's movements, and those strong crossbows and undrawn bows with good arrows gave them great courage in the hands of the soldiers.

It's closer...... One hundred steps.

Yan Bei continued to take a few steps closer, and at this time, his subordinates were already less than three hundred steps close to the official road, and the big trees around him were getting fewer and fewer, and the vision of the ambush soldiers was getting wider and wider.

Fifty steps!

The Han army had entered the encirclement, but Yanbei's subordinates had not yet reached the best firing range.

Thirty steps!

Suddenly, Yan Bei, who was short forward, saw the generals on horses in the Han army array in the distance raise their arms, and the forest could hear the heralds asking them to stop their horses.

The Han army has found an ambush!

This provoked Yan Bei's eyes to widen suddenly, and he immediately rushed forward with a strong crossbow, and only one word burst out of his mouth in a hurry, "Rush!" ”

All of a sudden, with Yanbei's figure galloping quickly in the bushes, hundreds of soldiers with bows and crossbows behind him charged from the forest to the official road, and they shouted one after another, which was deafening.

The convulsion happened in an instant, Meng Yi really felt that the surroundings were quiet, so he was suspicious, so he ordered to stop the troops and garrison the horses, and just wanted to order the scouts to investigate the left and right, how did he know that before the military order was issued, a large number of hidden enemy troops appeared in the dense forest on the left!

In an instant, Yan Bei rushed out a hundred steps, leaned against a big tree suddenly, and raised his hand sideways to shoot out a crossbow...... The enemy ranks were quite dense, and in a hurry, the enemy generals did not have time to give orders, and the soldiers could only rely on instinct to stick to each other and draw their swords and look around, which gave the opportunity to the crossbowmen in the forest on both sides.

Yan Bei was on the left side of the official road, and suddenly attacked, as he shot out the crossbow arrows, more than a hundred arrows shot out, instantly knocking down dozens of Han troops on the official road.

The Han army shouted to stop the frightened horses, or hugged the head of the rat and scurried, or cried and fled for their lives...... It is rare that some people who can stay calm in the melee can only look for heavy vehicles to protect themselves, and as for those who can master the bow and crossbow and can fight back in the forest in a panic, it is only 12 out of 10.

Very few.

The composition of this army is too chaotic, the Han army listens to Meng Yi's orders, the Wencheng County soldiers listen to Tian Du, as for those heroic soldiers who have never experienced a real battle, let alone an ambush, at this moment they are in a mess and squeezing around on the official road, and two or three of the ten people are about to be defeated!

Just as the soldiers were waving their weapons and facing the left side of the official road, guarding against the uninterrupted flow of arrows in the forest, a chaotic shout of killing also broke out on the right side of the official road, and rows of dense arrows burst out, shooting from the back of the Han army's array in the blink of an eye!

The formation of the Han army was elongated, and the main force that could fight was only more than 600 steps, although there were still more than 400 steps behind the formation, but there were only a few hundred soldiers escorting heavy baggage, and those people were poorly armed and their morale was also low. Although the baggage team was not projected by arrows, at this time, seeing that the forward and the Chinese army were blocked, they did not have the slightest will to fight, and they were stunned for a while.

What's more, more than a dozen people abandoned their wooden spears at that time, and got under the car with their heads in their hands, or fled towards the road from which they came.

The array was too narrow and long, even Meng Yidu felt powerless, and the chaotic soldiers had blocked the way for the heralds to gallop back and forth, even he could only watch the soldiers being shot by the random arrows in the forest and could not reverse the situation, so he could only slap his horse and dance his sword while drinking to order more than 100 Han troops around him to form a formation to defend themselves, and use dozens of bows and crossbows to fight back against the woods on both sides with little effect.

Sou!

Yan Bei raised the crossbow again, and the arrow brought out a straight gray light of seventy steps in the air, accurately hitting a galloping horseman, the powerful crossbow arrow broke through the iron plate armor, and through the leather armor drilled into the chest cavity to shoot the horseman with the herald flag over, and the body fell sharply on the horse.

This was the fourth arrow fired by Yan Bei, and he shot the three herald cavalrymen who were struggling to gallop in the chaotic battle on their mounts.

Instead of relying on the chaos to make random moves, he focused all his attention on the heralds who were galloping back and forth, destroying the last chance of restoring order to the enemy.

In an instant, his subordinates had already sprinkled more than 5,000 arrows on the official road, most of the enemy troops had fallen, and the official road was full of corpses, and the enemy who was lucky enough to be able to stand was only nearly a thousand Han troops still resisting stubbornly, slowly converging towards Meng Yi's location.

At this time, Yan Bei could also recognize which one was Meng Yi...... All the Han troops moved towards the generals on horseback, so this general must be very important!

The Han army's crossbow counterattack became more and more organized, and there were even foot soldiers carrying large shields trying to cut off the firing line between the forest and the roadside, buying time for the Han army that wanted to retreat north. It's a pity that Yanbei's arrangement doomed their wishes to be disappointed.

As the battlefield expanded to the north, an army of hundreds of rebels was stamped at the end of the road, and two rows of five spears were erected behind a row of swords and shields to push the line south. And at the southern end of the road, the same sight and the terrible rebel array compressed the survival of the Han army in the same way.

Yan Bei's fingers were strangled by the strings of the three-stone strong crossbow, the three-stone strong crossbow was not the kind of step bow used to shoot continuously, and firing five arrows in a row made him feel tired from the waist.

Putting down the crossbow, Yan Bei took off the shield he was carrying behind him and grabbed it in his hand, pulled out the short knife at his waist and turned sideways behind the tree to avoid the stray arrows that shot from him, carefully observing the situation on the battlefield. Several guards of the Xiaoya Army behind him, whose armor was different from ordinary people, saw Yan Bei put down the strong crossbow, and they also took off their swords, axes and shields, and guarded the trees next to Yan Bei, lest they be injured by mistake.

This ambush was far easier than Yanbei imagined, although Meng Yi had many soldiers and horses, his orders were unknown, and the courage of his soldiers was uneven, and the battle had only been carried out for less than a moment, and it had already shown signs of defeat, only the hundreds of Han troops gathered around the general were still resisting.

As for those powerful soldiers, they were almost scattered at this time, and what was left was nothing more than a small group of battles, and they couldn't make the climate.

It's just that now there are hundreds of Han troops left to defend the baggage carts or horse corpses to return fire with bows and crossbows, and their own soldiers have projected more than 10 crossbows and more than 20 arrows to hold the bow.

Seeing this, Yan Bei met his subordinates with a color, jumped out with a sword, saw the arrows coming to his chest, and raised his shield to block and quickly ran out of the dense forest.

Swinging the knife and slashing horizontally, the armor and flesh at the beginning of the hand were level, and several Han soldiers were cut down in an instant, and the guards with iron armor and teeth behind him also raised their knives and spears, and the rest of the forest gave up the bow and crossbow and shouted out, the blood penetrated the placket, Yanbei shouted in the array, "Liaodong Yanbei is here, and those who descend will not be killed!" ”

At this time, the rebels on the right side of the official road also raised their swords to kill the generals, and shouted loudly according to Yanbei's words, "Those who descend will not be killed, and those who descend will not be killed!" ”

The rebel infantry of the north and south also pushed the spears with large shields to force the few remaining Han troops into the middle of the road, and the Han army saw that the general trend was gone, and the rest were also exhausted, they put down their swords one after another, and did not dare to resist the soldiers.

In an instant, the sword landed with the sound of ping-pong.

Meng Yi used his more than 10,000 Han troops to cross the Liaoshui to conquer Yanbei, and was completely defeated today.

The Han army threw their weapons one after another, knelt on the ground and begged to surrender, and their subordinates quickly guarded the side.

Yan Bei put the knife back into the sheath with the proud look of a warrior, raised his head slightly, looked up at the old general who was still sitting on horseback in the Han army's kneeling, rubbed his numb hands with a smile, and then pressed the knife and smiled: "The old general was defeated by Yan today, why don't you abandon the blade and get off the horse and be bound?" ”

Since Yanbei led his troops to rush out of the forest, Meng Yi knew that he had lost this battle...... The soldiers were killed and wounded and fled, and the rest were saved in ten steps, how to guard against Yanbei, which was like a tiger down the mountain?

It wasn't until he saw that these soldiers who followed him into Youzhou to quell the rebellion and pursued the 100,000 Wuhuan four counties thousands of miles away finally stopped obeying his orders and put down their blades and knelt down to beg for surrender, Meng Yi had already accepted his fate.

He had been observing the rebel leader, who was too young to speak. In the more than a year of crusade and rebellion, the name Yanbei went from being inconspicuous to famous, and he did not take the owner of this name to heart at that time.

Later, even after the defeat of Qingshi Bridge, Meng Yi still thought that it was just Yanbei taking the lead, and he could make a comeback.

But this time, he lost completely.

"Alas...... The old man was defeated by the hands of the child! ”

Meng Yi let out a long sigh, took a deep look at the high-spirited Yanbei, and suddenly his eyes glared angrily, and he lowered his head and grabbed the hilt of the sword to his waist, and wiped it from his neck with his backhand.

"Stop!"

As soon as Yan Bei saw Meng Yi glaring at him, he said that it was not good, and the short knife in his palm was unsheathed again, and before he could take precautions, he saw Meng Yi's Han sword towards him, and it was too late to stop it in a hurry, so he had to vigorously throw the ring knife upside down.

The two were only three steps apart, Yan Bei's ring knife was thrown at Meng Yi's wrist, and the heavy Han sword fell in response, Yan Bei was furious, raised his hand and raised two fingers to Meng Yi and scolded: "Drag him off the horse and tie him up tightly!" ”

When the subordinates heard the promise, they stepped forward to tie Meng Yi up with the torn linen cloth and tie it firmly, which was difficult to reassure Yanbei, so he pulled a rag and stepped forward, punched Meng Yi in the abdomen, and only taught the Han Dynasty veteran who was tied up with five flowers to retch.

Homeopathically, the dirty linen cloth blocked Meng Yi's mouth tightly, and Yanbei was relieved.

A pair of eagle eyes on his cold face looked at Meng Yi who was glaring angrily, and Yan Bei said in a cold voice: "The old man killed my soldier and injured my henchman, if Yan wants to kill you, you have to wait until now?" If it weren't for you and Gongsun Bogui blocking the road to come to crusade, Yan would have gone west to Liu Youzhou early on, and he would have carried a traitor here! ”

When Yanbei saw Meng Yi, he would think of Zhang Leigong, who was in a bloody coma, and at this time, he was even more angry when he saw that Meng Yi was about to break himself. Exhaled two deep breaths, then turned his head and shouted to the soldiers: "Collect the prisoner's weapons and escort them to Xiangping." The carts were unloaded and loaded with the bodies of the brothers and brought back to Xiangping for burial. ”

The subordinate asked, "General, do you want these burdens?" ”

"Why not!" Yan Beiyi waved his hand and greeted the herald cavalry: "Quickly send a message to Pan Ling, and ask him to lead his subordinates to find a way to clean up the war booty...... Let's go home! ”
