767 vultures

In the dark night, the roaring sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and countless fierce and vicious cavalry rushed to the rebel camp from all directions, holding cold and shining blades, frantically harvesting the heads of the rebels, in addition, they also threw torches into the camp from time to time, and for a time the rebel camp was full of fire, and the screams were endless.

Zhang Yuan led a hundred elite cavalry, taking the lead, charging at the forefront, raising the spear in his hand, killing people when he saw them, never soft, his face and body were covered with thick blood, in the dim firelight, at first glance, like a bloody man.

The rebels suddenly encountered a sneak attack, and it was still at night, there was no time to resist, and the battle was broken, and the rebels fled for their lives, and no one went to meet the enemy at all, but they knew that there were enemy troops in all directions, but they didn't know how many people came.

Meng You and Vulture were the first to get the news, and as the leaders of the entire army, they did not immediately organize a large army to resist, but took the lead in gathering troops and fleeing the barracks, leaving tens of thousands of troops behind, not caring about their lives or deaths.

It's no wonder that the original task of Meng You and Vulture was to lure the enemy, and the army that Meng Yu gave him was also a rabble, which was not vulnerable at all, even if he resisted, it would be useless at all.

Meng You once fought with the Han army, and the combat effectiveness of the Han army Meng You was clear, so when he heard that the Han army was coming, the whole person was like a frightened bird, under the protection of five hundred barbarians such as the vulture bones, he quickly evacuated the battlefield, crossed the river by boat, and arrived on the other side of the Fushui River.

When Meng You and Wu Tu Gu arrived on the other side of the Fushui River, they turned around and saw the flames in the military camp on the other bank. The rebels who came with them were not killed by the Han army. It was burned to death by fire. Either they were drowned in the Fushui River while fleeing for their lives, in short, the 50,000-strong army had collapsed, and the screams were even louder.

"Let's go quickly, if it's too late, the Han army will catch up!" After seeing such a tragic situation, Meng You immediately turned his head and said to the vulture bone beside him.

The vultures saw those who were still struggling in the water, and they were about to reach the shore. He sighed heavily, shook his head helplessly, turned around and followed Meng You away.

Zhang Yuan took a hundred cavalry to and fro in the rebels' barracks, and by the time he came to the Chinese army's tent, Meng You, Wutugu and others had already gone to the empty building, leaving only a mess.

Although he didn't catch Meng You and the vulture bones, this time he broke through the rebels' 50,000 army with 2,000 cavalry, which was also a great credit, and he regained his spirits. Start directing your subordinates to clean up the battlefield.

Although the Han army was unstoppable, it was small in number after all. The 50,000 army was attacked by the Han army, and the rebels were all like frightened birds, scrambling to flee, Zhang Yuan and others could only watch them flee, but they couldn't do anything, they only hated that they had too few people, and they couldn't take advantage of this time to catch more prisoners and ask Zhang Liao for credit.

At this moment, the 10,000 infantry led by Wen Ping suddenly arrived, lined up on the shore, blocked some of the rebels who wanted to escape, and captured all the rebels with lightning speed.

In just half an hour, the battle was over, the Han army killed a total of 3,867 rebels, captured more than 11,600 people, burned more than 1,000 people, and drowned but did not count, it is estimated that there were more than 2,000 people, the rest scattered and fled, unable to catch up, while the Han army did not have a single casualty.

When Zhang Yuan saw Wen Ping leading the army here, his brows furrowed, he never thought that Wen Ping would appear here, and more than 10,000 rebels were captured by Wen Ping, isn't it obvious that they are here to grab credit from him!

Zhang Yuan was very unhappy in his heart, raised his head and saw that the rebels who had crossed the Fushui River had not gone far, so he rode a horse, gathered his subordinates, and without even saying hello to Wen Ping, he took them across the river to the other side, wanting to take advantage of the victory to pursue, capture Meng You and the vulture bones, and make a great contribution.

Groups of cavalry got on the ferry, and crossed to the other side of the Fushui River, at this time Wen Ping was counting the battlefield, when he learned the news, it was too late, Zhang Yuan with two thousand cavalry had already killed the opposite bank, chasing the rebels.

"It's broken!" Wen Ping shouted, leaving 5,000 soldiers and horses to clean up the battlefield and guard the prisoners, while he led 5,000 men across the Fushui River and chased Zhang Yuan.

Wen Ping came to assist Zhang Yuan on Zhang Liao's order, but Zhang Yuan mistakenly thought that Wen Ping came to grab the merit, and Zhang Yuan, who was carried away by the victory, made a bold decision, he wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue until he caught Meng You and the vultures.

Meng You and Wu Tugu fled for more than ten miles with five hundred brute soldiers, and then stopped, preparing to rest here for a while, and sent people to the shore to inquire about the news, and if they encountered scattered soldiers, let them gather here.

"It should be safe here, the Han army shouldn't chase after it, right?" Meng You let out a sigh of relief, and galloped all the way, although he was riding a war horse, but the nervous feeling made him unable to breathe, and only then did he really breathe a sigh of relief, and said to the vulture bone beside him.

Wu Tu Gu said: "Even if the Han army chases after us, we don't need to be afraid, I have five hundred rattan armor soldiers, which is enough to ensure the safety of the three generals, and I will kill as many people as the Han army comes!" ”

"Second brother said let's lure the enemy deeper, if we fight back, the Han army won't follow again, right?" Meng You said worriedly, "If the Han army chases after us, we will leave ......."

"Three generals!" The vulture bone directly interrupted Meng You's words and said, "If we blindly lose and flee, the Han army will definitely be suspicious, if we give the Han army a dismount, maybe the Han army will not be suspicious, and we give the Han army hatred, so that we can really lure the Han army." ”

Meng You said: "But ......"

"There is nothing to do, the three generals, don't worry, I will protect the safety of the three generals." The vulture didn't want to be a deserter anymore, so he said bluntly.

Meng You didn't say anything more, he was surrounded by soldiers from the vulture bones, they all obeyed the words of the vulture bones, as long as the vulture bones didn't say anything and left, they wouldn't listen to their own words.

After a while, the people sent by Meng You came back, and they came back with him, and there were thousands of defeated troops, all of them were very nervous one by one, running forward desperately, and when they saw the vulture bones lined up in the middle of the road, it was like grabbing a life-saving straw, and they were very excited.

The people who came back made it clear to Meng You that the Han army had crossed the Fushui River and chased after them, and was killing the rebels in the back, which was less than three miles away from here.

As soon as Meng You heard this, he felt that his scalp was numb, and he glanced at the vulture bone, but saw that the vulture bone looked calm and calm, and a cold light burst out in his eyes, as if he was ready for battle.

Suddenly, the vulture turned to the two vine armor soldiers behind him and said, "You two, protect the three generals and retreat first, and the rest of the people will all stay here and wait for my dispatch!" ”

"Whoa!"

With the order of the vulture bone, the two vine armor soldiers came to Meng You's side and said in unison: "Three generals, let's go!" ”

Meng You didn't say anything, turned over and jumped on horseback, rode his war horse, and left here with the two vine armor soldiers, while those who retreated from the battlefield in front of them all shuttled through the center of a road that the vine armor soldiers had left behind.

The place where the vulture bone is located is a relatively narrow junction, flanked by rolling hills, on which large areas of woods grow, which is the only way to the Ailao Mountain, and is also the watershed between the plains and the mountains.

The vine armor soldiers lined up neatly on this road, and groups of defeated rebels passed by them, one after another, about 20,000 people.

Then not much time passed, there were bursts of horses' hooves in the distance, and the screams one after another, those slow runners of the rebel soldiers, were chased up by the Han cavalry behind, and were slaughtered at will, from the side of the Fushui River to here for more than ten miles, blood was sprinkled all the way, and the corpses were also covered all the way.

The vultures and the others waited here quietly, reflecting the cold moonlight, and they vaguely saw the Han cavalry on horseback, and when they saw one rebel soldier after another lying in a pool of blood, their hearts were full of anger.

Although there are many races in Nanzhong, there are in-laws between their various races, and the marriage between them for generations has integrated the large and small races here into an inseparable part. Although there are contradictions and conflicts between various races, they are all internal to the South and Central races, and they have their own internal solutions, but once they encounter the invasion of foreign enemies, they will abandon all contradictions, unite as one, and work together to deal with foreign enemies. It is precisely because of this that Meng Shu was able to gather such a large army in a short period of time.

It's just that the vulture bone has some opinions on Meng Huo's method of luring the enemy deeply, and he didn't suggest using this method to lure the enemy at the beginning, in his opinion, this is Meng Huo deliberately excluding dissidents, and letting these tens of thousands of Nanzhong people go to death.

It's a pity that Meng Huo never took the words of the vulture bone to heart and insisted on going his own way, and specially sent the vulture bone and Meng You to carry out this task together. If it weren't for Meng Huo's life-saving grace to the vulture, the vulture would have fallen out with Meng Huo a long time ago.

But since things have come to this point, in the eyes of the vulture bones, he is here this time to block the pace of the Han army, and he can save as many Nanzhong people as he can, in addition, he also wants to give the Han army a dismount, let them know that Nanzhong is not easy to mess with!

The Han army was approaching step by step, and instead of a trace of timidity, the vulture bone was extremely excited, even the vine armor soldiers under his command.

"Prepare for battle!" The vulture bone waved the iron thistle bone in his hand and shouted at the vine armor soldiers behind him. (To be continued.) )
