The haze obscured the sky, and the wisps of sunlight struggled to penetrate through the thick clouds, and the heavy clouds were reflected in patches of silver bright spots.

Cao Ren, who led his soldiers to rest in the village for a night, stood at the entrance of the village, looked up at the sky, waved behind him, and shouted to the 1,500 Cao Jun who pretended to be horse thieves behind him: "Go!" ”

Giving orders to the soldiers disguised as horse thieves, Cao Ren took the lead and gently pinched his legs on the horse's belly, and rode out of the village.

Fifteen hundred Cao Jun, disguised as horse thieves, followed closely behind Cao Ren and rode their horses in the direction of Baibo Valley.

Not long after the Cao army led by Cao Ren left, the villagers who were locked up in the village by them walked out of their houses one after another.

When Cao's army left, soldiers opened the houses where the villagers were being held.

However, since Cao Jun had not yet left, the villagers did not dare to leave the house immediately, until they heard the sound of horses' hooves and moved away from the village, and then they walked out of the two houses where they were being held.

"Quick, report to the government, and say that the horse thief has already come!" All the villagers ran to the entrance of the village, looking at Cao Jun in the distance, who only had the remnants of his back, and an elder in the village shouted to the young men.

A few men answered, and hurriedly ran out of the village and towards the nearest city.

After leading the 1,500 Qin army and leaving the village, Cao Ren did not pause for a moment and ran all the way towards Baibo Valley.

Seeing that it was only five or six miles away from Baibo Valley, Cao Ren reined in his war horse and ordered behind him: "Investigate the enemy's situation!" ”

A Cao Jun replied and rode forward.

The Cao army, which was following behind Cao Ren, quickly lined up after stopping its advance.

From the neat array they had lined up, no matter who they were, it could be seen that this team was by no means an ordinary horse thief, but a well-trained army.

Wearing tattered horse thief clothes, Cao Jun's formation was very neat.

The round shield held by the soldiers was not the standard equipment of Cao Jun, but the cavalry shield that he picked up from Yuan Jun before setting off.

The purpose of using this shield was only one, to make it impossible for the Qin army to recognize where they belonged.

Leading 1,500 cavalry, stationed on horseback and looking in the direction of Baibo Valley, Cao Ren quietly waited for the soldiers who had gone to investigate the situation to turn back.

Cao Ren didn't know that when he sent his soldiers to investigate the situation of Yu Linwei, not far from his garrison, several war horses were standing in the distance.

Riding on these fast horses were several Feather Forest Guards wearing big red armor and red feathers on their helmets fluttering in the wind.

The place where they were was not very far from the Cao army led by Cao Ren, they could clearly see the array of the Cao army.

Because they were so few in number, it was not easy for Cao Jun to spot them.

After watching Cao Jun for a while, these Yulin guards turned around their horses, gently clamped their legs towards the horse's belly, and rode their horses in the direction of Baibo Valley.

Stopping the march and sending scouts, Cao Ren led the army to wait on horseback.

However, it was only half an hour, and the scouts sent out turned back, rode their horses and rushed to Cao Ren, clasped their fists and said to him: "General Qiyu, the Qin army did not attack the valley, but only stationed outside the valley, as if to trap our army in the valley!" ”

"How many are there?" Hearing the scout's report, Cao Ren hurriedly asked.

"About three or four thousand!" The scout bowed with his fists and answered Cao Ren's question.

"Three or four thousand?" His brows furrowed slightly, and Cao Ren muttered in his heart, Qin Jun Yu Lin Wei had the largest number of people among the three guards, with five thousand people, but now the scout returned only three or four thousand people, which really made Cao Ren feel a little bad.

"Did you find anything unusual?" Feeling that something was not good, Cao Ren hurriedly asked the soldier.

"It's nothing out of the ordinary!" Clenching his fists and sitting on horseback, the soldier responded to Cao Ren.

His brows were tightly twisted, and he looked around, Cao Ren didn't notice anything abnormal, waved behind him, and shouted: "Let's go!" ”

Fifteen hundred Cao troops, under Cao Ren's order, shook off the reins, rode their horses after him, and rushed towards the place where Yu Linwei was stationed.

The Cao army led by Cao Ren quickly advanced towards Yulinwei, and at the same time, a cavalry of more than 1,000 people also made a big circle from the side, avoiding the eyes and ears of Cao Jun, and went around the back of Cao Jun under Cao Ren.

At the mouth of the Baibo Valley, Gao Shun, who led the Yulin Guards in a neat formation, looked up at the overcast sky, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Yu Linwei, who was monitoring the vicinity, had already sent back the news that another horse thief had appeared nearby.

The deployment had been made the night before, Gao Shun and others, but the horse thieves behind him were killed, and Yu Lin Wei could completely annihilate the two horse thieves in front of him in one fell swoop.

Cao Hong, who led the army stationed in the valley, got up early in the morning.

Riding his horse to a place not far from the mouth of the valley, he looked at the array of Qin Junyu Linwei from a distance.

Looking from a distance in the valley, the formation set up by the Qin army and the forest guards blocked the mouth of the valley to death, and there was no end in sight.

The war horses ridden by the soldiers of the Yulin Guards were all northern horses of excellent breeds.

The horses stood in array, the wind swept through the array of Yulinwei, and the bright red feathers on the helmets of the soldiers were like a ball of flames jumping and shaking, so that Cao Hong, who was an enemy, couldn't help but have a feeling from the bottom of his heart that he was about to be swallowed by the flames.

Just as he was looking at the array of Qin Jun's feather forest guards outside the valley, Cao Ren heard the sound of horses' hooves that seemed to be roaring from the side.

The sound of horses' hooves was very ethereal at first, but later, the sound of hooves became clearer and clearer, and from the roaring sound of horses' hooves, Cao Ren could hear that it should be one or two thousand fast horses running towards Qin Jun Yulinwei.

"Pass the order, the whole army is ready, and it is about to break through!" Hearing that there were one or two thousand fast horses running towards the Yulin Guard array, Cao Hong hurriedly shouted to a few of his own soldiers behind him.

When a personal soldier heard Cao Hong's shout, he hurriedly turned his horse around and ran towards the soldiers of the Cao army stationed in the depths of the valley.

After the soldiers left, it was only a small half cup of tea, and Cao Hong in the valley saw that the array of the Qin army's Yu Lin Guards was in chaos, and many Yu Lin Guards turned their horses' heads and rushed in the direction where the sound of hooves came.

Seeing this scene, Cao Hong knew in his heart that his guess was right, it was the team led by Cao Ren outside the valley who was rushing towards Yu Linwei.

The only thing that made Cao Hong feel a little entangled was not that the team led by Cao Ren failed to completely disperse Yu Linwei, but that he couldn't see how many troops and horses Yu Linwei had deployed to meet the enemy.

The pro-soldiers who turned their horses and ran to the depths of the valley to convey Cao Hong's orders soon gathered all Cao troops under Cao Hong's command.

Fifteen hundred Cao troops, if deployed in the wilderness, are simply a force so small that they can almost be ignored by the army.

But in the valley, such an army still seems a little crowded.

"General Cao Ren has already led the army to come to the rescue, I'll wait to kill it!" When the soldiers arrived behind him, Cao Hong raised his arm and shouted.

Surrounded by Yu Linwei in the valley, the 1,500 Cao troops under Cao Hong's command were already depressed, although they had a deep fear of the Qin army Yu Linwei, but they all wanted to be able to rush out and get rid of Yu Linwei's encirclement.

Hearing Cao Hong shouting that Cao Ren led the army to come to help, the Yulin guards in the valley raised their swords in unison, launched a shout, followed Cao Hong, and rushed towards the Qin army Yulinwei outside the valley.

Outside the Baibo Valley, the soldiers of the Cao army led by Cao Ren had already killed the flank of Yu Linwei.

Before they could rush to the front of the formation, Gao Shun had already raised his arm and issued an order to flank the attack.

More than 1,000 Yulin guards on the flanks, seeing Gao Shun's order, turned their horses around and faced the soldiers under Cao Ren's command who were riding their horses towards them.

When Cao Ren's Cao army charged, the horse's hooves stepped on the wilderness where the rain had not yet fallen, raising a thick cloud of smoke and dust.

The billowing smoke and dust made the charging Cao Jun look murderous and fierce.

The Cao army was getting closer and closer, and when the charging Cao army approached the Liyu Lin Guard array only a hundred steps, more than 1,000 Yulin guards who had already turned their horses' heads had their legs between their horses' bellies, shaking the reins, and greeted the Cao army led by Cao Ren.

Led 1,500 Cao troops, and when he saw the Yulin Guard array, Cao Ren gave the order to charge.

was about to rush in front of the Yulinwei array, and Cao Jun's collision force had reached its peak.

The Yulin guards, who were riding their horses to meet the Cao army's charge, did not immediately lift their swords, but took off their crossbows from their backs one after another, and shot a puff of feather arrows at Cao Jun, who was pretending to be a horse thief.

A puff of arrows flew towards the charging Cao army, and the Cao army who rushed to the front was caught off guard and was hit by the arrow.

The rapidly charging war horse was shot by the arrow shot by Yu Linwei, rolled and fell forward, and Cao Jun on horseback also flipped his body in mid-air and fell heavily to the ground.

Some Cao Jun didn't fall right when he fell, and it happened that his head hit the ground, and he was immediately hit and his brain was cracked.

There were also some Cao Jun, when they fell to the ground, although their heads did not hit the ground first, and they did not fall to death on the spot, but Tong Ze, who followed behind, stepped on them one after another under the hooves of the war horses.

Yu Linwei shot arrows, and after the charging Cao soldiers were knocked over, the Cao army behind hurriedly raised the round shield in his hand to block the oncoming feather arrows.

The rapid mobility of the cavalry is indeed a great threat to the long-range troops, but when the distance between the two sides is quite long, the defense ability of the cavalry is weak and pitiful.

The Yulin guards in the charge continuously buckled the machine spring and shot the Cao cavalry into pieces, until the distance between the two sides was only thirty or forty paces, and then they turned their strong crossbows back behind them, drew out their swords and carried their shields, shouted, and accelerated their horses to rush towards the enemy.

When the two rapidly charging cavalry collided with each other, many of the strong horses were smashed into their skulls or neck bones under the tremendous force of the collision with each other, and their strong bodies were crooked and fell on the battlefield.
