【Chapter 587】 The Heavenly Soldiers are brave and invincible
Three days ago, Yu Fu Luo sent an envoy to send a war letter, and the time and place of the invitation to fight were all set in advance by Yu Fuluo.
Zhou Yu did not hesitate to fight, but put forward a trivial condition, that is, to postpone the decisive battle from the hour to noon.
That's all.
The results speak for themselves.
Yu Fuluo readily agreed, and the barbarian army would not come to the valley until three o'clock today, and it would be the first quarter of noon when the formation was completed.
Because this place was the decisive battle site chosen by Yu Fuluo, the barbarian army had no fear and did not have to worry about the Han army deceiving or using intrigue to set up ambushes on both sides of the valley. The Green Wolf Valley is a relatively flat grassland within a radius of dozens of miles, and there is no natural danger at all, if the Han army pretends to be clever and tries to disperse the barbarian army's forces, divide and annihilate it, it is tantamount to asking for a dead end. Because the strength of the barbarian army is three times that of the Han army, even if the troops are divided to chase and kill, they are still more enemies and fewer enemies, and they will win the battle.
In addition, this grassland was originally the territory of the Tu tribes. Every grass and tree here is firmly remembered in the hearts of the warriors of the Tu tribes and the ten thousand iron horsemen under their tents, so it is simply whimsical and impossible for the Han army to use the terrain to win or set up an ambush in advance.
The reason why Yu Fuluo chose the decisive battle site in the valley was to reduce the damage to the grassland as much as possible at the request of the Luoluo, so that the Tu tribesmen could harvest the pasture grass for the winter. After all, this is the fertile grassland on which the Tu tribes depend, if they don't cherish it themselves, how can they expect the Han army to pity this grassland?
Therefore, at the beginning of the war, seeing the Han army retreat to the high ground on both sides of the valley, trying to avoid the edge, this made the originally demoralized barbarian army have a high fighting spirit, and the prancing horse swung its sword, speeding up more and more, and rushed to the south of the valley mouth to crush it.
They were not at all worried about the Han army using trickery. Because this is their territory, it is equivalent to their own doorstep.
Do you have to worry about being ambushed by the enemy when fighting on your own doorstep?
"Boom---"
Hundreds of thousands of war horses galloped across the country, trampling the entire Green Wolf Valley to groan, the earth trembled, the sound of horse trampling was earth-shattering, and the tremor could be clearly felt within a radius of 100 miles.
Three hundred steps away, not far, not close, normal people can clearly see the image is about this distance.
Zhou Yu of Le Ma Gukou squinted with a solemn face, measuring the speed of the barbarian army's advance and the sharply shortened distance between the two sides.
Two hundred steps. One hundred and fifty steps, one hundred and twenty steps, one hundred steps.
Suddenly, Zhou Yu moved. I saw him jerk the reins and clamp the horse's belly. The black-chested horse under its crotch suddenly moved, and rushed straight to the valley and high ground to the west as fast as lightning.
For most warhorses. The steep slopes on both sides are dozens of feet high, making it difficult to navigate. Can only climb steadily. But the black-fat horse under Zhou Yu's crotch lives up to the name of the horse, and the two whirls under the belly are not good-looking patterns, but veritable BMW horses, crossing mountains and rivers like walking on the ground. At this moment, the black-fat horse showed an ability far beyond that of an ordinary war horse, walking like a fly, and carrying Zhou Yu to the high ground in a moment. Then he snorted, stopped on the high ground, and looked down on the barbarian army below the mountain with his master.
At this time, the barbarian army was already approaching the valley mouth to the south. Thirty more steps will be able to rush to the position where the Han army is in the forefront. Suddenly, I saw Zhou Yu pull out his sword, look at Lu Su and Fa Zheng above the valley mouth on the opposite side, and shouted: "Beat the drum to help, and the fire bull array to attack!" ”
"Knock knock!" Immediately following Zhou Yu's order, high-pitched and passionate war drums suddenly sounded on the highlands on both sides of the valley, and the frequency of their drums was much faster than that of the barbarian army, which seemed urgent and urgent.
"Boom, boom, boom--" However, as a loud bang poured in from outside the mouth of the valley in the south, the sound of drums on the battlefield of the Blue Wolf Valley was eclipsed, and it was instantly drowned out by a huge rumbling sound.
Immediately, Dan saw a bull with red silk tied on its horns rushing into the valley mouth frantically, and then hundreds of bulls with red silk horns appeared in the condescending sight of the Han army. In an instant, more and more ploughing oxen with horns tied with red silk came like a flood of fierce beasts, rushing into the valley and then brazenly rushing into the front of the barbarians.
It was only at this time that the soldiers of the Han army saw clearly that each ploughing ox had a roll of linen soaked in fire oil wrapped around its tail, and the horns were tied with red silk that was enough to cover the bull's eyes. Looking out of the valley mouth again, I saw thousands of young people leading the ploughing oxen to stand in line outside the valley mouth, and then lit the oilcloth on the ox's tail in rows, causing the ploughing oxen to eat pain and go crazy, bow their horns, bow their heads and swoop, and rush into the valley like a giant beast.
In just one cup of tea, there are no less than 2,000 wild bulls rushing in from the mouth of the valley, and they are still pouring into the valley.
At this time, the first batch of wild bulls that rushed into the valley had already broken through the front of the barbarian army and officially faced the main army of the barbarian army. And the more than 2,000 barbarians in the front battle, even though they have long swords and iron armor, and horses under their crotches to help, are not the opponents of the mad bull at all. Two thousand war horses were turned over by the people who were hit by the wild bull in the blink of an eye, hundreds of barbarians were trampled to death by the mad bull and frightened horses, and more than 300 barbarians were pierced by the horns, and then more than 300 wild bulls continued to run wild with the corpses of the barbarians, the speed was still as fast as the wind, the collision was still fierce and powerful, and the red silk went forward bravely, rampage, and was invincible.
However, this is only an appetizer, and the big meal is still to come.
As the first wave of 500 mad bulls took the lead and led the way, the number of mad bulls that rushed into the valley one after another increased dramatically, from 2,000 to 3,000 just now. That's not all, there are no less than 2,000 ploughing oxen running behind to follow, and Lu Su and Fa Zheng, who are standing on the high ground at the mouth of the valley, are the commanders of this mad bull legion. Lu Su held the black flag, and every time he waved, fifty ploughing oxen with their tails on fire and red silk on their heads rushed into the valley. And Fa Zheng held the white flag, every time he waved the flag, there were fifty young people driving the ploughing cattle to line up in front of the valley, and then waited for Lu Su's order, as long as they saw Lu Su waving the black flag, they immediately set fire to the cattle.
After two teas, the Green Wolf Valley was extremely noisy. Amazingly, the war drums of the barbarian army stopped, the horns were silenced, the shouts of killing were gone, and the sound of bowstring vibrations was also gone. There were only the sound of horses trampling and screaming, the sound of countless bones breaking and shattering, the cry of ghosts and wolves for help, and the high-pitched roars of wild bulls and the screams of war horses.
In the valley, 3,000 wild bulls and 110,000 barbarian troops faced each other. Despite the fact that the barbarians were outnumbered, armed with long knives and curved bows, and complemented by tall horses, the Raging Bull Legion was unafraid. But I saw them swooping down with their heads down, their horns in front of them, their backbones arched, and their tails swaying from side to side, like arrows from the string charging forward, blindly bowing their heads and running wildly, but none of them looked up at the sky. Therefore, even if there are 100,000 barbarian troops rushing in front of them, even if the swords are added, even if the horns of the bull are broken, even if they are full of arrows and swords, but they will never stop charging if they have a breath of air.
This Raging Bull Legion is actually the bravest legion in the world, and it is also the most powerful team.
However, the barbarian army that was being subjected to the mad charge of the Raging Bull Legion may not know that most of these rampaging bulls were the spoils of war captured from the barbarian army camp in Chiyang City, and only more than 2,000 ploughing cattle were purchased from the people at a high price. Now equipped with the necessary equipment, these cattle have become the most courageous army on the battlefield.
At present, the Raging Bull Legion dares to attack the 110,000 barbarian army head-on with only a few thousand people, and it is still a one-sided battle, rampant and invincible. Beneath their hooves, any enemy who dares to stand in their way will crumble, knock them over, trample them to death, and move on. Even though 100,000 horses were blocking the way, they still rushed up and knocked them to the ground, and then ran over them, knocking them out of a bloody road.
When the Raging Bull Legion increased to 4,000 raging bulls, more than 100,000 barbarian troops and the Raging Bull Legion launched the most brutal and bloody charge. More than 100,000 barbarian troops crowded together, gambling the huge Green Wolf Valley to the brim, and more than 3,700 wild bulls happened to crash into the middle of the valley at this moment. The mad bull army with a blocked road ahead has no reason to make a detour at all, and since there is no road ahead, it will crash into three thousand roads.
Compared with the rampant Raging Bull Army, the barbarian soldiers really wanted to get out of the way and set fire to the bulls, but unfortunately they had more than enough heart and not enough strength. Once more than 100,000 people and horses charged, it was not easy to stop suddenly in the middle, coupled with the front and back blockage, the formation was chaotic, so many people and horses were crowded together, where was there still a gap for the fire ox to pass. What's more, these crazy fire bulls don't just have one way, but go their own way, and once they are blocked, they will rush wildly. Among them, there are hundreds of wild bulls mixed in the middle of the barbarian war horses, causing hundreds of thousands of barbarian troops to be confused, many war horses are frightened and then rampage with the wild bulls, making the barbarian army more and more chaotic, every minute and every second, thousands of barbarian soldiers die tragically under the hooves, horns or hooves of horses.
For a time, the once quiet and quiet Green Wolf Valley turned into a hell on earth, hundreds of rampaging bulls were cut into beef by swords, and tens of thousands of brute soldiers were trampled into meat by rampaging bulls and war horses.
When the last fifty fiery oxen were released from the mouth of the valley to the south, all 5,000 fiery oxen rushed into the valley, crushing from the south end of the valley to the north end like a flood of beasts. Although more than 500 fire oxen had been cut down by the barbarian army at this time, the casualties of the barbarian army were dozens of times that of the fire ox. Moreover, as more and more horses were frightened and went berserk, the Raging Bull Legion had an even larger number of reinforcements, which further increased the rate of casualties of the barbarian army.
When the Raging Bull Legion appeared, countless barbarians abandoned their horses and climbed the valley heights on both sides, trying to escape by taking the road, and the barbarians turned their horses in the rear, hoping to escape from the valley mouth to the north. At this time, they seemed to have forgotten that there were still 40,000 Han army cavalry on the high ground of the valley on both sides, and one of them, a bow and crossbow battalion of more than 4,000 people, had already captured the high ground on both sides of the valley mouth in the north as early as the beginning of the fire ox rushing into the valley, and then set up a bow and crossbow array to shoot and kill the barbarian army who tried to retreat and flee.
In the midst of endless killing, the sunset slowly set, and at this time, the battle in the Blue Wolf Valley was nearing its end, and the red blood stains in the valley were comparable to the sunset, and not inferior, or even more bright red.
It was Zhou Yu's first big win since he set out on the expedition, but it was enough to settle the problem.
