At the same time as the word "go to battle" was shouted out, Yu Fuluo threw his saber with all his strength, and suddenly collapsed to the ground like an eagle with its wings broken.And the saber he threw flipped in the air, making a crisp tinkling sound, and then stuck upside down on the grass more than twenty steps away, the hilt swaying in the wind.

"Attack, go to war! Kill"

Following Yu Fuluo's order, the deputy commanders on the left and right wings followed closely and shouted loudly. Immediately, 11 barbarian cavalry came out in response, and the shouts of killing resounded through the sky and shook all directions.

"Tat-tat-tat-rumble!"

In an instant, the sound of horseshoes slammed loudly, and the three phalanxes deformed instantly, rushing out at a speed as fast as the naked eye could see, rushing straight at the Han army's camp like river waves and waves.

In front of the formation of the Han army, Zhou Yu watched coldly as the barbarian army's war drums roared and horns blared, and he rode alone at the mouth of the inevitable valley, motionless as a mountain.The moment he heard Yu Fuluo's hissing and roaring, he saw him raise the black and white flag again, waved his arms, and the flag waved to the left and right.Immediately he yelled loudly: "All the officers and men listen to the orders, and the left and right wings obey the orders of the commanders of the two wings, and there must be no mistakes! Listen to my orders now and go up the mountain!"

That's right, when the entire barbarian army was attacking, Zhou Yu's order was not to attack, but to order [-] cavalry to divide into left and right wings and board the valleys on both sides to avoid the frontal battlefield.

So all the soldiers heard the truth, although most of the soldiers were puzzled and even wondered whether the chief general Zhou Yu was confused, but under the orders of their respective generals, they still rode up the mountain and marched towards the high ground on both sides of the valley.

It is said that Qinglang Valley is not a valley in the true sense, but a low-lying land on the prairie, and the highlands on both sides are not cliffs, but grasslands with steep slopes.The so-called valley mouth is just the water outlet of the flood at both ends of the valley during the flood season. Over the years, a rather stable and narrow outlet has been formed.Therefore, riding a horse forward can still reach the high ground on both sides, but the speed is not fast, you can only climb up step by step, but you can't ride the horse wildly, otherwise you will fall down.

Chapter 587

Three days ago, Yu Fuluo sent an envoy to send a letter of war. The time and place of the invitation to fight were predetermined by Yu Fuluo in advance.

Zhou Yu challenged without hesitation, but put forward a trivial condition, that is, to postpone the decisive battle from Chen to noon.

That's it.

The results speak for themselves.

Yu Fuluo readily agreed, because the barbarian army came to the valley to form an array at [-]:[-] today, and when the formation was completed, it happened to be at the beginning of noon.

Just because this place was chosen by Yu Fuluo for the decisive battle, the barbarian army had nothing to worry about, and there was no need to worry about the Han army cheating or using tricks to set up ambushes on both sides of the valley.Qinglang Valley is surrounded by relatively flat grasslands for 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 troops, dividing and annihilating them, it is tantamount to seeking a dead end.Because the strength of the barbarian army is three times that of the Han army, even if they divide their troops to pursue and kill them, they still have more enemies and fewer enemies, and they are sure to win.

In addition, this grassland was originally the territory of the Tuge tribe.Every plant and tree here is firmly remembered in the hearts of the warriors of the various tribes, Ai Luo and his ten thousand cavalry. Therefore, 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 place of the decisive battle in the valley was to respond to Yan Luo's request to minimize the damage to the grassland so that the tribes could harvest pasture for the winter.After all, this is the fertile grassland that the Tu tribes depend on for survival. If they don't cherish it themselves, how can they expect the Han army to take pity on this grassland?

Therefore, at the beginning of the war, seeing the Han army retreating to the high ground on both sides of the valley, trying to avoid the sharp edge, this made the barbarian army, whose morale had been frustrated, increase their fighting spirit. come to kill.

They were not worried at all about the tricks of the Han army.Because this is their territory, which is equivalent to their own door.

Do you still have to worry about being ambushed by the enemy when fighting at your own door?

"Boom"

Hundreds of thousands of war horses galloped freely, trampling the entire Qinglang Valley groaning, the earth trembled, and the sound of the horses' trampling was earth-shattering, and the shock could be clearly felt within a hundred miles.

The distance of three hundred steps is not far, nor is it close. The images that normal people can clearly see are probably at this distance.

Zhou Yu at the entrance of Lema Valley squinted his eyes solemnly to measure the speed of the barbarian army's advance and the sharply shortened distance between the two sides.

Two hundred steps. 150 steps, 120 steps, a hundred steps.

Suddenly, Zhou Yu moved.He suddenly lifted the reins and clamped the horse's belly tightly.The black fat horse under its crotch moved suddenly, and ran straight to the valley and highland to the west with lightning speed.

For most horses.The steep slopes up to tens of feet on both sides made it difficult to travel quickly.Can only climb steadily.But the black fat horse under Zhou Yu's crotch lived up to the name of a god horse, and the two spinners under his belly did not have beautiful patterns, but a veritable BMW god horse, crossing mountains and rivers like walking on flat ground.At this moment, the black fat horse showed an ability far superior to that of ordinary war horses, walking like flying, and carried Zhou Yu up to the high ground in a short while.Then snorted, stopped on the high ground, and looked down at the barbarian army at the foot of the mountain together with the master.

At this time, the barbarian army was approaching the mouth of the valley to the south.In another [-] steps, you can rush to the position where the Han army lined up before.Immediately, Zhou Yu drew out his sword, looked at Lu Su and Fazheng who were on the opposite side of the valley, and shouted sharply: "Beat the drums to help the battle, and the fire bull formation will attack!"

"Boom, boom, boom!" Immediately after Zhou Yu's order, the high ground on both sides of the valley suddenly sounded high-pitched and passionate drums.

"Boom boom boom" However, after a burst of loud bangs poured in from outside the valley entrance in the south, the sound of the drums on the Qinglang Valley battlefield was overshadowed, and was instantly drowned out by the huge boom.

Immediately, I saw a bull with red silk on its horns crazily rushing into the valley entrance, and then hundreds of bulls with red silk horns appeared in the sight of the condescending Han army.In an instant, more and more farm cattle with horns tied with red silk rushed in like a flood of beasts, scrambling to rush into the valley, and then brazenly rushed into the front of the barbarian army.

It wasn't until this time that the generals of the Han army realized clearly that the tails of each cattle were wrapped with a roll of kerosene-soaked sackcloth, and the horns were tied with red silk enough to cover the eyes of the cattle.Looking out of the mouth of the valley, I saw thousands of young and strong cattle came to stand in line outside the mouth of the valley, and then lit the tarpaulins on the tails of the cattle one by one, causing the cattle to go mad with pain, bow their horns, and bow their heads. Swooping, rushing into the valley like a giant beast.

In just one cup of tea, there were no less than [-] mad cows rushing in from the mouth of the valley, and they were still pouring into the valley continuously.

At this time, the first batch of mad cows that rushed into the valley had already broken through the front line of the barbarian army and officially confronted the main force of the barbarian army.But even though the two thousand barbarians in the front line had long swords and iron armor and horses to help them, they were no match for Mad Bull at all.In the blink of an eye, two thousand warriors were turned over by the mad bulls. Hundreds of barbarians were trampled to death by the mad bulls and startled horses. More than 300 barbarians were pierced by the bull's horns, and then more than [-] mad bulls were on top of them. Following the corpse of the barbarian soldier, he continued to run wildly, the speed was still as fast as the wind, and the collision was still fierce and powerful. With the red silk on his back, he went forward bravely, rampaging and invincible.

However, this is just an appetizer, just a small test of the bull's head, and the big meal is yet to come.

With the first wave of [-] mad cows leading the way and leading the tide, the number of mad cows rushing into the valley one after another increased sharply, from [-] to [-].That's not all, there are no less than [-] cattle rushing to follow up, and Lu Su and Fazheng standing on the high ground at the mouth of the valley are the commanders of this mad cattle army.Lu Su held a black flag, and every time he waved it, fifty cattle with fire tails and red silk heads rushed into the valley.And Fazheng was holding a white flag, and every time the flag was waved, fifty young and strong men would line up in front of Taniguchi, driving cattle, and then wait for Lu Su's order. As long as they saw Lu Su waving the black flag, they would immediately light the fire and herd the cattle.

After two cups of tea, the Qinglang Valley was extremely noisy.Surprisingly, the sound of the barbarian army's war drums stopped, and the horn horns also fell silent at some point, the sound of shouting and killing disappeared, and the sound of the bow string vibrating also disappeared.There are only the sound of rumbling horses stepping and screaming, countless bones breaking and breaking, ghosts crying and wolves crying for help, and there are high-pitched roars of mad cows and war horses.

In the valley, 11 mad bulls confronted [-] barbarians head-on.Although the barbarian soldiers are numerous and powerful, armed with long knives, curved bows on their backs, and complemented by tall horses, the Mad Bull Legion is fearless.But seeing them swooping with their heads lowered, their extremely sharp horns in front, their spines arched, and their tails swinging left and right, they rushed forward like arrows off the string, and they kept their heads lowered and ran wildly, but none of them looked up at the sky.Therefore, even if there are [-] barbarian troops rushing forward, even if the swords are added to the body, even if the horns are broken, even if the arrows and swords are stuck all over their bodies, they will never stop charging as long as they have breath. pace.

This Mad Bull Legion is indeed the most valiant legion in the world, and it is also the team with the strongest combat effectiveness.

However, the barbarian army who is being attacked by the mad cow army may not know that more than half of these mad cows are spoils captured from the barbarian army camp in Chiyang City, and only more than 2000 cattle were purchased at high prices from the hands of the people. come.Now that these cattle are equipped with some necessary equipment, they have transformed into the bravest legion on the battlefield.

Right now, the Mad Bull Legion, with only a few thousand people, dared to attack the 11 barbarian army head-on, and it was still fighting one-sidedly, rampant and invincible.Under their hoofs, any foe who dared stand in their way would crumble, knocking them over, trampling them to death, and moving on.Even if a hundred thousand war horses blocked the way, they still rushed forward and overturned it to the ground, and then crushed it, smashing a bloody path.

When the number of mad cows increased to 10,000, more than 700 barbarians and the mad cows launched the most cruel and bloody charge. [-]+ barbarian troops crowded together, betting the huge Qinglang Valley to the brim, and more than [-] mad cows just crashed into the middle of the valley at this moment.There is no reason for the Mad Bull Legion, whose road is blocked, to go around. Since there is no road ahead, they will break through [-] roads.

Compared with the unscrupulous mad bull army, the soldiers of the barbarian army really wanted to open the way and let the bulls pass by, but it was a pity that they had more energy than they wanted. Once the 10,000+ people charge, it is not easy to stop suddenly in the middle, coupled with the front and back congestion, the situation is chaotic, so many people are crowded together, there is no room for the fire bull to pass.What's more, these crazy fire bulls don't only want one way, but go their own way, and if they get blocked, they will rush wildly.Among them, hundreds of mad cows were mixed among the barbarian war cavalry, causing the 10,000+ barbarian army to be in chaos. Thousands of barbarian soldiers died tragically under the hoofs, horns or hooves of horses.

For a time, the once quiet and quiet Qinglang Valley turned into a hell on earth, hundreds of mad cows were chopped into beef by swords, and tens of thousands of barbarians were trampled into meat by mad bulls and war horses.

After the last fifty fire oxen were released from the mouth of the valley in the south and charged into the valley, all five thousand fire oxen rushed into the valley, crushing them from the south end of the valley to the north end like a flood of beasts.Although more than [-] fire oxen had been killed by the barbarian army at this time, the casualties of the barbarian army were dozens of times that of the fire oxen.Moreover, as more and more horses became frightened and went mad, the Mad Bull Legion had a larger reinforcement, which further accelerated the casualties of the barbarian army.

When the Mad Bull Legion all appeared on the stage, countless barbarians abandoned their horses and climbed up the valleys and highlands on both sides, trying to escape.At this time, they seemed to have forgotten that there were [-] Han soldiers on the high ground in the valleys on both sides. Among them, a crossbow battalion of more than [-] people had captured the highlands on both sides of the valley entrance in the north as early as the beginning of the fire ox rushing into the valley. Then he put down his bow and crossbow array and shot and killed the barbarians who were trying to retreat and flee.

In the midst of the endless slaughter, the setting sun was slowly setting. At this time, the battle in the Blue Wolf Valley was coming to an end, and the deep red blood stains in the valley were comparable to the setting sun.

This is the first big victory since Zhou Yu led the expedition, but this victory is enough to settle all problems.

Chapter 588

Outside the Great Wall, the autumn wind suddenly blows, and the mountains and rivers turn yellow.

The bead curtains in the pass warmed the tent, and they were turned into red waves.

Shuofengkou Fortress, the commander's big tent.

When the expeditionary army was fighting bloody battles with the barbarians on the front line, the coach Li Li took a nap in the afternoon.

In this expedition, Li Li really sat in the rear.Apart from ensuring the supply of food and supplies and the delivery of ordnance to the front line on time, he did not ask any questions about frontline military affairs or war affairs. At most, he listened to the scouts' military reports every day, but he just listened to them and did not express any opinions, let alone conveyed any military orders to the front line. .

This time, as the coach, he did a thorough job. He was the shopkeeper from the beginning to the end. His heart is really not ordinary!

It has been a month since the army vowed to go to the barbarian army. Except for the victory in the first battle of Chiyang City, the soldiers who went out were defeated one after another, and a defeat report would be sent back almost every two or three days.So far, there are at least five volumes of defeat reports piled up on Li Lishuai's case, each of which is similar with minor differences. The battles were not major, and the losses of soldiers and horses were not many, but without exception, they were all defeated. The Xiliang army lost to the barbarian army.

However, the most strange thing about the defeat report is that every battle report is written by Lu Su, and there is no mention of support in the bamboo slips.However, Zhou Yu, the chief general of the expedition, led the army to the expedition and there was no letter sent back. All the military information was written by Lu Su, the commander of the army, and he was meticulous in business affairs. Li sent troops to reinforce.

This is Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin, who looks modest on the outside, but is really arrogant!

These battle reports were on the desk, so naturally they couldn't hide them from Dian Wuxia, Ma Yunluo, the personal guard commander Li Zhi and others. When Li Li knew about the defeat report, they also knew about the situation on the front line.Therefore, when Li Li was indifferent and let go of the failure report, they were anxious and anxious.
