The Invincible Sixth Prince

"kill!"

The loud shouts of killing accompanied by the sound of rolling horse hooves resounded throughout the world.

The Beifu Army has won many battles, and even when faced with enemy forces many times their own, their morale remains high.

Those who didn't know this thought they had an absolute military advantage.

Seeing the Beifu Army attacking his flank army without any scruples, Chi Yan couldn't help but feel secretly frightened.

The Beifu Army was either crazy or had a conspiracy!

But obviously, the Beifu Army is not crazy, they just have a chance to win!

Bai Toulin!

Frightened, Chi Yan immediately saw Baitou Lin on the flank.

ambush!

There must be a large number of ambushes in Baitou Forest!

The enemy clearly wanted to cooperate with Bai Toulin's ambush and attack the cavalry on their flanks from both sides!

As if to confirm Chiyan's judgment, a flock of birds jumped up in the Baitou Forest and soared into the sky.

Chiyan's pupils suddenly shrank, and there was no longer any hesitation.

retreat!

We must retreat quickly!

Once the troops on the flanks are attacked from two sides, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

After suffering heavy losses on the flanks, it will soon be their turn!

"Order, the entire army retreats!"

Chiyan roared loudly.

"Woo..."

As Chiyan's order was issued, the retreat horn sounded quickly on the battlefield.

The low and long horn sound quickly reached the ears of the ghost cavalry.

The Guifang cavalry who were raiding the right wing of the Beifu Army, led by the general, moved closer to Chiyan's headquarters. After making a circle, they quickly retreated back.

The enemy has fallen into a trap!

Qu Zhi was overjoyed.

Naturally, he would not miss the opportunity for the enemy to retreat in panic, and immediately led his troops to pursue them.

Suddenly, a strange scene appeared on the vast battlefield.

The 20,000 ghost cavalrymen were chased by the 4,000 Beifu troops. A few of the ghost cavalrymen were so frightened that they even dropped their weapons, just to reduce the load on their horses so that they could run a little faster.

Even just a little bit!

In the chaos, a few cavalry fell behind and were immediately ruthlessly killed by the pursuing Beifu troops.

Qu Zhi led his army in pursuit until they were two miles away, and then they gradually stopped.

Looking at the ghost cavalry who were still running away in panic, Qu Zhi felt like he was in a dream.

Four thousand cavalry chased 20,000 cavalry and killed hundreds of enemy soldiers.

They themselves were unscathed.

This was his first time fighting this kind of battle.

"Ha ha……"

I don't know who laughed first, and then everyone in Qu Zhi's group burst out laughing.

Qu Zhi also laughed for a long time. When he came to his senses, he ordered the soldiers to start cleaning the battlefield.

Although the gains in this battle were not large, it greatly affected the morale of the enemy.

Moreover, their strategic purpose was also achieved.

Not long after, Yun Zheng in the rear received the battle report from the front.

Qu Zhi's troops killed more than 300 enemy troops and captured more than 100 people.

However, because many of the enemy's ownerless horses ran back with the large army, they only captured about a hundred intact horses, and there were more than seventy injured and dead horses in total.

Just in time, I can give everyone a toothpaste.

"Order Qu Zhi's troops to return immediately with the captured materials, interrogate the prisoners, and understand the enemy's situation!"

Yunzheng quickly issued the order.

Half an hour later, everyone began to grill the fragrant horse meat, and Qu Zhi also reported the results of the interrogation to Yun Zheng.

Currently, the enemy in front of them has 60,000 troops. In addition to their 20,000 cavalry, there are also 3,000 elite cavalry, which are the guards of Tuo Jing, the ghost king.

Their other army consisted of 40,000 people, composed of the defeated troops defeated by Beihuan earlier and the troops subsequently mobilized by Tuojing.

That army now only has 15,000 cavalry.

The previous commander of that army had been beheaded by Tuo Jing due to defeat, and was now led by Tuo Jing's most trusted general, Mu Liju.

In addition, they also got the news that Tuo Jing whipped the ghost Fang Guoxiang to have fun.

This matter was widely spread among the Guifang Army, and many people knew about it.

But there are different opinions as to why Tuo Huan was whipped.

Some people say that Tuohuan was whipped because he advocated surrender.

Some people say that Tuohuan was whipped because he offended Chi Yan.

Others say that Tuo Huan was whipped because he contradicted Tuo Jing, the ghost king.

But these captured soldiers did not have a high status in the army, and no one knew the truth.

"Your Highness, what should we do with these prisoners?"

After reporting the situation, Qu Zhi asked Yunzheng again.

With just over a hundred prisoners, we can't send someone to escort them back, right?

There seems to be a lot of inconvenience in bringing these prisoners.

They only had such a small number of people, and they had to send people to guard these prisoners to prevent them from escaping and leaking their true situation.

No matter what you think, it will delay things!

Yun Zheng smiled and put his palms on his forehead to block the light, "The weather is nice today!"

what?

Qu Zhi looked at Yunzheng dumbfounded.

nice weather?

The weather is really nice today.

The sun was shining, but not hot.

But what does this have to do with the question I asked?

Qu Zhi was stunned for a long time, and suddenly he was shocked again.

He understood what Yunzheng meant.

Yun Zheng looked at him and said nothing about how to deal with the prisoners. He just meant to let him deal with them on his own!

As for how to handle it yourself, do we need to say anything?

"I will retire at the end!"

Qu Zhi saluted Yun Zheng and left quickly after getting Yun Zheng's permission.

……

On the other side, Chi Yan finally led his army back.

Although they suffered a small loss, the loss was still within their acceptable range.

In Chi Yan's view, it is worthwhile to use this loss to find out the enemy's strength.

"Are you sure the enemy reinforcements have arrived?"

Tuo Jin suppressed the panic in his heart and looked at Chi Yan with a gloomy expression.

"Sure!"

Chi Yanyan said firmly: "What we can see alone is that there are tens of thousands of cavalry and infantry. In the Baitou Forest, there are at least tens of thousands of horses ambushed! There are estimated to be at least 20,000 troops behind the enemy... …”

With that said, Chi Yan analyzed the basis of his judgment with Tuo Jing.

The enemy originally had a large group of cavalry, but today they only saw a few thousand cavalry.

The enemy also deliberately released thousands of infantry, apparently setting a trap for them and waiting for them to attack.

After he saw through the enemy's plan, the enemy quickly adjusted their strategy and turned the lure of the enemy deeper into a two-sided attack.

Today, there is no smoke at all behind the enemy's rear.

This shows what?

This shows that the enemy did not want to expose the troops in the rear and deliberately hid the army in the rear!

But judging from the situation reported by the scouts yesterday, such a large formation in the enemy's rear cannot be created by a few thousand cavalry.

Judging from various circumstances, the number of enemy cavalry is at least 30,000!

According to their previous understanding, the total number of cavalry on the enemy's front was only 20,000!

This is not the arrival of follow-up reinforcements, so what is it?

Listening to Chi Yan's analysis, Tuo Jin couldn't help but frown.

Chiyan's analysis makes sense.

It seems that the enemy troops on the Sole River plain have really come to support us!

Damn Qiu Chi and Dayue Kingdom!

How could it be defeated so quickly?

Tuo Jing kept cursing Qiu Chi and Dayue Guo in his heart, but the sadness on his face became heavier and heavier.

The men they sent to explore the water source have not returned yet.

However, the enemy army has already attacked!

But they haven't even decided which direction they should retreat to!

How to do?

What on earth should we do now?
