Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 267 Trap

If you look at it from the air and pull the observation angle to a very high angle, you will find that the terrain from Hanhangu Pass to Xin'an is like a sharp triangle from west to east, and the two sides that become sharper towards the east are the same. It is a mountain, and the flat land is relatively better inside the triangle. The tip of the easternmost triangle is Hangu Pass, and the bottom is Xin'an County.

And there are four soldiers in this sharp triangle. The one closest to Hangu Pass in the east is Guo Pu's infantry and auxiliary soldiers rushing slowly. Pu seven hundred Xiliang cavalry.

Somewhere ahead are a hundred Xiliang cavalry who have scattered, biting a dozen or twenty cavalry and chasing after them, and in front of these fleeing cavalry, on the side of the mountain that deviated from the main route In a field, Yu Fuluo was bringing his four hundred clansmen who had just put on Han iron armor and were waiting quietly, as if waiting for prey to fall into a trap...

This is a field in the mountains. Some hardworking farmers have planted wheat seeds, but the loose soil has been trampled down by so many soldiers from the Southern Huns, and even their heads popped out. The green shoots were also trampled and mixed with the soil.

There happened to be a small hill on the side of this field, which blocked the view from the direction of Hangu Pass. Yu Fuluo asked someone to cut down some tall branches and put them in the front, even if some cavalry looked back. If you don't take it seriously, you may not be able to see that there are many people hiding behind the branches and leaves.

  Yesterday, Yu Fuluo sent people to run the road here several times with horses pulling large boulders back and forth, and compacted the loose field soil on the route in the direction of impact.

  In the Xiongnu, when a person died, he was either buried in the sky or buried in the ground.

  Sky burial is to find a mountain bag, get some stones to build a platform, and then put the dead people on it, maybe light a fire, maybe even save the fire, and naturally the birds and beasts of nature will come to digest it.

Ground burial is to dig a deep pit in any place, put the dead person in it, fill it with soil, and finally spur the horses. After the cattle and sheep ran back and forth and trampled on it two or three times, even a wild animal with a sharp nose Wolves, and can't find any traces...

  Battelle lowered his head, twisted his body, and touched the armor plates on his body from time to time, making the iron armor plates collide with each other and make tinkling sounds.

  Yu Fuluo slapped Battelle with his backhand, and cursed: "Goat epilepsy? Don't shake!"

  Battelle laughed a few times, and said: "The craftsmanship of the Han people is really good. Look at this small piece of armor, each piece is the same size..."

  The Han Chinese leather armor that Battelle used to wear was replaced by a brand new piece of iron armor this time. I feel that it is even more novel and cherished.

   At this moment, a sharp whistling sound came, and Yu Fuluo and the others all looked terrified. Immediately there was the sound of horseshoes, and more than a dozen cavalry rushed along the road, then turned around and ran away along the road in a blink of an eye...

As if on the front and rear feet, a group of Xiliang soldiers also chased along the road, and there were a few self-proclaimed archers who were shooting with bows. Naturally, their shots were not very accurate, but there were so many people who were shooting arrows. Those who are unlucky will meet Ruya.

   "Aha! It's finally here!" Excited, Battelle grabbed the reins of the horse beside him, and was about to get on the horse, but Yu Fuluo grabbed him.

   "It's not yet time! Wait!" Yu Fuluo glanced at the Xiliang cavalry who were chasing, and knew that the number was wrong, and there must be more behind, so he stopped Battelle's movement.

The current Guo Pu army, which is divided into three parts, is in a very delicate state. The head of the village who rushed to the front knew that there was a large army behind, so he also chased forward with confidence. First, he wanted to kill these rangers. The second is to find the large army of yellow turban thieves. Anyway, I have horses, so even if I see that the momentum is not right, it is no problem to turn around and run away.

  Guo Pu headquarters behind the vanguard also believed that there was no warning ahead, and naturally believed that the road was safe and did not encounter any enemies, and they were all rushing forward under the stimulation of wine, meat and money...

   The infantry and auxiliary soldiers who fell at the end were already half-tired just by accelerating forward, and naturally they didn't think about the issue of ambush.

  Therefore, the 700 cavalrymen of Guo Pu headquarters did not detect the sides of the road at all, and rushed directly past the place where Ufulo was ambush...

Yu Fuluo waited for a while, seeing that there were no soldiers coming behind Guo Pu, he licked his lips, waved his hand to move away the covered branches, then got on the horse, slowly drew out the ring sword, raised When he came to the front, he kissed the back of the knife, and raised it high...

  The crowd behind Battelle, including Battelle, also got on their horses one after another, drew out their weapons, and fixed their eyes on Yu Fuluo's raised knife...

Yu Fuluo slashed the saber to his side, and rushed out of the hiding place first. Behind him, four hundred Southern Huns cavalry who had put on armor like the Han army, pierced Guo Pu's rear like an awl. past!

   At this time, Guo Pu's front had already bumped into the other half of the Huns pretending to be yellow scarves, who were waiting for work.

  However, the Xiongnu army did not give the hundred cavalry in front of Guo Pu any chance to take a breather and line up, and directly pressed them up...

There is not much room for consideration. One is that the terrain on both sides is either mountains or fields, and it is impossible to go around in circles. If you turn around and run, it will affect the follow-up route of the headquarters. I felt something was wrong, why so many cavalry appeared from the Yellow Turban Bandits, but Guo Pu's commander still ordered the troops to form a formation to counter the oncoming enemy...

Cavalry versus cavalry, in fact, is to see who is more ruthless, the sword is sharper, and the armor is harder. Now that the Southern Huns have replaced the Han army with armor, although there are only a hundred people in the front with armor, the increase in combat power is not enough. It's half past one, and it's not a problem to deal with Guo Pu's striker...

Guo Pu also received the news from the forward at this time, and immediately ordered to speed up. This road itself is inconvenient to turn around, so there is only one way forward. There is more wiggle room!

The cavalryman who was running at the end of Guo Pu felt an abnormal vibration, which was completely different from the frequency of the horses under him. He couldn't help but looked around in doubt, and suddenly saw a large group of black shadows in the corner of his eyes. Running wildly from behind him, he was so frightened that he quickly turned his head to look, and suddenly panicked, pulling his neck and shouting: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Behind..."

   Cao said: "It is better for me to corrupt the people of the world than for them to corrupt me."

   Liu said: "Brothers are like siblings, and wives are like a rot."

   Sun said: "The karma of corrupting brothers should not be abandoned."

   So in terms of the pattern, Cao won in the end.
