Chapter 1472: The soldiers are timid and disheartened
It has turned completely dark.
From the top of the valley, the situation below could no longer be seen at all, and only chaotic shouts and screams could be heard.
There is no need to see it at all, all they have to do is shoot the arrow.
Every cavalryman in the Zhenbei Army is a skilled archer. From top to bottom, the power of arrows is not too far away, and they can fully exert their power!
Within two moments, they had fired all the arrows, at least more than 200,000 arrows.
When the arrow was shot out, the boulders prepared in advance on the side of the mountain wall were also pushed down.
The falling boulders increased the casualties of the warriors in the Western Regions and aggravated the confusion of the team. At this moment, the large size of the troops was no longer an advantage, but a disadvantage.
Crowded and stampeded.
In a dark environment, and having to be wary of arrows shooting overhead and falling heavy objects at all times, even the brave warriors of the Western Regions became vulnerable and frightened at this moment.
Shocked and confused.
Uneasiness spread and the entire team lost order.
The strong smell of blood also began to emit, which meant that large-scale casualties had occurred.
There are warriors and war horses.
They were actually a tired army. Although they were selected for selection, they were still exhausted from chasing the enemy day and night.
It was the retreating enemy troops in front that tempted them like a piece of fat meat about to be eaten, stimulating their mental strength.
Now, I encountered an ambush.
Let them know that their desire to catch up with the enemy has been in vain, and their energy has been instantly dispersed.
Under such an ambush and shooting, the soldiers were frightened and their morale was shattered.
At night, such beasts from the abyss swallowed them up, but they didn't know where the way forward was?
"boom!"
A loud roar rang in his ears, and Daganhamu was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse.
The war horse was also frightened, and he pulled hard on the reins to try to calm himself down.
Daganhamu had already been hit by two arrows. Fortunately, one was in his arm and the other was in his shoulder. They were not critical, but he could still hold on.
To retreat, to escape.
It's the only thing he wants to do at the moment.
The not-so-long valley road turned into a purgatory, and nothing could be seen except darkness.
This valley road is not long, and perhaps the enemy is outside, but he no longer has any desire.
I just want to go back now!
As for casualties and losses?
I don't care about these things, the most important thing now is to save my life.
He hasn't felt this way for a long time.
wrong!
It has never happened before, and this is the first time!
Damn it!
In this chaos, maintaining order became the most difficult thing, and his orders could not be executed quickly. He just subconsciously moved out under the crowd of golden armored warriors based on his feelings.
And in this process, you have to protect your own life at all times.
"Bang!"
At this moment, Daganhamu's helmet made a sound. He knew that he was hit by an arrow. Fortunately, he was protected by the helmet, otherwise the arrow would have killed him.
However, the shock caused by the arrow's impact also gave him a headache and dizziness.
Daganhamu tried hard to stay awake and calm, and soon he calmed down. Severe pain came from his right shoulder, making him almost let go of the reins.
Hit by an arrow again!
This arrow is so powerful that it almost pierces the bone!
Daganhamu gritted his teeth, he could not relax now, he could only endure, he could only persevere!
If he's hit by another arrow, he probably won't be able to hold on anymore, and now he can barely hold the reins.
The most dangerous thing is to be hit by a boulder, which will directly turn into minced meat, without any chance of survival.
The screams were endless.
There was a fire behind and the pungent smell of smoke could be smelled.
Are the fire attacks coming?
He could imagine how desperate the samurai was, and he was almost desperate.
Once the thick smoke spreads, I'm afraid everyone will die here...
Daganhamu is like a small boat in the vast sea, swaying in the wind. It is not known whether it can survive...
"This is the enemy's conspiracy!"
"This is a tactic to lure the enemy, please be careful!"
Suddenly, Deng Mingyuan's voice of advice sounded in Da Ganhamu's mind.
He was the only one to remonstrate, but he was severely beaten. Now it seems that Deng Mingyuan was right.
He is from the Central Plains and knows the strategies of the Central Plains people best.
Daganhamu regretted not listening to Deng Mingyuan. Did he not want to take revenge on himself, but really for the Western Region Army?
His thoughts were confused, just like the current army in the Western Regions.
No one knows how many casualties there are at this moment, but they should be very tragic.
The Zhenbei Army above the valley road used all possible means.
After the arrows were shot, they smashed the rocks, and after the big rocks were smashed, they smashed the rocks, even the size of fists, and lit the dry firewood they found and threw them down. In short, they couldn't be idle.
I didn't find much dry firewood, it was a scarce thing after all, but it was enough.
This army in the Western Regions has suffered the most painful blow.
"Master Hou, we have achieved a great victory!"
The general came with excitement on his face.
While they were killing the enemy, Bai Shaoyuan was always watching from the side.
"Um."
Bai Shaoyuan didn't talk much and had no expression. He was used to his deployment, and the Marquis always had such a cold face.
"But so far, we have almost exhausted all the means we can use."
Bai Shaoyuan said: "Send the order and ask the soldiers to go down the mountain overnight and go to the station to fetch their horses. It's our turn to pursue the enemy."
"yes!"
The general took the order and left.
It is a bit dangerous to go down the mountain overnight, but the opportunity cannot be missed.
There may be some escapees among the enemy troops who have been ambushed, so they can counter-pursue to expand the victory.
Time passed little by little.
The moon is empty.
Several hours had passed since the ambush, and the valley was completely swallowed up by darkness, but the screams did not weaken, but became louder.
Not far from the other end of the valley road, the Anxi Army has been stationed.
Ye Wushuang, Ji Rui, and Jin Yue looked towards the direction of Nanyi Mountain and could still vaguely hear some sounds.
"This movement is quite big!"
"I don't know how many enemy troops are chasing us. If we can annihilate them all, the strength of the Western Region Army will be greatly reduced."
"Even if we can't annihilate them all, I'm afraid only a few can escape."
The three women spoke to each other.
The plan to reduce the number of soldiers and increase the number of troops was successful!
"General Bai will pursue the enemy tomorrow, and we will go back again."
Ye Wushuang said: "On the way to escape, there are more than ten thousand troops scattered, and they will also ambush the enemy on the way back."
Having said this, she turned to look at Ji Rui.
"Your plan is really clever. It's a double ambush."
Deliberately spreading out the troops on the way to escape was a ploy to trick the enemy into thinking that the troops were fleeing in all directions.
In fact, these troops were ambushed.
Ji Rui had already calculated that after the pursuing Western Region army was ambushed, it would inevitably retreat to join the remaining troops. This was killing two birds with one stone, which meant that the enemy troops would be ambushed on their way back!
