Chapter 250: Taking advantage of chaos
The torch was slanted and the long dragon was slanted into the official road.
The three thousand commanders who led the team were anxious and galloping.
A fire broke out in the shipyard?
This is the most important part of the Yingzhou Prince's strategy to go south.
Without enough naval warship guards, how can the army cross the river?
Originally, these three thousand Liao troops were the ones who guarded the boat.
It was just because the last raid was stable, and the fleet was damaged a lot and needed supplementary urgently.
The production scale has expanded by more than triple at once.
Their military camps at the docks were all used to stack materials or converted into docks.
As a last resort, the guards had to move to the horse breeding training ground in the Mid-mountain Basin to temporarily stay.
The distance is less than ten miles.
If there is any emergency, cavalry rescue is still in time.
Suddenly, six Mars slashed through the dark night sky.
"boom!"
The phosphorus fire bomb suddenly exploded in the Liao army.
The splashing sparks ignite when they see things, and people can't escape them.
“Ahhhhhh…”
"There is an ambush!"
The Qianfu tribe who rushed to the front fell into a sea of fire.
The team behind suddenly panicked.
"Retreat!"
"The enemy has heavy weapons, keep the distance."
The Liao army was all light cavalry.
If you are hit by a turbulent bomb twice, you will really return to the embrace of Changshengtian.
The other two thousand men responded in time and immediately divided into two.
Some of the back teams became front teams and retreated along the far path.
The other part retreats south along the official road.
Shen Lin pulled out his long knife with a "clang".
"Light and heavy riding, bypass the fire zone."
"Attack the enemy who retreated south!"
"Abide by the order!"
Take advantage of the fire.
Liang Zhi, Wu Qi, and Hong Niangzi led his men and horses to run wildly through the fields.
"kill!"
"Swish swish swish!"
A violent crossbow arrow shot out.
One round!
Two rounds!
Three wheels!
To attack him separately is Shen Lin's strategy.
A wave of phosphorus bombs caught off guard, burning at least to death, burning hundreds of front-line troops.
The remaining people became two strands, crossing the hillside shrubs, unable to support each other.
The Five Hundred Iron Army only needs to deal with one enemy.
What are the fears of more than a thousand Liao troops?
Shen Lin said to Chen Liang: "Go to the edge of the fire zone and fight another round towards the mountain road."
"Let them get away!"
"Then, you get on the boat."
"We meet at the mouth of the river!"
Chen Liang understood that this was to create a larger isolation.
"As for orders, sir!"
Shen Lin grabbed the horse's belly and the war horse ran out quickly.
A dozen guards including Bai Snake and Liang Ping followed and rushed into the battlefield.
They don't need melee combat.
Three-wheeled composite crossbow strike.
The Liao army suffered a considerable loss.
Two hundred cavalrymen broke into the panicked Liao army like butter.
It is the last straw that overwhelms the camel.
Then, nearly three hundred light cavalry began to cover up and kill.
Shen Lin, Bai Snake and others had only time to shoot a few arrows.
The remaining enemies who escaped from the sky have escaped into the darkness.
"Don't chase the enemy!"
"Collect war horses."
Shen Lin’s purpose is to grab some war horses as gifts.
He didn't have the intention to get involved with the Liao army for a long time.
After leaving these miles, the night was as bright as paint and could not see far.
If unnecessary losses are caused, it will be a shortcoming.
Not many Liao army escaped successfully.
They just went to the boat yard to put out the fire, and the distance was not far, so taking a horse was a burden.
Therefore, there are only a few hundred war horses left on the battlefield.
However, Shen Lin was also very satisfied.
"The number of people cleaned up in each department!"
"There are dead, no serious injuries?"
“One, two, three, four…”
"There are no casualties in hundreds of families with heavy riders..."
"The female deputies of the heavy cavalry were slightly injured and no deaths."
"The light cavalry... was slightly injured twenty-seven, no serious injuries, no casualties."
Under the admiration of Snake White, Chen Lin laughed.
“Good fight.”
"The light cavalry is in the middle, and the heavy cavalry guards the surroundings."
"Lighten the torch."
"Retreat south!"
"Abide by the order!"
A rumble sounded.
The iron army is about to fight and leave, and in a blink of an eye, it is getting farther and farther away.
It took a quarter of an hour before the remnants of the Liao army came together.
When the two thousand men counted the number of people, they couldn't help but feel sad.
The donkey ball hasn't shot a few arrows yet.
Half of the three thousand-man tribes were destroyed.
There are also two or three hundred and three hundred unrecognizable disabilities.
What to do?
"Gilsch, do you want to chase after me?"
Commander Gilsch escaped from the official road.
He said with lingering fear: "Suddenly, these people are too cruel."
"We can't kill at least two hundred cavalry iron-floating maps."
"Their crossbow arrows have more than twice as far range than their bows."
"It should be... the Lushui Iron Army mentioned by the commander of Yeluyuan."
"I must chase after you!"
"Otherwise, how can we explain to the higher authorities?"
Suddenly I relaxed and understood.
Being good at acting is essential.
Anyway, those people were swaying and lit many torches.
We follow from afar, just treat it as a plague god.
The light cavalry who can participate in the pursuit dies thousands of people.
A centurion scored a score to go to the Taoyuan Town boatyard to take a look.
Not going means dereliction of duty.
The wounded soldiers must also be sent back to the military camp and horse farm.
Is there any battlefield to clean?
Liang Zhi rode his horse from behind to catch up with Chen Lin and said with a smile.
"Sir, as you expected."
"About a thousand people left the fire, please see us off."
The Hongniang was overjoyed.
This battle was fought too fast and she hadn't had enough fun yet.
"Young Master... Ah... Sir, let's have another small ambush?"
"More than 700 war horses were seized."
"Are you too few gifts?"
Chen Lin was immediately happy.
"Girl, let's not care whether the gifts are enough or not."
"Just ask you one!"
"If our army extinguishes the torches."
"The Liao people have no goals, so do they dare to advance lightly?"
Everyone chuckled and shook their heads.
On such a dark night, who can't be wary of it?
The reason why the Iron Army dared to light a torch and rush to the road.
That's because the Liao people never thought it would be possible.
A Great Zhou army actually landed inland.
Even if you encounter it head-on, you won’t walk within a few dozen steps.
Who can tell the difference clearly?
Most of the people in the surrounding villages and towns thought they were their own people marching overnight.
If there is moonlight, you can see the road clearly.
Perhaps the light cavalry behind will be separated from a distance to catch a small path to inform the garrison along the way.
It is normal to gather a group of people again and ambush Chen Lin for an ambush.
But if they don’t light a torch, who dares to gallop?
The group ran for more than forty miles.
Liang Zhi suddenly pointed to a flat land near the river.
"Sir, there is a fence!"
"You see, thousands of acres of land are not chunks of crop fields at all."
Horse farm!
Everyone thought of it together.
This place is very close to Huanglong River.
Although the land is fertile, few ordinary people are willing to come and farm.
If the navy troops of the Great Zhou came ashore and attacked, how could they escape?
It’s different for wealthy families to build a horse farm.
First of all, they have their own escort power.
Ordinary grooms can practice riding and shooting.
Secondly, when naval troops attacked, the proportion of cavalry was pitifully small.
There are mounts in the horse farm.
He was running fast with the animals.
Therefore, in Linjiang area, it is good to open a horse farm.
Wu Qi clapped his hands and immediately smiled and said with a slight smile.
"I took it for free."
