Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 649 Chess Game

In an instant, the two teams of men and horses reached a point.

The soldiers of the Western Turks had been burrowing in the dense forest for a long time, but they could not find a single figure. It seemed that they had been played for a long time. They were already holding their breath. At this time, all their anger was released on the group of people who were preparing to ambush them. The horse galloped towards the opponent, directly into the enemy group, and then waved the scimitar in his hand to kill desperately in the crowd.

For a moment, flesh and blood flew everywhere, screaming again and again.

The group of people seemed not to have expected that they would get out of the dense forest so quickly. Although they were in an ambush, they did not get the upper hand at all. Moreover, the opponent had few cavalry and many infantry. The Turkic cavalry's charge caused these infantry to suffer a lot of losses.

However, the other side was not completely powerless to fight back. After being chopped down, some soldiers also rose up to resist, waving their swords to chop at the hoofs of the cavalry. After a few blows, these horses could not hold up and let out shrill screams. He fell to the ground with a neighing sound, and the surrounding soldiers immediately swarmed forward and chopped the fallen Turkic soldier into a pulp with his sword.

Several other groups of people followed suit, and just like that, the first batch of Turkic cavalry was swallowed up in the crowd.

At the mouth of the two mountains, more soldiers ran out quickly after hearing about the battle ahead. These infantry were well-trained and immediately formed a formation, holding heavy shields in their hands on the other side of the grassland. One end opened up the formation, and the spears shone with cold light, stretching out from the gaps in the shield, like iron armor with spikes, slowly advancing forward with heavy footsteps.

Seeing this situation, the group of Turkic cavalry behind them could no longer rush forward at will, and they all slowed down.

But at this moment, another piercing scream sounded from behind the shield array.

Everyone was startled and hurriedly raised their heads, only to see countless arrows flying in the sky, dense as rain, flying towards them.

"careful!"

"Quickly open!"

These Turkic soldiers had suffered this loss on the pasture just now. Unexpectedly, when they were facing each other at this time, the opponent would come up with this move again. Halfway through their charge, the arrow rain had already arrived, and there was another scream from the cavalry formation. There were screams, and one after another the Turkic soldiers were hit by arrows and fell from their horses.

As soon as they fell to the ground, the men and horses rolled over, and the cavalry who continued to charge behind them had no time to dodge. The horses' hooves immediately trampled these people until they were bloody and bloody, leaving no bones left!

Seeing this, the man following the wolf-faced prince suddenly turned pale.

They originally came to reinforce Taiyuan. Unexpectedly, they encountered a surprise attack on the way before arriving in Taiyuan. Although the group in front of them did not know where they came from, since they were wearing the same clothes as the archers who had just attacked them, and they were in The appearance here was obviously directed at them.

Seeing that he had been sneak attacked for a while and now suffered another loss, he immediately pulled out the scimitar in his hand and said, "Damn it, heavy armored cavalry!"

He gave the order, and there was a heavy sound of horse hooves behind him!
A group of majestic cavalry rushed out of the woods behind the woods.

Just now, in order to catch up with the archers, these light cavalry were the fastest, but this time the reinforcements in Taiyuan were not only light and agile light cavalry, the wolf-faced prince also brought a group of heavy armored cavalry.

These people were wearing heavy iron armor, and even the horses under them were wearing iron armor. Because they were too heavy, they ran the slowest and had just come out of the woods until this time. However, these heavy armored cavalry were the best at charging. To them, that kind of shield formation is just tofu in front of the sharp blade.

Seeing the heavy armored cavalry rushing out of the woods, the light cavalry around them who had suffered a loss were extremely excited and said with red eyes: "Kill them!"

"We cannot let our brother die in vain!"

"Today, we must let them all die here, no one can survive!"

Listening to these blood-curdling roars, everyone became furious and waved their swords. However, among them was a horseman who stood quietly on the slope, looking at the grassland below. bloody battle.

This person is the wolf-faced prince.

Most of his face was covered, and until now, he could not see any emotion or anger. However, when he saw the heavy armored cavalry rushing out of the woods, preparing to follow the man and charge down, his thin lips pursed hard. For a moment.

Then he said, "Wait a minute."

The people around him couldn't hear him because of their enthusiasm and anger, but the man beside him immediately turned his head: "Prince, what did you say?"

The wolf-faced prince said: "Something is wrong."

The man's eyes were red, also stained red by the bloody battle scene in front of him, and he immediately said: "Of course something is wrong, they ambushed us here. Fortunately, the prince insisted on bringing this group of heavy armored cavalry this time, otherwise we would really be here today." You will suffer a big loss!"

"..."

"Prince, don't hesitate any longer, our brothers have already suffered many casualties!"

When he said this, the wolf-faced prince seemed to have nothing to say. After all, the shield array in front was still advancing towards them. Some Turkic cavalry directly ran into it and were immediately pierced by the spears extending from behind the shield. , and was immediately swallowed up by the shield formation. The soldiers guarding behind the shield waved their swords, and blood spattered, forming a blood mist in the air.

At the same time, the flying arrows sharpened the wind, and the sharp whooshing sound blew through their eardrums, which was painful.

Indeed - it cannot be folded here.

The wolf-faced prince pursed his lips tightly and suddenly said: "Act according to the opportunity. If I ask you to withdraw your troops, you must retreat immediately!"

"retreat?"

The man was also stunned for a moment. The Turks had never retreated in a battle. What's more, there were heavy armored cavalry charging at the army formation in front of them with infantry as the main force and light cavalry as the supplement. There was no possibility of defeat. Why would they? Retreat?
Just when he hesitated, the wolf-faced prince said: "Promise me and you will kill the enemy for me!"

The man was full of killing the enemy, and besides, he really couldn't disobey the prince, so he responded: "Yes!"

The wolf-faced prince waved his hand.

He waved his hand, and the man accepted the order and shouted: "Come on!"

Following his order, the heavy armored cavalry immediately adjusted their ranks and rushed down the slope!
Heavy armored cavalry are different from light cavalry. The biggest difference is that they are huge. Each cavalryman is like an iron bull with copper skin and iron bones. This group of heavy armored cavalry rushed down, and even the whole ground was shaken. When they stood up, the shields that had been gathered tightly were also shaken at this time and collided with each other. The strong wind immediately passed through the gaps between the shields and blew onto the face of the soldier holding the shield like a collision.

They opened their eyes wide and watched the heavy armored cavalry in front of them galloping towards them with a force that shook the world.

These people panicked and hurriedly shouted: "Archers!"

"Quick, shoot them!"

However, a shower of arrows flew away, as if they had hit a copper wall. The clanking sound was endless, and the arrows fell down one by one, but they had no effect at all!

At this moment, the soldiers behind the shield array also panicked. Seeing that the opponent was about to rush in front of them, some of them subconsciously stepped back, shouting: "Run - ah!"

Without words, they turned into screams.

The heavy armored cavalry slammed into the already crumbling shield formation, like a heavy hammer, hitting the shield hard. The shield formation that was originally indestructible in front of the light cavalry was immediately smashed to pieces, and what followed was It was the terrified screams and exclamations after the shield formation was defeated.

Before the heavy hammer stopped, the heavy armored cavalry continued to move forward, stepping on the broken shields and the bodies of the screaming soldiers. Those soldiers who had just been protected by the shields were suddenly trampled under their feet, their skin and bones were broken, and blood was everywhere. Splashing, it turned into a pool of flesh and blood in an instant, moving forward with the horse's hooves, dyeing a large area of ​​grass red.

In an instant, the heavy armored cavalry opened a bloody path on the battlefield!
As soon as this bloody road was opened, the sight of the wolf-faced prince standing on the slope suddenly opened up. He saw at a glance that behind the panicked people and horses, there was a road coming out of the dumb mouth at the foot of the two mountains. A carriage!
There was actually a carriage in a team that was preparing to "ambush" them?
How is this going?

At this time, the men and horses on both sides had completely charged together and started fighting each other. During the fight, the Turks naturally held their breath and wanted to kill all the opponents; but this man and horse were obviously getting more and more frightened. Because they gradually identified the identity of the person they were fighting from the heavy armored cavalry and the opponent's jersey.

Someone shouted in the crowd: "Why do the Turks want to kill us!?"

"Aren't we an alliance?"

Upon hearing this, the wolf-faced prince's hand holding the reins shook violently.

He raised his head and looked ahead again, only to see the carriage stopped at the mute place, not daring to move forward any further, and some guards holding flags behind the carriage also began to retreat in panic, and were blown away by the wind. On the fluttering flag, there is a huge word "king"!

That is--

The wolf-faced prince suddenly said: "Ming Jin, withdraw your troops!" The soldiers around him were stunned. Some of them wanted to rush down. When they heard this, they immediately stopped and said in shock: "Prince, why? We have already -"

"Ming Jin, withdraw troops!"

The wolf-faced prince shouted harshly, and although the soldiers beside him couldn't see his expression, they could hear his anger at the moment from his voice, and they hurriedly struck the copper hammer.

Suddenly, a clear and harsh sound echoed throughout the pasture.

As soon as the heavy armored cavalry who were charging forward heard this sound, they stopped their formation. The man leading the team was in the middle of fighting, his head and face were stained red with blood. At this time, he heard Ming Jin's voice of withdrawing his troops, and he immediately frowned. : "What is this for?!"

Several soldiers guarding him hurriedly stepped forward: "Prince, let us retreat!"

"Why are you retreating at this time?"

"We're almost there!"

"But this is the prince's order!"

After their hesitation, the battlefield was still anxious. The cavalry rushed to the center of the battlefield and once again got entangled with the infantry who were still struggling to kill the enemy. The roars and screams almost drowned out the sound of the copper bell. .

The wolf-faced prince's thin lips had been pressed into a line, and the traces of his gritted teeth could be clearly seen on his thin cheeks. He commanded again: "Cry again!"

The soldier who struck the bronze hammer did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly struck hard.

The piercing sound of the copper cymbals spread across the entire pasture in an instant.

Not only did they hear it, but the people who were fighting with them also heard it. Those soldiers had been beaten by this group of heavy armored cavalry and were unable to fight back. Suddenly they heard that the other side was paying for their troops and retreated, which gave them a chance to breathe. , these people also hurriedly retreated.

When the Turkic soldiers who were rushing in front saw this, they could hardly suppress the ferocious temper in their blood and wanted to rush forward, but the harsh sound of ringing gold kept ringing behind them, urging them to return to the formation. .

A few hesitated and said, "Shall we withdraw?"

"It's better to retreat, the prince is urging you."

"Get out."

The man was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but at this time, both the other party and his own people had already begun to retreat. He had no choice but to sigh, push the reins, turn the horse's head, and prepare to go back. :"withdraw!"

But just when the men and horses on both sides were about to retreat, suddenly, a sound louder than that of Ming Jin's retreating troops sounded from the woods behind the wolf-faced prince. It was like muffled thunder, shaking the whole forest and began to tremble. , a hurricane suddenly passed through the forest land, the leaves rustled, and the people and horses standing on the slope began to shake!

That voice was—

The wolf-faced prince hurriedly turned around, only to see that the dense woods that he had just passed through were swaying even more at this moment, and the loud noises that were more deafening than the previous ones stirred up invisible waves, shaking the horses under him. He began to move uneasily.

boom!boom!boom!
These three sounds are drum sounds!
They were shouting gold to withdraw their troops, but behind them, someone was beating drums to send out troops!

The wolf-faced prince and his soldiers were astonished. At this time, the loud rumbling sound had startled the horses under them to start shaking uneasily. Some even flew directly down the slope, and just as they were When there was movement, suddenly, countless cold stars shot out from the woods!

It's an arrow!

It was the rain of arrows that had just attacked them!

In an instant, several more soldiers fell to the ground after being hit by arrows. The wolf-faced prince realized something was wrong and hurriedly shouted: "Get down! Get down quickly!"

Everyone had been frightened by the sound of drums behind them and almost lost control of their mounts. After hearing his instructions, everyone hurriedly rode down, and then got rid of the arrows that were shot over their heads and ears.

They ran down the slope and looked back in panic. They saw a large group of people suddenly rushing out of the dense forest. Like rolling waves, they crashed through the forest and pushed them away. Down the slope!
These people are all wearing yellow clothes.

However, there was a group of men and horses among them, carrying quivers and holding long bows. They were shooting arrows at them while flying out of the woods. They were wearing the same clothes as the group of soldiers who had just walked out of the pass at the foot of the two mountains opposite. Yes, dark blue clothes!
This is--

The wolf-faced prince pursed his lips into a tight line, but did not make any sound. Instead, a sharp gaze shot out from behind the mask, passing by the group of men and horses that suddenly came out. Suddenly, he fell on one of the riders. On the bodies of men and horses.

The man was dressed in white, and although he was wearing armor, he had an elegant and elegant temperament.

And when he walked to the slope and looked down at the panicked crowd in front of him, a faint smile flashed in his clear eyes, as if he was watching the chess game he had arranged take shape, with a satisfied smile.

At this moment, the wolf-faced prince immediately understood——

All of this is this person's chess game!

Just now, they were attacked on the grassland and were attacked by archers hiding in the woods. It was this person who arranged it. He made his men wear dark blue clothes, which not only made it easier for the archers to hide in the fir woods. , to deceive them even more; then, these archers immediately retreated after a sneak attack, and the Turkic soldiers naturally refused to give up and followed them into the woods.

But he still failed to catch them.

If he guessed correctly, this group of people should have dug deep trenches on both sides of Shunli, or they might simply be hiding in the ditches on both sides of the woods, because only in this way can they hide so many people. The large number of men and horses also caused the group of archers who attacked them to hide quickly.

And their group of Turkic soldiers, in their anger after being attacked, did not bother to distinguish between them, and directly chased them out of the woods.

Then, just in time, he met the other group of people walking towards them.

Of course, it's not really that precise.

This should be because the opponent had already calculated the time. When they rushed out of the woods, this group of people happened to walk out of the pass at the foot of the two mountains, making them think that the opponent was ambushing them here.

Although the wolf-faced prince also sensed something was wrong and hesitated before going into battle, at that moment, an arrow appeared and hit the opponent's men.

The other party came out from the middle of the two mountains. They had no idea about the situation ahead. Suddenly they were hit by an arrow. Naturally, they thought it was them. Therefore, the men and horses on both sides were provoked to a fight and rushed to one place. .

But when they reached this point in the battle, both sides were injured, but they also realized that something was wrong, and when they were about to withdraw their troops, this group of people appeared!

Good plan!
Such a poisonous strategy!
The wolf-faced prince looked back at the elegant, cloud-like figure riding a horse on the hillside. The man's face was calm, as if everything in front of him could not be contaminated by him outside the world of mortals, but——

I don't know if it was an illusion, but those eyes that originally looked pure and clear had a strange, boiling flicker because they reflected this sea of ​​​​blood and corpses.

Then, he gently raised his hand.

The cavalry following him had all rushed out of the woods at this time, and had assembled on the slope. The formation was exactly the one ready to charge!

At this time, the Turkic soldiers who had just experienced a bloody fight were also a little panicked.

Someone shouted: "Prince, what should we do!?"

Fortunately, because the wolf-faced prince had withdrawn his troops in time, their troops had gathered together and were not trapped in the fierce battle ahead. But now, having been chasing for more than half an hour and fighting again, they were indeed There is no energy left to fight anymore.

Just when everyone was looking at the prince eagerly, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed to a path east of the pasture——

"withdraw!"
