Chapter 1357

It's just that Li Jing himself is not a fool, he is even more of a military giant. Knowing that Hou Yi planned to plot against him, he naturally wouldn't ask the large army to rush out.

"There's something wrong with this." Hou Yi ran for a while, reined in his horse, and said that a lot of time had passed since the beginning, but thousands of Shu troops came out of the forest to meet the enemy, and they all paid great attention to themselves and The distance of the woods behind.

When the Qin army attacked, they retreated, and then faced back against the woods; when the Qin army retreated, they began to chase forward, but the attack distance was kept within one degree, and the Qin army cavalrymen were never given any chance to strangle.

Li Bai also frowned: "Li Jing definitely didn't expect that there were war horses in our army, but we also didn't expect that this barbaric land has so much vegetation and the terrain is also very rugged, it's not suitable for war horses to charge and kill the enemy at all."

"Vegetation—" Hou Yi was overjoyed suddenly, pointing to the forest in the distance and laughingly said: "Send the order to crush the infantry of the Shu Kingdom to the back, and then set fire to the forest with rockets. Now I will see what Li Jing does." Escape from birth!"

"Second truth is a clever plan!" Li Bai jumped on his horse, drew his sword and pointed at the woods in front of him, and said with a big laugh, "The general is pressing the formation, and a certain leader went forward to set fire."

Before Zi Houyi could respond to him, Li Bai had already charged forward on his horse, shouting loudly: "Repel the Shu army, the archers are ready to fire rockets!"

"Prepare to launch rockets!" The army commander roared angrily, and then the centurion commander to ten commanders all shouted loudly.

Li Bai led two hundred soldiers, went straight up from one side to dry firewood, and then ignited piles of flames, the cavalry scattered like dragons, and the two thousand cavalry in front still set up arrow arrays, covering the sky and the sun The rain of arrows attacked the Shu army frantically, and suppressed the Shu army in one fell swoop.

The one behind started to ignite the arrow, and charged forward with his horse.

Arrows are the most indispensable thing in cavalry troops. The left and right sides of the horse's buttocks are all dragging arrows, and the chests and backs of the knights on horseback are all hung with arrow pots.

When Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms, there was no such thing as a stirrup, so the most powerful cavalry on horseback lies in archery, not in foot combat. The Six Eastern Kingdoms were under the terrifying arrow rain of Qin destroy.

Although there are only [-] cavalry today, the power to sweep the world is not weak at all.

"General, the Qin army is about to attack with fire." The staff member smiled triumphantly, because he told Li Jing just now that the Qin army will definitely attack with fire, trying to burn his [-] troops to death.

Li Jing sneered: "It's just a trick, but I don't know that once they set fire, the fire will become a natural 'wall of fire' separating them from our army."

Li Jing looked sideways and said with a sneer: "The leader of the army is Hou Yi. This man's archery skills are so advanced that he can shoot hundreds of steps to kill the enemy general. retreat!"

"Ding Ding Ding!"

The sound of ringing gold echoed in the jungle, and the warriors who were desperately resisting in front retreated abruptly.

Li Bai shouted and shot the rocket, and the arrows flew down into the jungle like a rain of meteors.

Immediately it burned like a raging fire.

Li Jing's army began to retreat at full speed, felled trees, and filled the ravine; although there was a big fire in the jungle, the wind was indeed blowing from northwest to southeast. Hou Yi and the others retreated for ten miles, watching from a distance that the fire that was also soaring into the sky gradually spread, cutting off the attacking route of themselves and others!
At this time, Li Jing had already arrived at a high mountain. Looking at the Qin army's formation tens of miles away, he laughed wildly triumphantly: "This commander still wants to lure Houyi to lead the army into the jungle, and then set fire to it." Burning him to death, I never thought that the thief was extremely cautious, and he was not fooled; but in the end it was still a bad move."

Yan Liang, whose face was blackened by smoke, led his men to catch up with Li Jing, cupped his hands and said, "The last general has already set up a horse pit on the road, and the five thousand cavalrymen will definitely be destroyed if they are caught off guard."

There are many kinds of horse traps. The horse trap that Li Jing asked Yan Liang to open is only as deep as a human's knee, and the size is about the size of a human head. In this way, when a war horse gallops past, one of the four legs suddenly sinks into the ground. In such a narrow pit, the horse's leg would be twisted instantly, and the knight on the horse would be caught off guard and would be thrown directly from the horse's back. In his eyes, his head might fall to the ground, and his neck would be broken in an instant.

If Li Jing had enough time, he would set up antlers, thorns and other things as roadblocks. In this complex mountainous terrain, the speed of Hou Yi's army's pursuit would be slowed down to an unfathomable extent.

The production of antlers takes time, but the thorns do not take any time at all. Soldiers in iron armor can directly hold their swords, cut down thorns with a few strokes, and then throw them on the road they walked.

When Qin Jun chased up, if he was riding a horse, the hoof of the horse would be stabbed, and if the person walked, the cry would be pierced by thorns; Naturally, it was born accordingly, but with the horseshoe, there is no guarantee that the horse will not be stabbed by the road full of thorns and thorns.

It was simply the best material that nature gave Li Jing.

Hou Yi's face was extremely black, he thought of setting fire only in a fit of anger, but who knew that the heavens are not good, and besides, the Shu army was not besieged on a certain mountain, the plan of burning became an obstacle instead. Obstacles to the advance of one's own army.

Li Bai also looked embarrassed, he never expected such a thing to happen.

"After the fire is extinguished, our army can continue to pursue." Li Bai said.

Hou Yi nodded and ordered: "Order the whole army to rest without taking off their armor and saddles. After the fire has passed, continue to pursue and not give Li Jing's army a moment of stability."

"Here!"

Warriors don't care too much about Shangguan's mistakes, and they won't hold on to them. This place belongs to the Indochina Peninsula and is rich in various resources. The tired horses and knights got a period of rest. The fire only lasted overnight. It has stopped.

Hou Yi and Li Bai continued to lead the army forward. This time, they had not gone very far when the horses of the former army suddenly collapsed strangely.

Li Bai thought it was Li Jing's army setting up an ambush, and the knights of the front army were shot in the back, and immediately suppressed their marching speed, but heard the report from the warriors in front, saying that they found many shallow pits the size of human heads on the road, and there were already more than ten A horse's front hoof was broken.
