Chapter 1970 Ma Mingfeng Xiaoxiao
The Hexi Corridor is a narrow and narrow area that spreads from the northeast of Xishan Road. Since most of it is located in Hexi, it is called the Hexi Corridor.
The two mountains are like pliers, sandwiching the Hexi Corridor in the middle. The two mountains are actually not high, but they are continuous and have been spreading eastward in Hexi. The narrow tunnels of sixty or seventy miles are not easy to walk on, and the mountains on both sides are conducive to ambushing. Therefore, the Hexi Corridor has always been a major military road. There are three temporary checkpoints in less than a hundred miles of corridors. However, after the Northwest Army sent troops, the three checkpoints were easily broken. Dingwu thought about mobilizing troops to use the geographical advantages of the Hexi Corridor to block the Northwest Army's attack. It was just that the sudden rebellion of the Yi barbarians made the plan unable to be implemented. The weak defense of the Hexi Corridor naturally could not play any blocking role under the powerful force of the Northwest Army.
After the two mountains spread in parallel for dozens of miles, the mountains in the south began to fall downwards until they finally disappeared completely. However, the mountains in the north continued to spread eastward, spreading less than twenty miles away, and a gap of about ten miles long appeared in the middle. After that, there was another mountain that was about ten miles long, just like a giant axe of the gods splitting a mountain range from it. The two mountains were unable to connect because of the gap of more than ten miles, and geographically they became two mountains.
The mountains are undulating, dozens of miles eastward, but the mountains suddenly forked, separated left and right like the tentacles of a snail, stretching for more than ten miles each. A valley is formed between the two forked mountains. If viewed from the terrain, it is like a giant dragon crawling on the ground and opening its mouth. Therefore, this mountain range is called Panlong Mountain, and it has actually left the Hexi Corridor.
The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Northwest Army were stationed in the valley at the foot of Panlong Mountain, which is in what people often call Dragon's mouth.
The troops stationed here are because there is a huge lake just ten miles south, which is a freshwater lake that can be used to supply water for soldiers.
Camping along the mountain, the camping tents are arranged in an orderly manner.
After several days of heavy snow, the snow on the earth was already quite deep. The east was slightly white and the heavy snow had stopped. Looking around, the earth was snow-white, quite dazzling.
Ibrahimovic's tens of thousands of cavalry were close to Panlong Mountain at this time, and they could already see Panlong Mountain shrouded in heavy snow.
The climate is cold, but Ibrahimovic's blood is hot.
He had never commanded so many troops, nor did he expect that he would have the opportunity to compete with the Northwest Army again to save his shame the day before.
Although this place is not a grassland, Ibrahimovic has enough confidence to defeat the Northwest Army in the field. The Northwest Army without cavalry is like a tiger without teeth and a wolf without sharp claws, which is vulnerable.
Although he was defeated in the previous battle, Ibrahimovic did not think that it was because the Yi barbarian cavalry was not as good as the Northwest Army. He always believed that the biggest reason for Qiu Fengyuan's defeat was that An Lei left the battle, which led to the out of control of the entire battle. After the war, he thought countless times that if An Lei and Van Persie were acting according to the original plan, the Northwest Army would have already rolled back to the Northwest, and even Chu Huan's head had already been picked on the sabre.
The attack on Wuping Prefecture City has been slow, and Ibrahimovic only felt that it was because the defenders of Wuping Prefecture City were extremely determined to resist, and because the Yi barbarian cavalry were indeed not good at attacking battles, but in terms of field battles, they were definitely experts.
Today is different, Ibrahimovic only feels that his strength is far above Qiufengyuan, not only in terms of military strength, but also in morale. The Battle of Qiufengyuan was just a servant fight for Qin, but now he fights for his own tribe.
Chu Huan blocked the Yi Barbarian Army from plundering in the Central Plains. Of course, such people deserved to die. Although such people are full of tricks, their tricks do not mean any strength.
In the hearts of the Yi barbarians, they do not plan in their strength, so in the hearts of the Yi barbarians, the battle is decided, and the outcome is decided.
With a passionate and fierce spirit, tens of thousands of barbarian cavalry can be said to be full of murderous intent.
Chu Huan was at the mountainside at this time, facing the morning light, looking coldly at the dark Yiman Iron Cavalry in the distance. When the black line appeared in the horizon, Chu Huan sneered on his lips.
The already cold morning breeze is now filled with a bitter murderous aura.
Within the dragon mouth, the camp tents were like clouds, spreading out of the dragon mouth, and it was deserted.
Ibrahimovic immediately raised his whip. He led the barbarian cavalry to travel day and night, but only took a break last night to replenish the physical strength and energy of the people. Moreover, before dawn, he led the resting soldiers and horses to rush towards him like wolves and tigers.
He was caught off guard by the Northwest Army, and the faster the march, the better. However, in winter, and moving forward in the snow, the consumption of physical strength is very huge. The strong and strong Yi Barbarians may still be able to barely support them, but the war horses cannot be consumed forever.
Ibrahimovic saw that although the camp in the distance was full of camps, there was no sound. He was slightly happy, but his lips were already sneered. Perhaps when the barbarians rushed into the camp of the Northwest Army, they still didn't know whose sabre was looking at their necks, right?
The cavalry in the northwest went to the grassland. When the Yi barbarians thought that the people in the northwest were rushing around the grassland, they felt indignant. At this time, they saw that the Northwest Army camp was already holding swords in their hands. They rushed over to the death with Ibrahimovic order.
For most Yi barbarian cavalry, they did not participate in the Battle of Qiufengyuan, nor did they fight with the Northwest Army. After they entered the Central Plains, they burned and killed along the way. Under their swords, the people in the Central Plains were like harvested rice and sabers passing by, and the people were everywhere. The barbarian cavalry liked that feeling very much.
"There are cavalry!" Ibrahimovic was about to order an attack, but someone suddenly called out next to him. Ibrahimovic was startled at first, but then he saw more than ten rangers coming out not far away. He was relieved. Although the cavalry in the northwest had all gone to the grassland, it was natural to leave a small number of cavalry as scouts.
The barbarians were not as stupid as stupid people. When Ibrahimovic led his troops, he thought of the existence of the Northwest Rangers. He was caught off guard by the Northwest Rangers. Of course, he did not want to be found by the Northwest Rangers in advance. There were only tens of thousands of barbarian cavalry. Even if he wanted to be silent due to the wind and snow weather, it would be absolutely impossible to do it.
Fortunately, it was precisely because of the wind and snowy weather that Ibrahimovic felt that the Northwest Ranger was too far away from the camp in this weather. Because of this, when he was resting last night, he chose a place far away from Panlong Mountain, hoping not to be explored by the Northwest Army. Now, seeing the rangers appearing in front of him, I felt excited and thought to myself that the Northwest Games seemed to be not too far from the camp.
The dozen rangers naturally discovered the black barbarian cavalry and turned around and headed towards the camp.
"Catch them." Ibrahimovic said in a deep voice. A barbarian general in front had already roared, and followed with hundreds of cavalrymen.
The Yi barbarian soldiers are strong and strong, and they run wildly like tides. They also use this tide-like ferocity to stimulate the potential of horses. If we talk about the method of controlling horses, there are really not many people in the world who are more familiar with the Yi barbarians.
The dozens of cavalry were originally quite a distance away from the Yi barbarians, but the tornado-like charge of the Yi barbarians seemed to shock the rangers. The horse speed sometimes depends on the cavalry's horse control skills. The rangers were shocked and their speed was slow. The barbarians who rushed in the front had already brought the distance closer. Both sides could even see the other's faces. Then the several cavalry woke up and rode their horses and ran wildly.
The rangers rode their horses and were getting faster and faster, getting closer and closer to the Northwest Army camp. The barbarians chasing them hoped to use sabers to cut off the heads of these rangers. Compared to shooting the enemy with bows and arrows, they enjoyed the feeling of sabers cutting into the enemy's flesh and blood. However, they were also very clear that they were facing the regular Northwest Army at this time, not ordinary people. They were facing battles now, rather than massacres.
The longbow was raised, and the general shouted in a deep voice: "Shoot the arrow!"
The horses were constantly running, and hundreds of cavalry were scrambling to form a long arc formation, all of which were bent bows and arrows, aiming at the dozen rangers.
Everyone hopes to show their faces at the beginning of the battle.
They wanted to shoot these dozen rangers into hedgehogs to give the Northwest Army a warning.
There was no movement in the northwest military camp. The barbarians had already pulled the bowstrings and were about to shoot arrows. At this moment, a sad neighing sound of horses suddenly came, and dozens of barbarian cavalry flew out of thin air.
When the barbarian general rushed out, he saw the barbarian cavalry following him like a ghost. The horse stumbled and flew out in the air. The barbarian general was shocked and looked at the ground in mid-air. Then he found that a deep trench appeared on the ground that was originally covered with snow. The Yi barbarians' war horses were not prepared. How could they not fall when they stepped on it?
How could there be a trench here? How could the dozen northwest rangers rushed over just now, and they were safe and sound?
The general couldn't figure it out and had no chance to think about it anymore, because after he fell, the ground collapsed. Not only was there a trench, but there were countless large pits under the snow. The pit was covered with sharpened wood. When he fell to it, a pointed wood was inserted from his chest to his back without any obstacle, bringing out a bloody rain.
The barbarian general's eyes burst and died with his eyes closed.
Hundreds of barbarians were in chaos. They had just rushed to rush. At this time, it was too late to hang the ditch and slam the horse. Those who jumped from the trench immediately fell into the pit full of spikes. Those who couldn't jump were in the trench. The treatment of the trench and the big pit was not distinguished. They were all stuck in the sharp wood. If they fell into it, they would be lucky.
There were only a few less than a hundred riders who barely held the war horses. Seeing the scene in front of them, each of them looked pale and their whole bodies were cold.
The northwest military camp was still silent, terrifyingly quiet. The Yi barbarians held their horses and their original aura was suddenly cut off. Chu Huan was still on the hillside of Panlong Mountain at this time, looking at the people at the foot of the mountain and smiling indifferently.
