"The bandits are powerful, retreat!"

Xu Chu saw two cavalrymen operating, roared and prepared to retreat.

He ignored the flying bear army that was coming in detour, but directly led his cavalry to rush towards the Xiliang cavalry who were blocking them.

Xu Chu led his troops to shoot spears with arrows. Before the Western Liang cavalry could stand firm, they were penetrated by the Han army.

"The thief army is afraid to escape! Chase!"

Dong Yue roared and ordered the Feixiong Army and the Xiliang cavalry to pursue it.

Zhang Ji had this intention too! He ordered the infantry to move forward and the cavalry to pursue.

"Uncle, don't chase the enemy, and prevent fraud."

Zhang Xiu reminded Zhang Ji.

"If we don't defeat Liu Fan, we can't survive! Why not give it a try?"

Zhang Ji was impatient and refused to listen to advice. It was because Dong Zhuo gave them the death order.

Xu Chu led his cavalry to run wildly in front, turning back and shooting from time to time.

The 20,000 Xiliang cavalry in the rear chased each other reluctantly.

In order to make the generals of Xiliang fool, Xu Chu ordered some soldiers to throw away their helmets and weapons, as if they were escaping their lives regardless of everything.

Seeing this, Zhang Ji and Dong Yue even thought that Xu Chu was afraid of the army and ordered a speed up pursuit.

The army stepped through the uninvited fields and came to the avenue in the middle of Hutou Mountain.

Here weeds are missing the horse's legs and dead leaves are piled up.

The peaks on both sides are not steep, they can only be considered one high slope, but the trees on the mountain are crowded.

Five thousand cavalry rushed straight to the end of the valley. At the back, the Xiliang cavalry was getting closer and closer to Xu Chu, only 200 steps.

"Don't come in every valley! Please give me a clear guide!"

Zhang Xiu persuaded Zhang Ji again.

"What did you say? Did you let all our previous efforts be wasted?"

Before Zhang Ji could speak, Dong Yue didn't listen and jumped into the valley.

"Don't you don't know about Mr. Dong's ruthlessness? Only by using bold troops can you survive in danger, and we can be safe. Go and receive the infantry! Stop following me."

Zhang Ji ordered Zhang Xiu.

After saying that, he also rode his horse into the valley.

Only Zhang Xiu stayed there.

The two mountains are opposite each other, more than ten miles long. This is not exactly a canyon, because the two mountains are particularly wide, and the widest place is one mile.

This is also the reason why there are so many people coming and going and overgrown weeds.

When Xu Chu led the cavalry to the end, he ordered the horse to be stopped.

The soldiers were all on the strings and shot at the Western Liang cavalry.

Zhang Ji and Dong Yue ignored the fact that the man was overturned, causing the iron-armored Feixiong Army to raid arrows and clashed.

As long as it can collide with the enemy, it is worth it even if it loses some people.

At this moment, the cavalry led by Xu Chu suddenly retreated.

At the same time, countless infantry emerged from the cracks between the cavalry, some holding large shields, and some holding three-meter-long spears.

Gradually, all the cavalry in front of Xiliang were replaced by infantry.

The shield wall stands up layer by layer. The most terrifying thing is not the shield wall, but the spear in front of the shield wall.

The spear penetrates through the gap between the shield and the shield, embellishing the shield like a hedgehog.

"not good!"

Zhang Ji quickly pulled his horse, and the flying bear army, which were only dozens of steps away from the shield wall, stopped one after another.

Suddenly, a flag was raised high above the hillside.

Countless figures poked their heads out from the hillside.

"I've fallen into a trap, the rear army will become the front army, retreat quickly!"

Everyone was shocked, and Zhang Ji ordered.

To the west of Hutou Valley, Zhang Xiu was about to go back to meet with the infantry. The rumbling sound of horse hooves was deafening.

There are thousands of cavalry on the north and south sides, all running towards the entrance of Hutou Valley.

Zhang Xiu knew that he had fallen into the trap!

He wanted to inform Zhang Ji, but reason told him that once he entered Hutou Mountain, he would be trapped.

Zhang Ji is Zhang Xiu's only relative. Zhang Xiu knew that the only way now is to attract infantry to come and cooperate with each other to rescue Zhang Ji.

"Uncle, hold on!"

Zhang Xiu carried his gun and rode his horse, and ran towards the location of the infantry.

Two cavalry under Liu Fan's command converge.

The cavalry and infantry dismounted, like the east, blocked the entrance to Hutou Valley tightly.

Above the valley, soldiers set their bows and arrows, and the rockets were ignited. In the first round, thousands of rockets were thrown into the valley, like rain of fire.

After the rockets were over, countless large fireballs rolled down from the mountains on both sides.

Fireballs are made of thorns, and they are filled with flammable substances and are difficult to extinguish.

The dead grass was about to touch, and because there were too many rockets, the entire canyon was ignited in just a moment.

The cavalry of Xiliang were scattered by smoke and fire, and they were rushing around in the canyon, panic.

"So what if the valley entrance is blocked? If we don't attack the enemy's iron walls and spear forests, we will be burned to death. Cough cough! There is a glimmer of hope for conflict. Otherwise, we will sit and wait for death."

Zhang Ji avoided the place where the fire was the largest and shouted to his subordinates.

Even so, he couldn't open his eyes by the thick smoke, and covered his mouth and coughed loudly.

However, Zhang Ji's words attracted many people's attention.

Many Western Liang cavalry seized this glimmer of hope and rushed towards the shield wall.

But what Liu Fan prepared was not just a shield wall.

Although the wall of spears seems to be very deterrent, it can at most resist the full-strength impact of the Xiliang cavalry at a time.

What Liu Fan was truly confident that he could block the Xiliang cavalry were the strong crossbows and bows behind the shield wall.

The Xiliang cavalry had less than a hundred steps to attack, and the crossbowman began to fire powerful crossbows.

After a powerful crossbow, there are bows and arrows, and the arrows are like rain, and they will fall.

Most of the Western Liang cavalry died under the dense rain of arrows before they rushed over.

Each time I rushed over, there were only dozens of riders, which could not cause any impact on the shield wall.

On both sides of the mountains, soldiers kept shooting rockets into the valley.

Gradually, more and more Xiliang people were burned to death, and many of them were smoked to death.

At first, I could hear Zhang Ji, but Dong Yue's voice was shouting, but in the end, I could not hear anything.

There were only wailing sounds of shouting at the sky and the earth, and the thick smoke rolled, rushing thousands of feet.

Zhang Xiu turned around and clenched the reins with his hands, and tears flowed.

The most violent fire attack method among military tactics is as long as it has the five factors of fire attack, once it is used, ten deaths will be gone.

Zhang Xiu was very hesitant at this time. There were still 20,000 to 30,000 infantry soldiers. What should he do?

Liu Fan stood on the hill and watched the battle that was about to end.

The flames were beating bigger and bigger, and the cavalry in Xiliang were no longer likely to survive.

"Chief Yun led 10,000 cavalry and Yinshan Iron Cavalry to pursue the Xiliang infantry. He used the cavalry's maneuver and the advantages of bows and arrows to disturb them. But when the enemy was exhausted, he used heavy cavalry to destroy them."

Liu Fan ordered Guan Yu.

On this plain, infantry without special training is not the opponent of the cavalry at all.

"promise!"

Guan Yu clasped his fists and ordered.

In the formation of the Xiliang infantry, Zhang Xiu came back and said that Zhang Ji, Dong Yue and others were besieged and asked for reinforcements.

At first, the soldiers of Xiliang also wanted to reinforce, but as Hutou Mountain was getting closer, the generals of Xiliang retreated in the face of battle.

As Zhang Xiu said, Zhang Ji and Dong Yue were besieged in the mountains, the flames soaring into the sky would probably not be able to survive anymore.
