Chapter 290 – Xu Shu’s Strategem (4) (1/2)
Xu Shu’s Strategehts of death The two thousand troops he brought with hihtered by others They did not even have the chance to resist Heavy cavalries were ht infantries There was even once in the Song Dynasty where five thousand heavy cavalries crushed an army of two hundred thousand
Heavy cavalries do not only rely on their armors but also on the sharpness of their swords Another reason was that heavy cavalries could easily cause fear Now, the two hundred cavalry has turned into a nightmare for the infantries
“Kill! Kill! Kill!” The two hundred cavalries pierced through Liao Hua’s Army like a sharp knife Two thousand of Liao Hua’s troops fell within the first hter when infantries fight against cavalries
“Ah!” Someone finally collapsed They now bla them to run more slowly Because they were slow, they were killed The ones that were killed were the happy ones Soed away by the cavalry They were then tra broken
“Kill! Kill! Kill!” There were also those audacious few that did not fear death They pulled out their swords and charged towards the cavalry They wanted to live and thus, fought desperately One soldier froritted his teeth He slashed at one of the areted the rib area Once he ed to cut it, he would have also cut down the bones and internal organs However, he was soon stunned because instead of cutting the bones, there was only a series of sparks on the armor Impossible! How can this be?
That soldier was unable to believe it However, he no longer needs to think about it This is because the that armored cavalry already chopped off his head Without a head, there would be no thoughts or fear What else was he able to think of?
The s to cut down the soldiers as it was evident that it was not easy to cut through that ar the horses However, the cavalry placestheir horses as opposed to protecting theive others the chance to attack their horses? That hy those that tried to attack the horse suffer worse fates than those attacking the soldiers riding it The ones that attacked the horses were all trampled to death
“Detestable!” Liao Hua felt evenas his opponents were too powerful His own elites were chopped down like vegetables Liao Hua felt hatred If he had known, he would have been more prepared The heavy cavalry would also not be able to slaughter theht This was a general’s instinct He felt as though he was stared at by soht Liao Hua looked at the person staring and found Zhao Long Zhao Long looked at everyone and sneered when he found Liao Hua
“This is bad!” Liao Hua also knew that he was facing a crisis So, he hurried his bodyguards stand in front of hiuards were not of much use If they were White Eared soldiers, they may have been able to withstand the heavy attacks of the heavy cavalry Unfortunately, they were only Yuzhou Yellow Turbans They were only ordinary light infantries and were easily overturned by the cavalry
“Trying to rob our Xiliang Cavalry’s things? Yourushed over and roared
“Xiliang Cavalry!” Liao Hua gritted his teeth hard He never expected the Xiliang Cavalry to only be friendly on the surface The man had praised Liao Hua and invited hi
“These barbarians! These shameless people!” Liao Hua shouted in his heart as his feet continued to display his skill Running Fortunately, Liao Hua was a Yellow Turban, ere experts in running They were chased often by officers and soldiers Those that were slow have already perished
Besides that, Liao Hua’s uards did not run away like him Instead, they advanced towards the heavy cavalry, so that theirInteresting!” Zhao Long looked aduards that sacrificed themselves for Liao Hua Their loyalty was truly ad If both sides were not hostile, he would really not want to kill the would not showknew the difference between sy
Even the soldiers were not afraid of death and charged in front, they were still light infantries that are unable to stop heavy cavalries On top of that, Zhao Long’s heavy cavalry was not an ordinary armored cavalry Not only do they have a connection with the Wolf Cavalry They were also related to the White Horse
If Zhao Long took this seriously, Liao Hua would not be able to escape Zhao Long could coht to Liao Hua, killing him in one swoop However, he deliberately slon The others also slowed down
Liao Hua must not be killed If he was killed, there would be no one to identify thees!” There were sost Liao Hua’s men He knew that infantries could only choose to perish when fighting against heavy cavalries However, if the heavy cavalry slon, they would have a path to escape The best thing to do would be to use the transport carriages If they hide behind the carriages, they would be able to find a way out
At that critical juncture with their lives threatened, Liao Hua’s Arth They had no choice as the only other alternative was death They quickly surrounded thee before they could finally take a breather
“Everyone, hold out! Our reinforcements are behind us Leader Liu Pi would arrive soon Everyone must hold out!” Liao Hua shouted at his own soldiers
However, Liao Hua still felt anxious Why are they not here yet? Aren’t they supposed to be here thirtyhas it been? If they do not appear soon, it is possible that wewas also anxious like Liao Hua He wanted Liao Hua’s reinforcements to arrive This is because two thousandfelt helpless because if they kept killing, Liao Hua would be finished, causing the strategy to fail He could not continue to kill
The carriages ainst an ordinary cavalry but was actually worthless against heavy cavalries At worst, they would just ra Cavalry’ was very skilled and could just jue
However, in order to wait for Liao Hua’s reinforcees He gave a worried expression and shouted, “Bandit Liao Hua If you have the ability, co You even attack friendly forces Wait and see I want to see how General Yang Wu punishes you when, I, Liao Hua expose you to the Left General and say that you attack friendly forces forand the Xiliang Cavalry seeeneral let!” The deputy fro Cavalry’ opened his“Don’t talk so much nonsense!”
“Yes Yes Yes!” The deputy beaten by Zhao Long did not resist In fact, he even looked like he was coeneral? Liao Hua looked into their eyes and was shocked The ht, the more afraid and bewitched
He had no choice but to think After all, even if they were friendly forces that had a falling out, it would not be right now It would have been better for it to happen after Shou Chun has fallen However, the two hundred Xiliang Cavalry had now killed so edy Only a few hundred of Liao Hua’s men remained The others were already dead
“Liao Hua Did you really think I cannot enter?” Zhao Long looked at the edge of the forest as though he saw soain “Let me tell you You better not think that any one of you can escape Those that heard the secret better stay here Brothers Kill the shouted at his subordinates
“Yes!” The soldiers echoed in concert “The Xiliang Cavalry is ready for another assault” Their horses sped up The earth began to shake again Liao Hua’s heart tightened Can these carriages really stop theive up hope This is because his carriage formation had three layers Liao Hua was at the last one When the Xiliang Cavalry reached the first one, there was no collision Instead, all of thees were just like decorations AtCavalry would just need to jump another two more times and Liao Hua would be finished
“Will I really die here?” Liao Hua laughed bitterly He felt really bitter He never expected that he would not die by the hands of the enemy or on the walls but in the hands of allies If he was killed today, he would not even knoas the one that killed hiht that he could become someone who Liu Bei deeed to others
Just as Liao Hua was about to give up, a battle cry suddenly came from around them “Liao Hua Do not be afraid Liu Pi is here!”
“Kill! Kill thee of the woods One by one, they brandished their weapons and approached
“What? An a ih of relief Both of them were happy that reinforcements had arrived If the reinforce would have no choice but to kill Liao Hua
The Xiliang Cavalry finally showed their riding skills and quickly got pass the three layers of carriages They also killed a few people before leaving “Liao Hua You better remember me I will be back Collect yourthat, the two hundred cavalry ran and vanished from Liao Hua’s eyes
“Phew” Liao Hua finally relaxed His forehead was filled with cold sweat He had been very close to losing his life Now that he had escaped death, he was in high spirits
Zhao Long’s Xiliang cavalry quickly dispersed without co into contact with Liu Pi’s Ar troops to pick up the provisions and carriages Liiu Pi then had time to meet with Liao Hua
“Yuan Jian What happened to you? Why were there cavalries? Did Lu Bu send the Wolf Cavalry to deliver provisions?” Liu Pi asked several questions without giving Liao Hua ti death becaain
“No It is not the Wolf Cavalry” Liao Hua shook his head “Leader These are not the Wolf Cavalry They are our own men!” Liao Hua had experienced an unclear hardshi+p that he felt unco to himself
