    Youzhou, Yuyang County.  (Literary Museum)

    "Report, thirty miles ahead is Yongnu City." The scouts who rushed towards reported loudly.

    Tai Shici nodded slightly and waved his hand to dismiss the scouts.

    "According to what is noted on the map, forty miles northwest of Yongnu City is Jixian County. If General Taishi orders the whole army to move quickly, I believe that Yongnu will be captured by evening." Deng Ai raised his hand and spoke.

    Tai Shici shook his head and ordered: "Send the order and the whole army will stop advancing and set up camp on the spot."

    Set up camp on the spot?

    Deng Ai frowned and looked a little suspicious, but he did not question Taishi Ci and conveyed the message to the general.

    Five thousand cavalry stopped advancing, chose a suitable place, and set up camp on the spot.

    The soldiers buried the pot to make rice and had a hearty meal after running all day. As night fell, the soldiers quickly fell asleep.

    Deng Ai could not sleep, so he went to the big tent to see Taishi Ci.

    As soon as he entered the military tent, Deng Ai cupped his hands and said, "General Taishi, I have a few words, I don't know whether I should say them or not."

    "Young General, please speak." Taishi Ci said politely. Although Deng Ai was his deputy general, he was Yan Liang's adopted son after all, and his status was different.

    "Our army is only one step away from Yongnu City, why don't we capture it as soon as possible and make it our foothold." Deng Ai raised doubts in his heart.

    Tai Shici smiled and asked: "Capture Yongnu City, what next?"

    "Then?" Deng Ai was stunned for a moment, "Then of course we will use this city as a foothold, wait for work, and lure Wuhuan's cavalry to arrive. Then we will use the Iron Buddha to destroy the Hulu in one fell swoop."

    As a deputy general, Deng Ai naturally knew the ultimate purpose of their trip.

    "The terrain in the Yongnu area is flat, and Wuhuan mostly has light cavalry. The major general thinks that in such terrain, can our iron pagoda annihilate Wuhuan's light cavalry?" Taishi Ci asked again, with a meaningful tone.

    Deng Ai's expression was shocked, and he suddenly realized.

    Heavy cavalry versus light cavalry, the Chu army could easily overwhelm the Wuhuan light cavalry regiment by relying on the powerful impact and defense of Tiefu Tu, but the lightly-armed Wuhuan light cavalry could quickly scatter in all directions in this plain area.  This way.  The damage caused to the Wuhuan people in this battle will be greatly reduced.

    Furthermore, the Wuhuan people discovered Iron Buddha Tu. Faced with such a powerful heavy cavalry, did they dare to fight head-on?  It¡¯s even harder to say.

    " Capturing Yongnu City is tantamount to showing your true strength to the enemy. It is really an unwise choice.

    "General Taishi is right. If we want to severely damage the enemy's cavalry in one battle, we must choose an excellent battlefield." Deng Ai was so smart that he clearly understood Taishi Ci's intention.

    Tai Shici smiled slightly.  There was a hint of slyness in the corner of his mouth, "Don't worry, I have already chosen a grave for Wu Huan."

    ¡­¡­

    Five thousand Chu troops were stationed in the east of Yongnu City.  The 30,000 Wuhuan Qingqi led by Nanlou were running wildly all night.

    At dawn the next day, Nanlou finally arrived at Yongnu City and blocked the way for the Chu army to march into Moss County.

    When Nanlou learned that the Chu army was already thirty miles away.  He breathed a sigh of relief and admired his speed.  He rushed to Yongnu first.

    "The Chu army is marching so slowly. If I had known this, my king would not have to rush in such a hurry." Nanlou seemed to be mocking himself, but in fact he was full of contempt for the Chu army.

    Nanlou immediately ordered the dispatch of waiting cavalry to carefully investigate the details of the Chu army.

    After a day of inspection, the waiting cavalry sent back news that the number of Chu troops who had arrived in a sneak attack was five thousand, and most of them were light cavalry.

    Knowing the truth and falsehood of the Chu army, Nanlou became even more disdainful of the Chu army.

    There are only 5,000 enemies, but he has 30,000 cavalry troops under his command. This is simply an overwhelming advantage.

    Nanlou immediately ordered the army to rest for a day, and tomorrow the whole army would be sent out to defeat the Chu army in one fell swoop.

    ¡­¡­

    The next day, Chu Camp.

    The scouts rushed into the camp and arrived at the big tent.

    "General, Wuhuan Chieftain is leading 30,000 light cavalry from Nanlou, and they are rushing towards my camp."

    Hearing the news, the Chu generals in the tent, instead of being shocked, looked excited.

    Tai Shici raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a confident smile.

    Deng Ai raised his hand and said excitedly: "General Taishi's prediction is indeed true. The barbarians don't know what I'm telling you, so they really came to attack in a big way."

    "After passing the order, the whole army immediately broke out of camp and marched along the original road towards Ninghe River.The fortress retreated.  "Tai Shici sneered and gave the order to retreat.

    After the order was passed, the five thousand knights of the Chu army who had been well prepared immediately abandoned the camp and withdrew towards the southeast seaside.

    Not long after the Chu army withdrew, the Wuhuan cavalry led by Nanlou arrived and occupied an empty camp without any bloodshed.

    When Taishi Ci left, he deliberately abandoned a lot of weapons and supplies to create the illusion of a hasty retreat out of fear and panic.

    After Nanlou saw this wandering Chu camp, his confidence soared, and he became even more convinced that the Chu army was intimidated by his power and did not dare to fight, so he could only choose to retreat in a hurry.

    Full of confidence, Nanlou immediately ordered the entire army to continue the pursuit, determined to drive the Chu army into the sea even if they could not defeat them.

    So, on the hundreds of miles from Yongcheng to Ninghe Fortress, the Wuhuan people and the Chu army rushed forward and backward, half a day's journey apart.

    Taishi Ci even abandoned two temporary camps. In the afternoon, his troops withdrew to a distance of thirty miles away from the Ning River. At this time, Taishi Ci ordered the entire army to stop retreating and form formations on the spot, preparing to attack Wuhuan.

    The sky is high and the clouds are clear, the breeze is gentle, and the wind is blowing to the southeast. It is a good time to engage in battle.

    Taishi Ci stood on his horse, as quiet as a stone statue, exuding a kind of calmness and determination.

    The five thousand Chu troops from Deng Ai on down also stood solemnly, all excited, just waiting for a big battle.

    The five thousand soldiers, whether they were horses or knights, were all wearing thick armor. Looking around, they saw countless fish scales, reflecting the dazzling cold light.

    In the past few days, in order to paralyze the enemy, Taishi Ci has been ordering his soldiers to wear light armor and pretend to be light cavalry soldiers.

    Today, the moment of decisive battle has arrived. The Chu army has torn off its disguise and revealed its original ferocious face.

    The military spirit is strong and the fighting spirit is like fire.

    Five thousand pairs of eyes as sharp as blades stared coldly ahead.  Watching the billowing, approaching dust storm.

    A cold smile appeared on Taishi Ci's lips. He knew that the Wuhuan people had indeed fallen into the trap.

    Deng Ai glanced at Taishi Ci, then looked around the surrounding terrain, and sighed in his heart: "No wonder my father would choose Taishi Ziyi to be the commander of the expeditionary force. If Taishi Ci had not ruled Youzhou for Liu Bei for a long time, how could he have chosen him?"  Such an excellent battlefield. My father¡¯s vision is truly extraordinary.¡±

    While Deng Ai was thinking and sighing, the dust storm on the opposite side was getting closer, and the figures of the galloping Wuhuan cavalry could be vaguely seen.

    Thirty thousand Wuhuan people are rushing towards them.

    That steep Wang Nan Tower.  He was even more energetic, holding a mace in his hand, and galloping wildly on his horse.

    Hou Qi sent back information that the Chu army had stopped retreating and was arraying several miles away in a decisive battle posture.

    The Chu army is in a position of great difficulty.  He immediately urged the army to move quickly, hoping to wipe out the enemy immediately.

    The endless plains gradually began to have ups and downs, and the roads turned out to be wide.  It gradually narrowed to three or four miles wide, and undulating low slopes began to appear on both sides.

    Nanlou once suspected that the Chu army chose to fight him in such terrain because they wanted to take advantage of the terrain.  Fight an ambush.

    But although the road is getting narrower, it is still at least three or four miles wide.  The slopes on both sides are not too high. In such a terrain, even if a crossbow is hidden, it will be of little use.

    Out of caution, Nanlou sent scouts along the slopes on both sides to detect whether there was an ambush of the Chu army on the top of the slope at any time.

    Now that the enemy army was approaching, the scouts never found the Chu army's crossbowmen, and Nanlou's worries gradually disappeared.

    In the blink of an eye, the Chu army was already one mile away, forming a military formation and blocking Wuhuan's path.

    "Hmph, you dare to challenge head-on with only five thousand people. You are really overestimating your capabilities." Nanlou sneered disdainfully, waved the mace in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Warriors of Dawuhuan, follow me and charge.  , wipe out the enemy thieves, and promote the reputation of our great Wuhuan~~"

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    The horn of the horn sounded, and the horn of attack resounded across the wilderness.

    Amidst the deafening sound of killing, the 30,000 Wuhuan cavalry sped up and rushed towards the Chu army in a mighty manner.

    Looking from the sky, the Wuhuan cavalry are scattered all over the road three to four miles wide. The raised dust and mist cover the sky and the sun. The Wuhuan people are like a mountain torrent, rushing forward with arrogance.

    The earth was rumbling and shaking, and the ears were filled with shouts of death and the sound of horse hooves trampling the ground.

    Facing such a killing force, the five thousand knights of the Chu Army did not show any fear at all. Their faces??All that is left is the determination to kill.

    The time has come, so there is no doubt.

    Tai Shici made a move with his big spear and shouted: "Soldiers of Da Chu, the time has come to show off the power of China. Follow me and kill all these barbarians. Charge -"

    Thunderous shouts rang out, and the hundreds of light cavalry in disguise in the front row quickly moved away like waves, revealing the heavy cavalry armed to the teeth.

    Tiefu Tu, ascend the city!

    Da Shi Ci galloped out with his horse, whip, and spear.

    Amidst the loud noise that shook the sky and the earth, five thousand iron pagodas were launched with a bang, rushing out with the force of landslides and ground cracks.

    The sound of the five thousand heavy cavalry actually overwhelmed the thirty thousand enemy cavalry.

    The sky and the earth are in a state of silence, and the wind and clouds are changing color.

    In an instant, Nanlou was stunned, and the originally rampant Wuhuan cavalry were all stunned.

    Didn¡¯t the Chu army have five thousand light cavalry? Why did they suddenly turn into heavy armored cavalry?

    Nanlou's mind was in turmoil and was extremely horrified. All his arrogance and fighting spirit were easily destroyed the moment the Chu army's iron pagoda appeared.

    Looking at the torrent of steel in front of him, looking at the terrain on the left and right, and thinking about all the previous signs, Nanlou suddenly realized at this moment that he had fallen into the Chu army's trick.

    The retreat of the Chu army was just an illusion. The purpose was to lure him into this unfavorable terrain and use his heavy cavalry to overwhelm his light cavalry.

    Nanlou was so shocked that he lost all his strength.

    But at this time, Taishi Ci was wielding a big gun, with murderous intent, and led his five thousand iron cavalry to rush towards them with the power to destroy everything.

    "Kill all the barbarians¡ª¡ª
