Invincible son

Chapter 273 272 [Looking back]

Linqing County.

The best range of Daliang's standard longbow is within a hundred steps, so Pei Yue waited until the horse bandits reached the boundary of this distance before ordering to release the arrow.Three hundred longbows were fired at once, and the feathered arrows splashed like locusts, piercing the front of the horse bandits head-on, killing more than forty people in an instant.

Li Zijun brushed past a feathered arrow, and at that moment he clearly felt the taste of death.

He suddenly recalled that outside the Green Willow Manor in Kyoto, Pei Yue threw out a dagger after cutting his palm, and wanted to fight him to the end. At that time, he flinched in fear, not only paid 5000 taels of silver for nothing, but also became a famous figure in the rich circle of Kyoto. laughing stock.The following tribulations all arose because of this, Li Zijun seemed to have been stabbed in the heart, the fear in his heart disappeared without a trace, only the inexhaustible hatred remained.

"Kill!"

He raised his sword and shouted again, rushing to Pei Yue first without fear of death.

The two strong men with big knives behind them also stared at Pei Yue, as if killing this man was more important than protecting Li Zijun.

At this moment, the battlefield changed again. Pei Yue didn't let his men continue to shoot arrows, even though judging from the distance, they could still shoot at least two rounds before engaging in hand-to-hand combat.He glanced expressionlessly at Li Zijun, who was in a state of madness, pulled the reins, turned around and left. The three hundred riders followed him immediately without any hesitation, led by the three sentinels.

The horse bandits are superb in riding skills, but most of the Zangfeng Guards are elite soldiers, so how can they be weaker than a group of mobs?
At first, taking advantage of the speed of their mounts, they were about to touch each other's tails. Li Zijun could even see the patterns on the light armor of these Jingying cavalry, but they couldn't catch up with such a short distance.

On the wide and flat land outside the city, Pei Yue and Sanbai rode in front, and Li Zijun led the bandits behind, and the distance between the two sides gradually expanded.

Li Zijun was so angry that he yelled and yelled wildly from behind, but the scolding was drowned in the dust all over the sky.

On the tower, Yan Linchuan, the former rightist governor, looked down and couldn't help but praise: "Master Pei is still very young, but he is also well versed in the art of war. It can be seen that His Majesty has not misunderstood someone."

Given his age and status, it's not a big deal to say that, it's just that the tower was so quiet that no one spoke to him.The local dignitaries in Linqing showed hesitation. From their point of view, those horse bandits had gone crazy. It was clear that the imperial envoy had been driven away, so why is Mr. Yan still flattering?

Isn't he afraid of being photographed on the horse's leg?

Yan Linchuan seemed to know what they were thinking, so he didn't explain much, but there was a hint of regret in his eyes looking at the battlefield.

Pei Yue led the three hundred riders to speed up gradually. He was too busy for more than half a year, so he didn't have much time to train these people according to his own ideas. Even though they were veterans of the Beijing camp, Pei Yue did have a lot of good things in his mind thing.

For example, Sun Tzu's Art of War and 36 Strategies, as well as the background of reading professional military magazines all the year round.

If it was the time when he just traveled here, he certainly wouldn't copy it mechanically, but he has been studying with Mr. Xi for more than two years, and he has enough understanding of the military in this world, not just talking about it on paper.

The so-called mastery is not too difficult for his IQ.

Fortunately, it was just a group of horse bandits right now, what he needed was the absolute obedience of the three hundred horsemen.

When the distance between the two sides reached more than fifty steps, Pei Yue raised his right hand and shouted, "Wait!"

The three hundred riders controlled the horse with both legs at the same time, stretching the bow with one hand and setting the arrow with the other. The neat and standard movements were spectacular, and they forcibly performed a cruel beauty in this chaotic battlefield.

"put!"

Another round of arrows shot towards the horse bandits behind.

Dozens of horse bandits screamed and fell off their horses.

"Pei Yue, you bastard! Beast! Stop!"

Li Zijun was about to go mad with anger. From the beginning to the end, he didn't care about the deaths and injuries of the horse bandits. The only purpose of this trip was to entangle Pei Yue and use the lives of more than 2000 people to keep him where he was. Formed into a stable formation of the establishment, then Chen Xizhi promised that his followers would be able to encircle and wipe out Pei Yue and the three hundred cavalry.

It's just that Pei Yue seemed to understand his thoughts, and didn't give him this chance at all, and now he even used a rogue tactics that he couldn't even think of.

After chasing but not being able to catch up, running but not being able to run, and having to beware of feathered arrows that might come at any time, Li Zijun and the horse bandits felt aggrieved and wanted to vomit.You must know that Pei Yue is on the run and they are chasing after him. In this case, the power of Feather Arrow will be infinitely magnified.At this moment, the two strong men beside Li Zijun looked at each other, seeing surprise and heaviness in each other's eyes.

The horse bandits were miserable. From the first charge to the present, they didn't even touch each other's hair, but lost more than 400 people.Judging by the normal course of the war, after losing close to [-]% of its vital force, the army will basically collapse.The problem is that Pei Yue is on the run and they are chasing them. Most of the horse bandits don't have the ability to judge the situation on the battlefield, and Li Zijun doesn't care about their lives, so the horse bandits think they have the advantage and just chase after them in a daze. with.

As the chief general, Pei Yue certainly didn't feel sorry for the opponent's loss. While observing the movement around the battlefield, he kept repeating the order to test the actual combat ability of the three hundred riders under him.

The tactic he is using at this moment was born out of the Mongolian cavalry that crossed Europe and Asia in the history of his previous life. This method was called "Parthian archery" by the ancient Romans, and the Mongols called themselves "Manguai".The core of this tactic is to pretend to flee and lure the enemy to pursue, and its essence is speed and suddenness.

With Pei Yue's current command strength, too many cavalry would definitely be difficult to control, and if the enemy is too strong, it would be difficult to use it calmly.Today's more than 2000 horse bandits can be regarded as the most suitable whetstone. The [-] cavalry under him are also the elite among the elite.

After circling twice in the open space outside the east gate, the horse bandits still couldn't catch up with Pei Yue, and their morale had dropped to the lowest point.

Looking at this scene on the tower, Wei Rui couldn't help sighing after all: "Your Majesty's talent is beyond compare."

Deng Zai next to him smiled and said, "Brother Wei, you don't have to be too modest. Although you are indeed not as good as the young master, you are still better than others."

Wei Rui laughed and said, "It's just a compliment from you."

Deng Zai nodded slightly, then clasped his fists and said, "Brother Wei, I'm going to check the situation in the city now, and at the same time, I also want to watch them complete the task you assigned as soon as possible."

"it is good."

After Deng Zai left, Wei Rui just relaxed a little, and then he noticed something abnormal in the distance, and his expression immediately became dignified.

The battlefield was extremely noisy, and Pei Yue was about to order the sixth round of shooting arrows, when he heard Chen Xianda, the sentinel of the second team behind him, hurriedly said: "My lord, it's Shang Yu!"

Hearing this, Pei Yue looked back, and saw behind the loose formation of horse bandits, a troop of cavalry was rushing towards the northeast, and the leader could vaguely be seen to be Shang Yu, the sentinel of the third troop.According to Pei Yue's previous arrangement, Shang Yu led his team to ambush behind the mountain in the northeast, either as a response or as an ambush.

Although Pei Yue was somewhat dissatisfied with Shang Yu's performance before, he believed that this person was not an idiot, and he would never act without authorization before he issued the fireworks order.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

Pei Yue suddenly discovered that the third team was not coming to stop the horse bandits, but was running away!
