The weeds on both sides of the Rushui River have basically withered, and occasionally you can see a small piece of light green, with a little light red dotted in it. The river surface is very wide and the water flows are not fast, but the wind is a little cold, which makes it very uncomfortable to blow on the sweaty body. The sound of the running water is soft, as if you are afraid of waking up the tranquility of the wilderness.

The soldiers sat quietly on the horse, each of them seemed very calm. They seemed to have not noticed the coming fight and the coming God of Death, calm and calm, as if they were one with the world itself.

Li Hong and Xiaodao stood by the river, looking at the pursuers who were gradually advancing in the distance.

"Heizi, you are the best soldier I have ever seen." Xiaodao said suddenly.

Li Hong smiled, "Thank you. Mr. Shi, how do you plan to fight this battle?"

"Fight." According to Xiaodao's idea, twenty people rushed up and fought. The amount of time they could withstand was as long as they could. Li Hong stopped him.

Li Hong asked him: "What a long time, do you want us twenty to be rolled into meat paste by the enemy's cavalry?"

Xiaodao said helplessly: "Do you have any way to save everyone?"

Li Hong smiled, "Of course there is. But you will follow my command once."

"As long as you can save everyone's lives, you can even kill my life." Xiaodao said excitedly.

Li Hong directed everyone to ride a horse to the river.

"Look, from the grass to the river bank, there is a slope of one person high between fifty steps. Don't underestimate such a slope. Fifty steps can make the enemy's horse slow down quickly and cannot impact us. And behind us is the Rushui River. If he rushes forward, once he does not have direct contact with us, he will inevitably rush into the river when the horse is extremely fast. He will not be able to reach the fastest speed, but may fall into the river. The enemy will definitely not be willing to take a strong attack when facing this dilemma."

"If we can't rely on war horses to attack, we can only take positions to attack. We have few people, so we can naturally not beat them. But we can find ways to make the enemy's more advantageous people into disadvantages."

The sound of horse hooves from the pursuers in the distance was like *, and it was heard violently. Xiaodao was anxious and shouted: "Heizi, please tell me what to do, the enemy is coming."

Li Hong took a casual look and continued to say to the soldiers around him: "Everyone turned his back to the river, lined up the eighteen horses in two groups, forming a semicircle to form a semicircular horse hoof formation. In this way, the thickness and radius of this horse hoof formation are just enough for us to defend. The enemy attacks, we defend, and see who loses and who wins."

Li Hong looked at everyone and said with a smile: "Do you understand?"

The soldiers probably saw hope for survival or drew strength from Li Hong's confident smile. They suddenly felt energetic and shouted in unison: "I understand."

Everyone immediately tied the war horses together on the river bank according to Li Hong's request, forming a solid fortress. Due to Li Hong's detailed explanation, the soldiers knew the advantages and disadvantages of both sides, so they were full of confidence, each with great energy and vitality.

Li Hong then said to Xiaodao: "As long as we keep it until tomorrow, we will win."

Xiaodao admired him so much. Hearing this, he asked in surprise: "Why?"

"Tomorrow their troops will set off from Red Flower Valley and officially launch a military operation to attack Lulongsai. It doesn't matter if we are there anymore. If they haven't killed us tomorrow, they will withdraw and follow the army."

"Why are you so sure they will launch an attack tomorrow?"

"Intuition." Li Hong said lightly.

Xiaodao was anxious when he heard this, "You're guessing it?"

Seeing his anxious look, Li Hong couldn't help laughing, "I won't lie about military affairs. Of course, I have to analyze the various situations."

Xiaodao kicked him hard and scolded: "I'm scared to death."

The enemy's horn sounded clearly in the ears of both of them. The enemy finally caught up with him.

The iron cavalry of the Wuwan people suddenly stopped a hundred steps away. Their centurion also saw that the defensive formations placed by the Han people with their backs against Rushui could not be rushed with the iron cavalry at all. However, they could not accept it in their hearts to let them give up the advantage of the cavalry and fight with the enemy. Moreover, before approaching the strange formation, the losses of their soldiers must have been very large, which was a slope nearly fifty steps away.

The Karasuma people hesitated on the grass a hundred steps away. The soldiers in the horse hoof formation slowly recovered from the initial tension, and the soldiers began to whisper.

Li Hong sat on the river bank and observed the movements of the other party from under the horse's belly.

The Wuhuan people began to re-arrange the formation. Soon, they began to advance steadily with the sound of ox horns.

Li Hong shouted: "Brothers, the Wuwan people are going to attack. Everyone prepare their bows and arrows. Remember, two people are in charge, one group is in charge, and never let them break through the horse hoof formation."

The soldiers were busy for a while and then they found their own shooting positions.

The Wuwan people advanced very quickly, and they were only eighty steps in a blink of an eye. Xiaodao urged: "Heizi, shoot!" Li Hong shook his head: "We have few weapons, so we need to save money. Wait until they get closer."

The Karasuma people had already started firing long arrows. Xiaodao was anxious and shouted: "If we don't fight back, we will be shot into hedgehogs."

Li Hong shook his head firmly, "Be careful, if you don't work, just hide under the horse's belly. Hurry, hurry up." After saying that, he crawled over first. The soldiers' movements were faster than rabbits, and in a blink of an eye, they were all under the horse's belly.

The long arrows roared and made a shocking and strange scream, and they arrived in an instant. Only the sound of arrows drilling into the war horses was heard continuously. The war horses neighed in pain and kept ringing, and some of them became restless, and some struggled to escape. However, the reins of the horses were tied together, and they were tightly held by the soldiers and could not escape. The grass on the river bank was immediately filled with long arrows from the enemy.

The Karasuman immediately issued the second round. Because the two sides were too close, the power of this round was greatly reduced, and many arrows were shot into the river.

Li Hong was the first to cheer, "It's our turn. Everyone shoots in parallel, no matter whether it's a person or a horse, they will shoot down."

Twenty people stood in different corners, pulling bows and arrows. The Karasuma people tried their best to urge their horses, wanting to pass the slope earlier and approach the enemy's horse formation, so that the opponent's long arrows would also lose the effective distance to shoot. The Karasuma people also wanted to shoot, but when faced with tall war horses, even if they shot out the arrows, they would just be nailed to the war horses. A hundred people could not deal with such a small group of people? No one felt that it was not possible.

Amid everyone's expectations, Li Hong finally shouted: "Ejaculate..."

At a distance of forty or fifty steps, the long arrow shot was just a blink of an eye. The Karasuan cavalry was unstoppable and immediately fell a large area from the horse. Several horses were shot, and the war horses were in pain and rushed forward. Then they were shot by more arrows and fell down. The cavalry on the horse naturally became a living target.

More Karasuwan cavalry roared, kicking the horse's belly fiercely, and continued to rush up the slope.

Li Hong shot out his tenth arrow. He saw that the Wuhuan soldier who was caught was only ten feet away from him. The soldier had a beard that was much smaller than that of ordinary people, and he was probably just a young man. He grabbed the long arrow that penetrated his chest with one hand and waved in the air in despair, as if he wanted to grab a life-saving straw. His body stretched out on the galloping horse's back, then rose into the air and fell heavily to the ground.

"The war horse lie down in the inner circle..." Li Hong turned around and ordered loudly. Several soldiers standing next to the horse hurriedly grabbed the reins and patted the horse's back desperately. The war horse obediently lay down. The enemy will soon approach. If the space at the lower part of the war horse is not blocking the space, the enemy's chances of raiding will greatly increase.

Li Hong saw the soldiers who died in battle. The three men were caught in several arrows and lay in the open space in the middle. Although there were war horses as cover, some brothers still died.

After losing more than 30 soldiers, the Karasuwan cavalry finally rushed to the periphery of the horse hoof formation.

The Wuwan people were helpless. They seemed to have eaten a beef bone. Although the delicious bone marrow was inside the bone, they needed to use something to break the bone to suck out the bone marrow to eat. Now the Wuwan people don’t have sharp tools. They surrounded the enemy camp and rode war horses back and forth. The two sides occasionally shot two arrows at each other, but there was no threat.

The Wuwan people hesitated for a short time and then launched a fierce attack on the horse hoof formation. They adopted the human sea tactic, with one team of ten people, quickly approached the enemy formation, and then jumped into the horse hoof formation from the war horse and fought with the Han soldiers.

Li Hong had no choice. At this time, it was courage and perseverance. Whoever could persevere to the end would be the winner. Li Hong shouted out: "Brothers, kill them."

Xiaodao also shouted loudly on the left side of the formation: "Kill, kill them." The fierce hand-to-hand combat began.

The Wuwan people jumped down from a high altitude and attacked, which naturally suffered a great loss. At the beginning, two or three people attacked one of them, and several swords were slashed from different angles, and no one could resist it. Li Hong was the most fierce, and the Wuwan people who jumped into his defensive area were all dying in the air cleanly and didn't hum.

The Wuwan people did not retreat at all, and continued to move forward one after another, continuing to approach the formation and continued to jump in. More and more people jumped, and more and more people gathered in the horse hoof formation. Seventy or eighty people, seventy or eighty horses, were all squeezed on this narrow river bank, tightly entangled. Outside the formation, there were a few Wuwan people standing on the horse's back, not raiding a few cold arrows to raid the Han soldiers in the formation.

The battle was extremely fierce. Li Hong was already squeezed out of the area he defended by the Wuwan soldiers. If there were more than a few Wuwan people, they could push away the war horses standing together and open the gap in the horse's hoof formation. The Wuwan people who were waiting outside could rush forward. Li Hong was anxious, gave up defense and attacked with all his strength, and no matter his life and death, he rushed directly into the middle of the Wuwan people like a man-eating tiger, and stabbed him in the back of the man who held the reins with both hands.

Xiaodao roared and stabbed into the enemy's chest with one force, but then he felt a severe pain in his vest. Then he saw a bloody battle knife rushing out of his chest. Xiaodao smiled helplessly. Big Head was angry, and he shouted heart-wrenchingly: "Little Head..." He no longer cared about slashing at his battle knife, and the long sword in his hand was directly inserted under the enemy's scepter. At the same time, the enemy's knife slashed on Big Head's chest, making a dull sound of bone breaking. Zheng Xin's sword almost cut off the enemy's head at the same time, blood splattered, and the screams were shrill.

Wu Ba saw his comrades falling down one by one, his anger made him lose his mind, and even his eyes turned red. The sword in his hand had no moves. He held the sword handle tightly with both hands, just chopping and chopping. Two swords chopped on his back, and he didn't feel anything. He forced his sword into the enemy's chest. A long arrow shot at him, piercing his heart straight. Wu Ba fell down, and fell down with the enemy he killed.

Li Hong cut off his enemy with a knife and rushed towards him. He felt that he could not hold on. The fierceness of the Wuwan people was beyond his imagination. They rushed up regardless of their lives, no matter how many people were sacrificed. In this small formation, there were already corpses, and there were not even a place to support them. Some were still several corpses piled up together. Li Hong saw that Xiaodao was dead, the other three sergeant were dead, and the remaining four soldiers were still struggling to resist. There were more than twenty enemies outside the formation preparing to make the final impact.

At this moment, Li Hong heard the sound of horse hooves, dense sounds of horse hooves. Then there was the cheers of the Wuwan people. Enemy reinforcements came.

Li Hong was desperate. This battle was a thousand miles apart from his prediction. The tenacity of the Wuwan people and the courage to fight with their lives made them win. Even if it was a miserable victory, it was a victory. They would rather die in battle than guard their prey like a coward to give up attack. Attack and attack continuously, they destroyed the lives of Han soldiers and the fortress of Han soldiers.

The last blow, as long as the last blow, everything will end.

The emergence of reinforcements greatly stimulated the remaining Wuhuan cavalry. They were probably afraid that the credit would be stolen by others, so they immediately launched the last attack.

Looking at the enemy who jumped in like a tide, Li Hong shouted to the remaining soldiers: "Go, go quickly, go from the river."

No soldier listened to him. Everyone was still fighting like a madman. Li Hong retreated quickly and saw Zheng Xin. Zheng Xin was surrounded by three or four enemies and was in danger. Li Hong did not hesitate to fly out a small axe, picked up a knife from the ground, and killed both swords at the same time.

"Let's go, go into the water." Li Hong shouted to him. Zheng Xin nodded subconsciously, and pulled the sword out of the enemy in front of him, bringing out a bunch of blood. Li Hong avoided the enemy's slash and quick hands. He inserted his left knife into the chest of an enemy who was surrounding him, and his right knife blocked the killing that rushed up from the right. Li Hong gave up the knife inserted into the enemy's chest, pulled the small axe from the corpse of the enemy soldiers lying on the ground with his left hand, swung it round, and chopped it hard on the enemy's thigh behind. The enemy howled and flew backwards.

Li Hong and Zheng Xin moved back to back, quickly towards the riverside. At this time, the other three soldiers in the formation had been rushed up by the wolf-like Wuwan people and chopped to the ground.

A dozen Wuhuan people rushed towards them.

"You go first." Li Hong shouted and suddenly turned around and rushed forward. Zheng Xin did not dare to hesitate. Under Li Hong's cover, he ran for two steps, jumped high, and with a "thump", he drilled into the cold river.

Li Hong tried his best to show his power and killed three people in a row. The Wuwan people were even more crazy and rushed up desperately. I thought he must kill him and could not escape another one.

It’s not that Li Hong didn’t want to escape, he couldn’t escape at all. These roaring men wanted to eat him. Li Hong was forced to retreat step by step and retreat into the cold river.

Li Hong continued to retreat, and the faster he retreated.

The man of Wuhuan realized that the man was going to escape by leveraging water. Several soldiers standing on the shore immediately took down the bow and arrow and shot it. Li Hong roared and threw a sword at the archers on the shore.

The sword roared in the air and left quickly.

An archer just raised his bow when he saw the bloody sword flying towards him. He screamed in fear, but he could not hide. He watched the sword penetrate his body and penetrate his chest.
