    Aguhuaien did not disappoint. Gu Li appeared on the battlefield within the scheduled time. She did not attack the Chu army at the first time. Thousands of Huns cavalry rushed into the Chu army cavalry at the first time.  The small number of Chu troops remaining in the camp were like a few bubbles. They melted into the tide of Xiongnu soldiers in the blink of an eye. Torches were thrown into the tent, and raging flames rose into the sky.  Forage, grain and other reserves were immediately caught in fire bombs.  Under the reflection of the fire, Gu Li led his Hun independent cavalry division to rush out of the sea of ????fire. The ghostly face on his face looked particularly ferocious under the reflection of the fire.  Compared with Agu Huai'en, Gu Li, the ghost-faced general, is much more famous among the Chu people. She is almost synonymous with the Han cavalry's victorious battles. Over the years, the ghost-faced general has made great achievements in the war against Qin.  The Chu people had already listed him as the most dangerous person.  Thousands of Xiongnu cavalry surrounded them from the outside. The Chu cavalry was surrounded by both inside and outside. The two cavalry that surrounded them were the most famous cavalry units on this continent. They were far superior in terms of equipment and combat power.  Above the Chu army, the Chu army's cavalry had previously dealt with Agu Huai'en's Donghu independent cavalry division alone. The Chu army's cavalry could still manage to deal with it relying on its numerical advantage. However, when the Donghu army's independent cavalry division led by Gu Li arrived, the Chu army's cavalry  It collapsed in an instant.  Escape has become the main theme of this moment.  With a tacit understanding, the two cavalry divisions opened a passage in one direction at the same time, which was leading to the Chu infantry camp.  The panicked Chu cavalry had no energy left to judge why the enemy in this direction was so weak. Instead, they followed the gap and tried their best to escape.  Behind them, two groups of Han cavalry followed closely. At this moment, their team had spread out, and they kept driving the Chu cavalry forward behind them.  Bai Xizhong, the general of the Chu army, could hardly believe that his own 10,000 cavalry collapsed in such a short period of time, under the cover of night.  He didn't know yet that there were as many as ten thousand Han cavalry chasing these Chu cavalry at this moment.  At this moment, he was commanding the 20,000 soldiers of the right rear camp to march slowly in formation. He was originally planning to cooperate with the cavalry.  Now, he discovered that his own cavalry might kill him.  "Formation!" Bai Xizhong shouted loudly, "Archers, prepare." Each square formation stopped.  They stood firm and formed a spear array with a forest of spears. The archers stretched their bows and nocked arrows, pointing forward in the distance.  "Shout, walk left and right." Bai Xizhong said sternly.  Thousands of Chu soldiers shouted loudly, and the shouts of walking left and right resounded throughout the world. If these Chu cavalry were allowed to be driven forward and hit the infantry's main formation, they would be led out of the camp.  The 20,000 Chu infantry will die without a burial place.  The panicked Chu army cavalry listened to the shouts that resounded throughout the world.  Seeing the brightly lit infantry phalanx in front, I also knew in my heart that if I rushed over like this, I would either overwhelm my own army, or be shot into hedgehogs by my own infantry. The running torrent would split left and right, fleeing into the darkness on both sides.  .  The Han cavalry seemed to have no intention of attacking the Chu infantry. When the Chu army split to the left and right, they also split to the left and right, chasing the Chu cavalry.  Biting each other's flesh and blood.  "Fire arrows!" Bai Xizhong ordered loudly. Even though the shouts resounded throughout the world, there were still Chu cavalry and Han cavalry who were chasing after them and rushed towards the military formation.  An overwhelming barrage of arrows were shot forward, and both the pursued and the pursuers were hit by arrows and fell down from their horses.  Before the military formation.  In an instant, it was all gone, leaving only a few scattered war horses, which stopped alone.  The fighting on both wings is still going on. The Han cavalry is chasing the Chu army crazily. The Chu cavalry that has bypassed this military formation will flee next to the infantry camp in the rear.  "Change formation. Retreat." Bai Xizhong understood the opponent's purpose, but now he had nothing to do. The Chu infantry slowly retreated, turning their formation into an inverted triangle, and retreated towards their main camp.  The defense of the infantry camp also became a nightmare for the fleeing Chu troops at this time. In the dark night, the panicked Chu troops fell one after another in front of the trenches. However, in the camp, there were still 20,000 Chu troops left behind.  The army set up battle arrays in the camp, with heavy weapons such as crossbows and stone cannons, and kept pouring them towards the sound of horse hooves outside the camp.  They could not tell whether what came in the dark was friendly troops or Han cavalry.  The sky was getting brighter, and the 20,000 infantrymen led by Bai Xizhong finally slowly retreated to their main camp. The camp was safe and sound, but outside the camp was like a Shura field, with corpses of people and horses scattered everywhere, including those from the Chu army and others.  They belong to the Han army, but most of them are from the Chu people.  The first trench outside the camp was almost covered with corpses of men and horses.It's flat.  The Han cavalry did not leave. Standing outside the camp, he could clearly see that at the end of the field of vision, the Han army's yellow dragon flag was still flying. The Han cavalry seemed to be repairing their wounds.  , will the next target be yourself?  After returning to the camp, Bai Xi began to arrange for the next battle. The cavalry responsible for his peripheral protection was finished. Although after dawn, the scattered Chu army cavalry continued to return, and he also collected many skirmishers along the way, but  Ten thousand cavalrymen, in the best case scenario, only half of them would return to camp.  Many people also lost their horses and weapons, and more importantly, they lost their confidence in fighting the Han cavalry.  Without the protection of the cavalry, he will be nailed here. No infantry can march forward under the observation of the powerful enemy cavalry.  "Have you sent a rescue letter to friendly forces?" he asked the deputy general next to him.  "We have already set off. If everything goes well, our cavalry will arrive by this afternoon at most." the deputy general replied.  It was another big defeat. Bai Xizhong looked at the yellow dragon flag fluttering high in the wind in the distance. How did the Han cavalry sneak over from their own scouts?  After having breakfast in the camp, the scouts sent out also returned. The Han people seemed not to care about these scouts at all. They did not even take the most basic warning and allowed these scouts to come close to conduct reconnaissance and then return safely.  "They are making sandbags and cutting down trees?" Hearing the scout's answer, Bai Xizhong was a little confused. Do these more than 10,000 cavalry really want to attack his camp with their current strength?  It turns out that in Bai Xizhong's imagination, the most likely possibility for the other party is to crucify themselves here, which is their limit.  But now it seems that the enemy does not think so.  As if to confirm Bai Xizhong's thoughts, an hour later, the banner of the Donghu Independent Cavalry Division appeared outside the camp. Amidst the shrill sound of bugles, the enemy galloped towards the camp and quickly approached the camp.  During the camp, the soil bags hunched on the horse's back were thrown out using the power of the horse. With the clattering sound, the sandbags fell into the trench one by one.  The distance between the Han cavalry and each other is very wide, and the crossbow arrows in the camp have a very limited hit rate against them. However, if the large-scale covering shot is above this distance, even if it hits, it will only scratch the opponent's itch.  Bai Xizhong could only watch as his opponents filled in the trenches around the camp unscrupulously.  Half an hour later, the attacker was replaced by the Huns independent cavalry division.  "Report!" Several scouts ran from a distance, and Pegasus arrived in front of Gu Li and Agu Huai'en. "The Chu army's left-wing cavalry and the central army's cavalry, totaling 20,000 cavalry, are rapidly approaching us. They are only a few meters away from us.  It¡¯s ten miles away.¡± Gu Li laughed, ¡°The half-day¡¯s work was not in vain, and we finally succeeded in luring them all over. General Agu, just follow the previous plan. Can your brothers withstand it?¡±  "What's so irresistible about Dong Hu'erlang? Besides, haven't they already slept for a long time today? Now that they've eaten and drank enough, it's time to get out and have a big fight." Agu Huaien laughed.  , a successful battle last night, at least thousands of Chu cavalry were killed. This was already a rare victory.  At this moment, they are about to launch a major detour. Even if the grand detour tactical move does not succeed in the end, it is enough to be at the bottom with this victory.  "Move quickly. Now we have to compete with the opponent for time. The distance the opponent's cavalry retreats is half shorter than ours, but they cannot leave the right wing quickly. They must confirm that we have gone far. In addition, the Chu army's cavalry  We don't dare to travel quickly at night. This is our advantage. From now on, we will spend time on horseback. At noon tomorrow, we will rush to the left wing and defeat their left wing infantry. General Agu, looking for  But what about 40,000 people!" "As long as they don't huddle in the camp and don't have the opportunity to form a tight square formation, what's so scary about 40,000 people?" Agu Huai'en sneered.  "Now, even if they form a solid square formation, we have a way to deal with it. The key is not to let them build a solid defensive position." Gu Li laughed.  He jumped on his horse and said: "My sons, let's go!" Tens of thousands of cavalry came roaring like a flood, but then roared away. In the blink of an eye, they ran away without a trace, leaving only a place for the Chu army.  of mess.  As Gu Li expected, the two groups of cavalry who came to the rescue did not dare to leave in a hurry. It would take time to confirm that the two groups of Han cavalry had indeed left. The cavalry on the right wing had been beaten to half a disability, and they still needed to separate.  Some troops were sent out to strengthen the protection of the right wing. Since the Han cavalry focused their attack on Bai Xizhong's unit, they naturally had to take all precautions.  At this time, no one thought that the real target of this Han cavalry wasThe infantry camp on the flank.  (To be continued.)
