Chapter 2711 Xiu Xiu launches a fierce attack on Yue Shan Camp, the two fierce warriors join forces to fight the Zombie Ancestor
A hundred or so riders—this number was not many compared to the massive Flying Tiger Camp, only one-thirtieth of the entire camp. However, when Ouyang Bozhao saw these hundred or so riders suddenly charging at him from the side, his pupils shrank drastically.
A hundred or so armored cavalrymen at their peak physical condition were more than enough to handle ordinary light cavalry, especially armored cavalry like the Flying Tigers.
"We've fallen into their trap!" Ouyang Bozhao's heart was instantly filled with gloom.
Ouyang Bozhao was a man who planned carefully before acting. Before engaging in battle, he would try his best to find out the enemy's situation so as to know himself and his enemy.
Regardless of the information he gleaned from the Daqian generals who had fought against Li Cunxiao, or from the information he obtained from the Xuanjing Division about Li Cunxiao's past experiences, his conclusion was that although Li Cunxiao was the bravest man in the world, in a sense, he was just a simple brute.
He never expected that such a reckless man would devise such a scheme for him, pretending to exhaust the Flying Tigers' strength while secretly leaving behind more than a hundred people, just to trick him into coming out on his own.
If it were any other Han general, Ouyang Bozhao would never have fallen for such a scheme. But unfortunately, it was Li Cunxiao, whom Ouyang Bozhao considered just a reckless brute. He never imagined that Li Cunxiao would set a trap for others.
Ouyang Bozhao's habit of trying every means to collect intelligence on the enemy before the battle was indeed a good one, but he was too superstitious about the judgments he made based on the intelligence he had, which also sealed his fate today.
Was Li Cunxiao really just a simple-minded brute? Not necessarily!
No matter what, Li Cunxiao's command has reached the Heavenly level. Such a person can only be said to be not a wise man, but how could he be a simple brute?
However, in most cases, Li Cunxiao's wisdom tells him that he should use his super power, which is why he appears to be a reckless man.
"kill."
With a roar from Li Cunxiao, the Flying Tiger Camp cavalry surged out from his sides like a black torrent, swallowing up Ouyang Bozhao's eight hundred light cavalry piece by piece.
Screams, the clash of weapons, and the pounding of horses' hooves mingled together and exploded outside the city gate.
Li Cunxiao himself immediately charged at the enemy's commander, Ouyang Bozhao. The outcome was predictable: in less than three exchanges, Ouyang Bozhao was killed on the spot by Li Cunxiao, without even a chance to surrender.
From then on, the entire Yueze City was captured by Li Cunxiao without lifting a finger. As a crucial point in the entire Yueshan defense line, it fell into the hands of the Han army with ease.
After the city fell, Li Cunxiao did not act rashly. Instead, he ordered his Flying Tiger Battalion to rest and regroup. After all, the Flying Tiger Battalion had expended considerable energy in luring Ouyang Bozhao out. At this point, the Flying Tiger Battalion was indeed exhausted and in a state of fatigue.
At the same time, Li Cunxiao's deputy general, An Xiuxiu, also arrived at Yueshan with 7,000 troops.
An Xiuxiu did not have Li Cunxiao's confidence that "the world is mine to roam." In addition, there were nearly 30,000 troops stationed in the entire Yue Mountain. When he first arrived, he did not intend to make any rash moves. Instead, he planned to wait for the rest of the troops to arrive and then let his superiors decide how to proceed.
This is why Li Cunxiao entrusted An Xiuxiu with leading these 7,000 men. Besides being the longest-serving and most loyal of his deputies, An Xiuxiu was also someone who, while perhaps not exceptionally capable, would never act recklessly. However, upon An Xiuxiu's arrival, he discovered that the Qian army's camp at the entrance to Yue Mountain, though nearing completion, was not yet fully finished.
A fully completed camp and a camp that is not yet fully completed are completely different in terms of defensive capabilities. When An Xiuxiu realized this, he immediately changed his previous idea, seized the opportunity, and led the entire army to press forward, intending to take the opportunity to capture the camp.
Faced with An Xiuxiu's all-out attack from the start, General Houqing could only hastily engage in combat. An Xiuxiu himself was certainly no match for Houqing, but he had two god-level generals under his command: Ma Sui and Zhang Guifang.
Li Cunxiao felt that these two people were of no use to him. Whether they stayed or not, they wouldn't help him. Therefore, he sent them both to An Xiuxiu's place.
With Ma Sui and Zhang Guifang working together, especially with Ma Sui unexpectedly unleashing the Golden Hoop as soon as they clashed, Hou Qing was caught off guard and injured.
Ultimately, Hou Qing was unable to withstand the combined attack of the two and had no choice but to abandon the main camp and lead his troops in a fighting retreat.
During this process, even the generals Ding Tianqing and Huang Tianhu were stabbed off their horses by Zhang Guifang in the melee and ultimately died on the spot.
General Shang Huaizhu was also killed on the spot by An Xiuxiu after fighting for more than twenty rounds.
Hou Qing led his troops in a chaotic retreat, and An Xiuxiu was not about to let them go easily. She even wanted to follow closely behind the enemy and take advantage of the situation to attack the second camp.
The entire Yueshan defense line was not just one large camp, but rather four large camps were set up along the entire mountain road, built according to the terrain, like four simple passes, blocking the entire mountain road.
It was precisely because four large camps had to be erected at the same time, coupled with the fact that the Han army arrived so quickly, that one of the camps was not yet fully repaired.
However, it was precisely because of this that An Xiuxiu's situation of winning first and then losing followed.
Not long after he chased them out of the main camp, he entered a rugged and difficult mountain path, where a large number of Qian army troops appeared on the cliffs on both sides.
"Release the arrows!" Jiang Wang shouted, giving the order.
Upon receiving the order, thousands of archers lying in ambush on both sides immediately launched an attack. Under the volley of arrows, An Xiuxiu's troops, caught off guard, suffered heavy casualties.
The one stationed at Yueshan Camp was none other than Jiang Chaoyu's biological brother, Jiang Chaoyun. Although the eldest of the three brothers, Jiang Chaoyu, was the leader, the other two were also quite capable in various aspects. Together, they held the northern border of Daqian.
During the chaotic battle among the princes of the Great Qian Dynasty, Jiang Chaoyu's ability to become the strongest in the later stages was not solely due to his own efforts. Rather, it was because his family had been three families united from the beginning, which gave them a significant advantage over the other princes in terms of innate strength.
