Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy

The Zihe River originates from the lofty mountains of Dai County in Youzhou, winds its way northward, flows through the prairie with rich water and grass, and finally flows westward into the Yellow River.

It is precisely because of the uniqueness of the direction of the Zihe River that the lower reaches of the Zihe River have always been the main channel for grassland nomads to enter the Central Plains. At that time, the Dihu Yuwen Department entered the Central Plains along the Zihe River and the Yellow River, and finally captured Luoyang and established the Great War. week.

The Ning Dynasty also learned the lesson of the subjugation of the previous dynasty, established several military forts at the confluence of the Zihe River and the Yellow River, and deployed heavy troops to prevent the Dihu people from using this as a breakthrough to invade the Central Plains again.

From He Liantao's point of view, now that Xiao Jie has assembled an army of 10,000+ to go on an expedition to Mobei, the area along the lower reaches of the Zihe River will inevitably be empty of troops.

On this day, Batur led [-] Dihu cavalry to appear in the lower reaches of the Zihe River. Perhaps as Khan expected, Prince Xiao Jie of Ningguo dispatched a large number of soldiers from the Youzhou Army, leaving the lower reaches of the Zihe River empty. Batur led the army all the way, but he didn't encounter a single Ningguo soldier, and the march was extremely smooth.

And Batur soon led the soldiers into a river valley downstream. This is a mountain stream formed by the Zihe River scouring the mountain for many years. It is more than 20 miles long. It doesn't appear to be congested, and it doesn't affect the speed of the [-] cavalry marching.

Just because the mountains on both sides are tall, there is not much sunlight that can shine into the bottom of the valley, so the valley looks extremely gloomy and cold, which makes the Dihu soldiers tremble inexplicably.

As the general, Batur frowned. To be honest, he didn't want to lead his army through this gloomy river valley, but if he took other routes, he would undoubtedly have to take a long detour, but Khan gave him His order was to invade the hinterland of the Central Plains as soon as possible, and he didn't dare to delay at all. In addition, he didn't find any trace of the Ning army along the way, so Batur finally decided to venture through the valley.

Fortunately, this river valley is only about 20 kilometers away, and their 3 people are all cavalry. It is estimated that they will be able to walk out of the river valley in less than an hour.

Just when Baltu was still thinking about urging the [-] cavalry to speed up their march and walk out of the valley as soon as possible, there was a sudden noise in front of them, and the entire team also came to a standstill.

Batur frowned, and immediately called one of his personal guards, asking him to go ahead to see what happened.

Not long after, his personal guards hurried back and shouted loudly while running: "Master Wan, it's not good, the road ahead is blocked by stones, we can't get through at all."

Batur couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, an ominous premonition suddenly surged in his heart, and he suspected that this might not be a coincidence.

But he didn't bother to ask more questions, and immediately clamped the horse's belly and galloped forward, scaring the Dihu soldiers in front to avoid it.

Soon, Batur saw that the narrow place in front was tightly blocked by dozens of boulders. Although it was not very high, his soldiers could climb over it with bare hands, but their horses at this height were no matter what. Can't even jump over.

Batur didn't say a word, just looked at these huge boulders blocking the road with a frown. These boulders are so big that you can tell with the naked eye that each piece weighs hundreds of catties or even thousands of catties, and it is definitely not something ordinary people can easily move. He had to move, and he looked at the two sides again. The mountain walls on both sides were complete, and there was no sign of the mountain sliding over the slope at all...

Soon, Batur realized something, his face changed suddenly, and he turned around and ordered the soldiers loudly: "Give me the order, the army will withdraw from the valley immediately."

The soldiers looked at Batur in a daze, their eyes full of puzzlement. After all, they had traveled such a long distance in the valley, and now they could move on as long as they moved the stones that got in the way, but Wan Fu Why did the chief want them to withdraw from the valley?

Seeing that the soldiers were motionless, Baltu felt even more anxious. He was about to get angry, but he heard a rumbling sound above their heads. When he subconsciously looked up, he saw huge boulders falling from the sky, attacking them densely like raindrops... …

Seeing the huge boulders falling down, the Dihu soldiers in the valley were in a sudden chaos. Many people and horses were hit on the head by the stones on the spot.

Many soldiers were relatively lucky and were not hit by the boulder, but the shock and sound caused by the boulder landing still made them stagger, unable to stand still, and their heads were spinning for a while...

Seeing another round of stones falling, many Dihu soldiers abandoned their horses and fled. Holding their shields to protect their heads, they ran to the mountain walls on both sides, and stood close to the mountain walls so as to avoid the boulders falling from the top of their heads. ...

The frightened horses lost their restraints and ran wildly in the valley, knocking down many Dihu soldiers, and some of the more unlucky ones were even trampled to death by the horses on the spot, causing even more chaos in the valley...

When Batur saw it, his heart was dripping with hatred, and he immediately shouted at the Dihu soldiers: "Turn the horse's head immediately, and retreat from the valley."

The Dihu cavalrymen all woke up like a dream, and immediately turned their horses and urged their horses to rush towards the other side of the valley...

It's just that the river valley is narrow, and it's inconvenient to move around. Many Dihu soldiers knocked over and trampled on many unlucky companions during their escape. But now is a critical moment, and everyone is only concerned about running for their own lives, so they don't care about others. Life or death...

Batur led the Dihu cavalry all the way to the north along the river valley. I don't know how far they ran. A bright white light could be vaguely seen in front of them. Everyone couldn't help being overjoyed. , they can escape from birth.

But the people like Batur were only focused on rushing forward, and no one noticed that there seemed to be a pungent smell in the valley at this time...

On the top of the valley, Yao Ce could not help but sneer when he heard the sound of horseshoes in the valley below, and then he ordered in a deep voice to the soldiers behind him, "Do it!"

With an order, the soldiers of the Ning Army raised their hands one by one, and immediately threw the torches in their hands towards the river valley under their feet...

In an instant, a raging fire ignited in the river valley under their feet, and then there were bursts of screams from the Dihu people, which was very piercing. Shocked, but Yao Ce remained expressionless, and even had a faint sneer on the corner of his mouth...

Batur finally took the risk of riding his horse through the sea of ​​flames. Seeing that the river valley in front of him was getting wider and brighter, and the light was getting brighter, but when he looked back, there were less than a thousand soldiers who escaped with him behind him. Shen...

It's fine that he was unfavorable, but the casualties are so heavy, how can he explain to Khan.

Just as he was still worrying, there was a clap sound from the front Taniguchi, and a dense rain of arrows shot from the front Taniguchi in an instant. Batur, who rushed to the front, was caught off guard and was shot to death by random arrows on the spot, screaming several times. Falling off a horse and dying...

And the other Dihu soldiers who rushed to the front were not much better. They were all shot into hedgehogs by the random arrows from Taniguchi...

But the Dihu soldiers at the back saw the tragic situation of their comrades in front, but they were still heartbroken, gritted their teeth, and continued to gallop towards the mouth of the valley. After all, there was still a glimmer of life under the chaotic arrows, but if they returned to the valley, they would only be burned by fire. into coke...

Driven by a strong will to escape, hundreds of Dihu cavalry braved the rain of arrows and rushed out of the valley and fled towards the vast prairie...

However, Zhou Yan, the right Jinwu Guard General of Taniguchi, did not order to pursue and kill them all, but just guarded Taniguchi firmly to prevent more Dihu soldiers from escaping...

After about an hour, seeing the fire in the valley gradually extinguished and the smoke gradually dissipating, Zhou Yan personally led a group of soldiers into the valley to give back to every injured Dihu soldier who was not dead, leaving no one behind. live...

After thoroughly clearing the battlefield, Zhou Yan joined forces with Yao Ce and led the troops to the north.
