Chapter 200
Liu Meng didn't feel sorry for this little loss, there is no one who survives a war.

A camp of 2 people was attacked at night, and only a few people died, so there is nothing to be dissatisfied with.

After only waiting for a while, I saw more than 100 rebels riding past the rear camp, watching Liu Meng and his party from a distance.

When Liu Meng saw it, he immediately ordered to retreat slowly and fish.

As expected by Liu Meng, most of the scouts behind him separated out and chased after them.

The scouts who checked the situation clearly returned to the central army, and the left and right armies reported the situation of the incoming enemy.

When An Lushan learned that there were only 15 cavalrymen who came to attack the camp, he was so angry that he cursed Liu Meng for his audacity. He dared to attack his [-]-strong army with only [-] cavalrymen;
He even scolded his second son, who deserved it to death.

Despite the scolding, An Lushan still ordered Cui Ganyou and Cai Xide to lead [-] cavalry to chase and kill Liu Meng's [-] cavalry.

Cui and Cai were very happy when they got the order.

You must know that since the expedition, An Lushan made Shi Siming the vanguard general, and the cities that came along the way were basically taken by Shi Siming.

But the two of them didn't win any battles in the Anlu Mountain camp, and they lost a lot of military exploits.

Now leading [-] cavalry under orders, chasing and killing a mere [-] cavalry is not a military feat that can be easily captured.

Neither of them took Liu Meng's 2 cavalry seriously. Even if these [-] cavalry had just attacked the [-]-strong camp of the rear army, they didn't care.

When they thought about it, it was all An Qingxu's fault, who told him not to arrange patrol posts at night, and he was too sleepy.

It is justifiable to be killed by a surprise attack.

Liu Meng's cavalry walked forward slowly, first to rest their horsepower, and second, to wait for An Lushan to send cavalry to pursue them.

It is good to introduce the chasing cavalry to the site where the explosives are buried, and wipe out the cavalry forces in Anlu Mountain in one fell swoop, laying the foundation for the subsequent annihilation battle.

Sure enough, after only two miles away, the sound of horseshoes came from a distance of one mile behind.

Liu Meng turned his head and took a look. Under the image of Dongfang Yubai, a large area of ​​cavalry like a torrent could be vaguely seen, chasing them quickly.

Just looking at it with a blink of an eye, the number of cavalry is no less than [-], which is also expected by Liu Meng.

After all, he only had [-] cavalry, and the opponent could send [-] cavalry in pursuit, which was already enough to look up to Liu Meng.

Without hesitation, Liu Meng issued an order, and all the cavalry began to accelerate and rushed to the preset location.

Behind him, the rebel scouts and the cavalry of Cui and Cai followed closely behind.

The two armies were chasing each other at a distance of about [-] meters.

Soon, two miles away, I ran to the spot under the hooves of galloping horses.

Liu Meng led two thousand cavalry and quickly passed through the middle passage. On both sides of this short 100-meter passage, there were buried explosives.

After rushing through the passage and continuing to rush about 100 meters, Liu Meng ordered the cavalry to stop, turned their horses around, and waited for the [-] cavalry to come after them.

Cui and Cai rushed to the front, and suddenly saw the two thousand cavalry in front stopped, and they couldn't help being suspicious.

However, on the left and right sides of the 2000 people, there were a large number of horse traps and horse rejections, and roughly [-] infantrymen were seen hiding behind the horse rejections.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and continued to chase after him.

When the two of them thought about it, it was considered that the other party had an ambush in advance, but only 5000 people, in the eyes of [-] cavalry, it was nothing at all.

It only takes at most two back and forth charges to crush the 5000 Tang army to pieces.

Soon, [-] cavalry entered the ambush area, and Liu Meng's order to light the fire came out.

Amid the sound of war drums, the infantry on both sides hit the ground, and a thousand soldiers on each side put their bows and arrows, and the arrows ignited beside the fire, aiming at the open ground in front of them.

There is the lead wire position reserved by these explosive packages. In order to facilitate ignition, these lead wires are knotted with each other, forming a dense lead wire network like a spider web in the open space.

In other words, as long as there is a rocket and one of the fuses is ignited, then all the explosives will be ignited.

At that time, there will be continuous explosions in the open area of ​​the field that is tens of meters long and nearly [-] meters wide.

These explosive bags are filled with fine gravel, ceramic fragments, iron breakers and so on.

These things, under the force of the explosion of the explosive package, can easily penetrate the armor of these cavalrymen.

You know, these cavalry are not heavy armored cavalry, but they can't withstand the bombardment of fragments denser than bullets.

Even if they were lucky enough to avoid the shooting of these fragments, they could not escape the shock wave attack generated when the explosive package exploded.

In addition, their war horses are all war horses that have not experienced the baptism of explosions. With the sound of explosions, it is strange that the war horses are not startled.

Soon, half of the [-] enemy troops had already entered the explosion range of the explosive package.

In Liu Meng's formation, rapid drums sounded continuously, and the pawns on both sides heard the sound, and shot the burning arrows in their hands at the same time.

Cui and Cai also saw the burning arrows shot from the opposite side, but they didn't take it seriously.

Not to mention the flaming arrowheads, because the flaming objects were entangled and the sharpness was reduced, they couldn't penetrate the armor on them at all.

Even the sharpest steel arrows in the Tang army could not stop the charge of [-] cavalry.

Unfortunately, the guesses of the two were completely wrong. The main target of these arrows was not to kill people at all, but to ignite the fuse.

Then, the two galloping on the galloping horse saw a strange scene.

After these fire arrows hit the ground, a lot of smoke came out from the ground, and countless sparks could be vaguely seen, splashing out.

Before the two of them understood what was going on, they heard a loud noise coming from their ears.

Because the two were chasing in the middle, they were lucky not to set foot on the range of the explosive packs on both sides, and escaped the fate of being directly blown to pieces by the explosive packs.

The war horse under him was frightened by the sound of the explosion, and he couldn't control it immediately. He stood up and let out a shrill neigh.

This is not over yet, and then, continuous explosions sounded one after another, densely.

The war horses could no longer be controlled by others, and they ran wildly.

The horses colliding with each other knocked the cavalry on their backs to the ground one after another, and they were trampled to death by countless horseshoes.

The cavalry who directly entered the range of the explosive package was even more miserable. Many cavalry, including men and horses, were directly blown into pieces by the explosive package.

The cavalry on the edge were not much better, countless fragments were shot out, like bullets, piercing through their armor, and then burrowing into their flesh.

With luck, he hit the vital point directly, died on the spot, and was spared from being trampled and tortured by the war horse.

All of a sudden, the 2 cavalry troops were in a mess, and from time to time, the screams of the soldiers before they died, mixed with the neighing of the horses, could be heard far away.
