Chapter 259 Surrender alone, run away alone

The guerrilla generals chased forward on their horses, cursing all the way.

After a while, the distance between the two sides narrowed slightly, and the horses in front could be seen galloping.

The advantage of the Han army was that it was easy to wait for work, and their horses had not been used for a long time before.

This is the moment I've been waiting for.

The people in front, both men and horses, were slightly tired from running for a long time.

It's just a matter of time before we catch up. Even if we don't catch up, it doesn't matter. There is still a thousand-man team waiting in front.

It's even more difficult for dozens of them to break through the defense line.

It's simply impossible.

The people fleeing in front had already noticed the movement behind them. At this time, they looked back and found that the distance was getting closer and closer.

I was a little panicked at the moment.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of riders dispersed in all directions.

Fortunately, the cultivated land has been cleared relatively clean these days, and straw is also a good thing, whether it is taken home to make a fire, build a shed, or use for heating.

During the long winter, without the support of these materials, it would be difficult for ordinary people to persevere.

However, winter wheat has not been cultivated in large quantities yet, so the fields are completely bare.

Moreover, the ground is slightly hard, so the horses can run without any problems.

"Tsk, tsk, these people are really determined to give up..." Looking at the cavalry fleeing in front of him, Yang Ye was speechless.

Sometimes he really wanted to catch these people and ask them, why are they running?

Aren't you tired?

It's all a matter of time. It would be great to just come over and surrender on your own. Hello, hello, hello, hello to everyone. Everyone can save some energy and worry.

"Maybe they think they have a tougher life and better luck!" Liang joked with a laugh.

"Shit, if the king wants a person to die today, there is no way he will live until tomorrow!" Yang Ye said loudly.

You know, the arrangement of the Han army is not just scouts, but also guerrilla generals and thousands of troops.

There are also military scouts.

Military scouts are better at conducting reconnaissance operations and counter-reconnaissance operations in hidden places.

Therefore, the king is not hungry and people make the best use of it.

The guerrillas will be responsible for patrolling around the main road, and the thousand-man team will intercept from the rear.

The army's scouts were scattered in other places around to patrol and stand by.

"Chase one person at a time, blow the horn while chasing!" Yang Ye ordered.

Immediately, the guerrilla generals also began to search for their own targets. One of them took out a horn from his body and hung it in his hand, ready to blow it.

This is not the final song, but it tells the surrounding army scouts that someone is coming and is ready to fight.

The two parties did not have a good way of contacting each other, so they could only pass the news in this ancient traditional way.

Yang Ye also fell in love with a group of people.

The others were very scattered, but not this group. There were still about ten people gathered together and running in the same direction.

"Follow me... Huh?" Yang Ye just planned to order the remaining soldiers to follow him in pursuit, but suddenly he noticed something unusual.

Pointing to one of the lone horses, he asked, "Do you see two people on that horse?"

Yang Ye just thought that the horse was a little different before. It was obviously stronger than the other horses, but for some reason, the horse couldn't run as fast as the other horses.

Whether a horse is a good horse or not, for people who often play with horses, they can basically tell it at a glance, even from a distance.

Yang Ye could tell that the horse seemed good, at least it shouldn't behave like this.

"Huh? The general's eyes are really good. It seems like there are really two people..."

"Yes, two people, I saw two heads..."

"It must be a big fish. Here comes a group of people and follow me to chase it. Old Liu, you lead the brothers to chase that group!" Yang Ye was overjoyed and assigned the task instantly.

"General, it's too dangerous to lead only one group of people, why don't you lead some more?" Lao Liu quickly advised.

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. Don't you know my general's martial arts skills? Besides, wasn't there a group of people who were chasing them originally?" Yang Ye laughed, then galloped towards the big fish.

Upon seeing this, Lao Liu quickly arranged for the strongest group of people to follow closely, and he led the others to chase after those people.

Two people and one horse rarely happen, and even if they do, most of them are one boy and one girl.

Or in special scenes, such as grasslands or deserted places.

The current situation is that the Chu army does not lack horses at all.

Even if there is a shortage, there is no shortage of people like them who need to disperse and break out on horseback.

In other words, those who can take this path, or a similar path, are the elite of the Chu army, and they cannot be used as cannon fodder.

The real cannon fodder is now playing with the main force.

And women, for those people, the most indispensable thing in the world is women.

How much of a drag is it to take a woman with you on your escape journey?

Therefore, the person who cannot ride a horse must be a big shot or an important figure who cannot be left behind.

The dozen or so people who fled together formed a sharp contrast with the others, which further confirmed Yang Ye's guess.

Attracting the target gives the real target a greater chance of escaping. This is also the method they will use.

The horses ran harder and harder, breathing heavily from their mouths and noses. The distance between the two sides became closer and closer, and the sound of horns kept coming from behind.

It's beautiful, but also very upsetting.

As time went by, the horses in front ran slower and slower.

There was only less than twenty steps left between the two sides.

"If you want to die, keep running! Prepare your crossbow!" Yang Ye suddenly shouted.

Mounted archery is the most basic requirement for a cavalry, and cavalry training is often divided into three steps: being able to ride a horse steadily, then riding and shooting, and finally combat and action.

However, the cavalry of this era was not easy to train. They had to maintain a good center of gravity and at the same time clamp the horse's belly with their legs.

Riding a horse is not enjoyment, but suffering.

Stirrups already existed, as did saddles, but they were different from those of later generations.

The stirrup is just a rope. It is soft and the knight needs special attention. The biggest problem with this kind of stirrup is that once the horse falls, the feet are likely to be entangled, and then the whole person is dragged away by the horse, even if the opponent does not kill him.

Even if you are dragged along by a war horse for a while, you will be finished.

The saddle is also different, very narrow and small, and what really becomes a boon for cavalry is the high bridge saddle.

"I surrender... I can't run away anymore..." The man on the horse who was being held up said in a crying voice.

too difficult……

The lower legs were so worn that even the cute little baby was about to lose consciousness. He was being chased everywhere like a dog along the way, but he still couldn't escape, couldn't escape...

The war horse slowly stopped.

Yang Ye's face was also full of excitement. He heard what was said on the other side. He called himself lonely...
