Chapter 431 Liaoze Danger
"Han dog, surrender now!"

"You don't stand a chance anymore."

"If you continue to resist, your death will only be more humiliating."

In the lower reaches of the Liaohe River, the vast plains gradually turned into a deep wetland swamp.

The road was muddy and the army had difficulty moving forward.

The existence of this Liaoze Lake is also the reason why the Liaoxi Corridor will not choose to advance along the coastline at this time.

If you are not careful here, you will find yourself in a desperate situation.

Song Xian, Guo Huai and others were pursued by the Wuhuan cavalry, fighting and fleeing, and were actually trapped in this place of death.

The land of death is full of dangers.

Around Song Xian, Guo Huai and others were muddy swamps and dense reeds, and every step seemed extremely difficult.

From time to time, there were bursts of arrows falling overhead, which were the shameless harassment of the Wuhuan cavalry.

"General Song, we can't go on like this!"

Guo Huai shook off the mud on his feet, his face looking creepy.

Just now, if his teammates hadn’t rescued him, he would have fallen into the swamp and sunk into the pit.

At first, they just wandered around outside, trying to use the muddy terrain to deal with the Hu cavalry, and preferably create an opportunity for close combat.

However, they did not expect that the Hu bandits were obviously more familiar with this place, and kept guerrilla warfare on the edge, forcing them into a deeper situation.

"They use the terrain to their advantage and keep harassing us. If they continue like this, our physical strength and morale will be exhausted."

If a young boy like Guo Huai could see it, how could the great Song Xian not know it?
"Persist. As long as we hold on, victory will surely belong to us."

"Lord Su will not abandon us."

"When he comes, these little chickens and dogs won't be a problem at all!"

Song Xian's voice sounded a little tired, but his will was particularly firm.

If these Wuhuan people hadn't relied on the speed of their horses, they would have been no match for them.

Song Xian also discovered that these Wuhuan people seemed to be driving him further and further away in the same way they were driving their prey.

So Song Xian immediately commanded the army into the swamp.

This terrain is not suitable for large-scale battles as war horses cannot run freely.

As long as they hold on here and wait for help, Lord Su will come to rescue them if he realizes that something is wrong.

"Chief, these Han dogs are really cowards. They can't even curse at us. What should we do?" the soldier asked.

The situation is a bit annoying.

Unexpectedly, the Han people actually hid in the swamp, which slightly reduced the efficiency of their roundup operation.

However, the leader of the battle, Puligai, obviously did not take the situation seriously. He just snorted coldly:
"These stupid Han dogs don't even know that they are just pitiful baits."

"Their reinforcements and their hopes will be destroyed by themselves!"

"We just need to wait. This time, Yan Shi not only summoned almost all the Wuhuan warriors in Liaodong, but also got help from the Han people."

"These Han dogs are already fish on the chopping board, waiting for us to slaughter them!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his men cheered.

There is nothing better than not having to fight hard and wait to reap the spoils in the end.

You know, they had been coveting the Han army's equipment all the way.

Not only were the weapons sharp and shining, but the armor was also a rare item that they were in desperate need of, not to mention there were also a small amount of horse armor!

They were extremely excited at the thought that they would soon be able to use these equipments.

"Oh, I don't know when the fight over there will be over."

"When the time comes, we just need to throw the head of their governor into there, and they will probably collapse and cry immediately."

"Considering the time, it should be almost time for us to finish the work." Feeling the excitement of the soldiers, Puligai also felt a little itchy, so he turned around and looked behind him.

I saw a cloud of dust rolling up on the horizon.

"Haha, here it comes!"

"My fellow lads, prepare to reap the fruits of your victory!"

However, the following scene was slightly different from what he had imagined.

Amid the rumbling sound of horse hooves, a large flag with the word "Su" on it fluttered in the wind.

"Han, Han flag?"

Pulige was horrified:
"How is this going?!"

"Where are Yanshi's ambush troops?!"

"Where are our people?!"

Let’s go back to the past.

Under the temptation of power and beauty, the thousands of tribal coalition forces summoned by Nara Yan rushed out and attacked directly towards Su Yao's reinforcements.

I have to say that their preparations this time were quite sufficient.

Even though they had a huge numerical advantage of several thousand against six or seven hundred, these people still did not underestimate the enemy. They honestly set up an ambush in the fault basin on the west side of the Liaohe River, ready to catch him off guard.

The fault basin is a unique landform in the middle and lower reaches of the Liaohe River.

It is a long and narrow strip of space formed by relatively descending fault blocks between two rock strata of the same nature. The edge of the basin is composed of fault cliffs with steep slopes.

The basin is filled with sediments eroded from the mountains, and water accumulates on top to form lakes and rivers.

The further downstream you go, the more alluvial deposits there are, forming a huge wetland swamp terrain.

Their ambush was set up in the middle reaches before entering the swamp.

A large number of cavalrymen were lying in ambush on the cliff, which formed an excellent ambush point.

As soon as the Han army advanced deep into the enemy's territory, they would rush forward and cut off their retreat.

On one side is the vast Liao River, and on the other side is a desperate swamp.

Those Han troops will have no way to go to heaven or to enter the earth.

"Haha, Tamuto, maybe you won't even have the chance to perform this time. Those Han dogs will be shot to death by my arrows." Subudi smiled.

Tamutuo frowned when he heard this, but did not refute. He knew that Subudi was an excellent archer, and in this basin with complex terrain, bows and arrows could indeed exert great power. However, he was also confident that his strength and bravery would make him unmatched in close combat.

"Hmph, let's see who takes the head of the Han general first." Tamutuo snorted coldly, his eyes as sharp as torches, staring at the distant horizon, looking forward to the arrival of the Han army.

However, they waited and waited, but the Han army did not show up.

Time seemed to stand still, with only the occasional sound of horse hooves in the distance breaking the silence.

Finally, a group of cavalry appeared on the horizon, with dust flying and flags waving. They were the reinforcements led by Su Yao.

"Here they come!" A hint of excitement flashed in Subudi's eyes, and he immediately ordered the archers to prepare.

With his order, thousands of Wuhuan archers quickly entered combat status. They pulled their bowstrings to their full potential, and their arrows were as dense as dark clouds, aimed at the approaching Han army.

"Isn't the number of people in this team a little small?" Tamutuo gripped his hammer tightly, frowning.

However, the battle situation changed faster than their minds could think.

Before they could think, the Han general seemed to have seen through their plan. Suddenly, the entire Han cavalry accelerated and rushed straight towards their side of the mountain wall, with no intention of slowing down or changing lanes.

"what?!"

"Are you seeking death?!"

"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow!"
