This was the visual difference between downstream and upstream. Looking from downstream to the top of the Tiger Subduing Slope, it was not as steep as a mountain.
However, it was also because of this that the two hundred thousand scarecrows that were injured from a hundred miles away looked like an orderly army!
Moreover, when Kirby saw the Youzhou soldiers at the forefront who were dyed red with blood and the baleful and awe-inspiring aura that seemed to have condensed into a substance, his heart trembled even more.
This was an incredible army, and they were definitely the iron-blooded soldiers of the Great Han Dynasty!
"Two hundred thousand soldiers…"
The Xianbei cavalry commander looked at the 200,000 scarecrows that the Youzhou army had formed, and his face turned extremely pale!
If these 200,000 soldiers were like the 20,000 Youzhou soldiers that the King of Yan had brought with him, what was the point of fighting?？
Even if the other party did not have cavalry, they should be able to push them away!？
120,000 versus 200,000 wasn't a huge difference, but if these Youzhou soldiers were like before…
He felt that his Xianbei army would be wiped out!
"Commander, we can't move anymore!"
The cavalry commander quickly said to Kirby.
"All troops, camp here for three days!”
Kirby took a look at the terrain of the Tiger Subduing Slope, and his expression flickered. Then, he gave up on charging directly!
If the Youzhou Army prepared boulders or hid cavalrymen behind them, they would definitely suffer heavy losses and would not be able to charge up!
This was also the reason why Liu Yu chose the Tiger Subduing Slope.
Of course, if Gongsun Zan had 120,000 troops and chose to defend this place, it might also be at the Tiger Subdue Slope!
Fighting from a higher position had a geographical advantage.
Moreover, the Tiger Subdue Slope was so long that the cavalry's charge and the impact of the boulders would multiply!
Therefore, Kirby could only stop temporarily.
The Xianbei army's advantage in numbers was gone. Now, he had to think of a way to solve the problem of the terrain!
"Eh? Did the enemy really stop and set up camp?”
On the Tiger Subdue Slope, the black-armored cavalry saw the Xianbei army gather and were all prepared for battle.
But now that they saw the Xianbei army, they all looked at Liu Yu in shock.
Could it be that the Xianbei army was really intimidated by the 200,000 scarecrows?
However, this scarecrow that picked up scraps like trash could still intimidate an army of more than 100,000!？
It was as unbelievable as a dream.
"Nothing's impossible. Have 20,000 Youzhou soldiers change shifts every half a day. After two days, we will prepare for the final battle!”
Liu Yu spoke with an extremely serious expression.
Now that the Xianbei army had set up camp, it was clear that they wouldn't attack for a while, so they couldn't let anything happen.
However, Liu Yu was not particularly worried about the emergence of clues.
It was almost night time, so it was obviously impossible for a war to break out.
Moreover, the Tiger Subduing Slope was brightly lit. At a glance, there were 200,000 troops.
As for the problem that was most easily seen during the day, Liu Yu had the hundred black-armored cavalry split into two teams, rotating every half a day like the Youzhou Army.
Then, he rode his warhorse in front of the 200,000 scarecrows, waving the array flags and pretending to practice the array.
The dust that hung up didn't scatter all day, and it looked fierce and powerful, making Kirby, who was downstream, look even more serious and solemn.
"What should we do?"
In the Xianbei army's commander tent, Ke Bineng frowned. Their original 200,000 soldiers had lost 70,000, and their surrender was no match for the Youzhou army.
The terrain and manpower were all on the Youzhou Army's side, and they simply couldn't find an opportunity to attack.
Moreover, looking at the black-armored cavalrymen who practiced war every day, Kirbineng was certain that there were cavalrymen among the two hundred thousand Youzhou soldiers.
At this time, the threat of geography was even more terrifying!
"Perhaps we can wait for the right time!"
One of them frowned and said," If it rains again, the road will be muddy. The threat of the boulders and cavalrymen will be infinitely reduced. But then, we can start charging and fight head-on!”
On rainy days, the impact of the cavalrymen and the falling boulders was indeed huge. They could only wait for the right time.
"Looking at the stars last night, there will definitely be a heavy rain in three days!”
This person spoke again. He was one of the military strategists of the Xianbei army.
The Xianbei people made a living by herding livestock, so they naturally knew some astrology.
"Then let's wait for three days!"
Since Kirby could speak, this was the only choice he had!
Of course, they could also choose to retreat.
……
Liu Yu, who was on the Tiger Subduing Slope, had also observed the astrology, and his expression became even more indifferent.
"We will expose the secret of the scarecrows tomorrow. Tonight, we will bring 100,000 scarecrows back to Shanggu County and hand them over to the White Horse Righteous Servants.”
Liu Yu began the final arrangements.
There would be a heavy rain the day after tomorrow, and his plan had to start and end before the rain the day after tomorrow!
And now, Shanggu Prefecture had everything they needed. They were just waiting for Liu Yu to arrive with the 120,000 Xianbei troops!
Moreover, the heavy rain the day after tomorrow had solved a big problem for Liu Yu!
