Chapter 1531: A Small Group of Enemies
On the way, the forward scouts came back to report the appearance of a small army in the north, numbering about a thousand.
The north is desolate, there is no road, and if you want to destroy this group, you need cavalry to rush into the desert. However, it is very coincidental that this is the case with the navigation route shown on the Golden Circle.
In addition, we also have to respect the trajectory of history, Mai Xiaoji doesn't want to come here to give a command, but when he goes back, he finds that the world has changed.
So, Ji Manli's back sounded with a snoring sound, and the person named Mai Xiaoji didn't seem to sleep well last night, hugging Ji Manli's waist, and actually fell asleep!
Tuoba Tao turned his head to take a look, discussed with several generals, and finally made a decision to go and destroy this group of enemy troops!
Tuoba Tao's idea is not a problem, that is, to gather cavalry, destroy the small Rouran army in batches, and gradually weaken the strength of the other party.
Speeding up the speed of travel, the bumps on the horseback are miserable, how can they have their own bulletproof car is comfortable, what is the meaning of lips and teeth, Mai Xiaoji has a deep understanding at the moment, because they often bump together, and then bite themselves themselves.
"You know the difficulty this time, right? If the bulletproof car is here, do you still need to use this kind of transportation?" Ji Manli knew that Mai Xiaoji was pretending to be asleep, and couldn't help muttering.
"Hehe, why do I think horseback riding is more fun?"
"Hard mouth!
Ji Manli suddenly slammed the horse's belly, and the war horse seemed to be frightened, and its hooves jumped out of the ground and forward. Mai Xiaoji was taken aback, and Ji Manli succeeded in spoofing, but she couldn't help but giggle.
"Don't make trouble, be careful of military law!"
Mai Xiaoji reminded in a whisper, and when he looked back, he was embarrassed to find that everyone was looking at the two. Tuoba Tao had a hint of playfulness in his eyes, and General Zhu Mu, who was following him, was stunned and praised, "The voice is so sweet." ”
Just shouted a voice, so many people were overwhelmed, Mai Xiaoji ignored Ji Manli's objections, tightened her face towel, grabbed her ears and reprimanded, "Ride a horse well, be careful that I beat you!"
There were also a few generals who frowned, and during the march, they also took a couple of husbands and wives to play right away, what kind of physique!
Tanma came back again to report that the Rouran army continued to retreat north.
At this time, Tuoba Tao did not rush to the road, but gathered several generals together, and sent someone to pull Mai Xiaoji, who was pretending to be asleep, over to listen.
"Rouran has always been cunning in the use of soldiers, and the thousand-strong troops have repeatedly fled north, Your Majesty, I am worried, this is a trap. Zhu Mu was the first to raise his concerns.
"General Zhu, your wrist is as thick as my fingers, and you are also born short, so you really don't have much guts!" the other sneered.
It seems that he has long been accustomed to being excluded, Zhu Mu is not annoyed, frowns slightly, and then says: "General He, in your opinion, what should I do?"
"A thousand-strong army is not enough to worry about, and we should chase it down and exterminate it!" General He said with a clenched fist.
The contradiction began to come to the fore, and Tuoba Tao couldn't seem to make up his mind, so he couldn't help asking, "Brother Mai, do you have a high opinion?"
"I'm just a businessman, how can I lead troops to fight!" Mai Xiaoji waved his hand, not wanting to get involved.
Tuoba Tao didn't want to give up, and hinted: "The march is urgent, snubbing Brother Mai, and when you return triumphantly, you will definitely talk to Brother Mai and have a good time!"
Tuoba Tao gestured to the wine glass, knowing that Mai Xiaoji liked these objects. It's too shameful to tempt yourself with benefits, Mai Xiaoji is not happy in his heart, but there is really no need to get along with antiques. Even if it doesn't feel old, it's a first-class craft, and it's easy to take it back and put it at home.
can't come in vain, Mai Xiaoji cleared his throat and gave a compromise solution, everyone looked sideways, but it was also a choice.
"Tell me about the roads in the north. McEgie asked the tanma.
"The Rouran army unloaded its armor and lost its stove, and repeatedly fled north. Twenty miles away from our army, there is a barren mountain, about 100 meters high, but the war horses are not allowed to run. Tanma replied.
Mai Xiaoji nodded, spread his hands and said, "There is another mountain ahead, although it is not high, but you have to lead the horse over." My advice is to send a small force to occupy the mountain first, and then join up with the main army. If you don't see any danger, you can take advantage of the victory and pursue, otherwise, you have to give up. ”
"Hmph, as if you didn't say it!" General He said with his nostrils facing the sky.
"Then what do you say? Directly lead the troops to kill them, or go back?" Mai Xiaoji asked unhurriedly.
"Okay, just according to Brother Mai's words. ”
Tuoba Tao made a decision, but Mai Xiaoji felt quite big, and he had the rhythm of being dragged into the water. It sounds like you came up with the idea yourself, and you are responsible for the results.
As a last resort, Mai Xiaoji didn't pretend to be asleep, and paid close attention to the surrounding movements all the way, waiting for the army to advance to the foot of the mountain, Tuoba Tao ordered to camp in place, and then waited for news from the advance troops.
Mai Xiaoji also came to the high place to look around, and found that this was a mountain range, and further on, there were still large and small hills.
Soon, someone gave feedback, and the figure of the Rouran team had been found from the mountain, and they were able to catch up quickly. It was still early, the enemy army was in front, Tuoba Tao was overjoyed, and immediately ordered to immediately go up the mountain and pursue the Rouran troops.
"Brother Tao, wait!" Mai Xiaoji suddenly stopped.
"Brother Mai, what's wrong?" asked Tuoba Tao, puzzled.
"Don't trust what your eyes can see. Let's hurry up, but the evacuation of Rouran seems unhurried, there should be a problem. Mai Xiaoji said firmly.
"Then what do you say?" General He asked in a loud voice.
"Let me go and find out. Mai Xiaoji pointed at Ji Manli.
Let a woman go to find out the news, or a woman who gave birth to three children for him, even though men are inferior to women, but everyone is very disdainful of Mai Xiaoji's actions.
Zhu Mu frowned, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, my subordinates will send someone to find out the truth again." ”
"No, just listen to Brother Mai. Tuoba Tao waved his hand and nodded at Mai Xiaoji.
In terms of pathfinding, I'm afraid there aren't many people here who can compare to Ji Manli, and they can still fly in the air at a distance, or use binoculars, and Mai Xiaoji doesn't want to be charged with luring the army into an ambush.
Ji Manli rode a horse directly up the mountain, the mountain road was steep and uneven, but she easily controlled, just under the jaw-dropping of everyone, quickly reached the top of the mountain, and then descended the mountain.
Tuoba Tao was also a little dazed, woke up, and let the two soldiers ride up the mountain, but they didn't go far before the two fell off their horses, and the horses were also frightened and neighed.
"Hehe, Brother Mai, your wife is very skilled, and she looks like a master of horseback riding. Tuoba Tao exclaimed.
"It's been raised at home, and she's in charge!" Mai Xiaoji said casually.
