Chapter 80: Joining forces

Looking at Gao Yuan's gaze, He Lanxiong smiled and said, "You won't be beating my idea, right?"

Gao Yuan snapped his fingers, "Yes, Brother Helan, are you interested in doing this business with me?"

"In my opinion, this is just a loss-making business!" He Lanxiong held the wine bowl and stared at the slightly rippling wine in the bowl, "Senior brother, it's not me who poured cold water on you, although there are less than five hundred horsemen left in the Hutu Department, but these five hundred horsemen can survive their cruel tribal wars, there is no doubt that they are all elites, and they are all rare warriors, and on the other hand, you and me, more than half of the three hundred people under your command are new recruits, even those veterans, they have fought and experienced life and death?" Even if I am added, yes, I can now make up two hundred cavalry, but among these two hundred cavalry, there are only one hundred cavalry belonging to my Helan Department, and the rest are newly joined last winter, if I win, it will be fine, if I lose, they will immediately abandon me, I finally let the Helan Department have a little improvement, but I don't want to be beaten back to its original form in the blink of an eye, if you push back the time for a year or two, I am willing to join forces with you."

"Where did I wait that long?" Gao Yuan smiled and said: "Brother Helan, what you said is the truth, but what if this is a battle that must be won, will you participate?"

"There is never a guarantee of victory." He Lanxiong shook his head and said. And I really don't see any certainty that you're going to win."

Gao Yuan walked to the wall, holding a charcoal pen in his hand, and began to scribble the map on the wall, and after he completed a few strokes, the terrain between Curie Pass and the old camp of the Donghu tribe was revealed. Throwing away the charcoal in his hand, Gao Yuan walked back to the table, picked up the wine bowl, and took a big sip: "If it is a large army of thousands of people fighting, there is indeed no such thing as victory, any small accident will affect the final direction of the war, but this time, it is just a battle between hundreds of people, the two sides combined, there are not more than a thousand people, such a war, if I am not sure, how dare I mention it to you?" I won't invite you to join, if I have a hundred-man cavalry in my hand, I don't even bother to ask you to share the results!"

Helanxiong shrugged and moved, "Senior brother, are you so confident?"

"Brother Helan, this battle is not a whim, let alone an impulsive desire for revenge, but something I have been thinking about since years ago. This time, as soon as you talk about the details of this tribe, my mind will be even more resolute." Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Helan, let me ask you, what is the most lacking thing if your tribe wants to develop now?"

"Needless to say, one is money, and the other is people!" Helan Xiongdao.

"By the way, I'm not short of people, I'm short of money!" Gao Yuan daxiao said: "This Hutu department, don't you have any money?" They used to be a large army of thousands of warriors, presumably for power, such a tribe, even if it is defeated, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and a little bit of it falls from his fingers, it is enough for the two of us to eat and drink, right?"

Listening to Gao Yuan's words, He Lanxiong's eyes slowly lit up.

"The two of us are in good hands, and there is not much difference in his strength, as long as we plan properly, it is not difficult to win." Gao Yuan strikes while the iron is hot.

"But senior brother, I don't want to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, such a battle, even if I win, it will not be of any benefit to me, my situation is different from yours, if I don't have enough strength, in the blink of an eye, Helan will be annexed by others, in the past few years, I have been walking on thin ice, I don't want to lose my foundation for this unexpected talent, don't make money at that time, but don't spend it." Although Helanxiong was moved, he still had doubts.

"I'm just like you, I treasure the lives of every brother under me, and what I want in this battle is a complete victory at a very small price." Gao Yuan swears authentically.

"I don't know what the senior brother has to do? How confident you are?" Helan Xiong was completely hooked by Gao Yuan, his eyes widened, and his eyes were full of excitement.

"Brother Gao, there are roughly two points in time when the Donghu people rob my Dayan every year, one is before the autumn and winter, they want to store grain for the winter, and the other is the turn of spring and summer, at this time, the grain robbed in winter is exhausted, and the cattle and sheep have not yet grown, and a series of work such as breeding livestock has also been completed, and they will come out to grab a handful when they are idle and hungry, and the situation of the Hutu people is now worse than that of the ordinary Donghu people, so I estimate that the time for them to come out to loot will be advanced, If my expectation is right, they should come out and rob us at the end of March and the beginning of April. When that happens, we will be able to set a trap for him!" Gao Yuan waved his arm and said.

"But how can you be sure that he will definitely come to rob you instead of bypassing the Curie Pass to rob some other cottages, in my opinion, it is easier to rob those cottages than to rob you, especially the current Curie Pass, no matter how you look at it, it is not a bone to gnaw on!" He Lanxiong shook his head and said.

"Brother He, don't worry, whether he robs me or not, the result of zuihou is the same, of course, if he comes to rob me, then it will be easier. We can use the walls to inflict some damage on them." Gao Yuandao.

"What are you going to do?" He Lanxiong finally had some confidence at this time.

Gao Yuan walked to the map, "Helanxiong, please look, Hutubu is here now, you are here, a little farther away, so for the sake of this Jihua, you have to approach this side slowly, without a trace, just until you reach a suitable distance, and we are Curie Pass, at this point. If the Hutu don't come out, we definitely can't take the initiative to attack him, it's not brave, it's brainless, and they will be easily defeated, so our first step is to wait for him to attack. And Brother Helan, you have to be responsible for another thing before this, that is, to find out the specific time when the opponent may attack, you are all nomadic tribes, I believe that when the opponent is preparing for a war, you will definitely be aware of certain signs."

"Of course. It takes some time to prepare our weapons, horses, and assemble before we decide to start a war!"

"That's enough, when you determine the time of this attack, you will notify me immediately, and I will lead an elite out of the level as soon as possible and ambush this place!" Gao Yuan nodded to a certain point on the map, "This is a good place to hide a force from being discovered, and more importantly, Hu Tubu will never think that we will dare to go out of the pass, so he will not detect whether there is an ambush around at all."

"You're going to ambush him halfway?" Helan Xiong said in surprise.

"How is that possible?" Gao Yuan shook his head again and again, "I take a hundred people to ambush a cavalry of four or five hundred people?" My brain is not in the water, this is not an ambush, this is looking for death!"

He Lanxiong stared at the map for a long time, and suddenly jumped up, "You want to attack his old camp!"

"Yes, Hutu is pouring out, and I'm going to fight his old camp." Gao Yuan sneered: "So, whether he is going to attack the village that disturbs my Fufeng, or directly attack my Curie Pass, I won't pay attention, I'll go and fight his old camp."

"Then what should I do, attack him halfway!"

"Brother Helan, after I attacked his old camp, I will let some people go and report to the Hutu soldiers, what do you say they will do when they get the news?"

"Of course, it's desperate to rush back!" Helanxiong said without thinking.

"By the way, they ran all the way to raid and rob, and after learning that the old camp was attacked, they ran back all the way frantically, will there be a loss of their horsepower?"

Helanxiong's eyes lit up.

"The old camp was attacked, they were in a hurry to rush back, will the team still be very neat, is it that some horses are fast, some horses are slow, some are better riding, and some are slightly worse riding? Are they going to stretch the line very long?" Gao Yuan's eyes narrowed.

Helanxiong's eyes are getting brighter and brighter.

"You don't have to stop them all, you just have to cut this team in half and stop the second half." Gao Yuan's tone was already murderous: "And at this time, my team in the Curie Pass will also attack at the right time, and attack these cavalry who are left behind with you, or you just need to drive them together, and my brothers will be able to settle the battle!"

"After we finish dealing with these people, we will come to your aid and destroy the remaining Hutu cavalry!" He Lanxiong slapped his face and said excitedly.

"That's right!" Gao Yuan daxiao picked up the wine bowl, "To do it, or not to do it?" Gao Yuan is a pun.

"Of course you have to do it!" He Lanxiong excitedly raised the wine bowl, the two bumped into each other heavily, looked at each other and smiled, raised their necks, and drank it all.

Decided to join forces, the two sat down at the table excitedly, and began to discuss some details, before they knew it, it was already the early morning of the next day, until the loud sound of bull horns and the noisy sound of soldiers getting up in the barracks, the two of them realized that the night had passed.

Although he didn't sleep all night, He Lanxiong was not tired, "As long as everything is as we do, it will be difficult for us to lose this battle."

"We've thought of every detail, every possible change, if we still can't win, I might as well buy a piece of tofu and crash to death!" Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"Who's going to die, who's going to be killed?" He Lanyan, who had been drunk all night, finally woke up, opened her sleepy eyes, and looked at the two of them a little blankly.

Gao Yuan and He Lanxiong glanced at each other, and they both let out loud daxiao.
