This dry bone mountain road in Yin Mountain, it is really too difficult to walk, no wonder there is the name of dry bones, even if there are pack horses carrying sundries, after walking out of thirty or forty miles, they are also exhausted, in order to prevent the horses from losing strength and fat, they have to find a place to rest and rest.

People and horses are crowded in one place, competing for a slightly drier rock or high ground, some people have already dismounted to rest, while others are still unable to find a suitable place, and it is chaotic for a while.

Walking in this kind of ghost place for a day, no matter who it is, is already tired and soft-boned, although it is said that Xianbei people have survived in the bitter cold place, but it does not mean that these people are iron-beaten, they will not feel tired, and after their energy and physical strength are exhausted, they are also decadent and there is no difference between ordinary people.

What's more, this heavy rain is pouring down, and no one can do it, well, except for the dozen or so freaks in the Xianbei Royal Court......

At this time, the Xianbei soldiers and all those who did not have their turn to be on duty on the guard task were all lying or sitting, and they couldn't wait to move in the muddy water for the rest of their lives, only the dozen or so warriors who belonged directly to the Xianbei royal court still looked fierce, and they were full of people and horses to do early warning and sentry in the surrounding area.

The Hu people are also human beings, and they also want to eat, so they finally unloaded their feet, and began to make a fire to cook, but the surrounding land is wet, and it is very difficult to make a fire, and many people have failed many times in a row, making the entire mountain valley road black and miasma for a while.

After tossing for a while, someone finally started a fire, and immediately many Xianbei soldiers came over, sat around the fire, and baked clothes.

On the largest rock on the side of the mountain road, a thick layer of leather cushions was laid, and on top of the leather cushions, sat the strong man who led the Xianbei team, sitting in a saddle, with his feet raised high, looking very casual.

Beside this strong man, several warriors of the Xianbei Royal Court sat around. These sturdy and sturdy Xianbei people's leather robes were tied diagonally around their waists, and few of them wore armor, although they had also walked for a day, they did not show much fatigue at this time. There were also a few people walking their war horses, and the two people on the other side did not ask for the help of other Xianbei soldiers, and they had already raised a bonfire on the rock, set up a pot around the bonfire, roasted the dried meat, and boiled hot soup.

Hundreds of miles of long-distance running, a heavy rain that is grounded and grounded, it seems that for these people, there is no impact at all, and I don't know how these Xianbei royal court warriors can survive so much, it seems that after a day's march, it seems that the energy of the whole body has not been completely used up!

The sturdy and humble man led by him did not put on any majestic shelf, leaning obliquely on the saddle, like a tiger lazily lying in the sun, squinting his eyes, looking like a man and animal are unharmed, even the jokes of his sons and daughters, there is also a match or not a match, from time to time haha laughed a few times, even the water bladder and roasted meat strips thrown by others are not hesitating to take over to eat and drink, rubbing the black hair on the face is oily.

The other ordinary Xianbei soldiers were not as leisurely as this strong man, not only to prepare their own food and drink, but also to talk about the cattle around them to serve well, and at the same time to make the bonfire larger, so that the soil around the bonfire could be dried with the help of fire, and they could sleep comfortably at night.

When it was the turn of the guard, they had to eat two bites quickly, and then set off to move forward, and those who did not have their turn should also check the items covered with felt cloth on the pack horse to see if there were any wet, and they needed to be tidied up, and almost everyone was busy and messing around.

"Honorable warrior, Turul," a warrior of the Xianbei Royal Court turned to the Xianbei man sitting at the top of the big rock and asked, "Do you think you want to send some men to the front first?" ”

"Are you afraid that the Han dog will come?" Another Xianbei warrior laughed, as if he had heard some joke, and said, "Who is going to be in a hurry except our brave sons and daughters in this weather?" And once the dogs get the news of our arrival, it's too late to think about it......"

"But if you don't send someone to the dry bone crossing in front of you......" explained the Xianbei man who spoke earlier, "if someone is blocked over there, it's ......."

The dry bone road not only describes that you must be ready to become dry bones at any time when you walk this road, but also describes that this road is like a corrupt dry bone, with slightly larger ends and a narrow middle with a bayonet......

"Turkin, do you mean Han dog? Haha......" Turul took a few sips of water, then threw the water bladder back to the person next to him, and then said lazily, "These Han dogs are so thin that they can slap two with one slap!" What if the crossing is blocked? ”

The Xianbei warrior Turkin, who was the first to speak, opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Perhaps in the eyes of most Xianbei people, the Han people are relatively weak, and when they saw the Xianbei soldiers, their first reaction was not to resist but to flee, but they didn't know that such behavior would not only not allow them to escape the disaster, but would inspire the cruelty of the Xianbei people.

He has also seen some Han Chinese, brave and strong, even compared to the warriors of the Xianbei royal court, they are not much worse......

But since Turul, as the commander, said so, he is not good at repeatedly emphasizing and refuting, don't look at Turul now looking smiling, everything is easy to talk about and discuss, but once provoked, when the three or five royal court warriors are furious, they may not be able to suppress it, so forget it.

The night gradually fell, most of the Xianbei people entered a state of rest, but Turkin was a little tossing and turning, difficult to sleep, I don't know why, he didn't care about it before, but this evening he raised the possibility that the Han people would block the crossing, although Turul refuted, but this thought has been lingering, and he has never been able to let go.

Yes, normally speaking, it is impossible for the Han people to send troops to such a remote and difficult place when the fighting in Yinshan is fierce.

But what if?

If the crossing is blocked, in case it will not be able to rush through for a while and a half, it will not be able to break through the blockade of the Han people, and a large number of troops will not be able to spread out in the narrow crossing......

It's okay to say for a day or two, but what about three or four days?

Although there are a lot of water bladders, but whether it is a person or a horse, the daily consumption of water is very large, now that the rain has stopped, the road will become more convenient and easy to walk, the same will also bring a large consumption of drinking water, if you can not get out of this crossing in time, to the west of the crossing Wuliangsu Daze to replenish drinking water, then it means that there is a possibility of water outage leading to the destruction of the whole army.

Turkin flipped around, and finally sat up, looked at the sky, and then made up his mind that when the day dawned, he would persuade Turul again, but it was really not good, so he took dozens of Xianbei warriors from his headquarters to the crossing in advance......

………………………………

Although the rain stopped, hundreds of horses galloped and trampled, and the grass was still splashed with mud.

This is a team of pure light horsemen, one man and two horses, in addition to the war horse and a pack horse, but this pack horse has nothing on the horseback, only some cloth bags and ropes.

In order to increase the speed, the cloth bags on the pack horses behind are basically filled with dry ingredients and fried beans eaten by war horses, and some space must be made to carry some special equipment, so there are very few supplies for personnel.

War horses are a very cumbersome creatures, completely a grass belly, if you can't fill it, then you will lose your strength, even if it is green on the prairie, you also need to add some material to the horses from time to time, otherwise it is just a pure free-range wild horse, endurance and strength will be a lot worse.

Speaking of which, there are animals that are more powerful than horses, some that are smarter than horses, and even less trouble-free than horses, and there are also those that do not require human energy to take care of, but for war, in terms of speed, explosiveness, and organization and coordination ability, there are only animals like horses that can meet the needs of war.

Zhang Liao took this team of cavalry and rushed to the dry bone mountain road of Yinshan alone.

What is the situation in the dry bone mountain road now, what kind of opponent will be ushered in, for Zhang Liao, there is no information.

However, Zhang Liao agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Everyone knows that if you want to make a career on the battlefield, it will always be easier to come up on the front battlefield than on the side battlefield. It's not that the enemy's swords and guns on the frontal battlefield are not powerful and there is no danger to life, but there will be more enemies encountered head-on, and there will be more chances to naturally obtain the first rank, and the logistics will be better.

The side ones, of course, are good, but if the front collapses, no matter how good the side is, there is generally nothing that can be done, so they can only retreat together silently......

Zhang Liao had a good idea of the situation of the large army commanded by Fei Qian, there were cavalry outflanking him, foot soldiers who could be hard knocked on the front, and strong crossbowmen who provided stable battlefield protection and output. And the opponent is basically the Xianbei cavalry that belongs to the light cavalry, when facing such a mixed formation on the frontal battlefield, the shortcomings of these Xianbei cavalry will be magnified, and there may be a little chance to attack the flank, if the frontal resistance is hard, the result is only one way to retreat.

Therefore, as long as you follow the large army, this battle is basically in hand.

But at this time, he was transferred to the dry bone crossing of Yin Mountain.

Zhang Liao had recruited 800 Qiang cavalry before, but later lost some, and Fei Qian added some Han cavalry from Bingzhou, and then collected the number of 1,000.

Although Zhang Liao himself didn't say anything, the cavalry led by Zhang Liao muttered a little. In the eyes of these ordinary soldiers, even if they are worried about the distance so far away from the dry bone crossing of Yinshan Mountain, it is enough to send someone casually and bring a few hundred soldiers and horses to cover it, what else can happen?

What kind of thing was Xianbei before, leading so many soldiers and horses, it wasn't overturned by a slap, what kind of Xianbei reinforcements may appear now, and there is no one in the eight characters......

It's not that there are no rules between the military, it's just that as an ordinary soldier, there are also some personal guesses, although they don't necessarily make any moves, there are still some complaints or something, after all, the so-called first sentence, it is still these soldiers who break their legs and risk their lives, and it can't be said that they defend the people, right?

In particular, some petty officers, who were relatively well-informed, cobbled together some rumors and speculations, thinking that they had figured out the goal of this trip and what they were going to face next.

Now under the command of General Fei Qian, the most trusted and reused is none other than Captain Huang Xu, well, now he has been promoted to military Sima.

Under Fei Qian, although there are many captains, the two most important armies, one of which is the strong crossbowman, is now basically under the direct control of Huang Xu. And the other heavily armed Modao soldier belongs to Fei Qian's direct pro-guard team, of course, Huang Xu has also been the commander of the pro-guard team before, and now the commander of the pro-guard team is Huang Xu.

Of course, because of Huang Cheng and Huang Xu's background, Fei Qian will naturally be closer, which is understandable, Huang Cheng and Huang Xu basically obey Fei Qian's orders and calls unconditionally, which is also something that other soldiers can't do even if they envy it.

Then the second best thing is to compete for the second echelon among several captains.

Ma Yan Ma Yue's father and son are generals who belong to the early merger states, and their qualifications are naturally older, occupying the top position in the second echelon, and there is nothing to dispute, but the next position will rise and fall, and no one can say that they must surpass anyone.

Especially like Zhang Liao, although he had a short cooperation with Feiqian before, but he was separated, and he only returned to Feiqian before that, so it is naturally difficult to say how high the ranking is.

Before the soldiers, they must be arrogant and have some thoughts of not admitting defeat, so in the eyes of most generals, they will turn a blind eye and will not punish them. So when Zhang Liao's subordinates were muttering some complaints, Zhang Liao didn't hear them and ignored them.

Now Zhang Liao just wants to rush to the Yinshan Dry Bone Road as soon as possible to seize the best geographical location!

Now the rain has stopped, but in the far north, I still see some dark clouds piling up, and no one can really pack a ticket to say whether it will rain again in the future. Far away above the Yinshan Mountain Range, after the heavy rain, layers of white fog shrouded in the middle of the mountainside, if you put aside some discordant factors, it is really a beautiful scenery in the world, but now no one knows, under this layer of white fog, what is hidden, what is the fate of these people waiting for Zhang Liao......
