In a forest about twenty-five kilometers southeast of Chongguang Castle, if you look at this place from the top of a distant mountain, you can only see a single forest, and nothing unusual can be seen.

Even when you look down from the sky, you can still see only a patch of verdant green.

But if you go deeper into the woods, you will see that there is a large group of people leading their horses in the woods.

They wore red breasted shirts and white trousers, which were almost identical to those worn by the cavalry units in Roan County, except for the fact that their tops were too similar.

If you are familiar with the uniforms of the troops in the various feudal towns in Nanhai Prefecture, then you will know that these are the cavalry of the Guang'an Army!

A few years ago, Guang'an County and Luo'an County were actually the territory of Cheng Lingfeng, the garrison envoy of Luo'an County and the county guard of Luo'an County, but later the troops stationed in Guang'an mutinied, which finally led to the separation of Luo'an and Guang'an Counties, which not only interrupted Cheng Lingfeng's continued external expansion, but also directly led to the outbreak of war in the Luoguang region.

In other words, in fact, the Guang'an Army and the Luo'an Army are of the same origin, and the two sides are not only similar in military uniforms, but also very similar in all aspects such as establishment, tactics and even numbers.

These Guang'an cavalry marched silently in the woodland, but at this time, a cavalry rushed in front of them.

After a while, he arrived in front of one of the middle doctors wearing double-breasted military uniforms: "Lord Fang, the Luo An Army's transport team has been found ahead!" ”

Hearing this, Fang Yuanxin said with a happy face: "Where is it?" How many of them are there? ”

It can't be blamed for his happy face and even hurriedly asked, but because he was ordered to lead the army south to attack the supply line of Luo'an County, it has been more than ten days, but he was stunned that he failed to meet a transport team from Luo'an County.

Now that I finally met one, I was naturally a little excited.

The scout said, "They camped for the night near Li Xizhuang, about seven kilometers away from us!" ”

"The little ones have counted carefully, and they have brought at least a hundred wagons of baggage, about three hundred people, and four hundred soldiers to escort them!"

After the scout spoke briefly, he also took out a map that was obviously hand-drawn with charcoal pen, which not only contained brief map information, but also detailed various data.

After Dr. Fang Yuanxin took it and looked at it, he smiled: "It's just right!" ”

"Order, set up camp on the spot, and we will attack in the early hours of tomorrow morning!"

"Send a few more groups of scouts to investigate, but you must not alarm the other party, you don't need to get too close, you can mainly grasp the direction of these people!"

"We'll leave early tomorrow and attack when they're just leaving!"

"Maybe there will be unexpected benefits!"

Doctor Fang Yuan Xinzhong was also an experienced cavalry officer, and he only relied on a small amount of information to make arrangements.

He didn't say immediately that he would attack immediately, because now it was getting dark, and it was not a good thing to continue to rush at night!

It is not said that during the day, the enemy will attack on the way to the march, because the transport troops of these Luo'an troops are on high alert during the march, and there will be scouts and small patrols in all directions in front and rear, and they will be discovered if they get a little closer, and then they will immediately form a vehicle formation to defend on the spot.

When the time comes, it will not be an attack, but a storm.

He thought that if he attacked the enemy in the short time he had just set out, he might be able to find a loophole.

This night, Lin Ziran and others, who camped near Li Xizhuang for the night, did not know that their transport team had been targeted by a cavalry regiment of the Guang'an Army.

But even if they don't know yet, because they are close to the front line, Lin Ziran and Hao Ren are still very careful, and when they set up camp in the evening, they will personally patrol to ensure the safety of the camp and not have any obvious loopholes when the enemy attacks at night.

Relying on a large number of wagons, this temporary overnight camp is more like a temporary defensive line, and the defense line built on the basis of the carriage can effectively curb the enemy's charging speed, especially the effect of defending the enemy's cavalry is quite significant.

Thankfully, there was no incident.

Early the next morning, after Lin Ziran finished dressing and freshening up, he simply had breakfast and discussed today's itinerary with Hao Ren.

The closer you get to the front line, the more dangerous it becomes, especially the official road along the way, some sections of the road are more dangerous, especially one of the canyons, which is a good place to ambush at a glance, and there are several sections of the road close to the dense forest, and you have to be careful that the enemy suddenly kills out of the dense forest.

For this kind of road section, it is necessary to be cautious and cautious.

After the itinerary was preliminarily finalized, the soldiers and civilians of the various departments also had breakfast, Hao Ren led people to start the car and prepare for departure, and Lin Ziran also took the soldiers to start lining up.

In this process, neither Lin Ziran nor Hao Ren realized that on a small hill more than a thousand meters away, several people hid their bodies by the trees, and at the same time, they also took out a single telescope to observe Lin Ziran and them.

At this time, someone stepped forward and said, "My lord, the scouts of the Luo An Thief Army are here!" ”

Before dawn, he was rushing with the troops to discredit, and Fang Yuanxin, a doctor in Guang'an, who rushed to this place to ambush soon after dawn, put down his binoculars: "Oh, how long will it take for them to find us?" ”

The subordinate said: "I guess we will be able to find us in twenty minutes!" ”

Fang Yuanxin smiled: "Then ignore them first!" ”

Then he said to the left and right: "The time is almost up, let the brothers make the final preparations, and we will set off in ten minutes!" ”

"In this way, it doesn't matter if the enemy's scouts find out about us!"

Bit by bit, Lin Ziran saw that Hao Ren was already the commander of the team, and after preparing the convoy, he took out his pocket watch from his arms and looked at it, seven o'clock in the morning.

It's good to be able to complete the preparation at this point in time.

It's winter now, and it's late at dawn, and it's not completely dawn until six o'clock.

After dawn, they had to make a fire to cook and eat, and they had to feed the horses and carts, and finally formed a small convoy of more than ten carriages.

It's good that this food can be made in just an hour.

One of Hao Ren's subordinates ran over: "My lord, we have finished preparations, when will we go!" ”

Lin Ziran said: "Let's go now!" ”

Start early, and by the afternoon you'll be able to camp early for the night to avoid any surprises, so it's a good time to do so.

Immediately, the convoy officially set off, but they had just walked a few hundred meters, and there was still a convoy left in place behind before they set off, and Lin Ziran heard a rumbling sound!

This sound is a bit abnormal!

Looking in the direction from which the sound came, I saw that it was a sparse pine forest, and a large number of birds rose into the air.

Suddenly, Lin Ziran's face changed drastically, and then he saw him draw his sword and raise it high, and shouted at the same time: "Stop moving forward immediately!" ”

"Array!"

"Prepare for war!"
