There are only two possibilities for the enemy,

One is that it is indeed as he said,

Therefore, the number of troops is not large,

Then it must have been evacuated,

The big camp was just an empty camp,

If this is the case,

Then you can recover the lost military spirit.

This is also the best ending that Taka is looking forward to,

Another possibility,

The enemy is waiting for them to attack,

If this is the case,

Then there is a good chance that they will face a bitter battle again,

Or even a fiasco,

However, this probability is not high.

As Tucker said before,

If the other party really has such strength,

Last night was definitely not going to be a simple attack. Fortunately, Tucker had communicated with the commander in advance.

If a large number of enemy troops are found,

Don't be in love with war,

Immediately retreat back to the camp,

Even if the other party is ambushed,

But if you don't take the bait,

can also disrupt the opponent's deployment,

And it can also be used to find out the reality of the enemy.

It can also be said to be a perfect strategy for attacking and retreating.

"Meng Qi, as expected by the right sacrificial wine, those guys sent a large army out of the camp, and the target was our previous camp."

Pound stood behind a boulder,

Looking at the Kushan army in the distance,

On his side is the bored Ma Chao,

Lying flat on the grass,

With a grass root in his mouth,

Basking in the sun with your hands behind your head.

After hearing Pound's words,

He didn't react much either,

Just slowly raise your head,

Squinting and looking,

It hangs high in the sky,

The sun that shines brightly,

The sun is hot,

If you spend a long time on your body, you will feel pain.

But Ma Chao seems to enjoy this state,

He gently spit out the grass roots in his mouth,

"Ling Ming, what am I talking about, the right sacrificial wine is a character hand-picked by the lord, how can it not be powerful, you can act according to the order with peace of mind, you can't be wrong, rest assured!"

The expression on Pound's face fell,

Hurriedly said:

"Meng Qi, I didn't question the meaning of Lord Right, I just said that you need to have some ideas of your own, don't always say what others say......"

Pound was not good at words,

Ma Chao said,

It seems that he has some disdain for the meaning of the right sacrificial wine of the military division,

If you want to justify in a hurry,

But for a while, I couldn't find the right sentence,

This is in a hurry, and his face is already dark,

It turned purple-red,

It's almost time to catch up with the Purple Void Master.

"Hahaha!"

Ma Chao sat up suddenly,

With a gloating expression on his face,

"Ling Ming, look at your nervous appearance, I just made a joke with you."

Pound sat down beside Ma Chao with some dejection,

looked at Ma Chao helplessly,

That look is as resentful as a little daughter-in-law,

It's just matched with his "pretty" appearance of the tiger's back and bear's waist,

It seems so inconsistent.

Laughed at Pound for a while,

Ma Chao finally restrained his smile,

Fingers gently flicked the grass beside him,

The gaze becomes deep and clear,

It's a world away from the cynical appearance before,

"Ling Ming, I know what you mean, but ...... Whew—"

Ma Chao turned his head to look at Pound,

showed a bright smile,

"But I'm really not that piece of material, let me lead the troops to kill, that's absolutely no problem at all, but let me strategize, that's really embarrassing for me. Ling Ming, I know that you and my father both want me to be handsome, but I know myself very well, so I can only be a general. But I'm one of the best generals! ”

Ma Chao's tone was extremely sincere,

The smile on his face is also very sincere,

There is no trace of barely alive disguise,

Pound kept looking at Ma Chaoshen,

After a long time, he finally sighed heavily,

opened his mouth, and was about to speak,

was interrupted by Ma Chao again,

"Ling Ming, in comparison, I think you are more suitable to be the commander of the first army, although you may not be as good as Xu Shu or this military advisor's right sacrifice wine master, but your strategy and wisdom are actually not low, but you have never had a chance to show it."

Pound didn't wait for Ma Chao to finish speaking,

And he turned his head away,

He knew what Ma Chao was going to say next,

I still want to sacrifice the wine Pang Tong to the right or even recommend him directly to Lu Bu,

But Pound has his own plans,

He is a man who knows how to repay his kindness,

Ma Teng took him in at the beginning,

and reuse him,

Give him a platform and an opportunity to exert himself,

I still trust him very much,

Ma Chao is even closer to him like a brother,

He was very grateful to the father and son.

has already made up his mind,

Saddle your allegiance to the father and son,

Therefore, although both father and son wanted to recommend him,

Or did Lu Bu hint before,

He is unswervingly determined to stay by Ma Chao's side,

For this,

Ma Chao is relieved and distressed,

But to have such a brother who is also a teacher and friend by his side,

He also felt very happy.

"Okay, let's not talk about that."

Ma Chao saw that the atmosphere was a little heavy,

Hurriedly changed the topic,

Turning his head to look at the army of the Kushan Empire in the distance,

The corners of the mouth curved in a strange arc,

"Your guest is coming to the door, we have to entertain you."

Pound also turned his gaze,

He smiled slowly, bloodthirsty.

The afternoon sun is very scorching,

Mamel looked up at the sky overhead,

The sun shines down directly from the sky,

It's hot on the body,

It's not even noon,

The sun is already quite full.

Fortunately, now in this canyon,

The wind that passes through the hall,

but he took away the heat completely,

Let them in full armor,

Able to get some coolness.

I received a shocking news this morning,

Tucker's side was attacked last night,

And the losses are very heavy,

The other side used a lot of new weapons,

Let them suffer a painful blow,

Early in the morning, Tucker sent a large army to take the initiative to attack,

Although no important results have been achieved,

But one thing was finally confirmed,

That is, the main forces of the Han army are on the line where Tucker is located,

At the same time, the slave soldiers who went deep into the heavens,

also sent back a message,

In the middle of the sky,

No trace of the Han army was found,

Even on the mountain walls on both sides,

They didn't find the slightest trace of the enemy.

or the traces of an ambush,

As for the top of the mountain,

Not to mention,

Such steep mountain walls,

It's impossible to get up from this side.

As for whether there is any other path,

Mamel wasn't sure,

But he knew that

Even if there were, the Han army did not have enough time to climb it.

Therefore, despite Mingbayi's opposition,

The leader entered the first line of the sky,

I walked for more than two hours in fear,

and did not encounter any ambush,

Only then did I finally let go of my courage,

The first line of heaven is narrow and very long,

The army wants to pass completely,

It will take at least a day or two,

Mamel in order to speed up the passage,

Let the troops be lightly armed,

put all the baggage in the back,

But the main force sped up through the first line of sky,

Although entering the time of the first line of days,

It's been a long time later than those slave soldiers,

But under this chase,

They were all approaching the rear of the slave soldiers.

greedily opened his mouth wide,

Feel the coolness brought by the mountain breeze,

Mamel stretched,

"Mingbayi, how long will it take us to get through this hellish place?"

The young wise man who has been by Mamel's side,

After hearing the question, he hurriedly walked over,

Respectfully report back to Mamel:

"Your Excellency, we have only entered the first line of heaven for two and a half hours, and it will take at least one day and one night to fully pass. This is still on the premise that those slave soldiers can not delay our speed. ”

After hearing Mingbayi's explanation,

Mamel's brows furrowed tightly,

Before he just wanted to pass this line of heaven as soon as possible,

but forgot this important thing,

The slaves had no equipment,

And the meals are the worst,

And basically they won't be fed,

Under these conditions,

Every day people starve to death on the road,

Fortunately, there is a perennial wind blowing here,

The temperature at night is also relatively low,

Otherwise, in the middle of such a hot summer,

There will be a plague.

Under such conditions,

And how fast you expect those slaves to be,

Even if it is to improve their food for these two days,

nor can it be immediately quickened to march at once,

Therefore, the great army led by Mamel,

I also had to slow down.

"Report ——! Emergency military intelligence! ”

Mamel's heart suddenly struck,

looked solemnly in the direction the scout came,

That's at the front of the line,

That is, the direction in which they are going,

What would be the emergency military intelligence coming from there?

The scout came to Mamel,

The terrain here is narrow,

There is simply no way to dismount the luggage,

I had to clench my fists and replied:

"General! Twenty miles ahead, a boulder was found, blocking the way forward, and General Beroka was urgently clearing the obstacle and ordered the villain to come and report it! ”

After hearing the scout's report,

Mamel and Mingbayi's faces changed drastically at the same time,

In the middle of this line of heaven there are boulders blocking the road,

Except that it was made by those Han soldiers,

There could be no other possibility.

"General!"

Ming Bayi hurriedly shouted in a deep voice,

Mamel reacted from shock,

Turning his head to look at him,

"General, you hurry up and retreat to the rear now, it should be too late!"

Mamel was slightly stunned,

Immediately looked deeply at Ming Bayi,

instantly understood what the other party meant,

It is very likely that the Han army has already laid out an ambush,

At this time, it is very dangerous to rush forward.

But now the army has entered the first line of the sky for a distance,

If you want to quit completely,

It's not an easy thing at all,

Comparatively,

Mamel himself stepped back and left this line of heaven,

It's a relatively easy thing to do.

This is also the best way to ensure his safety.

However, if you take this way,

It is necessary to leave one person behind,

Responsible for the stability of this side,

In today's situation,

But it can only be played by Mingbayi,

Mamel thought of this truth instantly,

It is impossible for Mingbayi, who proposed this plan, not to think of it,

But he looked at himself steadfastly,

In this moment,

Mamel for Minbayi,

A hint of something different appeared in my heart,

Suddenly I felt that this guy from a poor background,

It doesn't seem to be so annoying,

It seems that there is a little emotion in my heart,

blurted out a sentence,

"In the future, I will definitely ask for a credit for you!"

The voice has not yet completely fallen,

Mamel has already helped his own commander,

Simply changed the outfit,

Became an ordinary soldier,

The two of them stepped on their horses and galloped towards the back of the team.

Nearby are followed by Mamel's personal guards,

Therefore, there is no need to worry about the leakage of information.

Mingbayi looked up at the sky,

Beyond the sky,

I vaguely saw a bird soaring in the sky,

It seems to be the bird I saw the day before yesterday,

A desolate smile appeared at the corner of Ming Bayi's mouth,

He saw black dots that seemed to wobble on the top of the mountain,

The distance is so far,

He can't see it at all,

However, it is almost certain that

That should be the ambush of the Han army,

It seems that there is nothing wrong with my previous guess,

The Han army had already prepared an ambush,

Just waiting for them to drill into it,

However, Namamel stubbornly argued,

He himself has synthesized all the information,

After careful consideration,

Only then did it conclude that the Han army had not arrived here.

Now that I think about it, whether it's a glimmer of heaven,

It seems that the small cavalry of the Han army was suddenly discovered by the slave soldiers,

Or the 20,000 cavalry found and scattered by Tucker,

and the raid that took place last night,

Including the large Han army that was discovered by Tucker this morning,

I'm afraid it's all deliberate on the other side,

The purpose was to convince them that the Han army had not set up an ambush in this line of heaven.

"Hoo ——!"

After thinking of this,

He let out a long breath,

What a careful mind,

Good atmospheric means,

Mingbayi couldn't help but admire in his heart,

To be able to fight such an enemy,

It's something he's always dreamed of,

But now,

"Oh, defeat is defeat, no matter how many objective reasons there are, it is impossible to deny the existence of such a fact. It's just that...... It's really a pity, how I wish I could fight such an enemy for once......"

Mingbayi thought with infinite regret,

When you meet an opponent in chess, you will meet a good talent,

These are these talented people,

The happiest thing in life,

Mingbayi is known as the youngest wise man of the Kushan Empire,

His power is so strong,

Nature is beyond doubt,

At the same time, his heart is also very high.

Although that Mamel looked down on him,

But in the bottom of Mingbayi's heart,

Why do you look at this noble son in your eyes again?

But for the sake of their own survival,

had to succumb to the identity of the other party,

As for your status in the other person's mind?

Needless to say the usual cold reception and ridicule,

Just before the other party escapes,

The ridiculous words that came out,

I'm afraid that in the eyes of the other party,

This is a great gift.

sneered again,

Mingbayi continued to look at the sky.
