Chapter 1072: The Grand Canyon is ambushed

"Strategist, these are the news collected by the spies in the past few days." Zhao Yun handed the stack of letters in his hand to Jia Xu.

The news sent back by the spies was no problem in Zhao Yun's opinion, but in Jia Xu's eyes, he might be able to see something different and guess Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's movements.

Jia Xu took the letter, rode on horseback, looked at it one by one, and swayed with the horse, as if he might fall off the horse at any time.

Although Jia Xu is a strategist, he grew up in Xiliang since he was a child, and he is also very good at riding.

Not to mention that his current feet are still stepping on stirrups, even without these, Jia Xu can sit firmly on the back of the horse.

Jia Xu saw very quickly, these spies were all trained, and what they wrote was what they saw and heard, and they would not have their own guesses.

It doesn't add oil and vinegar, and what you see is what you see.

Jia Xu looked very relaxed, and while watching, he was also practicing what these spies had written in his mind.

It was as if he was himself, in Linhai City, watching all the movements of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu with his own eyes.

One by one, the pictures were connected, and many things that the spies did not find began to emerge in Jia Xu's heart.

"Strategist, have you found anything?"

Zhao Yun saw Jia Xu put down the letter in his hand, so he asked.

"It's hard to say right now." Jia Xu said: "Be careful, the army is still at the current speed, there is no need to worry." ”

"Zilong, where is the map?"

Zhao Yun took out the map from his arms, and the map was drawn on silk cloth.

And it uses a lot of colors, which is very conspicuous.

However, if it falls into the hands of ordinary people, it will only be because it is scribbled, and it is difficult to understand the meaning of those signs on the map, and the difference between those color gradients.

Jia Xu and Zhao Yun have all learned from Zhao Hui, although there are many colors and lines on the map, but they don't feel messy at all.

There is no need for a sand table, as long as he looks at this map, Jia Xu can directly form a sense of picture in his heart.

Knowing how far ahead, there are mountains, and there are rivers twenty miles ahead.

These distances, all measured by myself, are proportional reductions of reality.

"Has there been a scouting here?" Jia Xu pointed to the map and said.

Zhao Yundao: "I have sent someone to investigate, but I have not found it yet." ”

Zhao Yun is also experienced in a hundred battles, and along the way, he has been staring at the map, although the map is in Jia Xu's hands, but every road, river, and mountain range on it has already been imprinted in Zhao Yun's mind.

Jia Xu could see that it was a place that was easy to be ambushed, and Zhao Yun had already discovered it.

Although the enemy army has not been found ambushed here for the time being, Zhao Yun still sent a large number of scouts to guard there.

If Sun Ce's people appeared, they would be discovered immediately, and then quickly report to Zhao Yun.

Jia Xu nodded and didn't say anything more.

Although he had read a lot of news sent back by the spies, he was still not completely sure whether Sun Ce and Zhou Yu would attack.

The army continued to advance, and only then did it stop and set up camp just as the sun was about to set.

And today, in the whole day, the 50,000 army only walked more than 30 miles.

If the Zhao army is advancing at full speed, it will be less than a hundred miles a day.

Even if the soldiers have a load to carry forward, they can travel fifty miles in a day.

But now, I only walk more than 30 miles a day.

When resting at night, Zhao Yun also sent many soldiers to take turns to guard.

Prepare for Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to come and attack.

But it was quiet at night, and there were no surprises.

After dawn, the 50,000 Zhao army waited for a while, and after Zhao Yun received the news sent back by the spies and made sure that there were no ambushes in front, he led the army to continue to advance.

"Zilong, I dare to say that something is wrong."

Along the way, Jia Xu was pondering.

"How many times before, when was Sun Ce at a distance and began to retreat?"

"About fifty miles or so." Zhao Yundao.

Zhao Yun basically every time, when the distance is fifty miles, he will ask the army to stop and repair, rest for a night, and then rush directly to the city tomorrow.

Fifty miles, for Zhao Jun, will not be too tired, can deal with emergencies.

If you say that you march for a hundred miles and then encounter the enemy, the soldiers are physically exhausted and their strength cannot be exerted much.

So even the day before, when it was only fifty miles away from the enemy city, and the world was not yet dark, Zhao Yun would order to set up camp.

"I basically leave the day before I arrive." Zhao Yundao.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu retreated, and within an hour or two on Zhao Yun's side, he would be able to receive the news.

"Strategist, what's wrong?"

"I'm thinking about it." Jia Xu frowned.

He took out the map and said, "This place is more than eighty miles away from Linhai County. ”

Zhao Yun nodded: "At the current speed, I can still walk thirty miles today, and I just set up camp fifty miles away." ”

Jia Xu said: "Stop after walking twenty miles." ”

Twenty miles away, is the Grand Canyon, which is most likely to encounter ambushes along the way.

Although now in this canyon, there is still no detection of the Yangzhou army ambush.

But Jia Xu still decided to be careful, and he was now more and more sure in his heart that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu would definitely choose to ambush.

Today, they are encamped just outside the canyon, definitely not just one step of the canyon.

"Okay." Zhao Yun nodded, he naturally would not easily object to Jia Xu's decision.

Sixty miles and fifty miles, there is not much difference.

Because as long as he walked twenty miles, Zhao Jun's speed was once again a notch slower.

Finally, at dusk, after advancing twenty miles, stopped outside the canyon.

"Zhou Yu, where will the ambush be?" Jia Xu stood outside the canyon and watched.

Although he could see nothing but the woods.

But Jia Xu's gaze seemed to be able to pass through the canyon and fall into the river behind.

"Zhou Yu, where will you choose to ambush?"

Jia Xu put himself into the identity of Zhou Yu, if he was guarding Linhai now, how would he ambush Zhao Jun.

"Strategist, it's getting dark, let's go back to the camp and rest first." Zhao Yundao.

"Hmm." Jia Xu nodded and said, "We still have to strengthen our vigilance tonight, and we can't be careless." ”

"Don't worry."

For Zhao Yun, Jia Xu was also very relieved, and he just reminded him a little.

He believed that Zhao Yun would not be careless.

It's just that the night was still very peaceful.

And Jia Xu's tent was not extinguished until the second half of the night.

But early in the morning, Jia Xu got up.

"Zilong, is there any news from Linhai?"

In the camp, the soldiers were already preparing breakfast.

Zhao Jun's food is very good, even in the morning, there is meat soup to eat.

Although the meat is ground into powder and added to the white porridge, the amount is not very much, but it smells very fragrant and tastes even more fragrant.

There is no limit to the amount of meat porridge, you can eat as much as you can, and the only requirement is that it cannot be wasted.

Zhao Yun said: "The news just came back, Sun Ce led the army out of the city. ”

"But you want to run away?" Jia Xu said.

"No, it's coming towards us, there are 50,000 people." Zhao Yundao: "It seems that in the canyon ahead, Sun Ce really didn't send someone to ambush. ”
