On a wooded hill, five Bohai Navy soldiers were hiding at the edge of the forest, staring into the distance.

This is a standard wind whispering scout team, they are all covered in half-green and half-yellow camouflage clothes, almost integrated with the mountains and forests, and even the war horses behind them are carefully put on special horse chews to avoid the war horses from neighing loudly when they encounter unexpected situations.

"Huh?" The leader of the Wind Whisper squad suddenly frowned, and looked at the sky in the distance...... Large clouds of faint smoke seemed to be rising.

Soon, the looming dust began to approach.

"Record!" The squad leader squinted condescendingly, and reported a series of data in his mouth: "At two o'clock, twenty-five miles southeast of Yangxiang, the enemy army was discovered...... It is suspected to be the main force of Gongsun Zhan's former army, with about 10,000 ...... Mixed infantry and cavalry, at the current pace of marching, may come into contact with our troops at noon tomorrow...... Complete! ”

A warrior beside him quickly finished writing on the white silk with a charcoal strip, and then rolled it into a roll, stuffing it into the bamboo tube next to the claw of the Heavenly Eye.

With the flapping of the wings, the eye of the sky soared into the sky and flew south along the undulating mountain forest.

"That's it!" The squad leader's expression was relieved: "All get on your horse, keep your distance from the enemy, and continue to observe...... What the? ”

A sharp sound of breaking the sky came, and everyone's faces changed dramatically and looked up to the sky.

A feathered arrow shot up into the sky from the forest hundreds of paces away, and accurately hit the Sky Eye, which was still gliding at a low altitude. Tianyan let out a mournful roar and fell straight down.

The next moment, the sound of hurried horses' hooves came. Five enemy cavalry slaughtered themselves from the forest where the feathered arrows were fired, and galloped towards the hiding place of the Wind Whisper Scout Squad, apparently finding their place through the take-off position of the Sky Eye.

"It's an equal number! They're dead! A wind scout stuck out his tongue and licked his lower lip, his eyes murderous: "Kill them all and avenge the eye of heaven!" ”

"No!" The captain's eyes also flashed with hatred, but he said categorically: "You take my horse, ride one person and two horses, and immediately rush back to the letter...... The enemy will be handed over to us! ”

"But......" The wind-whispering scout was obviously unwilling, but was immediately stopped by his captain.

"No, but!" The squad leader said sharply: "With the fastest speed, even if you run both horses to death, you must let the general receive the information as soon as possible!" ”

"Yes...... Subordinates obey orders! The scout was shocked, and returned to his horse, riding both men and two, without looking back.

"Humph! Dare to come and die! The squad leader looked at the approaching enemy horseman, and with a lightning move, he put the corner bow behind him in his hand, and pulled out a full moon: "Two people are responsible for one...... Take the lead and be the first enemy! ”

The other three Wind Whispering Scouts were also silent, bending their bows to aim at the enemy, and the four of them pulled a sharp smile on their lips at the same time...... With a similar number of people, the Bohai naval scouts have never lost a single battle between the enemy scouts.

"Put!"

After the first battle broke out between the two scout squads, the skirmishes between the two armies began to get out of control. Although the Bohai Navy's Zhulu Scout Team almost wiped out all known enemy scouts, everyone was very worried...... The enemy concentrated almost all of its firepower on the Sky Eye, which had already lost most of the precious Sky Eye troops, and only three of the seven Sky Eyes in the whole army remained, and one of them was wounded. The enemy forces are obviously trying to contain the news of the Bohai Navy at all costs.

At the same time, the Wind Whisper Scout, who was the first to return, finally sent the military intelligence to Nanying, and General Nanda's response surprised everyone...... He ordered the whole army to slow down their march and camp on the spot where the enemy army must pass through the main routes.

Take advantage of your own maneuverability and striking ability, break through and attack, preemptively crush the enemy's main force, and frustrate the enemy's entire army...... This is the consistent style of the Bohai Navy.

However, looking at the calm face of the main general, no one dared to refute and question, and even Zhang Mengyi swallowed his doubts back into his stomach.

However, after all, there was a young general who was not afraid of the tiger and couldn't hide his thoughts, so Ma Chao immediately raised a question: "General, the enemy's advance is less than twelve hours away from us, our army should either attack at night, or find a dangerous place to build a fortress and hold ......."

He looked at Nan Ying's expression without the slightest fluctuation, and finally said in a deflated manner: "Even if you want to camp at the key roads that the enemy army must pass through, the general should clearly indicate the specific location, right?" ”

"Oh!" Nanying's nonchalant gaze swept over the map, and with a little ease, he clicked on the nearest place name: "This is it!" This is the place where the enemy army must pass! ”

"Du Kangting?" Several generals were stunned together, and some generals who were familiar with geography couldn't help but say: "Governor Kang is a place of ointment, and there is no danger to be garrisoned!" ”

"Xu Huang!" Nan Ying turned his head as if he hadn't heard it, and looked at Xu Huang deeply: "Deploy immediately...... You know what to do! ”

"Yes! Checkmate! Xu Huang calmly stepped forward, leaned over and said, "The last general understands that he must live up to the general's trust!" ”

Speaking of this, except for Ma Chao and the others who were still stunned, the old people of the Bohai Navy all understood, and some militants couldn't help but shout excitedly: "Okay! It's going to be hard! ”

"That's right! It's hard work! Nanying Huo Ran turned around and said sharply: "The general has made up his mind, so he will attract the main force of Gongsun Zan in the Dukang Pavilion and fight it out...... Don't hurry up and get ready! ”

The generals scattered with a bang, and only Ma Chao and Zhang Mengyi were still standing locally.

Ma Chao's face turned a little pale, he straightened up and said, "General, do you know that the last general is by no means afraid of war...... However, this is not in line with the original plan! The enemy army is several times larger than mine, and it may be inappropriate to shake it head-on! ”

"Who said that the enemy army is several times larger than mine? With this general, it can reach tens of thousands of elite soldiers! Nanying finally smiled: "What's more, since the conquest of Ben General, what battle has not been outnumbered?" ”

He patted Ma Chao's broad shoulder: "With Xiliang Ma Chao here, Ben will be more confident...... Go ahead! Don't disgrace your father and your aunt! ”

"Yes, the Admiral understands!" Ma Chao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he suddenly said arrogantly: "The last general will not lose his uncle's face!" ”

With that, he bowed and went away without looking back.

Zhang Mengyi looked at the silhouette of Nanying stupidly, and only let out an inaudible sigh for a long time.

Around the time of Shen, the Bohai Navy rushed to Dukang Pavilion. At this time, there was a report from the front that Gongsun Zhan's former army was also unbearable to trek due to the mixed infantry and cavalry, and had begun to camp and rest, and it was only more than 60 miles away from the Dukang Pavilion...... The judgment of the Wind Scout was extremely accurate, and according to the enemy's movements, the two armies would come into contact by noon tomorrow at the latest.

Before the night came, under the command of the generals, all the cavalry of the Bohai Navy were dispatched, and they chose an open area, began to cut down the surrounding trees, and dragged the logs back to the open field behind the saddle. However, these logs were not used to build a fence, but were made into a sharp repulsion horse, densely arranged in the direction of Gongsun Zhan's army. Before the horse was rejected, three deep trenches gradually stretched out, completely cutting off traffic. In the distance, countless thistles are sprinkled everywhere, making people's scalp tingling.

At the same time, 800 four-wheeled chariots lined up in layers of fortifications behind the rejection of the horses, loosened their horses, removed their wheels, and firmly fastened them to the ground with heavy iron deeds. Between the two chariots, a large cowhide shield with a neck-high face was completely sealed, and even the top of the tall chariot was inserted with a special wooden plank into the iron groove on one side, forming a female wall for the warriors to hide and shoot.

The most exaggerated thing is that the long-trained Bohai Navy charioteers also made a clear division of labor and used the parts and components loaded by each vehicle to assemble five small catapults in the shortest possible time.

As night fell, a huge war fortress had been completed, like an ancient python curled up in the night, waiting to be devoured.

Inside the fortress, a little bit of fire lit up one after another, illuminating it exquisitely. The soldiers of the Bohai Navy are still tirelessly busy, they use sacks filled with sand and soil to strengthen the outermost chariot fortifications, transport the daily necessities originally placed in the carts to the rear for centralized storage, a large crossbow is carried to the firing position, and bundles of arrows are also being transported everywhere in a steady stream.

The bright firelight reflected Ma Chao's eyes, and also reflected the shock in his eyes...... He began to understand why it was difficult for the Bohai Navy to find defeat after many years of fighting, and at the same time, why Nanying was so optimistic about this tough battle with outnumbered enemies! Because, whether it is the quality of the soldiers or the logistics ordnance, the Bohai Navy is indeed unique in the world and incomparable!

He was deeply glad that because of Ma Yunluo's relationship, Xiliangjun was able to make an extremely correct choice. Otherwise, the only outcome of stubbornly resisting the Bohai Navy, which has hundreds of thousands of people, to the end can only be a dead end......

"What are you thinking?" Nanying's clear voice sounded from behind him.

"General......" Ma Chao took a breath, and then turned around and saluted: "The last general is thinking, it is safe for you to defend against the enemy with a chariot formation, but isn't our cavalry completely useless?" ”

"Defend yourself against the enemy? That's what you think! Nanying walked slowly in front of Ma Chao and stared at the soldiers in front of him who were performing their duties: "The general can tell you frankly now, the chariot soldiers are actually just to create a chance to win, and the key is to rely on the cavalry to destroy the enemy!" ”

"It turns out that in the general's heart, he has won before the battle!" Ma Chao was silent, and said after a while: "In the past, Li Ling led 5,000 soldiers to fight against 80,000 Huns in a chariot formation...... Dare to ask the general, how many arrows does our army have? ”

"At the beginning of the expedition, there were only 400,000, and Mengyi transported 50,000, a total of 450,000!" Nan Ying replied calmly, and then said proudly: "However, the Bohai Navy is not comparable to the five thousand ordinary Han soldiers, and the general thinks that he is also better than Li Ling, and Gongsun Zhan does not have 80,000 cavalry...... The most important thing is that our army is not as lonely and isolated as Li Lingjun! ”

"The last general pleads with the general!" Ma Chao heard this, and raised his head and said: "Please lead a cavalry guerrilla attack outside, only to take a slight setback in the enemy's offensive, and immediately take Gongsun Zhan Daxu and behead the chief!" In this way, the enemy army will surely collapse......"

Nan Ying heard the warm current in his heart, and was about to say a few words of encouragement, only to hear Zhang Mengyi's cold voice coming from afar: "Not allowed!" You have an even more difficult task! ”

The two followed the prestige, and saw a team of heroic female soldiers holding the crossbow machine obliquely, stepping towards them with neat and dense steps. Next to the team, Zhang Meng, who was dressed in military uniform, walked on foot, and several female military officials around him were also fully clothed, and they were full of murderous energy.

"What's more arduous...... Nan Ying was about to ask, and suddenly saw one of the female officials, and couldn't help but be shocked: "Mengyi, you...... How did you bring her too! ”

"Cai Yan? She is also a member of the Bohai Navy! How can I not come? Zhang Mengyi pointed to the delicate and lovely girl: "Moreover, it was she who made a quick decision and thought of the key to determining the success or failure of the whole battle!" ”

"The general forgives the sin!" Cai Yan timidly stepped forward to salute and said in a low voice: "Yesterday, without the consent of you and General Mengyi, my subordinates have already sent out the Eye of Heaven without authorization, and mobilized a group of people from the Bohai Sea to rush here!" ”

"Ben is going to underestimate you! In this way, you have already seen through the intentions of the general? Nanying was stunned, and then said in surprise: "But it's not right! There are no more mobile troops in the Bohai Sea that can be mobilized, otherwise how could the general be in danger? ”

"On that day, his subordinates received a temporary order, and set off with General Mengyi before and after, escorting arrows and grain and grass here respectively, and there was no time to report to General Mengyi's permission!" Cai Yan's head was lowered: "So, the subordinates imitated General Mengyi's handwriting without authorization...... Subordinates are guilty! ”

"Imitating Mengyi's handwriting...... So, these people are also something she can mobilize? Suddenly, a flash of lightning crossed Nan Ying's mind, and he lost his voice: "Could it be them!" ”
