At the time of the fourth watch,

On the battlefield, the Tang army was slowly divided into two armies, one in the south and one in the north.

"General Qiyu! The Southern Route Army is ready. Hou Junji led a group of South Road generals to bow to Li Jing.

Li Jing looked at the army that was ready to go, nodded and said: "This pursuit will inevitably be difficult, I hope that you and others will have a smooth journey, and I hope that I can join you in the end of the city." ”

And the last city is the westernmost border of Tuyuhun, and it is also the meeting place of the South Route Army and the North Route Army, with a total length of more than 3,000 miles, and most of the deserts and deserts on the way are uninhabited, and its journey is extremely difficult.

"Obey the general's orders!" The generals bowed down.

Li Jing turned his head to look at the fire that was already less than ten miles away from the army, and waved his long sword: "Let's go." ”

For the Tang army, the early pursuit, the chance of victory will be one more point, and suddenly the two armies turned around, one south and one north, and rode away along the border of the fire.

After the army set out, Su Dingfang, who stayed behind, began to set fire to the wild grass on the westernmost side of the wounded barracks to make room for the wounded barracks.

"Drive!"

With a shout, the army slowly moved north,

On the one hand, the sky and the earth are dark at the moment, and the fire burning in the grassland just allows the Tang army to march smoothly, on the other hand, while the fire has not spread, seize the time to let the war horses grow as much as possible, otherwise once the fire spreads, I am afraid that these war horses want to report a meal again, I am afraid it will not be so easy.

In the huge team of the Northern Route Army, Merton led the firearms superintendent soldiers to walk slowly, unlike other armies traveling lightly, in the firearms superintendent's team, there were two eight-wheeled carriages drawn by eight horses, honestly walking in the farthest place from the fire.

The other soldiers looked at the eight-wheeled carriage, with a look of awe in their eyes, having experienced the battle of Tuyuhun Sanbao and the battle of yesterday, everyone had long been apprehensive about the power of gunpowder.

The Tuyuhun cavalry who died in the hands of the Tang army was fortunately left with a whole corpse, even if it was the famous Modao team, it was only split in half, and the dead in the hands of the firearms supervisor were shattered bones.

Suddenly, the awe of the firearms supervisor in the hearts of the officers and men of the Tang Army instantly surpassed that of the strongest arm, the Modao team, and became the most ferocious team in the army.

"Fortunately, there are not many firearms supervisors."

Many soldiers looked at the team of more than 30 firearms supervisors and couldn't help but rejoice in their hearts.

"Nephew Mo Xian, this time he showed his skills and made the firearms supervisor rank first in the army in one fell swoop!" Cheng bit the golden horse and leaned in front of Merton and smacked his tongue.

Yesterday it was his left leading guard and the firearms supervisor who fought side by side, and he saw with his own eyes the combat effectiveness of the firearms supervisor, under each round of gunpowder bullet attacks, at least 300 Tuyuhun soldiers fell, although under a big battle, Merton only fired three rounds of gunpowder bullets, but at least 900 enemy soldiers were killed.

Although this is far from the 50,000 slashes of the army, you must know that the total strength of the firearms supervisor plus Merton is only more than 30 people, so in this way, the firearms supervisor has nearly killed 30 enemies per person, which is a record that the Modao team can't match!

Killing nine hundred enemies without losing a single person, the status of the firearms supervisor soared in the army in an instant, Li Jing originally did not plan to let Merton go on an expedition, but when he heard that the firearms supervisor still had a grenade, he changed his mind in an instant, and he didn't want to give up the strongest attack power of the firearms supervisor.

"Uncle Cheng has won the award, although the firearms supervisor has strong attack power, but he has no defensive power, and he can't form an army alone, without the protection of the army, the firearms supervisor may not be able to move an inch." Merton smiled wryly.

Cheng Yanjin nodded and said: "Just have this awareness, remember that the arrogant soldiers will be defeated, the army pays attention to teamwork, the infantry is like an anvil, the cavalry is like a hammer, the hammer anvil collides, even if it is as solid as a rock, it can be crushed to pieces, this is my Tang Dynasty is the simplest but strongest art of war." Firearms superintendents, while unique, are not unique. ”

"The little nephew must follow Uncle Cheng's teachings." Merton looked at the firearms convoy that had broken away from the army and marched alone, and was immediately instructed.

Cheng Yanjin saw Merton's comprehension, nodded with satisfaction, Merton's first entry into the army's firearms supervisor was in the limelight, coupled with the uniqueness of the firearms supervisor, the entire firearms supervisor vaguely had a feeling of being isolated, and the fate of an isolated unit was doomed.

When it was already dawn, the army immediately moved away from the fire and increased its speed, and Merton took this opportunity to lead the firearms supervisor and other Tang troops to get close, and took the opportunity to introduce that as long as the gunpowder weapons were used properly, their safety could be completely guaranteed.

Li Jing looked at the firearms supervisor who was integrated with the army with satisfaction, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, he saw the change of the firearms supervisor, but when he looked down at the low grass under his feet, which couldn't hide the yellow sand on the ground at all, his mood suddenly became bad.

I have to say that Fu Yun's determination to escape is very resolute, almost all the grassland that can be ignited Fu Yun did not let go, from the next day, the Tang army has been forced by the fire to the edge of the grassland semi-grassland and semi-desert area, only the sparse grassland here can survive and not burn.

But the grass here is very low, sparse, can not meet the use of nearly 100,000 horses, after a big march, the whole grass even the grass roots are gnawed by the horses, Rao is so, these horses are almost visible to the naked eye to lose fat.

What's more serious is that the army has been pursuing for five days, marching for five hundred miles, and has not even seen a single figure, the future is confused, and there is no purpose.

Looking at the endless desert, a group of generals on the North Road couldn't help but gather around Li Jing to discuss countermeasures.

"The remnants of Tuyuhun must be found as soon as possible, otherwise these war horses will become weaker and weaker, and I am afraid that the food and grass will also be stretched." Cheng Yanjin frowned.

These days, the soldiers are gnawing on compressed dry food to survive, and the saved corn is used as refined grain to supplement the war horses to supplement the shortage of forage for war horses, but one war horse is probably more than three soldiers, and the grain and grass carried by the army are declining at a sharp rate.

Li Jing nodded and said: "According to the map provided by the Dangxiang tribe, fifty miles ahead, there is a low-lying place, with abundant water and grass, maybe it will be the hiding place of the Tuyuhun tribe, it should not have been burned, and the general has already sent someone to investigate." I'll hear back soon. ”

The rest of the generals couldn't help but look happy, they had tracked for eight hundred miles, and now they finally heard a good news.

"Report!"

I saw a scout hurriedly come in and report: "General Qiyu, there is no trace of the Tuyuhun tribe in the valley ahead. ”

There was a sudden sense of loss on the faces of the generals, and this time they pounced on it again.

Li Jing's heart moved: "Has the valley ever burned down? ”

If the valley is not burned, the war horses in the army can have a good meal.

The scout shook his head and said, "It's not burned, it's just occupied by a herd of yellow sheep." ”

"Yellow sheep!" Cheng Biting Jin's eyes lit up and said, "This is a good thing, yellow mutton is a rare delicacy!" ”

The last time Cheng Yanjin ate yellow mutton, it was when he was in the Northern Expedition to the Turks, and that delicacy made him never forget it.

"Have you ever estimated how many yellow sheep there are?" Cheng Yanjin couldn't help but say.

"At least thousands." Scout said.

"Thousands!" Everyone was stunned, a herd of yellow sheep was only more than ten at most, and the reason why there were so many yellow sheep in a valley this time was probably because of the fire that Fu Yun put together.

"General! Now that the army is short of supplies, if you can hunt these yellow sheep to supplement the army. Merton had an idea. If there are more than a dozen yellow sheep, it is not enough for the army to stuff the teeth, so there is naturally no need to make a big move. This time, however, there were thousands, enough for the army to feast on.

Cheng Yanjin shook his head and said: "Mo boy, you don't know, this yellow sheep is very alert, I'm afraid that by the time the army passes, he will already hear the sound of running without a shadow, let alone hunting, unless ......." ”

"Unless we set a trap and wait for the yellow sheep to come in." Merton said.

Cheng Biting Jin laughed and said: "Mo boy, the old man has personally hunted yellow sheep in the Turks, once this kind of yellow sheep runs, even the cavalry can't catch up, and it is so difficult to want the yellow sheep to enter the trap."

Merton confidently said, "It's hard to catch a sheep, but if it's a flock, it's easy." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Cheng bit his golden eyebrows and said.

"In the "Secret Book of Mozi", it was mentioned that the sheep flock is a very scattered organization, and usually they blindly rush left and right together, but once one of the sheep moves, the other sheep will rush up without thinking, completely ignoring the fact that there may be a wolf in front of them or a better grass not far away. This is the herd effect! Merton said.

"Herd effect!" Everyone's eyes lit up.

Merton nodded, revealing a mysterious smile and said: "The kid doesn't need to control the entire flock, he only needs to control the direction of the leader's run, and to deal with the yellow sheep with an unusually developed sense of hearing, I think the firearms supervisor may be the most suitable." ”

When Merton led the firearms warden to the valley, he couldn't help but gasp when he saw the dense yellow sheep scattered in the valley, the number of these yellow sheep was probably more than the number the scout said, when the firearms warden appeared in the valley, immediately all the yellow sheep immediately gathered together, but when he saw that the number of firearms warden soldiers was small, and he didn't want to give up the pasture that was hard to find, he didn't flee immediately.

"Sake-sama!" Xue Rengui leaned over to Morton and whispered.

"Let's get started!" Merton said with a wave of his hand.

Suddenly, more than a dozen grenades suddenly flew out of the hands of the firearms supervisor and exploded not far from the entire Yellow Sheep. The entire yellow sheep flock instantly exploded, and under the leadership of several long-horned rams, they immediately fled in the opposite direction of the explosion, followed by a large number of yellow sheep behind them.
