Moreover, in addition to their own cavalry, the people who suffered heavy losses in today's battle also suffered a lot of losses.

So they didn't think that Xiao Jinxing was borrowing a knife to kill people and using the Su people as cannon fodder.

And because everyone is injured, Xiao Jinxing is afraid that he will not dare to offend his two brothers too much.

But when the two found Xiao Jinxing, who was moving with Youyu's army, before they could speak, they heard Xiao Jinxing frowning and shouting angrily to the two:

"Two leaders, why can't you wait to chase after the Ziren, why did you come to me?"

The Xiyan brothers glanced at each other, and Xiyan Wanhai gritted his teeth and said:

"Xiao Datouren, nearly thirty percent of our warriors have been injured in today's battle, and they really can't fight again.

What's more, it is getting late now, and I am afraid that something will happen to the night march, so I also ask Xiao Datou to stop the battle and slowly figure it out. ”

Xiao Jinxing nodded when he heard this, he walked up to Xiyan Wanhai, patted the stout man's shoulder and said:

"Xiyantou, have you forgotten the oath you made?"

Xiyan Wanhai was shocked, he hurriedly lowered his head, and said that he didn't dare.

Xiao Jin walked past the two of them,

He turned his back to the two of them and looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the sky,

Listening to the hurried steps of the soldiers marching in the dark around him, he whispered:

"The two leaders, in today's battle, you have Su warriors who have indeed worked hard,

When I defeat the people, I will be rewarded for my deeds.

But today's World War is just the beginning,

And we've won eighty percent of the time.

Did the two of them make the decision to let the blood of the warriors be shed in vain? ”

After hearing this, Brother Xiyan looked at each other suspiciously, and Brother Xiyan immediately turned to Xiao Jinxing and said:

"Xiao Datouren, how do you say this?"

Xiao Jinxing looked at the darkness in front of him, he opened his mouth and smiled,

He told the two of them that Zhezhe had been ambushed behind the camp of the Ziren.

The two of them laughed excitedly when they heard it,

It's just that Brother Xiyan suddenly stopped laughing, frowned, and asked Xiao Jinxing:

"Big head, in today's battle, why did the Zhetou people not lead the troops to raid the Zi people from behind.

You must know that if the Zhezhetou people can make a surprise attack before the Zi people withdraw their troops, we will definitely win a great victory today.

And our warriors don't have to, don't have to. ”

Speaking of which, Brother Xiyan couldn't say any more,

There is indeed a meaning of complaining about Xiao Jinxing in these words, and how can Xiao Jinxing not hear it.

He looked at Brother Xiyan with some approving, and said to him:

"If Zhezhe attacks today, we can only win a big victory at best.

And the people will flee to every valley and plain on the snowy plateau.

At that time, I am afraid that it will be very difficult to defeat the Z people and make them surrender.

Besides, heavy snow is coming, and now in the middle of winter, once the way home is blocked by heavy snow,

Then I'm afraid that what we will have to worry about is not where to find the Zi people, but where to hide from the Zi people. ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Jinxing looked at the two Xiyan brothers and saw that they were all thoughtful, so he nodded and continued:

"The Zi people have lived on the snowy plateau for a long time, and they are not only far more adaptable than us when the weather is cold, but also more familiar with the terrain and landforms.

Even if only 10,000 people escape, I'm afraid that by that time we will become rabbits chased by wolves.

So, my plan is to fight a war of attrition with all my might, so that they feel that we can't fight them for a short time.

When they are paralyzed, Zhezhe will block their retreat, and we will surround them in front to see if we can catch them all. ”

After Xiao Jinxing finished speaking, he stopped talking and looked at the two people in a daze, turned around and prepared to leave.

It's just that before leaving, Xiao Jinxing accentuated his voice and said to the two:

"After the two leaders have figured this out, they will immediately march with me.

For the sake of the casualties of the Su tribe today, I will not care about disobeying military orders with you.

Otherwise, when the army is defeated, I will see you as the next target of attack. ”

After saying that, Xiao Jinxing's figure merged into the rolling flow of people in the dark.

The Xiyan brothers watched Xiao Jinxing leave, and immediately rode on their war horses and galloped away in the direction of their own army.

At this moment, the soldiers around them could clearly see through the moonlight, and the eyes of the Xiyan brothers were full of fear.

Although the battlefield was less than ten miles away from the camp of the army, the sky had completely darkened after Qiuzi led the soldiers and horses back to the camp.

Qiuzi entered the tent, and had just given the order to count the lost soldiers and horses, when he saw a soldier rushing in from outside the tent and hurriedly came to report.

Qiuzi, who was sitting by the campfire in the tent, looked at the pale face of the messenger and knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked:

"What's wrong?"

The soldier said, almost with a cry:

"Chief, there are 20,000 soldiers and horses who have appeared in the camp, and now our way back to the tribe has been blocked."

When Qiuzi heard this, his hair stood on end, and he stood up suddenly, pointed at the soldier, and asked:

"When did they come, and didn't you arrange for the guards to be on guard?

Why did you find out about them at this time? ”

The soldier fell to his knees with a puff, and hurriedly said:

"We only discovered their whereabouts when these people came to my camp,

There was no spies to report back before, and it is estimated that the spies sent out are probably more than lucky. ”

Qiuzi looked at the soldier kneeling on the ground in a daze, and suddenly felt a wave of dizziness in his mind.

There weren't many spies in the rear of the camp, so don't say it's those spies.

Even he never imagined that there would be a troop of soldiers and horses behind him.

How many accidents does this foolish leader have to give to himself?

Qiuzi was at a loss, and sat down on the ground with his hands over his head.

In today's war, the damage of Yu people is greater than that of himself,

But they hid the heavy cavalry to the end to frighten themselves and force them to retreat.

And not only that, they obviously have 20,000 reinforcements but they don't use them in today's decisive battle.

I'd rather fight to defeat than use even a single soldier.

When he returned to the camp, he suddenly appeared behind his camp and blocked the way.

Could it be?

Thinking of this, Qiuzi's cold sweat only flowed down his back in an instant.

"He wants to annihilate us all."

This was the only explanation Tyuz could think of.

"Newspaper"

There was another hurried news from outside the tent, and Qiuzi raised his head, looking at the soldiers who came in again, still pale,

He smiled bitterly and said slowly, "Let's talk about it." ”

When the soldier heard Qiuzi's tone, he looked at the person kneeling beside him and was a little confused for a moment, but after a moment he hurriedly said:

"The headman, the Yuren coalition army has arrived five miles outside the camp and is encamping."

"Smack".

There was a crisp sound in the silent tent, and the soldier who reported the message looked up at Qiuz,

But he saw that the water ladle in Qiuzi's hand that had just been prepared for the ox to drink fell to the ground,

In a few moments, the spilled water stains condensed into ice edges in the dim light of the fire.

The two soldiers delivering the letter were motionless, and Tyuz fell into deep thought,

He couldn't figure out when such a prodigy of war had been born on the grassland.

After a long time, he waved his hand at the two who had delivered the letter and said:

"Go and invite all the heads of the road to come and speak in my tent."

After saying that, he sat down slowly,

Qiuz looked at the blazing bonfire in front of him, and once again fell into deep thought.

......

As soon as it was dawn the next morning, Qiuzi stood behind the main gate of the camp and looked at the military tents in the distance, which were the size of sesame seeds, but when put together, they looked black and oppressive.

Because he hadn't slept all night, Qiuzi's eyes were already red and swollen.

But as if he didn't notice anything, he just stared at the simple military camp with only tents in front of him.

He clearly remembered that yesterday's battle had Yu and the coalition forces suffered heavy casualties.

But they did not rest at all, and followed themselves to the camp.

Why do they dare to do this?

Are they not afraid of death and don't know how to be tired?

Aren't their commanders afraid of mutiny?

For a moment, Qiuzi even felt that there must be reinforcements coming again, so that they could cheer up and continue their march after the bloody battle, and keep the offensive going.

But Qiuzi knew very well in his heart that it was already late at the end of the battle yesterday.

It is impossible for the coalition forces to rush to reinforcements.

They must have gritted their teeth and persisted in forming an encirclement of themselves!

What a formidable opponent this is.

Qiuzi remembered the strange tactics of the Yu coalition forces in yesterday's battle and their hatred of fighting hard and not retreating in the face of their superior forces.

Think again about the Warlords who have never been seen in the grasslands,

Qiuzi shuddered involuntarily.

Where is this still an army on the steppe.

Last night, Qiuzi and the leaders of the army, large and small, went back and forth in front of the camp and back and forth many times.

He carefully observed the enemy troops in front of the camp and behind the camp, and tried to find a strategy to break the flanking attack of the Yuyu coalition forces in front and back, but in the end he gained nothing.

In yesterday's battle, his soldiers were sleepy and lacking horses, and the whole army lost more than 10,000 people, and less than 30% of the cavalry and horses remained.

In such a situation, how can he break through the danger.

At the military meeting last night, he looked at the many small people under his command and most of them were indignant,

Qiuzi understood that this was their dissatisfaction with yesterday's battle and that they were the first to withdraw their troops.

Moreover, he knew that his leaders must have a lot of complaints about him, because most of them felt that they had caused the current siege.

Because it was my own idea to camp in the mountain pass under the Yuqi Mountain.

When he chose to camp here, he wanted to stifle the key point of the Yu coalition army entering the interior.

But now it's like a cage trapped and can't escape.

Qiuzi had words of suffering, and he was a little disheartened, and he even wanted to go out of the camp and raise a white flag and surrender.

If he hadn't ordered the retreat early yesterday, then the 1,000 heavily armored cavalry would have stabbed the back of the army hard.

And I didn't know at the time that there were still 20,000 soldiers left by the Yu coalition army as backhands to watch on the side, including more than 10,000 cavalry.

If you didn't know how to advance or retreat yesterday and insisted on continuing to attack,

Then the consequences will be many times worse than now.
