Qin Qingzhi went to inform Li Guang that two hours later, there was still no movement in the direction of Yang Zigou.

Qin Cheng was a little anxious, so he called Ji Zhu over, "Qin Qingzhi went to inform the general to come to Xiaohua City, now two hours have passed, but there is no movement in the direction of Yang Zigou, you go and take a look, it is okay to respond." ”

Ji Zhu's ability, Qin Cheng still believes in it.

Before Ji Zhu left, a sergeant came up from the top of the fort building to report: "General, there is a hidden fire in the direction of Yangzigou!" ”

Instructed Ji Zhu to wait first, Qin Cheng followed the sergeant into the fort, and took the ladder to the top window of the fort to look.

About fifty miles away, there was indeed a glimmer of fire.

Qin Cheng frowned, looked at it carefully, and felt that the firelight was not close at all, as if it seemed to be a little chaotic, and the movement was not very regular, so he couldn't help but worry. Coming out of the fort, Qin Cheng said to Ji Zhu: "I'm afraid the general is in trouble, you bring someone over, if there is a situation, report it first." Remember that everything is the first thing to do is to receive the general. ”

After that, Qin Cheng added: "You bring Shanjia, he is familiar with this area, and you can ask a question or two in case of trouble." ”

After saying that, he greeted Shanjia again, and also told them two words, and let them go.

After arranging these things, Qin Cheng sat down in front of the bonfire again. At this time, it was almost ugly, and the sergeants of Xiaohua City were all in their respective posts, and no one was resting. This is also helpless, the vision is not good at night, and the Hun cavalry is very strong, this action is more treacherous, and Qin Cheng can't help but be unprepared.

Fortunately, the fire in Xiaohua City is very sufficient, and I am not afraid that the Hun cavalry will really attack here.

Half an hour passed, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves gradually approached, and Qin Cheng also walked to the gate of the camp and looked in the direction of Yangzigou.

The dragon of torches is near.

Qin Qingzhi came back with a few people to report to Qin Cheng before the brigade arrived: "General Li encountered an attack by the Hun cavalry on the road......

Li Guang dismounted in front of the camp, looking very angry, and when he saw Qin Cheng, he said: "This group of turtle grandsons is really fucking evil!" ”

Qin Cheng looked at the heavy cavalry that followed Li Guang, their faces were not good, the formation was a little chaotic, some sergeants had broken arrows stuck in their bodies, and they were being helped by others, and some sergeants who had not moved were carried on horseback by other cavalrymen, and the whole team looked very embarrassed.

Let Qin Qingzhi lead people to settle these heavy cavalry to camp, and Qin Cheng and Li Guang entered the camp together.

After Li Guang entered the Qincheng military tent, he first untied the water bladder and poured a few mouthfuls, stretched out his hand to wipe his mouth, and took a few breaths, and then said to Qincheng: "Not far from Yangzigou, I encountered an attack by the Huns. Damn, a team of about four or five hundred people, the torches are not hit, and when they get closer, there is a random rush of arrows, and after a few rounds of shooting, before you can fight back, these turtle grandsons will run away! It didn't take long for it to come again, and it was still a rush of shots...... If it weren't for the better equipment of the heavy cavalry, the loss would have been great this time! These straight thieves are really evil! ”

"How's that going on your side? Did the Huns come to harass? ”

"It's okay here for my subordinates, I haven't even seen a shadow of a Hun." Qin Cheng said, "It was the negligence of my subordinates before, but I didn't expect this group of Huns to be so powerful." ”

Li Guang sat in the tent, glanced at Qin Cheng suspiciously, and said, "You mean that there are Huns before and after?" ”

"It should be." Qin Cheng said: "This group of Huns is very elite, and only one of the five people who was arranged around Xiaohua City by waiting for us to escape the assassination of the Hun rangers was lucky. ”

"Qingzhi mentioned to me before that when you arrived here, the Huns were gone, and the defenders of a tun were basically wiped out. If it's really a Hun thing, it's really a fucking bird elite! Li Guang said resentfully.

"What about heavy rider casualties?" Qin Cheng asked.

"The casualties are not big or small, the formation has been disrupted, in the end, it is a newly trained cavalry, the training is not enough, the action is not so flexible, the opponent is fast, and he does not use torches, it is indeed a little difficult. The distance of 200 miles took nearly four hours. If it weren't for the presence of nearly 100 relatives, the situation would have been a bit worse, and Ji Zhu's response would have been timely. ”

Li Guang's mood gradually calmed down, and his tone stabilized.

"This is also the weakness of our waiting, after all, the heavy riding and light riding have not been formed, and it is indeed tricky to encounter such an unexpected situation." Qin Cheng was thoughtful.

"Judging from this situation, it is indeed not advisable to divide the troops, and we must be more cautious......"

Qin Cheng and Li Guang discussed in the military tent for a while, and when Li Guang's own camp tent and heavy cavalry camp were arranged, it was already Yin, and it was expected that the Hun cavalry would not attack the camp again today, so Qin Cheng ordered the army to rest in preparation for another battle in the coming day.

After a day and a night's exhaustion, all the sergeants were extremely tired, except for the sergeants who kept vigil, and after a while there was no sound in the camp.

Nothing was said all night.

……

Fifty miles from Xiaohua City to Yangzigou, there is a hill that is higher than the surrounding low grass hills, and when Li Guang led his army to pass through this place, he also fought with the Hun cavalry who came to attack for a while.

Not long after Li Guang led his army, a cavalry of about 500 people reappeared under the hills. The cavalry brigade stopped under the hill and moved in unison. The three horsemen came out of the procession and ran up the hill.

The whole cavalry, without a single torch.

"This Han cavalry is a little different." The three horsemen stared at the still fiery Xiaohua City for a while, and one of them spoke, his voice a little hoarse.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Said the middle rider. His figure seems a little thin in the cold wind, but the thin figure in the night seems a little mysterious, his voice is not as rough as that of an ordinary prairie man, but a little delicate, but full of majesty and neutrality.

The previous rider was promised, and continued to say in his hoarse voice: "First, slow speed; Second, the armor has a high ability to prevent arrows; Third, the action is a little chaotic. ”

"Looks like a well-equipped recruit." In the end, the hoarse cavalry came to a strange conclusion.

The rider in the middle was silent, noncommittal.

"It's a pity that we couldn't find a single corpse of the Han army, and the Han soldiers who died in battle were also taken away by the Han army, which makes it impossible for us to know what kind of equipment this Han army is." The hoarse cavalry seemed unimpressed by the other party's silence, and continued, "The Han army dispatched three thousand five hundred cavalry this time, except for the five hundred cavalry who stayed in the Laomayuan Mountain Pass, the other three thousand cavalry all acted together. In short, the Han army was very cautious and careful in its actions this time, and besides, they even left a way to retreat. ”

"Four months ago, the cavalry in Shanggu was wiped out by us by two thousand, and now they only have two thousand cavalry, and the other 1,500 new cavalry cannot have any combat effectiveness at all, it is not normal for them to be careless." The rider, who had not spoken, said coldly, with a thick disdain.

Speaking of this, the two riders on the side were silent. They have said what should be said, what to do next, it is up to the rider in the middle to take the idea, they will not exceed the rules without permission.

"Everything went according to plan." The rider in the middle looked at Xiaohua City for a while, said lightly, and turned around and went down the hill.

The two riders on the side glanced at each other, and followed the rider down the hill.

At dawn on the second day, the Han army sergeants in Xiaohua City were about to get up, but they received a military order from the hussar captain, and the content of the military order surprised everyone.

"General Qin's military order, get up today and delay it for two hours, and all the soldiers will have a good rest!"

After receiving this military order, ordinary sergeants naturally didn't have much to say, but some senior generals couldn't sit still and hurriedly went to Qincheng.

For example, the heavy cavalry army Houma Mountain.

At that time, Qin Cheng was having dinner in the military tent, and the soldiers passed Ma Dashan to ask for a meeting, and Qin Cheng could think of what this guy was doing with his knees, so he ordered him to come in, and at the same time asked the soldiers to inform the gang to add another breakfast.

"The last general will see General Qin!" After Ma Dashan entered the tent, he saluted first, and looked up to see Qin Cheng sitting behind the general's case, eating with a relaxed expression, his heart was even more like a fire, and his voice was a little louder, "My subordinates have something unclear, I have come to ask the general!" ”

"Why did the general order the whole army to get up late? Now it is the current enemy, the Huns may attack the camp at any time, the general asked the soldiers to get up late, so that we can not defend to meet the enemy, and we cannot find the enemy to take revenge, and the subordinates do not understand General Qin's intentions! ”

Qin Cheng swallowed a mouthful of food, and did not beckon Ma Dashan to sit, and said slowly: "What should be the meaning of the Marquis of the Ma Army?" ”

"Naturally, the whole army is on alert in case the Huns attack. Or go to him and find the Huns, kill them cleanly, and take last night's revenge! Ma Dashan said loudly, as a matter of course.

"Then why don't you be this hussar captain and take the place of the general to control the whole army?" Qin Cheng said coldly, "Then you order all the soldiers and soldiers to seek revenge on the Huns, or directly kill the desert and destroy the Hun royal court, what about it?" ”

"General......" Ma Dashan was said by Qin Cheng like this, only then did he realize his faux pas, and he committed the following offenses, questioned the military order, and committed a taboo in the army, his face suddenly turned red, and said: "The general should not laugh at the last general, how can the last general be capable...... The last general is just puzzled, please forgive the general! ”

Qin Cheng put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said after a while: "Marquis Ma, you are also a man in his thirties, commanding a song of cavalry, can't you use your brain to think about it first in case of trouble?" The Huns are so numerous, the huge border, you can find it if you want to? Once the army leaves Xiaohua City, what should you do if the Huns come to attack this place again? Besides, the Huns don't have to rest? You don't rest when people are resting, what do you do to fight with others when you want to fight again? ”

Ma Dashan nodded when he heard this, and when Qin Cheng finished speaking, the breakfast ordered by Qin Cheng was also served, and Qin Cheng motioned for his soldiers to put the breakfast on the table next to Ma Dashan.

"Subordinates are stupid!" Ma Dashan was ashamed and said that the voice of admitting his mistake was so loud.

Qin Cheng asked, "Figured it out?" ”

"I've figured it out this time!" Ma Dashan hugged his fists.

Qin Cheng nodded, pointed to the breakfast in front of Ma Dashan, and said, "Eat breakfast." ”

"Thank you, General!" Ma Dashan was flattered, and immediately smiled, and secretly said that General Qin is really a good belly, not only did he not punish us for violating military regulations, but also invited himself to breakfast, this kind of mind is really incomparable to ordinary people!

"No thanks." Qin Cheng smiled gloomily, "After eating, you will go and get twenty military sticks!" ”
