What's going on?

Although Shi Xiong and Zhang Wei both knew that it should be their own cavalry coming from the opposite side, otherwise how dare they go straight to their own army?

But what made Zhang Wei wonder was why his scout appeared at this time? Could it be that something happened to Yinshan?

Before Zhang Wei could express his doubts, two war horses had already come to him in the night.

"Report to General --,, the team is having something to ask us to report immediately." The scout on horseback jumped off his horse and came directly to Zhang Wei to report to him.

Is there something to report on the team? It seems that there is really something going on in Yinshan.

"Tell me what's going on?" Zhang Wei said anxiously.

"In the afternoon, the enemy army withdrew westward. After the team found out about the situation, let the small one report it quickly. "**Scout report.

Shanxi enemy troops withdrew to the west?

Yes?

How much change can happen in one day?

Zhang Wei looked at the scout in surprise, and then at Shi Xiong.

"How could this happen, are we too late?" Shi Xiong then said to Zhang Wei: "Since the enemy has withdrawn to the west, should we continue to Yinshan?" ”

Zhang Wei did not directly answer Shi Xiong's question, but asked the scout: "You said that the enemy army withdrew westward this afternoon?" ”

"Yes, the little one is in a hurry very clearly, the enemy will withdraw in the afternoon." The scout affirmed.

"Did the enemy army withdraw all of them from Yinshan to the west, or did they only withdraw some of the soldiers and horses?" Zhang Wei continued to ask.

"This?" The scout hesitated, then looked at the other scout.

Another scout hesitated for a moment and said, "General, according to a small estimate, it should be a part of the soldiers and horses, about four or five thousand people. ”

Four or five thousand soldiers?

"Are you sure?"

"I am absolutely sure that when the enemy withdrew out of the mountain, the small attention counted about four or five thousand people."

Everywhere is knowledge, how important it is to be careful!

After listening to the scout's report, Zhang Wei had an idea in his heart, and said to Shi Xiong: "General, don't worry, our army will continue to Yinshan." ”

"Continue to Yin Mountain?" Shi Xiong looked at Zhang Wei questioningly.

"General Shi, it's okay, the enemy is just going out to look for food or a place to live, maybe the enemy army who went out now has returned to the Yinshan camp."

You're not a god, how can you be so sure?

Shi Xiong looked at Zhang Wei suspiciously.

"General, imagine that if the enemy moves westward as a whole, it will definitely not be placed in the afternoon, but should be moved together in the early morning; Then there were only four or five thousand soldiers and horses that the enemy went out this time. As far as I know, there should be about 10,000 enemy troops in the mountains at the moment. Of the 10,000 or so soldiers, only four or five thousand people went out, what does this mean? It means that the enemy is only going out to hunt for food or to find out what is going on. Don't worry, when our army arrives at the Yinshan camp, the soldiers and horses from Shanxi should also come back. ”

After listening to Zhang Wei's analysis, Shi Xiong's hanging heart finally let go, "It's so hanging!" I thought I'm going to miss again this time. All the soldiers, hurry up and rush to Yinshan. ”

On the way, Zhang Wei said to Shi Xiong: "Actually, General Shi's worries are not unreasonable, judging from the current situation, the enemy does plan to evacuate Yinshan." If we do not quicken our pace, it is possible that the enemy will withdraw from the Yinshan camp within a day or two. ”

"How so?"

"Did the general realize that since our army arrived in Hengzhou, we have never seen the enemy army coming to attack the people, isn't this normal?"

Shi Xiong nodded heavily, "What does this mean?" ”

"The Shanxi army, which originally relied on killing people to gain a sense of survival, suddenly stopped attacking our people, which fully shows that they have realized that there is no way to survive in Hengzhou by killing people alone, and they must change their previous way of fighting." Zhang Wei continued: "There is another meaning that the enemy has begun to split internally, forcing the Shanxi army to adjust its thinking. If I'm not mistaken, there must have been quite a few of the enemy who had already left the Shanxi army. ”

When he was in school, his philosophy teacher told him that when a group suddenly changes dramatically, it is not the result of external causes, but internal causes. According to the famous assertion of the philosophy teacher, Zhang Wei judged that there must be a big problem within the army of Shanxi.

After listening to Zhang Wei's analysis, Shi Xiong asked: "You just said that the enemy of Shanxi went out today to find a place to live, what does this mean, isn't the army of Shanxi going to Nurul Tiger Mountain?" ”

"I can't go back, I can't go back completely." Zhang Wei let out a long sigh and said: "Since they left Nurur Hushan and marched westward, it has been shown that the Shanxi army will not be able to return at all, I guess that the reason why the Shanxi army is heading west today is that it is very likely to explore the Hetao area, if it can survive there, maybe the enemy still wants to stay in the Hetao." ”

There must be no going back, a time at this time, there is no room for them to live in the land of Nurul Tiger Mountain, scorched earth everywhere, corpses and bones all over the ground, in addition to sadness is sadness; In addition, if the Shanxi army wants to return to the land of Nurul Tiger Mountain again, it must pass through the land of Youzhou in the Tang Dynasty.

Killed so many people, can you spare them? Now there is no way back for the Shanxi army except for one way to the black.

The enemy of Shanxi wants to live in the land of the Hetao?

After listening to Zhang Wei's analysis, Shi Xiong said: "What you said is very reasonable, judging from the current situation, it seems that the enemy has no way out except to go to the land of Hetao. ”

"General, when the enemy has no way out, it is also the best moment for our army to destroy the enemy army. People's hearts are fluctuating and they do not want to forge ahead, and our army just took the opportunity to completely annihilate the enemy. Zhang Wei said.

"Well--, you're right." After that, Shi Xiong quickly whipped up his horse and took Zhang Wei and the others to Yinshan quickly.

On the way, Zhang Wei's army encountered a Turkic team made up of his own people, and at this time they were transporting the supplies needed by the army and marching through the night.

"You don't have to worry, just rush to the Yinshan camp before dawn tomorrow." Zhang Wei then ordered one of the scouts who had just arrived to follow the caravan so that the team would not get lost in the desert.

Worked hard all the way, and finally came to a place less than ten miles away from Yin Mountain. At this time, it was already the second half of the night, the moon had sunk in the west, and the night was even cooler.

"General, order the soldiers to put sticks in their horses' mouths." Zhang Weilema said to Shi Xiong.

Putting a stick in the horse's mouth?

The old question met the new master, and Shi Xiong, who heard this, was no less surprised than yesterday, "What are you talking about, what are you doing with a wooden stick in the horse's mouth?" ”

Hey, I'll have to repeat the simple question again.

Zhang Wei really didn't want to explain these things to them, didn't he bother!

But in the face of the studious Shi Xiong, Zhang Wei had to say to him again: "General, we came all the way, the war horse kept neighing, and the sound of the horse's hooves shocked the four fields, and now it is less than ten miles away from the camp of Shanxi Yin Mountain, if the war horse is still neighing, it will inevitably wake up the sleeping Shanxi army." Once the Shanxi army wakes up, will we still be able to ambush the enemy? If we put a stick in the horse's mouth, the horse will not be able to neigh, and we can ride the horse to the nearest place to the enemy, which is more conducive to attacking the enemy at close range, what does the general think? ”

"Well--, this is a good idea, all the soldiers, now that we are very close to the army of Shanxi, in order not to disturb the enemy, Ben will order you all to put wooden sticks in your horses' mouths, and don't let your war horses call again. Ben General said, whose war horse screamed at the critical moment and disturbed the enemy, Ben General will not spare it. Shi Xiong ordered his soldiers.

"No---" Shi Xiong's soldiers replied in unison.

The Horsebit Straw Man is silent.

After everything was ready, Shixiong Zhang Wei led tens of thousands of ** to the Shanxi camp in Yinshan.
