The troops brought out were drawn from the whole army by the Divine Cavalry, and they were all regular forbidden troops in formation.

However, this unit has not been trained for many years, not to mention participating in the election of generals, whether it can smoothly go to Wuzhou for the election is a problem, and at the beginning of the formation of the unit, Ming Fu had almost no confidence.

But after a month of intensive training, he saw a little hope, at least these veterans who had actually been on the battlefield could still raise their fighting spirit for honor, and despite complaints, they could still train for five or six hours a day.

After marching for more than a month, the army composed of this veteran finally arrived in Wuzhou from the Nanjianzhou garrison under his leadership.

Returning to the camp of the Divine Cavalry, the order was immediately issued, and the officers of each team assembled.

In the face of dozens of people, Ming Fu looked a little excited, and his eyes swept over and over again on everyone's faces.

"General, if you have something to say, let's just say it, is it our turn to enter the mountain?"

A lieutenant asked in a loud voice.

"You're right."

Ming Fu replied in a deep voice.

"Brothers, it takes a thousand days to raise soldiers, and tomorrow it's our turn to play! Forty-one forbidden troops in the general camp, although our god cavalry is not the first to enter the mountain, we must be the first team to win the challenge! ”

Ming Fu shouted loudly to the captains, his words were sonorous and powerful, and his tone was very firm.

"Think about how famous my Divine Cavalry used to be, everyone in the whole army has a tall horse, galloping on horseback, and how many hard battles have been fought with the Jin people in the north, but now we are nested in the southeast mountains, in the obscurity of Nanjianzhou for nearly ten years, we have lost our fighting spirit, corrupted our bodies, and if we don't rise up, the Divine Cavalry Army will be gone, and maybe it will soon be merged into the Xiang Army and become a person who eats and waits for death. Do you want to be like that? ”

His gaze swept over the faces of the crowd, and he saw their gradually changing expressions.

"I don't want to!"

"Good. Then tomorrow we will win this challenge together and reshape the name of the Divine Cavalry! It may be very hard to enter the mountains, but you must remember that we used to be a galloping cavalry, and we are still a cavalry when we come to the mountains! Go back and tell your brothers that there will be a military order at any time after entering the mountain, everyone follow the order, and we will definitely win this battle!" ”

"Yes!"

A group of lieutenants clenched their fists and rushed out of the barracks.

How brilliant the Divine Cavalry used to be, they were almost all veterans, in the north and the Jin people for more than ten years, each of them was a hard battle, because there was no supplement, more than ten years down, the entire Divine Cavalry Army from the initial tens of thousands, until only more than 2,000 people left, and so on to the south of the Yangtze River, all the war horses were confiscated, supplemented to the various armies in the north of the Yangtze River, this once battlefield galloping forbidden army was completely abolished.

Today they have a chance to return to the battlefield and regain their former glory, which is worth every veteran's best efforts!

The weapons were received that night, and the officers and men of the whole army were waiting for the day.

This night, I don't know how many people have no sleep.

Early the next morning, before the sun rose, the Divine Cavalry left the camp and entered the mountains, and the ranks were mighty and their morale was high, and they rushed to the battlefield.

"General Ming, be careful after entering the mountain, don't take the old road of the Xuanwei Army!"

"The Xuanwei Army can't do it, you Divine Cavalry must fight for breath, we are waiting for your good news!"

"Do a good job, kill them, I invite you to drink wine and eat meat!"

"General Ming, go early and come back early!"

These parting words, whether sincere or false, Ming Fu just hugged his fists and smiled, and did not care.

There were many fewer generals of the various armies who came to see them off than in the previous two days, and most of them came to see them off simply to see the troops of the selected generals' battalion defeated.

"I won't say anything else, good luck."

Shen Jin also came to see him off, who loses and who wins, he is actually a little contradictory, the Divine Cavalry wins, it means that the preparation of the general camp is not good, if the Divine Cavalry loses, maybe there will not be many outstanding generals selected this time.

"Thank you Shen for joining the army!"

Ming Fu clasped his fists and saluted, said goodbye to everyone, and then quickly walked out of the camp, caught up with the large army, and merged into the divine cavalry.

"Let's go, let's go back, the Divine Cavalry is also a loser, look at their soldiers, how old are they, can you find people in their teens and twenties?"

"I just saw a soldier, I'm afraid they are all forty-five years old, what kind of battle are they fighting at such an age, it's good not to die of exhaustion in the middle of the road."

"What I said is that this kind of team is also pulled out to select generals, it seems that the Divine Cavalry Army has a name, and they are no one."

"It's the same as some of you, how many of your team are forbidden soldiers, dare you tell us?"

"Your team is full of forbidden soldiers?"

"What, can't you add a few new recruits?"

"How many are you? Do you want to pull it out and take a look? ”

................

The bored and bickering army commanders will soon leave the camp gate and walk towards the camp, but it is not their turn to enter the mountain, those who want to enter the mountain will still train, and the forbidden army who has given up the challenge of entering the mountain, or is ready to give up the challenge, will basically not spend a few hours a day training.

Two quarters of an hour later, the judging team, escorted by the forbidden army, came from the camp to the camp gate.

"How far have the Divine Cavalry gone?"

General Li raised his eyes and looked at the mountains to the east, but there was no longer a challenge team.

"About two miles, not long after entering the mountain. The two generals are careful all the way! ”

Shen Jin hugged his fists and saw him off.

The judging group left the camp and quickly pursued the challenger in front of them.

After waiting for the logistics support team configured by the general battalion as the judging group to keep up, Shen Jin left.

There are not many of the remaining forbidden troops ready to go into the mountains to challenge, but I hope the Divine Cavalry can bring back good news.

It was almost noon, the temperature in the mountain rose, and the soldiers of the Divine Cavalry who had been marching on the mountain road for several hours were almost sweating on their foreheads, and some veterans were physically exhausted and wanted to rest for a while, but they could not hear the general order to rest.

The Ming Fu march was in the first echelon of the Divine Cavalry Army, and in front of him was a pathfinder team of more than 20 people.

While he was walking, a spy suddenly came back to report the military situation.

"General, there is no trace of enemy troops in the five miles ahead!"

"Remember there's a three-way intersection ahead, how far is it from here?"

Ming Fu ignored the military information reported by the spies, and there was almost no good place to set up an ambush within ten miles, so he was not worried.

"Back to the general, the three-way intersection is two miles away from here."

"Okay, keep investigating!"

Without a moment's rest, the whole army continued to march until a quarter of an hour later they reached the three-way junction into the mountains.

There are two roads ahead, one to the east and one to the north.

"The whole army to the east!"

Ming Fu stopped on the side of the road and immediately gave the order to the herald.

Under the leadership of the front team, the Divine Cavalry went directly to the east, which was a road that the Xuanwei Army had walked.

Half an hour later, the spies of the Xuanjiang Battalion, ten miles away, obtained the enemy's information, and the enemy troops rushed directly to the temporary station of the Xuanjiang Battalion.

After another half an hour, the troops of the selected general battalion, which were assembling on a ridge in the middle of the mountain, received the enemy information obtained by the spies in front, and Yao Chang, the commander of the troops, immediately ordered the whole army to camp on the spot.

The day before yesterday, the river valley where the Xuanwei army was ambushed was five or six miles away from here, Yao Chang understood that although that place was good, it was not suitable for setting up an ambush again, and the ridge at his feet extended two or three miles from north to south, and the only mountain road to the temporary camp crossed the ridge, and the ridges on the north and south sides were not narrow, overgrown with trees, and there were also hidden paths, which could ambush thousands of people, just wait for the enemy army to cross the ridge, follow them, and when the time comes, they will suddenly kill, and they will be able to hit them by surprise and win this game when they are prepared, not difficult at all.

After determining the enemy's movements, the whole army quickly set up camp, and judging by the enemy's itinerary, they would not climb the mountain at their feet until tomorrow, and they would have to spend the night on the ridge tonight.

Observing with the army, Yang Congyi and Zhang, who were also on the ridge, were sitting leisurely on the mountain rocks enjoying the autumn scenery in the mountains, looking at the mountains in the east, the scenery was boundless, the sky was high and the earth was far away, and the mood was comfortable.

"Deputy Envoy Yang, you chose this place for them?"

Master Zhang suddenly turned his head and asked, smiling.

"No, this is their own choice, the war, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, of course the decision is in their own hands, the mountain is inconvenient, if everything has to be decided by me, and then mobilize troops, I am afraid that the fighter plane will be delayed. What do you think of the ridge they chose? ”

Yang Congyi hurriedly explained, but he didn't dare to say much about the issue of military power.

"The old man thinks that this kid has a lot of ideas, this place can be attacked, retreated can be defended, it is an excellent place to arrange troops, it is rare."

After Mr. Zhang's praise, he didn't say anything more, and continued to enjoy the beautiful scenery in the mountains and bask in the sun by the way.

I don't know how long it took, Yang Congyi suddenly saw the soldiers not far away starting to pull out the camp, and felt a little strange in his heart, so he immediately ordered the guards to come forward and ask.

After a few moments, the guards reported: "General Yao ordered the whole army to go down the mountain. ”

"What's going on?"

"They don't know either. Belong to ask? ”

"No need. Pull out the camp and keep up with them. ”

"Deputy Envoy Yang, it seems that they have discovered the fighter."

"Probably not."

Master Zhang got up and flicked the dust and debris on his body.

The Elector's Battalion soon descended the mountain, not to the west, but to the east, not to the west.

After descending the mountain, the troops changed the direction of their march and quickly marched towards the north.

But after less than an hour of marching, another military order came, and the whole army suddenly turned, the front team changed to the rear team, and the rear team became the front team, and the troops quickly retreated to the ridge where they had camped and set up camp again.

The whole army tossed for more than two hours, sweating through the back of their clothes, and complaining a lot.

Yang Congyi and Master Zhang also felt very inexplicable, but considering that Yao Chang was given autonomy over the command of the troops, they didn't send anyone to ask, let him toss, they were the judges of the army's observation, not the generals who participated in the war.

Who knows, less than a quarter of an hour after the whole army re-encamped on the ridge, another general order came: pull out the camp and go down the mountain, and march north!

Military discipline is strict, the main general has orders, and no one dares not to obey military orders.

The sweat on his body was not dry, and the whole army left the camp again, and quickly followed the front team down the mountain.

But this was not the end, after an hour of marching, another military order came: return to the ridge and set up camp!

Hearing the news, four words suddenly popped up in Yang Congyi's heart: Four crossings of Chishui.
