All 30,000 Chen cavalry finally crossed the river.

As soon as they crossed the river, they set out on the pursuit, and in the morning the dew was heavy, and the cloth began to damp, and the morning air did not feel fresh, but was full of the smell of the river and the smell of hair. On the side of the horse team, there were always cavalry passing quickly, shouting to speed up the march, and the crisp chirping of the war horses rang out from time to time throughout the whole ranks, one after another, but it always made people feel that it lacked the jubilation of the past. From Liangzhong and Liangbei to fight, hundreds of miles away, with the heart of death, was driven by the generals, came, but did not take the battle well, was mobilized by Dongxia, and eagerly marched back.

No one can be in a good mood.

The cavalry march is not as restrained as the infantry, there will always be some black sheep who are not good at walking, they are just piled up, front and back, and they just look like a team.

The gap between the fast and slow cavalry march is very large, it is often said that the world's BMW travels thousands of miles a day, and travels eight hundred at night, maybe there is such a war horse, but you have to let it go eight hundred a day, and within two days, its body temperature will rise, lie down and vomit blood. As far as the ordinary march is concerned, if the generals are in a hurry, they don't stop all day long, and the horsepower of the army's war horses is brought into full play, and they can march to about 400 miles.

There was news from the front that the Eastern Xia army had approached Liangzhong City, and a small city on the periphery had been defeated by them.

As soon as the distance was calculated, the distance was close to four hundred miles, and the generals of the Chen army couldn't help but be shocked.

It is equivalent to saying that the Dongxia cavalry marched on the night before, and there was almost no stop on the road, no food, no drink, and even the rotation of war horses, and the speed, at least at least three hundred miles, had arrived at noon or afternoon yesterday, and they did not stop, and they seized the city in one go, so that the news could be transmitted back.

This battle report exacerbated the fear in the hearts of the generals, and the frantic march and unscrupulousness of the Eastern Xia also increased their sense of urgency.

The fast guide of the Eastern Xia army is zhì they have to follow quickly.

And the cavalry, because of the wear and tear of the war, they don't know if they can win the war, they don't know what they can do if they win, and they don't know what the point is to go back and forth.

They have been urged many times in their actions.

The herald who had made the first urging ordered the cavalry to pass quickly, shouting: "Speed up." "The generals hurried the troops, and the cavalrymen put a whip on their buttocks, trotted all the way, and then gradually slowed down. The second time the herald ordered the cavalry to come up again, and the generals had to drive the cavalry forward quickly. The cavalrymen added a few more whips to bring the horses to a medium speed. Then, there was a third urging.

Approaching two nights and a day's journey, this time difference is enough for Dongxia to stand on his feet and do a lot of things, maybe this is the key to success or failure.

Tuoba Weiwei had a sense of fear at the speed of Eastern Xia's advance.

This sense of fear not only comes from the time difference, but also from the unscrupulous unscrupulousness of the Eastern Xia.

On the enemy march, you run so fast, you don't want to die? Are you not afraid of being surrounded by enemies? You're not afraid of the war horse dying of exhaustion?

The generals were also angry, they did not understand why these cavalrymen could not increase their speed, and they went up in a rage, and when they saw that they were walking slowly, they whipped them with their horses.

The horse team was harshly driven, and finally got faster and faster.

By the afternoon, they had marched about 170 miles, which was a limit.

Fifty miles ahead, there is an open field, with woodlands and mounds, and a certain complexity. The Eastern Xia army had returned from marching in the direction of the west, and had filled the area, and Dia Bird, surrounded by civil and military forces, brandished his horsewhip and pointed, and he brought the Ta Da Er Tiger with him, and the Da Da Er Tiger was running around twenty or thirty paces in front of him, catching grasshoppers in the field.

The Eastern Xia army, which was already less than 20,000 under his command, began to scatter.

The counsellors and the Bullocks, who had remained here themselves, guided them according to the plan of the terrain, and led them into places suitable for lurking and attacking.

As the low-ranking generals gave orders one after another, soldiers and war horses continued to lie down silently, regardless of the sun-hot land.

Fan Que honestly followed Dia Bird's side, and opened his mouth to make an intriguing sycophant: "There is the king personally arranged, Li Hu watched, is it not a hand-to-hand capture?" Dia Bird did not eat his sycophants in the slightest, looked back at the thousand soldiers who had bewildered the enemy, and asked him: "Let your men speed up the earthwork." It's better to fake than real. Take a look for yourself, the camp can't be repaired until now, and the obstacles are not arranged, is this telling the enemy, did we leave a rear team here in Dongxia to prevent the Chen army from coming back? Like? Don't stare at Li Hu, you also go up to do something serious, be an uncle, and have an example? ”

How could Fan Que not stare at Li Hu?

That's his family's blood.

Before he left, he didn't forget a "monkey probing claw", and shouted loudly: "Li Hu." My uncle went to supervise the earthwork. ”

It was not so easy to ambush a horse convoy on a rapid march.

As soon as the team is pulled, it is dozens of miles, how big can you ambush in ambush? No matter how you plan to cut off the enemy's rear, the cavalry is scurrying, and the outcome of the ambush is not guaranteed at all. Therefore, there is a small group of Dongxia troops on the ambush site set by Dia Bird, and they are to delay the return of Chen's army to the division, because they are so suffocated, and the terrain here is open, and a large number of cavalry will come in.

This is also an anti-war practice.

According to the standard of an ambush by the general army, the first thing is to hit the enemy by surprise, wait for people to turn over on their backs, and chase and kill all the way. The second is the terrain, how can there be an ambush in such an open place? It was the enemy who was fighting in the shape of a marching army, so that they could not organize an attack, but Diao chose an open field.

There were less than 20,000 people, and the ambush of 30,000 people was also contrary to military common sense.

He didn't know if his generals had reached a certain level, so he could understand it, or if they were mixed with people who didn't learn and didn't know how to refute it with the orthodox theory of using troops, so he shouted Zhao Guo, shouted and left, saying: "What are you going to do with that piece of forest?" ”

Zhao Guo looked up at the sky and said, "If the people who detect the enemy's march come back and can make us judge that the enemy is coming against the sun, I plan to use the method of Xu Xin in front to capture Bo Dalu, and ambush an elite cavalry to raid the enemy's generals." ”

Seeing that Dia Bird was silent, he said, "More than 100 people are fine, otherwise it will not be easy to hide." ”

Diao said softly: "You can rest assured, if there is a big sun in the sky, the generals will run there to enjoy the shade." But Lone only reminds you that the centaurs are hiding in the woods, and once they are discovered, not only will they not be able to get out, but they will also destroy our ambush. So be it. You send someone to hide, and send an uninformed person to investigate, if the person from the orphan faction can't find out, then it means that you can do what you want. ”

Zhao Guo hesitated for a moment and asked rhetorically: "Do you want to get to this kind of journey?" ”

Dia Bird nodded.

He affirmed: "Since the beginning of the army, I have fought side by side with you, and I have been able to defeat a strong enemy in most cases, which is not all about the use of the art of war, but because I pay special attention to the details, and the details can affect the overall situation." He pointed to a high earth cliff with his hand, and said: "If this place goes up to the enemy, the ambush may also be exposed in advance, find a way for Gu, it is really not possible, mobilize two thousand soldiers, dig it up for Gu, don't be afraid of the traces of digging the soil, the sun of Chenzhou is the same as our Dongxia, half an hour of effort, once you run away, there is no difference between new soil and old soil." ”

Zhao Guo nodded, and immediately called someone to do the same.

Without much effort, Dia Bird returned to the guards, and hesitated, not knowing who to pick to check in the forest. If this person is too powerful, no matter how he hides, he can't hide it, but he overthrows Zhao Guo's plan, and the enemy may not be so careful. After thinking for a moment, he settled on a careless man and shouted, "Grab the teeth." Go to the forest over there and see what kind of forest it is, and if there is any fruit? If you have one, you will pick up two for Ah Hu and come back. ”

Grab the teeth simply, "hey", twist the big ass and run.

When he found that the horse ear that had been retracted by Dia Bird was standing aside with his head drooping, he pulled his hand and said, "Let's go." Let's go and see what kind of forest it is. ”

As soon as the tiger heard that there was fruit, he brought up a large string of grasshoppers and wanted to follow.

After a moment's hesitation, Dia called him back.

It's not that Dia Bird thinks that Da Da Erhu is careful, he is a child who is playful, running around in the forest, no matter how good the disguise is, he can't resist the child looking for him.

He called back to Da Da Erhu and said with a smile, "Ah Hu." How about Abba teaching you to stumble? By the time your Abba is 5 years old, he will be able to tie more than a dozen knots. At the time, I didn't know what it was for, but later I realized that hunting, marching, and camping were too important. ”

The tiger's eyes widened.

The father and son found a mound of earth, asked for some ropes, and began to tie knots.

After practicing a few times, he found that it was not difficult, and muttered, "Abba." No wonder you can at the age of 5, it's too easy, and you can learn it all in a while. ”

Dia Bird laughed wickedly and said, "I know a fart." It's easy to tie a few knots, do you know how to use them? It is important to know how to use it, and it is important to remember it when you use it, live buckles, dead buckles, chain buckles, trap buckles, lasso buckles...... The difference is big, one of your aunt's favorite things to do back then was to tie the wooden sheep with a rope, and then pull the rope to pull the wooden sheep, once I gave her a live buckle, she crossed the threshold, the person passed, the wooden sheep stayed behind, tripped by the threshold, and fell to the ground, which distressed people. Now, she still doesn't know what's going on, and when Grandma mentions that she remembers, she just remembers that she cried so much that her face turned purple, and I helped her up and wiped her face. ”

The tiger laughed.

Dia Bird said: "Abba knows that you envy brave people, you have to be the first in the world, but brave people must have the conditions of bravery, called art masters are bold, art is not high, bold is called blind, and they are looking for their own death." If you practice hard, you must at least learn all Abba's skills, so that you can be the first in the world. ”

Da Da Erhu nodded again and again, practiced for a while, turned his head, and saw that the tooth snatching and horse ear cabbage were back, so he asked, "Are there fruit trees in the forest?" ”

Tooth grabbing said, "There's a fart." There is bubble. The tooth pig pulled, and the horse ear cabbage stepped on it. ”

The horse's ear fell more than twenty paces away, and as soon as he heard him speak, he wiped his feet on the mound again.

Diao-bird asked rhetorically, "The tooth pig pulled?" ”

He said, "Yes." We're going to go inside, the horse ear is soft under the feet, raise my feet to show me, I look, as soon as I soak, I will scold there, and the tooth pig who has released his hands ran out and almost fought with me. Said that we stepped on his, he pulled a bubble of, we stepped on it, and he still thought we stepped on his. ”

It turned out that Tooth Pig had been sent to lurk, and he didn't know that he had sent Tooth and Horse Ear to check if he had succeeded in lurking.

He was scolded by Tooth Grabbing and jumped out to blame Tooth Grabbing and trampling on his arrangement.

Dia Bird laughed breathlessly.

But soon, he stopped laughing, he visually measured the distance between the "Queen" army of the earthwork and the woods, and asked: "Horse ear, if you work over there and want to, where will you go?" ”

It was during the crucifixion, and I pondered it as a very strict matter, and finally pointed with my hand and said, "Go over there." They're all men anyway. What's wrong with running around and? There are rules in our camp, so if you go around, it won't be considered a camp. ”

Diao's bird immediately ordered, "This guy who paints snakes. Tooth grabbing. Give me an order to let the tooth pig lick the and clean it, and not leave half a cent. The woods shouldn't have. Not only should there be, but there can't be. Do you see a general running to to avoid the sun? ”

As soon as I heard the tooth snatching and licking it clean, I was happy, and as soon as I twisted my body, I walked away with my big ass upside down.
