"Ye Gongzi, it's all my fault, it's all my fault, I regret not listening to your instructions to lead to such a big defeat......"

Mu Kuo, who returned from defeat, looked at his brother Mu Feng, who was covered with bruises, covered his hands and knelt in front of Ye Yin and cried, this battle directly caused more than half of the five thousand herdsman cavalry to be lost because of his own light enemy rashness, and many of the survivors still had scars on their bodies, especially Mu Feng almost died to save himself, and he was even more guilty and annoyed.

"Alas......" After listening to Mu Kuo's description of the war, Ye Yin looked at Mu Kuo who was kneeling on the ground, and sighed heavily, "You get up first, you can't do this thing, it's better to wait back and let the military governor decide, now that your war is over, the generals in the clan need to be appeased, go down and rest first......"

Mu Kuo wanted to say more, but when he saw Mu Feng coming behind him, he patted him on the shoulder, signaling him to do what Ye Yin said, so he had to get up with his fists and leave very depressed.

After Mu Feng and Mu Kuo left, Ye Yin said to Huo Qing, who was playing with the speculum on the side, and Zhuo Shaoyun, who had a solemn face: "Two generals, what do you think about this? ”

"Attacking lightly against the enemy, it is already taboo for soldiers, and launching an attack without judging the specific situation, this Mu Kuo is really too arrogant......" Huo Qing put down the speculum in his hand and said with a smile on his face at Ye Yin.

"It's no wonder that the Mufeng Patriarch is ......," Zhuo Shaoyun said, "After all, our army has been invincible since the Northern Expedition, and now it is approaching Shuoyang City, and the officers and men in the army will inevitably underestimate the enemy. ”

"Then you have to distinguish it...... Huo Qing said to Zhuo Shaoyun with a smile, "If you can win in a tough battle, that is called self-confidence, and only those like Mu Kuo who misjudge the situation are called arrogant, if this battle is fought by me, then the eight thousand Hulan infantry will definitely be defeated in one battle!" ”

Zhuo Shaoyun smacked his lips, and it was hard to say anything, after all, Huo Qing was recognized by the whole army at this time, and a thousand new troops could kill tens of thousands of Hu Nu corpses all over the field, and this kind of record did have the qualifications to say this.

After listening to their words, Ye Yin smiled and said, "Since this is the case, then it is not enough to trouble the two generals to immediately lead the troops to burn this batch of heavy grain and straw......"

Zhuo Shaoyun was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Ye, the enemy army is strong, our army is newly defeated, and morale is low, how can we meet the enemy?" ”

"Wonderful!" As soon as Zhuo Shaoyun's words fell, Huo Qing shouted excitedly, "Young Master Ye, what you said is very reasonable, I'll go and prepare for the pursuit!" ”

After speaking, Huo Qing turned around and walked towards the place where the Overseer Guard, who was resting not far away.

"He is worthy of being a general who is valued by the military governor, and he understands the intention of Bucai so quickly......" Looking at Huo Qing's departing figure, Ye Yin nodded approvingly.

"Mr. Ye......"

"Commander Zhuo, you should also go with General Huo, he will explain clearly to you along the way......"

"Command!"

Since Ye Yin said so, Zhuo Shaoyun didn't ask any more, and also ordered his men and horses to prepare to go with Huo Qing to pursue Sarah's baggage army.

……

"Boom ......"

On the avenue, Huo Qing and Zhuo Shaoyun led 1,300 cavalry to chase after the disappearing Hu Nu in front of them along the traces on the ground.

Zhuo Shaoyun's three hundred overseers and guards had one person and three horses, and the other two horses were carrying heavy armor, and Huo Qing's personal guard battalion was also one person and two horses, ready to switch back and forth to preserve the physical strength of the war horse, and the whole land was almost trembling with the roaring sound of iron hooves

After walking forward for a while, Zhuo Shaoyun finally couldn't help but ask Huo Qing, "General Huo, can you tell me why Mr. Ye let us pursue Hu Nu at this time?" ”

Huo Qing smiled when he heard this: "Commander Zhuo, in fact, Ye Gongzi did this the same as when you used the trick to take Jucheng, our army was newly defeated and the morale was low, the enemy army definitely didn't expect that we would send troops to intercept again at this moment, this is the time for them to relax their vigilance, and they will not guard against us, if you are the leader of Hunu, can you expect that someone will continue to pursue?" ”

"I see, ......" Zhuo Shaoyun suddenly realized after listening to Huo Qing's words, "Mr. Ye is young, he can think of a strategy to break the enemy so quickly, no wonder he can get so much attention from the military governor." ”

Huo Qing smiled casually: "This is natural, Ye Gongzi has been known as a prodigy since he was a child, and he dared to persuade tens of thousands of troops to surrender alone at the age of more than ten to avoid a war, and the situation in Youzhou was even a person who persuaded 100,000 troops to defect and made great contributions to pacifying the civil strife in Youzhou.

This kind of courage and strategy will naturally be greatly valued by the military governor, and in my estimation, this defeat of the herdsmen may also be intentional by Ye Gongzi, the purpose is to let you and me make new contributions on the battlefield......"

Zhuo Shaoyun thought deeply, and then asked: "General Huo, having said that, according to the intelligence office, there are tens of thousands of enemy troops escorting the baggage this time, and we only have more than 1,000 horsemen here, and if we want to burn those baggage smoothly, I'm afraid it's not so easy......

"Soldiers are expensive but not much more expensive!" Huo Qing said with great confidence, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, the chance of winning this trip is at least seventy percent.

Although the enemy army is numerous, more than half of it is composed of slave troops with insufficient combat strength, and these soldiers who have not been properly trained and have incomplete armor and weapons are not to be feared.

Second, although there are about 15,000 remaining Hulans, there are only seven or eight thousand real Hulan people, and with the arrogant attitude of the Hulan people, I don't believe that they can get along in harmony, as long as these seven or eight thousand people are defeated, the remaining Hunu will be as troubleless as those slave armies.

Third, most of the enemy troops are infantry, but we are all cavalry as the main force and each is elite, even if the battle situation is unfavorable, we can calmly retreat.

This fourth enemy did not expect us to surprise us, as long as it caused chaos in their army, these baggage will be destroyed smoothly! ”

"Shaoyun is taught!" After listening to Huo Qing's analysis, Zhuo Shaoyun respectfully bowed to him on horseback, "I didn't expect General Huo to be so young, but he can have such an opinion, Shaoyun really admires it!" ”

Huo Qing smiled when he heard it and said: "Commander Zhuo is polite, these are just foolish opinions, but it is easy to burn these grains and grasses, if you want to annihilate this group of Hu slaves and obtain greater military merits, you also need the help of Commander Zhuo, I don't know if Commander Zhuo is willing to cooperate with me to turn this group of Hu slaves on their backs?" ”

"Everything is subject to General Huo's instructions, Shaoyun will definitely try his best to cooperate!" Zhuo Shaoyun was shocked by Huo Qing's appetite, since he could make a great contribution, Zhuo Shaoyun was naturally unwilling to let go of such an opportunity.

Huo Qing said: "Well, since Commander Zhuo believes in it so much, then we will ...... like this."

Huo Qing and Zhuo Shaoyun described their plans in detail, and Zhuo Shaoyun couldn't help nodding when they heard it.

The roaring iron hooves trampled through the wilderness, and the enemy's baggage troops were getting closer and closer......
