Chen Kaizhi seems to have made up his mind.

His goal now is very simple, but now he ignores everything, just chase Hu Ren and beat him.

As for the rest, I'll talk about it when I'm done beating Hu Ren.

He stared at the map and raised his eyes for a long time: "Tianshui and Wuwei and other places, how are they now?" ”

Su Ye came from here with his family, and he knew best what he wanted to do there.

"The people's grievances are boiling." Su Ye sighed: "Since the Hu people are ministers, the Hu people have repeatedly asked Xiliang to supply grain and grass, in order to meet the Hu people, they have to levy and extort violently, not to mention, the Xiliang people have always been fierce, unwilling to admit defeat, and the Hu people are even more incompatible, and now they are compromised, and the Manchu Dynasty is resentful, and now, it is just relying on the strong pressure of the national teacher." So...... The old minister also implored that His Majesty should not treat the Xiliang people as thieves when he marched into the army this time, and it was better to follow Liu Bang into the customs and make three chapters of the law. ”

Chen Kaizhi nodded: "Since this expedition to the west, it is to save the subjects of Xiliang from fire and water, so only the evil will be punished, and the soldiers and people of Xiliang will never be harmed." ”

The army continued to the west, but it was much more cautious, so the speed of the march was not fast, and in a few days, the number of inhabitants who had come from the west exceeded 10,000.

The Xiliang court tried in vain to strengthen the wall and clear the wilderness, but as everyone knows, many Xiliang soldiers have long lost their fighting spirit, and many officers and soldiers have come all the way east and surrendered; There are also many people who have moved east with their families.

This so-called strong wall clears the wilderness, but now, it seems a bit like a joke.

Chen Kai's battalions encountered the Xiliang soldiers and civilians, so don't do any harm, and at the same time, they still sent a large number of scouts to try their best to find out the news.

Sure enough, Tianshui was already in sight, and a scout came to tell him that tens of thousands of iron horsemen of Helian Dasong appeared in the rear of the Western Expeditionary Army, and they intercepted the grain route of the New Army and burned a grain team, but did not rashly launch an attack on the rear team of the Western Expeditionary Army, but directly stationed near the lake, obviously, to cut off the connection between the Western Expeditionary Army and the Guannei.

Should it come...... It's still coming!

Chen Kaizhi did not hesitate, immediately changed the rear team to the front team, and then advanced towards Helian Dasongbu.

The original forward battalion was used as a rear team and was responsible for the aftermath.

Da Da Da ......

The scouts of the Hu people are like a whirlwind, to the golden tent of the Hu people.

Immediately, the man arrived at the tent of Helian Khan.

Helian Khan, who was drinking and merry-drinking with the chiefs of the tribes, saw the panting scout coming, and put down the horns and wine cups, and the rest of the people who were laughing and laughing were also silent.

"Great Khan, Chen Jun killed the horse gun and headed towards Helian Dasongbu."

Helian Khan laughed, not impressed, and then his eyes fell on He Xiu.

He Xiu hurriedly got up, but his face was flushed: "They have been tricked, now His Royal Highness Helian has intercepted the contact between the Chen army and the Guannei, and the cheap slave yesterday has sent people to the Guannai to spread the news of the defeat of the Chen army, which is bound to make the people in the Guannei panic, so now we must not make the Chen army kill back, to surround it, then the countries will definitely use troops in a hurry, Chen Kai's pass is not guaranteed, and it has become a lone army, once it is besieged, it will definitely die." ”

One of the clan leaders sneered: "Just by spreading the news, you can make people believe that the Chen army has been defeated?" ”

This Hu man is not a fool, although the power of rumors is not small, but relying on rumors alone, if you want to make countries take action, this is simply a fool's dream.

He Xiu smiled and patiently explained: "The key to the problem is not here, if it is in the past, it will naturally be difficult for rumors to make countries make up their minds." But once they learned that the Chen army was defeated, it was equivalent to burning their eyebrows, think about it, aren't the countries worried, if they hesitate, we Hu people, and we will enter Guanzhong? Therefore, they will definitely move their troops as soon as possible to encroach on the Chen soil, and only in this way can they finally bargain with the Great Khan. What's more, as long as one country can't bear it and starts to use troops, how can other countries be idle, and now Dachen is empty, and whoever takes the lead will get the greatest benefits, so no one wants other countries to compete for the lead, but they are afraid that once the news comes out, all countries will scramble, and they can't wait patiently to verify the news. ”

Helian Khan frowned: "In this case, then, immediately send troops to besiege the Chen army, in the past two hundred years, there has never been a Han army in the pass, looking for us for a decisive battle, today this Chen Kaizhi ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, then, it is okay, this is the sky to make the Han die at the hands of Ben Khan, order, all the departments gather, gallop to the aid of Helian Dasong!" ”

………………

Countless military horses gathered in one direction.

Within a radius of 100 miles, there were continuous camps everywhere, and at this moment, Chen Jun also began to shrink.

The lake in the distance is already faintly visible, but ...... The Hu people were different from the Chen army, the Hu people rode horses and were very fast, so it was difficult for the Chen army to pursue, so they could only confront the Hu people.

In the vicinity of this lake within a radius of dozens of miles, the two armies faced each other, and the battalions of the Chen army were also arranged nearby, and the army's food stock was enough to meet the needs of half a month, and the ammunition was also sufficient.

The new 5th Battalion on the left flank encountered a Hu iron cavalry.

It seemed that the Hu people wanted to take this opportunity to test the depth of the new army, so thousands of iron horsemen launched an attack without hesitation.

The countless war horses were killed from the flanks of the New Fifth Battalion.

The new fifth battalion immediately began to be on alert, and the battalion officer Zhang Chao gave the order to prepare for battle.

Immediately afterwards, the recruits subconsciously began to shrink one by one, lined up, they had just arrived, they had not yet set up camp, let alone dug trenches to arrange fortifications, fortunately, they were well-trained in peacetime, and under the leadership of veterans and backbones, they quickly formed a formation.

Immediately after, the battle began.

With the fire booming through the sky.

And the sound of horses' hooves is also like thunder trampling the earth, the Hu people did not take any advantage, after entering the range, more than 100 people were shot down in an instant, and the rest of the Hu people iron cavalry seemed to have the purpose of tentative attack, so they did not continue to rush and kill, but rushed out frantically, and then retreated.

The scale of this battle was not large, and the time was not long, and the results were naturally not rich, but it made the recruits who were nervous before settle down at once.

Looking at the hundreds of corpses left behind, they gradually understood that the Hu people were nothing more than that.

But in the eyes of Zhang Chao, the battalion officer of the new fifth battalion, and several brigade officers, they were like deflated balls.

After all, there are rivers and mountains everywhere, but here, it is an endless flat land, and the other party is all cavalry familiar with bows and horses.

The task of the new Fifth Battalion was to control the northeast side of the lake, to deal with the Chinese army twenty miles away, and to hold a small hill in the vicinity, and to occupy some commanding heights, which can be said to be hills.

If you want to attack, people can turn around and go, and you can't catch up, and if you take a step back, people can chase and kill, and it's annoying.
