Later, Gong Qiuhu hurriedly invited Ma Zhong and Cen Wolf, Li Fei, and Leshui to serve as soldiers.

Looking at the hurried appearance of the public enemy, everyone had a faint premonition in their hearts.

"Coming?" Li Fei asked.

"It's coming!" Gong Qiu Hu said with a serious face.

Cen Wolf gasped and hurriedly ran up to the watchtower.

Looking out from the watchtower.

In the distance, I saw that in the distance to the east, the dust was slowly raised, and although the smoke and dust were finely broken, they slowly dispersed, and shrouded them like dark clouds.

Cen Wolf saw such a scene for the first time in his life, and he couldn't help but say in a lost voice, "It's a riding camp!" ”

The whole battalion and the whole battalion of cavalry, the whole battalion of cavalry with thousands of war horses at the head of one battalion!

You must know that during the last Chaisang Rebellion, the sons and daughters of Wu County took out the old foundations of each family and came out to lose, with 20,000 elite soldiers and only 800 cavalry in their hands.

And now there is a cavalry with a lieutenant battalion on the opposite side, and there are thousands of war horses in the cavalry battalion inside!

Xu Sheng, as the military governor guarding Wuhu, an important town on the Yangtze River, has a hundred horsemen under his command, and he is already very proud.

After the death of Hou Qing, the commander of his hundred cavalry, he could only be temporarily replaced by Bu Zhao, the captain.

One can imagine what it means to command a cavalry corps in Koto.

Right now, it was such a force outside the law that appeared in front of everyone.

Li Fei and the others also rushed up, and they also saw the smoke and dust.

Li Fei hurriedly asked, "How far is the enemy?" ”

Cen Wolf has no experience in this area and can't judge it. Gong Qiuhu recently gathered dozens of horses to understand all the annoying soldiers, and summed up some knowledge of cavalry.

"Counting their rest horsepower, they can come over in less than half a day!"

"Less than half a day." Ma Jian frowned and continued to ask, "What if they rush over without sparing their horsepower?" ”

"This ......," Gong Qiuhu apparently realized that his estimate might be too optimistic.

"Then I'm afraid we'll be able to see them in an hour. However, at that time, I am afraid that only the cavalry battalion came, and the infantry should not be able to keep up, and their physical exertion must be not small, and they may not be able to continue the battle. ”

"An hour!" Ma Tan looked at the camp and frowned.

At present, the camp is only built to level the land at key locations, dig tunnels and bury the foundation grooves of the wall, and the wall is still simply enclosed with wooden fences.

Because the excavation of foundation trenches and earthworks occupy a large amount of manpower, except for some watchtowers and arrow towers in the camp, which do not delay the work process, a large number of works have not yet been carried out.

"What now?" Several soldiers looked at each other.

Now that this new camp has been repaired to this extent, it is really tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it.

"How long will it take?" Ma Jian was a little unwilling.

He was the one who was bent on giving up the old camp, and if he didn't have enough time, he wasted his efforts.

Not to mention that he can't give an explanation to the brothers, he will let Zhang Liaobai get a camp.

Cen Wolf touched it, his face was not very good-looking, "One afternoon......"

Ma Tan's heart was filled with hope, and Cen Wolf added, "One more morning." ”

Ma Tan's heart immediately sank.

In any case, Zhang Liao's army will definitely arrive this evening.

Tomorrow morning is the first time that the two sides will try to attack each other, and there will be absolutely no chance that the relief troops will be able to complete the fortifications while resisting the onslaught of cavalry.

Leshui, who usually doesn't talk much, made a rare gesture, "Everyone, in my opinion, we will suffer from chaos if we continue to make decisions, if we don't give up this camp at this time, I'm afraid we will encounter greater trouble." If we're tied up here with such a mess, we're in a bad position. ”

"But the problem of water shortage in that old camp is really a huge hidden danger!"

Leshui said seriously, "I can't take care of it!" ”

Ma Jian was in a mess at this time, and he didn't know what to do, so he hurriedly asked Xiang Cen Wolf and Li Fei, two more experienced soldiers, "Both of you, you have been leading troops for a long time, and you should have some ideas in your heart." What do you think should be done? ”

Cen Wolf glanced at Ma Yan, "Do you still need to ask?" Hurry back and fix the old camp, there are still a lot of things over there. If I hadn't come here to toss around, I'm afraid it would have been built sturdy and sturdy a long time ago. ”

Li Fei thought about it, but still chose a serious attitude, "I also think I should go back as soon as possible." Although our old camp is close to here, there is also a distance, so we can plan early when we go back early. ”

Speaking of this, Li Fei reminded, "Don't forget the scouts on the other side, they probably don't know where to look at us now, and our every move is in the eyes!" Just because they didn't react doesn't mean they don't know that we're here to repair the camp. ”

Gong Qiu Hu sighed on the side, "Why didn't you react, those cavalry came in such a hurry, they must have come to attack us." Thinking about it this way, it is estimated that they will not rest their horsepower. ”

Everyone, every word you and I say has the meaning of retreating.

Ma Tan had no idea for a while, so he had to give a gloomy order, telling everyone to quickly pack up their things and prepare to leave.

"And this camp?" Leshui asked as if asking.

Ma Yan's heart suddenly moved, and asked, "How many of us are here?" ”

This was a little strange, but everyone still replied, "Everyone who can come is here, Cen Junhou is a little old and weak to stay at home." We'll have to hurry back. ”

Ma Tan heard that there was something in his mind that he wanted to grasp, but he couldn't find it.

Seeing that Ma Yan didn't speak, Li Fei couldn't help but ask, "Join the army, you still have to speak about this matter." Cen Wolf, this kid is not another Sima, this is a big deal, and you have to decide. ”

Cen Wolf was said by Li Fei, and he was about to say it, but he was a little embarrassed to speak.

Ma Jian took a deep breath and looked at everyone sincerely, "Everyone, can you give me a little time to calm down." ”

"This?" Cen Wolf was a little displeased. "When you make up your mind, Lao Tzu's head will be cut off by the wolf rider of the state!"

Li Fei was also a little hesitant, obviously Ma Yan's actions were really unsteady.

However, Leshui said very calmly, "There won't be much time to delay left and right, the battle must be fought, we still have an hour to go, these few steps, two or three back and forth are more than enough." ”

Li Fei heard Leshui say this, and he also felt that there was some truth.

He thought for a moment and said, "The annoying soldiers are subordinate to each other, and they are not subordinate to each other, so if there is anything, they will join the army and call the shots." The prudent handling of the military adviser,...... And rightfully so. Besides, we can first let the soldiers below stop and rest, whether they stay or stay, it is always right to recuperate. ”
