Chapter 586: Black Mountain
The wolf baby was a little surprised when he heard that Chu Huan had chosen a new name for himself, but he quickly fell to the ground on one knee and saluted Chu Huan solemnly.
When he was in the Great Desert, the wolf baby proposed a deal to Chu Huan, he was willing to be loyal to Chu Huan and give his life to Chu Huan, but Chu Huan must also help him find the real murderer behind the murder of Ma Zhengyi.
Chu Huan didn't give a positive reply before, but now that he has chosen a new name for the wolf baby, he will wait for the official agreement to the wolf baby's request.
The white blind man pondered for a moment, and finally said, "My lord, I have no objection to letting the brothers follow the wolf baby to raid the black water, but I can't follow the white blind man." ”
Sun Zikong didn't speak for a long time, and finally said at this moment: "Master, I won't leave." ”
Chu Huan frowned and said, "This is a military order, do you want to disobey the military order?" ”
The white blind man shook his head and said, "My lord, I can't control others, I went to the capital, and I was only accepted by the adults as a brother around me, not a member of the court." And I came to Xiliang this time, just so that the adults can have a good person, the battle of Montenegro is bound to be dangerous, the white blind man stays with the adult, and when the time comes, he really wants to fight, and he can also follow the adult, and be the cold arrow behind the adult. ”
The white blind man had a resolute attitude, Chu Huan knew that although the white blind man was born in the market, he valued love and righteousness, thought about it, and finally nodded and said, "Brother Bai, you will stay by my side." ”
Sun Tzu hurriedly said: "Master, and me!" ”
"No way!" Chu Huan shook his head and said solemnly: "Zikong, I will leave Brother Bai behind, but I really need someone to help me, in case something happens, it will not be possible if there is no confidant around me." After a pause, he said, "I have one more thing to tell you to do, which is more important than staying." ”
Seeing Chu Huan's solemn expression, Sun Zikong immediately said: "Master, you say, what do you want me to do, that is, go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and I will listen to you." ”
Chu Huan shook his head with a smile and said, "There is no need for the sword mountain and the sea of fire. If Mahazang is really defeated, you didn't wait for me at the cliff, remember to find General Xuanyuan secretly, no matter what, you must find them, and tell General Xuanyuan that you know about the civil strife in Xiliang without concealment. After a pause, he said: "If I can't go back, don't go back to the capital, go back to Yunshan Mansion, and tell the Su Dong family in Heshengquan ......!" Speaking of this, he shook his head and smiled, and waved his hand, "It's nothing, wolf baby, Zikong, you two go and prepare with the brothers first, and you may have to leave at any time." ”
The white blind man said: "My lord, there is nothing wrong with letting the wolf baby lead people to sneak attack the Heishui River, but the terrain of the Heishui River, the wolf baby knows nothing......!" ”
Chu Huan smiled and said: "This is not in a hurry, since Mahazang agreed to let the wolf baby lead the troops into battle, then I naturally want to ask him for a map." "Thinking that Maha Tibetan has that extremely detailed military map of Western Liang, it is a treasure for the Qin State, but I don't know if I can take this opportunity to get a military map.
Chu Huan ordered the white blind man and his grandson to retreat first, leaving the wolf baby alone, and whispered for a long time, the wolf baby looked serious, he knew that Chu Huan would hand over such a heavy task to himself, which was a great trust.
The retreating procession, in fact, could not tell who was the herdsman and who was the warrior, stretched for dozens of miles, wriggling to the west, and the herds of cattle and sheep were like speckled traces dotted on the prairie, densely packed.
When the Nashi tribe set out, there were only 20,000 people, and after walking down in two days, there were more than 100,000 people, and they were so vast that they could not see the end at a glance, but the order was not chaotic.
The prairie was full of cold air at night, but the team did not dare to stop and rest, people only knew that a large army was coming, once they were overtaken, it was inevitable that their belongings would be robbed, and their lives would probably be ruthlessly taken by the cavalry chasing from behind.
The main cavalry of the Gulaqin steppe was actually in the Nashi tribe, and Nashi Boguli followed Mahazang's orders, so naturally he would not mobilize the cavalry with great fanfare.
Sneaking up behind enemy lines is a very secret matter, no matter how confused Mahazang is, he also knows that this matter must not be easily revealed, except for that Sbogully, only Qu Lujin knows about it.
At this time, it is normal to mobilize troops and horses, so after Mahazang's order, Sboguli has already mobilized a thousand cavalry in less than half a day.
This thousand cavalry can be said to be the most elite cavalry of the Nashi tribe, and it is also the most courageous warrior in the entire Gulaqin grassland, and it is the hole card of Nashi Boguli's hand.
Although the equipment of this cavalry cannot be compared with the Maha Guard legion, it is much stronger than the ordinary cavalry, and the horses under their crotch are also the best horses in the Gulaqin grassland.
Before sending troops, Mahazang had to sit down with Chu Huan, Na Sbogully, Wolf Wazi, Qu Lujin and others to discuss, a thousand cavalry, divided into two teams, each with 500 cavalry, led by Wolf Wazi and Qu Lujin, Chu Huan once again emphasized that the role of these two troops and horses is not to loot property behind enemy lines, nor to kill more people, the real purpose is to cause panic in the enemy's rear and disturb the morale of the enemy's front army.
Qu Lu felt that there were only five hundred cavalry, and the number was really a little small, but he was a brave man, since Chu Huan said that it was not to loot property and capture territory, but to cause panic to the enemy, he vaguely understood what Chu Huan meant, and he had nothing to say, and such a heavy task was handed over to him, he also knew that this was Mahazang who was very important to him.
The wolf baby's mentality is very good, from beginning to end, his expression is calm, Chu Huanxin has always been a little worried, although the wolf baby is born as a camel and has good kung fu in horseback archery, but whether he can command five hundred cavalry to gallop vertically and horizontally, Chu Huanxin is still a little worried, but seeing the wolf baby's calm and calm appearance, he feels that the wolf baby should not let himself down.
Chu Huan proposed to let his subordinates follow the wolf baby, his reason is simple, this group of subordinates have been trained in raids, if they can follow the wolf baby, they will definitely be able to play a great role, Mahazang only hesitated slightly, but did not refuse, nodded in agreement.
Chu Huan asked Mahazang for a military map again, only saying that Chu Wushuang was not clear about the terrain of Xiliang, and if he wanted to attack Heishui, without a map would be like a blind man touching an elephant.
When Popguli heard that Chu Huan asked for a map, he showed a look of vigilance, but Mahazang was very generous, and he did not hesitate to let Popguli find a map of the black water and give it to Chu Huan.
That Sboguli didn't dare to disobey, he found a map for a long time, and handed it to Chu Huan, when Chu Huan opened it, he felt a little regretful, the military map was a military map, but only the topographic map where the Heishui Zhula tribe was located, and the mark was really detailed, and even the locations of more than 40 tribes on the banks of the Heishui River were marked.
Chu Huanxin also knew that the military map of Xiliang was a very confidential thing, I am afraid that in addition to the high-level figures in Xiliang, it is difficult for ordinary people to even take a look, although Mahazang and himself became brothers, but the two of them have reservations about each other, after all, they belong to different races, such an important thing is related to the fortune of the country, and Mahazang has reservations, which is also something Chu Huan expected.
Mahazang was able to hand over such a detailed map of the Zhula tribe, which had already made Chu Huan very satisfied.
With the assistance of Nasboguli, several people judged the general route of the two enemy armies of the Maharaja and Jura tribes, and instructed them to go around the two lines and make a great detour to the rear of the enemy.
When the night had passed, people did not notice that a thousand cavalry were divided into two teams, and the soldiers were separated from the retreating team to the west, although some people saw it, but in the retreat, such soldiers and horses came and went as many as cattle hairs, and no one was too careful, even if some people saw them go away, they only thought that they were scouts, and went to find out the enemy's movements, and few people knew that these two daggers were stabbed out to pierce the enemy's heart.
……
……
Montenegro, located in the western part of the Gulaqin steppe.
In this vast grassland, in addition to the green and quiet grassland, it is also full of lakes, rivers, forests, and sandy lands, but the mountains and rivers are extremely rare.
Black Mountain is perhaps the largest rocky mountain in the Gulaqin grassland.
In the endless flat steppe, Montenegro may be called a mountain, but compared to a real mountain, Montenegro may only be regarded as a slightly higher rocky slope.
Compared with the real mountains that are often hundreds of meters high, the highest peak of Montenegro is only twenty or thirty meters high, divided into more than a dozen large and small mountains, but the most conspicuous, as shown on the map, are three stone mountains with a height of more than 20 meters.
The three peaks are in the shape of a zigzag, the height of the main peak is more than 30 meters, and the peaks on the left and right sides are about 20 meters, the distance between the three peaks is about ten miles, the peaks on both sides protrude forward, look around with the main peak, form a semi-arc-shaped valley between them, and if other scattered hills, it is really like a stone slope, not only the area is very small, but also the height is extremely low, and it cannot form a barrier at all.
The mountain is intertwined with earth and rocks, and the shrubs are clustered, although it is not high, but it is a forest of strange stones, and it is not very easy to really go up the mountain, and the strange things are steep.
The westward retreat team arrived at Montenegro a day slower than expected, Chu Huan immediately looked into the distance, the sun was setting, and he clearly saw the three peaks of Montenegro in the distance.
Compared with Chu Huan's expectations, the three peaks of Montenegro are still a little shorter, like three desolate monsters, quietly crawling on the vast earth, the soil and stones on the mountain are black and brown, looking from a distance, it seems to be a high slope piled up with three coals, and I vaguely saw the figures flickering on and off the mountain, and there were horses back and forth at the foot of the mountain, knowing that it was the advance team that Sohabu Yuanzhen had set off earlier, and was deploying Montenegro.
Montenegro still looks very peaceful at this time, the afterglow of the sunset shines on the Montenegro, the black mountain is green, the sun is warm, and it is also a beautiful scenery, but Chu Huanxin understands that it will not be long before this place may become a blood-soaked Shura hell field.
