Chapter Seventy-Four: The Southeast
There was silence in the big tent of the Chinese army, and no one came out, because Ma Long's military order was "Rush to the northeast of Shicheng, who can be the vanguard?" β
The generals looked at each other, first, they didn't understand the intention behind this order, second, because there was a vast grassland northeast of Shicheng, and there was neither a city nor a garrison, and third, what was this attack on? Therefore, in a daze, no one received the order. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
Tang Bin was about to step forward, but Yang Ke glanced sideways slightly and stopped him with his eyes, so Tang Bin remained solemn and did not say a word.
Ma Long's eyes were like knives, and he coldly glanced at the generals under this tent: "Why, on weekdays, the rhetoric and slogans are loud and loud, once the army is in front of the enemy, they will be dumb?" β
"The last will go." An urn sounded and the voice of an urn remembered that a burly general gave up his hand.
Yang Ke raised his eyes and saw that this person was eight feet tall, with a dark complexion and an iron tower.
Ma Long nodded: "Well, do you know why this attack is from the northeast of Stone City?" β
The general bowed his head and saluted: "The last general doesn't know, but since the general wants to fight, there is naturally a reason for the general, and the subordinates just follow the military order, and you don't need to understand why." β
The generals couldn't help but laugh, but no one spoke. Malone said: "In that case, Ma Xiong takes the order. β
The big man happily agreed: "The end will be." β
"Order you to lead the elite soldiers of the department as the vanguard, search and advance, there is only one, I and the Chinese army will follow closely, and the distance between you and the Chinese army shall not exceed thirty miles." Malone said.
When Ma Xiong heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "General Yu, since you are a striker, why do you still want to search and advance?" What's that called, but is it just an errand for the scout battalion? β
Ma Long slapped his palm on the handsome case: "The military order is like a mountain, how can there be so many whys, take the order." β
Ma Xiong hesitated for a moment, forcibly held back his words, and took the order.
Ma Long continued to issue military orders, the layout and structure of the entire army did not change, it was nothing more than a change in the route of the march, but only a small number of troops remained, and the route to Lishicheng remained unchanged, but it was strictly ordered not to enter the palace and leave Shicheng easily, but to advance step by step, and advance to fifty miles below the city, it was necessary to have a deep ditch and high fortress, and it was not allowed to act rashly.
The group of people dispersed after receiving the order, and Ma Long was the only one who left Yang Ke, and the two entered the back tent.
Yang Ke looked up and couldn't help but laugh dumbly, the battlefield in the tent had already been white, black and white were clearly distinguished, and there were wines and dishes lined up next to the chessboard.
"Brother Xiulie, prepare a little wine today, you and my brother talk a word, chess opponents, wine and confidants, the two great pleasures in life are nothing more than this, please appreciate the light." Malone bowed sideways.
Yang Ke didn't shirk it, he got on a few beds, and then Ma Long also sat cross-legged, the two of them took a sip of wine and made a move, they were really happy, and they had already forgotten that it was the enemy.
This time, Yang Keke was not so lucky, Ma Long was step-by-step, not arrogant or impatient, every step was thoughtful, and what was even more commendable was that he no longer started the war lightly.
This game lasted for more than an hour, and the two sides were evenly matched, and finally ended with Yang Ke winning, but this time it was no longer the battle a few days ahead, and Ma Long lost his armor, but lost by a narrow number of eyes.
Yang Ke smiled faintly: "The general enters the territory for a thousand miles, and if he goes down, Ke will be willing to bow down." β
Malone stretched out his hand and picked up the wine glass on the side: "You can't drink alcohol in the army, but today I broke this case, and I have something to ask for." β
Yang Ke also raised his glass: "The general has something to order, but it doesn't matter, Ke dares not to obey his orders." β
Ma Long drank the wine in the cup, and lit up the bottom of the glass: "Xiu Lie, you have a long-term strategy, brother, I do have something to understand, I hope you will solve my doubts, brother." β
Yang Ke looked at Ma Long's expression, his face was full of sincerity, and he didn't mean to ridicule, and then said very solemnly: "What difficulties does the general have, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." β
Ma Long sighed and said: "I have been conceited all my life, but in fact, it is not true, the day before yesterday, brother, your words were like an enlightenment, let me suddenly open my mouth, otherwise, these 50,000 troops will almost fall into an unpredictable place." It's just that now I've been thinking hard for a long time, the grassland stretches from the northeast of the stone, and the Hun cavalry has strange tracks, we don't rely on the cavalry alone to fight with one of them, but the infantry can't catch up with them, if the other side avoids the battle, how can we find an opportunity to fight with the opponent's cavalry? β
Yang Ke picked up his wine glass and looked at Ma Long: "Why was the general invincible in the past, Ke is willing to hear about it?" β
Ma Long said: "It's not invincible, it's just a fiction and reality, so that the opponent can't figure out the intentions of our army." β
Yang Ke raised his glass and saluted: "Since it is virtual and real, you might as well repeat the old trick today, the way of using soldiers is not ever-changing, as long as it is effective, you can eat all over the world with one trick." β
"Xiu Lie, what do you meanγγγγγγγγ" Malone asked hesitantly.
"The general's tactics in the past were just a method of luring the enemy, and he moved the enemy step by step, as long as the battle line was lengthened and the distance was shortened, he could naturally find the enemy." Yang Ke said quietly.
Malone suddenly stepped off the marching couch and shouted, "Come on, come on." β
The soldiers entered in response, Ma Long frowned, thought for a moment, and ordered: "Send the order to Ma Xiong, the forward is divided into two teams, the cavalry is in front, and the infantry is in the rear. β
The soldiers paused for a moment, looked at Ma Long and said, "Obey." β
Yang Ke suddenly said: "The general does not hesitate to use the young general as bait, Ke admires it, I am willing to lead my subordinates to meet the major general, looking for an opportunity to duel the Hun cavalry, the general ambushed the army, the Hun cavalry would not have dreamed that we would abandon the city and not fight, but turn to fight for a hundred miles, and eat them in one bite." β
Ma Long looked at Yang Ke, was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Ma Long is just a martial artist, and the dog has also grown up in the army since he was a child, serving the country and dying, the fate of my generation, it's just that Xiu Lie You are a nobleman, how can you take this riskγγγγγγγγ β
Yang Ke stretched out his hand and made a gesture to stop: "The general doesn't need to say much, I will order the horses of the headquarters tonight, and respond to the major general, the general can rest assured, we will definitely annihilate the Hun cavalry and ensure the safe return of the young general." β
After saying this, he didn't wait for Malone to say anything, turned around and walked out of the big tent.
Ma Long looked at Yang Ke's distant figure, but he didn't know where to start. Ma Xiong is one of his favorite sons, brave and good at fighting, and has made many military exploits, today I originally wanted to inspire my subordinates, but I didn't expect my son to jump out. Against the Hun cavalry, this was a choice that most Jin Dynasty generals were unwilling to make, because in that era, cavalry was like tank soldiers in modern warfare, and not everyone had the courage to brush the tiger's whiskers. But the son jumped out of the middle, how could he say: "You are my son, let's go to another person." β
In public, he could only order Ma Xiong to go on the expedition, how could the anxiety in his heart be described in words, until Yang Ke took the initiative to stand up and lead the troops to meet Ma Xiong, so that the stone in Ma Long's heart was half lowered, because he knew that Yang Ke was by no means a gentleman, but had a long-term strategy, Tang Bin was old and serious, governed the army in a good way, and his command was a strong force, and the two of them also had a hundred refining elite soldiers of more than 1,000 people.
