Because the forward was blocked, and the other party was not a simple person, Zhao Xun did not let the soldiers march forcibly, but waited for the logistics army in the rear to arrive, and slowly moved forward. Zhao Xun knew that as long as he ran over directly like this, the other party had no way out but to fight, but it was obvious that the opponent was not as good as the Xiaoguo Army in a head-on duel. If you add the echo of the internal response and the response of the banner of the Xiaoguo army at that time, then the cities will not be able to hold it, and the enemy army will no longer be able to use such small means.

Traveling fifty miles in half a day is already a very slow speed, but Zhao Xun is still not impatient.

Thirty miles away from the Xiaoguo Army, it was the temporary camp of Zhang Qinyue, the commander of the government army. Don't look at his name, but he is not delicate, he is completely a big man.

At this moment, he was frowning and listening to the return of his subordinates to explore the horses, the Qingyang Mansion Army did have nearly 10,000 government troops, of which 3,000 were temporarily recruited reserves. But when he really wanted to fight against the Xiaoguo Army, there were only more than 7,000 people willing to follow him. This is also the reason why Yanzhou Mansion gave up the four counties, because his people couldn't hold such a big place.

Zhang Qinyue is Situ Lei's person, and he has received Situ Lei's favor, so he wants to fight against the Xiaoguo army and delay the time for the Xiaoguo army to occupy Jizhou. In fact, he knew better that the purpose of this Xiaoguo Army was actually to attack Qingzhou, and attack the flank or rear of the guards who were now fighting to the death with the Xiaoguo Army in Qingzhou. Therefore, his purpose is to prevent Zhao Xun from achieving his goal.

The previous plan was successful, and whether the vanguard of the Xiaoguo army attacked or did not attack the people, it would be of no harm to him. attack, then ruin the reputation of the Xiaoguo army, and your army will kill the people indiscriminately. If you don't attack, then wait to be eaten. However, now Xiao Guojun's movements made him feel like a mouse pulling a turtle and couldn't speak. Zhao Xun, the commander of the Xiaoguo Army, did not come to revenge as he expected, but slowly advanced step by step, with a strong posture, so that his plan to prepare a surprise attack on the opponent's back road or the grain transportation team went bankrupt.

"No, we have to act, or we will lose." Zhang Qinyue said in a muffled voice.

The sky gradually darkened, and Zhao Xun asked the soldiers to choose an open place to camp and stay.

Taking advantage of the night, Zhang Qinyue rushed over quietly from twenty miles away with four thousand soldiers and horses, and I have to say that if Zhao Xun learned about their current actions, he couldn't help but admire. These government armies are no longer weaker than the Wei army and the Xiaoguo army, and it can also be said that this captain has secretly trained his own soldiers and horses.

Standing on a hill in the distance of the Xiaoguo army camp and looking down, the Xiaoguo army camp is camped, covering an extremely wide area, the camp is very tightly packed, the campfire is lit, and there are many soldiers patrolling back and forth at night.

"Zhang Han and Zhang Dao, the two of you each take 500 people to the dense forests on the north and south sides, bring gongs and drums and other things, and the north and south will sound together. After the Xiaoguo army returns to the camp to rest, continue to beat! We want to let them sleep restlessly. Zhang Qinyue said coldly.

Zhang Han and Zhang Dao took the order and led people to lurk in the mountains on both sides.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

Zhao Xun was feeding Mao Mao in the tent, when he suddenly heard the sound of war drums and horns around the camp, as well as the earth-shattering shouts of killing.

Zhao Xun frowned, shook his head slightly, and said secretly: Night attack? Exhausted tactics?

As the shouts of killing rang out around the camp, the patrol officers in the camp shouted a warning. Immediately, otherwise the men and horses on duty at night dispatched several teams to chase in the north and south directions.

But the sound of gongs, drums and horns disappeared without a trace in an instant, and it was not until the dense forest, after being attacked by cold arrows, that these soldiers who chased out got Zhao Xun's military order and withdrew back.

Seeing that the clothes and armor of the various officers under his subordinates were messy, especially the officers of the 20,000 Martial Army, which was even more unbearable, Zhao Xun couldn't help but shake his head again and again.

"How's it going?" Zhao Xun asked lightly, and the officers of the Yan Army all looked sideways at the little tiger that was gnawing on the bloody pheasant at Zhao Xun's feet, it was really bold to be able to raise the little tiger as a puppy.

"When I returned to the Metropolitan Governor, I did not catch up, knowing that after chasing to the mountains on both sides, I was attacked by cold arrows, and no trace of the enemy army was found." The commander of the Thousand Commanders of the Tatar Army spoke up.

"Great work! So let's leave five thousand to garrison the camp, and the rest sleep with their ears covered with scraps, and ignore whatever is happening outside. ”

"The five thousand men left behind lit a bonfire in the middle of the camp. And there shall be a constant flame of fire around the tents. ”

"As long as no enemy forces attack the camp, whatever it is, ignore it. A hundred meters outside the camp, bonfires were also lit. The crossbow battalion prepared the crossbow arrows and released them as soon as they found the enemy. Zhao Xun issued several military orders in a row.

And Zhang Qinyue, who was on the hill not far from the Xiaoguo army camp, couldn't help but change his face and frowned when he saw the actions of the Xiaoguo army camp.

"It seems that the commander of this Xiaoguo Army is not stupid. It seems to be my intention again. ”

Sure enough, after another half an hour, there was a lot of gongs and drums around the camp, but there was nothing unusual about the Xiaoguo army camp, and the sleep that should have been slept, and the training of the patrol seemed to have not been heard.

"Damn it!" Zhang Qinyue scolded secretly, he really wanted to bring someone in, but he knew that since the other party had seen his plan, he must have been prepared for a long time, and it would be a sheep to enter the tiger's mouth.

"Summons people from both the north and the south, withdraw!" Zhang Qinyue's eyebrows shrunk into a ball, and she ordered in a cold voice.

In the second half of the night, there were no more drums, horns and shouts, and Zhao Xun couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and said secretly: It seems that this master general is not a simple person.

Although I was harassed for a little half of the night, I did sleep soundly in the second half of the night. The officers of the pro-guard army were better, and those officers of the Yan army admired Zhao Xun, the enemy attacked at night, and they could also keep the soldiers still, and in the end, the enemy retreated in ashes, which had already made these soldiers and officers rush to admire. Those high-ranking officers may have seen the enemy's plans, but the junior officers and non-commissioned officers are not so capable.

Coupled with the advocacy of the guards and soldiers, now they all think that Zhao Xun is really because of the reincarnation of the thunder god and the help of the gods.

As soon as the sky dawned, the army continued to advance, but Zhao Xun knew that the spies of the Nafu army were still around to think about themselves, but would Zhao Xun care?

"Woo woo...... The little tiger Maomao's body tightened slightly, jumped off the horse from Zhao Xun's body, stood on the ground, and stood up against the mountain ridge in front of the right side of the road.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Xun was puzzled, the little tiger usually rode on a horse with him, and only when he stopped to rest, he would jump off the horse, after all, he couldn't catch up with the speed of the war horse.

Following the defense line of the little tiger's gaze, the corners of Zhao Xun's mouth suddenly curled, revealing a sneer.

"Order, archers prepare, the woods on the right side of the front, give me a ride!" Zhao Xun shouted coldly.

"My lord, where is there an ambush?"

"Maybe there is, maybe not, just try it!" Zhao Xun replied with a smile.

Zhao Xun gave an order, and three thousand cavalry suddenly dispatched and rushed towards the mountains and forests thousands of miles away.

"Damn! was discovered, how did he find out. Remove! Zhang Qinyue's face turned pale instantly, and she said in horror.

"Woo Woo ......"

The rain of arrows poured down, and there was no target, just shoot the arrows in the quiver as fast as possible. This is Zhao Xun's military order, come back after shooting. Although the soldiers were puzzled, these soldiers still completed Zhao Xun's military orders very well.

"Ah...... Damn it! They found ......" and "escaped ......"

Suddenly, a terrible scream rang out in the woods.

"What to run away from...... Fight with them! A gruff voice roared.

Suddenly, hundreds of soldiers emerged from the woods, many of whom were still short of arrows, screaming and killing the three thousand soldiers.

It's a pity that these 3,000 soldiers are cavalry, how can a mere infantry pawn be an opponent of cavalry? Even if the other party has bows and arrows, it is not the opponent of these three thousand Warrior Army.

The short but fierce battle ended, and the government army lost seven or eight hundred people, and the Xiaoguo army only lost a few dozen people.

"Lord, how did you know that there were ambushes here? The passage here is very wide, so it's not suitable for ambushes! Wei Dong asked puzzled.

Zhao inquired: "Speaking of which, it's still the credit of this Maomao." Animals are better at spotting anomalies, murderous aura, etc., than people, and if it weren't for it, I wouldn't have found an ambush here. The commander of this army is not simple, he is not to ambush us, but to appear in our rear, whether it is to ambush our grain convoy or to raid from behind, it can play an unexpected role. Most of the army's exploration horses are arranged in the front! ”

Wei Dong was stunned, if the government army raided the grain transportation team, the chance of success was still very high. You know, the army is ahead, and the momentum is far greater than the opponent's, who could have predicted that the enemy army would surprise from behind their own army?

Food was lost, and although the army was not immediately defeated, it could no longer continue the attack. In war, food and grass are one of the important factors that determine victory or defeat. Since ancient times, grain and grass have been destroyed, and I don't know how many have lost wars. The soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, this is the experience summed up by the sages. Only when the food and grass are fully equipped can the army move.

"Wei Dong, let someone clean up the arrows, and shoot me everywhere I go, wherever there is anything suspicious. Compared to these government troops, we have a lot more advantages than them. Zhao Xun said slowly.

More than ten miles away from the east of the Xiaoguo Army, a group of dejected soldiers appeared here, this is the government army that could not be ambushed, but was plotted.

"General, what now? The ambush failed, and the other party was still advancing slowly, so if it went on, it would arrive at the city of Interpretation tomorrow morning, and ...... then," the first lieutenant frowned and said.

Zhang Qinyue looked at the soldiers behind her, gritted her teeth and said, "Tonight's night attack!" ”

"Night raid? Is this okay? Xiaoguo Army is not simple! ”

Zhang Qinyue said: "First disturb and then attack at night, no matter what, we can't wait any longer." Success is best, failure is ...... If you fail, you should have completed the task of Xiangye. ”

"Do you want to recruit the people again?"

"No, we can't let the people get involved anymore, in case this Xiaoguo army is really angry, it's these innocent people who are unlucky." Zhang Qinyue said slowly. In fact, yesterday I used those people to plot against the Xiaoguo Army, and after learning that these Yan Ya Army were the servant army recruited by the Xiaoguo Army, I had already greeted them with a cold face.
