Chapter 148: The Turmoil of the He Clan (30)

In the distance, the sound of broken horses' hooves, the sound of iron hooves, broke the silence on the grassland. Soldiers with a little combat experience with the Liao army can guess that this is the sound of horses' hooves from the march of the Liao army. At present, in Liaodong, there is no large-scale organized cavalry in the Great Zhao Empire, and the sound of huge horse hooves can only be the sound of the Liao army's iron cavalry.

Of course, this does not rule out a possibility, it may also be the Menggu cavalry, and the Menggu tribal army is also composed of cavalry. However, the fall of Meng Gu has already made the Great Zhao Empire break its courage, where do they dare to invade south.

Wu Tingzhen gathered all the scouts that had been scattered. The scouts confirmed that the Liao army had arrived.

The march of 50,000 people was vast and majestic, covering the mountains and fields, and it was actually terrifying at first sight.

"It's been a long time since I've seen such a large-scale Liao army." Wu Tingzhen looked at the Liao army all over the mountains and said with a sigh, once upon a time, he thought that the Wu clan was in decline, and he had to take a back seat, and he would never have the opportunity to command a large-scale battle in his life.

God still favored him and gave him this time to make up for the regrets of the rest of his life.

"It's a pity that it's not a purebred Liao dog. Mixed with 20,000 Yu Yansong's 20,000 miscellaneous pieces, it is better to kill all Liao dogs. Wu Zhenfei's tone was full of fly in the ointment.

"Fifty thousand Liao dogs depend on what we eat?" Wu Zhenwu is still more rational and maintains an objective and rational mind for the strength judgment of both sides.

Pulling 20,000 soldiers and 50,000 purebred Liao troops in the field, how much courage does it take.

"Don't play tricks, I finally won the opportunity to fight a big battle, pass on the word, everyone fights for Lao Tzu, whether this battle is good or not is related to how our Wu clan will live in the future." Wu Tingzhen stopped the two of them, and said in a fierce voice, "If you don't want to gnaw on tree bark and eat grass roots, you will give Lao Tzu his life to fight." ”

The place name Gaizhou seems sparse and ordinary to ordinary people, and if it were not for the southern expedition in the thirteenth year of Zhenyuan, Wanyan Fushen may never have intersected with this small city. After experiencing the failed southern expedition in the thirteenth year of Zhenyuan, the place name of Gaizhou was pressed like a stone on Wanyan Fushen's heart and was difficult to erase.

The place name Gaizhou seems to have taken root in the memory of Wanyan Fushen, and it will never be erased in this life. The things that can make people remember are always those things that make people feel painful, and the pain stimulates you to constantly think of the past that you have hurt, and under the stimulation of pain, it is difficult for you to forget.

There is a stone monument on the official road, the stone monument is intact, and the two big characters inscribed on the stone monument tell passers-by where they are - Gaizhou.

Passing by the stele, Wan Yan Fushen still couldn't help but look at the stele twice, and the big word Gaizhou on the stele was particularly dazzling, stimulating Wan Yan Fushen's nerves. Gaizhou, the place where Yan Fushen used to be painful, can this time become a place of shame for him?

The terrain on both sides of this section of the official road is on the high side, and the wild grass grows wildly, making it an excellent place for ambush.

Wanyan Fushen's sharp eyes like falcons swept over both sides of the official road, and after raising his hand to signal, the marching team behind him stopped. The sound of the hooves of the Liao army came to an abrupt end.

"Lord, why did you stop?" Yu Yansong threw his horsewhip and galloped to Wan Yan Fushen's side, feeling puzzled by Wan Yan Fushen's move.

Wanyan's cautious attention still stayed on both sides of the official road, which was flanked by a gentle slope that was neither high nor steep. Although it is a gentle slope, if an ambush is set up on this gentle slope, it can also deal a major blow to them with a condescending advantage.

Wan Yan raised his horsewhip and pointed to the two gentle slopes that were quiet in front of him: "The gentle slope in front is very suitable for setting up ambushes, if I were He Tengxiao, I would definitely set up ambushes in this section of the road to block the southward movement of the Great Liao Army, He Tengxiao is such a shrewd person, it is impossible to ignore this section of the road." ”

Hearing this, Yu Yansong observed the gentle slope in front of them, the gentle slope was covered with withered grass, and the autumn wind blew, like a wave of yellow wheat, but it was a pity that it was all a piece of dead grass, not wheat.

"In the hinterland of eastern Liaoning, such terrain is indeed rare, and it is a good place for ambushes." Yu Yansong has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is not a person with wine bags and rice bags, so he still has this vision. The terrain is low in the middle and high on both sides, making it a good place for ambushes.

The hinterland of Liaodong is a fertile plain formed by the erosion of the Liao River, the terrain is mainly plains, and slightly higher mountain bags are rare, not to mention this kind of low in the middle and high terrain on both sides, not to mention that this kind of terrain is still distributed on the main official roads, and you can't help but pay more attention to it.

"Lord Wang, my subordinates will send someone to investigate." Yu Yansong volunteered to ask for his life.

"Forget it." Wan Yan waved his hand cautiously and said, "There has been a lot of delay along the way, most of the soldiers of the Yu clan are soldiers, how can there be cavalry coming quickly, or this king will send a cavalry to test." ”

Wan Yan Fushen glanced at a soldier who looked like a leader, and the head of the record understood, took his soldier who was recorded, and walked out with a bow and gallop.

This move of the Liao army frightened the Wu soldiers who were ambushed on the gentle slopes on both sides of the official road.

"The head of the family, shouldn't Liao Gouzi find out about us?" Wu Zhenfei asked uneasily. If it is discovered by the Liao army, the wishful thinking of ambushing the Liao army will fail, and you can only fight a tough battle with the Liao army. In a tough confrontation with the Liao army, how many chances can the Wu private soldiers have?

There was no need for Wu Zhenfei to remind him, Wu Tingzhen had already noticed the movement of the Liao army, Wu Tingzhen frowned, and watched more than a hundred Liao army iron horsemen rush out. "The Liao army didn't find us, the Liao army just suspected that there were ambushes here." ”

"The Liao army suspects that we are setting up an ambush here?" Wu Zhenfei exclaimed, "Then aren't we exposed?" ”

"Just suspicion, no exposure." Wu Zhenwu was very disdainful of his cousin's performance, "If we find out that we are ambushing here, the Liao army will not behave like this, and will only send a record of cavalry?" This cavalry is here to test us. ”

Wu Tingzhen nodded, and had to admit that his eldest brother's son was much stronger than his son, which made him feel why this is not my son.

"Wu'er's analysis is good, the Liao army just suspects that we are setting up an ambush here, and this record of men and horses was sent by the Liao army to test us. This place is so big, a record of the Liao army can't be explored for a while. Wu Tingzhen said, "As long as we hide well and are not discovered, the Liao army will still take this road, and there will be ambushes and battles, tell the brothers to hide well, no matter what happens, don't show your head." ”

After the order was passed down, the soldiers of the Wu tribe buried their bodies in the grass and buried them deeper, eager to burrow into the ground.

At this time, the Liao army of Yilu also walked to the middle of the official road, looking around to observe the gentle slopes on both sides of the official road. (To be continued.) )
