Chapter 500: The River Arr
The grassland cannot survive without the river, where there is a river, there is a water source guarantee, and where there is a river, the grass grows high and tall, which is a lifeline for the nomadic people who graze for a living.
This river flows from the northwest to the southeast, and so on, is this river the third largest river in the Turkic territory, the Ar River? The Arr River is one of the main gathering areas of the Turkic tribes, and there will be a large number of Turkic soldiers here at any time, and once they are targeted, they will have 800 people left, and it is even more difficult to get out than to climb to the sky!
Yang Guang's expression became more and more serious, this is a big river, a big river means a big crisis and danger, he immediately ordered Du Meiyue to get the map, but when he opened the map to check, it shouldn't be the Al River, because the Al River is 200 miles away from the route they traveled, could they be completely lost?
This is not good news, and what is even worse is that if it is really such a big deviation, then Luo Qi, who sent a letter to Yang Su, will not be able to find them even if they come back.
"Hehe, pray that this river is not the Al River, otherwise we will not only not be able to catch up with Luo Shixin and them, but also put ourselves in danger and run to someone's nest." Yang Guang was still in the mood to joke at this time, Du Meiyue frowned and was thinking about it while looking at the map, and then told him very seriously, "If my judgment is correct, this is the Al River, because there is no such big river within a radius of 300 miles, from northwest to southeast!" ”
"Well, in fact, I also think this is the Ahr River, but it's a pity that we are not here to play, otherwise we will ride a horse and walk along the river in the warm sunshine, and go to sleep in the tent of the steppe people to experience the beautiful scenery of the wind and grass and the cattle and sheep. But don't worry too much, I've always been a soldier to cover the water, and even if I'm the only one left, I'm on offense and defense. Yang Guang's expression gradually relaxed, but Du Meiyue's mind couldn't relax with him.
But fortunately, Yang Guang sent a lot of scouts just now, and there will be news back in a while, fortunately, this is winter, and the grassland is barren and can not be grazing, otherwise if it was spring and summer, they would have been discovered and killed by the rebels, and their 800 people still have hundreds of wounded, and they are really too small and inconspicuous to put on this vast prairie!
The tanma came back one after another, and they ran very quickly and awkwardly.
Newspaper, this river is the Ar River, and up in turn are the Sodo tribe, the Monchiha tribe, and the Aland tribe near Arshan, all three of which are famous Turkic tribes, and we caught two tongues that came out to walk horses.
Yang Guang nodded calmly, "Well, I know, you guys have worked hard, hurry up and rest!" The horse breeder walked over with some surprise, and reached out to scratch his head without speaking, "Hehe, it's good that we rushed to someone's nest by ourselves, I suspect that last night that wave of people was the famous Suoduo cavalry of the Suoduo tribe, and this Suoduo cavalry is definitely one of the best in the Turkic steppe, hey, it's really exciting, we actually destroyed the Suoduo cavalry!" ”
Du Meiyue gave him an angry look, "You can stop raising horses, now we have deviated from the original route for at least 200 miles, not only can we not catch up with Luo Shixin, but they are even farther away from them!" ”
The horse breeder reached out and scratched his head again, "Really?" I've thought of this question, but I'm still wondering if the men of these three tribes who can fight are all gathered towards the Turkic tent, and the rest are old, weak, sick and disabled, if so, we will be wrong and go directly down the Arshan River to Arshan and then join Luo Shixin and them, but this is a huge adventure, it depends on how the master chooses! ”
Du Meiyue is angry enough, this horse breeder has always been a stuffy radish but at this time he came up with such a bad idea, even if the main force was sent out, but the characteristics of the Turks are that everyone can ride a horse, regardless of men, women and children, everyone can pick up a knife and kill people, because they have lived in such a cruel environment since they were children. But Yang Guang has a fatal principle, not to kill the elderly, women, children and children!
Wouldn't they just have to stretch their necks and wait for death? If they don't kill people, their families will kill them, and what tribe will have the main force without reservation? This is not a large mobilization of the whole country, even if it is 300,000 people, the number of troops sent by each tribe is enough.
So the idea is just terrible!
But Yang Guang began to drag his chin and think carefully, "This idea is not impossible, no matter where we go now, it is full of dangers, at first in order to march quickly, with the help of the panic of the defeated Turkic soldiers, we divided the troops into thousands of troops, in fact, this strategy is right, at least Luo Shixin, they are moving fast, and they are different from us, first, they will not get lost, second, they have enough care for each other, and when necessary, they will immediately form a strong combat effectiveness." The only sad thing is us, although our thousands of people are strong in combat but they are separated from the large army, which is equal to the lone wolf who is out of the group, if we go back to the original route, what about the pursuers behind? And now the news of the appearance of our thousand-man team, the news that we killed two 3,000 cavalry in a row, I am afraid that it has spread all over the 500-mile radius. Although the horse breeder said that it was very dangerous, I think that at this time, firstly, the main forces of these three tribes were not at home, and secondly, when they heard the news of us and disguised themselves as Turkic Luo Shixin and they were going to war, are the rest of the people here also gathering on fast horses to prepare to besiege us? ”
"Then why don't we take advantage of this new opportunity to run along the north of Arshan all the way around the clock, even if we meet any team, we can directly pass shoulders and say that we have received news that the enemy is on the Arshan line and wants to attack the Turkic tent along Arshan! It's all gambling anyway, and I'm in favor of the proposal to raise horses! If you raise horses, you still take 100 people as a pioneer battalion to rush to the front, and it is best not to be fooled and kill directly! You're an arrow, and you have to be invincible to make sure we have a chance to survive! ”
Du Meiyue didn't speak, but her face was very cold, this was really too risky, although it was also dangerous to return the same way, but to catch up with the large army as soon as possible to get out of danger, what she was thinking about now was not whether the strategy and tactics could work successfully, but how to ensure Yang Guang's safety to the greatest extent.
Yang Guang saw that she was unwilling to solve things with cold orders, "Forget it, let's eat first and rest for a while, at least temporarily we will be safe for a few hours, because the Turks can't imagine that we have fled to the Ar River, hehe"
Du Meiyue accepted this proposal, she wanted to talk to Yang Guang in private, Yang Guang ate very sweetly, he still didn't have any specialization as before, all of them ate and chatted with the Blade Tooth brothers!
And he did not shy away from coming to the Ahr River, "Brothers, who of you would have thought that one day we would cook in a cauldron by the Turkic Arr River and eat hot broad-striped pork?" Haha"
"Talking about you, even I never dreamed of it, my father used to tell me that if one day we can ride on the Turkic and drink the Maar River, then our Great Zhou will be invincible in the world, and now we have accidentally achieved our goal ahead of schedule!"
Everyone was infected by his optimism and confidence, and they were full of combat power, and it seemed that even if they had to fight a decisive battle with 100,000 people for a while, they were sure of victory.
There was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, Yang Guang raised his eyes, and it turned out to be the Luo Qisan brothers who came back with dust, and there were no traces of blood on their bodies, proving that they had a safe journey, didn't they encounter the Turkic pursuers?
