Time was pressing, and the Zhou Dynasty could only abandon those old and weak to escape, even if those old men might be better than these young men in forging skills, but the speed and immediate combat power he needed now, that is to say, he could completely reorganize the more than 2,000 craftsmen he had taken away into an army for resistance against the official army;

After many divisions of troops, the original establishment of the Black Turban Army of 3,000 people has also been reduced a lot, only about 22,300 people, judging from the strength of the troops and the strength of the opponent, Li Kai decided to follow it and not directly launch an attack;

This trip to Jiangxia County is about 150 miles, the distance is long, and the soldiers and horses of the Zhou Dynasty headquarters are almost all foot soldiers, and they also carry a lot of weapons, the speed will not be very fast, and it will take four or five days to reach Jiangxia County on a day and night march;

The Black Turban Army is all cavalry, and it is very strong in terms of mobility and pursuit ability, based on various powerful reasons, Li believes that this is a good opportunity to implement tail line tactics, he can continue to harass the Zhou Dynasty until he collapses, and then give a fatal blow!

So, there was such a scene, the Black Turban Army was attached to the back of the Zhou Dynasty, not far and endless, only one or two miles away, shouting loudly, the people in front of them would also hear it, the Black Turban Army was originally a very low-quality army, after getting Li Kai's orders, they began to shout and scold;

Up to the eighteen generations of some people's ancestors, to the wives and children of some people, to the eighteen generations of some people... The things that can be scolded have all been used by these people, foul language, crow-like noise, and the people in the front troops have been angry to the extreme;

How could a young man with strong blood and strength allow such a person to provoke? The Zhou Dynasty repeatedly appeased them, but the effect really did not improve, if they were forcibly oppressed, they would transfer their anger against the officials and soldiers to themselves;

If you blindly let it go, sooner or later these people will copy the guy and fight with the people behind them, so they will fall into the trap of the enemy, the Zhou Dynasty is in a dilemma, and the unresponsive surname also makes him not respond in time;

Finally, someone couldn't help it, with a red face and a thick neck, like an angry bull, screaming: "It's too much to deceive people!" These pickled scoundrels! Who's going to teach them a lesson? ”

If they could have scolded the Black Turban Army and would not have to use knives, they would have fought back, but how could these honest people be the opponents of the Black Turban Army? You must know that the Black Turban Army turned out to be robbers who occupied the mountain, and many of them were little hooligans and gangsters.

Many people turned around and ran backwards with knives in hand, ready to teach these bastards a lesson, although the number was not large, but there were not many people, and there were five or six hundred people who responded to the call and rushed to kill together;

The Black Turban Army is not flustered, this is the consequence that can be expected, and it is also the result that they have been expecting, the tail line tactics look simple, but there are many small tricks that have to be determined by time and person, that is to say, it is very important to be flexible at will in this tactic, for different people, different situations need to make different adjustments, people who are not flexible enough to play;

"Crossbowmen! Prepare ——! Qiao Rui saw the enemy army in front of him rushing over, and it was only a scattered, only a momentary bloody enemy, and the number of enemy troops was not large, stretched out his arms, stopped continuing to march, and the crossbowmen took bows and twisted arrows and quietly waited for the arrival of the enemy;

"Putting ——!" Within a range of almost a hundred paces, Qiao Rui waved his arm, and thousands of feather arrows drew a parabola, shooting in the enemy's chaotic formation, and suddenly a scream sounded;

This is, they just woke up, the pursuers were all officers and soldiers, elite troops, armed to the teeth of the strong existence, for a while blood courage could not solve the problem, after the blood courage they were afraid again, turned around and ran again, this time to run back;

"Shoot them, dead rabbits!" , with a whistle, Qiao Rui galloped forward, the big yellow bow in his hand continued to shoot feather arrows, one enemy after another fell to the ground, and the black turban army almost swarmed up, really regarded this place as a hunting ground;

After chasing for a distance, seeing the enemy in front of him put on a formation, in response to these headless and brainless people who rushed out, Qiao Rui stopped his advance, and waited quietly like that, staring at the other party, and this static action was even more frightening;

Zhou Chao felt like he was facing a fierce tiger, and it was a fierce tiger following him, the tiger may not be terrible, but the terrible thing is that these tigers do not have that kind of lofty mentality, but more of a wolf-like cunning;

Wait patiently for the opportunity, if you don't get a bite, you will be bitten hard! That's the most frightening thing! With frowning brows, the Zhou Dynasty decided to test the Black Turban Army, but this temptation was in vain;

As they marched, the Black Turbans retreated slowly and rhythmically, always keeping them at a distance, and when they turned around to prepare for the march, the Black Turbans continued to follow them; What comes again is the next round of provocations that change the law;

With a bloody lesson, the troops of the Zhou Dynasty could only grit their back molars, pretend to ignore them, and march with their heads down, but people's patience is limited, especially the hooligans and villains of the Black Turban Army always greet their immediate families... The second time, he was also taught a lesson, this time Zhou Chaojun was much more honest and did not shoot easily;

During the day, the Black Turban Army was constantly provocative, and at night, the Zhou Dynasty army set up camp, set up protection, and did not give them the opportunity to raid, according to Li Kai's instructions, they would not go to the raid, but would only shout and disturb, and more than once or twice, which made them annoying;

In just one day, Zhou Chao felt more like a year, scolding the officials and soldiers for being shameless, maybe he didn't have any good scolding terms, and it was just despicable, indecent, and shameless over and over again... After scolding for a long time, the old man finally stopped a little and began to think about countermeasures;

The foot escort has been carried all the way to Jiangxia County, and there are a large number of cavalry who have been eyeing it, thinking about it, you also know that it is very difficult, and the Zhou Dynasty can only hope for the response of the waterway! In the streams, they have a response team!

There is still a day or so away from the Xishui River, but whether this journey can be spent safely is still a question, Zhou Chao sighed for a long time, and secretly cursed;

Li on the other side also saw the action intention of the Zhou Dynasty in front, because although the Zhou Dynasty was oppressed by them, it was always able to ensure that there was no chaos, which is worth thinking about, he has such a big advantage, the longer the time is pulled, the strength to defeat him can be the smallest!

The direction of the enemy's march in front is to the southwest, and there is a river in the southwest called Xishui River, which is one of the tributaries of the Yangtze River, and the way to get rid of the cavalry is nothing more than to take the waterway! This is the conclusion that Li Kai has reached, almost exactly as the Zhou Dynasty imagined;

"It's time for a change of tactics! Don't just follow, show them the way! Li Kai squinted his eyes around the bonfire and muttered to himself!
