The night was dark, the chill hit people, and the roaring bonfires could not withstand the bitter cold of the mountains. Except for the soldiers in charge of the guard, most of the rogues had fallen asleep next to the fire, and the silent valley was only the occasional dream of the soldiers except for the crackling of the burning firewood.

Ma Yue sat under an ancient tree, his bright and deep black eyes looking up at the stars, and he didn't feel sleepy.

Last night's battle between Lu Yang and Yuan Yin's cavalry army can be described as hasty, and the tenacity and tenacity of the Han army are beyond Ma Yue's imagination. Even in the face of a sudden attack, the Han army was still able to stabilize the defensive line in the face of danger, and then quickly launched a counterattack, almost destroying the 500 rogues that Ma Yue had taken out of the city.

Fortunately, Ma Yue was prepared, and each of them carried a few small packets of lime powder, which exerted unimaginable power at a critical moment, and finally helped the eight hundred Liukou win this tough battle of great significance! And at a very small cost.

The battle of Luyang is of great significance! Not only did he obtain more than 1,000 military horses out of thin air, so that the 800 Liukou would become a pure cavalry army from now on, of course, Ma Yue would not be naïve enough to think that as long as there were war horses, the 800 Liukou would immediately become an elite cavalry. It's not that simple, it's not easy to train a qualified cavalryman, and the current 800 Liukou are at most just a group of infantry on horseback.

But even so, these war horses are still of great significance to the Eight Hundred Liukou, at least, the speed of the Eight Hundred Liukou will be greatly accelerated, and the Han army will be even more defenseless.

However, what is more important than getting a large number of military horses is that after this battle, the 800 Liukou completely crossed the hurdle of the Han army, and such an elite cavalry army was defeated under the hands of the 800 Liukou. Now, the Eight Hundred Liukou are fully worthy of the title of "Tiger and Wolf Division".

When you have a territory in the future, you will train this tiger and wolf army strictly, and it will be an iron-blooded army that cannot be dragged down, defeated, and never give up!

So far, the Wolf Project has been a complete success! This group of farmers who used to only know how to carry hoes and plow the land has finally undergone a qualitative change, and now they have completely transformed from sheep to wolves who eat sheep.

Now, no force can stop them from surviving in this troubled world, and from today onwards, the goal of the Eight Hundred Liukou will no longer be simply to survive, but to live better! It seems that it is time to find a piece of land, but where is the territory belonging to the Eight Hundred Rogues?

It is absolutely impossible to gain a foothold in the Central Plains.

Movement, 800 Liukou can kill the Han army to the ground, but if they fall into the position and fight hard with the Han army, these 800 people are not enough for the Han army to stuff their teeth, Ma Yue will never be arrogant enough to occupy the Xiongcheng Dayi with only more than 800 people, and cut the Xiong in the heart of the Han Empire, which is purely looking for death.

In addition to the Central Plains, where should the eight hundred liukou go?

Suddenly there was a twitch outside the valley, startling several pairs of jackdaws, flapping their wings and flying to the empty mountains in the distance. Ma Yue suddenly looked up, only to see Guan Hai's tower-like figure walking quickly, followed by Pei Yuanshao, who was full of wind and frost.

……

In Pheasant County, the atmosphere in the meeting hall was dull, almost all the strategists and generals under Yuan Shu's command were present, and even Huang Zhong and Wei He were urgently summoned to participate in the discussion, and everyone frowned and had solemn expressions. As soon as Tanma returned, the eight hundred Liukou had bypassed Wancheng and flowed all the way south to the Jingshan area, and had already joined forces with the suspected Liukou soldiers trapped in Jingshan.

"It's a tricky thing!" Kuai Yue thought for a long time and sighed, "Eight hundred Liuliu Kou are brave and brave, coming and going like the wind, and now with the help of the war horse, it is like a tiger with wings, and it is impossible to prevent it!" ”

Jin Shang rarely agreed: "Yes, if there are fewer troops sent to the faction, I am afraid that something will happen, if there are more troops sent by the faction, the grain and grass required will be huge, and the march will be slow, how can we catch up with the footsteps of the eight hundred liukou?" It's difficult. ”

Li Yan said: "What's even more difficult is that the eight hundred rogues are not similar to the ancient thieves at all, neither defending the city, but also not occupying the mountains as kings, riding and plundering, coming and going like the wind, it is completely difficult to guess the direction and purpose of its next march, so that our army can not judge its intentions, and there is no way to make corresponding arrangements, alas~~"

Sun Jian, whose injuries had just improved, snorted, gritted his teeth and said, "In this way, isn't our army just waiting to be killed?" ”

Sun Jian's expression was hideous, and a linen bandage was wrapped diagonally around his head, completely covering his left eye, but the right eye that was exposed was still shining brightly, revealing murderous intentions. In the previous battle of Pheasant County, Sun Jian almost died under Ma Yue's knife, but fortunately, his subordinates killed Huang Gai in time, and shot back Ma Yue with an arrow.

"That's not true, although our army is passive, it still has an absolute advantage. Although the attack of the 800 rogues is a headache, if it can pose a threat to our army, it is inevitable to look up to them. Kuai Yue thought about it and said to Yuan Shu, "General, the more upper, middle and lower strategies you have, you can choose from." ”

Yuan Shu said: "Let's try to say it." ”

Kuai Yue said: "The next strategy is to lure and annihilate it, the middle strategy is to gather heavy troops to drive it, and the upper strategy is to use deep ditches and high bases. ”

Yuan Shu frowned and said: "The deep ditch and high fortress and the strong wall can certainly make the rogue retreat, but it is long-lasting, I am afraid that the court will not tolerate it, the Son of Heaven will blame it, and it is too risky to lure and annihilate it, Ma Yue is cunning like a fox may not be deceived, if it is not properly designed, I am afraid that it will be taken advantage of by the enemy, I intend to gather heavy troops to expel it, I don't know what you think?" ”

Kuai Yue's middle strategy can be said to coincide with Yuan Shu's original intention, 800 rogues raged in the front, poisoned, and happy, he pursued and suppressed in the back, taking advantage of the situation to receive the territory, and installed cronies, it can be said that each takes what he needs, as for the hardship of the people, the people of Li are dead, and what does he have to do with Yuan Shu?

Kuai Yue said: "If you want to gather heavy troops to drive it, you must first do two things." ”

Yuan Shu said: "What's the matter? ”

Kuai Yue said: "First, in the pass, to chong, dangerous mountains, riverside wilderness and other places for the building blocks for the platform, more white grass, once the whereabouts of the Liukou is found, you can raise the fire as a signal, one to the nearby counties, townships to warn, the other can lead the army from all walks of life to chase it. Second, after the army left the city, the garrison of each county was empty, so it was necessary to recruit more volunteers and soldiers first, and train diligently, although it was not enough to go into battle to kill the enemy, but it could be used to defend the city. ”

Yuan Shu said: "Good! Yuan Xiu could arrange for manpower to build the beacon tower as soon as possible, and as for the recruitment of volunteers and training, he could order all counties to do so immediately. ”

Kuai Yue said: "The army should not be gathered in one place, nor should it be too scattered, and it is appropriate for each army to be a thousand people, not to break the enemy, but to protect itself, and the armies of all roads should not be too far away from each other, so as not to escape for the eight hundred Liukou." The armies of all walks of life can be centered on the rogues, spread out in a fan shape and move forward slowly, and communicate with each other, support each other, hear the thieves' traces and advance, see the beacon fire and help, and when the thieves attack, they will stick to it, and the rogue will run away tiredly, and will not rest in the end, and soon avoid him naturally. ”

Li Yan was not willing to be lonely, and added: "It is also necessary to tell the counties, unless the general is personally present, no army is allowed to enter the city without authorization, only allowed to be stationed outside the city, so as not to give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it." ”

"Good!" Yuan Shu started the case and said to Li Yan, "Li Yan listens to the order." ”

Li Yan took a step forward, held his head high, and said, "Yes." ”

"Immediately hurry up and tell the counties, unless the general is in person, no army is allowed to enter the city without authorization, and each city can take strict precautions to prevent all suspicious people from entering the city."

"Yes!"

"Sun Jian listens to the order."

"The end will be."

"Lead a thousand soldiers and horses, out of the east of the Tunjing Mountain, the thieves will retreat, and the beacon will advance, and there must be no mistakes."

"Yes!"

"Zhang Xun listens to orders."

"The end will be."

"Lead a thousand troops, go out of the west of Tunjing Mountain, keep a distance from Sun Jian's department, and there must be no mistake."

"Yes!"

"Yuan Yin listens to orders."

"The end will be."

"The same army led a thousand, out of the north of Tunjing Mountain, and kept a distance from Sun Jian and Zhang Xun's department, you should remember that you should atone for your crimes, but if there is a mistake, the two crimes will be punished together, and you will not be spared."

"Yes!"

"Huang Zhong, Wei He."

"The end will be."

"Each leader has 1,000 Nanyang soldiers, and there must be no mistake in going out to the south of Tunjing Mountain."

"Yes."

"Ji Ling and Li Yan listened to the tune in front of the tent, the general will unify the Chinese army of 2,000 and respond in the center, and the armies from all walks of life will respond at any time, support each other, and never take the enemy lightly, and those who violate the order ~~~ will be killed!"
