"It was about half a month ago." Arlington replied in the affirmative after a moment's thought.

"Half a month?!" Kutuzov's thick eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he stretched out, and did not ask this question again.

"Dashuai, what else do you have to arrange?" When Dayan had finished arranging tomorrow's deployment, he consulted Kutuzov, who was lost in thought.

"There's nothing left, the plan has been decided, you guys go down and arrange it immediately, and you must not make a half-point difference."

Kutuzov cheered up his subordinates with a smile on his face, no matter what he thought, at this time, he must also cheer up his subordinates and make them confident in the future.

"Yes!" The generals dispersed in twos and threes, but the thoughtful Dayan stayed.

"Dashuai, what do you seem to have on your mind today?"

Brewing a cup of steaming coffee for Kutuzov, and unceremoniously brewing himself a cup of fine green needles, he had long coveted the precious green tea in the big handsome's tent, and he had been obsessed with it since he had tasted it once before, and now he could seize the opportunity to rub the oil again.

"Boy, you're so willing." Seeing that Dayan was generous to others, Kutuzov scolded with a smile, but the worry between his eyebrows never disappeared.

Seeing that Kutuzov didn't answer him directly, Dayan said to himself: "I guess the handsome seems to have something on his mind for that Qin Dusk, right?" ”

"Boy, I can't hide it from you, but I'm not entirely worried about him." Kutuzov said lightly, not surprised that Dayan guessed what was on his mind.

"So, at least part of the handsome's worries are on him?"

"Let's just put it that way." Kutuzov was still noncommittal.

"But Sir, I really don't see anything to worry about. As far as I know, although Qin Duan is an ambitious guy, his strength is limited. In addition, his surroundings are not peaceful, and it is said that he has not been very happy with the Huns and the Five Kingdoms of the Western Regions recently, so it stands to reason that he should not intervene at this time. ”

"Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if he has the ability to intervene, with his character, he just wants to share a spoonful in the pot of porridge in Loulan. At most, let's count him again, if so, it can also reduce the pressure on our frontal battlefield, anyway, Loulan's pot of porridge is not less. A grim smile appeared on Dayan's childlike face.

Nodding slightly, Kutuzov could see that he admired Dayan very much, "There is some truth in what you said, but you must not underestimate Qin Dui, what this guy is best at is playing cards that don't follow common sense, alas, maybe I'm worrying about it." ”

In the end, Kutuzov did not voice his suspicions. He always thought that Qin Dui was not so simple, but he didn't want to bother himself without any basis, but this doubt was always firmly stuck in his heart like a needle.

Seeing that Kutuzov agreed with his opinion, Dayan did not look proud, he took a sip of tea, let the fragrance of the tea slowly taste in his mouth, and after a long time, he asked again: "What else does the big marshal have to worry about besides Qin Dui?" ”

"Hmm. It's Brundtland. I reckon he's noticed the anomaly by now, so he's going to send more troops south from Manlon. "Talking about it. Kutuzov was obviously much more relaxed, and he didn't want to hide it in front of his henchmen.

"But what can a mere fifteen thousand people do?" Dayan raised an eyebrow.

"My guess is that it's not just these fifteen thousand people, if my judgment is correct, the armies of Jiaxi City and Sanbao City have been adjusted, but our intelligence department has not yet grasped it."

"That's the time it gets. We can't hold back in any way, that will only dampen the spirit of our army in vain, and in the west, the people of Loulan may not think that there will be problems there. Dayan's words became sonorous.

"Yes, not to mention that the people of Loulan know our plan at this time. The Maputra River is so long that they can't judge where we will cross it in a short time, and once they cross the Maputra River, the initiative of the battle will be in our hands, which is also the decisive factor in our victory. ”

Kutuzov slowly walked to the door of the tent, looked at the northern sky, and his tone became firm, "Victory will definitely belong to Pasha!" ”

In the early morning of September, the weather had become a little cooler, and the sky was not yet fully bright, but somewhere on the south bank of the Maputra River was already crowded, wooden boats, rafts, and bamboo rafts of different sizes were constantly swimming out of the forks, small ditches, and culverts along the river, although they were very chaotic, but they seemed quite quiet, and the soldiers were wearing armor and carrying guns, and the scattered stragglers quickly assembled into a long line, and began to board the rafts moored on the shore in turn.

The Maputra River is nearly half wider than normal after the rainy season, and the reeds on both sides of the river are the best place for natural hidden boats, and the reeds make a wave-like sound as far as the breeze passes.

With the commander's order, the tools for crossing the river, which had been prepared for a long time, rushed out of the darkness one after another, and saw the sunlight from the past.

Seeing that the sky was about to appear white, the sweaty commander saw that the first wave of troops crossing the river was ready, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, the darkness that will be released on this day is the most lax moment for the enemy, his troops must be assembled and prepared in a short time, and then cross the wide Maputra River at the specified time, and also form a battle formation in a very short time to protect the follow-up of the follow-up troops, and finally successfully complete the task of crossing the river.

Although there are spies on the other side of the river to reconnoiter information at any time, judging from the information currently in possession, most of the enemy's men and horses have not yet realized that this will be the beginning of the Great War of the Four Kingdoms, but the battlefield is unpredictable, and no one dares to guarantee that the enemy will not appear on the other side of the river at the next moment, and if that is the case, it will undoubtedly be a catastrophe for their own side.

With the waving of the big flag, the wide river suddenly burst into waves, and countless boats and rafts of all sizes slowly moved towards the opposite bank under the powerful rowing of the oarsmen, but such a huge action did not make any other sound, only the sound of the wooden oars hitting the water.

The figure of Tak Creek was like a statue, standing motionless on the bank, his eyes firmly fixed on the river bank in front of him, and his face was expressionless, but a closer look revealed that his face was very stiff, and his forehead showed traces of sweat, obviously due to nervousness.

After all, this is a life-and-death smuggling, once discovered by the enemy, it is completely possible to take advantage of the situation in front of which one's own side has no ability to attack to wipe out his troops on the river, of course, the premise is that the enemy must be prepared in advance and must have a considerable number of blocking forces, but from the current point of view, this game on his side is considered a success.
