Hua An led more than 100 soldiers and ran four or five miles along the hidden path, and when he looked back, he saw that the enemy's brigade of men and horses was chasing closely behind with torches.

"Big brother, the enemy is really chasing after you, it's less than a thousand steps." Wang San reminded in a low voice.

Hua An nodded and replied softly: "After passing through an open field in front, we will arrive at Qiangu Ridge, and if we enter there, the enemy army will not try to find us." ”

"Big brother, you have such a good memory, you remember so much just by going around Yinling City." Tie Niu suddenly boasted about Hua'an.

Hua An was praised, smiled indifferently, and said: "When the two armies are fighting, pay attention to the time, location, and people, these three things are very important, understand the battlefield terrain in detail, and make good use of it, this is the most basic common sense of being a general." ”

"Yo Yo Yo, as soon as the eldest brother became the brigade commander, he thought about becoming a general, it's a shame, I don't dare to think like this no matter what." Iron Bull humbled.

When Hua An heard this, he held back his eyes at Tie Niu and encouraged: "Brother Tie Niu, as long as you follow the eldest brother, you can sit down with this general." ”

"Big brother, what about me?" Wang San seemed to be a little jealous.

"Wang San, you can't run for the position of general, all of you, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can be a general." Hua'an loudly boosted morale.

"If you are a general, we can also be a general." The passions of all the soldiers were mobilized.

Hua An saw that the morale of the soldiers was high, and hit the railway while it was hot: "Soldiers, rush through the open ground in front of you at full speed and enter Qiangu Ridge is victory." ”

"Oh, rush!" More than a hundred soldiers rushed forward in pursuit of me, and soon crossed an unobstructed open field and entered the Qiangu Ridge, where the terrain was extremely complicated.

"Lord, look, there's a dark shadow in the open field ahead."

When Zhao Junjun heard this, he looked up and saw that in an open field in front of him, there was a black shadow galloping into the distance, and soon disappeared at the end of the open field.

Although the night was very dark, there was still some faint moonlight, which was not enough for the enemy to discover the whereabouts of Hua'an and the others elsewhere, but there was a large bare open area here, and the faint moonlight reflected on it, which looked particularly bright, and Hua'an's team was very conspicuous when walking on it.

"Jin Army, it must be Jin Army, look where you run, soldiers, chase me." The commander of the Zhao army gave the order.

More than 2,000 soldiers of the Zhao Army heard the order and accelerated to chase after them.

The reason why Qiangu Ridge is called Qiangu Ridge is because the terrain here is complex, there are thousands of steep valleys large and small, and the connection between adjacent valleys is also extremely complex, and overgrown weeds and shrubs are the most significant features here.

After Hua'an and more than 100 soldiers under his command entered Qiangu Ridge, in order not to get lost, Hua'an decided to walk in the direction of the North Star, and when they encountered a steep valley blocking the way, they all went to the right.

More than 2,000 enemy soldiers who were in hot pursuit, carrying torches, entered the Qiangu Ridge, looking at the forked terrain and not knowing where to pursue.

"Military master, there are too many forks in the road here, and it is not enough for the Jin army to go." A ministry general said.

Lord Zhao Jun stared at the surrounding environment, thought for a moment, and said loudly: "Scatter and find, a few of you go to the left, a few of you go to the right, and the rest follow me." ”

More than 2,000 Zhao soldiers scattered to look for as soon as they entered Qiangu Ridge, because the war horses always have to be excreted, there will always be horse manure left along the way, following the clues of horse manure, Zhao soldiers probably feel the direction of Qinghua'an's retreat.

Seeing that the enemy's torches were still closely following behind, Hua An was puzzled, to say that the terrain here is extremely complicated, how did the enemy find the direction of his retreat?

"Big brother, the enemy army has actually followed." Iron Bull also has some regrets.

"That's right, the enemy has discovered the whereabouts of our army, and it seems that we will not stop until we are caught!" Wang San said and glanced back.

Hua An looked back at the enemy army behind him who was slowly chasing, frowned, and said suspiciously: "Didn't you follow the horse manure to find it!" ”

"Well, it's possible." Tie Niu and Wang San exclaimed at the same time.

"However, after a lot of noise in the middle of the night, we should also go back to Yinling City." Wang San rubbed his eyes and said.

"That's right, big brother, let's go back to the city first, and then make a fuss tomorrow night." Tie Niu completely agreed with Wang San's construction.

Hua An looked carefully at the surrounding valley and regretted: "If you ambush a group of men and horses here in advance, you will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage on the enemy army behind you, but it's a pity." ”

Wang San and Tie Niu nodded frequently when they heard this.

"Wang San, you immediately lead all the horses back to Yinling City, Tie Niu, you stay with me." Hua'an gave the order.

"Big brother, you must be careful." Wang San reminded him and led more than a hundred soldiers to run in the direction of Yinling City.

Seeing that Hua An was left alone, Tie Niu said curiously: "Big brother, what are the two of us staying here for." ”

"Pick up the horse manure on the ground first, and then play a game of cat and mouse with the enemy." Hua An smiled indifferently.

"What? Leaving my old cow is just to pick up horse manure, why don't you ask Wang San to stay. As soon as Tie Niu heard about picking up horse manure, he immediately made an opinion.

"Do you pick it up or not?" Hua An glared at Iron Bull.

"Pick it up, what's the big deal." Iron Bull said as he picked up the horse manure on the ground.

Hua An, on the other hand, led the two mounts and hid them in a small overgrown valley nearby.

"Big brother, the horse manure in the vicinity has been picked up, and it is all stuffed in the rat hole, and the enemy army will definitely not find it." Tie Niu picked up the nearby horse manure and came to Hua'an's side.

Hua An nodded with satisfaction, looked at the enemy brigade that was getting closer and closer in front of him, and whispered, "Let's go, let's hide first." ”

After speaking, he hid in a small valley two hundred paces away with the iron ox, and looked out through the dense grass.

The enemy soon chased along the horse manure, and when they reached the place where the iron ox picked up the horse manure, they could no longer see the horse manure, and the soldiers pouted their butts and searched carefully on the ground, how did they know that the horse manure had already been stuffed into a nearby mouse hole by the iron ox.

"Commander, the clue is broken, and there is not a single shadow of horse manure within a radius of a hundred steps." A subordinate general rushed to the front of the military commander and reported.

"Have you looked for it all? There is loosening of the soil on the ground. The Zhao army lord frowned and asked, he suspected that the Jin army had buried the horse manure in order to get rid of his pursuit.

"Hui military master, I have carefully searched for it, and there is no trace of loosening of the soil." The general swore to reply.

The military master of Zhao Jun frowned, and said loudly: "If you can't find it within a hundred steps, then expand the search range, and you must find the whereabouts of the Jin army." ”

Although the night of tossing made him feel that even if he found out the whereabouts of the Jin army, he might not be able to catch up, but he was extremely unwilling in his heart, even if there was only one in ten thousand hopes, he had to continue to pursue.

Hearing the order, more than 2,000 soldiers expanded their search in groups of three or five, and soon two or three soldiers approached the location where Hua'an was hiding, because there was a cover of weeds, they did not find Hua'an and Tie Niu who were hiding.

Hua An and Tie Niu held their breath, lowered their bodies, and lay on their stomachs behind the grass.

A soldier took the lead in walking to the grass in front of Hua'an, only one step away from Hua'an, and as long as he took one more step forward, he could step on Hua'an's head.

But the soldier stopped in time, then unbuckled his belt and tried to relieve himself in the grass.

Hua An and Tie Niu glanced at each other, and the two of them reached out together, quickly grabbed the soldier's two legs, and dragged the soldier who was about to relieve him.

"Ah......h

With a short exclamation, the soldier had been strangled to death, and in order to create an atmosphere of terror, Huaan left bloody paw prints on his face.

The soldier's shrill exclamation naturally attracted the attention of the other soldiers around him, and the two soldiers closest to him quickly walked over when they heard the sound, looked at the small black valley under their feet, and were about to go down to find out.

Suddenly, Hua An and Tie Niu each grabbed one of them and dragged the two soldiers down, strangled them to death and then left bloody paw prints, just like before.

Killing three enemy soldiers in a row caused a lot of movement, and the small valley where they were hiding was definitely not able to stay, Hua An and Tie Niu, together with Tie Niu, first threw the corpses of the three soldiers to a conspicuous place above, and then hid in the night to another small valley a hundred steps away, and continued to steal and kill the enemy soldiers.

In half an hour's work, more than a dozen lone enemy soldiers were hunted by Hua'an and Tie Niu, and the soldiers who were hunted were all left with terrifying bloody handprints by Hua'an without exception.

Such a terrifying and strange thing made all the enemy soldiers feel terrified, and no one dared to be left alone anymore, and Hua'an and Tie Niu also lost the opportunity to secretly hunt the enemy army.

When a corpse with bloody handprints was carried together, the military master of Zhao Jun, who was already angry, suddenly became even more resentful.

He vaguely felt that the Jin army must have been hiding and secretly hunted his subordinates, but the sky was very dark, the terrain was so complicated, and the Jin army was always hiding in the dark.

"Commander, we can't let the soldiers die in vain, let's go back to the camp!" A lieutenant persuaded.

"No, in another hour, the sky should be bright, and I want to see how long these Jin troops can hide." Zhao Junjun said fiercely.

Since the commander of the Zhao army said so, he naturally had to obey as a subordinate, but because of the terrifying aura of the bloody handprints, all the soldiers did not dare to search alone, but at least ten people as a team to launch a search for the Jin army.

Seeing that the soldiers of the Zhao army were all gathered together in fright, Hua An and Tie Niu felt extremely happy, but they also had no chance to secretly hunt the enemy soldiers, after all, it was a matter of incompetence for two people to secretly hunt ten soldiers.

"Big brother, the enemy army has learned to be well-behaved, and they are all gathered together, it's not easy to start!" Tie Niu rubbed his palms and said softly.

Hua An smiled faintly and replied softly: "It's almost, it will be dawn in another hour, and we should go back." ”

"I'm going back." Iron Bull is on the rise, and some don't want to leave.

Hua An patted Tie Niu's shoulder and said softly, "Go back first, and come back tomorrow to clean them up." ”

"Hmm." Tie Niu answered, and secretly retreated to the valley of the Tibetan horse with Hua An, and then stepped on the war horse and galloped towards Yinling City.
