Qin Dong and his soldiers hid in the dense forest on the hill and waited quietly for Odoase's arrival, he could see the situation on the edge of the lake on the hill, although he could not see clearly because of the light, but he could vaguely judge that Odoasse and his vanguard had stopped advancing, and then saw a pair of cavalry scattered and galloped towards the hill.

Qin Dong instantly judged that Odoaser might have discovered something abnormal, or he was too suspicious and sent a reconnaissance cavalry to investigate for the sake of safety.

Seeing that the pair of cavalry scattered and ran over, Qin Dong immediately issued an order not to make a sound even if the sky fell apart, otherwise the military law would deal with it, and the order would be conveyed quickly, and the group of cavalry sent by Odoaser also ran to the bottom of the hill.

The cavalry were jogging down the hill until a shout was heard, and a dozen of the horsemen took their bows and arrows and shot them together into the dense forest.

"Whoosh ......." several waves of arrows shot into the dense forest.

The team leader who led the team found that there was no movement in the dense forest after shooting a few times, so he waved his hand and shouted for the others to leave, and Qin Dong and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

He is not worried about being discovered, but he is worried that Ramado has not blocked the retreat of the main Germanic army, so he must try to gain time, according to the current situation, he can completely eliminate the three hundred vanguard cavalry led by Odoase, but in this way, the results of the battle are too small, if he only destroys such a small number of men and horses, and does not need to mobilize the people, his goal is all the 1,000 cavalry, only by beating these Germans and beating them so that they dare not fight his idea again, he will have time to stabilize and develop with peace of mind, After these Germanic people were frightened, the Germanic people in the south did not dare to go north, but could only turn south to plunder the Eastern Roman Empire.

Soon, someone reported that several waves of arrows from the Germanic reconnaissance team just now had caused more than a dozen people to be injured, and three people were killed by arrows, Qin Dong could only grit his teeth and endure it, before the war started, almost twenty people lost their combat effectiveness.

On the edge of the lake, the captain of the team sent to reconnoiter came to report to Odoase: "Captain, no anomalies have been found!" ”

Odoaser nodded, turned back and asked the adjutant to continue to send someone to inform the main force behind him that they could continue to advance, and he himself immediately headed north with the vanguard of three hundred men.

But after advancing a certain distance, he soon realized that something was wrong, after such a long time, why hadn't the scout cavalry in front of him sent someone back to report the investigation?

"Stop, stop moving!" Odoaser shouted, and the whole force suddenly stopped again.

His vice-captain couldn't help but wonder, and stepped forward and asked, "Captain, why do you want to stop again?" ”

"Didn't you notice something was wrong? It's been so long, and the scout team hasn't even sent someone back to report the investigation ahead! When Odoaser said this, he felt a strong uneasiness in his heart, although he did not participate in many battles as a warrior, he had a very keen intuition that there must be some kind of danger around him.

The surrounding centurions thought about it and felt that the time for the scout cavalry to report the situation was indeed a little too long, and they all began to be a little nervous, you must know that the terrain here is very unfavorable for them, as long as people who know a little about military affairs know that they can't stay here for a long time, the left is a narrow hill, and the right is a lake, if the front and back are blocked, it can only be a dead end.

The position of centurion was previously only available to the Roman Empire and the Huns, but later the Germanic barbarians also began to learn the military system of the Roman Empire and the Huns, and began to imitate and improve various defects until they were suitable for their own use (which will not be introduced here).

Odoaser immediately sent another group of cavalry to the front to reconnoiter the situation, and at the same time sent a team of men to guard under the hill on the left, which was really very careful.

However, at this time, the main force in the rear could continue to advance because of the news from the front, so the three leaders immediately regrouped their troops and continued on the road, and soon caught up with the vanguard of Odoase.

Hearing the noise and the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Odoase looked back, and suddenly slapped his head, secretly scolding himself for forgetting to inform the main force not to stop advancing for the time being, now it's okay, if there is an enemy ambush, everyone here is doom! He told his adjutant to keep an eye on the vanguard troops, and he rode quickly towards the main force.

"What's going on? Didn't you send someone to inform us that we could move on, Odoase? Why did your vanguard stop again? Are you deliberately playing tricks on us? Hall was disgruntled when he saw Odoa Sezema galloping over.

Hale was the leader of the first of three Germanic tribes, and his tribe was numbered about 12,000 men behind the mountains of the western part of the Rila Mountains, with 1,500 men under his command, and 700 cavalry, which he brought with him 300 cavalry.

"Don't get angry just yet, listen to what happened!" The leader of the other tribe, Mondi, relieved the siege, this time is not the time for contradictions, since they have sent troops together, they must get rid of the old stereotypes and strive for victory, so that everyone has the spoils to share, if they suffer a crushing defeat because of the contradictions between everyone, not only can they not get the spoils, but there will be great losses, but Mundy understands the reason, he actually admires Odoasai very much, and has been digging Odoyase, but Odoasai is a person in the Manlaric tribe.

And the tribe of Mondi was the largest of the three tribes, with fifteen thousand men, about two thousand soldiers to fight, of whom the cavalry had more than 1,200 horsemen, and he was the strongest, and therefore the most effective in speaking.

After saluting Manlarik, and then to Hall and Mundy, Odoaser said: "My lord, two chiefs, the scout cavalry I sent out has not returned for half an hour to report the reconnaissance, and the villain is very worried that there is an ambush ahead, and the reconnaissance cavalry has been attacked!" That's why I stopped and waited until I got the details before deciding whether to move on or not! I really didn't mean it."

Hall didn't relent: "Why, don't you continue to march because of this little thing?" You must know that our current position is still not a short distance away from Pazar, we must launch an attack before dawn, and take that Qin Dong by surprise, otherwise this trip will be in vain! ”

Odoases said: "If it were me, I would rather be cautious than risk continuing to advance, our 1,000 cavalry here is the main force of our three tribes, if the losses are heavy, then our Germanic tribes here will be weakened, and they can only become vassals of the Eastern Roman Empire!" ”

Manlarik also felt that Odoaser was too careful, and he said, "Who would ambush here in this wilderness? Except for the hills over there, the surroundings are flat, have you ever heard that the Huns would use the trick of ambush in battle? Odoase, it's good that you be careful, and I'm very pleased, but now we really don't have time, so let's order the troops to move on, and then send the scouts to the front to investigate, maybe the scouts sent before are already rushing back to report the news! ”

Several leaders discussed for a while, but decided to move on, but at this moment, a cavalry galloped from the front, it was the herald under Odoase, the herald stopped and reported: "Chief, captain, a group of scouts sent a quarter of an hour ago has returned a man, but he has been wounded by an arrow, and before he fell unconscious, he said that there was a large force of Hun cavalry in front, the number of which was about four hundred!" ”

When several leaders heard this, they all looked at each other, and when they didn't know whether to leave or stay, everyone felt that the earth began to tremble, which was the rhythm of the cavalry speeding up, and everyone's faces suddenly changed.
