Chapter 32: Three Hundred Miles

Ao Lie led the vanguard troops to walk less than thirty miles out of Jijun City, when he saw two horses, one black and one white, galloping towards him. Soon, the two horses came to the vanguard army, the knights on the horse turned over and dismounted and knelt in front of Ao Lie, the knight on the white horse was a scout sent by Zhang Liao, the scout was the first to speak: "Lord Lord, our team met the messenger of the border army on the road ahead, and the captain ordered the villain to report back to the Lord Gong." ”

The knight riding the black horse hurriedly said: "General Yu, I am the county soldier of Youbeiping, the county guard has received the news that the 20,000 people in front of the Wuhuan people have conquered Jianping, and after killing all the people in the city, they are marching to the White Wolf Mountain, and the special villain has come to report." ”

After Ao Lie heard the messenger's return, a burst of anger rose! Jianping City was originally the territory of the Han Dynasty, and later when Emperor Huan was in power, Jianping was allocated to the Wuhuan people to let the Wuhuan people recuperate. However, the Wuhuan people are almost the same as the Huns, they are nomadic people, living on fishing and animal husbandry, and do not produce, so a large number of Han people were moved into Jianping to help the Wuhuan people make various necessities of life. Later, the white horse general Gongsun Zan led his troops to drive out the Wuhuan people and returned Jianping to the rule of the Han Dynasty.

I didn't expect the Wuhuan people's march to be so fast this time, and they captured Jianping with lightning speed and slaughtered the city! Ao Lie Tie blushed and looked to the north, which was the direction of Jianping. Suppressing the anger in his heart, Ao Lie asked in a deep voice: "When did the Wuhuan people break through Jianping?" The county soldier stumbled and replied, "The villain doesn't know." ”

Ao Lie's face sank again, and then asked, "Then when did your family Taishou let you come out to report the news?" This time the messenger replied very happily: "General, it was three days ago." Ao Lie lowered his head, glanced at the messenger carefully, and asked, "Have you been delayed on the way?" The messenger hurriedly shook his head: "In the name of Taishou, the villain rushed to report the news day and night, and did not dare to delay for a moment. ”

Ao Lie pondered for a while, and then said to an elite of the Blood Killing Camp beside him: "Take him down to change a horse, and hurry up to report to Lord Zhou Mu." When the messenger heard this, he bowed his head in thanks, and then followed the elite of the bloody battalion to the rear army to change horses. Ao Lie looked at the back of the messenger and said in a deep voice, "Wen Ruo, Zitai, have you noticed anything? Xun Yu and Tian Chou glanced at each other, and Tian Chou said first: "Chou is stupid, I just vaguely feel that something is wrong, but I can't find what the problem is." Ao Lie turned his gaze to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, what do you think?" ”

Xun Yu smiled and said, "The lord already knows it, so why ask? Ao Lie shook his head and said: "One person is short, two people are long, and I am afraid that there is something missing." Let's talk about your opinion. ”

Zhang Xiu on the side asked strangely, "Senior Brother Mo Han, what are you talking about?" Ao Lie smiled and said to Zhang Xiu: "Senior Brother Youwei, you have excellent marksmanship, and you are also good at arranging troops, but you don't learn this trick of scheming." Hearing Ao Lie say this, Zhang Xiu was even more puzzled: "We are now leading troops to fight, so it is involved in the art of power and conspiracy?" Ao Lie waved his hand and motioned for Zhang Xiu to calm down first and listen to Xun Yu's opinion.

Xun Yu said slowly: "Actually, the lord has seen through the problem, so Yu is going to talk about it in detail." After a pause, Xun Yu asked Zhang Xiu and the others: "Dare to ask the generals, how many days will it take to get from Youbeiping to Jijun, if you hurry up?" Zhang Xiu said without thinking: "If it is a white crane sitting down, it will be there in half a day." Even if you change to an ordinary war horse, it should be two days at most. ”

Xun Yu nodded and continued: "That's right, but the messenger just now said that he came three days ago in the name of the Taishou of Youbeiping, and came day and night, why didn't he go to Jijun in the third day?" After Xun Yu said this, everyone also found the problem.

Tian Chou said: "I felt that something was wrong before, but after Wen Ruo's reminder, I understood, I am afraid that the Taishou of Youbeiping deliberately delayed the trip." ”

Ao Lie smiled and said, "It's not enough, Wen Ruo, you go on." ”

Xun Yu arched his hand and continued: "The few words that the lord asked the messenger just now seemed to be a random question, but in fact there was a mystery in it. From the messenger's answer, Yu deduced the following. One is what Zitai said just now, Youbeiping Taishou deliberately delayed the timing of the report; Second, the Taishou of Youbeiping deliberately concealed the time of the Wuhuan people's march, so the messenger did not know when Jianping was captured; Third, this time, the Wuhuan people drove straight in, and their whereabouts flickered, I am afraid that someone is helping the Wuhuan people to cover the route of the march. ”

Ao Lie said: "Wen Ruo is really my son's room, what he said is exactly what he thinks in his heart. As he spoke, he turned his head and asked Tian Chou: "Zitai, if I remember correctly, Youbeiping Taishou is Zou Fu, right?" Tian Chou replied: "The lord is not mistaken, it is indeed Zou Fu." ”

Ao Lie's face revealed a sense of slaughter, and even the cold voice made people tremble: "Zou Fu is a Han man, but he does traitorous things, his heart can be punished!" "As a person who crossed over more than 2,000 years later, Ao Lie hates the traitor the most! If it weren't for the scum among these Han people, how could there be a chaotic situation in later generations? How could there be an Eight-Nation Coalition army in later generations entering Beijing? How could there be a later Nanjing Massacre and the Eight-Year War of Resistance?

Xun Yu felt the killing intent emanating from Ao Lie's body, which he had never felt in Ao Lie before, all along, Xun Yu thought that although he was young, he was smart and wise, calm and generous, and better at perceiving people's hearts; Not only can you strategize with your wit, but you can also show your martial arts, take the lead on the battlefield, and fight with the enemy; Treat his comrades like a warm sun, and although he treats his soldiers strictly, he is extremely sympathetic to ordinary soldiers in private. Xun Yu thinks that if Ao Lie is adding a little ruthlessness, he will be a perfect male master. I thought that after years of precipitation, Ao Lie would naturally be able to learn ruthless methods after a few years, but to Xun Yu's surprise, at this moment in front of him, Ao Lie broke out, and he was rarely ruthless.

Ao Lie's cold voice sounded again: "Zitai, go check that horse and see if there is a problem." Tian Chou agreed, and walked towards the mount of Zou Dan's messenger with a few elites.

After a while, Tian Chou walked back and said to Ao Lie: "My lord, that horse has indeed been tampered with, it has just been castrated, and its injuries are not yet healed. ”

After listening to Tian Chou's return, Ao Lie's face was so cold that he could almost scrape off a layer of frost: "Sure enough." Pass my military order, march quickly, rush to Youbeiping for me before dark, arrest Zou Fu's whole family, all the old and young, once the evidence is conclusive, destroy him all over the house! ”

Listening to Ao Lie's ruthless order, no one questioned it. The facts are in front of us, and no one can believe that Zou Fu did not betray the country. Zhang Xiu shouted even louder: "Just cut it directly, what do you have to do!" ”

Ao Lie shook his head slightly and said, "Don't be impatient, Senior Brother Youwei, before we figure out the facts, we must not kill good people by mistake." His tone softened, and Ao Lie said meaningfully: "Youwei, sooner or later you will have to lead an army alone, remember not to speculate in the future, and to be calm." Zhang Xiu's face flushed, knowing Ao Lie's expectations for herself, hoping that she would be able to be alone in the future, so she said sincerely: "Yes." Thank you Brother Mo Han for mentioning it, and I wrote it down. ”

Ao Lie said to Zhang Liao again: "Wenyuan, you choose a fine sergeant to return to Jijun, tell my father what I just speculated, and let him prepare early." Zhang Liao replied: "No! ”

The steel gun went all the way forward, and Ao Lie shouted loudly: "Target Right Beiping, go at full speed, and those who don't reach Right Beiping before dark, cut!" As Ao Lie shouted, none of the more than 2,800 soldiers made a different sound, but clenched their weapons, threw off their strides and accelerated towards Youbeiping, which Ao Lie's steel gun pointed at.

The sunset glows with a red smiling face, looking down on the land of Beiping on the right. It seems that he found that there is something special about this place in Youbeiping, so he refused to fall down the West Mountain, hung in the sky with great interest, and swept every inch of land in Youbeiping with his only remaining afterglow.

Suddenly, the sound of galloping horses' hooves interrupted the excitement of the setting sun. At the junction of the sea and the sky, a group of cavalry with a solemn and ruthless aura appeared on the ground level. Immediately after, two thousand strong soldiers appeared behind the cavalry, although their faces were tired, but like the cavalry, their eyes also showed a coldness.

The setting sun hanging in the sky seemed to be frightened by this group of cold warriors, and suddenly, he hid behind the mountain. As the sun sets, the sky and the earth gradually darken.

Ao Lie restrained the night snow dragon horse, and glanced back at the warriors who had galloped three hundred miles with him, and a smile appeared on his face. No one was left behind, and more than 2,800 soldiers followed closely behind him. In one day, the march was 300 miles! If it is a maxima that Ao Lie sat on or a BMW that Zhang Xiu and others sat on, of course it would not be a problem to travel 300 miles a day, but the problem is that among Ao Lie's subordinates, although there are 800 elite soldiers of the blood killing battalion equipped with war horses, their war horses are all called good horses, but there is still a lot of gap from BMW, and it is not easy to travel 300 miles a day, not to mention, there are 2,000 foot soldiers! These two thousand foot soldiers relied on their legs and followed the hooves of the war horses and ran together for three hundred miles!

"The whole army rested for an hour, and ordered the soldiers of the bloody killing battalion to dismount and rest, and feed the war horses with forage. The foot soldiers form a circle, walk slowly for two moments before they can sit down and rest, and those who violate the order will be killed! Ao Lie gave the order in a cold voice.

A few people who followed Ao Lie split up to convey the order. After the communication was completed, Zhao Yuncai asked softly, "Senior Brother Mo Han, why do you want to let the foot pawn slow down for two moments first?" Ao Lie asked Xun Yu with a smile: "If Wen Ruo knows Lu Dao, what does so-and-so mean?" ”

Xun Yu replied with a smile: "The lord is really knowledgeable, and he even has dabbling in medicine. As he spoke, he pointed to the foot soldiers who were walking slowly and explained: "Although these soldiers are elite, the long march has caused great fatigue to their bodies and spirits, and if they are rashly allowed to sit on the ground to rest, the spirit and spirit that have been condensed in the long march will be leaked, and in that case, the two thousand foot soldiers will be weakened in the next few hours, and their combat effectiveness will be reduced to the lowest point." The reason why the lord let them walk slowly was to prepare for the siege later, and secondly, he was also responsible for the lives of these soldiers. ”

Ao Lie nodded with a smile and looked at Zhao Yun: "Senior Brother Zilong, not everyone has a physique like you and me, these warriors are ordinary people, and their physical strength has a limit, once they break through the limit, the best way is not to stop and rest immediately, but to carry out recovery training, do you understand?" ”

Zhao Yun nodded and said, "Yes, thank you for your advice." Zhang Liao, Zhang Xiu and others on the side also kept nodding their heads to show their understanding, and they all secretly sighed in their hearts, following Ao Lie's side was indeed a great benefit.

Two quarters later, Ao Lie issued another order: choose a hidden place, make a fire to cook, and after the whole army has a full meal, continue to rest, and wait until the deadline of one hour arrives, and immediately launch a surprise attack on Youbeiping!
