"Hey," after listening to the report of the generals patrolling the camp, Liu Sheng pulled his beard and said with a sad face: "If we continue like this, we don't need to attack with more faces, we will collapse ourselves!" "He, a veteran general who has led troops to fight all his life, knows too well the subtlety of the morale of the army, to put it bluntly, the so-called iron-blooded hero who wins a hundred battles depends on one breath. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info As soon as this breath was released, it was a plate of scattered sand that collapsed in a blink of an eye......

"We have to make a decision early...... "The generals thought so, and they all looked at Zhi Duoxing Mo and asked.

Mo Wen couldn't help but smile bitterly, and spread his hands and said, "It depends on the marshal's decision." ”

"Hasn't the marshal made up his mind yet?" Everyone looked at the Chinese military tent not far away, which was brightly lit, and a silhouette pacing back and forth was reflected on the tent......

Mo Wen shook his head and sighed lightly: "For now, we can only wait for ......"

"Hey......" The generals were worried and sighed again and again.

Wang Xian in the Chinese military account did not know that the situation had reached a precarious point, and he had to make a decision. It is said that there is nothing to hesitate about, the army has run out of food and grass, the back road has been cut off, and the army of the Duoyan people may appear in front of them at any time. At this time, it seems that he managed to deal a head-on blow to the enemy and open the way to the south, which became the only way to survive.

But this road is really dangerous, as long as the Duoyan people avoid fighting and follow far behind, they can drag the Ming army to death. This is exactly what steppe wolves use when dealing with large, injured prey. The Doyan are cunning and treacherous, and are likely to adopt the same strategy...... So this seems to be the only way to survive by giving it a go, but it is more like the point of no return for him and his soldiers......

But contrary to the speculation of the generals, Wang Xian is really not hesitating, and those who really know him know very well that he has always been a decisive person. It's just that as he becomes more and more powerful, every decision is related to the life and death of thousands of people, so he can't be careless.

After the defeat of Hulu Valley, Wang Xian was unforgettable to realize this, although he had already made a decision in his heart, but he must have enough confidence to support it before he issued it to his subordinates.

He had already made a decision, if there was no news from Xin Ci Xin Yan and the others tonight, he would have to lead his army south early tomorrow morning and have a duel with the Duoyan people.

So Wang Xian, who was pacing back and forth in the tent, was not hesitating at all, but waiting, waiting for the news to return from the desert......

The hourglass placed on the low table in the tent was dripping with fine white sand silently. The fall of every grain of white sand represents the passage of time bit by bit, the time of the sun, the time of the sea, and the time of the child......

Wang Xian waited until midnight, there was no sound in the barracks, and the soldiers fell asleep with anxiety......

Wang Xian didn't feel sleepy, staring at the desert map on the wall, as if he wanted to dig out Arutai from it!

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps from far and near, and Wang Xian turned back suddenly, and saw the guards open the door curtain and put in two bald heads of dusty servants.

Seeing that he was compassionate and strict, Wang Xian's heart obviously skipped a beat, and he took three steps and two steps to meet him, and hissed urgently: "Did you find it?!" ”

Compassion and strictness can be regarded as the world's top master, but at the moment his face is tired and out of breath, the former squeezed out a smile with difficulty, nodded and said, "Fortunately, I am not dishonored." ”

"Great!" Wang Xian jumped up, hugged Senior Brother Xinci, and kissed him fiercely on his old face.

The guards were stunned, they had never seen the immobile Zhenguo Gong such a gaffe!

"Senior brother, don't be happy too early, your heart has always been kind to report good news and not bad news." The heart on the side poured a basin of cold water and said: "The oasis is found, but the distance is twice as expected, and it will be two hundred miles deep into the desert." ”

"Oh......" Wang Xian's smile really froze a lot, if it was more than a hundred miles as expected, a quick march could kill it. If you say 200 miles, the time it takes is far more than double.

Senior Brother Xinyan didn't seem to be enough, so after a pause, he added: "And on the way back, I also saw a huge sandstorm forming in the west, and I am afraid that it will soon sweep the desert." ”

"Hmm......" Wang Xian nodded, his expression becoming more solemn. He had learned about the power of sandstorms. Ten days ago, he and Mo Wen tried their best to set a trap, and they were about to catch a turtle in the Arutai urn, but who knew that a sandstorm suddenly broke out, and the sky was dark, flying sand and rocks, and they couldn't see anything a few feet away. As a result, Arutai was forced to escape with the crowd......

And it was still on the grassland, the desert was full of yellow sand, how could the power of the sandstorm be doubled? Going into the desert in such weather is simply looking for death. Could it be that this heaven and earth really has an immortal heaven and is blessing Arutai?

In the typhoon shelter, the Tatars were seen drinking wildly, and the appearance of madness was far beyond his expectations. Arutai was still a little worried, and said in his heart that he was a little Meng Lang? Hesitating whether to cut the carnival into a day so as not to spoil the big thing......

But after dark, he heard the sound of wind outside, and gradually the wind became stronger and stronger, and the sound of sand and gravel hitting the tent, Arutai hurriedly went out to take a look, and couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Immortal God bless, a sandstorm is coming!" ”

Once a sandstorm comes, it lasts at least two or three days, and for two or three days, they are absolutely safe. Arutai didn't believe anyone could cross a sandstorm and enter the desert to appear in front of him.

The Tatar master dispelled the idea of shortening the revelry, turned and entered the big tent, and began to drink heartily.

"I said why did the Taishi suddenly announce a carnival for three days, it turned out that he was clever and knew that he was going to scrape a sandstorm!" The drunken Tatar nobles toasted Arutai while offering a sycophant.

Arutai said, I'm okay if I have that ability. But he will never tell the truth, and after drinking the wine respected by the Tatar nobles, Arutai said with a reserved face: "As a general, it is natural to know astronomy and geography, and the old man also expected this sandstorm, and his heart said that there is nothing to do, so it is better to let the children have fun!" ”

"Taishi is really a god!" When the Tatar nobles heard this, they fell to the ground in admiration, and bowed down to Arutai one after another: "My Mongolian revival is set in Taishi!" ”

Arutai couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and just wanted to take all the credit, but after thinking about it, the words changed to "Hey, how can the old man be virtuous?" It's all blessed by the heavens of eternal life! ”

"Scared! It's really blessed by Immortal God! When the Tatar nobles heard this, they all said excitedly: "It was like this half a month ago, and it is like this now, it seems that the destiny of heaven is really in the Taishi!" ”

"Hahaha......" Arutai wanted this effect, picked up the wine bowl and proposed to everyone: "Come, let's pay homage to Changshengtian together, thank God for blessing!" If you can achieve great things in the future, you will live up to your eternal life! ”

"Respect for the Immortal Heaven!" The Tatar nobles had actually drunk almost enough, and if someone offered to give a dog, they would gladly obey.

After saluting the Immortal Heaven, Arutai poured another bowl and raised it high: "With the blessing of the Immortal Heaven, the final victory must belong to us!" Drink heartily, and when the wind stops, we will fight out of the typhoon shelter and chase the lost dogs! ”

"Whew!" The Tatar nobles howled with excitement as if they had already won.

However, if the cautious Arutai can be so optimistic, the situation is naturally incomparable...... Optimistic. Even if the people of Duoyan don't want to fight to the death with the Ming army, after three days, the Ming army will inevitably run out of food, and the army's morale will be broken and vulnerable at that time. Naturally, they had to rush out and kill them without leaving a piece of armor, and they couldn't let the Duoyan people pick peaches for nothing.

The Tatars, starting from Arutai, have already dreamed of victory. At this moment, the wine is particularly mellow, the horse-head qin is particularly pleasant, and even the sound of the wind and sand beating against the tent is like an accompaniment to their carnival......

This is really 'the fire tree and silver flowers never sleep, the brothers and sisters dance, and the song is full of joy.' If you can't lead alone, how can you tolerate the Tatars? The festival is unprecedented! ’

The camp of the Ming army, the tent of the Chinese army.

Wang Xian paced back and forth a few steps, now that he knew everything he should know, he naturally had nothing to hesitate about, and he made up his mind!

He quickly stopped, and ordered left and right in a deep voice: "Pass the order, the army will cook on the third watch, and set off on the fourth watch!" ”

The herald waited for a night, and finally waited for the order, and his expression was lifted, and he was about to go out to convey it.

was stopped by Wang Xian again: "Tell the military commissar to let the soldiers open up and have a full meal!" ”

"Yes!" The herald responded and hurried out to give the order.

With Wang Xian's order, the barracks became lively, and the Huotou Army was called by the officers to make a fire to cook, and in less than half an hour, the fragrance of the food filled the entire camp.

"I'm not dreaming, am I? Why does it smell so good? "The soldiers in their sleep, without the need for the officer to blow the horn of the bed, are hooked by the smell of food.

"There is meat, there must be meat!" The soldiers sat up and sniffed vigorously, their saliva dripping and their stomachs thundering.

People are iron and rice are steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic. These officers and men have been half-starved and half-fed since noon yesterday, and even more hungry in the middle of the night.

"Get up!" Thousands of households originally wanted the soldiers to sleep a little longer, but when they saw this, they didn't wait, and ordered in a deep voice: "Pack up your weapons and armor, and after eating, set off lightly!" ”

The soldiers were taken aback when they heard the order, and the so-called light departure means that they only carry weapons and armor, and all the bedding, blankets, pots and pots that have nothing to do with the battle must be thrown away. Usually this only happens in two situations, one is to desperately pursue the enemy, and the other is to desperately flee, both of which are very unusual.

You must know that the Ming army pursued Arutai for thousands of miles, and only let the forward army travel lightly, and never gave an order for the whole army to be lightly armed...... (To be continued.) )
