Cavalry running is a very difficult thing, not only a huge test of the physical strength and willpower of the soldiers, although the Han cavalry is strong, but it has not yet developed to the extent of one man and two horsemen. In this way, the army of 50,000 ran every day until the people were sleepy and the horses were exhausted before taking a short rest.

After a few days of marching, the front army and the rear army of Huo Quai's 50,000 cavalry corps were already thirty miles apart. Huo Guang and the Fulu branch marched to the rear, Huo Guang didn't know if this was arranged by Huo Qubing out of tactical considerations or because of his own existence, maybe there was no such thing as the 3,000 cavalry of the Fulu branch in history.

Huo Guang also estimated the distance along the way, because he only vaguely remembered that Huo Qubing met Zuo Xianwang's department after two thousand miles out of the fortress. It is not known exactly when and where, and most of the grasslands in this period also have no place names, so Huo Guang can only estimate the time when the war began by the distance.

Nowadays, it seems that it is about 1,700 miles after leaving the fortress, and it is geographically close to the north-central part of Mongolia. From this time on, Huo Guang was also extra cautious and had enough spirit. He knew that his body was still too weak in such a big battle after all, so don't think about killing the enemy or anything, as long as he saved his life, Huo Qubing would naturally be able to make himself gain military merits, plus his contribution to the stirrups, and he should be able to mix up an official position of 600 to 800 stones as soon as the battle of Mobei is over.

Huo Guang's plan is perfect, but the plan can never catch up with the changes. Soon, a herald sent by Huo Qubing came to Huo Guang and Fulu Branch.

"General, Hou Ye found the traces of Zuo Xianwang's army, and Hou Ye ordered the general to lead 3,000 men and horses in his headquarters to guard thirty miles away from the right rear of the army to prevent the Huns from sneaking attack." The herald brought Huo Quai's military order, and it turned out that he had discovered the army of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King.

"Could it be that my brother did it on purpose? It's all because of me? Huo Guang found that the time when the Han army and the army of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King met seemed to be earlier than the original history, and his first thought was that Huo Qubing just didn't want to let himself be in danger and deliberately arranged it this way.

The Fulu branch also glanced at Huo Guang intentionally or unintentionally, which made Huo Guang feel that the so-called vigilance was only arranged by Huo Quzhi in order to protect himself. However, doubts are doubts, and the Fulu branch still took 3,000 cavalry to the right side. In the Han army, which had been marching all the way, there was finally a feeling of war, as if a tragic battle might break out at any time.

Perhaps it was the infection of the atmosphere, Huo Guang also had an ominous feeling in his heart.

The atmosphere of the big battle covered the entire Mobei grassland, Huo Qubing and the Fulu branch had already moved to the right rear of the main army with three thousand cavalry, although they were thirty miles away, but soon it seemed to be from the sky The sound of rolling thunder came carefully, and it turned out to be the sound of the hooves of ten thousand horses galloping, and then mixed with the sound of gold and iron shouting and killing and colliding with weapons.

The three thousand soldiers beside Huo Qubing couldn't help but look in the direction of the main army, their eyes wide as if they could see the battlefield hidden by the horizon with their efforts.

"Marked with ......" said these words in everyone's hearts at the same time. There is no doubt that the rolling thunder is the great battle between Huo Quai's army and Zuo Xianwang's army.

Thirty miles away, there was no way to see what was happening on the battlefield, but even this faint sound already made people feel that the battle was fierce, and many soldiers were even more eager to try, and even the war horses were carrying their hooves in a commotion.

Huo Guang's palm held the hilt of the sword tightly, and the first battle of the Battle of Mobei took place thirty miles away from him. When the war really began, deep on the battlefield, Huo Guang was moved not by fear, but by excitement, as if the blood on his body began to boil.

"Is this the momentum of the battlefield? It's a pity that I'm still a child after all, and I haven't been trained in martial arts. No, you can't have a hot head at this time, you must always be cautious and sober. Huo Guang had the urge to vent his enthusiasm, but then he felt that something seemed wrong.

"Old seven and eight, you two should pay more attention to the situation around us, now we only have a mere 3,000 men, in case the Huns sneak attack our army, we will be caught off guard!" Huo Guang was a little uneasy in his heart, but he was just a person who had no specific position, let alone a title, and he couldn't order the resumption of the Lu Branch. At this moment, the old seven and eight looked calm, and they were not infected by the atmosphere of the battlefield, so Huo Guang ordered the two to pay attention to vigilance.

Because of the military order, the 3,000 cavalry of the Fulu branch could not join the battlefield without an order. Three thousand people were alone on the steppe looking at the horizon ahead.

Gradually, even Huo Guang felt a little pity in his heart, such a fierce battle, a battle of more than 100,000 cavalry, he couldn't participate in it personally, and he couldn't even see it, it was a pity to say it. And with such a large number of people, it is impossible to end it in time, even if the battle is carried out quickly, it is estimated that it will take six or seven hours to end.

"Could it be that I and these three thousand cavalry are just waiting here for six or seven hours?" Huo Guang felt a little helpless in his heart, it seemed that this was the only ending. As for the battle between Huo Qubing and King Zuo Xian, Huo Guang was not worried that Huo Qubing would lose.

"Huh, what's going on? How can there be the sound of horses' hooves in this reassurance? As if in response to Huo Guang's thoughts, he vaguely heard the sound of horses' hooves on his right.

"Listen to it. Is there also the sound of horses' hooves in that direction? Huo Guang hurriedly pointed to the sky and asked the old seven and eight. Hearing this, the two of them also looked seriously in the direction of Huo Guang's finger, and then showed a look of listening attentively.

"It's cavalry, but it's too far away to tell how many people there are because of the sound on the battlefield." Lao Qi, who has always been taciturn, replied in the affirmative.

"Not good, General Fuluzhi, the cavalry that appeared on the right side is likely to be the Hun cavalry." Huo Guang shouted loudly to Fulu Branch, with Huo Guang's shout, Fulu Branch couldn't help but look in the direction of the right, and soon he also heard the sound of horses' hooves, and at this time the sound of horses' hooves had gradually become clear.

"Order, the whole army meets the enemy!" In a panic, Fu Lu Zhi drew his long sword and shouted loudly to the soldiers beside him.

With the order of the Fulu branch issued, the three thousand cavalry turned their horses' heads in unison, the cavalry in the front row all pulled their bows and arrows, and the cavalry behind also drew their broadswords, and a killing aura instantly diffused.

Huo Guang felt this atmosphere, and said in his heart: "Sure enough, the closer this war is to him, the more obvious he feels. ’

"Why do you always feel weird, this preparation before the battle seems to be different from what I imagined. By the way, what about scouts? Why didn't you see the scouts? Huo Guang also drew his sword casually, but it suddenly occurred to him in his heart that the Hun cavalry suddenly appeared, at least when he was still seven or eight miles away from the Han army. I didn't see Huo Qu's illness or the Fulu tribe sending scouts at all, could it be said that there were no scouts during this period? But Huo Guangming had the impression that the scouts appeared in the Han Dynasty. And Huo Guang still remembered that during this time, he could occasionally see groups of scattered cavalry moving around the periphery of the army, weren't these scouts?

"General, slow." Huo Guang looked around at the surrounding terrain and did not continue to think about the scout for the time being, but stopped the Fulu Branch.

"Even if Huo Zhi stays behind, as long as I am still standing, I will not let a Hun get close to you!" Fu Lu Zhi said impatiently, in his opinion, Huo Guang must be scared when he called himself at this time. However, thinking of Huo Quai's explanation before leaving, even though the Fulu branch looked down on Huo Guang a little, he would still protect him with his life.

Huo Guang could only laugh dumbly when he said it so suddenly. At this moment, he could also be sure that Huo Quzhi's arrangement was really for the purpose of protecting himself. But Huo Qubing missed one thing, that is, the Huns never used to use strategy before, only knew how to blindly rush and kill, but since Zhao Xin returned to the Huns, some simple tactics have also appeared in the Huns. For example, at the moment, this strange army suddenly enters the battlefield, if the two sides are anxious, then either side has a surprise soldier suddenly cut in, which can indeed play a role in turning the situation.

"The general misunderstood, this Hun army that suddenly appeared must be going towards the main force of our army, and if this Hun army joins the battle at this time, it will be very bad for our army. However, since they dare to cut into the battlefield, they have enough troops to turn the tide of the battle, and then their numbers will definitely surpass our three thousand. Whether you can block it or not, and how long you can block it, is the key to this battle! Huo Guang hurriedly shouted, but what he could analyze was the Tao. It depends on how many people there are in the odd soldiers, a general battle of 100,000 people, even if you have one or two thousand odd soldiers, you won't be able to use them, and if the number is too small, it won't change anything at all.

According to Huo Guang's analysis, the number of Hun cavalry that suddenly appeared should be at least seven or eight thousand. That is, two to three times the number of your own troops.

"Since the number of our army is so small, the focus is on how to delay as much time as possible, as long as the main force of our army wins, this Hun cavalry will become a grasshopper after the autumn. Our army now only has a geographical advantage, and the general sees that the terrain is slightly higher than the other places, and our army should quickly occupy the high ground, so that it can not only reduce the speed of the enemy's cavalry impact, but also condescend to give full play to the advantage of bows and arrows, even if the cavalry charges, it will have an advantage. At this time, Huo Guang said that it was useless to say anything else, he could only get to Daoming as soon as possible, although most of the terrain on the grassland was gentle and open, but there were still some slow breakthroughs, and there was such a place not far away.

"It makes sense, the whole army will occupy the high ground ahead with me." Huo Guang's explanation was simple and clear, and the Fulu branch understood it as soon as he heard it, although he felt a little ashamed, but he didn't care about saying anything at the moment, and immediately took three thousand cavalry to occupy the high ground.

Huo Guang also rushed to the high ground with three thousand cavalry. I guess this is the first time that the term 'occupy the heights' has appeared in the ancient army, right? But can these 3,000 cavalry stop the Hun army, which is several times their size? Although Huo Guang was still calm, he couldn't help but worry about the fate of himself and the three thousand cavalry!
