Chapter Eighty-Nine: Plans to Cross the River
"The falconry training technique I have is different from others, it is one of the ultimate secret methods exclusive to my clan's holy position, and it can only be taught to one person, unless the next generation of saints is produced, no one can learn this skill again!" As if sensing the doubts of the evil shadow, Mao Dunyi's face was flat, and he said casually.
"General Li, how many troops have you recruited now?" The evil shadow nodded slightly at Mao Dun Yiyan, cast a grateful look, turned to Li Ling and asked, the occasion is different, and the title is naturally different. Looking at the performance of the evil shadow, it is not difficult for everyone to guess that the evil shadow has obtained some kind of skill taught by the Xiongnu princess, although they all want to know what they have learned, especially the three beauties who are "guests", but the evil shadow does not want to say, and the occasion is relatively special, and they are not easy to ask, so as not to annoy others.
"The population base is too small, and the unimaginable preferential policies proposed by General Du will only reach half the time, after all, the time is too short! We are also afraid that the forced recruitment of soldiers will affect the quality of the army, although we have spent a lot of money to recruit, but we have only recruited about 2,000 people, which has reached half of the population base! Li Ling said with a ashamed face, paused and continued: "Although these 2,000 people cannot be compared with the current army, compared to other armies, I dare to guarantee that they will definitely not fall behind." These two days were spent on high-intensity training, and all of them were trained as archers! ”
"Well, don't blame yourself, you've done a great job!" The evil shadow nodded with satisfaction, the day before yesterday he reluctantly took out 1,000 diamond coins to develop the military with all his might, although the recruitment of 2,000 troops was still too little, but he was basically satisfied, and paused and continued: "You allocate 500!" Well, 300 horsemen escorted Princess Maudun back to the tribe, and the rest rested, and after the meeting, we left immediately! ”
"Yes!" Li Ling was stunned, there were not many troops in the first place, and he took out nearly one-sixth of them to escort a prisoner back, which made him a little difficult to accept, but the quality of the soldiers still made him resolutely carry out the orders of the lord. He immediately stood up and answered, and prepared to leave.
"I'm not going back!" Just as Li Ling got up to leave, Mao Dun Yiyan suddenly said loudly, everyone's puzzled and surprised eyes immediately gathered on her, it was surprising enough for the evil shadow to send a small army to escort her back, but I didn't expect this princess with the status of "captive" to not want to go back, feeling everyone's eyes, Mao Dun Yiyan's face was slightly red, and immediately continued: "I mean not to go back for the time being, after all, we promised to send the Holy Eagle to help you return to the Central Plains, but now we can't do it, but I have a guardian Holy Eagle, I can still help you point the way. Our nation is very ...... Very reputable! ”
Although Mao Dun's reason is a bit far-fetched, it also makes some sense, at least she can rely on her guardian eagle to avoid a lot of useless battles. As for why Mao Dun Yiyan didn't want to go back, did he still like the identity of a prisoner? This is not something that everyone should be concerned about for the time being. However, the three girls are curious about what skills the evil shadow got from the Hun princess, so that there is such a performance, and throughout the deeds of the gun god evil shadow, many people think that the gun god evil shadow is an indifferent person who loves to kill and pick the door. Looking at the red moon dotted with Mao Dun's eyebrows, it is said that it is still evidence that the evil shadow heard that because she lost 4,000 troops, she almost killed the Hun princess directly.
Seeing Li Ling's inquiring eyes, the evil shadow pressed his palm to signal him to sit down again, and immediately asked, "Everyone is planning a route for the transfer!" "The evil shadow is not a pretentious person, since Mao Dun Yiyan doesn't want to go back, and what he said is very reasonable, he also saves spending troops to escort him, not to mention that what she said is indeed very reasonable. So naturally I changed the topic, not wanting to dwell on this matter any longer.
"Just follow the route originally set, if possible, cross the Tarimur River, leave from the other side of the river, and get rid of the current enemy siege first!" Du Cheng stared at the map on the table and said.
"What do you think?" The Shadow nodded, looking at the others.
"What was the route you originally set?" The Queen of Han Ji asked with a frown, and the women of the world and the free moon also showed questioning eyes.
"It's a return trip along the banks of the Tarimur River!" The other people of the Evil Shadow Army were silent as if they were thinking about it, and the Evil Shadow said lightly, after all, they were not very at ease with the three of them, so there was no need to explain the specific route in detail!
"Have you ever imagined that if these three enemy forces gathered, it would be equivalent to driving us into the river......" Hanhime said with a frown, connecting the three directions of north, south, and east with her slender jade fingers.
"Well, so we must break through the enemy's defenses and break out of the encirclement before they can form an encirclement!" Evil Shadow said with a smile.
"This idea may have worked three days ago, but after three days, who knows how many troops have been gathered in the south, and perhaps the route to the south has been completely cut off!" The woman said disdainfully.
Hearing the words of the women, everyone couldn't help but ponder, and they were right, maybe the army in the south has been so large that it occupies all the routes to the south, so thinking about it, it seems that there is only one way to turn back, and the north is the smoothest? After all, it's only 60,000 troops! Isn't that going further and further? And other armies can also surround it.
"How long would it take to build a bridge here that could be crossed?" Evil Shadow stared at the map closely, and suddenly pointed his finger on the place representing the Tarimur River and asked.
The individuals present couldn't help but look at each other, after all, everyone is really not familiar with the prairie. Although the route has been booked a long time ago, it is impossible to be the first to listen to everything clearly, but this is also an oversight of the Evil Shadow Army, just thinking about waiting until the Huns officially hand over the exchange items and training methods, and then break through with all their might, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth, but I didn't expect that I might have to cross the river.
"The Tarimur River is nearly 100 meters wide and dozens of meters deep, but the current is so fast that some people may be able to swim through, but horses are unlikely! If you want to build a bridge, if there are enough people, it will take about half a day! Or "locals" Mao Dun Yiyan explained, paused and continued: "Almost 500 people are enough!" ”
"Well, from here to the Tarimur River, it takes about three or four hours to ride a horse, how many war horses do we have now?" Evil Shadow asked with a good-natured smile at Mao Dunyiyan.
"About sixteen thousand horses!" Du Cheng answered without hesitation.
"Well, now we will make every effort to collect the materials needed to build bridges and build city walls, and I will carry them, in addition to our army, we will try to recruit skilled craftsmen and other engineers corresponding to the war horses, and rush to the Tarimur River with all our strength when we are ready, and then consider whether to cross the river and jump out of the circle when the situation comes!" Evil Shadow Zhengrong ordered, paused and continued, "Does anyone have any other suggestions?" Otherwise, proceed with this plan immediately! ”
