Chapter 291: Battle on the Border

With the outbreak of war between the two countries, it is undoubtedly an egg to a stone for Gu Miaoxuan's current strength, so she needs the help of Nanye Kingdom.

"You took this letter to Nanyue Kingdom, Gu Ye naturally understood what to do after reading it!" Gu Miaoxuan explained to the envoy and said.

"Understood, the lower official guarantees completion." With that, he left the tent.

After coming to the border, after taking a look at the environment, Gu Miaoxuan had roughly guessed that the other party planned to use the cavalry they were good at, and there were plains within a radius of several miles, and such terrain was really not conducive to infantry combat.

In addition, their own soldiers are already at a disadvantage, and they can't be consumed.

"Everyone, give me more horses to resist horses and strengthen patrols!" Gu Miaoxuan said.

Seeing that the soldiers began to prepare, Gu Miaoxuan had to wait for the reply of the South Vietnamese Kingdom.

Two days later, the envoy came to the capital of Nanyue and handed Gu Miaoxuan's letter to Gu Ye, and after reading the letter, Gu Ye couldn't help but ponder.

"If Yunnan really defeats Lanling, whether it is to cede land for peace or directly annex it and become a vassal, the land of Yunnan is almost comparable to that of Nanyue, if they send troops before they have achieved results, they may be able to recover the lost territory." Gu Zhi thought to himself.

And the spies reported that now that the main force of Yunnan has been withdrawn, it is a good opportunity to regain the lost territory, even if they have negotiated peace earlier, but Yunnan has already told themselves that it will not be long before they will surpass themselves, and the next one will be their turn.

"Pass the order, summon General Zhen for me!" Gu Ye said anxiously.

Zhen Qingyun also understood what his brother-in-law was looking for him, so he was naturally willing to agree.

Then he asked the envoy to reply to Gu Miaoxuan, and he planned for the next war.

Two days later, Gu Miaoxuan, who received the news, was naturally very satisfied, so she attacked back and forth, thinking that Mo Xuanyin should be able to leisurely protect the land she had defeated, and her pressure would be greatly reduced.

Soon after, sure enough, the people on the Yunnan side began to can't help it, and when they saw the soldiers of Lanling Kingdom not far away, they immediately reported Gao Qi.

Gao Qi came to the city tower to take a look, and saw that their camp tents were hundreds of zhang and there were a lot of rejected horses, which was very difficult for them, who were good at cavalry.

"General, what shall we do now?" The adjutant general on the side asked.

At this time, Gao Qi was surprisingly calm, "In that case, then expel our infantry, let the cavalry charge and cover the infantry to come to their rejection of the horses, let them clear out, and then use the heavy cavalry to wipe them out." ”

The adjutant general on the side hesitated a little, "But if the general is like this, don't we have to lose a lot of people at the beginning?" And at the beginning of the assault, will heavy cavalry be used to cover the infantry? ”

"Heavy cavalry is our trump card, when the time comes, just use light cavalry, and the most important thing is to let the soldiers quickly clear the rejection of the horses." After Gao Qi finished speaking, he left the castle tower.

Seeing Gao Qi act like this, the deputy general had no choice but to silently arrange for the people below to start preparing.

After returning to the camp, Gao Qi suddenly received a letter from the capital, it turned out that the South Yue Kingdom had sent troops at this time, and at this time, the Yunnan State needed to rush the troops that had been supported to the border of the South Vietnam State, which made Gao Qi very helpless for a while.

"What does it mean now? While talking about the coming soldiers, he said that he had transferred people? Gao Qi said in surprise.

The messenger also looked helpless: "General Gao, we also sent it as soon as we received the news, and we don't know it." ”

At this time, the adjutant general explained: "The last general thinks that it was deliberately done by the other party's generals, we are powerful, and the other party will definitely not dare to act rashly. ”

Gao Qi slapped the table in a high atmosphere, in this way, his deployment would be disrupted, and his original plan needed more casualties, but he himself had a way to be able to fight quickly, and now the number of troops on both sides was the same, which was no advantage for himself.

"Pass the order, let's count the soldiers first, I'll arrange it freely." Gao Qi said.

The adjutant general on the side nodded in agreement and went down to prepare.

On the other hand, Gu Miaoxuan thought that it was time now, but the other party did not attack according to his own ideas, that is, he thought that they had no reinforcements, and since this was the case, he could not give the other party a chance to think.

At night, Gu Miaoxuan led the soldiers to carry out a night attack, Gao Qi was also a little flustered, thinking that the other party was holding on to the death, but now it seems that he still underestimated the other party a little.

"The general is not good, the enemy is coming to attack at night!" Said the adjutant general.

Gao Qi immediately went into battle, and the soldiers organized a counterattack in a very orderly manner, and after a while, they repelled the opponent.

"What? It turned out to be just a temptation. Gao Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

However, after a while, I saw five men in black begin to rush over, and Gao Qi commanded the soldiers very calmly and began to surround them.

Two quarters of an hour later, his troops suffered heavy casualties, making Gao Qi realize that those people were not simple.

"Oops!"

At this time, there were only two of the five black-clothed men left, but they had no intention of leaving, and the corpses of Yunnan soldiers were already piled up around them.

Gao Qi couldn't help frowning, if such a person was in Lanlin Country, I am afraid that it would be difficult to save his life if he was assassinated.

However, this does not mean that he has no protective measures at all, Gao Qi immediately raised his hand and said: "Release the arrow!" ”

For a moment, archers appeared around and immediately shot arrows at the people in black.

I saw that one of them immediately took his companion as a shield, and after a round of attacks by the archers, he immediately raised his sword and stabbed Gao Qi.

"Die!"

With a coquettish voice, Gao Qi couldn't help but sigh, a woman from Lanling Country actually had such skills, and even the other party's eyes couldn't say the sense of oppression.

But even so, for a high-ranking general, this alone was not enough to make him afraid.

He skillfully took two steps back, stabilized his body, and then immediately blocked the opponent's attack with his sword.

The assassin didn't stop, slashing several times in a row, so fast that Gao Qi gradually couldn't support it.

"It's over!" The assassin said coldly.

With a swing of his sword, he broke through Gao Qi's defense, and when the assassin was about to succeed, he saw the lieutenant suddenly rush out, pushing Gao Qi away, and the horizontal sword missed the opponent's attack, but the short sword stabbed into the opponent's shoulder.

When Gao Qi saw this scene, he immediately became angry and immediately raised his sword to attack the assassin in front of him.

The assassin was about to draw his short sword to meet it, but the lieutenant held her sword tightly.

"Damn!"

Gao Qi waved his sword, and the assassin had no choice but to let go, and at this time, she had no intention of fighting, so she let go of a few cruel words and left.

"The generals of Yunnan are nothing more than that, it is better to go back to Yunnan obediently."

At this time, Gao Qi looked at the injury of the deputy general, and immediately called the doctor, and returned to the camp alone to worry.

"General, the brothers have been buried." After a moment, a soldier said.

Gao Qi just waved his hand: "Let's all go down and rest." ”

Looking at the model in front of him, Gao Qi was a little confused, after the battle just now, but it hit the morale of the soldiers, if he didn't do something, I am afraid that the other party would want to surrender without a fight.

"Pass the order, and prepare to attack in two days!" Gao Qi said excitedly.

At this time, Gu Miaoxuan returned to his tent, looked at the wounds on his body and sighed: "I didn't expect to sacrifice four secret guards this time, in this case, the next sneak attack may not be successful." ”

However, after this time, she is confident that Gao Qi can no longer sit still, and this time the assassination has proved that she is capable of assassination, so now Gao Qi can only fight quickly, not only for the victory of the war, but also for his own life, but the loss is somewhat unexpected to her, and now she can no longer assassinate her.

"Ahem... Damn, after practicing for so long, there are still such hidden dangers..."Gu Miaoxuan said while clutching her chest, it seemed that her breathing was a little difficult because of the problem of luck.

Two days later, I saw Gao Qi gather the generals and start discussing the strategy this time.

"Everyone, we are now facing a barrier against horses in Lanling Kingdom, but they will all be made of wood, I plan to immediately discharge the cavalry at night and use fire to destroy their horses, and then the cavalry and infantry will attack together to surprise them."

The generals also agreed to this strategy, after all, it is more convenient to sneak attack at night, but how to solve the problem of torches?

"We can go first, and the cavalry will immediately attack and destroy their horses, and when they think we will attack with cavalry, the infantry and archers will attack immediately, and when the road is completely opened, we will immediately use the cavalry to go deeper, so that we can reduce the casualties of the cavalry, and also facilitate the siege later." Gao Qi said.

Everyone nodded, even if the heavy casualties of the infantry would affect the battle situation in the future, but if they didn't break through the defense line of Lanling Country now, then everything would be impossible.

After seeing that everyone agreed, Gao Qi began to arrange.

At night, I saw Gao Qi personally lead the cavalry to charge towards the other party's camp, and the soldiers of Lanling Kingdom saw such a scene and shouted: "The night attack is on!" ”

However, instead of rushing into the tents, they lit their torches and threw them into their wooden horses.

"Whew!"

For a while, the rejection horse began to burn, and the preparation that Lanling Kingdom was proud of was ruthlessly burned to ashes by the fire.

Gao Qi saw that the rejection of the horse was no longer a threat, and began to wave his sword and shout: "Archer, go!" ”

Suddenly the sound of killing sounded, and the archers of Yunnan Kingdom immediately launched an attack with the light of fire as a mark, and suddenly the arrows rained down, and Lanling Kingdom panicked for a while, with heavy casualties.

"Ahh

"Infantry advance!" Gao Qi shouted.
