This banshee is still very appealing, a few seconds of effort, there are a lot of fierce women gathered around, there is no weapon in the hand, so they pick up the stones on the ground, and throw them at me, I am wearing a metal armor, naturally I am not afraid of stones, as long as I protect my face, don't break the appearance, but shame! A dignified general, being teased by a few shrews!

Fortunately, the guards behind them arrived in time to disperse the women comrades.

As a deputy general, Yang Kang asked me in a low voice: "General, did they recognize the wrong person?" ”

"Uh...... Probably," I replied vaguely, "pass the order, the brothers in front are bleeding on the battlefield, don't waste any more time, regroup your team, and move quickly!" ”

"Yes, General!"

The team was organized into a double row, and quickly got rid of the village woman, through the village, a grassland in front, this is the grassland where Wu Mei and I were chased by the archers of the Qinglong Army last time, but the direction of the last time, it is slightly different from this time, it is very close to the White Tiger Country, in order to prevent a sneak attack during the march, I changed the long snake formation, and turned the 3000 cavalry into three phalanxes, one phalanx for every 1000 people, in a zigzag shape, and each other is advancing with horns, so that no matter from which direction the enemy is attacking, we can immediately meet the battle, The formation is not chaotic.

It was going well, but I saw a few cavalry scouts in civilian clothes from a distance, they did not dare to approach, they only followed us from a distance beyond the range of the archers, and I ignored them, and walked through the steppe, to the woods that had almost left me hanging up last time, and I ordered to slow down, maintain formation, remain vigilant, and walk forward.

If the White Tiger Army divides its forces and comes to help, this vast Black Forest is an excellent ambush location for them.

After two hours of marching, before I reached the end, I noticed that my horse began to pant heavily, and it seemed that it could not run a little, and there happened to be a small river in front of me, so I ordered the whole army to dismount and rest, rest for ten minutes, and then set out on the road.

Yang Kang brought a map and showed me the current location, from the edge of the Black Forest, there are still twenty kilometers, after the Black Forest, is the "Great Wall" of the White Tiger Country, the Great Wall is now in the hands of Qinglong, after the Great Wall, five kilometers away, is the White Horse City.

"Is this the Valley of the Dead?" I asked, pointing to a green area on the map beyond the Great Wall.

"That's right, the environment in this valley is extremely treacherous, and it is said that there are ...... inside"

I waved my hand and smiled, "No need to introduce, I've been there." ”

"The general has been in?" Yang Kang was puzzled.

"The last time you fought in White Horse City, didn't you notice anything unusual?" I asked.

Yang Kang thought for a while: "It seems to ...... When our army was attacked by you from behind, the officers and men of the whole army, as if they had fallen into an evil spirit, lost their combat effectiveness instantly, and so did I, and when I eased up the momentum, our artillery position had been broken, and the White Tiger Army formed a two-sided attack. ”

I can see those green translucent ghosts, which ordinary demon soldiers can't see, they can only understand as "evil spirits".

I laughed and said nothing, and reached into my arms to smoke a cigarette, which was also in my jacket pocket, and rushed downstream, and when I undressed at the portal, I only took the treasure map out of my jacket and rolled it up on my belt to lock it to prevent it from being lost, this thing can't be lost, perhaps, it will be something I turn over.

Xu'er's injuries have healed, she may feel that because of her recklessness last night, she dragged everyone down, and took the initiative to ask Ying, saying that she wanted to do something, so I asked her to lead a small team to follow the established route to explore the way ahead, and in case of any situation, report immediately.

It was an unintentional move not to come, but I didn't expect it, and it also received a miraculous effect, I think, this may be the protagonist's aura.

After ten minutes of rest, the cavalry mounted their horses, crossed the creek and continued on their way.

After walking another five kilometers, the woods in front of me suddenly became denser, which was simply obscuring the sky and the sun, and the visibility was only ten meters, which was not much different from the dark.

I stopped my horse, opened the yin and yang eyes, and observed the complexion in the dark forest, sure enough, there were a lot of things hidden, but they all looked like animals, not the ambush soldiers of the White Tiger Country, and I was just about to order a quick passage through this area, in the dark, a black gas appeared, and it ran towards me quickly, it was Xu'er, only herself.

After a while, the whiskers appeared, and the horses were gone, and they ran back.

"What's wrong? What about your men? I asked with a frown.

Xu Er took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "The whole army is annihilated." ”

"Ambush?" I asked, and Su'er nodded.

"How far?" I asked again.

"Map." After all, Su'er has lived for more than a thousand years, experienced countless wars, and is estimated to have been a general and knows how to read military maps.

Yang Kang dismounted, opened the map, several leaders came over, Xu Er used a pen to map the distribution of the enemy army, directly ticked out, according to the scale of the calculation, the enemy army should be three kilometers away from us, in the shape of a pocket formation, Xu Er made a cross in the middle of the pocket: "Blame me for being careless, I didn't notice them in time, and when the team arrived in the pocket, I found the ambush soldiers, killed by the rain of arrows in all directions, I escaped from the top of the tree." ”

The beard is black, flying around, dodging the arrow array, no problem.

"The pockets are huge, how many people are there?" I asked.

"At least five thousand." Su'er replied.

"Infantry or cavalry?" Yang Kang asked.

"It should be all infantry, but they are all in ambush in the trees, and if we charge head-on, we will not take advantage of the cavalry." Su'er said again.

I took the pen from her hand: "Don't fight, the soldiers will divide into two ways and go around." ”

"Why don't you fight?" Qin Shuyao asked.

"The meaning of our 3,000 people is to go to White Horse City to support, as long as we capture White Horse City, then the 5,000 ambush soldiers in this forest are like rootless trees, sourceless water, if we fight to the death with these 5,000 people, even if we win, it will have no practical meaning, it is a complete waste of troops." I explained.

"That makes sense," Yang Kang nodded, "The big atmosphere is interspersed and bypassing the pockets, and you can give full play to the advantages of our cavalry." ”

I nodded and drew a rally point on the map: "Shu Yao, you and Xu Er lead a team and take the left road, and Yang Kang and I lead a team and take the right road, pass as fast as possible and meet at the assembly point." ”

"I'll be on your team." Shu Yao whispered that she was afraid that I would be in danger.

I thought about it, nodded, and asked Xu'er and Yang Kang to divide their troops into two ways, set off separately, and after more than half an hour of rapid marching, they finally bypassed the encirclement and came to the assembly point, but after waiting for a long time, they never saw Xu'er's soldiers and horses coming.

"It can't be some kind of accident, right?" Qin Shuyao said worriedly.

"Your Highness, I'll take a look." Xie Bi'an pleaded for help.

"Be careful." Qin Shuyao said.

The wind is blowing, I can only hear the sound of the waves and the sea, I can't hear any abnormal movements, don't look at the interspersed only half an hour, because the speed of the green dragon demon horse is extremely fast, in fact, this assembly point is already five kilometers away from the enemy encirclement, if there is a battle over there, it is normal for us not to hear it.

Single-handedly, he entered the Black Forest and quickly ran back, needless to say, an arrow stuck in the horse's skin thigh said it all.

But how is this arrow a red wing?

"Your Highness, Sister Su'er's troops are surrounded by enemy troops and can't get out!" Xie Bi'an replied.

I rode my horse and staggered with her, and pulled out the arrow, and the horse of Bi'an was so angry that I almost threw her off.

"This arrow isn't from the White Tiger Army, right?" I asked the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Army beside me.

They all shook their heads, and one of the junior officers came over, took a closer look, and said, "It should be the Red Feather Arrow of the Vermilion Bird Army." ”

The Blue Dragon Army uses black feather arrows, the White Tiger Army uses white feather arrows, and the red feathers correspond to Vermilion Birds, so that's the case.

"What to do? To save or not to save? Qin Shuyao asked, she didn't mean to ask if she wanted to save Xu'er, but to ask me, if you wanted to save the more than 1,000 cavalry, Xu'er didn't need to be saved, after her people died, she would come.

"What do you see?" I asked a few officers of the Blue Dragon Army.

"General," a Qinglong officer hugged his fist and said, "In the humble opinion of his subordinates, he can't save it, it has been analyzed very clearly before, we have few people, we are not their opponents, and our first task is to reinforce White Horse City, now, there are still these 1,500 cavalry, if you go to rescue, maybe 3,000 people will fold in." ”

"Well, what you say makes a lot of sense," I nodded, "in this case, you take your brothers and go to the White Horse City to support first, and a few of us will go to the rescue, so as to avoid the annihilation of the whole army." ”

"How can that be ......," the officer frowned.

"This is a military order," I said calmly, "go, wait for us for fifteen minutes when we get to the Great Wall, and if we don't come after fifteen minutes, you go to the third princess and tell her what happened." ”

The officer hesitated, took the order, and continued to march in the direction of White Horse City with 1500 cavalry.

"How do you save it?" Qin Shuyao asked me.

"I can only try my luck, I hope to meet the old people." I pinched the Vermilion Feather Arrow in my hand, shook my head and smiled.
