After a slight silence, Xian Yubao suddenly remembered Lei Qing's explanation before leaving. Turning to Mr. Hao, who was calm, he asked, "Mr. Hao, the boss is about to explain that there is a big matter to discuss with you, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Mr. Hao's face was also slightly solemn: "General Zhou, how long will it take for the enemy army to reach the area of my Yehe Town." ”

"The enemy is not marching in a hurry, but in concealment, not fast, obviously trying to catch us by surprise. According to the speed of their march, it is now about two hundred miles away from the range of my Yehe town. But they may speed up at any time, and will hit us as soon as tomorrow night. ”

"Tomorrow night?" Mr. Hao stroked his beard, and his gaze became heavier: "General Xianyu, please immediately arrange the best riders and send a request for help to the two nearest friendly forces." ”

"The two closest friendly forces are the 6th Iron Cavalry Regiment stationed in Mobei Town and the 4th Iron Cavalry Regiment in Longxi Town, one is about 800 miles and the other is about 600 miles. Xian Yubao also knew the arrangement of his own camp well, and said in a deep voice: "The two group seats and I have some friendship, if everything goes well, our letter for help will arrive tomorrow night." But even if the Sixth Regiment and the Fourth Regiment were to send troops immediately, if they galloped in the starry night, they would at least arrive after five days. Mr. Hao, a large force of cavalry is not as brisk as a single horseman. ”

The northwest is open and sparsely populated. Between villages, the distance between villages is often more than ten or dozens of miles. Between towns and towns, it is even more distant.

After that, Xian Yubao immediately asked Mr. Hao to write two letters asking for help, and handed them over to the most trusted people in his guards, asking them to ask for help.

"The enemy is outnumbered. Mr. Hao did not let go of his brow because the letter for help had been sent. The enemy army will arrive in the town of Yeh as soon as tomorrow night to carry out operations. However, reinforcements would not arrive until at least five days later.

In other words, at least under extremely unfavorable circumstances, we must stick to the four days.

But the problem is that the walls of Yeh Town are weak, and it can still hold on in the face of a small number of enemy troops. But fifteen hundred cavalry swept in, and with the current manpower, it was extremely difficult to resist.

Although the Black Flag Regiment has never stopped recruiting, the current total number is only in the early 500s, and a large part of them are new recruits. There are only about two hundred that can really be called elite.

But these are not what Mr. Hao is most worried about. If he were the commander-in-chief, it would be impossible for him to give up the horse thief's advantage in cavalry to besiege Yehe Town, and even if he won, the loss would be great. Instead, they will do everything they can to lure or force the Black Flag Regiment of the garrison in Yehe Town to go out of the town to fight.

Then, if you want to force the Black Flag Regiment to fight in the field, the easiest way is to attack those weakly defended villages with open fire, and slaughter them one by one to see how long the Black Flag Regiment can shrink.

If the Black Flag Regiment continues to shrink, even if it waits for reinforcements to come and force back the Horse Thieves Regiment, then the reputation of the Black Flag Regiment will be completely ruined. Not to mention that there is no place in this northwest land, no matter where you run, you will be pointed at your nose and scolded.

What's more, most of the soldiers under the command of the Black Flag Regiment are from the northwest. How could it be possible to watch a gang of horse thieves slaughter a village and remain indifferent?

However, once attacked, they will be forced to fight in the field.

This is an easy strategy to think of, and Mr. Hao believes that the leader who can command 1,500 horse thieves will definitely not be unintelligent with these things.

"General Xian Yu sent three scouts to gallop away in the direction of North Yancheng. If you are very lucky, you may run into the lord. Even if you can't touch it, you must go to Beiyan City to inform the lord. Mr. Hao gave another order. He also knew that the lord was attacking Zhen Jimu in Beiyan City, and it was impossible for him to come back so soon. But even then, he had to.

If Lei Qing, the leader of the Black Flag Regiment, is here, it will have a greater impact on morale.

At the same time, Mr. Hao pulled out a map of the vicinity of Yehe Town. Now that he has recognized Lei Qing as his master, he is ready to follow Lei Qing to make a name for himself. Lei Qing trusted him and attached great importance to him, and he didn't want to burn it down just a few days after entrusting the foundation into his hands.

Whether it is a strong defense or a strong attack, the comparison of the military strength of the two armies is the next policy.

"General Zhou Han, you immediately dispatch the scout brigade to pay close attention to the enemy's every move, and it is best to find out who the leader of the other party is and what the other party's purpose is. Mr. Hao closed his eyes half-closed, and when the strategies flowed through his heart like flowing water, he ordered: "I hope to receive the latest information every other hour." I hope to see us win a great battle before the lord returns. ”

As if Mr. Hao's calmness and self-confidence infected everyone, Zhou Han's somewhat sluggish spirit also perked up: "Mr. Hao, don't worry, I will definitely complete the task." ”

"General Zhou, be careful, your scout brigade is the eyes and ears of our Black Flag Regiment, if you are gone, the Black Flag Regiment will become blind and deaf. This battle is bound to be lost. Mr. Hao stroked his beard, looking like a master in the world, and encouraged: "Since God is lucky to let you discover the enemy army in advance, it means that God's will is on our side." I can assure you that as long as you do a good job, we will not only win this battle, but we will win it by a big margin. ”

Zhou Han was shocked, his eyes burst with fine light, and he solemnly arched his hand: "Mr. Hao, my name of Zhou Han is not called in vain, the scouts in the entire iron cavalry group, I want to recognize the second, no one dares to recognize the first." Leave. ”

After seeing Zhou Han leave, Mr. Hao half-closed and half-closed his eyes and began to calculate. Recently, he said that he had planned ranches and farms for Lei Qing, and he had already stepped on all the terrain and landforms in the entire Yehe Town's sphere of influence.

He also knew that if he followed Lei Qing, there would be a war in Yehe Town sooner or later. He had already paid attention to it in his heart, but Mr. Hao didn't expect that this battle would come so quickly.

As long as he comes two or three months late, Mr. Hao is sure that with the Black Flag Regiment himself, he can take the initiative to attack that large group of horse thieves.

All the terrain and landforms that were conducive to the war wandered in Mr. Hao's mind, eliminated them one by one, and compared them one by one. Familiar with the art of war, he is very aware of the current situation, once he falls into passivity, it will be a disaster for Yehe Town and the Black Flag Regiment.

The only glimmer of life is to completely take the initiative into your own hands. The enemy army is strong, and if you want to lead the opponent by the nose, you must not use brute force.

"General Cheng Xiao, I beg you to immediately divide more than a dozen troops, go to every village to do mobilization, and strive to gather most of the villagers here to set up camp within two days. Tell the villagers that they only need to bring valuable soft and some grain, and hide the rest on the spot. In the event of a horse thief loss, we at the Black Flag Regiment are responsible for compensation. Mr. Hao suddenly opened his eyes and pointed to a place on the map.

Cheng Xiao looked at it and was slightly stunned: "Mr. Hao, this is a branch of the Baiyun Mountain Range, and the lair of the golden unicorn tiger is nearby, I'm afraid it's not safe, right?"

"You can rest assured that we have thirty or forty thousand villagers in the entire Yehe Township. Once gathered, the popularity was full and the momentum was huge. I remember that this place was full of rocks, full of valleys, and deep pools of mountain springs, and it was an excellent place to hide from horse thieves, and it was dozens of miles away from the golden one-horned tiger. As long as the villagers don't provoke the golden one-horned tiger, with the surname of the demon beast, they won't provoke tens of thousands of people. He didn't say a word, the predation of demon beasts is usually based on food. Even if the golden one-horned tiger preys on humans, how many can it eat?

"Mr. Hao, why don't you gather all the villagers and fight to the death with the enemy. Among the tens of thousands, there are at least thousands of strong men and women, enough to kill horse thieves. Cheng Xiaosheng was cautious and asked suspiciously.

"They are villagers, not warriors. Mr. Hao frowned slightly and said, "If we rely on the villagers to defeat the thieves, what is the use of our Black Flag Regiment? What's more, according to your way, even if we defeat the enemy army? We will kill many, many villagers." We have lost the hearts of the people, and we have also lost the cornerstone of our Black Flag Regiment in Yehe Town. However, after you have organized and settled the villagers, you can call on them and see if you can organize a temporary armed force of several hundred people. First, they can maintain order and law and order, and second, they can be thrown into the battlefield as a last resort or with the victory in hand. ”

Cheng understood, so he went to implement it. Cheng Xiao also immediately took the order and left. He also knew that Mr. Hao's move was also powerful, and it was clumsy. Neutralizing the initiative of the enemy army, and making the enemy army fall into passivity.

Even if they wreak havoc in Yehe Town, how many days can they wreak havoc? Reinforcements from the Iron Cavalry Regiment will arrive at any time. For that large group of horse thieves, the most important thing they lacked was time.

However, it was quite difficult to arrange all the people to the assembly point within two days, they were not soldiers, and there were many old and weak women and children. Fortunately, now Lei Qing has a good prestige in Yehe Town, and the villagers are most afraid of a large number of horse thieves. It should not be difficult to encourage them to retreat.

Even if there are a small number of people who refuse to leave, as long as they find a good place to hide in the village or town, most of them will not be found by horse thieves.

Following Mr. Hao's order, one by one, the entire Yehe Town's sphere of influence began to rumble and activate.

At the same time, it was more than two hundred miles away from the town of Yehe. A large cavalry army was advancing at an unhurried pace towards the vicinity of Yeh Town.

The vulture Helian Bo and the poisonous eagle sect were surrounded by a burly and strong man, like a fierce beast. The upper half of the man's body was almost in a ** state, revealing bronzed skin, swollen muscles, and extremely explosive.

His eyes, in particular, were fierce and full of indescribable madness.
