Since ancient times, there have been tens of thousands of people marching and fighting, which can be regarded as a large-scale war, after all, such as the Battle of Chibi, the Battle of Guandu, and the Battle of 'Fei' Water, which are carried out with the strength of the whole country, and the number of people participating in hundreds of thousands or millions of super-scale wars is still a minority.

Generally speaking, even when the infantry reaches tens of thousands, these people gather together is very considerable, and there is a saying that 'there are tens of thousands of people, boundless' This is the case, then the dust and smoke that these people 'stir up' is also very large.

Compared with the infantry cavalry, it is even more powerful, and the effect of the war horse galloping tens of thousands of horseshoes trampling the earth is even more spectacular.

This time, the Qi army that suddenly arrived was not only numerous, but also all cavalry, and the mounts under these cavalry, plus the spare war horses, were tens of thousands, and the movement caused by such a large-scale cavalry team was very large.

Since receiving the report from the exploration horse, Shi Haiguang stood on the saddle with both hands, he blocked the sunlight with one hand and carefully looked at the smoke and dust in the distance, and from a distance, the yellow 'colored' dust on the horizon had covered a large area of the sky, stretching for more than ten miles between the east and west, I am afraid that there are more than thousands of Qi troops coming, and even tens of thousands of cavalry are possible.

Seeing this scene, Shi Haiguang immediately knew that something was wrong, and he said to Wang Ze anxiously: "Little Hou Ye is not good at big things, I'm afraid we have fallen for the 'yin' conspiracy of the Qi army!" This time, the grain transport team should be the 'lure' bait they have prepared for a long time, we have to evacuate quickly! ”

Seeing that the cavalry of the Qi army that had been killed was so large, Shi Haiguang anxiously urged Wang Ze that if he was caught up by the Qi army after a delay, he would not be able to protect Wang Ze's safety in this 'chaotic' army.

Shi Haiguang urged on the side, but Wang Ze was not in a hurry, he smiled and said: "This time, the Qi army was really burned by us hundreds of thousands of catties of grain, if it was really the 'yin' plot of the Qi army, where would they spend such a big capital." You must know that Liu Dharma is about to run out of food.

Besides, even the Qi army is not afraid of it, they are all well prepared in advance, and as a result, we have burned so much military rations, so the main general who leads this Qi army cavalry must also be an incompetent person, and we have nothing to fear about such an incompetent person! ”

Hearing that Wang Ze didn't care about Shi Haiguang's urgency, he said anxiously: "Little Marquis, people are just incompetent, but now they are leading thousands of cavalry to kill us, and we only have 1,500 people now!" ”

"Well, this army and horse are from Ande County, so plus a part of the Qi army that was led away by Brother Bofu and them before, then there are not many Qi troops in Ande County, at most about 30,000 people. It's almost the same as the team led by Jiang Chuan, Cao An, Ji Xiang and others! Hearing Shi Haiguang's urging, Wang Ze was not in a hurry at all, but secretly pondered in his heart.

Previously, when Wang Ze was in Qingzhou, he and the generals made strategic arrangements for the Qi army on the road of Liu Damo, which was only known to officers at the level of generals at that time, and even officers at the rank of captains like Ji Xiang only knew about it when they were making pre-war deployments in Qizhou.

And Shi Haiguang, as a cavalry captain under Ji Xiang, can't know these things yet, but according to the pre-war plan deployment, it's almost time to make a move on the Liudamo army in Ande County.

However, dealing with Liu Damo's army is a matter for Jiang Chuan and others, Wang Ze's main task now is to face the nearly 10,000 Qi cavalry who rushed over him, if he can't get rid of these cavalry, then everything is needless to say.

"Captain Shi, let's not care about these Qi troops, just keep going north, it won't be long before these Qi troops will definitely go back by themselves!" Wang Ze's eyes rolled a few times, and an idea came to mind in his mind.

Wang Ze's plan is very good, as long as Jiang Chuan, Cao An and others attack, then Liu Damo will inevitably ask for help everywhere, and the cavalry that was sent out before will inevitably be urgently called back, and then he will take the opportunity to turn around and give this Qi army a blow from behind.

Half an hour later, with the 'rumbling' sound of tens of thousands of horses' hooves trampling the earth, the Northern Qi cavalry of the brigade came here under the leadership of the Northern Qi general Wei Di'an, and there was nothing left on the ground except for the mess.

Looking at the hundreds of grain trucks that were burned all over the ground and the corpses of more than 300 Qi soldiers who were killed, the muscles and flesh on Di Di'an's face couldn't help but twitch, the grain truck in front of him had already been burned to the point that only some ashes remained, and it was obvious that he was too late.

Wang Ze didn't know that this time the grain convoy of the Qi army was really a 'lure' bait used to lure Wang Ze's army into being fooled, because of the previous ten days of attacks, Liu Damo's grain convoy was attacked one after another, although there was no food yet, but there was not much food in the army.

Although the food in the camp could last for three to five days, if he launched an attack on the rebels on the other side of the Yellow River, these stocks of grain would not be enough, and to ensure enough food, he would have to destroy the enemy troops who disturbed the grain routes.

In order to eliminate these small groups of enemy troops that infiltrated his back, Liu Damo came up with a plan after careful consideration, and he decided to 'get' a convoy of more than 200 vehicles to attract enemy troops, and prepared to secretly send a general with almost half of his 5,000 cavalry to secretly escort the escort.

For this kind of thing that robs military merit and does not have much risk, of course many generals under Liu Damo have to fight, and in the end, everyone has not fought for Wei Di'an, who has a background and background, who let the family have an uncle named Xi Digan.

As soon as the convoy escorting grain and grass came out of Bohai County, Di Dian kept up from afar, compared to the fast movement of the cavalry, the daily speed of the convoy transporting grain and grass can be described as turtle speed, and Di Dian could honestly follow for the first day, but the next day Di Dian was impatient.

In order to pass the time, he led more than 5,000 cavalry to the county town in front of the convoy by searching for the reason that there were no enemy troops lurking in the surrounding places, first to parade with great martial arts, and then to enjoy himself in the flattery of the county officials and heroes.

When Wang Ze attacked the convoy today, the Qi soldiers guarding the convoy lit the beacon fire as soon as possible, and according to the original plan, within a quarter of an hour of the attack on these grain trucks, Di Dian would lead his troops to the scene and deal a fatal blow to the enemy troops who attacked the grain trucks.

But I don't want to last night in the nearby county in order to tie up such a big backer, so I gave Di Anjin a stunning' beauty, this time Di Anke is a little high, tossing a night almost sprained his waist, today to be able to get up from the 'bed' is very good.

In this way, he got up a little later than usual, and it turned out that things were bad in this hour, and when the news came that the county soldiers on the city wall had lit a beacon fire twenty miles away, the lazy cavalrymen who had been stealing from their boss for several days were in a hurry to arrange the saddles of their horses.

When the army arrived an hour later, the Qi army that supervised the grain convoy was wiped out, and even the thousands of stone grain on the cart were burned, so that if there was no food to be delivered within three days, then the barracks of the Liudama army would be out of food.

Looking at the tragic situation in front of him, his face was a little dry from the burning flames and the ashes that were still carrying the heat, and with such a large pile of fire in the already hot weather, the back of his clothes was immediately soaked with sweat.

But this time, Di Di'an's heart was cold, he thought it was just a trip to go, and by the way, he picked up another great credit, but all this became a floating cloud.

Seeing that there was still an ember fire next to the ashes of the burning grain cart, Di Dian stomped fiercely, turned around and got on his horse and shouted to the cavalry under his command: "Brothers, the convoy of our army transporting grain and grass was attacked by rebellious thieves, and hundreds of brothers died here. I see that the thief is not far away, you will quickly catch up with me, and then the general will definitely be rewarded! ”

With the sound of 'rumbling' horses' hooves, thousands of cavalry stepped on the horseshoe footprints generated when Wang Ze and the others left, and chased them in the direction of their departure, and Wei Di'an judged that the other party had at most 2,000 cavalry according to the horses' hooves and footprints on the ground, which was more than one-third of the cavalry led by himself, so Wei Di'an and the generals under his command were also very relieved to pursue forward.

At first, he followed the horse's hoof prints and pursued Di Dian very smoothly, but after chasing for hundreds of miles, when he reached the gap between Bohai and Leling County, the other party's horse hoof footprints slowly disappeared, in other words, Di Dian was lost.

Just when Di Di was about to go crazy, suddenly a scout brought information about Ande County, and the rebellion on the other side of the Yellow River concentrated 40,000 troops to force the Yellow River under the cover of the opponent's naval army.

Because the opponent's naval ship is equipped with a weapon that will explode, once it is launched, it will emit a thunderous sound like thunder, and it will also spray out countless iron nails and iron slags, as long as one can kill hundreds of Qi soldiers.

In desperation, Liu Damo urgently sent an urgent military report to Di Di'an and two other cavalry generals who were sent out to pursue the enemy, asking them to return to help as soon as possible.

As soon as the cavalry generals under the command of Wei Di'an heard that the camp of Ande County was almost broken, they all turned their horses and prepared to go south at any time, giving a harsh lesson to the rebels who dared to attack their own camp.

I didn't think that as soon as I heard that the other party was so powerful, I didn't dare to go back at the moment, he also knew how powerful Liu Dharma was, and even Liu Damo couldn't deal with the enemy army, wouldn't he just deliver food to others when he went?

So Di Di'an's mind turned, and he said loudly: "There are nearly 40,000 troops under the command of the general, and the other two cavalry will also come back to help, but the general must need military food for battle, otherwise even if he wins for a while, he will be defeated because of lack of food!" ”

Seeing that many generals around him were nodding, the heart that Wei Di'an was carrying finally let go, and he said loudly: "In order to ensure that the generals and the brothers on the front line do not go hungry to fight, we must completely eliminate this rebellion that attacks the grain road!" ”

With a cheer, many Qi soldiers headed for Bohai County under the leadership of Di Di'an, leaving only the messenger who ran from the front line of Ande County to report the news and stayed alone on horseback.

In ancient times, the north of the Yellow River was flooded because of the low-lying terrain, and after so many years of reclamation, there are still many places where there are no human beings, and most of the people only form villages centered on the county and county seats.

Far from the county, there are large barren meadows, lakes and ponds, dense grasses and woods, and no one comes here on weekdays except for farmers who come here to graze cattle and sheep during the off-season, and it is a paradise for birds and other wild animals.

In a slightly larger reed 'swing', Wang Ze led a jujube red horse to the water's edge to wash it, this war horse is only nine years old this year, or the year before last when the caravan from the Khitan 'trade', this year Wang Ze returned to Qingzhou Wang Yong gave him this jujube red horse.

However, the current Wang Ze's height is only six feet (about one meter five), which is a lot shorter than the height of the war horse's shoulder height of one meter seven, which causes Wang Ze to step on the stepping stone when he gets on the horse. Because of this, this horse is very strong in terms of endurance and speed, and he is still very 'spirited' after a day of running.

The supple 'hair' brush dipped in water gently swept over the horse's body, the war horse's oily skin 'hair' was almost non-wet, and the jujube red horse sprayed from time to time, and rubbed its head on Wang Ze's body, looking very intimate.

As far as the eye can see, the area of the reeds is thousands of acres in size, and there is a lake of hundreds of acres wrapped in the middle, which makes people's mood particularly refreshing against the blue sky.

There are also dense miscellaneous forests outside the reeds, most of which are not mature, twisted and twisted, if the artist is there, he can think of making a root carving, wood carving or something, but in the eyes of the peasants, these trees can only be used as cattle pulls.

Now Wang Ze's large reed 'dang' is more than 100 miles away from Bohai County, although it is richer than Bohai County in other states and counties, but there is no shortage of places similar to the reed 'dang' in front of him.

Yesterday, under the leadership of Huang Rui, Gu Kai, Luo Bin and others, who were familiar with the local environment, Wang Ze and Shi Haiguang bypassed several barren grasslands, first used tree branches to eliminate their own horseshoe prints, and then sent hundreds of cavalry to divide into two ways to create some illusions.

After deceiving Di Dian and the 5,000 cavalry, Wang Ze took the 1,500 cavalry to quietly hide in this reed.

Because the reeds are close to the lake and are more humid and not suitable for rest, now the cavalry of more than 1,000 meters are hiding in a nearby miscellaneous forest, some of the cavalry are wiping their weapons, and some are holding a small brush to brush their beloved war horses 'hair'.

Seeing Wang Ze coming back with his war horse, Shi Haiguang immediately greeted him, and he said anxiously: "Little Marquis, just now the scouts came back with news that the Qi army that pursued us did not return to Ande County, and it seems that they went straight to Bohai County!" ”

Wang Ze was surprised: "Didn't Jiang Chuan attack according to the prior deployment?" ”
