Chapter Twenty-Six: The Wind Passes Through
That's his territory!
Feng Luo looked at the terrain model on the ground that was beginning to take shape, his heart was surging, and his heart was full of pride!
I used to have the idea of escaping war, but now I have some desire to fight for my homeland, and even, if I have the opportunity, to open up a larger land.
A small piece of land is actually a staggered mix of forces. To the north belonged to Spark, to the east was the territory of Stick, and to the east was the domain of two other nobles. To the west is the Dayin Mountain, where he had fled.
"What's over here?" Feng Luo pointed to the side of the guide, and the captain who placed the model scattered two handfuls of dust at random over there, without carefully placing them.
"My lord, this is the Southern Wilderness, and there are poisonous gases and swamps everywhere. The team leader replied.
"Is there no state management and no one to live in?" Feng Luo asked, he had read the terms of the Southern Wilderness in the book, but did not go into detail.
"In the southern wilderness, few people go in, and occasionally explorers, families, and sects enter. I have never heard of a country, but there are people, and it is said that they look strange, and they resemble wild beasts, and we call them barbarians. The squad leader replied respectfully.
"Barbarians, are they different from us?" Feng Luo suddenly became interested.
"My lord, I have seen a barbarian head brought by an expedition, with blue skin, eyes that are better than ours, and pointed ears. Hax, who rarely spoke, interjected.
"The blue one, if you have a chance, you must check it out. Feng Luo's curiosity was aroused. It's a pity that the enemy is at the moment, so I put things aside for the time being and study how to deal with them.
Feng Luo asked the wounded scout to come over and asked, "Where did you encounter the enemy soldiers?"
The soldier said the name of a place, and Feng Luo's face was dazed, he didn't know where it was. It was only then that he realized that he was in Davao and completely blind. Some of the big cities still know a thing or two, but they don't know the names of the small towns at all.
Stin relieved Feng Luo's embarrassment, poked a stick in the sand, and said, "In this place, by the Sitos River, there are multiple forks. ”
Feng Luo nodded gratefully at Sting, and then asked, "Which way did you evacuate?"
The soldier named several places, and Stin pointed them out one by one in the sand. The person sent out as a scout may not have a high level of cultivation, but he must be clever and have a good memory. Where Spark's territory is, scouts are to memorize all the place names and routes.
After the dots are drawn, they are connected with branches to form an escape route. In order to get the news as quickly as possible, the scouts took the shortest path.
Not only Feng Luo frowned, but even Sting became very serious. The scout didn't know what was happening, and stepped aside.
The soldier knew the place where the Fengluo Territory was located, but in his impression, it was uninhabited and a wasteland. So there is no need to hide, it's a big deal to transfer, just come over.
It is not wrong to send the letter back as soon as possible, but exposing the base camp is tantamount to throwing a naked girl to a dozen horny strong men. The next step will be a very serious situation, and a decision will have to be made.
"How many people are there?" Feng Luo asked, staring at the soldier.
The soldier was furious, realized the problem, and said, "There are about ten people, and there should be chasing me." But I'm familiar with the path, and I've escaped, and I shouldn't have noticed that I'm here. ”
But everyone knows that the traces left behind, experienced scouts are easy to spot. Perhaps by now, the enemy has followed the trail and probed this way.
"Maybe it's not that bad, it's the spies who are coming, and it's a big deal to move everyone. Stin comforted the depressed Feng Luo.
Feng Luo shook his head vigorously, trying his best to put away the bitterness on his face. "Everywhere you go? There will be war everywhere but the south. He said weakly.
Evading the pursuers, Feng Luo didn't do it. Dayin Mountain ran for hundreds of miles, and the route was crooked, about a thousand miles. At that time, in order to live, all the women and children gritted their teeth and finally persevered.
Just like running for a long time, you can keep running without stopping. But once you stop to rest, it's hard to run hard. Everyone has settled down, and if they leave, the shock in their hearts will not be able to bear it.
"Have you rested enough, let's go and kill the spies!" Feng Luo slapped his thigh and stood up.
Everyone had no opinion, waiting for him to issue a detailed order. After all, they are soldiers, and obedience to orders has become instinctive. It's also a good time for them to make a difference.
The enemy army has just entered Davao Country, and they are not familiar with the terrain and have few people. Taking advantage of the fact that he has a firm foothold now, although he can't decide the trend of the battle, he can take the lead in a small area, and then slowly expand.
Even if there are only 200 people, you have to play as much role as possible. It was this kind of thought that made Feng Luo determined to attack!
Tell the women and children to take care of the house at home, and barbecue the meat and wait for everyone to come back. At the same time, five hussars were left nearby in case the spies broke in.
Their biggest advantage now is that they are familiar with the terrain, and before they set off, they set a few points. Split up and rush to different locations. Each of them is responsible for an area to strike and drive away spies who enter the area.
Feng Luo brought five real subordinates, as well as a seasoned scout, to guide the way. His route was the most dangerous, close to the direction in which the opposing army's march was going.
"Let's go!"
At the sound of an order, everyone rushed to the battlefield to fuel the impending storm.
The army brought by Feng Luo was temporarily changed. In addition to the heavy cavalry, each heavy cavalry unit is composed of light cavalry and infantry. He also equipped the infantry with horses and equipment, transforming them into light cavalry.
Before coming, Feng Luo asked Spark for equipment. Because his numbers are too small to be superior in frontal combat, the infantry will certainly not be useful. Only the cavalry, which comes and goes like the wind, can make a difference.
Makeshift cavalry, dressed in light armor made of cooked cowhide, armed with medium-length swords and thin bows. At first glance the standard bandit dress. There was no way, those infantry were used to fighting on the ground, so they could only lighten the burden on their bodies.
Fortunately, every soldier could ride a horse and shoot arrows. According to Feng Luo's intentions, the combat units were mainly heavy cavalry, and light cavalry was divided into two sides. Converted cavalry, responsible for long-range fire at the beginning stage, as well as for the delay charge.
With such a group of soldiers, the only way to fight is to attack!
Keep attacking, flee as soon as you succeed, and never fall in love with war. Falling into the dilemma of defense is even more taboo. To stop, it means to die. Even if you don't die, there will be comrades who will die.
"Run, like the wind blows away the dust, kill the enemy!" Feng Luo said.
