Chapter 419: General after trimming
"General, let's rush, while the Hu people are asleep." Zhou Qi, who was dressed in military uniform, looked at the moonlight on the horizon and suggested to Zhao Kuo.
It turned out that as early as the third watch, Zhao Kuo had already led 30,000 elite cavalry troops to a small mountain less than two miles away from the Hu tribe.
Zhou Qi, who had been holding back for several days, immediately asked Zhao Kuo for his life! Zhao Kuo also looked at the moon hanging high in the sky, but he didn't agree directly, but asked, "What time is it?" ”
"General Huishang: It's time for the third watch." Li Mu on the side also looked up at the sky, and then replied.
"What do you think?" Zhao Kuo immediately looked at Li Mu and asked Li Mu's opinion as if he was more examined.
"The last general thinks that it is not appropriate to attack at this time." Li Mu quickly replied, ignoring Zhou Qi's answer on the side: "You can make the army repair in situ for an hour, and when the fourth watch day is to the fifth watch, when the sky will be bright, then rush and kill." ”
"Okay." Zhao Kuo was obviously quite satisfied with Li Mu's answer, nodded immediately, and said to Li Mu: "Go and pass the order." ”
"Yes." Seeing that the general agreed with his opinion, Li Mu was naturally overjoyed, and gave the order to leave.
looked at the tacit understanding between the general and Li Mu's question and answer. On the one hand, his suggestion was rejected by the general, and on the other hand, even more because Li Mu's suggestion was approved by the general, isn't this saying that he is inferior to Li Mu!
couldn't help but feel a little pimple in Zhou Qi's heart, how much he hoped to be able to unify his opinion with the general.
You must know that you have followed the general since the Changping battlefield, and you have not understood the general's intentions.
This made Zhou Qi even more anxious and angry. Of course, Zhou Qi naturally did not dare and would not question the general's decision.
Therefore, no matter if you are angry or resentful, you can only be silently angry with yourself and angry with yourself. What made Zhou Qi even more difficult to accept was that until now, he hadn't understood why he had to wait before attacking.
Obviously, the correct answer has been given to him by the general, but he still can't figure it out. There is nothing more frustrating than this, a temporary backwardness is not unacceptable for Zhou Qi, but he can't even figure out the answer, this gap ...... Zhao Kuo naturally understood Zhou Qi's thoughts now, and immediately said with half a little bit and half a sigh of relief: "If it is in terms of time, this is the third watch day, and the Hu people are all asleep, even the people standing guard are probably already in trouble at this time, just from this point of view, this is indeed the best time for a surprise attack." Zhou Qi, who heard the words, immediately looked at Zhao Kuo, and waited for Zhao Kuo's next words with burning eyes, as if to say: "And then?" Zhao Kuo naturally did not disappoint the anxious Zhou Qi, and then continued: "For generals, you must not only know astronomy and geography, but also know yourself and your opponent. At this time, the Hu people are indeed at a disadvantage, but the question is, what about our army itself? Our army has been running for a long time, since the evening eclipse, has been running for several hours in a row, the army has long been in trouble, whether it is a horse or a pawn are in urgent need of repair, if the attack is launched at this time, ten percent of the combat strength, maybe only fifty percent. This is a great disadvantage to our army. ”
"If it is postponed for an hour, when the sky will be clear, the Hu people may have woken up, but it is also the time to make the morning food, and it is also the time when their vigilance is the weakest, and the people who guard the post are even more anxious and waiting for the time to take over, and the center of their eyes is resting, although it is slightly weaker than the timing at this time, but it is not far behind. And once an hour to rest, our army could rest a little and eat a little dried meat and food, and when it was time to charge, not to mention recovering ten percent of its strength, at least seventy-seven, eighty-eight, so that our army's chances of victory increased sharply, and the losses could be reduced to a minimum. The most important thing is that only enough combat power can quickly resolve the battle, and at the same time ensure that the news is not lost. Zhao Kuo can be regarded as breaking it and crumpling it to explain to Zhou Qi, which is considered to be for this
The praise of the "old employees" for their former exploits is also to let Zhao Guo have one more general who can stand alone, after all, Zhao Guo in the future will almost foreseeably need to fight on multiple fronts, and one more general who can stand alone, Zhao Guo's chances of victory will be a few points higher.
Now that Zhao Guo can really stand alone, except for Lian Po and Tian Dan, who are already dying, there is only one Li Mu in the new generation, which is obviously not enough.
In particular, in Zhao Kuo's plan, the war with the Qin State is bound to be a long-term tug-of-war, and the growth of a new generation of generals is crucial.
Although the current Qin army is a little green, Zhao Kuo knows that in the coming days, the generals of the Qin State will spring up like mushrooms after a rain, and Zhao Kuo himself must not ignore it and must not guard against it.
Therefore, Xu Zhaowei, Zhou Qi, Sun Gu and other slightly capable young generals are all in the list of Zhao Kuo's future generals, and even General Xu Li, who has passed the prime of life, Zhao Kuo is also ready to be included in it, after all, Xu Li's loyalty is unmatched.
But the general who can stand alone, but it is not so easy to achieve, rolling in blood and fire three times is just the foundation, and the more important thing is to be in
Learning and summarizing in "suffering" can only grow in the end. Zhao Kuo will give him the opportunity. Of course, there can be one or two such explanations, but not three or four more times.
As for who will come out on top, it's up to them. When Zhou Qi heard this, he naturally understood the general's intention for his cultivation, and immediately hugged his fists and said, "Thank you General for solving your doubts." "Here, Zhao Kuo has just finished answering Zhou Qi's doubts, and Li Mu over there has already arranged to return, and then the army died down and began to repair behind the hill bag.
...... An hour passed quickly, and silently, the cavalry mounted again.
"In this battle, General Li Mu, you will command, and the heavy cavalry will not move." Zhao Kuo turned over and said lightly.
"Yes!" Li Mu immediately received the order.
"Order: Two roads on the left and right, 6,000 cavalry each, set off immediately, divide around the left and right, and encircle the enemy camp! Ten thousand horsemen in the middle of the road, ready to fight with the general, eight thousand in the back, slowly moving forward, thinking as a backup. Li Mu then said to the herald.
"Yes." Several heralds immediately received the order, and then Pegasus gave the order backwards. Suddenly, thousands of horsemen roared out from both sides of the hill, and although the bells of the war horses had been removed, the sound of the horses' hooves stomping on the ground still sounded firmly in everyone's hearts.
Seeing that the left and right roads had already set off, Li Mu said to Zhao Kuo: "The last general, please hit the middle road." ”
"Exactly." Zhao Kuo replied calmly.
"Yes." Li Mu clenched his fists to receive the order, then pulled out the sword in his waist and shouted: "Zhongjun, go with the general!! In the shouting, Li Mu had already rushed to the top of the hill by himself, and the Chinese army Daxu also followed closely behind Li Mu, facing the first rays of sunlight in the morning, the crimson Daxu seemed to be dyed with a layer of golden halo, sacred and solemn.
Under the sunshine, Li Mu, who was riding a jujube red horse, and was wearing black clothes and black armor, wielded the double-edged sword in his hand, which was heroic and domineering.
Even General Zhou Qi on the side couldn't help but show envious eyes.
"The reason why you can't ride out is to retain your strength. You can be a partial general, come forward and look at it. Zhao Kuo naturally saw the envy in Zhou Qi's eyes, and immediately said with a smile: "Look good, study hard, and the next one will be dispatched by you." ”
"Yes." When Zhou Qi heard this, his eyes lit up instantly, and he immediately pulled out his long knife, lightly clamped the horseman between his legs, and followed the cavalry around him, and then followed Li Mu.
Almost following in the footsteps of the sun, the cavalry of the Zhao State soon began to storm the Hu camp.
Then the acceleration of rushing down from the hill, Li Musuo's division in the middle quickly narrowed the distance between the left and right roads, and the winger cavalry in the middle was almost the cavalry next to the left and right roads.
This scene alone is enough to shock Zhou Qi, God knows how difficult it is to control like this! It was only at this time that Zhou Qi remembered what the general said to him before leaving: "Look at it and study hard!" The general's eyes are really still so vicious, just by virtue of his almost outrageous control over the army, Zhou Qi knows that he is far inferior to this person.
Looking at General Li Mu, who was galloping in front of him while giving orders to the left and right, for the first time, Zhou Qi felt deeply convinced.
What, right to Zhao Kuo? For generals, Zhou Qi has never had only five bodies to the ground! The new advance speed of the Zhao army at the beginning was not too fast, after all, there was still a considerable distance from the camp of the Hu people, if it accelerated fiercely at this time, I am afraid that when it reached the front of the village, the war horse would have no strength.
Move forward slowly, let the horses that have been resting for an hour warm up a little, and continue to accelerate after the distance is closer to within a mile, as for the final sprint, it is necessary to wait until the last two hundred steps.
Zhou Qi naturally understands these truths. But obviously, Li Mu in front of him wants more than that.
I saw that between galloping, Li Mu's eyes swept from left to right, and from right to left, and even behind himself, Li Mu glanced at it with his spare eyes.
And just at this glance, the big behind him was already shaking regularly. Immediately afterwards, the formation of the Zhao army began to slowly adjust, and the left and right roads began to expand outwards in a regular manner, like two outstretched arms, trying to hold the camp of the Hu people in front of them into their arms; The army in the middle has turned into a sharp arrow, smashing at the gate of the Hu people's camp.
A mile away, the big dragon beside Li Mu waved again, and the shock team of more than 22,000 people changed to the acceleration mode almost at the same time.
"Da da da......" The sound of horses' hooves has sounded violently under the urging of the master. At this time, the men of the grassland finally discovered the fact that the cavalry was coming, and they wanted to run away with their wives in a panic.
It's a pity that his mind is meaningless in the face of absolute strength, especially when he is facing Li Mu.
