Utis rode like a horse, and led 18,000 old Parthian troops to gallop thousands of miles in three days, straight to the southern mountains.

The Parthian border is somewhat like a horizontal gourd-shaped, narrow from east to west, but relatively narrow from north to south.

Utis marched with all his might, and did not dare to delay for a moment, except for the necessary rest, and arrived at the Aih Pass in the south in time.

Sunset.

Seeing that the Aihe Pass was in sight, Utis's slightly gloomy eyes softened slightly.

Seeing that he had slowed down, the adjutant general couldn't help but ask, "Why is the commander so anxious to rush to the Aihe Pass, and if he runs down, I'm afraid even I won't be able to resist." ”

"In the future, the title of commander should not be called again, whether it is in front of people or behind people.

There can only be one commander, and that is Huo Quai, the king of the Han army. ”

Utis said: "You don't understand the key to our use of troops in the south this time.

We had been ordered to clear out the rout into the southern mountains, and we did not use all our strength at that time.

Huo Shuai sent me to lead the troops south this time, and I suddenly realized that if the fighter plane was delayed, the consequences would be very serious. ”

Adjutant General Pang De was a fierce man with a strong body, and he was puzzled: "I don't understand what the general means?" ”

Utis sighed: "I thought that the rout army that fled into the southern mountains was, after all, my old Parthian army, so I didn't chase it with all my might.

But Huo Shuai asked about Egypt in front of me.

Then I was asked to lead the army south to assist the Han army, and I realized that not only did Egypt come up from the south, but also that our Parthian troops who hid in the southern mountains could not find a way to survive and were willing to be used by Egypt.

They want to join the Egyptians on the southern front, and then tear a hole in my Parthian territory. ”

"Think about it, what would happen if the Egyptian army and our Parthian army were to attack the Fertile Crescent from the Kante Plain and the Soya Corridor, respectively?

Not only will there be a big chaos in Parthia, but the soldiers and horses killed by Egypt will have a direct impact on the main force of the Han army that is confronting Rome. ”

Adjutant Pound finally understood, and gasped:

"The Egyptians are so bold, if they really come up from the Sawa Corridor, I'm afraid it will affect the entire battle situation."

At worst, it could cut off the Han army's support for Seleucus and Macedonia from behind, and feed the two countries together to be eaten by the Romans.

The main force of the confrontation between the Han army and Rome is afraid that it will also suffer heavy losses. ”

Utis: "That's right, and all this is directly related to the fact that we didn't wipe out all the routs in the southern mountains before.

When Huo Shuai settles the accounts together, guess what will happen to us? ”

Pound's face turned slightly pale, and he reached out and made a motion to wipe his neck.

Utis nodded and said, "So Huo Shuai asked me to come to the southern battlefield, the meaning couldn't be more obvious."

If we can arrive in time and play well, then he can not pursue the previous matter, otherwise there will be no need to keep this Parthian army under my command. ”

Pound's face turned even paler: "It turns out that whether we can arrive in time is related to the outcome of the battle!" ”

Utis shook his head: "It's wrong, since Huo Shuai has long seen that the situation is like this, let us assist the Han army, which means that the Han army has come in advance."

The Egyptian army and the rout claimed to be secretive, but some things did not need evidence, or even information to support them, and Huo Shuai could see through their intentions with his judgment alone.

So even if we don't come, the battle won't be dangerous, but we'll be dangerous. ”

Pound subconsciously swallowed his saliva: "Then we ......"

"The rout had to be in tandem with the Egyptians, and together they were looking for death. Then kill it! This time there will be no mercy, either the army will die or we will die! ”

As he spoke, there were already Han army scouts who had arrived in advance at the Aihe Pass in front of him, riding to meet him.

"Admiral Utis!"

When the other party approached, he said, "The order from above says that the general will bring people to support. Let's go, we have laid an ambush, and the rout of the southern mountains will most likely pass through here.

The soldiers and horses brought by the general can be ambushed. ”

Two quarters of an hour later, on a peak in the Aih Pass, Utis saw Zhao Anji and Fuluzhi.

These two fierce generals under Huo Quai's command, according to their ranks, are barely on par with Utis's lieutenant generals.

But people are descendants, and they are descendants, which is not a degree of intimacy at all.

Utis didn't dare to slack off, and stepped forward with the etiquette of the same level and said: "How to fight next, I will listen to the arrangement of the two." ”

Zhao Anji said: "You don't have to listen to our arrangement, our prince said that there is no doubt about employing people." If you can come before the battle starts, it means that you don't have two hearts, and you can lead the troops yourself.

As long as he identifies the target and ambushes those routs with all his might, the prince will not be to blame in the past.

Now that you are here, the two of us will leave later, to run against the Egyptian army. ”

Utis almost reached out to wipe a cold sweat.

Sure enough, if he neglects a little this time, he will definitely go back as a result of his head falling to the ground.

The men and horses brought by Utis hurried to rest and recuperate, and he and Zhao Anji and the Fulu branch discussed a little, and then decided on their own strategies for using troops.

Utis thought for a moment and said:

"I want to ask, this Aihe Pass is not the only passage from the southern mountains to the Soya Promenade, and the terrain is dangerous, very suitable for ambushes, the other party will not be able to see it?

Why was the prince sure that the rout would pass through here to join the Egyptians? ”

Zhao Anji smiled, remembering that when Huo Qubing arranged tasks for him, he actually marked several routes on the marching map. Then he weighed them and finally pointed out two paths, and prepared to let him and Fulu Zhi one by one, and was sure that the other party would choose one of the two routes to march.

But before Huo Quzhi gave the order, he glanced thoughtfully at Song Ran on the side and asked, "Which of these two roads do you think the enemy will take?" ”

Huo Quzhi's judgment on the route was based on his military ability.

But ask Song Ran, it's a matter of luck plus nine, it all depends on feeling.

Song Ran glanced at the map, and casually pointed to the Aihe Pass in the two routes selected by Huo Quzhi.

Huo Quzhi smiled dumbly, and said to Zhao Anji: "Don't divide into two places, go to Aihe Pass." ”

Therefore, the choice of this Aihe Pass certainly has the military judgment of Huo Quzhi Zhuoyue. But the main thing is that the lucky plus nine is a metaphysical operation, and there is no reason to talk about it at all.

Zhao Anji's thoughts rose and fell, and he responded to Utis: "I can't tell, the prince just gave such an order, we just have to do it." ”

Ctesiphon, the main hall of the royal palace.

Huo Quzhi stretched out his hand and pressed it, and the space in front of him slowly presented a picture.

It was as if the void had become transparent, allowing him to observe a place from a distance.

And this ability is exactly what he is doing with the practice of a soldier and a half-saint, and he is watching the fire from the other side to promote the new promotion to become the best policy.

After this military strategy magic power reached the best strategy, the effect produced was somewhat unexpected by Huo Quzhi.

Thousands of miles are like in front of you.

The so-called watching the fire from the other side, used for long-distance observation and control of the battle situation, is very suitable, it is simply clairvoyant.

And Huo Quai's attention is the ambush battle that Utis, Zhao Anji, and the Fulu branch are about to launch.

Bai Nanyu sat sideways behind him, her charming peach blossom eyes were moving, and she also looked surprised, and followed the bystanders.

The sun sets.

On the edge of the mountains in southern Parthia, an army was advancing rapidly.

Rusas, who had a fierce aura and a short brown beard, was originally a Parthian general.

Now he is the leader of a rout that has fled into the southern mountains.

For several months, he was surrounded and suppressed by the soldiers and horses led by the Han army and Utis, and the losses under his command continued to increase, the equipment was damaged and could not be replenished, the defeated soldiers swallowed and killed each other, and there was a shortage of food and other difficulties.

Struggling for a long time on the line of life and death, and finally living until now, Rursas is full of anger.

The soldiers and horses he led gradually lost their restraint and became indiscriminate, killing people at every turn.

Sometimes, just for a bite of food, companions will fight each other for their lives.

When the Egyptians, with the promise of the Romans, secretly infiltrated the southern mountains, offered to cooperate with them, and brought them food from the southeast corner of the southern mountains, the direction of Egypt, Rushas did not hesitate to agree to the proposal to cooperate with the Egyptians.

At this time, he was leading the team along the plains on the edge of the southern mountains as agreed, and quickly advanced to the Soya Promenade in front.

After nightfall, Rursas ordered the party to be suspended.

He looked out over the plain ahead.

As planned, we crossed the valleys on the flanks of the plain and continued on to join forces with the Egyptians, collect provisions, and change horses and weapons.

Then the two sides will be separated, and Ursas will be responsible for leading his men, storming the interior of Parthia, fighting guerrillas everywhere, and destroying the rear of the Han army.

The Egyptians went straight north to surprise the flanks of the Han army and cooperate with the Romans.

But at this moment, Rursas looked at the plains and valleys ahead, and he always felt a little uneasy.

During this time, he lived like a lost dog, and every day he was very suspicious, and muttered: "In the past half a month, we have received food from the Egyptians twice.

There are already many people who know that we have contacts with Egypt, not to mention the Han army, but Utis, our former commander, we all know his ability to use troops.

There are quite a few people in our team who are old members of Otis.

If someone rebels, send him a message, and the plains and valleys ahead are very suitable for ambushes and will be our burial place. ”

His two lieutenants were also the leaders of the rout who survived after the rout, swallowed each other up, and finally survived.

The two felt that what Rursas said made sense: "We do have a lot of old Utiis under our command. ”

Rursas looked ahead, and the more he looked, the more he felt that there was a problem: "We changed course and took another way to join the Egyptians. ”

The two lieutenants looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Even Rusas itself is a temporary adjustment of the route, so there is no possibility of leaking secrets in advance.

This is the safest way.

The trio happily made the decision that it would be safer to choose another route.

They decided to go forty miles more to the Aih Pass.

The three of them immediately led the army and took advantage of the darkness to advance in the direction of the Aih Pass.

"This plan is brilliant, change the route temporarily, even if there are spies in the team, it will not be too late to spread the news."

Said the two adjutant generals.

Rursas sneered: "After tonight, we have received food and weapons, and we will fight back to Parthia, and then there will be Rome in front of us, Egypt in the back, and we will cooperate internally."

Even if the Han army has the ability to reach the sky, it will also be defeated, which can be regarded as avenging our revenge for being chased by the Han army. ”

The two lieutenants nodded in unison.

They were chased by the Han army and lost their armor, they couldn't eat enough and didn't have enough clothes in the mountains, and they all had the intention of eating human flesh, which was really a deep hatred in the sea of blood!

As the night deepened, the procession came to the Aihe Pass.

The dark and dreary mountain pass ahead, the terrain is long and narrow, and the mountains on both sides are undulating.

Cross the pass and continue westward to join the Egyptian army.

On the top of the mountain, Utis, who used military tactics to hide his tracks, looked at the soldiers and horses of Rursas that appeared at the bottom of the mountain, and was dumbfounded, it was really here!

Utis had a breathtaking feeling.

That's all right!

At the foot of the mountain, the scouts in the rout briefly probed the surrounding area and found no problems.

Rulsas waved his hand, this was the route he personally chose and decided on the impromptu basis, how could there be a problem: "Pass the pass at full speed, go!" He rushed into the mountain pass first.

Behind him was an army of troops.

A loud thunderous sound suddenly sounded.

The side wall of the mountain above collapsed, and countless boulders rolled down.

The mountain pass at both ends was blocked by falling rocks in the loud noise, and the soldiers who entered the mountain pass first were suddenly stuck in the middle of the mountains on both sides.

There is no way forward.

The moment Rursas heard the loud noise, the blood on his face faded and he was numb with fright.

It's impossible, how is it possible, I temporarily adjusted the route, I wasn't sure to take this road before, and the Han army had an ambush here?

He was drenched in chill.

The two generals around him also never expected it.

The soldiers and horses they led were even more panicked.

In this kind of terrain, they are ambushed, and they don't even have a chance to resist.

Begin to pour the pre-prepared oil from above.

When a torch is thrown down from the mountain, it falls into the narrow path under the mountain pass.

In an instant, the fire was raging, and the world was purgatory.

Rulsas and other generals still wanted to escape along the mountain wall, and when they started their cultivation and rushed up the mountain, a figure appeared at the top of the mountain wall.

None other than Utis.

The former commander of Parthia, with a thin and gloomy face and a solemn look in his eyes.

Wisps of divine power patterns and symbols appeared on the surface of his armor, and a spear derived from the divine power symbol was drawn from the armor.

Suddenly, the spear was thrown and flashed.

Rusas, who rushed up along the mountain wall, was broken through the defense by the swift and ferocious spear, pierced through the chest, and hung nailed to the mountain wall amid screams.

Blood flowed down the cliff face.

Otis's subordinates slaughtered down the cliff like a tidal wave and launched an offensive against the other routs outside the mountain pass.

The Great War is on the rise.

Suddenly, Utis was aware of it, took out a concentric lotus leaf, and Huo Quai's order: "Intensify the use of troops, and then go west, support Fulu Zhi and Zhao Anji, and annihilate Egypt." ”

Huo Shuai knows the progress of my use of troops...... Otis thought slightly in his heart, and replied: "Utis received the order, and he will do his best to destroy the enemy." After that, he personally led the troops to rush down the cliff.

Ctesiphon.

Huo Quzhi looked out the window, tonight's war had just begun, and the Romans had already launched an offensive.

The Egyptian army was about to be attacked by Zhao Anji and the Fulu branch.

In front of Huo Quai, the pictures of watching the fire from the other side alternated, looking at another battlefield.
