This time he brought more than 1,000 people, including more than 600 cavalrymen, more than 100 people at night, and the rest were all firecrackers. They would travel lightly in vacated baggage vehicles, so everyone would only bring a day's worth of dry food and water.

And this time, Liu Haojia took away all the officers who could be taken away, leaving only a few family members to preside over the defense of the camp. Anyway, they don't need to do anything at this time, just hold the camp!

The team had not traveled far before the news came back one after another, leading them all the way north. And the night did not bring a piece of news, except for the two dead people at the outpost that released the fireworks at the beginning, only one died in each of the other two places that were broken through by the Mongol cavalry, and the bodies have been recovered.

In this way, the number of people killed in this battle became nine. Among them, the night does not collect nearly half, which shows how risky this profession is!

Not to mention that Liu Haojia led people to chase after him, not to mention that the three of Hatch rushed back with their heads down. At first, it was still night, so they had to run in small steps. After running for a while, the sky was also dawn after leaving the battlefield, and then the three teams of people and horses were completely combined into one team and began to gallop wildly!

And Hatch also sent someone to be responsible for sweeping the tail in the back and covering some traces. But what he commanded was not serious, and the people below him were even less serious!

In their impression, the steppe is a Mongolian man! Those Han people who were not under the blessing of the Immortal Heaven could not even find their way into the grassland, let alone find the location of their tribe! Plus they just suffered a big defeat and their morale is low. Therefore, the Mongols who were responsible for cleaning up the traces did not care, and dealt with things hastily.

And the road traveled by thousands of war horses is so well covered! So although Hatch arranged it well, in fact, in those old nights, the traces they left along the way were as conspicuous as road signs!

At the same time, the worst thing is that Hatch is overconfident, he only leaves a trace of someone to clean up, but not a person to break off. So he was overconfident, and he was easily bitten by a few old nights!

When they rode their horses for a while, they saw that the horses were already sweating, and they also felt that they were out of the battlefield, so they slowed down and hurried back. Along the way, the three of them didn't say anything, just talked without a match. are thinking about how they can make up for such a big loss and so many dead and injured children?

The three of them finally reached an agreement, when the Ming people who bought them arrived, they must let them send the things truthfully, otherwise they won't want to go to the grassland in the future, and they will kill them all! Moreover, the three of them also decided to keep their plans to expand to the periphery unchanged and continue to form alliances against the surrounding enemies.

Due to their low morale, they naturally wasted a lot of time on the way back. By the time they reached Hutchi's tribe, it was already completely dark. The people of the tribe were glad to hear that the leader had returned, and they all came to meet him with torches.

But when I saw their appearance, I knew that they had lost the battle! Especially those whose family members died in the war are even more sad and cry loudly! Losing a man on the steppe is equivalent to the destruction of a family!.

Hatch had no choice but to kill cattle and sheep to entertain the people of the other two tribes. As a result, a meal was eaten by several people, and there was no atmosphere. So everyone rested after eating.

Just when Hutchi and the others had just fallen asleep, Liu Haojia had already rushed to a place seven or eight miles away. One old man came running over and said, "Commander, tell the brothers to put out the torches, we are very close to them!"

Liu Haojia waved his hand to signal everyone to execute, and then asked, "How do you know? Are you sure?"

The night is not closed, hehe smiled and said, "Sure! Dashuai, didn't you smell the smell of cattle and sheep in the wind? It smells like this only when a large herd of cattle and sheep comes together, and only a complete tribe has enough of them at this size."

Liu Haojia said loudly when he heard this, "Now you go and lead the way! Find a place where there are many rewards!"

The old night did not accept the words, and his spirits were lifted, and he agreed to ride the horse away. He knew that Liu Haojia said that it was a real reward, so he immediately met with a few old nights

took out all the skills of his body, took the young night and did not collect the sentinel in front, and at the same time sent people to take turns to report.

There is even an old night that does not close, and actually takes out a dead wind lamp that covers three sides, and raises it high, leading the army forward! It can be seen that these old nights can live to this age outside the side wall, and they all have some real skills!

Everyone walked in the dark for a long time, and Liu Haojia felt as if they had gone around in a small circle. Just when he was in doubt, it was the previous Ye Bu Hui who ran back to the two people, and when they got closer, an old Ye Bu Hui said eagerly, "Da Shuai, you can't go forward anymore! There must be a large herd of cattle and sheep in front of you, so there must be shepherd dogs.1 If you alarm those dogs, you will miss the news!"

Liu Haojia said, "If you get as far forward as possible, how far can you go?"

Lao Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "At most, it's a mile away. Then you can see the Mongolian *** spiritualist lamp!"

The spirit lamp in the mouth of the old night does not refer to a high pole erected in the center of the Mongolian tribal camp, on which an oil lamp is hung that burns all night. This lamp is used to show the way to the people who get up at night or are on duty at night to tend to the horses.

It is difficult to discern the direction in the grassland at night, because everywhere is more or less the same. So getting lost at night is not a pleasure! If there is no such lamp, once the people who work at night get lost, they will not know where they will go, so the lamp that is not taken care of at night is called the spirit lamp.

When Liu Haojia heard this, he ordered, "Let all the infantry get off the car and prepare to attack in formation!" The cavalry slowly pressed up from the left and right flanks, and let them bring more torches! As soon as they are spotted, the cavalry will be the first to attack, followed by the infantry."

Liu Haojia said his entire tactics, and how to arrange the rest is a matter for Liu Ren, Guo Zhankui and others. The two of them, along with the officers, carried out the order very neatly. In a short time, a wide but thin infantry column appeared in the moonlight of the steppe, with two teams of cavalry on the left and right flanks, shaped like a chain bullet in flight!

When the team was arranged, Liu Haojia had already inquired about it at night, and when they could see the spirit lantern, it was a mile or two away from the camp. Because the lights are not big, they can't shine far, and the main thing is to take care of the people in the camp.
