Chapter 206: The "Great Gift" of Destroying the Huns

The two of them said awe-inspiringly: "Obey!" ”

Then Wei Chi looked at Meng Tian: "General Meng, are the horses ready?" ”

Meng Tian said embarrassedly: "Ready, although the number has reached five thousand, they are all old and weak and lame, this is already the best way to find the best, or the horse used as a suspect in the attack on Man." ”

Wei Chi nodded: "It's enough, just need to travel is already one or two times faster than walking." ”

Later, Wei Chi ordered Wang Jin to bring all the ammunition and supplies of the musketeers on his horse to reduce the burden of baggage. Although the musketeers learned to ride horses, after all, they were not professional cavalrymen, and the horses did not need to run rapidly, and they were completely able to afford it.

Ready to stop, Wei Chi waved his hand: "Let's go now!" ”

When Maudun began to attack Beihu, the Qin army also entered the Mobei grassland.

Along the way, the Qin army hid its tracks, trying to march through sparsely populated pastures that scouts explored.

But on the third day, Wu Jian was the first to notice that something was wrong.

When he was resting at night, Wu Jian found Wei Chi and said with a worried expression: "Captain of the Protectors, we deliberately concealed our tracks along the way, but now that we have passed half the distance, we have not encountered a tribe of more than 100 people!" I'm afraid something is wrong! ”

Wei Chi frowned, and responded, "Didn't the scouts find out either?" ”

Wu Jian nodded: "In order not to be discovered by the Huns, I ordered the scouts to only explore the surrounding twenty miles, but I didn't encounter a large tribe along the way." So I asked the scouts to expand their exploration, but there was still no large-scale tribal gathering, or the tribal tents, the few cattle and sheep, and the people were gone. ”

Wei Chi clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand and guessed: "Could it be that the Huns already know our whereabouts?" Left the tribe for refuge? ”

Wu Jian shook his head, and hesitated a little: "Maybe we have already hidden it well, and the scouts are also extremely careful, they shouldn't be discovered!" ”

Wei Chi raised his head and said: "Let the scouts take advantage of the night to expand the scope of exploration, no matter what, we must rush to the Wolf Court as soon as possible, as long as the Wolf Court is taken, everything will be easy to say!" ”

Wu Jian hugged his fists and went, leaving only Wang Jin and Wei Chi, who thought hard all night and didn't figure it out.

The next day, Wu Jian ordered someone to report that the scouts had explored a radius of 100 miles, but still did not see a large-scale tribe, only some unattended cattle and sheep roaming at will.

Wei Chi ran out of ideas, so he could only temporarily think that his whereabouts had been exposed, and those Huns had taken refuge, after all, there were only a few cattle and sheep left, and they might not have time to take them away.

He then ordered the march to speed up, in case the news reached the Wolf Court, and Mao Dun had plenty of time to prepare.

The 35,000 men of the Qin army galloped through the starry night, and it took another three days to reach a hundred miles south of the Wolf Court.

But when the scout returned, the three were dumbfounded.

Wei Chi listened to Wu Jian's narration in disbelief, and said with wide eyes: "You said that the fifty miles around the Wolf Court are all Huns and countless cattle and sheep? ”

Wu Jian smiled bitterly: "Captain of the Protectors, I felt the same incredulous as you after hearing the scout's report. So I touched it myself and looked at it from a distance with a telescope, which scared me! The mountains are full of Hun tents, and there are cattle and sheep grazing on the grassland everywhere, which is simply boundless! Ten miles away, the smell of human urine and horse manure alone made my eyes water! ”

Wang Jin was also dumbfounded, and said incredulously: "Doesn't that mean that the Huns, cattle and sheep that we haven't met along the way are all gathered here?" Could it be that they caught up with some festival of theirs? ”

When Wu Jian heard this, he shook his head and said, "Impossible, that density can never be a normal phenomenon, it seems to be ......"

Wu Jian suddenly woke up and said in a deep voice: "I know!" That density is like a wall of flesh! Not to mention the cavalry, even the foot soldiers could not easily pass through such a dense herd of livestock and crowds! That's to protect the Wolf Court! ”

Wei Chi was surprised by Wu Jian's acumen, but he was still a little incredulous: "Unless Mao Dun already knew that Great Qin was going to attack them, it would be impossible to gather so many people and livestock to the Wolf Court in a short period of time, could someone leak the news?" ”

Wang Jin shook his head, came to his senses, and proposed: "Captain of the Protector Army, General Wu, no matter how Mao Dun knows the news, I suggest attacking the Wolf Court immediately, otherwise when Mao Dun's real cavalry discovers the location of our garrison, I'm afraid we will be in danger." ”

Wu Jian frowned and said, "But how are we going to break through that flesh wall?" ”

Wei Chi glanced at Wang Jin and said solemnly: "You really personally commanded the musketeers to fight, are you sure?" ”

Wang Jin pondered for a while, and then sneered: "Captain of the Protectors, if it was just cavalry, I would be a little worried, but those livestock can help us!" ”

Wei Chi stared at Wang Jin and said, "What do you mean......"

Wang Jin nodded: "Firelight, smoke, loud noise!" ”

Wei Chi slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Okay, that's it!" ”

Then he ordered: "General Wu, General Wang's musketeers need to advance on foot and shoot gradually, so you need your cavalry to guard their flanks and contain the Hun cavalry that may appear between them finishing their shooting and recharging." ”

Although Wu Jian was a little hesitant, after all, he had never seen the power of firearms, but looking at the appearance of the two, he still nodded: "Obey!" ”

At this time, Hedusuo was listening to the report of the Tanqi in the big tent of the Wolf Court, and laughed and said: "Mao Dunshan is really a god, and the Qin people really also tore up the peace treaty to attack us." Now almost all the clansmen, cattle and sheep have gathered around the Wolf Court, but there are more than 30,000 people, see what they can do! ”

As soon as the words fell, another detective immediately reported: "General Hedu!" The Qin army has already pulled out of camp and began to advance towards the Wolf Court! But the speed is extremely slow, as if to wait for the accompanying footmen! ”

Hedu Suo is not as conceited as Hedu, after a little thought, he still made all preparations: "You immediately let the remaining five thousand cavalry go around the two wings from the rear of the Wolf Court, and once the Qin people are blocked in front of the livestock, they will immediately drive the livestock to rush towards the Qin army, and the cavalry will assist in the attack from the two wings." ”

Then he led people to climb the arrow tower and looked at the Qin army that was advancing towards the Wolf Court from a distance.

Hedusuo watched that it was getting late, and the Qin army had only walked the last fifty miles, but he had a faint sense of foreboding. Back then, the Qin army's iron cavalry created countless miracles by relying on the elusiveness and traveling 600 miles a day, but now they actually gave up their greatest advantage, as if the 5,000 foot soldiers who were guarded in the center were their main force.

Looking at the weapons carried by the foot soldiers, it is a broken stick, do they want to rely on these 5,000 broken sticks to defeat the Huns?

Shaking his head, Hedusuo reminded again: "You all go to the battalions to watch for yourself, be careful, this group of Qin troops is very weird, and I am always a little uneasy." ”

These people promoted by Mao Dun were not those fools who were also reused by Hedu, and they also felt the abnormality of the Qin army, and immediately took orders to the battalions.
