Chapter 188: Lu Cheng led the troops

Chapter 188

"Uncle Cheng! Why don't you take me with you! I'm going with you! ”

Xiang Yu was wearing armor and followed behind Lu Cheng, constantly begging Lu Cheng to take him.

Lu Cheng walked down the hallway, turned around and entered a room, and quickly closed the door.

"Alas! This stinky boy! Lu Cheng shook his head and turned to put on his armor.

"Boom!"

However, the next moment, the door was kicked open by Xiang Yu angrily, which frightened Lu Cheng into staggering.

"Uncle Cheng! I'm going this time, you have to take me with you! ”

Xiang Yu clenched his fists, "I'm going to meet that elite cavalry and see how powerful they are." ”

"Presumptuous!" No matter how good Lu Cheng's temper was, he was also angry at this time.

Xiang Yu was also taken aback by the angry Lu Cheng, didn't dare to say more, and looked at Lu Cheng in a daze.

For Xiang Yu, this is the first time Lu Cheng has been angry with himself.

Lu Cheng said with a serious face: "Do you think the war is to play!" Say take you, take you! ”

"If it weren't for the protection of your boy's future career! I don't care if you go or not! ”

Xiang Yu was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word at all.

Lu Cheng took a deep breath, then sighed heavily.

"Alas! Go back, you can stay at home for me in this battle! If you dare to follow, you won't have to call me uncle in the future! ”

Looking at Lu Cheng's serious appearance, Xiang Yu didn't say a word, turned around and walked out.

Lu Cheng looked at Xiang Yu's back and shook his head.

This time, he really wanted to protect Xiang Yu's career, because he didn't dare to guarantee whether he could catch that elite horse.

If it can't be caught, it will make the entire Chu State lose face, and the generals who participated in this battle will have to bear the wrath of the entire Chu State.

Even if you catch it, it will only be a credit for the crime, and you will not receive much reward.

Do you really think those generals in the court are incompetent? Those people just saw through that, so they didn't want to take it.

Lu Cheng actually didn't want to take it, but the king of Chu pointed to himself and had to take over the matter.

Lu Cheng sighed continuously, and slowly draped the armor hanging high on his body.

When Lu Cheng came out of the room, he was already covered in armor.

The guards hurriedly ran over, "General, you're ready to go!" ”

"Let's go!" Lu Cheng held the sword at his waist and walked outside.

There is a camp in Yingdu outside the Yingdu city of Chu State, and 50,000 troops are stationed.

Lu Cheng naturally couldn't take away all the 50,000 troops, and Lu Cheng only transferred 20,000 soldiers and horses.

The remaining 30,000 soldiers and horses were actually drawn from the nearby Hanshou and other cities.

But in the face of this situation, Lu Cheng didn't know what to do.

Lu Cheng could only disperse a large number of scouts to find this elite cavalry that suddenly disappeared into the territory of Chu State.

At this time, the people of Chu have also spread.

It is even called a ghost ride, because this spirit rider only haunts at night, but disappears during the day, like a ghost.

After this rumor spread, it caused a huge panic among the people.

Even this rumor spread into the army, affecting the morale of the Chu army.

"I heard that the cavalry that attacked Hanshou was not a human, it was a ghost!"

"Really?"

"No, this ghost ride only goes out at night, disappears before dawn, and can't find any trace during the day, isn't that a ghost ride."

"No, it won't! I'm going to exterminate the Ghost Rider? Fighting ghosts? How does this work? ”

"Okay, okay, don't say it, let the above hear it, it's time to cure you for the crime of bewitching the people."

"I don't know how General Lu is going to lead us to win this ghost army?"

"Shut up! Those who dare to bewitch the public again! Military disposition! A small general came up and angrily reprimanded a few of the soldiers.

The soldiers hurriedly closed their mouths and bowed their heads one by one.

"Humph!" The little general snorted coldly, and then turned to leave.

These rumors in the army naturally also reached Lu Cheng's ears.

Lu Cheng knew that these rumors were difficult to contain, so he could only order the whole army not to discuss them.

If you want to dispel these rumors, you must find this elite horse!

"Any news from the scouts?" Lu Cheng asked in a deep voice with the military book in his hand.

The adjutant general arched his hand on the side and said: "Returning to the general, the three thousand scouts who have been dispersed, there is no news yet." ”

Lu Cheng frowned, put down the military book and walked outside the camp tent.

At this time, the sky was approaching dusk, and the edge of the sky had begun to turn yellow.

Standing at the door of the big tent, Lu Cheng's face was very gloomy.

Could it be that this is really a ghost soldier? No! What a bullshit ghost soldier! It's just pretending to be a ghost!

Soon after, the sky darkened.

The twinkling starry sky in the sky, the bright full moon, clothed the earth with a silver cloak.

Lu Cheng has been standing outside the big tent of the Chinese army, quietly looking outside the camp.

The court and the whole court thought that the next target of the elite cavalry must be Yingdu.

Therefore, the king of Chu ordered Lu Cheng to set up a large camp outside the city of Yingdu, so that he could support Yingdu at any time.

But Lu Cheng never thought so, after Hanshou was attacked, Yingdu must have been prepared.

Therefore, Lu Cheng believes that this elite horse will never come to Yingdu, and he has no role in Yingdu.

However, Lu Cheng couldn't be sure where the target of this elite cavalry was, and the scouts couldn't find anyone, so he could only sit and wait to be killed.

"Any news from the scouts?" Lu Cheng continued to ask.

The adjutant general shook his head helplessly, "General Hui, there is still no news, and the 10,000 cavalry seems to have disappeared out of thin air." ”

"Impossible! 10,000 cavalry, it is impossible to disappear out of thin air, it must be hidden somewhere! Lu Cheng said, turned around and went back to the camp.

Lu Cheng spread out a map, the map is very simple, but the mountains and rivers are still clearly marked.

Lu Cheng searched the map for a long time, but he couldn't find a possible place.

"General, the scouts have already searched for the place where 10,000 horses can camp, but there is still no trace." The lieutenant general said from the side.

Lu Cheng's brows never let go, and his fingers kept drawing on the map.

"If they hadn't set up camp anymore? It's not winter, and even if you don't set up camp, it won't make a difference. ”

"Won't camp?" The adjutant general was stunned, yes, if this elite cavalry is not camped?

Lu Cheng continued: "There is another point that people can't figure out, this cavalry goes deep into the hinterland of my Chu State, does not plunder, only attacks the military camp, how can their food and grass supply be solved?" ”

"Could it really be a ghost soldier!" The adjutant general's face turned white with fright.

Lu Cheng shook his head, "Ghost soldiers, that's impossible, one person and two riders, maybe the other rider is carrying grain and grass." ”

Lu Cheng's face changed a lot at this time, and he pointed to the mountains and forests on the map.

"Herald Scout! Look for it in the mountains and forests! ”

The adjutant general asked, "Does the general think that these 10,000 cavalry are hiding in the mountains and forests?" ”

Lu Cheng said with a smile: "This cavalry is not camped, and there is no news, it must be hidden in the sparsely populated mountains and forests." ”

The adjutant general reacted suddenly, "The general is wise!" I'm going to give the scout orders! ”

"But, General, will this cavalry attack Yingdu tonight?" The adjutant then asked.

"No, unless the commander of this 10,000 cavalry is a fool, but someone who dares to go deep into my Chu country can't be a fool!" Lu Cheng said confidently.
