The group left from Qinzhou, in order to avoid being discovered by the Mongols, they deliberately acted in the middle of the night, all the way to avoid Dingxi Village, Sanyang Village and other cottages, and after running for a few days, they also arrived at Fuqiang City.

After resting in this city for a while, Yuan Ye did not rush north, but led his men to continue the westward expedition.

"General Yuan, why don't we attack Pingliang Mansion and run westward instead?" Zhou Cheng was puzzled, so after finding Yuan Ye, he opened his mouth and asked.

He thought that the purpose of this trip was to spare Jingzhou so that he could attack Pingliang Mansion from behind, but seeing Yuan Ye's actions at the moment, it was not the case, so he had this doubt.

Yuan Ye smiled and asked, "Let me ask you, with our troops, can we defeat the main Mongol force?"

"Can't!"

Zhou Cheng only needed to think about it a little and was discouraged.

Seven thousand light cavalry, even though they were still equipped with more than a thousand god-breaking crossbows, but in the face of the Mongolian cavalry of as many as 100,000, it was still difficult to fight.

"Yes, no. After all, there are immortals like Ali Buge and Boyan guarding there, as well as many masters such as Hedan, and with our strength, we can't fight at all!" Yuan Ye sighed: "If you fight against them, it's just an egg hitting a stone." ”

Even Xiao Feng can only form a state of confrontation, with their means, how can they defeat it?

Zhou Cheng was a little unwilling, and asked again: "Then why did the lord send us here?"

Since their purpose was not to annihilate the Mongols, what was the purpose of this operation?

"Of course, it's to cut off the logistics of the party. ”

Yuan Ye laughed loudly and replied: "As long as we cut off the other party's logistics and let the other party have no food, then no matter how powerful they are, it will be useless after all! So I came here to be able to destroy their logistics and food routes! And this is exactly what the lord wants us to do." ”

Sending cavalry to disrupt the enemy's logistical supply is a consistent method on the battlefield, and in modern warfare, there are also actions by Germany to disrupt British logistical supply by wolf packs.

Xiao Feng has been in war for a long time and is very familiar with this point, so he ordered Yuan Ye to lead 7,000 cavalry into Mongolia, and then be able to completely disrupt the opponent's interior and cut off its logistics and supplies.

At that time, as long as Mongolia's internal logistics are cut off, the Red Phoenix Army can annihilate the Mongolian army in one fell swoop.

"So that's the case?" Zhou Cheng understood and understood the purpose of Yuan Ye's trip.

At this moment, Yuan Ye suddenly closed his mouth, pressed his palm slightly on him, and then pointed to the road in the distance.

Seeing this thing, Zhou Cheng immediately closed his mouth, and following Yuan Ye's gaze, Zhou Cheng immediately noticed that on the desert in the distance, thousands of carriages were crushing the dust, all the way in the direction of his side.

The carriages were so heavy that the roads were so thick that they were full of things, including coats sewn from animal skins, freshly forged armor, and sharp weapons such as guns and firearms, but the most numerous were cattle and sheep, which were the staple food of the nomads.

"Is it the other team?"

With a tightness in his heart, Yuan Ye was secretly surprised.

With such a huge fleet, I don't know how many people can be satisfied.

And it is really terrifying that Mongolia can recruit so many people at one time.

Around the convoy, there were thousands of cavalry, these cavalry had no armor, and only swords, swords, and halberds in their hands, rather than more powerful guns, obviously had little status in Mongolia, and should be a ragtag army in charge of some hard labor, specializing in the tiring work of escorting food.

They were scattered around the carriage, up to several miles away, so that they could detect danger in time and prepare the convoy for defense.

Obviously, they were the Mongol army guarding the convoy.

"Everybody be quiet and don't let the other find out. Yuan Ye's heart tightened, and he hurriedly ordered.

"Shall I understand?"

Seeing such a posture for the first time, Zhou Cheng was also frightened enough, he quickly shrank up and hid his body behind the mountain rock.

He joined the Red Phoenix Army not far away, he had only done the simplest patrol and escort work before, but he was not very familiar with this real battlefield, and now when he felt this solemn atmosphere, he felt that the cold air in his brain rose sharply, and he had no power to resist at all.

The rest of the soldiers were also silent, lest they not pay attention and let the walking convoy discover the movement.

"General Yuan, how should we act?"

Looking sideways at Yuan Ye, Zhou Cheng asked.

Yuan Ye shook his head, his eyes continued to stare at the road, and said, "Continue to observe, don't do it without my order!"

At this moment, on the other side of the road, there were suddenly bursts of smoke and dust, and the sound of horses' hooves came from the smoke, and I don't know what the way it came from.

Disturbed by this, the Mongolian cavalry was not only frightened, and they all grabbed their war horses under their crotches, and after a horn sounded, they urged their war horses one after another, and all of them converged in front of the convoy, blocking the entire convoy in the center.

Looking at this posture, Zhou Cheng was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

This place is a three-way intersection, one is through Qinchuan and leads from Qinchuan to Fengxiang Mansion, but this place is basically uninhabited because Qinchuan is occupied by the Chifeng Army, and the other is to Pingliang Mansion, and the sudden appearance of smoke and dust also appeared from this place.

When the smoke cleared, a group of cavalry appeared in front of the convoy.

These cavalrymen were dressed in armor and held old-fashioned guns, which were obviously much stronger than the cavalry guarding the convoy. Of course, it is still too far behind the seven thousand light cavalry in Yuan Ye's hands.

After all, the armor on this group of guys is messy, in addition to the armor made in Mongolia, there are even armor cast by the Jin Dynasty and Western Xia in the past, and there are even some obviously inferior products, which are not the same at all, they are exactly the same as bandits.

"Who are they?"

Zhou Cheng was puzzled, and he didn't know what the situation was in front of him.

"I don't know. Yuan Ye shook his head, and he couldn't figure out the situation in front of him, so he had to say, "Let's continue to observe." ”

When the Mongol cavalry found that someone was obstructing, they were also furious, and they took out their weapons and rushed towards the group of guys who suddenly appeared.

It's just that the weapons in their hands are too backward, and they are no match for this cavalry that suddenly appeared, and after the two sides fought for about half an hour, the guarding cavalry was annihilated, and the huge convoy also fell into the hands of this cavalry.

"General Yuan, should we do it?" Zhou Cheng was a little anxious when he saw that the other party was about to leave.

Yuan Ye complained: "Of course. It's just that the other party's origin is unknown, so you need to be careful, do you know?"
