Feng Liang couldn't help but ask: "Captain Xue, in case, the subordinates said that in case, in case the Ninth Legion doesn't go here, wouldn't we wait here for three days in vain." ”

Ding Kui stood up at this moment, picked up a wooden stick and pointed at the map, and said: "The position of the Ninth Army of Meng is very awkward now, the southeast and south are Lindi, and the second army is a tough battle to turn back; Helian Jade Wall's way to go; to the north is the hinterland of Nanmar Prefecture, which is a dead end for them; to the northeast, it can be directly inserted into Huashan County, but it is difficult to do anything with the Second Army of Lindi following them; to the east, yes, it is Wanggui City, they can only come here, in other words, this is their only way to live. ”

The leader of the fifth squadron looked at the map and said, "But they can also turn around and rush to the ground at any time." ”

"In terms of combat effectiveness, they do have this option, but I found that the marching speed of the Ninth Legion of Meng is much faster than that of the Second Legion of Lindi, and they can fly the kite of the Second Legion of Lindi and make a detour from Wangguicheng to the south. Ding Kui explained further.

"We can't stop the enemy from making a detour here. Feng Liang got to the point.

"That's right, it's true that a thousand people in our brigade can't stop the enemy army," Xue Chong took over, "but we can scare the enemy on the flank, and if we don't kill one or two hundred scouts, we can complete the task." When the three cavalry divisions of the Twentieth Army Corps came over, it would be difficult for the Ninth Army Corps of Meng to escape. ”

"Scare?" the leader of the 10th Squadron nodded violently, "Suddenly there is a regular army flag, and the enemy will take at least an hour or two to test it, at least they dare not walk near the city." ”

"Okay, that's it, the patrol area is divided into five parts, each squadron is responsible for half a day, once the enemy is found, immediately return to the camp and report to me. "Xue Chong arranged the divided area to ten squadrons.

Ding Kui's 1st Squadron was assigned to an area where enemy forces were most likely to occur.

It is a wilderness close to the main road, with low plants nearby, and the view is so wide that there is no possibility of ambush during the day.

Early in the morning, Ding Kui brought the first squadron of Qi Ming and Jialiang to inspect the area they were responsible for.

Halfway through the inspection, Ding Kui suddenly raised his head and looked into the sky for a while.

Ji Xing noticed Ding Kui's abnormality, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's Shin Hawk. Ding Kui's tone was affirmative, "Look at the direction should be flying to Wanggui City, it's not easy to say where you flew from, if it is Kaiwu City flying out, then there will be a situation in front soon." Attention squads! Maintain a good formation. ”

Kaiwu City was the turning point of Ding Kui's prediction of Meng's Ninth Army, and it was located fifty kilometers north of Wanggui City.

Ding Kui scooped up the spear from the weapon rack and put one hand behind his back, and Yin Hua and Ba Xi followed closely after seeing the habitual slapping of their horses.

Yin Hua urged Ma to take two more steps, and whispered in Ding Kui's ear, "Captain, is there a fight?"

"Well, that letter eagle flies extremely fast, eighty percent of it flew from Kaiwu City, I guess the Ninth Army of Meng is looting near Kaiwu City, and the scouts sent by the enemy's right flank are very likely to meet us, so get ready for battle." "Ding Kui encountered this situation for the first time, and he was not too sure of his speculation, so it was difficult to tell everyone clearly.

Ding Kui didn't have to worry for long, and smoke and dust rose in the distance to the north.

"Alert!" Ding Kui raised his spear.

"Alert!"

"Alert!"

"Alert!"

"Alert!"

......

Ding Kui pressed the team and walked slowly in the east-west direction, since he didn't know how many enemy troops there were, he had to be ready to retreat at any time.

Coincidentally, there were many choices that were originally placed in front of Hong Jin, and the Second Army Corps was one of them. When Hong Jin was determined to enter Tunchang County, raided Nanqiu County in the cracks, and rushed back to Xiahang Pass from the junction of the three counties of Tunchang, Nanqiu and Huashan, his scouts detected the three cavalry divisions of the 20th Army Corps that were hurrying towards him, and immediately frightened him.

Hong Jin thought that he was going to be caught by the two legions, so he immediately chose the retreat route drawn by Ding Kui for him, and when he ran to Kaiwu City, he found that there were not so many pursuers behind, and even the second army on the ground had not yet integrated well with the cavalry of the three divisions. You must know that there are 50,000 cavalry on the flank, so Hong Jin will not be able to sleep and eat, and the 2nd Army Corps on the ground has only lost one infantry division, and 20,000 cavalry can be drawn at any time.

"Report, report to the marshal, in the direction of Huashan County, a new banner of the enemy army was discovered, the enemy 211th Division. "Tan Ma Fei reported to Hong Jin.

The scouts of the 9th Regiment of the Mongol State discovered the 1st Brigade of the 211th Division.

"The 211th Division, where did Shaodian come from? It's not good, this is very likely to be their reinforcements. Hong Jin under Kaiwu City became nervous, "Only give them half an hour to loot, and then immediately march to the southeast after half an hour!"

#####

There were about 500 scouts in cyan uniforms, like samurai and archers on horseback, and Ding Kui could see the enemy army to the north of them. With a quick calculation of the strength of friend and foe in his mind, he pulled the reins and drove his horse towards the north.

"Captain Ding, why don't we hurry back and report to Captain Xue?" Sun Lie was anxious.

Ding Kui didn't care about his second squad leader, but turned back to the whole squadron and asked: "Brothers, there are about 500 scum of the Meng Kingdom in front, and they are covering more scum in the back to rob the property of our people and burn the houses of our people, let me ask, can you bear it?"

"I can't bear it!" replied half of the members of the 1st Squadron, with Ba Xi shouting particularly hard.

"Those scum in front of me look like a rabble, I can kill dozens of them alone, are you afraid of them?" Ding Kui tilted his head and pointed at the Meng army scout.

"Don't be afraid!" this time more people answered, and the squad leaders seemed to understand, and they took the lead in rushing to answer.

"Our first squadron is the elite of the 21st Legion, and now I want to lead you to kill these scum, do you dare to go up?"

"Dare!" almost all of them roared and waved their spears.

"Each squad is ready to ride and accelerate forward, the target is those scum who are all dressed in green!" Ding Kui clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and the mount began to accelerate and rush forward, and the members of the first squad quickly formed a riding formation behind him.

The corners of Ao Yu's eyes jumped, but the military uniform on his body was yellow now, and he knew that Ding Kui was not targeting him. He gritted his teeth, held high the banner of the first squadron, and rode his horse closely behind the cavalry of the first squadron.

The Meng army scouts on the opposite side discovered Ding Kui's squadron at the same time, but to their great surprise, a squadron in front of them did not escape, and actually set up a position and rushed towards them.
