Chapter 236: Preparation for the First Battle

The daytime sun in the Western Regions is very scorching, especially around noon, it makes people feel that they are being fried on the fire, in order to, although the rush time is in a hurry, but Gao Pet still chooses the marching mode of day and night, one can avoid being attacked at night because of rest, and the other is to avoid the scorching sun, so as not to be burned out physically and mentally.

For several days, it was day and night, speeding on the desert Gobi. The caravans have largely disappeared from the trade routes, and it seems that the war has spread.

The distance from Pei Shanguo is getting closer and closer, and the high pet who has been on the road all night raised his head and opened the night sky that was still dark, and dawn was approaching, so he said, "Brother Wu, let's go down and rest in place for a while, and then set off at dawn."

Wu Xu heartily gave up his hands to give the order, and Gao Chong dismounted and rested with Shaoyuan. In fact, Shaoyuan is also choking enough, this group of people's riding skills are so perverted, such an intensity of rushing, really didn't choke Shaoyuan to death. It was finally possible to rest, but Shaoyuan tied up his horse with a smoke, and then lay on the ground panting.

Gao Pet drank water and asked, "Shaoyuan, are you so tired?"

Shaoyuan said weakly, "Tired, why aren't you tired?"

Gao Zhong smiled, "Do you have to let you see it to practice? And in Chaisang, you are also teaching children literacy in the classroom, how can I have time to come out, I will naturally have a lot of time to practice."

Shao Yuan also asked, "Why did you rest before dawn today? Didn't you wait until an hour before noon to rest a few days ago?"

Gao Pet stood up, and said while giving the horse water, "Think about the day, it is already close to the border of Pei Shanguo, and the Huns are probably close, so the time to rest and rush is still to take apart a little to ensure physical strength, otherwise it is so tiring to rush to the road, and suddenly the Huns come to attack, it will be a big trouble."

A group of people took advantage of the last night wind and began to rest, but Gao Zhong, as the main general, did not have the slightest idea of resting, and a trace of uneasiness in his heart kept hindering his rest. Gao Pet, who couldn't sleep, could only sit on the stone and watch the West still dark.

The west wind blowing slowly wafted a fishy smell that seemed to be absent, and the already sleepy Gao Pet woke up immediately like a shark attracted by the smell of blood. Then he turned around and shouted, "All men put on their armor and get ready to fight." As soon as the well-trained soldiers heard the roar of their general, they did not hesitate at all, and turned over on their horses in armor in one go, but fortunately, Shaoyuan was troublesome with armor and had been sleeping in his clothes, so he could keep up with the speed at which they got on their horses.

After resting for more than half an hour, the spirit of the army has improved significantly, Gao Zhong nodded, put on a mask, led the horse up, and ran forward "Follow me"

More than 800 cavalrymen, with their second horses, began to gallop, forming a shadow in the night. After galloping for a while, seven or eight horses came running in front of him. Gao Zhong raised his spear and shouted, "Ready!"

However, as the two sides got closer and closer, the seven or eight horsemen who came were all old and weak women and children, not some Hun cavalry, but it was obviously unusual to meet these people here at this time. Gao Chong pressed down the weapons of his subordinates and shouted angrily in Chinese, "Stop, this is the Han army", and the translator on the side immediately translated Gao Chong's words.

The seven or eight horsemen and horses really stopped, after the two sides looked at each other for a while, it was more of them who confirmed the identity of Gao Pet through their eyes, and after they confirmed, they jumped off the horse one after another, ran to Gao Pet and cried and knelt, kowtowed, and then chattered in their mouths and didn't know what to say. As he spoke, he pointed to something behind him that seemed to be something extraordinary.

Gao Zhong frowned and saw that the clothes on their bodies were very close to the Han family's clothes, but they were speaking Fanbang language, and at first glance, they looked like the people of Pei Shanguo, so he asked, "Translator, what did he say?"

The interpreter listened for a while, and suddenly said nervously, "General, they are Pei Shanguo, they said that there are Huns in front, I don't know the number, they will burn and loot as soon as they enter the village, they are residents who have escaped."

Gao Chong immediately frowned, "Follow them, lead the way immediately, we will kill back immediately, quickly", and then turned around and shouted, "The Huns are ahead, the whole army will kill with me!"

And those people heard the idea that Gao Zhong was going to kill them back, and immediately jumped on his horse and ran ahead to show Gao Zhong and them.

The group climbed over a dirt slope and came to a high place, and saw a small river valley, and within the small river valley was a small village, the small village had no lights, but when they looked at it in the dark, they could faintly see a few places where the ashes were still glowing red and red. Gao Zhong asked the interpreter, "Ask them, where are all the people in their village?

So the translator chattered and talked in circles, and the people chattered and talked in circles, and then the translator said, "General, they said they didn't know either."

"I don't know?" Gao Pet looked pained, and then rolled his eyes, "Tie it up, find someone to watch"

Shaoyuan looked at Gao Pet's sudden change of attitude with a strange expression, completely unclear, "Ah Pet, why did you suddenly tie them up?"

Gao Zhong looked at the small village and said, "At the moment, the village is dark and black, I can't see clearly, and for a while I'm really not sure if these people lured us in."

Gao Chong retreated down the dirt slope and said to Wu Xu, "Brother Wu, you stay here, I will sneak in with more than 100 people in a while, this village is not big, there are not many people to hide, if there is fraud, I will withdraw as much as possible, if you see fireworks, then you will immediately lead people to rush to kill."

Wu Xu gave his hand "Subordinates obey orders, go and prepare immediately"

Gao Chong also jumped off his horse and looked at Shao Yuan, who was at a loss, "So, would you like to go to that village with General Ben?"

Shaoyuan shook his head helplessly, "My biggest role should be to accompany you through such a journey, right?"

Ready to go, Shao Yuan didn't expect his first battle to be such a heavy battle, he couldn't help but let out a chuckle, Gao Zhong wondered and asked, "Shaoyuan, what are you laughing at?"

Shaoyuan adjusted his armor, "I didn't expect my first formation, it was actually in this form, maybe it was in the dark, and I couldn't get rid of the rivers and lakes anywhere."

Gao Zhong shook his head with a serious face, "No, Lu Jianjun, you are wrong, if it is a duel between the rivers and lakes, it is just a happy grudge, there may be a moment of mercy, the prison army is from the northern Xinjiang, but when you see the Huns, don't forget that the people in the border are suffering from the Huns"

Being reminded by Gao Chong, Shao Yuan suddenly clenched the Gray Frost Blade, "What General Gao said is very true, this prison army is ready"

"Go with me!"
