Chapter 297: A locust, fat
On the seventh day, the 50,000 troops sent by Zhao Yun drove to a place less than 100 miles away from the Mochou River, and Tang Linkun contacted them. Tang Linkun ordered them to march into the Yangxi Wasteland, which was less than twenty miles away from www.biquge.info the Mochou River, and stood by.
"That's the Big Stone Bridge. ”
The big yak pointed to the Mochou River in front of him and told Zhao Bangou, who was crawling beside him, that at noon, the field of vision was particularly open, and he could see the sentries of the black cavalry on the other side of the river, and there were sparse war horses, cattle and sheep gnawing grass on the grassland.
"Where?" Zhao Bangou wiped his eyes, what the hell, how can there be a stone bridge?
The big yak wiped the sweat on his face, blocking a few flying insects buzzing in front of him, and there was another itch in the crotch of his pants, he reached into his hand and scratched a few hard, the more he scratched, the more he scratched, the big yak pulled out his hand, he was stunned, and his hands were full of blood.
"Just below the surface of the water, see? where the white waves are raging. The idiom of the big yak is used too inappropriately, with slight ripples, and it is described as a stormy wave.
Zhao Bangou seemed to have an infection, his back suddenly itched uncomfortably, and his hands couldn't reach it, so he turned his back in pain, and kept rubbing on the ground like a wild boar.
"The son of a bitch, itching to death. Captain Niu, quick! help me scratch, it's tickling me. ”
Zhao Bangou was itching, forgetting that the big yak had been tied to the sky-piercing arrow and had been promoted three levels in a row, and yesterday's old name blurted out. Seeing that the big yak ignored it, Zhao Bangou thought that the big yak was too big after being promoted, so he had to roll to Mo Li's side for help.
In fact, the big yak is responsible at the moment, there is no distraction, his eyes as big as a wildebeest look straight ahead, he found that the so-called stone bridge opposite a high watchtower, there is a black cavalry standing upright on it, there is more than one watchtower, there is one along the river every two or three miles. It seems that the storm will not work during the day, so it can only wait until the evening.
"Obama, can this stone bridge pass by, how many Black Cavalry are on the other side?"
Mo Bao didn't see Obama next to him for a long time to answer, and when he turned his head, he saw that Obama's whole body was stripped naked, and a centurion under his hand was catching something on his back?
"What's wrong?
Mo Leopard crawled to Obama's side and saw the centurion remove a finger-long fat locust from his back, apparently sucking up enough blood.
"The leech was bitten when I crossed the river yesterday. ”
The big yak suddenly realized, looked up to the sky and untied his trouser belt, and the big bird with thick black hair was stung by three fat locusts, and everyone was busy taking off their clothes......
"I can pass, the water is only up to the knees, it has rained upstream in the past few days, it may be a little deeper, and the three empty bridge holes under the stone bridge during the dry season can be seen. On the opposite side is a large phalanx of black cavalry, about 15,000 people, the main general is called Jin Suo, the adopted son of General Jin Wu, the combat effectiveness of this phalanx should not be too strong. Listening to the captive's confession, Jin Wu turned out to be the hussar general of the Heavenly Court, and surrendered after being routed by the black cavalry near the third well. This large phalanx was mixed with many remnants of the Heavenly Court's defeated generals, and their morale was low......"
Obama's itch was cleaned and he replied methodically.
"What about the captives?"
Zhao Bangou cleaned up the locusts at the base of his thighs, and after tying his pants, he began to tie his trouser legs.
"I killed ......"
Obama didn't expect the five big and three thick Zhao Bangou to be so careful, so he had to say: "I can ask all the questions, I'm afraid that it will get in the way, so I'll ......."
"Whether the combat effectiveness of a phalanx is strong or weak, you can only know if you have fought it, General Jin put his adopted son on the front line, and I don't think the combat effectiveness of this phalanx is weak. ”
The big yak, who had fully turned on the combat mode, pondered for a moment and said: "It's easy to rush over, I think it's difficult to hold the big stone bridge, Lao Ou, I'll go to the other side with you tonight to explore, now the scout camp stays, and the other battalions retreat to the woods, camp on the spot, and don't light a fire to cook food!"
"Cattle Pioneer Officer, a charge has passed, and the brothers can't stand it anymore in the woods. Obama looked at the clear water and swallowed.
"Confused, General Tang asked the two of us to be responsible for opening up a beachhead for the large army, and after rushing over, we must hold it and cover the large army to cross the river. This is our first battle, and we must not be sloppy. ”
The big yak was the first to close his eyes, and a cockroach jumped on his cheek, was slapped by him, pinched and pinched to death, and then threw it into his mouth, without chewing, and swallowed it directly. Obama felt sick and turned sideways to force himself to close his eyes as well. Obama's martial arts are far inferior to the big yak, although the left and right vanguard officers are generally big, but on the battlefield, the sharp-toothed Obama can only listen to the big yak.
At dusk, groups of soldiers came to the river to bathe, and the sound of frolicking woke Obama to find the large yak like a sculpture, motionless looking ahead through the grass.
"Pioneer Officer Niu, do you want me to pass on the brothers?"
Obama was sticky and uncomfortable, and he looked forward to rushing across the other side as soon as possible, killing the black cavalry on the other side with three strikes and dividing five by two, or running away, taking a good shower and having a hot meal.
"Lao Ou, you said that after we rush over, which line is it better to build a defensive position? The terrain on the opposite bank is flat, if the black cavalry launches a group counterattack, we will be driven back to the river by the black cavalry to feed Wang Ba. The big yak let out a long sigh, pulled a weed, put it in its mouth and chewed it non-stop.
"Unless we can take the hillside in front of us, we will rely on that hillside to build fortifications with wagons. Obama put away his agitation and consulted with the big yak in earnest.
"No, that hillside is too far away from this stone bridge, even if it is occupied, this chopsticks are wide and a narrow strip of land where the large army will not be able to spread at all. It can only accommodate more than 10,000 riders at most. As soon as we attacked, the Black Cavalry was pressed down, and our main force across the river was not strong enough, so we became a piece of food in the mouth of the Black Cavalry. ”
It seems that the big yak has already considered capturing that hillside, and after careful consideration, this plan has been overturned.
"What then?" Obama pulled a handful of grass and put it in his mouth to chew.
"How many abandoned fortresses are there closest to this big stone bridge?" a bright light flashed in the big yak's big eyes.
"There are four or five, except for the ruin base of Gongshan Mountain, which is considered a brass waste base, which is relatively large. "There was a man in Obama's camp who had been a horse thief in the past, and he knew the long grass meadow well, and old O's once asked him to draw a sketch of the long grass meadow. I still have some impressions of this area.
"Xiaomi, call your brother rice, the cattle pioneer officer has something to ask him. Old Ou commanded behind him.
After a while, a fair-skinned young man quickly climbed to the side of the big yak.
"Pioneer Bull——! do you have something to look for me?"
"Have you been to those ruins, how far are you from here, how many cavalry can you hide?"
"I've been there, and the ruins of Gongshan are more than 300 miles away, and it is not a problem to hide 50,000 horsemen. The brass ruin is more than a hundred miles away from here, and the brass ruin has many mines and abandoned military camps, and when coins were minted in the past, the heavenly court has always been heavily guarded. Where can you hide from 500,000 or 600,000 cavalry, maybe more than that. ”
"You go down first!"
The big yak's eyes were obviously much darker, and he originally wanted to quietly lead 20,000 horsemen to the river, find a larger waste base to ambush, more than 100 miles, the distance is too far, and there is no strength to fight if he tosses back and forth. It still doesn't work...... We must come up with a way to complete the tasks assigned by General Tang to the letter.
As soon as the sun set, the woods suddenly became much darker, "Old Ou, you two people, let's go over there and explore again in the evening." (To be continued.) )
