Chapter 774: Huyukou

The name of Huyukou place is like a tiger's head with a big mouth of blood, the position of the tiger's mouth is facing south, it is in the shape of a trumpet, and the peaks that stand on both sides are as sharp as tiger teeth.

A not wide gallop road, stretching from Huyukou to the north, winding.

The vegetation on the mountain is quite luxuriant, the tall oak tree is like the umbrella cover that opens, endlessly, the whole mountain is a piece of lush, in this scorching summer day like fire, stay at the top of the Huyukou, you can't feel the heat at all, some are just refreshing and cool.

However, Wang Jun did not come here to cool off, he stood under a tall oak tree in military uniform, and looked south with a pergola in his hand, with a serious expression.

The south is the direction of Gaodu, there is a flat river, Wang Jun stands tall, naturally he can see far, but on the straight gallop road, there is no figure to be seen, the scorching afternoon sun, it seems to be able to bake the loess paved gallop road, at this time, naturally no one is willing to rush against the scorching sun.

After making sure that no one would pass in a short time, Wang Jun withdrew his gaze and looked around, the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion were standing in the shade of the trees to rest, they only arrived here this morning, because there had been no fighting, the expressions of the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion were much more relaxed, some people exchanged heads and ears, whispered, and some closed their eyes and recuperated, not smiling.

Wang Jun frowned, although he said that Zhang Chi was good at using soldiers, but the big war was imminent, it was definitely not a good thing to be so lax, he shouted in a deep voice: "Cheer me up, the enemy army is ready to arrive at any time, send orders to all departments, always stay on guard, and enter the battle at any time!" ”

At the sound of an order, the soldiers of the Changshui battalion stood up in unison and immediately entered a state of readiness for battle.

Wang Jun has led this army for several years, although Wang Jun is gentle and kind in peacetime, but when it comes to wartime, he is a man of his word, and he is forbidden, and people who are familiar with Wang Jun's temper know that he can talk to Wang Jun in peacetime, you can be more casual, even if you occasionally make a joke, it doesn't matter, Wang Jun is very easy-going, no shelf.

But when it comes to wartime, Wang Jun's words are an iron order, and no one is allowed to disobey him, and those who try to challenge Wang Jun's bottom line are now at least three feet high, so Wang Jun's order is solemn, and there is no violation.

The Changshui Battalion had just received Cao Liang's order and arrived at Huyukou after a night of rapid marching, and for the soldiers of the Changshui Battalion, what they knew was just a normal military movement, and as for what kind of opponent they were going to face, they naturally did not know.

And Wang Jun knew better that Cao Liang would transfer all six battalions of the Bingzhou Army to Huyukou at once, which must be a big move, which means that Cao Liang will fight a decisive battle with Sima Jun here.

The Changshui battalion was tasked with blocking reinforcements, and they were stationed on the east mountain of Huyukou, and the shooting battalion on the west mountain was far away from them.

Between the East Mountain and the West Mountain is a canyon, the official road from Gaodu to Huguan is located in the middle, in fact, the east and west are very close to the West Mountain, if you count from the foot of the mountain, the two are only half a mile apart, standing on the East Mountain, you can even see the grass and trees on the West Mountain.

But despite this, Wang Jun still couldn't see half a figure on the opposite mountain, if he hadn't known in advance that the Shooting Battalion had arrived at the West Mountain one step ahead of them, Wang Jun even wondered if Du Yu was late.

It can be seen that the concealment of the shooting battalion is very good, and the slightest trace is not revealed, which is also Cao Liang's request to them, to fight an ambush, the first thing is to ambush well, if the location of the ambush is recognized by the enemy, this battle has already been a failure before it is fought.

The lush vegetation of Huyukou provides them with an excellent place to hide, almost without camouflage, and the 20,000 horses are hiding in the middle, and they can't even see the slightest clue.

However, despite this, Wang Jun still ordered the Changshui camp to do a good job of concealment, prohibiting anyone from making loud noises, walking around at will, prohibiting the use of fireworks, and not doing anything that is not conducive to ambush.

Fortunately, the Changshui Battalion was well-trained and carried out Wang Jun's orders quite resolutely, and more than 10,000 people in the Changshui Battalion hid quietly among the mountains and forests.

According to the information provided by Cao Liang, Sima Yi personally led the army from Gaodu, all the way to Huguan, and Huyukou is the only pass from Gaodu to Huguan, Sima Jun will definitely not be able to bypass it.

It stands to reason that at noon at this time, it is the time when the scorching sun is scorching, and most pedestrians and business travelers will choose to rest during this period, and then wait for the weather to be cool when the sun sets.

But Wang Jun knew that this was just an ordinary person's idea, as Sima Yi, who commanded the three armies, in his eyes, there was only a goal, and he would not consider the weather factor at all, and the scorching sun would never shake his plan to march rapidly.

If calculated according to the distance and speed, Sima Jun should arrive at Huyukou at sunset at the latest, but thinking that this is the army led by Sima Yi, a war maniac who often doubles the way, so Wang Jun believes that sunset is the lowest estimate, and it is likely that Sima Jun will arrive in advance, so the Changshui battalion can not have any slack, after they arrive at Huyukou, they must enter the state of imminent battle at the first time, and always be ready to meet the arrival of battle.

Sure enough, it was not out of Wang Jun's expectations, just after the time arrived, the sun had just shifted to the west, and from a distance, I saw countless dust and smoke stirring up on the galloping road, and it was faintly visible that the flag was waving and crowded.

Because Wang Jun is standing on a high place, and now the weather is exceptionally fine, you can see the situation dozens of miles away at a glance, and from a distance, the small black dot is like an ant, crawling on the straight galloping road.

At the forefront of the team was the cavalry, and the speed of the cavalry was extremely fast, but in order to cooperate with the march of the infantry, the cavalry was not in a state of galloping at full speed, but retracted and ran, maintaining a medium-speed forward posture.

Rao is like this, the distance of dozens of miles is fleeting, those small black dots become more and more clear, and the cavalry of the Sima army formed an eight-way column, running quickly along the gallop road, and soon approached Huyukou.

Wang Jun's face was cold, just looking at Sima Jun's team that looked like a long dragon without seeing the end, he knew that this would be a vicious battle, but he had no fear at all, and ordered all the soldiers of the Changshui battalion to enter the battle state while hiding, ready to attack at any time.
