Chapter 676: Investigation
"Send a message to the nobles who have come out of this city.
Let them send some elite squads to scout along the path we have surrounded this time.
As soon as you find anyone suspicious, send someone to report it to me.
Remember, don't act rashly
Chances are, these are the people we're looking for to trade with the caravan. ”
And hearing the remarks of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui at this moment, Yue Nu immediately nodded.
It is to convey the order to the army.
It didn't take long for a few cavalry captains in the rear crowd to be divided.
There were quite a few of them, two or three hundred
The men, on horseback, overtook the front of the ranks.
Rushing towards the depths of the desert, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I hope these people can gain something, otherwise once we start a frontal battle, our losses are estimated to be difficult to match those of the horse gang."
It can be inferred from this that it is not that the ambition of others will destroy one's own prestige.
Because until now, the forward soldiers sent by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty have asked these soldiers to spy on the enemy's pace, and they have not even seen a member of the horse gang.
This kind of elusive hiding method made Emperor Yang Guang of Sui feel a little uneasy.
After all, the caravan is not comparable to ordinary bandits.
In this vast desert, they can make their own world.
This proves that they are truly powerful people.
So far, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty has only learned about the caravan based on the previous experience of some families in the city and General Li Jing.
They are just a bunch of bandits on horseback, who are tireless and do not know whether they live or die.
But what exactly does that cave look like, and what is the layout inside?
But he didn't know anything
Just when Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was in deep thought and didn't know what method to use to open the situation.
All of a sudden
Sensing an indescribable smell wafting through the air, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Looking up at the surroundings of the Gobi Desert, I looked over
But all he saw was desolation all around, and he couldn't even see the houses.
Only a few weeds that are half a man tall have re-entrenched in some shady places in the desert.
Here I plan to live
But something surprising happened.
I only see it in the area as far as the eye can see.
In the distance, figures on horses appeared
These people are very sparsely scattered.
Looking at it from this angle, these people waved their horsewhips, as if to provoke them
"It's so damning"
A little anger appeared on Yue Nuqiao's face, and she waved her horsewhip to teach these people a lesson.
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty raised his hand and stopped the cavalry that was about to surge in the rear.
"These people, where do they come from
Are they members of the caravan?"
The moon slave frowned.
"Master, we've been on for half a day, but we haven't seen anyone else
Now these people suddenly appeared, they must be spies from the Ma Gang"
Emperor Yang Guang of Sui smiled faintly.
"The caravan aren't so stupid yet
They know for now that we've laid siege to them.
However, in a short period of time, it was difficult for them to come up with a countermeasure
The two of us have a similar number of people, and we almost know the details of them
And they only judge us on a macro level.
They won't expose their cavalry to us so easily."
Hearing Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty's words, some captains in the army nodded slightly.
"What General Xiao said is extremely true, so what should we do now"
Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty took a horsewhip and pointed at a personal soldier behind a school captain.
"You, get closer to them to investigate, a certain family has a hunch, we will gain a lot"
Looking at the captain's own soldiers, he broke through the wind and sand and rushed to the figure over there.
At this moment, the expressions on the faces of the many soldiers and horses of the Sui Dynasty who were behind Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty changed.
"What does the general think
Could it be that he also thinks that the members of the caravan will be respectful to us
Sending this brother out at this time is not exactly falling into the trap of these people"
One of the lieutenants shook his head slightly.
"It's too early to draw conclusions at this point, and besides, you should know that the general knows no less about these caravan members than you do at the moment
The general once led a caravan of less than a thousand people, and easily killed the horse gang force of several thousand people
Therefore, we must trust the general at this time, and we must not complain in private."
When the cavalryman heard this, the expression on his face changed slightly.
In fact, in his heart, Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of Sui, was not worthy of being their general at all
It's just that General Li Jing trusted Emperor Yang Guang of Sui very much, so they had to obey.
And now, in this lonely and desolate steppe desert, those who try to provoke them will inevitably be members of the caravan.
However, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was unguarded, and even sent his elite cavalry to test it.
In his opinion, this is tantamount to sending meat directly to the wolf's mouth
However, things did come as unexpected as he could.
The cavalry, who had just run to the top of the high slope, sprinted back at a faster pace.
"Tell General Xiao that those people are not spies sent by the Ma Gang.
They were merchants from the neighborhood, and some of them, I had brought with me a large amount of grain and grass at this time.
There were even drinks etc."
Hearing the words of this cavalryman, everyone present showed surprised expressions.
"What caravan has already started a war with the border, and there are still people who give them supplies"
Several lieutenants were furious.
But Emperor Yang Guang of Sui showed a hint of a smile.
"Now that they've been reduced to the same thing as the caravan
Why are they asking us for help at this time?"
The other party suddenly exposed himself in front of everyone, which is not a very rational thing.
The sentinel who had gone to investigate replied.
"They were driven out by the caravan, and they heard that it was the caravan who had robbed them of their food, and there was only some wine left.
And they didn't get paid anything, and even lost a few people for it.
So, they used us as a frontier army
That's why they turned to us to see how they were doing at this time.
I think we want to use our hands to teach these caravan members some lessons. ”
Emperor Yang Guang of Sui smiled slightly when he heard this.
The rest of the crowd looked surprised
These merchants pursued profits, and in times of war they also provided such financing for their opponents.
didn't expect to be directly hacked by the other party, not to mention that they didn't think of this.
I am afraid that even these merchants, who came to bring food and wine, did not expect such a thing at all.
And Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, inevitably smiled when he heard this.
