Chapter 1246: Passing by
The sky was drizzling, and Chang Yu led the black wolf battalion straight to the southeast, because there were three thousand thieves blocking the road ten miles to the south, Chang Yu didn't want to clash with it head-on, so it was best to bypass it from the side.
Walk only three or four miles, smell the sound of fighting, fixed eyes to see in the distance in the rain curtain in the rain curtain more than ten horses in the fire for a moment can not distinguish the enemy and me, on the way to the horse to see two horses rushing to see two horses coming, Lao Jiu shouted the order and there are archers who want to shoot with bows.
Chang Yu raised his hand to stop it, his own people.
Sure enough, the two horses ran to more than ten meters away, and everyone saw clearly, it turned out to be an officer and soldier scout, two people were covered in blood, and one of them was hit by an arrow in the ribs: "Save us, there are thieves and spies behind" In fact, there is no need for them to say, Chang Yu has seen that there are more than ten horsemen chasing after him, but suddenly he saw the black wolf battalion stop and stop in the distance to observe.
Scouts, scouts, and nights, in fact, they are the scouts of later generations, the most dangerous type of troops, but they are also the most vital and indispensable existence for marching and fighting, Chang Yu especially cares about the accuracy and timeliness of intelligence, because it is related to his next decision-making, and the reason why he can strategize is inseparable from the hard work of the scouts.
"We were ordered to reconnoiter the surroundings of Wuhu, and when we returned to the city, we were ambushed by thieves, and the six-person team was the only one left," the two scouts gasped for a while, and they didn't recognize Chang Yu for a while: "Thank you for saving your life."
Chang Yu has a very respectful affection for scouts, when he was in Taiyuan, he and a group of scouts entered the camp of the thief army and assassinated Li Laiheng, the king of Xiaochuang, among which he can empathize with the hardships and dangers the most, so he touched nothing in his arms and looked at Li Muxian next to him.
Li Muxian quickly took out a piece of broken silver and threw it to the scout: "It's good to recuperate."
"Little thank you, adult" The two scouts were overjoyed, and Chang Yu glanced at the more than ten thieves in the distance, and slowly took out the strong bow.
More than ten thieves were very puzzled at this time, how could this officer and soldier be so bold!
Early in the morning, Tang Hu was ordered to lead 500 thieves and more than 2,000 cannon fodder to intercept the reinforcements of the officers and soldiers, the two armies were ten miles apart from each other, the previous officers and soldiers were tightly sealed, the thieves were unable to infiltrate and could not find out the reality of the officers and soldiers, and then Chang Yu ordered the thieves to deliberately let the spies in, so that they could find out that a large number of officers and soldiers were sending troops south from Dangtu, and at the same time, Lu Daqi also led his troops to line up, at this time Tang Hu saw that the original officers and soldiers in front of him were only more than 1,000.
But even if there are only more than 1,000 officers and soldiers on the opposite side, as long as they don't take the initiative to attack Tang Hu, they don't want to make trouble, the ghost knows how many ambushes they have in that small mountain, not to mention that there are nearly 10,000 troops behind, anyway, if you don't cross the line, I won't look for trouble, and the confrontation will be confrontation, anyway, I know that it is to break the city behind you and delay you.
However, the officers and soldiers first sent troops to confront him for a while, and then turned back to the camp ten miles away and closed the door, and at the same time tightened the blockade line to prevent the thief army from going north, which made Tang Hu inexplicably puzzled, he did not know that Tang Guozuo's troops were divided into three reinforcements, but they just walked around and returned to Dangtu to repair.
In the afternoon, thousands of officers and soldiers did not dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool, how could these three hundred officers and soldiers in front of them be so bold and want to go deep alone? The thief army scouts looked at it for a while, and finally saw a clue, and their hearts became more and more shocked, these three hundred are all cavalry, but they are definitely not ordinary cavalry, how can the monstrous war intent on them be ordinary soldiers and horses when you can feel them at a glance! As a spy, his eyes are very poisonous!
"Hurry back and tell Donald ......" A thief turned around and just spoke, he was shot by a sharp arrow through the throat and fell off the horse, and the remaining thieves were shocked and looked at it, and saw dozens of horsemen over there swinging knives at them, and immediately fled in fright.
Dozens of meters away a sword to seal the throat, this kind of archery is considered a beginner under the hands of the tough, but in the black wolf camp is definitely a super-first-class archery, after all, they are good at charging into battle and fighting each other, although they can also open a strong bow but the accuracy is far from the head, of course the person who is good at this is Chang Yu.
Chang Yu opened his bow and arrow, and then ordered to kill these thieves and spies, and immediately dozens of black wolf battalion soldiers beat horses and chased after them: "If it is here, you can shoot all the more than ten thieves within 100 meters of chasing the enemy, hey...... There is still a big gap between Bentu and him! ”
"Adult archery has improved rapidly, and the future achievements are definitely above the tenacity!" Li Muxian sent a sycophant at the right time, Chang Yu smiled: "Although I know that you are flattering, but I am happy to hear it" said and glanced at Lao Jiu, and ordered to continue to advance towards the south, and it will not be long before the soldiers who pursued the thief army will return, they killed six thieves and the rest fled to the southwest, where is the camp of the thief army, and they dare not go further and turn back.
Chang Yu immediately ordered the two wings to spread out, and the thief army could be killed at will, but not too far away.
In the southwest thief army camp more than ten miles away, Tang Hu frowned deeply after listening to the reports of several surviving spies, and his face was solemn: "Three hundred iron horses? ”
"Those three hundred officers and soldiers are by no means good, you can feel their murderous spirit from afar, it looks like they want to bypass us and go straight to Wuhu, can Boss Tang stop them?"
Tang Hu fell silent, he was not like Chen Dafa who was stupid and brainless, and after carefully going through the events of the past few days, he felt more and more that the officers and soldiers from Nanjing were not ordinary, and they did not play cards according to common sense, and they set up such a big situation in order to surprise attack and capture the city, and only defended the city with more than 1,000 people after they succeeded.
"It's not clear how many officers and soldiers there are ten miles away from us, but it's definitely not more than a thousand, and in the afternoon, they first came to provoke and then withdrew, just to lure us over, and at that time, Lao Tzu guessed that they set up a trap over there to wait for us, and sure enough, there were elite soldiers hidden." Tang Hu's eyes narrowed into a slit: "Why is it that he suddenly appears in the east now?" It is impossible for them to go directly to Wuhu City, no matter how fierce the three hundred people are, it will not be enough for Wang Zamao to eat, and they must be beating our idea again."
"What idea can the dog officers and soldiers have to fight us, it won't be that they want to be able to beat us back with 300 elite soldiers, it's too damn to underestimate us" The subordinates scolded and scolded non-stop.
"You stupid, if they want to use three hundred elite soldiers to deal with us, why don't they just kill us and go around from the east, they must want to go around behind us and attack back and forth, right, Don't you?" The other person seemed to be smarter, and when he said this, everyone felt reasonable, and even Tang Hu felt that it was very likely.
Tang Hu walked to the courtyard and looked up at the sky, the rain had stopped at this time, and coughed lightly: "Tiewazi, you take some people to keep an eye on the officers and soldiers in the north, the big black bear, you keep an eye on the south, Fan Liang took three hundred brothers to go to the east with Lao Tzu to meet the so-called elite soldiers, and see what a murderous spirit."
When it is painted to Wuhu, there are many lakes and swamps, and the rain has been constantly in the past few days, the enemy and our armies are running back and forth, whether it is an official road or a wilderness, it is muddy everywhere, and the war horses are quite difficult to run, Chang Yu simply let the horses go slowly and chatted with everyone to enjoy the scenery, but he was always swept away by the dead corpses on the side of the road, some of these corpses are thieves and some are officers and soldiers, and they will be found almost every other way, which shows how dangerous it is here, and how fierce the exploration of the horses on both sides is fierce.
"Report, a large army of thieves has been found in the west" At this time, the alarm signal from the periphery came, and a sneer appeared at the corner of Chang Yu's mouth, and he raised his head and shouted: "Prepare for war!" Lao Jiu immediately deployed his troops, and the three hundred cavalry finished in a fighting posture, staring at due west, where hundreds of thieves came slowly, and their strength was equal to his own.
Chang Yu patted his horse forward, picked up the clairvoyant mirror and looked at it for a while, and threw it to Li Muxian beside him: "If it is the same cavalry soldier or can still fight, less than a hundred horsemen dare to come to tease, this is their cheap bones to draw!" ”
Tang Hu was ordered to go north to stop the enemy's thief army with a total of only 500, the rest are wandering, the 500 thief army is only more than 100 horsemen, hearing his subordinates boast about how powerful the cavalry of the officers and soldiers is, he felt that it was too exaggerated, so he took more than 100 cavalry and 200 foot soldiers to take a look, and saw that the officers and soldiers had already set up a position across hundreds of meters, and he was shocked, and it was really not an ordinary officer and soldier, so he did not dare to go further.
"Why can't it be dropped? Why don't we rush over? Chang Yu waited for a while, but he couldn't help but wonder if the thief army was moving forward hundreds of meters away, and Wu Zhong and Lao Jiu were even more impatient and shouted.
"Let's go, he's scared!" Chang Yu sneered, turned around and left.
"Ah, no more fighting?" Lao Jiu and the others looked confused, looking left and right, and they didn't know why. Li Muxian waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go, the thief army is cowardly, we don't need to fight him, wipe the gun and move the whole body, once the battle starts, it will be a full-scale war, and there is no point in increasing the damage."
"Boss Tang, then, those officers and soldiers are gone, can we chase them?" Seeing that the officers and soldiers who were originally sharpening their knives suddenly turned their heads and swaggered away, Tang Hu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but a subordinate next to him was still howling in his throat, which made him very angry: "Lao Tzu is not blind, if you want to fucking chase me, you will chase Lao Tzu and not stop you."
Tang Hu is a man who cherishes his life and is excited, he knows that he can't kill the other party as soon as he sees the momentum of this officer and soldier, if the other party rushes over just now, he can only hurry up and run, and transfer the main force to meet the battle, but if the main force participates in the battle, the main force of the officers and soldiers in the north will inevitably kill him immediately, and he will definitely not be able to get good fruit to eat under such a flanking attack, so he can only retreat to the south.
But what is surprising is that this army of officers and soldiers didn't know what to think, and they didn't take the initiative to attack, but turned around and continued to go south.
Yes, if you love to go, go there, the farther away from me, the better, Tang Hu is iron-hearted, more things are better than less, so no matter what, it is impossible to catch up and find to be beaten.
In this way, the two armies were separated by hundreds of meters, and they watched each other pass by!
I have to say that it is also a rare strange scene on the battlefield.
