Phantom Heaven finally saw Yun Xiao, looking very miserable, and it seemed that he only had half a life left. The white face was covered with chilblains, one shoe had gone somewhere, and the other shoe had five toes exposed, the little toes were blackened and bleeding pus. Loose hair was draped over the shoulders, and large and small parasites were moving in and out of it. His clothes were scraped and tattered by tree branches, and one shoulder was wrapped in a triangular scarf like a rice dumpling, and there was a thick stench from it.

Stopping the fisherman from washing his hands with boiling water, Yun Xiao found a large wooden barrel. It was filled with warm water, and then the phantom sky was put inside.

The water in the barrel quickly turned into blood, and the triangular scarf had already been strangled into the flesh, Yun Xiao couldn't get his hands on it when he looked left and right with the knife, and the old fisherman shaved off the rotten flesh and the triangular scarf with tears in his eyes.

"Juzi, King Wu sent troops to attack Yecheng, with 5,000 cavalry."

This was the last sentence of Phantom Tian, and he fainted after speaking. It can be seen that this sentence is his biggest motivation, and he relied on this heart to find Yecheng.

"This kid has never been injured like this, who did such a thing to him?" The old fisherman said while cutting the carrion of the phantom sky.

"Don't talk about this yet, quickly wash it and wrap it in a felt quilt, and put it on the clay kang to slow down. Let Zifeng take care of the wound, he is like this, I am afraid that he will not be able to save it if it is too late. That's right, shave your hair. "This avoids bacterial infections, lice are very qualified disease spreaders, Yun Xiao understands this.

Shaved the phantom sky, washed it, changed the body, wrapped it in a felt cloth and put it on the kang head. His hands were tied tightly by the cloth bag, for fear that he would wake up and scratch.

"Master Hou, this place is far away from the battlefield. Why did King Wu send 5,000 infantry and cavalry to attack Yecheng, did he know that the center of the army's ordnance and grain transit was here? ”

Canghu asked Yunxiao suspiciously.

"A strong fortress is the easiest to be breached from within, and when an internal traitor is the most terrible existent. King Wu must have known that the ordnance and grain of the army were in transit here, so he came to attack Yecheng. I really look up to me, 5,000 people on foot, I'm afraid they are here to grab things, and 200,000 people eating horses and chewing are also a heavy burden to King Wu, who is a rich country. ”

"Master Hou, there are only a hundred of us. Counting the defenders in the city plus the soldiers of Okura, there were less than three hundred. Three hundred against five thousand, do you still need to fight this battle? ”

The bear said worriedly.

Yun Xiao opened the map and looked at it carefully.

Now the cold weather and the freezing Yellow River are not an obstacle at all, the main force of the Wu army is under Suiyang City, and the Wu army must come from Suiyang. Yun Xiao drew a straight line from Suiyang to Yecheng, and if Wu Jun wanted to reach Yecheng as soon as possible, he would definitely take this road.

"Come and see, if the Wu army comes to attack Yecheng, it will definitely take this road. Because this is the closest way to Yecheng, and it can avoid the volley of Luoyang soldiers and horses. And I believe that King Wu will definitely send troops to contain the soldiers and horses of Luoyang, and the number of them is not less than twice that of Luoyang's men and horses. Only in this way can the soldiers and horses of Luoyang be trapped in the city, and they will not be able to come out to help us.

In other words, we will not have any assistance in this battle. ”

Yun Xiao looked at the Cang brothers and the fisherman and the big hammer with solemn faces, and saw that there was not the slightest fear in their eyes, which was a relief.

"The only thing we relied on in this battle was the distance of seventy miles, we were all cavalry, and the three-bow bed crossbow was also mounted on the carriage. Only by constantly consuming the enemy along the way, causing the enemy's spirit to collapse, then only one charge can break them.

To do this, the most important thing is to destroy their cavalry. Jiangnan does not produce good horses and is not tolerant of bitter cold, and the quality of Wu Jun's horses is definitely not better than ours. ”

"Well, we'll definitely have an advantage right away. Wu soldiers have always been infantry-based, with fewer cavalry than 5,000 cavalry, and more than 200 cavalry. It's not difficult to kill them with an iron-tired crossbow, I've been to Wu before, their cavalry doesn't have stirrups, and you have to hold the reins with one hand and draw the bow with the other. The range is only 100 paces, and it can't compare with our iron-tired crossbows.

In close combat, they are no match for either spears or sabers. ”

Goshawk looked at the map and analyzed.

Yun Xiao pointed to the map and said, "If my analysis is correct, they should cross the river here."

Fenglingdu, here is the turn of the Yellow River and the water flow is slow. The frozen ones are also the earliest, and the frozen solid ice surface is still flat, which is suitable for crossing the river. The injury of the illusory sky does not take five or six days, and it is impossible for it to suppurate like this. In other words, now the Wu army is not far from Fenglingdu. Let's seize Fenglingdu and lure out their cavalry with three-bow crossbows. ”

"Cavalry can ambush here, I remember there was a forest on the side of the road in this place, suitable for Tibetans. Their cavalry pursued them, and Batu led the men to shoot them with crossbow arrows from the spurs. As long as two or three salvos are fired, it is estimated that there will not be many people left of them, and their horses are not as fast as ours, so they will definitely not be able to run. ”

Canghu pointed to a place on the map.

And so, I set off overnight. The cart unloaded all the supplies and went to the warehouse to load as many crossbows and short spears as possible. ”

"No. But we don't have a warrant from General Dou, and we need a warrant to receive things. ”

"In a hurry, obey the power, and if blocked, kill."

Yun Xiao gritted his teeth. No matter what happens to Yecheng, he will not escape death. Between Daoist friends and poor Daoists, Yun Xiao has always chosen to die rather than die in poor Dao.

Everyone worked nervously, and as Canghu expected, the soldiers of Okura really refused to equip Yunxiao with supplies.

"Lao Tzu just won't let you take it, don't you dare to grab it? If you want to take the ordnance, you don't want to take the general's warrant. If you have a warrant, you just move here, I don't have a word, and I don't want to use a knife or a gun without a warrant. The soldiers behind him saw that Shi Chang was so stiff, and they were all excitedly clamoring behind him. The dishonest mouth has begun to point to Sang and scold Huai.

Yun Xiao admired this person who stared at the tiger with his nostrils, and his words were high-sounding, and he was not afraid of the tiger's ferocity. Yun Xiao gave a look, and Brother Nostril's head became a broken watermelon. The bear pointed at the remaining soldiers with a mace with a brain, "Which of you still wants to stop it, come here." ”

The soldiers who had been screaming so merrily as if they had been beaten with chicken blood just now turned into quails. Shrinking his head, he watched the disciples of the Mo family and the Huns carry crossbow arrows and spears to the cart, and they didn't even dare to put their farts in their arms.

Twenty big cars, twenty big cars. Yun Xiao waved his hand, and the cart and the Hun men were all gone.

In the entire military village, there were only fifty soldiers transferred from the city by Yun Xiao.

In fact, the team does not need Yun Xiao to manage, and the Hun men have Batu to manage. The disciples of Momen have the old fisher to manage, and the Cang brothers are even more from the army, and they are even more familiar with the march. Yun Xiao lay in the carriage, taking a small sleep and going to the Yellow River crossing. It wasn't until Canghu brought breakfast that Yun Xiao knew that it had arrived.

Breakfast is very simple, just dry cakes and jerky, whether it suits the taste or not, you have to try to eat a little. I didn't see a lion shaking his head, half of the cake had already entered his mouth, and he disappeared after chewing a few bites.

Stepping onto his own warhorse, Yun Xiao came to the bank of the frozen Yellow River.

The sun is always late in winter, and Yun Xiao, who had been driving all night, had already arrived at the wind chime ferry with ten carts.

"Juzi, you're right. You see that there are many shadows on the other side, and I am afraid of the appearance of thousands of people. Sure enough, they crossed the river here. ”

Yun Xiao was counting the number of cavalry on the other side with the telescope in his hand, and what the goshawk said was right. Most of the Wu army was infantry, and the cavalry had less than 200 cavalry. Moreover, Yun Xiao was surprised to find that many of the Wu soldiers wore bamboo armor made of pawns, and only a small number of elites wore iron heavy armor.

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Yun Xiao's mouth, it seemed that he was going to use human blood to make a red head. On the battlefield, those who seek the living die, and those who seek the dead live. This is not a place to talk about morality, the moral Song Xianggong will eventually be eliminated by the war, and the place where life and death are fought is where there is no moral perfection.

Ten three-bowed bed crossbows were lined up, their sharp spear tips glistening coldly in the winter morning sun. In the next moment, these cold spears will taste human blood.

The soldiers of Wu looked at these carts thousands of paces away with great curiosity, and did not understand why there were so many carts on the other side of the river early in the morning. Still in dense formation, they crossed the river in a chaotic manner, and the southerners had never seen a frozen river, and walked cautiously on the ice. One by one, they look very much like kindergarten children.

When the first round of the three-bow bed crossbow was fired, many children holding hands were nailed to the ice in human strings. The sharp spear is like the scythe of death, mercilessly harvesting life. The large-scale military training a few days ago was very effective, and Yun Xiao counted the first random salvo and killed more than 20 people.

The soldiers of Wu on the ice cried wolf and ran towards the back, desperately escaping from the blows of the three-bow bed crossbow. After just two rounds of launches, more than 30 corpses were already left on the ice, and the red blood stained a large area of ice and snow, exuding a bewitching light in the rising sun.

Bu Pheasant found that the front army was in chaos, and came to the river with his personal guards and horses.

"Don't come near the generals, they don't know what to use. Shoot extremely far, and the brothers were shot by them at a distance of a thousand paces. You see, General, several of them are strung together with javelins. ”

An old centurion pointed to the corpse on the surface of the river and warned the pheasant not to get too close.

Bu Pheasant was also shocked to see the corpse on the ice, he had never seen a crossbow arrow that could shoot so far. And the javelin is still shot more heavily, what kind of ordnance would have such great power that it can take people's lives from a thousand steps away.

Looking up, a young man in fur was looking at himself with a strange object. The guards next to him were all tall men, and ten large carts were lined up, and their thick spears glistened in the sun.
