The Jin army moved north from Dai County, passed through Dangcheng, crossed the raging Luanshui, and then turned northeast to Pan County in Quang Ninh County. (Please search for the fastest novel website!) After camping outside the city of Pan County for a day, they continued northward, gradually entering the grassland of Bashang under the cover of heavy mountains. This vast grassland is the confluence of Yin Mountain and Yan Mountain, and it is also the easternmost point of Wanli Hanhai. Along the way, I felt that the terrain continued to rise; Look around, but see the sky is high and refreshing, the grass is like a tree, the distant mountain peaks are like clusters, the snow is white, the clear water is looping, like the jade belt surrounding, there are more dense forests distributed in the meantime, when the long wind blows, the pine waves are stirred, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

The army scurried through the complex landscape, and thousands of troops and horses parted ways, like several black dragons flying over the vast mountains. At first, when the soldiers galloped on the high slopes, they could see the continuous fields of Dai, Shanggu and Quang Ninh counties in the south, and they could vaguely distinguish that the fields were connected to each other, and it seemed that there were farmers working hard like ants. As the army continued northward, the sight of cultivation faded into obscurity. As far as the eye can see, there is only an endless sea of grass in the plains; Strong winds swept on all sides, blowing the grass softly, some roe deer and yellow sheep raised their heads in a daze, and the occasional roar of wild beasts could be heard in the distance.

The line north of Daidi is the main road for the nomads to invade the south for thousands of years, and it is also the way for the Han family to fight back. The famous generals Wei Qing, Huo Quai, and Li Guang in the former Han Dynasty once fought against the Xiongnu in the north several times. At this point on the march, the army had completely entered the sphere of influence of the steppe nomads, so the whole army could not help but raise their vigilance.

This vigilance, which has been condensed by the successive victories of this army in the past, has almost become the instinct of the generals, and there is no need for more than 6 Haruka to give orders. Ding Miao carefully observed the surrounding terrain, gave orders continuously, and additionally sent scouts on the ridges on the left and right sides of the direction of the army's march. Immediately, he himself led a number of fierce subordinates to fight forward and participate in the sentinel of the most advanced of the whole army. Xue Tong, who served as the deputy general of the 6th Yao, deliberately closed the distance between the Chinese army and the rear army, and brought a number of important baggage vehicles under the protection of the Chinese army. As the main assault force of the whole army, although Liu Yao's elite cavalry seemed to be at ease, they had naturally tightened the reins on their arms and were ready for battle.

Among the four generals to which 6 Yao belonged, only Shen Jin was not in his sight. This fierce general, who was too energetic, was arranged in the rear army this time, responsible for guarding the key points along the way and ensuring the retreat of the army. His position was far from the Chinese army, but 6 Yao was sure that this experienced general would be able to complete the task to the letter.

Ding Miao, Xue Tong, Shen Jin, Liu Yao, and many more soldiers are all elite generals who have been entangled in battles again and again, and each of them has extraordinary talents, that is, the so-called "good men of the six armies" in the art of war. All it takes is "to use it according to its ability" to defeat the enemy. Being able to go to the battlefield with them, 6 Haruka deeply felt lucky.

6 After "waking up" in the Taihang Mountains, the first few battles against the enemy relied on their high martial arts skills and the courage to dare to fight to the death, and the soldiers often chose to attack and fall into battle with small elite troops. However, this is also as the Art of War says, "straight and thoughtful, brave and able to fight" is just a tool of a thousand generals, if you want to have thousands of people, 100,000 people rampant in the world, what you need is much more complicated.

With the gradual integration of the memories of the two worlds and the expansion of the scale of the subordinate troops, today's 6 Yao is different from him half a year ago. He felt that he was not the kind of natural general, and what he could do was to devote himself to a rigorous and solid way of governing the army. Therefore, whether in wartime or peacetime, he trained his troops strictly and unremittingly, and in a short period of time, he tempered the complex Daijun soldiers into an iron army that has always been forbidden and solemn.

Even when the generals of the various unified armies frequently mobilized their troops and ordered messengers to rush, the soldiers did not mess up at all, and maintained a strict silence and fast marching army. Only Xiao Xiaoran's horse roared one after another, revealing the slightly nervous feelings of the knight on horseback.

As the saying goes: more than 10,000 soldiers, boundless. 6 At this time, the people of the Daijun went north, with nearly 10,000 strong soldiers, and countless mules and horses, and the whole team stretched out to the two wings, front and back, stretching for more than ten miles. As they marched, the rumbling footsteps shook the earth, as if the sky was bursting with thunder, which immediately made several small tribes of the Hu tribe nearby feel that the situation was not good.

Around noon, scouts everywhere reported that the Hu people were looking out for horses in the distance.

Most of these small tribes belong to the branch of the Tuoba Xianbei subordinate tribe, in other words, the subordinate tribe of the subordinate tribe. They were about thirty or fifty into a group, which was small in size and relatively closed in information. According to the report of the horse exploration sent by Zhu Sheng in advance, it seems that they have not been significantly affected by the Tuoba Xianbei turmoil. Although it is uncertain whether they have maintained their deference to the Tuoba clan, at least there is no sign of actively participating in the trouble.

6 Yao's dispatch of troops to the north, in the name of responding to the order of the Duke of Yueshi of Bingzhou, helping the orthodox Dashan Yu Yilu, and maintaining the situation of Tuoba Xianbei, from this point of view, those Hu'er can be regarded as an alliance of the Daijun army. It's a pity that, just as a certain level of power in later generations always practiced hegemonism under the banner of universal values, 6 Yao never intended to regard the Xianbei people as allies.

When the scouts asked for instructions on what to do with those Hu'er tribes, 6 Yao's eyes swept over the faces of the generals beside him one by one, and he casually clicked on one person: "Ni Yi, you go!" ”

Ni Yi, a native of Shu County who has escaped a little, has personally experienced the wars in Shuzhong, Guanzhong and the Central Plains, and has an incredible bumpy experience. As a member of the beggar army, he was under the command of 6 Yao in Yecheng. In the Daijun War, although he and the old-fashioned Roman Turinus did not match their personalities, both of them were experienced soldiers in military affairs, and they led their soldiers to achieve excellent results several times. The two were favored by 6 Yao, Turinus was recently transferred to Chen Pei's deputy, and Ni Yi was promoted to the head of the team directly under General Yingyang.

At the time of the Battle of Yecheng, Ni Yi, who was still just a chief, witnessed the heroic posture of 6 Yao across the battlefield, and had already surrendered to the five bodies that 6 Yao admired. Now that he is loved by the general, he is grateful and excited, and he thinks about how to make meritorious contributions day and night.

Hearing the 6 remote generals, Ni Yi responded loudly and turned his horse out of battle.

Ni Yi is shorter than ordinary people. He didn't say anything about this, but there was always a vague resentment in his heart, so he specially pleaded with many colleagues before he chose a tall horse as a car. When he took the lead, the slightly silly old subordinate Ado carried the usual big axe for Ni Yi and ran behind. In addition to Ado, Ni Yi's subordinates took the old begging department as the backbone at all levels, enriched with Zahu and Wuhuan, a total of 200 people, half of each foot.

Two hundred paces marched forward to the east, and crossed the hills to the east. On the way, the cavalry spread out in line left and right, like huge wings, to outflank several spies hiding in the rocks and grass.

The Jin army came too quickly, and several spies didn't care about it at first, but now that they were the target of the Jin army, they suddenly panicked. They whined and cried, and pulled their bareback horses from behind the bushes to escape. I don't know what happened, but one of them was probably dazed, and after walking a few steps between his horses, he turned around and took out his bow and arrows to shoot. Immediately, an arrow whistled past Ni Yi's ears, bringing down a few strands of silk.

Is this looking for death?

This must be looking for death, right?

Ni Yi was stunned, then he was furious, and urged the horse to rush over. His riding skills are ordinary, but those who can survive countless births and deaths naturally have his unique means. The distance of more than ten zhang passed in an instant, and the momentum of the horses was superimposed on the big axe in the palm, which immediately formed an extremely terrifying lethality.

When the two horses were in the stirrup, the sound of the axe blade cutting the back of the bow, cutting the muscles, and splitting the bones burst out at the same time, and the Hu Er, who dared to shoot the court officer, was full of anger and blood sprayed out of the abbot Xu Fangyuan, and was split in half from the shoulder to the waist.
