Seeing Wang Xian's expression, Bao Yin knew that the Tatars had really come this time. Unexpectedly, she didn't lose her temper like last time, but just glanced at him with those light blue eyes, and said lightly: "Crow's mouth ......" and stopped saying anything.

"Okay, it's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, let him come when it's time to come." Wang Xian sighed and said, "Map."

Immediately, a soldier took off the copper cylinder from his back, took out a scroll of cowhide map, and unfolded it in front of Wang Xian and the others, which Zhu Zhanji left to them before retreating.

"We're here now." Xu Huaiqing pointed to two points on the map and said, "The Tatars should be here." The distance of sixty miles between the two sides, which seemed to be only as far as a fingernail on the map, added to the sense of crisis in the hearts of several people.

"Time waits for no one, you must make a decision immediately" Wang Xian pursed his lips and said, but after speaking, he saw that everyone was looking at him... You are the one who has the idea, he scratched his head vigorously and said, "Well, Lao Xu, give some professional advice first." ”

"Yes." Time was pressing, Xu Huaiqing was not polite, nodded and said: "According to the opinion of the last general, we do not have the ability to confront the Tatars head-on, so it is naturally better to avoid their edge." But the problem is that our contingent of several thousand people will not be able to hide their whereabouts at all, and the Tatars will soon find out about us. Even if we abandon our baggage, they will catch up with us" After a pause, he said: "What's worse, if the Tatars are smart enough to turn around and choke the entrance of the Hanhai Corridor first, we will not be able to go south, we can only turn back to the Mobei ......"

Listening to Xu Huaiqing's analysis, Wang Xian's eyes were fixed on the map. The so-called Hanhai is the Hanhai Desert. The so-called Mobei is the north of the Hanhai Desert, this vast desert, also known as the Great Gobi, is the fourth largest desert in the world, spanning only 100 miles

The Ming Dynasty made several expeditions to Mobei, and the most difficult part of the journey was to cross this big Gobi. The reason why the Ming army was able to pass through the Great Gobi was because for thousands of years, countless Mongols used their lives to explore a life channel, along this sea corridor, you can get water supply from underground springs and freshwater lakes, so although it is difficult, it is still a way to survive after all.

But now, the entrance to this passage, behind the Tatars, and they are in front of the Tatars, how can they bypass the Tatars and preemptively enter this passage? Everybody made a fuss.

In deep thought, Wu Wei said in a low voice: "What if we enter the Hanhai Corridor, as long as the Tatars chase us in, they will still catch up with us." "This is certain, because of Mahamu's restraint, they have more people and fewer horses, and the average one person is less than two. And the Tatars should have three or four horses per man, and the long time of the pursuit will make the difference between the two sides apparent.

"That's right, we can't take this passage, otherwise we will definitely not be able to get rid of the enemy's pursuit." Wang Xian nodded in agreement.

"Then you have to go back." Xu Huaiqing frowned and said, "But that can't escape the fate of being chased and annihilated." ”

"Actually, we still have a choice, which is to go straight from here," Wang Xian said with his fingernails, drawing a vertical line on the Hanhai Desert on the map, "I don't believe they dare to chase in"

"But we can't get out of the city" Everyone almost said in unison: "There is no second passage on the Great Gobi, we can only break into it, and we can only die of thirst."

In fact, Wang Xian had a vague idea, he was not as afraid of the Hanhai Desert as others. But he did not dare to make a decision based on his imagination, and if he led 3,000 people into the desert, he found that his method did not work, and he would become a sinner. After thinking about it, he gave up his thoughts and said, "Okay, let's think of another way." ”

Time passed minute by minute, everyone was still at a loss, and Baoyin Qiqige finally spoke: "It's better to be like this, I will lead my people to the north, and you Han people will go east or west, and we will flee separately." There are few of you, and it is easy to hide, so when they go after us, you will take the opportunity to go south. ”

Wu Wei and Xu Huaiqingxin said that this is a solution. But this kind of thing of using friendly troops as bait to escape for their lives is so shameless, they really can't say anything good.

"That's a good idea." Wang Xian nodded and said, "Then it's decided." ”

Although this idea was proposed by Baoyin, after hearing Wang Xian's unhesitating agreement, she suddenly lost blood on her face, bit her lower lip tightly, and lowered her head seriously: "Okay." ”

"What a fart" Wang Xian immediately changed his face and said: "Your life is not your life, 3,000 people for 200 people, what kind of foolish account are you?" ”

"You ......" Baoyin was angry, and tears were about to come out: "You can't talk well"

"Speak well, you first settle the accounts clearly, how to make a good deal, how to lose money, and then speak......" Wang Xianbai glanced at her, and then fell silent, he was obviously out of shape, because his heart was on fire, and it was as if there were ten thousand big stones pressed on his chest.

His witty performance in the past has won the trust of everyone, and at this moment of crisis, everyone regards him as the backbone of the backbone, so to speak, now the life and death of 3,000 people and horses are all in his thoughts, but Wang Xian is not a god, and he is also a novice in the military, and he is also at a loss how to get out of trouble...... I can't help but secretly regret why I didn't take Mo Wen with me, so that I also have a high staff. But now no one can rely on it, so we can only make a decision as soon as possible, and we must not sit idly by

Everyone's eyes were staring at him without blinking, Wang Xian pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "Although we must go south in the last place, we must not expose our intentions. The opposite must be resolutely done. Go north and take the enemy around the steppe in circles, take them as far away as possible, and then wait for the opportunity to get rid of them, and then go south."

"Yes," Wu Wei and Xu Huaiqing replied in unison. After the Battle of Jiulongkou, they completely looked at Wang Xian's horse's head, and even if Wang Xian took them to death, they did not hesitate.

"Pass my order, immediately bury the pot for cooking, bury double the stove, and at the same time set up double the battalion," Wang Xian said in a deep voice: "Sun Bin used the method of reducing the stove to lure the enemy deep, so we did the opposite, using the method of increasing the stove, so that the enemy could not figure out our reality."

At the time of this crisis, the Menghan soldiers worked together, mobilized all, and soon according to Wang Xian's order, they buried double the stove and set up double the camp tent, and then packed up their belongings and prepared to set off.

Taking advantage of this moment, Wang Xian had already thought about it clearly-Hulan suddenly lost temperature, and the mountains there were continuous, which was conducive to the concealment of cavalry troops. This steppe originally belonged to the Tatars, and they must know this better than anyone else, and they did not go to the northwestward direction of Helin, to join Mahamu, but to the north of the Hulan hypothermia, which should ⊥ the other party more and more suspicious, there will be an ambush in the Kulan hypothermia

"Do you want to throw away the baggage?" When he set off, Baoyin, who was leading a large group of people to retreat first, asked.

"You can't lose it all at once, you have to lose it little by little along the way." Wang Xian said: "In short, we must make a posture to lure the enemy into going deeper, the more similar the better, the more similar we are, the more they dare not catch up."

"Yes." Bao Yin responded. So the army left behind some of its chariots and pots and pans, and turned back to the north

Wang Xian, however, led more than a hundred jīng sharp cavalry and quietly lurked on the mountain in the distance. After waiting for half a day, I finally saw the scout team of the Warat army......

"Good guy, a thousand-person scout team" Xu Huaiqing is from a professional class, and he has his own set of wait-and-see methods, and the number of scouts is determined from a distance. "With such a large scout, the number of Tatars is at least more than 10,000

"Another point is that the commander of the Warat people is very cautious." Wang Xian smiled: "I'm afraid of meeting a daredevil, no matter how much we chase after us, we don't have a curse." ”

"Your Excellency doesn't know much about us Mongols," said the leader of the Borzigit cavalry, named Delemu, who was Taliba's personal bodyguard and also spoke Chinese, and said with a smile: "Since the ghost Li Chi killed Kun Timur Khan, our steppe has completely returned to the situation before Genghis Khan, where the law of the jungle was the strong. Whoever has more soldiers in his hands and a wide range of generals can be called Khan, and whoever has fewer soldiers in his hands, whether you are a Great Khan or a Taishi, there is only one way to die. Therefore, this kind of army with a size of more than 10,000 must be personally led by the Tatar Taishi Arutai. He couldn't trust anyone, not even his son. ”

"I see." Wang Xian nodded and said with a smile: "If Arutai is easy to do, then the old goods have been beaten out by Mahamu over the years." Although Baba came this time to take the opportunity to beat the water dog, he must also be afraid of being bitten by the dog. ”

"But don't take it lightly, Arutai is known as a wise man, and he is called the grassland hero along with Mahamu, and he is not so easy to fool." Delemu said bluntly.

Fortunately, Wang Xian had no official pretenses, so he said disapprerovantly: "Of course, let's wait and see what happens." ”

In the distance, the Warat scouts began to dismount and search the camp they had left behind. Wang Xian couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that there is no explosives, otherwise if you bury some in the camp, it will look good now......"

Xu Huaiqing also sighed: "Let the adults lose a chance to live forever." ”

"Lao Xu, you are a sycophant." Wang Xian said with a smile: "But Lao Tzu has more opportunities to be famous through the ages, not bad this time."

It's no wonder that they have the leisure to fart here, because the Wara scout has changed from spying to jǐng ring, and only roams within a radius of dozens of miles, with no intention of moving forward. It is clear that the army of Warat will camp here tonight.

In the evening, the Wara army finally arrived at the camp, the first thing was naturally to set up camp in the village, their jǐng tixìng is very high, and their attainments under civil engineering are much higher than those of the Warat people, and they spared no effort to dig down the trench and erect the camp, which was quite a bit of a strong camp, and the meaning of the deer village was heavy, which basically eliminated the possibility of the enemy stealing the camp.
