Chapter 248 Crazy, all crazy! (4K for subscription)
Qiang Hu City was less than [-] miles away from the Qiang camp, and at Huo Shan's speed, they reached five miles away from the Qiang army in a short while.

Two hundred shots stayed behind to protect the three of Huo Shan, and the rest of them, led by Captain Changshui and Shangguan Jie, dispersed and began to investigate the situation around the Qiang camp.

Along the way, as the distance gets closer and closer, the flames that can be seen are getting bigger and bigger, and the sound is getting louder and louder!
Huo Shan and the others did not approach the Qiang people, but found a place with higher terrain on the south side and left to observe.

Huo Shan looked at the chaotic Qiang camp, especially in the middle, the flames were soaring into the sky, and the lit tents stretched continuously, Huo Shan couldn't help asking:
"The one in the middle is Xianling Qiang?"

"Go back to the governor, that's right."

Zhang Anshi quickly replied that as Huo Shan's first secretary, he knew all the situations best.

Huo Shan continued to look at the Qiang people's camp. Except for the extreme chaos in the middle, where the flames were soaring into the sky, the south side was next in line.

Although the north side is also very chaotic, the situation is much better than the middle and south sides.

Seeing Huo Shan staring at the south side, Zhang Anshi quickly explained:
"To the governor, the Xianling Qiang lived in the middle, the south side was composed of many large tribes, and the north side was composed of small tribes.

The big tribes Zhong Qiang and Bai Lang Qiang on the south side lived farther from Xianling Qiang in the east, close to Hu Qiang City.

But Fengyang and Laojie are those who are closer to Xianling Qiang, and those who have a closer relationship live in the west.

On the north side, there are small tribes, and the camps are so intricately set up that it is really hard to tell them apart. "

Huo Shan nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.

"White Wolf and Zhong Qiang attacked Zero first, and Zero attacked Feng Yang and Sister Lao first, and the three sides fought each other, falling into a mess.

On the other hand, some of the small tribes on the north side stood still, and some ran around, and they were also in chaos.

But judging from their situation, they should be the same as us, they still don't know what happened!

I guess, it should be that there was a conflict between Zero and the Great Tribe, which led to this conflict. "

In the center of the camp near the southwest, there was a large fire made up of torches, and sporadic fires continued to converge on the south side.

The light of the torches on the north side was scattered everywhere, without any pattern, and it looked as if they hadn't figured out the situation yet.

Huo Shan looked at the gathering and flow routes of these flames and made a judgment.

After hearing Huo Shan's guess, everyone nodded in agreement.

But the next moment Huo Shan frowned again, because the situation changed again.

The flames on the north side gathered one after another, and then began to attack in all directions to the south. There was no single target, but they seemed to be doing their own thing.

Looking at the chaotic army of Qiang people, Huo Shan couldn't help laughing, he didn't care what happened inside the Qiang people, he just needed to know that the Qiang people were indeed in civil strife, not acting, and that was enough up.

Today's Qiang army, let alone more than 4, is an army of one million. It is not too easy to break them in such a situation.

With an army of several thousand, they can be defeated immediately.

This civil strife of the Qiang people really gave Huo Shan a big surprise. Generally speaking, the joy outweighed the surprise!
Huo Shan was not very surprised at this critical point when the Qiang people were in civil strife. The Qiang people often had civil strife, and they were not very united, so it was not surprising that there was such a situation.

The only thing that surprised Huo Shan was that their civil strife would happen at this moment, Huo Shan didn't know what to say.

.........

"Haha, wouldn't it be a lot less fun if I didn't join such a big show, don't you think?"

"Haha, exactly."

"The governor is right."

Huo Shan looked back at the two of them, and found that they were sitting on the ground regardless of their appearance, staring at him with piercing eyes.

Tian Qianqiu has already held the notebook in his left hand and the pen in his right hand, while Zhang Anshi is kneeling and sitting beside him, holding an inkstone and studying ink.

Seeing the appearance of the two, Huo Shan shook his head dumbfounded, and after thinking for a while, he said:
"Order: Xu Ziwei leads the central part of Huang, Hu Qi Xiaowei leads Hu Qi's department, a total of [-] troops, march eastward at a faster speed, but don't compromise combat power for the sake of speed.

In two days, before the evening of the next day, the [-] pioneer troops who stayed at the frontier military fort, as well as the Qiang soldiers and horses who fled later, were all driven into the [-]-mile defense line by the Marquis.

Then pull up the defense when entering the plain of the three defense lines, so that the Qiang people cannot rush out, and then wait for orders. "

After Huo Shan finished speaking, he waited and saw Tian Qianqiu raised his head and nodded, then continued:

"Ling: Commander Lieutenant Ju leads the three frontier forts and 24 small forts with a total of [-] troops, and goes out to build defenses.

In the morning of the next day, Ben Hou set up defenses on the main roads heading west from the three defense lines, and prepared rolling stones and trees on the hills to prevent the Qiang people from rushing out, and then waited for orders. "

……

"Order: Captain Yueqi leads 2000 soldiers and horses in the mountains of the Yueqi Department, and I will deal with the [-] men as soon as possible, and then retreat to the defense line at the frontier military fort, waiting for orders!"

Huo Shan thought about Zhao Puonu's position again, and then ordered:

"Order: Zhao Puonu led two thousand tigers, gave up the enemy in front of him, and went directly to attack Zhong Qiang, and then attacked the white wolf. If he can be destroyed, he will be destroyed. He does not seek results, but a surprise attack.

No matter what means he uses, what this Marquis wants is their loss, this Marquis wants them not to survive this winter.

Then three days later, that is, before the fifteenth morning, they arrived at the east side of Xianling Qiang's territory and waited for orders. "

Tian Qianqiu was writing furiously there, Zhang Anshi hesitated and asked:
"Governor, Zhong Qiang and Bai Lang Qiang are far away, isn't time a little tight?"

Huo Shan looked at him, calculated in his mind that there was no problem, and then asked:
"Using their current position as the starting point, and then continue to attack, and then arrive at the east side of Xianling Qiang, is it a thousand miles away?"

Zhang Anshi made the final calculation, then shook his head:
"It's not thousands of miles, it's about six or seven hundred miles."

"Then what's the problem?"

"There will be an attack during the period, and the soldiers may not have time to rest."

Huo Shan pouted:
"Habayashi can rest on horseback, why can't he, Huben?
He clamored every day that he wanted to catch up with Habayashi, and become the strongest army in the world, how could he do it without any skills! "

Zhang Anshi thought for a while, and finally nodded helplessly.

"Tian Qianqiu, one more sentence, let them bring more horses, their own horses save energy, and the captured horses will run to death, and if they run to death, just throw them away.

Don't save war horses, I, Huo Shan, don't lack those two horses, military situation is important! "

"promise!"

Hearing Huo Shan's words, Zhang Anshi couldn't help grinning, and muttered softly:
"It's really rich and powerful, two horses, tsk tsk!"

Huo Shan turned his head and stared at him:
"What did you say?"

Zhang Anshi immediately raised his head and showed a bright smile:

"I said the governor is really grand!"

"Humph!"

Huo Shan rolled his eyes at him, and then the three of them began to pack bamboo tubes.

Huo Shan used paper, so the bamboo tubes used to transmit the letter were just bamboo tubes with small knots, not to mention these few, there were about a dozen of them, hanging on Xiao Hei's body was like nothing.

Don't worry that Xiao Hei won't be able to fly after the bamboo tube is hung on his body, or the journey will be tiring!
After sending off Xiao Hei, Captain Changshui and Shangguan Jie also came back, their faces were full of excitement!

Huo Shan didn't go to the side to observe, so he didn't know the situation very well. In their opinion, the Qiang people were already stunned. Even when they took them outside the camp, the Qiang people didn't find them.

Although I don't know the specific reason, this is a great thing for our side!

"How's it going?"

Huo Shan looked at the two and asked!

As soon as Huo Shan finished asking, Shangguan Jie danced excitedly and shouted:
"Crazy, all crazy, the eyes of the Qiang people are all red, and they only know how to kill people from other tribes.

Except for the white wolf and Zhong Qiang who are still united, they are considered friendly, and the others are all crazy, no matter which tribe they belong to, they will kill anyone they see! "

"Tsk tsk!"

Huo Shan couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard this situation!

Although he has heard of this situation and seen it in military books, this is really the first time he has encountered it!
Soldiers killed the enemy for too long, and when their minds collapsed, they could easily fall into nightmares. This is not the kind of post-war trauma syndrome.

The kind of post-war trauma syndrome is the kind that can't get out after leaving the battlefield, and has been tortured all the time.

And this kind is killing and killing, people are like crazy, their eyes are full of blood, no matter the enemy or us, there is only one thought, and that is to kill.

Killing all the living things in front of him, it became a killing machine.

And he can't control himself, he will get out of this state when he is tired, paralyzed and passed out. Of course, he can die, but then the state will be gone.

This kind of thing is unavoidable in this cold weapon era. It sounds amazing, but it does exist!
There is no specific solution, and it has never appeared in Huo Shan's army, because all his soldiers have hope.

Because they felt that if they followed Huo Shan to win the battle, they would have a high probability of surviving. Even if they really died, they would still have a large amount of pensions to give to their families.

So their determination can be said to be very firm!
This kind of situation usually occurs in those tragic battles. I feel that I can't survive, and my comrades around me die one by one, and I collapse when I can't bear it.

It is basically impossible for Huo Shan's subordinates to have such a situation.

.........

Huo Shan sighed in his heart, then hurriedly asked:
"How is the terrain, the layout of the enemy's barracks, and the detailed investigation?"

"Going back to the governor, there is no problem. The soldiers have already remembered it in their hearts. When I go back and tell the soldiers of Changshui in detail, there will be no problem."

After listening to Captain Changshui's narration, Huo Shan hastily ordered:

"Then withdraw!"

Huo Shan gave an order, and everyone got on their horses and went back to protect Qiang City.

When they arrived at Huqiang City, Huo Shan found that part of the army had gathered in front of the city, nearly half.

Huo Shan hurriedly gathered the crowd and began to change his strategy. He originally thought that even if it was a civil disturbance, it was a small civil disturbance and it would subside in a short time.

Therefore, Huo Shan's previous decision was to seize the time and send a wave of Qingqi to attack.

But now that the actual situation has been detected, judging by their situation, they will not be able to stop for a while.

But the Qiang people were in a mess, attacking each other and gathering together. In this situation, they were not on heavy cavalry, and they were simply sorry for themselves.

.........

"What time is it?"

"Back to the governor, when I first entered Mao, there was still about an hour and a quarter of an hour before dawn."

Huo Shan nodded and began to order:
"Shangguan Jie, go and gather the five thousand armored men, take off the armor and lightly dress, and immediately go to rest five miles east of the Qiang camp. The army walks lightly so as not to disturb the Qiang people."

"The last general takes orders!"

Shangguan Jie took two quick steps, jumped onto the horse, changed direction and rushed towards the city.

"Zhong Gan, you must immediately call the civilian men and transport the armor and equipment of the six thousand heavy cavalry outside the city. You must act quickly."

"promise."

Zhong Gan immediately started to make arrangements.

"Lieutenant Changshui, the Changshui Department has [-] soldiers and horses, one person and two horses, two of them are in charge of one person's equipment, and the remaining [-] are scattered.

After the civilian men transported out of the city, they immediately received the equipment and transported it to the front line. "

"The last general takes orders!"

"Lu Bode, do a good job of defending the Qiang front line."

"The last general takes orders!"

"Zhang Anshi, battle drums and flags, send them to the front line as soon as possible."

"promise."

The responses from the crowd seemed unusually fast, so everyone took action.

Now that he has just entered Mao, there is still an hour and two quarters of an hour before dawn, which is two and a half hours.

And within these two and a half hours, a surprise attack must be launched against the Qiang people.

Huo Shan didn't know when they started the civil strife, but no matter when they had the civil strife, they would definitely enter a period of relief after dawn.

And they must also think of the situation at this time, and they must think of the Han army next to them.

At that time, although they could not stop the sudden arrival of the big Han soldiers and horses after a night of fighting, the results of the battle would certainly not be as great as the surprise attack before dawn.

Therefore, the most important and urgent thing at this moment is time, and I dare not delay for a moment.

.........

Moment of time.

Five thousand unarmored troops marched slowly from both sides of the city to the front of the city.

"Lieutenant Shesheng, lead the Shesheng officers who are investigating the situation to follow, and explain the terrain and the layout of the barracks to officers at all levels in detail."

"The last general takes orders!"

Huo Shan waved to Shangguan Jie in the distance, and shouted loudly:

"Let's go now!"

"promise!"

The [-] army, plus the [-] tigers who had just taken off their light armor, began to march forward slowly.

People can take a short rest, but horses can't.

Although they are one person and two horses, Huo Shan still has some plans of his own, and an hour is enough to rush over, these heavy horses can take their time.

.........

Mao Shi three quarters.

Zhong Gan summoned the servants to carry the burden in a carriage, and came out with iron armor.

Huo Shan walked among the Changshui soldiers, shouting as he walked:

"Leading soldiers from each team stepped forward one after another to receive armor and equipment according to the number. You are responsible for the armor with that number, and the big gun, vest and other things are that number. Don't confuse them."

.........

Maoshi five quarters.

All the equipment has been distributed and placed on the spare horses of the soldiers, the drums and flags and other things have also been prepared, and the soldiers have also lined up neatly.

Huo Shan walked back and forth in front of the formation, let all the soldiers in the front row see him, then shouted loudly:

"set off!"
