Chapter 2023 Decoy

With the pennant fluttering and the sound of horseshoes, when Xu Chang saw the northwest cavalry approaching from the east, the strength of which was at least 8000, he immediately felt grateful for his decisive decision.

If instead of turning back in time and quickly occupying Huangling, but insisting on returning to join the main cavalry army in Liaodong, then the soldiers and horses of the headquarters will be caught in the front and rear attacks of tens of thousands of northwest cavalry, and the consequences will be devastating. By the time Kou Ying got the news, the [-] soldiers under him had already been wiped out.

Fortunately, I finally listened to Zhao You's persuasion, and quickly turned around and came back to occupy Huangling.

Huangling is not a high mountain, not even a dangerous mountain. Compared with many towering and dangerous peaks in Hexi, it is even just a slightly higher slope, but this is already the best place Xu Chang can choose to stick to.

He knew that if the Northwest Army attacked with all its strength, his troops would not be able to sustain it after all, but he was also confident that once Kou Ying found out that something was wrong, he would definitely send reinforcements to rescue him. Mission that cannot be completed.

Xu Chang's expectation was indeed good, Kou Ying was already muttering at this time, according to the original plan, the [-] soldiers and horses sent should have returned, but they have not been seen for a long time, which makes Kou Ying quite annoyed.

Kou Ying's military order made it very clear that if you push as far as Huangling, you are not allowed to advance any further. Regarding this military order, Kou Ying is confident that Xu Chang will not dare to disobey it, not to mention Zhao You is arranged by his side. Even if Xu Chang is impulsive, Zhao You, who has always been calm, will naturally persuade him from the sidelines.

Of course Kou Ying didn't want to really turn against the Northwest Army at this time. It would undoubtedly be a very stupid choice to easily start a war with the Northwest Army before gaining power in Liaodong.

But he knew better that he didn't want to start a war lightly with the other party. It didn't mean that the other party was willing to make peace with him. The best way to make the other party fearful was naturally to show his strength, show off his fists, It was used to frighten the opponent, and because of this, thousands of horses and horses were sent to go there, and Xu Chang brought out all the elite cavalry of the Liaodong cavalry. In addition to the scruples, you can also use this opportunity to test how the Northwest Army will react.

Four thousand elite cavalry, as long as they don't go too deep into the enemy's territory, Kou Ying believes that with their strength, even if they encounter the main cavalry of the Northwest Army, they can retreat completely.

But a whole day had passed since they returned, which made Kou Ying feel a little uneasy.

If the soldiers and horses used to frighten the opponent fall into the trap of the Northwest Army because of showing their own strength, then it is really not worth the loss, and it has become a big joke.

"Report!"

A voice came from outside the tent, and Kou Ying stepped forward immediately: "Can you detect Xu Chang's movements?"

"General, Tan Ma went west to investigate, but we didn't find our people, but found the Northwest Rangers." Tan Ma reported: "Looking at their appearance, it seems that they are also paying attention to our movement."

"Northwest Rangers?" Kou Ying's heart sank, "You mean the Northwest Rangers were found in the west?"

Of course, he knew the danger of this information. Logically speaking, Xu Chang's soldiers and horses occupy Huangling, so the area from here to the middle of Huangling is under his control. Xu Chang is like a wall, blocking it. Living on the road from the east of the Northwest Army, within this area, there is naturally no trace of the Northwest Rangers.

But since the Northwest Rangers appeared, it could only prove that there was something wrong with Xu Chang.

If the Northwest Rangers escaped Xu Chang's eyes and ears and leaked to the rear, it was just harassment by a small group of scouts and could not pose a threat, otherwise great changes must have occurred in the front.

Kou Ying did not sit and wait any longer. No matter what happened ahead, the main cavalry could not wait to go to the reinforcements.

The soldiers and horses clanged, Kou Ying did not delay, and led his troops out immediately. The four thousand cavalry were the elite cavalry of Liaodong, and they could not afford to lose no matter what.

Naturally, the supplies and food cannot go with the army, and rescue is like fighting a fire. Kou Ying left a team of troops to protect the food and grass, and repeatedly ordered to guard day and night, so that nothing will be lost.

Kou Ying dispatched troops immediately, but Xu Chang naturally knew nothing about it. After occupying Huangling, he immediately distributed his soldiers and horses on various roads in the mountains, waiting for the attack of the Northwest Army.

In his mind, since the Northwest Army had besieged the four thousand Liaodong elite cavalry, there was no reason to let go of such a large piece of fat. They must swallow this army at all costs before the reinforcements arrived.

Because of this, Xu Chang only thought that he would face a fierce attack next.

But what happened next was completely beyond Xu Chang's expectations. The Northwest Army had no intention of attacking Huangling at all. It just set up formations on the east and west sides of Huangling, and sent out cavalry to cruise around Huangling from time to time.

"What are they trying to do?" Seeing that the Northwest Army stood still, Xu Chang was puzzled.

Zhao You also frowned, apparently quite puzzled by the actions of the Northwest Army.

"Isn't it because they want to trap us to death on this mountain?" Xu Chang sneered. If the Northwest Army really had such a plan, Xu Chang would feel a lot easier.

Each of the soldiers under his command carried four days of dry rations, and they saved some. It was not a problem to support them for five days. Although three days had passed since the camp, the soldiers did not have much dry rations, but no matter how much they supported Two days, no problem, and the Liaodong Army has always been training hard. Even if the food is exhausted, it can be done for another two or three days without eating. In other words, the Northwest Army wants to trap this army. Soldiers and horses, wanting them to starve to death on the Yellow Ridge is completely wishful thinking.

In the past few days, no matter how slow Kou Ying reacted, it was enough to arrive in time.

Looking at the Northwest Army under the mountains, although the two troops together numbered tens of thousands, Xu Chang knew that once Kou Ying led reinforcements, the Liaodong cavalry would quickly gain the upper hand in terms of strength.

"It's not that simple." Zhao You shook his head and said, "Brother, Chu Huan can march around behind us on a snowy night. It's impossible not to think that we can support us until the reinforcements arrive. If he wants to trap us to death on the mountain, then There are two things to do, the first is to be able to block the reinforcements of the main cavalry with confidence, and the second is to have enough soldiers and horses to trap us on the mountain, but with the current strength in his hands, it is impossible to do these two points, so It is absolutely impossible for him to really trap us to death on the mountain."

"You're right." Xu Chang nodded slightly, "I'm actually very puzzled about one thing now."

"Did the starlings say that the two thousand Northwest cavalry before were fully capable of holding us back until their brigade of cavalry came over, so that we would be trapped head to tail?" Zhao Youdao: "But they But suddenly left the battle, not only did not treat me
