God said the world

Chapter 657 Battle Thirteen

"Boss, this army is not simple. There is a team of patrolmen patrolling every ten steps, and the outer patrol is more stringent. There is a team of cavalry in the middle for maneuvering. If there is any movement, The cavalry will come out immediately." A tall man with thick muscles and an ax on his back, wearing animal skins as clothes, said to a handsome man.

All around the man were big men like this, and the handsome man was Zhan Shisan who had been away from Xiliang for a long time like Tian Yinke.

After Zhan Shisan heard the news, he frowned: "It seems difficult to deal with. Has the person sent to find the Xiliang horse thief returned?"

"Boss, I just went out not long ago."

In fact, Zhan Shisan led [-] men to wander around Xiliang territory. On the one hand, he wanted to attack the enemy army, and on the other hand, he wanted to raid the enemy's rear. The [-]-odd army is definitely not the Xiliang army. Apart from the Xiliang army, Xiliang horse bandits, foreign cavalry and Guan Shanyue's army, there are no other forces in Xiliang territory. The elite army in front of us, There is a big difference with the foreign cavalry. The foreign cavalry has one man and one horse, and there is no infantry, so this army is likely to be Guan Shanyue's rear army.

But no matter what, since Zhan Shisan met, he had to create some trouble for them, but it was impossible to head-on with the enemy's 7000 troops with 30 of his own.

"That's it, then do you have any other discoveries?" Indeed, Zhan Shisan also knew that he was a little anxious to tell Absolute Boring the news.

"Boss, their army is very interesting. All of them carry a thick-backed ghost knife, and each of them carries a small crossbow and a bag of crossbow bolts at their waists. Only the cavalry carry long weapons."

"What?" Zhan Shisan felt a little weird the more he heard it, but he couldn't tell exactly what was weird.

"Boss, is there a problem?"

"You said that the infantry used short crossbows, while the cavalry used long weapons?" Zhan Shisan asked suspiciously.

"Yes." The big man didn't know what Zhan Shisan was thinking, so he nodded in response.

"How many cavalry do they have?"

"Probably no more than [-]."

"Strange, what kind of army is this? There are so many infantry? There are only less than [-] cavalry?" Zhan Shisan still didn't figure it out, but he was thinking about other things, just to create some trouble for this army. thing.

"Bring the map." Zhan Shisan called out.

Soon there was a big man with a map drawn from animal skins spread out on the stone.

"Mark their locations."

Hearing what Zhan Shisan said, the big man who came back from the investigation searched on the map, picked up a stone after confirming it, and put it on the map: "Boss, this is here."

"Half a month's journey..." Zhan Shisan held his chin and stared at the map in a daze.

The big men in front of Zhan Shisan looked at each other, and said softly: "Boss..." Seeing that Zhan Shisan didn't respond, he shouted a few more words: "Boss...boss..."

"Oh!" Zhan Shisan came back to his senses and said, "Did the Xiliang horse thief bring it?"

When asked by Zhan Shisan, several big men froze and shook their heads and said, "No." For a moment, they forgot what they wanted to say.

"Then why call me?" Zhan Shisan asked inexplicably.

"This..." The big man looked confused, and couldn't think of what he wanted to say at all, so he asked his companion, "What did I want to say just now?"

"It seems... like half a month?"

"Half a month?" Zhan Shisan was taken aback, what half a month?Immediately understood: "Oh, did I just say that they are only half a month away from Xiliang City?"

"That's right, that's it." The big man patted his head and said.

Zhan Shisan looked at the map and asked, "Is there a problem?"

"Boss, of course there is a problem."

buzzing...

Zhan Shisan stared at his eyes, his ears were buzzing, and said, "How many times have I told you, can you stop making such a fuss and yell like nothing?"

The big man had an apologetic expression on his face, he was indeed "somewhat" louder when he spoke in a moment of impatience, and said in a low voice, "Boss, I'm sorry, don't dare to..."

Zhan Shisan rubbed his ears, finally heard what he was saying behind, and waved his hand: "Don't keep giving me the next time, I don't know how many times you have."

"There really isn't a next time, boss, please forgive me this time..." Seeing Zhan Shisan's impatient face, the big man was so frightened that he was about to cry.

Seeing this, Zhan Shisan hastily said: "Forgive, forgive me, how can I not forgive you..." Later, Zhan Shisan didn't say anything, a group of elders were crying, you can bear it yourself, but I can't bear it.

The big man was overjoyed, and got back to the topic: "Boss, I just wanted to say that you have been wrong for half a month."

"Oh." Zhan Shisan focused on the map.

"They are all lightly armed. It is estimated that if they march at full speed, they can reach Xiliang City in about seven or eight days."

Zhan Shisan suddenly raised his head. Although he was focusing on the map, he was also paying attention to what the big man said. He couldn't help but be surprised that the time was cut in half?

"really?"

"Boss, how dare we lie to you."

"What are you doing? Boss is in a hurry."

"We didn't think about it either. Who knew that these horse thieves were so hard to find. Usually, you can catch dozens of them by walking around casually. Today is a good day. Our brothers ran more than ten laps and only saw three."

At this time, when Zhan Shisan heard the noise outside, he knew that the person he sent out to find the Xiliang horse thief had returned.

Zhan Shisan looked at the three horse thieves in front of him with a look of warmth and anger, and said in a bad tone: "What have you all been doing? Why have you not seen any of your people in this area?" It was related to Xiliang City, and the horse thieves in Xiliang They were everywhere, but it took so long to find them, which made Zhan Shisan doubt whether the horse bandits in Xiliang were doing their best for Xiliang City.

"My lord, it was originally like this, but our brigade escorted the villagers in the city to the desert the day before yesterday, and the maximum number of people staying here is no more than 1000." The Xiliang horse thief did not dare to be afraid because of Zhan Shisan's anger, but It's a matter of course.

"Going to the desert? What's going on?" After all, Zhan Shisan had no idea about the relocation of Loulan.

When the Xiliang horse thief wanted to explain, Zhan Shisan immediately interrupted their words. Since everyone has moved, it means that they are absolutely bored. They agreed to this matter. Whether they know it or not is the same, or a major issue: "Now The three of you immediately convey what I said back to Xiliang City, and you must personally convey it to the generals or the city lord in the city, you know?"

"I understand." The three horse thieves responded in unison.

After sending the Xiliang horse thief away, Zhan Shisan felt uneasy, but the Xiliang horse thief was good at conveying the news, so he had no choice but to trust them.

Of course, the three Xiliang horse thieves were shocked when they heard the news, and they didn’t dare to be negligent. They finally saw that the environment in Xiliang had improved, and the villagers gradually lived a better life. We have lived in Xiliang for generations, how can we tolerate outsiders destroying our homeland?
What's more, the horse thieves who stayed in Xiliang were all determined to live and die with Xiliang City, and they had already put their personal life and death aside.

However, after knowing that this army has such a marching speed, Zhan Shisan took two people to investigate in person. It's not that he didn't believe the words of the big man under him, but that Zhan Shisan had to observe carefully. He always felt that this army was not simple. Shanyue was waiting for this army so that she didn't march towards Xiliang City. Although 30 people is a lot, it should not only be the number of people, but also other things.

What Zhan Shisan saw, just as his subordinates said before, was heavily guarded, and there was no gap at all, but gradually, Zhan Shisan saw something.

This army did not wear tents or other materials, and did not even have a baggage cart. One out of every ten people carried a marching pot. In addition, everyone carried a bag of things. If the estimate is not wrong, it should be It is food.

No wonder the marching speed can be so fast. It turned out that apart from the weapons, they only brought enough rations and nothing extra. They even saved the tents for sleeping, which is really not easy.

Of course, the most important purpose of Zhan Shisan's observation here is to see if there is any place to break through, to disturb the enemy army so that they dare not march easily, but there is absolutely no chance, Zhan Shisan had to give up this idea .

However, when he left, Zhan Shisan had a smirk on his face.

When the big men saw their boss's expression, they knew that the boss had already made up his mind, and couldn't help asking curiously, "Boss, what are you going to do?"

"Hey... Hey, you all go find a big pile of hay and come back for me, and get it wet again, but don't make it so wet that I can't work." There are some things that need to be clearly explained to these big bastards, otherwise they will get wet directly. Soak the hay in water to make it completely wet.

Before long, everything was ready.

Then, Zhan Shisan pointed to the map and said: "Take a hundred brothers and lead me here, as many as there are, you'd better run fast, otherwise I won't bury them if they die. "

"Wow, the boss is really cruel... He even wants to lure them into the mountains to ambush them, so let's go here."

"Okay, look at the time..." Halfway through speaking, Zhan Shisan hurriedly changed his words: "You are hungry, so go and lure them, you know?"

"Oh, listen to your boss."

If I let them see the time, I'm afraid they won't even know what time it is when it gets dark...

Then, Zhan Shisan led thousands of people and ran quickly to the designated mountain range with slightly wet dry grass. Their destination was the Wild Wolf Valley.

Although the Snow Wolf King went to the desert with the Desert King, his wild wolf family still stayed in the Wild Wolf Valley. After a period of investigation, Zhan Shisan learned from the horse thief in Xiliang that there are countless people in the Wild Wolf Valley. Wild wolf, tell Zhan Shisan to be careful, it's best not to go there.

Zhan Shisan still had some understanding of the combat power of wild wolves, so he happened to use wild wolves to deal with the enemy.
