The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 457 Chapter 456 West Wind (23)

While the army was gathering outside Juyan City, Zhang Yan ordered that the thunderbolt bullets buried under the ground of Juyan City be carefully dug out, and then all of them were gathered together, all brought by his subordinates, and brought After having enough dry food and water, with Ayub as the guide, he formally went to Jiluo Mountain.

Before leaving, Zhang Yan specially left [-] soldiers who had lost their horses to be stationed in Juyan City, and sent scouts to inform Ma Teng that Ma Teng would send troops to reinforce Juyan City.

Juyan City is a strategically important place, and it is also the only oasis within a radius of hundreds of miles. This place must not be lost.

After the army was assembled, all the soldiers were gearing up. It had been more than half a month, and the big battle they were looking forward to had never come. This time, they could gallop on the battlefield and make great achievements.

More than 2 cavalry were divided into several parts. Zhang Yan, Ayub, Ma Chao, and Tai Shici walked in the front, Pang De and Ma Dai walked in the middle, and Xu Chu, Pang Tong, and Yang Fu walked in the back, each holding a torch. In this silent night, a long fire dragon formed, illuminating everything around them, and they approached Jiluo Mountain step by step with the fire of revenge that symbolized the light.

About 20 miles out of Juyan City, a group of people entered the Gobi Desert. The Gobi Desert was full of rocks, and walking was extremely slow. Moreover, the Gobi Desert, which had lost the scorching sun, was icy cold everywhere.However, in the daytime, the Gobi Desert will be as hot as an oven under the scorching sun. Therefore, no matter what, you must go out of the Gobi Desert as quickly as possible to avoid the high temperature and exposure during the day.

Fortunately, there was Ayub as a guide. He rode a brown war horse and held a torch in his hand. He walked in the forefront of the entire army, and then walked along the marks left by himself.

Although Ayub was young, he was extremely smart. A few years ago, when he crossed the Gobi Desert for the first time, he almost died here. Fortunately, he met a caravan. The team rescued him and took him out of the Gobi Desert.It was only later that Ayub learned that the Gobi Desert was called the ghost domain. Once humans and animals entered the Gobi Desert, they would go astray, unable to get out of the Gobi Desert, and thus be trapped to death in this Gobi Desert.

Originally, this Gobi Desert was normal. Although it was difficult to walk, it would not be trapped to death here.But when the Han captured Juyan City and established a vassal state here, in order to prevent the Huns from invading Juyan City from Mobei, one of the vassal state captains brought 3000 people into the barren Gobi Desert. Some transformations have been carried out here, and a maze has been arranged with these clusters of rocks. Anyone who enters this area will lose their way. They have made great contributions to resisting the invasion of the Huns.

From the setting up of this maze until the death of the captain of the vassal state, tens of thousands of Huns were trapped to death on this Gobi Desert.

When the captain of the vassal state arrived at the Gobi Desert for the last time before his death, he saw piles of bones in the maze, including some goods left by the caravan, and felt a little bit unbearable.It wasn't until this time that the captain of the subordinate country felt that he had done things a little too badly, so he told his son how to get out of this maze, so that his son would remember it firmly and stay here Near the Gobi Desert, it is specially used to bring out the caravans that have strayed into the maze.

Later, his son became the guardian of this maze, and no less than ten thousand people were rescued from him.

Among them are the clever caravans, who have firmly remembered how to get out of this maze. Since then, the maze has become an alternative refuge for these caravans. Entering this Gobi Desert, those predators did not dare to enter this place called ghost domain without authorization, so they had no choice but to let it go.

And Ayub is a very smart person. After walking through the Gobi Desert once, he firmly remembered how to get out, and left a mark that only he could understand along the way, so that he could pass here in the future. At that time, I lost my way again.

More than 2 troops, under the leadership of Ayub, quickly crossed the Gobi Desert, and when the last cavalry walked out of the Gobi Desert, the sky was bright, the sun rose from the east, and the golden sun shone On the body of this army, it seems that this army has been shrouded in a layer of holy light.

After leaving the Great Gobi Desert, there was a flat prairie, and the advantages of the cavalry were immediately brought into play. After a group of fifty miles galloped, they finally showed signs of exhaustion, so they found a nearby wood that could provide shade and rest.

So all the horses got into the woods, hid in the shade of the trees, slept on the ground, and had a good rest.

The grassland area is an extremely open area, and any wind and grass can be seen from a long distance, so marching during the day is very dangerous to expose the target.

According to Ayub, although the Xianbei people are busy dealing with Hu Yanhui's coalition forces in Jinwei Mountain, they have not relaxed their defenses in the Jiluo Mountain area at all. The patrol team and patrol locations have even doubled than usual. Besides, there are dense patrol teams, each patrol team has about [-] riders, if they collide with them, they will be discovered, and it will not have any sneak attack effect at all.

That's why Zhang Yancai decided to recharge his energy during the day and smear him at night. Anyway, with Ayub as his guide, he wouldn't get lost.

Most of the people were exhausted, and fell asleep after falling down, leaving only a few people standing guard outside the woods, and changing the guard in time, so as not to make the soldiers feel tired.

Unknowingly, when they all woke up, it was already late at night, and there was still about 200 miles away from Jiluo Mountain. Zhang Yan regrouped the army and embarked on the journey again. There are still sixty miles to stop, and then send scouts to inquire about the news, pay attention to the time interval and location of the Xianbei patrols, and see if they can use the loopholes to directly enter the heartland of the Xianbei people.While the rest are quietly waiting in the habitat.

About an hour later, the scouts sent out returned one after another and reported to Zhang Yan the situation of the Xianbei patrol team.

After careful analysis, Zhang Yan finally found a few places with relatively loose defenses, ordered to enter from these places in batches, and then united to meet at Jiluo Mountain.

However, before that, let the soldiers have a good rest. Only when they are in good spirits can they win the battle.

After another day's rest, at night, Zhang Yan divided the army into eight parts. He personally led Pang Tong and Ayub as one part, while Tai Shici, Xu Chu, Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Pang De, Wang Shuang, Yang Fu's seven men each lead part of the troops.

There were four loopholes for the Xianbei people. The eight troops were divided into four groups, and they headed towards Jiluo Mountain from four different directions. When they entered the heartland of the Xianbei people, the Fourth Route Army was divided into two again. To launch an attack on the Xianbei people in Jiluo Mountain, each part of the army carried a part of thunderbolts. After entering the Xianbei camp, the main target of the attack was the Shan Yuting of the Xianbei people, and for the purpose of creating chaos, completely disrupted the entire Xianbei people camp.

If you don't do this, the Xianbei people have a large number of people after all, and they are all people on horseback. They are soldiers on horseback and bows and arrows. Once the Xianbei people react, it will be very disadvantageous to them.

The combat order reached everyone, and everyone put in a lot of energy, gearing up, eager to try, and those who went to the battlefield for the first time and changed from militiamen to soldiers were especially excited.From the moment Zhang Yan recruited militiamen, they turned into militiamen. They have been soldiers for almost several years. Apart from maintaining local law and order, they have never been on the battlefield.

When Zhang Yan pacified Hebei, he once transferred the militiamen to the battlefield, but they only took on the task of transporting food and grass, and never confronted the enemy head-on.Moreover, many of these militiamen are used to this kind of military force, and there are also many capable people who urgently need a war, a glorious battle that belongs to them, in order to achieve the goal of making contributions.

After the order was issued, the army was divided into four groups, Zhang Yan and Tai Shici all the way, Ma Chao and Yang Fu all the way, Xu Chu and Ma Dai all the way, Pang De and Wang Shuang all the way, four groups of soldiers and horses arrived at four locations respectively, and then appeared When there is a leak, run in quickly to avoid trouble.

With careful planning and strict organization, Zhang Yan's four-way army entered the heartland of the Xianbei people successively very smoothly. Once they entered, they were like wild horses that had run wild, and they ran away in the dark. .

The Fourth Route Army ran for more than 30 miles in a row, and they could vaguely see the Xianbei people's vaults and the bonfires burning in the wild, but the Fourth Route Army ignored these and went straight to the heart.

The further you go, the more dome houses, the more people there are, and the bonfires are everywhere. Most of the Xianbei people form a circle, dancing in front of the bonfire, drinking kumiss, eating roast mutton, Laughter, a peaceful atmosphere.

However, no one noticed that the four-way army suddenly split into two and headed in different directions. Without lighting a torch, they kept walking in the darkness, hiding their identities.

The scene of thousands of galloping horses has long been accustomed to the Xianbei people. These days, the Xianbei people are fighting against the Huns in Jinwei Mountain, and there will be scenes of thousands of galloping horses almost every day, coming and going in the habitat of the Xianbei people.Even if there is no war, those warriors who go hunting during the day will return with a full load at this time, and the galloping horses are also such a scene.

Although from time to time there will be Xianbei people looking towards the place where the horses are galloping, but because the night is shrouded in darkness, they can't see anyone except the people by the bonfire. They just drink and eat meat by themselves. Dancing around the bonfire, everything is so comfortable and peaceful, no one can imagine that they will suffer a heavy disaster soon.
