As the firelight lit up, the Qiang people who took advantage of the cover of the night seemed to have become invisible in an instant.

Zhao Yun referred to the experience of many veterans in the layout of the camp.

Soldiers would hang bucklers around their tents to protect them from enemy arrows.

Moreover, the leather they brought would be spread on boards and placed around the camp to effectively prevent wind and bows and arrows.

Zhao Yun has always been cautious, so this time, his caution paid off for him.

In the Huben camp, the soldiers are also equipped with certain bows and crossbows.

At this time, strong bows and powerful crossbows were prepared.

As the arrows shot out, the man who was shooting arrows in the distance was knocked down by one arrow.

At this time, Zhao Yun also drew his bow and arrows and shot the Qiang people.

Zhao Yun's archery skills, like his marksmanship, are among the best of this era.

There are no missed arrows, and all the targets hit are vital.

When the Qiang people climbed over fences, giant deer, and horses, they were shot by arrows.

After finally letting go of the fence, pushing away the giant deer and resisting the horse, he was stabbed to the ground by a soldier from the Huben camp.

It takes less than three quarters of an hour.

The Qiang people left hundreds of corpses behind and retreated in embarrassment.

At this time, Huben Camp Captain Gao Pei came to Zhao Yun and asked,"General, do you want to pursue me?"

Zhao Yun shook his head and said,"It's too dark, be careful of an ambush."

"Here."Gao Pei then went to deliver the order.

Zhao Yun was not greedy for small gains and defeated the Qiang people, let alone a small victory in a battle.

If he was greedy for merit and rushed forward, the consequences would be disastrous.

Over the years, Zhao Yun often looked at the art of war and combined his own leadership Experience.

Now Zhao Yun's focus in using troops is 'stability'.

If he can fight, he will fight. If he can't fight, he won't fight.

Although there is no strategy, there is only righteousness and no surprise, but there has never been a defeat, and the loss of soldiers has always been the same. lowest

……

Unlike Zhao Yun, Zhang He was too flexible in leading his troops.

Zhang He led the cavalry and was already heading towards the hinterland of the Qiang people.

Along the way, Zhang He sent people to search for the dung of horses, cattle and sheep along the pastures and rivers.

Most Qiang people make a living by herding.

Only a small number of Qiang people were forced into the mountains and forests and forced to make a living by hunting and farming.

Through the freshness of the feces of horses, cattle and sheep, we can judge whether there are Qiang people passing by recently.

If there is horse manure but no horses, this method is very simple.

The cavalry commanded by Zhang He quickly grasped the situation, and the scouts from the light cavalry battalion who went out were obviously more professional.

They will provide more accurate reports

"Two pillars of smoke!"

At this time, Zhang He found a plume of smoke appearing in the southwest.

"General, look over there!"

After a while, two pillars of smoke also appeared in the southeast.

There were two groups of Qiang cavalry nearby. Are they trying to outflank them?

Soon, another pillar of smoke appeared behind Zhang He.

"General, there is a plume of smoke from behind!"

At the reminder of his subordinates, Zhang He looked behind.

Three Qiang cavalry wanted to intercept them!

Zhang He thought for a while and said:"Li Mo."

Li Mo, the captain of the school, came behind Zhang He.

Zhang He said:"You lead four thousand cavalry to the southeast."

"Here." Li Mo replied.

Then Zhang He led a thousand cavalry, dismounted and crossed the valley, preparing to detour back to the enemy's rear in the southeast.

Zhang He wanted to annihilate the cavalry.

As for the Qiang cavalry in the southwest and the rear, Zhang He did not They are in a hurry to deal with them.

It is better to cut off one of the fingers than to hurt them.

Zhang He believes that it is better to find opportunities to annihilate the enemy than to defeat them. The valley they are in now has rugged roads nearby, which is not conducive to large-scale cavalry charges.

And the Qiang people are obviously They were familiar with the terrain.

Therefore, they planned to wipe out all the Zhou troops who rushed into the hinterland.

However, Zhang He took advantage of the strategy and also used the terrain.

It is true that the mountainous area is not suitable for cavalry maneuvers, but it is not that the cavalry led by Zhang He cannot dismount and fight.

By climbing over the valley on two legs and making a circuitous route, you can reach the rear of the Qiang people.

In the past, Duan Jiong often divided his troops against the Qiang people. Some of them attracted the main force of the Qiang people, and some of them made a circuitous route to kill the Qiang people by surprise.

……

On both sides of the valley, the Qiang people were ready.

They prepared a large number of stones on both sides of the valley.

If the Zhou cavalry dare to come, they will never come back.

They also have bows and arrows, a large number of arrows, enough to allow them to guard the heights of the valley.

At the same time, there are ambushes in the valley. As long as the Zhou army is in ambush, the ambush troops in the valley will rush out and catch the Zhou army by surprise.

The Zhou army did not understand the terrain in this area at all and would definitely be ambushed by them.

"Gu~gugu~~"

At this time, a strange bird-like cry came from the distance

"Get ready, Zhou Jun is coming!"

"Sure enough, as the military advisor said, Zhou Jun chose to break out."

In order to make full use of the Qiang people's fighting power, Han Sui sent scribes to various ministries and asked them to serve as military advisors to strengthen the connection between Han Sui and the Qiang people.

It was the scribes' plan to use the terrain to surround and ambush Zhang He.

In their It seems that once the Zhou army found out that they were surrounded, they would panic and choose to break out all the way.

No matter which way they chose, it was a dead end.

However, they underestimated Zhang He.
