Gao Shun looked at Liu He and probably acquiesced in the distribution.

He turned back and made a color to the deputy general, who stood up and opened a map.

"According to the latest situation of the war a few hours ago, general Huangfu led his army to catch up with the rebels on Taiping Road. The two sides fought fiercely for one day to the north of Gaodu County, Shangdang county. At nightfall, both sides were injured. Our General Gao judged that the corner was intended to plunder supplies in Gaodu City, but after this battle, the plan was interrupted and had to continue marching and change the target. "

"Oh? How can you get to Gaodu county so soon Liu he was a little surprised.

Gao Shun did not speak, but looked at Liu He.

Liu he understood what he meant and said, "General Gao wants Liu to guess the whereabouts of the Yellow turban army?"

"Not bad."

Liu He looked at the map and said, "general Huangfu's army is located in the southwest. If the enemy wants to plunder supplies, they have to go east and North. However, in the East is the towering mountains. Even if you cross the mountains and walk for hundreds of miles, you can enter Weijun County of Jizhou, which is the base camp of Taiping Road. However, the mountain road is difficult to walk, and it is easy to be overtaken by general Huangfu. What's more, they do not have enough food to support them to walk the long mountain road. So we have to go north. "

Gao Shun's face was expressionless and did not express any views. Liu he went on.

"When his army went north, he would first arrive at Sheshi county. However, the county's population was only a few thousand, the mountains were crisscrossed, and there were not many rivers. It could be said that the land was poor and the people were poor. Even if the whole county was turned upside down, it was impossible to gather enough food for his tens of thousands of troops. Therefore, he had no choice but to continue northward and get supplies from the eldest son City, the seat of Shangdang county."

Liu He took a look at Gao Shun and saw that he still had no expression. However, there was a look of approval in his eyes. He knew that he was right.

"I don't know how many soldiers and horses Shangdang county has assembled now?"

Gao Shun's deputy general pointed to the map and said, "Shangdang county has five thousand soldiers. Zhao Taishou divided them into two parts, the eldest son city and Huguan each have 2500 soldiers."

"Stupid! What a fool Liu he couldn't help but curse.

"The troops are weak in nature, but they are divided into two places. It seems that they are guarding the two places, but in fact, they are unable to guard both places. This person will miss the important things!"

Gao Shun seldom said, "what do you think of Liu county magistrate?"

Liu he was not polite, and said, "we should send someone to inform the Shangdang governor immediately, and take the Huguan garrison back to the eldest son city. As long as we keep the city and the other party's grain and grass are exhausted, we will not attack ourselves. If the eldest son city is broken and the enemy can get enough food supply, only a few thousand garrisons will not be able to defend Huguan. When the enemy invades Huguan, they will be able to resist the army of general Huangfu by virtue of natural danger and wait for Jizhou reinforcements, and then they can go out of Huguan and return to Weijun all the way. "

Gao Shun nods slightly, Liu he continues to say.

"After two hundred Li, Zhang's army will not be able to finish his march to the north of Huangbu City, but he will not be able to wait until he reaches the city of two hundred Li, but he will not be able to catch up with the Changzi city for 30 days, but he will not be able to catch up with the Changzi army after he has been defeated for 30 days."

At this time, Guan Yu said: "our army started from Yangyi County, but we had to walk more than 500 miles. It would take at least five days to get there. The Zhao Taishou was afraid that he could not keep these two days."

Liu He's army of more than 6000 had only 200 cavalry soldiers, and the rest were infantry soldiers, while gaoshun's troops were all infantry soldiers. Even though the two armies were well-trained, the marching speed could not be too fast.

"Well, cavalry, cavalry, when can I have a strong cavalry force of tens of thousands of people?"

Liu he sighed in his heart.

Even with the support of Zhang and Su, Liu he was unable to develop cavalry on a large scale because of the limitation of personnel, training and maintenance costs. This is a big worry for Liu He.

"Well, a dead horse is a living horse doctor."

Liu He bit his teeth and said, "Yunchang, you lead the cavalry to take three days' dry food with you. After a while, you can start off immediately. You must arrive at the eldest son city in the morning after tomorrow! The rest of the army will rest here for an hour. Then they will go on their way in the starry night and strive to finish the 500 Li journey in four days

After that, Liu he turned his head and looked at Gao Shun: "I don't know what General Gao thinks?"

Gao Shun rarely showed a trace of surprise.

"Wonderful, wonderful."

Then, he took out an order arrow from his arms and gave it to the deputy general.

"This is the order arrow of the governor. You send someone to hold the arrow. The quick horse will inform Zhao Taishou of the dispatch arrangement just mentioned by Liu county magistrate!"

"Here it is

Liu he held Guan Yu's hand and said, "you're going to be careful. If you want to support a day, it's really very dangerous. If you want to support yourself for a day, you can't do it without cloud Chang. When we go, we must remember that cavalry should give priority to mobility. We should give priority to left and right guerrillas, so that they can't attack the city with all their strength. Don't fall into a fierce battle! "

Guan Yu was moved: "don't worry, brother! If I can't keep the city, I'd like to sacrifice myself for the country! ""Good!" Gao Shun suddenly cried out.

"Loyal and righteous, I admire you! Water instead of wine, to general Guan! "

Gao Shun holds up a pottery bowl. His assistant general also takes one and hands it to Guan Yu.

Guan Yu originally looked down upon Gao Shun, an outsider. Seeing that he was also a man of temperament, Guan Yu immediately changed his outlook on Gao Shun. He immediately took over the pottery bowl and drank it down.

The soldiers of the Anmin army soon finished cooking. After eating, the horses were fed, and Guan Yu led more than 200 cavalry troops to the south along the official road.

Liu he stood up and clasped his fist at Gao Shun and said, "General Gao, it's boring to drive so long. How about taking a gamble with the general

Gao Shun looked at Liu He curiously: "what do you mean?"

Liu he said with a smile: "I've heard for a long time that under the governor's account, he was the first to rule the army. He Baicai was willing to compare with the general. Who will arrive at the eldest son city first in this March

Gao Shun is slightly stunned.

"Inspiring morale, wonderful!"

"Ha ha, I didn't expect to be seen through by the general."

Liu He's move did inspire the morale of the soldiers of the two armies, but it was not all about it.

At this time, Liu He has regarded Gao Shun as his own man. No matter who he is now, he has to find a way to dig this corner.

In order to get him out of the big tree of the governor's office and to take refuge in his own county magistrate, Gao Shun's character requires him to be fully convinced.

Gao Shun is good at running the army and unifying the army. If he is better than him in this respect, he will be convinced of himself.

Gao Shun asked, "what is a bet?"

Liu He of course can not directly put forward to the other party lost to transfer to their own account this kind of words.

"How about taking armor as a bet?"

Gao Shun takes a look at Liu He's armor. It's sewn carefully and solidly. It's much stronger than his own.

"Gao won't take advantage of it. If you lose, I will give you the sword and armor."

"Well, it's a deal!"

Liu he laughed in his heart.

Gao Shun didn't know that the armor Liu he said was his own personal gold silk armor, and its value was so high, not to mention Gao Shun's Sabre and armor. Even if there were another 10 sets or 100 sets, it would be far less than that.

There are three things in a general's mind. They regard them as life, and they never give them easily: weapons, armor, and horses. The reason why they ask for this is to narrow the distance between the two sides.

As for the gold silk armor, if Gao shunzhen one day turned to himself, such a talented person, would he be reluctant to build a set of the same armor for him?

As the saying goes, "speed is the most important thing in war". Both sides did not delay much. After a little rest, they clasped hands and said goodbye, and each began a rapid march.
