Chapter 156

At dusk, the army was forced to camp in the wilderness by the covetous cavalry on the hill.

In order to prevent the other party from attacking at night, not only a ditch was dug around the camp, but also a half meter high wall was piled with the soil in the ditch.

Half a meter high, the war horse can easily cross with a jump, but it will fall into the pit and the horse stumbles.

Fortunately, there are many people and great strength, and such a project is nothing. Infantry and teenagers are on guard, the rear camp sets up tents, tents, cooks, war soldiers and engineers dig ditches and pile walls. More than 30000 people are busy.

This is the advantage of strict hierarchy and strict discipline. As long as king Qin gives an order, everyone will perform their duties and be in good order.

At night, the camp is brightly lit. Ten thousand soldiers are divided into three waves to take turns on duty. The pro guard camp takes turns to supervise. Whoever dares to neglect his duty will be beheaded.

Qin Huan didn't dare to be careless.

In the commander's big account, more than a dozen battalion commanders looked very ugly. After all, more than 30000 people were blocked here by 3000 people. It was too fucking oppressive.

Although Qin Huan was annoyed, he couldn't show it on his face. Instead, he stared at Qin Tieshen and said, "why did so many cavalry attack and the sentry didn't report back in advance?"

"Chief, none of the brothers who went to the east to explore came back. Now I think they should be killed by the other party's night." Qin tie replied bitterly.

"The Sentinels sent out in the future should return at a specified time."

Qin Huan didn't punish too much. Most of the people in the guard camp came from hunters. They are good at climbing mountains and trees, but the terrain around them is still open. In addition, they have just learned to ride horses. Where is Guan Ning's iron cavalry that doesn't accept opponents at night?

"Brother, we are now entangled by Guan Ning's iron cavalry of Cao Bianjiao. Once the man surnamed Hong catches up with the army, it will be bad. It's only more than 20 miles away from entering the mountain. Otherwise, let's run to the mountain all night?"

"I think it's OK. Their cavalry may not dare to catch up. One night is enough for us to run into the mountain."

When Niu Er finished, the commanders of the battle camp nodded.

"Nonsense, this running team will certainly break up. Where can we find it when we enter the mountain? Besides, what if the other party comes up? "

Seeing that they were afraid of such a bad idea, the red warbler immediately cheered.

"Is it difficult not to run and wait to die?" Niu Er has no good way. Obviously, he has a shadow over Hong Chengchou and Cao Bianjiao.

It's no wonder these old thieves are afraid of this. The shadow of people's famous trees is actually the anti thieves in the hands of Hong Chengchou and Cao Bianjiao who have died in recent years. There are not 100000 but 80000, including a large number of heads and small heads.

It can be said that Hong Chengchou's credit is definitely the greatest and his means are the sharpest in the suppression of various righteous armies.

In history, if Chongzhen hadn't been confused, he might not have really wiped out all the rebel armies in the end.

"You don't have to worry. According to Cao Cao, Hong Chengchou has transferred some troops to Xiangyang. If you can catch up, you will die. There's nothing we can do with them. Can't we clean up the infantry?

Everyone just go back and sleep. Others are afraid of him. Butcher Hong, but I'm not afraid. If he really dares to catch up, let's see who's the fucking butcher and who's the pig and sheep! "

Qin Huan waved his hand to stop the quarrel. Then he said slowly. When he finally got up, he was very aggressive.

Seeing that King Hua was so confident, they were relieved to think of the victories in the past. They didn't argue to run to the mountains all night.

Cao Bianjiao tried it at night. Seeing that the other side's defense was quite tight, he had to give up and retreat thirty miles away with his cavalry.

Obviously, he was afraid of the other party's sneak attack at night, but he left a sentry to keep a close watch.

The next day, the army did not stay in the original, but lined up, slowly moving towards the northwest, out of 100 meters, we had to stop and adjust.

As a result, at the end of the day, Cao Bianjiao didn't even come five miles, but Cao Bianjiao would come up with cavalry from time to time and bite twice. He was so angry that all the heroes scolded one after another.

Qin Huan was secretly gnashing his teeth. In the future, he must vigorously develop cavalry, or you can't help it if people don't take the initiative to attack Tartars, infantry and firearm soldiers in the future.

Looking at the cavalry running back and forth, he found that he underestimated the role of cavalry in ancient times again.

Its importance is not inferior to that of firearm soldiers, but even more important. An army can still be invincible in the field without firearm soldiers, but it must not lack cavalry.

Cao Bianjiao saw that the other party's more than 30000 people were always in a group. He was helpless. He had to send people to inform Hong Chengchou.

When Hong Chengchou learned that Cao Bianjiao had really dragged the anti thief across the Han River, he was overjoyed and kept urging the army of Zhushan.

As a result, on the third day, he crossed the Han River with 7000 troops and rushed to kill them.

"Bian Jiao, this time you have made an unparalleled feat. When you destroy the queen Xiaohua, I will play the holy emperor for you!"

As soon as they met, Hong Chengchou said with a little excitement.

"Thank you, governor!"

Cao Bianjiao first hugged his fist, then looked at the soldiers and horses behind him, and said with a dignified face: "commander, it is said that this anti thief is also a real evil sect. It is not only well-trained, well-equipped, and there is evidence for advance and retreat. At the end of these two days, there will be at least 20000 soldiers to fight, of which half are elite and firearm soldiers."

"Oh?"

Hong Chengchou was slightly stunned. Cao Bianjiao's temperament could not be clearer. It was absolutely fearless. He dared to take the role of a general among the ten thousand armies. Now if he said this, he must not get a bargain in the past two days.

Originally, he attached great importance to this anti thief, but now he dare not take it lightly and played a twelve point spirit.

When Cao Bianjiao took Hong Chengchou to the hill and looked at the army in the distant wilderness, Hong Laogou's face suddenly became dignified.

As the saying goes, the layman watches the excitement and the expert watches the doorway. Just at a glance, the old dog knows that even with 3000 guanning cavalry, it is difficult to win each other with 7000 troops and horses he brings.

"My Lord, it's better to let general Cao lead the cavalry to continue to contain the thief army. Our army detours to the entrance of the mountain, blocks the way of the thief army into the mountain, leads the left general army to arrive, encircles the other party and annihilates it in one fell swoop."

Qian Gao, an aide on the side, also spoke secretly. He also saw it. The supervisor was afraid that he was not sure to fight with the other side, so he thought about it and said.

Hong Chengchou turned his back and shook his head like a rattle: "no, the entrance to the mountain is miles wide. The thief army is good at climbing mountains and drilling forests. Once he makes a frontal attack and divides troops to climb mountains and detour, it will be difficult for him to echo each other. It's better to fight here!"

Once you detour to the mountain pass for defense, you seem to have an advantage, but in fact you suffer a loss. Because the mountain pass is too wide, there is no big difference between rush and field, and it will greatly weaken the role that cavalry can play.

The other side was also equipped with a large number of bows, arrows and firearms. Once 7000 people were not guarded, they were killed and abandoned their armor. The whole army was defeated, and the cavalry couldn't do anything to rescue.

In the field here, there are 3000 guanning cavalry in hand. Even if he can't win, he can remain invincible.

When Qian Gao thought about it, he also understood that the governor would rather fight with the thief army in the field in order to take care of his lifetime fame, and would never take risks in the mountain pass.
