Starting from Xudu and before heading to Qiao County, it was all controlled by the imperial court, which was safe. Therefore, Cao Cao asked to force his troops and traveled 150 miles a day. This also means that except for supper, he would not make rice at other times.

"Is this the rhythm of arriving in Qiao County within five or six days?" Wang Yong's Huo Tou Army was behind with the baggage force. Due to the forced marching, it obviously distanced itself from Cao Cao's troops.

"It's just that this is too messy!" Cai Yan complained directly, "How can such a huge baggage force adapt to the marching of 150 miles a day? The key is that we have to be responsible for the supper every night!"

For her, the march was originally extremely reluctant, but she actually marched urgently. Not only did she have to follow the scheduled route and reach the designated location within the specified time, but she also had to prepare supper and other things within one hour.

It takes a while to remove the materials, not to mention burying the pot and preparing firewood. It can be said that you will start to get busy almost immediately after you arrive at your destination, and there is almost no room for rest.

"After all, after an hour of meal, you have to start sleeping. You have to get up at the next hour of Mao. Before You, you have to reach the next destination, eat at Wu and rest at Hai. Including the morning break, you only have five hours of rest a day. The earlier you eat, the more time you have to rest!" Wenming replied.

Breakfast and lunch do not require burying a pot to make rice, so you can eat dry food directly to solve the problem. Therefore, when you get up at the hour of Mao (5:00 to 6:00 am) to gather, and you will start your battle. You will eat dry food while marching, and drink water when you are thirsty. Take an hour (1:00 am to 2:00 am) for an hour, and eat dry food, and find a cool place to rest.

"With that being said, it is the safest situation to travel around thirty miles per hour. If it rains or other situations, it will be very difficult to wait for thirty miles per hour!" Cai Yan didn't know anything. Generally speaking, it is normal to travel around 100 miles a day. You should know that some places are garbage troops that are 50 miles a day.

"If it rains, you must slow down. The lord completely calculates the marching distance calculated by the limit of the entire army. As long as you work hard, you can actually do it. The war is just a speed. The faster the reaction, the greater the winning side. If we don't let us make a living, don't complain! After all, the three of us are riding horses. Consider those middle and low-level officers and soldiers without horses!" Wang Yong turned around and said.

After Ma Teng swore allegiance to the court, the court used him as an intermediary and bought a lot of Western Liang horses with the Qiang people. Even so, they could only be equipped with the military marquis (500 soldiers under the jurisdiction), and they were all just at the level of transportation. Good horses have been used to form cavalry units. Only by pulling horses and pulling carts can the slow horse be issued to middle-level officers for transportation.

As for the first-level lieutenant level, some are also ordinary second-class war horses, and some are prepared for their own war horses, and others are also mentioned, such as Wang Yong.

"But I don't like riding a horse! My delicate skin will be worn out after riding for a day. Is there no carriage to ride?" Cai Yan complained directly. Yes, this is where she is really depressed.

"If you get used to it, it won't hurt." Wang Yong couldn't help her. In order to adapt to riding a horse, he spent a lot of effort, and there were calluses on the inner side of his legs.

"It will grow calluses, and it will feel very uncomfortable to touch! And if you ride a horse for a long time, your legs will be bent and spread out subconsciously. That look is really ugly!" Cai Yan was still complaining.

"Anyway, no one will tell if he is wearing a long robe..." Wang Yong directly retorted.

"How else do I do housework in a robe?" Cai Yan retorted directly, "Besides, as a servant, you won't feel strange to work in a robe?"

Yes, not everyone can wear Han robes, especially those ordinary people, they are basically just wearing short robes. The long robes are beautiful, but they are not as convenient as short robes.

"Sir, there is an army in front..." Wen Ming suddenly said, on the horizon, he had indeed seen a trace of a army. He thought he had caught up with the army, and it was almost the hour of You anyway.

"What army? We are still a little far from our destination. We probably won't arrive in less than two quarters of an hour. Besides, there is still some time before You hour! By the way, where did the troops come from?!" Cai Yan looked at the sky, calculated the time roughly, refuted it, and then suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"So, the army in front of us may not be our own people?" Wang Yong narrowed his eyes slightly. The distance between the two sides was a little far, but he could probably see the outline of the other party.

Sure enough, it was not the regular army of Cao's army, or it was not the Cao's army at all. A group of guys wearing shabby leather and wooden armor had the weapons in their hands, and there was no unity at all.

"It seems that we have encountered a disaster. The number of people is about 3,000, and they are all soldiers. Be careful!" Wang Yong said slowly, then waved his hand. Soon a soldier helped him hand over the long sword.

Auxiliary soldiers are auxiliary soldiers. Although they are called "soldiers", they have hardly been rigorously trained. Basically, when recruiting soldiers, those who were particularly good at selecting elite troops, and those who were generally selected as ordinary regular troops, who were less physically or good at cooking were arranged to the Fire Head Army and the baggage troops.

In other words, the auxiliary soldiers are completely a group of soldiers who are left behind. Although they may not be all useless people, they cannot be too hopeful. They are not good at killing enemies, or they do not have the determination to kill them, and they are finally driven here.

"So, I can only deal with these three thousand people... Of course it is impossible, right?" Wang Yong sighed, "Let everyone form a formation. Even if they don't expect to kill the enemy to the greatest extent, at least they should protect themselves! Immediately notify the guards to come and support!"

The Guards, the last guards of the large army, function is to protect the baggage troops at such a moment, with a population of about 5,000 and average combat power. It is more about supervision to avoid delays in the reunion time due to delays in the baggage troops.

"Listen to the Cao army in front!" The leader was a man, who was about thirty years old, with a vulgar appearance and a slightly thin figure. He walked up to him, waved the tiger-headed knife in his hand, and looked at Wang Yong and others, "We have shortages of food, grass and horses in our village. If you are willing to give up your love, I promise not to hurt you at all, what about?"

He had already found out that in the end, these parts were all baggage troops, so they must have been left over, and soldiers who were not wanted would come in. The guards had no ability. Although there were 30,000 people, if they really fought, they might not be as good as his three thousand elite troops.

At the same time, he also knew that Cao Cao seemed to be in a hurry to go to Yuzhou, so he marched urgently this time. Perhaps he didn't expect that there would be thieves around Xuchang, so he was probably exhausted when he marched quickly. However, they were waiting for their work. Under various conditions, this would definitely make a big profit!

Not to mention anything else, these horses, armor and food are sold through underground channels, which is worth a lot of money!

"Don't be rampant, I, Yang Li, are here, don't escape!" Yang Li, the captain of the guards, led his army to kill him.

But with this name, Wang Yong really has no impression of it, he is a little worried...
