After determining the target, Lan Yu issued an order.

A terrible order.

He distributed all the remaining grain in his hands, and then ordered the soldiers to cook in pots and replenish their strength on the spot.

When issuing the order, he also issued a requirement: it is strictly forbidden to light fires and smoke! (How to cook without fire, this is really a problem!)

Because as long as there is a little smoke in the desert, the enemy can easily detect it.

This is almost digging your own grave.

The enemy has not yet discovered it, but food and grass have been cut off. This is no different from committing suicide.

At the same time, Lan Yu, who had consumed the remaining food, looked at the long stretch of yellow sand in front of him and pointed at the desolate Gobi ahead. His uncertain future seemed to be conveying a signal in his heart.

That's a soldier's natural instinct.

His intuition told him that the enemy was not far away.

As long as he moves forward a little further, he can find traces of the enemy.

With this almost suicidal mentality, Lan Yu ordered the troops to continue moving forward.

At the same time, in order to inspire the soldiers, he used his almost suicidal confidence to tell everyone that our enemy is ahead and our victory is at hand.

And now we have no water or food.

We are already in a dead end.

But I want to tell you.

Put him to death, and then live.

Since we have no water or food, we should move forward lightly and head towards the enemy's food and water sources.

There are not only food and water sources there, but also countless gold, silver, jewelry, carriages, horses, cattle and sheep.

Only when we get there can we reach the front line of victory.

All we can do now is keep moving forward.

Go forward again.

We will win the final victory by adhering to our beliefs as we move forward.

At this time, Lan Yu stood in front of the army, his eyes cold and firm, and his whole body exuded murderous aura.

The harsh aura suffocated all the soldiers.

Behind him was a group of steel warriors who were silent but as evil as wolves, but they became famous even if they didn't cry.

They looked at the majestic and tall general in front of them, with unspeakable emotions in their hearts.

That's admiration.

More like worship.

In worship, follow his lead.

Toward the abyss of death.

go ahead.

At this moment, the indifferent sky seemed to be infected by the other party's terrifying aura, showing a rare trace of mercy in the coldness.

When Lan Yu's soldiers and horses rushed to Yuerhai, they finally found traces of the enemy.

According to the spies' report, the soldiers and horses led by Togu Si Timur were stationed more than eighty miles northeast of his location.

For Sapphire, this is undoubtedly good news.

His instincts didn't let him down.

He finally found his enemy!

At the same time, Lan Yu, as the coach, also knows deeply that this is the only chance.

Golden opportunity.

For Togu Si Timur, he must kill him with one blow.

Otherwise he will die without a burial place.

He called Wang Bi to his side and looked deeply at the majestic man in front of him. Wang Bi had been following him since the beginning of the expedition and never left him.

From Wang Bi's body, he vaguely saw a shadow.

A shadow similar to one who refuses to admit defeat and risk his life, who grits his teeth, endures hardships and endures humiliation, and never flinches.

In this battle, no one knows what the fate of the next moment will be.

Even sapphire is the same.

Therefore, he had to do everything possible to train the newcomers.

This practice has a classic term in our contemporary times.

Reserve cadres.

He hoped that if he unfortunately died in battle, Wang Bi, who had the ability to command troops that was not his, could take his place and take these men, who were still fathers, husbands and sons, back to their hometowns and the homes they had dreamed of.

.

Before doing anything, you should always make the best assumptions and prepare for the worst. Only in this way can you stand up again as quickly as possible after failure and meet the next greater challenge.

Lan Yu gave Wang Bi a task.

He ordered Wang Bi to be the vanguard and led his troops directly into the enemy's camp.

At this time, Togu Si Timur seemed to know the purpose of Lan Yu's trip, but he was not in a hurry to have a decisive battle with Lan Yu, but chose a delaying method.

Having lived in the desert for a long time, he knew the consequences of being without water or food in the desert.

As for these soldiers and horses who have never set foot in the desert, they don't need to rush to fight with them. They just need to delay the time. If they delay enough, they can be eaten alive.

At that time, you can easily kill the opponent without even using your hands.

In this mentality, he chose a strategic approach similar to a delaying war to check and balance Lan Yu.

To be precise, there was nothing wrong with his strategy.

But the mistake was that he understood himself too high and underestimated the enemy too low.

From a cognitive perspective, he does not understand his opponent.

He doesn't really know Lan Yu.

He didn't know that Lan Yu was very much like his brother-in-law, and even more desperate than his brother-in-law.

Timur, who had never received Chinese education, also did not know that there was such a proverb in the art of war.

Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. - "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu

Luck and laziness tend to make people lazy.

This kind of inertia is barely manageable for ordinary families, but it is fatal for the military.

At this time, Togu Si Timur was busy with something.

Have fun.

Playing with his wife and children.

This time, in order to fight a protracted war with the Ming army, he brought his wife and children with him. With them around, he would not feel lonely, and with them around, he could pass the time longer.

In the open desert, as native Mongolians, they have fun and have fun.

They are killing time in their own way.

But they would never have imagined that while they were singing and laughing, a troop of soldiers and horses was quietly approaching.

That is a fierce force.

That is a silent army.

Anger is not terrible, what is terrible is wordless silence.

In the silence, the majestic cavalry regiment was marching rapidly. In the silence, the murderous aura in the sky soared into the sky.

At this moment, God seemed to be deeply affected.

The fierce momentum rolled up the long yellow sand, and the originally clear sky instantly became dim and dull.

sandstorm rises;

Covering the sky and blocking out the sun.

Faced with this situation, the little remaining vigilance of Togusi Timur disappeared.

In this nonsense weather, no one would come out to seek death.

Unless he is crazy.

But what he doesn't know is that Lan Yu is indeed a madman.
