"I didn't expect the princess's wild approach to be so effective!" You Shao said to Nie Lei while chasing the enemy.
Nie Lei looked at him angrily, "What is Yeluzi? The princess must have planned all this a long time ago!"
Nie Lei said again: "Don't you notice that our battle this time is any different from the past?"
You Shao was stunned for a moment, and he found out something strange.
This time, it seems that they didn't call the enemy to fight, but just fought?
Qin Rushuang, who was in front, looked back at the two people who were talking and said, "Why don't you chase after me?"
The two of them shut up and chased forward.
In fact, Nie Lei was right. Qin Rushuang's battle was originally planned, and the word "quick" was used.
In the past, when two armies fought against each other, unless one of them had already breached the city gate, it was a unilateral attack. If the two armies faced off like this in a three-nothing zone, then there would be special considerations.
For example, two armies and horses will confront each other a few kilometers away. The general will call for formation, gongs and drums will sound, etc.
But this time, Qin Rushuang did not bring the gongs and drums team to support the formation, nor did she stop to call the opponent's general to call for formation. Instead, she rushed over with her troops and horses, catching the opponent off guard.
He also had his own considerations in making this arrangement.
She knew there was a swamp behind this group of men and horses. In the past, the enemy would usually assess the situation of the opponent's men and horses during the formation call, and then use methods such as arranging troops to force the people around the swamp.
But these guidances take time.
Now Qin Rushuang, the so-called "wild man", gave up the previous step of calling the formation and rushed directly into the enemy's army.
Firstly, it caught the enemy by surprise; secondly, it also bought time for You Shao and Nie Lei to encircle and suppress them later.
Of course, all this is based on the fact that Qin Rushuang, as the vanguard, can defeat the opponent!
That swamp can become a powerful weapon for Dayan's army when time is abundant, but it can become their Achilles' heel when time is short!
Because they themselves don’t dare to rush into the swamp!
As long as the attack is fierce enough, fierce enough, and fast enough, they will be unable to fight forward or retreat, and their position will naturally be thrown into disarray.
However, this method can only be used once.
However, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. No matter how many times a tactic can be used, as long as it is effective, it is a useful tactic!
Qin Rushuang looked at the fleeing Dayan army ahead. It had to be said that although the Dayan army was stunned, they fled very quickly.
Before they knew it, they had already chased them far away.
Qin Rushuang raised his head and looked at the originally wide area, but a hazy scene of fog and shadow suddenly appeared in front of him.
At this moment, Dayan's soldiers and horses seemed to be performing magic tricks, rushing into the thick fog and disappearing again!
Qin Rushuang signaled to stop and called Nie Lei.
"You've been staying at the border for a long time. What's going on with the fog here?"
No wonder Qin Rushuang was cautious, the main reason was that the fog in this area was so strange.
It appeared out of thin air on the vast grassland, and the fog was so thick that Qin Rushuang had never seen it before.
"This..." Nie Lei scratched his head and glanced behind him, only to realize that they had chased him too far.
"Back to the general, although I have joined the border guard army for a long time, we came down from Qi Dynasty to value peace. Most of the time we drove the enemy troops back and then ignored them. We rarely took the initiative to attack, so it was so far away.
I have never been to this place before.”
"But..." He looked a little more cautious, "The general once heard from the prince that there is a red stone forest deep in the grassland, which is called the Devil's Forest."
"This Devil's Forest is located behind a dense fog. Both the fog and the red stone forest are very strange. It is said that there are obstacles inside. Ordinary people will get lost in it after entering and never come out."
Qin Rushuang raised her eyebrows, "Then why did Dayan's army dare to rush in?"
Nie Lei paused and asked, "If we don't know about this anymore, why don't we follow along and have a look?"
Qin Rushuang was also thinking about whether to go and investigate.
She is now a general with tens of millions of soldiers and horses in her hands. The consequences of one of her wrong decisions are unimaginable, so she is inevitably a little more cautious.
But she came to the border this time with the intention of achieving major results and going back to negotiate with Emperor Qi.
In her original plan, she originally planned to defeat Dayan once and for all, instead of just driving them back to the country like before.
Qin Rushuang thought for a while and decided to go take a look.
Regardless of whether to enter or not, it is also good to explore the surrounding terrain. After all, under her leadership, the border guards will never stop here.
"Let's go and take a look." She looked back at the soldiers and said, "To be cautious, line up and repair first, and don't fall behind. Mu Duo, you clear the way in front."
Qin Rushuang also had a reason for this arrangement.
Mu Duo was born in the southwest border since he was a child, and there are many deep mountains and old forests in the southwest. Every person in the southwest border has a special ability to face the miasma of swamps in the deep mountains and old forests without getting lost.
It's just that Qin Rushuang's arrangement, if you Shao, who didn't understand the situation, turned out to be Qin Rushuang's attempt to make Mu Duo stand out.
Thinking of the previous scraping of bones to heal wounds and Qin Rushuang's connivance with Mu Duo, You Shao became wary.
His prince is currently physically inconvenient and cannot be courteous in front of the princess. If he gets the limelight and wins the trust of the princess, then what's the point?!
So You Shao immediately took the initiative to ask for help: "The danger ahead is dangerous, so let the last general lead the team to explore."
Qin Rushuang didn't know about Xiao Jiujiu in You Shao's heart, she just thought that You Shao felt that she had ignored him.
After all, on the battlefield, everyone wanted to achieve military success, so he thought about it for a moment and agreed.
"Then General You will lead the troops to investigate. Remember, you must be cautious."
You Shao cupped his fists and accepted the order: "The general knows."
After speaking, he personally ordered five thousand of his most trusted soldiers and horses and took the lead.
Going further, there is a thick fog.
Qin Rushuang took a look and asked Mu Duo, "Maybe you can tell if there is poison in this fog?"
Mu Duo shook his head, "Although I don't know how this fog was formed, there is nothing wrong with the fog itself."
"Then just keep moving forward."
Although Mu Duo said that there was no poisonous gas in the fog, the fog looked very strange.
They entered the heavy fog, but the fog seemed to disperse behind them, and they suddenly disappeared.
When the fog dispersed, what was revealed to everyone was a pile of messy red stones.
Qin Rushuang has never seen such a color of stone.
The red was strange and frightening, as if it was dyed with blood, and it also revealed an ominous darkness.
Moreover, this pile of stones is said to be disorganized, but that is not necessarily the case.
The stones are divided into two piles, with one empty in the middle.
The stones on both sides were piled up in a triangular shape, pointing to the vacancy in the middle, which seemed... like a door.
Qin Rushuang looked at it secretly, could this be the entrance to the red stone forest?
