"Yes, they are indeed moving very slowly, and they do not take the official road, they only take small roads. In addition, they are defeated soldiers and their morale is not strong, so the speed cannot be improved." The security personnel also cooperated.
He smiled and said.
"Are you taking the small road?" Ji Jinkai couldn't help laughing after hearing this information.
It is a good thing to be cautious when marching and fighting, but being too cautious will only have the opposite effect. The biggest advantage of cavalry is their speed. When fighting, they use their speed to attack, making it difficult for people to guard against, and the defense line will be broken and collapse.
But now, despite being cautious, he actually gave up his own strengths. This is a very stupid behavior. Ji Jinkai didn't know who made this decision, but in his opinion, anyone who can make such a decision
He must not know much about military affairs. He is an incompetent and misguided general.
Even so, Ji Jinkai became even more confident about defeating these defeated soldiers. "Okay, since the enemy is still some distance away from us, we must take advantage of this period to replenish our physical strength.
Distribute all the dried meat. It must be distributed to every soldier. Only when they eat well and are full can they have the strength to kill the enemy and fight for greater victory."
This time when he came to deliver equipment to the Canglang Camp, Ji Jinkai had a "selfish motive", that is, if he could take the opportunity to get some military honors. Although he was a civil servant, he was different from many literati in his bones. In his opinion,
What Emperor Huati Tang Ao said is absolutely a wise saying, that is, a truly capable minister can conquer the world for the king when he mounts his horse, and can help the king rule the world when he dismounts.
This is the so-called way of being versatile in both civil and military affairs!
Ji Jinkai wanted to be such a general, and he firmly believed that he could do it well. He believed even more that only with such talent could he shine, do more things, and take on responsibilities under the wise leadership of Vantage.
More important positions.
With an idea in mind, he took advantage of his position as governor of a state to make some preparations. Dried meat like this was one of the items he prepared.
In this chaotic era, it is a very happy thing for people to have enough to eat, let alone eat meat. But in the realm of China, this has long been a common thing, and the people here also
They not only want to eat well, they also want to wear better clothes, live in a bigger house, have more wealth, and do things they never dared to think about before.
In such a general environment, after Ji Jinkai became the governor of Heizhou, he took advantage of the good environment here to vigorously develop animal husbandry. The big policies were well implemented and they soon had results. Meat from Heizhou began to be transported out of the country.
Diffusion. Things like dried meat that have been specially processed and can be stored for a longer period of time are what they vigorously produce for the outside world. Every quarter, the amount needed by the military general logistics department alone is huge.
But Heizhou made a lot of money from this.
As the person in charge of this project, it is still very easy to just leave some dried meat in your hands.
Ji Jinkai gave the order, and someone immediately went to carry it out, and the tons of dried meat he brought were distributed. Although it was eventually distributed to the hands of 50,000 soldiers, each one did not actually get much, but it was meat.
It was definitely a luxury item at the time.
For this reason, many recruits only ate a little, wanting to keep more to take home and give to their families and children a taste. But after this move was discovered by some veteran squad platoon leaders, they immediately
Corrections were given.
Dried meat is now a military commodity and has not been sold locally. Such things can only appear in the army. Now that it is distributed to the soldiers, they must eat it, not like this
How to maintain enough physical strength to win the battle?
Of course, as soldiers, they also have their special treatment. For example, after returning from a victorious battle and receiving a reward, you can take the reward to the military logistics office in exchange for dried meat. It will not be too late to take it home at that time. As for
Now, since the items are distributed to the hands, they must be eaten. Who dares not to do this? Once the secret hiding is discovered, it will be punished by military discipline. This is a kind of disobedience to orders.
.
The squad and platoon leaders talked about this issue very seriously, and the recruits who were hiding in the tunnel did not dare to disobey. They ate the dried meat in their hands one by one. As expected, they felt that their physical strength had become much stronger.
.
The soldiers were replenishing their strength, eating dried meat, dry food and drinking boiled sterile warm water. Ji Jinkai took some staff members and walked around the battlefield again, and indeed discovered some exposed places.
After all, the excavation work was done at night before, so it was inevitable that there would be some loopholes. Now, taking advantage of the daylight, we went through the process of checking and filling the loopholes again.
Just when the scouts came with the news that the Hun cavalry was only eight miles away from them, and that the enemy's Ye Bushou was also coming here, Ji Jinkai waited for the crowd to withdraw. But at this time,
The sky suddenly turned cloudy, and then it started to rain lightly.
The light rain fell on the soil on both sides of the official road, naturally covering up all the traces that existed here before. This made Ji Jinkai feel very happy when he saw this scene. This was because even God was helping him.
The rain started to fall at any time. The Huns who were eight miles ahead of the army frowned. It seemed that the weather was not suitable for them to conduct reconnaissance. But when they thought about their mission, they just felt uncomfortable.
, still do whatever you should do.
The ambush place Ji Jinkai chose was an intersection. This is the meeting point of the small road and the official road. In other words, if you want to return to the Xiongnu camp, this is the place you must pass through. Choose a place like this
Conducting an ambush can also ensure that the enemy will not escape, at least not from other directions.
Of course, such an important place is also a place where the Xiongnu will focus on inspections at night. But at the same time, there is nothing to inspect here. From a distance, it is a flat plain with only a few sparse trees in the distance.
That's all, but it can also be seen through at a glance, and you can't hide anyone.
When it rains, walking on the official road is naturally much easier. A thick layer of cinders is laid on it to ensure that the road will not be muddy even if it rains. In this way, those who stay late at night can only walk roughly on the official road.
Once again, they sent people to inform the rear army that no enemy was found here, and then continued their reconnaissance forward.
But just within twenty or thirty steps of these night warriors, there are tens of thousands of troops buried underground, with thousands of tunnels. Hidden, this is also one of the must-learn subjects for the academic year group of Longyuan Military Academy.
The difference is that some people can use it very well in war, and some people don't do it very well. Ji Jinkai also went to Longyuan to attend classes, and was very interested in the knowledge of hiding.
, and now he is taking advantage of it.
Originally, there were some minor flaws when I used it for the first time, but because of the light rain, all the flaws were covered up, and it completed the excellent hiding and lurking task.
The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and Ji Jinkai in the tunnel saw everything in his eyes from the special periscope?
The periscope is composed of a prism, an imaging lens and a rotation lens. Through the principle, the mirror can be made crooked, but it does not delay the observation of the outside situation, thus ensuring that it is not discovered by others.
Seeing the Xiongnu going away without noticing their presence outside, the smile on Ji Jinkai's face became even brighter. He knew that a rich meal should be waiting for him.
Ye did not accept any return, and everything was normal in the front. Hu Yantong and Bu Xian looked overjoyed. They seemed to have seen the scene of returning to camp safely. However, General Qi Huai on the side couldn't help but frowned.
This time, the Chinese army was obviously well prepared, so could they not send troops on their way to escape?
If it were him, he would definitely send troops. Only in this way can the results of the battle be maximized. And he did not believe that the generals of the Great China Army would not know such a simple truth. But why is there no news of intercepting troops yet?
Now it seems that they are getting closer and closer to their base camp. As long as they pass the official road in front, there are several small roads to return to the base camp. At that time, the Chinese army wants to block them, so they have to know in advance which way they want to take.
Just the road will do.
Or is it that the strength of the Dahua Army was insufficient to begin with, so it did not send troops to intercept it?
While Qi Huai was still frowning and thinking about the situation in front of him, Bu Xian on the side had already spoken, "General Qi Huai, what are you thinking about? The prince has spoken to you several times and you haven't replied. What do you mean?"
Hu Yantong is a prince and the future heir of the Huyan clan. As a general of the Huyan clan, how dare Qi Huai not to take his master seriously?
After Bu Xian said this, Qi Huai quickly bowed to Hu Yantong humbly, bowed and said: "Prince, forgive me, the general was thinking about the war just now, and he was distracted for a moment and didn't hear."
Although Hu Yantong's ability is not very good, he is not completely a stick. He will not do anything to offend the general without hesitation, not to mention that he is still on the run. There are too many places where he needs to rely on the other party.
So he didn't mean to be angry, but asked with interest, "Oh, but I wonder what General Qi Huai is thinking about?"
When Qi Huai was asked, he didn't hide it, but said all the thoughts in his mind just now.
"Haha, hahaha." Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Bu Xian burst out laughing, then looked at Qi Huai, who had a puzzled look on his face, and said, "Are you too careful?
Do you really think that the Chinese army is omnipotent? They were able to capture our camp just because we were unprepared and took advantage of it. Do you really think that they still have the strength to send troops to intercept us?"
