Meng Longfu shook his head and said coldly: "After all, two-legged people can't run as fast as four-legged ones. Besides, even if your infantry can run fast in the mountains, how will you perform your mission on the plains after leaving the mountains? Wang Junjun, Military Information
Ruhuo, my brother doesn't even have time to drink water, so you should discuss with me how to contact the scouts ahead."
Wang Zhene frowned slightly and then smiled: "Okay, Raptor, please come with me, I will tell you the communication method right now."
A quarter of an hour later, Liu Jingxuan and Wang Zhene stood side by side at the top of the city, looking at the cavalry that was like a long dragon, leaving the pass and heading north, galloping into the mountain roads and dense forests. Liu Jingxuan frowned slightly: "The dragon is still so impatient.
, I don’t know why the slaves sent him as a vanguard to control the front army, maybe they just took a fancy to his hard work and aggressiveness."
Wang Zhene said calmly: "Because the task given to him by the commander-in-chief will not be simply to reconnoiter the enemy's situation or spread rumors. I'm afraid, it will require him to fight the enemy's vanguard who comes to intercept or set up camp."
Liu Jingxuan's face changed slightly: "With just over a thousand men, he has to fight against the Nanyan army, which has at least tens of thousands of people? This is not the case for Ji Nu."
Wang Zhen'e said calmly: "This is the brilliance of the commander-in-chief. We know that there are only more than a thousand cavalry, but the Yan thieves don't know. The commander-in-chief always makes dangerous moves and fights psychological warfare with the enemy. Jingkou Jian
At the time of Yi, more than a thousand people fought with the momentum of an army of tens of thousands, which frightened Huan Xuan's army of one hundred thousand. Looking at the fierce dragon's fearless and indomitable momentum, it can be said that he is only afraid of the current situation.
Among the generals in Beifu, no one can surpass his momentum."
Liu Jingxuan's brows widened: "That's true, fighting is about being ruthless. If the enemy doesn't conduct reconnaissance, doesn't know the details of our army, sees the cavalry in front, and doesn't know where the large infantry is, then it's considered to be sitting on the enemy's side.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses probably didn't dare to step forward. What's more, their tens of thousands of soldiers and horses had to be scattered in various places for defense, and it was difficult to assemble for a while. Even if they gathered the soldiers and horses of Shannan Prefecture and wanted to camp at the Jumi River,
It also takes time. Judging from the confessions of the prisoners, the enemy army has only been here for more than a day. If the fierce dragon pursues them like this, they may be able to defeat the more than 10,000 Shannan garrison who have just retreated north."
Wang Zhen'e shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't be easy. The Shannan garrison was evacuated under the command of Duan Hui. This man is well versed in the art of war and can be called a good general. This time they were all able to evacuate in such a short time, leaving only a small number of defenders."
The army is here, and although the troops and horses of the prefectures and counties in Shannan have withdrawn, they have left detailed operations. After seeing the Raptors and others crossing the border, they can still send a signal to notify their own side to prepare. If the Raptors want to defeat this Yan army, they are afraid that they will not be able to do so.
Easy. But if used properly, by planting suspicious troops and creating more momentum, it can scare away the enemy troops and prevent them from setting up camp at the Jumi River."
Liu Jingxuan's eyes lit up: "Yes, from the northern mountain pass to Linqu, it is nearly a hundred miles. There are no big rivers or big lakes. Jumi Water is the only water source, which can be used by tens of thousands of troops to drink, so..."
Wang Zhen'e said in a deep voice: "That's it. The Yan thieves are cunning. They deliberately withdrew the Shannan garrison and even did not guard Muling Pass in Daxian Mountain, just to lure our army to go deep. If our army rushes all the way to Linqu,
If they occupy the water source and wait for work, their chances of winning will increase exponentially. Probably the commander-in-chief saw this, so he sent the dragon cavalry to rush ahead desperately, hoping to scare the enemy before they could seize the giant water.
Retreat the enemy and secure water sources for the army."
Liu Jingxuan laughed and said: "I remember that when Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, went on the Northern Expedition, Ma Su, who joined the army, lost his street pavilion in pain, which led to the failure of the Northern Expedition. It was because Ma Su did not understand the art of war and the importance of water sources. He camped in the mountains and cut off the water channels. The soldiers died of thirst.
They lost their combat effectiveness and were finally defeated. Today's battle, the Battle of Water Source, is the key to victory. So, the Raptors should have grabbed time?"
Wang Zhen'e sighed: "Yes, but in this case, our contribution to capturing Muling Pass this time may not be so important. Champion, originally we were the vanguard this time, and we captured Muling Pass one day early.
Lingguan, and the Raptors are supposed to be here to assist us, but in this way, they are the real main attacker, and we are taking a backseat."
Liu Jingxuan raised his eyebrows: "Suppress evil, what do you want to say?"
Wang Zhene curled his lips and said: "If the raptor passes through the canyon safely, it means that there are no thieves ambushing here, so there is no need for us to stay here. We can just leave about fifty people to guard the pass. The general can take it with him
Hundreds of brothers also moved forward quickly. Although we are unlikely to catch up with the fierce dragon's cavalry, we can go to other prefectures and counties in Linqu area, including some Han villages, to publicize the defeat of the Yan army and the Shannan garrison.
If you have to die or surrender, the king's army of the Jin Dynasty has passed the Daxian Mountain in the Northern Expedition. If you want to survive or even perform meritorious service, you should come here early to fight against the Yan captives together, and you will be rewarded according to the standards of meritorious soldiers."
Liu Jingxuan said thoughtfully: "Is this really good? This changes the task of sending slaves to me. What if the Yan army reacts and sends troops to attack here?"
Wang Zhen smiled evilly and said: "General, please don't worry. If the fierce dragon arrives in Lunan, it will definitely shake Southern Yan. The enemy will no longer be able to send troops to Daxian Mountain, let alone pass through the canyon to Muling Pass. If you don't worry,
If so, you only need to send more than ten people to lurk on the mountain roads on both sides. If the enemy enters the valley, they will bluff, beat drums and wave flags, and then drop rocks and trees, etc. The enemy will definitely not dare to come again. With the commander-in-chief,
With our arrangements, no matter how slow the Chinese army is, there will definitely be a large army coming to Mulingguan to meet us within a day or two. If we can survive these two days, it won't be a big problem."
Liu Jingxuan gritted his teeth: "Few people are more familiar with the situation in Lunan than me. Even some of my old troops are scattered in some Han villages and Hu tribes. If I really go to Lunan, then
Within a month, it is not a problem to pull out thousands of troops. However, even if you go out against the order, even if you achieve something, if someone imitates it in the future, how can you send the military order to the three armies?"
Wang Zhen'e said in a deep voice: "General, the general is out there, and you are not accepting your orders. We are entrusted by the commander, and as the vanguard of the army, we should use our own judgment. The commander originally asked us to seize and defend the pass.
This is based on the fact that the enemy's Shannan troops have not moved, and we need to stick here to block the enemy's retreat. But now that the enemy has no large army in Shannan, it is meaningless for us to stick here!"
