Chapter 280 The battle is coming

Liu Xie was also a little surprised by Xun You's speech.

This is not a military advisor, this is a political commissar.

Scholars are just scholars, they think more, they think further, and they stand at different heights.

Unlike Zhang Yang and others, they only think about how to win the battle in front of them.

After the generals dispersed, Liu Xie stayed with Xun You to say a few words to express his gratitude.

There are many young people around him, who have more than enough energy and lack of composure. He really needs a middle-aged wise man like Xun You to balance him out to avoid being rash.

Xun You, contrary to his previous generosity, took the initiative to leave without saying a few words.

Faced with such a situation, Liu Xie, who was known for his poetry and cherishing words like gold, could only do nothing.

Fortunately, he was used to it and adjusted his mood quickly.

After taking the chat record just now, he reviewed the combat arrangements and confirmed that there were no omissions. Liu Xie got up and walked out of the tent.

Cai Yan quickly put down the pen in his hand, picked up Liu Xie's coat, and followed him out.

"Your Majesty, it's cold outside, don't catch a cold."

Liu Xie was helped by Cai Yan to put on the big cloak. Now he understood a little bit why Cai Yan came with him. Although there were tigers and servants around him, women were better at doing these things, especially the older ones.

When it comes to taking care of people, Cai Yan is more careful and thoughtful than Fu Shou.

"You go in and I can walk around as I please."

Cai Yan nodded in agreement and retreated. She knew that Liu Xie had the habit of patrolling camps, so there was no need for her to follow him.

Liu Xie called Wang Yue and left the Chinese army's tent.

Along the way, many soldiers were reinforcing their tents. There were also soldiers on duty passing by. When they saw Liu Xie passing by, they all stopped and saluted. Liu Xie nodded to each one and occasionally asked a few words, not deliberately.

The lieutenants and generals were used to this scene, and they didn't think there was anything serious about talking to the emperor.

Unknowingly, the attitude of the generals in the army also improved a lot, and it was rare to beat or scold the soldiers.

Liu Xie went to Zhang Yang's camp on the left to have a look, then to the Wangfu camp on the right, and walked around in front of the Huns' camp, and finally returned to the camp and looked at the armor.

riding situation.

Armored Cavalry is his trump card and the core force that he is directly responsible for, so he must pay special attention to it.

The armored knights are making pre-battle arrangements. Under the leadership of three hundred knight commanders, they are familiar with the terrain and conducting battle rehearsals.

Once a battle breaks out, how you position yourself will determine the effectiveness of your combat effectiveness. If you don't make good arrangements, you'll be in a mess, you won't be able to kill the enemy, you'll startle your horse, and you'll charge back to the imperial tent, that's a big trouble.

Guo Wu, the cavalry captain in charge of Sima, rushed over and saluted Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty, the armored cavalry is ready and can fight at any time."

Liu Xie was very satisfied. "The morale is very high, but we still need to pay attention to rest. It is important to maintain physical strength."

"Your Majesty is right." Guo Wu looked back at the excited knight with a look of disdain. "I heard that the Huns might be nearby. They were all as excited as little roosters, stretching their necks to crow."

Liu Xie couldn't help laughing. "If you have a sharp weapon in your hand, you will inevitably be excited if you haven't tried it yet."

Guo Wu nodded. "It's a pity that there is no horse-cutting sword, so the foot battle will inevitably be inferior."

Liu Xie sighed.

He actually thought about equipping armored cavalry with horse-cutting swords. After all, armored cavalry are carefully selected warriors. Not only can they fight on horseback, they are also good at fighting on foot. They have heavy armor for body protection, no need for a shield, and they can be held with both hands.

The horse-cutting sword is a powerful weapon in foot combat.

Or go directly to Mo Dao.

However, the requirements for the horse-killing sword are too high and consume a lot of iron, so Pei Qian really can't do it.

"Let's make do with the Hundred Refined Sword for now. When I have money, I will buy you better equipment." Liu Xie said hopefully.

The west bank of the river, the edge of the desert.

Some black shadows slowly emerged from behind the sand dunes and gathered by the river.

?Luo Duan sat on the horse, looking at the star-like fire in the distance, his originally slender eyes narrowed into a line.

The emperor of the Han family actually came in person, which surprised and excited him.

It's just an internal fight among the Huns. It's not like it has never happened before. The emperor of the Han family can at most send a general to either mediate or conquer, as long as Meiji can restore stability.

Even when the Huns rebelled and rebelled several times, the emperor never paid such attention to them.

I don't know what the child emperor was thinking, that he would go on a personal expedition.

?Luo decided to seize this opportunity and prove his strength.

The Huns fought with the Han people for hundreds of years, with victories and defeats, but they never defeated the Han emperor himself.

Maybe this is because God asked me to be a Shanyu.

After Qiangqu was killed, Xubu Guduhou was appointed as a chanyu, but his life was not strong enough. He only served as a chanyu for one year and died. After that, the ministries refused to give in to each other and no new chanyu was elected.

Only Lao Wang takes charge of things.

If he could defeat the Han emperor, he would be able to establish enough prestige and become a favored Chanyu.

? Luo endured the excitement in his heart and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to start taking action.

Although the Han troops were not large, they were very cautious and formed their camps between the river and the lake, leaving only the north side.

When Luo was young, he fought with the Han army many times, or fought side by side, and saw the strength of the Han people in infantry combat.

But the weather was cold at the moment, and the ground was frozen as hard as iron. The Han people could not break the ground to set up camp, let alone dig trenches and divert water from the lake.

Their camp was like a woman's open arms, and only the phalanx of infantry posed a certain threat.

He decided to send people to launch an attack from the ice to harass the Han army's rear camp.

Although the weather is getting warmer and the ice is not as thick as before, there is no problem in walking.

If an attack from the ice surface can cause panic among the Han people, the infantry phalanx in the north will be disrupted, and the cavalry can take advantage of the situation and rush into the Han army's camp.

If the Han counterattacked on the spot, he would not suffer much loss. At worst, he could just retreat from the ice.

He didn't think the Han people had the courage to catch up on the ice.

Unless adequate preparations are made, such as wrapping straw rope around boots, it would be difficult for most people to even walk on the ice, let alone fight on it.

Seeing hundreds of his men get on the ice, Luo also headed north with his bodyguards.

The number of people that could be intercepted by the ice could not be too large. The main force was the cavalry guarding the north of the Han army's camp. The general Luo personally led the knights to charge into the camp.

He was not willing to let anyone share the honor of killing the Han emperor with his own hands.

In order to avoid being discovered by Han scouts, he hid in the desert for two days and suffered a lot. Now that he was out of the desert again, he couldn't wait to win in return.

Taking advantage of the darkness and marching for an hour, he entered the preset position.

The Han army's camp was just a few miles away, and the firelight flickered like cold stars in the night sky.

?Lu ordered the soldiers to dismount and rest, eat something, and feed the horses some essence to prepare for battle.

While gnawing on the cold and hard cake, he looked at the lake in the distance, waiting for the light of fire to appear and for the hunting to begin.

If you are lucky, you can have breakfast in the Han camp tomorrow and enjoy the wine and women of the Han emperor.

?The corners of his fallen mouth couldn't help but turn up.
