Hang Tianyi never thought that in this world, such a similar situation would one day appear in front of him.
"In Brother Hang's opinion, what should we do?" Tian Chong asked.
Hang Tianyi looked at the mountains on both sides and said: "Master Governor, please continue on your way with the people, leaving 10,000 troops behind. General Shi and I will stay to stop the enemy!"
Tian Chong said: "The Mauryan Dynasty has an army of 200,000. Is 10,000 horses enough?"
Before Hang Tianyi could answer, Shi Baifang had already spoken: "Facing the enemy head-on is like hitting a rock with an egg. Brother Hang just looked at the mountain. Could it be that he wants to use the geographical advantage here to stage an ambush?"
Hang Tianyi laughed: "General Shi is right, this place is indeed suitable for an ambush!"
Tian Chong was so focused on protecting the people that he didn't notice the terrain here. After hearing what Hang Tianyi and Shi Baifang said, he looked up and saw that this was a Hulukou terrain. It was indeed a Hulukou terrain.
The best choice for ambush warfare.
"It's really good to set up an ambush here, but Qiaolu must also be able to see some problems. Well, I'll help you again!"
After Tian Chong finished speaking, he led a group of people and continued forward.
He didn't leave any traces deliberately. Every footprint on the ground was natural, and a bit of panic could be seen in them.
When Hang Tianyi saw this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He smiled and said, "This is a brilliant move, Lord Governor. Let's start setting up and wait for Qiao Lu to arrive!"
Shi Baifang nodded, and the two of them each led five thousand soldiers and horses, and entered the forest at very fast speed to ambush.
Following the instructions, the soldiers silently advanced into the mountains and forests without leaving any traces.
Hang Tianyi and Shi Baifang have made an appointment to raise the flag as a signal and launch an attack together.
The army chasing behind Qiao Lu was indeed very fast. Hang Tianyi and the others had just entered the mountain forest and had already reached the mountain pass.
"Stop!" Qiao Lu issued an order, and the fast-running army stopped neatly at the mouth of the gourd.
"General, why did you stop?" Qiaolu's lieutenant asked.
Qiao Lu looked up and looked ahead. Although it was night, the outline of the mountain could be clearly seen.
"This is a Hulukou terrain. Once we encounter an ambush, we will lose more than we gain. We need to conduct a clear survey before moving forward!" Qiao Lu said.
When the deputy general heard this, he took a look, with a look of admiration in his eyes, and said, "The general is still observing the shortcomings with his eyes like a torch. The general will lead people forward to investigate right now!"
Qiao Lu said: "I'll go take a look too!"
The two of them took a few soldiers with them and did not go deep into the valley, but just surveyed outside.
"General, they have indeed entered the valley!" the deputy general said.
There was a sharp light in Qiao Lu's eyes: "Looking at the footprints they left, they were very panicked. Under normal circumstances, there would be no ambush, but Hang Tianyi is not an idle person, and there are two people, Tian Chong and Shi Baifang."
, being so sober makes me more worried!"
Hang Tianyi was hiding in the mountains and forests, but since he was in the Zifu realm, he could still hear the situation clearly and clearly. At that moment, he had to admire that Qiao Lu was indeed a good soldier in marching and fighting.
Tonight's ambush, at this point, Hang Tianyi felt that there was almost no chance of success.
But there is one good thing: Qiaolu doesn't dare to approach the valley easily. This naturally buys Tian Chong and the others more time.
Shi Baifang also wanted to understand this. At the moment, they were all hiding quietly in the mountains and forests, waiting quietly.
"Then from the general's point of view, what should we do?" the deputy general asked.
"Wait until daybreak, and then we will send people into the forest to investigate!" Qiao Lu looked at the sky. After a night of tossing, calculating the time, it was only about an hour before dawn.
Judging from the traces left behind, Tian Chong did indeed flee with many people. The march was very fast, and an hour was nothing.
In fact, he could have sent people into the mountains and forests to survey now, but it was too dark at this time to see clearly. Once he surveyed and no problems were found, it would lower the vigilance of the soldiers, which would
It's really dangerous.
At the same time, this is still said to Hang Tianyi and the others. Once there is an ambush here, spending time here will definitely have a psychological effect on Hang Tianyi and the others.
Hang Tianyi doesn't care about this, as long as he can delay it for a little longer, that's fine.
After hearing Qiaolu's words, the deputy general nodded secretly. He then walked to the front and ordered the army to rest on the spot. From the evening until now, the soldiers of the Maurya Dynasty were naturally tired.
After receiving the order, they began to rest. Qiaolu looked at the valley in front of him quietly and said: "If there is really an ambush here, I want to see if you can sit still!"
In the forest, a soldier who was following Hang Tianyi laughed and said: "Hang Captou, wait until dawn, they have rested. Once they enter the mountains and forests, it will do no harm to us. What do you think we should do?"
"
Hang Tianyi said: "They are resting, and we should also take a good rest. If we fight an ambush here, we can't achieve a complete victory. We can only buy more time for the governor and the others. In this way, if they don't move forward, no matter how long they rest,
No matter whether we go into the mountains or not, it’s okay for us!”
"I still hope that they will enter the valley. Once the war starts, we can take advantage of the terrain and fight against them, which will definitely delay them for more time!" said the soldier.
Hang Tianyi nodded: "That's true, but if they don't enter the valley now, there's nothing we can do. Tell the brothers not to make any noise. We'll just wait. After dawn, they will enter the mountains and forests. This battle is inevitable.
!”
The soldier nodded and followed Hang Tianyi's instructions.
Outside the valley, Qiaolu and his soldiers stood there quietly.
"General, this valley is too quiet!" the deputy general said.
"It's reasonable to be quiet at this point. Just wait. After dawn, whether they really have an ambush or not, they will have to pass through this valley!" Qiaolu said.
The soldier nodded, and then he came to the army and had a conversation with the soldiers.
When dawn is approaching, the world will become darker.
Perhaps, it is precisely because light is hard to come by that it is like this.
But Hang Tianyi didn't know when the light that belonged to them would arrive. He was sure that Chen Junmo would send reinforcements, but when the reinforcements would arrive, he could only roughly estimate a time period.
Judging from the current situation, Hang Tianyi really has no idea whether he can survive until then.
The Mauryan Dynasty not only has a large number of people, but also has an army of 200,000, all of which are elite soldiers and strong generals. To be able to achieve the current situation, he has tried his best, both in terms of strength and wisdom.
But Hang Tianyi knows that if even he loses confidence, let alone others, the current situation can only be maintained.
