Wanyan Zonghan hurried for days and came towards the northeast. txt** However, it has been snowing heavily these days, and even the cavalry's marching speed is extremely slow.
A few days later, Wanyan Zonghan's army finally arrived at a place more than 200 miles west of Tianfu City. This is a mountain range with trees everywhere. In heavy snow, the roads in the mountains are too difficult to walk, and many places are extremely dangerous.
Yan Zonghan had to send a large number of spies to investigate the situation ahead.
In the afternoon of that day, the spies came back one after another, and several of them said they had found human traces more than thirty miles away to the east.
"There are traces ahead? Could it be those Han people left behind?" Wanyan Zonghan couldn't help but be startled. He hurriedly issued an order and led an army of 50,000 towards the east.
After arriving here, I found a large number of footprints. These footprints were obviously left in the past two days. Although the snow was heavy, these footprints were not completely buried.
"That's great. It seems that the Han army did pass through here! If you chase them, you must catch up with them!" Wanyan Zonghan laughed.
After marching hard these days, he was also quite depressed. Now that he finally discovered the enemy's traces, he suddenly felt relieved.
The army moved forward, but at night, the footprints began to disappear one after another. At this moment, they had come to the plains from the mountains. Wanyan Zonghan became anxious again. He immediately ordered the soldiers to continue to search for the traces left by the Liangshan army.
In order to find the Liangshan army faster.
"General, it seems that there are a lot of Han people, at least over 50,000. They should be the ones who came out of Liaoyang City before." Dong Yun followed Wanyan Zonghan and said.
"Yes, it must be those people! We must find them this time! After defeating them all, we should be able to get hundreds of thousands of people again." Wanyan Zonghan said with a smile.
The soldiers were exhausted, but Wanyan Zonghan refused to let them rest, and there was nothing they could do. After about an hour, someone discovered humanoid traces one after another in the southeast, which were also the footprints left by the army, but this
The footprints were very shallow, and it seemed that the army had been passing by here for some time.
"The snow is more than a foot deep, and the footprints are almost disappearing. It seems that they have been walking for a long time! If you chase them, you must catch up with them! You must kill them all!" Wanyan Zonghan said through gritted teeth, and on the horse
He whipped his whip fiercely and galloped forward quickly. The female cavalry hurriedly followed him, and the rest of the newly attached cavalry also followed him forward.
When it was almost dawn, they entered Changbai Mountain. The mountains in Changbai Mountain were steep, and the role of horses became smaller and smaller. The further they went in, the thicker the snow became, and in some places the horses could not move forward at all. After arriving here
, the traces of the Liangshan army also completely disappeared.
"General, the snow in the mountains is so thick, it's impossible for them to come to the mountains?" Dong Yun said with some doubts.
"Let's take a short rest here and order the soldiers to search around. I believe they will be able to find their whereabouts soon." Wanyan Zonghan said with a smile on his face.
Not long after, there was a sudden noise on the opposite mountain, and many figures appeared vaguely, as well as many flags. After Wanyan Zonghan saw those figures, he became excited again and immediately led his army again.
Chase towards the opposite mountain.
Unfortunately, after reaching the opposite mountain, the traces of the Liangshan army disappeared again. It was already afternoon. At this time, traces of the Liangshan army appeared on another mountain in front of them, and Wanyan Zonghan chased after them again. Here they are.
At night, when he chased after him, the human traces there had disappeared.
"Legion Commander, why are we doing this?" On the earliest mountain peak, Hua Rong was leading more than a thousand people, and Luan Tingyu was also beside him. Luan Tingyu asked with some confusion.
"It's nothing, it just makes them exhausted. They are in the mountains, frightened every day, and don't have enough food. And at night, I will send soldiers to harass them so that they can't rest smoothly. Wait until their bodies recover
, when my spirit was close to collapse, I defeated them in one fell swoop." Hua Rong said.
"Legion Commander, in fact, after they entered the mountains, the cavalry basically lost its effect, just like a tiger without teeth. We can defeat them now." Luan Tingyu said hesitantly.
"If we attack them now, our losses will be considerable. You have seen the ferocity of real nv. Even though our soldiers train hard every day, even though none of us are afraid of death, there is still a gap between us and them.
.So, we still have to make them tired first." Hua Rong said with a smile.
"What if Wanyan Zonghan doesn't fall into the trap?" Luan Tingyu asked.
"They will definitely fall into the trap. Master nv has not done any research on the art of war and strategy. They do not understand the magical military tactics of our Central Plains. Moreover, after the Huining Mansion was burned, Master nv was extremely angry. As long as there are traces of our army, they will
Crazy search, crazy desire to eliminate us, won't stop," Hua Rong said.
"Legion Commander, if we were replaced by real women, how would we deal with this situation?" Luan Tingyu asked.
"You should not enter the mountains from the beginning, and lose your cavalry advantage. Even if you enter the mountains, you should make a move step by step. The general must not be impatient at all. He must carefully identify the form and then march steadily," Hua Rong said.
"Legion commander, if our infantry wants to deal with the cavalry, can we only defeat the enemy by relying on the advantages of the terrain like here?" Luan Tingyu pondered for a moment and asked again.
"That's not necessarily true. The methods of using troops are ever-changing. Infantry has many ways to deal with cavalry. Even on the plains, infantry can defeat cavalry." Hua Rong said.
"You rarely hear about such wars?" Luan Tingyu asked.
"Ambush from all sides, have you always heard of it? At the beginning, Han Xin led basically infantry, but Xiang Yu led a hundred thousand elite cavalry. Xiang Yu's bravery was unparalleled in the world, and Xiang Yu's military skills were far superior.
They passed the troops led by Han Xin. However, Han Xin's troops were divided into ten groups, ambushing each other and supporting each other like heaven and earth. Although they were all infantry, they completely annihilated Xiang Yu's hundred thousand Jin Rongdao.
Han Xin's Ambush from Flying Daggers is one of the most famous battles in history. Xiang Yu's 100,000 cavalry were wiped out in one fell swoop, leaving Xiang Yu completely desperate and forced to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river. However, Hua Rong did not mention one thing. The infantry led by Han Xin at that time
The number reached 300,000, which was several times that of Xiang Yu. Only then were they able to lay out layers of ambushes and annihilate 100,000 cavalry on the plain. After Han Xin, until now, no one has been able to use infantry to the extent of Han Xin.
Hua Rong studied the art of war painstakingly, and was amazed every time he thought of Han Xin's military skills. He just wanted to copy Han Xin's Ambush from Flying Daggers, but he felt that he still lacked something and could not do it, so he led Wanyan Zonghan to Changbai Mountain.
, first made Wanyan Zonghan tired, and then annihilated him in one fell swoop.
Wanyan Zonghan chased hard for a day, but still could not find the real location of the Liangshan army. He was extremely angry. At night, the mountain wind howled, and the road on the mountain became more and more dangerous. At this time, Wanyan Zonghan had to let the soldiers temporarily
After resting, he planned to continue chasing the Liangshan army tomorrow morning, and he must find the Liangshan army.
The soldiers were so tired that they leaned together and soon they all fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, suddenly an army of more than a hundred people appeared around. The leader of this army was Han Shizhong. Everyone held a strong bow and fired fiercely in the distance. There were whooshes everywhere in the sky.
A whooshing sound.
In fact, not many people were killed by bows and arrows, because Han Shizhong did not dare to get too close to the Nvzhen army, but the Nvzhen army was completely awakened. Under Wanyan Zonghan's order, the Nvzhen army frantically pursued Han Shizhong's more than a hundred people. But Han Shizhong
The more than one hundred people he led were all highly skilled in martial arts in the army, and they were all good at walking on mountain roads. They had carefully investigated the road before coming. Wanyan Zonghan's army simply could not catch up with these more than one hundred people.
After more than an hour, the army began to return. All the soldiers were extremely angry, but there was nothing they could do. In the end, they fell asleep again.
However, less than half an hour after they fell asleep, Monk Chengguan brought dozens of people back, and with another burst of bows and arrows, the female army was awakened again and began to chase Chengguan's people again.
Just before dawn, Luan Tingyu came again with hundreds of soldiers, causing another wave of harassment.
After dawn, the traces of the Liangshan army appeared on the opposite hilltop again. This time the sound of war drums was so loud that Wanyan Zonghan was shocked and immediately woke everyone up to be on guard against attacks from the opposite side.
This continued for several days, and Wanyan Zonghan finally realized something was wrong.
"General, we'd better retreat from the mountains first. I'm afraid the Liangshan army is not here at all. What we have seen these days are all tricks of the Han people." Dong Yundao said! The soldiers have not rested or eaten for days. Everyone is exhausted.
We can no longer stay here. Otherwise, I am afraid that not only will we not be able to obtain those people, not only will we not be able to avenge our relatives in Huining Mansion, but we will also lose our lives here." Wanyan Zonghan nodded.
Immediately, he gathered his troops and prepared to lead them out of Changbai Mountain.
