Chapter 248 Silence
In fact, it was so far apart that it was difficult to hear the sound of fighting on the battlefield.
Therefore, some people think that this is an illusion.
However, hundreds of cavalrymen heard this movement. Not only that, even the war horses with keen intuition became restless, snorting and kicking back and forth.
Seeing this, many cavalrymen hurriedly took control of the reins, leaned over and stroked the horse's mane to calm them down.
If conditions permit, Lu Li would like to turn around and see for himself how fierce the battle in Baiqushui is.
You know, this is the ancient world, there are no guns, only cold weapons!
As for the outcome, Lu Li felt that there was no suspense. After all, Zhang Liao was personally in command...
Alas, I didn't have the chance to see the top generals take action again.
At this time, Ding Yuan said in a cold voice: "Second and third sons, don't be distracted."
Lu Li nodded slightly. His current status is General Yamen, and he only needs to ensure the safety of the lord. As for the rest, it is Song Xian, the pioneer officer, who should worry about it.
"promise."
After answering in a low voice, Song Xian turned to look at the restless followers——
The purpose of this trip was to attack the camp, and he had to ensure the speed of action, so he abandoned the infantry and only brought 500 cavalry.
Maybe it was the lord's eyes that were creepy, or maybe, in awe of the strict military law, the soldiers immediately suppressed all kinds of distracting thoughts, clenched the wooden sticks in their mouths, and didn't even dare to vent their breath, for fear of missing the lord's important business.
"The place where the enemy camped is not too far from here, at most a hundred miles."
Speaking of this, Ding Yuan couldn't help lowering his voice, "Based on the current situation, Yunzhong City should have been breached, and it won't take too long. It stands to reason that the Huns should be looting property and looting Dingkou at this time. ..."
Lu Li understood what Ding Yuan meant.
When camping in Dingxiang City last night, a letter of plea for help was hidden on the body of the guard who appeared in the camp of the Chinese Army. This shows that Yunzhong City was not breached at that time, but now, the elite of the Huns Came to Baiqushui.
From this, it is not difficult to guess the time when the city was broken.
On one side are the goods that were finally grabbed, and on the other side are the Han army that is about to cross the river.
With the greedy character of the Huns, they will never abandon the former. Therefore, they can only divide their troops and pick out the elite to make a long-distance attack, while the other part finds a place to camp and guard the spoils while waiting for dawn.
Obviously, Lu Li is not the only smart person. Song Xian also thought of this, and couldn't help but say:
"The main force of the enemy forces harassed the army to cross the river, the rear camp must be empty..."
As he spoke, he looked at Ding Yuan from the corner of his eye.
Sun Tzu said: The Lord should not be angry and start a teacher, and the general should not be angry and go to war.
At this moment, Yunzhong City is probably full of empty rooms. If the lord is overwhelmed by anger and acts rashly, the current small cavalry army may be lost in the process of stealing the camp.
However, Ding Yuan was mature and prudent, and gave an order in a cold voice: "Song Xian, you send out a scout to find out the position of the enemy's rear camp, and then send troops to attack and kill them at Yinshi."
Yin time, also known as Pingdan and Ridan, is the time when night and day alternate, corresponding to the current three to five o'clock in the morning.
At that time, the sky was gray, and the Huns in the camp must have been exhausted after arguing for half the night, while the sentry stood on guard all night, and they were equally exhausted. It was a good time to rob the camp.
"promise."
Song Xian didn't hesitate anymore, ordered more than forty horses, and personally led a team to explore in different directions.
The voices died down.
Ding Yuan narrowed his eyes, without saying a word, quietly looking in the direction of Yunzhongcheng.
Is he regretting it?
Facing the cold wind, Lu Li speculated on the thoughts of the hero in front of him. If he had recruited wolf riders to go north at that time, there would be no need for such trouble.
By the way, the city was destroyed and the people were killed. Presumably the governor Zhang Yi had already died for the country, just as Ding Yuan wanted.
【Scholar dies for his confidant】
[Uncle Zhi met his ministers with a national scholar, and the ministers reported to them]
For some reason, these two sentences suddenly popped up in Lu Li's mind, and he felt that he was planning the actions of the lord in his mind, and it was inevitable that he would be suspected of being a villain.
Since he took refuge, Ding Yuan has been treating each other with courtesy, hosting banquets every day, and giving him important tasks, without any neglect...
Slowly, I don't know how long it has passed.
The dull sound of hoofbeats came.
In order to ensure the secrecy of the operation, each horse's hooves were wrapped with cloth. When Lu Li regained consciousness and heard the sound, the scouts led by Song Xian had already entered the line of sight.
"It seems that I have discovered something." At this moment, Ding Yuan, who had kept his eyes closed all the time, opened his eyes and looked at Song Xian who was rushing towards him.
At this moment, this guy's face was full of excitement. If he was not worried about revealing his whereabouts, he would have shouted a few times to pass on the news.
More than fifty miles away.
A military camp half surrounded by water.
With a trace of irritability and anxiety, Du Quan fidgeted and waited in his tent at the farthest corner of the camp.
As we all know, the Huns regard the left as the top priority, so the virtuous king of the left is the most noble under the Shanyu, and his power and status are higher than that of the virtuous king of the right, belonging to one person and above tens of thousands.
Because of this, the Jin family not only recruited more than 100,000 people who control strings this time, but also gathered a large number of tribal leaders under its command.
The left and right King Gu Li, the left and right generals, the left and right captains, the left and right masters, and the left and right Xu are waiting...
In other words, as a traitor with only 500 riders under his command, it is difficult for him to have any right to speak——
Not long ago, I tried to dissuade those aristocrats from drinking less, staying away from beauty, and guarding against the division of troops by the Han army to attack the camp. In the end, I was given a horsewhip by the drunk King Guli. Get old.
What the hell!
How can there be such a bully?
It's time for you bastards to be beaten to the ground by the Han army, and you are not worthy of victory at all!
It would be great if King Zuo Xian was here. Although that guy has a domineering personality, he has a bit of brains in his work. In addition, he never humiliates and surrenders generals.
Du Quan clutched his hot right cheek, the more he thought about it, the more furious he felt, wishing that the divine soldiers of the Han army would descend from heaven and kill these Huns!
However, his rationality kept reminding him: You are a traitor to the Lord, you have lost your loyalty, and before you meet your allies, you can only hang out with this group of alien races.
Thinking of this, he let out a long sigh, opened the curtain, found the Xiongnu soldier who could speak Chinese under his command, and asked him to inform his troops one by one:
Drinking alcohol is prohibited, and the violators will engage in military law.
Fortunately, King Zuo Xian was very strict in his army, and the Xiongnu had a clear internal class. Although those simple-minded Xiongnu soldiers resisted in their hearts, they had to obey.
In this way, a team that is different from other camps appeared.
These cavalrymen threw down their drinking utensils cursingly, rested their eyes on the quiver and closed their eyes——
Since this thing is made of leather, it is hard and hollow after drying, so it is placed close to the ground, which is equivalent to a sound collector. As long as any slight movement on the ground, it will be transmitted to the ears immediately middle.
The third one is in the middle of the night, stay up all night
