Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1137 Options

"Sure enough!" Zhang Chen clapped his hands excitedly, opened his eyes covered with a lot of gum, opened his mouth that hadn't been washed for three days, laughed, and then greeted, "Brothers! Put it all together, Ready to go!"

No matter who it is, they ate high-calorie food for three days in a row, but didn't eat some vegetables, rice, etc., and didn't take a good wash. They all looked like this, and no one was better. go.

Soldiers in the wild, can they be clean without any dust?
Anyway, Zhang Chen didn't care about the current situation anymore, the most important thing is that he finally waited for what Zhang Liao told him...

Zhang Liao went to the east with [-] cavalry, while Zhang Chen hid among the hills with [-] cavalry. The spring water in the room, the daily expectation is to send people wearing camouflage clothes to check the movements of Zheng County. Today, I finally found out that there was a grain transportation team from the direction of Zheng County.

Zhang Chen's face was covered with dust, and the marks of sweat caused his face to appear a natural camouflage color, one white and one black, but his eyes were shining under the eye feces, it looked like he was sitting on the ground The beggars of the later generations looked up and saw the beautiful women in miniskirts swaying in front of them, not only excited, but even a little excited.

Zheng County's actions meant that Zhang Liao's speculation had become a reality.

The so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, food and grass first.

When the big soldiers don’t have enough fat, they consume a lot of these carbohydrates. If Lian Po is too old, can he still eat? How amazing is the appetite.

And when fighting, the consumption is even more frighteningly high.

The huge amount of exercise, plus no one knows whether they can sit down to eat the next meal after one meal, so fear can not only make people crazy, but also increase the amount of food, even if it is two or three times the usual food , It was also basically wiped out. If it weren't for military control and rationing, soldiers would even be able to eat the original three-day amount of food in one day!
With such high-calorie food as fat, and the pre-fried, dried and compressed noodles, Zhang Chen can not only reduce the number of fires, but also avoid carrying a large amount of food and grass in a short period of time.

It's just that eating too much will inevitably have some side effects, such as getting angry, such as not pooping too much, etc., but in terms of convenience, these things are not a problem.

At least Zhang Chen thinks so. If it weren't for these special food and grass, the frequent rising smoke would be easily noticed by the Yang scouts watching from the top of the mountain. Now, these Yang scouts seem to be blind , coming and going under Zhang Chen's nose, turning a blind eye.

In this era, the land is relatively sparsely populated. In addition, Dong Zhuo had cleaned it up before, and the population of many areas had been relocated to Guanzhong. As a result, in the Hongnong area, many villages in the mountains were abandoned. Yang Chen Just lead people to hide in such an abandoned village, hiding under the burnt-out broken eaves and broken walls. If they don't enter the cottage, who can find out that there are actually people hiding in it?

The opportunity was placed in front of Zhang Chen in this way.

Ever since Zhang Chen followed Zhang Liao, he was always busy behind Zhang Liao's ass, and was disgusted by Zhang Liao from time to time.Zhang Chen is also helpless, so he can only do what he can do well, endure hardships and stand hard work without complaining, and now he has finally waited for a chance to prove himself!

Two hundred cavalry mounted their horses and rushed out along the mountain path like a tide, excitedly pounced on the grain transport queues heading for Tongguan, just like a group of very hungry gray wolves pounced on beautiful sheep.

Yang's soldiers never expected to meet Zhengxi's troops here at all, and they even thought that General Zhengxi's troops had already arrived near Hangu Pass, and this area was safe and there was no danger, so when they saw Zhang Many people were stupefied when Chen flung his teeth and claws at him and rushed over with his men and horses.

The small officer in charge of transporting grain came back to his senses and shouted loudly, hoping to command the few guards transporting grain to defend and counterattack. He had never been on the battlefield seriously, and when he saw the galloping horses coming, he basically ran away subconsciously.

Because in the consciousness of these food and grass guards, they are just a slightly higher existence than civilian husbands, and most of them do chores in the army. In this case, it is natural for the soldiers to take the lead in such bloody things as fighting. what……

The auxiliary soldiers are like this, and the civilian husbands who are pulled to do coolies are even more unbearable.

However, there were still more than a dozen people standing, standing upright as guards beside the grain and grass vehicles, and did not escape.

"Good job!" The little officer in charge of escorting food and grass roared, "This is the man! I will ask for credit for you when I go back!" The little officer was helpless, everyone else could run away, but he couldn't, because even if he ran away , Losing food and grass is like losing your head, it's better to die here, and you can get some pension...

The little officer was about to pat one of them on the shoulder and let him line up to meet the impact, but he saw that the little soldier's legs were shaking like chaff, his upper body could not move, his face was pale, and he couldn't even speak. He stared at the direction in front of him where the people and horses were coming.

The little officer quickly turned his head to look at the other person, only to find that although this guy wasn't shaking his legs, his crotch was already wet...

"Ah..." The little officer roared in grief and indignation, swung his saber in the air, and then rushed towards Zhang Chenlai.

However, the death-seeking attack of the small officer could not stop the horseshoes of the cavalry. Zhang Chen led his men and horses, and swept across the entire formation in a blink of an eye, extinguishing all the sporadic resistance.

"Take as much as you can!" Zhang Chen brandished his saber and roared loudly, "Then pile it up in one place! Burn it!"

The fire soared into the sky, and the dry food and grass were the best fuel. Thick black smoke rose into the sky from the flames, exuding a strong smell of burnt aroma.

Zhang Chen turned his horse around and saw that the fire had spread to most of the vehicles, so he whistled, "Let's go!"

Zhang Chen liked this feeling so much, it was like a whirlwind coming and going, the whole battle lasted only an hour, but a knife was stabbed in Yang Jun's waist...

....................................

Zhang Chen is not the only one who likes to lead cavalry roaring and galloping.

So did Xia Houyuan.

Xia Houyuan seemed to like riding horses by nature, and he also enjoyed the feeling of being on horseback. His clan brothers often joked that he was half a barbarian. If he could stick to a horse, he would stick to it for the rest of his life.

Xia Houyuan always smiled.

How can these idiots understand what it feels like when the wind blows through your hair, when the mud splashes under the horse's hooves, when the earth is speeding on its hind legs?
But there is also something right, Xia Houyuan really feels that he is a bit like a barbarian, especially when he is galloping, he feels that this world is his own, and he is the master who herds the lambs in the world...

Cao Cao now has not many cavalry under his command, and there are not many who can act as cavalry generals, so Xia Houyuan became the first cavalry commander without hesitation, managing more than a thousand troops under his command.

"Are you sure?" Xia Houyuan asked, staring at the messenger scout in front of him.

The scout nodded and said, "I saw it with my own eyes."

Xia Houyuan clapped his hands together, and said, "Good! Go down quickly and make some repairs, then set off immediately, and tell the hidden brothers in the city to snatch the city gate when the smoke rises outside the city! If you succeed, this will be your first achievement!"

"Wei!" The scout paused, then retreated first.

Xia Houyuan stood and looked to the west, then roared, smiled like a horse thief, and shouted: "Haha, brothers, you have to put up your fucking energy, the big deal is coming! "

....................................

"Indeed there are...Really, about a thousand..." The Commander of Hangu Pass pointed to the open space far below the city and swore, "...Really, I saw it with my own eyes yesterday. close..."

Commanding more than a thousand cavalrymen of Yang Biao, the cavalry captain worked hard to reach Hangu Pass, but he didn't expect that what he saw was an open field with no one in sight. Captain Qi even thought that the Hangu Pass Order lied about the military situation!
"How many people are there? Don't make any generalizations, left and right!" Captain Qi was obviously very dissatisfied with such a vague number.

"Uh... this... is definitely not more than a thousand riders!" Hangu Guanling wiped the sweat from his brow and said.

"One thousand riders," the captain of the riders nodded and repeated.In terms of numbers, since the opponent does not have an advantage, in terms of the physical strength of the horses, the opponent also does not have an advantage in running around like this. In other words, this battle can be fought!
The mission of Captain Cavalry this time is very clear, whether it is to defeat Zhang Liao's troops from Hongnong, or drive them out, anyway, Zhang Liao can't be allowed to lead his troops to stir up trouble in Hongnong. For farming, where are we going to find this year's harvest?
Therefore, no matter what, it is necessary to fight. Since his side has the upper hand, he cannot easily let Zhang Liao's troops retreat easily!
"Come here, send an order!" Captain Cavalry shouted in a deep voice, "Half an hour to eat, half an hour to form a team, and an hour later to set off! Anyone who misses the army will be killed!"

....................................

After chasing Zhang Liao's troops for half a day, although they haven't seen any traces yet, the captain of the cavalry thinks that the gap is not too far away. In order to ensure the physical strength of the troops, he found a suitable shelter from the wind and camped before sunset. .No matter what, it is necessary to rest after all. Even if people don't rest, horses have to rest. Take a good rest. Tomorrow, at most the day after tomorrow, they will definitely catch up with Zhang Liao's troops who have exhausted their horses.

Captain Qi was very sure of this, but what Captain Qi didn't expect was that not everything would develop in the direction he wanted...

Yinshi was the darkest moment in the world, and the soldiers on duty outside the camp dozed off with their arms folded, not aware of the danger coming.

Most of these Yang's cavalry were originally private soldiers raised by the Yang family or the big and small tyrants in Hongnong. Although because of this reason, these people's riding skills are not bad, even Some are better than those from the barbarians, but in terms of military discipline and combat intuition, it is inevitable that there are some deficiencies.

This is not a big problem. After all, Yang Biao originally formed such a cavalry team to check and balance the cavalry of the Imperial Army in the hands of Han Emperor Liu Xie, and did not intend to send it to the battlefield in a short time...

But after all, the plan cannot keep up with the change.

Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty had nothing at first, but when he went to Bingbei, he had more infantry and cavalry, and then changed himself and became Liu Xie's North Palace Forbidden Army, although Yang Biao tried every means to buckle the supply and reduce some The number of these soldiers, after all, cannot be overdone, so it is very important to have a Luoyang cavalry that can contend. If Zhang Liao hadn't stabbed Hangu Pass with a knife, the entire Hongnong would have been cut off suddenly. Given the danger of being separated, Yang Biao would not move this cavalry team easily.

Everyone was sleeping soundly, and suddenly several shrill screams resounded through the entire night sky, so many people jumped up on the spot and looked around in panic.

In the dark night, the flames swayed in the distance, dozens of silhouettes were looming, and a battle flag fluttered in the air, the three-color stripes were so dazzling.

"What's the situation! How could the camp be attacked?!" Captain Cavalry was puzzled and shouted angrily.

There is a big difference between a cavalry camp and an infantry camp.The infantry camp is basically divided into three parts: the front camp, the middle army, and the rear camp with clear functions and geographical divisions. However, for the cavalry camp, it is more important to choose a camp that is suitable for livestock to take shelter from the wind at night. The place, and because the men and horses stay together, they are not as orderly as the infantry.

At the same time, for the convenience of entering and exiting, there was no barracks wall or anything, but horse refusals were set up at the front and rear of the road, and personnel were sent to guard the outside line in turn.Therefore, basically the cavalry camp occupies a large area, just like the current cavalry captain, basically covering a large part of this road, including the entire woodland beside the road and a part of the valley... …

And these soldiers of General Zhengxi actually appeared in this valley!
How did these people come out?

This valley is obviously closed!

"Damn it!" Captain Cavalry roared, "Who led the team to investigate the valley today!"

At this moment, it happened to be the darkest hour before dawn, and the alarmed soldiers of the Yang family were in a daze, and dozens of people rushed into the camp, cutting and killing everyone they saw, and some even stood behind In the dark place, as long as you see Yang's soldiers riding their horses and preparing to step forward to resist, a few crossbow arrows will fly over, and they will be shot down to the ground, immediately suppressing the Yang's soldiers in the valley. The scene is extremely chaotic!
