Chapter 598

The various armies of the Shenwu Battalion are constantly advancing on the Horqin Grassland. They have advanced hundreds of miles in the past few days. Why hasn't Huang Taiji responded at all?

He wanted to react, but he had to have a time and a place to react.

The formation of the Ming army was too neat. From east to west, within a range of more than a thousand miles, more than ten strands of the Ming army lined up like a straight line, and none of them protruded even a little bit.

In this case, it was really difficult for him to find an opportunity.

Of course, he is not helpless.

After careful consideration and preparation, he finally set up an ambush.

This early in the morning, Luo Weilin was still the same as usual, he got up just after dawn, at midnight, he gave the order to order his men to pack up the camp, and then dispersed the scouts and slowly pushed north.

Their route is still the old position, that is, the westernmost part of the Tenth Route Army.

Because it is close to the plateau in the west, the terrain is a bit undulating, and there are many kinds of hills. Sometimes the chariot even has to go around. The road is not very easy to walk, at least not as easy as the flat terrain in the middle.

However, their advancing speed was not very slow. In about two hours, they had already advanced a hundred miles.

Even if the day's task was completed, they still had nothing to gain, let alone herders, they didn't even see a bison or a wild sheep.

Except for the traces of camping and the messy car shafts and horseshoe marks on the grass, there is nothing else.

Luo Weilin could only sigh slightly, and immediately ordered the army to set up camp on the spot.

He knew very well that the herdsmen on the prairie would not be able to run far. As long as he led the cavalry and chased them forward, within two days, he would definitely be able to catch up with the escaped herdsmen.

However, the order he received was to fight steadily, step by step, and only advance a hundred miles a day, and not to underestimate the enemy.

There's no way, no matter how many military exploits he has in front, he can't catch up.

Originally, he thought that today would be the same as the previous few days, and that would be the end of it.

Unexpectedly, he had just ordered his men to set up a big camp and was about to bury the pot to make food. Suddenly, a scout rode over and reported excitedly from a long distance: "Report, general, about a hundred miles ahead Tens of thousands of enemy cavalry were found."

Is Jian Nu planning to surprise him along the way?

Very good!
Luo Weilin immediately ordered: "Hurry up, put away the cooking stoves and camp tents, and prepare to line up."

His subordinates were also very excited.

Tens of thousands of enemy cavalry, make a fortune!

Now they are not afraid of the slave cavalry, because they are equipped with weapons, and the slave cavalry is a dish in their eyes!

They had just packed up their tents when the sound of horseshoes in front of them sounded like raindrops.

It wasn't that the enemy army had returned, but that the scattered scouts were rushing back frantically. They were rushing back so openly that the slave cavalry would naturally be attracted by them to chase after them.

Luo Weilin quickly directed the convoy to arrange the formation, he was not as fierce as Cao Bianjiao, he directly arranged the attack formation, he arranged the defensive formation.

That is to say, all the infantry chariots were lined up horizontally in a row of more than ten miles long, and all the gaps were blocked with carriages in the middle, and then [-] infantry were put on the roof for defense with all their weapons and equipment, and the two wings were protected by cavalry.

They had just lined up when the thunderous sound of horseshoes sounded from the north.

Luo Weilin raised his binoculars to take a look, with a look of excitement on his face.

The slave cavalry really came, and there was at least [-] to [-] of them!

This is really developed, as long as the [-] to [-] cavalry take the initiative to charge up, he will definitely kill everyone without leaving any behind.

He was planning how to eliminate the [-] to [-] slave cavalry in his mind, but the cavalry on the opposite side slowed down and stopped after approaching the range of five or six miles.

Obviously, people saw their car array.

However, at such a long distance, with the naked eye, at most, a row of black spots can be seen.

Why did Jianu stop?

Do they also have binoculars that can see five miles away?

Luo Weilin held up the binoculars and scanned carefully, but he didn't see anyone holding up the binoculars to scan here.

What is going on here?
Didn't Jiannu come to surprise them all the way, why did he stop when he ran up to them?
When Luo Weilin was puzzled, the Jiannu cavalry on the opposite side turned their horses and ran away!

Fuck, are you kidding me?

Obviously, Jianu was playing tactics with him!

Please enter the urn?

Flying Daggers?

Huang Taiji, do you think I'm a fool?

Luo Weilin thought for a while, and then said decisively: "Lao Li, borrow a few more binoculars, follow them from a distance, and see what they are up to."

Hearing this, Mr. Li, the chief executive, quickly borrowed a dozen binoculars from other chief executives, and then led more than a thousand people under him, divided them into more than ten teams, dispersed, and followed.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Weilin dispatched another team of fast cavalry to the middle road as fast as possible to report to the commander-in-chief Cao Bianjiao.

So, how fast is the fastest communication speed at this moment?

It stands to reason that if you can run wildly for about two hundred miles at most, the horse can't stand it. However, if you can change horses halfway, it will be different.

At this moment, their ten groups of people are basically in a line. As long as they run in one direction, they will meet one way every hundred miles or so.

And after meeting all the way, as long as you change the horse with others, you can ride the horse and run wildly again.

This is the same reason as the eight hundred li rush.

The speed of a normal war horse galloping wildly is about half an hour for a hundred miles, but at this moment, the middle road where Cao Bianjiao is located is more than four hundred miles away from them.

In other words, it only takes more than two hours for them to pass the news to the middle.

This speed is fast enough.

However, two hours before the news spread, Qianhu Lao Li, who was in charge of scouting and investigating, ran back with his men and horses.

What's going on here? Could it be that Jiannu played with the carbine and returned to kill him again?
Soon, Lao Li ran under the commanding chariot, cupped his hands excitedly and said, "Report, General, we have found the camp of the Jiannu army, which is about a hundred miles to the northwest."

What is going on here?
Is Jiannu tempting him to attack?
After thinking for a while, Luo Weilin climbed down from the roof of the car, brought Mr. Li into the command car, then pulled out the map, spread it out on the table, and asked, "Where is the approximate location?"

Mr. Li looked at the route they were taking, and roughly estimated it. Then he pointed to the map and said, "It's probably here."

That is already the edge of the Horqin Grassland, why did the slave army station there?
Luo Weilin stared at the map and thought for a while, then asked again: "How is the terrain near the Jiannu Camp?"

Mr. Qianzong Lao Li thought about it carefully, and then introduced in detail: "There is a small river about one foot wide on the right side of the Jiannu Camp, and behind it are two hills. The two hills are about four or five miles apart, and the height of the hills is roughly It's about twenty feet."

Camping by mountains and rivers seems to be quite in line with the art of war.

The problem is that there are tens of thousands of cavalry in Jiannu, and they camped on the edge of the grassland. It is a problem for tens of thousands of war horses to graze.

This is obviously a trap, there must be an ambush behind the hill.

Hey, are you willing to play with us with such a crude tactic?
