Lord Moyu was forced to open

Carefully walked through the middle, still safe and sound.

Tian Chengdang even smiled and said to the lieutenant general: "This Pingwa army looks nothing more than that. If it were me, even if I guessed that we might not go here, I would leave two spies here to observe, or leave one The small troops blocked first.

If we are found, whether the spies go back and report quickly, or the small troops block us first so that the large troops can come to reinforce, it is a good way.

The Pingwa army actually didn't care about this place directly, so it seems that the general leading the army on the other side is probably just a generation of paper talkers, which is not enough to filter out! "

The deputy general also smiled and said:
"I heard that these people were recruited from refugees by King Yun. They were just throwing food out of the fields. They didn't have any professional training and were taught by veterans.

It may have taken them a lot of effort to keep the army from collapsing now. "

With a relaxed smile on Tian Cheng's face, he laughed loudly and said, "It seems that this time we can win easily, and we won the first battle. After all, the Zhao family should give us more rewards, right?" ?”

"That's natural. Brothers work hard for them. How can we not give money?" The deputy general quickly echoed.

Just between the two of them talking.

suddenly!

"Report!"

A hurried voice sounded, and the next moment a soldier galloped back from the front on horseback, came to the two of them and cupped his hands and said: "General, the enemy's horse is found five miles ahead!"

"what?!"

Tian Li and the deputy general were shocked when they heard this!
He said just now that the other party hadn't ambushed, but the kung fu man came in the blink of an eye, and he came here just to slap his face!
But this is not the most important thing. Since the other party's scouting horse has been discovered, isn't the other party most likely to ambush here?

Thinking of this, Tian Li immediately ordered loudly: "Immediately order the entire army to stop advancing and form a defensive formation!"

Brush brush!
With an order, the hearts of all the Zhao Jiajun who had just relaxed were raised.

All of them immediately stopped in their tracks, and followed the orders of the superior officer with their weapons in their hands to form a defensive formation. They held their weapons and watched vigilantly at the cliffs on both sides!
At this time, the deputy general found a loophole, and immediately stopped Tian Li, who was about to lead his troops back, and said: "Don't panic, general, although you have discovered the opponent's scouting horse, have you forgotten, general? We also formed a small group." People were on the cliffs on both sides to check the situation.

They have advanced much deeper than us, and now they have not detected any enemies, which means that the opponent has not set up ambushes on both sides, or has not set up ambushes on the current section of the road, so we don't have to worry so much. "

Hearing this, Tian Li also reacted, yes!

Although I found the other party's scouts, the people I sent out did not report that someone had set up ambushes on the cliffs on both sides, so I didn't have to worry about being ambushed.

But... what happened to Tan Ma?

Tian Li looked at his lieutenant general. After working together for many years, the lieutenant immediately knew what he was thinking with just one look. He immediately suggested: "Let the vanguard army send the scouts farther, and find out the front as soon as possible." Case.

In addition, inform the spies on the cliff to expand the scope of investigation.

When the specific news comes back, we will decide whether to leave or stay. Now we just stay where we are.

We can't be intimidated by the little noise made by the other party, otherwise, if the Zhao family finds out about the general, you will inevitably be branded a cowardly, cowardly and incompetent impression, which is not good! "

After Tian Li heard what he said was quite reasonable, Dang even nodded in agreement, and immediately sent people to notify the spies on the cliff and the vanguard walking in front of them respectively.

The large troops of the Zhao family army stopped, but at this time everyone was nervous, staring at the two cliffs all the time, and their hearts were extremely vigilant!
Soon, news of the vanguard army and the spies on the cliff came back.

Under their investigation, they finally detected the specific situation ahead. The spies on the cliff found nothing, and there was still no one in front, and there was no ambush set up by the Pingwa army.

But when the vanguard army approached the exit of the Rift Valley Cliff, the spies found the enemy brigade at the exit!
"What? They're blocking the exit? How many are there?"

Tian Li heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that the other party was blocking the exit instead of ambushing on the cliffs on both sides.

But then he knew that the opposite side led the army to block the exit, and the heart that had just been let go immediately lifted up again!

The detective who reported back immediately replied: "After rough calculations, the opponent's army blocking the exit is about 4000 people, all of whom are infantry!"

"About 4000 people, and all of them are infantry?"

Hearing this, Tian Li was so surprised that he almost didn't realize it.

Although this rift valley cliff is indeed a dangerous place, the main danger is on the cliffs on both sides. After the army enters the passage, if someone sets up a mansion on both sides, it will have a great military advantage over the enemy troops who are in the passage below.

Whether it is an ambush or a retreat, the side that sets up an ambush will eventually have a great advantage.

But now the opponent didn't set up ambushes on both sides, but chose to block the exit with soldiers, and only shot [-] infantry to block the exit, which really surprised him.

"How about the equipment of these pawns?"

Tian Cheng asked immediately.

Tan Ma immediately replied: "They are all wearing standard military uniforms, and I haven't seen anyone in armor!"

Tian Cheng immediately showed joy, turned his head and said to his lieutenant general: "I thought the other party would bring out elite soldiers to block the door, but I didn't expect the other party to use [-] civilian infantry to block the door, and I don't know what to say He is confident, or should he be said to be stupid.

It’s nothing more than four thousand cloth armored infantry, piercing them is nothing more than putting in more effort for us...”

Although the lieutenant also agreed with this point of view, he still had doubts in his heart and said: "According to the general's information, the opponent is not just these [-] infantry, but their total number should be around [-], of which cavalry accounted for the majority.

Now there are only infantry in front of us, so where did their cavalry go? "

Tian Cheng thought for a while when he heard this, and then said: "The other [-] pawns, I reckon they should have stayed in place to guard the house.

As for the more than 1 cavalry, I would guess that they should be at Taniguchi!

The passage here is narrow, and too many troops cannot enter at all, and the troops did not set up ambushes on both sides, so the cavalry should be just outside the exit.

But don't worry, it can be seen from their [-] infantry that they don't even have dozens of armored ones.

But our army still has a Poyunxuan armored army with [-] points. When the time comes, after the opponent's front army rushes out of the valley, we will let the Poyunxuan armored army stand in front, and only wait for the opponent's cavalry If the charge slows down, their cavalry will be useless! "

The lieutenant general heard that the chief general had made arrangements, and it sounded like there was nothing wrong with it, Dang even nodded in agreement.

On Tian Cheng's side, arrangements were quickly made, and the original defensive formation quickly changed into a forward formation. In addition, the Poyunxuan Jia Army, which had been at the rear of the army, was transferred to the Central Army to facilitate support at that time.

But after an hour of effort, Tian Li saw the vanguard army who had set off earlier from far away.

Hurriedly led the army forward to meet up, and was shocked when they learned from the vanguard that the other party was building fortifications at Taniguchi!
If this terrain allows the opponent to build fortifications, then I don't know how much more troops will be consumed if I want to break through the opponent and go out of the valley.

After getting the news, he didn't dare to neglect, and immediately ordered the whole army to advance quickly and galloped in the direction of Taniguchi.

And at this time, on the cliffs on both sides...
