Chapter 597
Three days is enough for the army to travel a long distance, so Bashik has no idea that the back road has been copied.

However, Master Bashik also quickly discovered the problem, because the guide who led the way suddenly disappeared. Not only that, but the army traveled all the way without encountering a Tibetan tribe.

Bashik also knows that the conditions in the snow area are difficult and sparsely populated is a normal phenomenon, but it is not impossible for no herdsman to see it!

When the army went out, it was true that they did not bring food and grass, and they also extorted a lot of supplies from Nibala, but it is not an exaggeration to say that the daily consumption of tens of thousands of troops is astronomical.

Because of Dusong Mangbu, the big ghost, Bashik still thought about getting some more supplies from the snow area, but now he can't even see a shadow of a ghost, what a waste of supplies!
Feeling something bad, Bashik suddenly remembered that he had heard people say that there was a strategy in the Chinese art of war called fortifying the wall and clearing the field.

Thinking about his current situation, could it be that he also fell into Ming's trick?
Taking the existing food and grass in the big army camp as an example, unless they defeat the Ming army and take the city of Jarsa, they will not be able to persist in returning to Delhi.

Bashik has rich experience in combat. Although he didn't panic, he didn't tell the generals below what he thought, but he issued an order to order the rangers in the army to expand the search range, and at the same time rob Tibetans for military use. , at this time, it's time to tear off the mask of kindness.

When I was not a general in the past, I encountered many more critical situations than now. Can I still be intimidated by this little difficulty in front of me?

Master Bashik, who is full of fighting spirit, does not know that fortifying the wall and clearing the field is only the first step. Whether it is the Jiandao Battalion or the Ganzi Battalion, what they are best at in Liaodong is guerrilla warfare, and a major feature of guerrilla warfare is destruction.

At a place more than [-] miles away from Jasa City, the Bashik army settled down. According to the current speed, they will be able to arrive at Jasa City by tomorrow evening, which means that they may start a war with the Ming army at any time. , so before that, it is necessary to keep the soldiers adequately rested.

The sky was getting dark gradually, and the wind on the plateau was so strong that it made the tents and flags rattle, as if they were about to be blown off.

After a day of rapid march, the soldiers were exhausted. Except for some soldiers on guard duty, most of them got into the tent early.

Bashik didn't feel sleepy at all, the closer he got to Jasa City, the worse he felt.

Although nothing had happened yet, years of combat experience told him that the Ming army was not as vulnerable as Dusong Mangbu said, and what was waiting ahead was probably not a city that could be broken in an instant, but a huge trap.

Dusong Mangbu's sudden loss of contact is the best evidence, but he has already arrived here, and he has to fight a battle no matter what.

The army that went out to collect food and grass during the day was not going well. The people in the entire snow-covered plateau seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. This situation can be explained as sparsely populated when they first entered Tibet. It can only be said that people did it on purpose.

Bashik's big tent is still so luxurious, enjoying and fighting are two different things, besides, he can't let his beauty suffer along with him.

Lying on the table, he wrote a letter to His Majesty Chahanjie, in which he recorded in detail the situation he encountered along the way, as well as the current situation. At the end of the letter, he asked Chahanjie for instructions. Is it possible to retreat strategically?After all, this is the land of the Ming Dynasty, and this battle is still based on preserving strength.

After the letter was written, it was sealed, and the guards were summoned, and he was ordered to send it back to Delhi immediately tomorrow morning.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise from a distance, and then the curtain was lifted, and the head of the guards rushed in.

"My lord, something is wrong, the supply camp is on fire."

"what?"

Bashik jumped up from behind the table in shock, and ran out without even putting on his clothes.

In the night, with the help of the wind, the fire turned into a prairie fire in a blink of an eye. From a distance, it seemed that the entire camp was set on fire.

Although there was a barrier between the supply camp and the front army, the flames flying all over the sky could not be blocked by anything. In a blink of an eye, the tents of the front camp also burned.

As the fire got bigger and bigger, in the flames, countless soldiers who had no time to escape screamed and rolled happily in the fire. How could the scene be described in one word?
When Bashik saw this, he was frightened out of his wits, and without turning his head, he told the guards beside him, "Pack up your things and get out of the camp!"

These Ming troops are really bad, the plateau is so cold, and we are short of food, how can you burn my food and tents?
Because of the distance, Bashik really snatched a lot of things.

Two beauties are a must, what Persian blankets, what machetes inlaid with gems, what expensive clothing.
Amid the noise, many soldiers also escaped from the flames like Bashik, but the soldiers were not so lucky.

Some were disheveled, and some simply ran out with a felt blanket on. Many people's beards and eyebrows were burnt, and they were as embarrassed as they wanted. The most important thing was that many people came out empty-handed. They died in the sea of ​​fire for their master.

Recalling the boundless scenery during the expedition, Bashik really wanted to cry but had no tears.

How can we fight this battle?Looking at the current situation, not to mention returning to Delhi, it is not bad to get to Jasa. If the Ming army launches another attack at this time, the consequences will be even more disastrous
Bashik's guess was half right. In the shadowy place upwind, the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Battalion and the Dare Battalion stared at Bashik and his army like wolves.

If you attack at this time, you can indeed kill a large number of enemies, but this is not the best effect.

Qin Liangyu and the three warriors decided to wipe out the invading enemy, but the meaning of wipeout does not necessarily mean killing them all.

This is more than 4 high-quality laborers. In the middle of Sichuan, mountains need to be built to build roads, and roads in snowy areas also need to be repaired. It would be a pity if all these people were killed.

Qin Liangyu's order was useless, Cao Bianjiao and He Guangxian had a tacit understanding not to launch an attack at this time.

In fact, the war has progressed to this point, and there is no suspense anymore, including Bashik himself, who has already thought about it, and that is surrender!Only in this way can the maximum strength be preserved.

Bashik didn't know that at this moment, he and his subordinates had become a strong labor force in the eyes of Cao Bianjiao and He Guangxian.
This night was the longest night that Bashik had ever spent in his life. Shame, fear, confusion, etc. were all mixed together, and he seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight.

Unknowingly, the long night finally passed, and the fire that raged all night gradually extinguished.

When the first ray of sunlight rose in the east, the Mughal soldiers were shocked to find that they were surrounded by heavily armed Ming soldiers.

The jet-black iron armor and the gleaming weapons frightened everyone's courage. At this time, Bashik probably gave the order to prepare for a counterattack, and no one would obey his orders.

Fortunately, Bashik did not issue such an order, and soon a white flag was raised with the sun at the place where the Mughal soldiers gathered most.
