In the early morning, a gorgeous morning glow appeared in the east. In the hazy forest ravine in the morning mist, it was supposed to be the time when birds were singing in unison and everything was waking up, but at this time it was silent.
Wu Gen, Bao Xiang and others were sitting on a stone in the ditch, surrounding a map, discussing the next move.
Suo Ji came over, pointed to a place on the map and said: "Zhao Master, the Qiulin family and the Lu family have already faced off against the Southern Army. They are only 150 miles away from Jialingou. This Qiulin family's flying tiger The army lived up to its name, coming and going like the wind, harassing the Confederate army from time to time. The key point is that these people do not beat hard, they are just disgusting people. If you move forward, I will harass them. If you stop, I will station my horse to monitor them.
The Southern Army is making slow progress now. With this group of people around, it will be difficult to realize the pincer plan planned by the Northern and Southern armies. The key is that these people are blocking the way for us to meet the Shui Xiaowei, and a passage must be opened. "
Suoji never left after rendezvousing with Wu Gen. Since Wu Gen had few soldiers here, Shui Congyue asked him and Qiao Ban to take the Xingshan Volunteer Falcon Army to support Wu Gen.
Today, the Rebel Army has more than 140 birds and five shuttles. The number is still small and can only be used together.
So Wu Gen set up a separate section, with Suoji as the song leader, and Wan Yi as the falsetto leader to assist Suoji. In addition to daily reconnaissance, the mission of this army is mainly to assist the military operations, and it is not yet able to fight independently.
"The soldiers of the Lu family are not to be feared. The top priority is to separate the Flying Tiger Army from them and lead them here to annihilate them." Baoxiang scratched his head, "But this thing runs too fast. When we meet them, we have to run again. If you can't run away, even if you send people to lure the enemy, they may have their blood drained bit by bit before they reach Jialingou."
"As for running fast, there is a way." Meng Shun considered his words, but turned to look at Niu Chao who was secretly drinking.
Wu Gen's eyes lit up. Only the Mastiff Wolf could barely keep up with the Flying Tiger Army, and the only way to defeat the Flying Tiger Army was to let the Niu Chao fight.
Niu Chao, who was drinking happily, suddenly felt a strong malice coming from him. He turned around and saw that everyone present was looking at him with smiles.
Niu Chao hid the wine bottle in his arms, scratched his neck and cursed angrily: "You are a bunch of bastards. If you want to drink, you can find it yourself. How dare you rob a child."
Everyone turned their heads, and Zhang Wuyang considered it for a moment, "Fortress leader, in addition to Niu Chao, one more person needs to lead the team to lure the enemy. Leave this matter to me."
Several people nodded repeatedly and asked Niu Chao to lure the enemy. Just dream, there is no chance that this kid would slip back halfway, and only one person could guard him.
"I'll take Lexi there. His men are good at shooting, and with the help of mastiffs and wolves, they won't be too disadvantaged in long-distance attacks." Wu Gen suddenly said, and measured the map with his finger, "After I leave, Baoxiang As a co-ordinator, Wu Yang and Tu Dan each led a man and horse to lie in the woods on both sides, while Meng Shun led the troops to intercept the formation in the ditch. As soon as the Flying Tiger Army entered the ditch, Suoji led his men to kill the Flying Tigers outside the ditch from the air. The army drove them into the ditch and tried to kill as many enemies as possible."
"Master of the village, a gentleman will not stand under a dangerous wall. You should make arrangements here, and I will lead my men there." Zhang Wuyang hurriedly asked for a battle. There was no reason for the commander to lure the enemy. Besides, Wu Gen was appointed by Ji Ye. If the entire Northern Army's governor really makes a mistake, how can they fight later?
Wu Gen looked at Niu Chao, who looked suspicious, and shook his head, "I'll go ahead. The rogue can't tell you that as soon as you leave, he can sneak back."
Everyone also looked helpless. Only Wu Gen could shock Niu Chao. If it were someone else, if he didn't jump up and urinate on your face, it would be considered as a respectable one.
"What are you doing? You want me to die. If you don't go, don't go. Don't take advantage of me." Niu Chao also understood at this time that these people wanted to go out to lure the enemy by themselves. This kind of deadly work can What to do.
Wu Gen took out a piece of silver and stuffed it into Niu Chao's mouth, "Shut up from now on. After the battle is over, I will give you a jade coin."
Niu Chao blinked, whined and stretched out ten fingers.
With a clang sound, Wu Gen pulled out his broken sword. Niu Chao shrank his neck and retracted five of his fingers. Seeing that Wu Gen was about to chop, he quickly retracted two more fingers.
Wu Gen sheathed his sword again and turned around to continue discussing the details of the battle with everyone.
"Fortress leader, I will go with you. After all, I know some methods of controlling beasts, which may not come in handy." Suoji suddenly said from the side, "When I go, I will take the holly bird with me. If the enemy successfully enters the trap, I can return early on the Holly Bird and lead the Rebel Army to kill the opponent."
"Can it do well among mastiffs and wolves? It won't be timid." Wu Gen hesitated for a moment and looked at the holly bird that was prostrate not far away, chewing a bone. This bird hatched by itself, and like every parent in the world, they don't want to let it get involved if there are any risks.
Suoji smiled slightly, "You don't need to worry, sir. The Holly Bird has been fighting with the giant mastiffs in Xingshan every day. It is already the dominant one among the mastiffs. Those mastiffs and wolves are afraid of it. And it is also good at running, unlike ordinary mastiffs. No wolf can catch up with it. When the war is about to start, my subordinates will take it and fly back directly."
"Okay, just take it with you." Wu Gen was not a person who was procrastinating, so he high-fived and made up his mind.
After agreeing on all the details, Wu Gen asked Niu Chao to select 300 strong mastiff wolves, and asked Lexi to bring 600 soldiers, preparing to go out in person to lure the enemy.
The holly bird stood proudly in front of the mastiff wolf. Whenever a mastiff wolf tried to pass it, it would reach up with its paw. Now this bird has become more and more powerful, its dazzling fiery red tail feathers are as bright as fire, and the long feathers on its neck are shining like swords.
Wu Gen and Suoji jumped onto the holly bird, and the bird's broad back was more than enough to accommodate a few more people. Niu Chao's eyes lit up, and he pulled the feathers of the holly bird and prepared to climb up.
Ga, a clear cry came. The holly bird turned its head and glared at Niu Chao, its red eyes filled with murderous intent. Wu Gen wouldn't say anything, Suoji was also familiar with him, and a boy like a dog dared to sit on him, how could he not make the holly bird angry.
"What are you looking at? Be careful, I will pluck out your hair one by one, roast you and eat chicken." Niu Chao threatened fiercely, reaching out and making a chopping motion.
Poof, the holly bird spit out a line of fire, which happened to fall on Niu Chao. Although Niu Chao's body was thick, he was still a human being. How could he withstand such burning? He immediately rolled around in pain. He finally managed to put out the fire on his body, but he already had a large number of blisters.
This was because Holly Bird didn't want to take Wu Gen's life for Wu Gen's sake, otherwise he would be burned to ashes no matter how hard his life was.
Seeing how powerful the holly bird was, Niu Chao finally gave up the idea of riding with Wu Gen and chose a giant black mastiff that he often rode.
Leaving Jialingou, there is a flat wilderness, which is an excellent place for cavalry to gallop. No wonder the Flying Tiger Army and the Lu family soldiers were able to hold back the Confederate Army. It was really suitable for the Flying Tiger Army to fight.
After traveling for dozens of miles, scouts from the Flying Tiger Army gradually appeared in front. These cavalrymen were dressed in white armor and had two white wings behind them. They came and went like the wind on the green grassland, like dancing white doves.
Seeing this strange army riding a wolf mastiff, these scouts were standing in the distance, and soon a horse rushed over, loudly asking whose subordinates it belonged to.
Suoji took out a folded flag with a big Chinese character "Lu" on it and said, "Fortress leader, we can't deceive these people. It's possible that the news of our fearless army's betrayal has not reached these people's ears."
Wu Gen was stunned. He didn't expect that Suo Ji had prepared such a method. The Lu family was a family with ten thousand households in the southern part of the Iron Shou Province. They were far apart. It was impossible for these Flying Tigers to know each other. "Okay, what's the method?" Let’s use them all, as long as we can kill more of each other.”
"We are from the Lu family. We see that the Lu family's special forces are coming here, and there is a large group of people behind them. Who are you? Get out of the way quickly. We have to meet up with the coalition forces." Suo Ji stood on the holly bird and shouted. .
"We are the men and horses of the Qiulin family. Don't rush in. There is a battle ahead. Follow us and go to see my Qianhu family. We will talk about it after we identify our identities." These scouts were doubtful, but they did not dare to approach. The horses under them were I was also frightened when I saw these mastiff wolves.
"Okay." Suoji agreed, and under the leadership of more than a dozen Flying Tiger soldiers, they headed west. There were already people in front of them hurriedly riding horses to report back.
The further they went, the more flying tiger troops there were. These people looked at Wu Gen's three hundred mastiff wolves from a distance, and they were all a little curious.
In the distance, there was a loud and fast horn, and a white wave rushed towards us like an August wave. The rumble of horse hooves was as dull as thunder, accompanied by bursts of sharp whistles. This is a unique symbol of the Flying Tiger Army. When it runs at full speed, the wings on its back will make a strange cry, disturbing the opponent's horse and creating opportunities for itself to charge.
Feeling the vibrations on the ground, Wu Gen and Suoji looked at each other. This cavalry really lived up to its name. Not only is it extremely fast, but the undulating terrain has little impact on it. When they were only one mile away from the Fearless Army, the Flying Tiger Army slowly stopped. A man who looked like an officer raised his hand and looked at this side. A cursory glance showed that there were more than two thousand people in this wave of the Flying Tiger Army alone.
Ouch... A series of howls sounded around Wu Gen, but Niu Chao was dissatisfied with the other man's behavior. He stood on the mastiff and raised his head and roared. This move immediately attracted the echo of other mastiffs and wolves.
All of a sudden, all the mastiff wolves were howling. The long wolf howl and the short mastiff howl were mixed together. The sound shook the surrounding areas, and the huge plain suddenly became noisy.
This was great. The horses of the Flying Tiger Army were already afraid of these huge mastiff wolves, but this roar made them even more frightened. Some even urinated on the spot, and some turned around and ran away. For a while, the Flying Tiger Army on the opposite side was in chaos.
"Control your mounts." The officer on the opposite side shouted loudly, trying his best to pull the reins of the horse beneath him to prevent the horse from losing control.
Good opportunity, Wu Gen and Suo Ji looked at each other. At this time, the opponent's position was in chaos, which was a good opportunity to attack.
"Come with me." Wu Gen stood up from the bird and shouted angrily, pointing his knife straight at the Flying Tiger Army opposite. Holly Bird and Wu Gen have been together for a long time, and they have reached the point where their hearts are connected. Wu Gen didn't even need to push him, he had already rushed out like an arrow and pointed directly at the officer.
Lexi next to her saw this and quickly grabbed the horn on her body. The sound of whining and urging was heard, drowning out the neighing of the horses and the howling of the mastiffs and wolves. The fearless army waved their halberds, fired arrows angrily, and rushed towards the Flying Tiger Army.
The tall mastiff wolves, with their backs half-hunched and their necks hunched, their eyes emitting a faint fierce light, exuding a wild aura, were like countless sharp swords cutting through the waves, cutting into the churning white waves.
One mile, for these mastiffs and wolves, is a distance of more than ten steps. We can't blame the Flying Tigers for being careless. There are thousands of friendly troops behind them. I originally thought that there were only a few hundred mastiff wolves here, no matter how ferocious they were, how could they dare to attack.
Wu Gen jumped up from the holly bird and stared at the officer opposite. The broken knife gave off an ominous cold light and turned into waves of turbid waves, roaring and crashing into the Flying Tiger Army on the opposite side.
In his first attack, Wu Gen used Tianluo without any reservation. This style can be used for both catching and fighting and group attacks. It is the first choice for fighting against each other.
The majestic sword energy threatens the vegetation on the ground, like the Tianhe River bursting its banks, washing away the Flying Tiger Army on the opposite side again and again.
The officer was indeed a veteran. When he saw the opponent's sword energy at the first sight, he knew that he could not avoid it. In desperation, he held the sword in both hands and danced. The brilliant sword light was like a white lotus blossoming in the sky. Floating and hanging alone in the turbid waves.
Some people died, but not completely...
