Liu Fa looked at Liu Zhongwu's beloved son, and he had a lot of dealings with Liu Qi along the way.
Liu Qi, who has an enthusiastic and outgoing personality, is young, and is already very knowledgeable in military and military strategies, is also very popular with Liu Fa.
A rare gentle smile appeared on the character's face.
"Uncle Xin (Liu Qi's nickname), please excuse me. I know that you have a good relationship with Gao Xuanfu, so I specially asked you to come over and take a look at this warrant."
"Is this the warrant sent by the champion?"
When Liu Qi heard this, his eyes lit up and he took it in his hand.
Liu Fa stood on the high hill with his hands behind his back, looking at the landforms of the south of the Yangtze River where low hills and roads intersected.
For the elite Forbidden Army cavalry, it can be said to be quite unfriendly.
However, only cavalry is the fastest moving force in this era.
But facing such terrain, it would be extremely difficult to launch a large-scale cavalry assault.
Over there, Liu Qi had already read the order sent by Gao Zhang, raised his head, and looked at the solemn-faced General Liu Fa.
"General, I have finished reading. It seems that Gao Xuanfu has made a plan and is preparing to annihilate the main force of the Zhuchi rebels in the Wangting Town area."
"Based on what I know about Gao Xuanfu, he has always acted cautiously and would never set the battlefield here without preparation."
Liu Fa nodded, but he was still a little uneasy, although he remembered that Liu Qi had said that Gao Xuan Fu was quite knowledgeable in military strategy.
Since he knows that the reinforcements are cavalry, he should also consider whether the cavalry is suitable for what this battlefield looks like.
However, instead of being afraid of ten thousand, just in case, Liu Fa felt that he still couldn't place his hopes on a child.
After all, the child prodigy champion is only twelve years old after all. A twelve-year-old child may be superior to others because of his talent and knowledge, and he is also very good at talking on paper.
But what's interesting is that in this warrant, Gao Xuanfu conveyed a simple and clear meaning.
You command the troops, so you make decisions when the opportunity arises, and I don’t interfere. I will even visit the battle formation in person and use it as bait to attract the enemy...
In this way, the pressure was directly transferred to Liu Fa.
After all, the soldiers and horses around Gao Xuanfu really come from all over the world and do not belong to each other. They can only be used as bait with such appearance.
If when the time comes, I cannot send my troops to defeat the enemy in time, haha...
When I thought about the smiling and friendly-looking Taiwei Gao Qiu, Tong Guan and Cai Xiang's biological son were all in that team.
If there was anything wrong with this, Liu Fa would feel unreasonable and his scalp would feel numb.
If something happens to these three little babies here, there will be three advantages and two disadvantages.
Liu Fa felt that even if he could defeat thousands of armies, he would still be tortured to death by these three big men who covered the sky with their hands.
Thinking of this, Liu Fa secretly wiped a drop of cold sweat from his forehead that was frightened by his own imagination, and turned his head to look at Liu Qi's face.
"Now our garrison is only more than thirty miles away from the battlefield set by Gao Xuanfu."
"Then you go with me, otherwise, I will be worried after all..."

The purpose of presetting the battlefield was to occupy the favorable location. After all, with few troops and horses nowadays, Gao Zhang naturally wanted to find a terrain that was easy to defend and difficult to attack as a battlefield.
In addition, this battlefield needs to be wide and flat enough to be suitable for cavalry assault.
Otherwise, it would be too much of a waste for the three thousand cavalry who rushed to the rescue in the starry night to abandon their horses and become soldiers.
As early as after he began to encourage the Zhu family and his son to rebel, Gao Zhang had been choosing a suitable battlefield.
The best location is a few miles southeast of Wangting Town, where there is a large flat deserted beach with several small streams flowing.
Compared to other places that were either muddy paddy fields or deep ditches and low hills, this was already the best battlefield Gaozhang could choose within a hundred miles.
"A car? He wants it no matter what kind of car it is?"
Huzhou Zhizhou looked at the official document from Gao Zhang with a confused look on his face. This represented the order from the supreme commander of the Liangzhe Road and Jiangnan East Road.
But this order always made the Huzhou magistrate feel a little confused.
"Yes Zhizhou, and Gao Xuanfu also said that all vehicles must be registered.
It will always be considered as a personal loan. If there is any damage, compensation will be based on the price of the new car. "
"Whether it's a carriage, an ox cart, or even a rickshaw, he needs it all, but the request must be delivered to the southeast of Nawangting Town before six days and nights..."
"Are you sure that Gao Xuanfu really just wants the car, instead of asking us to fill the car with food or other things?"
Huzhou Zhizhou once again looked at the messenger who was ordered to come, and saw that the other party confirmed it with great certainty.
The Huzhou magistrate was relieved, but he did not dare to neglect. He began to issue orders and summoned a group of state officials.
Let them all mobilize, even if they are walking through the streets, be sure to get more cars for the prodigy champion.
No matter what kind of cart it is, as long as it has wheels and can be pushed by people, it doesn't matter even if you have two or three people pulling an ox cart.

As the gate of Suzhou City opened, 30,000 soldiers and horses began to move toward the outside of Suzhou City in a mighty manner.
As the emperor of Wu Kingdom, Zhu Meng, who was wearing armor, sat on a cart pulled by six horses.
Surrounded by a full five hundred cavalry, they marched forward.
It's just that the scale of these five hundred cavalry seems to be quite large, but in fact, there are only more than a hundred horses here that can be used as war horses.
The remaining ones were either old and weak, or were crossbow horses suitable only for pulling carts. Even mules were pulled to make up the number, and this was enough to make up the number of five hundred.
Even among the five hundred cavalry, only a hundred of them had iron armor, but they still looked majestic. Even on the battlefield, their posture was very intimidating.
Not long after the large army left the city, a horse came from the south and came to the city gate at high speed.
Not long after, a letter asking for help from Wujiang County was presented to Zhu Meng.
"At least four to five thousand officers and soldiers were found outside Wujiang County..."
"Where did the officers and soldiers here come from?"
Zhu Meng, who looked at the news with a dark face, almost wanted to curse.
I was just about to send my troops north, but Xiuzhou was defeated, and there was an invasion of Wujiang County troops here. Is this a joke?
"Tell General Deng to lead two thousand troops and quickly go south to reinforce Wujiang County."
"Remember, you are not allowed to fight the enemy outside the city. You are only allowed to enter the city and defend it until I personally conquer Wangting Town and achieve victory.
Then march southward, and let the court know the power of my elite Wu army. "
On the side, several generals who had hurriedly arrived, as well as Ning Guoshi, all looked at the separate unit that was rushing towards the south of Suzhou.
