"Still going north?" After hearing the information, Hu Guan laughed angrily, "Aren't you planning to launch a surprise attack? What do you mean by going all the way north?"
"General Hu Guan, my guess is that he wants to get rid of this group of people like me. If he succeeds, it won't be long before he goes south again and continues his surprise attack."
"What kind of surprise attack is this? He has been seen through. Whether it is General Shentu or the sheepherder's military advisor, they have all discovered his troops."
Xie Yu was speechless for a moment. Hu Guan was right. It was obvious that the Duanhou camp in Xishu had been seen through, so they were still going north? Fool?
It's a pity that I know this but can't ignore it. Fortunately, his own sheepherders and military advisors were not fooled and only sent them to chase and follow him.
"Xie Yu, do you know the name of that Shu general?"
Xie Yu thought for a while, "I don't know. I just know that he is a young Shu general, and he is probably a descendant of Shu thieves."
"I can't care anymore. Send the order and continue the pursuit."
"Hu Guan's former army, the scouts said that there is a stream not far ahead." Another Beiyu general next to him hurriedly followed.
"How big is the creek?"
"Less than three feet."
"What can a three-foot-long river do? Are the Shu people over there still relying on water to fight? Don't forget, this is not Xiangjiang." Jie Yu sneered.
Hu Guanshen thought so.
As long as the river is three feet long, bows and arrows can shoot each other at both ends of the river.
"All troops, continue the pursuit!"
Nearly 10,000 Beiyu infantrymen and 3,000 cavalry battalions all followed Hu Guan and pursued him all the way to the direction of Xishu's rear camp.
On the other side, Yuchi Ding, who was also chasing after him, looked extremely cold. Along the way, he kept sending out scouts to explore the damn Xishu army, and at the same time, he wanted to pay attention to whether Chao Yi of the wolf clan was also following the army and flanking the rear.
"No Shu cavalry was found. In addition, the Duanhou camp of Western Shu has continued to the north."
Hearing this, Yu Chiding breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the plan of the Shu people is really to keep the army and kill General Shentu. It's a pity that the surprise attack failed and the troops were insufficient. Behind them, more troops from Beiyu arrived.
Xishu's plan may come to nothing. Now, it's time to make achievements and avenge his two adopted brothers.
At this thought, Yuchi Ding became even more filled with hatred. The thought of becoming famous all over the world also burned in his chest again.
"Mount the army!"
…
Standing in this formation, Xu Mu's expression remained unchanged. In front of him were the tens of thousands of people who wanted to win the Tu Guan. Behind, there was also an army of sheepherders coming. It is even said that the ever-victorious army will arrive soon.
"Brother Mu, why don't you go around?" Si Hu said dissatisfiedly while eating the kitchen food.
"How do you get around being stared at all the time?"
Like Little Dog Fu, the Duanhou Army, which had less than 10,000 people, was still being stared at. If he dared to make a detour at will, I am afraid that Shen Tuguan would take advantage of the opportunity and send out a large army to intercept the front and rear. Coupled with the sheepherders behind, the battle damage would definitely be a terrifying figure.
Moreover, he was not a defeated army, so why did he do it? On the contrary, here, with the cooperation of Xiaoqiao Fu, he is going to win a big victory.
But now, it is not the best opportunity to attack.
Shen Tu Guan was waiting in a tight formation, and the shepherds were watching eagerly. If they started fighting at will, both he and Dongfang Jing would be dragged into the quagmire and fall into passivity.
Now, both he and Shen Tuguan in front of him seemed to be in a trap. As long as there is the first flaw in this weird battle situation, it is very likely to usher in a big defeat.
Opposite the Shu army.
Shen Tuguan half-squinted his eyes, "If he doesn't move, I won't move. When more and more reinforcements come from Beiyu, King Xu Shu will be defeated. I can't figure out what other strange moves he can make now." ? What about the Duanhou camp? More than 10,000 people are being watched all the time again, and they are of no use."
"By the way, where is the lame man?"
"Brother, he didn't move either."
"The lame man was unable to break through my ancient formation before. Now it seems that he is waiting for King Xu Shu's military order. Just watch, Shentu. As long as King Xu Shu dares to attack, the lame man will definitely follow suit. .”
Although they were attacking from both front and back, Shen Tu Guan was not too panicked now. On the left and right, the sheepherd's men and horses have arrived. It is not yet known who will win.
"King Xu Shu, after all, he doesn't dare to fight."
Shentu next to him laughed, "Brother, I wonder if King Xu Shu is still waiting for the surprise attack?"
"Shentu, don't underestimate your enemy."
Shen Tu Guan exhaled, his face still extremely cautious.
…
To the north, Little Dog Fu led more than ten thousand people to the edge of the river. As the previous scouts said, the river in front of us is not very wide, only about three feet.
A half-year-old child can easily swim to the other side if he puts in some effort. Even a bow and arrow can still be plucked and shot to the other side.
Following Little Dog Fu, several lieutenants and captains from Xishu did not understand for a moment what their own General Xiao Han was going to do.
Little Dog Fu raised his head and looked at Hezi in front of him, his eyes suddenly became dark. His teacher taught him that on the battlefield, if the enemy's force is strong, the best way is to take advantage of it.
The area around Lizhou is all flat, so there is no way to hide troops, and there are no dense forests of snake paths. The only thing in front of them is a river no more than three feet long.
"How far away are the enemy troops?"
"We will catch up in about half an hour."
"Is there anyone in the army who is good at diving into rivers?"
"General Xiao Han, of course there is. We are all southerners, and southerners are good at water." One of the assistant generals laughed.
"As soon as possible, find three thousand people who are good at diving in the river, take straw stalks to ventilate, and then listen to my military orders. When the time comes, dive into the river immediately."
"General Xiao Han, where are the remaining people?"
"You have to swim to the other side within one stick of incense."
"Swim to the other side...General Han, are we going to join the strange army? After swimming across, the Beiyu people only need 3,000 men and horses to hold on to the river bank with a bow and arrow formation. If we want to swim again, It will be difficult to come back.”
"How can you be a Qijun when you are being stared at all the time?" Little Dog Fu asked.
The Xi Shu Pi general who spoke was silent for a while and sighed bitterly.
"In addition, we crossed the river not just to avoid it. If we can use this three-foot river channel, it will be a sharp weapon to stop horses. Don't forget that we are just an army of infantry. Under this kind of terrain, as long as we are charged by the Beiyu people, it is very likely that we will be defeated."
Puppy Fu sounded serious, raised his head and looked around.
"In my opinion, this river is what we rely on to achieve extraordinary achievements. All of you, please join me, Han Xing, to kill the enemy and break up the captives!"
"Of course!" I couldn't explain why, but many people in Duanhou camp had an inexplicable trust in the young Xishu general in front of them.
