Chapter 91 The troops are divided into two groups
In front of the camp of the border town garrison, a huge team gathered, and at a glance it was a dense mass.
Agui, who was driving the car, was surprised when he saw this, "This... this is to go to the Forgotten Valley for rescue. If you don't know, you thought our border city defenders were going to attack Mobei."
He was just complaining casually, but Wen Wan, who was sitting behind, lifted the curtain to take a look and agreed.
"They are going to attack Mobei."
Agui: "No, it's impossible, right?"
Duan Dynasty and Mobei have been at odds with each other for many years. Although there have been constant frictions, burning, killing and looting often occur around the border. The Mobei people are good at guerrilla warfare and often change places after looting a village. By the time Duan Dynasty's large army arrives, the people will have already been there. Ran out.
In the past few years, after Shen Yu had been stationed at the border, he specially built a group of brave light cavalry. They were extremely fast and ruthless. After defeating several teams of Mobei people, the border was calmed down.
The Mobei people's city is in an oasis thousands of miles away. The two sides want to attack each other. Not only the journey is difficult, but also there are many dangers along the way. Therefore, for so many years, they have not reached the point where the army has pressed down on the border.
Therefore, Agui couldn't understand it.
Xu Shi saw his doubts and added gently: "Actually, to be more precise, the border city defenders were not really attacking, but a feigned attack."
"Pretending to fight?" Agui became more and more confused as he listened.
He was about to ask in detail, but he heard the sound of horse hooves on the path beside him.
A hooded old man rushed down the hillside on horseback. He had a gray beard but was full of energy, and his eyes were piercing.
The old man reined in his horse and stopped, looking in Wen Wan's direction.
"At such a young age, he has such insight, which really surprises me."
Agui seemed to recognize the old man and was very respectful to him. When he saw him, he immediately jumped out of the carriage and saluted.
"Mr. Min."
Mr. Min waved his hand, looked at Agui, and then at Wen Wan, "She...is that female Zhuge who 'knows a little bit'?"
A female Zhuge who knows a thing or two?
What the hell is this name?
Wen Wan opened her big eyes with a confused look on her face.
Agui nodded and replied to Mr. Min, "You really have a fierce gaze. Yes, she is Miss Xiaowan."
He turned around and introduced to Wen Wan, "This is Mr. Min, the military advisor of the border city garrison."
When Wen Wan heard this, she was in awe and got out of the carriage to say hello to Mr. Min.
Mr. Min responded, handed the reins to Agui, and said: "You are also going to the Forgotten Valley, right?"
Agui was stunned, "Yes? Is it possible... that you want to go in person?"
Old Min said: "Originally I planned to go, but now that she is going, I don't have to go."
Neither Wen Wan nor Agui understood.
Mr. Min explained: "Since Xiaowan has guessed that the large force of our border city defenders is going to pretend to attack Mobei, then you should know that we are going to divide our troops into two groups, attacking from the east and attacking from the west."
Just be gentle and say, "So, you want to lead a large army to pretend to attack Mobei, contain the forces in Mobei, and give us a chance to rescue the general?"
"Yes," Mr. Min sighed: "The general personally led our light cavalry to the Forgotten Valley, but was trapped in the valley. With his ability like this, it means that Mobei is by no means a small team fighting for the night. ”
"Well," Wen Wan also agreed with his point of view, "the worst case scenario is the main force in Mobei. Even if they are lucky enough not to be the main force in Mobei, they will definitely be the defenders on the border of Mobei."
Talking to smart people saves effort.
After just a few words of exchange, Mr. Min's eyes filled with approval when he looked at Wen Wan.
Old Min said: "Originally, I planned to lead a group of light cavalry to the Forgotten Valley, and let a few of my boys lead the troops to pretend to attack Mobei. I don't know what is going on over there in the Forgotten Valley, and I must get there as soon as possible. I am an old man. No matter how hard it is, there is nothing we can do about it.”
After a pause, he said happily: "It's okay now. I can rest assured that you will rush over with Qingqi." Wen Wan: "..."
You really think highly of her.
Wen Wan curled her lips, "You really know how to joke. How can I, an outsider, lead the Qingqi soldiers?"
In this era, men are superior to women, and not everyone can accept that women are more powerful than men.
This trip was rushed and dangerous, and she didn't have time to help them repair their team.
Mr. Min: "Don't worry, someone will help you. Gao Ling will also follow."
Gao Ling?
"He went back to the border town?"
Wen Wan has not seen him for several months. It is said that he went to the Imperial Capital to make a big deal.
Although Gao Ling is a businessman, he also holds a casual position in the border town garrison. He manages all the expenses and accounts of the garrison.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
These days, as long as you are in charge of money, you definitely have the right to speak. In the border city garrison, your status is no less than that of a military advisor.
So he followed, and he was really able to shock people.
Mr. Min: "It's a coincidence. He just came back yesterday and this happened to him."
A few people walked while talking, and soon they arrived at the gate of the camp.
Sure enough, Wen Wan saw Gao Ling in the distance. He was wearing a riding suit embroidered with gold thread and was counting people.
Mr. Min led Wen Wan and A Gui over and told him that they wanted to separate. Gao Ling immediately agreed.
He has seen Wen Wan's ability, so he naturally has confidence in her.
"That's fine. You are the backbone of our border city garrison. I'm worried that your body won't be able to survive this journey. When the general comes back, you will have to blame me."
Gao Ling glanced at the direction of the army again, "Besides, the Mobei people are full of tricks, so it would be more appropriate for you to personally watch the large force of the border city defenders."
At that time, no one thought that Gao Ling's joke would actually come true. Fortunately, there were military advisors following the large army, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
*
The war drums are thundering and the horns are solemn.
Everyone got ready and set off, and the mighty team advanced towards Mobei, stirring up waves of dust and sand, like rough waves, and full of unstoppable momentum.
Several specially trained hawk whistles flew over the team.
Wen Wan raised her head and glanced up. For a moment, she felt a little dazed.
Who would have thought that in modern society, sitting in an office and staying up late and working overtime, she would one day accompany the army on an expedition.
The light cavalry team of two hundred people quickly separated from the large force of the border town defenders and marched non-stop to the depths of the grassland.
After it got dark, the light cavalry team stopped to rest.
Wen Wan got off the horse with Agui's help. After riding for a day, her legs were trembling.
Gao Ling came over and handed her a box of ointment, "At the current speed, it will take us half a month to reach Wanghe River Valley, so I think..."
Wen Wan was not polite to him. After taking the medicine, she said in a deep voice: "Let's continue on our way after dinner. I can hold on. Half a month is indeed too long. We have to travel two more hours every night. Can we Arrive within ten days ”
Shen Yu and his party have been besieged for more than half a month, and now every minute and second of delay may be a torment for them to survive.
