"Report, Lord, the old thief Tadun has left Liucheng with 15,000 gold tent wolf cavalry and marched towards Yangshan. According to reliable information, he has sent a message to all the ministries to mobilize the string control warriors and rush to Yangshan to meet up."
On the road leading from Junmi City to Pinggang City, an army of more than 100,000 people was meandering forward. However, they saw a horse riding at high speed from the southeast, reaching the Chinese army first. When they saw Gongsun Ming's face, they clung to him. He got off the horse in a rolling saddle, leaned down on one knee, and said a tight report.
"Oh? Yangshan? Come here, get the map!"
Upon hearing what Baima said, Gongsun Ming frowned slightly, but without much hesitation, he raised his hand and issued an order.
"Lord, it seems that Tadun is relying on Yangshan Mountain to block our army's attack and wait for Gongsun Du's reinforcements to arrive."
Following Gongsun Ming's order, a large map was quickly spread out on the ground. Pang Tong only glanced at it and immediately figured out Tadun's intention.
"Well, what the military advisor said is true. Tadun abandoned Liucheng and left. This was obviously thinking that if he could win, he would fight. If he couldn't, he would retreat across the Liaohe River. In this case, the original plan to capture Liucheng in the first place had to be made easier. That's it, that's good. I will lead the cavalry to Yangshan first, and strive to defeat Tadun's main force before Wuheng's troops complete their assembly. The military advisor can lead the infantry to follow up. As for Liucheng, I will go to Shenfei. Lead 10,000 infantry troops to sweep all the way. After taking Liucheng, there is no need to rush to join the main force. Just go west to appease the various ministries. Anyone who dares not to surrender will be killed without mercy!"
Gongsun Ming himself was also very good at military strategy. Pang Tong could see the fact that he could also do it. He just thought for a moment and issued several general orders in succession.
"promise!"
Since Gongsun Ming had made a decision, the generals would not have any objections, so they all agreed with a bang. Soon after hearing the sound of the trumpet of the Central Military Department, the sky was shaking, and nearly 20,000 cavalry began to accelerate, galloping like Thunder-like head galloped towards Pinggang City...
"Report to the Great Chanyu that Gongsun Xiaoer suddenly came galloping with 25,000 riders. We are only twenty miles away!"
Although they successfully evacuated to Yangshan and gathered nearly 30,000 string-controlling soldiers along the way, Tadun still did not dare to take it lightly. While sending people to Xiangping one after another to urge Gongsun Du to send troops to help quickly, he issued orders continuously, but he had not yet The warriors from various tribes who rushed to Yangshan accelerated their march, but they never thought that the reinforcements would not be able to wait. What they waited for was the bad news brought back by a ranger.
"What? Just the cavalry, huh?"
Tadun never expected that just one day after arriving at Yangshan, the Youzhou Army would catch up with him. He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly discovered that his side seemed to have many It was possible that Shao Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked a question.
"When I got back to Da Chanyu, I found only the Youzhou cavalry, but no infantry following them."
The soldiers who came to report the matter were originally ordered to gather the scattered tribal warriors, but they found Gongsun Ming's troops on the way, who were rushing towards him, so they hurried back to report the news, without searching carefully. The situation in the rear of the state army was heard and Tadun asked, and all he could give was an ambiguous answer.
"Come here, blow the trumpet: order all the ministries to assemble immediately to prepare for war. In addition, immediately send more rangers to investigate thoroughly for this Shanyu how many Han dogs have come!"
Since the Youzhou Army was approaching, no matter whether they were fighting or fleeing, they had to make preparations in advance. When he thought of this, Tadun did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately started roaring.
"Report to the Great Chanyu. The bandit army has stalled ten miles away from here. Their infantry has not been seen for several miles around."
Although Tadun's prestige was greatly reduced due to repeated defeats at the hands of the Youzhou Army, he was still the chief chanyu of the Wu Heng Kingdom. Once his order was issued, a large number of rangers naturally rushed to the west to detect the movements of the Youzhou Army. About half an hour later, just when the various units of Wu Heng's army were basically assembled, a ranger finally hurried back and brought the detected enemy intelligence to Tadun.
"Huh? What are the Han dogs doing?"
Hearing that the Youzhou Army actually stopped halfway along the road, Tadun couldn't help but be stunned.
"Returning to the Great Chanyu, the Han Dogs are heavily guarded around the area. We can't get too close. We can only vaguely see the Han Dogs drinking from the horses. They must be raising their horses."
After hearing the question, the reporter who came to report the matter obviously hesitated for a moment, and then gave an answer that was not too sure.
"Drinking horses? Hey, don't even think about it. Someone is here. Send the order: all the troops will set off immediately and head west quickly!"
Although the answer to the horse's report was not so certain, Tadun did not doubt that it was there, and there was nothing else to do with it, just because in his opinion, the Youzhou army could fight together until they were less than twenty miles away from their own camp. It was discovered that they definitely came all the way. In this case, it is inevitable to increase the horse power before the war. At this time, the combat power of the Youzhou Army is undoubtedly at its weakest. Dun couldn't let go of such a good opportunity to defeat the enemy. He just pondered for a moment and then raised his voice to issue an order. Immediately, he heard the loud sound of the trumpet of the Central Military Department, and a large number of Wu Heng's cavalry rushed quickly. Rushed to the west...
"Report, my lord, Mr. Tadun is leading an army of more than 16,000 cavalry, heading towards here at high speed. It's less than six miles away!"
When the war was about to start, not only the Wuheng army sent out patrols in large numbers, but the Youzhou army also sent out a large number of patrol posts. Under such circumstances, there was not much secret in the interaction between the two sides. When the army moved westward, a Youzhou sentry rushed back to the headquarters of the Youzhou army and reported the changes in the enemy's situation to Gongsun Ming.
"Okay, we are here as expected. Pass the order and the whole army must assemble and prepare for war!"
It is true that the Youzhou Army was trying to trick the enemy, but this was just a trick to lure the enemy - the Youzhou Army actually arrived within fifty miles of Yangshan Mountain before sunset yesterday, but did not rush any further. Instead, he slept in the open air and rested for a night before galloping forward in a grand manner. The reason why his whereabouts were not exposed along the way was that there were a large number of Wu Heng Army officers and soldiers in the Youzhou Army, including Hei Yeming and others. The Wu Heng generals disguised themselves as Wu Heng troops to clear the way, and controlled all the Wu Heng tribes they passed. It is strange that the ears and eyes of Tadun's troops are not functioning properly. The previous act of drinking horses in Youzhou was just It was just to lure Wu Heng's army out to fight. In fact, there was no need to spend a lot of time raising the war horses that had only galloped for more than 20 miles at a medium speed.
"Woo, woo, woo..."
As soon as Gongsun Ming gave the order, the horn of the Chinese Army suddenly sounded wildly. The more than 25,000 Youzhou cavalry who were resting immediately heard the order and moved quickly, taking the Chinese Army as the benchmark. Opened the battle formation...
