The first twenty-six chapters [quirks]
The gourd forest is twenty miles southeast of Liguchuan. There is a concave valley with wide sides. The valley is like a waist, shaped like a gourd, and there are trees. Now on the winter snow day, the number is like towering spears, densely packed.,,
This place is also in a secret place, and it is convenient to move forward to the continuous mountains at the junction of the two counties.
Zhu Xiaoyan and the Eight Hundred Wind Riders lived here. The Eight Hundred Wind Riders were all covered with white cloaks, and in the heavy snow, it was like hiding between the earth.
When Han Mo saw Zhu Xiaoyan, Zhu Xiaoyan was sitting under a big tree and ate with steamed buns. He seemed to have always carried steamed buns. The steamed buns were like his snacks. When he was free, he would be interested in cutting steamed buns with a dagger to eat.
When he saw Han Mo, he put away the steamed buns and daggers, and asked straight to the point: "Do you want to ask me why I didn't lead the troops to camp in the aristocratic military camp?"
Han Mo sighed and said, "You naturally have a good reason."
"I just think that the wind cavalry is your hard work, and there is no need to lose it in such a war." Zhu Xiaoyan said lightly: "When you enter the military camp of the aristocratic family, the wind cavalry will be constrained everywhere, without independence, and without secrets."
"I understand independence." Han Mo asked with his hands on his back: "What do you mean by secret nature? Do you mean that you don't want Ye Wu's coalition army to know about our movements?"
Zhu Xiaoyan said seriously: "At least, we cannot let other aristocratic soldiers know us too much. Maybe they may know our existence, but they must know very little about our specific situation. If we stationed in aristocratic soldiers, they will easily grasp our situation." He thought for a while before continuing: "The real sharp blade cannot be pulled out easily, and not let too many people know its sharpness."
"Compared with the aristocratic army, our wind cavalry is considered sharp." Han Mo smiled and said, "But this time we came to grind this sharp blade to make him sharper?"
"We need to choose a good whetstone to polish the sharp blade." Zhu Xiaoyan's expression was calm: "Fifth Young Master, the cavalry must play the greatest role, which requires space to impact, and some strategies need to be paid attention to. Now the one that stands in front of the aristocratic army is Ligu Pass. Attacking the pass, the cavalry has no advantage. Letting the cavalry attack the level can only die in vain."
Han Mo nodded and said, "Yes, Ligu Pass is full of bows, crossbows, wood and stones. When the cavalry rushed to the city, they would not only fail to break through the wall, but would also lose a large number of people and horses. The wind cavalry was strong and the plains had a strong killing power, but it was not possible to attack the pass."
Zhu Xiaoyan said: "The Fifth Young Master said it well. So if we want to train troops through this war, we can only choose a battlefield that suits us. Before Ligu Pass is captured by the aristocratic army, we should not act rashly."
Han Mo pondered for a moment before saying, "I just came from Liguchuan. Although the aristocratic families have many soldiers, I have not seen any signs of attacking Ligu Pass. I don't think they will launch an attack on Ligu Pass in the past two days. The major aristocratic families will sit down and discuss it carefully. There is no specific combat plan, even if there are many people and many people, it will be just a mess of sand."
Zhu Xiaoyan sneered: "Fifth Master, I'm sorry, if your aristocratic army fails to reach unification as soon as possible, it is still unknown who will win or lose in this war. Now the aristocratic army is under the banner of suppressing rebellion, and its momentum is like a rainbow, but if it continues to drag on it, its morale will become lower and lower. You should know that morale is of great use for marching and fighting."
Han Mo sighed: "You are right. This is also the biggest problem of the aristocratic army."
"The reason why Ye and Wu families dare to rebel is, firstly, they are confident in their own strength, and secondly, they have a clear understanding of the coalition forces of the aristocratic families. Although they are stationed at the pass, this is a situation of defense as an offensive. As long as they guard the pass, the aristocratic families will not be able to fight. Over time, there will definitely be huge differences within the aristocratic families. Moreover, the two aristocratic families have more than 100,000 troops, and the daily supplies required is not a small amount. Does the court have the ability to support it for a long time?
It is a question mark. Ye and Wu army are fighting locally, with rich material reserves, familiar with the terrain, and able to fight protracted wars. When the morale of the aristocratic army is low and there is an opportunity, the Ye and Wu army will definitely be dispatched in full swing. At that time, the aristocratic army is likely to collapse thousands of miles away." Zhu Xiaoyan said slowly: "So for the primary target of the two armies, the Ye and Wu coalition forces are defending the dead, consuming the materials and morale of the aristocratic army, but the aristocratic army must break through Ligu Pass as soon as possible, so you can't afford to delay."
Zhu Xiaoyan's clear analysis of the situation made Han Mo stunned. He said in surprise: "Xiao Zhu, my admiration for you is getting stronger and stronger now."
Zhu Xiaoyan said calmly: "This situation is not difficult to see. I think the generals of the aristocratic army know it well. However, your Yan family has their own interests that they need to protect. This is your fatal weakness. Once the aristocratic army cannot unite in this battle, the consequences for your aristocratic army will be worse than you think."
"Wait." Han Mo narrowed his eyes and said, "For the major aristocratic army, the greatest interest is to ensure that the family will not be destroyed. Even if there are internal conflicts between the aristocratic coalition forces, I don't seem to want to see their family trampled by the Ye and Wu families."
Zhu Xiaoyan thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Fifth Young Master, this should be an opportunity for you."
"Opportunity?" Han Mo blinked and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhu, can you tell me what opportunity this is for me?"
Zhu Xiaoyan's mouth was filled with strange smiles: "The chance to become famous! If you are lucky, you can become famous in one battle!"
Han Mo laughed and said, "I really can't see that I will become famous in this war. We came here this time just to practice the team. I even thought that if the situation was too dangerous, I would rather give up this training opportunity and take the Fengqi back to Donghai County. As for what you said to be famous, I have never thought about it."
"The Fifth Young Master doesn't want to become famous?" Zhu Xiaoyan shook his head: "You should not be the purpose of forming a Fengqi for a moment, right? You have ambitions in your bones. Once you become famous, it will definitely be very helpful for the realization of your ambitions."
Han Mo stared at Zhu Xiaoyan with a sharp look and said lightly: "Actually, I don't like the word ambition. You can say I have ambition."
Zhu Xiaoyan didn't say much nonsense, but said directly: "I have sent people to the Ligu Mountains to inquire to see if I can find a way, and also let people look for people who are familiar with the terrain of the Ligu Mountains nearby."
"What do you want to do?" Han Mo asked with a frown.
"In the continuous mountains, besides Ligu Pass, I believe there are other roads that can be inserted into Bozhou County." Zhu Xiaoyan said seriously: "Although it is not easy to find, I hope we can be lucky to find it. All we need is a road that can lead us to the eight hundred Fengqi detours the rear of Ligu Pass."
Han Mo pondered slightly, suddenly understood something, and said seriously: "Do you want the wind cavalry to surround the back of Ligu Pass, and then attack Ligu Pass from inside and open the level?"
"I think this is my idea." Zhu Xiaoyan's eyes flashed: "Eight hundred winds are on the battlefield, and they are not worth mentioning, and they will not even be taken seriously by the Ye and Wu coalition forces. If the eight hundred people's actions are hidden, they will not be discovered by the enemy. The Ye and Wu families are now looking at the huge aristocratic army. Perhaps he has never thought about the meaning of our existence."
"This is a stimulating but very risky action." Han Mo said slowly: "Once it is inserted into the rear, it will be a lonely army. If it is discovered by the enemy, we have no reinforcements at all. The eight hundred wind cavalry is not even enough for the tens of thousands of Ye Wu coalition forces."
"The situation of war is often affected by small details." Zhu Xiaoyan calmed down and seemed very confident: "On the battlefield, it is very common to seek victory in danger."
Han Mo sighed: "Xiao Zhu, I only realize now that you are full of desire for war. You like war. When you mention war, I find that you are very excited. You may not know that today is the one you talk most since you and I know each other."
Zhu Xiaoyan said without denying: "Men should gallop across the iron and blood. If one day I really want to die, I only hope to die on the battlefield, not in the quilt of a woman."
His originally cold expression showed a hint of excitement at this moment, which was a rare situation.
"How sure are you?" Han Mo thought for a while and asked softly.
"It depends on whether your aristocratic army cooperates." Zhu Xiaoyan returned to his cold look: "If we really insert it, the aristocratic army must attack Li Guchuan with all our might to attract the attention of the enemy. When we go around the back, we will cooperate inside and outside, and the chance should be great." After a pause, he said: "If what we plan is successful, not only can we break through Li Gu Pass, but most importantly, the wind cavalry will definitely learn a lot after such a training. As you said, this blade will be sharper!"
Han Mo smiled and said, "I hope I can really find that path, and I am looking forward to the success of this adventure."
"If it succeeds, the fifth young master may become famous." Zhu Xiaoyan's eyes flashed.
Han Mo smiled faintly, but he was very surprised in his heart. Zhu Xiaoyan seemed to hope that he would be famous, and this expectation could be seen in his eyes.
Does Zhu Xiaoyan really want to assist her? Or, what other thoughts does this kid have?
"When you set off, didn't you bring some tents?" Han Mo glanced at the gourd forest and saw that most of the wind cavalry were practicing with each other, discussing sword techniques. The atmosphere was very positive. However, in the entire gourd forest, there was no barracks except for nearly a thousand cavalry and horses wearing white windbreakers.
Zhu Xiaoyan shook his head and said, "No need. The armor on their bodies is enough to keep warm, not to mention that such cold cannot be fought against. How to fight against powerful enemies? The first thing to practice is to practice will."
Han Mo praised, "What you said makes sense." He paused and said, "I found the way and immediately report it to me."
...
Han Mo returned to the Han family army camp. When he entered the commando camp, all the generals had left. Only Han Xuanchang paced back and forth in the camp, frowned and wondered about something. When he saw Han Mo coming in, he immediately asked: "Have you found them?"
"Yes." Han Mo replied: "In the gourd forest."
"Why are you there?" Han Xuanchang frowned.
"Dad, I think they'd better be stationed there." Han Mo smiled and said, "When you arrive in Liguchuan, there may be many inconvenient places."
Han Xuanchang thought for a while and said, "That's your person, it's up to you to arrange it. But you have to remember that if you take any action, you must report to me and not act rashly."
"Yes." Han Mo frowned. It could be heard from Han Xuanchang's voice that not only Fengqi should not act rashly, but he was afraid that he would also think that he could not let the Korean family army act rashly.
Although this war is extremely important to both the enemy and us, as far as the coalition forces of the aristocratic families are concerned, no one is willing to lose their strength.
"Dad, the army has arrived. When will we attack Ligu Pass?" Han Mo looked at Han Xuanchang and asked softly.
Han Xuanchang returned to his seat and sat down, shook his head and said, "There is no decision yet." He frowned, pondered slightly, and then continued, "This will take a decision before the General of the Western Expedition will hold a military meeting."
"General of the Western Expedition?" Han Moqi said: "Who is General of the Western Expedition?"
Han Xuanchang said: "The four coalition forces in Li Guchuan cannot fight each other. The emperor has already appointed Xiao Huaijin as the general of the Western Expedition and the general to suppress the rebellion."
"Xiao Huaijin?" When Han Mo heard this name, he immediately thought of the military god Xiao Huaiyu. The two names were only one word different. Could it be that they were brothers?
Han Xuanchang saw Han Mo's thoughts and explained: "Xiao Huaijin is the eldest son of Taishi Xiao, and the eldest brother of Xiao Huaiyu, the general of Shenwu in the Northwest Camp."
Han Mo nodded and said calmly: "The people from the Xiao family are the head coach, so we all listen to him?"
Han Xuanchang sneered at the corner of his mouth and said disdainfully: "Although they are brothers, compared to Xiao Huaijin and Xiao Huaiyu, they are in the sky and the earth. Xiao Huaijin likes to fight cocks and dogs, and is a man of alcohol and sex. If Master Xiao had not promoted him hard, the emperor would not have asked him to be the general of the Western Expedition. It was just a banner. If he really wanted to make a decision, he would still have to discuss it together."
At this moment, the outside of the gate reported: "Master Han, General Han, the general of the Western Expedition sent someone to go to the camp to discuss matters, and is waiting!"
Han Xuanchang sneered: "Cao Cao Cao is here, Mo'er, come with me to the camp, I want to see how Xiao Huaijin is preparing to fight this battle."
