Chapter 1501: Trialing the enemy for a hundred miles, Dangxiang's elite, from Helan

At this moment, in Wu Chaoyang's heart, he was constantly analyzing and judging the origin of this enemy army.

As a battalion-level cadre and Shen Mo's personal disciple, he had received reports of enemy situations from all the surrounding armed forces long before entering Lintao Road this time.

They all know the armed forces and weapons and equipment of the Jin Dynasty and the Western Xia, including combat effectiveness indicators.

According to the situation Shen Mo reported to them, there were 4,000 iron-arm crossbows made in Tongzhou in Xixia, which once played an important role in the battle against the Mongolian army in Xixia. Now these steel-arm crossbows are in the hands of the elite Western Xia army, the Helan Army.

So since someone used this steel-arm crossbow during the battle to attack Ma City this time, it means that the attacker was the Helan Army!

But Wu Chaoyang couldn't figure it out. Since these weapons were supported by his side to the Xixia people, why would the Xixia people turn around and use them to attack the forces on Shen Mo's side?

Could it be that the Western Xia troops privately concealed the private plundering activities carried out by their superiors? But they didn't rob anything? This is really puzzled!

...

When Wu Chaoyang pursued the enemy and thought, when he ran for about 40 minutes, he saw the tail of the enemy in front of him.

More than twenty minutes later, a row behind him followed with spare horses and bullets.

Wu Chaoyang's pursuit immediately turned into a man and a pair of horses, and they immediately began to speed up the pursuit!

This is really a match for the match. Both sides rode tall and strong Hequ war horses. In this Gobi Desert, there was a familiar environment in which war horses grew up and grew up, so the war horses on both sides immediately chased happily on the wilderness.

Two hours passed in a flash, and they had already run for more than a hundred miles, one in front and one in the back.

At this time, Wu Chaoyang and his more than 200 people had already crossed the Jingyuan City of Xixia, and along the east bank of the Yellow River flowing north, they went deep into the hinterland of Xixia.

After he led his troops to pursue and ran for two hours, Wu Chaoyang looked at the cavalry team ahead that was about 500 people, which were silenced by 6 or 7 miles away. He sneered in secret.

Within these two hours, Wu Chaoyang had figured out the intention of this small army to attack Ma City!

...

It turned out that they were fishing. The 500 people in front were a bait, and the ones they were fishing for was his guard camp!

Wu Chaoyang came to this conclusion just now, when he began to pursue the Xixia army in front of him across the border. He had already made his cavalry three unaware speed adjustments without knowing it.

The first time, of course, was when he was chasing the enemy in front of him like a prairie fire. Within more than half an hour, he had bitten the other party's tail.

The second time was when his row followed up, and all the combatants took over their teams, and each soldier took back their spare horses. In this process, their speed was inevitably affected.

Because in the cavalry camp of the Chengdu Army, each soldier has one man and two horses. Moreover, these two horses are carefully raised and familiar to the cavalry soldier himself, and the men and horses cooperate very skillfully during the battle.

So when the air horses catch up from behind, every soldier will still look for another war horse in the running herd of horses. This will also cause a little chaos, and the speed will naturally not be faster in this process.

However, Wu Chaoyang was keenly aware that when his team's speed dropped slightly, the opponent's pursuers did not take the opportunity to run further away!

Then, the third acceleration began after Wu Chaoyang's soldiers changed into war horses.

The war horses that were replaced this time were a group of new forces, so their running speed naturally increased rapidly.

Wu Chaoyang judged based on the hoof prints on the ground that each of the 500 people on the other side brought about 500 horses. They did not have spare war horses to replace them.

However, when he accelerated his pursuit, the other party also forced himself to accelerate, but refused to escape or change direction, but remained five or six miles away in front of him!

This shows that the other party has spared no effort and just wants to keep a constant distance from him - that is to say, the other party is deliberately waiting for them in a close and distant manner!

If you run at this speed, the opponent's war horse will definitely not be able to maintain this speed for too long. So the previous several conditions add up, and the conclusion is very obvious:

Not only did the other party set a trap for him, but the trap was not far ahead!

At this moment, Wu Chaoyang smiled coldly. He looked at the smoke and dust rolled up in front of him and thought to himself: "I want to set up a trap to destroy my army and seize our rifles? Humph! You might as well try the bullets first!"

...

At this time, Wu Chaoyang was no longer the big-headed soldier who was training side by side with Shen Mo on Chongming Island. This young man was calm and smart, and under Shen Mo's oral teaching, his horizons became extremely broad.

The most obvious improvement of their twelve fire thieves after receiving Shen Mo's training was that they all became extremely accurate when speculating on the enemy's intentions!

Now seeing the other party opening his trap and waiting for them to arrive, Wu Chaoyang rushed in without hesitation!

...

They marched forward again for about 20 minutes, and saw a hilly area opposite.

The loess here are high mountains, deep valleys and ravines, and the terrain is evidently very complex.

"It seems that this is here!" Wu Chaoyang smiled, and then shouted the company commander behind him...

When their team chased the enemy and continued to move forward, Wu Chaoyang led the team to lead the troops without hesitation.

Then, just after they rushed into the narrow valley, Wu Chaoyang rode his horse forward, and saw that the sneak attacking force in front was getting slower and slower.

After watching them chasing into the valley about two miles away, the road ahead began to gradually narrow, and the mountains on both sides began to become steep... When Wu Chaoyang saw the hillsides on both sides, he immediately smiled coldly!

Then he ordered without hesitation, and his entire army stopped!

In an instant, more than a thousand war horses gradually stopped in this narrow valley and stood there.
Chapter completed!
