Turbulent Times Chapter 286: Wu San’s strategy
"Once the war starts, the Tuyuhun horses will run three hundred miles a day, and within three days, the news that we have come to Golmud will spread to all the tribes of Tuyuhun, although King Bailan took most of the Tuyuhun warriors to Xiping County, but with all the tribes of Tuyuhun joining forces, our troops are far from enough for a head-on battle."
Jiang Muling said with a smile: "This is the worst case. The general said that before doing anything, we can make the best plan and start from the worst. Pass down the order, the whole army will enter the valley and set up camp, and the rangers will replace themselves with Tuyuhun Clothes, explore the land up and down hundreds of miles! What do you think?"
"No problem?"
Su Changqing and Li Xiang nodded in agreement, and soon the scouts dressed as Tuyuhun people galloped away in all directions, while the army camped in place.
Wu San was riding a **** horse, with a big flag with a skull painted on it behind him. Behind them were two thousand horse thieves in black armor with an indifferent face and a silent expression.
Watching Su Changqing's entire army retreat into the valley, Wu San ordered: "We also need to find a safe place to camp, which is about ten miles behind them on the left, and the field of vision must be wide."
Little Shizi smiled and said: "Master, you said that the Tuyuhun people have always lived by the water. There will always be Tuyuhun shepherds by the river under our feet. Why don't we find a small Tuyuhun tribe and kill them all?" How about grazing instead of them? This is the best way to hide."
When Wu San heard this, his eyes lit up, and he smiled and said: "Yes, your idea is very good. I think even if the general is here, I'm afraid he will praise you."
Little Shizi smiled and touched the back of his head, with a simple and honest look.
Wu San smiled, called the leaders over, and told Xiao Shizi what he thought. The leaders all applauded, and the order was passed on. The cavalry and skeleton army should be more fully prepared.
Not long after, Wu San whistled and rushed down the small river at the root of the mountain on the left. As the scout leader of the Skeleton Army, Xiao Shizi led a team of scouts to accelerate past the brigade and set out to explore the way.
Xiaoshizi's war horse crossed the river, and there was a pine forest next to it, and on the left side of the pine forest, there was a large pasture. In the dry grass, there were dung from cattle and sheep. Xiaoshizi jumped off the horse and squeezed the cow dung, cow dung It didn't take long, which meant that there were shepherds nearby.
Little Shizi led the people to continue searching along the traces left by the cattle and sheep. After walking two miles forward, he saw huge cowhide tents one after another. A rough count, more than one hundred.
This is a small tribe of Tuyuhun, which just meets the target requirements of the skeleton army.
A white cloud was blown from the back of the mountain by the wind. After the white cloud passed the treetops, it turned black.
"Go back and tell the boss that the fat sheep has been found." Thin snowflakes fell from the sky, and the little stone stretched out his tongue to lick the raindrops on his lips, and pointed at the more than one hundred tents in the distance. Smiley face...
Half an hour later, more than a thousand people, men, women, children, and children from this small tribe who did not know their names were all killed, and their bodies were buried in a big pit by Wu San and his men.
Xiaoshizi, as the first batch of the best special scouts trained by Wang Junlin in Gaotai City, led his men to cover up and decorate carefully with a shovel, and finally shoveled some turf and carefully covered the pit with The feet stepped on some of the joints carefully, and there was no trace at all unless you looked carefully.
After finishing all this, Xiao Shizi scratched his chin and said apologetically to the ground: "The army raided and left no survivors along the way. Our Skeleton Army can't help it. Don't blame us. Besides, you Tuyuhun people are in Xiping. When the counties meet with the villages and towns, they will not stay behind."
Every household in this tribe has a mastiff, which is extremely vicious. At this time, the living dogs are still barking loudly.
Wu San gave the two fat mastiffs at the door of the tribal chief's tent a cold look.
Wu San drew his knife, and with two puffs, the two mastiffs collapsed on the ground, and said to the left and right: "Kill all the dogs, everyone will eat dog meat tonight!"
…
…
Su Changqing, Jiang Mulang, and Li Xiang's surprise attack must have been like a tornado along the way, and no one would stay behind. This was the strategy they had formulated when they were on the road.
Military strikes may not necessarily cause serious trauma to the Tuyuhun people. Only by attacking the roots of the Tuyuhun people can the Tuyuhun people be truly hit.
The Tuyuhun people boasted that they were born naturally from the wasteland. In fact, they were raised by their fathers and mothers just like everyone else. The reason is that they grew up in a difficult living environment. As long as they can live and grow up, they are all warriors with strong will.
In the middle of December in the lunar calendar, Golmud, two thousand miles west of Xihai County, is already the coldest time of the year, and there are no shepherds, cattle and sheep grazing on the grassland.
Several steeds galloped towards them, disturbing the pheasants and hares that were foraging in the withered grass. They either flew or jumped around, and fled to the depths of the grassland quickly.
A scout from the Sui army in Gaotai City reined in his horse on a hillside, took a closer look at the tribe below the hillside, smiled coldly, and said to the scout next to him: "A medium-sized tribe, about two thousand tents, you bring Go back and report to lead the way alone."
The scout promised to turn his horse's head and gallop away. The remaining three scouts jumped off the horse and led the horse to the back of the hillside, hiding themselves.
Two people took off their armor, and the other climbed up on the hillside to be on guard. This was the most basic tactical assignment of scouts in Gaotai City trained by Wang Junlin himself.
They had only rested for a stick of incense when a black line slowly appeared on the wasteland from a distant mountain depression.
The hillside is located in the south of the foothills, with plenty of sunlight, and there are half-protruded mountain depressions on the left and right, which can block the cold wind in winter, and the thick camel and cow felt are enough for the herdsmen to resist the winter. severe cold.
For a long time, for nomads, winter has always been the time of least vigilance, let alone where the old nest of Tuyuhun is. For many years, only they have robbed the Han people. No one has ever robbed them. Although the natural environment is difficult It was harsh, but the relatively peaceful life made them less vigilant, and they didn't even send any warning sentries.
So, it wasn't until the three thousand cavalry from Gaotai City came lixu away that they were startled by the thunderous sound of horseshoes.
