"Report!"
Muhama brought more than twenty riders with him.
After leaving the camp.
A soldier came to report to the eldest prince in a hurry: "Your Highness, General Muhama and his guards just broke out of the camp and went deep into the grassland. Should we chase them back?"
Inside the big tent.
Zarha's eyes turned cold when he heard this.
He was about to give the order to retrieve it, but then he thought of something and frowned.
He said coldly: "No, let him go."
A person who betrayed himself.
He didn't kill Muhama now because he was thinking of the friendship they had had for so many years.
If you want to go, just go.
Of course.
Not killing now is a matter of now.
After this matter is over and he returns to the royal court, he still will not let Muhama go.
To those who betrayed me.
He is not that generous.
"Humph!"
Thinking of this, Zarha snorted coldly.
The coldness in his eyes became even stronger: "I don't know who this Muhama belongs to. You'd better pray that this prince doesn't find out, otherwise, I will make you pay the price."
Muhama followed him.
It has been more than ten years.
He has always been loyal to him and has done everything flawlessly, which earned him his high regard.
If it weren’t for what Yelu Wan said today.
He was still kept in the dark and didn't know that Muhama had been advising him to avoid fighting.
Back again and again.
What is his intention?
He actually thought that Muhama was thinking about his safety.
Now that I think about it, I’m afraid it’s just as Yelu Wan said.
It is to get through this matter.
The barbarian men felt that they were cowardly and were frightened by Huo Qubing.
after that.
Then report the matter back to the royal court.
Thinking of this.
Zarha took a deep breath and said coldly: "Muhama, this prince will let you know what the price of betrayal will be."
______
The moon splashes across the starry sky.
On the white grassland.
"drive!"
Muhama was leading more than twenty riders under his command.
Rushing towards the nearest tribes.
Having participated in the battle that year, he knew well how terrible Huo Qubing and Yelu Wan, that reckless man, were.
There is no way they can be their opponent.
He knows it too.
After Yelu finished speaking, the eldest prince had already begun to doubt him.
What else can I say?
It was of no avail, and I was unable to persuade the eldest prince to stop.
Therefore.
Only then did he risk his life, rushing out of the camp with more than twenty cavalry guards and seeking help from several nearby tribes.
Dispatch soldiers to support the eldest prince.
“We must catch up.”
"drive!"
Muhama waved the whip in his hand, whipping the warhorse under him again and again.
'Sigh Lulu'
The horse neighed in pain.
Dazzling.
More than twenty riders disappeared on the vast grassland.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Huo Qubing in his tent.
A scout came in a hurry to report: "Report! General, there is a barbarian cavalry of about 5,000 horses coming ten miles away from our camp. They will arrive in about an hour."
Inside the tent, lights flickered.
Huo Qubing, who was reading a military book written by his master, heard this.
His eyes immediately fixed.
He stood up, opened the tent and strode out.
He confirmed with the scout who came to report: "Are you sure they are coming for us?" "Reporting, General."
The scout said respectfully, "They are coming for us."
Huo Qubing was confirmed by scouts.
He raised his eyebrows and said, "Interesting. This general has just decided to ignore this Zarha. When Min Shaoshan arrives tomorrow morning, he will go straight to the barbarian king's court. He is fine."
"You actually came here to seek death?" As he spoke, Huo Qubing's eyes turned cold and he said in a deep voice, "Come here, quickly call the generals in the army to come and discuss this matter."
A quarter of an hour later.
More than ten people headed by Zhao Ji.
When they arrived at Huo Qubing's tent, they all bowed and said, "Greetings, General."
Huo Qubing waved his hand.
He did not speak, but instead looked at a map on the table.
On this map.
The map detailedly marked various dangerous places, special terrains, water sources, etc. It took Heibingtai nearly five years to draw it. A captain led more than a thousand people to travel across most of the grassland.
It can be said to be detailed to the extreme.
"General."
Seeing Huo Qubing looking at the map without saying anything.
Zhao Ji came up, took a look at the map and asked, "What happened?"
Huo Qubing heard this.
He looked up at the crowd who were all in doubt.
He said in a deep voice: "Just now, the scouts reported that a group of elite barbarian cavalry, about 5,000 in number, is heading towards us. They are only about ten miles away from our camp."
"what?"
The generals in the tent heard this.
They all exclaimed in surprise.
Immediately, a hint of joy appeared on their faces: "Is there such a good thing?"
these days.
They chased the barbarian prince Zarha all the way, but they never caught up with him.
I'm feeling frustrated and have no place to vent.
Unexpectedly, a group of elite barbarian cavalry arrived.
talking.
All the generals gathered around and looked at the map on the table. On the map, Huo Qubing had estimated and marked the marching route of this barbarian cavalry.
"Five thousand cavalry."
Seeing the generals gathered around with excitement, Huo Qubing asked: "How do you think we should fight?"
A burly general with a fat face heard this.
He grinned and said, "General, they are just five thousand barbarian cavalry. With our strength, we can just charge at them head-on. We will surely defeat them in less than half an hour."
"Haha."
"Yes and that's right."
"Five thousand cavalrymen are nothing to worry about. Three thousand versus five thousand. The advantage is on my side."
The others also laughed at this time.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said, that the advantage was in his hands, with three thousand versus five thousand.
after all.
Who in the world doesn’t know this?
The cavalry of the northern border is the best in the world, and they are invincible unless they have an army several times their number.
"Zhao Ji, what do you think?"
Seeing the reckless spirit of the generals.
Huo Qubing shook his head and looked at his deputy general Zhao Ji.
But who would have thought.
Zhao Ji nodded in agreement: "General, I also think this is the way to go."
"You are a bunch of reckless men."
Upon hearing this, Huo Qubing laughed and cursed.
"Hehe." The generals were scolded and just grinned and laughed, without any refutation.
"This war cannot be fought this way."
Amid the laughter of the generals, Huo Qubing said solemnly: "Even if I have the advantage, I must not underestimate the opponent. Underestimating the enemy is a taboo on the battlefield."
Seeing Huo Qubing say this.
The generals also stopped laughing and looked solemn.
"Even though there are only 5,000 elite cavalry, there is nothing to be afraid of." Seeing that the generals were serious, Huo Qubing continued: "But if we choose to charge head-on, our army will suffer casualties. We must consider how to minimize the casualties."
Huo Qubing said.
Pointing to a location on the map, he said, "Look here. This place is low-lying and has slopes on both sides. It is the only way for the barbarian cavalry to pass. Although the slopes on both sides are gentle, it will not be easy for the horses to rush up in a short time."
"If we set an ambush here."
"When the barbarian cavalry arrives, we will hold up torches and shoot arrows at them. The barbarian cavalry will panic and suffer heavy losses. After the rain of arrows has passed, we will charge down and kill them."
"in this way."
“When it’s a no-brainer.”
