97 March

starry night.

grassland.

The wind is cold.

The cavalry pulled into a long dragon and pointed directly into the depths of the grassland.

A cavalry with an arrow on his back ran back and shouted loudly: "Report to the commander! Ten miles ahead, there are ten Huns probing horses and ten horses!"

Chen Wushu tied the horse rope and his eyes were bright: "I understand."

Immediately, he quickly dealt with it: "Send the injured person to the rear army and give him a bunch of dried meat."

"It's the commander!"

A cavalry beside him held his fist and answered his order, turned over and dismounted, and helped his injured robe off the horse during his lifetime.

Then, the injured were sent to the tent behind with the help of the horsemen.

At this time, General Wei had already ordered to set up camps on the spot.

All the soldiers of the Western Expedition abandoned the rules of camping in the Central Plains and took out the tents that had been prepared long ago to support them.

It doesn't look like a migrating grassland tribe, but rather like a migrating grassland tribe.

There is no way, the grassland is lacking wood. If the army wants to fight against the Huns outside the Great Wall, they must take the initiative to adapt to the grassland environment.

What's more, this is not a battle against the offensive and defensive battle, but a battle of pursuit and annihilation.

Tents sewn with cloth are light, simple, and can provide sufficient temperature. They are the most suitable way to camp on the grassland. There is no need to set up large camps.

At this moment, the army had entered the grassland for seven or eight days, and everyone was adapting to the environment where they lived in tents.

In less than half an hour, the grassland was connected with a large tent.

A tent in the camp was like a spark that scattered on earth, igniting piles of lights on the ground, illuminating the busy figures of the soldiers.

The camp is divided into three armies in the front, middle and back.

There were three thousand soldiers in the front army, five thousand soldiers in the middle army, and two thousand soldiers in the rear army.

More than 30,000 civilians and servants all set up camps in the Central Army to protect food and fodder from being attacked.

After all, entering the grasslands to fight is a battle deep behind enemy lines.

The Western Expedition Army was in a situation where there were enemies on all sides and no reinforcements.

Food, food, drinking water, and meat are lifebloods.

The army was taken care of with the most important attitude and arranged to guard the Central Army, so that there was no need to be misunderstood.

Of course, the war has just begun, and there will be no shortage of food, grass and drinking water for the time being.

As long as you don’t lose food, don’t get trapped, and don’t miss the battle.

The grain and fodder reserved by the army was enough to support the army to use for more than three months and go to the complete battlefield.

However, food and meat are two different concepts. For ordinary soldiers, meat is very cherished.

Therefore, Chen Wushu had just used "dry meat" as a reward to reward the meritorious soldiers who rewarded the military.

The vanguard camp of Chen Wushu's successor belongs to the front army and is one of the two front-end troops.

Not only walking in front of the army, but also in front of the front army, was the first battalion of troops to confront the Huns.

Chen Wushu knew in his heart that General Wei deliberately put him in this position just to try his sword to see if he could kill the enemy and whether it could be of great use!

Fortunately, General Wei is a good person, so since he decided to give him a try, he did not deliberately make things difficult for him.

When arranging positions, he specially promoted the former pioneer lieutenant to serve as a general, and allowed his subordinates to be transferred to the position in the form of promotion.

When the general who was involved in the matter left, he was not only not dissatisfied with Chen Wushu, but also very enthusiastic about Chen Wushu, as if he owed him a favor, which made Chen Wushu a little embarrassed.

This method also made Chen Wushu's handover smoothly and he was not at all stingy. With his own official position alone, he directly suppressed his five hundred iron cavalry without having to perform a bloody trick of establishing his authority.

During these days when entering the grassland, the front army was also the only army that had confronted the Huns.

Unfortunately, several confrontations were limited to shooting and killing between horses. Not to mention looking for the main force of the Huns, even a small tribe had not met.

Obviously, the Huns knew the arrival of the Western Expedition Army, changed their previous arrogance and harassment, and chose to concentrate their strength and not give the Han army the opportunity to break through.

In this case, once the main forces of both sides really meet, it will be a shocking battle.

"Gululu."

In front of the tent of the Duwei camp.

A pile of torches was hanging from a clay pot that was burning.

Chen Wushu turned over and dismounted, and immediately a soldier scooped up hot water with a wooden bowl, held it high, and sent it to Chen Wushu: "Please drink water from the commander."

"Thank you."

Chen Wushu took the wooden bowl and took a sip of hot water. The air began to mist.

I just encountered the Huns' exploration of horses, and the subordinates of the village chief went to repay the generals of the front army.

As the first battalion lieutenant, the most important thing he did was to guard the battalion and be ready to dispatch battles at any time.

If you don’t even need to do something to spy on military information, how can you do something to send a message?

However, the Huns often visited horses a few days ago within a range of fifteen miles, and the number of people in the event was five cavalry.

Now the distance between the Huns' horses has been reduced to ten miles, and the number of people in a team has expanded to ten horses.

This means that the nearby Huns' strength is growing, and the distance between the Western Expedition army and the main force of the Huns is approaching.

Yes, it is not yet autumn, and the cattle and sheep of the Huns need to be grazed.

This means that a large amount of grassland and water sources are needed for the Hun tribe, and it also means that the Huns cannot retreat again and again.

They are likely to have completed a certain assembly and are on the verge of attack.

Chen Wushu put down the wooden bowl, thought for a moment, and passed an order to the personal soldiers beside him: "Transfer military orders, the number of people patrolling the camp tonight will double, and the number of teams will be more than one another."

"Yes, the captain!"

The personal soldier clasped his fists with both hands and immediately turned around to pass the order.

Chen Wushu saw his slim look and nodded slightly, but still couldn't remember this guy's name.

never mind.

Just remember that he is also a soldier.

Anyway, the number of personal soldiers of the first battalion was only five, so he didn't want to rely on personal soldiers to do anything.

Rather than saying that the five people are personal soldiers, they are more like passing soldiers.

It is much easier to use than those messengers who carry colorful flags and run back and forth.

However, the five personal soldiers were very enthusiastic about the new captain, and deliberately tried to perform, hoping to become his hardcore confidant.

well.

Their enthusiasm was used in the wrong place.

Chen Wushu couldn't even remember the names of the five people, and wouldn't take them to heart.

Unless these guys can survive until the end of the war or show their outstanding performance.

After passing the order down, the matter of patrol and horse exploration will naturally be arranged by the subordinate garrison commander.

The army was fighting outside, and everyone was nervous. General Guard was strict in governing the army, but he did not dare to neglect his duties.

Just as Chen Wushu was about to open the tent and enter the tent to rest, a general arrived with his own horse, tightened the reins and shouted: "The general sent an order to summon the commanders of each battalion to discuss matters!"

"If you are less than three quarters of an hour, behead!"

Chen Wushu put down the tent door, turned around again, and responded with his fists: "No!"

The cyclist looked at him with a look, turned around and drove away, and continued to rush to the camp downstairs.

"He is an old acquaintance." Chen Wushu recognized the cavalry and followed him to attack Juyong County. He smiled in his heart, untied the horse he had just tied up, and got on the horse and rushed to the commander's tent of the Central Army.

Since officially joining the Western Expedition Army, with the army leaving the pass, countless officials of Chen have not seen General Wei again.

After all, his official position was not high, so General Wei had no time to pay attention to him.

It is not the turn of the little captain to make a comment if he wants to discuss what military strategy he wants.
