Chapter 86: Guard carefully

The so-called surprise attack is a surprise! At noon the next day, the sun rose above his head, and Yue Chen stood on the top of Nanshan Mountain, looking down at the great mountains and rivers of Anguo.
The northeast side of Nanshan Mountain is a cliff, but the other side is very flat, which is a natural barrier.
At Yue Chen's feet, there were more than a dozen corpses lying in all directions.
These corpses were very young, with shock and unwillingness on their faces when they were about to die.
These are the secret whistles arranged on the cliff at Nanshan Pass, which were easily pulled out by Yue Chen and others.
Soon, the heavy snow will drown the body, and there will be traces of Yue Chen and the others.
"Report..." The scout rushed over and knelt in front of Yue Chen.
"speak!"
Yue Chen shouted.
"Your Majesty, Xu Changhong's army is still fifty kilometers away from us. It is estimated that they will be camped in Crow Mountain."
The scout reports.
"Crow Mountain, twenty kilometers away from here!"
Mu Guiying stepped forward and said, "The soldiers have been on the road for a day and a night, and they are very tired."
Yue Chen nodded slowly and said: "All rest in place, drinking and eating dried meat.
Remember, the Nanshan Pass cannot be found out, and those who violate the order should be cut. "
The generals, go down and arrange the army.
So the group of people started to rest just above the head of Nanshan Pass.
Scouts were sent out to monitor every move of Nanshan Pass and guard against local scouts.
It's getting colder and colder.
The soldiers were wrapped in cloaks made of monster skins and drank strong wine for warmth. The whole scene was silent and no one dared to speak easily.
After eating and drinking, the soldiers lay in the snow to sleep.
This journey is very hard.
Until the darkness fell, the soldiers who had not rested enough were quietly awakened by the master.
It was colder at night, and the soldiers faced the wind and snow, and continued to rush on the road quickly.
Twenty miles away, must arrive in the middle of the night.
Crow Mountain... Xu Changhong looked at the endless barracks and let out a long mouthful of heating.
In the barracks, cooking smoke rose, and the smell of meat spread.
"I have meat tonight."
Xu Changhong smiled and looked into the distance.
Xu Changshi smiled and said, "Marshal, it's fifteen today, and the boys can eat meat once.
Only after eating meat can I have the strength to go to the battlefield. "
"Go, walk with me!"
Xu Changhong wrapped the cloak around him and stepped out of the military tent.
Along the way, countless young soldiers greeted Xu Changhong, and Xu Changhong responded with a smile.
Some of these young soldiers have only been with him for a few months.
There are also some older soldiers who have been with him for many years.
Even Xu Changhong was able to call out the names of some veterans and slapped them on the shoulders.
Along the way, morale has improved a lot.
"It's hard to be a soldier!"
On the way back, Xu Changhong said to his cousin Xu Changshi, "Folders, you have to remember that soldiers are the swords in our hands, and it is them that we can make contributions.
So in the future, if you take the lead alone, try your best to let them survive.
These are all lives. Behind a person is a family. Over the years, I have seen too many broken families.
The old white-haired father couldn't wait for his son, but his weak wife and children fell into a nightmare ever since. "
Xu Changshi whispered from the side: "Brother, but you have said before that Mercy does not control soldiers..." "Yes, Mercy does not control soldiers!"
Xu Changhong smiled faintly, countless complex emotions appeared in his eyes, looked at the sky in the distance, and said softly, "That's because the benevolence of a woman will make more people die."
Once on the battlefield, you can only treat the soldiers as pieces of chess. In order to win, in order to make more chess pieces survive, we must ruthlessly let some of the chess pieces sacrifice... and once on the battlefield... you must Abandon all feelings.
To the enemy, you must be cruel and ruthless, without the slightest feminine kindness.
The kindness to the enemy is the cruelty to the subordinates...you...get it right. "
"Yes, brother!"
Xu Changshi bowed far away.
Standing in place, Xu Changhong looked at the direction of Nanshan Pass, and whispered softly: "The pigeons and cavalry at Nanshan Pass, but in time?"
Xu Changshi said: "There have been a few delays before. It should be. Now it is cold and the pigeon has encountered natural enemies such as eagles.
However, in just a few hours, homing pigeons arrived on time, and Nanshan Pass was still normal, and the enemy had not been seen. "
"Ah That's good!"
Xu Changhong said.
Xu Changshi whispered: "Brother, then Yue Chen, will you really come to Nanshan Pass?
Going deep alone is a taboo for marching.
Once Yue Chen's lone army goes deep, there will be no way to supply the food and grass behind him.
Although our city forces are not many, they are enough to cut off his food line. "
Xu Changshi always felt that his cousin, a famous general, was cautiously excessive.
"I know!"
Xu Changhong said, "According to normal principles, it is impossible for Yue Chen to appear at Nanshan Pass.
But I have always been cautious in marching, and it is always right to be cautious.
Well, arrange regular patrols at night, don't be careless just because you are in your own country.
There is no shortage of bonfires. "
"Yes!"
Although there was some disapproval in his heart, Xu Changhong responded respectfully and did not dare to violate it.
After Xu Changhong left, Xu Changshi squatted his mouth, a little disdainfully said: "Where are there any enemies in my Anguo territory."
Muttering in his mouth, Xu Changshi still gave orders to the chief generals: "Patrol and guard according to wartime standards."
"General, this is in Anguo, is it necessary to be so careful?"
A general murmured dissatisfiedly.
"Stop talking nonsense, slacker, cut!"
Xu Changshi shouted.
In Qingguo, Yu Wenqing looked at the flying pigeon biography that he had just received, which briefly described Yue Chen's military actions.
"Is Yue Chen crazy?"
Yu Wenqing murmured subconsciously.
"This guy, instead of guarding Changzhou City and Tianchi City, he took the initiative to attack Dongping City. He wants to put the battlefield in Anguo?"
Beside Yu Wenqing, an old man with sharp eyes like eagles and a majestic face slowly spoke out.
This is one of the commanders of the four conquering troops of Qing Dynasty: Gu Chengwu.
Gu Chengwu shook his head, looking at Yu Wenqing, his old face was full of doubts, and said: "He was originally a Red Rock City, but now he has added three cities, and only four cities. He really dared to fight three countries. What do you think?"
Yu Wenqing shrugged and said: "Who knows what to think, he may be a lunatic.
Otherwise, how dare to declare war with us, and how dare to take the initiative to attack Anguo when war is going on.
Didn't he know that the soldiers and food needed for an expedition can consume much more than defending the city... It is impossible to guess. "
"Then you said, what will he do when he takes the Dongping Pass and continue to go deeper?
Attack the city? "
Gu Chengwu raised two questions in a row.
"Deep? Looking for death?"
Yu Wenqing shook his head and said, "At most, I still stick to Dongping Pass.
Although Dongping Pass is easier to defend than Hongyan City, it will completely anger Anguo.
An Hongyi is young and vigorous, and if Yue Chen slaps him on the face, he will definitely go crazy. "
