Prince of Chaos

Chapter 137 Encounter

Thanks to Xie Wenyu for the monthly ticket support!

Thank you handsome pot!
The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, the long river is setting the sun!
The scene in front of me is just like the one described by Wang Wei, a poet of the Tang Dynasty.

On the endless grassland, the sky is high and the earth is far away, with white clouds floating around.

In the evening, there was no wind on the grassland, and the smoke from a bonfire somewhere could be seen floating straight into the sky from a distance, just like Monkey King's golden cudgel.

"The Yellow River is ahead, and we are not far from Pinglu City."

Qi Jin looked at the map and compared the situation here, and he confirmed that this place is very close to the place agreed with Li Tiansheng.

Walking through the wind and sand all the way, he was extremely lucky, not even encountering a harassing grassland tribe.

Only scattered nomadic herdsmen were hit by Qi Jin and the others.

However, Qi Jin and the others did not embarrass these poor herders. Instead, they exchanged some grain for some cattle and sheep to improve the lives of the soldiers.

According to Wu Weizhong's words, it's not easy for everyone, they are all poor people who are living a hard life and begging for a living, and no one is an absolute death feud with anyone.Meeting some poor civilians and helping them can be regarded as accumulating some virtue for themselves.

These behaviors were also seen by the [-] law enforcement officers led by Zhao Desong.They really didn't expect that the Southern Army, which made people fearful in Jizhou Town, would have a benevolent general.

In fact, this is not Wu Weizhong's kindness. The reason why Wu Weizhong didn't kill these scattered herdsmen is to avoid unnecessary complications.

At the same time, he also needs these herdsmen as guides to help him point out the way ahead.

Therefore, sometimes kindness is still necessary.

Moreover, these wandering herdsmen do not migrate with the tribe, which in itself shows that they yearn for stability and peace, and do not want to be exploited anymore. Therefore, Wu Weizhong will naturally not be a ruthless butcher, letting the grassland know that there is a savage The killing team came beyond the Great Wall.

If the southern army were cavalry, then they would be killed naturally.

It's a pity that the Southern Army is not a cavalry soldier. It's really hot and red-eyed. It has committed the anger of the grasslands. When the time comes, you can't run if you want to, and you can only wait for death.

"How is the situation now?"

Wu Weizhong came to Qi Jin and asked, he had to check the progress of the army all the time.

Qi Jin said: "Don't worry, Angkor, our Southern Army is walking close to the Great Wall, who would be so blind to trouble us? Could it be that they want to anger the defenders in the Great Wall?"

Wu Weizhong said: "It's good that it's okay. Although we received the military order to snipe the reinforcements of the rebels, our first task is to reach Niutougou first. After arriving in Niutougou, we will talk about other things."

Qi Jin said with a smile: "Angkor is still stable."

Hearing Qi Jin's laughter, Wu Weizhong glared at Qi Jin: "Your skin is itchy. How dare you make fun of me?"

Qi Jin said: "How dare you? We have come here unscathed because of the wise leadership of Angkor. The brothers all admire Angkor from the bottom of their hearts."

Wu Weizhong snorted and said, "Don't think I don't know, you must have teased me in private for being timid and not daring to go deep into the grasslands to fight the Mongols."

Qi Jin chuckled and didn't dare to answer.

After walking for almost a month, the teammates of 3000 people complained and joked a little bit, which is normal, after all, everyone is a soldier, and it turned out that they didn’t let go of a single shot after coming out for a month, and it was really itchy.

Wu Weizhong said: "After we reach the border of Pinglu, there will be no peace. There will definitely be enemies appearing anytime and anywhere. At that time, we will not be able to fight. Don't be in the midst of blessings and not know your blessings."

Qi Jin said: "What Angkor taught me is that."

While the two were joking and chatting with each other, Zhao Desong said from the side: "Look, look, is there a sandstorm blowing over there?"

Wu Weizhong and the others looked in the direction Zhao Desong was pointing at, and when they raised their eyes, their faces suddenly became serious.

This is not a sandstorm, this is obviously a group of cavalry horses coming towards this side.

Seeing this situation, Wu Weizhong immediately gave an order, "Stop! The whole army's vehicles line up and prepare to meet the enemy!"

After receiving Wu Weizhong's order, the three thousand Southern Army quickly started to move. The soldiers of the Southern Army quickly assembled the grain carts they were carrying, and then surrounded them to form a big circle, and then waited for this wave of unknown waves. The cavalry arrived.

Qi Jin looked at the torrent of cavalry that was getting closer and closer, he was startled, and he said to himself: "I'm such a crow's mouth, I'll come here no matter what I say."

An army like the Southern Army was most afraid of being attacked by grassland cavalry. Although they had powerful firearms, they would not be able to handle the desperate cavalry charge.

Qi Jin commanded the crowd, "Hurry up, hurry up! We are almost behind the chariot formation, the cavalry can't resist!"

For a while, the entire southern army was in a hurry.What they were worried about finally happened, and they were still attacked by cavalry on the grassland.

Hu Huaide looked at the cavalrymen who were getting closer, he gave a sound, and then stared fiercely ahead.

"Come on, come on, who is the Southern Army afraid of? You are the ones who did it!"

Wu Weizhong was in charge of the central army. He issued general orders in an orderly manner and organized the defense of the southern army. At the same time, he paid close attention to the movements of the cavalry ahead.

"Have you seen who the other party is?"

Wu Weizhong asked Qi Jin, and Qi Jin replied solemnly to Wu Weizhong: "Shuai Wu, I see clearly, the prairie cavalry who came were flying a gray rabbit flag, and they should be from the rebellious force rabbits."

Wu Weizhong's face changed when he heard Zhulitubu. This tribe is not a small tribe. According to the information of the Ministry of War, Zhulitubu is one of the more powerful grassland tribes in the Hetao area. It has two thousand cavalry and is good at cavalry. Bursting, and their bow and arrow range is no worse than that of firearms, it is quite a tough opponent.

Wu Weizhong said: "About how many people are there?"

Qi Jin said: "Judging from the dust in front, at least no less than a thousand riders."

Wu Weizhong was silent, a thousand riders is not a small amount.Since ancient times, cavalry has been unable to fall well against infantry, especially on flat grasslands, which is even more difficult.

Moreover, the Southern Army now has 3000 men, but these 3000 men only use less than [-] horses, and most of them are mules for hauling rations.There is no way to prevent the cavalry from recoiling, so they can only hold on with the strength of chariots and firearms!

Wu Weizhong said: "Since the day we left the fortress, we can expect such an encounter. However, we should not panic, because God has been kind to our southern army. When we meet them, as long as we can resist their attacks, they will have no way to eat us. And behind us is the Great Wall, and reinforcements may appear at any time, so our first task now is to defend the car formation and stand ready! "

Qi Jin, Hu Huaide, Li Wuyi, and Zhao Desong said in unison: "Yes, I will follow Wu Shuai's orders."

Then, Wu Weizhong said: "Go, let's meet the enemy! Let the Mongolian sheep herders like the grassland who can only herd sheep see the demeanor of our Southern Army!"
