Chapter 0064 fierce battle (three)
By the time Zhang Yuan's long roar ended, the Khitans had already escaped, leaving him with black spots, and he had no interest in chasing him and returned to the team.
Afterwards, Zhang Yuan repeatedly attacked, suppressing the interference of the Khitans. When the day was about to dark, this team dominated by cattle and horses went forward for about 100 miles. It took four to five days to return to Xihe Town at such a speed. Zhang Yuan calculated it, but it did not exceed his planned budget.
Before the sun set, the Khitans fled far away. Xiao Shilu and Wanyan Wanting had personally experienced the ability of Zhang Yuan and his friends to fight at night, especially Wanyan Wanting, who had experienced it twice. Each time, Zhang Yuan defeated the enemy with less than ten or even hundreds of times the opponent's strength, killing tens of thousands of people, and suffered heavy losses.
As night fell, Zhang Yuan ordered: "Everyone gathered, stop and rest!"
After everyone gathered, Zhang Yuan said to Kong Qiuming: "Old Kong, bring a few soldiers with strength to remove all the Khitan sentry around him!"
"Here!" Kong Qiuming responded, and ordered a few soldiers who were good at short weapons, jumped onto the war horse and disappeared into the grassland.
When Kong Qiuming came back with a bloody smell, Zhang Yuan and his team had already started camping next to the cattle and horse herd to make fire and cook. Kong Qiuming reported: "Sir, the one-kilometer of the surrounding sentry has been cleared, and three people died from the outside sentry, and the rest of them all escaped, and there may be ambush. The subordinates did not chase him. Please atone for the sins!"
"Well done, be hungry, come and have a meal! There will be activities in the middle of the night tonight!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
Xiao Lu sat down while Zhang Yuan and heard Zhang Yuan's words, saying, "Master, did you attack those Khitans in the second half of the night? They were killed by us once, would they run far away from us? If that were the case, wouldn't we have to go for nothing? Why not have a good sleep and compete with whose archery skills tomorrow!"
Zhang Yuan glanced at Xiao Lu, but unexpectedly he was still not completely stubborn and knew how to use his brain. Zhang Yuan ate mutton and drank a little wine. The wine entered his stomach, and a heat current came out, and his whole body felt relieved.
The weather on the grassland is a changeable day. It is so hot during the day that it makes people tremble. Every heavy cavalry will carry a pot of wine, which is not only used to clean the wounds, but also to keep warm at night. Of course, military law stipulates that drinking too much or getting drunk is not allowed.
"Whether you can or not, we have to go!" Zhang Yuan looked at the Yue side. It was a dark grassland. The faint starlight could not allow him to discover the enemy hidden in nowhere.
"Why? We know that we are running for nothing, why are we going to run away?" Xiao Lu took a sip of wine in depressed voice. He had heard Ba Dinghan's words before and went to sleep depressedly. When he woke up, he remembered that the enemy could not let him attack at night. He suddenly shouted in his heart, "Damn it," and even more depressed, "Can you really be stuck like a plaster for those Khitan dogs?"
Zhang Yuan said: "Go, if we are there, we will naturally take advantage of the situation and attack once!"
Xiao Lu said, "Are they that stupid? If I were to run far away, I will send someone to disturb you when it dawns!"
Zhang Yuan said helplessly: "When the time comes, we will be involved. When their army comes back, we will destroy us all at once, right?"
"Uh!" Xiao Lu was stunned, touched the back of his head, and said with a silly smile: "I didn't think so much!"
"..." Zhang Yuan was speechless, 'Sure enough, he just moved slightly when he used his brain. He was really overestimating him!'
"This is the easiest but most practical method! But there is no solution at all. If you want to solve it, you need to know yourself and your enemy! Otherwise, you may not be able to solve it and give the other party the opportunity to attack and kill!" Zhang Yuan Haosheng analyzed, not only for Xiao Lu, but also for others. As long as you can listen to it, you will have some experience when you encounter such things in the future.
"Uh, can this be solved?" Xiao Lu said: "Those Khitan dogs are so annoying. If we chase him, we will run away. If we don't chase him, we will run back. If we chase him, we can't catch up, and if we can't kill him, we can't kill him. What else can we solve it?"
Zhang Yuan said with some amusement: "There is no solution in the world. Although their methods are a little bit obscene, there are still many solutions. It's just that their own differences and different ways of determining the problem!"
Xiao Lu jumped up and said happily: "Really, I've been depressed for a day today! I can finally get angry!"
Zhang Yuan said: "Think about it carefully, what are our advantages? You will know my method!"
"Ah!" Xiao Lu immediately said as soon as he heard this, "I hate you the most, I think about it. Master, please tell me!"
Zhang Yuan originally wanted to say it, but seeing Xiao Lu's appearance, he suddenly felt a little teasing and pretended to "reprimand": "I think about it myself, or ask others! If you have such a big head, don't move too much, it will sooner or later become muscles!"
Xiao Lu's face was bitter. He would rather use the mace in his hand to solve the problem than use his brain.
We chatted and rested for the middle of the night. Because there was no trace of fire in the entire camp, the Khitans were afraid to get close, but they just lit torches from afar, wanting to listen to the movement.
In the second half of the night, Zhang Yuan asked Ba Dinghan and others to wake everyone up. Zhang Yuan ordered Kong Qiuming and Ba Dinghan to bring fifty people each, without wearing armor, to clean the surroundings.
Zhang Yuan himself led his heavily armed heavy cavalry and rushed straight to the direction of the Northern Khitan tribe.
In addition, the remaining more than 30 people mixed in the cattle and horse herd to prevent the cattle and horse herd from being held back by the Khitans when they left.
The heavy cavalry, who had been raising energy, rushed for more than ten miles. On the grassland, the rushing sound was not covered, and the dull sound of horses trampling on the grassland could be heard across several miles.
As soon as they took action, they immediately attracted the attention of the Khitans.
Zhang Yuan and the others did not hide it, and rushed backwards. As Xiao Lu said, except for cleaning up the whistle, they naturally didn't catch anything.
More than ten kilometers later, Zhang Yuan did not take back Ba Dinghan and the others, and asked them to continue to follow the team and clean up the whistle.
Zhang Yuan himself took the cavalry and returned faster, then changed horses and did not replace people, and immediately drove the cattle and horse herd and set out towards Xihe Town.
At this time, after half a night of rest, the cattle and horse herd had recovered its strength. Under the stars, they ran in chaos and ran forward. They might even hear a vague vibration after more than ten kilometers.
Unfortunately, the Khitans were farther away and no longer could they hear them.
At this time, Xiao Lu was extremely depressed: "Master, didn't you say that you could solve the problem? But why do we still have to escape!"
Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes and said, "Of course it's not that simple, no matter if you have to wait for tomorrow!"
Chapter completed!
