Lu Gui said solemnly: "I was afraid that I would not be able to make it in time, so when I received the news yesterday morning, I immediately set off with the cavalry, followed by the infantry. I didn't even bring the army food and baggage. The soldiers all took the dry food and set off on the road.
, now I have three thousand cavalry beside me, resting and waiting in the northwest of the village a mile away. Everyone has been running for a day and a night, and there is no time to drink water. "
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "Just don't drink the water. Please note that the wells in the nearby villages are poisoned, so you must not drink it."
Lu Gui's expression changed: "It's still happening. Fortunately, I didn't order to stop and look for water. There is no big river nearby. It's not enough for my three thousand brothers to rely only on well water. Then please ask Brother Dao Gui to allocate us."
Some drinking water for us to drink."
Liu Daogui nodded: "I will send someone to send the water tanker there. Your brothers will set off after an hour's rest. They only need three thousand cavalry, because the enemy has fled to Wulindu. Next, we are going to attack Wulindu.
Launch a general attack."
Lu Gui's eyes widened: "Is there going to be a general attack? How can we just sit back and watch? Brother Daogui, these brothers of mine are all Yongzhou cavalry who have been trained for many years. They are very energetic. Even if they have to march day and night, it is commonplace. They won't
Affects combat effectiveness."
Liu Daogui smiled and waved his hand: "Xiang Tooth, I know you are eager to fight and want to make meritorious deeds, but as a soldier, you must learn the art of war. When Huan Xuan and Yin Zhongkan fought against Yang Quanqi, Yang Quanqi also brought eight thousand soldiers with him.
The soldiers from Yongzhou came from afar and marched for two days and one night to reach Jiangling. They went to fight before the water and rice had entered, but they were defeated in one battle and even lost their lives. This happened more than ten years ago, and Yin Jian is not far away."
Lu Gui gritted his teeth: "But Marshal, your legion also fought hard all day and night, and also tracked and pursued for nearly two days. It was just harder than us. Normally, it should be rested."
Liu Daogui said calmly: "In the past two days of our pursuit, we have actually slowed down and rested while pursuing. The wounded and sick were sent to the rear, and only those who could march quickly were left behind. We marched slowly at a speed of fifty miles a day.
, it is different to divide the troops into camps, eat and drink well, and march in a hurry for a day and night, and the cavalry rushes to the battlefield. Even if the people can hold on, the horse power is not enough. You are a cavalry general, so you should know this."
Lu Gui sighed: "It's a pity that in order to get more cavalry, I didn't have one person and two horses. Otherwise, if there were auxiliary horses to change horses and rest, this problem wouldn't exist. It's just that this decisive battle, if I were to
Just stare at me, even if I agree, the soldiers will still complain. Brother Daogui, please think twice about this."
Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "Don't worry, it's not that I won't give you a chance to fight, but I'm telling you to rest for an hour first, eat, or even take a nap, and drink enough water. Only when you eat and drink enough can you have fighting strength.
The enemy has 20,000 troops. This battle cannot be fought in an hour. At the critical moment, if your magic troops descend from the sky, wouldn't it make the entire enemy army collapse?"
Tan Daoji also laughed and said: "Brother Xiangfan, this time our Handong battle was also the first half of the day when the rear army was on standby, but the most intense battle started in the afternoon. At that time, I
All my subordinates are just like you now, complaining about having nothing to fight, aren’t they, Lingxiu?”
Zhu Lingxiu laughed loudly: "That's right, I was so idle in the morning that my balls ached, and in the afternoon I was so tired that I couldn't even drink water, and almost died. Xiangtuo, don't worry, your three thousand cavalry will definitely be useful.
From the land of martial arts.”
Lu Gui grinned: "It's good if Brother Daogui remembers us. If the war breaks out soon, call us at any time. I'm going to let the troops rest for a while. You can help me with some guides and scouts who are familiar with the terrain.
, take me to scout the battlefield in advance. The soldiers can rest. As a general, I still have to think about how to fight."
Liu Daogui nodded and said to Zhu Lingxiu: "Brother Lingxiu, take Brother Xiangto to Wulindu for reconnaissance. The main purpose is to see the situation in the north, especially the enemy's position on the north, which is five miles away from the ferry.
You need to know the situation inside carefully and be careful on the road, there may be an ambush from demon thieves."
Zhu Lingxiu and Lu Gui looked at each other and smiled: "Okay, let's go right away. I will also take my brothers and go there to prepare for cooperation, okay?"
Liu Daogui smiled and patted Zhu Lingxiu on the shoulder: "Then you have to send water and food to the Yongzhou brothers, and then listen to my orders and act together."
When Zhu Lingxiu and Lu Gui bowed and retreated, mounted their war horses, and galloped away chatting and laughing, Tan Zhi sighed: "These soldiers and horses from Yongzhou came at the right time. Dangyang arrived here eight hundred miles away in one day."
We can arrive there in one night, and if we go into battle without rest, people will die."
Tan Daoji said coldly: "As a soldier, the urge to make contributions is unstoppable. It's just that I'm curious how they know the news here. You know, even in Jiangling, we sent people to deliver the message.
Only after the wounded soldiers did we know the situation of the battle. The reinforcements from Jiangling have not arrived yet. From Dangyang, it would have been half a day late for us to send the message. This time, it was at least a day later than Jiangling, but it came so quickly.
"
Liu Daogui said calmly: "There is a big battle here. Lu Gui and the others have been paying close attention to the situation in the Ma Tou area in Dangyang. I also informed them when I attacked. Moreover, Lu Gui is leading cavalry. It is normal to be fast, so there is no need to
You are thinking wildly and saying such disunified words."
Tan Daoji gritted his teeth: "Brother Daogui, it's not that I'm not united, it's just that Lu Zongzhi is unreliable. He suddenly left at the critical moment before the war, but now he comes back after the war, for fear of being left behind. Isn't this a bit of a cover-up?
?”
Zhu Chaoshi waved his hand: "Brother Daoji, I think you don't need to think too much about this. It's true that Lu Zongzhi and others want to separate Yongzhou, but after all, we can give him his conditions and others can't, even if Tianshi Dao can do it.
In the world, can we let him continue to be the lord of Yongzhou? Over the past year, he has helped us a lot, and it is impossible to side with the enemy this time."
Tan Daoji curled up his lips: "I didn't say they were enemies, but I think they were probably sitting on the mountain watching the tigers fight. Brother Daogui informed them when he left Jiangling. Day and night, even you rushed to the battlefield.
But it was three days later that they said they were coming on horseback. Do you believe Mr. Lu only got the news yesterday?"
Having said this, Tan Daoji took a deep breath: "They are just sitting on the mountain watching the fight between tigers and only appear after deciding the outcome. I will not regard such people as true brothers."
