828 Siege!(1/2)

The cavalry refused in their hearts, but their mounts all wanted to follow the Black Wind King.

Horses are very sensitive animals, otherwise they would not be vigilant to sleep while standing and sleeping all year round. Changes in the environment have a great impact on horses.

Fortunately, they are not ordinary horses, but the strongest and brave Black Wind Cavalry among the six kingdoms.

They have received the most stringent obstacle training in the military camp, and this width is not difficult for them, and they can basically cross it after running.

But some ponies who have just turned three have not trained enough to adapt well to this complex environment.

The few ponies who were transporting food and grass at the end of the line hesitated. Under the repeated instructions of the horse trainer, a pony finally raised its hooves and leaped.

However, it lacked confidence and was not able to exert force simply. Only the front hoof fell on the opposite side, and the rear hoof suddenly stepped on the air.

It panics!

The Black Wind King broke back, jumped into the ditch, and pushed the pony down with his head.

The little Black Wind Knights behind seemed to have a support and mustered up the courage to jump. The Black Wind King just stood in the ditch and sent them one by one.

After all the little Black Wind Riders crossed the ditches, the Black Wind King came up from the ditches full of mud and thorns.

Its legs were scratched by thorns several times. Gu Jiao treated it with the wound and continued on the way.

The order of the three major camps was the Pioneer Battalion, the Charge Battalion and the Reserve Battalion. Wenren Chong was the Reserve Battalion, and he rode his horse and walked behind the team.

While walking, he used charcoal to record the landforms and routes in the forest.

"Hey, give some water."

Zhao Dengfeng rode to him on a horse and stretched out his hand at him.

"No." Wen Ren said without raising his head.

"You guy!" Zhao Dengfeng glared at him, then turned to look at the cavalry on the other side, "Li Shen..."

Li Shen ignored him and rode his horse to the front.

Zhao Dengfeng gritted his teeth: "Aren't you two all soldiers? You still ignore people?"

When Gu Jiao initially wanted to reuse the three people, the three of them either were not in the military camp or did not return to the military camp. Now, it's better, they are back, starting with small soldiers.

Gu Jiao took the lead in leading the way.

Master Hu and Mu Qingchen followed her in the scorching sun.

Gu Jiao suddenly stopped and looked around.

Mu Qingchen asked, "What are you looking for?"

"The stream." Gu Jiao said, "There should be a stream nearby. You can swim upstream along the stream and cross the mountains."

After a pause, she said, "Go and catch a deer, and live, don't hurt it."

It is not difficult to catch a deer, but it is not easy to not hurt at all.

Mu Qingchen fell so badly that he finally tied up a deer back.

Gu Jiao licked the deer for a while and then put it on.

Gu Jiao patted the black wind king's neck: "Boss, keep up with it."

This had to be followed quietly, and the path could not be scared away. The Black Wind King took a light step and followed the deer's breath from afar. Soon, he came to a stream.

The deer is lowering her head to drink water.

Gu Jiao brought the large army over and walked up the stream, picking two wild fruits from time to time, or pulling two herbs.

The whole army was waiting for the young commander to get lost and cry.

They imagined the little commander-in-law: "Ah! What to do! What to do! I can't find the way! It's over! It's dark! The wolf is coming! I'm so scared! Snakes! There are poisonous snakes on the tree!"

What they saw in reality was like a commander—

He knocked out a tiger with one punch, grabbed the poisonous snake as a rope, and rode the Black Wind King to disperse the wolf pack with a torch.

Take them safely through the swamp and successfully bypass the miasma forest.

The most experienced soldier does not have the jungle survival ability like her.

Gu Jiao found a suitable open space near the stream, "Okay, let's camp here tonight, Cheng Fugui, Zhao Lei, you will take the people to take turns to watch tonight."

Cheng Fugui and Zhao Lei are the left and right commanders of the Pioneer Camp respectively.

The two bowed and replied: "Yes."

Gu Jiao said again: "Please continue to do it and don't make a fire."

The two responded again: "Yes!"

If you can't make a fire, you can only eat cold cakes. The temperature difference between morning and evening in the western part of Dayan is large, and the day is similar to that in summer. In order to prevent the food from spoiling, the chef baked the cakes dry and hard. After a few bites, his cheeks were sore. When he swallowed, he could feel his throat being scraped by a hard object.

Everyone was following the cold stream water, along the hard cakes that were scraping their throats. No one complained, and no one wasted it.

Gu Jiao sat by the stream, and she ate the same food as the soldiers.

But the soldiers were hugged together and did not get close to her, making her look a little lonely.

Everyone looked at the thin and green figure, and somehow they suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

...

After two days of walking, the Black Wind Cavalry finally arrived at the upper reaches.

There is a wide river surface here, and at the end of the river is a waterfall of hundreds of feet high.

The closer you are to the waterfall, the narrower the river surface, the shallower the river water, and the easier it is to pass through.

However, today's river is a bit turbulent, and if you are not careful, you may be washed down by the water flow.

"Boss." Gu Jiao pulled the reins, "Can you get over?"

The Black Wind King took a few steps back, and the texture of his body suddenly tensed up and he jumped into the water.

The water was not deep at this time. It just passed its knees and walked over calmly.

The other Black Wind Cavalry also jumped into the river one after another like dumplings, and under the comfort of the cavalry, they passed through the turbulent river without any danger.

But no one expected that it was the last few small black wind riders who suddenly became more and more turbulent. A big wave came over and a small black wind rider who was dragging food and grass was washed down.

The Black Wind King ran out and bit its reins!

The Black Wind King tried his best to resist the turbulent river and pulled the little Black Wind Rider up little by little with all his strength.

Both horses were on the shore, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the life of the little Heifeng Cavalry was saved, the food and grass on its back fell down, and it lowered its head in frustration.

The Black Wind King rubbed it with his wet head, like a silent soothing.

The army continued to move forward.

This little episode did not have much impact on the army, except for the little Black Wind Rider.

Losing food and grass, it followed the last side of the team listlessly until Gu Jiao put the herbs he picked along the way on its horse's back, and it cheered up again!

It took two days to go up the mountain, but it was much faster to go down the mountain.

They successfully arrived at the foot of the mountain in just one day.

Mu Qingchen was amazed: "It really took only three days."

The energy consumption of rushing on the road is extremely high. All the soldiers and war horses are very tired, but they only have one day to fix. Once tomorrow, they have to prepare to attack the city.

At midnight.

The Black Wind Cavalry scout sent by Gu Jiao came back. Gu Jiao was sitting under a big tree and discussing plans for siege with the six commanders, and Mu Qingchen was also there.

"Say." Gu Jiao looked at the spy and said.

The scout bowed and said, "If you go back to the commander, there will be good news and bad news."

Gu Jiao held a branch with a map in her hand, looked at him, and said, "Talk about the bad ones first."

The scout said: "The bad news is that we have three more cities that have been lost, two of which took the initiative to surrender to the Han family and the Nangong family, and the other city was captured by the Jin army."

Gu Jiao's branches drew a bit on the Yanmen Pass: "The Jin army has entered the country. So, Tianshan Pass has been completely lost."

The scout said in pain: "Yes."

"What about the good news?" Gu Jiao asked.

The scout said: "The good news is that there is not much food and grass in Quyang City. There are two county towns transporting food and grass to Quyang City. It is expected to arrive at the north gate and east gate of Quyang City tomorrow night."

They were worried about how to attack Quyang City. After all, the walls of Quyang City are solid, easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, they were the cavalry first and there were no chariots and supplies for infantry to attack the city, which made the breaking of the city gate from ordinary difficulty to hell-level difficulty.

The news that the scouts found out was indeed timely rain.

Cheng Fugui said: "We can rob their food and grass. Without food and grass, they can only be trapped in the city and hungry. They will definitely come out to take back the food and grass. That is our time."

Gu Jiao nodded: "Well, that's the reason."

But if food and grass arrive tomorrow night, it means that their offensive plan must be in advance.

An hour later, the scout went to check the whereabouts of food and grass, but brought back it was news that they had transported food and grass overnight.
