Cangjiang City is to the south and the Xunshan Mountains are to the north.
Canyons tower on both sides, with no birds and animals in the mountains and few people.
A little further south of the mountains, you can see billowing smoke.
In the wilderness, more than ten thousand troops rushed towards us.
There were many tall flags flying among the army.
The sergeants were so busy that they looked like they were constantly on the move.
Although the general seemed to have defeated the opponent, personal bravery could not change the fact that the troops were insufficient.
More than 10,000 officers and soldiers were defeated in consecutive battles.
This is the fifth time that they have abandoned their camp and fled into the Beixun Mountains.
Once you pass this mountain, you will reach Cangjiang City. The army of more than 10,000 people will have no way to retreat unless they flee into Cangjiang River.
The morale of the officers and soldiers was slightly low.
The main reason is that in the past few days, I almost ran away without fighting.
Fight and retreat.
The route is somewhat hesitant.
Fortunately, the generals set an example.
In the past few days, the generals headed by Fan Long often led a small number of troops to counterattack the opponent.
When it came time to retreat, Fan Long and other generals took the initiative to cut off the rear and occupied the last position of the army.
"Wan Pingjun is like a mad dog, chasing us and not letting go."
Beside Fan Long, there are thousands of people who will taunt each other.
Even if the other party couldn't hear it, the officers and soldiers would all smile.
Fan Long laughed and said: "The main reason is that Cao Fenwei's 'reduction strategy' was so powerful that it confused the opponent's judgment."
The general could not tell the winner, and Fan Long's army did not gain much benefit from the subsequent head-to-head confrontation.
So Fan Long continued Cao Su's strategy and began to lure the enemy deeper.
"Reduce the firepower to lure the enemy", making the enemy mistakenly think that the officers and soldiers are defeated, and soldiers continue to flee.
This kind of deceptive method is not very clever, but it cannot stop several cultivators in Fan Long's army.
The ascetic casts a spell to shield the other ascetic from prying eyes all day long.
When the other party saw it, the officers and soldiers actually wanted to "cover up the truth", which was obviously a sign of "guilty conscience", so they quickly told Pei Shi and Wu Dun.
Pei Shi was originally upset because of the excessive loss of high-level combat power, and after confirming that the opponent was on the verge of collapse.
He no longer hesitated and chased after him crazily, hoping to chase the officers and soldiers to death.
So the pursuit lasted for several days, until the two armies approached the Beixun Mountains.
Cao Su looked at Beixun Mountain, his heart moved, and he walked to Fan Long and said, "Sir, Pei Shi is not an incompetent person. After entering the mountain, he will definitely be more careful."
Fan Long glanced at Cao Su and said directly: "Cao Fenwei has any ideas, but it doesn't matter."
Cao Su suggested: "We will set up camp in front of the mountain. The rebels will definitely relax tonight, thinking that we will drag them into the mountain and set up an ambush in the mountain."
Fan Long's eyes suddenly lit up.
Cao Su got the idea and whispered a few words into Fan Long's ear.
After Fan Long heard this, he laughed loudly: "What Cao Fenwei said is absolutely true. The so-called use of troops is nothing more than 'adapting to circumstances'."
"If we win this battle, you should be the first to contribute to our army!"
Cao Su smiled slightly and said no more.
........
That night, the officers and soldiers entered the camp in front of the mountain and stationed themselves.
A few miles away from the officers and soldiers was the camp of the bandits who were hotly pursuing them.
Cao Su climbed up the mountain, blew the mountain wind, and looked down.
In the dark night, the bandit camp was dotted with flames.
Fan Long and Cao Su watched together and sighed: "The thieves' army is powerful, so we must not underestimate the enemy."
Cao Su watched silently for a while, and then suddenly said: "Your Excellency, you can allocate one hundred elite men and horses to me. I will take these one hundred men and horses to rob the camp first. If one man and one horse are lost, it will not be counted as merit."
"
"You only need to wait until the enemy's position is in chaos, then cover up the situation and charge out. You will be able to defeat them in one battle."
Fan Long's eyes almost popped out when he heard this.
He said in shock: "Are you serious?"
How could Cao Su be joking? He looked at Fan Long very seriously.
Fan Long was frightened by Cao Su's courage and sighed: "Cao Fenwei is indeed worthy of his reputation. He dared to rob the bandit camp with hundreds of horses!"
He had to admit that Cao Su was the best choice in terms of courage, martial arts, strategy, etc. He had no shortcomings except for his average life experience.
But these days, the world is about to be in chaos, and classes are being reshuffled.
Only those with strength have a background. Compared with the fixed standard of judging people, Fan Long is more willing to believe that Cao Su will reach a higher position sooner or later.
Then, maybe even he will come to look up to this person.
His heart trembled, he didn't know why he had such an idea.
Then a smile appeared on his face and he praised: "Cao Fenwei, in that case, I will allocate eighty warriors with three levels of vitality and blood to join you, and at the same time, I will allocate twenty centurions in the strength realm to help you form an army."
Cao Su readily agreed.
The selection of these hundreds of warriors is entirely determined by Fan Long alone.
Cao Su deliberately did not talk about his troops, but he actually felt that it was too dangerous.
After the two returned to the camp, Fan Long quickly pulled out a hundred people.
These hundred people came to the camp, and Cao Su invited them to sit down. In front of each person's seat, there was a bowl of wine and several kilograms of cooked fire dolphin meat.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. After seeing Cao Su, they felt something in their hearts, but no one wanted to speak first.
Cao Su picked up the wine bowl and said to everyone: "I have been ordered to rob the camp tonight. Please drink the wine in your bowl to the full. You must not retreat until the enemy camp is broken."
After Cao Su said this, everyone felt cold and cold.
But the hundred people selected are all brave men in the army.
Although they were surprised, no one flinched.
Cao Su had already ordered this to be "ordered to rob the camp".
Everyone is not stupid. If they follow orders, they are following Fan Long's orders.
In the military, disobedience is a capital offense.
Who dares to say "no"?
"Thousands of thieves will wreak havoc on the country and harm the people, and everyone will find them and punish them."
Cao Su said kindly: "I am a brave general in the army, and I will not hesitate to die. I will go forward with you, vowing to kill the leader of the thieves and restore a great land to Qianyuan. If you are afraid of death, you can raise it now."
Come out, there is no shame.”
The toughest soldiers in the army can't stand such an aggressive general.
When Cao Su said this, everyone's eyes were on fire, and the slightest hesitation was gone.
Some soldiers were dissatisfied and said: "The war is just a war. Why do you humiliate us? Although we have a low life, we also know that you will serve the country..."
As soon as Cao Su saw that the atmosphere was getting better, he stopped irritating everyone.
He showed a smile and said: "In that case, please drink this bowl to the full!"
“I’d like to give you a bowl!”
Everyone raised their wine bowls and saluted Cao Su in return: "Honor, Lord Cao!"
Cao Su laughed, then drank the wine in the bowl and shared the meal with everyone.
By the time we had had enough wine and food, it was already midnight.
Cao Su led everyone to put on armor and mount their horses.
At this moment, he suddenly had a thought in his mind. If he rides a horse after drinking alcohol, would this be considered a drunk driving?
Then he laughed at himself, saying that if you drive drunk, you can drive drunk, and no one will care about him anyway.
He asked everyone to tie a striking white cloth on their right arm.
Then more than a hundred riders flew quietly to the outside of the Wanping Army's camp.
I pulled back the antlers and saw the closed gate of the camp.
As expected, the Wan Ping army was quite lax. Cao Su took the lead and raised the big moon sword in his hand.
He smashed through the gate of the camp.
The gate of the temporary camp was very loose.
Cao Su's attack was carried out with all his strength, and coupled with the impact of the war horse, the force was more than 20,000 kilograms.
It hit the door like an explosion.
With just one blow, the entire door was smashed open by Cao Su and fell to the ground.
The explosion shook the sky. Under the starry night, the sleeping sergeants of Wanping Army were all panicked, thinking that a meteor had fallen from the sky.
"Kill thieves and enemies, and make achievements today. Come with me!"
Cao Su shouted, and more than a hundred cavalry followed him and rushed into the camp.
The sound of the hooves of more than a hundred horsemen resounded in the camp like thunder.
The entire Wanping Army's camp structure is very ordinary, with no structure or formation.
Cao Su led more than a hundred cavalry, charging left and right, causing each battalion to make a noise and raise fire like stars. The camp was a sea of fire, the shouts were loud, and in the black smoke, countless enemy troops from the Wanping Army came in.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
The Wanping army was in chaos.
On the high ridge in the distance, Fan Long, who was observing the situation at Wanping Military Camp, was shocked.
He could clearly see that there were patches of fire in the Wanping Army camp.
I don’t know how many tens of thousands of soldiers there are, disturbing each other.
He sighed: "What a madman. A hundred people can mess up the Wanping Army..."
