Zhou Yu is actually quite cautious, but you can't let a guy who has been in the south all year round and has rarely been to the north understand the northern barbarians' method of using eagles to conduct reconnaissance.
Li Yan, who was also sent to complete this task, was also quite cautious, but the problem was that none of his precautions were to detect the direction of the sky. For guys like Li Yan and Zhou Yu in the south, this was something they had never encountered before.
Passed.
This also led to the fact that Zhou Yu and Li Yan were obviously very cautious, but in fact their whereabouts had been exposed without even knowing it.
"General, there is a group of about thirty people running towards us from the front." A scout who had been hiding in the grass carefully ran over to let Li Yan know.
"Well, come straight to us?" Li Yan asked after being silent for a while.
"Yes, there was no movement to determine the direction, but they came straight all the way." The spy said truthfully.
Li Yan's heart sank. He had been very cautious along the way, but he didn't expect such an accident. "Have those thirty people followed the army?"
"No, we have determined that there are only these thirty people, and they should have passed here accidentally." The scout lowered his head and informed Li Yan of his guess.
"Really?" Li Yan felt a little relieved when he heard the scout say this, but when he thought about the other party coming straight towards here, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
"Continue to keep an eye on them." Li Yan was silent for a while and said to the scout.
The liaison officer sent by the Wuwantou people looked at the war eagle in the sky. The eagle was hovering above them, which meant that the Han army was here, but all the Wuwantou people could see was a patch of weeds. Although it might be because
There is a gap of more than 100 steps regarding the angle of declination, but the Han army was still not found at such a close distance, which still illustrates the problem.
"Warriors of the Han Dynasty, we are not the Northern Huns, we are the Karasuma people. If you continue to hide here, you may be discovered by the Northern Huns." Karasuma's liaison officer took a deep breath and shouted to the front.
The Wuwan people spoke in Chinese, so Li Yan heard it very clearly, and the cold sweat on his back almost soaked through his clothes. Although he didn't know if the other party was deceiving him, but when he thought that the scout said that the other party came all the way here, he
Instantly they understood that the other party was not deceiving them.
Li Yan immediately jumped out of the grass and appeared directly in front of the Karasuma liaison officer. The Karasuma liaison officer was also startled.
"Who are you?" Li Yan asked, staring at all the Karasuma people.
"We are Karasuma people. We don't want to fight with your Han army. But if we don't fight with you now, we will die. If we fight with you, we will die if you suffer heavy losses." Karasuma's contact person quickly explained that this
At times, pretending is tantamount to courting death.
"How did you discover us?" Li Yan instantly understood what Karasuma's contact person meant and immediately asked the next question.
"Eagle, so you can't hide here." Karasuma's contact pointed at the eagle in the sky and said, "The Northern Huns are stronger and can fly higher!"
Li Yan looked up at the small dot in the sky and couldn't help but look gloomy, "If the Northern Huns use this method to investigate, how long will it take to detect this place?"
"The eagle flies very fast, much faster than the reconnaissance cavalry. We can't guarantee it, but the eagle training cannot be too far away from the army. We estimate that the Northern Huns will arrive in one hour, while the eagle training will take three quarters of an hour.
, as fast as a quarter of an hour." Karasuma liaison officer said quickly.
"In the sky?" Li Yan took a deep breath. He now has two choices. One is to return to the ship and inform Zhou Yu that the plan failed, and then think of other ways. The other is to break it into pieces and hide in the forest and bushes.
middle.
"All the village commanders listen to the order, and each village should hide in units. Don't let the eagles in the sky discover you!" Li Yan immediately issued the order.
Although the bushes and forests were dangerous, Li Yan was willing to take the risk rather than giving up. It was unlikely that the Huns would burn the forests near the main battlefield.
Of course, the possibility of doing this is not small. At least Li Yan knew that if the opponent was a guy like Zhou Yu who would set fire as long as arson could solve the problem, they would be miserable in the forest.
It's early autumn now, the weather is dry and the leaves in the broad-leaved forest block the sky, so there is no problem in detecting it.
As for how many units should be used, problems such as they will become scattered soldiers when they join together and their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, can also be forcibly solved using Li Yan's own legion talent.
Li Yan gave the order, and immediately in front of the Karasuma liaison officer, nearly a thousand people came out of a large area, and then people came out one by one from further away, and then quickly executed Li Yan's order.
"You are from the Karasuma tribe." Li Yan asked. If the Karasuma people had not taken the risk to pass on this important information to them, I am afraid that their Jiangdong soldiers might have been defeated here today.
"We are not any unit, we are the majority of Karasuma in Youbei, so when the fight breaks out, you Han troops just don't grab us and fight." The Karasuma liaison officer looked around and told Li Yan a big news.
"Most of you Karasumas in Youbei?" Li Yan felt a little confused, "Does that mean that the Karasumas in the Liaodong Peninsula don't want to follow the Northern Xiongnu?"
Karasuma's liaison officer nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and so did the other Karasuma who followed him.
"Since you don't want to fight with the Northern Huns, why don't you join us in fighting them!" Li Yan could not understand the way of thinking of the Karasuma people at all.
"Can't beat him. Not his opponent. His hometown has been occupied. The Chanyu has been controlled." When Karasuma's liaison officers mentioned this, they immediately became buzzing, but Li Yan finally understood what it meant.
"Okay, as long as you don't attack us, we can promise not to take action first, and when you are lured by the Northern Huns to fight with us, we can promise not to use you as the main target of attack." Li Yan made an empty promise anyway.
So I immediately gave Karasuma a guarantee.
"Thank you. We will prepare to go to the Han army for horseback shooting before the Northern Huns come. Of course, it is just for show." The liaison officer led by Karasuma gave Li Yan another big news.
Immediately I understood what was going on.
[It seems that the Karasuma people don't want to be cannon fodder, and are also afraid of being killed by us. They want to befriend us, but they can't win people's trust. The idea of training eagles is also an accident, and now they want to completely do it.
Climb out of the pit of the Han-Hungarian War.]
Li Yan instantly made an estimate and couldn't help but have a plan in his mind, "This alone is not enough, Karasuma, you must submit a certificate of surrender. Let me see how far you can go. The weak must obey the strong."
How can I allow you to sit high on the Diaoyutai under my command?] (To be continued.)
