Chapter 476 Detour to the rear

"How wide is this place and how many people can pass through it?"

"It's so wide...it's not that wide, and it's very difficult to walk. You can only pass people, but you can't move horses."

Wu Jian pointed at the map. He had not been there either. He only heard that Shi Ming slipped in from this place.

"Shi Ming and the others went to the rear and snatched horses from the county."

Di Lingyi later learned something.

Long Chen looked at the map and said: "The enemy can come, and I can go too! They can come, and we can go there."

Emperor Lingyi asked: "Do you want to rush to the rear of Xixia?"

Long Chen nodded and said: "Yes, they can mess with our rear, and so can we."

Dugu Jiali said happily: "Yes, we can too! Let's take revenge!"

However, Emperor Lingyi looked embarrassed and said: "I'm afraid it's not appropriate. They are beasts and massacre unarmed people. Let's go there..."

When Shi Ming came to the rear, he killed everyone he saw. He did things like animals. Long Chen couldn't do this kind of thing.

"Don't kill the people, only the bald donkeys and officers and soldiers."

Long Chen cannot be as beastly as Shi Ming.

"What if Kongji and Deshan besiege you?"

If Xixia sends out a large army to besiege, Long Chen may not be able to break out of the siege with so few troops.

"Yes, this issue must be taken into consideration. If Shi Le personally takes action and Kongji Bald Donkey intercepts you from the front, your Excellency will be in danger."

Zhang Qian also felt very dangerous.

Long Chen smiled and said: "The most they can do is block it from the east and west. If I am really desperate, I will go north."

To the north is the barbarian grassland. Once you enter the grassland, you will have plans and support.

"Yes, if we go north, they will definitely not be able to catch up."

Di Lingyi is no longer worried.

"Old Wu, select 500 good players from the Knight Rider Camp for me and set out at night."

Bai Tingting said: "I will go with you!"

Zhang Qian and Dugu Jiali also wanted to go. Long Chen said: "Zhang Qian, you want to command the lancers, and Jiali, you want to command the crossbow battalion. You can't leave. Just help the princess guard the pass here."

"Tingting, follow me. Princess, just stay here and don't attack easily."

"When I mess up the rear, I will send a message back."

Di Lingyi nodded and said: "You have to be especially careful. If something goes wrong, just go north."

Back in the room, Long Chen gave Wu Jian a secret letter and said: "Tomorrow morning, Fei Ying will pass the letter and hand it over to Tu Zhi."

Wu Jian received the secret letter, Long Chen put on the green dragon armor, and took Bai Tingting with him to the pass in the night.

In midsummer, there is still a slight coolness in the desert at night.

Long Chen and Bai Tingting led the Xiaoqiying camp to ride horses for two hours, and finally arrived at the entrance of the valley.

"It's so dark that it's hard for people to get through, let alone war horses."

Bai Tingting looked worried at the winding mountain roads in the valley.

Leng Yu, the captain of the Xiaoqi Battalion, said: "No more than two people can walk on this road at the same time, and there is a cliff in the middle. I walked through it once when I was exploring the road and drawing a map."

"At night, only people can leave, and the horses must stay here."

To guard Jade Buddha Pass, the surrounding terrain must be surveyed and mapped, and Leng Yu is the person in charge.

Wu Jian asked Leng Yu to follow Long Chen into the battle because Leng Yu knew the situation on this road.

"I came here on horseback just to be faster. I didn't intend to bring the war horse over."

"In this way, everyone will dismount and leave one brother here. When daybreak, we will take the horses back and the others will follow me."

"Captain Leng, lead the way."

Long Chen was the first to dismount, and Leng Yu took the lead. Everyone only brought two days' worth of dry food and had weapons and crossbows on their backs.

The road was a bit dark at night, so Long Chen asked everyone to light torches, but not too many, and slowly climbed over the valley to reach Xixia territory.

"Where are we?"

Long Chen asked Leng Yu.

When it was dark at night, Leng Yu stood on the top of the mountain, looked at it for a while, and then said: "We are to the east of Tower Town. During the day, we can see a tower in that direction."

Opening the map, Long Chen looked at the map carefully by the light of the fire.

"We are in Tower Town, heading west...Zhenguo Temple..."

When entering the enemy's rear, mobility is very important. Long Chen is now thinking about how to get five hundred horses.

This is not a small amount.

"My lord, do you want to get a war horse?"

Bai Tingting looked at Long Chen and kept frowning.

"Yes, I was thinking about this issue all the way."

Long Chen scratched his head, pointed at the map and asked Leng Yu: "I remember that there are horse thieves near here, do you know where they are?"

During the last escort trip, Long Chen encountered the horse thieves who robbed the escort in the valley near Tower Town.

Moreover, when I inquired about it at the time, I was told that there were many horse thieves around here.

If we can find the lair of the horse thieves and surround them, we will have war horses.

"There are indeed horse thieves nearby, but I really don't know where the horse thieves' lair is."

Leng Yu said awkwardly.

At that time, the focus of his surveying, mapping and reconnaissance was on things of military value, and he paid no attention to matters such as horse thieves.

"That would be a bit difficult..."

Without war horses, it would be impossible to maneuver, let alone cause trouble in the rear.

"Sir, how about... we scan the nearby villages and towns and just pay them."

Bai Tingting wants to buy it from the people.

"No, what's the difference between doing this and those bald thieves?"

Long Chen didn't want to become a beast like Shi Ming.

"We give money, it's not like we're robbing people."

Bai Tingting thinks that just giving her money will be enough.

"Sir, there is a situation."

The security guard ran over.

"What's wrong?"

"There is a group of people coming over there. It looks like there are quite a few people."

Long Chen went up to the top of the mountain and saw a group of torches moving to the northwest.

Taking out his binoculars, Long Chen saw a team of about seventy or eighty people, riding horses and holding torches. Behind them were some weeping women, and a group of war horses with complete saddles.

"What a coincidence!"

Long Chen smiled and put away the telescope, and said: "A group of horse thieves are coming over there. Let's ambush in front. Don't let anyone go!"

Bai Tingting was surprised and said: "What a coincidence?"

Long Chen secretly laughed in his heart: I have the halo of being the protagonist, what a coincidence!

Leng Yu didn't find it strange and said: "Xixia doesn't care much about the life and death of the people. It's normal to recruit troops and fight in the front and bandits to be rampant in the rear."

Normally, I still worry about the officers and soldiers, but when it comes to war, the world is in chaos, and horse thieves also take the opportunity to come out and cause trouble.

"Go, enter the ambush!"

Long Chen led his men to move in front of the horse thieves, and then laid an ambush on both sides of the mountain road.

The torch gradually came over, and the three horse thieves at the head were riding horses and walking slowly.

"Boss, I made a fortune tonight and robbed a few beautiful ladies."

A lanky horse thief looked back at dozens of women, his eyes full of lust.

"They are the bald concubines of Zhenguo Temple."

A bearded horse thief smashed his mouth, feeling a little impatient.

"Didn't you feel so good just now? You're still hungry!"

The lanky horse thief laughed.

The minions behind him yelled, "The Third Master is in good health, so one time is not enough."

The horse thieves burst into laughter.

The leader of the horse thief remained silent, and the second child asked: "Boss, are you worried about the thief's revenge?"

The boss said: "Yes, we have robbed Thieves' logistics transportation. If they attack us, it will be difficult."

"As you know, the gang of thieves in Zhenguo Temple are different. They have a strong desire for revenge."
