Chapter 277 Bing is expensive and fast?
Langya Mountain Pass.
Wulie has led his army to join the defenders at Langya Pass.
However, they only rested temporarily and looked like they were about to attack Langya Pass at any time.
There are also some people who have been sent by him to collect dry food from the tribes around the Muma Grassland.
They were going to raid lightly this time and could not carry too much food and grass.
People's rations are secondary, the main thing is to ensure the rations of the war horses.
Fortunately, Bambu has made arrangements in advance, and fodder has been prepared for these war horses.
Near Death Valley, some tribes also prepared fodder and beans for their war horses.
After waiting for another day's rest there, they can attack the rear of the Beifu Army with light equipment.
As long as they can capture a city first and seize food and grass, whether it is fodder for war horses or rations for personnel, they can be supplied.
They are fully prepared for this raid!
It will definitely work!
Thinking of the benefits brought by a successful raid, Wu Lie couldn't help but be excited.
Once this plan succeeds, in the entire Shuobei, except for the important place of Beiluguan, there will be no city that can stop Beihuan's military front!
Just when Wu Lie was secretly excited, the spies came to report, "Reporting to the eldest prince, Shuofang's defenders have made some changes. It seems that they are going to increase their troops to Langya Mountain Pass!"
After hearing the spies' report, Wu Lie couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Approximately how many people are there?"
"There should be tens of thousands of people!"
The spy replied.
"Ten thousand people?"
Wulie laughed loudly, "Try again!"
"Yes!"
The spies immediately took the order and left.
Watching the spies leave, Wu Lie couldn't help laughing again.
Yunzheng was fooled!
There must be an emptiness behind Shuofang!
As long as their army rushes out of the Death Valley, they will surely be able to capture Suqu and Shuofang easily!
By then, even if they cannot capture Mayi, they will still be invincible!
"Eldest Prince, should we order someone to try to storm Langya Mountain Pass and make the trick even better?"
At this time, Lieutenant Zuo next to him asked Wulie again.
Wu Lie thought for a moment, nodded and said: "You can try to attack, but you must mainly use feint attacks!"
"Yes!"
Captain Zuo immediately went to give orders.
Wulie sat in the tent, his mind constantly fluctuating.
If the soldiers who went to collect dry food hadn't come back yet, he couldn't wait to rush to Death Valley.
The first two battles caused him, the great prince, to suffer great humiliation.
In this battle, we must avenge our shame!
As long as he wins this battle, he will become Beihuan's hero and will be respected by all Beihuan warriors!
No matter King Zuo Xian, King You Xian or King Ming, they could not threaten his position in Beihuan!
This battle is enough to clear all obstacles for him to inherit the position of Great Chanyu in the future!
The more Wu Lie thought about it, the more excited he became. He couldn't help but take the wine bag from his waist and take a few gulps of kumiss...
After resting for a day at Langya Mountain Pass, Wu Lie immediately led an army of to the Death Valley.
The -strong army galloped all the way, making almost no stops along the way.
Before dark, they arrived at a large tribe that was only twenty miles away from the mouth of the Forty Thousand Valley.
Thanks to Bambu's advance instructions, the tribesmen had prepared the fodder and beans needed for their war horses.
They only need to rest here for a night, and they can enter Death Valley early tomorrow morning!
I learned from the prisoners who had escaped before that the entire length of Death Valley was about a hundred miles.
Their biggest trouble now is to deal with the snow in the valley.
Because of the howling cold wind in the valley, the snow was not too deep.
But the snow is still waist-deep in a few places.
Such deep snow will definitely affect the speed of the war horses passing through.
They must pass through the Death Valley as quickly as possible and fight towards the rear of the Beifu Army!
After thinking silently for a while, Wu Lie called the two captains and ordered: "Early tomorrow morning, you will lead your cavalry into the Death Valley before the army is dispatched. When encountering deep snow, directly trample it with your war horses!"
"This..." One of the captains looked embarrassed and said cautiously: "Prince, I don't know how long this deep snowy area is. We only have two thousand people. I'm afraid..."
Before the man could finish speaking, the sword suddenly flashed.
brush!
The fierce scimitar slashed across the neck of the speaking commander.
The captain clutched his neck tightly and looked at Wu Lie in disbelief.
He didn't expect that his casual words would lead to death.
The corpse of the captain fell down straight with a heart full of unwillingness.
"Drag out!"
Wulie waved to the soldiers, then looked at the other captain with a frosty face, "Do you have any questions?"
Facing the fierce gaze, the captain shook his head vigorously, "No... no problem!"
How dare he say there is a problem!
If he really dares to say there is a problem, he will follow in the footsteps of the person just now.
"Best!"
Wulie put away his scimitar and looked at the commander coldly: "I don't care what method you use, even if you use people to suppress it, you must force a way out for my prince's army!"
Soldiers are very fast!
Beihuan's war horses are all excellent war horses!
The distance of a hundred miles usually takes half a day.
Even if it is winter, even if there is snow in the valley, he can't delay it for too long!
Before dark tomorrow, their army must pass through the Death Valley. Early the next morning, they will divide their forces to raid Shuofang and Suqu, and then rush towards Mayi with thunderous momentum!
No one can stop them!
This night, Wu Lie was extremely excited and almost didn't sleep a wink all night.
The next day, before dawn, everyone began to feed and prepare the horses.
As soon as it got dark, Wu Lie ordered the army to start gathering.
After the army was assembled, Wu Lie immediately led his army towards Death Valley.
The two thousand people who opened the way set off almost an hour earlier than them.
With the people in front clearing the way, their marching progress was not greatly affected.
However, at noon, they caught up with the two thousand people who were leading the way.
There is almost ten miles of deep snowy road ahead. The two thousand people have already cleared most of it, and there are still two or three miles left to clear.
Knowing that the marching speed would be affected, Wu Lie became furious on the spot.
Seeing that Wu Lie was about to kill the captain who was responsible for opening the way, Lieutenant Zuo beside him quickly dissuaded him and said: "My eldest prince, there are only two or three miles left. It won't take long. We just have the men and horses to rest for a while." ."
Wu Lie thought for a while, then sheathed the knife with a frosty face.
"Order the entire army to rest!"
Wu Lie ordered the messenger next to him, and then looked coldly at the frightened captain, "I'll give you two quarters of an hour. If you can't get through the road behind, watch your head!"
"Yes!"
The captain did not dare to neglect, and rushed to urge the front army to fight with all their lives to open a way...
