Chapter 833 A woman with a grudge

Two days later, Yunzheng officially issued the order to attack.

Ten thousand cavalry led by Fu Tianyan served as the vanguard and began to cross the river at the ford in front of the puppet city.

Yunzheng also followed Jia Yao's suggestion and left Deng Bao's 5,000 fine cavalry to guard Lingzhou in conjunction with Lingzhou's original 10,000 infantry.

Watching them cross the river, the enemy did not send a large army to stop them, but only sent a cavalry unit of about fifty people to stare at them on the other side of the Yudai River and closely monitor their every move.

Moreover, even if they wanted to stop it, there was nothing they could do.

There are too many places to cross the Yudai River.

Even if they sent out 10,000 or 20,000 people to stop them, they would not be able to stop Yun Zheng's army from crossing the river.

Instead of doing this, it is better to stay on defense and wait for work.

At this moment, several shrill sounds of war horses neighed from the vanguard that was crossing the river.

The horse on which the cavalry was sitting seemed to be injured and was thrashing around in pain, throwing off all the cavalry on its back.

Such an unexpected situation instantly plunged the leading troops who were crossing the river in an orderly manner into small-scale chaos.

"Ha ha……"

Seeing the troops crossing the river in chaos, the dozens of enemy cavalry suddenly burst into laughter.

Hearing their laughter, several cavalrymen crossing the river immediately bent their bows and shot arrows.

However, the arrows fell directly into the river without even hitting the enemy cavalry.

"Ha ha……"

Seeing that they were getting angry, the dozens of cavalrymen laughed even more happily.

Yun Zheng frowned slightly, and was about to send someone to inquire about the situation, but Fu Tianyan sent someone to report: "Your Highness, there are iron caltrops dropped by the enemy in the river. Our troops are blocked from crossing the river. General Fu wants to order people to check for the iron caltrops at the bottom of the river. Tribulus, the progress of the army crossing the river may be seriously delayed..."

After saying this, the visitor also offered an iron caltrop.

The four protruding iron thorns were sharp and sharp, with blood stains on them.

The war horse that screamed before was injured by this object.

"Order Fu Tianyan to first send people to clear the caltrops in the river, and then lead the army to cross the river!"

Yun Zheng said in a deep voice, and then ordered Shen Kuan: "Send someone to inform other ministries to be careful of the thorns in the river, and check the situation at the bottom of the river before crossing the river!"

"Yes!"

Shen Kuan and the people who came to summon him immediately ran away.

"This Lou Yi is really cunning! He actually ordered someone to drop this thing in the river."

Miaoyin took the caltrop from Yunzheng's hand and said, "Now, our progress across the river may be seriously delayed."

"It won't take long." Yun Zheng smiled nonchalantly, "I guess there aren't too many caltrops at the bottom of the river. If we don't want to increase unnecessary casualties, there is no need to investigate at all."

"Correct!"

Jia Yao nodded in agreement, "It would be good to be able to fish out hundreds of these caltrops from this area."

"How to say?"

Miaoyin was puzzled, "Why do you conclude that there are not many caltrops in this river?"

Yunzheng smiled: "Lou Yi just wants to slow down our march, not to cause much damage to me with this thing. If he drops a lot of caltrops into the river, he will become an enemy!" "

The river is not deep, not even deep enough for a person's knees.

Moreover, the river they crossed here was less than a hundred feet wide.

With so many of them, even if they were to investigate little by little, it would only take a little more than half a day to complete the investigation.

If a large amount of caltrops fell into their hands, wouldn't they be able to use it against Dayue Kingdom later?

"Besides, Dayue Kingdom doesn't have enough iron to make so many caltrops." Jiayao added: "Instead of making a lot of caltrops and throwing them in the river, it would be more practical to make more arrows."

In the battle of Sole River last year, although Dayue Kingdom made up for its losses in personnel by forcibly recruiting Qiu Chi's army, it also lost a lot of weapons and armor.

Dayue Kingdom must be seriously short of iron now. How could it be possible to use so much iron to make caltrops?

Just this piece of iron from this caltrop can make several arrows.

If it were her, she would definitely prefer to make more arrows.

Miaoyin suddenly realized, "So, Lou Yi just wants us to think that there are a lot of caltrops in the river and waste time fishing for them, thus slowing down our march?"

"It should have this purpose! But more importantly, it should be to disgust us."

Jia Yao said, his eyes falling on Yun Zheng again, "It's just like when he hung his mentor's golden sword there and buried the animal trap on the ground!"

"Is there any?" Yun Zheng touched his nose.

"What do you say?"

Gaoyao curled his lips.

"This is all about old sesame and rotten millet. Do you still remember?"

Yun Zheng shook his head and sighed, "So, you are such a vindictive woman!"

Hold a grudge?

Ga Yao curled his lips, "It sounds like you don't hold grudges."

"Well, I also hold grudges."

Yunzheng smiled and said, "I said, if you don't lead your 20,000 troops, why are you always staying by my side? Haven't you seen Luo Yan stay with his soldiers?"

"As long as our people are led by He Asu." Jia Yao said calmly: "It's just a simple crossing of the river. Do you still need me to lead it personally?"

Of course she wanted to stay with Yun Zheng.

As long as there is no official war, she wants to stay by Yunzheng's side.

When it comes to marching and fighting, Yun Zheng has a lot to learn from her.

As for whether to attack Gule or Iwu, she was thinking about this and that. No matter how she thought about it, she felt that capturing Iwu was the best plan.

But Yunzheng only used two words to make her feel that all her considerations had turned into a joke.

Flooded!

Two simple words, but no one can refute it.

No matter whether Beihuan will go to war with Daqian in the future, it is always good to learn more strategies from Yunzheng.

"As you wish!"

Seeing that she insisted on staying by his side, Yun Zheng didn't bother to say anything more.

When the war officially starts, let's see if she will stay by his side.

Almost half an hour later, Fu Tianyan's troops cleared a small safe position in the river.

Fu Tianyan quickly sent people to pass through a small section of the river beach that had been cleared to build defenses first.

Seeing someone rushing across the river, the dozens of Dayue Kingdom cavalry immediately ran away, running faster than rabbits.

At the same time, Yun Zheng took out his clairvoyance and began to observe the retreat path of this small group of cavalry.

After running for more than a mile, the small group of cavalry began to retreat crookedly towards the pseudo-city. From a distance, it looked like a small truck passing an S-turn.

"Shen Kuan!"

Yun Zheng shouted: "Immediately send someone to tell Fu Tianyan that there should be many enemy traps on the land between us and the puppet city. After his troops cross the river, just move forward one mile to establish defenses!"

"Yes!"

Shen Kuan ran away immediately.

"what is this?"

Jiayao's eyes fell on the clairvoyant eye in Yunzheng's hand.

"This is called clairvoyance."

Yunzheng smiled.

"clairvoyance?"

Ga Yao was stunned, "You mean, with this gadget, you can see thousands of miles away?"

how can that be!

Thousands of miles away!

What can see so far?

"Thousands of miles away must be an exaggeration."
