Da Qin: the Identity of My Eldest Son Has Been Discovered

A strong man asked in a low voice: "Master Captain, what should we do tomorrow?"

A man in armor next to him also said doubtfully: "According to the plan, the caravan cannot go [-] miles deep into the grassland. But even if the speed is slowed down tomorrow, it will exceed the regulations of Shangfeng."

This caravan is a bait to attract Donghu, and it may be attacked by Hu people at any time.

Their speed is strictly controlled.

In order to avoid being too far away from the rear army, it is too late to rescue.

Moreover, if an army of 20 goes deep into the grassland, it is extremely dangerous, and the supply alone is a big problem!

Therefore, even the distance to enter the grassland is strictly regulated.

If you go to 120 miles tomorrow, you will not be able to move forward.

Otherwise, the supply of food and grass for the army will be difficult, and the caravan of 1 people will become a lone army.

They are bait, you can only watch but not eat.

Instead of actually delivering food to Donghu!

Captain Zhou sat by the fire, holding a dead branch in his hand and gently pulling out the flames.

On his calm face, he looked very indifferent.

Hearing the subordinate's inquiry, he smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, that won't happen."

As the supreme commander in the caravan, stabilizing the morale of the army is the first priority.

Even in my heart, I don't know whether to advance or retreat tomorrow, but I can't show it on my face.

Otherwise, even the supreme commander will be lost, and the people below will not follow suit.

Although the distance from the army is only fifty miles, there is no need to worry too much about safety.

But once a flaw appeared due to confusion and Donghu gave up the plunder, the captain's responsibility would be great!

Even if the people below are confused, you have to show a confident look.

suddenly

In the dark night, a steed galloped over quickly.

"Report...!"

In the distance, the shouts of cavalry were heard.

The captain frowned, threw away the stick in his hand and stood up.

After checking the password, the patrolling soldier put him into the defensive circle of the carriage.

The person who came rode his horse and rushed forward, turned over and jumped off skillfully.

He said loudly: "There is news from the secret work that a large number of Donghu cavalry is gathering thirty miles away, with a number of about 12!"

"12 million!"

After hearing the report, the captain couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Although it was already guessed at the time of departure that Donghu must have an absolute advantage in strength if he wants to swallow the caravan as quickly as possible.

It's just that I didn't expect that I still underestimated the Hu people's determination.

A military marquis blushed and said excitedly: "My lord, give the order!"

The captain came back to his senses, with a look of determination in his eyes.

He said loudly: "The whole army faces the Donghu cavalry!"

"Here!"

Immediately, all the generals below responded loudly.

Each face was not worried because of the large number of Donghu people, but excited.

The world is unified, and the mainland has no military achievements to make.

Only by fighting against the barbarians can we continue to gain military merits and improve our titles.

During the battle in Shangjun two months ago, quite a few people were promoted by military merits, which made people envious.

This time they fought against the Huns on the vast prairie, and their military achievements were much more than that of defending the city.

Qin Law divides the acquisition of military merits in great detail.

Even if it is to attack a city, if one's own casualties are too heavy, it will also be of no military merit.

If you defend the city and fight, your military achievements will be greatly reduced.

And fighting in the wild, the military merit is the greatest!

After the order was issued, the military princes immediately summoned their men and horses.

The servants who had been sleeping by the fire got up one after another, and skillfully ran to the surrounding carriages.

Open the compartment and take out the quick equipment of the weapon and armor.

Even, a messenger crossbow was taken out from a row of carriages!
