Liang Xiao hid along the southern foot of Yin Mountain during the day and walked at night. It took him three days to bypass the camp of the Youxian King and appeared behind the Huns.

He was very lucky. The Huns still followed their previous habits and scouted the scouts and reconnaissance range of thirty miles.

It is not surprising that the Huns have this habit. For the Han army, which is mainly infantry, thirty miles is the normal distance for a day to march. Even if it is a full marching force, thirty miles will take an hour. The Huns have enough reaction time and can even take advantage of the opportunity of the scattered formation when the infantry marching forcefully to counterattack. Both the Han and the Huns understand this truth, so when both sides approach, this warning distance is safe enough for the Huns.

Recently, Liang Xiao was not far apart from the Huns and almost passed by him. If the Huns were more alert, it was a high probability that he would be. Three thousand people were not dozens of people after all, and the horse's hooves were enough to leave unconcealed traces on the ground. Scouts were often the most experienced people. Just take a look and you can know that the number of cavalry passed by, and even estimate how many people there were.

Bypassing the camp of the Youxian King, Liang Xiao fled into the grassland, rushed all the way to the northwest, and disappeared from the sight of the Huns.

Although he successfully bypassed the camp of the Youxian King, he knew that every moment of delay, the danger would increase by three points. Once the Youxian King showed that there was an enemy behind him, he did not need to go out personally. As long as he reminded the baggage troops to be vigilant and strengthened his guard, he would have no chance.

After walking for more than a hundred miles, Liang Xiao stopped in front of a valley.

This is Gaoque.

On the east side of Gaoque is the main vein of Yin Mountain, on the west side of Yin Mountain, Langshan, and in the middle is a relatively flat valley, with thirty or forty miles wide and less than ten miles narrow. It is the best way for the Huns to cross Yin Mountain and enter and exit the Hetao area. The Qin general Meng Tian seized the land of Henan and once built a barrier here to defend it. Because the mountain is like a gate, it is named Gaoque. However, after the Qin army's Great Wall Legion was defeated in the Battle of Julu, the Huns re-controlled the land of Henan and had long demolished the Gaoque Fortress.

Liang Xiao passed by here on his first trip to the west, and now he is revisiting his old place. His mood is very different.

The battle was about to come, Liang Xiao summoned all the officers above the garrison commander to discuss the matter and mobilized them to cheer them up. Forty or fifty people surrounded Liang Xiao, looking at Liang Xiao with warm eyes, a little nervous, but more excited.

Before this, no one expected that they could reach the rear of the Huns so safely. Anyone who was negligent and was revealed by the Huns would become the target of the Right Xian King. Three thousand cavalry against 30,000 cavalry, there was only one way to die except escape. If it was not Liang Xiao who made this suggestion, but others, I was afraid that someone would refuse to implement it.

Until now, some people find it incredible and don’t believe they are safe.

Liang Xiao looked around. He drew out his short knife, drew a sketch on the ground, and finally pointed to the distance. "You guys, if the Huns were a fat sheep, then the most delicious sheep tail was in front of us, waiting for us to cut it."

Everyone laughed. A tall Tunchang shouted, "It's not just the sheep's tail, but also the sheep's eggs."

Everyone laughed even more presumptuously, shouting and venting their heart's content.

Liang Xiao did not stop him. Firstly, the people of this era were so rough. This was even more so in the army. Secondly, although it was a sneak attack, the enemy's strength was not weak. If he wanted to successfully attack, he had to arouse everyone's courage and fighting spirit, so that they could temporarily forget the fear brought by the huge gap in military strength between the two sides.

"That's right. The sheep egg is right in front of us. As long as we pinch him, the Huns will jump in pain. Today, we have only two tasks." Liang Xiao waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet. Then he raised two fingers. "One is to burn, the other is to kill."

"good!"

"happy!"

"Kill them all, maybe I can also be named a marquis."

Everyone said something, and I said it enthusiastically, as if the Huns were just a bunch of sheep, waiting for them to chop them up.

Liang Xiao looked at them, waited for a moment, and raised his hand again. "You heard it clearly, one is to burn and the other is to kill. You must not make any mistakes."

"Don't worry, sir, you can't be wrong."

"That's right, we are very good at these things and we will never make any mistakes."

Liang Xiao smiled but said nothing, but held two fingers and didn't move. When everyone saw this, they realized that Liang Xiao's expression was a little strange. They closed their mouths and looked at Liang Xiao for no reason. Liang Xiao's eyes swept across everyone's faces and finally fell on Xie Guanglong's face.

Xie Guanglong was the vanguard assault captain. He was not only responsible for the scout camp, but also the important task of entering the enemy's formation. This was the opportunity given to him by Liang Xiao, and he cherished it very much. After this battle, even if he could not be granted a marquis, it would be expected that he would be promoted to a higher position.

Seeing Liang Xiao looking at him, Xie Guanglong grabbed his head and recalled Liang Xiao's words again. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and stood up quickly. "Sir, I understand that this mission is mainly to burn the supplies of the Xiongnu dogs, so that they cannot fight for a long time. Killing is secondary. You cannot delay the main business because of chopping people's heads. Sir, am I right?"

Liang Xiao nodded in admiration and looked at the others again. "Did you hear it clearly?"

Everyone suddenly realized that some people patted their heads in disappointment. "I'm just happy, why did I forget this? I just wanted to steal the head, and I almost missed the big thing."

Someone nodded with understanding. "Yes, yes, burning their baggage is much more important than killing people. Without baggage, they not only can't fight again, but may also starve to death. If there is another heavy snow, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk, that's good."

"Not that? There is no bento for setting fire to cut off people's heads. It's more important to set fire."

Seeing that everyone understood the key points, Liang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. These people were all rough, brave and fierce, and there was nothing to say. It was much worse to talk about tactical strategies. Therefore, every time he arranged tactics, he had to explain the key points thoroughly and reminded them repeatedly so that no one could not tell the difference between the main and the secondary.

This kind of surprise attack that wins more with less will not tolerate any negligence. Everyone's power must be concentrated to exert its maximum power.

Liang Xiao immediately arranged for the generals to feed the horses, raise their energy, and attack in the middle of the night.

A thousand-man commander rushed to the tent of the central army of the Right Xianwang with a nervous scout.

The King of Youxian was having a meal, and when he saw the commander and the scout, he couldn't help but feel a little angry. He could guess what was going on. Seeing the scout's tired look on his face, he must have not returned all night and didn't know where to sleep. This is common, and scouts are also humans.

"Another lazy?" The King of Youxian picked up the golden cup and took a sip of wine. "It's just drag it out and kill it, why bother to report it."

The commander bowed and said, "Master, he has important news."

"What important news can be found?" The King of Youxian snorted disapprovingly: "It's just a few lies and I want to get through the test. You have also been fighting for so many years, and you can't even see through this trick?"

"Sir, I've sent someone to confirm."

"What are you sure about?" The Youxian King's eyelids suddenly jumped, and he was shocked. He put down the golden cup and rubbed his eyes.

"There are traces of a large army passing by at the foot of the mountain, heading northwest. Judging from the horse's hoof prints, there are at least seven or eight thousand people, or even ten thousand."

"Seven or eight thousand people? Ten thousand?" The King of Youxian laughed. "If so many people passed by us and none of you showed up, the entire scout camp should have been killed." He took another sip of wine and tilted the corner of his mouth. "Besides, does Hangou have so many cavalry? You won't tell me that Li Guang defeated Shanyu and walked around me, right? Do you believe such an unreasonable lie?"

The thousand-man's face was squeezed by the Right King's Virtue, and he smiled embarrassedly, turning around and leaving.

"Wait." The King of Youxian called him, as if he had thought of something, and slowly frowned. "Do you confirm there are traces of the army passing by?"

The captain hesitated for a moment and glanced at the scout. The scout knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly. "King, it's true that I have seen it with my own eyes. There will be no mistake. Although I am unsure of how many people there are, the number of war horses will definitely not be wrong."

The Youxian King narrowed his eyes, the smile on his face gradually dissipated, and his face slowly twisted. He waved and called to get close to his aide.

"I seem to remember someone said that Li Guang's deputy general is Liang Xiao?"

The staff nodded. "The king is right. King Aries said in person that Li Guang's deputy general is Liang Xiao, and he was the first to defeat the battle formation of King Aries."

The cheeks of the Right Xianwang twitched. He didn't believe the words of the commander, and believed that the Han army could not have so many cavalrymen here. However, if it were Liang Xiao, there was another possibility: maybe there were not so many people, but there were so many horses.

This young man from the Han family likes surprise attacks and likes the luxurious configuration of one man and three horses. In terms of cavalry tactics, he is more like the Huns than the Huns. It is not the first time for him to do something other Han people cannot do.

In the Western Regions, he once did something more outrageous than this, from the Western Regions to Hexi. Such long-distance raids have been nightmare for the Huns until now, especially for the Right King. It was Liang Xiao's miraculous attack that made his Western Expedition vague.

If it was Liang Xiao, then his goal would be very clear.

The Youxian King was silent for a moment, and suddenly jumped up. The case in front of him was knocked over by him. The wine, meat, melons and fruits on the table were everywhere. The Youxian King didn't care about taking a look. His face turned pale and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, order the troops of the Houjian to strengthen their vigilance. Liang Xiao is here."

The Qianfu leader jumped and almost knelt on the ground like a scout. The staff member was also startled and felt that the Right Xianwang was a little nervous. He quickly reminded: "Master, is it too early to draw a conclusion now? It is safer to send the scout to inquire again, after all."

"Fart!" The Right Xian King was furious and slapped his hand. "Have you forgotten Liang Xiao's lesson? Looking at the world like this, who else can do it except him? Quick, hurry up, send an order immediately."

He turned around two circles and suddenly said, "No, I have to go in person. If Liang Xiao burned the baggage and destroyed this war, the Shanyu would peel me up, and I would have no shame to command the right part of the Huns again."
