Chapter 580: Prepare to Fight
The team of more than three people was very fast. When dawn was almost dawn in the morning, the caravan was discovered again, and it was discovered after following him for less than two kilometers.
"Grandmaster, the Tiel cavalry are catching up." The adjourned cavalry stopped, and the convoy continued to advance. They were not running away, but looking for a suitable place to fight.
With more battles or less, during the daylight, the convoy must not be surrounded by good enemies. The convoy continued to rush. Shi Huaiyi watched the convoy away from them and led more than a hundred flying cavalry brothers to slow down.
"How do you fight the captain?" the guards asked.
"Hold."
The commander of the Tiel Cavalry was a little cautious and did not want to complete the night attack so eager for quick success. Now their mission is to find opportunities to eat each other.
After knowing that the other party is not a good person, he observes first and does not immediately issue an offensive order.
The vanguards have fought many battles with fewer victory, but in Shi Huaiyi's support, they would not go to die. Their purpose is to hold the enemy back. As for how much they can hold, it is really impossible to determine.
Shi Huaiyi is not stupid. Now that he is rushing over, even the elite will not have a good end.
Just as the Tiel Cavalry appeared, Shi Huaiyi led his men to attack directly with bows and arrows. The flying cavalry was very fast and the fighting quality was excellent. He took away dozens of Tiel Cavalrymen in one encounter.
Then I saw the flying rider and horse retreating around the convoy. Why did I run towards the convoy? This is the reason why intelligence is just because intelligence is mistaken for being so dark.
At that time, the flying cavalry made tampering at an intersection, and the disguised traces were obviously not smashed, while there were messy horseshoe footprints on the other side of the road.
The commander of the Tiel Cavalry saw that the person was running too fast and ran away as soon as they met, and they injured several of their soldiers. This was the first time they saw this.
When faced with a choice, the commander of thousands of people was hesitant but finally chose to rush toward a road where he was walking without any trace.
"Prince, do they really not pursue him?" asked the Feiqi guard curiously.
Shi Huaiyi just used his brains. He didn't know whether the enemy could be fooled, but he just hoped that the convoy could go faster.
After about one stick of incense, there was still no pursuit. Shi Huaiyi was able to confirm that the enemy was deceived, and the time he had won was not enough. As for where the road there was, he didn't know at all.
"Grandmaster, Tiel Cavalry has followed and been temporarily induced away. With their tracking experience, the convoy is in danger at any time. It is better to let Luo Song lead people to escort the governor and you first know the outpost." Shi Huaiyi said.
Luo Song's expression knew that he agreed with Shi Huaiyi's statement.
"Don't worry, hurry up and hurry up and believe that the soldiers who are picking up our support are almost here."
Li De comforted him when he knew that he said these words. Besides, the more he was in danger, the more calm he should be. If he left, he would not be suspected of betraying the soldiers.
Although he is the chief general, he is still an individual in the final analysis. He will not take the lives of the soldiers seriously. He will walk together and stay together.
Besides, it is not the worst plan now. They have already discussed it before leaving the military city. Five hundred cavalrymen can abandon their convoys if necessary.
Since the enemy cannot take it away, there is black gunpowder in the dark grid of each carriage. As long as these carriages are lit, they will be scrapped. It is impossible to imitate them.
The materials will naturally disperse.
Li De was not worried about safety issues. The vanguard soldier replaced the carriage house with horses and was still a cavalryman, and some important goods could be carried by the excess horses.
Although it may be those animals, it doesn’t matter after all, saving lives is the most important thing.
Shi Huaiyi saw that Li De stayed so resolutely and they didn't say much, but the important goods had begun to be carried by the horses. If the enemy appeared, they would separate the horses on the carriage as quickly as possible.
When retreating, the carriage will be ignited and may eventually cause severe damage to the enemy.
The Tiel Cavalry began with the wealth of the convoy. If they evacuate, someone would definitely want to check the cargo on the vehicle as soon as possible. At this time, the leads of the black gunpowder will burn out, and the final result will be unpredictable.
At that time, the 500 vanguard soldiers had already evacuated.
Li De was not panicked at all. When he saw the soldiers packing his luggage, he was also sorting out. Even if he wanted to take away the map he drew, there were also various materials and notes he wrote in his spare time along the way.
Put it in a leather backpack after tidying up.
"Grandmaster, the Tiel cavalry are catching up."
Li De knew that the soldiers were traveling all night and it was already sunset, and they had been waiting for two days and one night in a row. It was basically impossible to fight, so the only way was to adopt the final emergency plan.
"Okay, I get it, change the horse!"
The convoy began to prepare immediately.
When the scout of the Tiel Cavalry saw the changes in the convoy, he immediately understood that he had not returned and directly blew the strange horn.
"Governor-General, you go first, let's cover."
Li De had already replaced the horses, and the five hundred cavalrymen were ready with these large numbers of horses.
"Go together, trust me."
Shi Huaiyi and Luo Song did not hesitate when they saw Li De, the two of them surrounded Li De and began to retreat. The Tiel cavalry chased each other very quickly. Just when they were about to get to the carriage, Li De picked up the bow and arrow and lit the flames on the arrow.
Draw the bow.
Tiele's commander suddenly had a bad premonition. Li De was about to ignite the vehicle, but the fuse was in a very obvious position. With his eyesight, he could achieve his goal with one arrow.
"Why did the Tiel cavalry stop?"
Li De thought in his mind and suddenly withdrew his bow and arrow when he was about to let go.
Shi Huaiyi and Luo Song were surprised and what happened to the agreed plan.
"Our reinforcements have arrived." Li De said suddenly.
The people around them were confused. They didn't see reinforcements, so how could they know?
In fact, Li De was speculating that when he was about to ignite the fuse, the Tiel cavalry not only stopped, but their horses were abnormal and they turned around and wanted to turn around.
He didn't know much about horses, but according to Dabai, he knew that these livestock had much better perception than ordinary people. They could detect what they could not see or hear from them.
Shi Huaiyi had previously said that the Tiel Cavalry was alert and bypassed the trap.
Li De was sure that trained horses would have such abilities.
Just when a few people were surprised, they all felt a slight vibration on the earth.
A cavalry quickly appeared behind Li De, which was the reinforcements of the vanguard, and the general Li Jing led the troops.
"Prepare for the fight!"
Li De turned his horse's head, and five hundred cavalry immediately became the vanguard of reinforcements.
The five hundred cavalry did not move, but Li De's gesture had already told Li Jing what to do.
Chapter completed!
