Chapter 376 Let’s do it

The entire grain unloading work lasted until the evening of the 27th.

In the past few days, Shao Xun has been planning a marching route in the Nanyang Palace.

He had seen the canal ship. One ship carries 4,500 hu of grain. It was not small in this era, but not very big.

The key is the pattern problem, and it is impossible to stuff so many infantry and cavalry into it and take it away.

Food can make full use of space, but people cannot.

Food, equipment, soldiers and troop transporters can carry a hundred people on a ship, and it has to be transformed. After all, this is not a professional warship.

More than seventy ships were almost the only one who could take away the Silver Spear Army, and the auxiliary soldiers could not carry them.

The Yi army, the cavalry and the Liangzhou army were even worse than that, but they were the main force - the infantry to intercept the Xiongnu's retreat, which had a small effect.

If you don’t bring infantry and only load cavalry, the number will be sharply reduced.

Horses are not too honest on the boat. They often require more space and cannot bring a few people.

After thinking about it, I had to divide the troops.

Another difficult problem is that there are actually not many horses and mules in Luoyang City after a series of wars.

Shao Xun brought over more than 2,000 cavalry, with a total of less than 3,200 horses, and hundreds of mules, many of which were seized along the way.

Usually, the men lead horses and walk with the same speed as infantry...

The two thousand cavalry under Beigong Chun were not much better. The entire army fought horses and rode three thousand horses to the fore.

The cavalry had only one horse in hand, and it was even poorer.

Such cavalry is really not mobile, and its speed is limited to limited speed than infantry.

The speed of a tool like horse cannot keep up with the speed of consumption. It is really too scarce and is restricting the formulation of plans everywhere.

Shao Xun's fingers were slashing around the map, frowning and thinking.

Have to do it!

If he couldn't do it, he could only get together and bring less people, or simply change the route and let the cavalry withdraw from his action plan.

War is a very serious thing, and all you can do is make continuous choices.

It would be great to win in the ugliest way to make a choice.

As for winning in the most heart-wrenching, violent aesthetics, and heroic way, it is hard to come by. It is a blessing to have one or two times in your life - he is lucky to have a thousand-mile raid on Gou Xi.

Thinking of this, he sat down and thought about his next combat plan seriously.

While thinking, his eyes were always staring at a point on the map.

It's you.

Early in the morning of September 28, the large group of people left Luoyang.

At that time, the car array was driving on the south bank of Luoshui, with light armor shining the sun and flags covering the wilderness.

The cavalry led their horses on foot, guarding the outside of the chariot formation.

The river was empty and there was no ship.

The grain transport task has been completed, so naturally these things are no longer needed.

*******

The rain stopped on the first day of October and the sun shone brightly.

Early in the morning, Lu Zhuyan drove everyone out in anger and took out the hay to dry.

The grass has long stopped growing, and the horses eat more and use a little less.

Actually, he has ordered the horse to be fed with food recently. The reason is that the dog-good thief is here again!

The man led his troops to march along the Luoshui River. Isn't the target obvious? He headed straight to Chenggao, obviously with the idea of ​​attacking the Hulao Pass defenders on both sides.

Shanzhenxi has sent people to ask for help, and has successively withdrawn from Guancheng and moved to Chenggao County.

There is not much food and grass in the city, but supporting for one or two months is not a problem.

Can Shao Zhe wait for so long under Chenggao City? I'm afraid I can't wait.

After breakfast, Lu Zhuyan rode around on his horse.

The ground is a little muddy and soft, and the horse can't run. But the problem is not big. Today is a sunny day, and it will be almost done after it is sunny.

After dismounting, Lu Zhuyan listened to the scout's report again. After learning that Shao Xun's troops were still sixty or seventy miles away from Chenggao, he felt relieved.

This distance is fast enough to be able to walk for four days under the uninterrupted harassment of the cavalry.

What's more, they dug a lot of road surfaces and tried every means to delay the pace of the Jin army. It was normal for them to come here five or six days.

Anyway, it is only one day to delay, and the longer the better.

"Be careful!" Lu Zhuyan was immediately angry when he saw a herd slave sprinkling hay on the ground. He whipped the horse whip and hit him until he was bleeding. Then, with the persuasion of others, he kicked the man over and left.

The shepherd slave was like a general amnesty, staggering away and continuing to work.

Everyone else looked at him with sympathy and sighed.

And at this moment, several knights who were alert outside ran back, shouting while running.

Everyone looked over with confusion.

It rained last night, and the mud was soft. Is it a waste of life to run like this?

Some people with a sharp mind also reacted: This is an enemy attack!

They immediately looked at the big tent where the nobles were.

Lu Zhuyan had just entered the tent and drank some wine. When he was slightly drunk, he saw two confidants rushing in.

He glared at the sight of reprimand, but he heard the words that almost made him petrified: "A Jin cavalry rushed over."

Where did the Jin cavalry come from?

Lu Zhuyan suddenly stood up and left the big tent.

While walking, he also thought: If there were indeed Jin cavalry rushing over, then it must be Shao Xun's people, but they were surrounded by people, how can they get out? Furthermore, today the soil is soft, even if one person and two horses come over for sixty or seventy miles, it will take a day, and if the horsepower is not enough, how can we fight?

It's really ridiculous!

When he walked outside angrily, he saw a large group of cavalry swarming over two hundred steps away and rushed straight towards him.

He was stupid.

The earth was trembling. As the enemy cavalry became closer and taller, Lu Zhuyan reacted and shouted with a neighing voice: "Hurry up! Get on the horse and meet the enemy!"

The confidants scattered and went to find their respective shepherds and herdsmen, but it seemed that it was too late...

The distance of two hundred steps is coming in an instant.

When Lu Zhuyan rolled over the horse and pulled the horn bow, a thick horse spear had already rushed straight to his chest.

He subconsciously leaned on the horse's back and avoided the dangerous attack. But before he was happy, another horse spear came from the side, directly lifted him up and threw it heavily to the ground.

"Bang!" Lu Zhuyan fell to the ground unwillingly.

From the front chest to the back, a hideous wound was stained with blood and was flowing out.

Hundreds of Jin cavalry rushed into the Xianbei camp, rushing freely, and killing the enemies running on the ground happily.

Shao Xun ran up from behind, and the horn bows kept ringing.

Every time I ejaculated or two, someone always screamed and fell to the ground.

Cai Cheng tightly guarded him, and his saber slashed repeatedly, and the blood stained the ground red.

"Hurry up, go and collect the horses and don't let someone take them away." Shao Xun ordered loudly.

"No!" Cai Cheng ordered several people and asked them to pass on their own orders.

There are about thousands of Xianbei in this camp, and there are more than one-Jin slaves?

After being rushed by these five hundred riders, they were all blown up, and there were chaotic crowds everywhere.

Someone has already taken the horse and fled.

But more horses are still grazing or being enclosed in temporary fences. These horses are their primary goal and cannot be missed.

Soon, after a round of five hundred riders, they gradually began to divert the flow, and dozens of riders rushed to the Xianbei herdsland, stables, and fences.

Some Xianbei people rode horses to escape, but no one cared about him and would not leave.

Someone knelt on the ground and begged for surrender, but no one cared about him. Let’s kneel on the ground and kneel down.

If someone wants to take the horses away, it is a slaughter. If you don’t twist your head off, I’m in a good temper!

After rushing for a while, the figure of the silver spear soldiers appeared on the horizon to the west.

Shao Xun breathed a sigh of relief, this was stable!
Chapter completed!
