Battlefield of All Sides

Chapter 15 Trekking Long Distance (Please recommend a ticket)

Another battle of Li Mu on the Western Han battlefield has just passed away, and Li Mu now knows who the troops he is fighting are. The man was killed by the Han cavalry, and the rest fled to the desert in the north.

That night, the troops finally got rested after marching for three or four miles. Although the troops were exhausted, they won the battle and received news from Shan Yu for the first time in the desert. So overall, they were very happy. At least Li Mu Seeing that many soldiers are still singing and dancing around the bonfire after the fierce battle, all of them are very excited.

Li Mu's performance today is obvious to all. Although his status was embarrassing before, he was recognized by everyone at the moment and invited to it. However, Li Mu really didn't know these things, so he just sat next to Wu San and listened to him. Talk to Chen Junhou about today's battle.

But what they said was not esoteric. It was probably that when the team was charging, the troops behind couldn't keep up, so they were surrounded.Or those Xiongnu's arrow skills are precise, if they knew that they should not leave the infantry and advance quickly, with those infantry crossbows and bed crossbows together, they would have shot those Huns to death on the ground, etc.

While eating, Li Mu listened to the two of them chatting, but he found that Chen Junhou seemed to be very proficient in the art of war, and he often refuted some superficial statements of Wu San, and gave some examples of previous wars, especially when listening When Chen Junhou talked about Sun Bin's art of war, Li Mu's expression suddenly changed. Chen Junhou had actually seen this famous art of war, and he said it clearly and logically. It seemed that he was definitely not an ordinary person.

So Li Mu took advantage of the gap between the two of them chatting and quickly asked, "Grandpa, where is Chen Junhou from?"

Wu San threw a piece of meat into his mouth, then turned to look at Li Mu, then glanced at Chen Junhou, and sneered: "Chen Junhou is from Chang'an, and he often brags that he is a descendant of a high family."

As soon as Li Mu heard this, his expression became clear. Sure enough, this Chen Junhou was not simple, and he spoke and acted with a streamlined energy. He quickly stretched his head to look over, and looked at Chen Junhou with a smile.

Chen Junhou and Li Mu looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths curled up, but they seemed to be a little disgusted by this question. They shook their heads and looked at Li Mu, and said while chewing the meat.

"Li He, don't be envious either. I wish I could be an honest citizen like your grandfather, and live a more stable life."

"Then which wealthy family is Chen Junhou?" Li Mu asked, but Chen Junhou seemed to have not heard, looking straight ahead, looking at the grass in the distance, chewing something, laughing He said twice, but did not reply to Li Mu's words.

Li Mu pursed his lips. Although he was still a little curious, Chen Junhou didn't want to say anything, and he didn't dare to ask any more.

On the other hand, Wu San looked indifferent, and immediately said with a smile: "There is nothing to say. If you are willing in the future, Chen Junhou, you can just follow us after the war. You can also buy a few acres of land in our village and plant it in our house." Next to you, you are not too old, you can still ask for a daughter-in-law."

"I think it's your old Wu who is in a hurry to find a wife."

Chen Junhou looked at Wu San, who was in a mess, and retorted angrily. The two looked at each other and laughed again. Wu San even touched each other with the water bag.

In the end, Li Mu didn't know about Chen Junhou's past, and he didn't know about the affairs of the Han family clan at that time, but he just felt that Chen Junhou must have had an experience that he didn't want to look back on.

The night in the grassland was very long, people were exhausted, and Li Mu didn't talk to those people after eating, but went back to the camp alone to rest.

In the dream, I was riding a horse and following the cavalry, and suddenly found that I was holding a big flag that was flying straight into the sky in my hand, and suddenly there was a voice from behind, Li Mu turned his head to look, but saw Wu Sanzheng rode the horse, with empty hands, told himself that the boy should hold the flag well, and then rode away towards the distance behind Li Mu.

When he turned his head around, several ghost-like Huns in front of him jumped up from their horses, pushed themselves down to the ground, and raised their scimitars high.

Li Mu woke up suddenly, but Wu San's voice came from beside him, Li Mu looked over quickly, but saw that Wu San was already fully dressed, and was urging himself at the moment.

"Silly boy, get up quickly, the troops are about to move out!"

Li Mu responded repeatedly, still a little sleepy, put on the armor, packed the rest of the things, and opened the tent, but found that the sky outside the tent was still full of stars, and immediately looked at the same thing packed up in surprise. Wu San said.

"Grandpa, it's still not bright outside here."

Wu San nodded, knowingly pulling Li Mu out.

"Don't worry, it will be dawn soon. It doesn't matter if you have a bird blindfolded. Follow the white flag, and it will be dawn after a while."

Li Mu listened to Wu San's words, but didn't say anything. He went out with him, and found that the whole camp was noisy, and the sound of armor clashing was continuous.

"The scouts have found the traces of Shan Yu's army. General Huo told us to follow up as soon as possible. The road ahead is long, so don't lose the water bag." Wu San helped Li Mu lead the horse over, and After Ma An waited for the things to be put away, he gave Li Mu a few words to Sun Gouzi, and hurriedly walked towards the Chinese army.

"Grandpa..." Li Mu looked at the rickety figure of the other party who was about to leave and shouted. Wu San turned around and asked Li Mu what was wrong.

Li Mu opened his mouth, always thinking about the scene in his dream just now, but he scratched his head and didn't speak.

"You idiot, remember, catch up later, this time you get separated from grandpa again, I will definitely send you back, do you hear me!" Seeing that Li Mu didn't speak, Wu San glared sharply. Seeing Li Mu said, Li Mu nodded, Wu San also turned his head and left quickly.

The troops set off soon after, and although it was still dark, there was even a chill. Li Mu guessed that it was about early morning, and the sky was so dark that it would be dawn soon.

The huge cavalry team finished finishing in the dark night. With the sound of drums, Li Mu looked forward and saw a few white flags among some scattered torches, and hurriedly urged the horses to follow.

Li Mu followed this black cavalry team forward in the dark, and he didn't know how far he had traveled. When the sky gradually brightened, the horse team stopped by a small river, and gave the horses some refined grains, and the soldiers also ate. After a eclipse, the troops set out again.

This walk was a day, and the surrounding scenery also began to change, from the previous grassland to barren grassland, and at this time, a very wide river was encountered on the road. The troops came down to drink horses, and Li Mu also knew about this road. The name of the river, Gonglu River.

Li Mu didn't know exactly where he was now, but the surrounding scenery began to change rapidly, and the barren grassland gradually changed to the Gobi. On the way, he passed a section of desert, and the endless grassland began to layer upon layer, and the terrain began to undulate. The hundred-meter mountain peaks gradually appeared, and the surrounding area was already a desert scene.

The journey was difficult and long. The turbulence during the day made the horses and soldiers very sleepy. At night, the troops were repaired a little, and they continued to move forward before dawn. Finally seeing a continuous hill, the whole team camped there.

Li Mu didn't know where this place was, and wanted to ask Grandpa, but in the past two days, except for a few words at night, he could hardly talk to him the rest of the time. As they marched forward, the quiet atmosphere became more and more intense. Even when the people around were marching, their expressions were tense, and Li Mu had already rested without taking off his armor like them, and would wake up when there was any disturbance.

The surrounding environment and people's atmosphere changed, and Li Mu also understood that this was advancing more and more, and it might be that he was about to fight the enemy, which was why he was so dull at this moment.

His system task bar has already gone halfway, and there are still more than 1 people. Li Mu reckons that as long as he takes down another tribe like last time, it will be enough, but he doesn't know how the Han army will fight again. How many people died.

Li Mu looked around, and suddenly felt that he was a little hungry, but it was only noon now, and the next meal would be at dusk. Li Mu thought he still had half a piece of wheat cake on him, so he took it out and took a few bites. I went to touch the water bag again, but found that there was not much water left, so I sighed and decided to continue nibbling on the wheat cake. At this time, a big horse head turned sideways and ate half of the wheat cake in one bite.

Touching the crumbs in his mouth, Li Mu looked at his horse in astonishment, then looked at the crumbs in his hand, threw them on the ground, took two sips from the water bag, the big cheeks were still The chewing horse also pushed forward, with its mouth stretched out enough to reach the water bladder.

Li Mu fiddled with the other party and stretched it out again. Li Mu took a sip from the cork and gave the horse the rest.

In this place, horses are more important than soldiers.

After giving the horse a few sips, Li Mu quickly put away the almost empty water bag and mumbled to loosen the horse's bridle, but the horn suddenly sounded.

The beating of drums also sounded in a hurry at the next moment. Li Mu, who had been in the army for a few days, knew that this was an order for emergency assembly, so he stood up immediately, packed his things and got on his horse.

The surrounding people also got on their horses and assembled one after another. After a while, Li Mu knew what was going on through the orders passed down from the surrounding soldiers.

The Huns' large army is in front, and the whole army is ready to attack.
