Chapter 62: Walking Through

The Xuanlong Army was originally lightly equipped and had a thousand more horses to carry things, so they didn't have to throw too much stuff. It took only half a day to clean up all of them. The wood used to build the barracks was just used to build rafts.

The next day, just at dawn, the entire army began to rush to the riverside. Yang Tian's personal soldiers and Li Chong led the Li family's children of more than 100 people to cross the river first, spreading for more than ten miles to prevent the Turkic scouts from discovering the army crossing the river. Although they did not expect the Turkic people to not discover the Xuanlong Army that crossed the river in the end, exposing the target too early is undoubtedly a great disadvantage to the Xuanlong Army. It is better to be discovered by the Turkic people later.

The Xuanlong Army had prepared hundreds of rafts yesterday, and one raft could only transport five people and five horses at a time. In this way, it actually took six to transport them. It took nearly an hour for the Xuanlong Army to cross the river. After crossing the river, the rafts had to untie the ropes and let the water flow rush down.

If you are lucky, the Turks would not find these rafts. Of course, if you are not lucky, you might be discovered by the Turks immediately. However, this possibility is extremely low. Now the genius is just dawn, and it is nearly thirty miles from Pinggao County. Unless the Turks camp nearby, when the Turks arrive by the river, the wood has already floated dozens of miles downstream.

The seven scouts who disappeared yesterday did not seem to have attracted the attention of the Turks or paid attention, but the Turks have not reacted yet. In short, the Xuanlong Army's crossing the river was very smooth. After the entire army crossed the river, no Turks broke into the trap set up by Zheng Xiong and Li Chong.

After crossing the river, the chance of exposure is greater, because it was already bright and there was a plain here. You can see it from a distance that Yang Tian asked his personal soldiers and Li Chong's clan soldiers to scatter five or six miles apart. Whenever he encountered Turkic people, he would intercept and kill them. Two thousand people would march and use one tenth of them as scouts. It was a luxury.

After walking for about half an hour, the scout had already heard about the enemy situation. The team of troops did not stop at all. The Li family's soldiers were familiar with the terrain, and Yang Tian's own soldiers were all trained by himself. At this time, only I believe they could handle it. The whole army rode wildly. In the afternoon, the whole army had sailed for more than fifty miles and entered the mountains.

As long as you enter the mountains, you don’t have to worry about the Turkic people chasing you. The whole army breathed a sigh of relief, and the scouts behind them gradually caught up.

Seeing that Zheng Xiong and Li Chong were covered with blood, Yang Tian quickly asked: "How is it?"

Zheng Xiong replied: "Report to the general, a total of 41 Turkic people were found, all of which were cleared."

"Are there any casualties?"

Zheng Xiong felt a little sad: "A personal soldier died, and three others were injured by arrows. However, their injuries were not serious, and one of General Li's subordinates also died."

Yang Tian felt a lot of pain. He treated every personal soldier as an officer to train him. In the future, he might become a general who led hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of troops. Although only one person was lost, it was hard for him to bear: "What is the name of the dead personal soldier?"

Zheng Xiong was cowardly and said, "General, Li Sicheng died." Although Zheng Xiong, the fifty extra personal soldiers, did not know where Yang Tian got them, he knew that Yang Tian was particularly precious to them. These people were both literary and martial, and although the Xuanlong Army was elite, he could not pick out fifty literate people in the army in the past.

Yang Tian was even more sad. The young man was only sixteen years old. Yesterday he asked him to carry the Turkic corpses to exercise his courage. Unexpectedly, he also turned into a corpse today.

Li Chong said beside him: "General, don't be sad. The personal soldier named Li Sicheng is good. He killed three Turks, a total of forty-one Turks. The general's personal soldiers eliminated 34 people, and only seven were done by the subordinates of the last general."

Yang Tian whispered: "Tell Li Sicheng's name, and after the Turks retreat, I will engrave a monument for him to commemorate it." Yang Tian felt sad. If he wanted to fight and let them grow, he would inevitably sacrifice. This time, I don't know how many of these fifty people would lose.

"Yes." Li Gang responded quickly. He also had deep feelings for these students.

The army continued to advance. After entering the mountain for several miles, the mountain road began to become difficult to walk. Everyone led the horse forward. Many places could only accommodate one person to advance. The team grew longer and longer, and the speed began to slow down.

More than 40 Turks died suddenly. The matter was a big deal. Although there was no escape, the Turks quickly noticed it. In connection with the seven people lost yesterday, all Turks no longer dared to be careless and quickly dispatched large troops to search.

Although Zheng Xiong and the others had buried the killed Turks, the time was tight, the burial was not deep, and there was a residual bloody smell. Soon the bodies of the Turks were found. They found more than 20 corpses in total. Looking at the deep bone- visible wound on the corpse, all the Turks seemed to have seen ghosts. This was clearly caused by the Zhou army, but the nearby Pinggao County was stationed in tens of thousands of Turkic troops. How dare the Zhou people plucked their teeth at the tiger's mouth?

The Turks had to continue searching, and soon discovered the traces of the Xuanlong Army. They chased them into the mountains but had to stop. The mountains here are continuous and the Turks are not familiar with the terrain. After entering the mountain, the Xuanlong Army left behind the team to pretend. The Turks could not distinguish the direction, so they had to stop searching.

Tutun, who led the team, dared not hide it, so he hurriedly reported to Shijin, and Shijin reported to Shilifa again. In this way, it was already evening when Sha Bo received the news.

"What? More than forty people were killed, who did it?" Sha Boluo almost didn't believe his ears.

The Tutun who reported to Sha Boluo said frightenedly: "Hui Xiaohan, it's Zhou army. We found traces of Zhou army march with about 2,000 troops, and they finally disappeared in the mountains."

Tutun secretly cursed his boss in his heart. Sha Boluo was furious about the 20,000 troops who were attacking Pule County in Pinggao County and others, and no one dared to tell him the bad news, so he had to find the Tutun who started reporting as a scapegoat.

"I'm so brave. I dare to kill my subordinates only two thousand people. Why don't I continue to chase after me?"
