Chapter 144 Climbing high to explore

"Drive, drive, drive..."

Above the plains, a loud sound of urging horses sounded, and then a puff of smoke suddenly rose above the horizon in the distance.

After a few breaths, when the dust that was about to sweep up to the sky gradually dissipated, the silhouette of a team became clearer.

The strong limbs of the war horses kept moving forward, and the wheels of the chariot rolled forward rapidly. This team of more than ten chariots rolled forward with an indomitable momentum.

After the chariot under him had traveled an unknown distance, there was a sound of horse hooves hitting the ground in the distance, and then a strong figure appeared in front of the team.

"Xilulu..."

After neighing, the horse suddenly stopped moving forward. A scout on the horse's back jumped off the horse neatly and quickly came to the carriage where the Qi army's commander-in-chief Tian Shou was riding.

"General Qi, after climbing over the high slope in front of us, we can see the coalition camp." Pointing to a high slope behind him, he heard the Qi army scout report loudly.

When Tian Shou on the chariot heard the news reported by the scouts, a look of solemnity appeared on his originally calm face.

"get off."

After saying these two simple words, Tian Shou suddenly jumped off the chariot he was riding on and led a group of guards behind him towards the high slope ahead.

When Tian Shou and his party stepped onto the high slope in front of them, a series of camps in the distance composed of tents came into view.

Just at this moment, a gust of wind came from a distance, and immediately blew the flags erected on the camp in the distance high.

The red Wei flag, the green Korean flag, the white Song flag...

Different colors represent different virtues, different flags represent different countries, and the existence of these flags clearly shows that this is the camp built by the coalition forces.

His eyes slowly swept over the tents in the distance, and Tian Shou's eyes finally locked on the Wei army camp with the red flag erected.

Although the groups of Wei soldiers inside the camp could not be clearly seen, the scattered tents among them still made Tian Shou feel a little serious in his heart.

A general of the Wei army who can lay out such a tight camp must not be too bad in battle formations. The Wei army may become a strong enemy of the Qi army under his command.

As his eyes shifted slightly, Tian Shou looked at the Korean camp with a green flag next to Wei Jun.

Tian Shou also maintained a high degree of vigilance towards the Korean camp in front of him. Although it was not as strict as Wei's, it could be said to be tight on the inside and loose on the outside.

If the soldiers under Tian Shou rushed in rashly, they might be able to get out, but the losses would certainly not be small.

The 40,000 Korean troops in front of him, like the Wei army just now, may cause a lot of trouble to Tian Shou and the Qi army under his command on the battlefield.

After looking at Wei and South Korea in succession, when Tian Shou moved his eyes to the camps of Song and Lu, a heartfelt smile appeared on his face.

On the surface, the camps of Song and Lu in front may not be much different from those of Wei and Korea, but in fact they seem to be completely different.

If Tian Shou was asked to lead an army to attack the camps of Wei and South Korea, he would weigh it in his mind; but the camps of Lu and Song in front of him would not give him the slightest hesitation.

Because every problem existing in the camps of the two armies cannot be seen on ordinary days, but once encountering an enemy surprise attack, the fragile nature will immediately be revealed extremely clearly.

"The rabble is indeed a rabble."

His left hand quietly pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and he looked away from the camp in the distance. A smile full of contempt appeared on Tian Shou's face.

After this personal investigation, Tian Shou became more confident about the upcoming war.

Just as he had expected, although the coalition forces in front of him reached 130,000 troops, the number of combatable troops among them was no more than the Wei army, and the Korean army totaled 80,000 people.

As for the 20,000 troops sent by Lu and Song respectively, they seemed to be quite large in number, but their combat power was really incomparable with the Wei and Han armies in front.

The remaining 10,000 guardsmen were more like a temporary army put together by Weiguo to wave the flag and shout in response to Weiguo's call.

Soldiers are not more numerous but more skilled. This is what Tian Shou has learned from the past battles. He is also confident that he can lead his 100,000 elite Qi troops to defeat the 130,000 coalition forces in front of him.

His eyes once again swept across the camps in front of him, and after taking in the various flags fluttering in the wind one by one, Tian Shou immediately led a group of personal guards down the high slope along the road they came from.

"Let's go, I'll go back to camp."



Naturally, the coalition camp in the distance knew nothing about Tian Shou and his group's approach. A report from the scouts soon appeared in the hands of the coalition leader, Sima Gongsun Qi of Wei.

A smile appeared on his face, and he gently put away the silk book in his hand. Gongsun Qi looked at the figure of Wei Jun in front of him.

"I already know about this. Thank you for your hard work. Go down and rest first."

"Thank you Sima."

As the footsteps of this Wei army scout got farther and farther, Gongsun Qi's eyes slowly turned behind him, to the map recording the battlefield situation.

Following Gongsun Qi's line of sight, we can see that the upper right corner of Puyang on the map in front of us has been occupied by the symbol of a camp.

And this is nowhere else, it is exactly where the Qi army's 100,000-strong camp was located, as discovered by the Wei scouts sent by Gongsun Qi.

Gazing at the camp on the map, the content recorded on the silk book in his hand kept popping up in his mind, and a meaningful expression slowly emerged in Gongsun Qi's eyes.

"It came so quickly!"

Just as Gongsun Qi was standing alone in front of the map, thinking about the strategy for dealing with the Qi army, the sound of footsteps sounded outside the tent.

"Sima."

The call from outside the tent brought Gongsun Qi from thinking back to reality. He slowly retracted his eyes from the map in front of him and turned to look in the direction of the big tent curtain.

"What's the matter?"

"Informing Sima, Duke Wei personally came with some food, grass and baggage, saying that he wanted to comfort our soldiers before the war."

Hearing this news, Gongsun Qi thought for a moment and immediately ordered: "Pass my general's order to open the gates of the camp to welcome Duke Wei."

"Here."

A moment later, accompanied by the sound of horns that sounded in the Wei army camp, the Wei army general Gongsun Qi led a group of Wei army elites into the camp gate and came to welcome the King of Wei who came here, Wei Bushi.

There was a bit of anxiety in his gaze as he looked forward. When that familiar figure appeared in his field of vision, Wei Gongwei Bushi walked quickly forward.

"The last general, Gongsun Qi, pays homage to Duke Wei."

"Sima, please get up quickly." He helped Gongsun Qi in front of him to stand up. Wei Bushi said with a smile on his face: "Sima is not only an important minister of the Wei State, but also a good general in the world. His previous achievements are really impressive.

I feel deep admiration in my heart.”
