Chapter 184 (1/2)

On the flat road, dozens of carriages are slowly driving on the road, with sacks filled with grain.

Around the chariot were hundreds of Han Army guards, all of whom were soldiers in the logistics camp of Zhou Shen's army, who were specially responsible for escorting and transporting grain and grass.

”You're going to Kuiyuan gorge in front of you?”

”Yes, junhou. After passing Kuiyuan gorge, we can take another two days to deliver the grain to the army and have a good rest for two days.”

Wu nodded his head slowly.

However, he did not notice that on the sand dunes several miles away, a touch of yellow on the ground suddenly rose, and then ran down the hill to hold a horse.

”Drive!”

Hu Qi galloped his horse, and his horse galloped over the field. After about half an hour, the magnificent Kuiyuan gorge appeared in front of him.

”General, general!”

Hu Qi jumped off his horse and ran into Han Sui's tent with excitement and knelt down on the ground.

Han then saw his excited appearance, probably guessed it out and said with a smile, ”can you get something?”

”The general's ingenious plan is to bring up a Han Army grain transport team with nearly 100 carriages and at least 1000 or 2000 stone grain and grass.”

Han then laughed and stood up from the table.

”Follow me!”

In Kuiyuan gorge, 3000 horsemen roared out and galloped along the road. At that time, chidao was originally the highway built by Qin Shihuang in order to quickly transport troops to the north to resist Xiongnu. Today, Han Sui led 3000 Hu to gallop on the chidao, which was naturally as fast as the wind.

Three thousand Hu rode at a gallop for a while. From afar, only a long line was seen in front of them, and one after another of the carriages joined each other from the head to the end.

Han then pulled the knife out of its sheath and pointed straight ahead.

”Kill!”

Oh, roar!

Three thousand horsemen cheered, and the horses galloped on the road. They drew out their long and narrow sabers one after another, shouting loudly and clapping their horses and dancing swords at the same time.

Wu CE, the Marquis of the Han Army escorting grain and forage, was shocked. However, he was quite experienced in the army and made a decision at once.

”Leave the wagon outside, everybody, get off the horse and go inside, quick!”

If this is the Central Plains battlefield, it is generally the civilian men who escort the grain and grass. However, in the northwest where there is a lot of war horses, some slow horses are directly used to transport grain and grass. Therefore, most of the escorts are soldiers of the Han army. Although they encounter the enemy attack, they are not very flustered.

Under the command of marquis Wu CE, more than 200 Han soldiers jumped off their horses and led them into the battle. Then they piled up carriages and grain carts into a simple military formation, surrounding a small number of Han troops in the middle.

Han then did not expect that the little officer of the Han Army had some brains, so he did not directly hit him. Instead, he suddenly split into two troops from the middle, just passing by the left and right of the chariot array.
