Soon, Yun Zheng saw the Eighteen Ghost Riders.
The two injured people have been taken away for treatment.
The remaining sixteen people were eating voraciously in the tent, obviously very hungry.
Seeing Yun Zheng enter the tent, everyone hurriedly put down their food and stood up.
"Eat your own food, and don't worry about me!"
Yun Zheng stopped the people who were about to salute and said, "Eat first, then talk!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone answered in unison and then continued eating.
Knowing that Yun Zheng had something to ask them, they ate extra fast.
"My Lord, I'm full!"
...
...
Youyi took a sip of hot water and stood up first.
From the beginning of their training, Yun Zheng asked them to forget their names and identities.
All they have left are code names.
From You One to You Eighteen.
"good!"
Yun Zheng nodded slightly and asked You Yi to sit aside. "Tell me in detail about your trip!"
"yes!"
You Yi did not dare to be negligent and immediately recounted in detail their experiences over the past few days.
They followed Yun Zheng's request, crossed the Baishui River and sneaked into the territory of Beihuan. Since then, they have been searching everywhere in Beihuan for small groups of Beihuan cavalry.
However, their luck was not good at the beginning. Bei Huan on the other side of the river was gathering a large number of troops, and the team was so long that they had no chance of catching them.
After that, they kept lurking, looking for opportunities.
The day before yesterday, they finally encountered a cavalry squad consisting of fifty riders.
Although the enemy had the advantage in numbers, they were able to defeat the Beihuan cavalry squad by taking the initiative to launch a sneak attack and their own skills, and successfully captured several tongues alive.
By interrogating the tongue, they obtained the information they wanted.
Afterwards, they took away all the corpses and war horses according to Yun Zheng’s prior request.
After arriving at the Baishui River, they drove the horses carrying the corpses onto the frozen Baishui River.
They originally thought that it would be better if they could bring the war horses back.
If we cannot bring it back, let the war horses test the thickness of the ice in the Baishui River and destroy the body in the process.
Unfortunately, the ice on the Baishui River is still not thick enough.
Finally, the war horses and their corpses sank into the Baishui River.
After finding out what happened, Yun Zheng immediately asked, "Where is Beihuan's army gathering?"
"Everyone is gathering in Sanbian City!"
Youyi immediately replied: "According to the information we obtained from interrogating Tongue, Beihuan will feint to attack Tianhu City on our right wing, and then send 20,000 elite cavalry to attack Shuofang from Langya Pass in the northwest of Shuofang..."
"Langya Pass?"
Yun Zheng frowned slightly.
"Your Highness, is there a problem?"
Du Guiyuan asked doubtfully.
"Um……"
Yun Zheng groaned for a moment, "It's a little different from what I thought before, I need to think about it again!"
Langya Pass is located in the upper reaches of Baishui River.
Although Yu Shizhong had previously judged that Beihuan would launch a surprise attack across the Baishui River from Langya Pass, he always felt that something was not right.
But for the moment, he didn't know what was wrong.
After learning the situation in detail from You Yi, Yun Zheng asked Du Guiyuan to arrange for them to rest, while he returned to the tent to check the map.
They had previously anticipated that there were two points where Beihuan would cross the Baishui River.
The first point is Langya Pass upstream.
The second point is the area around the Rift Valley downstream.
The Liefeng Gorge is located between Shuofang and Suiningwei.
In comparison, it seems more reasonable for Beihuan to launch a sneak attack from the Langya Mountain Pass area.
But Yun Zheng still felt something was wrong.
Just as Yun Zheng was deep in thought, Chen Luoyan and Miaoyin walked into the tent.
"Which of you won?"
Yun Zheng raised his head and looked at the two women, asking with interest.
"Draw."
Miaoyin smiled.
"fart!"
Shen Luoyan refused to accept the defeat, "You obviously lost! If you don't stop, you will lose soon!"
Miaoyin shook her head slightly and said seriously, "I'm afraid of having a miscarriage."
Fetal gas?
Yun Zheng's face was filled with black lines.
She's not even pregnant, so where did the fetal gas come from?
By the way, this girl Shen Luoyan is quite fierce!
Can he actually beat Miaoyin?
Chen Luoyan had no idea that Miaoyin was not pregnant.
After hearing Miaoyin say this, I was speechless.
Yun Zheng smiled at the two women and continued to study the map.
"What are you doing staring at this map all day long?"
Shen Luoyan snorted, "Do you think you can win the battle just by looking at the map a few more times?"
"My people have returned with news."
Yun Zheng said without even looking up: "According to their intelligence, Beihuan will feint to attack Tianhu Lake, and then send 20,000 elite cavalry to attack Shuofang from Langya Pass..."
"What?"
Shen Luoyan's expression changed and she no longer cared about arguing with Yun Zheng. She quickly moved closer to Yun Zheng and started to check the map.
Yun Zheng has already marked Langya Pass and Riftwind Canyon on the map.
Shen Luoyan saw the Langya Pass at a glance.
"Just as I thought!"
Shen Luoyan said excitedly: "Let's set up an ambush at Langya Pass and catch them off guard!"
Twenty thousand elite cavalry are not really a lot.
If we set an ambush in advance, we can definitely wipe out these 20,000 elite cavalry!
"I don't think it's right."
Yun Zheng frowned and said, "If it were me, I would cross the Baishui River from the Riftwind Canyon..."
"How is that possible!"
Chen Luoyan rolled his eyes at him, "They only have 20,000 elite cavalry. Once they enter from the Riftwind Gorge, if we block them, they will be attacked by the three armies from Shuofang, Suiningwei and Dingbei! Entering from the Riftwind Gorge is obviously seeking death!"
"No!"
Yun Zheng shook his head and said, "The Beihuan's goal should be to mobilize our troops and seek an opportunity to annihilate us in the wild! Entering from the Riftwind Canyon will better achieve their goal!"
Shen Luoyan paused for a moment, frowned and said, "That's what you said, but they only have 20,000 troops. Aren't they afraid of being attacked from three sides by us?"
Even if 20,000 elite cavalrymen were the most elite, they would be annihilated if they were attacked from three sides.
If Beihuan wants to eat their men, he should also check the strength of his own teeth!
Yun Zheng said nothing and continued to stare at the map.
What Shen Luoyan said is not without reason.
But the prerequisite is that they have to defend Shuofang!
If they transferred all their main forces to set up an ambush at Langya Pass and were ambushed by Beihuan, or if Beihuan cavalry directly attacked Langya Pass from Liefeng Gorge and cut off their retreat, that would be a different matter.
He felt that it was more likely that Bei Huan wanted to cut off their retreat and block them at the Langya Mountain Pass.
In this case, Wei Wenzhong will definitely send troops to rescue!
Beihuan can take the opportunity to consume the strength of the Beifu Army!
If worst comes to worst, you can catch me and negotiate with Da Gan!
Listening to Yun Zheng's analysis, Shen Luoyan couldn't help but frowned, "Your idea is not impossible, but the premise is that Beihuan needs to avoid the cavalry of Suining Guards patrolling the Riftwind Canyon, right? If they are discovered as soon as they arrive, there will be no way to fight!"
"yes!"
Yun Zheng nodded. "If we are discovered, we can retreat! If we are not discovered, we can successfully outflank our retreat!"
"this……"
Shen Luoyan paused slightly and was speechless for a moment.
yes!
If the situation gets bad, Beihuan can run!
They are cavalry!
If they really start running, it is still a question whether the Northern Army dares to chase them!
Even if you dare to chase, you may not be able to catch up!
Just as Shen Luoyan was thinking hard, Yun Zheng suddenly slapped his head and laughed as if he had suddenly realized something: "Beihuan must have crossed the Baishui River from the Liefeng Gorge!"
"Um?"
The two women looked at Yun Zheng in surprise at the same time...
