Rumble!!!
The sound of horse hooves was like thunder.
The violent tremors echoed in the air, and smoke and dust rose into the sky. It was as if a gust of wind was sweeping across the ground.
This was the 3,000 soldiers led by Mordor.
Moledo led the army to rush over. They were extremely fast and did not delay at all.
In less than half a day, the army led by him was about to reach the border between Fushan County and Yongye County.
Mordor was full of fighting spirit.
He wanted to win.
He wanted to defeat his opponent completely in one go.
He wanted to win this battle beautifully and show the glory of Xia Xia's army.
Although Mordor had made a military order and agreed to three days, in reality, he did not want it to be just three days. He wanted to complete this task in a shorter time.
This was Mordor's style.
Mordor was full of fighting spirit. He wanted to defeat the army of Yongye County. He did not even take the army of Yongye County seriously. However, Mordor was not careless about the specific arrangements. He took this battle very seriously.
Before sending out his troops, he had already sent out scouts ahead of time.
First, he sent out scouts to find out the movements of Yongye County. He wanted to know if Yongye County would leave the city and fight or stay in the county and wait for the army to arrive.
Second, he sent out scouts to find out the terrain along the way. On the battlefield, the terrain was also an extremely important factor. Only by finding out the details would one not be blinded.
This was Mordor's arrangement.
He was a big and burly man.
However, it did not mean that Mordor was stupid and did not know anything.
After following Du Qi for so many years, even if he did not know anything at the beginning, he should have understood by now.
"Report!"
Just as the army was rushing forward, a scout rushed back from the front.
It was the sentry who had returned first.
The scout came to Mordor and reported, "General Mordor, we found traces of Yongye County. County Magistrate Zeng Cheng personally led 5,000 soldiers to the border between Fushan County and Yongye County. The enemy's forces are stronger than ours. Their weapons are similar to ours. They are all equipped with cannons. "
Mordor nodded and said, "How long will it take for them to reach the border?"
The scout said, "At most, four hours."
Mordor said, "How long will it take for us to reach the border?"
The sentry was well aware of this. Without any hesitation, he said, "We are already very close to the border. Based on our current speed, we will reach the border in at most an hour."
Mordor fell into deep thought.
After a while, he asked, "When we reach the border, are there any suitable places for us to ambush?"
"Yes!"
The scout answered directly.
The sentries were all experienced soldiers on the battlefield. This was especially true for the sentries who had followed Du Qi on many expeditions. His eyes were sharp as he reported, "General Mordor, after we reach the border, we will reach a ravine about five miles in the direction of Yongye County."
"This is a place where the official road must pass through. There are hills formed by gravel on both sides. There are no trees or weeds, but it is a good place for the soldiers to hide."
"At the bottom of the hills is a ravine."
"This area is about 100 feet wide. It is very open."
"Although it is only 100 feet wide, it is very open and can allow the army to enter and exit. However, at least this area is good for us to ambush the soldiers of Yongye County. "
The scout said, "General Mordor, I suggest that we choose this place as the location of the battle. As long as we attack the enemy with cannons, then the cavalry will charge. In the end, we will definitely be victorious. Especially since we have 3000 elites. We will be able to crush the enemy in one go. "
Mordor nodded. He waved his hand and said, "Got it. Continue scouting!"
"Yes!"
The scout did not say anything else. He turned around and went to make the arrangements.
After the scout left, Mordor looked at Luo Binwang beside him and said, "Luo Binwang, what do you think?"
Luo Binwang said, "No problem. We can fight."
Mordor looked at Yan Three and Liu Che. He asked them about it and got the same answer.
They were the ones who entered the ambush first.
Then, they would start the battle.
Mordor saw that everyone had the same opinion and did not say anything else. He immediately ordered them to carry out the plan mentioned by the scout. However, the army continued to move forward. When they reached the border, Moledo did not stop. Instead, he led the army forward until they reached a gully where they could set up an ambush. Then, he quickly set up an ambush with artillery.
The cannons were all in position.
All the cavalrymen quickly hid themselves nearby.
Although there were no trees or grass in the gravel area, there were trees and grass at the foot of the mountain. This area could be used for hiding.
After the army set up the ambush, Mordor hid and waited quietly.
Yan Three also squatted beside Mordor.
He had always been in the army.
He was quite familiar with Mordor. After all, they had interacted with each other on a daily basis.
Yan Three suddenly said, "General Mordor, I have a question that has been bothering me for a long time. Can you enlighten me?"
Mordor said, "Speak!"
Yan Three said, "I was chatting with my brothers and one of them mentioned that Young Master's identity was not simple. He was once the emperor of Xia Xia. After that, Young Master passed the throne to his son and became the emperor. After that, he came to Great Qin to expand its territory. "
Mordor smiled and said, "You want to know if this is true?"
Yan Three snickered.
Mordor said, "It's true. Young Master is indeed the founder of Xia Xia. After that, Young Master did not lust after power. He brought his men to Great Qin and continued to expand its territory. Now, Xia Xia's territory is so vast that it far exceeds Great Qin's territory. After conquering Great Qin, Xia Xia's foundation will be even stronger and its territory will be even more vast. "
Yan Three was certain.
He stopped talking.
At this moment, Yan Three was even more confident in Du Qi.
No wonder people said that Du Qi was so powerful.
He was the founder of Xia Xia.
Mordor looked at Yan Three and said, "It's good that you know about this. Young Master has never announced this to the public. If the news is leaked, you should know the consequences. "
Yan Three promised, "General Mordor, don't worry. I understand."
Mordor nodded.
He stopped talking.
Yan Three also obediently squatted beside Mordor and waited quietly.
Not long after, a scout came to Moledo's side and reported that the army led by Ceng Cheng was already close to the area where they were ambushing.
