1.39 Whereabouts of the Royal Court

Further north of Baitan is the Fengning Dam in later generations. It is located on the northern foot of Yanshan Mountain and the southern edge of the Inner Mongolia Plateau. The terrain increases in a stepped shape from southeast to northwest, and is divided into dams and connected to dams. The dam grassland belongs to Shanggu County in the Qin Dynasty and belongs to Shanggu Northland in the Western Han Dynasty. Nowadays, it is the Xianbei area. Further west is the remnants of Yinshan Mountain and Guyuan Dam.

As Liu Bei expected, if the Xianbei royal court really moved eastward along Yinshan, it would have been possible to encounter it.

The weather gradually became colder and the plants became yellower. The Baitan City was full of heat.

The latest batch of grain and grass was delivered, and the forage farm in the city was full of granaries. It was enough for 6,000 elite soldiers to need a year.

Watching the convoy return to Lu Longsai, Liu Bei stood on the bridge and looked high, feeling a little nervous. Recently, there was no small group of Xianbei heading south. It can be seen that in order to deal with the Han cavalry that were launched in three directions, the Xianbei, who claimed to be controlling the strings of 100,000, had to gather all its combat power to compete with it.

Everyone put Youbeiping County and Lu Longsai, who had been unwilling for two hundred years, to the point of being left out.

The Xianbei in the East did not see the west. Obviously, the new Liaoxi prefect was not a false reputation. Together with Qiu Liju, the king of Wuhuan in western Liaoning, he held the Xianbei in the East firmly. The deposed Danshihuai arm was abolished. Qiu Liju, the king of Wuhuan in western Liaoning, and the crowd was more than 5,000. Compared with Wuhuan in the Youbeiping, which had more than 800 fallen, the Liaoxi prefect could easily form 20,000 cavalry. The combat power was not inferior to that of Xianbei in the East.

At the end of October, although it had not snowed, the surface of the moat on the shade had already formed thin ice.

Liu Bei trained troops all day long, and his face was as usual. However, he became more and more anxious. He climbed the Qiao Tower several times a day and looked up at the north. The facilities in the city had been fully built. He sharpened his knives all day long but did not see the scouts return. Could it be that the royal court moved far away to the north of the desert and did not come to the east?

In the middle of the night, I suddenly heard a commotion outside the tent.

Wu Lian, who lives in the outer tent, drew her sword and stood up, and protected the tent with her confidant female guard. However, she heard the embroidered clothes outside the tent and reported in a deep voice: "The scout has reported urgent military information."

Liu Bei, who was lying alone in the inner tent, suddenly stood up: "Take it to the Central Army tent quickly."

"Here!"

When Liu Bei arrived at the central army's tent, Huang Zhong and other generals were already on the list.

The scout sent out was kneeling in front of the tent on one knee. Seeing him wearing a Xianbei leather robe and a lined with Lou San armor and galloping all the way, it was Shunyang Baili. Liu Bei asked: How?

The scout clasped his fists and said: Report to the young master, we found a Xianbei camp at the foot of Yinshan Mountain, or the royal court.

Liu Bei was overjoyed: Get the picture quickly.

The scout took the picture from his arms and presented it to him, and was taken over by the central guards, and slowly unfolded.

The location is on the dam. Liu Bei looked at it carefully and asked: What is the difference in this camp?

Scout Bai Li replied: This camp was moved from the west by a high tent. The caravan was wide and wide. The largest one was pulled by two rows of dozens of cattle and horses. The tent on the car was so big that it was comparable to the large tent of the central army!

A giant tent high car pulled by dozens of cows and horses is mostly where the royal court is located. Liu Bei clenched his fists heavily! After he slowly calmed down, he looked around the tent.

With all eyes, all the generals raised their chests and raised their heads, majestic and majestic.

Liu Que Zheng Ling was in his hand, paced back and forth several times, and spoke out the general order: "Wuyan, Wulian obeyed the order!"

"The last general is here!" The two of them clasped their fists at the same time. There was no father and son in front of the formation. Liu Bei was the Hu Qi Captain whom His Majesty was granted the imperial edict, and he was also the chief general of the army. Wuyan's title of "Khanlu King" was self-proclaimed, so he called himself the last general.

"Lead the elite cavalry under your command and obey the orders in front of the formation."

"Here!" The two of them received the order.

"Xu Rong, Tian Gang obeys the order!"

"The last one will be here!" The two of them clasped their fists and left.

"Lead the dragon cavalry under his command and obey the orders in front of the formation."

"Here!"

"Lu Chong."

"The last general is here." Wei Zhizheng was stationed at the throat and was about to attack Lu Longshu, so in the central army's tent, only Lu Chong was left in this tent.

"The embroidered clothing officer, Danyang Baili, the convoy of the organs, followed me to the battle."

"Here!"

Liu Bei turned his attention to Huang Zhong who was standing in front of the right: "Entertainment Father."

"The last one will be there." Huang Zhong left the list steadily.

"Teach bows, crossbows, swords and shields, spearmen, defend the city and command the generals. Those who disobey orders can be executed first and then report."

"Here!" Huang Zhong took over the handsome seal with both hands.

All of them went there were cavalry, vehicles and suspension bridges slowly fell down. Xu Rong and Tian Gang took the lead and led five hundred dragon cavalry roaring out. Wuyan and Wulian drove together, and each led their rushing cavalry to rush out of the city. Liu Bei personally led five hundred Baili Jing cavalry to the center. Lu Chong led thirty embroidered officials and protected more than a dozen carriages in the back.

The scout led the way ahead. Three thousand elite cavalry roared away.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the night wind is everywhere. There are no lights in front of you, only the sky light. It happens to be a severe drought, and the wilderness is decadent and hard. The moonlight is like a bright light. Although the night is late, the scenery around you can still be seen.

There are dry wild land all the way, and when the road encounters water, they are weak and small. There is no natural barrier to block the road. It is okay to walk at night.

Let the cold wind whistle, but it cannot blow away Liu Bei's restless flames.

I have been waiting for two months just tonight.

At dawn, the sound of horse hooves suddenly became dull and soft. The continuous forests were completely gone, and there was a yellow meadow underneath.

There were constant scouts coming and leading the way. Liu Bei asked, saying that he would go to Xianbei camp after a hundred miles.

He traveled three hundred miles a night. Even the Xianbei horses were sweating profusely. Forced driving would hurt the horse's body. Liu Bei looked around and pointed to a cloud and mist behind him, and sometimes exposed the outline of the mountain ridge, saying: Go to the back mountain to camp and feed the horses.

"Here!" The cavalry turned around and rushed to the back of the ridge, entered the forest, and set up camps to accumulate energy and restore horsepower.

Liu Bei distributed scouts widely, for fear of missing the news.

In the afternoon, another group of scouts arrived at Shanhouying Village and brought new drawing albums with them.

As Wu Lian said, there are three resources on which the Hu people depend for their survival: "water plants", "straw trees", and "salt land".

The Xianbei camp is surrounded by the lake and the village, which is a rare place with lush water and grass.

The Bashang Grassland Lake, known as the "Pearl outside the Frontier", is a unique landform formed by grasslands, rivers and lakes. It is located in the upper reaches of the Rushui River. The Russland, known as the Qu River, winds northward on the prairie, forms many tributaries and lakes, such as Shuiquan Nao, Gongji Nao, Hulun Nao, etc., forming a dense grassland river network.

There is a severe drought in the north, and only this place has lush water and grass.

It is precisely because of the nourishment of the water network that this place quickly recovers its vitality from the raging locust plague.

The place where Xianbei camped was the place where the blue waves were scattered. Later generations also called it: Baihai.

Liu Bei had a premonition. Tan Shihuai was there.

Wipe the sweat stains on the horse's back, put on a hemp blanket to keep warm. Feed the fine materials and tied them to the forest to accumulate horsepower. The knight rests on the spot, takes clean water and compresses dry food to fill the hunger, and sleeps in his armor. Disguised as scouts of Xianbei riding, patrolling around the mountains, beware of Xianbei people and horses.

In addition, all the people and horses were hidden behind the mountain. Even if the Xianbei roars south and did not bypass this mountain, it would be difficult to find the Liu Bei camp hidden behind the mountain.

"Wulian, you and Wuyan will lead your troops to ambush this mountain." The people and horses were full of food. The sunset was ten thousand, and after taking a nap, Liu Bei, who was more energetic, began to dispatch troops: "The troops were divided into two groups, with the whistle and whistle. When the Xianbei pursued the troops, they would fight out from both sides and wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop."

With close ministers around him, Wu Lian asked, "What about you?"

Liu Bei replied with a smile: "Xu Rong and I led the five hundred white virtuous cavalry, the five hundred dragon cavalry, and the mechanical convoy to rob the camp together."

Danyang is white and brave, brave and brave. The horse battle is slightly weak, but there are stirrups. If you go to the robbery camp, if you fail, you can cut off the rear.
