After the sun rose the next day, the slowly flowing banks of the Hulu River, whether in Xiaoguanshu on the east or Baicaoyu on the west, were shrouded in a solemn and quiet atmosphere.

All the soldiers of the Tang army were ambushed everywhere according to the arrangement, and put the horse's mouth in the wooden ties prepared in advance, and lay in the deep grass on the hillside that was reaching its waist.

There are also 800 mule soldiers and their mounts hidden in the Xiaoguan barriers, beacons and Guanshi District.

On the surface, Xiaoguan and the white grass were full of peace, and birds circling comfortably among the mountains and river valleys, everything was as old as before, but secretly there was a strong murderous intent hidden.

"When the sand castle-destroying team comes, they will still cast the smoke of peace." Gao Yue whispered to the people beside him.

Half an hour, an hour, an hour and a half passed...

Gao Yue and the Tang soldiers in the entire ambush area were waiting stoically and quietly, hoping that the supply routes of the foreign soldiers who destroyed the sand castle were the same as those on the wooden slips.

Finally, Gao Yue's hand lying on the mercenary of the beacon shook violently!

In the river valley leading directly to the south, there were chaotic and huge footsteps, hooves, and the cries of livestock. They were getting closer, denser, and clearer.

"Envoy Lian, here we come!" Gao Gu, the Baicao Army's envoy, said affirmatively.

Quickly, it came into Gao Yue's eyes. There were endless teams, with horses or cattle in the middle, carrying heavy cloth bags, and they probably had food and fodder inside. Ma Chongying was able to withstand that 60,000 soldiers from Hexi could travel thousands of miles from Hexi without carrying baggage, crossing the Yellow River to attack Yanzhou, and inciting more than 100,000 people around him to be servants. However, after all, the troops still had to eat food. Now Ma Chongying was on the front line of Fangqu in Qingzhou. He was robbed on the spot or the landing of Dangxiang to provide supplies, so he could only transport supplies from Longyou and Huizhou to replenish the gukou.

The most important transit station is Wonju Sandcastle.

On both sides of the transportation team were sparse Xifan border guards supporting each other, each riding on horseback, wearing huge arrow bags and stone throwing bags, holding a horse spear in his hand, Gao Gu lies on the mercedes and counting the numbers very carefully, and told Gao Yue with certainty that there were about one hundred and fifty.

"These should be Gui." Gao Yue thought to himself.

The transportation team was also mixed with many walking soldiers, which must be mediocre, or the Helong Qiang and Hu people hired to protect them. Because they were mixed with cattle, horses and baggage, it was really difficult to point out the number.

The team walked along the valley at the foot of Liupan Mountain and gradually came to Baicao Valley. This was the only way to the north. It was also here that the transport team of sand castles stopped. The cavalrymen, who were Gui, were resting on the saddle, and the walking mediocre people sat on the side of the road, some were chewing millet and salt for cattle and horses, and shook their whips, driving them to drink water in groups by the Hulu River.

Suddenly, Gao Yue saw from a distance that a long pole raised a flag made of cloth in the middle of the team that destroyed the sand castle, shaking towards the Xiaoguan barrier on the other side of the river.

"That's right, yes, come, cast peace cigarettes on them so that they can feel at ease passing Baicaoyu." Gao Yue shouted hurriedly.

According to the regulations of Shangjiezan Mujian, every time you pass Baicaoyu, the protection team that destroys sand castles must hold a flag. At this time, the Xiaoguan barrier should burn different fireworks according to the regulations to report whether the road ahead is safe.

These group of Fanzis have made good use of the beacon lines from Central China since the Han and Tang Dynasties!

But this time Gao Yue took the trick:

On the wide ground under the beacon tower at Xiaoguan, there are a stock of bundled dry grass, and different grasses are used to send signals - the ones burned during the day are called "beacon", which are burned by sedge grass, also called chard; the ones burned at night are called "shu", which are burned by "shu", which are burned by "reed", which are also called "shu", which are burned by "reed", which are also called "shu", which are burned by "reed", which is also called "shu"; different numbers of beacon towers represent different military situations. In addition, cow dung, horse manure, sheep manure, which is ignited by wolf smoke, which means that the enemy is invading and war is about to break out, which is the most urgent alarm signal.

"Report your safety and burn three piles of sedge grass in the sun, without entering the dung arrow." The soldiers of the Baicao Army stepped forward and placed three bundles of sedge grass under the beacon tower.

Then Gao Gu waved his hand, and the soldiers on the stage lit the brazier on the marble with a fuse, then knocked it down and lit the bales of the seddenia grass under the wall. In an instant, three seddenia grass's unique color fireworks rose from the Xiaoguan barrier, which was particularly eye-catching.

Sure enough, the sand castle transport team across the river saw the flames of the syrup grass and thought it was unstoppable, so they gathered again and swaggered into Baicao Valley.

When the "tail" of this team disappeared in Baicaoyu, Gao Yue quickly waved his fist!

Gao Gu next to him immediately stood up and announced the raising of the five-color flag of our White Grass Army!

Soon, the blue tooth flag was pulled up along the high pole, and then it roamed in the wind.

At this time, many people and horses were densely erected on the old platform of Baicao Army City, including Ma Youlin's Shence Cavalry and Liu Guoguang's Jingyuan Cavalry, all of whom were black-clad and black armored, suddenly appeared in front of the Sandcastle Transportation Team - the slightly curved river valley passage passed through the vast platform.

The leading "Gui" of Xifan raised the flag tied to the spear and shouted loudly, as if conveying the signal of "the enemy attack" - cattle, sheep, and people were running around in horror, but their activity area was sandwiched by the cliffs of Liupan Mountain and the Hulu River, and could not move away, let alone the formation of resistance.

The Jingyuan cavalry took the lead. Many Tang soldiers raised their bows and pulled the strings to their ears. They roared out the rotating arrows in the midst of the rushing. The Shence cavalry were closely followed. They separated and galloped down from all over the platform, like a black rain that was coming to their faces!

In a scream, the sand castle transport team was the first to be the people and animals, and someone was immediately caught in an arrow and fell to death. "Abu, Abu!" Several armored Guimen swung their weapons, turned their horses' heads, and instructed everyone to retreat to the pass of Baicaoyu. Then the smoke and dust broke out, and the transportation team's people were crowded, and Baicaoyu ran wildly when they had arrived.

Just here, about twenty Western cavalrymen consciously formed a line of defense, crossed the road, acting as retreating soldiers and horses behind the retreating palace to block Liu Guoguang and Ma Youlin's troops who were sweeping down like a frenzy.

Are these people still trying to stop us?

The wind-like Jingyuan cavalry and Shence cavalry ran down and were greeted by Wu Duo.

A Tang cavalry in front screamed, and the sword in his hand flew backwards, and a stone was thrown on his forehead. He fell off his horse, then fell on the ground, and was jumped by countless horse hooves, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

This throwing stone was thrown by the Western Fan cavalry on the back of the horse. It should be not only the Western Fan mediocre people wearing rusts, but many regular warriors also like to use rusts more than bows and arrows.

The Tang cavalry who charged down were furious and slashed into the defense line behind the Xifan Cavalry Hall in groups. However, the Xifan cavalry was fearless and pulled out their respective swords and weapons. The two sides collided and sacrificed their lives to fight.
