On the northern foot of the Yanshan Mountains, a team of more than 30 miles long was winding forward in the valley path.

This team is really long and long. The forward is almost rushing out of the valley in front, but the defender is still in the deep mountains.

If an ordinary scout had found such a long team, he would probably think that it was at least a hundred thousand troops.

Because even if the general team is arranged in a single row, there can be three or four hundred people within a range of one mile, and if it is nearly thirty miles long, there are at least one hundred thousand people.

In fact, this team has only 20,000 troops in total, but because there are large cavalrymen in front, it seems to be relatively dense.

As for the cavalry behind them, there were chariots, which could not be seen at first sight, including huge infantry fighting vehicles and ordinary wooden fighting vehicles.

On the top of an infantry fighting vehicle in the front, Luo Weilin, the guerrilla general of Shenwu Camp, was holding a telescope and scanning the surrounding terrain.

He glanced at the map posted on the wooden board in front, and his brows frowned slightly.

The comparison results of the terrain here and the map show that they have reached the northern edge of Yanshan Mountain. The forward should have run out of the valley and arrived at the Gobi desert north of the foothills. Why has the forward not received any reward?

To be honest, leading a large army forward in the valley is the most worrying thing, especially his team is still so long.

It winds for nearly thirty miles, and even if he has a telescope, he can't see the beginning and end!

If there is any accident, it will take at least a quarter of an hour to rush over.

This situation really makes people feel relieved. He really wants to leave this narrow valley path quickly and gather the team together.

Although the desert and Gobi ahead are desolate, there are more flat land at least. He can completely shrink his team to a few miles and move forward together. In that way, it will be much safer.

The widest part of Yanshan Mountain is only about 400 miles north and south. They ride chariots and horse-drawn cars and keep walking on the mountain roads like this, and they can travel at least about 200 miles a day. They have been traveling through the valley for almost two days. By time, they should also leave the Yanshan territory soon!

He was frowning and pondering, and finally the flag utterance came from the front, and the forward had already begun to leave the valley.

Now that I finally don’t have to hold it in this narrow valley.

He immediately ordered: "The vanguard sent a thousand fast riders to investigate the area within a radius of hundreds of miles. Anyone with the Mongols, regardless of men, women, young and old, arrest them. Remember, try not to hurt people."

This time they implemented a new tactic. They not only wanted to deal with the cavalry of the Jiannu and the Mongolian Yuan tribes, but also arrested all the herdsmen of the nomadic tribes on the grassland and moved them away.

Of course, it is unlikely that there will be herders in the Gobi desert ahead. He just let his subordinates get familiar with the new tactics in advance.

After the army left the valley, it was almost dusk. He directly found an open space in the Gobi stall, and then ordered his subordinates to spread the chariots and lined up into a square city.

This is also a brand new way to set up camps. Because there are chariots, they don’t need to set up Lanshan and Mama on the outside of the camp. They just line up the chariots in all directions, which is like a city wall, much better than Lanshan and Mamake.

They naturally practiced this method of camping countless times. They have carefully practiced how infantry fighting vehicles should be arranged and how horse-drawn carriages should be arranged.

However, it is the first time that I have set up camp like this during the march.

A wave of order flags, and infantry fighting chariots and carriages quickly spread out. In less than a quarter of an hour, the chariots and carriages formed a square formation of nearly three miles in length and width.

Luo Weilin stood at the top of the chariot and glanced around carefully, then nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered loudly: "Camp."

Soon, the doors of the chariots and carriages opened, and the soldiers skillfully moved the tents above and started camping next to the chariots and carriages.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the tent was laid out in one circle.

The distance between these camps and chariots and horse-drawn carriages is about one meter away, and it is also a square circle. There is a clearing space of about two miles in the middle of the camp.

There is no way, the place where their chariots are discharged from a single-layer defensive formation circle is so big. In order to defend closely, the tent cannot be too far away from the chariot, so a huge open space will be left in the middle.

Of course, this open space is not useless at all. It can be used for training in the school grounds. When catching ordinary herdsmen, you can also surround people in the middle to guard them.

Luo Weilin glanced around again, then ordered loudly: "Spike the horse stake."

Soon the rows of horse piles were nailed, and the war horses were lined up neatly around the camp.

Luo Weilin glanced around again, then ordered loudly: "Okay, bury the pot and make rice."

This was even faster. These veterans have been practicing the work of burying pots and making rice for several years. They are simply too skillful. In less than half a quarter of an hour, a small amount of smoke rose from the camp.

It is so convenient to set up camp like this. It is not only uniform, but also extremely safe. As long as you leave a few posts to explore the roofs of infantry fighting vehicles around you, it is really not dangerous at all.

The enemy cannot even attack because there is no door in such a square city. Even if the reconnaissance cavalry who scattered around to investigate the situation comes back, they must find their own team according to the mark, and then shout out orders outside, asking their comrades to move the carriage away before they can come in.

This camp is as safe as a city.

Moreover, the camping speed is very fast. As long as you are skilled enough, it will take no two quarters of an hour to build such a besieged city with a radius of nearly three miles!

The marching and war are really different from before.

Their weapons and equipment are simply great!

Luo Weilin sighed secretly, arranged the watchtower around him, and then climbed off the roof of the car and prepared to have a meal and rest.

The next morning, at about the morning of the morning, he climbed onto the roof of the command car and ordered loudly: "Get out of the camp and prepare to set off."

"Crash", there was a quick sound of packing up, and in less than a quarter of an hour, all the camp tents were collected into the chariots and carriages next to them.

Luo Weilin glanced at it with a telescope again, then said loudly: "On both sides of the infantry fighting chariot platoon, the carriages are in the middle, the cavalry are in front, the formation is shrinking, the target is in the west, and a thousand cavalry are spread out within a radius of hundreds of miles, and the army sets off."

Now he was able to shrink the team to about five miles long, and the wings of infantry fighting vehicles on both sides were much safer.

Their target is not the north direction, because this time the 200,000 Shenwu Camp will launch a one-line snake array with a width of nearly a thousand miles, and then push it from south to north to comb the entire Chahar grassland.

They were the first batch, and there were nine batches behind them that would penetrate the valley one after another, spreading toward the wings until they spread horizontally for about a thousand miles before they would turn together to yearn for the north.

Therefore, their target is not the north, but about 500 miles westward. They have to travel about 500 miles westward to turn north.

In the Gobi desert north of Yanshan Mountain, batches of chariots and cavalry teams slowly spread out in the east and west directions. A huge net worth more than a thousand miles long was slowly spreading. The formation was really amazing.

At this time, the Mongolian Yuan tribes on the Chahar grassland probably didn't know that they were already vaguely surrounded by the Ming army!
