"Chief Abel, the soldiers are very tired. I think we can stop and take a rest now."

Abel curled his lips, thought for a while, and then said: "Well, let's give the order to stop marching and let the soldiers take a rest."

"yes!"

After finally receiving the order to rest, the soldiers were overjoyed and hurriedly sat down on the ground, massaging their sore and aching legs and feet.

Before, they had been traveling desperately, which made them miserable. But recently, for some unknown reason, leader Abel began to slow down his marching speed, and he took more breaks, so the soldiers finally became more relaxed.

Abel has not been in a good mood recently.

Originally, according to his idea, he wanted to be the first to capture Cordoba. Currently, there are three major leaders in the rebel army: Anton, Abel, and Abt. The person with the highest prestige is Anton, so Anton

Dong Ye gradually became arrogant.

Abel has always been very unconvinced by this.

Therefore, Abel was eager to be the first to capture Cordoba, so that his prestige and achievements could surpass Anton's, and then dominate the voice of the rebels.

But now I found that the marching speed of the 10,000-strong left army under my command was far less than the marching speed of the center army led by Anton.

The distance between the two armies became wider and wider, so Abel gradually became desperate, because he began to understand that Anton, who was much faster than him, might be the first to attack Cordoba.

When he thought of this, Abel felt annoyed and depressed, but there was no way he could do it. No matter how he ordered his soldiers to speed up, they still couldn't keep up with the speed of Anton's army.

Therefore, Abel began to "give up on himself". Since he could not catch up with Anton, he stopped rushing. He slowed down the marching speed of the army and increased the number and time of rests for the army.

"Why hasn't there been any news about Anton in the past few days? Didn't they send people every now and then to tell us their current positions and tell us to speed up quickly so that our army and his middle army are not too far apart?

?" Abel asked his adjutant while drinking water.

The adjutant shook his head blankly.

"I don't know. Leader Anton has not had a messenger come to deliver the message in the past few days."

Abel sneered.

"Hmph, he must be so proud that he can't find the north now. According to the speed he is driving, he should have arrived in Cordoba. I really don't want that guy to ride on my head!"

After saying that, Abel took a few more sips of water.

...

At this time, Abel's 10,000 troops were behind him.

"General, the left army of the rebel army has finally begun to sit down and rest!" the whistle said.

"Well, it's finally time to rest. It's not in vain that we followed you for so long and finally found the most suitable time to attack." Su Cheng nodded, then turned his head to the messenger next to him.

"Give the order, let Alan prepare to lead the cavalry in the assault, and also let the captains prepare, let the infantry cooperate with the cavalry assault, and start taking action after hearing the signal."

"yes."

After a while, after learning that the orders had been conveyed, Su Cheng loaded the hand crossbow with a reverberating arrow, then raised the hand crossbow high above his head, pointed it at the sky, and pulled the trigger!

The sounding arrow flew away from the hand crossbow, making bursts of sharp sounds.

After hearing the sound of the arrow, Alan, who had been sitting on the horse with his eyes closed and concentrating, suddenly opened his eyes, pulled out the spear stuck on the ground, pulled the reins of the horse's head, and shouted:

"Come after me!"

"Oh oh oh!!!"

The cavalry behind Alan roared in unison. Alan's heroic appearance in the last battle, which was like a god descending from heaven, left a very deep impression on the cavalry. Alan now has a very high prestige in the minds of the cavalry.

Alan led the cavalry in a wedge formation and attacked the rear of the Abel army.

The five thousand-man team captains who received the attack signal also drew their swords hanging on their waists and shouted: "Come with me!!"

Then he commanded the infantry who had already formed a formation, followed the cavalry, and rushed towards the enemy's rear.

Behind the Abel army, some soldiers who were sitting on the ground resting heard the noise made by Alan and others. Not knowing why, they turned their heads blankly and looked behind them.

Not only did they hear it, but Abel, who was in the center of the army, also heard it. At this time, he was eating solid food and recovering his strength.

Abel, whose mouth was full of dry food, turned his head blankly and looked at the rear of his army after hearing the sound...

...

A few days later, the Right Army.

The soldiers of the Right Army were rushing along at a normal speed.

Abt, the leader of the right route army, wanted to take credit at first to see if he could be the first to capture Cordoba. However, after learning that the center route army led by Anton was marching much faster

After passing him, he immediately gave up the idea, let the entire army return to its normal marching speed, and no longer competed to be the first army to capture Cordoba.

Abut is not a very ambitious person, and he is self-aware and knows that his ability is not very strong. The right army has the smallest number of the three armies, with only 5,000 people. Although Cordoba's defense is

The force is not strong, but he is not sure that he can capture Cordoba with only 5,000 men.

"Chief Aibte, there is a man in ragged clothes who claims to be from Chief Anton's Central Army. He said he has important information to tell you."

"A member of the Anton Army?" Abt frowned, "Let him come over."

After finishing speaking, Abt said to a guard next to him: "Give me the order to stop the march of the whole army."

"yes!"

After a while, a man in ragged clothes, covered in mud and blood, limped in front of Abt.

Looking at the miserable man in front of him, Abt frowned even deeper and said impatiently: "I heard that you have important information to tell me? What information is it? Tell me quickly!"

"Chief Aibt!" The ragged man knelt on one knee, "I finally found the right road and direction, and successfully found you and your army! Something happened to the middle route army!"

"Something happened? What happened! Tell me quickly! What's wrong with Anton?" Abte asked quickly.

"this……"

The soldier looked at the guards surrounding Abt, then gritted his teeth and said:

"Chief Aibt, this information cannot be told in public, as it will cause panic in the Right Army. I can only tell you!"

After hearing what the soldier said, Abt frowned again. After thinking for a while, he got off his horse and came to the side of the soldier. He endured the stench emanating from the soldier and leaned down to

He raised his ear to the soldier.

"Tell me what information it is."

The soldier quickly put his lips to Abt's ear and whispered a few words.

After hearing what the soldier said, Abt's expression changed drastically.

He suddenly grabbed the soldier's shoulders and said in a deep voice: "Are you telling the truth? Anton's middle route army has..."

The soldier nodded hard.

"Yes, everything my subordinates said is true. The Central Route Army has..."

After speaking, the soldier choked up.

Abt was silent for a while and patted the soldier on the shoulder.

"You did a great job. It's really hard for you. You were able to find our right route army alone. This information of yours is very important to me. Thank you for your hard work. Looking at you, you haven't been there for a while.

Have you eaten normal food?"

After that, Abt turned his head and said to one of his soldiers: "Take this warrior down to rest! Prepare some food and water for him!"

"clear!"

After watching his guards take away the warrior who had gone through so much trouble to pass on the information, Abt got back on his horse.

"Chief? What's wrong?" a guard asked Abt.

"Stop making noise!!" Abt yelled rudely.

"Yes, yes!"

Abut looked at the surrounding terrain with a calm face.

Finally, his sight was fixed on a small hill.

"Send the order! Let the whole army march towards that hill!" Abt pointed at the hill, "We will set up fortifications on that hill! Build that hill as quickly as possible

Become a simple fortress!

"Chief, why do you need to go to that hill to set up defenses? Are we not going to Cordoba?"
