The next day, both sides increased the number of scouts.
Lin Shu sent out dozens of scouting cavalry, but in less than half a day, two groups of scouting cavalry were wiped out. According to his subordinate's report, the Northern Wei army had not only increased the number of scouting cavalry, but had also combined two groups of scouting cavalry into one. This time, his scouting cavalry was at a complete disadvantage, and any scouting cavalry that encountered them would find it difficult to escape.
After hearing the report, Lin Shu was furious. He had underestimated his enemy. He didn't expect the other party to use such a method. Wu Lanxiang was indeed a rare general of the Northern Wei Dynasty. He roared,"Prepare the horses."
Lin Shu led Wei Zheng and the fifty cavalry out of the camp.
They headed north, and according to the information reported by their subordinates, they specifically searched for places where the enemy scouts often appeared. Not long after, they saw dozens of cavalry charging past from afar. When they saw them from afar, they immediately spurred their horses into the distance. It seemed that they knew that the difference in numbers was too great and wanted to escape.
Lin Shu snorted and rode his horse to chase after the fleeing scouts.
Lin Shu's Dusk Stallion was a rare horse in the army. It was very fast and soon stopped the other party. Lin Shu used the observation eye of Shura Eye to lock onto the other party and drew his bow. With a sharp whistle, the person in front of him immediately fell off his horse.
Lin Shu didn't stop at all. Arrows shot out continuously, killing several people in the blink of an eye. Seeing that they couldn't escape from the divine arrows, the others stopped running and turned around to attack Lin Shu.
Lin Shu killed two more people. The other party was already within 30 steps of him. He put down the bow in his hand, sneered, and raised his spear to kill the remaining dozen people.
Those who could be scouts were usually the elites of the army. However, Lin Shu had obtained two great skills this time. She did not need to use her unparalleled combat skills at all. She could easily kill her opponents with the help of Shura Eye and the basic equipment color domineering power.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, Lin Shu's spear tip stabbed down two people in succession. In just two rounds, two more people fell off their horses. At this time, the cavalrymen following Lin Shu also surrounded them.
In just a short moment of contact, all 20 scouts were killed. Looking at the corpses on the ground, Lin Shu sneered,""Wei Zheng, you take ten scouts and follow me to attack separately. The others will form a group and see if there are any brothers who need help.”
"Yes, Major!"
At night, Lin Shu brought his subordinates back to the tent. Today, he had led ten cavalrymen to sweep around and had gained a lot.
The Northern Wei cavalry split into groups of 20, and when they saw that there were only 10 of them, they thought that it would be another one-sided massacre. Who would have thought that they would be slaughtered by Lin Shu, and none of the Northern Wei scouts who encountered him could escape.
On this day, Lin Shu's group had killed a total of seven groups of scouts. Lin Shu alone had killed more than 70 people.
Back in the tent, Lin Shu listened to the system report. He had killed a total of 72 enemies today and obtained 720 points. After calculating, he had another 790 points. Lin Shu was not in a hurry to spend it, but planned to save it first.
In these two days, the Northern Wei army didn't seem to have made any special movements. However, at this time, both armies were already on high alert. Any slight movement would cause a chain reaction.
"Northern Wei's expedition this time is said to have 100,000 soldiers. In the battle a few days ago, they wiped out over 10,000 enemies, but they still have 90,000 soldiers left. Their overall strength still surpasses ours, and if we clash head-on, it will be disadvantageous for our army. As the saying goes, if we kill 1,000 enemies, we will suffer 800 losses.”
Lin Shu pondered. This was a boundless plain. To the east was the Qin River, to the west was the lofty mountain, and a hundred miles ahead was the Gourd Valley…
As he pondered, thoughts kept appearing in his mind, but he rejected them one by one.
The next morning, Lin Shu once again led the scouts out of the camp. This time, he didn't divide his forces to surround and kill the enemy scouts. Instead, he led fifty scouts to wander around and survey the terrain.
It was extremely difficult for the army to set up an ambush on this plain without being detected by the enemy scouts.
Lin Shu looked at the endless plains in front of her. Since it was impossible to set up an ambush on the plains, she could only think of a way from Chongshan and Qin He in the west.
Lin Shu led her men towards the direction of Chongshan Mountain.
The Chongshan Mountain was a thousand feet high, steep and difficult to climb. This kind of place was usually a dangerous place for military strategists. It was not easy to enter this kind of place when marching and fighting. Moreover, the mountain was high and steep, so they could not ambush too many people.
Lin Shu walked half a circle at the foot of the mountain. There were not many ideas in his mind. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he could only return to the camp and make plans tomorrow.
For the next few days, Lin Shu had been observing the surrounding terrain. However, on this vast plain, she could not find a suitable terrain to set up an ambush.
Lin Shu looked at Qin He and frowned. He was sure that Wu Lanxiang was also looking for an opportunity to wipe out the Red Flame Army.
The Qin River was more than ten feet wide and flowed slowly on this vast plain. The river water shone brightly under the sun. Lin Shu sighed and looked at the setting sun. It seemed that there was no harvest today.
Leaving the shore, he mounted his warhorse and led the fifty riders back.
