There were only 20,000 Qi troops on Suizhou's side, and they were still panicked, but later they heard that Xiangyang City had sent reinforcements, and the army's morale was a little more stable. Romance first novel щwwlā
The commander of the Qi army in Suizhou also actively sent a horse to investigate the dynamics of the Yuejia army and contact the defeated troops in Yingzhou. In his opinion, the defeated troops in Yingzhou have 10,000 or 20,000 troops, and once these troops are gathered, Suizhou will have 60,000 troops, and he does not believe that he will not be able to stop the Yuejia army.
The troops that had been defeated from the city of Yingzhou regrouped in the southeast direction of Yingzhou under the call of a wiser general. The general believed that his troops formed a diagonal form with Suizhou, and they would definitely be able to contain the Yuejia army in Yingzhou City. The Yuejia army wants to attack Suizhou, he will sneak attack Yingzhou, the Yuejia army wants to attack him, he can fight, he can't fight, he can run, Suizhou can take the opportunity to recapture Yingzhou.
But the commander of Suizhou couldn't think of this, and forcibly ordered the army to return to Suizhou. Coupled with the fact that the morale of the defeated army was already low and there was a lack of food and grass, the soldiers wished to return to Suizhou as soon as possible, so no one was willing to follow the orders of this wiser general.
In the end, this unit that was preparing to fight guerrillas could only return to Suizhou one after another.
After exploring day and night, the Yue family's army finally figured out all the movements of the Qi army, and then reported back to Yingzhou City. After Yue Fei got the information, after analysis, he knew that Suizhou was now very strong, and if he wanted to fight hard, he was afraid that it would be difficult. Although the Junzhou and Guanghua armies were relatively weaker, they were far away, and if they sent troops to fight, the rear could not be guaranteed.
After many days of discussion and deliberation, an extremely bold plan was finally decided.
This strategy is "Ming Xiu plank road secretly crossing Chen Cang".
Yue Fei decided to create a false impression that the Qi army in Suizhou would think that the Yingzhou City side would enter preparations for a long-term battle, and then secretly transferred the troops to Guzhou in batches. Then, after gathering troops, Guzhou sent troops, directly took Junzhou, and then took the Guanghua army. As long as Junzhou and the Guanghua army could be taken, the Qi army was cut off from retreating. The army will definitely be flustered, and then Xiangyang City and Suizhou will be in the bag.
Because the attack on Junzhou and the Guanghua army had to be completed in one go, Yue Fei also put Zhou Bo's siege troops on the list of those who were transferred to Guzhou.
After Zhou Bo learned about the entire plan of the Yue family's army, he seemed to have a lot of doubts.
He felt. Yue Fei's attack on the Guanghua Army and Junzhou cut off the retreat of the Qi army, and it was indeed possible to shock the military spirit of the Qi army. But looking back and thinking about it carefully, the Qi army had no way to retreat, wouldn't that force them to hold on to their determination to die? When the time comes, the Yue family's army will attack Xiangyang City and Suizhou again. It's going to be an uphill battle.
Could it be that Yue Fei besieged Xiangyang City for two months in history, was it because of this incident?
He originally wanted to find Yue Fei to state his thoughts, but the next night he received an order to immediately pull out the camp and follow Yue Yun's army out of the city and make a detour to Guzhou.
In the end, I had to give up.
Late that night, after several days of gloomy weather, it suddenly began to rain heavily. The weather here in Xiangyang Prefecture will be like this in the summer, with thunderstorms from time to time. It is actually very difficult to march in such weather. Originally, the ancient lighting technology and communication technology were poor, and the heavy rain was pouring down, and the torches could not be lit. That is, if you can't see your fingers, once the team in front and the team behind fall far away, it is easy to get separated.
However, it is precisely because of this weather that the fine work of the Qi army will also be greatly restricted, so the Yue family army must grit its teeth and hurry.
Yue Yun had found dozens of locals in Yingzhou City earlier, they were familiar with the road, and even if they were blind in the dark, they could know the direction. He assigned them to the battalions to serve as guides, and marched in battalions to avoid scattering as much as possible.
Zhou Bo, Wang Kui, and a group of pro-soldiers were originally from Xiangyang Mansion, although they were originally from Xiangyang City. However, the terrain in this area is naturally more familiar than that of the Yue family's army. So when they marched, they were able to take care of themselves.
The heavy rain is getting heavier and heavier, and it is quite like the sky is broken.
It's hot now, and it's nothing in the rain. It's like a bath. However, steam trebuchets and repeating crossbows need to be transported by horses, and the hooves of horses sometimes get stuck in muddy water, which is a problem. In order to prevent this from happening, Zhou Bo assigned soldiers to explore the road and told them to pay attention to their feet.
Wang Kui was different from everyone else, he was excited. The heavy rain fell on my body heartily, and when I was tired of walking, I leaned my neck and drank a few sips of rainwater.
Fortunately, the ancient rainwater was not polluted by high technology, otherwise I don't know if Wang Kui would have a stomachache the next day.
"My lord, I like it to rain the most, especially the rain in my hometown!" Wang Kui ran to Zhou Bo and said with a smile.
"My hometown is still more than 100 miles away from here, and this rain is not counted. Zhou Bo wiped the rain from his face, took off the Fan Yang hat on his head, twisted the brim of the hat hard, and squeezed out the rain.
"Alas, to put it bigger, Xiangyang Mansion is our hometown. Anyway, we went to Lin'an, which was considered to be a departure from home, and now that we are back, it is not too far from our hometown. Wang Kui said hesitantly.
At this moment, the soldier who was exploring the road in front suddenly shouted: "My lord, there is someone in front." ”
Zhou Bo and Wang Kui glanced at each other.
Wang Kui touched his head and said, "It may be the soldiers of other battalions who have fallen behind." ”
Zhou Bo's troops followed closely behind Yue Yun's personal troops, and Yue Fei led the Beiwei army, but it was also divided into several battalions. The pro-soldier team was considered the first battalion, and when it set off, it was at the front, and the other battalions followed one after another. At this time, if you encounter a straggler, it can only be a soldier of Yue Yun's personal army.
"Let's go, go over and have a look. He took Wang Kui and walked forward.
When they came to the front of the procession, they saw seven or eight knights under the stumps on the side of the road, but none of them were on horseback, but only led by horses. One of the knights had a sprained leg, and his companions were gathering around to inquire about the situation.
Zhou Bo shouted: "Brother, what's wrong?"
The knight had already seen Zhou Bo's team, and they didn't make a fuss. At this time, after listening to Zhou Bo's question, a person replied: "Oh, there is a brother who sprained his leg and can't walk, so let's rest with him for a while." You can keep walking, leave us alone, and follow when you have rested!"
When Zhou Bo heard this, he didn't say anything more, and hurried to the night on a rainy day. Accidents are inevitable, and I am not Langzhong, so I can't help much. So he beckoned to continue on his way.
As he passed the knights, he took a look at them. It's just that the rain is too heavy, and it's dark under the shade of the trees, so you can see it very faintly for a while.
After the team walked over, Zhou Bo suddenly felt that something was wrong, and said suspiciously: "It's too strange." ”
On the side, Wang Kui was stunned. He asked, "My lord, what's strange?"
Zhou Bo said: "Young Marshal Yue's personal cavalry should be at the front, even if they fall behind, they will be taken by the infantry team behind!
Wang Kui scratched his head and said, "Maybe, that brother is too badly injured, so rest for a while and even walk over." ”
Zhou Bo nodded slightly, Wang Kui's words did have this possibility, but he still had doubts. said: "But Marshal Yue's pro-soldiers have red scarves on their hats, and they should be seen in the dark, when I passed by just now, I took a closer look, and these people don't seem to be wearing hats." ”
Wang Kui frowned, and after thinking about it, he still said: "Maybe the rain has wet the red towel, so it's dark." Adults are not looking away? ”
Zhou Bo felt that this matter was too suspicious, and would rather believe it than not believe it. He immediately said: "Wang Kui, go and call Li Xuzhong and Li Shuping." Bring a few brothers, let's go back and see. ”
Wang Kui didn't think much about it, and immediately went to do it.
After a while, Zhou Bo took Wang Kui, Li Shuping, Li Xuzhong and more than a dozen personal soldiers. Twisting the knife, he turned back in the rain and turned back to the original road. But when they came to the big tree, they found that the previous cavalry had disappeared. If these cavalry belonged to Yue Yun's own army, then they should rush forward after they were rested, and they met Zhou Bo and others on the way.
However, these people obviously did not move forward, which finally showed that these people were not the cavalry of Yue Yun's personal army at all!!
"Oh no!" Zhou Bo yelled.
Both Li Shuping and Li Xuzhong realized that something was wrong. The ** of those people just now is the fine work of Qi Jun.
Now that Xizuo found out that Yue Yun's troops were moving towards the secret valley state, after returning to report, the Qi army could immediately understand that the Yue family army was going to attack Junzhou and the Guanghua army. If this information is really leaked, then the entire battle plan of the Yue family army will be completely lost.
Wang Kui hurriedly asked: "What should I do, what should I do?" Those people are definitely not good birds, and the top ten are the work of Qi Jun. Straight lady thief, when did Qi Jun become so diligent, and he came to investigate after such a heavy rain! Bad thing, bad thing!"
Zhou Bo thought calmly for a while, and immediately said: "Don't worry, it's raining so hard now, it's impossible for them to run on horseback, they must not have gone far." And they lead the horses, and there will be horseshoe prints on the ground, let's follow the traces, we must kill them, and we can't let them send the information out. ”
After listening to Zhou Bo's words, everyone finally had some hope.
Zhou Bo immediately stepped forward and carefully searched the ground for the traces of the horse's hooves, the rain-soaked land, the ground was very muddy, and they had not been there for too long, and the rain had not completely washed away the traces. Soon, he found a mess of footprints and horseshoe prints, all of which had gone west into the woods.
He immediately chased after him with his men.
After chasing for about a moment, there was a sound ahead, but because the rain was too loud, the sound was drowned out a lot, and it would not be clear for a while. But this voice let Zhou Bo know that those fine works were ahead.
He quickened his pace, and the soldiers behind him also tensed their nerves.
Soon, Zhou Bo saw the figures in front of him, these people were walking quickly towards the depths of the forest, each leading the horse. It was precisely because of the horses that they were slowing down their pace.
I got a little closer, and I could hear the other party's conversation clearly.
Zhou Bo immediately shouted: "You guys stop!"
The cavalry in front were startled, and when they looked back, they saw that Zhou Bo and dozens of soldiers had surrounded him. They were taken aback, and without saying much, they quickly abandoned their horses and fled into the depths of the forest.
The reason why Zhou Bo wanted to scold was to determine whether these people were meticulous or not, and now that these people have begun to run away, it is clear that they are not good people.
"Kill, it's better not to keep one than to let one go!" Zhou Bo immediately gave an order.
Li Shuping, Li Xuzhong, Wang Kui and others rushed forward with their swords, and the other soldiers also shouted for killing.
Those meticulous workers had worked hard all day, and their bodies were already unbearable, and it happened that this section of the road was the softest and softest, and they were extremely sloppy, so they couldn't escape at all. Soon they were caught up, and they had no choice but to draw their swords and engage in battle.
However, Li Shuping, Li Xu and others are not idle people, and they just pounced on them and let go of the two fine works, and when they saw the other fine works, their morale had already been reduced by half. Soon, Song Jun and Xizuo started a more fierce struggle.
The more he fought, the weaker he became, the more he fell to the ground, the injured were injured, and he was about to be killed by Zhou Bo's side.
At this moment, there was a great thunderclap in the sky, and a bolt of lightning struck down, right in the middle of a large tree where the two sides were fighting. The tree was struck to the ground by lightning, causing confusion on both sides. Taking advantage of this emptiness, a fine work quickly turned around and ran, at the critical moment, he almost used his strength to feed, no matter how difficult it was to walk on the ground, even if he was pulled by a branch, running for his life was the most important thing now.
Because of the rain and thunder, Zhou Bo didn't see anyone running away at all, and they cut down all the remaining fine works to the ground. Wang Kui stepped forward and prepared to finish all the injuries, but Zhou Bo stopped Wang Kui's behavior first for the sake of safety.
He stepped forward and grabbed an injured thin worker, dragged him aside, and asked threateningly, "Say, who are you?"
That fine work still wants to be a hero, gritting his teeth and refusing to answer.
Zhou Bo sneered twice and shouted to Wang Kui: "Wang Kui, this guy has a hard mouth, cut off his fingers first, and cut them off one by one." If you don't say anything after cutting, you will cut off your toes. Not to mention, cut the teeth one by one. I don't believe there is such a hard-mouthed person. ”
Wang Kui's heart itched just by hearing Zhou Bo say this, but he knew that Zhou Bo was scaring this fine work, so he laughed a few times, and while touching his blade, he walked over to the fine work cooperatively.
Xizuo was half frightened to death, and quickly spoke: "We are from Suizhou to spy on the military situation of the Yue family's army. ”
Zhou Bo sneered: "Sure enough, it's a fine work." What military information have you found in the past few days?
Since he spoke, Xi Zuo also knew that the following words had to be said, so he didn't hide anything, and said: "In the past few days, I only heard that the Yue family army wants to hold Yingzhou, and I will wait to go to the rear to see if there are other troops scattered in Yingzhou, and I met you." Only then did I know that you were going to Guzhou. ”
Zhou Bo asked again, "How many of you are there?"
He replied, "Please spare your life, there are only nine of us in our team...... Don't kill me, adults...... Spare your life!"
Zhou Bo said to Wang Kui: "Look at him." ”
Then he grabbed another wounded man, dragged him to the other side, and asked the same question again. After finding out that the two people said the same thing, he was relieved and stabbed this fine work to death with a knife.
After Wang Kui saw it, he didn't hesitate and stabbed the previous fine work to death.
Zhou Bo instructed again: "Check the number of people to see if it is nine." ”
The soldiers immediately went forward to count them, but when they counted them over and over again, there were only eight of them. They searched around, but there was still no figure of the ninth man. (To be continued.) )
