Chapter 591: Taunt Failure
"Oh!"
Yuan Chang raised his eyebrows, but he was a little curious about what strategy Guo Jia had thought of. When Yuan Chang and them discussed before, they wanted to show the enemy weakness first, so that the other party thought that they were afraid, and then the reinforcements from several other small countries would not stop supporting. Wait until all the reinforcements have arrived, and then destroy them in one fell swoop. Now, Guo Jia has a strategy, obviously improving their previous countermeasures, Yuan Chang naturally does not doubt the feasibility of Guo Jia's strategy, but is just curious.
"What is the good plan of the military advisor, let's hear it!"
Guo Jia smiled confidently and said unhurriedly: "Today, our army's strategy of showing the enemy weakness has been successfully implemented, and, according to the news reported in detail, the chief general of Goguryeo's reinforcement army Nanwofu has also been decided. As for Gao Jianchang, the chief general of Goguryeo, there seems to be some doubts. Therefore, we must do some more actions to dispel Gao Jianchang's doubts and convince him that our army is really afraid of them. The alien races all think that our Central Plains are good at using tricks, and in this case, it is better to send the elite out of the city to attack the camp tonight. ”
Listening to Guo Jia's words, Yuan Chang was suddenly stunned.
In the hearts of aliens, the Central Plains people have always been scheming. If you don't use any strategy, it will make the other party confused, so that you can see through their intentions. According to Guo Jia's meaning, that is to use stratagem to make the other party think that they can't fight head-on, but in terms of stratagem, they are not opponents. When they are overwhelmed, they will be even more hungry for reinforcements. In this way, Yuan Chang's goal was achieved.
"The military advisor is very good, what does Commander Tai Shi Ci think?"
Although Yuan Chang agreed with Guo Jia's strategy, he did not make a decision. After all, the commander in the army is Tai Shi Ci, and whether to adopt this strategy or not is still up to Tai Shi Ci to decide, in order to ensure Tai Shi Ci's prestige in the army.
"The subordinates also think that the military advisor's plan is feasible, but I don't know the lord, who should be sent to command the troops to complete this task?"
Of course, as the coach, Tai Shici wants to let someone carry out the task, he can naturally decide directly, without asking Yuan Chang. However, Dian Wei has been flattering him, so that Tai Shici can't stand it anymore. If you don't hand over this task to Dian Wei, with Dian Wei's character, you may not know how to be tortured by him afterwards. Therefore, Tai Shici also simply threw this problem to Yuan Chang.
"Hmm..."
Yuan Chang was about to speak, but he felt that his sleeve was pulled, and then he saw Dian Wei Baba looking at him, a big man with five big and three thick eyes flattering at him, coquettish, thinking about that situation is unbearable. So, Yuan Chang made a decision directly.
"Commander Dian Wei is so self-volunteering, this task will be entrusted to Commander Dian Wei to carry out. ”
Yuan Chang said angrily, and then his face turned straight and explained solemnly: "However, Commander Dian Wei, there is one thing you have to remember. This time the battle is just to harass the enemy army, and you can kill a small number of enemies, and you must not kill more. Otherwise, once you scare the enemy away, the consequences, you know, hehe!"
Seeing Yuan Chang's gloomy gaze, Dian Wei felt a thrill in his heart, stood up straight, and said with the same seriousness: "Lord, his subordinates must obey the order to complete the task, otherwise, come and see you!"
Seeing that Dian Wei understood what he meant, Yuan Chang didn't say anything more.
On the other side, in Gao Jianchang's tent.
When Tai Shici retreated, Gao Jianchang was confused and didn't think too much. However, after returning to his military camp, Gao Jianchang began to think. When Tai Shi Ci's army first arrived, he had a battle with Tai Shi Ci, and the result was naturally heavy losses, and Gao Jianchang also had an understanding of the combat power of the soldiers in Youzhou. And in today's battle, Tai Shici retreated directly before the battle, which is obviously a very abnormal thing. Therefore, after thinking for a while, Gao Jianchang asked his cronies to invite Walton to his camp for discussion.
"General Walton, General Ben thinks that the enemy's actions today are somewhat unusual. After Walton sat down, Gao Jianchang said with a serious face.
"Oh!"
However, in the face of Gao Jianchang's reminder, Walton didn't care at all, and responded lightly, and then said: "What's unusual? The enemy general saw the strength of my Wo Frustrated warriors, and was frightened and didn't dare to fight, this is a very normal thing, nothing special, General Gao shouldn't think about it so much." ”
Gao Jianchang listened to Walton's words and almost vomited blood. It's just that the behavior of Youzhou is unusual now, and Nanwofu is the reinforcement they invited, although Goguryeo has bad intentions towards Nanwofu, but that is also a matter of later. Now, they have to face a common enemy-Youzhou, so Gao Jianchang quickly calmed down his excitement, suppressed his anger, and carefully explained to Walton.
"General Walton, don't be careless. The combat power of the Youzhou Army has been seen by General Ben, and it is by no means idle. General Ben had a battle with him, and the losses were not small, so..."
"Stop!"
It's just that before Gao Jianchang finished speaking, Walton impatiently interrupted Gao Jianchang's words and said arrogantly: "General Gao, you have suffered heavy losses, and it is also because your Goguryeo soldiers are too weak. If we run into our warriors, it will only be them, not my warriors. As long as the soldiers and horses of Youzhou dare to go out of the city to fight, General Ben will definitely let them know how powerful my warriors are. ”
Well, in the face of such an arrogant Walton, Gao Jianchang knew that it was useless to say anything. Since Walton was so arrogant, he didn't say anything more. When Walton suffers, he will pay for what he says at the moment.
"Since General Walton is so confident, then General Ben will not say more, and wish General Walton a victory!"
Gao Jianchang said coldly, and then the meeting broke up unhappily. After sending Walton away, Gao Jianchang pondered again, the soldiers and horses in Youzhou are definitely not weak, and they will be afraid of the soldiers of Nanwo, Gao Jianchang will not believe it at all. Although it is said that the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of Nanwofu is indeed good, Gao Jianchang also believes that the soldiers of Goguryeo are not as good as the soldiers of Nanwofu. However, it is not much stronger. When he fought with Tai Shici before, Gao Jianchang had seen the power of Youzhou's soldiers and horses, not to mention the strong combat power, even the weapons and armor were very sophisticated, often their weapons could not pierce the opponent's armor, and the opponent's weapons, cutting them was as easy as cutting tofu. Therefore, Gao Jianchang knew very well in his heart that Tai Shici's sudden withdrawal of troops today must have some scheme.
Thinking of this, the construction seemed to have a reaction, and hurriedly called the soldiers of his cronies and asked them to strengthen their vigilance and be careful of the sneak attack of the soldiers and horses in Youzhou. As for Walton's side, Gao Jianchang didn't remind him, and he wouldn't know what the pain was until he lost some soldiers and horses. When the time comes, it may be easier to communicate.
That night, Benxi City quietly opened, and one by one the figures cautiously walked out of the side door, and it took half an hour for all of them to come out, with about 10,000 people.
Of the 10,000 soldiers and horses, 5,000 were led by General Dian Wei to attack the military camp in Goguryeo, and the other 5,000 soldiers and horses were led by Ma Tong, the commander of the division under Tai Shi Ci, to attack the military camp in Nanwofu. After the 5,000 soldiers and horses under the command of both sides lined up the formation, under the order of Dian Wei, they quietly rushed towards the camp of Goguryeo and Nanwofu.
The five thousand Youzhou elites led by Ma Tong rushed towards the camp in Nanwofu without hindrance, and Ma Tong also knew the main purpose of this mission. Therefore, he was not keen on killing the enemy, and ran towards the camp of Nanwo Fu in a hurry, and then set a few fires, and returned in the direction of Benxi City, and at this time, the patrol soldiers of Nan Wo Fu found that there was an enemy attack, which shows how poor the discipline in the army of Nan Wo Fu is. However, when Ma Tong and the others finished setting fire, they found that it was obviously too late, and some of the soldiers of Nanwofu who wanted to stop them were all killed by Ma Tong without hesitation. And the large army of Nanwofu could only follow behind Ma Tong and 5,000 soldiers and horses.
On the other side, the camps of Nanwofu and Goguryeo were about 500 meters apart. At the time of the Ma Tong operation, Dian Wei was also moving. However, Gao Jianchang had already arranged a large number of patrols, and before Dian Wei and the others approached, they had already been discovered, and the shouts suddenly rang out one after another. Unlike Ma Tong, Dian Wei took over the task of attacking the camp completely to kill the enemy. I haven't touched my hand these days, and Dian Wei's double halberd has long been hungry and thirsty. Therefore, when Dian Wei saw the soldiers of Goguryeo, he did not hesitate to kill. But in the blink of an eye, hundreds of Goguryeo soldiers, under the leadership of Dian Wei, were crushed into slag. Of course, Dian Wei did not forget Yuan Chang's instructions and killed hundreds of Goguryeo soldiers, and his addiction was eliminated somewhat. At that moment, a few torches were thrown casually, and without saying a word, he directly ordered a retreat and ran towards Benxi City. By the time Gao Jianchang led a large group of men and horses to chase and kill, Dian Wei and the others had already returned to Benxi City.
"Hateful!"
Gao Jianchang roared indignantly, but he didn't expect that he had already taken precautions, and he had lost a lot of soldiers and horses. It's just that, looking at the direction of Nanwofu's camp, the corners of Gao Jianchang's mouth hooked up a sneer. Looking at the situation in the Nanwofu camp, many places are in flames at the moment, and I think about it, I lost a lot of men and horses tonight. He wanted to see how Walton could be arrogant in front of him.
After making some detailed arrangements, Gao Jianchang led dozens of cronies and soldiers to run to the camp in Nanwofu, there were not many opportunities to mock, and now at this time, it was a good opportunity.
"General Walton, General Ben told you a long time ago that the people of the Central Plains are scheming, and today's actions are unusual, and there must be some schemes. Sure enough, they came to attack tonight. Fortunately, General Ben had already taken precautions and strengthened the patrolling soldiers, so the losses were not large, and hundreds of soldiers were killed and wounded. General Walton, I wonder what your losses are in the army?" Gao Jianchang asked very kindly, as if he was concerned about friendly troops.
It's just that as soon as Gao Jianchang finished speaking, Walton's face showed a strange expression; not only Walton, but also the soldiers in the nearby South Wo were all exactly the same expressions as Walton.
"What's wrong? Are you losing too much?"
Gao Jianchang was a little inexplicable, looking at the previous situation, Youzhou dispatched thousands of soldiers and horses, no more than 5,000. They were already on guard in Goguryeo and lost hundreds of soldiers, while Nanwofu was unprepared and could react with a loss of one or two thousand at most. Looking at the reaction of Walton and his men, could it be said that there was more to lose?
"Whew!"
Walton finally couldn't help it, chuckled, as if mocking, and said, "General Gao, you still don't believe that your Goguryeo soldiers are weak. You were prepared and lost hundreds of soldiers, and our warriors were not prepared at all, only twenty or so soldiers, plus a few burnt tents. With such an enemy army, you Goguryeo soldiers can't deal with it, and my warriors in Nanwo don't pay attention to it at all. ”
"Haha!"
"That's right, a group of weak Central Plains people, we Wofu warriors will not be afraid at all!"
"That's right, they will kill as many as they want, let them see the power of our Wofu warriors!"
What the warriors of Nanwo were shouting, Gao Jianchang didn't pay too much attention to it. At this moment, there was a buzzing in his head, and he didn't understand, how could this happen? Their Goguryeo soldiers had been prepared for a long time, but as a result, they lost hundreds of soldiers, which did not seem to be much, but compared to Nanwo, who was defenseless and only lost more than 20 soldiers, their Goguryeo was simply disgraced and thrown home. At this moment, Gao Jianchang was doubting in his heart, was their Goguryeo soldiers really so weak? Under the depression, Gao Jianchang couldn't care about it, or at this moment, he no longer had the face to show his wisdom in anticipating the enemy's opportunity, so he said hello and walked towards his military camp in a daze.
Of course, Ren Gao Jianchang could not have imagined that it was the battle maniac Dian Wei who had been holding back for several days who led the troops to attack their camp, and it was Ma Tong who faithfully carried out the order that attacked the camp of Nanwofu. It is also extremely normal for two people with very different personalities to perform tasks, and to create such a gap. It's just that now in Gao Jianchang's eyes, it is a very abnormal thing. In his lifetime, this question will not have a chance to be answered.
After this battle, Walton also seemed to reflect a little, and strengthened the patrol soldiers. Although only more than twenty soldiers were lost, it was also a great loss for the already small population of Nanwofu.
After a night's rest, Gao Jianchang's mood finally improved.
And at noon, the spies came to report that Yu Ban of Shiqiaozi City wanted to raid them with his troops. Then, Gao Jianchang and Walton each led 20,000 soldiers and horses to meet the enemy, and after each side threw down the corpses of dozens of soldiers, they retreated. Of course, Yu Ban's surprise attack was discovered by Goguryeo's spies, and it was also deliberate, all in order to show the enemy's weakness and achieve strategic goals.
After many days of repeated this, on the tenth day after the reinforcements from Nanwofu arrived, reinforcements from several other small countries finally arrived. (To be continued.) )
