Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Tactics of Exhausting Soldiers
Zhang Xun sneered: "Before Lei Shu led three thousand pioneers to attack this Jiang Pavilion, even if he rested for a while, what would happen? They are still tired. ”
"That'...... What does the general mean? Qin Huai was stupid, he couldn't turn this corner for a while, and asked suspiciously.
Zhang Xun said with a smile: "You say, if everyone under the Lei Book will fight with panda eyes tomorrow, what will it do?" ”
As soon as Qin Huai's eyes lit up, he automatically made up the appearance of the soldiers and horses under the thunder book account as paralyzed and embarrassed as soft-footed shrimps, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"What does the general mean is that the soldiers and horses of the Thunder Book can't sleep tonight?"
"Exactly!" Zhang Xun said to the people under the tent, "The vanguard army of the Lei Book rushed to Jiangting, even if the weapons were high in the afternoon battle, but their fatigue was hidden in the body, we will send two hundred soldiers and horses tonight with drums and gongs, pretending to rob the camp, every half an hour the drums and gongs will shake the sky, to show off their strength in front of their tents, and when they come back from pursuit, these two hundred soldiers and horses will quickly retreat." Tomorrow, before the third watch cooks and marches into the thunder book, it will be time for us to harvest. ”
"The general's plan is really yin...... That's really smart. A general smiled at Zhang Xun and said, "As soon as the general's plan comes out, the three thousand soldiers and horses of the thunder book will not be able to sleep at night, and tomorrow will definitely be defeated." ”
Qin Huai also laughed and said: "The general's plan to prevent people from sleeping, it is really ruthless, this is a person who can't stand it." ”
Zhang Xun said in a condensed voice: "Actually, this strategy should be used for a few days in a row, but now we have few soldiers and horses, and Chen Lan's soldiers and horses are afraid that it won't take long to reach Jiangting, we must defeat this thunder book vanguard as soon as possible, although they can't sleep at night, but just one day this effect is not good at all, no matter what, tomorrow will be a battle to the death!" I hope you will cheer up. ”
"Of course!" The generals shouted.
At this time, one of the generals wondered: "General, how can our soldiers rest in this way?" Lei Shu's military camp is not too far from ours, if we rush over to drum gongs and make noise, then we won't be able to sleep well? ”
"That's a good question," Zhang Xun praised, and then he took out two pre-prepared strips of cloth from his bosom, stuffed them into his ears, and gave a demonstration in public. "This is the method and strategy that His Majesty said when I communicated with His Majesty before, I just remembered it in my mind by accident, you see, when this cloth strip is plugged in my ears, when the war horses are galloping outside, and the drums and gongs are shaking the sky, I can't say that I can't hear it at all, but at least I can still fall asleep."
"The general is smart, I admire it!" There was another sound of sycophants.
"Okay, Zhu Cheng listens to the order, give you 200 men and horses, make food at the time, attack the camp at the time, you don't need to get too close to the camp tent of Lei Shu, if you encounter Lei Shu and others, you can't be defeated, retreat immediately, just keep harassing. Attack once every half an hour, until the third watch tomorrow, don't be afraid to waste bows and arrows, and try not to fight them hand-to-hand. Zhang Xun suddenly became serious and commanded.
"If you disobey the order, you will not be spared!"
"Yes, General, Cheng will definitely complete the task." Zhu Cheng said with his fists clenched. Zhu Cheng is a junior general of the Yulin Army, and now Zhang Xun doesn't dare to hand over the control of the army to those generals, so he hands it over to the people in the Yulin Army, and those generals also know that they are not trusted now, so they will not show anything.
"The rest of the troops and horses, tomorrow will be led by me, today the thunder book is defeated, morale is low, and we will definitely recuperate, but we send people to invade, you don't have to care. Tomorrow's third watch is less than time, you can rest assured, when the time comes, don't relax, before the sun appears tomorrow, we will defeat the Lei Book army! Do you understand? ”
Zhang Xun said again.
"Don't worry, everyone, you have time to rest, but the soldiers and horses in this Lei Book Army don't have a moment of breathing, and when the time comes, don't you have the confidence to win against a group of sleepy and weak remnants?"
"Yes!" The soldiers shouted.
"Go down quickly and get ready to go, Qin Huai, you lead a team of fifty people, dispatch in the center, and be ready to meet them at any time, remember, today, I don't ask you to defeat Lei Shu, you just need to drag this group of vanguard troops to the death for me, and don't let them rest." Zhang Xun admonished.
"Yes. Checkmate! ”
…………
Inside the tent, Zhang Xun stood outside in the open space, watching the stars in the sky pacing back and forth.
"Tomorrow is the most critical war to determine the victory!"
Zhang Xun said to himself, it would be false to say that Zhang Xun was not nervous, as long as there was a slight mistake in his strategy, if the 1,200 soldiers and horses were finished, Yuan Yao would really be finished, and Zhang Xun must be sure that his plan would not make a slight mistake.
"General, the defense outside the main camp of the Lei Book has been relaxed." Qin Huai walked in and said.
"Uh-huh!" Zhang Xun agreed, everything is ready now, no matter whether the defense power of this thunder book is sent down by a ploy or a real one, it is enough to start constantly intruding.
"Okay, tell Zhu Cheng to lead fifty cavalry, one hundred and fifty soldiers and horses to prepare to start assaulting the Lei Book camp, remember, you can't go head-to-head with the Lei Book army!" Zhang Xun commanded.
"Yes!"
Qin Huai went to inform Zhu Cheng after hearing Zhang Xun's order.
…………
Lei Book's camp tent, Lei Book just arrived in Jiangting today, and he was just about to make a big move, but he was a bad starter, and even Zhao Yi, the deputy general in the vanguard army, was folded in Zhang Xun's hands.
Today, the morale of the soldiers in Lei Shu was low, and Lei Shu was afraid that Zhang Xun would take this opportunity to rob the camp, so he relaxed the defense outside the camp tent, in order to confuse Zhang Xun, and then when Zhang Xun came to rob the camp, he caught them off guard.
But Lei Shu didn't know, his nightmare had just begun......
At three o'clock, the earth was covered in darkness, and in the camp of the thunder book, Jin Ge's soldiers and horses were ambushed in the camp tent, and there was a murderous atmosphere, and even the moon in the sky seemed to be unable to withstand this evil spirit, and hid behind the clouds.
Lei Shu explained the matter to his confidant general in the account and asked, "How is it, have you relaxed the defense of the outer camp?" Lei Shu asked the general in front of him.
"The second is in charge, and the defense has been slackened. And the ambush is also done, as long as this Zhang Xun comes to rob the camp tonight, he must not return. :
The general said to the thunder book.
Lei Shu took a sip of wine and said: "This Zhang Xun is really hateful, today, unexpectedly, he actually died, and more than 400 casualties of our army were killed!" ”
Lei Shu was very angry, but he was actually frightened, not for anything else, because if it wasn't for Zhao Yi to save him today, I am afraid that he would not be the only one who died.
"The second leader, this Zhang Xun is strong in force, and we are not opponents, so, I think, we still don't take the initiative to attack. When the big boss comes, we will encircle and suppress them again, Zhang Xun has brought out all the troops of Jiang Ting, as long as he kills them, Jiang Ting will be at his fingertips! Another general said to Lei Shu.
"Well, you're right, if you fight again tomorrow, you won't fight with him, and you will directly lead the army to stop and kill."
Lei Shu also knew that he would be even more embarrassed to fight with this Zhang Xun again, he had already lost twice, and if he lost the third time, he might not have to live, and Lei Shu also understood that he could not hurt the interests of the entire battalion because of his own selfishness, if he died, the vanguard would be finished, and even if he couldn't take Jiang Ting, he couldn't wipe out all the three thousand soldiers and horses.
"When the big boss comes, the second boss will definitely win, kill Zhang Xun, kill Yuan Yao, Jiang Ting will be in his hands, and when the time comes, take the heirloom jade seal, and the masters will go wherever they want!" The general seemed to see that Lei Shu was in a bad mood and patted his ass.
While he was talking, suddenly a cannon rang out outside the camp, followed by the sound of drums like thunder, the sound of horses' hooves rumbling to the sky, and the sound of shouting and killing rose to the sky.
The faces of the generals under the thunder book changed greatly, and they picked up the big knife on the side and rushed out of the big tent, and asked the soldiers outside the tent, "What's the situation?" Is it Zhang Xun's night attack on the camp? ”
"General Qiyu, Zhang Xun attacked the camp at night, and there were countless torches." The pro-soldier knew that the matter was urgent, and hurriedly said.
After listening to this, the general looked at Lei Shu, his heart was still very powerful, and he had already guessed Zhang Xun's trick, and couldn't help laughing: "Come on, when they come, let them come and go." Hurry up and tell those who are in ambush to wait for the cannon to fire! The general commanded to his soldiers.
How dare this soldier slack off, and hurriedly call those soldiers who have laid an ambush. Let them wait for the enemy to enter the camp, hear the sound of artillery before attacking, and then trap them directly in the camp and crush them in one fell swoop.
But left and right, no one came, and the general who ambushed knew at a glance that he was fooled. After Lei Shu heard the gongs and drums outside, he was quite relieved, and he said in his heart that he would get back the face he had lost today, but he didn't expect to wait a lot of time, but he found that no one came at all.
Lei Shu took the lead, drove the horse directly except for the camp tent, and looked at the situation outside, Lei Shu's face suddenly became iron-blue, because there was no one outside, and it was so dark that he couldn't see anything.
That is, there is no drumming, and there is no shouting and killing.
"Zhang Xun, this coward." Lei Shu saw that he had been tricked, and he hated returning to the camp in a scolding manner.
"The second master, obviously that Zhang Xun saw that we were prepared and didn't dare to fight, so he ran away." The general under Lei Shu said.
"Order the soldiers to rest well, and early tomorrow morning, we will capture Jiangting."
Lei Shu gritted his teeth, the roots of his teeth itched, and he forgot that he was going to fight a war of attrition with Zhang Xun tomorrow, so he had a plan to delay the army.
So these soldiers who had been in ambush went back to rest, and Lei Shu returned to the big tent, thinking that he didn't even have a fart for such a good opportunity today, he was really drunk.
"I must give this medal to ...... tomorrow"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another burst of artillery outside the camp, and he heard many people shouting: "Kill, let these thieves be wiped out, kill!" ”
Countless arrows poured down from the night, forming a torrent of turbulent water.
"Zhang Xun is killed!" Lei Ji beat his horse and galloped out of the camp, it was simply a raging flame, but when he arrived outside the camp, he saw that there was no figure outside.
"Zhang Xun is really shameless, and he didn't dare to fight when he attacked my camp at night, he really ...... rats."
Lei Shu returned to the camp in a loud scolding, and before he could sit down, there was the sound of cannons and shouts of killing outside.
This time Lei Shu was really furious, and rushed out again, only to find that it was still the same as the previous two times, and nothing was found.
", what the hell is going on?" Lei Shu scolded unhappily.
When he returned to the camp again, he saw his soldiers, all listless. I was shocked, could this be Zhang Xun's tired strategy?
The result was as he expected, and then, the two hundred people led by Zhu Cheng continued to intrude, the fourth, fifth, and sixth times. Lei Shu was about to go crazy, and scolded: "Damn, this must be Zhang Xun's dog thief's tired strategy!" He was small in number and did not dare to face the enemy head-on. That's why it's a tiring tactic to delay us. ”
At this time, a small school came to report.
"General, although those soldiers and horses outside the tent have a lot of torches, the number of them must not exceed five hundred!"
Lei Shu nodded, meaning that he already knew, and secretly said that he was too cautious just now, and the other party was only five hundred people at most, that is, to scare and scare people, so he ordered: "Tell the soldiers to rest and not to take care of the movements outside the camp." ”
The movement outside the camp came every half an hour, and the commotion did not stop until the third watch. At first, Lei Shu was still a little vigilant, and sent a force to squat and try to catch the incoming people.
But later, the idiots could see that it was a tired tactic, just to prevent the army from resting and attacking Jiangting. So Lei Shu himself was too lazy to move.
This night, Zhu Chengyi attacked the camp seven or eight times in a row, although in the end they all saw that this Zhang Xun was just to let them sleep well, so he used these conspiracies, but those soldiers were also exhausted and sleepy, their eyes were red and swollen, their eyebrows were black, like a giant panda, they were all staggering, even if they stood unsteadily.
The effect that Zhang Xun wanted was achieved anyway.
"Grandma's, it's finally over, you can go back to sleep." A general who was sent out by Lei Shu to guard outside the camp turned around and returned to the camp with a curse, and after a while, the horn was blown outside the city again, gongs and drums sounded, and Zhang Xun's soldiers began to attack the camp again.
But no one knows, this time it's real......
