Chapter Seventy-Eight: Ambush in the South Valley
"It's not unreasonable for the prince to think about it, it's just... Although Changyi recruited the army, it was only 3,000 when it was full, and it was left behind... There are only 2,000 people who can be used, and they can make a difference... I'm afraid it's limited, and... After all, Zhang Yun has 3,000 elite horsemen, so he has to guard against it. ”
To say, Zhang Yong's idea is indeed very tempting, Shen Tan and Shen Yi are indeed a little excited, after all, they have been suppressed by Jingzhou for so long, and they will have a lot of anger in their hearts if they are a general.
But... Considering the actual situation, let's take care of it! Sticking to it can still keep the city is not.
"I know what the two generals mean!"
Nodding, Zhang Yong didn't show too much disappointment, and he knew this... It's just that I'm unwilling.
"Buncho, what do you think!?"
Then his eyes turned, and Zhang Yong looked at Wei Yan with a little more expectation.
In his previous life, Wei Yan was good at using soldiers and scheming... It's just that I don't know that today's Wei Yan has a bit of weight at the peak of later generations.
"I'm going to think... Feasible! ”
It seems that Zhang Yong's eyes gave some kind of hint, and it seems that Wei Yan wants to express... His eyes were slightly condensed, and Wei Yan's voice was like a thunderbolt, exploding in everyone's ears.
"Wei Sima .. How can you..."
"Sit down! Listen to what Wen Chang has to say! ”
Looking at Shen Tan and Shen Yi who wanted to jump up, Zhang Yong took a picture of it in a word.
"The last general is just thinking... Why do we have to surround it, why can't we lure Zhang Yun's soldiers and horses out and destroy them. In this night attack, the prince never let go of a rout and fled north, that is to say, Zhang Yun did not know the news of Cai Zhongcai and Quanquan at the moment, this... It's our advantage, as long as we take advantage of this and force Zhang Yun back before Zhang Yun increases his troops again, it's not... No way. ”
"Keep talking! How to take advantage of this! ”
Hearing Wei Yan's words, Zhang Yong's eyes suddenly lit up, indeed... Fang just fell into a misunderstanding of thinking, and after Wei Yan's little bit, Zhang Yong already had some plans in his heart.
"Pick a cronie of Cai Zhong Cai He, go to ask for help, and say that Shangyong has reinforcements arriving, and it is difficult for Zhang Yun to judge for a while, and he will send cavalry to rush to help, and from Fangling to Changyi, the fastest is to take the trail, and take the trail... You must pass through the South Valley, the terrain of the South Valley is complex, the north and south are long and narrow, you only need to hide the ambush soldiers, block the north and south roads, and the Jingzhou elite cavalry who came to support has become a stuffy gourd, and you can't advance or retreat, so you can only let the prince handle it, so... can break Zhang Yun's arm again. ”
"Brilliant plan! Wen Chang is really capable of writing and martial arts, and he has the style of an ancient famous general! ”
With a burst of applause, Zhang Yong couldn't help but slap the ground and shake off the futon... The spirit suddenly improved.
If they can eat Jingzhou Jingqi, they can do a lot more after that, forcing Zhang Yun back... It's not that hard.
"Who does the chief think can take on this position?"
The candidate for Zhang Yun's camp in front of him is the key, if there is a mistake, I am afraid that it will be self-defeating and miss the opportunity.
"The military marquis Cai Jiu is a slave of the Cai family, and he is familiar with Zhang Yun, so he can take on this responsibility!"
……
In the evening, outside Fangling City, Zhang Yun camped in the village.
At this time, Zhang Yunfang took off his armor, and after filling his stomach, he sat on the shore and read the Spring and Autumn Period, enjoying the rare clean time of the day, when he heard a ghost crying wolf howling outside the tent, and his mood suddenly became bad.
"Go and see what's going on, who's making noise in the camp!"
Annoyedly, he threw the bamboo slip in his hand aside, Zhang Yun stood up and commanded the guards outside the tent.
"General, it's Cai Jiu."
It didn't take long for Zhang Yun's personal guard commander to walk in with one person.
"Dezhong asked you to come over, but what's the matter?"
Dezhong is Cai Zhong's expression, looking at Cai Jiu's dusty appearance, Zhang Yun couldn't help frowning.
"General... Shangyong City has increased its troops, and my general has been unable to attack it for a long time, and now it has reached a stalemate, so I asked the general to send reinforcements as soon as possible. ”
I don't know if there is a ghost in my heart, or if I am really afraid of Zhang Yun, in short, Cai Jiu vividly interprets a slave.
"Shangyong City has increased its troops?"
The case of the finger tapping, as Wei Yan guessed, Zhang Yun did not doubt the authenticity of what Cai Jiu said.
Zhang Yun and Cai Jiu have known each other for more than ten years, and they know the roots, even if Cai Jiu is given ten guts, Cai Jiu will never deceive himself.
"Go, call Du Peng!"
Du Peng, after Zhang Yun took charge of the army, was the newly promoted Sima, who was in charge of 3,000 elite cavalry.
Once a son of heaven and a courtier, Zhang Yun's interpretation has reached the limit, except for Huo Du... Three or five people had generals who were supported by civil servants, and the rest were basically rotated by Zhang Yun.
"The last general, I have seen the general"
As he had guessed, it wasn't long before a stout man lifted the curtain and walked in.
"Get up! There was an accident in Changyi, you immediately led the headquarters to support, and after arriving in Changyi, everything was under the dispatch of Lieutenant Colonel Cai.
Also, tell Cai Zhong that three days later... I want to hear the news of the destruction of Changyi City, otherwise I will get back, and I will go by myself. ”
Zhang Yun camped in the village, the war horses roared, and under the guidance of Cai Jiu, Du Peng led three thousand elite cavalry towards Changyi.
……
South Valley.
The morning light gradually pierced the sky, and under the dim sky, three thousand iron horsemen entered from the north and hurried through the southern valley.
"Marquis Cai, are you sure this is a shortcut to Changyi?"
Maybe it's Cai's name, Du Peng is also polite to Cai Jiu, but as the army enters the depths of the South Valley, looking at the steep mountains and trees on the left and right, out of the vigilance of a military general, Du Peng gradually became a little suspicious.
"Sima is too cautious, from Fangling to Changyi, there are two roads, one large and one small, these things... Just grab two people and ask. ”
Du Peng's question suddenly made Cai Jiu's heart chuckle, but thinking that his master's life was still in the hands of the enemy, out of loyalty... Cai Jiu was still calm, and continued to act.
Seeing that he hadn't found the clue, Du Peng didn't think much about it, and the vigilance in his heart slowly relaxed.
"Shizi, the Jingzhou Army is really here!"
Behind the ridge, on a piece of bluestone, Shen Tan and Shen Yi looked at the continuous Jingzhou cavalry, and their expressions were slightly excited.
"Pass the order, let's do it!"
Between the valleys, the sound of horns shook, and countless bows and crossbows and flying stones were fired in unison, cutting off the way for Du Peng and others to move forward, and causing a lot of casualties to Jingzhou's elite cavalry.
As for Cai Jiu, he unfortunately became the first batch of people to die in battle, I'm afraid Cai Jiu couldn't figure it out at the moment he died... Why did he die under the bow and crossbow of "his own side"?
"Enemy attack! There is an ambush! ”
"The rear team becomes the front team, and immediately evacuate the valley..."
Looking at the flying rocks and arrows that were gradually enlarged in the sky above and the road cut off by the rocks not far away, Du Peng roared angrily, like a wounded wolf, turned around and began to break through to the north.
Cai Jiu is an idiot, why do you have to take him down the trail.
