Chapter 212: Wuyangling Ambush

"Report! Qu Shuai, there are a large number of soldiers and horses in the direction of Cangwu City! ”

A herald who rode a war horse and galloped here quickly leaped down from the war horse, and then rushed towards Liu Zheng's camp.

As soon as he entered the door, he shouted at Xu Huang and Liu Zheng in a hurry.

As soon as this news came out, Liu Zheng and Xu Huang were immediately stunned at the same time, and then, their faces were happy.

"When is the news, what about General Huang Zhong's people?"

Hearing that there was finally news, Liu Zheng immediately asked the herald.

"The news came from Cangwu City an hour ago, according to the time, at this time, the reinforcements from Cangwu City should have arrived at the ambush point of General Huang Zhong and his soldiers and horses."

"Okay, Xu Huang, without further ado, let's immediately bring people over to support General Huang Zhong, there is no point in continuing to besiege Guangxin City here."

"Yes, Qu Shuai!"

The horn immediately sounded at this time, and Liu Zhengjun's soldiers immediately changed from a state of vigilance to a state of being ready to go at any time.

Liu Zheng's army in Guangxin City did not stop at all, and after receiving the news, he immediately began to support Huang Zhong.

Liu Zheng actually didn't particularly care about the Shixie here in Guangxin City, if he could defeat Zhu Fu's army in one fell swoop, the thousands of soldiers and horses in Guangxin City would not be taken into account at all.

The army began to withdraw in Guangxin City, and the movement of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses naturally immediately attracted the attention of Shi Xie.

"What's going on? Why did these bandits suddenly start withdrawing their troops? ”

Shi Xie stared at Liu Zheng's army outside the city, and saw that Liu Zheng's army was slowly assembling, and then gradually withdrawing from outside the city, and he didn't understand what was going on for a while.

He frowned, pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought that it must be the reinforcements that his brother and son had gone to Cangwu City to ask for, and counting the time, the reinforcements should be almost arriving at this time.

These bandits should have also discovered that reinforcements were coming, so they were frightened and hurriedly evacuated.

After thinking about this, Shi Xie's face immediately showed ecstasy.

He knew that he was saved, and the people of Guangxin City did not have to suffer with him. However, he knew that Liu Zheng led his troops to evacuate from Guangxin City, but he did not dare to pursue them.

Mainly because he didn't know whether this was Liu Zheng's trick or not, if it was the other party's strategy to retreat and lure him out of the city, it would be bad.

Therefore, knowing that Liu Zheng and the others were retreating, he still stuck to the city, and planned to wait for the reinforcements from Cangwu City to arrive.

And Liu Zheng's people didn't care about Shixie's thoughts at all, and led the 10,000 troops besieging Guangxin to immediately rush in the direction of Cangwu City.

At this time, there was a place called Wuyangling in the middle of Guangxin City and Cangwu City.

The terrain here is uneven, and there are five suddenly raised hills nearby, like five sheep grazing, so it is called Wuyangling. It is also the only way from Cangwu City to Guangxin City, the trees are dense, overgrown with weeds, it is very suitable, and set up ambushes.

A battalion of men and horses led by Huang Zhong's army set up an ambush in this place.

This place is not easy for Huang Zhong to find, it is convenient to set up an ambush and suitable for fighting, because of the narrow terrain, if Zhu Fu's 40,000 troops all arrive, because of the narrow terrain, Zhu Fu's 40,000 army can not be fully deployed, if there is a big battle here, there will definitely be only a small-scale fight.

In addition, most of Huang Zhong's 10,000-strong army of soldiers and horses knew some archery skills, and once a battle broke out, Huang Zhong's people could carry out a wave of strong blows against the reinforcements sent by Zhu Fu alone.

When Shiwu and Shihui and others went to Cangwu to ask for help, hundreds of soldiers and horses passed in this Wuyangling, and Huang Zhong's men and horses were better hidden at that time, and he had already received Liu Zheng's orders, so he was not exposed.

After Shiwu and the others went to Cangwu to ask for help, Huang Zhong and the others became more cautious, because there would be reinforcements from Cangwu City at any time, and even spies who came in advance, once their ambush plan was exposed, all their efforts would be lost.

Until now, the Huang Zhongjun of Wuyangling has hidden his body very well, waiting for the rescue soldiers and horses to come out of Cangwu City.

And there are not a few rescuers who came out of Cangwu City.

Shiwu and Shihui, after escaping to Cangwu City. found Zhu Fu as soon as possible, and said a few words about what happened in Guangxin City and Zhu Fu.

Zhu Fu had long wanted to use troops to fight Liu Zheng and kill Liu Zheng, the enemy who killed his father, with his own hands.

It's just that he hasn't found an opportunity, and Liu Zheng's men and horses have been hiding in the deep mountains of Yangzhou, which is inconvenient for marching, and the area of Yangzhou before crossing the border will still cause some unnecessary trouble.

This is why Zhu Fu has been delayed for so long. But now Liu Zheng actually brought his own men and horses to his territory, and it was in Guangxin City, not far from Cangwu County.

Isn't this just giving Zhu Fu a chance to attack?

So when Zhu Fu heard the news, not only did he not feel any conspiracy, but he felt that God was helping him.

Then he ignored the admonition of his advisers, and insisted on leading the 40,000 troops stationed in Cangwu City to directly send troops to Guangxin City, rescue Shixie and eliminate Liu Zheng who came to Jiaozhou to make trouble.

Because Zhu Fu's soldiers and horses were too scattered, they were distributed among the various battalions and schools in Cangwu City, and it took some time to gather them, and by the time they set off from Cangwu City to Guangxin, half a day had passed.

However, Zhu Fu is not a fool, as the eldest son of Zhu Jun, one of the three major generals, he still has a little understanding of his father Zhu Jun's way of using troops, although the army has not moved, but has sent scouts out in advance.

After these scouts did not bring back any unusual movements, Zhu Fu's army gradually quickened its pace and quickly advanced towards the location of Guangxin City.

When the men and horses led by Zhu Fu arrived at Wuyangling, they saw the terrain around Wuyangling, although they had some awareness and felt that this Wuyangling was a good place for ambush, they didn't even think about it, and directly led people into it.

At this time, he also thought that Liu Zheng's army was besieging Guangxin City, and it was impossible to send troops to set up an ambush here.

After all, how many soldiers and horses Liu Zheng has, he is very clear, even if he divides his troops to ambush here, it is impossible to have many people, at this time his 40,000 troops are all out, and he has to deal with more than 10,000 people in Liu Zheng, and it is not enough to capture them.

Just when he thought that he could pass through the Wuyang Ridge intact, suddenly there was a loud shout from the slopes on both sides of the Wuyang Ridge.

Immediately afterward, thousands of arrows flew up from the cliffs on both sides.
