Zhao Kuo was bored lying on the carriage, very unwilling. I have been familiar with military books since I was a child, and I am familiar with many classic battles in ancient times.

He always felt that he had the talent to command millions of troops, but he didn't expect to be arranged by Yu Xian to be an escort officer who escorted military rations and baggage.

Zhao Kuo was a member of the Zhao royal family of the Chu State, and this time he set out to conquer Dafu. Zhao Kuo took the initiative to find Zhao Yuanrang, the king of Chu, and asked the king of Chu to send himself to command the army and lead the army to conquer Dafu. However, Zhao Yuanrang, the king of Chu, used his lack of actual combat experience as a name, and let himself follow Yu Xian's army and experience first.

For this generalissimo Yu Xian, Zhao Kuoda looked down on him in his heart. This rude man who has been in the army for a long time can actually achieve the position of generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Chu State, this is a position tailored for himself!

After coming to the army, I didn't expect Yu Xian to let himself serve as a sesame petty officer who escorted supplies. This made Zhao Kuo very dissatisfied in his heart, he was a dignified general, and he should strategize to win thousands of miles, not a logistics official who escorted materials.

Finally, Yu Xian was in the name of marching and fighting, and logistics support was particularly important. finally made Zhao Kuomian accept the appointment with embarrassment.

In the first few times when escorting materials, Zhao Kuo was still able to be cautious. First, his soldiers were sent to reconnoiter and explore the road in front, and then the escort materials were taken away, and the carriage moved forward slowly.

But slowly, Zhao Kuo lost interest in this boring work. From Xunyang Pass to Xunyang City, I have walked this road countless times in the past two months, and I know how to go with my eyes closed.

In addition, there have never been any mistakes in these countless deliveries of materials, and no one dares to harass the food and baggage of the Chu army, so over time, Zhao Kuo has lost the vigilance he had at the beginning. Treat this job as if you were going out to travel and relax. In such a state of mind, he didn't have the mind at all, and put his energy on guarding against the enemy.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Just as Zhao Kuo was lying drowsy on the carriage, a soldier suddenly shouted not far away. He walked dozens of times on this road, but he didn't encounter any attack, when Zhao Kuo was suspicious and stepped out of the carriage.

He was stunned by what he saw. On the hillsides on both sides of the road, there were many soldiers standing at this time, and they were shooting at the Chu soldiers below with bows and arrows. In a short period of time, there were already many Chu soldiers, and the arrows fell to the ground.

The Chu soldiers led by Zhao Kuo this time to escort the supplies were about five or six thousand, and the number was actually not less than that of the soldiers led by Yang Yun. But they are now in the middle of the mountain road. Except for a few wagons carrying supplies, there was nothing to cover. Therefore, these Chu soldiers were almost completely exposed to the range of the bows and arrows of the Dafu soldiers.

"Shieldman, block the enemy's bow and arrow!" In a hurry, Zhao Kuo shouted loudly, and many Chu soldiers holding shields on their heads slowly multiplied together. With this layer of protection, many bows and arrows shot from the cliffs were blocked by shields. But from time to time, long arrows were shot through the gaps in the shields, and there were Chu soldiers who fell down screaming.

After a while, fewer and fewer arrows were being shot down from the hillside, and it seemed that the opponent's long arrows were almost exhausted. The soldiers of the Chu army had just breathed a sigh of relief, and something happened that made them even more frightened.

The Dafu soldiers, who had run out of arrows, put their longbows on their backs again, then picked up the boulders and rolling logs that had been prepared long ago, and smashed them down at the Chu soldiers under the hillside.

The shield can block the opponent's bow and arrow, but it is difficult to resist the rolling log and boulder, so many Chu soldiers were hit by stones or rolling logs, and fell to the ground groaning in pain.

These two rounds of attacks by the Dafu soldiers did not take long. But in this short half an hour, nearly 2,000 soldiers of the Chu army lost their ability to fight.

Many Chu soldiers dodged bows and arrows and boulders with the help of horse-drawn carriages and some dead spots in the river, but the Dafu soldiers did not give them time to breathe. After running out of boulders and logs, they were armed with knives and guns. While shouting loudly, he rushed down the hillside, and the two sides immediately engaged in a face-to-face fight.

The Dafu soldiers rushed down the hillside and took advantage of the geographical advantage. In addition, the soldiers of the Chu army who were attacked, the current formation was very messy, and the morale was at its lowest, so soon after the fierce battle between the two sides, the soldiers of the Chu army were defeated and retreated.

"General, you can't stop it, let's retreat!" Zhao Kuo had just killed a Dafu soldier and was about to rush towards the next person when a guard shouted beside him.

Hearing the shouts of the guards, Zhao Kuo raised his head and couldn't help but be taken aback, in this short period of time, most of the soldiers of the Chu State had fallen. If I don't retreat, all the soldiers will probably be killed here. Zhao Kuo turned his head to look at the carriages loaded with grain and grass, and shouted fiercely: "Withdraw!" ”

Hearing Zhao Kuo's order, the soldiers of the Chu army who were fighting fiercely breathed a sigh of relief. They stopped their opponents who were fighting fiercely one after another, and withdrew along the mountain road in the direction of Xunyang Pass.

In this battle, the Dafu soldiers took advantage of the terrain and took the initiative to sneak attack the opponent, only paying the price of nearly 500 people, while the Chu soldiers suffered more than 2,000 casualties.

At the same time, the Chu army also lost a lot of grain and grass, and all kinds of materials. Yang Yun arranged for his soldiers to take away all the materials that could be taken away, and those that could not be taken away were all damaged, and nothing could be left for the Chu army.

When the team transporting grain was attacked by the Dafu army, the news reached Yu Xian, the generalissimo of the Chu army. Yu Xian and the generals of the Chu army couldn't believe it, how could there be a Dafu army hidden on the mountain here!

But the facts were in front of everyone, and Yu Xian had to discuss with his subordinates how to deal with this sudden situation.

Another enemy army in their own rear. This is a fact that Yu Xian and his generals cannot accept.

This enemy force must be eliminated, otherwise they will continue to harass the rear delivery team, and the battle will not be able to continue. Yu Xian and his generals quickly reached a consensus. dispatched a team as fast as possible, preparing to wipe out Yang Yun and the others in the mountains.

But the next situation made Yu Xian very headache, this army was hidden in the mountains, and the army could not find their traces.

But when the Chu army's team carrying supplies passed by, they would rush down from the mountain road. It is mainly to destroy the living forces of the Chu army and damage materials.

And when Chu Zao sent a team to exterminate them, if the number of soldiers sent was relatively small, they would take the initiative to attack these Chu soldiers. But if the Chu army is relatively large, they will hide in the mountains, so that Chu Jun cannot find their traces.

Also, if the Chu army sent a large group of men, they would light piles of bonfires in the mountains. And Yang Ming and others in the Golan City. Seeing the smoke of the fire in the third middle school, he will launch a frantic attack on the Chu military camp.

In this way, these Dafu soldiers hid in the mountains, and the Chu army wanted to exterminate them. Not an easy task. At the same time, the army of Dafu in the city of Golan. From time to time, they had to harass the Chu army camp, so that they could not devote themselves to the action of exterminating the Fu army in the mountains.

In the blink of an eye, this situation persisted for more than a month. During this period of more than a month, it was very difficult for the Chu army to transport supplies from the rear, often sending at least 50,000 people to the rear to transport supplies each time.

Even so, because the mountain road is long and narrow, the army escorting the materials cannot take care of the end, so it is often attacked by the Dafu army, which makes Chu Nian lose a lot of materials every time he transports materials.

And the 300,000 people of the Chu army entering Dafu, the amount of materials they consume every day is not a large amount.

In addition, the 300,000 soldiers of the Chu army must now be assigned a part of them to guard the Xunyang Pass, and at least 50,000 or so must be sent to escort the supplies every day to ensure that the materials can be smoothly delivered to the camp.

At the same time, Yu Xian also sent soldiers to defend the two small cities of Hengshan and Jingcheng, so that there were only less than 200,000 Chu soldiers in the big camp. In the face of the Dafu army, which was more numerous than them and familiar with the terrain, they slowly felt a little unbearable, and in several major battles, the soldiers of the Chu army were at a disadvantage, which made the Chu army suffer several defeats in succession.

Seeing such a situation, Yang Ming came to the spirit and launched an attack on the Chu army camp with Dafu soldiers every day. Judging from the current situation, if this continues to develop like this, the Chu army should not be able to hold out for long.

In the early morning of this day, Yang Ming launched a fierce attack on the Chu army camp with the Dafu army as before. But this time the attack was very easy, and Yang Ming quickly rushed into the tent of the Chu army with his people.

But when they walked into the Chu army camp, everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and there were only a few dozen old men left in the Chu army camp at this time. There were also hundreds of old and sick war horses. Beckoned by these veterans to keep running around the camp, creating the illusion that there are still many people in the camp.

Yang Ming asked people to grab a few veterans of the country and ask them about the traces of Yu Xian and the army of Chu, and learned that Yu Xian saw that his own soldiers had too many casualties, and he could not see a trace of hope of victory if he continued to stay here, so he led his troops to retreat overnight.

At this time, there were Tanma coming to report one after another, and the Chu soldiers who were originally in the two small cities of Hengshan and Jingcheng to respond to the big camp actually withdrew completely.

Yang Ming was so annoyed that he let these hundreds of thousands of Chu soldiers flee unnoticedly under his eyelids, and he immediately commanded the army to pursue Xunyang City as quickly as possible.

The enemy fled in a hurry, and the formation must have been very disorganized, which was a good opportunity to inflict heavy damage on the enemy. Therefore, Yang Ming led the soldiers on a rapid march, wanting to catch up with them before the Chu army returned to Xunyang City.
