Chapter 118: Yang Yun offers advice
These men in black are warriors selected by Yang Ming from the army, and all of them are brave and good at fighting.
I got the news that it was said that the grain and grass of the Chu army were hidden on this hill. Therefore, Yang Ming asked these warriors to come and burn the enemy's grain and grass at night.
The Chu army crossed the Xunyang Pass this time to fight in Dafu, and the grain delivery was very intolerable, if the grain was burned, the grain behind would definitely not be able to be supplied in time, so the hundreds of thousands of Chu troops had to retreat without a fight.
Yang Ming's strategy was still quite good, but what he didn't expect was that Yu Xian also knew the importance of food to his army, and he had already guarded against the idea that the Dafu army might come to fight his own food. So he set up an ambush in advance, but he didn't expect that Yang Ming really hit the plan.
These black-clothed men can be sent by Yang Ming to carry out this very important task, and they are all warriors who are loyal to Dafu and Yang Ming. Before setting off, they were prepared to succeed if they didn't.
Therefore, even if you are facing an enemy who is several times your own, you are surrounded by enemy troops. They didn't either, showing a hint of fear, but shouted loudly and took the initiative to attack the Chu people.
The soldiers of the Chu army, who had been prepared for a long time, saw that the soldiers of Dafu who had been surrounded were still fighting the trapped beasts. They immediately drew their bows and arrows and shot fiercely in the direction of the man in black.
Some of these long arrows were blocked by the shield in the hand of the man in black, and some landed in the open space next to the man in black. When more arrows were fired, they hit the men in black who were charging closely, and many of them fell to the ground screaming.
However, the remaining men in black, as if they hadn't seen their comrades fall, still rushed towards the Chu army without hesitation. There were even some black-clothed people with sword wounds, shouting regardless of the pain on their bodies, and rushed towards these Chu soldiers under the hill.
Since the distance between the two sides was not too far, after the Chu soldiers shot two waves of arrows, the black-clothed man of Dafu had already rushed in front of them. These soldiers of the Chu army immediately hurriedly picked up the swords hanging from their waists and fought with these black-clothed men who rushed down.
In the two waves of sword rain just now, nearly half of the people in black have fallen, and the rest of the people in black have fallen because of countless robes. A raging anger had already ignited in their hearts, and at this time, the soldiers of the Chu army had become the best targets for them to vent their anger.
The Chu army was outnumbered and quickly gained an advantage on the battlefield, but they underestimated the ferocity of this group of men in black. These men in black are all good, and at the same time, they have put life and death out of the way. Many people obviously saw Chu Jun's sword slashing towards them, but they didn't care about it, they still picked up the weapons in their hands and wanted to greet each other.
In addition, these wounded men in black, as long as they were able to continue standing, they did not hesitate to bravely kill the enemy.
This kind of combat method of disregarding their own life and death, of course, the casualties are very fast, especially this group of people in black, most of them have been killed by the Chu army. But their sacrifice was still very meaningful, and dozens of men in black took advantage of the chaos to successfully break through the encirclement of the Chu army and rushed towards Golan City.
"Boiled ducks, you can't let them fly!" One of the leading generals in the Chu army shouted loudly, commanding his native soldiers to kill the fleeing black-clothed men.
Seeing that the Chu army was getting closer and closer, these men in black saw that they could not escape, so they pushed one of the men in black onto a war horse, and pushed him to leave quickly despite his opposition. Then they turned around and rushed towards the Chu soldiers, covering the escape of the black-clothed men on horseback at the cost of their lives.
Eventually, the returning men in black collapsed in a pool of blood, but they managed to buy time for the black man who fled on horseback to disappear into the night.
At dawn, Yang Ming got the news that the leader of the men in black who had fled back had brought back. Suddenly his face turned pale, and this time he got the wrong news, and lost hundreds of brave soldiers. What's more, Yu Xian already knew that he wanted to sneak attack the grain and grass of the Chu army, so this plan could no longer be implemented.
The news of the failure of the sneak attack on the enemy's grain and grass soon spread among the generals and officers of the Dafu military camp, and the generals regretted it at the same time. They also thought in their hearts, trying to find a way to get the enemy army to retreat.
The first time he led troops to the battlefield, he encountered such trouble, and Yang Yun was also anxious. He found Ju Yuanguang, Guo Long, Qi Wei and others. We discussed a lot of options together and tried to find a good way to defeat the enemy. But even if they racked their brains, they still couldn't find a good solution to the problem.
Most of the soldiers assigned by Yang Ming to Yang Yun were local soldiers in Yunzhou, and they knew the terrain of Yunzhou very well. Ju Yuanguang was chatting with these soldiers from Yunzhou when he got a message, and his eyes immediately lit up, and he had an idea in his heart. He immediately found Yang Yun and told him the solution he had come up with.
"Brother Thirteen's plan, I think you can give it a try, and I will immediately arrange someone to carry out your plan." After hearing Yang Yun tell himself, this plan. Yang Ming pondered for a long time and finally made a decision.
"Fifth Emperor Brother, Thirteenth Brother, I have not made any achievements in the army, let me take my soldiers to carry out this mission." Yang Yun said to Yang Ming.
"How can this be done, this operation will go deep behind enemy lines, and there will be many unexpected dangers. You are a prince, how can you try the risk yourself? Yang Ming said without hesitation.
"Fifth Emperor Brother, as a prince, haven't you also gone deep into dangerous places many times and made great achievements for Dafu? Although I don't have the same eloquence as the Five Emperor Brothers, I also want to do something for Dafu. As for the danger, am I still afraid of this? Only by going through hardships can you grow up. Yang Yun stood up and said excitedly,
"Fifth Emperor Brother, don't hesitate, you see that most of the soldiers under my command are local soldiers in Yunzhou, and they are very familiar with the terrain, and they are also the best candidates to carry out this mission." Seeing that Yang Ming was still hesitating, Yang Yun continued.
Yang Ming hesitated for a long time, looked at Yang Yun's eager gaze, sighed, and finally nodded.
On this day, it was a foggy day, and the dense fog severely limited everyone's vision, and they could only see things a few meters away from themselves. It was a day that was not suitable for combat.
Yu Xian, the generalissimo of the Chu army, was sitting in the camp tent and discussing the next battle plan with some strategists. Suddenly, I heard that some soldiers came to report that the Dafu army had actually left the city, and it seemed that they were going to attack them.
As soon as Yu Xian heard this, he immediately walked out of the camp tent, led his soldiers, and quickly set off. Soon after leaving the camp, they met the Dafu soldiers who had come to them, and the two sides immediately entered a fierce battle.
Hundreds of thousands of people were fighting together, and it was foggy weather, and the scene inevitably looked very messy. At this time, no one noticed that a group of Dafu soldiers quietly left the battlefield, bypassing the camp of the Chu army far away, thinking about the direction of Xunyang City, and hurriedly marched.
It was Yang Yun who led this group of soldiers, and he quietly left the battlefield with about 5,000 soldiers and rushed towards Xunyang Pass as fast as he could.
Xunyang Pass is an important pass between Dafu and Chu. Almost all of the materials needed by the soldiers of the Chu State were transported from Xunyang Pass. Because if you don't enter the territory of Dafu from here, you will have to take a detour for hundreds of miles.
When Ju Yuanguang was talking with the local soldiers in Yunzhou, he got such a message, between Xunyang Pass and Xunyang City. There is only one road that can be used to travel with each other, and the road is lined with untouched mountains and mountains, and there are no people at all.
But a local veteran of Yunzhou told Ju Yuanguang that in this section of the mountains, there used to be a bandit's cottage. The location of this cottage is very precipitous. They plundered the military materials that came and went between Sunshine and Sunshine City. It brought great trouble to the border army of Dafu. It took a long time for the officers and soldiers of Xunyang City to exterminate this bandit.
After the extermination of these bandits, the bandits' cottage was abandoned. Because the road to this cottage is very difficult to walk, no one will come to this cottage over time.
Yu Xian and the soldiers of the Chu State had just captured Xunyang Pass, and they did not know much about the terrain here, so they would not know that there was a cottage where soldiers could be hidden in this lofty mountain. The purpose of Yang Yun and the others on this trip was to take their soldiers to find and hide in this cottage.
Although it was a dense foggy weather, it was still very difficult to take 5,000 people with them to avoid the sight of the Chu army. Fortunately, Yang Ming, the victorious king, had five thousand sets of military uniforms of the Chu army prepared for them in advance. Soon after leaving the team, Yang Yun asked his subordinates to change these Chu military uniforms.
Although he had this Chu army uniform as a disguise, Yang Yun still didn't dare to be careless, and tried his best to hide his whereabouts along the way. Just like that, they finally bypassed Xunyang City. Come to the mountain road between Xunyang City and Xunyang Pass.
When I got here, I met fewer and fewer Chu soldiers. Finally, led by soldiers familiar with the terrain, they entered a very secret path. After turning east and west on the trail, I walked for more than an hour, and when the sun was about to set, I finally arrived at this cottage hidden in the mountains.
Although the cottage house is still there, it is dilapidated, but it can finally be sheltered from the wind and rain. Taking advantage of the fact that the sky was not completely dark, Yang Yun arranged for his soldiers to clean up this cottage as quickly as possible, and set up camp here.
The climate in this mountain is humid, and if it were not for this simple cottage, these 5,000 soldiers would not dare to camp in this mountain. Because according to the locals, there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants in this mountain, especially poisonous snakes, if you are accidentally bitten by these highly poisonous guys, you will die on the spot in less than a stick of incense, and even many local woodcutters and hunters do not dare to go deep into this mountain easily.
The soldiers under his command were busy cleaning up the cottage. Yang Yun took Chi Mu'er, Ju Yuanguang and others to a high cliff near the cottage to check the surrounding terrain.
Because Yang Yun knew that this time the action was extremely dangerous, and if he was not careful, these brothers would be wiped out.
