Chapter 669: One Step First
On the other side, after the raid by Cardo, the ghost king also immediately took the main force and went around in a big circle, preparing to take advantage of this to evacuate, how could there be any meaning of support.
He couldn't make a detour before, because as long as he moved, Xuanjun would definitely be aware of it, and he would definitely not let him leave easily.
But now, with Cardo in check, this creates opportunities and time for him.
And his goal was indeed achieved, at the cost of 40,000 people, he attracted all the attention of the Xuan army.
In this war, it is difficult to determine who will win and who will lose.
In the eyes of the ghost king, his intention has been achieved, and it is worth sacrificing some people, and in the eyes of King Xuan, it is naturally acceptable to encircle and suppress the ghost army of Kado.
When it was dawn, the encirclement and suppression came to an end, and the result was needless to say, the Xuan army set up an ambush and annihilated 40,000 ghost troops at a very small cost.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Yan Qi also immediately found King Xuan and began to report: "King, our army suffered more than 2,000 casualties in this battle, and about 40,000 ghost troops were annihilated. ”
"Yes." King Xuan nodded first, and then said: "I thought that the main force of the ghost army would attack the camp, but I didn't expect that it was 40,000 people who came to send them to death. ”
"The king is right." Wang Su received: "The ghost king's behavior is indeed beyond our expectations, presumably, his main force has already taken advantage of this to transfer." ”
After saying that, he continued: "But this is fine, for us, it is completely acceptable. ”
After hearing this, King Xuan didn't say anything more, but said with a little worry: "I don't know if King Qin's side is ready to intercept and deploy......
At the same time, after a night of detouring, the Ghost King also led the main force to cross the Xuanjun defense line and began to march towards Anyang.
On the way, the ghost king rode a war horse, holding a map of Huan Country in his hand, and after some comparison, he knew his current location, had gotten rid of the Xuan army, and was completely safe, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The adjutant general was beside him, and the corners of his mouth moved, and he couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, I don't know what happened to General Carddo now." ”
The ghost king put away the map and glanced at him, and said in a flat voice: "The result of Cardo, this king doesn't want to know anymore, entering Anyang is our ultimate goal, hurry up." ”
When the adjutant general heard this, he didn't dare to mention it again, but subconsciously said: "But the warriors have been gone all night, and they are listless......
"Now is not the time to reorganize!" The Ghost King interrupted him directly.
"Yes!"
The lieutenant first bowed his head respectfully, then pulled the reins slightly, rode his horse to the middle of the army, and began to command loudly.
"Hurry up!"
"Keep up!"
Looking at it, on the official road, countless ghost armies lined up in several long lines, and there was no end in sight.
Let's talk about the Qin army, it will take two days for Xiao to stay away from King Xuan, and you can choose an Anyang artery, if you march in a hurry, you can arrive in less than a day.
Qifeng Ridge.
There are mountains and forests on both sides, and under them is the official road.
At this moment, Su Yi with 50,000 Qin troops had already set up an ambush one step ahead.
The terrain here is not very dangerous, but Su Yi has no choice, because only here is the route that the ghost king must take.
If you want to fight an ambush, there are many crossbowmen, and now the high ground on both sides has been arranged, and after dealing with these, Su Yi was just about to order a team of people to get some stones, but a spy ran quickly in front of him, knelt down on one knee and said:
"Su Shuai, the enemy situation has been discovered ahead, and it is less than fifteen miles away."
"What? So fast? Su Yi frowned, on their side, in fact, they had just arrived, but they had only completed the deployment.
Goldman Sachs next to him was a little worried: "Su Shuai, this is ......"
Without the help of rolling stones, and some other things, the effect of the ambush will be greatly reduced, Su Yi understood what he meant, raised his hand slightly and said: "It's too late, let the soldiers in ambush hide first, and the other soldiers, hurry up and collect the stones, and then watch me order the banner to act." ”
"No!"
When the military order was issued, the generals began to make constant gestures.
The crossbowmen on the mountain ridge all began to bow down, some crouched behind the boulders, and some hid in the grassy forest.
The distance of fifteen miles is not far, and with the marching speed of the ghost army, it has appeared in the field of vision in about half an hour.
On the road below, a ghost general on a war horse first appeared, and then there was an endless army on foot.
On the mountains and forests on both sides, the generals of the Qin army were lying on their stomachs, making a gesture backwards, signaling that they were ready to act at any time, and then looked at Su Yi's position, waiting for his command flag.
The soldiers of the Qin army all began to draw their feather arrows, their eyes staring closely below.
At this moment, a command flag was suddenly erected, and then it was waved fiercely.
Seeing this, the generals unsheathed their swords almost at the same time and stood up violently.
"Shoot the arrows!"
At the sound of an order, the sound of armor rubbing everywhere, spread all over the mountains, and instantly stood full of black armor and red tassels, and the soldiers of the Qin army, who had already prepared, even pulled their bows full in unison and directly released their fingers.
Random arrows rained down, and what followed was a miserable howl in a row.
On the road down the mountain, the horses were frightened and neighed, and one by one the ghost sergeants were caught off guard, and they were shot to the ground one after another.
"Ambush! There's an ambush—"
A ghost general shouted, and his deputy general was also the first to protect the ghost king, and shouted urgently: "Quick! Protect His Majesty! ”
Countless ghost soldiers and soldiers rushed in, and the round shields on each side formed a shield array, stopped by the ghost king's side, and began to protect him and retreat again and again.
Soon, the ghost army left behind the corpses in front of them and withdrew from the ambush circle.
It's an instinctive reaction.
On the mountain, Gao Sachs saw that the first round of ambushes was not effective, and the other party easily retreated, so he couldn't help but say in a hurry: "Su Shuai, don't you often say that mountain ambushes have to wait for the opponent's Chinese army to pass by, strike at the middle, and make it difficult to take care of the end, why are you so anxious today." ”
Su Yi glanced at him: "How many times have I told you that the art of war is dead, and people are alive." Now that we are short of rolling stones, the ambush effect will not be too ideal, rather than this, it is better to press them back first, and let the ghost king entangle himself. ”
"He can't figure out the situation now, neither advancing nor retreating, and there is another way, which is to attack the mountain."
"This is what Ben Shuai wants to see the most."
"Of course, let him hesitate, the longer he hesitates, the better it will be for us, because as time goes on, we will only collect more and more stones."
"And he has to cross this road."
After Su Yi finished speaking, Goldman Sachs was a little dumbfounded, and then he came to his senses and stammered: "Watching Su Shuai use soldiers, ...... Always unexpected. ”
He was right, Su Yi used soldiers and never followed common sense.
