Chapter 41: Flanking Attack
Three days later
Liu Bei led 70,000 troops to approach Wuyi Village steadily, although with the help of the Fu family, they had a great chance of successfully capturing Wuyi Village, but he still maintained enough caution, because from the situation reported by the pioneer Fu Xie, they encountered two waves of Xianbei Tancai in a short period of time, so the Northern Xiongnu stationed in Wuyi Village was a very cautious figure, which is not a good thing.
Once the Northern Huns stationed in Wuyi Village delivered the news to Hu Yanhao who attacked Wuwei City in time, Hu Yanhao would definitely immediately lead his troops to Zhangye and go to the Western Regions to slip away, it was really not easy to block the Northern Huns who were still carrying a large number of miscellaneous Huns, the best situation was that the Zahu was consumed to seventy-seven eighty-eight, and it would be much more difficult to run away with tens of thousands of Northern Xiongnu headquarters alone.
However, Liu Bei also estimated the time, and he only started to march seven days after a large number of miscellaneous Hu in Wuyi Village went south, but he didn't expect Huangfu Song to pit the Northern Huns in Duyeze and force him to repair in Duyeze for three days.
As a pioneer, Fu Xie slowly pulled his spear from the neck of a Xianbei detective, wiped the blood from his face, and although he had tried very hard to strangle the Xianbei detective he encountered, he still fled back to Wuyi Village a little.
"Your Excellency!"
Xianbei Tanqi has not yet approached the big tent of the punishment, he was stopped, helpless to shout loudly, he is also clever, knowing that something big has happened, rude some not only no fault but also meritorious, but I don't understand, these Northern Huns have a good house to live in, they have to live in tents.
Soon, the uneasy Torturer recruited him.
"What?"
Because he hadn't slept well all night, his mental state was a little sluggish, and he asked a little weakly
"My lord, I encountered the army of the Han Dynasty more than thirty miles outside the wall."
Hearing this, his eyes kicked and he stood up violently, and a strong sense of crisis erupted in his heart, a feeling he had felt once when he was a child when he was alone with wolves.
"How many centaurs?!"
"About 3,000 people"
Boom~
The pale face of the torturer sat down.
Three thousand men and horses are not much, but this is just an independent wandering Han army, or the vanguard of most of the Han army, he can't say for the time being, but it is certain that they are in trouble.
"Get out! Summoning the Golden Castle! ”
The heart is like numbness, and he is too lazy to toss the routine operation of rewarding and appeasing people's hearts, and directly ordered someone to summon the Northern Hun generals who were also left behind.
Soon, Jin Chengju, who was carrying a bow and a knife, got into the tent where he was tortured.
"My lord, but what happened?"
"A Han army was found outside the Saiwai, and you personally led three hundred soldiers and horses from our clan headquarters out of the village to investigate! It is necessary to find out whether there is a large part of the Han army in the grassland! ”
Jin Cheng nodded solemnly, although he didn't rely on his brain to eat, but if Wuyi Village was lost, he still understood what the consequences would be.
After Jin Cheng left, he was even more uneasy in his heart, and there was always a feeling of sharpness on his back.
"Someone! Prepare the letter eagle and order all Xianbei Qiang Hu to reorganize the soldiers and horses and prepare for battle! ”
....
Two hours later, the hands and feet of the torturer standing in the arrow tower in the north of Wuyi Village were cold, and cold sweat broke out, and a large uniform black spot appeared in the grassland in the north. The first part of the army and horses formed a triangular shape to lead the vanguard, and the next eight phalanxes were not close or far behind.
The army of the Han family, the elite!
The punishment made a judgment in an instant, and when he saw that Jin Chengji, who was sent out by himself, only led dozens of horses into Wuyi Village, he immediately roared
"Send the letter eagle, seal the gate of the wall, and prepare for battle!"
The Northern Huns who got the order immediately scattered the prepared letter eagles, turned their heads and joined their troops with their own knives and axels, the eagle training or something is just a sideline, and the Hun warriors are his main job!
However, before the eagle could flutter a few times, it was shot by a crossbow arrow in mid-air, and it fell diagonally.
The rat who was cowering in the dark corner pursed his lips dissatisfiedly, he hadn't used a crossbow for a long time, and his technique was a lot rusty. After glancing left and right, and seeing that no one found him, he immediately buried the crossbow in his hand in the ground, bowed his waist and touched the tent of the Northern Hun falconryman, and took out his crossbow and shot it directly against the head of the last letter eagle.
He can guarantee that he has not been discovered, but he does not dare to guarantee that no one will find the letter eagle that fell in mid-air, so it is better to be cautious and kill the letter eagle, and when the Northern Huns send messengers, someone will naturally intercept and kill them. Next, it's time to see if you can kill that adult with a cold arrow.
"Jincheng Jue, how many soldiers and horses does the Han army have?"
Seeing Jin Cheng Ji running towards him with a shocked face, he asked urgently, now that he was too far away, he couldn't tell how many Han troops there were.
"There are at least 50,000 soldiers and horses, all elite!"
Jin Chengju was also terrifying, and after avoiding Fu Xie's vanguard, he climbed over a high grassy hill and directly collided with most of the Han army. Then he was frantically chased and killed by a black-faced man, if it weren't for his own headquarters to stop him after breaking off, he might not have been able to return to Wuyi Village.
"Gather the headquarters and prepare to stop the Han army with all your might!"
Torture's face is gloomy, it's time to fight hard!
But Jin Cheng is a little puzzled, playing with his life? So many miscellaneous hus haven't died yet, why did they go to their Northern Xiongnu headquarters to play their lives? It's a big deal to abandon the village and go south to meet most of your own family, so there's no need to play with your life.
Seeing that Jin Chengju looked puzzled, he sighed and explained
"Judging from this situation, the Han family must have been prepared, and Zhangye must have heavy troops to block, and we still need to block this Han army here, in order to buy time to open the road to the Western Regions, otherwise once it is attacked from both sides, my Northern Xiongnu is in danger of annihilation!"
"Understood, this time, fight to the death!"
There was no slightest doubt in Jin Chengjue's eyes, and a ferocious momentum burst out violently, he did not lack desperate courage, or the entire Northern Xiongnu did not lack this thing, but it was worth it.
"Hold off for five days! Five days later, all the miscellaneous hus were expelled from the village, and then a fire burned down the Wuyi village! ”
He leaned into Jin Chengji's ear and whispered, his tone extremely cold.
Let the Zahu, who had no way to retreat, attack the Han army, plus the burning of Wuyi Village, at least buy them three days, enough for them to evacuate safely.
(Five days!) )
Jin Chengjue's hideous face softened a little when he heard this, although they were not good at defense, although it was difficult to hold on for five days with the sturdiness of Wuyi Village and 20,000 miscellaneous beards, it was still possible, after all, Hu Yanhao still valued his back road very much, and left five thousand headquarters.
An hour later, the Han army had approached ten miles outside Wuyi Village, began to set up camp, and built a ladder.
"Ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow, I want to carry out two feints first, so as to completely attract the enemy army to gather to the north of Wuyizhai and carry out a third strong attack in the evening."
After that, Liu Bei turned his head and looked at Fu Xie, the meaning was very clear, give you one night to contact Xianbei Neiying and the Fu family's private soldiers, whether you can take Wuyi Village in one fell swoop depends on yourself.
Fu Xie nodded, indicating that he understood.
"In that case, the first feint will be handed over to me!"
Sun Jian saw that Fu Xie himself had no opinion on this plan, so he immediately snorted lightly, preparing to catch a wave of battle exploits first, the third strong attack must be Fu Xie's did not run, people made great efforts, and the first credit for recovering Wuyi Village was definitely his.
Since Zhang Fei completely recovered, and his strength was even more stable, Sun Jian rarely hardened with Liu Bei anymore, as long as Liu Bei's arrangement did not harm his interests, he would generally implement it seriously. And Liu Bei is really quite good at grasping people's hearts, after Zhang Fei returned, Liu Bei, who had confidence, quickly suppressed his dissatisfaction with Sun Jian, but began to take the initiative to express goodwill and re-establish friendship with Sun Jian.
Liu Bei stretched out his smiling face, Sun Jian would not slap him no matter how much he dragged it, and after secretly setting up a small banquet a few times, the two began to call each other brothers again. Of course, neither side is sure what the other party is thinking, but on the surface it is indeed a kind look.
Liu Bei glanced at the generals when he heard this, and when he saw that no one objected, he immediately smiled
"In this case, it will be the first attack by Wentai! However, don't be too strong, if you take Wuyi Village in one fell swoop, Brother Nanrong will be ashamed. ”
The generals all chuckled when they heard this, and the solemn and dreary atmosphere before the war immediately dissipated a lot. In fact, if you want to talk about pressure or something, they really don't have it, the 70,000 army can capture Wuyi Village even if there is no internal response, it's just a matter of time and loss, but after all, it's going to war, and it is inevitable that the soldiers under their command will die in battle, and it is impossible for the generals to have a trace of heaviness in their hearts.
"If General Sun can really pull out the village in one fell swoop, it can also make our Han army less warlike, and the old man should be the first to congratulate."
Fu Xie didn't care about Liu Bei's ridicule, they had been together for so long, and everyone knew the roots. What's more, as the main general, he does have the obligation to relieve the tense and oppressive atmosphere before the big war, and the general behaves relaxed and confident, and the soldiers under his command will naturally be infected by anger.
As for the troops of the second feint, the generals didn't mention it, it was definitely Zhang Fei's, and Liu Bei was also the main general, so there were still some benefits. And just Zhang Fei's explosive appearance, who dares not to let him go to the battlefield, I am sure to talk to you every day.
"Big brother!"
Zhang Fei, who had just led Zhuojun Township Yong to demonstrate outside, hurried over as soon as he saw Liu Bei.
Seeing Zhang Fei's face full of excitement and looking like he could fight at any time, Liu Bei couldn't help but rejoice in his heart
"Third brother, don't worry, tomorrow you will carry out the second feint, but you are not allowed to win."
"Ahh
Zhang Fei's big eyes like bronze bells glared angrily, and he was finally able to go into battle to kill the enemy, but he was defeated but not allowed to win! If the person in front of him was not Liu Bei, he would definitely fan it with a big ear.
"Don't be anxious, this is a strategy, a big war is about to start, and you have to fight hard."
Liu Bei is also quite helpless, it is impossible not to let Zhang Fei play, but if this thing is killed one by one and turns a feint attack into a strong attack, it will be uncomfortable.
"Good life remember, tomorrow to fight, don't show your strength, just rush and kill, don't spoil the big thing!"
Liu Bei grabbed Zhang Fei's wrist and told him carefully.
Wuyi Village
After listening to the report of the falcon trainer, his face was full of murderous intent, and these miscellaneous beards seemed to be tired of life! Now he actually dares to pit his great Northern Huns! Look for death!
"Order, after dark, send three waves of Xianbei to act as messengers to the south. Jin Cheng Jue, you immediately arrange the shadows near the south gate and see which tribe is so bold! ”
It's a pity that Jin Chengju personally squatted near the south gate for a night, and did not see a Xianbei person go out to attack and kill the messenger. Lao Yu didn't make a move at all, and it was the private soldiers of the Fu family who had been monitoring Wuyi Village.
"Lao Yu, those miscellaneous pieces squatted outside the south gate all night, hahaha."
After the rat got into the tent, the thief laughed sneeringly.
Lao Yu also has the corners of his mouth upturned, this is autumn, and the weather is very cold.
"Spread the news, just say that the Han army sent 100,000 troops to attack Wuyi Village, intending to annihilate the Northern Xiongnu!"
"Rest assured"
The rat cleaned a chicken leg in one bite, turned his head and got out of the tent, he still had a lot of work to do, and he couldn't delay.
