Chapter 100: Three Choices...... [Ask for Votes, Ask for Recommendation Votes!] 】
As Dong Zhuo expected, Jiang Xiaobai, who had just won two battles, was quite proud, but he did not get carried away.
After setting up camp with his back to the Malian River, Jiang Xiaobai issued a military order, and the main force of the 30,000 Han army was waiting for him, using the iron-blooded army under the command of Cheng Yuanzhi as a blade, and constantly went to the enemy camp outside the quail city to harass him.
The soldiers responsible for harassing the enemy army were all equipped with enhanced crossbow arrows and good horses, led by Zhang Quan, and more than 1,000 cavalry relied on their high mobility to disturb the enemy.
Zhang Quan is the captain of the team that is missing from heaven and earth, and he is also the first old man to follow Jiang Xiaobai, he has good strength, leading more than 1,000 elite horsemen, and in just a few days, he has become a thorn in Han Sui's side and a thorn in the flesh.
It was really Zhang Quan who was too slippery, couldn't catch it, couldn't hit it, he led more than 1,000 elite cavalry, and didn't provoke the main force of the anti-army, just operated on the periphery of the anti-army's camp.
In this way, the anti-army garrisons will become blind and deaf, as if they were isolated cities.
In the face of the intrusion of Zhang Quan's subordinates, Han Sui was so angry that he was like thunder, but he was helpless, and it was actually more than 1,000 soldiers led by Zhang Quan, all of whom were selected from more than 10,000 people after months of training in Bishan.
These people are well-equipped, coupled with the eight hundred good horses that Dong Zhuo gave to Jiang Xiaobai at the beginning, they are the top match in all aspects, and they are second to none in the entire Han Empire.
In the face of such an opponent, Han Sui had a headache, but what he hated most was not Zhang Quan, who led the army to invade, but Jiang Xiaobai, who came up with such a rogue trick.
Han Suixiao practiced the military book, others couldn't see it, how could he not see it, Jiang Xiaobai ordered Zhang Quan to lead the elite cavalry to harass the camp, but he was actually setting off smoke bombs.
Although the sentry posts outside the camp were all devoured by Zhang Quan's subordinates, there were more than 40,000 people under Han Sui's command, and Zhang Quan's intrusion was like a blind man touching an elephant, and it was difficult to shake the foundation.
However, the elephant could not be shaken, but the blind man's hands were always on the elephant's legs, as if they were stuck in the throat.
Because Han Sui didn't know that Jiang Xiaobai would be interested in it one day, he was unwilling to continue to touch tepidly with his hands, but instead used his whole body to pounce......
The more than 1,000 elite cavalry led by Zhang Quan is like that hand, which is not to be feared, but the main force of the 30,000 Han army under Jiang Xiaobai, Han Sui has to guard against it, so in the face of Zhang Quan's incursion, Han Sui did not dare to be careless, and he asked the whole army to be vigilant at all times to prevent the main force of the Han army from raiding the camp.
However, Zhang Quan led the elite cavalry to harass and scold outside the camp every day, and those generals under Han Sui's command did not say anything, but in their hearts they were extremely dissatisfied with Han Sui's orders.
And always vigilant, but the Han army always only shouted and scolded outside the camp, and never exceeded half a step, which made the vigilance of those generals under Han Sui's command gradually relaxed.
It wasn't until half a month later that Han Sui's subordinates completely relaxed their vigilance, and in the face of the Han army who would come to the camp every day to scold, they turned a deaf ear, and they didn't even want to take a look.
At this time, if the main force of 30,000 Han troops suddenly appeared behind the more than 1,000 Han troops who were scolding, and then launched a fierce attack, the soldiers under the command of Han Sui would inevitably suffer heavy losses.
Han Sui knew this, but he was helpless, Jiang Xiaobai was a conspiracy, that is, to use Zhang Quan as a guise to release smoke and confuse the soldiers under his command.
"The only way now is to withdraw our troops and leave Anding County."
Outside the city, Han Sui looked at the Quail City not far ahead, he sighed deeply, Jiang Xiaobai was even more calm than he imagined, he knew that this was the case, he should have attacked the Quail City in the first place.
However, this time is different from the past, at the beginning, Quail City was in Han Sui's pocket, and it was at his fingertips, but now he didn't dare to send troops to attack Quail City, because Jiang Xiaobai behind him was still eyeing him.
"Withdraw!"
When Han Sui ordered the withdrawal of the troops, the soldiers under his command were confused, why the army had besieged the quail city for more than two months, why they suddenly ordered the withdrawal of the army.
Regarding the doubts of the generals, Han Sui had no intention of explaining, he didn't dare to spend any more time with Jiang Xiaobai, Jiang Xiaobai was like holding a knife against his heart, and he didn't know when he would use force to stab this knife into his heart.
When Han Sui led his 40,000 men to evacuate from outside the city of Quail and prepared to leave Anding County and withdraw into Anyang County in the southwest, Jiang Xiaobai, who was in the camp of the Han army on the bank of the Malian River, received the news that he led the army to evacuate.
"Jiang Ye, the enemy really took the initiative to withdraw his troops!"
In the handsome tent, Wang Lin looked at Jiang Xiaobai adoringly, Jiang Xiaobai was simply divine, he said half a month ago that Han Sui would withdraw his troops in half a month, in his opinion, those rebels outside Quail City had an advantage, and the terrain outside the camp was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so there was no reason to retreat.
When Jiang Xiaobai said this, he didn't avoid Dong Zhuo, so not only Wang Lin, but also Dong Zhuoji's subordinates, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, no one believed what Jiang Xiaobai said, and they all felt that he was talking at night.
"The withdrawal of troops is inevitable, if I were Han Sui, maybe I would have withdrawn long ago." Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.
"Why?" Wang Lin asked.
Jiang Xiaobai raised his eyelids lightly, he glanced at Wang Lin, and immediately smiled: "Those soldiers under Han Sui's command should have similar thoughts as you, and they don't understand why Han Sui withdrew his troops!" ”
"It's very simple, if he doesn't withdraw his troops, I will lead the army to attack, Zhang Quan led the elite cavalry to harass for half a month, and has long let those rebels slack off their guard, I will lead the main force of the Han army to raid, and it will be easy to break the geographical advantage you said earlier."
"Losing the geographical advantage, what is Han Sui's army afraid of? However, in that case, if you want to completely annihilate the rebel army outside the quail city, the Han army will inevitably pay a lot of price. ”
Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said: "I don't want to pay such a big price, so you are wrong, it is not that Han Sui took the initiative to withdraw the army, but that I am forcing him to withdraw the army!" ”
While speaking, Jiang Xiaobai looked down at the sand table in front of him, and he pulled up the flag that was inserted outside the quail city and symbolized Han Sui and reinserted it into Hanyang County.
"Han Sui wants to lead the army to withdraw from Anding and retreat to Hanyang County, there are only three roads for him to choose, the first choice is for him to lead the army along the banks of the Jingshui River, cross the Boluo Valley, and enter Hanyang County."
"The second option is to enter the narrow and narrow mountain of Mt. Shote, and after crossing the mountain, you can go to Wajeongseong, and from Wattingseong to Hanyang-gun."
"The third option, and the nearest road, is in the southwest of Quail City, which is Longxian, between Quail City and Longxian, is the endless Pingliang Mountain Range, through which Hanyang County can be reached directly, but at the end of the Pingliang Mountain Range, that is, at the junction of Hanyang County and Anding County, is the Jiequan Pavilion, where 20,000 Han troops are stationed."
"If Han Sui chooses the road closest to Hanyang County, after leaving the Pingliang Mountain Range, he will face the 20,000 Han troops of Jiequan Pavilion!"
